Chapter 272: Undeclared War
They had an unstable night.
The Pakistani army is seriously short of heavy weapons, they only have a small number of mountain artillery, some mortars, more than a dozen tanks and more than 20 armored vehicles, and as for large-caliber artillery, there is none.
However, being able to transfer the soldiers defending the positions on the eastern front to the western front also raised Gilgit's defensive strength to a higher level as a whole, after all, the pressure and feelings of fighting on two fronts and fighting on one front are completely different.
But Gilgit was still under Ah San's fire, and there was no way to fight back.
Gilgit was crowded, but the refugees whose homes had been destroyed by the war could not leave, because they were surrounded and confined to this small city, and now although the enemy forces on the Eastern Front had been completely annihilated, none of them left.
These people would rather continue to endure the threat of shelling than see how Ah San on the Western Front was defeated.
Modern warfare is about logistics, so insiders talk about internal service, and laymen talk about strategy.
Ah San's logistics are also problematic, their shells are not endless, Gilgit has been surrounded for a long time, and Ah San's shells are also very short, so they will only fire one shell every once in a while.
But although the shelling was not violent, the shells that didn't know where they would land and the explosions that suddenly sounded from time to time still made Gao Yuan nervous every time.
It was finally dawn.
Gao Yuan and the others will not participate in the negotiations, and the Pakistani side has already held urgent consultations with Ah San yesterday, and the two sides decided that at 10 o'clock this morning, the negotiators from and Shenzhou will enter Ah San's position together to negotiate.
Bucky hoped to negotiate between the two armies, but Ah San did not hesitate to reject the proposal, and after a night of negotiations last night, Bucky finally made concessions, and Yao Yi also agreed to enter Ah San's control area to negotiate.
When the time came, Bucky first sent a ten-man force over his own position, and arrived at Ah San's position, and after reconfirming that Ah San would not open fire, it was time for Yao Yi and Bucky's negotiators to set off.
Chen Wei will not go to the negotiations, as the representative of Shenzhou, Yao Yi and an interpreter, and a counselor, while the Baki side is also three people.
Gao Yuan wanted to send Yao Yi off, but Yao Yi and Chen Wei both refused his request.
Since he knew the importance of Gao Yuan and Xinghe, Yao Yi refused to let Gao Yuan leave the house that could prevent shelling, so Gao Yuan couldn't even watch Yao Yi leave.
The negotiations started at ten o'clock and ended at twelve o'clock, even if there was no result in the negotiations, then they had to wait for Yao Yi and them to come back before negotiating, in fact, this time Yao Yi only officially issued a threat of war, if he really wanted to negotiate, it was estimated that he would have to go to the second and third times.
It stands to reason that the negotiations ended at twelve o'clock, plus the time to return, Yao Yi should have come back at half past twelve, but it was twelve forty o'clock, and Yao Yi had not returned.
Gao Yuan began to be anxious, he wanted to ask Chen Wei, but Chen Wei was with Mahari, so he had no one to ask.
Just when Gao Yuan thought that Yao Yi might have had an accident, Wang Ning ran out of the medical room and said urgently to a few people who were still waiting anxiously: "Li Yang is awake!" ”
In any case, it is still great news that Li Yang woke up.
Gao Yuan immediately ran to the medical room where Li Yang was.
Li Yang had already opened his eyes, he looked at Gao Yuan, his lacklustre eyes blinked a few times, and then he still showed a relieved smile.
Li Yang wanted to open his mouth to speak, but the wound on his neck was touched, Wang Ning immediately said: "Stop talking, let you look at Gao Yuan, just know that we are all fine, well, come over and let him see, know that I am not lying to him." ”
Gao Yuan said loudly: "Brother Yang, we're all fine, we're all fine, very good!" ”
Yu Shunzhou poked his head out from behind and said, "If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing!" Brother Yang, you are so good! ”
Li Yang grinned with difficulty, and then Wang Ning said urgently: "Okay, okay, I've seen everything, let's go out and get out of here." ”
Gao Yuan and the others were pushed out of the medical room by Wang Ning, and after closing the door with his backhand, Wang Ning exhaled and said: "It's time to get through the most dangerous time, this fate is saved, he doesn't believe that you are all fine, I will let him see you, let him rest assured that it is very good for him, but ......"
Wang Ning lowered his voice, pulled Gao Yuan to the side, and said in a low voice: "We don't have many medicines, all of them are our own medicines, and there is a shortage of drugs in Bucky, not even normal saline, I can only use distilled water." ”
"Is it enough?"
"We have a lot of medicines, but we have to guard against various situations, so we can only bring a part of the medicines without a kind of medicine, and now the necessary medicine for Li Yang can last for four days, in his case, four days is far from the time to stop the medicine."
Gao Yuan exhaled and said, "Find out if there are any medicines seized from Ah San, and I'll think of a way." ”
Li Yang said helplessly: "I didn't expect Gilgit to not even have the most basic medicine, this is really ......"
"I have been besieged for three months, and there are seriously wounded every day, and I have already run out, and there are still four days left, and I want to figure out a way."
