The loud noise from the left flank in front made Chen Jitang immediately realize that his flank troops were under attack. He quickly picked up the binoculars and looked in that direction. He saw that the front position of the 1st Division had already begun to attack. After a fierce exchange of fire, more than a dozen enemy tanks were penetrating into the inner circle of the division in a "Z" formation.

Faced with this situation, Chen Jitang did not panic, because he had already seen that the enemy's raid troops were few in strength, and the organized offensive was also very weak.When a highly mobile tank unit encounters a large enemy force, it does not give priority to evacuation, but instead makes this kind of behavior. The problem is very intriguing.There is no doubt that this coalition force is delaying time in this way.

"Order the 1st Division to handle the battle on its own, and we will move forward at a faster speed." Chen Jitang turned sideways and said to the correspondent waiting for instructions below, "Tell them to deal with these flies as soon as possible, so that they don't affect the artillery battalion behind. "

The correspondent immediately conveyed Chen Jitang's order.At the same time, the battle of the 1st Division was in full swing. The three Covenanters who rushed into the Dragon Army tank camp first, but obviously moved too fast, and they lost the protection of the rear. Perhaps relying on this fast forward The insertion speed can make the dragon army suffer a little in the initial assault, but when the battle enters a stalemate, their end will come.There was no suspense in this battle in a small area. Several consecutive shells were fired, and almost instantly, the turrets of the two Covenanters were directly overturned to the ground, turning into two piles of worthless scrap iron .Although the last one escaped the first wave of artillery attack from the Dragon Army, its nightmare had just begun. A shell directly hit the track on its flank. The latter becomes a dead target that does not move.The five French soldiers in the cabin obviously also had a premonition that the situation was not good. One of the soldiers in black armor opened the hatch and got out, preparing to escape from the "living coffin", but before he could escape After two steps, a shell hit the tank's turret directly. The flying shrapnel and the cracked armor sheet hit the soldier, cutting off the entire calf of his right leg.Immediately, before he could scream a few times, a dragon army tank rushing over from the flank, ran over firmly on his rolling body, like an iron wheel running over a tree. banana.

After annihilating the three Covenant vehicles that charged into the front of the array, the tank formation on the right wing of the 1st Division immediately began to charge. With this powerful assault, the forty main battle Crusaders that were originally in the rear position The tank was exposed, and less than 150 meters behind them was a dragon-type heavy tank with enough firepower to frighten people.

In terms of strength alone, the British Crusader tank has no way to compete with the enhanced Dragon tank of the Dragon Army. Whether it is the thickness of the armor or the power of the artillery, the Dragon tank has a huge advantage , thick armor, excellent defensive appearance, and 92mm tank guns are the most favorable conditions against enemy tanks, and its biggest weakness is the lack of radio communication devices. The Bureau of Industry has just rolled off the assembly line, and it is still in the testing stage. It has not yet achieved mass production. Due to the urgency of the Sino-Indian war, the military decided to put the Dragon tank test directly on the Indian battlefield and match it. The radio device has not been developed in time. In this way, due to the lack of radio communication devices, there is no effective cooperative combat capability between tanks. In sudden tank battles, the Dragon tank is bound to be here. Suffer some disadvantages.But its designers believe that in the face of such a powerful tank, apart from nuclear bombs, no offensive weapons will pose a threat to it. Even without the addition of radio devices, it will be a well-deserved king on the battlefield.

The Dragon heavy tank uses many parts of the Tiger and Panther tanks. At the same time, it also embodies many new technical features. The Dragon is equipped with a 92mm cannon with a barrel length of 6.3 meters. It is the most powerful tank in the world today. The tank artillery can directly penetrate the main armor of the American M2000 "Sherman" tank at a distance of 4 meters. Can penetrate all types of tanks in the world today.

The body and turret of the Dragon tank are steel armor welded structures, the bulletproof shape is better, and the thickness of the frontal armor is much higher than that of the Tiger tank.The entire tank weighs 67.5 tons. The turret is controlled by the hydraulic engine to rotate, and it can also be rotated manually. It is equipped with two tracks, a 660mm narrow track for railway transportation and a wider 800mm combat track.The maximum effective range of the tank's main artillery is 10 kilometers. It is equipped with a muzzle brake and a monocular sight. The range of the artillery is +17 degrees to 8 degrees. At close range, there are very few weapons that can actually destroy its frontal armor.The crew of the tank is 20 people, namely: the commander, the gunner, the loader, the electromechanical officer, and the front machine gunner.The above data created the strongest steel monster in history.

