Chapter 171: Kill them all
, the morning of the moon knife morning. Rurajapani arrives in Brochi, north of Surat
Because the Au army had already entered the city of Surat in the early morning of Liri and occupied the vital railway station. On the morning of the same day, the Concave army had advanced its front to the Arabian Sea and completed the blockade of Surat, so the convoy escorting Rurajapani stopped at Broch and prepared to take an alternative route to Hyderabad.
Although Rurajapani and his party were only 100 people. But it will not be easy to break through the defense of the squadron.
Heading south from Brog, one had to pass through the lines of the Concave Army and the Exit Army to reach Mumbai. Although the defense lines of the two armies are hundreds of kilometers long, and it is impossible to deploy troops on the entire defense line, the concave army and the army have deployed thousands of sensors on the defense line, and as long as there are personnel passing through the defense line, the air mobile patrol force will arrive in minutes, and the ground armored patrol force can also arrive within the thugs.
Going south is tantamount to taking a Narurajapani adventure. Both the officers and men of the Hong army and the officers and men who have left the army will not miss the opportunity to make the Indian prime minister a prisoner of war.
If you don't go to Mumbai, you can only take a detour to the east.
Although it is possible to go by sea, and the guards have also prepared speedboats in Brocky, the Chinese fleet has blocked the entire Kenpad Bay, not to mention speedboats, and even windsurfers do not want to go to sea. Besides, no matter how fast the speedboat is, it can't outrun the fighter.
To the east, you have to go up the Narmoda River and then through the Licking Line.
There is no doubt that this line is more dangerous. Because on the two lines of defense from Mandreshevor to Hilpur and Itarhi to Psavour, in addition to the sword army and the Nu army, which were responsible for the defense of the position. There are also 10,000 logistics support personnel. Although logistical support personnel are not combatants. But they are all real soldiers. More importantly, the density of the distribution of logistics support forces is very large. Now that the Indian army is now calling for support, the combat units carrying out combat defense missions in the vicinity will be able to arrive in more than 10 minutes.
It is clear that Rurajapani has nowhere to go.
Of course, the worst is yet to be born.
On the afternoon of the exchange of days, the Bi army completed a sweep operation in the city of Surat, and after interrogating dozens of senior Indian army officers, it was confirmed that Rurajapani had not yet reached Surat.
Hongjun's intelligence was quickly confirmed by the dispatch of troops. Because there was no unusual behavior on the upward part of the Indian army.
Rurajapani has left New Delhi but has not reached Surat.
Pei Chengyi didn't think much about it, and in the evening of the same day, he let the gangsters cross the Dabuti River and sweep the northern area of Surat.
Rurajapani is definitely somewhere to the north and is looking for an opportunity to "break out".
Subsequently, Pei Chengyi contacted Xiang Linghui. After obtaining the permission of the chief of the general staff, Pei Chengyi, as the commander-in-chief of the front of the republic, issued a reward order: 40,000 yuan to reward Rurajapani.
Although this may seem like a violation of the laws of war, it was in Rurajapani that he fled New Delhi. In the case of the Indian government, the reward for the capture of the Prime Minister of the Indian Government can only be regarded as an act of war, not a political act. Of course. Other countries have not done it without it, and the United States has been offering rewards for the capture of members of the Taliban government in Afghanistan.
The bounty order is valid not only for republicans, but also for Indians.
That night, Pei Chengyi asked the printing houses in Pakistan to produce several tens of thousands of leaflets, and then sent them to the front line by transport plane, so that the officers and men of the gangster army could distribute the leaflets along the way. The Indians who caught Rurajapani and handed Rurajapani over to the Republican ** team can also get a bounty of 10,000 yuan, and the Indians who provide the news. Depending on the importance and accuracy of the message, a bounty of 240,000 yuan to 10,000 yuan can be obtained. In the eyes of any Indian, not to mention the strength of the ten thousand and the blade, the ten thousand yuan is a huge wealth.
In the early morning of the flying day, the officers and men of the gangster army began to distribute leaflets.
