Chapter 74 Opening

Modern information about the outbreak of stiffness, the mysterious brother of war is very irrelevant."

As India officially declared war on the Republic and Pakistan, the Indian army began to assemble on the Western and Eastern fronts, Quanshu News Media immediately turned its attention to the South Asian subcontinent...!

It has to be admitted that modern commercial remote sensing technology has reached an amazing height.

As the first war zone photo taken by European Resource Remote Sensing Satellite appeared on the Internet, those who had nothing to do with the war and were closely following the war began to analyze the situation on the battlefield. In order to capture the audience and increase the ratings, major news media spared no effort to introduce the situation of the war.

Among the major news media, the most representative one is definitely... and Al Jazeera.

After years of development, Al Jazeera has consolidated its local area in Western news media, and Al Jazeera has become the only international TV station that can compete with...

According to the analysis of..., India adopted a strategy of attacking and defending the east. In order to prove this view, several military experts were invited to comment on the spot with retired US generals and listed a lot of evidence. According to the analysis of a retired major general of the US Army, due to the overall situation and strength comparison, it is difficult for the Indian army to defeat the powerful Chinese army on the eastern battlefield. It can only place hope on the western battlefield, strive to defeat Pakistan as quickly as possible, consolidate the northwest region with New Delhi as the core, and then use its vast strategic depth to compete with the Chinese army on the eastern battlefield. Although this analysis makes some sense, such as the Indian army is not the opponent of the Chinese army, and New Delhi is also very important, but the US generals ignore a pound. A very important issue is that the Chinese army.

Strategic mobility. The main opponent of the Indian army is not the Pakistani army, but the Chinese army. If Pakistan is unable to defeat the Chinese army, India will not win the war even if Pakistan is eliminated. The Indian army adopts the strategy of "attacking the west and defending the east" and is undoubtedly avoiding the important points. This opens its eastern gates and gives the Chinese army the opportunity to drive in. As the Chinese army gains a foothold in the eastern battlefield, it will inevitably shift the direction of the offensive and focus on attacking New Delhi. With the strength of the two armies, if the Indian army cannot hold the Chinese army on the eastern battlefield, it will not be possible to defeat Pakistan before the Chinese army achieves a decisive victory. If the Chinese army wants to hold the Chinese army on the eastern battlefield, the most ideal way is not defense, but active attack. With the strength of the two sides, the Indian army has only one dead end to passive defense!

Banwu TV's judgment is completely contrary to that of Kantun. He believes that the Indian army has gathered troops in the west not to defeat Pakistan, but to create pressure on China and force China to divide its troops to rescue Pakistan, so as to get the opportunity to launch a counterattack on the eastern battlefield, delay the Chinese army's offensive pace, and gain enough time to complete the national war mobilization. At the same time, Al Jazeera also believes that China will not give up on Pakistan, and will definitely send several ground troops to Pakistan to defend its local defense line, at least it must prevent the Indian army from capturing Lahore and assaulting the hinterland of Pakistan.

After stabilizing the western battlefield, the Chinese army will launch a full-scale attack on the eastern battlefield without giving the Indian army any chance to breathe. In this way, if the Indian army wants to reverse the defeat, the only way is to launch an attack in both directions at the same time, with the interval not exceeding an hour, and the earlier the attack, the better.

While the two media were having a quarrel, some "neutral people" also commented on the Internet.

According to public and semi-public news, most commentators with certain military qualities believe that India will launch counterattacks in both directions, with the focus not on the Western Front, but on the Eastern Front. Whether India can reverse the defeat and whether it can take the initiative in the war is not the combat effectiveness of the Indian army or the defense capabilities of the Pakistani army, but the actions taken by the Chinese army. According to the analysis of some commentators, the Chinese army is most likely to adopt the "west defense and east attack" strategy, using the three armies that have reached Pakistan to help the Pakistani army defend the western defense line, and then dispatch the main force to launch a full-scale attack on the Eastern Front. Some commentators even believe that the Chinese army will not focus on capturing eastern India at the beginning of the battle, but will expand the scope of the attack, starting from Kyssenger, attack Indian towns in the lower reaches of the Ganges, and strive to push the front to the Bay of Bengal as quickly as possible and seize a certain port.

