Chapter 21: Confrontation

The helicopter soon flew over the Sandro River.

The first thing we did was to find the location of the outpost built by the Indian army against the map...... After all, we are here to shock the Indian devils, and if we are 108,000 miles away from the outpost established by the Indian devils, it will not play a role at all.

It was not difficult to find the location of the Indian army post.

This is partly due to the fact that our troops have several guides who are familiar with the terrain in this area...... These guides are local warriors, they can speak both Chinese and Tibetan, and they are also familiar with the local Tibetan customs, and it goes without saying that the benefits of bringing them will be of great help to life and complete tasks.

On the other hand, it was Division Commander Wu who was also fully prepared for this.

Division Commander Wu is a very cautious person, and he is worried that if something goes wrong, if our helicopter finds the wrong place, the Indian army will see a joke, and the strategic purpose of shocking the Indian army will definitely be greatly reduced.

Anyway, it's possible to be born on other planes...... In this era, our army's fighters or helicopters do not have a positioning system, Beidou is still a few decades later, if you are not familiar with the terrain, it is common to find the wrong place or even fly in the wrong direction.

But the problem is that our Black Hawk helicopter is American, and it can be said that there is no difficulty in finding the destination under the GPS navigation, but Division Commander Wu is still not at ease......

In fact, this can't be blamed on him, where will the soldiers of this era understand what GPS navigation and the like, this thing is an advanced thing for the Yankees, even Zheng Liangqiang, an old pilot, doesn't believe it.

Of course, the reason why the Yankees used such advanced equipment on the Black Hawk sold to us was to make them free real Yàn like a Stinger, and the other was to advertise for the promotion of their GPS, and even the Black Hawk helicopter had this intention.

The purpose of the advertisement...... Then there is no need to say more. The Yankees have always been war money, and as soon as other countries see that Black Hawk helicopters can play such a big role on China's plateau, orders will soon fly to the United States like snowflakes.

And that's exactly what happened. Historically, the Sikorsky Company, which produces Black Hawk helicopters in the United States, used the photos of the "Black Hawk" soaring over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau as advertisements everywhere.

At this time, Division Commander Wu did not know these characteristics of the "Black Hawk" helicopter, so he arranged several teams of scouts on the ground. Signal flags for us along the way...... Although this is a bit redundant for us, it is better than nothing, so we went with the commander of the army.

When the helicopter flew over the Indian outpost, we couldn't help but be stunned, originally we thought that the Indian outpost should have a watchtower or something, but to our surprise no, only a few dilapidated houses and rows of tents on the anti-slope came into our sight, and the only place that looked a little like a sentry post was an "A" shaped fortification built of logs on the hilltop position.

But when I think about it, I think it's normal. The Indian devils are engaged in a step-by-step approach, they know that they are at a loss or unwilling to provoke our side too much, so the things they have built up do not have too many military elements, and it is no wonder that our army thought at first that this was just an occasional shelter for the Indian army.

India below soon saw movement in the air, after all, ten helicopters came straight to the ground with the sound of "sudden" spiral slurry, and this battle was not small.

The first to appear was the Indian soldier standing guard on the hilltop position, who was stunned in the aperture of my telescope for a long time, and then pointed at us with his comrades before finally deciding to send someone to report to the main force.

This scene struck me as a little incredible, considering that every second counts on the battlefield, especially when helicopters are close to them. It was a Black Hawk helicopter that was more than 300 kilometers long, and let them toss like this...... I'm afraid that the main forces of the Indian army have not yet received the news, and the rocket artillery and machine gun bullets on our helicopters have already been fired.

And this is the response of India's "Special Service Bureau", which is known as the elite force.

Then, the Indian army climbed to the top of the hill with dozens of people like a great enemy, holding weapons and erecting all kinds of weapons.

This move surprised me again...... Let's not talk about their loose formation and unreasonable firepower allocation. As we all know, when the enemy's air power attacks, the first thing to do should be to evacuate and find cover, rather than rushing into the basically unprotected hilltop position in groups.

However, I think that this may not be able to say that the "special service bureau" of the Indian army is a rookie, after all, they have been facing the situation that the Chinese people have not had helicopters for decades, and now they don't know how to deal with the sudden arrival of several helicopters.

At this time, I silently recited a few words in my heart, "Shoot".

I'm hoping that the Indian devil will shoot, but we are prepared this time, the helicopter is equipped with a total of two cameras, and the Indian devil's table has been filmed the whole way. As long as they shoot...... Then don't blame us for being polite.

