Since early July, Afghanistan, which has been fighting for nine years for nine years, entered a high-risk period of conflict. Like previous years, summer is the most chaotic and turbulent season in Afghanistan. Afghans seem to be born to rebels. Armed forces from all over the country have emerged from the mountains, and the Northern Alliance has frequently attacked Amanula's Central Army and Soviet Army. By early September, on the defense line called the Northern Defense Line by Amanula, there was a large firefight of tens of thousands of people, but they were all defeated by the reinforcements of the Soviet army.

At this time, Amanula was the most nervous. The last time China and Britain promoted the coup were still vivid in his mind, so he went to ask for help from the Soviet military officers in Afghanistan.

The anti-counterfeiting movement also affected the Soviet army stationed in Afghanistan. The ambassador to Afghanistan did not come back after returning to China for his work half a year ago, and he did not know whether he was dead or alive. Minister of Foreign Affairs of Motolov probably forgot that there was still Afghanistan, so the military officer and garrison commander of the regiment who had just been transferred from the Ural Military Region actually became the highest official of the Soviet army stationed in Kabul.

The commander of the regiment was 37 years old. He was originally the instructor and political commissar of a certain company in Ural. He was appointed here for reporting and exposing the leadership. Although his methods of being promoted were not very open and honest, his loyalty to the party was completely unrestrained. When he learned about Amanula's intention, he immediately slapped his chest and said that he would immediately draw troops to reinforce the northern defense line and send planes to the northern no-fly zone to investigate.

But the pilot Lieutenant Colf hated this guy to death: "Comrade Commander, the Chinese have set up a no-fly zone in the north, and several aircraft have been driven and destroyed."

"Forget this quarrel of Comrade Erf, the heroic proletarian soldiers should not be afraid of intimidation, they cannot cover the sky with planes. Do you need to remember? 8. Slowly, the plaque of cold and cold?

Kolf had no choice but to pray secretly that he would not encounter enemy aircraft. Fortunately, their regiment just replaced the brand new I16 fighter, which has a maximum speed of 440 kilometers. Be careful to escape.

A few days later, two Iran 16 monoplane fighters took off from Kabul Airport and rushed to the northern mountains.

As a few experienced pilots, he knew that the no-fly zone was not that easy to break. In the past nine years, at least seventeen Soviet planes have been shot down in the no-fly zone. The worst thing is that since Moscow did not want to go to war with China, he secretly declared the losses. To put it simply, even if he dies, he will die in vain.

As soon as he entered the mountainous area, Kolf immediately lowered the highway, which scared the novice on the wingman that he thought something had happened. He rushed up and kept making gestures. Due to inconvenience in communication, the two planes almost collided. "This imperialist idiot." Kolf was so scared that he let out a cold sweat. After re-controlling his flying posture, he waved his hand with contempt to let him return to his original position.

The Iran 16 is a single-wing fighter developed by the Soviet Union. Most of the wings and fuselage are made of wood, with a short, thick and wild appearance and fast speed. Its firepower is weak and only 2 7.62mm machine guns. Of course, it also has many shortcomings, such as no radio, and tacit understanding and gestures when flying in formations, and signal guns are used when large formations. Moreover, it is very unstable, especially in areas such as Afghanistan where there are many mountains, sidewinds and severe spoilers. There have been many air dangers during training and several aircraft have been damaged.

Although it is not suitable for mountainous areas, Kolf has no choice. Because it is easy to find flying too high. What's worse is that from Kabul to Fazabad, the maximum range of Iran 16 is only 810 kilometers. The fuel consumption will increase at low altitude, so you can only go back and forth in a straight line, otherwise you may not be able to come back.

The two Yi 16s were flying carefully against the ridge. After about 30 minutes, Kolf began to worry about fuel because the pointer of the oil gauge dropped very quickly. At this time, his wingman should have found that the remaining oil might not be able to go back. So he caught up and pointed at the sky, meaning that he could climb higher and save consumption by using the airflow.

Kolf didn't want to take risks, but the wingman he called "imperialist idiot" actually made a move to climb up without authorization, and had to step on the accelerator to catch up. It took six minutes for Yi 16 to climb up to 5,000 meters. It was these six minutes that Kolf could never return to Kabul. When he was chasing the wingman, two black spots suddenly appeared high in the northeast!

"Enemy plane!"