By this time, the vanguard of the Gangster Army had reached Brogch, and the Indian troops stationed there put up only a weak resistance, and as the armored troops of the Gangsters drove into the city, tens of thousands of Indian officers and soldiers fled.
The vanguard continued northward, while the main force began to search for Broch.
Based on the time Rurajapayan left New Delhi and the information provided by some prisoners of war, the Military Intelligence Bureau roughly concluded that Rurajapani was in the vicinity of Broch, and it was very likely that he was hiding somewhere the population was relatively concentrated, intending to take advantage of the chaos to escape from the encirclement of the gangsters.
According to the information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency, Pei Chengyi personally commanded the operation of Sobroch.
Before the main force of the Blade Army entered the city, dozens of vessels once they reached the sky above Brocky, and warned all the citizens of Brogch through loudspeakers that when the army entered the city, civilians would stay at home and wait for the occupying army to search them. In order to dispel the revolt of the citizens, the propaganda did not mention the arrest of Rurajapani, but only declared that the occupying forces would provide the citizens with the necessities of life for a week, in order to avoid accidents when distributing the supplies. The occupying forces would deliver supplies to each household, and the amount of supplies would be determined according to the number of people in each household.
The news went out, and the preparations were quickly in place.
Hundreds of heavy trucks delivered thousands of tons of supplies, and the gangsters organized dozens of "material detachments" in companies. Of course. Before that, the gangsters also did a very important thing, that is, they sent an assault force to the city government from the air to get the population file of the city.
The main force of the gangster army entered the city.
Lured by supplies, almost all of the citizens of Broch stayed at home. The officers and men of the Blade Army delivered bags of rice, flour, canned food, fruits, vegetables, edible oil, water purifiers, and commonly used medicines...... Wait. The citizens of Broch not only did not resist. They were also very happy, and many people in the city asked to take pictures with the officers and soldiers of the Republic. As for the search, because the materials provided by the republican ** team were obtained, as long as the private property was not damaged, the search should be searched.
The attitude of the citizens of Broch is understandable, because, like New Delhi, supplies are extremely scarce.
For the vast majority of citizens, if the occupying forces can change the status quo, provide them with the necessary necessities, and give them sufficient respect, in their eyes, there is no difference between serving the occupying forces and serving the government, when the government is unable to provide them with basic livelihood guarantees and the garrison still harasses them from time to time.
Such thinking is prevalent throughout India.
In the eyes of the vast majority of Indians, it can be said. The Indian government collapsed, even if it was ruled by a foreigner. What kind of life the people should live and what kind of life they have gone through will not change greatly because of the change of rulers. For some 100 million Indians living below the extreme poverty line, who make up about 70 per cent of India's population, even foreign rule will not make life worse when they already have nothing.
In such a situation, can India still count on a "people's war"?
To a large extent, the "people's war" is not a military campaign, but a political one. Although before the outbreak of war. A large number of people, led by military experts from Western countries, believe that no matter how powerful China is, as long as it invades India, it will fall into the vast ocean of people's war, and even if the squadron can easily defeat the Indian army, it will fall at the feet of hundreds of millions of Indians. In the end, the war was lost, but since the beginning of the war, there has been no so-called "people's war" in India. And European and American military experts tout the people's war, in addition to ulterior political intentions. It has a lot to do with the fact that they don't know much about the actual situation in India.
When the people of a country with more than 7 Ni are living below the extreme poverty line, and there is no guarantee of basic livelihood, let alone social welfare, public health, basic education, etc., when there is no hope for life, will they fight to recruit and enslave their ruling clique? Perhaps many people think that India has a large population, and even if only the Indians rise up to resist, it can make the squadron fall into a quagmire from which they cannot extricate themselves. Indeed, the population of India is indeed very large, let alone Wei. Even if only the indignant Indians rise up to resist, the squadron will not be able to eat and walk around. The problem is that among the pasty Indians, the so-called middle class makes up about 2 houses, and the vast majority of these people are also victims of Indian society, most of whom have achieved modest achievements in the economic reforms of previous years, and have become victims of interests as India's traditional forces come to power again. Not to mention that they will rise up against the ruling class in the war, and everything will be fine if they do not stand against the ruling class in the war. Among the rest of the Indians who are less than gills, except for the big families who have mastered the lifeblood of India, most of them are rich people with connections with foreign forces or foreign consortia. There is no doubt that no such rich man will go to war. Those who have a little ability have already transferred their children overseas before the outbreak of the war, and even if they are not capable, they will sweep away the wealth and leave India to others.
