Chapter 500 Indian Security War

Seeing Vivien Leigh's lack of interest, Alan Wilson sighed in his heart. The British FBI did not know about the relationship between the two, but it was already known to the FBI in the United States.

This is certainly not a good thing, but Alan Wilson doesn't think it's that daunting. A dignified intelligence agency still cares about the relationship between men and women? Just because of the relationship between men and women, his fear of the FBI was very limited, and he was not targeted by the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The modern intelligence department that really conquered the country was the Soviet State Security Council, which later became the KGB. More than a dozen general bureaus each manage a beach, including military, transportation, border defense, internal security, science and technology, civil defense and firefighting, and even cadre recuperation.

But the KGB was only a part of the power department after the split of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The most terrifying thing right there was the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Soviet Union, which was managed by Beria himself. It was a complete Ministry of Internal Affairs with independent judicial power. The power that the later KGB had was nothing more than what the subordinate departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are doing now.

During the KGB period, the Soviet Union also had a Ministry of Internal Affairs. The reason why it does not seem to be as powerful as the KGB is because during the Khrushchev period, the power of the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs was delegated to the union republics, while the power of the KGB was still in Moscow. came from behind to gain KGB power.

In short, the department that can scare Alan Wilson to death is not in the United States, and he is not worried about what the FBI will do to him because of this incident.

In Los Angeles, Ellen Wilson just wanted to touch Vivien Leigh's belly and experience the healthy growth of her child. Then he just found a few familiar friends. Recently, he had been looking for Pauline Gaudier quite frequently. After all, he was a consul with the talents of a prime minister. It was normal for him to talk to Chaplin's ex-wife when he had nothing to do.

The sky above New Delhi, the capital of India, was covered with clouds and drizzle. The rising water vapor is like a thick dusk, covering the entire city. The various colored signal lights at the international airport have also lost their former brilliance. From a distance, they look like a hazy halo.

Nehru, Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of India, stood in front of the large floor-to-ceiling windows of the VIP lounge and stared at the tarmac outside the window for a long time. He was wearing a robe, with a pair of bright black eyes embedded in his brown face, and his slightly moving lips were muttering something to himself. His steps were steady and his energy was strong, except for his gorgeous hair and the black and white beard between his lips.

"Nehru influenced the world." Indians said so, and many leaders of the world have said this about him.

Nehru had been committed to India's independence and liberation since his youth and was arrested and imprisoned five times. With his perseverance and superhuman organizational skills, he and Mahatma Gandhi united all parties, classes, and people of all religious beliefs in India, and finally won India's independence.

"The first, almost instinctive reaction of every new regime is to tightly hold on to the territory left to it. Wherever the colonial power once ruled, the emerging country must rule."

At first, when he saw this passage by the British historian Gunnar Myrdal, he ridiculed it. Unexpectedly, now I also taste the bitter and spicy taste.

However, at this moment, his mood was like this rainy weather, dark and gloomy,

The impact of the British Empire's rule on the subcontinent was extremely far-reaching. Unlike the enthusiastic Indian citizens, Nehru knew in his heart that independence was just the beginning, and his reputation could not mean that India had been freed from all its ills.

Nehru hoped to use his fame to promote reconciliation, but it backfired and he had to resort to using force to solve the problem, but this must be solved.

If there was anything that touched Nehru in recent years, it was that during the process of Indonesia's independence, the European colonial powers came together to forcibly split Indonesia up at the United Nations, taking away the two largest islands in the archipelago. Islands occupy almost half of the territory of the new country.

The experience in Indonesia made Nehru clearly realize that if there was a partition between India and Pakistan, there was another reason why Ali Jinnah insisted on it. Well, after the partition of India and Pakistan, European colonial countries have discovered the benefits and regarded partition as a feasible path.

Of course Nehru sympathized with what happened to Sukarno and Indonesia as a whole, but at this stage he still had his own affairs to deal with, including the many princely states in the country, especially the most powerful princely state of Hyderabad, whose Maharaja Ali Khan has resisted New Delhi's exercise of power across India.

After ending the war with Pakistan over Kashmir, Nehru turned to look at internal issues.

The India-Pakistan war caused by Kashmir finally ended with India having a slight advantage. Kashmir's independence no longer exists. India occupies slightly more than half of the land, and it is more fertile and more populous. It can be regarded as an explanation for the country.

