Kuah Harbor resembles a crescent moon and a half-bow, and although it has been navigated, many subsequent infrastructure projects have not yet been completed.

When Xu Fei and the others arrived at Guagang, what they saw was almost a super large construction site.

There are four tall tower cranes in the ship repair dock in District 3, the weather station in District 5, and the business and living area in District 6, where workers are busy and countless vehicles are shuttling among them.

Some of the commercial office buildings have been put into use, and most of the ones under construction have been capped, and the decoration of the exterior walls is being carried out.

The container area in the fourth area is already densely packed with containers, which indirectly shows how busy the port is.

There are many ships of various sizes moored in the harbor, and several frigates are still conspicuous around it, but there is a deep-water pier that is empty around it.

On several main roads, you can see the patrol cars of the Ba ** side passing by from time to time.

Manager Tu Anwen welcomed Xu Fei and them very much, and his attitude was very cordial, and after introducing the situation, he personally took them around the port.

According to him, the port of Kuah is more than 400 kilometers from Karachi in the east and 120 kilometers from the Pakistan-Iraqi border in the west. The deep-water port is the third major port in Brazil and plays an important role in promoting the economic development of the Brazilian region and the northern region.

The first phase of the project includes a multi-purpose wharf with 3 berths and a 25,000-ton container ship for 30,000 tons of bulk carriers, with a total length of 4.35 kilometers. In addition, the project also includes civil engineering, power supply, water supply, fire protection, environmental protection, communications, navigation, loading and unloading, computer-aided management and control and other supporting projects, with a total project cost of 248 million US dollars, of which 198 million US dollars were assisted by the Chinese side, which was financed by grants, interest-free loans, preferential loans and buyer's credit, mainly for port infrastructure construction.

The second phase is more ambitious than the first, but it is not yet complete, and it is planned to build 10 ship berths, including three container terminals. In addition, two ports of berth for tankers and a refinery connected to the berthing and underground pipelines will be built, with a total investment of $524 million.

At present, there are more than 3,000 engineering and technical personnel at all levels, including operation management, nearly half of whom are from China, and more than 1,500 people have been recruited locally.

The strategic position of Kuah Port is extremely important, but in reality it is not safe here. In November last year, about 50 kilometers northeast of Kuah City, in the north of the Larazar region, the exploration team of a Chinese-funded enterprise was attacked by eight armed members of the Baloch Liberation Army, two Pakistani security personnel were shot dead on the spot, and a pickup truck was hijacked.

In May this year, on the same day as the opening of a high-end summit, terrorists of unknown origin carried out a terrorist attack near Kuah Harbour, and the terrorists shot unarmed and defenseless construction workers, resulting in 10 deaths and 2 injuries!

The security environment of Pakistan as a whole is also deteriorating, with occasional frictions with neighboring countries, direct exchanges of fire on the border of Pakistan, and recent wars in the Kamir region. The country is even more unbearable, the most recently, Pakistan in a week in a row of 6 terrorist attacks, the largest of which was caused by suicide bombings, resulting in 100 deaths, more than 300 injuries, these 6 terrorist attacks, there are also direct attacks against the Pakistani military, resulting in the death of 3 soldiers!

Fortunately, Pakistan attaches great importance to the security of Kuah Harbor, and the 9th Division stationed in the port has strengthened its patrol force from one company to one battalion, and the two companies have taken turns to send forces to patrol. So far, Kuah Port is in a very safe situation.

And the empty deep-water wharf was deliberately emptied after they received the notice to ensure that only one oil tanker was docked on the wharf in the past few days!

Later, Xu Fei and Tu Anwen separated and arranged for others to familiarize themselves with the situation in the port, and he took Qiao Ya He Wen to visit Shahazadeh in the 9th Division.

In the barracks near Kuah City, Xu Fei and the others met Shahazadeh, who was a bearded officer with a black face, a hearty smile, and fluent in Chinese. Xu Fei's worries were unnecessary.

The two sides sat down opposite each other, and Shahazadeh was the first to laugh:

"Your country specially sent you, it seems that you don't believe us!"