Looking back, how big is India at this time compared to when it was a colony?
Rurajapani's repeated encouragement of the Indians and their attempts to arouse their will to resist have all ended in vain, which is enough to show how dissatisfied the Indians are with the government.
Ordinary civilians will surely make a wise choice between the Bounty of Meritorious Tribute and Rurajapani.
In order to speed up the search, the gangster army sent more than 100 investigation teams at noon on the same day.
Brogch is not a big city, just a medium-sized city with a population of about Tianwan. After committing about the number of officers and men with blades, the search can be completed in one day.
In the afternoon, the search party of the gangsters found the speedboat specially prepared for Rurajapani.
Now the fuel tank of the speedboat is full of diesel, the cargo hold is stuffed with food, and after the coordinates of the route have been set in the navigation instrument, the gangsters immediately narrowed down the scope of the investigation.
Rurajapani was definitely in Broch and didn't run far.
Before evening, there was a violent explosion in the northeastern city of Broch.
Several squads that were in the vicinity were immediately dispatched. By the time they arrived at the accident site, a group of Indian soldiers dressed in civilian clothing were breaking through to the north in the face of thousands of people. The search force immediately opened the encirclement and called other combat forces in the surrounding area.
The battle lasted only half an hour before the Indian soldiers disarmed and surrendered.
When the interrogation of the prisoners of war began, the search team that arrived first was led by local citizens. A body burned beyond recognition was found.
About 2 hours later, Pei Chengyi received the data that the gangsters had just arrived. A comparison with the continental data provided by the Military Intelligence Agency (MIA) confirmed that it was Rurajapani himself who was killed in the scuffle.
No one thought that Rurajapani, who had been in the prime of Indian politics, would die like this.
What's even more unexpected is that Rurajapani was killed by a matchmaker!
At the time of the incident, Rurajapani was fleeing from Brogch under the escort of members of the Guards, as the block ahead had been cordoned off by search forces; So Rurajapani was ready to take refuge in a nearby dwelling. Unfortunately, the hostess of the house that the guards were looking for had just lost her sons, and all three of them had been forcibly conscripted into the army and killed in the siege of Surat. After recognizing Rurajapani, the hostess was very calm and entertained the prime minister very warmly, and then took advantage of the inattention of the guards to detonate the gas canister in the kitchen. The explosion attracted the citizens of the Sichuan system, and the members of the guard tried to break through. The first fire was opened on the unarmed citizens, and the river was annihilated by the rushing investigation troops.
The death of Rurajapani at the hands of the people he had sworn to protect is undoubtedly the greatest irony.
When Pei Chengyi received the news, Liu Xiaobin was also in the front-line headquarters.
According to Liu Xiaobin's request, Pei Chengyi had no news from the commune, and asked the gangsters to immediately block the location of the incident, stabilize the mood of the citizens, and prohibit anyone from spreading news.
It's just that for such a big thing, it is impossible to completely block the news.
About 2 hours after it was confirmed that Rurajapani had died, Yan Shanglong and Sullivan were again.
At this point, both knew that Rurajapani had been blown up by an angry Indian woman in Broch.
The Indian Prime Minister was killed, what will happen next, not to mention two officials who are proficient in diplomacy. Even ordinary people can think of it.
There is no doubt that the two are no longer discussing future threats, but actual threats.
Prior to that, Sullivan had spoken to Brandino on the phone several times.
As with Sullivan's attitude, providing military intelligence related to India's nuclear weapons is not a problem. Stopping military aid to India is also not a problem. Because both of these things are within the purview of the president and do not need to go through Congress. The key is not to interfere in India's internal affairs after the war and to recognize China's hegemonic position in India. Unacceptable to Blandino. To be precise, to make those members of Congress unacceptable.