In any case, when the situation of the war is basically transparent, the actions of both sides can be speculated.

It is precisely because several super gambling institutions opened the market. Unlike the Fourth India-Pakistan War, not many people were optimistic about India, and almost everyone believed that the China-Pakistan coalition would win a big victory. Because after the opening, the odds of the China-Pakistan coalition soared to the above, so all gambling institutions stopped betting on the night of the 2nd.

This is true. India has made every effort to mobilize millions of ground troops; while China has only used 6 troops, and there are still nearly 100 million troops that have not been on the battlefield; Pakistan has only dispatched less than half of the ground troops and has enough reserves in its hands.

Large-scale ground battles begin. Without considering other factors, who has more reserve teams and who has greater hope of winning.

Regardless of the outside world's situation, the soldiers on the battlefield were not affected.

Although Pei Chengyi did not prohibit the participating troops from obtaining external information, and did not block the information source, the commander of the army, Major General Sai Biao, had no time to read news reports, and even did not have enough time to sleep.

On the night of the 2nd, the injured army arrived at the temporary battalion association in the north of Srinagar

According to the initial plan, the army would not participate in the war immediately. Only when the Indian army launched a counterattack could the army go to the battle. In fact, the lie army was also Fagu, and the soldiers would join the battle. If the soldiers were thugs in the Fangshmir region, "From, except for the combat troops, the support forces including the military artillery brigade and logistics brigade did not arrive. As a result, as soon as the troops settled, Sebbe received an order from the front line command center, requiring them to enter the combat state immediately, and be sure to replace the Pakistani army to siege Srinagar before 8:00 on the 3rd Islamabad time. Although the hit did not clearly mention that the wounded army must attack Srinagar immediately, according to Sai Biao's understanding, after besieging Srinagar, the army would soon enter the battle.

The problem now is that Sai Bingbiao must transfer other troops.

Sai Biao was dealing with this matter all night.

In order to get the Artillery Brigade, Logistics Brigade and Air Brigade to Srinagar in the early morning of the 3rd, Sai Biao not only sent out all the engineering troops of the army, but also took the shuttle bus to and flew back and forth several times on the front line and in the rear.

Real difficulties are always more severe than expected.

The main problem facing Sai Biao is that the traffic capacity of most roads and bridges in Kashmir is less than 2 tons. Although the combat weight of most main combat equipment is less than 2 tons, the weight of many supporting equipment is more than 2 tons. For the power supply devices assigned to each armored battalion, the main part, that is, the total mass of the fusion reactor power tank, exceeds 2 tons. The problem of roads is easy to solve, and the speed of exercise is reduced, and the dispatch of engineering troops, including Pakistan's engineering troops, can solve the problem. The key is bridges. Although there are not many rivers in the western region of Kashmir, the terrain is very complex and there are valleys everywhere. The way to build pontoon bridges is definitely not used, so only engineering troops can strengthen bridges, and in some places, engineering bridges must be temporarily built.

After grasping the actual situation, Sai Biao no longer put his own efforts into it.

Back at the military command, Sai Biao contacted the front line command and asked to provide the army with new power supply equipment as soon as possible to solve the power supply problems of front line troops.

The commander personally asked for help, indicating that the problem was very serious.

Yuan Chenhao did not dare to delay any delay, and sent a group of thugs to send the new power supply equipment that was originally provided to the airborne troops and the strategic response army to Srinagar.

The so-called "new power supply equipment" actually reduces the overall quality by reducing the output power and the number of interfaces, so that it can be airlifted with tactical transport aircraft, or accompanied by rapid assault attacks. Compared with the power supply equipment of the Heavy Armored Army, the support capacity of the new power supply equipment is reduced by more than 70%, and a set of equipment supports at most one armored battalion or one kilogram of artillery battalion.

Fortunately, because the combat losses of the airborne troops were higher than that of ordinary troops, the army reserved dozens of sets.