When Karen discovered the Dragon tanks standing out from the front line of Dragon Army tanks, his first thought was to follow the previous British armored attack tactics and command the four tanks under his command to move at high speed to avoid the leading tanks. The frontal view of the Dragon tank, and then interspersed with its flanks.No matter what kind of tank it is, its observation port can only observe the enemy's movements within a certain range, and the same should be true for the Dragon type.It is under such circumstances that the operations of any tank unit have very high requirements for the coordination and cooperation between the tanks of each other.But this time, Karen's fate was obviously not good. He encountered a big nail. He commanded the four tanks that rushed to the flank and encountered a catastrophe.When they detoured to the side of the dragon tank at a distance of nearly 200 meters, the target stopped suddenly, and then quickly fell back.At the same time, a shot was fired towards a covenanter rushing up from the left flank.Although the gun missed the target during the rapid fallback, the protruding Dragon tank safely retreated into the formation of the three Leopard tanks that followed.

"boom!"

With the sound of a cannon, the Dragon tank adjusted its muzzle after returning to a safe position, and roared at a rushing Crusader tank with unparalleled and earth-shattering vigor, and the shell hit the Crusader tank accurately. The frontal turret turned it into a twinkling bonfire.

The remaining three Covenant tanks couldn't fight the outflanking tactics they saw, so they had to build a defensive position on the spot. At the same time, they focused on a Leopard tank on the left flank. After three consecutive gunshots, this The side armor of a Leopard tank was hit, and thick smoke billowed out from the tank's vent holes and lookout openings.In the next display of the dragon's power, it was like entering no one's land. One shot at a time blasted the enemy's tanks to pieces, but it also attracted more firepower to counterattack. In order to protect the dragon's tanks, all The Bear and Lion tanks had to temporarily give up the group attack on the enemy tanks. Chen Jitang also ordered the Dragon tanks not to participate in the attack, but to keep moving at a constant speed within a radius of two kilometers.

However, when they were besieging the Leopard tank, the other tanks of the Dragon Army on this line also launched a counterattack. The two Tiger tanks on the right flank fired at a Covenanter directly in front of them at the same time. With one shot, the explosive power of the shell tore through the front armor of the tank and caused an explosion in its cockpit. With a deafening roar, the Covenant was torn into pieces.

At the same time, another covenanter that rushed into the dragon army was also directly hit by shells from all sides, turning it into a pile of worthless scrap iron.The last remaining British tank in this shock formation was a Matilda infantry tank with better maneuverability, but it was too late to turn, so it drove back and retreated. It was too late, and the two Bear tanks outflanking from the left had already aimed their muzzles at its flank armor. With the sound of two cannon shots, the remaining British tank was completely scrapped.

Just when the 1st Division of the Dragon Army had just started the tank encirclement and annihilation battle, Chen Jitang had already led the tank troops in his direction and advanced to a position several hundred meters in front of the left flank. The attack of the French Charr tanks lurking in the sunken area of ​​the woods, although he kept reminding the formation on the right wing close to the woods to beware of the enemy's ambush, but a reckless Tiger tank was destroyed in the battle on the first day of the new year, which made Chen Jitang feel very sad. Annoyed, although the current loss is insignificant compared with the results of the battle, it definitely cannot meet his requirements. If the destroyed tank is a supply tank, he may feel better, but the Tiger is his main battle heavy tank , originally equipped with not many, at this time when the large-scale battle has not yet started, how can it be easily lost?

But now Chen Jitang didn't have much time to get angry, because the forty French Soma tanks lurking in the jungle had rushed out and rushed directly into his tank battle formation.During this process, a Leopard tank on the right flank of the front array fired a shot at one of the Soma, hitting its left armor, but unfortunately, the shell failed to inflict damage on Soma. The damage, presumably from the wrong angle of the shot, the shell slipped away.However, this Soma immediately launched a counterattack. With the rotation of the turret, a furious shell flew out of Soma's barrel, and the direct counterattack hit the front of the Leopard-style turret. The huge explosion impact knocked the fragile The Leopard tank fell to the ground and could no longer move.

Facing the forty enemy tanks rushing into his ranks, Chen Jitang quickly issued an order. He ordered the twenty Tiger tanks that were originally guarding his right side to quickly detour to the edge of the woodland so as to outflank the enemy tanks. and attack it.At the same time, he ordered the [-] Tiger tanks in front of him to attack the formation in the shape of a character, covering the [-] Lion tanks to attack the flanks of the [-] Soma tanks, in an attempt to finish off the forty Soma tanks in the shortest possible time. Forty French tanks.