If Brandino agrees to this clause, the first thing to do is to get American companies to divest from India.
Of course, even if US companies do not withdraw their capital from India, the Chinese government will not pursue this issue, and with the establishment of a new Indian government, it will certainly wipe out the assets of US companies in India. When the time comes, what will the US government do? As a rule, whenever the new Indian government takes action against American companies, the U.S. government will block Indian assets in the U.S. and impose sanctions on India. This power is not in the hands of the president. And in the hands of Congress. In other words, as long as Congress makes a proposal and it is passed by the Senate and the House of Representatives, even if the president does not approve it, Congress will repeatedly make a proposal and eventually the Supreme Court will arbitrate. In this way, Blandino is on the opposite side of Congress, and he is also on the opposite side of American interest groups. Offending the major American conglomerates, Blandino's ability to leave the White House without any damage is a blessing in misfortune.
It is clear that the price offered by the Chinese government is too high. It's simply unacceptable.
According to Blandino, unless the Chinese government provides a full guarantee for the assets of U.S. companies in India. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the United States not to impose sanctions on India after the war, let alone return India to the United States.
At Blandino's behest, Sullivan hurried to draft a document to that effect.
At the same time, Yan Shanglong also talked to Wang Yuanqing on the phone several times.
The negotiations were originally asking for a sky-high price, and the United States made concessions on the first condition and the third catty, which was already beyond Wang Yuanqing's expectations. According to Wang Yuanqing's original idea. At most, the United States promised to provide military intelligence. As long as the Indian government does not completely collapse, the United States will not stop providing military assistance to India. As for the second condition, it was not Wang Yuanqing's main purpose in the first place, but to take into account India's post-war reconstruction. Conditions for the upcoming new government of India. Of course, this can also bring great benefits to the enterprises of the republic. In other words, it is only a matter of time before U.S. companies divest from India, if some kind of compromise can be reached if the government can take the lead. Chinese companies can quickly fill the gap left by American companies and take control of the Indian market in the name of helping India rebuild after the war.
Of course, the key is not a compromise agreement from the government. Rather, it is a "commercial agreement" between the companies of the two countries. ”
After getting Sullivan's document, Yan Shanglong read it carefully.
After lighting a cigarette and taking two puffs, Yan Shanglong said, "I said two days ago that we can provide a guarantee. However, in practice, it is impossible for our government to provide guarantees for American companies, but only for the legitimate regime of India. In other words, the Chinese government will provide foreign exchange loans to the legitimate Indian regime, and the legitimate Indian regime will acquire the assets of US companies in India to complete the country's economic restructuring. ”
"What is the amount of collateral that can be provided?" Sullivan did not dwell on the issue of form, no matter who provided the guarantor, someone had to pay, and it would not be the U.S. federal government that would pay.
"We have roughly calculated that the total assets of your country's enterprises in India are about 5 trillion US dollars." Yan Shanglong slowly flicked off the cigarette ash and said, "But the actual investment is less than $300 billion, and with the damage caused by the war, we estimate that the assets of your country's enterprises in India will not exceed $500 billion." The Chinese government can provide 50 percent of the guarantee, that is, $250 billion, for the legitimate Indian regime to acquire the assets of your country's enterprises in India. ”
"Mr. Foreign Minister, this can't be done, us
"I know, in fact, we can talk about other ways to do it, such as your company to stay there
Sullivan was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't be happy.
"There's always a solution to the problem, isn't it?" Yan Shanglong smiled slightly and said, "Because there are too many companies involved and the scope is very extensive, we can expand the scope of negotiations and have professionals negotiate." Of course. We all have to show sufficient good faith in the negotiations. ”
Sullivan nodded and said, "What does Mr. Foreign Minister mean that we should cooperate first and negotiate later?" ”
Yan Shanglong smiled and said nothing, did Sullivan have any other choice?
This is true, and the US Secretary of State has no other choice.
