Chapter 961: The End is the Beginning (Part I)
Not long after Lu Jiadong arrived in Islamabad, Butin also arrived in Pakistan, and the two immediately talked secretly with the Pakistani president for three days, as for the specific content no one knows, but on the day of the end of the secret talks between the three people, Pakistan, which received equipment assistance from the Chinese side, formed the Fifth Mountain Brigade on the Kashmir front.

Two days later, the 5th Mountain Brigade, equipped with Chinese-made Type 78 assault rifles, Type 82 mortars, Type 86 portable rocket launchers, Type 85 light grenade launchers, Type 88 light tanks, and Type 89 light 122mm howitzers, launched a counteroffensive against the invading Indian army, supported by more than 20 Soviet Mi-17 helicopters.
Benefiting from the characteristics of China's equipment that are consistently lightweight, convenient, and ferocious, Pakistan's Fifth Mountain Brigade adopted a close-combat approach, which not only neutralized the Indian army's aviation superiority, but also inflicted great casualties on the Indian infantry whose firepower was obviously weaker than its own, and then more than 20 Mi-17 mounted more than 20 Type 89 light 122mm howitzers to quickly seize both sides of the Indian army's bottom of the X valley, and the reason was that the ferocious fire blocked the valley passage, and the 234th Mountain Regiment of the Indian Third Mountain Brigade, which was too late to retreat in the future, was annihilated in one fell swoop.
Pakistan's defeat in Kashmir shocked the whole country, and the hard-line Indian government was not unwilling to be defeated, on the one hand, it strengthened the Third Front deployed on the western border, and on the other hand, continued to increase troops in Kashmir, preparing to regain the lost ground.
However, just when India had just transferred two elite mountain brigades to Kashmir, China suddenly held a large-scale live-fire confrontation exercise on the plateau, and India did not have a few modern mountain troops in its hands, and most of them were deployed on the Sino-Indian border.
As long as anyone who is blind can see that China's exercises can become a military operation against India with a slight change of direction, the shadow of the Sino-Indian self-defense counterattack in 1962 has not been erased by India to this day, so after seeing the reaction of the Chinese army, India had to redeploy the mountain troops transferred to Kashmir back to the Sino-Indian border.
As a result, India and Pakistan have re-entered a state of confrontation in Kashmir, and India can no longer sit still, because at the moment of international turmoil, India is also turbulent, and the reason why the current Indian government is tough is that it has the consideration of diverting domestic contradictions through foreign military action.
It is precisely for this reason that a quick victory is most beneficial to the Indian Government, but now that the two countries are caught in a confrontation, the Indian Government is suddenly caught in a dilemma, and in desperation it can only suppress the opposition forces at home on the one hand, and ask for help from the major military powers of the West on the other, but how can the weapons and equipment of the West be so easy to obtain? As a result, India is waiting to jump into one deep pit after another, and the conditions are harsher and more severe than the other, making India miserable.
Pakistan, on the other hand, is more satisfied with this state of confrontation, although it is a big burden on the national strength, but it gives Pakistan valuable time, and this is exactly what Lu Jiadong wants, so after the situation in South Asia eased slightly, Lu Jiadong rushed to the stormy Soviet Union.......
"Lu, you know the conditions of the Americans, money, status, honor, everything, they will blink their eyelids........."
On the outskirts of Moscow, in a simple and spacious country house, the roaring fire illuminated half of the house, which also reflected Butin's pale face, took a slight sip of the vodka in his hand, and then looked at Lu Jiadong opposite with a playful expression:
"But you, except for sanitary napkins, dogskin hats, and hot water bottles, which are electronic imitations of poor quality, I admit that the Soviet people need these very much now, but the problem is that what you want is not proportional to what you pay, you must know that your appetite is not smaller than that of the West. ”
You must know that during this trip to the Soviet Union, the Chinese side was divided into two routes, with Liu Haotian as the core official delegation taking the Jian-8II improvement project as the starting point and coveting the Soviet Union's advanced aviation manufacturing technology; while the "non-governmental personages" mainly Luo Haoluo and the fat man Luo Haoluo roamed the Baltic Sea and Ukraine and actively sought the introduction of naval platforms and related advanced technologies.
Naturally, the actions of the Chinese side could not be concealed from the eyes of the Soviets, but first, the situation in the Soviet Union was turbulent, and when there was only one breath left, it was obviously more important to survive; second, during the honeymoon period of the fifties, the two countries still formed a good friendship, especially the older generation of technicians, many of whom had a teacher-student friendship with Soviet experts, and their feelings were more acceptable.
