Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 798

Kakahan stared silently at the poison on the desk. The amount left by the doctor was enough to kill 150 adults, so there was nothing to worry about.He hasn't been so obsessed with looking at something for so long. Although he has always believed that he can put life and death aside, he still shrinks back when facing this moment.

Ever since the enemy's army counterattacked into the Indian mainland, he began to secretly think that this day might come. His job was to cheer up the whole of India, lest the people fall into despair, and sometimes he was deceived by his own speeches and thunderous applause. , thinking that the setback was only temporary, but he couldn't completely break away from reality.The retreat of the army, the betrayal of the allied forces, and the fact that the Srinagar army is likely to be incorporated by Jamilan's puppet government made him feel scared.Now, he must prepare for the worst, and must not fall into the hands of the Pakistanis, and let them be exhibited and judged like monkeys.He carefully hid the poison by his side, then walked out of the room to check the latest developments, maybe there was still hope in the situation.

Yahini stood firm on the high ground, and the surrounding ground was like scorched earth plowed by a huge iron plow, with bomb craters of different depths, leaving behind a large number of chariot wreckage and charred dead bodies.

He stayed here, waiting for friendly forces to organize an attack, and at the same time indicated targets for long-range firepower and air power. The enemy charged seven or eight times in one night from the three directions of south, west, north, and south. The cluster munitions hit hard, and whenever they attacked, the Chinese army gave up diversionary attacks in the south, forcing them to give up, and now they are scared by the devastating firepower, and the surroundings are quiet in the morning.

The only 3 losses of Yahini's troops were also caused by the enemy's curved artillery fire and the infantry's sneaking up with rocket launchers. The hand-to-hand battle between the tanks did not happen.However, as the day comes, the enemy's tank combat effectiveness will be strengthened, and drone reconnaissance shows that the enemy is hiding around and reorganizing its forces.

Taking advantage of the calm at dawn, he drove the tank to the commanding heights in the north, where there was a broken cage that used to hold the vultures, but a falling drone scratched the cage during the night, and now the birds in it have escaped .

Yahini put his head out of the turret and looked around with binoculars. The enemy to the east still maintained a line of defense along the river, but they had already shown their passiveness.It is a general rule that the Indians cannot hold any line of defense when they are attacked from the front and back. Even if the flank is attacked, it can easily cause collapse.The two nationalities of India and Pakistan have similar temperaments, and the army is in the same branch. Therefore, smart people like Yahini can find the opponent's problems from the problems of the Pakistani army.The main problem is that everyone strives to be the first when attacking, and is afraid of falling behind when retreating. This is the characteristic of the two armies in the subcontinent. Of course, in most cases, the Indian army can slightly outperform Pakistan.

He looked up and could see a bright flash in the sun, probably a paint-off drone approaching from the east again, which made him feel that he was not alone. The Indian air defense network was still in place. I saw the Indians launching 50 to 60 anti-aircraft missiles from various areas in New Delhi, and the barrage of automatic anti-aircraft artillery fire continued overnight.Most of the missiles flew over his head and exploded, and there were more than 20 of his own drones that fell around him alone. He didn't know about other losses.This was probably the craziest night since New Delhi was besieged. They fired all the anti-aircraft weapons in their hands regardless of the cost.

But the Chinese did not hesitate to lose this point, and have been sending drones to exchange enemy missiles without interruption. At this moment, the Indians seem to be lacking in confidence, and the counterattack has become more and more slow and weak.Yahini knew this was a good thing, and the enemy began to hesitate, indicating that they had no more anti-aircraft missiles.It is said that some of the small UAVs launched by the Chinese do not carry reconnaissance equipment. Tactically, they are used to test and consume ground air defense weapons, but another role is psychological warfare, which is used to destroy the confidence of air defense forces , making it doubt the value of its own existence.

Having said that, he has a few drones on his head to make him feel confident. The drones are condescending, which can make up for the blind spot in his reconnaissance, and the efficiency of indicating the target is far beyond him. He can't directly communicate with the Chinese army. Yes, there is only the 122 artillery group of the division headquarters, and the ammunition is always insufficient.

"Commander, the enemy seems to be gathering in the direction of Jamia University. I can see in the rising smoke, can we beat them with long-range fire." Rahman, who was in charge of the southern defense on the radio, said.

"The Chinese will not attack there, there are still many civilians there, but I let the artillery group of the division headquarters hit a base number."

"When will our outside troops attack?"

"According to my assumption, it should have been 2 hours ago, but the division headquarters was disbanded yesterday, and it is still unable to organize an attack. It is impossible for me to let the 2 battalions launch an attack without infantry support. Have to wait."

