A secluded private residential estate near the outskirts of New Delhi, the capital of India. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is waiting here for a distinguished guest to arrive. A few minutes later, Defense Minister A.K. Anthony walked into the house.

"Lord Anthony, you're here." Prime Minister Manmohan Singh stood up to greet him. Although he is the person with the highest power in India, this is only in the legal sense. In the eyes of the major factional forces in the army, Anthony is the one who holds the highest power in India. To this end, the government's annual allocation of defense funds to the military has increased again and again to meet their proposed procurement of military equipment of a "threatening" nature.

"Hello, Lord Singh, what is the matter with me?" A.K. Anthony asked.

Anthony is a hardliner in India who supports the strengthening of the army and the priority of arming and strengthening the air force. Under his influence, over the past few years, the Indian Air Force has successively purchased weapons and equipment such as advanced trainer aircraft, anti-aircraft missiles, reconnaissance aircraft, and third-generation fighters. And an agreement was signed with Russia to jointly develop a fifth-generation fighter and a multi-role transport aircraft with stealth functions.

"Your Excellency Anthony, you should be quite clear about the actual situation in the country now, the ports and other infrastructure facilities in the coastal states have been seriously damaged, the three industrial states of Mumbai, Kolkata and Ahmedabad have all been damaged to varying degrees due to the tsunami, and Bangalore has disappeared most of them due to the direct hit of meteor fragments, so it can be said that the entire Indian economy has been hit semi-devastatingly." Singh said in a deep voice.

"I know that for this reason I have ordered the Army, Navy and Air Force transport aircraft units to devote themselves to disaster relief operations in various places. However, due to problems such as damaged roads, insufficient material reserves and shortage of medical personnel, disaster relief activities in a small number of remote areas have not been carried out smoothly. Anthony felt that Singh might be complaining to himself this time, hoping that he would send more troops, so he revealed between the lines that he had sent most of the combat power and troops that he could send.

"What I want to say is that there is a kind of desperation in the country right now, and a small number of hostile elements are spreading relevant rhetoric in the disaster area, such as **, the army**, etc., if left unchecked, it is likely to cause a chain reaction."

"What do you mean?" Anthony furrowed an eyebrow.

"I think India needs a 'victory' to boost domestic morale."

"Victory?" When Anthony heard the word, he couldn't help but sit up straight, straighten his back from the sofa, put his hands on his knees, looked at Singer with both eyes, and asked with bright pupils, "And whose victory?" Yan Huang or Pakistan? ”

Anthony had just visited the northeastern border province of Sikkim (commonly referred to as 'southern Tibet') in India's northeastern border province. He witnessed the Indian-Chinese border, which was surrounded by smooth roads and neat barracks on the Yanhuang side, while the Indian side was mostly rugged and muddy mountain roads. And Anthony, who chose a car to get to the border pass, endured several hours of bumpy roads on a rough road, which was definitely a memorable and unpleasant inspection experience. However, this also made Anthony deeply understand that from the perspective of the troops' logistical support capacity alone, the opening of the Yanhuang Qinghai-Tibet Railway and the condescending geographical and geomorphological advantages of several kilometers have enabled Yanhuang to achieve and have a great innate military strategic advantage before the start of the war. Therefore, for Yan Huang, Anthony only talked about threats and influences in the outside world, and in his heart he never conceived any plans and ideas for a real war between the two countries, even if the idea of revenge war that had existed in the army since the defeat of India in 1962.

"Of course it's not with Yanhuang, unless we are prepared for a full-scale national war, or with the Stars and Stripes to officially declare war on Yanhuang and completely destroy its air force, it is impossible for India to start a war against Yanhuang alone." Singh replied, shaking his head with a blue Indian hood.

"Then all that's left is Pakistan." Anthony stroked his cleanly shaved chin with his right hand and continued. Due to the conscious propaganda and public opinion guidance of the Indian government, the only countries that can arouse the "hatred value" and resonance of the Indian people are the Yellow Republic and Pakistan. As for the likes of Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, Indians treat them as if they were treating Vietnam and the Philippines.

