Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 756 Two-seater Xiaolong

When the assault gun used the machine gun to shoot the recalcitrant enemy, the 122mm rocket launcher in the rear was like plowing the ground, covering the enemy retreating north again. Falling down in all directions.After the infantry fighting vehicle arrived, the dismounted infantry immediately blocked the exit of the tunnel with cloud bombs fired from the bazooka, and then the engineer blew up the exit. This is the most effective method in a short period of time.

After the Chinese assault gun suffered a brief attack, it began to use precise direct firepower to name those valuable targets. The accuracy of the 105mm rifled gun was enough to make it hit the Land Rover fleeing at high speed 2 kilometers away, and the Chinese army temporarily gained overwhelming power. Advantage.

Wang Zhenbei in the rear headquarters has been closely observing the movements of the flanking enemies.Behind the Indira Gandhi International Airport is the New Delhi barracks. A military-level headquarters is here, but the Indian Army there is only nervously mobilized, and there is no sign of dispatch. Instead, artillery from farther away began to counterattack, but due to lack of observation , The placement was very bad, and some even hit their own heads.

40 assault guns and infantry fighting vehicles were slowly pushed flat. They advanced 500 meters according to Wang Zhenbei's instructions, quickly occupied a runway, used the old Indian army bunkers to hide their chassis, and then continued to shoot.Some of the straight-meow artillery turned on the shooters in the terminal building who were shooting black guns.The desperate Self-Defense Forces are still hiding there and shooting at each other, trying to use 12.7mm bullets to fight 105mm grenades.The infantry fighting vehicles used 30mm machine guns to deal with the remnants of the enemy who were too late to escape.

If Wang Zhenbei had enough ammunition, he could go directly to the New Delhi barracks along a railway connecting the airport to the city, but at this moment he had to gain a firm foothold here.His drone continued to advance northward, and it could be seen that tanks had been mobilized in the shallow area. The drone finally hit the Doyle anti-aircraft tank outside the New Delhi barracks and was destroyed.

New Delhi International Airport has six 6-kilometer-long runways. This huge area is divided into north and south parts by the huge terminal building. Within 4 hours, the two sides have conducted repeated operations in this area of ​​more than 30 square kilometers in the suburbs of New Delhi. In order to avoid casualties and take advantage of artillery fire, the Chinese army took the initiative to retreat several times. In fact, Wang Zhenbei intends to use this place as a testing ground for honing urban combat. He expects that once he enters a narrower urban area, The current difficulties will be multiplied, from snipers in the rubble to underground passages extending in all directions, for the Chinese army, these are blank.Before the arrival of the new equipment, he had to dig deep into the cooperation between the drone and the ground troops in this battlefield environment. There is still 25 kilometers away from the city center, and he had to take every step carefully.

The fighter jets of the Pakistan Air Force, eager to attack, continue to conduct various tests around New Delhi. They are constantly beating the weakness of the enemy's exhausted air defense network, and every pilot is eager to drop bombs into the city. Target identification is not a big problem for them. , the only difficulty is how to break through.

A two-seater Xiaolong fighter that had never appeared on the battlefield was flying east of the east bank of the Jumuna River. The pilot carefully controlled the distance and altitude to avoid falling into the fire net of the anti-aircraft weapon on the opposite side.Across the river are dense high-rise buildings and castles left over from the old era. A large number of anti-aircraft weapons were installed on high-rise buildings and castles by the Indian army.

Usually, it is installed with double or quadruple 23mm anti-aircraft guns, and some hidden Stinger or Sam missiles. To deal with these weapons, you only need to keep a distance. Of course, if you encounter Light Saber 2000 missiles, it is relatively Difficult to deal with, satellite photos show that the Indians may have installed Rapier missiles on top of some buildings.This radar-guided missile is far more deadly than the Stinger. It is highly integrated and uses a variety of attack methods, including optical tracking modes that are difficult to detect. It is the nemesis of low-altitude fighters.

The installation of anti-aircraft weapons on civilian buildings can allow the air defense forces to obtain a better unobstructed view, but it also makes these buildings equivalent to giving up the status of civilian buildings that are exempt from attack.

Defense Minister Singh had discussed with the Prime Minister on the pros and cons of this matter, but Prime Minister Kahan finally convinced Singh that for the Prime Minister, he urgently needs the support and sympathy of the entire West. There is nothing better than the picture of civilian buildings being destroyed. Convincing, he specifically asked the air defense battalion to disperse some parts to the area where foreign journalists are concentrated.The Chinese military seems to be really wary, and even though the satellites can clearly see these targets, they have not launched strikes.

