Dominate South Asia

The strong horses, pulling the equipment, passed through the removed roadblocks quickly. This was the main traffic route of the Bagram base, and Durrani had to take the risk to attack here.

The battle went smoothly. The heavy rain and thunder covered the gunshots, and the base in the distance was still asleep.

The twelve-tube rocket launcher passed here quickly and continued to move forward. After walking another two kilometers, they stopped.

The range of the rocket launcher is 8.5 kilometers. From here, it is just right to attack the base there, and it is convenient to escape. Although Muhammad left Durrani with the order before departure that Durrani could abandon these rocket launchers and ride on horses to escape quickly in times of crisis, Durrani was reluctant to give up these rocket launchers. These are the three magic weapons of guerrilla warfare! Last winter, a rocket launcher was dragged to destroy a Soviet outpost.

A rocket launcher crew needs five people, but now, Durrani's guerrillas only have two people to operate. In order to increase the intensity of the attack, they brought all the rocket launchers.

Now, the twenty rocket launchers are lined up, the tail support rods are lowered, and they start to load the ammunition quickly.

The ammunition box carried by another horse was opened, and 107mm rockets were stuffed into the barrel. In the heavy rain, everyone was soaked, but they were still full of energy.

In front is Bagram, an important military base of the Soviets in the north! Dozens of planes and several military camps are scattered here!

The focus of the attack is those planes. Due to the limited hangars in the base, although it is raining, many planes are placed on the apron in the open air. Those precious fighter planes are the first target of the attack.

Durrani's big hand wiped the rain along his cheek, and he asked one by one: "Are you ready?"

"Ready!" After a long period of training, they can operate these rocket launchers quickly.

After a turn, Durani opened his voice: "Let the Soviets know how powerful we are! Fire!"

"Boom, boom, boom." In the heavy rain, flames burst out from the tail of the multiple rocket launcher. As the rocket engine ignited, the rocket flew out of the barrel and flew forward quickly.

"Swish, swish." Across the rain curtain and across the sky, rockets flew one after another towards the opposite side.

Twelve rocket launchers will form a killing surface covering hundreds of square meters, and twenty rocket launchers will have more than 200 rockets, enough to cover the entire apron!

The night is still dark, with only the tail flames of the rockets dotting the black sky. The rain is still falling, and the rockets are flying accurately in the heavy rain.

"Boom!" The first rocket, dragging a tongue of fire, landed on the open space beside the apron. When the warhead touched the ground, the entire warhead exploded instantly, and countless shrapnel splashed.

"Boom!" The second rocket then flew to a place only two or three meters away from a MiG-23. The fragments of the rocket hit the aluminum alloy skin of the MiG-23, and countless holes appeared on the skin instantly.

"Boom!" Another rocket accurately hit a female deer, and the female deer was instantly surrounded by a ball of fire.

The guerrillas didn't care to look at the scene covered by the rocket. When the rockets in the rocket launcher were fired in order, they immediately began to reload.

The Soviets must not be able to react in this first round of attack, and it is absolutely impossible to attack a second time afterwards, so Durrani seized this opportunity and fired at least two rounds!

Two people worked together, one picked up the rocket from the box, and the other stuffed the rocket into the launch tube. They did it very quickly.

Two minutes later, when they looked up, the Bagram base had turned into a sea of ​​fire.

"Three degrees to the right." Durrani shouted, "Target, Soviet military camp!"

Muhammad instilled the idea that if you want to fight, you should fight the Soviets' living forces. What are living forces? For example, their people, such as their fighter planes!

Attack the runway? It's useless. After the attack, they can still repair it. Hitting a plane costs millions of rubles. Hitting people, one death, pensions, etc. will make the Soviet Union bear a heavy burden.

Seeing their base being bombed, the Soviets, after a brief chaos, quickly dispatched half of the team guarding here. They were going to chase the guerrillas who appeared from nowhere. They wanted to catch the guerrillas and punish them!

Just when they woke up from their sleep with weapons and ran out in the rain in a daze, the second round of rockets flew over again.

When they saw these rockets, everyone opened their eyes wide, Katyusha!

The guerrillas were a group of insurgent terrorists. They could only fire a few rockets at most at a time. There were no rockets like now. There were hundreds of rockets! Moreover, there were more rockets coming from behind!

After a brief surprise, they immediately reacted: "Dodge!"

