Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 612 The Oppression of the People's Party
The Chinese are still 400 kilometers away from New Delhi, but Singh has clearly heard the gunfire ahead, and he is always in a state of tension.The Ministry of Internal Affairs police are already in the city and have captured dozens of Pakistani spies, mostly Indians who have been bought by money. These people were ordered to spread all kinds of panic among the Indian crowd. The army collects the strike effect of cruise missiles.Now the rich people in the city who are able to run away have already run away.Prime Minister Kahan strictly ordered the cabinet and members of parliament not to evacuate, but more than 3% of the members of the upper house and the people's house have fled to the south under various pretexts. up.

Singer hadn't seen Charmain since yesterday, and he thought to himself, did this kid slip away too?Just thinking about it, someone outside the office asked to see him, and it turned out to be the intelligence chief.Singer was a little touched for a while, thinking, although this bastard is always deceived by Chinese or Americans, he is still reliable after all.

Charmain hurried in from the outside, and when he came to talk about something straight to the point, Singer stood up subconsciously, not because he respected Charmain, but because he had a premonition that Charmain might bring bad news again.

"Minister, we must evacuate essential government personnel to Mumbai immediately. Before it is too late."

"This... why don't you talk to the Prime Minister yourself?" Singer was slightly relieved. It turned out that it was not bad news, but came to serve as a lobbyist for the Americans.

"I'm not kidding, the CIA is advising us to prepare for the worst."

"The U.S. special envoy has discussed the same proposal with the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister is very disgusted with such a proposal that implies that we will fail. By the way, how does the CIA see the situation?"

"They think that our forces in the north are already semi-isolated, and that the Chinese move from the Punjab has cost us half of our defense of New Delhi. In a few weeks, India will lose a decisive battle."

"Clich and utterly sensational. If someone said that in the street, they would be arrested by the Home Office police as a spy spreading defeatism."

"The Americans have also found that China is doing everything it can to buy food. It may be this spring that it will conduct a large-scale purchase operation in the occupied areas. These activities will fundamentally shake our government."

"Hehe, our people are reliable, they will not succeed."

"Now that things are up, don't say such angry words; you and I both know that the people are never reliable, especially those untouchables, and it is easy to credulously believe the Communist Party's propaganda. The Chinese are setting up training camps on the other side of the mountain. They instigated rebellion against the prisoners of war, and even formed a security force prepared to take over the local government in the future, as many as 40 battalions have been identified."

"These Indian traitors, low caste scum, should all be shot."

"There will be more and more enemy spies infiltrating New Delhi, and the central police force in the Ministry of Home Affairs will be undernumbered. The situation may soon get out of control, and we must prepare for the worst before it is too late."

"The prime minister has already said that any official mentioning evacuation is an act of collaborating with the enemy." The Minister of Defense said decisively, hoping to dispel Chamain's thoughts.

Singer's tough and irrational remarks really disappointed Charmain.On the surface, Singer appeared fearless, but in fact he was a cowardly escapist.This war will soon be decided. Charmain is not thinking more about the direction of the war now. It is actually very clear. What the intelligence chief is worried about is the country's future. Now it seems that the Chinese are thinking about the Indians. Destiny is more, at least they are still buying food around the world, and the Americans have not even prevented the Chinese from buying food from North America.

Charmain left the heavily guarded Defense Department building and returned to Dalhousie Avenue.There were basically no pedestrians on the originally bustling streets. Anti-aircraft guns were deployed around the streets, and light saber missile launchers had been installed on the roofs of some buildings.

The Guards Wing, which is considered the most reliable, has just been deployed to the capital circle. They are setting up barricades and barbed wire fences on all major roads. The temporarily recruited workers are busy building the separation wall. These facilities are used to isolate , To check the contacts.A special area of ​​about 11 square kilometers has been delineated in the center of New Delhi, mainly including the government area and the embassy area of ​​various countries.

