Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 797 Neurotoxin
Yahini only broke into the enemy's defense line for 1 kilometer, but this commanding height is only 6 kilometers away from the Prime Minister's Office. He became a poisonous thorn wedged into the main defense line of the Indian army as he wished. He knew very well that this thorn would greatly shorten the battle time. .Of course, before reaping the victory, the Indian counterattack must be blocked.

Of course, whether it can withstand the counterattack of the Indian army does not entirely depend on the firepower of his mere battalion of tanks and the weaker firepower of the machine battalion, and more importantly, the fire support from the air and the ground.He began to deploy quickly, and the Indians hadn't recovered yet, and the nearby enemy forces were in chaos.Yahini didn't know that he had destroyed the combat value of that headquarters just now. This relatively blind attack caused the Pasade Command to be unable to judge the situation at present.

The highest point of the zoo overlooks the whole of New Delhi. To the south of it is the empty New Delhi golf course. This is where the enemy tank group may launch an assault. It is still relatively calm; to the west of it is a residential area stretching for several kilometers. The defensive area of ​​those difficult Self-Defense Forces; and in the north, there is an old bunker left over from the colonial era, and the city wall is just facing the north.Further north is the architectural essence of India and even the whole of New Delhi: designed by the West: the National Stadium, Exhibition Hall, Gandhi Memorial Hall, and the Supreme Court are all there.It was the focus of Pasade's defense and the starting point for the assault.

Now that Yahini occupies the high ground, you can clearly see the enemy's entire defense line in the east, the artillery and anti-aircraft firepower hidden behind the tall buildings, and the hidden firepower configuration, almost at a glance.

Every time the Chinese drone approaches, he can relay all kinds of information to the Chinese headquarters through the relay of the drone, but so far, the Chinese have no sign of doing anything, and everything is too sudden for them , They are not ready to use their superior air force to attack these suddenly concentrated targets one by one.

Across the river, Yahini could see that the enemy on the opposite bank was in disarray, with different units crowded on the same road, marching in opposite directions.His experience as a grassroots officer told him that this was caused by confusion in command at the top or poor communication.Amir's battle group is probably deserted by now, but there shouldn't be anything left of them either.

If Amir can come back from the hospital as soon as possible, and his repair troops can work at full capacity, his troops still have a good chance to participate in the competition with him.

The enemy on the other side of the river retreated slowly, and most of them could not find the designated crossing point, so they huddled on the bank. The Indian mechanized troops writhed like a blind snake at night. The concentrated areas were marked one by one, waiting for long-range firepower.

A few minutes later, you can see billowing flashes of light above the enemy's brigade, and you can't see them clearly, just like fireworks that unfortunately flew into the dark clouds and were blocked from the light.Yahini didn't know what these things were, they didn't shoot directly at the ground, he guessed it might be some kind of smart ammunition that was distributed in the air.

The end-sensitive bombs are slowly scattered. This weapon has a small search range and relies heavily on accurate target indication. If the long flight distance of the rockets is calculated, it is really difficult to sprinkle them on the mobile troops. However, when the enemy is crossing the river Things get easier when the dots are huddled together.Yahini's thermal imaging camera accurately captured the enemy's assembly point, and the enemy had no time to perform a decent maneuver within a few minutes.

Countless bolts of lightning burst out from the clouds and hit the ground directly. The dazzling flash made Yahini's night vision method invalid, making it impossible to see the results of the battle.However, he knew that under the flash, the Indians would suffer heavy losses. If this kind of ammunition did not find the target, it would fall silently to the ground, so once the dense lightning was seen, there was no doubt that it had covered the target.

"Commander, about 20 enemy armored vehicles have been found in the south, followed by more than 100 infantry, and they are coming towards us." Rahman, who was in charge of the inevitable defense, was speaking on the radio.

"They recovered, and immediately called the artillery fire of the division headquarters to deal with them. Don't expose your firepower until the last moment. They can't see you now."

At this time, Younis's 122 running group was already on standby and had a prediction of the general target, which greatly alleviated the problem of slow artillery response.

Rahman could see enemy tanks approaching, measured the enemy's position precisely, and then contacted Younis directly by radio.

The target was still advancing, and one of the six-wheeled armored vehicles sent light signals from time to time, asking Rahman to report his identity.Yahini's choice to sneak into the enemy's rear at night was obviously the result of careful consideration. He anticipated every weakness of the Indians and took advantage of them.

Several test-fired shells fell behind the enemy, and Rahman hurriedly asked to correct the shooting, and then the dropped shells became more accurate.The animals in the zoo that were alarmed by the gunfire began to scurry around. A monkey landed on Rahman's chariot, hugged the commander's perimeter mirror and screamed, completely blocking Rahman's sight.He hammered the inner wall of the turret hard several times before driving the monkey away.