After obtaining the most important power supply equipment, Sai Biao immediately let the artillery brigade and logistics company leave behind the power supply equipment that he cannot take away and rush to the front line as fast as possible. After the combat troops arrived in the early stage built a temporary take-off and landing ground, the air brigade of the army began to transport combat supplies to the front line combat troops.

It has to be admitted that the military aviation brigade played a very critical role.

According to normal configuration, the heavy armored army like the army does not have an independent aviation brigade. When there is a need for combat, the army aviation will dispatch air force. Considering the actual situation on the battlefield, when deploying combat troops, Pei Chengyi concentrated the aviation troops that originally belonged to the army and army and formed an independent aviation brigade of the drilling army. Facts have proved that airlift forces are of great significance to mountain combat troops.

Before dawn on the 3rd, the wounded army began to exchange defense with the Pakistani army besieging Srinagar.

Because ammunition and drug supplies are mainly replenished by air transport, and the Pakistani army that was about to move south did not want to take away the remaining ammunition, Sai Biao found the front commander of the Pakistani army before dawn and asked the Pakistani army to withdraw the artillery in the end and use up all the remaining artillery shells before retreating.

Large-scale artillery bombardment starts at 6:00 on the 3rd.

Although the Indian army, who were standing in Srinagar, discovered an abnormal situation outside, under the suppression of artillery fire, the Indian army gave up the idea of ​​launching a counterattack when the Chinese and Pakistani troops switched defenses.

When the shelling was bombarded, the army had already entered the Pakistani position.

It was not until this time that Sai Biao Biao received a battle order from Yuan Chenhao. The wounded army continued to besiege Srinagar. Unless the Indian army launched a large-scale counterattack, the army could only launch an attack after receiving the order.

For Sai Biao, this is undoubtedly good news.

When the air brigade is only able to rely on the air brigade, the army can obtain at most Dankou stewed combat supplies every day. For defense operations, persuading ton of combat supplies is enough, but for offensive operations, the stewed supplies cannot even meet the early fire preparations. In other words, Sai Biao also needs enough time to reserve combat supplies.

Without taking the initiative to attack, the main task of the wounded army is to expand the rear position.

While the army's engineering soldiers were busy building artillery positions, material warehouses and military camps, they led the army and the army to Wazilabad on the morning of the 3rd.

Pei Chengyi personally met Lieutenant General Cai Suikang and Major General Tuziqi.

The army and army are both strategic reaction forces, that is, the main force that forms the Republic Army. Compared with heavy armored forces, the biggest feature of the strategic reaction forces is excellent combat and strategic maneuverability. Although the strategic reaction forces also have a large number of main combat equipment, the quality of their armored forces is not worse than that of heavy armored forces, but the number is relatively small, the logistics support system of the strategic reaction forces is more refined and has a larger proportion. In this way, under the same circumstances, the combat personnel of the strategic reaction forces are relatively small. The continuous and independent combat capabilities must be more prominent. After discussing the battlefield situation with the two commanders, Pei Chengyi personally issued a combat order.

The lead army stayed in Vozilabad for only 2 hours. After the troops completed the supply, they immediately headed to Lahore. Because the Pakistani army did not arrange a garrison for the lead army, Pei Chengyi sent engineers to Lahore to build a temporary camp in the southern suburbs of Lahore on the night of the 2nd.

What made Pei Chengyi a little headache was that the Pakistani army did not welcome the induction of the army.

Although according to the China-Pakistan Alliance Agreement, after the two countries enter a state of war, the Republic's army will provide necessary cooperation in Pakistan without damaging Pakistan's national security, the Pakistani generals unanimously agreed that the guided army should go to the Kashmir region to assist the army to attack Srinagar, rather than build a defensive position in Punjab Province.

In any case, Pei Chengyi did not delay the time leading the army. Shortly after the lead, the army left Vozilabad and rushed to Sahival further south.

Like the problems encountered in guiding the army, the main problem of the army is that there is no station site, and it has not discussed with the Ba army the sample drawing work of the defense zone.

After seeing off Major General Tuziqi away, Pei Chengyi contacted the Chief of Staff of the Pakistani Army, hoping that the Pakistani Army could provide the army with a garrison and let the army build a second line of defense behind the Pakistani Army.

