Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 470
Of course, such evasion has also destroyed the previous fire control calculations (horizontal bombing, the autopilot must be strictly maintained in level flight, so as to facilitate the computer to calculate the relative position of the target and the aircraft.)
The colonel realized that he intended to expose himself, and using the autopilot again to pass over the target at low altitude was almost fatal, because the enemy artillery below was quickly adapting to this rigid route, and the enemy gunners could clearly see the nozzles of the fighter jets overhead.

He simply made a somersault over the head of the enemy's anti-aircraft firepower. This deceleration action seemed reckless, but the enemy's anti-aircraft defense deployment was too concentrated, and he lost the firing angle almost at the same time.

Sammy knew roughly where the target was, in the middle of a ring of guns.He thought, how afraid of death should this commander be to deploy like this?

In the loose fire net, he swooped down almost vertically. When the altimeter showed 300 meters, he dropped 2 bombs with black eyes, and then pulled up rapidly.

When the bomb exploded, he looked back and it was thrown on the side of the three-story building impartially. The explosion destroyed half of the building, and he even saw the flagpole with the Indian flag hanging down.The shrapnel from the explosion silenced at least three guns on one side, and he accelerated quickly, leaving the barrage of other anti-aircraft guns behind.

When he left, he saw that there was already a firefight in the city, and the flames of explosions came and went one after another. It seemed that the militiamen lurking in the city had already started to fight back.

"Viper, the attack is complete. I can't see the position of No. [-], is it..."

"Unfortunately, Black Spider No. 7 was shot down."

"Unfortunately. I just met him yesterday. Brilliant guy, just a little flawed landing."

"How about the enemy's counterattack?"

"Basically there is no peripheral firepower, Rawalpindi is empty, and the enemy looks weak."

Srinagar, inside the Indian Northern Cluster Command.Lieutenant General Meneam was attentively waiting for the report from the front line.He had already noticed the enemy's mobilization, and guessed the inevitable target of the enemy's use of troops this time - Fort Fortress, this city was too prominent on the entire front line, anyone could guess the enemy's destination just by looking at the map.Now he is planning to deploy a trap here, slowly luring the opponent to fill in more troops.

"General. The 8th Division reported that the enemy's lurking troops in the city have begun to attack our troops. He said that his troops are insufficient, so he can only abandon the southern part of the city. Stick to the northern fortress."

"Tell Commander Khalid that he must defend the highlands in the north, and let him decide on the rest of the area." The lieutenant general said, he knew that it was indeed a bit of a stretch to use one division to take over such a city, especially since there are still a lot of people in the city who are about to move. The resistance forces were too late to clear.

"By tomorrow night at the latest, one of the enemy's armored units will be in place, and then they may be overwhelmed."

"Judging from the air strikes they launched, the armored forces should be in place at this moment, and the attack will be launched in a few hours."

The lieutenant general said categorically, he knew that his opponent was not kind this time, so he didn't have any good expectations for the situation.

"Since it is already in place, why not launch an attack overnight?"

"Obviously to take care of the recruits who can't fight at night." Meneam said confidently, "This is their fatal injury. The attack wave formed by those recruits should make a lot of mistakes, just to benefit from the condescending advantage. The anti-tank missile department must give them a lot of damage and let them have a longer memory."

"But the 8th Division is short on numbers after all."

"Let them retreat to Fort *** if necessary, but they must consume enough enemy troops. The Chinese in the north are watching our performance. If our counterattack is not smart enough, they will encourage them to launch an attack in advance."

A war of attrition in which multiple fronts are confronted at the same time is developing rapidly, and it is still unknown who will wear down who first.Although India has turned to defense as a whole, it still has lethal strike power on some fronts.

Assam region.Several disintegrated Indian troops are gathering in a group north of Lin Huaisheng, with a number of more than [-]. On the west, another Indian mobile force is rushing over, trying to meet the fleeing enemy from the outside.Lin Huaisheng knew in advance that before dusk, the door for the remnants of the enemy to flee west would be blocked, but whether he could quickly form an encirclement would depend on whether his troops act resolutely. They must quickly switch from one battle to another, using their continuous combat capabilities , Destroy the enemy's combat capability, only in this way can the enemy's superiority in numbers be offset.