Under Chen Jitang's command, half of the forty Soma vehicles fighting alone were quickly destroyed, and the remaining twenty vehicles lost their mobility due to damaged tracks. In the end, they were forced to give up resistance and became prisoners.

The small-scale battle in this area took Chen Jitang more than 20 minutes. He didn't know how much the 20 minutes would affect the follow-up operations, but he knew that more than 20 minutes could make a tank unit To do many things, such as organize more than a small-scale ambush, set up a temporary anti-tank assault position, etc., and most importantly, after this delay of twenty minutes, he could not predict the enemy's tank force, Will he arrange more ambushes on the road ahead, so that he will have to be more careful and thus slower.

Just on the outskirts of Mithra, in this large-scale tank battle between the two armies, the New Crusaders lost 790 tanks successively, including more than 400 tanks of the main Crusaders and Soma tanks. The losses suffered were much smaller. Among the sixty destroyed or damaged tanks, there were only ten Tigers and sixteen Lions.Although in terms of military strength, the Dragon Army's tank troops have an overwhelming advantage, but to a certain extent, it is also the huge combat effectiveness of modern armored troops in coordinated operations in wars.

After severely injuring the armored forces of the coalition forces, the armored forces of the Dragon Army did not break through Mithras from the front, but went straight to the right flank of the defenders from the plain on the left.Unwilling to fight at first, the Indian soldiers who used the coalition forces as a barrier were suddenly hit on the flanks, and their positions became a mess.Under the large-scale impact of the tank cluster, the Indian soldiers were simply vulnerable, and they turned into birds and beasts with a "boom". No matter how the officers hoarse and exhausted, no one is willing to listen to them anymore.The coalition soldiers guarding in Mithra saw that the Indian Ah San was so vulnerable, and said to his grandma and grandson, it is your country anyway, and we don't need to die for you, so they followed the Indian soldiers and retreated in a large area.In just 45 minutes, the powerful armored forces of the empire crushed Meerut's defensive positions and took Meerut into its own hands. At this time, Delhi, the important city of India, was in sight.

When the dragon army tanks rumbled into Meerut, they found a strange scene. Countless Indians were wearing national costumes, waving flowers and Chinese national flags to welcome them. Most of the leaders were well-dressed. rich people.These Indians saw the steel monsters driving into Meerut one after another, and they were all stunned. What are these things?Some timid Indians even threw away the flowers, yelling that the monster was coming and had no time to run away.The Dragon Army soldiers poked their heads out of the tank one by one, looking at the Indians who welcomed them with interest.

At this time, a big fat Indian came over surrounded by a group of people. When he saw the tank, he couldn't help showing a scared expression, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Arunachal Pradesh Governor Aghmanla welcomes the distinguished Chinese general and his brave soldiers to liberate India!" the big fat man Agmanla said humbly. He wanted to bow and salute, but his huge belly made him He couldn't even bend down.

In this world, in any region or any country, as long as there is war, there will be traitors, and India is of course no exception.India is a multi-ethnic and multi-religious country. Some people have illusions about the war launched by their own country, and some think it is an extremely stupid decision. Agmanla is a Muslim and the governor of India A typical representative of Chinese pro-China, he even stubbornly believes that Allah has long abandoned India and has been blessing China.He led a group of his cronies and sneaked into Meerut in advance before China attacked India. As soon as the Chinese army attacked Meerut, Agmanla wreaked havoc everywhere in the city. Rumors spread everywhere that those who surrendered were saved from death, kept their property, and those who resisted were put to death.

Those rich Indians living in Meerut were uneasy after China’s invasion of India, for fear that the Chinese would damage their inherent interests. When Agmanla said so, the artillery outside Meerut As soon as the sound sounded, the already vacillating Indians panicked even more.These people are considered smart, they have prepared two different national flags of China and the United Kingdom, anyway, whoever wins they will wave the flag of which country.Please both sides, neither side suffers.This is the common wisdom of businessmen all over the world.

After finishing his speech, Agmanla didn't respond to the oncoming tank, as if he didn't hear his words, but had no intention of slowing down when he was about to reach him.Agmanla, who was about to be hit, panicked and didn't know how to dodge. Fortunately, the followers around him gave him a hand, which avoided a disaster.

The top cover of the tank was opened, and Chen Jitang jumped out of the tank wearing an officer's uniform.Seeing the rank of major general on Chen Jitang's uniform, Agmanla hastily stepped forward and repeated what he had just said in a more humble tone: "Arunachal Pradesh Governor Agmanla welcomes the distinguished Chinese general and your brave and skilled soldiers. Liberate India!"

