Chapter 684: Each Has a Future

Not all people are like the Buryat quartermaster, after all, people are different, the Buryat quartermaster has a good face, and he himself belongs to the kind of person who is good at drilling camp relations, and his good ability to observe words and looks, see people and talk nonsense can make him like a fish in water in relationships, which is also the basis of his success.

But this is not necessarily the case with others, such as the deputy commander of the 444 Infantry Regiment, Colonel Kravchenko.

The depressed colonel is from Ukraine, his father also fought against the Germans, but died in Berlin, the colonel relied on the identity of the martyr's orphan to get a lot of help, successfully completed high school and was admitted to the military school, and then all the way up to the major.

At that time, Kravchenko was a young man in the Moscow Military District, promising and promising, and if nothing else, he would marry a well-connected wife and retire after becoming a colonel or general in the military district.

But no surprise is impossible, especially in places like Moscow, where his father's old comrades-in-arms lost ground due to factional strife and were sent to Siberia to hold important positions in name only.

And Kravchenko was also affected, he was supposed to be in Moscow every day, he was sent to Central Asia, either eating sand or watching camels baring their teeth, not to mention how bitter life was.

The major had a miserable time until the war broke out in Afghanistan and he volunteered to sign up, and he escaped from the sand nest.

After coming to Afghanistan, relying on his combat bravery, Kravchenko was promoted all the way to colonel, and his position changed from an infantry battalion commander to a deputy regiment commander.

After the previous regiment commander had to retire from active duty and return to China for non-combat reasons, Kravchenko felt that he would definitely be able to take over the other party's duties and become the commander of the 444th regiment.

But that thought that a guy from Moscow was parachuted in to be the head of the regiment.

Kravchenko, who had no hope of promotion, suddenly felt hopeless about his future, he had served so hard in Afghanistan for so long, bullets flew through his head countless times, and there were several bullet holes on his body

As the commander of the regiment, after he arrived in Afghanistan, he came to the station of the 444th regiment once, and the rest of the time, he stayed in the place where Kabul couldn't be bombed.

And the commissar of the 444th regiment was able to help Kravchenko maintain his work at first, until the BTR armored vehicle where the commissar was located was destroyed by an anti-tank mine.

As a result, the remaining commander of the 444th regiment is only Kravchenko, and the others are either injured and hospitalized, or killed in battle, or simply do not come.

However, this also greatly facilitated Kravchenko, allowing him to turn the 444th regiment into his own hall.

After becoming the supreme existence of the 444th Regiment, Kravchenko's mind immediately became active, because the garrison area of the 444th Regiment was remote, and the colonel did not stop doing anything, and directly became the king of the mountain.

The colonel's regiment controlled seven towns and thirty-seven rural settlements, and controlled a population of about 40,000.

The 444 regiment controls everything here, taxes, administration, and even the local people's weddings and funerals have to be presided over by the Soviets, don't ask why you don't find local religious people, first ask the AK74 of the 444 regiment if you agree.

Colonel Karavchenko lived a shy life day and night, and he built his luxurious villa in a valley with beautiful mountains and rivers, and had seventeen Afghan servants to work for him, six maids to serve him, and three eighteen years old who were responsible for sleeping with him at night.

With such a corrupt life, his subordinates naturally follow suit, and the officers don't dare to make a big fuss, but it's no problem to have an underground lover or something.

If the 444th Regiment is just a matter of style, then it will be fine, but when the slaaneous atmosphere blows, there will be problems in other aspects, just like the dam is washed away by a flood, the flood will not only destroy a gap, but will destroy the dam as a whole, and the first thing that the 444th Regiment will be affected is the daily duty and training tasks of the company.

As a garrison, the 444th Regiment also shouldered the tasks of patrolling and standing guard to check entry and exit personnel, but as the officers were not at their posts every day, they went to hang out with women and get drunk in bars, so the people below began to relax and fish in execution.

After the patrol team walked out of the barracks, they turned left to find a small restaurant or a place in the mountains to start a picnic, everyone ate and drank enough and then slept beautifully.

And the soldiers in charge of road traffic vigilance and patrol are even more blatant began to sell tickets, whether it is Afghan currency or Soviet currency, in short, anyone who comes, as long as they buy tickets, they can go through the green channel through the security check, not only can they be exempted from inspection, but they can even make an appointment.

None of the Afghan guerrillas could have imagined that the Soviets would be able to do such a thing, and a Taji armed force in the northwest had paid 5,000 roubles to pass at 3 o'clock in the middle of the night, and they were going to transport a large cargo into the interior of Afghanistan.

It stands to reason that the Soviet sentries should have stopped and inspected such suspicious goods at such a suspicious time, but the non-commissioned officer who led the team directly waved his hand and resolutely let it go after getting five thousand rubles in cash and the roast leg of mutton sent by the other party.

Then the Soviet soldiers feasted on the sidelines and turned a blind eye to the partisans.

Subsequently, the guerrillas bombarded military airfields in the interior with rocket artillery, damaging one Mi-8 helicopter and four ground crews.

And this was even a small episode of the 444th regiment, because Colonel Karavchenko's appetite was growing, and the gains of the past were no longer enough to satisfy him.

He wants more!

And when the 444th regiment caught an Afghan who was suspected of being a spy, during the interrogation, Colonel Kravchenko was even more astonishing.

"How much can I get if I let you go?"

Such remarks made the guerrilla spies who were ready to be tortured stupid, and what surprised him even more was when he wrote to his companions, asking them to send $100,000 to the Soviets to buy his freedom.

The guerrillas, who had just received the money from the Saudi benefactor's father, did not hesitate to give out the money, and when Colonel Kravchenko got the money, he really released the spy and warned the other party by the way.

"The next time I catch you, it's not a matter of 100,000 dollars!"
