Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 388 The Sword Hanging in the Air

The terrified Indian artillery climbed over the pile of rubble as high as a person and fled outward.The battalion commander stood on the top of the mountain in the distance, silently counting the number of people. He saw that the wounded were finally carried out, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

"Good job, it's not in vain for me to conduct emergency evacuation drills every month."

"Lieutenant Colonel, if we just give up our position, the headquarters will send us to court-martial?"

"Hmph, Chaguye is a fool, he's just pretending to be smart. I'll state everything in court. It's pointless to hold on. I won't let my people stay here to die."

As soon as the Lieutenant Colonel finished speaking, there was a huge roar of a turbofan engine from the east. Everyone looked up and searched, but they didn't see any aircraft approaching in the air, but the approaching roar became more and more clear. behind the mountain.

"Go, it's a missile."

Seeing a missile with its wings unfolded turned around the hill at a very slow speed, and headed towards the entrance of the headquarters. It corrected the search route according to the strapdown inertial navigation and Beidou passive data, and also had terrain matching guidance in the middle and end. It is one of the most accurate weapons of the Chinese military at present.In terms of accuracy, it surpasses weapons that simply use any of these technologies, and it has a horizontal strike capability that laser-guided bombs do not have. It is quite good at dealing with some of the air force's headaches. high.

The missile successfully found the gap at the bottom of the mountain according to the established route. It controlled its attitude and flew straight over.When it crashed into the cave, one side of the missile wing was destroyed, but the missile body still flew into the narrow hole for more than ten meters, hit the rock at the corner, and the warhead exploded; it went deeper than the previous TV-guided missile .

The explosion equivalent was large enough to completely destroy the rock support structure near the entrance of the cave, and the entire cave collapsed.The drone quietly flew over the mountain pass 2.5 kilometers away, and took pictures of the entire process of the attack. The data was synchronously transmitted to the forward relay station, and then sent to the headquarters.

The subsequent second missile destroyed part of the surface due to the explosion, causing the terrain matching guidance to fail to find the hole. It hit a mountain and exploded 20 meters away on one side, blowing up a bunch of communication command vehicles concentrated and concealed here.The third, which arrived last, also failed to hit any worthwhile targets.However, judging from the captured images, the hole no longer exists, and a part of the rock above the mountain has completely rolled down. Several officers who watched the video in the military staff headquarters were soon confirming that the target had destroyed the document. signed.The file was then in the hands of the commander. He also watched the video of the attack. Based on his previous experience as an artilleryman, this level of damage was obviously sufficient; this time, Chaguye was about to cry again.

Lieutenant General Chaguye was furious at the headquarters and instructed the military police to arrest the commander of the unit immediately, but even this was of no avail. Before the battle in the Arunachal area started, two of the most powerful He has a lot of artillery and air defense units, but most of them are old equipment, and those with high maneuverability are really precious. After all, why deploy a mobile unit in such a place? A dead place?This is the most difficult thing for his soldiers to understand.

This tornado unit is the treasure he prepared to save when the frontal enemy gathers to deal heavy damage. He even dreamed of destroying the strength of a regiment-level unit of the People's Liberation Army with a single cover, but he lost this gamble again. It's still very thorough.

"How did they spy on this information? It's impossible?"

"Commander, it's too close to Tawang. Maybe the Tibetans there tipped off the news. These Tibetans and Moinbas are unreliable." The staff officer could only gently remind him that the artillery deployment was too far forward.

"It makes sense. Let the artillery regiment of the 56th Division withdraw from the original position and turn back to the standby position. Then transfer the air defense regiment of the 57th Division to strengthen the defense of the road area south of the Dawang River."

"What about the Imphal area? The natives there are rebelling?" The staff officer reminded that after the 56th type was withdrawn, the 57th division could no longer suppress the separatist forces there, and now it is going to withdraw another regiment to Dawang.

"The top priority is China. Those thugs can only be dealt with slowly in the future. Send a report to the 57th Division and ask them to stick to important strongholds and shrink their troops in unnecessary areas; in addition, tell the garrison command of the autonomous state to stop recruiting troops locally. Let those leftists, get in."

"Statistics from the intelligence department show that as of yesterday, we lost 4 weapons there, 3 police stations, 20 internal affairs force strongholds were occupied, as well as train stations, bus stations, schools, etc."

"As long as they can't collude with the Chinese in Zayu, it's just a small problem, and they will be wiped out in the future."

The helicopter that Lin Huaisheng and several entourages took slowly landed at the foot of Linzhi’s 2500-meter-high snow-capped mountain. In view of the frequent activities of nearby enemy agents, no one came to pick him up, so the local army only sent a car to take him to several positions. have a look.Instead of going directly to the top of the mountain to look at the radar, he drove to several nearby air defense positions.

After several months of comparative investigations, the intelligence department concluded that the actual effectiveness of this high-altitude radar is five times higher than that of an early warning aircraft, and the detection of the Rafale Squadron taking off from the base in Bihar will also It is more far-reaching, so it is necessary to strengthen the defense.

The main air defense task is undertaken by a Red Flag 16 position.A few months ago, when the 222 Squadron launched a cross-border sneak attack, this radar did not have real defense capabilities. At that time, the main air defense capabilities were concentrated on the LS, but Tiger Shark Squadron succeeded by luck.The damage caused by the TV-guided missile was not great. In fact, the radar was repaired a long time ago, but in order to paralyze the enemy in front of it, and also to avoid provoking repeated attacks by the enemy before the air defense facilities were in place, it has not been used again.Well now, there is already a complete defense system with far and near around this phased array radar.

