Chapter 410 Achieved
Bangladesh, the Federal Republic of Salween, Thailand, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar has been seeking opportunities to join the G7 since the establishment of the G7 Alliance. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Unwilling to get involved in the Indo-Burmese war, the G-7 alliance has always refused to accept Burma's accession under the pretext of political turmoil in Myanmar.
In April 1996, the Seven-Nation Alliance's $500 million worth of military supplies in support of Burma departed from Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, and when they arrived in Burma's territorial waters, they were suddenly seized by the Indian Navy. At the same time, the Indian Navy announced a complete blockade of Myanmar's territorial waters and a ban on the passage of any ships.
In the face of the overwhelming Indian Navy, the Burmese Navy did not dare to attack, but only cowered in the military port and allowed the Indian Navy to show off its might in its territorial waters.
The Burmese Navy chose to back down, but the Seven-Nation Alliance could not tolerate it.
The current Indian Navy is still in its infancy.
One aircraft carrier -- the USS Virat, eight conventionally powered submarines, five frigates, two destroyers, two combat support ships, and a handful of missile boats, patrol boats, minesweepers, landing craft, and other combat vessels. These are the entire foundation of the Indian Navy.
Excluding the aircraft carrier Virat, the Thai Navy and the Indonesian Navy are superior to the Indian Navy. Even the USS Verat aircraft carrier is only a light aircraft carrier carrying twelve Sea Harrier fighters and seven MK-42 anti-submarine helicopters, and its combat power in coastal operations is really average.
The Indian Navy's confiscation of all military supplies, including transport ships, was like a slap in the face of the Seven-Nation Alliance. What the Indian Navy itself did not expect was that its move would provoke a fierce reaction from the Seven-Nation Alliance.
On 10 April, under the leadership of the Salween Federal Republic, Thailand, and Indonesia, the Seven-Nation Alliance passed a resolution to form a joint fleet to sail into Burma's territorial waters to help Burma drive the Indian Navy out of Burma's territorial waters.
What is not known is that the Seven-Nation Alliance passed a secret resolution at the same time. As soon as the combined fleet exchanges fire with the Indian Navy, it will immediately send troops to occupy the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, an overseas joint territory of the Indian Federation, as a forward position against the Indian Navy, and prevent the Indian Navy from harassing the coastal areas of the Salween Federal Republic, Thailand, and Indonesia after breaking through the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, thus threatening the coastal defense security of the three countries.
The Andaman and Nicobar Islands are part of the Overseas Territories of the Union of India, the Andaman Islands, the Straits of the Ten Degrees and the Nicobar Islands, located between the Bay of Bengal and the Sea of Myanmar, south of Myanmar and 800 kilometers from the Indian mainland.
As a federal state with sharp internal contradictions, the Indian government has focused its attention on the mainland since independence, and even the navy is still in its infancy, not to mention an overseas territory such as the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
The Andaman and Nicobar Islands are barren except for the capital city of Port Blair, where 30,000 people live. Out of a total population of 180,000, only 20,000 are Indians, and the rest are indigenous to the region.
To tell the truth, for the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, whether it is Thailand, Indonesia, or even Myanmar before, it is salivating. It's just that the three countries had no excuse to get involved before. Now, India's brazen invasion of Myanmar has been spurned by the international community, and it has taken the initiative to provoke trouble and withhold military supplies from the G7 alliance to support Myanmar.
Under the impetus of Long Zheng, the three countries of the Federal Republic of Salween, Thailand, and Indonesia secretly formed a second combined fleet, and each assembled a landing combat force of 20,000 men.
In the event of an abrupt change in the tide of war, the Second Combined Fleet immediately took control of the waters off the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and three landing combat units belonging to the three countries immediately landed in one of the areas.
According to the distribution plan, Thailand will occupy the entire territory of the Andaman Islands, except for the lesser Andaman Island; Indonesia occupies the entire territory of the Nicobar Islands except for the island of Kar Nicobar; The Salween Federal Republic occupies the island of Little Andaman and the island of Carnicobar.
There is no doubt that according to this distribution scheme, Thailand is the most profitable, and Port Blair, the capital of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, is within the territory occupied by Thailand, and Thailand thus has a fulcrum and safe passage into the Indian Ocean; Indonesia's control area continues to extend to the north, in addition to the increase in territorial waters and territorial waters, Indonesia's control over the Strait of Malacca has become more tight.
The Federal Republic of Salween has only acquired two small islands, which on the surface it is the least profitable, but it is in its own interests.
------
Little Andaman Island is the fourth largest island in the Andaman Islands and its southernmost island in the north of the 10th Strait of the Myanmar Sea, with a length of 43.1 kilometers, a width of 23.7 kilometers, an area of 734.39 square kilometers, and the highest point is 183 meters above sea level. The southern tip of the archipelago is a low-lying area with tropical rainforests and several rare species of sea turtles. It has a population of about 10,000 and lives mainly in a dozen villages along the coast. Little Andaman Island has a deep-water port.
Karnicobar Island is the northernmost tip of the Nicobar Islands in the Indian Ocean, with a length of 15.9 kilometers, a width of 13.1 kilometers, an area of 126.91 square kilometers, and the highest point is 60 meters above sea level. It has a tropical climate with an annual rainfall of 400 mm. Carnicobar Island has more than a dozen villages with a population of about 20,000.
Between the island of Little Andaman and the island of Carnicobar is the famous Strait of the Ten Degrees.
The Tenth Degree Strait is about 125 kilometers wide from north to south, and 730 meters deep at its deepest point. To the north is the small island of Andaman in the Andaman Islands.
To the south is the island of Kar Nicobar in the Nicobar Islands, with the Burma Sea in the east and the Bay of Bengal in the west.

As a Chinese, Long Zheng has learned the lesson of Huaguo's tight blockade by the first and second island chains, and has been seeking a safe passage from the Federal Republic of Wenzhou to the Indian Ocean in the west.
With control of the Little Andaman Island, Karnicobar Island, and the Tenth Degree Strait, the Federal Republic of Salween has its own safe access to the sea.
For the sake of this passage, Long Zheng seized the opportunity to single-handedly promote the establishment of the Second Combined Fleet and the three landing combat forces, and led the achievement of this distribution plan. (To be continued.) )