The enemy's artillery fire in the distance began to shoot, most of which were mortar shells. Since the Pakistani army tanks did not fire, the enemy could only roughly aim at night, and the shells were scattered, posing no threat.

In Pasadeh headquarters, the officer just congratulated the commander-in-chief, Ibrahim, the front-line commander who captured the enemy's accomplice alive, but things suddenly took a turn for the worse, and several troops reported that an enemy army had broken into the urban area. Gather around the zoo.

Things got extremely strange, but it didn't look like it was fake, especially since an anti-aircraft unit reported being attacked by tanks and being driven from its position near the zoo, the losses were real.The joy of victory that Pasade had just obtained has been swept away, and just looking at the map is enough to make him feel scared.The defense line of Zhu Mu Na River is the key point of his defense. He originally hoped to rely on this line of defense to carry out active defense and constantly attack and consume the opponent, but after only trying, the enemy found a loophole and sneaked in.

However, the marshal still hesitated. He needed to figure out whether the enemy army had infiltrated into his own deep zone, or whether it was a mutinous force instigated by the enemy's intelligence agency and was preparing to cooperate internally and externally. Of course, he also had to figure out the size of the enemy.

He ordered two Mi-2 helicopters to take off to investigate.The troops on the other lines began to shrink, ready to respond.There were constant reports from the front, mobile units being hit as they retreated, and enemy attacks becoming more precise.

Yahini's Mech Battalion had quickly cleared about a platoon of enemies in the ancient fort north of the zoo.Then quickly occupy it, they carry the Vanguard portable anti-air missiles, which are the only means of air defense of Yahini.

The two Mi-2s slowly approached the target area, and the pilots had to slow down and fly low to avoid being locked by enemy planes in the air.They observed the heat source ahead through the thermal imager. Judging from the appearance, it was a BMP35 infantry fighting vehicle.This is a weapon widely used by both India and Pakistan. The superiors strictly ordered them to get close to confirm the enemy and the enemy, but the thermal imaging camera cannot identify it.

At the same time, the Pakistani infantry on the ground defense could only hear the rotors approaching in the air, but could not see the position of the aircraft in the air, so naturally they had no way of aiming.However, the two Mi-2s suddenly turned on their searchlights, which suddenly gave the shooters who had no idea where to start.

The huge beam of light shot directly at the tank below, and the pilot instantly saw the target parked on the ground, shrouded in strong light. From the camouflage and various markings, it was determined that it was indeed an enemy tank. The video was simultaneously transmitted to Pasade's Front Command.The pilot adjusted the inclination of the pylon to prepare to attack with the rocket pod. When they launched the attack, three missiles jumped up from the ground at the same time.While the chariot was being destroyed, two fireballs fell from the sky.

Pasade in the headquarters was stunned for a moment, the worst hypothesis was confirmed, and the enemy fell into his hinterland like a heavenly soldier.

The marshal's inherent image of the Pakistani army is lax discipline, chaotic organization, very monotonous basic tactics, and inability to perform complex tasks; under normal circumstances, as long as you observe carefully, the action intention of the Pakistani army will always be quickly exposed.But what is puzzling is why suddenly, a commanding genius appeared on the enemy's side.This is a treacherous way of fighting that India and Pakistan have never seen since the establishment of these two countries. The enemy completed the crossing of the river without even firing a shot. That surprise attack was on par.

"Lieutenant General Pacianita, you take over the command of the former enemy and launch an attack immediately to eat this enemy."

"But Commander, if the troops make a sudden U-turn in the dark, it will inevitably cause great confusion. If you wait until dawn, you will be more confident."

"We are already chaotic enough, so don't worry about other things. You have to do whatever it takes to recover your position before the enemy moves in other directions."

"Report, the Chinese army suddenly launched an attack from Indira Airport, and the artillery fire hit the Delhi barracks."

"Look, the action has already begun. They will not give us time to adjust slowly during the day, but will attack us now." The marshal put his hands on his hips and walked back and forth in the command room a few times, "The south is temporarily handed over to Mu. Yar's troops. We concentrate all our forces in the east, and before dawn, we must take back the commanding heights of the zoo, and there must be no mistakes."

The commander-in-chief dropped the last order, put on his helmet and left the frontline headquarters. This place was too dangerous, and he had to quickly transfer to the underground headquarters in the north of the city.

Dr. Mulit hid on the roof, observing the artillery fire not far away. He had to keep turning his head back and forth to take care of both directions.When the fierce battle in the east was reflected in the red sky, the artillery fire of the Chinese army had already begun to echo from the south. They set off from the Indira Gandhi Airport and approached the Safudjong Army Hospital where they were.The artillery fire from two directions slowly extended, and they were about to meet.He could see Indian trucks dragging cannons around the streets, being driven around by the fire.It seems that the main force of the self-defense army is defending the south, and the main force of the army is responsible for the east. Since the outside is under martial law, any civilians who go to the streets will be killed. He can't send such news, but these news are obviously insignificant. Many places have been lost, and the air defense force has not had a large enough area to maneuver. Maybe the Chinese drones can already fly in.