However, the Pakistan Air Force did not require pilots to strictly distinguish between military and civilian targets. The only thing Sami told them to pay attention to was those high-end hotels where foreign journalists were stationed. A camera device mistaken for an anti-aircraft weapon.

Two Pakistani pilots, overlooking the battlefield several kilometers away, carefully choose their targets.The pilot saw the Hilton Hotel next to the Gandhi Memorial, where many Western journalists must have been waiting for headlines.The pilot is almost eager to show his hand in front of these cameras.

Changing the lightweight JF17 into a two-seater has always been the desire of the Pakistan Air Force. If it weren't for this war, it might have been delayed for a few years. After the war broke out, the two-seater was finally designed and manufactured in China.

Compared with the single-seat type, the two-seat type can also launch some new anti-ground weapons.Now, this fighter plane is equipped with a 500 kg TV-guided glide bomb on one side, and a command pod on the other side. In addition, it can only carry 2 fighting bombs and auxiliary fuel tanks into the air up.Their purpose today is to test new weapons and Sami's new tactics.Due to the heavy casualties of the newly formed troops, it is inevitable that the old man will rethink the way of fighting in the next stage. Obviously, he is facing the most heavily fortified city on earth and continues to act rashly. He can only fill the young people into this bottomless pit needlessly.The Pakistan Air Force lacks attack aircraft and lacks precision strike capabilities. Fortunately, the all-rounder JF17 two-seater appeared in time, which is exactly what Sami wanted.A crew of the Falcon Squadron went directly into the actual combat after a few rough exercises on the simulator.

"Bastion, this is the Fighting Falcon. It has arrived at the designated area and is searching for the target."

"Fighting Falcon, you must first confirm the target."

Someone on the early warning aircraft reminded.

"Find heavy artillery emplacement near Gandhi Memorial, I see smoke from their fire, they are still there. Request to attack."

"Request denied." The early warning aircraft decisively denied the pilot's request without telling the reason. The real reason was that it was too close to the Kempinski Hotel, and a 19-year-old weapon guide who had not undergone strict training was allowed to control a large A 500kg unpowered bomb really feels unreliable.

"Fighting Falcon, the drone has detected the light saber launcher on the top of the New Delhi Exhibition Hall. It is recommended that you attack this target."

The early warning aircraft took the initiative to point out a target in a relatively open area to these militant guys.The pilot found the target from the monitor. The exhibition hall has only three floors and is blocked by tall buildings next to it. He is currently in a blind spot for target reconnaissance, and the glide bomb can theoretically be controlled to turn around and blow up the target.

"understood."

The pilot accepted the challenge excitedly, and the fighter plane began to climb rapidly and prepare to accumulate altitude and drop bombs.It cannot fly directly to the target. After all, the target is an anti-aircraft missile. It is naturally the best solution to hide behind the cover that the enemy’s radar cannot see. Of course, it can control the stupid bomb, turn a 25° turn, and hit it. Even veterans are not sure, but in fact no one expects them to make shots, but there are no civilian areas in this area.

At about the same time, Prime Minister Kahan was standing at the door of the underground conference room, anxiously waiting for his guests. His few remaining high-ranking officials sat in the conference room, smoking and talking about the stars of Bollywood movies, unless forced to , They have always tried to avoid talking about war recently, and this kind of self-deception quickly formed a tacit understanding.

On the other side of the venue, two officers were listening to the enemy's broadcast, one was responsible for searching the channel, and the other was recording.

The Chinese army set up an antenna on the high ground west of the city, 35 kilometers away from here.The daily instigation program has evolved from the original 18 hours to a 24-hour continuous.Due to the increase in power, Chamain's intelligence bureau has no way to completely block these communications technically. The Kahan government was forced to adapt. A second voice appeared over the city to propagate to his people. No one can count the number of people in the city. How many people are still listening to the government radio.

A familiar voice from the radio wafted to the ears of senior officials who were talking about female stars. Several people opened their mouths and stopped. Minister of Agriculture, Jamilan, seemed to have returned to the conference room.He once talked here about how to carry the war to the end, and now he is asking the Indians to give up resistance.

