    The No. 4 sub-base in Afghanistan now basically has nothing to do with the Taliban. The Taliban is on the right track and has its own pace. As its strength increases, the Taliban also attracts the attention of the world. After Qi Yiming thought twice,  Still don¡¯t intend to let Afghanistan and China appear so close.

    In the past few years, he has been happy enough to stir up troubles in the surrounding areas, and with the rapid decline of the Soviet Union, some people with lofty ideals in the United States have set their sights on China, which is following behind them and waving the flag.  If his actions are too straightforward and violent, the United States will be more vigilant, causing him a lot of unnecessary trouble.

    But the Taliban don¡¯t need the support of the base very much. Qi Yiming basically witnessed an Afghan/Soviet version of the transport captain. During the entire Soviet-Afghan war, the Soviet Union sent a large amount of weapons and equipment to Najibullah¡¯s puppet regime.  , not only weapons such as AK47, but also a large amount of heavy equipment, such as fighter attack aircraft 20M2IM2. In the past ten years, the Soviet Union has given hundreds of them to the Afghan puppet regime.  Various types of armored vehicles and tanks, including HTB66070, BNP-/2T544526 and thousands more.

    Although the battle damage caused by the use of these equipment by the government troops was considerable, a large amount of equipment was still left behind.  At first, Qi Yiming honestly provided base-produced equipment to the Taliban, but later he found that this was really stupid.  Although the output of the base is astonishingly large, good steel is used on the blade. It can build 99 tanks and apocalypse, but it is simply a waste to build 59B.  After discovering the nature of the Afghan government army transport brigade captain, Qi Yiming instructed Omar to start launching his troops to conduct raids on government military equipment warehouses and military bases across Afghanistan.

    They were even so bold that they raided the Soviet camps to seize their supplies before the Soviets withdrew.  The Soviet army also seemed very weak. They wanted to retreat. The leadership system had basically completely lost the desire to command, and the lower-level officers and soldiers had no morale. Facing the Taliban who were much weaker than them, they basically just ran away with their heads down.  .  Later, when it was discovered that the Taliban's target was not them but the equipment in their hands, a large number of Soviet soldiers threw away their weapons, did not drive away the tanks and aircraft, and quickly left the firefighting zone in faster trucks, armored vehicles, etc.

    Even Qi Yiming found this situation a bit unbelievable. During the Sino-Soviet border war, although the PLA led by San Pei won an overall victory, Qi Yiming believed that the fighting spirit of the Soviet army was still good, unless it reached the point of collapse.  Otherwise, the resistance is still relatively tenacious.  He had never imagined that the 40th Army, which was originally considered an elite force, had reached such a state, which made him sigh.

    This kind of robbery has allowed the Taliban to rapidly increase their weapons. Ordinary recruits can practice target shooting on their own. The Taliban's ordinary armed forces are even preparing to build mechanized troops and are looking for literate and educated people everywhere.

    Qi Yiming simply built a repair shop at the Afghan base specifically to transform these Soviet equipment.  For example, more than 400 T54456 tanks currently captured by the Taliban have been transformed into battle-worthy 59B main battle tanks after some renovations at the repair shop.

    Compared with China¡¯s own tanks and tanks exported to other countries, the 59B cannot be compared with them. Even defense contractors such as Norinco have basically stopped producing the 59 series of tanks in recent years.  However, due to the huge amount of equipment, Qi Yiming did not crush them all and recycle them for a while. There were still many Type 59 tanks that were refurbished and modified by the depot and became new 59B tanks, which were exported to countries with poor economic conditions such as Bangladesh.  Three world countries.

    The refurbished and modified 59B tank has a 10m main gun, which can fire lean-oil stabilized projectiles, and its armor-piercing capability can exceed 6Um of quality armor. It can also fire domestic artillery-launched missiles, but Qi Yiming did not provide it to the Taliban; 59DR spoon  The fire control system adopts China's simple and practical fire control system, light point injection fire control system and integrated two-way stabilized gun sighting system, second-generation light point and hydraulic/electric stabilization system, and updated fire control ballistic computer. Although compared with  For any other domestic tank, this system is much weaker, but for Afghanistan, it is terrifyingly advanced; the vehicle is also equipped with a simple thermal imager and has been replaced with third-generation low-light night vision combat equipment, giving it  It has a certain night fighting capability; the power has been increased from 60 horsepower to 60 horsepower; the 59B exported to other countries is also equipped with double-proof explosive reactive armor, which triples its defense capability. However, because the Taliban cannot be linked to China  , so the T54456 refurbished and improved by the Red Alert Maintenance Plant does not have explosive reactive armor, but a semi-oval cast turret; the tank also has an automatic fire extinguishing system and a collective three-defense system, making it safer.