Kolf's gag wing reminded the wingman 14. Then he placed his finger on the machine gun button, shook the joystick quickly, hoping to reduce the height, using the mountain deep gorge to fight with the other party. But at this time, the wingman, who should be acting the same as him, was still climbing up dumbly, not knowing whether he was scared or wanted to seize the height. The two "Snakes" with the Chinese national emblem and silver wing logo on the wings also discovered Kolf, and immediately abandoned the auxiliary fuel tank, and rushed over like a rabbit hunting dog. "Damn it." Wolf was shocked by the other party's sprint speed. Although he could not know the specific numbers, it was obviously faster than he had known before.

He knew that this fighter named after the monster in the Shanhai Jing had already been equipped with a new 1050 horsepower engine, and the earliest sail-wood models had been replaced by all-aluminum models, and the speed increased to 510 kilometers per hour. In the air combat, speed and flexibility are life, and the "Snake" is obviously higher than that of Yi 16 in these two aspects. Moreover, Chinese pilots are obviously veterans. They found that their opponents were unable to support each other in their states, so they immediately gave up the evasion of Kolf and made every effort to deal with the rising wingman.

Almost as soon as they met, two "snake-turned" eight 12.7mm machine guns penetrated the fuselage of the wingman. From Wolf's perspective, they saw tracer bullets behind him trained into a line of fire, and passed through the cockpit and wings ruthlessly. Then his wingman caught fire, smoke and fell down.

This scene made him tense all over his body. It was obvious that the opponent was faster than him and had stronger firepower, so he completely eliminated his mind of fighting and tried to escape against the ridge. But how could the two "Snakes" who had finally caught the opportunity to make meritorious service and let their prey leave? When the long aircraft rushed towards him, the wingman accelerated forward and used the speed advantage to block the escape route.

The "snakes" behind him kept firing, and fire lines were sprayed out from the wings. But Kolf was not easy to mess with. Although he was unable to fight back, he kept avoiding flight left and right. He also used the valley draft to sink many times, which also caused the opponent to waste a lot of bullets.

Before he knew it, the northern defense line controlled by the Central Armanula Army was less than 15 minutes away. At this time, the three aircraft chasing had already dropped to about 1,000 meters above sea level. Just when Wolf thought that the goddess of luck could escape, the "Snake" behind him suddenly fell down. Then, he flew closely against the mountain wall next to him and forced him to move forward, and then continued to turn back, forcing Wolf to rise.

The weakness of Yi 16's slow lifting was completely exposed at this moment. The wingman, who had been on standby for a long time, quickly rushed over from the flank. Wolf saw a flash of fire on the other side's wing, and his Yi 16's nose was blown into black smoke. He originally wanted to jump to escape, but before he could climb out of the cabin, the long aircraft that forced him to lift had already circled back. Four machine guns used half-armor-piercing incendiary bombs to sweep the cockpit.

Wolf didn't know that he could fly forward for five more minutes and escape back, I'm afraid the first classic air assault in the history of human war would have completely died.

Just as Wolf and the fighter plane crashed and exploded, one newly equipped Y-9 large transport aircraft landed at Fazabad Airport one after another. When this size was huge, with four 1,600 horsepower engines, each of which could "spray" a total of 86 fully armed Chinese airborne beasts landed in front of him, the soldiers of the Northern Afghan Army in the airport were thunderous.

When Long Yun walked out of the cabin, the two "snakes" that shot down the enemy plane had also landed. Afghan soldiers who heard the news surrounded the two pilots like a hero. It was not until the pilot returned to the command post to report the situation. The Afghan soldiers were busy with the air force ground crew again.

At this time, the airport was already on high alert, and there were warned soldiers everywhere. In the anti-aircraft artillery position, 2 85mm and 6 40mm anti-aircraft artillery targeted the sky, and the watchmen on the tower looked vigilant. On the left side of the position, there is a fleet of 36 Y-6 and 32 Y-3 transport aircraft. After obtaining control of the airport by the airborne battalion, they will transport two Northern Army regiments and one strengthening regiment to Kabul to the right. On the right, there are 44 "Snake" fighters of the Chinese Air Force, 16 white-shouldered warriors of the Afghan Northern Alliance, 22 "Ghost Cars" bombers and 22 twin-engine H-6 "Venus" bombers. They will be responsible for blocking and protecting tasks. At the end of the runway, except for the five Y-9 that just landed, they are the two most mysterious aircraft in this operation, 12 bird assault gliders and 22 Dapeng heavy gliders.

Both aircraft are wooden structures. The former can transport 15 airborne troops, the latter can transport 52 airborne troops or a 7.5-ton LZ33 "Hunter" 6-wheel armored vehicle. Moreover, they both have large open hatch doors that are convenient for entry and exit, and the latter's nose can also be wide to the left to facilitate large entry and exit.

