Chapter 432 Jacqueline

It is not easy for the Indian Army to rush to Jammu and Kashmir. The distance between the two places is quite long, and the terrain in between is relatively dangerous, and there are almost no existing roads that can pass through.

Therefore, with the approval of Nehru and the personal organization of Patel, all Indian civil aviation passenger planes were organized to transport the troops participating in the war to Srinagar, the capital of Kashmir. Finally, in the hands of the Kashmiri monarch's territorial army, there was still hope Airport for landing.

This will be absolutely impossible to achieve in a few decades, as large jets are placing higher demands on airports. It was different in 1948. Most of the transport aircraft manufactured during World War II did not have as stringent requirements for airports as later generations.

Srinagar is the capital of the Kashmir state. New Delhi's short-term goal this time is to occupy Srinagar and establish an advantage over Pakistan. Once Srinagar is recaptured, the next stage is to occupy the entire Kashmir and win the battle for Kashmir. A great victory in the battle.

In the end, the leading troops took a transport plane and successfully landed in Srinagar. The Indian army quickly took control of the airport and was stationed at this position with an altitude of 3,500 meters. From this point on, Indian Air Force transport aircraft became the only means of transportation in Jammu and Kashmir to communicate with the outside world.

From any angle, this action was bold. Even the Pakistani army in Srinagar did not expect that the Indians would open a gap in this way. After all, road traffic in Kashmir is very poor, making it difficult to come from the land, let alone from the sky.

Three days later, the Pakistani army in Srinagar discovered that the Srinagar Airport had fallen into the hands of the Indians and had assembled a large military force, posing a threat to Srinagar's security. It is obvious that the two sides will start a big battle in the Srinagar area.

"India will never give up Kashmir, Mr. Jinnah. If you think Kashmir should belong to Pakistan, then you better be prepared to fight to the death with India."

Ali Jinnah, the Governor-General of Pakistan, received the military report from the front line. Under his silent appearance, he remembered Alan Wilson's repeated reminders.

India inherited the main part of British India. From this perspective, it is best for Pakistan to coexist peacefully with India.

But control of Kashmir must not be given up. Losing Kashmir would be like having a hat taken off Pakistan’s head, and one can feel the chill on the top of his head at any time.

"Pakistan carried out general mobilization, confessed the meaning of this battle, and asked the people of the country to support us." After a long time, Ali Jinnah came back to his senses, saw many leaders looking at him, and shouted loudly, "All in order to seize Kashmir as the goal, and at the same time announced to the outside world that Pakistan recognized Hyderabad as an independent country.”

"Pakistan recognizes the independence of Hyderabad?" Alan Wilson looked solemn after receiving the news.

There is some concern about Ali Khan's situation.

"Isn't this what Ali Khan has always dreamed of?" Pamela Mountbatten saw her fiancé's worried expression and asked in confusion, "Why do you have such doubts?"

"A dream is a dream, but Hyderabad is a landlocked state and cannot receive external support. Unless the war between Pakistan and India continues, Hyderabad will sooner or later be invaded by the Indian army. Maharaja Ali Khan is far from Ali Khan Jinnah's favorable conditions." Alan Wilson said with some worry, "Ali Jinnah included Hyderabad in order to seize Kashmir, and the final result is unpredictable."

This is where Alan Wilson is struggling. He does not want India to be divided. Apart from the advantage of its large size, the rest of India is lackluster. Even in comparison of religions, Hinduism is considered the worst religion in the world today.

Without the protection of a large body, Hindus would be a group of all-round scum in front of the Peace Religion, and they could not even compete with their religion. If Pakistan had the size of India, the country that would be beaten down would be India.

But India is so confident that it dares to brag about the Zenith Star even if it has some advantages. It is really annoying.

He feels that it is good that India can maintain its current position, but balancing policies is often the most difficult. Now that Ali Jinnah has recognized Hyderabad's independence, once India has space, it will definitely find a way to solve Hyderabad's problems in the future. After all, according to common sense, Hyderabad, an isolated landlocked state, is much easier to solve than Pakistan.

"It just so happens that the Americans also want to ask us about our views on the subcontinent. I want to meet with the Americans." Alan Wilson and his fiancée said, "I guess I am also asking which side India and Pakistan should prefer."

"Why do Americans?" Pamela Mountbatten said with some dissatisfaction, "Who do they think they are?"