"Yahini finished talking to Rahman and was about to contact Younis, but Younis found him first on the radio.

"Commander, are your people asleep?" The domineering voice of the deputy division commander made Yahini feel that he had regained his confidence, "Listen, the Chinese drone saw that the enemy tanks were coming from near Humayun's tomb. Use a series of terrain cover to approach, about 1.5 kilometers away from you, didn't your people see it?"

"It hasn't been reported yet."

"All the tanks are full of grass, at least 10. Long-range fire will reach you, and the Chinese are unwilling to attack ancient buildings, so..."

"Deputy Commander, I'll handle it myself. Also, when will you launch an attack? My two battalions are fully loaded and ready to attack at any time. The enemy's defense line along the river is now just a layer of paper, which can be broken with a single stab."

"Well, we have to wait a little longer. Ibrahim's defeat caused our side to lose 60??? officers. I have to promote 35 platoon commanders and 11 company commanders to mobilize a reinforced infantry regiment. It may take a few hours to cooperate with your tanks to launch an attack. But don’t worry, the enemy’s air defense network seems to have suddenly misfired in the early morning, and a large number of air forces will directly support you immediately.”

"understood."

Yahini quickly got into the turret and directed his most elite 1st company to move to the area where the enemy was stalking, preparing for a big fight.

It's not the first time that Indian army used ancient ruins to cover military operations or units and sometimes they let opponents throw them at the mouse, but this time they picked the wrong one. Yahini hated history class since middle school. He is a man with no history. A war machine with humanistic feelings, a complete saboteur.

The tank quickly took advantage of the favorable terrain, overlooking the huge tombs of ancient emperors in the south with a military-style dome.He reminded his commanders that they must hide on the left side to prevent AT5 missiles from being launched from enemy positions in the direction of the Zhumuna River, and turn on the laser jamming equipment at any time to prevent enemy helicopters from attacking.Then he let some of the tanks be loaded with artillery-launched missiles to prevent the enemy from charging suddenly and rushing into the dead corner of his high and low shooting circles.Chinese tanks are not good at depression angle. Of course, most tanks on the battlefield have this problem, except those tanks whose chassis can be adjusted by hydraulic suspension, but they also have their own unique problems.

"Boss, look at that cemetery. I heard that the one lying in the tomb is the second emperor of the Mughal Empire." Gunner Tasim said.

"What's so great about the emperor?" Yahini said disdainfully.

"It is said that he fell down the stairs and died. Don't you think it's interesting?" Tasim continued to say proudly.It seems to show some historical knowledge.

"That said, it's also trash."

He saw a moving bush in the peripheral vision mirror, and the enemy really took advantage of the grave lieutenant's terrain to move.

The first Indian tank came out of the woods on one side of the mausoleum. It was well camouflaged, and it was temporarily unclear whether it was a T72 or a T90.

"They think they haven't been exposed yet, so don't fire until they are all exposed."

Yahini strictly ordered his commanders to refrain from firing and wait for all the enemies to emerge from behind the building and be exposed in an open area, but he could not control all nearby units, such as drones in the air.

The drone operator is also waiting for the opportunity in the cabin hundreds of kilometers away. The difference is that he is waiting for the Indian tank to leave that building. The historical and cultural heritage registered by the United Nations is far enough that the drone only carried a bomb , so the operator was not as meticulous as Yahini thought.He fired a laser at the first tank, then pressed the fire button.

A bomb fell from the sky and completely destroyed the tank.Then the other tanks started to back off, trying to hide behind the huge mausoleum building.Yahini immediately called Younis and asked to use the running group to bulldoze the lonely building.Younis had just been blamed by his superiors for the disappearance of Ibrahim. He was holding back his stomach and ordered to fire on the target without hesitation.

A battalion of howitzers opened fire on the area, razing this great 16th-century building, along with nearby facilities, to the ground in an instant.The Indian tanks could not withstand the artillery fire, and they were exposed one after another on the way to retreat, and were destroyed one by one by the precise artillery fire of the Yahini tank group 1.5 kilometers away.

At the same time enemy artillery fire also began to fire on Yahini's position, but with much less accuracy.

The Pakistan Air Force has already been on standby in the air to search for the firing Indian artillery positions and other exposed facilities. Sami personally lifted the ban. The attack location is no longer limited to the periphery of New Delhi. If necessary, it can pass through the entire sky over New Delhi.

After a night of observation, Sami judged that the enemy's air defense firepower was unsustainable. Now is the time to annihilate the remaining air defense forces in New Delhi. Although a price will be paid, those who hide in the forested buildings will not be able to hide without paying the price. The air defense systems of China and Pakistan have been dug out one by one, and the Chinese and Pakistani air forces have been subject to these air defense networks for too long, so that the advantages of air supremacy cannot be brought into play.

