Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 222 Counter Shots
The two Su-30s that completed the dive bombing drew an arc in the air confidently, climbed for a while, and then returned to the border of Bhutan.

Since the radar built by China on the snow mountain was attacked by the "Shark" squadron, the reconnaissance of the entire Assam hinterland has not resumed.The Indian intelligence agency believes that the radar will not be restored for at least half a year.This made the sword of Damocles, which had been hanging over the No. 2 Squadron of Tespur, disappear in an instant.

This unguided bomb attack performance did allow Lin Huaisheng at the foot of the mountain to see the bomb-dropping skills of this elite unit that has never been involved in fighting Pakistan. Indian pilots threw ordinary aerial bombs as accurately as laser-guided bombs.Lin Huaisheng couldn't help lamenting the heavy pressure. If Luosang Tashi's special mountain troops were his most feared opponents on the ground, these fighter-bombers deployed by India in Tespur would undoubtedly be the most powerful opponents in the air.

But Lin Huaisheng also knew that these planes could not be so rampant all the time. However, the radar on the snow mountain was still pretending to be paralyzed, and the enemy should have fallen for it, so they did not transfer the planes of the second squadron to the more vertical Bareilly Airport, but stayed at the front-line airport.This makes it extremely possible to destroy these aircraft at an early stage.The war between China and India has not yet started, but all kinds of false and real fraudulent contests have been going on for a long time.Lin Huaisheng could even feel that, including this failed attack, there must be some kind of intention hidden. It was definitely not as simple as military training, but his position was too low to know.

At noon, a small team of Luosang Zhaxi finally climbed up the deserted hill and regained the position.There was no exchange of fire during the whole process, and no Chinese soldiers were seen.The news was immediately sent to the Ministry of Defense.Singer found that after a long period of disappointment, Charmain's intelligence finally became reliable. This time, he accurately predicted the time and place where the People's Liberation Army would launch an attack, and even predicted the retreat of the Chinese army.Charmain persuaded the Ministry of Defense to deliberately abandon the hill to protect intelligence sources.As for why the Chinese gave up this mountain?It really made Singer feel a little puzzled.Perhaps this innocuous attack was just to reduce the pressure on Pakistan?The Chinese are too stingy.

Singer couldn't help but be overjoyed when he thought that Charman had an insider line who could get access to core information.He took the initiative to call Charmain very exceptionally, congratulated him on the accuracy of the intelligence, and then wanted to find out the details of the intelligence channel.Charmain began to hide the source of his information, saying only that he had worked hard on this line for four years and that the information was passed by a reliable intermediary.And you can also look forward to getting access to more core Chinese decision-making intelligence within a few weeks.Singer was not annoyed by Charmain's mystification. On the contrary, he felt that his previous view of the intelligence chief might be wrong. Apart from being good at flattering, this person seemed to have some skills.

Of course, Singer never expected the Intelligence Agency to be able to act alone, and he himself had some overseas intelligence sources.He just learned from Israel that Pakistan's mobilization capability reached its peak last week, and will begin to decline from then on. Whether it is troops, equipment, fuel, or various parts, it will be difficult to sustain.Israeli intelligence also concluded that a diplomatic defeat for Palestine would precede a battlefield collapse.Pakistan's allies in the Middle East are losing confidence at the moment, and Arab countries have begun to calculate gains and losses.These oil-producing countries will gradually abandon various commitments to Pakistan.By the end of August, the only main ally that Pakistan can rely on is China, but China cannot independently support all the aid. Pakistan has a large amount of Western equipment, and its parts cannot be provided by China.

Before the routine meeting in the afternoon, exciting news came from the front again.Spanga's horde had entered the enemy's line from the front.And the armored troops that broke into the enemy's rear have already completed a series of secondary tasks and are approaching the real target.They will launch an important blow within a few hours. As long as this blow succeeds, most of Pakistan's nuclear threat will be neutralized.

It is 15 kilometers north of the city of Jadoy in central Pakistan.

The radio communication on the entire battlefield is still not smooth, but Yahini's tank company is rushing towards the enemy. He guessed that the enemy's purpose is to cut off the most important road from Multan to the south, causing the entire Second Army to fall into the trap. In the huge passivity.Therefore, being the ultimate thing is to open up the escape route.

8 tanks ran wildly on the asphalt road under the scorching sun.Finally at noon, from 5 kilometers away, he saw the Indian T90 tank again. He couldn't see how many enemies there were, but there must be more than one.They are guarding the high ground next to the road, with their guns pointing southeast.Judging from a row of smoking tank wreckage on the east road, Indian tanks have just defeated a T84 tank traveling on the road, and the White Tiger Division seems to have no losses.

"There is no air force, we can only rely on us to repel them." Yahini said into the communicator.

