About the Maoists in Afghanistan: they were founded in 1965, mainly students who like Mao Zedong thought. The Maoists did not listen to China. Afghan dignitaries who made friends with the Soviet Union hated the Maoists very much. After April 1978, the Soviet Union instructed KGB to massacre the Maoists, so they were forced to revolt together with the Islamists. After the uprising failed, they fled to Pakistan together. At this time, Hekmatyar began to kill the Maoists in order to exchange with the CIA for assistance. Finally, the Maoists in Afghanistan disappeared in 1982. After Mao Zedong died in China in 1976, the Chinese completely abandoned the red way . Therefore, it is impossible for China to order the Maoists to attack the Soviet Union.
