The paint handover came just right, at this time, Rurajapani was discussing the situation with several teams...

This is the result of our deduction of the Eastern Front War." Stark took out two documents and handed them to Rurajapani together, saying, "In addition, General Duchiwei's analysis and predictions on what happened today. I hope that the Prime Minister and the generals can pay attention to it.

Although Duchway has stepped down from his military post, Stark is still used to calling him "General"

Rurajapani glanced at the two documents, picked up the Duchiwei's one, handed the wargame deduction one to Gujarad, who was sitting on his left hand, instead of Fernandez, who was sitting on his right hand.

Stark took the Indian Prime Minister's inadvertent action in his eyes.

Although Fernandez is still the chief of staff of the Indian army, after the Indian Navy was wiped out, Fernandez has lost his original position. Even though Rurajapani did not withdraw his post as Ernandez. In the case of ground war, Gujarad has become India's highest military commander.

After reading Duchiwei's analysis and prediction, Rurajapani breathed a sigh of relief and saw Gujarad's expression not saying a word. He turned his eyes to Stark sitting opposite him.

The American colonel took out the cigarette quietly, and the two documents had already explained the problem thoroughly and he no longer said too much.

The thugs fight. Or should they take the initiative to retreat?”

The "original plan" mentioned by Rurajapani was actually the combat plan adjusted by the Indian Army Command after the Blue Army and the Joo Army entered the battlefield. Although Stark did not participate in the command of the Indian Army Command, based on the information he had, the Indian Army had given up the idea of ​​entering Bangladesh. In addition to the Second Army going north to support the First Army to attack Jishengenje at full speed, the Third Army will set up defenses in the eastern part of West Bengal, that is, the lower reaches of the Ganges, to prevent possible access to the road.

Bangladesh attacked the Chinese army in West Bengal. The Northeast Army group left behind in the eastern region gave up the combat operations of besieging Siliguri. They raided the Chinese army in the eastern region by breaking the whole into pieces and restrained as much of the main force of the Chinese army as possible. Because of the serious shortage of troops and unable to support large-scale combat operations in both directions, the Indian Army planned to draw the old one from the Western Front battlefield to occupy a main force. Before August, the occupation date was held to meet a reserve division formed by retired soldiers.

The core idea of ​​the entire set of combat plans is very clear: use the offensive actions in the direction of Jischengenjie to restrain two to three armies of the Chinese Army, defend West Bengal in the first stage of the battle, and strive to achieve strength on August 2018. That is, the main area of ​​the Ganges Plain before the first stage of the war was completed, and then use the thugs obtained from the first stage of the war to gain an absolute advantage in the Eastern Front battlefield, and finally annihilate the Chinese army entering the Ganges Plain.

Like the core idea, the shortcomings of this combat plan are also prominent.

First of all, can the offensive actions in the direction of Jischengenjie achieve the goal of restraining the Chinese army by 2 to 3 kilograms. Although according to optimistic estimates, the First Army and the Second Army still have about 10,000 troops. As long as they attack with all their strength, the Chinese Army can force more defensive troops in the direction of Jischengenjie, but from a deeper perspective, there are only 6 main divisions of the First Army and the Second Army, and the rest are second-line divisions and reserve divisions. The actual combat effectiveness is far less beautiful than the number of troops. More importantly, after the previous round of battle, the morale of the Indian army was frustrated. The morale of the guard Jischengenjie's sword army was greatly boosted. With one decline and the other rising, whether the Indian army can defeat the sword army with only 30,000 troops is a problem. If the offensive actions in the direction of Jischengenjie cannot achieve the goal, Pei Chengyi can use more troops to launch an attack, thus completely failing the strategic defense plan of the Indian Army Command.

Secondly, how much of the defense line built by the Third Army in the eastern part of West Bengal can play. Although the total strength of the Third Army exceeds 10,000 and has not been hit by the previous battle. The seven main divisions are complete, the Third Army is organized according to the task of attacking Bangladesh. Whether it can perform normally in defensive operations is first of all. More importantly, the defense front width of the Third Army exceeds 4,000 meters. Defensive troops are deployed in the way of at least two defense lines. The front line of the defense line is only as dense as a person per kilometer. It is necessary to eliminate the defensive operations.

The reserve team, the density of the troops per kilometer will not exceed four people. Obviously, this defense density is too low. If you are facing the ground armored troops of the Chinese army, there is still the cost of fighting to the death; if you are facing the airborne troops of the Chinese army, such a low defense density will only be annihilated by the opponents. The Third Army cannot defend the right wing of the front line. The First Army and the Second Army that attacked Jischengje will face the danger of being divided and surrounded by the Chinese army, and the Third Army will eventually face the danger of being surrounded and annihilated by the Chinese army. The Indian Army's combat strategy "has no feasibility."

Again, the Northeast Army Group cannot play a role in restraining the main force of the Chinese Army. Because the Chinese Army did not fight in the eastern part of India, and did not even send a suppression team to capture the land except Siliguri, and lost air supremacy. Bian said. It is impossible to deal with the Chinese army passing through the air. The most important thing is that after the Northeast Army Group is broken into pieces, India will soon lose the entire eastern part. The war reached this point, when the Northeast Army Group was in the northeast Army Group.