"But they were condescending," said a driver.

"Fortunately, I saw them first. Let's turn around from the west and don't get too close. You all load missiles. We have to attack from the extreme range."

"clear."

The convoy began to sneak out to the west.Gunner Tasim has been nagging what he has heard about some new countermeasures on the T90 tank.It is said that once the laser irradiation equipment is aimed at the T90, it will immediately detect it and interfere with it, making the missile attack fail.Yahini didn't care about this, he knew that laser beam missiles were not so easy to interfere.In fact, this Type 99 tank also has similar equipment, but as a commander who is outdated in information, he still doesn't know how to use this new equipment, or it can function automatically.

After a series of careful movements, the enemy's T90 tank gradually revealed its huge turret from behind the concealment.Their muzzles were still pointing at both ends of the road, and they didn't notice the situation behind them. The Indian commander was a little overwhelmed. He probably thought that Pakistani tanks could only appear from the road.

"Aim at the target first, don't measure the distance." Yahini told the rest of the crew.He has some scruples about the rumor that the T90 can perceive lasers, and he is confident that he can roughly measure the distance by experience with the dividing line in the scope without the need for a laser rangefinder.

All 8 tanks found a firing position, and none of the other commanders except Yahini launched an attack at such a long distance.Yahini has used gun-launched missiles twice, but the hit rate is only 50.00%, which is also much lower than the number on the manual.

"Fire the laser and shoot right away, don't drag your feet," Yahini said.He didn't bother assigning targets, because there are only 4 enemy tanks that can be seen visually, no matter how you fight, there shouldn't be any slipping through the net.

"I heard that the Indian White Tiger Division only recruits college students." A driver said, his tone full of awe of the enemy.This rumor among soldiers is the same as the T90's inability to penetrate from 500 meters away. It comes from hearsay, and Yahini has never taken it seriously.

"I don't think college students can play more accurately." Yahini said disapprovingly.He is now observing Tasim's aiming, and Tasim is using the 8.5x optical aiming channel to roughly measure the enemy's distance with the correction reticle.

"I've also heard that their equipment blinds the gunner," the commander said again.

"It's total nonsense," Yahini said.Such words that may disturb the morale of the army must be countered immediately. What if every gunner chooses to close his eyes and shoot.

"Stop thinking about it. Start shooting," he yelled.

Tasim pressed the laser firing button hard.In the aiming channel, the "ready" signal starts to flash.While waiting, he didn't see any reaction from the enemy tank to detect the laser beam.

The blinking finally stopped.This is an indication that it can be shot.

The 8 guns made loud noises almost simultaneously.Each artillery-launched missile flies towards the target guided by its own laser beam at a very high muzzle velocity.

"Don't move." Yahini gritted his teeth and prayed. The next process will only take 2 to 3 seconds. As long as the enemy continues to stop there, then it is doomed, even if he has gone to college.

Aiming within the reticle, the enemy tank began to emit black smoke, and seemed to be starting.At the same time, a light spot spiraled around the crosshair, slowly approaching the target, and finally hit the huge turret.Yahini quickly turned the Zhou Sight, and the rest of the Indian tanks were also hit by the same blow.

"One is still moving, with armor-piercing shells," he shouted.

Tasim immediately pressed the button on the automatic loader and waited for the shell to load.

"First row, follow me and charge."

Yahini ordered that he knew that at a distance of 4 kilometers, it was impossible for the tail-stabilized armor-piercing projectile to hit the target, and now it was time for a risky charge.He also knew that rushing across an open field was a very dangerous thing, but he had to do it.

Three tanks followed him and charged forward, with their muzzles pointing in all directions of the front.Every vehicle commander is using image stabilization equipment to search for possible hidden threats.

The surviving Indian tank on the commanding heights has been moving, maybe it was saved by the reactive armor just now.Anyway, that magical laser suppression device didn't work, maybe it didn't work as well as it was said to do.

The Indian tanks on the high ground stopped.Yahini could see its muzzle turning and finally aimed at himself, which meant that the enemy was aiming desperately, and there was no time to think too much, the only thing to do now was to turn the turret on it.

Tasim used the moving image stabilization to aim and hope to shoot first. He was a little too hasty, and the shell was missed by him.The T90 spent more time on more conservative disturbance aiming, and its shots were both accurate and hard.Yahini saw the huge flames from the opponent's muzzle from the Zhou Sight.A flash of light flew towards him.Immediately afterwards, he heard a terrible tearing sound, and the huge impact kinetic energy even caused the stabilized sight to vibrate violently.It took Yahini a few seconds to recover from the panic, and he finally determined that the loud noise was not the sound of the armor being torn apart, but the sound of the core snapping off.