    It can be said that with these 59B tanks, the armored forces formed by the Taliban are basically invincible in Afghanistan.  When dealing with government troops and other separatist forces many times, the Taliban's armored forces immediately collapsed as soon as the Taliban's armored forces arrived.

    After summer, the Soviets have withdrawn, and the government forces are already trembling in the face of the dual challenges of the Taliban and the Northern Alliance.  The Taliban, who have been stable for some time, have begun to attack again. Although Omar has not made any remarks or statements about their military operations,Many outsiders have speculated on what bigger plans this ambitious Afghan man has.

    At the end of June, the Taliban launched a large-scale military campaign against the remnants of the government forces in the west. Omar even came to the front line in person to supervise the battle. His actions also greatly inspired the morale and confidence of the Taliban armed forces. The Taliban numbered 15,000.  The army set out from Farah and headed northwest to attack areas controlled by government forces.

    The main commander of this battle was Mifashin, a red police general of the Taliban. This bearded man was personally awarded the title of general by Omar. In the vast northwest region, it is impossible to see the use of weapons in a backward country.  Using the tactics of armored blitzkrieg, it took one day to break through the government's defense line.

    The armored forces and coordinated infantry commanded by Mifashin are all based on Red Alert soldiers and experienced mujahedin soldiers. Although they are practicing high-end tactics such as blitz warfare for the first time, their enemies are too weak.  Deliberately opening a certain width, with infantry following the advancing armored troops, almost no enemy can hold out for more than fifteen minutes in a field battle.  The tanks roared and fired artillery shells, hitting the enemy's formation and destroying a few Soviet tanks.  Government tanks that lack infantry cover can easily become targets for Taliban armored forces that can jointly attack from multiple directions and angles. Infantrymen who jump out of armored vehicles quickly join the battlefield to clean up.

    When they defeated a wave of enemies, the motorized infantry behind them went into battle to help them deal with these enemies.  The armored forces once again surged forward in tanks and armored vehicles.  In this way, the Taliban armed forces were like a sharp sword, directly piercing the government's defense line in the western region until they captured the important western town of Sindand.

    Mifaxin issued instructions before he invaded Sindande: "Surround Sindande Air Force Base and be sure to keep the government pilots there or persuade them to surrender. Our goal is to seize as many aircraft as possible."

    Hindand Air Force Base was one of the largest air force bases operated by the Soviets in Afghanistan before. There is also a large amount of property they left here. The government air force is also stationed here, with dozens of military aircraft of various types.

    Mifashin was afraid that people at Sindand Air Force Base would discover the Taliban's actions and escape in planes. At that time, he had to order the soldiers to shoot down these planes with their man-portable air defense missiles.  But things were much better than he imagined. When the Taliban invaded Sindand, the air force major general at the government base in Sindand announced his break with the puppet regime and surrendered to the Taliban.

    The bloodless capture of Sindand Air Force Base enabled the Taliban to obtain at least twenty M22-fighters, more than a dozen 202 attack aircraft, about a dozen M2E-1B helicopters, and nearly thirty Au-2-2  Transport aircraft.  The government forces knew before that Sindande would not be able to bear it, so they hoped to take away as much of the things here as possible and sent a lot of transport planes. In the end, they all took advantage of the Taliban.

    In addition to air force equipment, the Taliban also seized a large amount of government army equipment in Sindand, mainly ammunition, food and other supplies, but it was also a good harvest for the Taliban who had become a big family and business.

    This battle not only captured a large amount of supplies from Sindand, but also eliminated enemies in western Afghanistan and controlled the main transportation routes to and from Iran.  The Taliban's reputation has been even more shaken, and more and more people have begun to no longer doubt Omar and the Taliban's ability to end the painful war in Afghanistan.

    The Taliban also took this opportunity to organize their own air force. Although it was basically composed of surrenders from the former government army, this air force also grew relatively quickly through the powerful political and ideological Mu'anzin system.  Integrated into the system of the Taliban armed forces.

    The base maintenance shop has also made certain renovations and improvements to these military aircraft. In particular, the MiG 2 and MiG 2 have been given the ability to use certain Chinese weapons. Of course, the pilots who fly these modified fighters have adopted Omar's updated process.  red alert soldier.

    In the following days, a more interesting situation occurred.  More and more government pilots are flying to the south during missions and surrendering with their fighter planes.  For the longest month, the government forces were horrified to realize that 11 planes of various types had betrayed them and headed south.

    People's eyes are sharp. The Taliban will win the final victory. It seems to be a matter of time. If they continue to be trapped in the government forces that are at the end of their rope, they will definitely be liquidated in the future. Omar's bad reputation can become as popular as his good name.  circulated.  At this time, surrender can also be rewarded, and relying on one's own flying skills, you may even be entrusted with important tasks.  For these pilots, Afghanistan can continue to change regimes, but no matter who is in power, these cherished creatures must be treated with courtesy.