Doctors only save lives, and the search for medicine has to rely on others to find a way.
Gao Yuan began to feel that it was difficult to be a good steward of a squad.
At this moment, Chen Wei finally appeared with a look of urgency.
Looking at Chen Wei's face, Gao Yuan knew that something was wrong.
Walking directly in front of Gao Yuan, Chen Wei took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress his anger before he whispered: "Ambassador Yao was detained by Ah San!" ”
"What?"
The worst fears turned out to be true.
Chen Wei took a deep breath again, and then he gritted his back molars and said, "I didn't expect that Ah San could do such a thing, and now they are not crazy, but completely stupid X!" ”
Chen Wei burst into foul language, but thinking about how angry he is now, Gao Yuan said urgently: "What's the matter?" ”
"When our negotiators went, they brought a list of prisoners and video materials to prove that we had indeed captured all of Ah San's entire Eastern Front troops, but after Ah San saw our evidence and received the official diplomatic note from us, the negotiators first left the scene, and after more than an hour, Ah San's guards directly detained our negotiators."
Gao Yuan hurriedly said: "How did this news come out?" ”
"Ah San put back an interpreter and made a request, asking us to take all the captured Ah San officers in exchange for our negotiators."
Gao Yuan was dumbfounded, he knew that Ah San was wonderful, but he didn't expect Ah San to be so wonderful.
Chen Wei's face turned pale, and Pan Xin was stunned on the side and said: "This is, this is the ambassador representing Shenzhou!" Ah San is declaring war by doing this! ”
Chen Wei waved his hand angrily, but didn't say anything.
Ah San has done things, what else is there to say.
The two armies are at war, and they don't kill them, and the truth that was still understood in ancient times doesn't work here in Ah San.
Moreover, even if war is declared between the two countries, it will only expel each other's diplomats at most, even if it has become a pot of porridge on the battlefield, a slightly more normal country will not do anything to detain the other party's diplomats as hostages, let alone treat the other party's diplomats as hostages for the exchange of prisoners.
What's more, Yao Yi just issued an ultimatum, and this is not a declaration of war yet.
Gao Yuan was stunned for a long time, and then he finally said, "What should I do?" ”
Chen Wei shook his head and said: "I don't know, if we really have Shenzhou standing behind us, then Ah San's move is a formal declaration of war, no need to negotiate anymore, just start fighting, but now, but now we are not intimidating Ah San, and Bucky has no way to fight it." ”
Gao Yuan said with difficulty: "You can't really exchange hostages, right?" ”
Chen Wei shook his finger and said, "Impossible!" It's absolutely impossible! Also, Ah San in our hands is a prisoner, a prisoner who was shot down by your real knives and guns, and Ambassador Yao, he was shamelessly detained by Ah San as a hostage, so these are two different things at all, and Ah San's behavior is not a declaration of war at all, they are not declaring war, and it is the most despicable undeclared war. ”
Gao Yuan thought for a while and said, "Okay, then let's think about how to rescue Ambassador Yao." ”
Chen Wei looked at Gao Yuan and said, "Rescue? How to rescue? If you can't fight at all, you can't break through the enemy's defense line, and even if you break through the enemy's defense line, Ah San will have plenty of time to hurt or transfer Yao Da Envoy. ”
Gao Yuan thought for a while, looked at Pan Xin, and said, "Old Jian, what should I do in this situation?" ”
Pan Xin said without hesitation: "Immediately send someone to Ah San's place to stabilize them, pretend to agree to the exchange first, and delay the time, at least until the evening." ”
"You mean night action?"
"Yes, there is no chance during the day, and rescue operations can only be launched at night."
Pan Xin took a step forward and said, "Try to figure out where Yao Da and the envoys are being held, and after knowing the location, the rescue operation will be more convenient." ”
Chen Wei shook his head and said, "This is ...... Impossible, the enemy's troops on the Western Front are at least more than 10,000 people, how can you launch a rescue operation under the heavy encirclement of the enemy, even if you find Ambassador Yao, how can you bring him out, and ...... This is unrealistic, you can't even break through the enemy's defenses. ”
Chen Wei took a breath and said: "You created a great miracle yesterday, of course I know this, but yesterday it was the enemy who was defenseless, and now, the enemy on the Western Front is obviously prepared, this situation is different." ”
Gao Yuan was very confident and said very seriously: "Chief, what about miracles, if it can only happen once, it is a miracle, and if it can be done every time, it is not a miracle." ”
Pan Xin nodded sincerely, and then he said in a low voice: "Chief, we know what we are doing, so you can trust our captain." ”
Chen Wei looked at Gao Yuan, he frowned and said, "Of course I want to believe you, but, but this is too incredible." ”
Gao Yuan didn't need to boast, Li Jingang, who couldn't help it, said: "Chief, it's different, what ordinary people can't do, our captain can do it, some things that are miracles for normal people, that's the norm for our captain, you think, how did we kill it yesterday, it's just a copy again." ”
Chen Wei thought for a moment, and then he said in a deep voice: "Okay! Then I believe you! I'll go to Chief Mahari first and ask him to make arrangements, and I'll do as you say. ”
