Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 811 Tighten the noose
Charmain left the Prime Minister's Office and drove directly to the residence of the leader of the opposition party, Speaker of the People's House Krinasi Gandhi, in a bulletproof car. He had already communicated with Gandhi himself, and he could roughly confirm that Gandhi was a potential collaborator.

As a direct consequence of the defeat, all influential former senior government officials must come together regardless of reputation to ensure that the country remains intact.The influence of the Gandhi/Nehru family in this country is definitely up for grabs.Especially in the current interim government, it has been controlled by the low-caste former minister of agriculture and the guerrillas who have been enemies of the government for decades. These people may not want to see India fall apart, but they will become the main means for China to control India in the future If he considers the checks and balances for a long time to come, he believes that there are only the army and the Gandhi family; although the Gandhi family is eager to liquidate Kahan, it is also a force that restricts the spread of left-wing forces in India.At this moment, many people are still engaged in a hopeless final battle, but it is painful but necessary for intelligence chiefs to consider the difficult problems ahead.

The current map of India actually only emerged because the British Empire needed a unified tax source, and it does not have inherent cohesion.If India cannot expand externally, it means slipping into internal disintegration, and if there is no nationalism, it is likely to lead to separatism; all politicians from Nehru to Kahan are well aware of these reasons.

After a violent expansion, India was unfortunately beaten back to its original shape, and the bleak prospect of disintegration gradually became clear. As long as China supports the left-wing forces, this kind of ending will happen.At present, half of the people who may be involved in the future regime are unreliable, especially those low-born ultra-left guerrillas from the southeast. Their participation in political reconciliation is more of Chinese influence.Charmain had a premonition that sooner or later these people would raise the banner of secession again and embark on the road of separatism, regardless of whether they had the support of the Chinese.

Charman himself did not have a good opinion of Speaker Gandhi. He had been collecting intelligence for a long time and mastered the inside story of the corruption of many political families. This was one of the reasons.In fact, their family has always been a stumbling block to India's prosperity.On the contrary, he has always looked at Kahan differently. Since Kahan came to power, India has a new look, but he does not regret the unfeeling words just said.Kahan's gamble has failed, he will not die, and India's future is out of the question.

The sound of gunfire sounded not far away, and short machine gunshots sounded from the same direction soon. The resistance continued, but the city would soon fall.

His satellite phone rang suddenly, and he pressed the call button, and it turned out to be Gandhi's mournful cry: "Are you coming or not? Those barbarians are only a few hundred meters away from me. The nearby troops are all retreating. There will be no one to protect me."

"Mr. Speaker, you can rest assured that the Chinese will not attack my car when I arrive at your place within 5 minutes."

He was pretty sure of that, the Chinese spies in the city should have known about the foreign ministry vehicle he was driving.To a certain extent, he and his opponent have already had a showdown, and the Chinese know his cards, so they will not overturn the table.

"It's up to you, the damn U.S. embassy is out of calls, thanks to Kahan, we've finally gotten to this point...then I'm so glad those stupid voters who voted for Kahan are now finally paying the price."

Before Gandhi could finish complaining, Charmain turned off the phone.He noticed that there were troops everywhere on the street, a small number looked downcast, but more morale was high, and it seemed that the final battle was still going to be fought.

Western journalists have noticed the continuous attacks, all launched from the east of New Delhi, and the attacks were all positions armed by the BJP. The Chinese army did not attack the north much. The Indian Army even occupied a large outlying position in the north. For half a month Neither change.

So the media quickly began to speculate that the Indian Army had already begun to negotiate peace with the Chinese, which is of course natural.War correspondents found that large numbers of refugees were fleeing the war zone, crossing the quiet front and moving to the Chinese army control area.The influx of refugees even hindered the offensive of the Chinese army in the south, and the fighting had to be stopped, and the Chinese army began to evacuate and resettle the refugees instead.There are also a large number of Indian soldiers who secretly took off their uniforms and joined the ranks of refugees.

Yahini restricted his hands not to fire at the crowd fleeing hundreds of meters away. His tolerance caused many Indian refugees to make an inch of it, dragging their families through his eyes and running to the area occupied by the Chinese in the south.

Many soldiers are ready to move, hoping to at least frighten those Indians with parallel machine guns.Many recruits under Yahini were also members of the fleeing crowd not long ago, escaping from the edge of the Indian tank force, but time has passed, and now the Indians no longer have tanks, and they have taken the initiative. The change in status has made They were tempted to inflict a little revenge; but Yahini had ordered that anyone shooting civilians would be court-martialed.He has some sympathy for the refugees with their families, and he is very disdainful of the indiscriminate bombardment of houses by Amir's troops with heavy artillery last night, but most of the Pakistani troops followed suit and joined in this brutal battle Obviously, such behavior will make the Pakistani army lose its justice, and the enemy's resistance will become stronger.