Hundreds of ground crews began to conduct final inspections, and Afghan soldiers launched gasoline and bombs transported from Kashgar for several months. For this operation, Nadir Khan and the Northern Alliance Army also put out all their strength, not only completely blocking Fazabad ten days ago, but also recruiting soldiers from many tribes, causing the total number of coalition troops to skyrocket to 70,000.

The command post was set up in the Nadir Shashang Palace not far from the airport. When Long Yun arrived, it was already crowded with people. Tribal elders, officers from various troops, religious imams, Nadir Sha and Mei Sheng, who came to take charge in advance, made final deployment around the map and sand table.

"Brother Zhidan, what did they cheer just now?"

Nadirsha and others knew Long Yun, so they were very intimate when they saw him and even took the initiative to ask him to be the commander-in-chief. Only after finally getting rid of them did he have the opportunity to ask about the situation.

"Shot down two Soviet fighters," said Zhang Zhidan.

"Did the Soviets find it?" Long Yun's heart was tightened as he saw that the action was about to come. However, Zhang Zhidan was not nervous and said, "It should be caused by our attack during this period. In the past two months, we have deliberately set off an illusion to attack Kundus and Bagland, which has attracted the attention of Amanula and the Soviet army, so we should be here to investigate."

"Are you ready? When will you do it?" Long Yun breathed a sigh of relief and walked to Mei Sheng. The sand table filled with flags made him gradually excited. As a soldier, who doesn't want to make achievements? More than ten years of peace has already made many people impatient. Although there are occasional border conflicts, they are all small matters at the battalion level and are not worthy of their actions. But this time, the Military Intelligence Bureau, Air Force, Airborne Division, Asian Brigade, Afghan Northern Army, India-Mu Alliance, etc. were all involved. It was already a small-scale joint battle of multiple arms. More importantly, this small alliance not only strengthened the relationship between China and neighboring countries, but also gave the National Defense Force a chance to re-experience the long-lost multi-national joint combat.

"Everything is ready! The main Soviet army stationed at Kabul Airport has been attracted, leaving only one infantry regiment and an aviation regiment, with about one thousand people. There are still three thousand puppet troops loyal to Amanula here in the palace. Fei Wenhua led two Asian brigades, one division of the Northern Army and 16 tanks were on standby on the periphery of Bagland. In front of him were 10,000 puppet troops and two thousand Soviet troops." After Mei Sheng introduced the overall situation, he waved and called a tall and thin lieutenant colonel: "This is Dong Hao, the fifth phase of the Changsha Air Force Academy, and now the lieutenant colonel leader of the Second Airborne Division. He has led two reinforcement battalions to train at Yanshan simulation base for two months. This operation will be on his own. Dong Hao, introduce it to General Long."

"yes!"

Dong Hao, who had a big forehead, saluted and introduced the specific details of the operation to Long Yun and others: "The terrain of Afghanistan airport is open and there are no obvious tall buildings around it, which is very suitable for gliders to land. The first plan is to lead a commando to land directly on the airport runway. Then it is divided into four squads. The first team controls anti-aircraft artillery, the second team raids the dormitory and checkpoints, the third team is responsible for blowing up the arsenal, and the fourth team is alert and finds ways to get the vehicles. At the same time, the pilot will operate the machine guns on the glider to fire the plane to prevent it from being used by the enemy. After the plane is destroyed, they will release flash bombs and light up the runway to allow the Dapeng behind to land. After the 16 Dapengs land, we should have already grabbed enough trucks and can immediately divide the troops to attack the palace. Will the remaining troops be stationed on the plane?; ず博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博

If the commando is not going well, use the second plan to let Dapeng land on the open space three kilometers away from the airport, and attack the airport after the bomber arrives." In Dong Hao's plan, the commando will become the key to victory or defeat. If he can quietly descend? Then this battle will be won? If it fails, the Soviet army will definitely defend to the death. Once the troops of the Hindu Kush Mountain are taken back and cooperate with the Amanula puppet army in the city, the pressure on the airborne battalion will be very high. What makes Long Yun most worried is that due to the lack of heavy equipment of the airborne troops, it will be difficult to block the artillery fire in Kabul City once it is exposed.

However, at this point, Dong Hao was confident: "We have experimented many times. Can the glider approach the aircraft without any sound? It can be caught at most thirty meters after landing? It takes only a few dozen seconds. The Soviet army will definitely not react in such a short time. We also have heavy firepower. Before coming out, the Chief of Staff specially strengthened us. It has not yet installed 6 80mm recoil-free cannons and 6 107mm rocket launchers. Even if they attacked, they can take the airport."

"When will it start?"

"Nine hours later!" Mei Sheng looked at his watch.
