Dominate South Asia

Sayyaf, a Pashtun, first founded the Afghan Mujahideen Islamic Alliance. Later, it merged with several other organizations to form an organization of the same name. It is based in Peshawar and directs the fight of the mujahideen in Afghanistan.

Although the alliance was a loose organization when it was first established, Sayyaf certainly had more than that in mind. A qualified politician must have a longer-term vision. He had already been planning the post-war situation.

As a special envoy of the alliance, Nicobuddin went to contact the guerrillas. This was actually a move by Sayyaf to unify the leadership power of these guerrillas.

Unfortunately, Nicopudin failed and fell into the Soviet conspiracy. In the end, he became the instructor named Mhamad!

Sayyaf listened to the noisy words of the people below and looked outside the tent. This was the largest refugee camp. Many jihadists were trained as soldiers here and then sent back to Afghanistan to fight.

And now, the reputation of Mhamad's Free Army has spread here, and many young guys want to join this Free Army.

The reputation of the Free Army of Afghanistan is growing, but the alliance has become less popular. The strength of the alliance is also getting smaller and smaller. Many guerrillas have gone to join the Free Army.

"I think we should just kill that Mhammad! He is a scourge!" another person yelled.

"No, he is an instructor sent by Pakistan. If we kill him and are discovered by Pakistan, it will cause strong dissatisfaction. We are now completely dependent on Pakistan's support for us, and we must not offend Pakistan!" said another voice.

He is an instructor sent by Pakistan! Upon hearing this voice, Sayyaf immediately patted the table: "There is a way!"

"Bang!" A huge noise came from the table, and everyone present was stunned: "What can I do?"

"I immediately went to see Chief of Staff Mushaaf!" Sayyaf said: "All the instructors withdrew from Afghanistan last year, except for instructor Mhammad! I went to ask them to transfer Mushaaf back. Instructor Hamad! Our guerrillas have grown up and don’t need instructors anymore. Instructor Hamad has been fighting in Afghanistan for so long. It’s time to return to Pakistan and enjoy a comfortable life.”

After saying that, Sayyaf said to a person below: "Harris, you come with me, that instructor Mhammad has gone to your guerrillas."

After hearing Sayyaf's words, everyone was stunned at first, and then clapped their hands and applauded.

good! Mhamad is a Pakistani and has nothing to do with Afghanistan. He is just an instructor sent there. At that time, Sayyaf made a request to the Peshawar Military District, and the guerrilla group where Mhammad went was affiliated with Harris. of organization.

On the surface, this is completely reasonable. It is normal for Pakistan to call back the instructors it sent. At that time, it was only instructors, not leaders.

The cold wind outside was blowing loudly. The autumn of 1982 came a little early.

Facing the cold wind, Mhamad returned to Peshawar. Remembering that the last time he came back was a year ago, Mhammad was a little excited. After more than a year, he finally achieved success. The guerrillas of all ethnic groups in northern Afghanistan were They united to form the Free Afghan Army and fought against the Soviets together. This was a good start. The deep friendships forged on the battlefield could resolve the hatred between tribes over the years.

The military district headquarters was still in downtown Peshawar. When Mhammad walked to the gate, he took out his ID.

After reading the certificate, the sentry saluted Mhammad and said, "Welcome, Lion of Panjshir."

Lions of Panjshir? Hamad was stunned for a moment. Are you talking about yourself?

Taking steps forward and with questions in mind, Mhammad walked into the military district headquarters and walked towards the familiar chief of staff's office.

"Report." Mhamad shouted. After receiving the consent from inside, Mhamad pushed the door open and entered.

"Welcome back, Lion of Panjshir." Mushaaf stood up from his seat and said to Mhamad.

Lions of Panjshir, are you talking about yourself? Mhammad touched his nose and said: "Report, Army Second Lieutenant Mhammad, come to report. I have been fighting in the mountains of Afghanistan for a year, please give me instructions."

"Colonel Mhamad, your superiors are very satisfied with your combat in Afghanistan this year." Mushaaf said: "You are brought back this time to be rewarded."

Commendation? Wait, Colonel? Hamad was stunned for a moment: "Chief of Staff, are you wrong? I am a second lieutenant."

Above the second lieutenant are lieutenant, captain, major, lieutenant colonel, and then colonel, which is a full five levels behind!