However, it is obvious that the "special service bureau" of the Indian army is, after all, also a unit that has been conducting reconnaissance and intelligence collection on the Sino-Indian border for a long time. Knowing what the consequences of firing first would be, he only stood guard on the hilltop position the whole time without any further action.

And what about us...... It was formed into an offensive formation, which was very high-profile, almost passing low over the heads of the Indian troops. The snowflakes set off by the helicopter propeller made the Indian army wolf-bèi unbearable, and even several Indian soldiers were lifted off their hats by the strong air current.

We couldn't help laughing when we saw the Indian army looking like this on the helicopter, and even a few soldiers leaned out of the hatch and waved the 81 bar in their hands at the Indian army, as if to warn them to be honest, otherwise they would look good.

I didn't stop the soldiers, although we Chinese have a saying called "salute first and then soldier", that is, we should "salute first" when we first come up.

But I knew that this kind of territorial "courtesy" against India would not have any effect, as can be seen from the time in '62 that finally forced our army to fight a war of self-defense...... The character of the Indians is a typical bullying of the weak and afraid of the hard, the British colonized and exploited them for hundreds of years, and now the Indians not only do not hate the British, but think that they are superior people, and they are proud of knowing English or fair skin.

And we have always treated India with courtesy, even if in 62 India repeatedly provoked our border under various pretexts and even killed and injured our border guards, our country once hoped that the border issue could be resolved peacefully, which is also the reason why Premier Zhou Enlai visited India four times in just six years from 54 to 6O.

However, India did not think that China was a "courtesy" to them, but naively thought that China was afraid of them, so in the end, there was the self-defense counterattack against India in 62.

With the lessons of the war in '62, I believe that the higher-level leaders have also realized one point: International exchanges are sometimes not solved by emphasizing "courtesy" and "reason", and in many cases, they are also about showing their own strength, that is, letting the other side know how hard our fists are.

This is also one of the purposes for which the higher authorities sent our synthetic battalion here.

It is for this purpose that when we arrived at our destination, which is the No. 1 highland, we used the rope descent very high-profile...... The four helicopters first flew around the No. 1 Heights in two groups, and when it was confirmed that there was no threat to Zài, the remaining six helicopters split into two directions and launched a rope landing at two positions on the No. 1 Heights.

Just like the usual training, the whole rope landing process is clean and neat, surrounded by helicopter reconnaissance and cover, first a helicopter descends to the high ground with the fastest degree of rope to spread out the formation and organize the defense, and then the troops on the other helicopters descend to the high ground one by one.

This scene only saw the Indian army on the opposite side stunned...... You must know that although they are the so-called elite units of the Indian army, although they also have Soviet heavy transport helicopters Mi-26, they have never conducted such training.

On the other hand, they are also soldiers, of course, they can see the power of our actions...... In just a few minutes, the high ground that originally belonged to their rear was in the hands of the Chinese people, and if it was a real battle, they would have to show their backs in front of the enemy in a moment.

After getting off the plane, I didn't say much, but with a wave of my hand, I motioned for the soldiers to unload the supplies and equipment on the "Black Hawk", and while the soldiers were busy, I raised my binoculars and looked at the Indian outpost not far away.

As I got earlier, there are two posts set up by the Indian army on the opposite side, which is why we are going to climb 6 at two different positions on Heights 1...... These two positions correspond to the two posts of the Indian army, respectively.

We are not far from the Indian army post, and the distance in a straight line is only more than 300 meters.

This is our careful calculation, you must know that although the FN rifle in the hands of the Indian army has the disadvantage of insufficient firepower, the advantage is that the firing range reaches more than 600 meters...... The range of the 81 bar in our hands is only 400 meters, if the distance is too far, isn't it the length of attacking the other with our own shortcomings?!

Of course, it is not very likely that they will shoot each other as soon as they come up, but psychologically it will create a disadvantage of "we can't hit the enemy and the enemy can hit us".

But now, the distance between them is only more than 300 meters, which means that the long range of the FN has no effect at all, and the 81 bar, which shoots faster and has a larger bullet capacity, has more advantages.

Maybe I was seeing me observing the Indian army's outpost, and an officer with a long mustache in the direction of the Indian army also raised his binoculars and looked at us.

I couldn't help but put down my binoculars and smiled: If this is a real battle, they are only afraid that they will all be corpses at this time, so I really admire their calmness. (To be continued)