The new commander of the 4th Army, Moro Ghani, has already seen the worst possibility on the battlefield at this moment.Neither Dejanzon nor Bundila's resistance lasted long.The Chinese troops coming down from the north are rapidly crossing the river.The other Chinese army following the 5th Mountain Division all the way from the east did not make rapid progress. Obviously they were not worried that the Indian army would escape from the east.

The Chinese Air Force has air superiority. On average, more than 600 sorties attack various targets in the Assam area every day, and at the same time undertake various reconnaissance missions.Flying over the heads of field troops for bombing accounted for about half of the sorties, and dropped more than 400 tons of ammunition. This figure may be the limit of their front-line airports that can dispatch aircraft.Relying on the air force alone cannot eliminate 10 ground troops, but the damage to morale is inevitable.Of course, Commander Moro Ghani has been staying at the temporary headquarters and dare not return to the front line, which is also an aspect of morale damage.

Moro Ghani is currently hiding in Udarguri, 60 kilometers away from the troops that are slowly fleeing west.His command was packing up, not to rendezvous with the troops, but to retreat further west.The army staff has been urging him to really take responsibility and rescue several divisions, but the lieutenant general is not stupid. He sees that the tired troops in the east can only move 20 kilometers a day, which seems a little bad.And the active force which the enemy threw into the south was his greatest fear.

"Commander, everything is packed. The headquarters can be transferred at any time. The enemy's drones have been reconnaissance nearby, and air strikes are likely to be launched."

"Don't the enemies of Tespur have the latest news?" He was not in a hurry to leave, but asked about Lin Huaisheng's movements. He was only 70 kilometers away from Spurs, which had just fallen, and there were not many defensive troops.

"We have been stalemate in the area north of Tespur Airport. We have the advance troops of the 23rd Division. The staff estimates that this enemy has just experienced a major war and may have to rest for a while."

"They won't rest. The Chinese will always be faster than our staff," the lieutenant general said confidently. "By the way, the 4th Army was ordered to increase the marching speed in the morning. What's going on now?"

"The speed has not increased, and the soldiers are complaining, mainly due to low morale. The enemy in the north is still far away, and there are still a few days to clear the river. The staff calculates that there is no problem in retreating. At most, the enemy will bite the tail."

The adjutant said, handing over a piece of tattered paper.

"What is this?" The lieutenant general took a look at it, and there was a picture of an Indian soldier raising his hand to surrender.

"They flew over the 4th and [-]th Army in the morning and did not drop bombs. This is their airdropped letter of persuasion."

Morogani turned it over and took a look. The letter of persuasion to surrender was printed in a variety of languages ​​that Indian soldiers could understand, and it seemed that it had just been printed.Obviously the Chinese are already triumphantly preparing for victory.

He curled his lips, unfolded the persuasion letter, and read it out by himself.

"Soldiers of the Fourth Army, junior officers. You must understand that the battle has come to an end. Perhaps because of the concealment of the superiors, you don't know that the new chief of the Fourth Army, Lieutenant General Moro Gani, has not Dare to stand among you. Yes, he hid in the far west valley, commanding this army remotely. He knew you would not win this battle... this battle, but still hid 4 kilometers away, watching You are going to perish, you will be sacrificed in vain by the inhuman war group in New Delhi. Think of your parents, wives and children, death is not your only option."

"Bullshit," the lieutenant general couldn't hold back, because the piece of paper didn't tell the truth. He really didn't dare to take up his post at the current position of the Fourth Army, but he hadn't fled as far as West Valley; what the Chinese said was half-truth False, it seems that they have used their brains to incite the emotions of frontline soldiers.

"It's just hypocritical propaganda, don't be offended."

"It doesn't hurt to have a look."

The lieutenant general simply put on his aging glasses and continued reading.