How could he be promoted from second lieutenant to colonel? Impossible, absolutely impossible.

"Yes, you are a colonel." Mushaaf said: "In view of your heroic fighting in the mountains of northern Afghanistan, your superiors have specially awarded you the rank of colonel. This time you are called back, this is the commendation, and at the same time... you are appointed to the Peshawar Military District. The chief of staff, which is my current position, will be yours soon."

Colonel? Chief of Staff of Peshawar Military District? Hamad's brain didn't react for the time being. What's going on?

"This is your promotion and commendation order." Mushaaf said and took out a document.

Hamad took it and opened it, looking at the handwriting inside. It was handwritten, and at the last signature, he saw a name like a dragon and a phoenix.

Zia-ul-Haq, this name seems very familiar, Mhammad thought again in his mind, wait, isn't this the name of the President of Pakistan?

This is a tough soldier. In 1977, he launched a military coup and became the president of Pakistan. Although the position of the president was not the right one, he implemented correct economic policies and Pakistan's economy has improved in recent years. It has improved significantly, becoming the richest region in South Asia and gaining public support.

"This is a commendation order signed by the president himself." Mushaaf said: "In recent years, you have been the first. Now, the entire army is following your example. You are the glory of our Pakistani soldiers!"

It is very difficult for ordinary troops to be promoted from level to level, but it is different when it comes to the battlefield. With military exploits, promotion is easy. But people like Mhammad unified the guerrillas in northern Afghanistan and worked together. It was even rarer to fight against the Soviets. President Zia-ul-Haq was very satisfied with Hamad and promoted him to colonel and assigned him to the Peshawar Military Region.

A military region can only have one chief of staff. He became the chief of staff. What about Mushaaf in front of him?

"Chief of Staff, what about you?" Hamad asked.

"I will become the commander of the military region." Mushaaf said: "Thanks to you, I have been promoted once. The original commander has also been promoted once and returned to Islamabad."

Hamad's mind gradually became clearer, and the doubts that had been popping up in his mind just now became clearer and clearer.

"The troops in the mountains of Afghanistan are waiting for my command. If I take over the position of chief of staff here, what will happen there?" Mhammad asked.

If Mhamad is given the choice, although the position of chief of staff of the military region is dazzling, he still wants to fight with those soldiers, and Mhamad cannot leave there.

"Colonel Mhamad, you were sent there in the name of an instructor. Now, those from the Afghan Mujahideen Islamic Alliance have made a request to us to transfer you back as an instructor." Mushaaf said: "From Procedurally, this is completely legal.”

I see! Immediately, Hamad realized that it was those people who were causing trouble!

"Chief of Staff, the situation there is very chaotic. Now only I can deal with those complicated tribal issues." Mhammad said: "If I return to Peshawar, it will become a mess again."

In the past, Mhamad might have had a good impression of that alliance and thought they were the heroes who rescued Afghanistan. But now, Mhammad has completely understood that the top leaders of the alliance are just conspirators. Not even a politician.

They saw that they had organized the Free Army, and they couldn't wait to take this army back into their arms.

This is absolutely not possible! It’s not that I am greedy for power, but I don’t want to see the war in Afghanistan end forever and all the Afghan people suffer as it will in later generations.

"In the war with India eleven years ago, one of my good brothers died on the battlefield." Mushaaf said: "He once mentioned that he had a younger brother named Mhammad- Kamaran.”

Mhammad didn't know why Mushaaf said this, but he knew that that person was his brother. He inherited all the memories. The bearded brother died in India. On the battlefield.

"At that time, I promised him that I would take good care of his younger brother. Unfortunately, I didn't find him until two years ago. At that time, he had already been sent as an instructor." Mushaaf's words were very calm, as if he was It was the same as telling a story that had nothing to do with him, but he would never forget that Muhammad Kamaran threw him down and lay on top of him. The shell exploded just a few meters away, and Muhammad was covered in blood. If it weren't for him, he would have died long ago.

The last promotion and this callback were all recommended by Mushaaf. After meeting with the leaders of the alliance, Mushaaf made up his mind.

"You have shed a lot of blood for Afghanistan. You have become a hero, Mhamad. You will rise steadily in the Pakistani army and continue to rise." Mushaaf said: "You already have Enough capital, Mhamad, I promised your brother that I will take good care of you."
