Chapter 191: The Light of Kashmir
Watching the two leave, Mhammad's body relaxed.
"Mhammad, when we were working on the plan, we didn't plan to ask the Americans for laser-guided bombs, right?" Zia-ul-Haq asked Mhammad.
"Yes, I remembered it temporarily, there are so many good things in the Americans, we can only come out now." "The laser-guided bomb is not expensive, but it is very accurate, and it will be of great help to us to take the Kashmir Valley, and with this thing, we can get a few of them to go to the Eastern countries and copy them together, and now this opportunity, we don't want it, isn't that too sorry for the Indians," Mhammad said. β
Hearing Mhammad's words, Zia-ul-Haq also kept nodding: "Mhammad, although you are still young, you have rich combat experience, and you are also very perceptive, which helped us get rid of this crisis and turn the passive into the active, you work hard in our army, and in the future, the position of the chief of the general staff of the army will be yours." β
"Mr. President, the armed forces are the force of our country to maintain peace, and this force must be in your own hands." "I dare not hope for the position of Chief of the General Staff of the Army, as long as I can watch our army, step into New Delhi, and submit the Indians to our feet, then I am satisfied," said Mhammad. β
Just kidding, this shows that it is Zia-ul-Haq who has come to test his ambitions, how could Mhammad agree to sit in that position, it is like the chairman of the military commission of the eastern country, the chairman of the military commission and the president of the country, must be held by one person.
"The establishment of a no-fly zone requires a lot of preparation." "Mr. President, I'm going down now to prepare," Hammad said. β
Zia-Haq nodded, watching Mhammad leave, already having an idea in his heart. Although he is ruling the country, there are too many political enemies, and countless people want their own lives, and a country like Pakistan needs to be ruled by power. It must be a powerful person from the military to be the president, so that Pakistan can gradually become stronger, those big families, only think about peace, have no enterprising spirit, if one day, they are unfortunately killed, this Mhammad, is the right successor.
Have guts. It is Pakistan's luck to have a vision and know how to weigh all aspects of the form, such a person can appear in Pakistan.
As the newly appointed deputy chief of staff of the Air Force, Mhammad did not even have time to go to Chakrala, the Air Force General Headquarters near Islamabad, and went directly to the Sargoda Air Base in the west of the city of Lahore.
The city of Lahore is located almost on the border between India and Pakistan. Known as the Garden City, it is the cultural and artistic center of Pakistan. It has a history of more than 2,000 years. When Pakistan became independent, it became the capital of the richest province of Punjab, and its economy grew rapidly, making it the second largest city in Pakistan and an important industrial center. At the same time, the city between the Jerum and Chinab rivers is also the main seat of Pakistan's air force. Pakistan's Air Force Central Command Headquarters is located at the Sargoda Air Base in Lahore.
The 34th and 38th wings were included here.
The 34th Fighter Wing, including the 5th Air Defense/Reconnaissance Squadron, is mainly equipped with 20 French Mirage III fighters and the 18th Air Defense/Attack Squadron. Equipped with 24 Tomcat fighters, the 20th Air Defense/Attack Squadron, equipped with 24 Tomcat fighters, and the 83rd SAR/Liaison Squadron, equipped with the legal Skylark 3 helicopter.
The 38th Multipurpose Wing, including the 9th Air Defense/Attack Squadron, is primarily equipped with 20 U.S.-made F-16 fighters, including 12 F-16A and 8 F-16B, the 12th Air Defense/Attack Squadron, 20 U.S.-made A-7 attack aircraft, and the 82nd SAR/Liaison Squadron, equipped with Skylark 3 helicopters.
There are nearly 50 Tomcat fighters, 20 F-16 and 20 A-7 attack planes, and these nearly 100 fighters have more than half of Pakistan's elite air force, and besides, with dozens of Tomcat fighters and F-16 fighters owned by Peshawar Air Base, they can support air combat in the east at any time.
Fighting with a large number of second-generation aircraft of the Indians and seizing air supremacy, Mhammad has absolute confidence.
There are more than a dozen air bases of the Indians, large and small, but now there are three major ones in the vicinity of Kashmir that are in conflict with the establishment of a no-fly zone by their own side. Srinagar, Chandigarh, Adampur. There is also a small Amritsar airbase, with rudimentary facilities and old warplanes, which are hardly to be considered.
Srinagar, the capital of the Indian-controlled Kashmir Valley, is the core of Kashmir, and because it is at the forefront of the dispute between the two countries, India has arranged a large air base here, with several runways, many hangars, and next to this base, there is also an army base.