Nowadays, people without a special pass are not allowed to enter the core area, and even ordinary civil servants are not allowed to enter.This method of isolating the entry and exit of personnel is very effective. Many Pakistani spies who were eager to find out were caught at the checkpoint.Behind the barbed wire, there is also a separation wall to prevent enemy agents from driving vehicles loaded with explosives, but it has not yet been built. Charmain doubts whether the completion of this wall will be completed in time for the end of the war. Anyway, the CCP’s tanks are will not be blocked by these walls.

Since Spanga's troops withdrew from the capital and went to the front line, the main defense of the core area of ​​the capital circle was handed over to the troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Guards Wing, while some second-line troops and police were in charge of the outer civilian areas. Defensive strength is weak.

Inside the city, the possibility of civil unrest is building because of hunger.The army requisitioned almost all railway lines to transport weapons, ammunition and soldiers, making it impossible for poor people who wanted to flee to get out by rail.However, food transportation other than military rations is ranked second by the government. According to the newly promulgated by the Kahan government, the principle of rationed food supply in wartime, food will be given priority to the army and government agencies. As far as poor Indians are concerned, the government has decided to continue withholding their basic needs to sustain the war.

The all-pervasive Pakistani intelligence personnel took full advantage of this situation and spread a lot of rumors in the city that the Indian government wanted to starve the poor to reduce food consumption; at the same time, a large number of food supply coupons that were difficult to distinguish between authenticity and falsehood appeared on the black market.

The intelligence chief knew the situation was getting worse.India's loose and inefficient governance is completely inadequate to deal with an infiltration war of this scale; from radio stations, the Internet, to various gossip, the enemy's black hands are everywhere.

Charman's car passed through Wubuyigang Street, sporadic gunshots and billowing black smoke from the northwest, the enemy did not come in advance, it was just a suppression operation that was ending.

In this crackdown, about 150 mobs involved in the smashing were killed and another 400 were arrested. According to the latest martial law and punishment of civil unrest law, one third of these mobs will be arrested after a simple trial. Sentenced to death.

In the past, the Kahan government always had a way to blame China for its internal contradictions and turn them into populist sentiments that are conducive to the implementation of war policies; but now, such strategies are no longer effective, even illiterate beggars can It is not right to see the signs of war.

The Chinese use expensive cruise missiles, and the priority targets are the New Delhi TV station and the surrounding power plants. This trick is quite interesting; it is matched with various rumors spread by the Pakistani Intelligence Agency.

For Indians, rumors can always spread easily. The serious disturbance that started 2 days ago was due to an insidious rumor being spread.

Rumors, already in the hands of the Home Office, claimed that the rich and government officials who had fled would rather stash their irreplaceable food in the cellars of their homes to mold rather than distribute it to the poor.In fact, as far as the content of the rumors is concerned, they are basically true.

So hordes of bandits rushed into the empty mansion in the northwest of Nehru Park and looted all the valuables.In the end, the situation got further out of control and turned into arson and assault on the police.It wasn't until the tanks of the Guards Wing were dispatched that the situation calmed down.

According to Kahan's direct order, New Delhi will implement curfew and isolation measures in a step-by-step manner, so that the activities of enemy agents can be restricted, but by then, the Chinese tanks should not be far away.

Charman drove back to the Intelligence Bureau building, where there was an India-US joint team updating the intelligence collected by the US at any time. The situation was deteriorating every minute, and he had to keep an eye on it.What he mentioned to Singh just now is that the Chinese are buying grain from all over the world, and Singh doesn't take it seriously; but in Charman's view, this information shows that the Chinese are making long-term preparations, and the Kahan government seems to be Waiting for the spring famine to come, for the prime minister, if people starve to death, it is just a "favorable" thing that can add political points and further manipulate international sympathy.

In the underground headquarters of Pakistan's Peshawar Airport, Song Ning and some pilots (including Major General Sami representing the Pakistani Air Force) are conducting a video conference with domestic connections.The meeting discussed the biggest variable at present, which comes from the US military.

