Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 322
Wang Tiechuan knows that the Indian Army has started an ambitious transformation of its tactical communication system in the past five years. The purpose of this work is to gradually replace the old and single-function analog communication equipment.Theoretically, the new system can cover all army units, from the mere 5-watt single-soldier radio, to the battalion-level command post/tank radio, to the large-capacity radio of the group army command vehicle, and its battlefield terminals can be deployed in different places. The theater forms a theater local area network, and image data is transmitted in addition to voice communication, so that battlefield information can be shared between nodes.Of course, most of the functions of this magnificent system are still on the blueprint, but the new radio stations obtained by each war zone a few years ago, these stations at least have the function of confidential voice, and can be used in the traditional In addition to the encryption method, a confidential frequency hopping mode is added.

In order to win the two battles on the east and west battlefields at the same time, in the cold start plan, some main forces must be transported by rail and road, and deployed on the two fronts at any time. Without simultaneous encrypted communication capabilities, such cross-regional transfers are unimaginable of.Therefore, the Ministry of Defense decided to implement the method of encrypted intercommunication between theaters throughout the Army to ensure the implementation of cold start.

In the end, the cruel reality confirmed the huge hidden dangers of the "cold start plan".When the Indian Army realized that a T90 command tank far away on the Afghan border might fall into the enemy's hands, the entire army was forced to replace the key in advance. This is a labor-intensive task, but it is absolutely impossible not to do it .

Wearing a raincoat to cover his Chinese face, Wang Tiechuan walked quickly through the damp listening room. Below was a row of dark stairs leading to nowhere.He was so courageous that he just walked on with his pistol, not even speaking a word of Hindi.

Of course, he did not rely entirely on courage to complete the task. He already had a general understanding of the situation here, including the general internal structure of the bunker complex and the primary and secondary relationships between the buildings.The main castle he came to is the core of the entire listening station building, and all the mountaintop antennas are finally connected here.He knows that this is the entire lower reaches of the Yarlung Zangbo River, India's strongest defense node, which can be concluded from the fact that this fortress has its own heliport.

The intelligence department spent some money to bribe the person who built the fort back then, knowing that there are three layers of structure here, and the most important part is at the bottom.In addition to monitoring the communication on the Chinese fixed channel, this is also the communication/command center of the Indians themselves, which are connected to dozens of radio stations in the surrounding 20 kilometers.Wang Tiechuan's venture into this time is to find out its internal structure, which is crucial for what kind of tactics to use in the future to attack here.

There was a lot of snoring in the porch on the lower floor. He glanced at it. In the damp room, there were many soldiers sleeping on the floor, and their weapons were placed on the side of the corridor.This is obviously a place to sleep.Turning his head to the other side, there is a far-reaching corridor. There are two vague figures in front of him. They seem to be talking about something. He hides in the shadow and takes a few steps closer. He hears the other party talking in English. It’s still early. Wang Tiechuan simply eavesdropped patiently. He knew that he had an absolute advantage in the dark environment, so he was not very worried about being discovered.

"When are you... leaving here?" A person asked with gestures.Apparently he was forced to speak in English and the only reason was that the other party could not speak Hindi.

"Our American equipment has intercepted suspicious radio communications. There may be Chinese nearby, so Tispur asked us to stay a little longer."

The man answered very fluently, with a bit of an American accent.Wang Tiechuan could guess that this person must be one of Lobsang Gyatso's subordinates. Many of these people were born in Nepal, so naturally they can't speak Hindi. They were trained in Guam, so their English is ok.In addition, it can be judged from his words that Lobsang Gyatso himself is here.

"The Chinese can't be around, if they can get here, why are they sending so many drones to take pictures every day?"

"As far as I know, these drones are used to investigate hydrology and meteorology, and the superiors can't figure it out. What the hell are they doing?"

Wang Tiechuan poked his head out from the shadows and glanced around the corner. The two people were still far away. They didn't happen to meet in the aisle to chat, but they were standing guard for a room.This made Wang Tiechuan feel suspicious.Why is the defense of the entire mountain so common, but these double posts were added inside?But he was not in a hurry, and listened to what they had to say.

The next thing the two of them talked about was some irrelevant things, which made Wang Tiechuan extremely anxious, seeing that the sky was about to dawn.

At this time, the walkie-talkie carried by the soldier of the Indian-Tibet Special Forces suddenly buzzed. He took out the walkie-talkie and whispered for a while, the voice was too soft for Wang Tiechuan to hear clearly.

"What did your boss say?"

"In 30 minutes, the special plane for adding the key will arrive. He told us to guard the telegraph room and not allow anyone to enter."

Hearing this, Wang Tiechuan couldn't help but gasped; of course he knew what the key raise was, which meant a huge opportunity.Now the forward monitoring stations of both sides are a pool of stagnant water, and they can only eavesdrop on the other party's explicit or covert calls on fixed channels.In fact, the part that can be heard by the other party is obviously not important.If you can get the opponent's complete key (including password and frequency hopping map), in theory, you can receive their information synchronously with the enemy.

"The hope is finally over, my feet are numb." The Indian soldier said impatiently, obviously he was not satisfied with such a meaningless sentry mission.

"It's not that simple. It's not over until they get on the plane and leave."

"I think it's superfluous. I've never heard of it. It needs to be on the radio."

"The captain thinks there are enemy agents nearby, and the soldiers here are not very reliable, so no one should have the opportunity to tamper with the radio."

