Chapter 721 Sending troops
At that time, the Congress Party of Sikkim, supported by India, sought to incorporate Sikkim into India. At such a critical moment, in order to prevent the people of Sikkim from becoming second-class citizens in South Asia, it was also because of historical origins. After all, in history, Sikkim has long regarded China as the ruling country, so the National Party hoped to incorporate Sikkim into China so as to live with Ah San. The National Party also announced the temporary design of the "Sikkim Administrative Region" district flag and emblem, and announced that Chinese was parallel to Bhutanese, Nepali, Rebcha, etc., becoming the twelfth official language in Sikkim, and at the same time, it became the second documentary term after English.
Unfortunately, China was in turmoil at that time and had no ability to manage South Asian affairs at all. Even Dongba was dismembered, China could only support it. Therefore, facing the request of the National Party to join with such friendly requests, China could only bear the pain and ignore it. The five-star red flag was even flying on the Sikkim building, but China still did nothing.
Finally, the Indian soldiers came over stinkingly, declared the National Party as an illegal party organization, suppressed the uprising organized by the National Party, and had a head-on exchange of fire with the "Rebucha People's Liberation Army" led by the National Party and various civil armed organizations that support state independence. In Gangtok, the capital of the main war zone, the fire lasted for nearly an hour and a half, and the smelly Indian soldiers won.
This is a period of touching years. In addition to the fact that China was indeed powerless at that time, another reason was that China still respected the royal family at that time. You should know that the National Party in Sikkim also opposed the ancient and corrupt rule of the royal family. As early as 1967, China declared the National Party of Sikkim a "opportunist party" and "nationalist party" and abandoned it from the list of "international revolutionary parties and organizations". Therefore, the National Party's letter of joining China became increasingly despised.
Now, the National Party has almost disappeared in Sikkim. After the rule of the past twenty years, the people of Sikkim have not felt any happiness. They have lived the same life as before and endured the exploitation of India. They have long been disappointed with the Indian government.
Now, the situation in South Asia is already very obvious. Indians are hiding near New Delhi, watching the Eastern Front decay. They are not able to recover these areas. In this case, the time for Sikkim to restore sovereignty has come.
For China, it is still recognized that the Sikkim royal family is the orthodox ruler of Sikkim. Now, since the Sikkim royal family has expressed this desire to join China, China must of course satisfy the Sikkim royal family.
After all, the eternal interests between countries are the interests. The Sikkim royal family has no ability to restore Sikkim's sovereignty and can only rely on the Chinese army. China cannot be Lei Feng and does good deeds without leaving a name for it. China now has reformed and opened up and has a concept. The era of selfless helping the third world is over.
The meeting ended in a friendly atmosphere, and the two sides reached a consensus that China helped Sikkim restore its country, while Sikkim was incorporated into China's territory in the form of an administrative region. It was just a political merger, and Sikkim still enjoys a high degree of autonomy within Sikkim.
South Tibet, near the McMahon Line.
The high ridge, the snow that never melts all year round, can't see anything except the whistling wind.
On this ridge, white bulges suddenly appeared. These bulges stood up from the ridge and slowly moved forward.
This is a famous warrior! They were wearing white cloaks and were strong in shape. They crawled over from the mountainous areas over there, and were still energetic.
Holding a steel gun in his hand and looking ahead, there were more and more people behind them.
The entire 53 mountain brigade was dispatched! They climbed through the mountains here and set off from here to liberate the entire southern Tibet region!
Behind them, an infantry division of the Chengdu Military Region, and a unit of tens of thousands of people will climb over from here and attack the Dawang garrison on the opposite side!
At the same time, the 52nd Mountain Brigade and another infantry division were moving along the Yarlung Zangbo Valley, appearing from another direction, encircling these Indian troops and occupying Sikkim at the same time.
The biggest difficulty in mountain combat is supply. Each of them only brought rations for a week and three base ammunition. As long as they occupied Dawang, they could obtain sufficient supplies from Bangladesh.
In the past war, although China captured a large area of territory, it was quite difficult to transport supplies through the towering Himalayas. Even if it occupied the area here, it still could not be defended. Now, the situation has changed a lot. Bangladesh has returned to Pakistan's hands. Although it has not announced a merger to the outside world, it is actually true that Pakistan's large-scale garrison in Bangladesh. As long as China enters southern Tibet and occupys Sikkim, it will border the Pakistani controlled area. In this way, supplies can be directly transported through Pakistan, which is also the reason why China dares to use force.