"Oh, you are Agmanla, you entered the city earlier than us." Chen Jitang said lukewarmly: "Hurry up and prepare some food for my troops, we have to hurry." His tone It's not like talking to the Indian governor at all, it's more like ordering his servants.

Agmanla was not angry at all, nodded and bowed and said: "Don't worry, honorable general, the food has been prepared for you. It will be served to your subordinates immediately. As for you, I hope I can have the honor to meet with you." You have dinner together, by the way, my general counselor Mr. Ma Qiang is also eagerly looking forward to your arrival."

Chen Jitang was in a hurry and wanted to decline his invitation, but when he heard that his old friend Ma Qiang was there, he saw that the tanks were also being supplied, and he didn't object, so he followed Agmanla into a room that looked quite dignified. the house.

"Old Chen, you're so proud now, commanding the armored division all the way, pass the test, it's not like I can only be a cat here and get entangled with these Indian assholes!" Chen Jitang heard a man's voice as soon as he entered the door. Laughter, without even thinking about it, he could tell that it was Ma Qiang's voice.

Ma Qiang is a Chinese businessman who came to India a year ago to engage in raw silk and spice business, but this is just a cover. In fact, his real identity is a senior agent of the Imperial Security Bureau in northern India. After China marched into India, he was ordered to It has been nearly a month since I went to Mithra to contact Agmanla.

Chen Jitang smiled and hugged Ma Qiang: "I'm not as comfortable as you. I can't get wind and rain all day long. I'm just a hard worker. Tell me honestly, how many Indian women have you played with in a while?"

Ma Qiang laughed: "Eat and eat, let's chat while eating."

During the meal, the two chatted and laughed happily. Agmanla kept busy pouring wine and vegetables, looking like a servant, and the other Indians at the dinner table were not to be outdone, and continued to speak flatteringly. One sentence, they didn't feel nauseous at all, but Chen Jitang and Ma Qiang got goose bumps all over their bodies when they heard it.

"Brother, do you usually hang out with these people?" Chen Jitang looked at his old friend sympathetically, "It's thanks to you that you can bear it. Otherwise, I'd rather go to the front line and be a soldier."

Ma Qiang heaved a long sigh: "You take it for granted that I did a good job in the army, so I was not sent to be an undercover agent. I stayed in the Balkans for several years and was about to go home to reunite with my wife and children. This place where birds don't lay eggs, three years later and three years later, I don't know when there will be a chance to surface. That's why I envy you. In the future, if you win the battle, you will have the opportunity to meet the emperor. In the future, if you enter Jing has the opportunity to meet Mr. Zhao, the chief of the Security Bureau, and he has to say a few good words for me, even if I am a soldier fighting a gun on the front line, I am willing, it is better than staying here!"

When talking about Beijing, Chen Jitang patted his head: "Almost forgot, Mr. Xu asked me to bring you a letter before joining the war. If you don't mention Beijing, I really have to forget."

He took out a sweat-soaked letter from his pocket and handed it to Ma Qiang.Ma Qiang opened the letter, glanced at it roughly, and called, "Your Excellency Agmanla."

"Yes!" Agmanla, who dared not intervene, saw that the two Chinese officers were chatting excitedly, and suddenly heard Ma Qiang call his name, and hurriedly responded.

Ma Qiang said solemnly: "According to the secret order of the emperor of the Chinese Empire, it is time for the All-India Muslim League to prepare for the establishment of the country. The leader of the alliance, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, is actively preparing for activities to subvert the southern regime. The Imperial Security Bureau will secretly assist .”

The sudden good news made Agmanla dumbfounded, he didn't know what to say, he wondered if his ears heard it wrong, or the Chinese were looking for his pleasure.

In the South Asian subcontinent, there has been a long-standing dispute between Hinduism and Islam. From the bloody destruction of Buddhism by ancient Islam, the establishment of the Mughal Empire to its full glory, and the resurgence of Hinduism later, it suppressed Islam so much that it could not hold its head up. In the middle, there were repeated struggles between the two sides.Now when Agmanla heard that China is fully supporting the establishment of the Islamic country, all this happened so suddenly that he was not mentally prepared at all.

Wind and Thunder Agitated Three Thousand Miles Chapter 674 Allah Bless Pakistan

"Aggmanla, don't you want to?" Ma Qiang said coldly, he looked down on this fat man from the bottom of his heart, if he didn't have a mission, he wouldn't even bother to say a word to him.

