Dominate South Asia

Originally, Amritsar had an infantry division. If they could resist for even one night and wait for reinforcements to arrive, they could also stop the Pakistani army. An infantry division of more than 10,000 people! They surrendered without resistance. Even if it was 10,000 animals, it would take the Pakistanis half a day to slaughter them. They didn't even resist for one night!

This shows that a pessimistic mood has begun to spread in the Indian army. Once this negative thought continues to spread, it will be very terrible.

"Sendarji, tell me something." Rajiv was very angry when he saw that no one spoke, and continued to ask Sendarji questions. After all, he was the Chief of Staff of the Army and was responsible for commanding all the Indian troops.

"Prime Minister, we have an infantry division in Chandigarh that can be sent there temporarily. However, we don't know the Pakistani target. The consequences of an infantry division against an armored force are difficult to predict. They are more suitable for street fighting in the city. If we send this infantry division there, and the Pakistani target is Chandigarh, it is just like giving our city to the Pakistanis." Sendarji continued.

Originally, there were many troops in the north, but the main armored forces were transferred to the south. As a result, the Pakistanis just came from the north and hit their weak points.

Moreover, inaccurate judgment of the Pakistani Army will cause passivity and even lead to the fall of the city. No one can bear this responsibility.

Whether there are losses in the air force or the navy, India's territory is at least intact. What they can't tolerate the most and is the biggest mistake is the loss of their own territory. Among all the failures, the loss of the Kashmir Valley is the most painful page in India's history.

"Is it just this infantry division?" Rajiv also knew that it was very stupid to use infantry to stop tanks, but now, there seemed to be no better way.

"We still have armored forces." General Ashok K. Mehta said: "The 23rd Armored Brigade and the 55th Mechanized Brigade can quickly rush over to support."

"How can that be! These two forces are used to protect our New Delhi!" said Sundarji.

No one thought of moving these two armies, because they are stationed near New Delhi. Once something happens in New Delhi, they will come to protect it as soon as possible.

"Do we have a better choice?" General Mehta said: "If we don't stop the Pakistanis as soon as possible, God knows what they will do."

"We can use infantry! We can blow up the bridge!" said Sundarji.

Infantry can stop armored forces! A Pakistani infantry division forcibly blocked the Indian armored division on the banks of the Indus River because the Pakistanis blew up the bridge. The same method can be used by the Pakistanis!

"Blow up the bridge?" General Meta said, "Which bridge should we blow up?"

Although it was the same infantry blocking the armored troops, the situation was different. The Indians' goal was clear, which was to go to Karachi, and no one knew where the Pakistani armored troops were going.

They could blow up one or two bridges, but it was impossible to blow up all the nearby bridges, which would cause India's transportation to be completely interrupted. After the war, the cost of rebuilding these bridges would be astronomical.

There are five or six rivers of different sizes nearby.

After hearing General Meta's words, Sendarji was silent. Who could predict the movements of the Pakistani army? That Muhammad was simply a madman. Why didn't the Soviets kill him on the battlefield in Afghanistan?

"We can't hesitate any longer." Rajiv said, "Send out the infantry division in Chandigarh. Send out our 23rd Armored Brigade and 55th Mechanized Brigade to encircle and suppress the Pakistani armored forces that have entered our territory! If necessary, blow up the bridges along the way! Order the Disagar Mobile Force in Madhya Pradesh to be transferred to the vicinity of New Delhi. Take on the task of defending New Delhi."

"Yes." Sundarji said.

Since the Prime Minister has agreed to such a combat deployment, what else can he say? The Disagar Mobile Force is moving quickly. After receiving the order, it should be able to arrive in New Delhi within two days.

Will the Pakistanis attack New Delhi? It is said that they have no chance for the time being, and now, the important thing is to block this terrible armored force of Pakistan.

"Prime Minister, the Soviet ambassador wants to see you." After making a new decision, it was already dawn. Now, hearing the Soviet ambassador's request for a meeting, Rajiv frowned. Could it be that the Soviets urged him to continue to contain the Pakistani army on the eastern front to relieve their pressure in Afghanistan? If this is true, I should curse. India's losses are already great. Two armored divisions are surrounded and unable to break out. It is impossible for us to start a new war. Now it is not a matter of containing the Pakistani army, but preventing the Pakistani army from wreaking havoc on our territory!

