Chapter 1058 Inspection
The southern foot of the Himalayas is warm and rainy in summer because of the southwest monsoon blowing from the Indian Ocean with a lot of moisture and heat. Many tropical and subtropical crops can be grown here. This land with an area of 300,000 square kilometers is fertile and rich in products, which can be called another Jiangnan.
Through more than ten years of hard work, there are trains in every county here, and national roads, provincial roads, county roads, and township roads cover the entire southern foot. Now the "five-way project" of water, electricity, roads, communications, and Internet has been realized in the southern foot.
The entire southern foot is also the frontier position of China facing South Asia, and its importance is self-evident.
By now, the entire southern foot has basically achieved self-sufficiency and does not need to transport materials from the rear.
And this place is also called a miracle place, which has entered modernization in just over a decade.
Liu Tao even saw tourists from other provinces here, and it has become a tourist attraction.
However, at the military training base, intensive training is being carried out, including training machine gunners, snipers, and gunners.
At this point, Liu Tao had to change his mindset.
Even if the war in South Asia cannot be quelled in a short time, it would be worth fighting for ten or even twenty years.
It is a geopolitical game, and there is no retreat.
If you take a step back, your opponent will not stop, but will only take one or even two steps forward.
This is a life-and-death struggle, and there is no room for compromise.
To be honest, Liu Tao did not expect that the Pakistani Navy would win such a big victory this time, which was too unexpected.
Before, the Pakistani Navy ranked above the Indian Navy in the world for many years, but in fact the gap in strength between the two was not that big.
In particular, the Indian Navy purchased a large number of frigates and destroyers from Polar Bear, and its strength has surpassed that of the Pakistani Navy.
But in this naval battle, the Indian Navy suffered a heavy blow, and the navy that had been accumulated for decades was lost in one day.
Although the warships purchased from Polar Bear have arrived in India, it takes a process from owning warships to exerting combat effectiveness, which can be as short as one or two years, or as long as three or four years.
During this gap, the Pakistani Navy was in an absolute advantage and could launch an attack on any city in the Indian coastal area at will.
It was worthwhile for Liu Tao to specially dispatch the 818-type electronic reconnaissance ship to go to the Maldives for vacation.
In addition, the Himalayan radar position can grasp the every move of the other side's air force, which can be said to have greatly weakened the advantage of the Indian Air Force.
After inspecting the southern foot of the Himalayas, Liu Tao returned to Kunming City. A few days later, on Friday evening, he picked up the children who had just finished school and came to the Maldives for vacation.
The Maldives has become a world-class resort.
Every year, many people come here from all over the world for vacation.
There are many water houses in the Maldives, and many people come here to live in water houses.
This time, Liu Tao and his team also lived in a water house. The blue sky and white clouds here are pure, and the sea water is blue and clear, which is very suitable for tourism.
And the entire Maldives has been called "God's necklace on earth" and "the last paradise in the Indian Ocean" by the world in recent years.
Signs can be seen everywhere, and they are written in both Chinese and English.
As a tourist destination, the population density here is quite high, and most of the things have to be shipped from outside, so the prices are not low.
Here, you can see Chinese people working and traveling here everywhere, and of course you can also see people from other countries.
Zhu Lin took the two children to play, while Liu Tao took a helicopter to the 818-type electronic reconnaissance ship.
Then he came to the command room, which was quite spacious.
Here, you can constantly obtain information about the entire battlefield through reconnaissance satellites, "Haidongqing" unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and its own electronic equipment.
In modern warfare, the importance of informationized combat capabilities is fully demonstrated. Whoever has stronger informationized combat capabilities will have an advantage on the battlefield.
"Chief, the Pakistani Navy is now at this position!" The commander pointed to "Daman" on the ground.
Daman is a port city in India with a population of about 190,000.
This is also a material transit point, and many materials are transported from here to the front line.
Once the Pakistani Navy attacks here, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble for the supply of materials and ammunition on the Indian front line.
The current battle area between the two sides is actually in the Thar Desert.
The Thar Desert is a desert, but unlike the uninhabited desert in everyone's impression, the Thar Desert is not only the smallest desert in the world, but also the most densely populated desert in the world.
In the entire Thar Desert, there are millions of Indians and Pakistanis combined.
In terms of logistics and supply, India is more difficult.
Pakistan has the Indus River Plain nearby for supply, so logistics and supply are easier.
At this time, the port of Daman welcomed an uninvited guest.
"Boom~~"
Pakistani naval warships are shelling the port of Daman.
Since the shelling of Mumbai, Daman is the sixth Indian coastal city attacked by Pakistani naval warships.
The importance of the navy is vividly reflected in the India-Pakistan war.
In the past, many people would think that with the development of aircraft and missiles, the navy is no longer important. After all, the combat radius of aircraft is hundreds of kilometers or even thousands of kilometers, and the range of missiles is even longer.
In front of aircraft and missiles, warships are live targets.
But it turns out that not every country has a strong air force and missile force, and can attack warships with missiles.
It should be said that the number of countries in the world that can do this can be counted on one hand.
For more countries, when they have no navy, facing the navy of their opponents, they have to pay the price of blood.
Like the Pakistani naval formation, it does not capture the port, but only bombards bridges, ports, railways, roads, and paralyzes transportation facilities, which can already cause a great impact, and even directly affect the supply of materials on the front battlefield.
Moreover, the war is not limited to the front battlefield, but has burned to the rear of India, and the impact and blow caused are very fatal.
Now India’s voice on the ceasefire can no longer be suppressed.
Many forces took this opportunity to launch an attack at this time, opposing the policies of the ruling party, and even scolded the ruling party for being used as a gun by others.
And some forces even want to secede one side, or even establish an independent country.
After all, in the past, India has never been a country, but a geographical concept.
This saying is not only widely circulated in other countries and regions, but also in India. It is said that it was said by the famous Indian poet Tagore, and many Indians believe this statement.
And as long as you know a little bit, before the partition of India and Pakistan, India has always been a geographical concept, not a country like India.
If India is a country, there will be no partition of India and Pakistan.
In Pakistan and India, many people attribute the conflict between the two sides to the "partition of India and Pakistan" created by the British.