It can be said that the no-fly zone proposed by Mhammad is mainly aimed at this base. When the no-fly zone over Mhammad is implemented, the fighters of this base will take off as soon as possible to provoke.
The arrival of Mhammad was immediately greeted by the commander of the Sagoda airbase, Colonel Chudli.
Colonel Chudley, once in 65 years of air combat, piloted Sabre fighters to bomb Indian bases, bravely and fearlessly fought several Indian fighters, and finally formed three fighters, sacrificed two, and only he came back, for which he was awarded the Crescent Badge.
Now, in his forties, he is no longer fit to fight in the sky and has become the commander of this most important air base in Pakistan.
There are already wrinkles on his thin face, but in those eyes, he is still full of confidence and courage: "Report to the Chief of Staff, Sagoda Air Base, is fully ready for battle!" β
Even a year ago, Sagoda Air Base also relied on old J-6 fighters and Mirage 3 to support the faΓ§ade, and at most they were only carrying out territorial air defense tasks, and it was too difficult to take the initiative to attack.
And now, the main fighters in the base have already been updated, Tomcat fighters and F-16, these advanced American-made fighters, are their main force in air combat, at this time, even Chudley is in high spirits, Indians, come over if you look for death!
All the officers and men of the Air Force know that the Tomcat fighter was finally introduced by Brigadier General Mhammad to the United States under extremely difficult circumstances, and on the western border, the Tomcat fighter has already made great contributions, and they have long been eager to try it.
"Gather all the pilots, we need to have an operational meeting right away." "Mission Codename: Kashmir Light. β
"Yes." Chudley replied loudly.
Two flight wings, nearly 200 flight personnel, gathered in the conference room, they sat upright, looking at Lieutenant General Mhammad above.
Just a few days ago, Mhammad, who was still a brigadier general, was promoted to the rank of lieutenant general by the president, and the deputy chief of staff of the Air Force, with full authority to command the air raid.
How can you not like Mhammad! The advanced Tomcat fighter was brought by Mhammad! The bomb truck A-7 was also brought in! Especially the pilots who flew the Tomcat fighters, they couldn't wait to go up immediately and kiss Hammad fiercely.
"We are facing a shameless provocation by the Indians this time." "They took advantage of the growing conflict with the Soviets on the Western Front, wantonly provoked a war on the Eastern Front, and now, having captured more than twenty of our posts, our army brothers, are bleeding at this time," Mhammad said. β
Mhammad's voice resounded throughout the audience: "Now, we have to use our actions to say no to the Indians!" Kashmir is our airspace! We will set up a no-fly zone over Kashmir, and anyone who dares to fly over Kashmir will be shot down by us mercilessly! This operation is called Kashmir Light! β
No Fly Zone! Shoot down all the planes of the Indians! Hearing this, all of a sudden, everyone's eyes showed joy, they were not afraid of the Indian fighters in the past, and they were not afraid of the Indian fighters at all, but now, with the powerful Tomcat fighters and F-16 fighters, they can win more easily.
A profound lesson for the Indians!

"Indians shouldn't be messing around at this time." A man with a big face, took a puff on his cigar and said coldly.
Here, on the other side of the world, on a peaceful continent, in a white building, the man who spoke was Reagan.
"Your Excellency, should we support the construction of a no-fly zone proposed by Pakistan?" Secretary of State George asked: "And the laser-guided bombs that were presented to us, our ambassador in Pakistan, cut the number in half, talking about five hundred. β
"Five hundred, do Pakistanis think we are rich people?" Secretary of Defense Weinberg was almost half angry and half smiling, the United States has only a few thousand such bombs in stockpile, and now it needs 500 at a time, and this time it is completely wanted, and there is no intention to pay at all.
"Bush, what do you think?" Reagan asked.
As Reagan's deputy, many times, Bush put forward the most reasonable opinions.
"We have to support Pakistan." Bush said: "And, it's full support. Do we have any other choice than to let the Indians know our attitude, to know that what they are doing is wrong, and to make them give up making trouble on the Eastern Front? β
The United States has no other choice, this is in the best interests of the United States, if the situation is allowed to develop, the Pakistani side may give up the struggle with the Soviets and throw itself into the Eastern Front, after all, India is their mortal enemy.
"Give it your full support, do what the Pakistanis say." Reagan said, "No-fly zone, is this a ghost idea that Zia-Haq came up with?" (To be continued......)