"Last year's Leonid meteor storm, Pakistan had the help of the Yanhuang 'Coiling Dragon Defense System' particle cannon, and its coastal area is at the end of the Indian Ocean, so whether it is inland or coastal areas, Pakistan has not suffered any losses, compared with our huge losses. Therefore, if our air force can win an air battle against some parts of Pakistan, I believe that it will have a very good effect on boosting the morale of the people in the country and restoring the confidence of the people after the disaster. ”

"The Air Force is not a consumable, and they cannot be sacrificed in vain, and the troops that have been built at great cost are wasted in a war of attrition that has no military significance." Hearing that he had launched a campaign, lost his troops, and weakened his subordinates in any way that did not do him and his army any good, Anthony immediately shook his head.

"I feel that the natural disaster and tsunami have exposed the problems of the lack of helicopters in our army, the lack of transport aircraft in the air force, and the shortage of logistics support ships in the navy. In order to keep his premiership, which has gradually become precarious due to public opinion attacks launched by the opposition parties, Singh showed his first offer.

"After the air war, the war-damaged aircraft also need to be replenished accordingly, and the defense budget will be increased by another 15% this year." After thinking for more than ten seconds, Anthony said his conditions.

"5%, this is the maximum percentage I am sure of, this year's economic downturn, tax reduction is inevitable, I need to balance the requirements and opinions of all parties in the country."

"10%, that's the bottom line!"

When Singh heard Anthony's offer, he saw the other party's unyielding eyes, gritted his teeth and replied: "Okay, but I need a hearty victory!" ”

"As you wish, Your Excellency the Prime Minister!" Fulfilled his requirements, Anthony smiled contentedly.

The next day, the sparse gunfire of the fighting began to resound in the Kashmiri border area, and the Indian army began to find excuses and warm up public opinion for the air battle that would soon follow.

Yanhuang Continent, Jinhai City.

"You say India and Pakistan will reignite the flames?" After Wang Fan heard Yadi's narration, he asked in surprise.

"Yes, judging from my preset monitoring programs on the Internet and various military equipment around the world, India is very likely to take the initiative to provoke a local war in order to divert domestic contradictions."

"Kashmir?"

"80% estimated to be there. Since India and Pakistan are both nuclear powers, it is unlikely that there will be another large-scale ground invasion war of the nature of national destruction. ”

"Yadi, help me pull up a map of India."

“ok!”

Soon, a high-magnification three-dimensional map of India appeared in front of Wang Fan's eyes.

"This is Kashmir." Wang Fan pointed to the northwest of India, thought for a while, and asked: "I remember that the domestic media reported that there is a 'Yanhuang State' in India, and where does that mean?" ”

"You're talking about 'Manipur', in the northeast of India. According to online information, it is a state desperate for independence, and it is also a state that has been blocked by the Indian government, even if Indians want to go there, they need to apply for a special permit first, and it is even more difficult for foreigners to go there. In addition, the people there worship the dragon totem and have a great hatred for India, and the local residents are mainly yellow-skinned, speak the Sino-Tibetan language, and look similar to the Yanhuang people, but far from the traditional Indians. In addition, it also has an armed force called P (everyone is familiar with it ^_^) against the Indian army, and their flag and military emblem are the six-star red flag and hexagonal military emblem. Moreover, the neighboring states of 'Nagaland', 'Sikkim', 'Meghalaya' and 'Bengal', 'Andhra Pradesh' and 'Tamil Nadu' in southern India, and 'Himachal Pradesh' in the northwest are all states with relatively strong independence tendencies. ”

Wang Fan couldn't help but squint his eyes when he looked at the map of the red state plate that almost surrounded the northwest, northeast, and southeast sides of India, connecting half a circle.

"So what's the biggest problem with their independence right now?"

"The main thing is the Indian army, and the Indian army, which is equipped with millions of main battle tanks and a large number of armored vehicles, is not just a guard of honor."

"So if the threat of the army disappears on a large scale, and these states suddenly have enough weapons," Wang Fan smacked his mouth.

"Then the result will be very interesting" Yadi, who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, followed the good temptation.

At the same time, Pakistan.

Since Pakistan and India have fought three wars with real swords, and the possibility of another national war breaking out in the future is not impossible, the Pakistani troops are very strict in their preparations for actual combat. In the third Indo-Pakistani war, if it were not for the heroic performance of the Pakistan Air Force at a critical moment, Pakistan would have been in danger of "losing the country" in history. Therefore, after the end of the Third Indo-Pakistani War, the Pakistani military leadership, which knew that its comprehensive national strength and army strength were far behind India's, unanimously decided to build and arm its air force with a heavy investment and implement asymmetric warfare.