"He thinks we are unreliable?" The Indian soldier was taken aback.

"Yes, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is conducting an internal investigation of the reservists registered in the eastern states, preparing to eliminate left-wing and separatist elements within the army. If I don't tell you, you will never know." The special forces soldier did not He showed off his knowledge in a cover-up manner.

"My God, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has never worried that you foreigners will also be bought?"

"Believe it or not, we've always been the most reliable in their eyes."

Just when the conversation between the two sentinels smelled like gunpowder, Wang Tiechuan quickly calculated several plans, none of which seemed feasible. He thought that time was running out, so he had to go back quickly and communicate with other people. .

He exited the aisle without a sound and walked up.When passing through the dilapidated listening post, the Indian soldier who bumped into it just now came back staggeringly.Wang Tiechuan hurriedly dodged to the side, and the dull Indian soldier got to his post, put on his earphones, and then fell into a drowsy state.

Wang Tiechuan quickly passed behind him and walked to the external passage. The Indian soldier looked back at the back without any suspicion. Recently, an Indian-Tibetan special force was stationed here, so he was not wary of strangers. .

Wang Tiechuan walked out of the bunker the same way, and the rain outside became heavier and heavier, and the trench was already full of water.He carefully observed his surroundings, then quickly merged into the night and returned to the starting area.

The sound of chirping autumn insects rang in Wang Tiechuan's ears. He knew that his comrades had seen him, so he slowly climbed down, and soon joined other scouts.

Using the roar of the river as a cover, Wang Tiechuan had a short meeting with everyone.He told others that 20 minutes later, an Indian army helicopter will land on the tarmac of the back mountain. This plane may carry extremely important key filling equipment, which shows that the enemy began to change the password in advance. After working, if you can succeed, the direct consequence is that you can directly listen to the information sent and received by the enemy; in view of the fact that the entire Indian Army is tending to unify in the management of communication keys, the hidden value behind this is almost inestimable.

As soon as he finished talking about this sudden opportunity, some people immediately expressed different opinions. Not everyone here is easy to get hotheaded.

The objection is that it is completely infeasible to seize the encryption device, because once the enemy realizes that the key has been compromised, he will definitely change the password again.

In the torrential rain, the discussion fell into a stalemate, and the opportunity was slipping away from Wang Tiechuan.He was really unwilling to give up such a good opportunity.But he couldn't think of a way to solve the unsolvable problem.

He knows that this kind of thing can only be done without anyone noticing, so it is definitely not feasible to steal the radio station; as for the idea of ​​​​stealing the key filling machine, it is even more nonsense, because this equipment must be provided by a special person. Brought, and then brought back, and in the whole process, there seems to be no loopholes that can be exploited.

"I have a way, I don't know if it's feasible or not."

It was Baima, a new Tibetan scout who was speaking, who was not a member of Snow Wolf before, but an intelligence-gathering generalist who had just borrowed from another army.

Baima has been dealing with the enemy on the frontier of Medog for a long time, and can understand Hindi and Nepali, and of course Tibetan is not a problem.Lin Huaisheng used to be Baima's superior and gave him high praise, not only because of his language talent, but also because he always had a lot of tricky ideas.

"What do you think? Tell me quickly." Wang Tiechuan asked anxiously.Everyone else turned their heads and waited for him to continue.

"I have a plan to resurrect the dead..."

"Borrowing the corpse to return the soul?" Wang Tiechuan thought to himself, as expected it was taught by Lin Huaisheng, and he can be dragged by his mother.

In the night, a helicopter roared from the southwest. It flew very carefully at night, maintaining an altitude of about 4000 meters, always on guard against the dark mountains around it.After flying over the roaring Yarlung Zangbo River, he finally saw the brightly lit tarmac, and then began to slowly lower the altitude.Under normal circumstances, the Indian Army Aviation rarely dispatches at night, but today this aircraft has a major mission and can only be dispatched overnight.

The East is gradually showing its fish belly. The Indian pilots can see that it is really important that at least one platoon of troops around the airport is on guard. It is obvious that they attach great importance to their arrival.

"We are here, be careful of the turbulence." The pilot turned to remind the two passengers on board.Both of them were members of the Special Service Force directly under the Army Staff Headquarters. One of them was carrying a box that never left his body. There was a pair of handcuffs on the box, one end of which was handcuffed on his own left hand.

Conditions at the airport were poor and it took the pilot some time to land successfully.The rotor of the helicopter was still spinning rapidly, and a special forces officer wearing sunglasses on the ground stepped forward, covering his hat, and greeted the passengers above.

He shook hands with the officer carrying the key-loading device, whom he had met once in Tespur.

"Hello Captain Doron, is it enough to fly at night?" Lausanne said loudly.

"Who says it's not? I heard that the Southwest Armored Forces lost an important tank radio station. It is a mobile subsystem directly under the command post of the Army Group. The situation is very serious. Therefore, every theater must send out manpower overnight to replace it. The key. You are at the forefront here, and the Chinese are eavesdropping all the time, let alone delay."

"By the way, Captain Doron, how long will the whole procedure take?"

"You mean the whole process? It took me 3 hours to fly here... Hehe, it takes about 40 seconds to refill the key. Then we have to spend a few hours flying back." Doron smiled wryly. Said.

Lobsang Gyatso couldn't help but glanced at the box in Duolong's hand. He thought that the person who lost command of the tank on the front line in Pakistan should really be shot. How much has he delayed by himself?