Agmanla said repeatedly: "Thank you empire, thank you Your Majesty the Great Emperor. Agmanla represents our leader of the Islamic world, Jinnah, who will be grateful for China's kindness to us for life. Sun, it will not change from generation to generation!" When he said the next few words, his voice was full of tears, and his subordinates also desperately expressed their gratitude to the two Chinese officers.Everyone in their hearts is thinking about it. The Islamic world will finally turn around one day, but it seems that the real power is still in the hands of the Chinese. Don't take advantage of the current big flattery of the Chinese, and the future will be banned. It is estimated that the reward will not have its own share.

Ma Qiang said to Agmanla: "In that case, let's announce it to the whole world after dinner."

Agman was taken aback, and announced after eating?This is too sloppy, too immodest, right?Moreover, the Islamic leader Jinnah is not around, so he does not know the news. If it is announced now, the Indian government will immediately point the finger at the Muslims, and even lead to a bloody massacre.

"Mr. General Counsel." Agmanla said cautiously, for fear of annoying the Chinese: "The establishment of an Islamic country is a big event after all, and making it more grand can boost the morale of all Muslims against the Indian government. Nothing, but we should let our leader Jinnah know about it in advance, from the perspective of liberating India and the Indian people, do you think it will be held for a while?"

Ma Qiang said impatiently: "Now is the time of war, everything is kept simple, as long as the Islamic League exists, it will naturally encourage the determination of Muslims to resist the Indian government, and with the support of the Chinese government, what are you afraid of? Just follow my Do what you say, and do it after eating."

Agmanla was speechless and dared not say anything else, if he continued to object.

That afternoon, with the military support of the Chinese army, Agmanla announced to the world through Mithra's radio station: "The All India Islamic League solemnly announces the establishment of an Islamic country in the South Asian subcontinent—Pakistan, Muhammad Ali Jinnah As the first leader of the new country, the capital will be Islamabad."

"The future constitution should be a federal constitution, and the provinces should have certain rights. All provinces should have the same autonomy. All elected bodies in the country should have appropriate electoral methods that effectively reflect the minority groups in the provinces. This electoral method should not make the majority a minority or just as many. At least one-third of the seats in the central legislature are Muslim. Local elections are still held as separate elections today, but this does not preclude abandonment at any time in the future The possibility of separate elections and unified elections..." At the annual meeting of the Muslim League held in Mumbai, Jinnah, like a tireless ascetic, was still promoting his political views to representatives from all walks of life in India.

During the break of the meeting, a secretary found Jinnah and handed him a telegram from Mithra. Jinnah put on his glasses and read it carefully, with a subtle expression on his face. I couldn't tell whether it was excitement or shock, but the hand holding the telegram was trembling.He knew that from this moment on, the cause of Muslims, which he had fought for half his life, was finally coming to an end.He immediately reconvened all the Muslim representatives in India without hesitation, and read out this exciting news in front of everyone. The audience was thunderous, standing up and applauding for as long as 10 minutes, and immediately performed the election procedures. In the end, Jinnah deservedly became the first leader of Pakistan.

Standing on the rostrum, looking at the audience of thousands of Muslim representatives from all over India, Jinnah said loudly: "In the past, I used to say that the real progress of India can only be achieved through the sincere understanding between these two great societies. and harmony can only be achieved, but after many experiences have proved that the Hindu sects will not allow Islam to have its own living space, and the non-violent non-cooperation movement advocated by Gandhi is a deception for us. Now, I officially Calling on all Muslims in India to unite and seek a permanent place under the sun for Pakistan! May Allah bless us."

After this meeting, Jinnah, despite his fatigue, flew straight to Beijing to meet His Majesty the Emperor of China.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your tolerant understanding and support. I am here to meet you on behalf of the Muslim people in India. I hope to receive stronger support from the Chinese Empire in the future." Jinnah said sincerely.

Guan Xuqing was also very moved when he saw this Islamic leader with gray hair before he was 40 years old. In the eyes of Muslims all over India, this man has a god-like status. "Of course, China is committed to maintaining world peace and justice, and has long been paying close attention to religious discrimination in South Asia. This time our war against India is not against Muslims or the Indian people, but against corrupt The Nehru government, as early as a few years ago, we had a pleasant meeting, and I deeply sympathize with the experience of Muslims, so this time, taking advantage of the opportunity to attack the Indian government, the empire decided to support Pakistan at any cost. But then again Having said that, I might as well tell you the truth, any political concealment requires the exchange of interests, so the aid of the empire is also limited and conditional. At present, I am planning a political concept of the Greater China Federation, if If Pakistan can join this federation, I think everyone will become a family, and Pakistan will always be under the protection of the empire, what do you think?"