Throughout the night, the sound of artillery in the east and south of the city continued for a long time, especially the sound of artillery in the east was interspersed with the sound of fierce firefights. Even ordinary civilians without military knowledge could judge from common sense that the enemy had already entered the city.

At dawn the artillery fire to the east died down a little.

Muyar came to the Prime Minister's Office and reported to Kahan that after a night of hard fighting, the southern front had largely stabilized. The Prime Minister seemed to have recovered a little bit of anger when he heard this, and then insisted on going to the garden of the Prime Minister's Office as planned, He honors the heroes of battle, even if they may be killed by the enemy, he will not hesitate.He hadn't seen the sun for many days and had to look again today.

With the help of Muyar, Kahan staggered to the ground, and then walked into the garden of the Prime Minister's Palace that was pitted by shells.It's a pity that the huge gunpowder smoke rising from the east blocked a round of the sun, making it impossible to see the sun at all.

The Prime Minister went straight to a row of tall and short soldiers in front of him. Most of these people were wearing tattered camouflage uniforms, some of them were wounded, and they were obviously just coming off the front line.

Standing first in the queue was a young soldier whose head and right hand were bandaged.Muyar told Kahan that the 15-year-old soldier was called Harish. He destroyed 3 enemy tanks and guided the artillery to destroy an enemy artillery position while fighting alone.Kahan walked over and patted the boy on the shoulder, then shook his hand with his left hand.

A drone that got into the Indian air defense network hovered near the Prime Minister's Office. Now New Delhi's air defense network is riddled with holes. If the drone can skillfully use various covers, it has the opportunity to drill into the sky above the core area.

The drone photographed a group of people in the garden of the Prime Minister’s Office. The operator at the rear magnified and could clearly see an old man with a severe hunchback patting the shoulder of a young man. The operator hurriedly called the commander standing behind him. He is sure that he has discovered an important target, and maybe in a minute, the war can be ended.

The commander walked over and could see that the picture had been moving slightly to the left, but the optical lens had been rotating steadily to counteract the movement of the drone.A crosshair fluttered over the old man's head.He realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately reported it to his superiors.

"It has been precisely positioned. It seems that they are performing some ceremony? The time will not be short, and there should be time to call for long-range firepower to destroy them." The operator said that his drone is not integrated with surveillance and cannot fire directly.

After 1 minute, Lin Huaisheng's headquarters directly vetoed the attack. Although most of the people present were soldiers, the bottom line of the Chinese government's prohibition on attacking senior Indian officials was still valid, and the drone had to continue to monitor.

The prime minister shook hands with the soldiers present one by one, and listened to everyone's general battle experience. His mood seemed to improve a lot, and he seemed to see hope.Before the ceremony ended, Kahan delivered a short speech, encouraging the soldiers to continue fighting bravely, and as usual, he still mentioned the counteroffensive.

After completing the award ceremony, Kahan bid farewell to Lieutenant General Muyar who had to leave due to urgent military affairs. Unfortunately, the sun still did not see through the gunpowder smoke in the east. cage.

There is a room at the end of the long corridor on the bottom floor, where a doctor is waiting for him.

Dr. Basney had been sitting here all morning, waiting for the Prime Minister to summon him. He heard slow and weak footsteps approaching outside, stood up immediately, and opened his suitcase.Sure enough, it was the prime minister with a gloomy face who walked in alone.

"Your Excellency, according to your instructions, I have brought a few things that may be useful."

"Very good, Dr. Basney. Well done." Kahan approached slowly, "Can you explain it to me."

"Of course," the doctor said, picking up a thin glass tube with a clear liquid inside. "This is potassium cyanide, a classic poison, but it takes too long to kill, so it's out of fashion now."

"Are there any more advanced ones?" the Prime Minister asked with a slightly trembling voice.

"Of course." The doctor took out another thin glass tube, and the liquid inside was light yellow. "This is an organic neurotoxin extracted from deep-sea species by the Americans, and it is very effective."

Kahan stretched out his trembling hand to pick it up: "Quick?"

"Very, very fast, the destruction of neurotransmitter activity is measured in milliseconds. It is generally believed that there may be a very short and slight numbness after swallowing, or there may be no feeling at all."

"Fine, that's it, I love this soft yet flattering color."

"There are 5 guns in this box. In fact, each gun can kill 30 people. Although it seems unnecessary, I think it is safer to keep some backups." The doctor put a small box on the table, "If I don't have anything else to do, so I'll take my leave first."

"Okay, you can go, thank you for everything you have done for me." Kahan stared at the box intently and said in a daze.

"I worked for Ning, goodbye."

The doctor pushed out of the room and quietly closed the door.