Because of this, the two teams led by Liu Haotian and Luo Hao made very smooth progress in the Soviet Union, and after a rush for talent, technology, and platform, they all gained a lot, but in this way, it aroused the vigilance of the West, so it exerted strong pressure on the pro-Western forces, hoping to force China to launch this gluttonous feast of the collapse of the Soviet Union.
And those pro-Western forces that had already dismantled the Soviet Union to pieces naturally obeyed their master's orders, and without saying a word, they directly cut off China's access to technology, and this also led to the interruption of the J-8II improvement project in cooperation with the MiG company, and one Hyundai-class missile destroyer and two Kryvak-class missile frigate platforms were stranded at the Baltic Shipyard.
As for the transfer of nuclear submarine technology, the introduction of finished strategic bombers, and the purchase of aircraft carrier materials at the Black Sea Shipyard, which have just been eyebrow-raising, they have been postponed indefinitely, and seeing that China's introduction project is about to be suspended, Lu Jiadong immediately found his old friend Bujing, so after Bujing said this, Lu Jiadong smiled slightly:
"The life of the aristocracy may not be for everyone, but what the general public wants may be the ambition of some people, but I don't know, Mr. Bugin, do you belong to that category?"
Bujing shrugged his shoulders with a smile: "My old friend, don't I look like a nobleman?"
Lu Jiadong smiled and shook his head: "You are not a nobleman at all, but a tough guy who is like a fake!"
"Hahaha~~~~"
Bu Jing laughed out loud when he heard this, and immediately stretched out his hand and patted Lu Jiadong's shoulder, and sighed: "I didn't expect that the person who really understands me is actually you!"
Except for me, there is no second person in this world who knows what kind of person you Bujing is in your bones, Lu Jiadong is shouting in his heart, but his face remains unchanged at all:
"I was aware of it when you were in Iraq, but this trip to the Soviet Union was more confirmed. ”
Bu Jing was not surprised by Lu Jiadong's words, because Lu Jiadong had shocked him too much during this period of time, so he didn't doubt it at all, but took a sip of the vodka from the wine glass, and immediately asked directly:
"How can you help me?"
"Become the future president of Russia!"
"How sure?"
"More than seventy!"
"You're not lying to me?"
"I vouch for my life!"
Lu Jiadong said categorically, and said in his heart, even if your buddy doesn't do anything, you will become the future president of Russia, and you will do it for 20 years.
How did Bujing know Lu Jiadong's true thoughts, seeing Lu Jiadong make such a promise, his heart was already happy, you must know that Lu Jiadong rarely guarantees anything in front of outsiders, and once he makes any promise, he will definitely complete it, no matter what the price is.
Messi in the Falklands Naval Battle and Muhammad in the Gulf War are all like this, so Bujing believes that Lu Jiadong will definitely help him do it since he has said this, and this is exactly what he wants, because of this, the smile on Bujing's face finally changed from professional coping to sincerity from the heart, and nodded:
"In that case, then I promise you to activate the relationship on my side and help you fight against those damn Russian traitors, but you also know that we are evenly matched with them, and in the end, no one may be able to help anyone, and at that time, it will be you behind-the-scenes promoters to play a head-on game!"
"As long as you make a stalemate, as for the other party's behind-the-scenes, I will deal with it personally. Lu Jiadong didn't drag his feet and nodded directly, but Bujing was a little worried:
"I've heard that he is very difficult to get along with. ”
Lu Jiadong smiled and nodded: "No way, who made the tide rise now." ”
"You know?"
Lu Jiadong silently looked at the sunset outside the window, and sighed meaningfully: "It's an old friend........
.........
"If I were you, I wouldn't be here again, and to be honest, Lou, I really don't want our friendship to end like this......."
Two months later, when the Soviet red flag with a sickle and hammer fell from the top of the Kremlin tower, and everyone in the world was shocked, in a Swiss resort, Blomberg looked at Lu Jiadong, who was also calm and usual, on the other side:
"It has been clearly written in my letter, I will never agree to your conditions, listen to my advice, my dear Lu, don't get mixed up in China's military industrial system, come out and see, the world has become the master of the West, the Soviet Union has been like this, what can China do? Dear Lu, I really don't want your talent to be tied to a ship that is doomed to sink, even if it seems that the ship is still relatively big now!"
"But I still hope that you will seriously consider my conditions, not for anything else, but for the friendship between us over the years!" Lu Jiadong acted as if he hadn't heard Blomberg speak, and directly filtered out those rhetoric and jokes about China's collapse, if China could follow the collapse of the Soviet Union, then how could he, a military industry expert who had crossed over, deal with himself? Therefore, Lu Jiadong automatically filtered out Blomberg's words as nonsense, and went straight to the main body without any delay.........
