In August of 1981, Commander Sher Padshah moved his troops from Daulatshah to Alishang Village. Padshad bedded down his men for the night while the local Mujahideen, under the command of Mawlawi Mohammed, agreed to keep guard. Padshah arose at dawn to the sound of gunfire.
Notified of the Mujahideen troops in Alishang, the commander of the 66th Seperate Motorized Rifle Brigade sent a company of infantry to surround the village. He then called on the 71st DRA Regiment in nearby Mehtar Lam to crush the trapped rebels.
Padshah knew he had two choices, he could either try and escape to the nearby Badrow Hills and disappear in the mountains or he could try and fight it out in Alishang Village. He was trapped like a rat, but one with sharp teeth.
This scenario is based on the vignette, Battle for Alishang District Center, in Afghan Guerrila Warfare, by Ali Jalali and Lester Grau.