In addition, due to the 7:45 attack of the Israeli Air Force that shocked the world during the Third Middle East War: it made the Egyptian Air Force, which was built according to the Soviet-style model at that time (all the fighters were stacked in a row, or parked in a mound of bunkers), was completely annihilated by the Israeli Air Force in only 20 minutes, and nearly 400 combat aircraft of various types were completely annihilated. Therefore, since then, all countries in the world have chosen the construction mode of air bases with the construction of fortified fortress hangars and multi-runways. Therefore, in Pakistan, most air bases have built fortified bunkers, and even the old J-7P fighters made by Yan Huang can enjoy the best bunker parking treatment.

The Sagoda Air Base of the Pakistani Air Force, located 592 kilometers from New Delhi, India, has 3 runways, at least 6 bunker groups, and is equipped with advanced F-16A/B fighters of the 38th Wing, the 9th and 11th Squadrons and a large number of J-7 squadrons.

Jacob Abad Base, with two runways, 7 bunker groups (the reason why the number of bunkers exceeds the actual need is that India cannot tell which fort is actually stationed with fighters), which is equipped with 18 of the country's most elite F-16 Block 52 fighters.

Peshawar Air Base, home to Thunderbolt fighters, is home to the 36th Tactical Assault Wing, but due to lack of funds, there is only one runway here for the time being, but the corresponding fortified bunker group has not cut corners or cut corners.

Kamla Airport, Pakistan.

Kamla Airport is not a real air base in Pakistan. It is only 62 kilometers from Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, and has a runway, but the bunkers are very scattered. The newly imported Thunderbolt fighter from Yanhuang, namely the JF-17 (Thunder), is produced and assembled here.

Because some time ago, a Thunder Dragon fighter plane crashed and crashed during training in Pakistan (a real incident, not a fabrication, there is news on the Internet), so the Yanhuang government specially sent a technical expert inspection team led by Deputy Chief Engineer Ding, with the assistance of Wang Zonghuai and several other pilots, to Kamla to investigate the cause. At this time, a test flight scheduled for the purpose of investigation is underway.

"The meteorological team reported that the Kamla Meteorological Center reported that it would be cloudy from now until 2 p.m., with a southeast wind of three levels, no air turbulence, and it could take off." The tower chief's voice came from the tower. In order to find out the reason, according to the black box data record of the plane involved in the accident, Wang Yan and Huang Zonghuai, the special pilots, will repeat the flight trajectory of the Pakistani pilot at that time, but just in case, the ejection seat and other safety facilities have been checked several times to confirm that they can be ejected at any time.

"The station reports that the runway has been cleared and agrees to take off!"

"The radar system is working normally, the airspace of the test flight has been reconfirmed, there are no obstacles and other aircraft, everything is normal."

Wang Zonghuai had already put on his flight helmet at this time, sat in the cockpit of the Thunder Dragon fighter, buckled up his breathing mask, fastened his seat belt, and slowly closed the cockpit of the fighter under his operation.

Thanks to Yanhuang's continuous progress in national defense technology, the cockpit display is not much inferior to the world's advanced fighters: the head-up display can not only provide basic flight information, but also provide interception information, target information and other information required in the final attack stage. The multi-function display next to it displays information such as weapon management system, fire control radar, map, electronic warfare, horizon guide, horizontal position indicator, warning test, automatic checklist, etc., of course, such as airspeed, Mach number, barometric altitude, magnetic heading, pitch and roll information, overload, turning rate, side slip, angle of attack, vertical speed and trim amount.

As the ground crew made an OK gesture, Wang Zonghuai waved his arm lightly and controlled the plane, only to hear a sharp whistling from the tail nozzle, and the air wave ripples visible to the naked eye appeared and disturbed the line of sight, and the Thunder Dragon fighter began to slowly drive towards the starting point of the runway, and at the same time began to gradually accelerate, and then left the ground in the roar and rushed into the sky.

"Off the runway, the body is normal!" The moment the plane left the ground, Wang Zonghuai reported through the communicator in a calm tone.