The company commander of the leading reconnaissance company, Zhang Aiguo, raised his telescope and searched forward. The places he saw remained the same.
"Continue to move forward!" Zhang Aiguo shouted, leading the vanguard toward the mountain.
In the entire southern Tibet region, Dawang Town occupies an important position because only this is a flat land in the southern Tibet region and is also the most populous area. Indian troops are mainly in Dawang Town. As long as Dawang is occupied, it will almost occupy the entire Arunachal Pradesh.
Although the Indians also have several divisions here, those troops similar to reserves are simply inactive. Moreover, in recent years, the Chinese army has been constantly reforming and fighting styles are no longer the wars of the traditional continental military era in the past. Their vanguards carry radio equipment and can call for air support at any time.
Last time China dispatched the J-H-7, blowing up the Indian artillery position. The Indians did not even leave any fart. There was only a second-tier airport and a few old MiG-21 aircraft. They were simply unable to maintain the air supremacy here. Almost as long as they flew together, they would be beaten up by the Pakistani Air Force in Chittagong. Therefore, the Chinese Air Force could easily provide ground support here.
In the past, the main fighter jets that China supported to the ground were the strong five. This type of aircraft had limited range and had poor take-off and landing capabilities on the plateau. Therefore, in the last border conflict, the army was the protagonist, and the Air Force did not dispatch it at all.
Now, with the replacement of air force equipment, the J-H-7 has entered the air force. This type of aircraft has advanced engines, low fuel consumption and long range, which is enough to hover over the northern region for two hours, and is on standby at any time. Once support is needed, it will cross the border and conduct ground attacks.
Carrying the Type 1 rifle, the Chinese soldiers once again set foot on the land of southern Tibet. This time, they will go and completely solve the problem in southern Tibet!
As we walked down, the snow was gone and the temperature began to rise. We put away the white cloak, which was filled with jungle camouflage combat uniforms. The officers and soldiers of the 53 Mountain Brigade stepped on the path and continued to move forward.
The sun sets and the moon rises. Dawang Town is right in front!
"Report, no sentries were found, no open or secret sentries!" Zhang Aiguo leaned against a big tree and listened to the words of the scouts who had just sent out.
A few kilometers away is the Indian army's base. Now the border areas between the two countries are so tense, the Indian army must be highly alert and the sneak attack is very difficult. Moreover, the infantry division behind is still climbing over the mountains and may arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Their main task now is to find out the situation of the Indian army's garrison, then call for air support, and blow them up first.
But now, they are almost touching their nests, but they have never encountered the Indian army. There are no small groups of patrols and sentries. Everything is so weird.
"Previous!" Zhang Aiguo said, "Catch your tongue and ask about the situation."
Since there are no open or secret whistles, let’s keep getting closer and try to catch a prisoner!
They approached the garrison step by step. If the garrison was alarmed and the large number of Indian troops came out, they would have to escape.
As he gradually approached the wall of the garrison, Zhang Aiguo's doubts became increasingly greater. All this was too unusual. What's going on?
Soon he touched the base of the wall, skillfully climbed up the wall, and used an infrared imager to observe it inside, Zhang Aiguo became even more puzzled.
There was no movement, the entire station was empty!
"Grandma, there's no one!" Zhang Aiguo jumped off the wall and couldn't help but feel a little depressed. He came all the way, without a single shot, and the Indian garrison had already run away!
With a company, he entered the camp that could accommodate tens of thousands of garrisons. Zhang Aiguo saw that the dormitory had no bedding and nothing was left. The bed was empty, and the kitchen was covered with a layer of dust. Obviously, there was no one for several days.
"Notify the brigade commander, the Indians ran away." Zhang Aiguo said.
He touched it all the way and planned to fight a war. Now he didn't use anything, and the Indians were gone! He just felt something was wrong, but now he finally realized that there was not even a car here!
As the flattest piece of land in Arunachal Pradesh, there are enough roads to pass through. Although the Indians are poor, the second-tier troops can still afford cars. In this station, there is no empty training ground and there is no car. Obviously, everyone has evacuated.