"Dear, it's a good thing that Americans are interested in a place like this with a large population and a lot of trouble to intervene." Alan Wilson corrected him calmly, "The rest can free us, but like the real population We should hold on to places that are sparse and easy to control, like Newfoundland at our feet. Some colonies should be given up, but some must still be preserved with all our strength."

Contraction is not unprincipled contraction. There is a degree to everything. I asked my fiancée to study the lottery carefully and see how we can draw on the strengths of many families and establish fair and just standards. Alan Wilson was ready to send a telegram and make an agreement with the Americans. Time for negotiation.

This time the Kashmir War started so many months later than in history, but it was not entirely a bad thing. At least both sides have had plenty of time to get into their positions.

The first India-Pakistan war in history started in August last year. After more than two trials, it was not until October that it officially entered the war. Less than a month into the war, heavy snow began to block the mountains in Kashmir.

It’s different now. This India-Pakistan war started in the spring. There is enough good weather for India and Pakistan to play, and it will not end up being a small fight due to weather reasons. This is a good thing.

Although Alan Wilson was always prepared in his heart, the traditional skills of the British Empire would give the traitor a backstab. But he knew in his heart that now was not the time, and there would be no such opportunity for at least ten years.

Then we must change our approach, join in and wait for the opportunity. As the former Assistant Commissioner of British India, Alan Wilson's current job is not far from the United States, so he is naturally remembered as an expert on Indian affairs.

In order to reflect the special relationship between Britain and the United States, Alan Wilson is of course obligated to answer the questions of the United States and guide the Americans on the road to world hegemony. As a biological father, he has no shirk from his responsibility, even if the United States is a rebellious son.

It can't be said that Alan Wilson is hard working for his country, not to mention that he already has a diplomatic job. He happened to take Pamela Mountbatten to the United States and tell Boris to send any news directly to the Boston consulate, and he set off with his fiancée.

The fight over Kashmir is still going on. Benj is a strategic location 73 kilometers southwest of Srinagar. It is built on a highland with an altitude of more than 3,000, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. In the early stages of the war, the Pakistani armed forces launched an attack on Benji, but due to the dangerous terrain of Benji, the defenders were unable to capture it. Now it has become an important route for the Indian army to move north.

After the intervention of the Pakistani regular army, in order to regain the initiative in the hinterland of Kashmir, the Pakistani army once again launched a powerful attack on Benj. Both sides invested a large number of troops in the battle. The Benjie area was under heavy fire, with blood and flesh flying everywhere and shrapnel screaming.

The religious enthusiasm of the Peace Religion soldiers and Hindu soldiers were aroused by the crazy attacks and tenacious resistance, and resentment and hatred burned in everyone's hearts. Both sides constantly changed their tactics, charged and killed repeatedly, and their positions changed hands several times.

Before arriving in the United States, Alan Wilson also received a telegram from Ali Khan in which he stated that New Delhi had not said anything about Pakistan's recognition of Hyderabad.

Alan Wilson, who arrived in Boston, sent a reply and said that Nehru's endurance was still good. If his guess was correct, Hyderabad should be safe until the outcome of the battle between India and Pakistan became clear.

Alan Wilson was busy with official duties and had no time to play around. Of course, he still contacted Smithhammer in his busy schedule and made a good relationship with Pamela Mountbatten.

"Dear Miss Pamela, you and Mr. Allen are so well matched." Smithhammer made an exaggerated gesture as soon as he appeared, said words that made Pamela Mountbatten happy, and hugged Allen Wilson's arm. It was also tighter, "Mr. Smith, Allen once mentioned you and said that you are a mature, elegant and successful person."

When did I say that? Just as Alan Wilson was thinking this, he felt the hint coming from his arm and said directly, "Of course, but you don't have to say it out loud, and some things don't need to be expressed so straightforwardly, right, dear?"

"That's the way Ellen is. She only talks endlessly when working." Pamela Mountbatten said a little embarrassed.

Allen Weir could only straighten his back, with a pretentious expression on his face, saying that Pamela Mountbatten was right.

After Smithhammer left, Alan Wilson whispered, "That mature and elegant man has left."

"He is too old, but he should be very attractive to American girls. For example, Jacqueline!" Pamela Mountbatten thought for a while and felt that her idea was correct.

"Jacqueline?" Alan Wilson first concluded that this name was not common, and asked quietly, "Is it the name of an American girl? I don't know what it looks like."

"Restrain yourself!" Pamela Mountbatten's face turned cloudy.

"I'm just asking, can't people be curious?" Alan Wilson looked helpless.