When he met the Soviet ambassador, Rajiv's attitude was very cold: "Mr. Ambassador, what else do you want?"

"We learned that your navy and air force suffered huge losses. After research by Moscow, we decided to provide your navy with six frigates free of charge to make up for your losses. Please send personnel from your navy to our Northern Fleet base to receive them." said the Soviet ambassador.

This is still a human saying! Now we are indeed in urgent need of battleships.

"Is it your Storm Petrel frigate?" Rajiv asked. This kind of frigate is the main force of the Soviet Navy. It is equipped with various advanced missiles and has balanced air defense and anti-submarine capabilities. NATO designation Krivak class.

"It's our Type 50. The performance of these warships is pretty good." said the Soviet ambassador.

Type 50! Rajiv was immediately relieved. This was not a missile frigate at all. The weapons on it were backward artillery! NATO named the Riga class. Judging from the time, these warships have reached the end of their service life in the Soviet navy. It is time to retire, so this kind of junk was thrown to India!

Rajiv's dissatisfaction was immediately vented: "Please pay attention, we are your allies, is this how you treat your allies? We have paid the loss of dozens of battleships! There are hundreds more aircraft! If you can’t support us, I think our American friends will also welcome us.”

If Pakistan had not played a key role in the Afghan war, the United States would have always maintained good relations with India, where would it be like now! If the Soviet Union cannot support India, then switching to the United States is also a good choice.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Prime Minister." The Soviet ambassador said: "Our losses are also very large. Moscow has begun to control our military budget. If we continue to overspend, this war will not be able to continue. With Hamad's Personality, I am afraid that I will take revenge with all my strength.”

All this, damn Pakistan, damn Mhamad! Rajiv's red eyes were almost burning.

"If you feel that those frigates cannot meet your requirements, they can be modified in our shipyard. You only need to provide the cost price." said the Soviet ambassador.

Providing ships for free and making money through modifications, the Soviet Union began to play tricks on the Indians in this era.

Unfortunately, Rajiv didn't know what the plan was and immediately agreed: "Yes, it must be modified! It must have anti-ship missiles and anti-aircraft missiles!"

"We will definitely satisfy you." The Soviet ambassador continued: "Now, I heard that the Pakistani army has entered Indian territory?"

Rajiv was filled with anger when he mentioned this matter.

"Yes, the Pakistani army actually dared to invade our country!" Rajiv said, "We will definitely fight back!"

"Pakistan's army is not strong. What they mainly have is air force superiority." The Soviet ambassador said: "In order to help you kill Pakistan's air force, we are willing to provide you with some short-range missiles."

Short-range missiles! Hearing the words of the Soviet ambassador, Rajiv suddenly felt happy.

Last time, the Soviet Union used only five ballistic missiles to completely destroy the Peshawar base. Until now, Pakistan has not allowed the base to completely resume operations.

The power of ballistic missiles is huge, and the party being attacked has no room to fight back.

"Now, the Pakistan Air Force is mainly concentrated at the Sargoda Air Force Base in the east. As long as you have ballistic missiles with a range of 500 kilometers, you can attack them near New Delhi. The ideal launch site is in India west of New Delhi. In the desert, we have decided to provide you with twenty Scud missiles, enough to completely destroy the Pakistani air force base!”

Scud missiles! This is already a backward liquid missile. It has been exported to many countries and has begun to be retired from the Soviet army.

The Soviets made a good plan by bringing this decommissioned weapon to use its residual heat, which happened to kill the Pakistani air force base.

"Twenty bombs are not enough, we need at least a hundred." Rajiv said: "We will use a complete attack to blow up all the air bases in Pakistan and completely prevent their fighter planes from taking off and landing!"

Last time, if the Soviets had been stronger, invested more ballistic missiles, and completely paralyzed all the air bases in Pakistan, they would have achieved a complete victory long ago.

Rajiv knew that the Soviet Union's most advanced Oka missiles were unavailable to the Soviet Union. It would be fine with these backward Scuds, a hundred of them! (To be continued ~^~)