"... We know that the current rations of the Second Mountain Division have been reduced to 150 grams of rice per day, and the 5th Division has even less. The number has decreased, and there are no reinforcements around. There are several designations, which may still be marked on the map of your headquarters. They are the 56th Security Brigade, the 2th Armored Brigade, the 9th Infantry Division, and the artillery directly under the 4th Army brigade; we must remind you that all of these establishments around the 57th Army actually do not exist. Our army has conquered Tespur 4 days ago, and your retreat to the south has been cut off. I am afraid that this is also your Your officers dare not tell you the truth."

"Bastard, very destructive text, meaner than bombs. How much did they drop? The troops must be ordered to destroy them all."

"I don't know how many, anyway, they will still vote tomorrow, and now their electronic warfare planes can speak directly to all our communication channels, and we can't do anything except turn off the radio. Almost all the frontline soldiers know that Tespur has fallen Something happened."

The lieutenant general remained silent for a long time, and continued to read the paper.

"Indian soldiers, you are ordinary people of the lower class, only deceived by lies or driven by poverty, you have left your hometown and come here to serve as cannon fodder for the war group in New Delhi. Here, you get the worst supplies and weapons, a year You only get one pair of shoes, most people don't have a second pair of socks. You get trucks with no clutches, cans from 1970, and battered winter gear, while Indian officials line their pockets on big arms contracts. Your artillery is still using old-style artillery from the 50s, while the Chinese army you are fighting against uses weapons that surpass your entire generation. You don't need to say much about this, you should have experienced it on the battlefield.

The days of the existence of the New Delhi aggression group can already be counted down, but they are still trying to resist and transfer all the planes on all fronts back to New Delhi to save their own lives, so you have no air supremacy.If our air force didn't pity your lives, it wouldn't be these papers, but countless bombs.

Among your companions, 80% of the soldiers belong to the lower caste or even untouchables. They have suffered all kinds of discrimination and humiliation in the slums since they were young. Even in the army, they still have to wash clothes and clean up the houses for the officers, and their salaries are deducted at will.Everything is not predestined. If you wake up, you should immediately abandon such an unjust evil country and army, throw away your weapons, get out of the trenches, and surrender to the PLA. Only there, you will be treated as human beings.

The following is a letter of proposal to all compatriots from Saganya, a senior soldier of Company F, 57th Regiment of the 334th Infantry Division of the Indian Army, who has given up resistance and voluntarily joined the Assam Self-made Alliance...

Lieutenant General Morogani, who had been pretending to be calm, couldn't bear it any longer. He roared and tore the paper to pieces.

"Psychological offensive is completely psychological warfare. The Communist Party is going to play this trick again. They are all flat lies, except for the name New Delhi Aggressive Group, which is quite interesting."

No one dared to take up this challenge. The general seemed to be dissatisfied with the CCP and New Delhi at the same time.

"Gentlemen, what should we do?" The lieutenant general seemed helpless, and asked the staff officers next to Ji.

"The supply is so poor that it is impossible for the soldiers at the lower ranks to remain unchanged unless we can increase supplies," someone said.

"Say something useful." The lieutenant general said displeased, "This is nonsense. I also want to increase the supplies of the frontline troops, but the sky is full of Chinese planes."

"If the headquarters is returned to the group army, the situation will be better." Someone also suggested that the lieutenant general risk returning to the army.

"If I were still the commander of the Second Division, I would definitely go back, but it's different now. When we go back, we will immediately become the primary target of the Chinese Air Force. They just hunted and killed my predecessor. Didn't you see it? "

There was silence in the headquarters, and no one could come up with any more ideas.

"Commander, there is an update. Meghalaya's radar network has detected a large number of air targets in the north and is moving in the air."

"What's the specific situation?"

"It may be electronic interference, or it may be that there are really large groups of planes approaching from both directions from the east and north at the same time."

"Air strike?"

"Judging from the speed, it looks like a transport plane?"

Obviously different from the chaotic lines on the radar screen when encountering interference, this time a large number of transport planes really crossed the Himalayas and appeared in front of them.

"Come on, let's evacuate quickly, they are about to fall from the sky."