The area is the most difficult. Although the hoarded combat materials can last for a few months, the morale of the Indian army will be seriously affected after being isolated from the local area. If the troops are broken into pieces, no one can guarantee that there will be no soldiers passing away or deserters. There is even no guarantee that the Indian army that is dispersed will not surrender to the Chinese army. In other words, the dispersed operation will fundamentally disintegrate the command structure of the Northeast Army Group of India, and eventually lead to the complete collapse of the Northeast Army Group.

Then, the Indian Army, who had great hopes, can the main division of the Western Front participate in combat operations on the Eastern Front before August occupying the day. From the Western Front to the Eastern Front, the transportation capacity of India is not a problem, but the safety of transportation is definitely a problem. Whether relying on the railway for strategic maneuvers or on the road for combat maneuvers, the air threat must be considered first. Pei Chengyi has already put on the stance of annihilation of the Indian Army's eastern army group. How can the Indian Army increase its troops to the Eastern Front? More importantly, the military strength on the Western Front is also very tight, even if the Indian Army Command makes up its mind.

At most, the main infantry divisions are dispatched to the Eastern Front battlefield, and it is impossible to draw armored divisions. Considering the huge risk of railway maneuvers, the main infantry division of the Indian Army is likely to travel to the Eastern Front battlefield in a combat maneuverable manner. In this way, it will take about 3 days for the three-way infantry divisions to reach the Eastern Front battlefield. The fleet carrying combat supplies will arrive at Chittagong at the old night. The Marines departing from Cam Ran Bay will reach the center of two Indian-Bangladesh railways at the thugs. In other words, when the Indian reinforcements arrive, the battle has already begun. Even if the reinforcements can be put into combat immediately, several infantry divisions cannot turn the situation around.

Finally, the Indian Army is regarded as a life-saving straw to the blade pound, whether the reserve division can be successfully formed. In fact, Stark believes that the establishment of the reserve division is not the key, the key is how strong the reserve division is. Although India does not lack excellent retired soldiers, nor does it lack the basic weapons and equipment to arm these soldiers. However, even the main divisions of the Indian Army are not the opponent of the Chinese army. How can those reserve divisions whose combat power is not even as good as the second-line divisions to defeat the Chinese army? Human power is no longer the key factor that determines the victory or defeat of a war. When the combat power does not meet the basic requirements, no matter how much manpower is invested, it cannot turn the situation around. Even if the Indian Army gradually invests in the first phase of war mobilization after August, Tian Geshi, the thug who has successively invested in the first phase of war mobilization, will only increase casualties for India and will not cause too much trouble to the Chinese army.

In Stark's view, the Indian Army Command was too ideal when formulating a combat plan.

When he came into contact with Rulajapani's gaze, Stark hesitated for a moment and said, "I must not take the initiative to retreat. Even if I do not consider the eastern region, I must consider the Ganges Plain."

In fact, Stark was not trying to say this.

If we do not consider political factors and purely stand on the military's standpoint, Stark will suggest that Rurajapani immediately fight guerrilla warfare on the eastern battlefield, dispatch some troops, especially the main infantry division, to various towns and villages in company battalions, distribute weapons and equipment to civilians, form regional guerrillas, and use guerrillas to drag down the Chinese army. You should know that during World War II, the Chinese guerrillas restrained the gills of the Japanese troops stationed in China. That is, the total force of the Japanese army in World War II; the US military suffered the losses of the guerrillas in the Vietnam War, the Iraq War, the Afghan War and the Iran War, and did not find an effective way to deal with the guerrillas.

The problem is that Stark is the highest military adviser to India and represents the US Secretary of Defense. Political factors cannot be ignored.

At least so far, Stark has not seen the basic force for the large-scale guerrilla warfare in India. The main reason is that the Indian civilians' eyes on this war are completely different from the government. Siliguri and Jischengje occupied by the Chinese army. The local residents not only did not spontaneously resist the invaders, but instead accepted the invaders calmly. Some Indians who had previously interacted with China even volunteered to serve the Chinese army and provide services to the Chinese army. Without the support of the people, there would be no capital to launch guerrilla warfare. Except for the people's attitude

In addition to the degree, India's complex ethnic composition is also a big problem. In the eastern region of India, there are several ethnic independent armed forces. Even in the Ganges basin, where the majority of Hindustans are, there are many ethnic minorities who want to gain independence or autonomy. Take West Bengal as an example, the Bengals with a population of about 10,000 have been trying to get rid of India, incorporate into Bangladesh, or establish an independent Bangladesh state. If India releases military power at this time and allows the people to possess weapons, it is probably the Chinese army that will suffer first.

Rurajapani breathed a long sigh and seemed to hear the inner meaning of Stark's words.