The Hongqi 16 missile positions will be guarded by long-range 3-coordinate radars, which have extremely high damage capabilities to targets in various airspaces; in addition, several mobile 7-tube 30mm artillery companies have also been deployed in the counties of Nyingchi and Milin , and towed twin-barreled 35mm anti-aircraft guns. These weapons are deployed in echelons according to the terrain, controlling various low-altitude penetration channels that the enemy may appear. With the support of long-range radar, their countermeasure effectiveness will be doubled. If India Dare to use the trick of low-altitude penetration, it is very likely that there will be no return.

The main anti-missile mission is shared by the S300 system in the far-reaching area and the Red Flag 16. However, due to the poor effectiveness of India's tactical ballistic missiles, the real threat may come from cruise missiles with supersonic penetration capabilities; but these weapons have limited range. It needs to be at least close to Tespur before it can be used, it is not easy to hide, and can be handed over to the Air Force for monitoring and control; and a large number of anti-aircraft anti-aircraft artillery groups have been added to the entire front as a supplement, especially the 8-tube near-fire capability on a large number of 8X7 wheeled chassis, In theory, it can effectively damage cruise missiles and low-altitude aircraft; another advantage of these near-defense weapons derived from naval equipment is that they have certain mobility, but the specific performance of these new equipment has not yet been tested in actual combat. checked.

What Lin Huaisheng is most interested in is not the maneuverable missiles or the rotating tube close-in anti-aircraft guns, but the towed double-tube 35mm anti-aircraft artillery positions.Although he has the spectrum of a former enemy officer, he can't see the reason for most of the anti-aircraft weapons, but he has some understanding of these semi-old and outdated systems improved by the Oerlikon system.When he was in Quetta, several 35mm artillery positions were deployed nearby.He also saw with his own eyes the Mirage 2000 fighter that was shot down by these towed artillery. The plane was just knocked down by a short burst; while the wreckage of the plane was beaten to pieces, blooming everywhere, but there were no traces of direct penetration, all of which were shot down. Fragment damage; but how accurate is the proximity control of this artillery?He knows that India has several elite attack aircraft units that are best at low-altitude penetration, and as long as this artillery is deployed properly, it is definitely enough for those elite pilots to drink a pot.Such a situation is almost certain to happen. The radar on the top of the mountain is a sharp sword hanging over the headquarters of the Indian Army in Tispur. After dozens of hours, when the radar is turned on, Chaguye will find that he has completely He has lost his privacy; at that time, he will definitely use all means to attack it. The gust and the low-altitude raid of the MiG 27 are the killers he may think of at the first time. Lin Huaisheng is looking forward to the mighty gust of the Tiger Shark Squadron. To the iron wall.

Lin Huaisheng couldn't help but glanced at his watch. In twenty hours, the radar would start operating. He turned around and said to the commanding officer of the air defense position accompanying him: "The enemy will rush over desperately. Last time they were It came out suddenly from the Medog Mountains."

The commander sneered, "I can't wait any longer."

"Well, a communication team has to be established on the mountain, and the pilot must be caught as soon as possible."

"Hehe, you don't have to worry about this."

Lin Huaisheng nodded in satisfaction. His military rank is not high, and it is easy to be frustrated when he dictates on the front line.However, the eagerness of the frontline soldiers to fight moved him very much.

When he returned to the temporary airport, someone sent him the latest battle situation in Pakistan. Now he has become a key player. Souyi will get the latest frontline situation every few hours, whether it is "Quetta" , "Lehs" direction, or "Tezpur".

According to the report, the Indian army has completely captured the entire coast of Pakistan. A new problem India has encountered is that the "President of the Baluchistan Republic" that was just supported in Karachi not long ago was not welcomed by the local tribes. , Now the position is awkward; neither the United States nor Iran is willing to recognize the "president" as a whole. They have each found local agents and tried to subdivide their spheres of influence. Kahan may make major concessions to the United States on this issue.

In other news, Spanga's tank force, moving a little faster than expected, cut off the entire southern approach to Quetta.About 5 Pakistani army soldiers and 2500 Chinese soldiers are surrounded in the south. The Chinese army will transfer to Central Asia and return to China through the Iranian channel.In addition, the Iranian government claimed that in order to prevent the Pakistani government forces in the encirclement from being inhumanely retaliated against, they will accept the government forces who have laid down their weapons.

It seems that Iran is determined to get involved in this mess. This is good news, because she will definitely not cooperate with the United States or India.Lin Huaisheng was always worried about Yahini's fate. He didn't know what happened to this sergeant who could fight well?When it comes time to counter-offensive, an experienced armored force is available.

Shamsi's airport is also surrounded. Although it is still fighting, it is inevitable to give up. From then on, the Indian Navy will lose its final check and balance in the Indian Ocean.The United States and India have classified the airport into the sphere of influence of the United States through private grants and acceptances. Of course, these airports were originally built with the money of the Americans.Lin is not too worried about the Chinese Air Force there, they will always find a way to retreat.

The last piece is bad news. The Indian Navy has intercepted 50 Chinese ships in the Indian Ocean, half of which are ships flying the flags of other countries. They will tow the ships to the nearest Indian port and detain them forcibly; now a large number of cargo ships are taking refuge in The port of the Gulf and West African countries waits for further changes in the situation, or bypasses the South China Sea from the south to avoid the Indian Navy; The country condemned, but the United States did not express its position, and seemed to be interested in observing the development of the situation.