Xu Fei smiled: "Brother Sha said he was joking!" We're the hardest buddies, it's definitely okay to have you here, we're just here just in case! ”

Brother Sha? Shahazadeh was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with a smile:

"This is an interesting name, I almost thought I was a Chinese!"

Everyone laughed.

Shahazadeh continued: "But you have come at the right time, recently we have received an order from our superiors that some troops will be transferred to ......"

"Defensive?" Xu Fei was stunned for a moment, and secretly said no!

"Yes!" Shahazadeh nodded, "Recently, the Kamir region has not been peaceful, India has confused black and white, and sent military planes to bomb our territory without authorization, and the superiors are worried that there will be a big armed conflict there, the 17th Division of the 1st Army of the Punjab, the 14th Division of the 2nd Army, and the 62nd Brigade of the Northern Region have all rushed to the aid of the Kamir Military Region, and we will immediately move north to fill the defensive vacuum in Punjab." ”

Xu Fei already knew something before he came. The Pakistani Army is divided into three types: Strike Army, Defensive Army, and Mixed Army. Every two to three corps is organized into a local command, and the corps has divisions under its jurisdiction. The Pakistani army has a total of 13 corps, including infantry, armor, artillery and anti-tank units. However, the Pakistani army's air defense forces are organized separately as army air defense divisions, which are grouped under the strategic command together with the army's strategic forces.

"What about Guagang?" He asked.

"For the time being, the nearest 33rd Division will take care of this side, and they have a mountain infantry brigade that will take over our mission. However, it may take a few days to arrive. ”

"A few days! So when are you leaving? Joya was also anxious and interjected.

"That's right! Rest assured! We'll wait until they come over before leaving! If nothing else! Shahzadeh said, but his last sentence showed that he didn't expect much from that possibility.

Seeing the three of them looking at each other, he smiled: "Don't worry too much! Even if we receive an order to start first, we will leave you with enough men to leave after the handover with the 33rd Division. There will be no large-scale armed forces here, at most sporadic terrorists, there won't be much of a problem! ”

These words made Xu Fei relax a little.

"This ...... You're saying you're going to move, but the order hasn't been given yet, is it? Joya asked, with some truth in that. Xu Fei has never studied conducting, but he is a top student of three first-class military academies, if he can't hear this little bit of extraneous sound, then he will be in vain.

Sure enough, Shahazadeh nodded: "Yes!" The higher authorities had previously issued an order to move the defense, and later added an order, which is pending for the time being. What we have learned is that there is now a dispute within the Strategic Command, mainly over the strategic judgement of the Kamir region.

The radicals advocate striking first, while the conservatives advocate a pause and do not send the wrong signal. But no matter which one it is, now that the troops in Punjab have been mobilized, they need to be filled, and we can only wait for orders if we need to go or not! ”

"Oh." Xu Fei and Qiao Ya glanced at each other, blaming Daoba for being so uncalm, and he didn't have a unified good opinion internally, who was to blame?

The higher-ups sent 506 over, apparently also with this problem in mind?

Xu Fei asked, "Can you understand your division's defense?" ”

That's the main purpose of his visit today.

In order to be targeted, it is necessary to first understand the weak direction of the opponent's defense.

"No problem! Come on! Follow me! Shahzadeh got up, led them to the war room, and laid a defense map in front of them.

The strength of the 9th Division was generally deployed in a circular shape around the crescent moon in Kua Harbor, and it was only stationed in the junction of several troops, with independent battalions stationed. And sent a special force to be responsible for patrolling the port of Kuah.

If the 9th Division does not move its defense, this defense will be completely fine. Even if the 9th Division moves and the 33rd Division comes over, there will be no problem with this deployment.

The problem is that if the 9th Division moves its defense at this juncture, and the 33rd Division's Mountain Infantry Brigade is not in place in time, there will be a huge defensive vacuum!

Judging from the level of Pakistan's intelligence work, this is clearly a piece of meat on the board and allowed to be slaughtered! I want to talk about "Bringing a System to Be a Soldier" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find a confidant~