"...we appeal to Indian soldiers who are still fighting in New Delhi, stop your senseless resistance immediately, you go out of the city, and then you can choose to join the army of New India, or go home. We have established a new government in Mendi, Taken over the Northern Territory and will soon be back in New Delhi.

In the new Indian Army we will no longer serve the greed of the big landowners and merchant trusts.In the new army, we don't feed the soldiers what we feed the cattle.In the new army, you will not be destined to be discriminated against because of your surname.

...Those who control you with religious superstition and caste system and steal your freedom and land are our common enemies...It is a brave act to break with the old era. There is nothing shameful in surrendering. The so-called patriotism It is the nonsense of Kahan and his ilk to deceive the world, wake up, fellow citizens. "

"This traitor is really shameless," said the Secretary of Labor, exhaling a puff of cigarettes, "but it must be admitted that it is very seditious."

"Maybe soon he will have his own army," the chairman of the Council of Ministers murmured. "The Americans say that once Meneam's army surrenders, it will be loyal to him. There was a mutiny in Srinagar a few days ago. Several of the prime minister's generals were detained by General Meneam; can you believe that Meneam once said that he would shoot every defector without mercy."

"Maybe in a day or two, the Chinese shells will blockade the Safford Joan Airport, and it will be too late to run away. I am not worried about the Chinese army, but what will the Pakistanis do with us? This is very difficult. expected."

15 kilometers away, a 500kg bomb fell from the fighter plane. It opened its wings to adjust its attitude and flew towards the general target. The 19-year-old pilot stared at the screen that was shaking from time to time, watching it fly towards the gradually larger building below. He tried to adjust the course and aim the bomb at the target, but the bomb was too heavy and his inexperience made it difficult to Take such a big turn.

According to past practice, if he missed the target, he should drop the bomb in an open space away from human habitation, but he made up his mind that no bomb should be wasted.

The bomb was getting faster and faster, and it was out of control like a meteorite. The weapon controller was about to lose control and miss the target. He tried to pull the bomb up to maintain the final control, and at the same time prolong the time for the bomb to fall to the ground.

He has been unable to recognize the scene that is rapidly leaving from the bottom of the screen. He can only find the wide main road of Mathura, and head northwest along this blocked road. Before he loses the final height, he may still have some time. Find a worthy target.He wasn't sure how much time was left, probably no more than 3 to 5 seconds.

He saw a caravan driving ahead, and there was a huge arch at the end of the street, which he knew was the center of New Delhi—the India Gate.

The weapon guide controlled the bomb and followed closely. He hoped that there would be a big man in the convoy, at least a company and battalion commander.Still, even if you're not an executive, being able to carry out a bombing in front of India Gate is exciting enough.

Yelinsky's Humvee convoy was driving to the prime minister's office. He was sure that any means by the enemy would not be able to attack him in time, even if the satellite could see it. New Delhi's air defense was still in effect.

He was thinking about how to talk about evacuation with Kahan straight to the point, when he inadvertently saw something in the air following him in the mirror.He took off his sunglasses and turned his head backwards.Clearly seeing the slender wings above this thing, it is by no means an ordinary drone.

"Cruise missile, turn!"

He yelled, and the Humvee made a strong turn and rushed to the side road near the India Gate.But James Wu's car, which was driving in front of him, was not so lucky. The major did not see the danger.

James Wu, with a bandage on his head, was looking out into the nearby street worrying.A few days ago, he represented the coalition forces to participate in the military parade here. Unexpectedly, the situation of the battle has reached the point where it cannot be controlled. If the helicopter had not forced out of the encirclement, he would have confessed to the battlefield.

The major kept repeating an old saying in his hometown: "If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed." There was always something to this old philosophy, he thought.

The pilot hastily aimed the reticle at the first Humvee, but the bomb was out of control and it was impossible to turn to any other target.Eventually the image becomes a flicker of noise and nothing else.

Kahan, who was waiting in the basement of the Prime Minister's Office a few streets away, felt the earth shaking and the mountains shaking. This was the most vivid time in his life that he felt the imminence of death. If it hadn't been for the doctor to hold him up, he would have almost sat down on the ground.

The huge explosion blew up a terrible deep pit in the center of India Gate Square. James Wu who was hit and the members of the same car have since been included in the list of missing persons. Although many people can confirm their deaths, the bodies have never been found.

With a history of nearly a hundred years, the India Gate, built of granite, still stands, but the gate of the National Museum in front of it was destroyed, and the glass windows of nearby houses were smashed.