The new radar, which is said to be effective against stealth aircraft, has arrived, but the range of action is still unknown. How to deploy and how to counterattack have become the focus of discussion.

As the first air commander who fought against a stealth aircraft, Song Ning was deeply impressed by the enemy's combat methods and had lingering fears. He expressed his views without hesitation, and spent about 20 minutes talking about various difficulties brought about by the technical gap. Overcome the difficulties, and then start to make a staged summary:

"As I said earlier, after the long-range radar in the prominent area of ​​Khuzdar was destroyed, loopholes appeared in the entire radar network, and the ability to monitor the sea disappeared. From a tactical point of view, the enemy's goal has been achieved, even though they paid The cost. At present, we only get some useful early warnings from Iran, such as the build-up of US tankers and electronic warfare aircraft at sea, so as to guess the enemy's movements. But once the enemy is aware of it, it is likely to provide us with false information in turn. Cover their real actions. Once their stealth planes get in, it will be difficult for us to detect. At present, they only need to dispatch 2 planes to effectively destroy our ground radar, and by the way, half of our regiment is mobilized to do it in the air. Going around in vain."

The picture and sound transmitted through the satellite lagged a bit, and it took a while for the head of the Air Force Operations Department on the other side of the picture to respond.

"Comrade Song Ning, what you said is very valuable. How do you evaluate the performance of F15se and F35?"

"Comrade Chief. The F35 is the toughest opponent we face. According to my judgment, it can gain greater initiative in combat than the Silent Eagle. This is determined by its stealth capability. Since it has no external hardpoints, it can The infrared signature is also smaller.” Song Ning also said and glanced at Sami who was wearing a simultaneous interpretation headset, and Sami nodded proudly. He was honored to be the first to shoot down an F15 or a stealth fighter from the air. People, but the Chinese seem to have signs of expelling the F15se from the stealth machine sequence.

"So, Major General, what's your opinion?" the Deputy Chief of Air Operations asked Sammy.

"I feel that the enemy actually has some serious disadvantages that our commanders have overlooked."

Sure enough, what Song Ning was most worried about happened. The old man shocked everyone with his words, scaring all the participants thousands of kilometers away.In fact, only Liu Zhaolin, who was sitting next to Sami, nodded noncommittally, and then yawned. It was not appropriate to yawn on such a serious occasion, but he was too tired.

"Major General, please tell me more about it." The deputy minister hurriedly asked, apparently Sammy's big words were more attractive than Song Ning's dejected words.

"Our enemy needs to guard against Iran's radar, so... they don't have many routes to choose from in the narrow Baloo area. Only when they return, they have more options, so when I pursue them, they I chose the shortest way to run towards the sea, but I didn’t run away.”

Everyone was silent, waiting for the old man to have something practical after boasting.

"In the next step, they should continue to attack the radar in the middle, so we need a team to predict the enemy's thinking and narrow the range, so that we can deploy the mobile radar in a targeted manner. Once our mobile radar is placed in the right position, the enemy will There is no freedom of movement anymore."

"That's right, let's talk about it, do you have any other suggestions?" The deputy minister seemed very eager.

"The F15SE I shot down fell in Balochistan. If you can find the pilot, you can grasp the enemy's plan. In addition, the software of the combat aircraft's warning device needs to be updated. The enemy's radar has power management functions, so electronic reconnaissance equipment needs to be updated. It is more sensitive and can provide warning and direction indication to suspicious radiation sources."

"I'm afraid it's too late to update the software, Major General. We need a practical solution."

"Judging from the battle in the morning, the Su-35's radar can search with high power and see them from a certain direction. Once the enemy starts to respond, there will be some loopholes."

"You mean increasing ground radar signatures."

"Not only that, but if you speed up, their infrared signature will increase. We may be able to detect them passively from the air."

Several senior officials of the Chinese Air Force on the other side of the screen discussed in a low voice for a while.

"So, if you are in command, are you sure, Major General?"

When the voice came, Song Ning secretly cast a disgusted glance at Sami.