"You can't retreat, you can only continue to attack." Gujarad closed the document in his hand and said, "The situation is very clear. If we don't attack, the Chinese army will advance. Our army's strength will be far ahead to attack the Chinese army, but our army's battlefield aircraft is not as good as the Chinese army. That is to say, on a vital local battlefield, the Chinese army can rely on powerful tactics and combat maneuverability to gain dual advantages in military strength and firepower. Passive defense can only put our army in a passive situation of being beaten. The only solution is to restrain the Chinese army through attack. As Colonel Stark and General Duqiwei repeatedly emphasized, the biggest problem of the Chinese army is that logistics support is unsustainable. As long as the combat materials of the Chinese army can be consumed, the Chinese army can delay the attack time and gain more opportunities for us."

Hearing Gujarad's words, Stark's view of the Indian Army Chief of Staff changed.

No matter how big the mistake Gujarad made before, this analysis was very impressive. To be precise, the previous method analysis was very good, but the latter method analysis ignored a crucial issue. In defensive operations, the main defense method of the Chinese army is not troops, or even front-line defense forces, but long-range support forces. Whether it is long-range artillery deployed in Sikkim or tactical aviation deployed in China, there is no need to worry about logistics support. In other words, the Chinese army can rely entirely on the powerful firepower provided by the support force to deal with the attacking Indian army. In the face of firepower strikes, who can guarantee that those Indian infantry with only rifles dare to fight against the Chinese army? If there are heavy casualties in the attack, who can guarantee that the Indian officers and soldiers will not be defeated thousands of miles?

From another perspective, if Stark stood in Pei Chengyi's position, he also hoped that the Indian army would attack Jishengenjie fiercely.

War is so cruel that the enemy will never fight with their own shortcomings.

Rurajapani turned his attention to Stark again, and seemed to hope that the American consultant could provide more advice.

Stark hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't oppose the attack, but I can't put all the forces into the attack. According to our prediction, in three days, the Chinese army will launch a general attack. Although it is very challenging for Pei Chengyi to complete all the preparations for the general attack within three days, time is also in a hurry for the Indian army. The biggest problem with the Indian army is not that the insufficient troops are insufficient, but that the troops are all concentrated on the outer defense line. There is almost no defensive force in the rear. Although until now, Pei Chengyi has not used the most strategic assault airborne army on a large scale, but we have enough

The reason is believed that Pei Chengyi is preparing for the use of the airborne army. There is no doubt that the airborne troops will not participate in frontal combat. The main task is to cut off the contact channels between the Indian army's front-line combat troops and the rear, and assist the main attacking troops in segmentation and surround the Indian army. Judging from the current defense deployment of the Indian army, there is almost no way to prevent the Chinese airborne army from landing in the rear, and there is no way to annihilate the airborne troops that appear in the rear. The previous wars showed that as long as the Chinese airborne troops appeared in the rear of the front line, China's ground forces will launch a fierce attack on the frontal battlefield and eventually annihilate the enemy."

Gujarad's brow jumped a few times and said, "You mean, the first priority is to kill the Chinese airborne army?"

"It is not to kill China's airborne army, but to try to limit the combat operations of China's airborne army."

Stark said this very politely. He said it directly. It was the Indian army that did not have the ability to kill the Chinese airborne army. Gujarad was not a fool. He could hear what Stark meant at once and his face became ugly. In fact, Stark did not make any substantive suggestions because he could not make any substantive suggestions. Even if Stark's words were taken seriously, based on the actual situation, the Indian army had no ability to limit the Chinese airborne army.

The situation that India is facing now. Not to mention that senior Indian generals like Gujarad cannot find a solution, even Duqiwei, who is on the other side of the land, could not think of a feasible response. In the document transferred by Stark to the Indian Prime Minister, Duqiwei only mentioned the upcoming general offensive by Chinese military aircraft, and that the Indian army should fill the vacancy in the rear in a timely manner to deal with the Chinese army's large-scale attack with large-scale defense. In terms of specific measures, Duqiwei did not make any suggestions, nor even mentioned the actions that should be taken.

The key problem is that the Indian army lacks effective battlefield maneuverability.

After losing air supremacy, the actions of Indian ground forces were restricted. Although the Chinese Air Force was still focusing on bombing India's strategic goals, especially the industrial targets that were relocating to the south, and did not invest much force in battlefield support, as the general offensive began, Pei Chengyi would definitely adjust his air force, at least at the primary level of the battle to focus on bombing Indian ground forces, creating conditions for a large-scale attack.

If the air control problem cannot be solved, the Indian army will not be able to move safely.

If you cannot move, you will be unable to deal with Chinese airborne troops.

In fact, even if Duchwit and Stark made substantial suggestions, it was too late. The Indian army on the Eastern Front battlefield had already followed the deployment of the Indian Army Command, with the main forces concentrated on the frontier positions, and there were only a few second-line troops and reserves in the vast rear. Even if the Indian Army Command immediately adjusted its troops' deployment, as long as the Indian army mobilized on a large scale, Pei Chengyi would start the strike operation in the battle preparation stage in advance. That is, mobilizing the Indian army in the bombing movement to annihilate the live forces of the Indian army on a large scale.

Move is death, and not moving is death. The difference is just death early or late.