The stable tactics are no longer effective. The Indian air defense forces have all retreated into the urban area, and usually do not use radar, and the effectiveness of anti-radiation missiles has been greatly reduced.Therefore, the eagle must dive into the head of the sheep to find the opportunity.

Sami himself did his part and was ready to break into New Delhi at any time. He flew a J-10 fighter jet up and down over the defense line of the Jumuna River to test the enemy's final air defense capabilities.Except for the anti-aircraft guns, no other firepower was encountered.

He flew back and forth a few times to see if there was a radar lurking in standby.But those novices couldn't hold back any longer. Two Thunder fighter jets from the Black Panther Squadron suddenly rushed into the sky above the city, swaggered towards the hotel where the foreign journalists gathered, and then turned around and dropped bombs on the National Museum of India, attacking the commander of the Self-Defense Forces there. department.

The pilot's adventure really found a counterattack, and the carefully camouflaged light saber missile suddenly appeared near the Indian central government building.When no radar was found to be turned on, several white smoke rose into the sky.The first Thunder fighter plane in the no-escape zone was shot down before it could make any maneuvers.The wreckage hit the electronics industry building not far from the prime minister's office, destroying the editorial office of the Press Trust of India on the ninth floor of the building.

The other plane dropped the bomb in haste and fled. The pilot didn't know the trick to escape the light saber missile. He just accelerated blindly and escaped by luck. After flying 5 kilometers, the tracking missile lost power and fell in the urban area.

Those missiles that use electro-optical equipment to track targets cannot be located by passive equipment at all, but Sammy saw the rising flames, and he rushed there to chase and kill the missile launcher. These missiles are usually equipped with mobile chassis, or On the trailer, he tentatively guessed it was the Light Saber 2000 system.

The Light Saber 2000 was not directly installed on the mobile chassis, which limited its ability to escape. Before it could maneuver, the commander heard the roar of a third jet behind the tall building, which did not seem to be lightning.

The commander turned the launcher according to the sound of approaching, and waited for the enemy plane that wanted to kill himself to emerge, and then shot out all the remaining 4 missiles.

Sammy came around from behind a building, and at the same time he saw the missile from a distance, four missiles flew towards him in the air.He originally thought that the enemy was escaping right now, and he could easily win, but he didn't expect that the enemy was still sticking to his post, and he happened to be in the no-escape zone, at least it was impossible to escape from the overload.

However, this line-of-sight tracking and command-guiding missile is not suitable for deployment on the ground, which will inevitably greatly limit its tracking/attack range. The most reasonable way is to deploy it on the roof.

He repeated the same trick again, circling around the 30-story Kimbert Hotel, making it impossible for ground personnel to visually track, and the missile lost its command immediately. When he came out, all 4 missiles missed the target and flew away.He swooped down and aimed at the launch vehicle.The light saber missile trailer that fired all 8 missiles stood there like a bare ball.

Sammy took out the trailer, along with any nearby vehicles, with one well-placed rocket shot.When pulled up again, no nearby radar emitters were sensed.He tried to circle around the core area of ​​New Delhi. Except for the radars of some anti-aircraft artillery positions, he was still not targeted by any real guidance radar, which made the two heavy anti-radiation missiles hanging under his wings almost impossible. became waste.The enemy seemed to have collapsed overnight, both on the ground and in the air.This made Sami lose his target for a while. He was going to search for the last S2 position. This is obviously the most important target besides the Indian leaders, but it disappeared. There are no records and satellite photos of these positions. Perhaps the S300 or Aster positions have no supplementary missiles.

He simply flew to the Prime Minister's Office of India to complete a personal revenge.He has seen hundreds of satellite photos of New Delhi, and he is already familiar with the location of important targets. Even if the Prime Minister's Office is not the most prominent landmark on Hausdal Street, he will never spend a second to identify it it.He found the right angle to dive down, and before the anti-aircraft gun could react, he aimed the sight on the HUD at the platform of the low mansion, and fired dozens of rockets in the short shooting window.

Hundreds of anti-aircraft guns in the entire government area turned together, and some of them began to fire hastily. Since the firing director could not keep up with the target, all the firepower fired from the same position fell behind this strangely moving J-10 fighter. , It cannot be covered, and the damage caused by the falling of these anti-aircraft artillery ammunition will not be less than the dozen or so rockets that Sami bombarded the balcony on the second floor of the Prime Minister's Palace.

More Pakistani planes rushed into the sky over New Delhi to test whether the Indian air defense force had really given up, while the Chinese Air Force remained on hold.