At this time, the General Staff of the Pakistani Army also discovered the Indian army's mobilization and knew that the Indian army was about to launch an attack.

When the Republic was willing to provide help, the Pakistani army did not reject Pei Chengyi's request.

Of course, for the two strategic reaction troops, there is not much time left.

On the afternoon of the 3rd, Pei Chengyi received the latest report from the Military Intelligence Bureau. The Indian army gathered in the area east of Lahore had entered the offensive position and was expected to launch an attack within hours of the future.

This time, Pei Chengyi did not leave the Ba Jun alone.

After forwarding the information to the General Staff of the Pakistani Army, Pei Chengyi contacted the Chief of Staff of the Pakistani Army again and issued a warning in the clearest way.

"How is the situation?"

"It has attracted attention. The Pakistani army will enter the defensive position tonight." Pei Chengyi breathed a long sigh and let Yuan Chenhao sit down. "The problems of the Pakistani army are also quite prominent. Now the main forces of the Pakistani army are in the Kashmir region, and they can only reach Lahore in three days at the earliest. There is no doubt that the Indian army has mastered the deployment of the Pakistani army and knows that the Pakistani army cannot strengthen Lahore's defensive power before it launches an attack. According to my estimate, the Indian army will launch an attack in the early morning tomorrow, but before dawn tomorrow at the latest tomorrow.

"It's too urgent. You will definitely encounter big trouble when leading the army and the army."

Pei Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What I am worried about is that the army led the army and the army arrested several Indian troops crossing the border early this morning. The results of the interrogation are not much different from what we guess. The reserve team deployed to the east of Lahore, not the main force of the Indian army. Although the defense of the Pakistani army is not in place, with the ability of Cai Suikang and Tuzidi, the army led the army and the army will definitely seize the opportunity to launch a counterattack instead of passive defense."

"Then what you worry about is,"

"Sai Bingbiao." Pei Chengyi glanced at his deputy and said, "Until now, the army has not been prepared for an attack. According to the latest situation provided by Sai Bingbiao, it will take three days for the injured army to reserve sufficient combat supplies.

Yuan Chenhao frowned slightly and said, "Even if the two armies cannot defeat Srinagar, the impact will not be very big.

Pei Chengyi smiled and shook his head, saying, "From the overall situation of fighting, the importance of attacking Srinagar is not to defend Lahore. As long as the army conquers Srinagar, the Indian army has to retreat to the Bernighal Pass. In other words, there is no longer a suitable location for defense south of the Bernighal Pass. The army is defeated like a mountain. As long as the Indian army retreats from Srinagar, it is almost impossible to defend the Bernighal Pass, and Han Bingbiao will not let the Indian army retreat to the Bernighal Pass. The army has an independent aviation brigade. Before capturing Srinagar, Sai Bingbiao will occupy the Bernighal Pass in a low-altitude assault, encircle the Indian army to the north, and open the door to the northwest region of India. As long as the wounded army crosses the Bernighal Pass, the Indian army's attack in the direction of Lahore will be defeated without fighting.

Yuan Chenhao reacted suddenly, and at the same time showed a very admiration.

"We must avoid a tug-of-war with the Indian army in Pakistan. The more you fight, the greater the loss of Pakistan. Besides, our army's combat supplies are also very tight, and we are not allowed to fight a war of attrition with the Indian army. Whether the army can successfully capture Srinagar and capture the Bernhar Pass is related to the situation on the Western Front battlefield, Pei Chengyi rubbed his forehead and said, "You should contact the Air Force immediately to see if you can arrange more tactical air transport tonight and arrange more airdrops. You must do everything possible to provide enough combat supplies for the wounded army so that Sai Biao can launch an attack twenty-four hours after the Indian army launches an attack, that is, in the early morning of the fourth day."

"I'll make arrangements right away. Is there anything else?"

Pei Chengyi shook his head and said, "You are on duty tonight. After the battle begins, come and call me immediately.

Yuan Chenhao didn't say much and turned around and left Pei Chengyi's office.

After lying on the sofa, Pei Chengyi did not fall asleep.
