Chapter 74: Ramiele's Revenge

  PS: Thanks to Jiu.46520, Pan An and Dong Shi, two good friends for the reward, thanks to all friends for voting support! Sanjiang list was exploded by others, and the difference with the first place is only a few votes. Everyone, please vote for Sanjiang!

  Originally, this bomb was supposed to explode in the air between 100 and 50 meters, and then scatter these ** throughout the village. If it landed directly on a person's skin, they would die within seconds. If it fell to the ground, it would quickly evaporate into the air, and anyone who smelled the gas would also die of poisoning soon after.

  The color seen alone should be the most common one, however, it does not rule out that the Soviets used more advanced poisonous gas bombs.

  Muhammad had intended to breathe again after running out of the yard, but when he saw Lamile, Muhammad immediately shouted loudly.

  Poison gas bomb! Hearing this, Lamai immediately stopped in his tracks and turned around to run outside.

  Behind them, several Tajik youths had already run out, and Ramile shouted: "Quickly, notify everyone in the village to immediately leave the village, there are poisonous gas shells here!"

  Luckily, the poisonous gas bomb did not explode. The whole village was hiding in their homes, trembling with fear. When they heard the shouting on the street, they all ran out and followed each other to run outside the village.

  Muhammad also followed the crowd, bringing the villagers to run outside, but saw a girl walking against the tide, towards the village.

  The girl walked while looking around until she saw a familiar face.

  "Lilith, are you out of your mind?! There's a toxic gas bomb here!" Muhammad bellowed at Lilith, this time he was truly enraged. This girl, how could she be so disobedient?

  "Mahmoud, I'm worried about you." Lilith ignored Mahmoud's roar and threw herself into his arms: "I know there are poisonous gas bombs. I saw people in the village running out, but I didn't see you. I was so scared. You're always brave, rushing to the front line."

  Muhammad hugged Lili tightly. At this moment, Lili was really worried about herself, without any pretence. She truly loved herself.

  Lilith lay on Muhammad's chest, listening to Muhammad's heartbeat, smelling the scent of a man on him, making her heart inexplicably racing.

  This is the feeling of love.

  Suddenly, she felt Muhammad's body, softly lying on hers.

  "Muhammad! Muhammad!" Lilith shouted loudly, she made an effort to block Muhammad's body, looking into Muhammad's eyes, the pupils had already begun to shrink...

  When Muhammad woke up again, he was already lying back in the mountain cave of the base camp, with a pile of firewood lit up, and the cave was warm and cozy.

  As he opened his eyes, the first thing Muhammad saw was Lili's familiar face. Seeing Muhammad wake up, Lili's face was filled with joy.

  "Mahmoud, you're finally awake!" Lilith said, leaning into Mahmoud's arms, "I thought you..."

  "I was poisoned," Muhammad said, recalling the situation at that time. He had already seen those yellow ** and actually started to volatilize at that time. He inhaled some of them, but didn't feel anything temporarily. Those toxic gases entered his bloodstream from his alveoli and then into various parts of his body.

  When Mohammad was exercising violently, the spread of toxic gas became more severe. In such a situation, under Afghan medical conditions, it is simply lucky that Mohammad can survive.

  "Was it you who saved me?" Muhammad asked Lilith.

  "It wasn't me, fortunately among the supplies that arrived this time, including some medicines, I found atropine and pralidoxime, these medicines saved your life." Lilith said: "Muhammad, during the two days you were unconscious, I was afraid every day, if you went to another world, then living would also lose its meaning for me, I love you, I really can't lose you."

  Muhammad was poisoned with atropine, an anticholinergic drug that mainly controls muscarinic symptoms and central nervous system symptoms. Cholinesterase reactivator pralidoxime can restore the function of inhibited cholinesterase. These two drugs are specific antidotes for poisoning victims. If not for these two drugs, Muhammad would have died under the backward medical conditions in the mountainous area, relying on a few barefoot doctors.

  Mohammed recalled the scene at that time and felt a little scared. He asked Lilith: "What about those villagers? Is anyone poisoned?"

  "Fortunately, we evacuated the villagers in time and no more people were harmed. Only that old man couldn't be saved," Lilith said.

  The old man also came into contact with the volatile poison, and his own resistance was very weak. Unfortunately, he died.

  "What about the other villages?" Muhammad asked, remembering that under the pylon of that MiG-23BN there were four bombs, only one exploded, what happened to the other three? Where did they fall?

  "Only Chadam village was bombed, the surrounding villages were not harmed." Lirish said: "The plane flew back after dropping the bombs."