The second wave of attacks came towards them. They went back to the barracks and wanted to find a safe place, but then the rockets broke through the roof and fell into them.

"Boom! Boom!" More than 50 of the more than 200 rockets missed the target, and the remaining more than 100 accurately hit the Soviet barracks, causing terrible casualties.

"Quick, retreat!" Durrani shouted.

When they came, fifty horses dragged twenty rocket launchers, and the remaining thirty-odd horses were carrying ammunition. Now, the ammunition has been fired, the empty boxes have been abandoned, and the remaining rocket launchers are being quickly dismantled by the shooters.

The 107 rocket launcher can become a weapon for the guerrillas because it is powerful enough, easy to maneuver, and flexible to disassemble and assemble.

The three groups of gun barrels were disassembled, and each two groups were placed on the back of a horse. The heavy rain cooled the gun barrels, and they were no longer hot. The weight of the two groups of gun barrels was much lighter than two ammunition boxes. The empty gun racks that were dismantled were left with only the two tires and a few steel beams, which also became lighter.

The guerrillas pulled the horses and quickly disappeared in the heavy rain. The horses neighed briskly and followed the guerrillas to trot and retreat to the north.

The heavy rain was still falling, and the Bagram base fell into panic.

If it were normal, the base here would never be attacked by guerrillas. The sentries around it were well guarded. Once something happened, they would call the police, and the patrol team in the base would arrive quickly. Moreover, the helicopters in the base often patrolled around the base, and the vicinity was absolutely safe.

But now, they neglected it. The Jalalabad city area has surrounded the guerrillas in northern Afghanistan and has killed hundreds of people. Those bodies lying around outside the city are the guerrillas who have always given them a headache!

They can rest easy, and their defense has been relaxed. Moreover, due to the deployment of troops, this place was originally empty, coupled with heavy rain and darkness, all of which caused them to suffer painful losses.

The next morning, the heavy rain finally stopped, and the water level of the Kabul River rose two or three meters. Because the upper reaches are located in the mountains, the river water often rises suddenly, that is, a flood, breaking through the banks on both sides and rushing into the fields.

Along with the raging river, an astonishing news reached Jalalabad: Bagram Air Force Base was attacked!

Dorofeyev's face turned green. Listening to the report of the signalman, he couldn't believe his ears. Could the guerrillas have the ability to split themselves and run hundreds of kilometers from the encirclement to attack Bagram?

That's impossible. In other words, there is another guerrilla with strong combat effectiveness!

Six MiG-23BNs, thirteen Hinds, and four Su-25s were all destroyed. The remaining aircraft hid in the hangar and escaped by luck. In the base next to them, more than 300 brave Soviet soldiers were blown to pieces by rockets, and more than 200 were injured. The remaining soldiers of the half regiment lost nearly half.

Such a loss was unbearable for Dorofeyev. He would face the terrible anger of Moscow. No matter how beautiful the battle in Jalalabad was, it could not cover up his mistakes. More than 500 soldiers were killed and injured at one time. This was the first time such a heavy loss since the war began!

"Obviously, there is another guerrilla!" Chief of Staff Belgrade said: "Division Commander, we must mobilize a team to quickly return to the rescue, search for this guerrilla, and then annihilate it!"

Dorofeyev looked at him with some idiotic eyes: "It will take us five or six hours to mobilize the troops back. Do you think the guerrillas will still be waiting for us there?"

Of course not. The guerrillas had already entered the mountains and disappeared without a trace. Belgrade certainly knew it, but... if he didn't do this, what other rescue measures would there be? Moscow's anger would definitely implicate the people present. Who would become the scapegoat?

"What should we do now?" Belgrade continued to ask. Since the division commander disagreed with his opinion, let's see if the division commander has any better way.

"Attack immediately! Completely wipe out the guerrillas in the encirclement!" Dorofeyev said.

Attack immediately? Today is the third day, and only three groups of Soviets have been released, totaling thirteen. There are still eighteen Soviets temporarily controlled by the guerrillas, including Irina and the hospital director.

If we attack, the guerrillas inside will be desperate and may kill all the hostages.

"Division Commander, this seems a bit inappropriate, right?" Belgrade whispered.

"Victory, we can only explain to Moscow with a complete victory." Dorofeyev said: "This is a must! Order the soldiers to prepare for battle within half an hour. After half an hour, all troops will enter the encirclement and prepare for street fighting! Note that every Afghan may be a guerrilla!"