Rahman reminded Yahini that there might be enemy scouts hidden among the refugees. Yahini asked the tankers to shoot as a warning only when the civilians were too close, and to hit the sky.

He believes that even if there are reconnaissance personnel, it will have no effect. The enemy will not judge his next move just because he saw his starting position. The advantage of the armored force is to attack. As long as it moves, the previous intelligence will be invalid. .

He continued to ask Rahman to urge other tanks to replenish ammunition and fuel, and he continued to operate a drone to spy on the enemy's deployment as an offensive party.However, due to the bright sky, it is difficult for drones to secretly peek at the enemy, and they are often shot down within a few streets.

The small drone continued to break through the enemy's line of defense and flew forward. There were almost no armored vehicles on the street, and they were probably hidden underground.As he turned in the direction of the Self-Defense Forces headquarters, the drone was shot down again.

There was no time to continue reconnaissance. Younis sent an order that the ceasefire across the board would end in 15 minutes. At that time, all Pakistani troops would rejoin the battle. The main goal was to further compress the area controlled by the enemy, preferably to further divide the enemy.

In the next offensive, the most valuable prize is the Prime Minister of India, there is a lot of information that this bastard is still in the basement of the Prime Minister's Palace on Dashhauer Street, shamelessly continuing to live in the world, surrounded by a large number of diehard self-defense The army guards.

"Company commanders, let's head west and head straight to the headquarters of the Self-Defense Forces." Yahini issued an order over the radio.

"Why don't we attack the prime minister directly?" Rahman asked.

"The enemy's defenses in the government area are very tight. Now is not the time. Let Amir and other divisions go and have a look first. I am optimistic that Amir can do it."

Most of the commanders were disappointed with Yahini's order, but it was a good thing to be able to attack the headquarters of the Self-Defense Forces. Only Tasim realized that Yahini might have some reasons for doing this. He wanted to go to the Chinese embassy to see Look at the tank that was pulled by the Indians for exhibition.Of course, it is unlikely that he really wants Amir to succeed. He should be very confident that Amir will not be able to win a few streets near the Prime Minister's Office.

Yahini's tanks moved at the same time, passing through 3 adjacent parallel streets in parallel, and headed towards the goal designated by Yahini. Through sufficient terrain reconnaissance, he made a fast forward plan and did not allow tanks to stop on the street. Form congestion.The distance between single workshops is maintained at 80 to 100 meters. This distance does not hinder mutual coverage, but on the contrary makes it difficult for the defender to take care of each other.Tanks are moving quickly on several streets at the same time, which is very disadvantageous to the defenders. They cannot mobilize their troops to focus on defense, and they are threatened by two sides at any time.

Rumbling tank engines roared, and as soon as they started, the enemy's anti-materiel weapons hiding in the distance began to shoot at the optical equipment on the top of the turret.Several Chinese armed helicopters began to shoot at the hiding enemy snipers from 2 kilometers away, sometimes using machine gun bursts, and sometimes using anti-tank missiles.Recent experience has shown that it may be more practical to use anti-tank missiles to attack those snipers on the roof who move from time to time. Even if they hide behind some solid bunker, a missile will still go through the wall and hit hard.

The 1st company commanded by Yahini broke through the entire street of enemies at the fastest speed, throwing the firepower of the unresponsive enemies behind in one fell swoop, and the 3rd company that arrived later used the top-mounted weapon station to ruthlessly target those exposed firepower. hit hard.However, the 3rd Battalion, which was mostly novices, still ran into trouble. They were not decisive enough in their critical actions. They were hit by the enemy's rocket launchers several times and slowed down unconsciously, which gave the enemy a chance to counterattack calmly.

According to Yahini's experience, it is worthwhile to rush to the front recklessly, even if he does not hesitate to expose the vulnerable rear of the tank, which will make the opponent feel uncomfortable.

Those tank crews who don't have a long memory were once again blocked on the road by the enemy the next day.The company commander misjudged that hiding under the building can avoid the shooting range of the enemy's rocket launcher, and it is unlikely that the enemy will stick out more than half of his body to launch the rocket.But the situation deteriorated rapidly, and Indian soldiers hiding on the building began to throw Molotov cocktails.

