Chapter 1032: Begging for alms and military purchases

Islamabad.

This is a new city with an excellent geographical location. It is backed by the high Himalayas and faces the wide Indus River Plain. To the east is the beautiful Rawal Lake and to the west is an open river valley. It has beautiful scenery and a pleasant environment. It is less than 100 kilometers away from Peshawar.

When India and Pakistan were divided and Pakistan was founded, the capital was originally in Karachi in southern Pakistan, but the strategic depth there was shallow and there was no room for development, so Pakistan rebuilt this new city, which has only been forty years.

Islamabad Capital District has many modern buildings and traditional Islamic characteristics. It is divided into administrative, embassy, ​​residential, industrial, commercial, green and other areas. The entire urban area covers an area of ​​909 square kilometers.

Islamabad was originally close to the ceasefire line between India and Pakistan, but with Pakistan's seizure of the Kashmir region in the last India-Pakistan war and the establishment of the Khalistan State, it has been far away from the war.

The benefits of taking Kashmir and the establishment of the Khalistan State to Pakistan are self-evident. For example, this has enabled Islamabad to develop very quickly. Now Islamabad can be called a modern city.

The China-Pakistan Railway runs from the Kashgar region of China, through Kashmir, through Islamabad, and finally reaches Gwadar Port; in addition to the China-Pakistan Railway, the China-Pakistan Highway has been built, which also passes through Islamabad.

The improvement in transportation has promoted the development of Islamabad. In addition, Panshan Group operates Gwadar Port, making Gwadar Port a large port city, bringing huge benefits to Pakistan.

Just selling land and real estate development have made Pakistan earn a lot of money.

At this time, Islamabad did not have the atmosphere of war, but was very peaceful. There were many men and women on the streets. Most women covered their faces with veils, but a few were dressed fashionably.

With the promotion of friendship between China and Pakistan, close exchanges in politics, economy, culture, and military, some Chinese ideas have also influenced Pakistan, making Pakistan more tolerant than before, and will not shout and kill women who are fashionable and do not wear veils.

Even Pakistani colleges and universities have female students, and these female students will have fixed places to study in Chinese colleges and universities or as exchange students.

At this time, the headquarters in the power center of Islamabad was holding a military meeting.

The sudden war also caught Pakistan off guard.

Pakistan's armed forces are composed of regular army, paramilitary forces and reserve forces. The regular army is divided into three armies: navy, army and air force, with 587,000 active troops.

The reserve force is 513,000, including 500,000 army, 5,000 navy and 8,000 air force.

Paramilitary forces, 185,000 National Guard, 35,000 border guards, equipped with 45 armored transport vehicles, 25,000 Pakistan Rangers (under the Ministry of Internal Affairs), about 2,000 Coast Guard, equipped with 1 destroyer and 8 speedboats, and the Coast Guard is equipped with 23 speedboats.

Since its founding in 1947, Pakistan has always attached great importance to the construction of national armed forces, and regards it as one of the key tools for implementing the policy aimed at defending territorial integrity and gaining regional dominance.

The main and largest branch of the Pakistani armed forces is the Army, which currently has about 520,000 troops, accounting for nearly 90% of the total number of armed forces.

Even after seizing the Kashmir region, Pakistan did not relax in the construction of its armed forces.

Because Pakistan knows its opponent India too well, and knows that India, an old opponent, will never give up.

So for so many years, Pakistan has been strengthening its armed forces. Most of its elite troops are deployed on the eastern defense line, and then make friends with several countries such as Khalistan to fight against India.

The entire Pakistani Army is composed of infantry, artillery, armored tank troops, missile troops, engineering troops, communications troops, and army aviation. In addition, it also includes reconnaissance, artillery ordnance, replenishment and transportation, health, repair/recovery, general education and training, military police departments, and logistics support troops and detachments. The Pakistan Army has a total of 9 armies, 21 divisions (15 infantry divisions, 4 armored tank divisions, 2 artillery divisions), 24 independent brigades (7 infantry brigades, 1 mechanized brigade, 7 armored tank brigades, 9 artillery brigades), 7 engineering brigades, 1 special brigade, and 16 aviation squadrons.

The main forces of the Pakistan Army are deployed on the Pakistan-India border. A total of 7 armies are deployed in this direction, including 12 infantry divisions and 4 tank armored divisions, 6 infantry brigades and 6 independent armored tank brigades.     Two armies (including 3 infantry divisions and 1 independent armored tank brigade) are deployed elsewhere.

Pakistan has always maintained relatively high-intensity training, guarding against the Indian army and preparing for war at any time.

But when the war broke out, it was still beyond Pakistan's expectations.

The materials, weapons and ammunition originally planned to be prepared were consumed at an alarming rate, and the scale of the Indian army's deployment was also beyond expectations.

The Indian Army dispatched more than 500,000 troops, which was an advantage in terms of manpower. In addition, the Indian Army dispatched a large number of aircraft in an attempt to seize air superiority.

The air forces of both sides engaged in fierce confrontations over the battlefield, and suffered heavy losses.

The war broke out only three days ago, and both sides lost dozens of aircraft. The intensity of the war was so great that Pakistan was somewhat tight.

This meeting was to coordinate all parties and invest more resources.

In the India-Pakistan war, the losing side often has to pay a heavy price. This is the conclusion drawn from many wars between the two sides.

There is only hatred between the two sides, no friendship at all.

Whether it is the conflicts accumulated from previous wars or the conflicts in religious beliefs, there is no possibility of reconciliation between the two sides.

Every ceasefire is just a ceasefire, preparing for the next war.

"In addition, I will arrange for people to make friends with friends in the Middle East, and then arrange to go to the East to find our old friend Panshan Group and buy a batch of weapons and ammunition from them!" The scale of the war is so large that Pakistan alone cannot do it. "In addition, I will send people to other countries to let them fight against the Indian army together. They should understand the principle of lips and teeth being cold!"

"In addition, we must condemn India for starting the war privately in the international community, and India must bear all responsibilities!"

This time, the Indian army took the initiative to attack, and this kind of thing cannot be denied.

Because all major military countries have reconnaissance satellites, it is easy to detect.

Who started first is clear at a glance.

To be honest, the Pakistani military did not pay attention to the large-scale mobilization of the Indian army beforehand, which led to the start of the war and the Pakistani army suffered losses.

Otherwise, if the corresponding mobilization was carried out in advance, the losses would not be as great as they are now.

After the meeting, under the coordination and organization of various departments, a large amount of supplies were transported to the front battlefield.

It’s just that the mountains are advantageous for Pakistan in defense, but disadvantageous in transporting supplies.