  Did they fly back? Muhammad was surprised, the Soviets were madly using poison gas to attack Afghan villages, how did they suddenly change their ways? Four bombs, only one was thrown and then left?

  Although Muhammad felt unexpected, this was also good news. If the Soviets really used poison gas bombs to attack, they had no good way to deal with it except asking the Americans for gas masks and distributing them to every villager.

  Would the same poison gas bombs be used against Soviet garrisons? This would escalate the conflict to uncontrollable levels, and who knows whether the Soviets, in their anger, might not use nuclear weapons to blast a few Afghan guerrilla strongholds.

  The Soviet Union is a superpower that dares to use nuclear weapons and fight against rogue superpowers, with crises everywhere.

  Muhammad let out a sigh: "Call in Lamelle."

  The village that was hit by a toxic gas bomb must be thoroughly cleaned before it can be reoccupied. Muhammad's special training included chemical warfare defense.

  When Lily heard Muhammad's words, her body shook suddenly and her facial expression was somewhat different.

  "What's going on?" Muhammad suddenly felt something was off. What had happened during the time he was unconscious?

  "Ramuel is gone," Lilith said.

  Did he leave? He just said he wanted to join his own team and fight against the Soviet Union's Ramile, but he actually left? Where did he go?

  Muhammad didn't ask, and Lilith continued: "After you were poisoned, Ramile said he would take revenge for you, and some of the guerrillas also wanted to go, but they were stopped by Khwaja. There was a dispute between the two sides. Later, Ramile took a dozen or so Tajik boys with him, along with our two guerrilla fighters, and left together."

  Khawaja is right, before Muhammad wakes up, their mission was not to avenge but to wait, and Ramil is also not wrong, suffered from the Soviet's poisonous gas attack, did not counterattack, that would be too weak.

  It's just... this is absolutely not a good time for fighting. "Who among us has gone?" Muhammad asked.

  "Osama, Duranni," Laila said. "Osama was going to take that rocket launcher with him, but Khwaja stopped him and they almost got into a fight. Later, Osama took away a dozen or so rockets and said he was going to Baghram to blow up the Soviet airport."

  "Hu nao!" Muhammad sat up abruptly on his bed and said: "Call Khwaja, assemble the cavalry immediately."

  After the forward operating base at Jalalabad was destroyed, the Soviets could only fly aircraft out of Bagram, and that plane must have come from there.

  Unlike Jalalabad Airport, Bagram was the most important airport for the Soviets and also the headquarters of the 108th Division of the 40th Army. There were more than 5,000 Soviet troops alone, and Osama had only a few people with a dozen rockets, not only could they not destroy the Soviet airport, but they all fell into it!

  The Daxueshan area is difficult to traverse, and it will take five or six days to reach Bagram. Our side can ride horses over there and catch up with them before they make a mistake.

  "Mr. Muhammad, you are still very weak," Lirien said: "You must rest."

  "Khawaja!" Muhammad got up from the bed, his feet slightly floating, his hands grasping the bedside, and walked out step by step.

  "Mr. Muhammad!" Lilith stamped her foot and followed him forward, supporting Muhammad.

  The sunlight outside was dazzling. Muhammad saw Khwaja standing outside, and the guerrillas were also standing outside, apparently all waiting for Muhammad to wake up.

  "Thank God, you've finally woken up." Khwaja said with a forced smile on his face. He had also gotten into an argument with Osama and was feeling quite upset.

  "Khawaja, you did nothing wrong," Muhammad said. "The essence of guerrilla warfare is to strike the strong enemy at their weakest point, slowly exhausting them, absolutely not a head-on collision."

  "But..." Khwaja wanted to say, that Osama said he didn't have the courage to take revenge on the instructor!

  "Khawja, I trust you. We are all strong and brave mujahideen. The road to Afghanistan's independence is long and winding. We can only hold on until the final victory if we unite." Muhammad said: "Now our task is to bring back Osama and Ramil and others."

  Khawaja's heart was filled with a surge of indignation, for he too had wanted to avenge Muhammad, and the Soviets' use of poison gas was simply outrageous!

  However, Khwaja knew that keeping such a living force alive was not easy. Going to Bagram would be suicidal and there would be no way to avenge the instructor's death.

  Now, the instructor woke up, without blaming himself, without doubting himself. Such an instructor is worth a lifetime of pursuit!

  Muhammad put on a helmet he had captured outside his turban, mounted his horse and was about to leave when he saw Lilith hurrying out.

  "Mr. Muhammad, this vest, you wear it on your body." Lilith said to Muhammad.

  Muhammad took it over, the back is pretty good, sewn firmly, and just right to insert those two inserts in front and back. Wearing it on his body feels very similar to the equipment of later generations.