The Molotov cocktail is a primitive weapon with a very short throwing distance, but if it is thrown on the fence of the engine intake passage, it will cause a fire, and the engine will be reimbursed in a short time.

The Indian army relied entirely on missiles and bazookas in the early days of the defensive war, but now that these weapons are starting to be in short supply, the Self-Defense Forces have begun to use Molotov cocktails in accordance with the instructions of American advisers.

The tank was forced under the building along the street, with no upward vision at all. The crew hiding inside could only hear the sound of bang bang, and then the internal fan started to start, trying to expel the choking smoke that poured in, but No one realized what was going on.

A platoon leader ventured to lift the top cover. He saw a skinny child on top of his head, using a lighter to ignite a wine bottle. He took out his pistol and prepared to shoot, but the dexterous boy scout moved faster and threw a Molotov cocktail directly. into the tank.Suddenly, all members and ammunition were set ablaze.

Terrible calls filled Yahini's radio station, and he knew that an attack had gone wrong again.Fortunately, he had a backup plan. In front of the Indian Army Hospital, he made a turn and pounced on his trapped tank.Due to the full use of mobility, the surrounding enemies have no time to react.At the same time, the Air Force began dropping laser-guided bombs based on laser pointers from drones.After Lin Huaisheng severely reprimanded the Pakistan Air Force for its abuse of firepower, Sami's air force began to restrain itself slightly, reducing the number of sorties and switching to precision-guided weapons.The days when everyone could fly to New Delhi and play wild are over.

Within 10 minutes, Yahini lost another 6 tanks, but the most difficult moment finally passed. He quickly controlled both ends of the street and blocked the enemy's way.

Under his scolding, the trapped tank began to speed up, and the enemy's Molotov cocktails lost their aim and fell on the street, forming pools of flames.The infantry fighting vehicles that were blocked in the rear displayed their firepower proudly. They used 73mm caliber artillery to shoot at the windows on both sides of the street, quickly suppressing the enemy.

Suddenly surrounded from both sides, the defenders were in a state of panic.This is what Yahini expected when he developed a quick penetration tactic.

The enemy infantry lost their composure and began to flee from the ruins. They immediately became a live target for the crossfire of various armored vehicles in the streets and alleys. Soon Yahini's tanks controlled all 3 streets. Within 20 minutes, he rushed to the open area of ​​Nehru Park, and the Self-Defense Forces headquarters was already in sight, and it was time to force the enemy to dispatch tanks.

Lieutenant General Muyar hid various tanks in the underground garages of commercial buildings in the downtown area. This is an excellent way to avoid air raids, but the tank groups are scattered in these underground facilities, and radio communication is hindered.At the last moment, these tanks could not be assembled to form a combat force.

The drones in the sky calmly stared at every street to provide early warning for Yahini's tanks.Several T90 tanks in field camouflage rolled out from under the leaden gray central government building and were quickly spotted by drones.Yahini got the target designation almost simultaneously.He ordered all surrounding tanks to point their guns at 2 o'clock before dispatching Rahman to outflank the enemy from behind the central government building.

The enemy tank soldiers are by no means fuel-efficient lights. They did not rashly appear from the direction pointed by the tank's muzzle. The company commander on the leading command vehicle stuck his head out from the turret and called the nearby infantry to get on the vehicle. He just came out of the underground garage. When the eyes are darkened, you must first understand the enemy's situation around you.

A laser-guided bomb dropped from the sky by a drone blew up the leading tank and an army lieutenant who climbed into the tank.

The Chinese drone operators who are 300 kilometers away already have a set of identification methods, which can determine the location of the command vehicle from various signs of the enemy tank group, and even have a very accurate grasp of the timing of the attack.The operator did not drop the bomb immediately, but waited for an infantryman to climb onto a tank in the queue, which was obviously the company commander's vehicle.

This blow completely disrupted the enemy's deployment. The enemy tanks lost the ability to coordinate with the infantry, and also lost the courage to continue fighting. The formation began to become disorganized.

Rahman's company circled around from behind and began firing curved grenades at enemy anti-aircraft weapons on nearby buildings, while also trying to alert nearby tanks.

Yahini took the lead and met the enemy from the front.Tasim stared at the burning T90.Seeing a cannon swaying left and right behind the smoke, when the gunner knows that the enemy is close at hand, but does not know the exact position, he often makes this kind of blind horizontal movement, which is a sign of excessive nervousness.

Yahini instructed the driver to slow down and slowly and steadily bring the tank into range.Tasim opened fire at a distance of 150 meters, immediately destroying the second tank.