For ministers who wanted to continue the war, Nehru comforted them by saying that they should resolve internal problems first. It was indeed time for internal problems to be solved, but this time it didn't go well either.

Because Ali Khan had a supernumerary minister, Alan Wilson, who was working as a consul in the United States, it could be said that even before the end of World War II, preparations were being made on the premise that the British Empire would withdraw from the subcontinent.

In order to prove that he is by no means a white-collar wage earner, Supernumerary Minister Alan Wilson did his best to make independent India struggle more in the quagmire. A large number of German weapons destined to be used as scrap metal were brought to the subcontinent by both wings.

At the same time, a group of German soldiers helped Ali Khan train the Hyderabad army in the name of instructors. Of course, today, because the environment in Germany has stabilized and it has received support from the Marshall Plan, there are not many German soldiers still in Hyderabad, and most of the German soldiers have returned to Europe.

But the remaining German officers still played an important role, commanding Ali Khan's army and using a large number of German land and air weapons to sniper the attacking Indian army in this armed conflict.

The area of ​​Hyderabad is actually larger than Kashmir. The legacy of the powerful princely state that has been an alliance with the British for hundreds of years is quite rich. The huge area of ​​the princely state also gives the Germans room to play.

If Hyderabad had not voluntarily given the northern land to British India in 1903, Hyderabad would be even bigger now.

It is true that the German advisers of Ali Khan's army did not even have major generals, but a group of lieutenant officers who had been tested by war and faced sieges from all over the world were still able to operate with ease here in the subcontinent.

Although Hyderabad did not respond in time when it first faced the Indian army's attack, the Indian army's slow actions finally gave Hyderabad time to make arrangements.

The Germans first determined that there were not many attacking Indian troops, and that was exactly what happened. Even Alan Wilson, who was far away in the United States, could see that India still lacked experience in commanding large corps. German officers who had actually fought with the Soviet Red Army could easily judge this.

After making this judgment, the German officers formulated a plan to rely on the Deccan Plateau to resist and wait for opportunities to counterattack.

The Deccan Plateau is the largest lava plateau in the world. It is a huge ancient land mass of the Precambrian period. It is the core of the subcontinent. Although the altitude is not high, not even as high as the mountains in Europe, it is very steep. The low Deccan Plateau is very fragmented and is not conducive to the development of the continent. Corps attack.

The scale of Hyderabad ranks first among the princely states. Ali Khan has his own army, propaganda system, railway network, postal system and currency. There is also an advantage noticed by German officers, that is, Hyderabad's railway is wide. rail.

This is because when Ali Khan was building the railway, he was interfered by the Governor-General of British India, which resulted in the railway network of Hyderabad not being connected to most railways in India. But now, it is being used by German officers. When a defensive war occurs, this is not only not a disadvantage, but also an advantage.

The roads in the Deccan Plateau are winding, steep and narrow, and in some places they are just winding trails. It is indeed not easy to disperse thinly-strength troops along such a distant front, and to ensure that they are constantly supplied with food and ammunition, or to resolutely withstand a tenacious enemy who almost relies on their own bases to fight.

However, with Hyderabad's self-contained railway network, they began to take advantage of this, and Hyderabad's army advanced in two parts. The main force advanced northward along the railway. A smaller but better guard force intended to follow the only narrow road across the central plateau to the Krishna River.

The two troops finally captured an Indian army that penetrated deep into Hyderabad. It was a regiment in size and was an ace unit that had just withdrawn from the battlefield in Kashmir. The purpose of coming to Hyderabad was also simple, to move from one victory to another. victory.

The fighting lasted all day, with close combat occurring from time to time, with an intensity unprecedented in previous wars.

Before night fell, many soldiers in the Indian army found that they were almost out of ammunition.

It was not until they received the order to retreat that the Indians realized that their retreat had been cut off. A strong Hyderabad force blocked the main road before the engagement. They firmly controlled the position and made many unsuccessful attacks by Indian reinforcements in order to drive them ahead of reinforcements from the Indian Army.

Indian troops, understanding that the situation was unfavorable, began to retreat, but were ambushed on the main road. As a result, the place was quickly filled with destroyed vehicles, and the tank crews and infantrymen fled in panic.

After losing its surprise, New Delhi's offensive entered a Kashmir-style battle track. The war can be said to be ongoing every day, but it is protracted and has turned into shelling and attacking each other.

At this time, there is no such thing as a security war, but in fact, India's military operations have become a security war model.
