.
In this case, the commander of the First Division made an amazing decision. The entire division had more entanglements with the Indian army and marched directly into New Delhi. Because the incident happened suddenly, the commander of the First Division did not ask for instructions, but simply made a report and then drove directly.
After receiving the telegram, Song Bingce approved the combat plan without hesitation and then transferred the situation to Zhao Gang. Zhao Gang quickly replied: "The general is away, and the king will not accept it." This gave Song Bingce a green light. So the First Division wanted to go down the mountain and pounced towards Delhi like a tiger.
New Delhi is the capital of the Republic of India and the national political, economic and cultural center. It is located at 77 degrees east longitude and 28 degrees north latitude. The Yamuna River, a tributary of the Ganges River, flows slowly from the east of the city, and the wide Ganges plains on the other side of the river. New Delhi is an ancient and young city. As a central government district, it includes both the vicissitudes of old Delhi and the location of the central government, and is collectively known as Delhi. The total area is 1,485 square kilometers and the population is about 900. The main languages are English, Hindi, Urdu and Punjabi.
There are various different opinions about the origin of the "Derry". Some scholars believe that Delhi evolved according to the name of "Dru", a king of the Mauryan Dynasty, which is a voice-changing of "Dru". Other scholars believe that in the 10th century BC, the city was famous for Indo 226 and Porest. King Arngebar once changed it to Lalegod and established many iron pillars. Because the iron pillars were unstable, they were still loose and unstable. "Unstable" was pronounced as "Tidal" in Hindi. Therefore, this city was named after "Tidal" (i.e. Delhi).
In fact, Old Delhi and New Delhi are now completely connected. When the Indian people talk about the capital, they usually call it "Delhi" rather than "New Delhi". Therefore, it seems more in line with reality to call the Indian capital "Delhi". The word "Delhi" comes from Persian, meaning "threshold". Or "doorway", and some people also think it is "mountain", "highland", "end" or "quicksand". These statements come from ancient Hindi.
Delhi has a glorious past and long history. As an ancient capital and a cultural city, it deeply attracted countless tourists from all over the country. According to the Indian epic Mahabharata, the Bandu people built their capital here more than 1,000 BC. In the 1st century BC, Raja Diri, the prince of the Mauryan Dynasty, established the country here and built the capital. He named the city after his own name. It is also the ruins of seven dynasties in Indian history, leaving behind rich historical relics, which can be said to be a treasure house of Indian historical relics. Now Old Delhi is the last city to be preserved.
There are still many ruins of ancient cities in the area and suburbs, and there are still 6 ancient cities that can be identified to this day. Among them are: the Hindu kingdom Alinang Pal + built in 1060; the city of Sili built in the period of King Ala Udding Ding of the Erji Dynasty; the Dulorat Bad built in 1321; Flozbad built in the period of Flozsha Dulorat; and the Old Delhi left by Pranakkila during the Mughal Dynasty in the 16th century. It was the site of construction that Xia Jiehan, the fifth emperor of the Mughal Dynasty, ordered the construction to start in 1638.
There are many famous places and historical sites in Old Delhi. There is a famous historical site in the northeast corner of the city, which is the "Forbidden City" of India - the Delhi Palace. Because its walls are built with red sandstone, the fort. Anyone who has been to Delhi will visit this famous palace. It was built in 10 years. The entire building is octagonal with 5 city gates. The wall on the river is 30 meters high, which is magnificent and majestic. The inner halls in the city are made of marble and red sandstone. The stone pillars and walls are carved with reliefs of flowers and figures, and windows
The lattice is hollowed out with marble and inlaid with various gems. It is dazzling and magnificent. For hundreds of years, the Red Fort has been through wars and catastrophes. Now the one that survives is the Jinjian Palace. This is a temple with three open sides, with only the east wall. The walls were originally inlaid with gems and made into colorful patterns. The National + in 1857. The temple built with white marble is called the Shumi Palace. It is the most luxurious building in the Red Fort and is known as the "worldly paradise". There are also buildings such as the imperial bathroom, the king's private room, the pearl mosque, and pavilions, which are well protected.
The old fort ruins and Ashoka stone pillars built by the Mauryan Dynasty have been here for 2000 years. The Kutabuta, built in the 13th century, has a unique style and beautiful shape. The diameter of the tower base is about 14 meters, and the tower is divided into 5. The first three layers are all made of red sand and gravel, and each layer has raised and erect decorative folds on the outside. The first layer is a corner and a semicircle, the second layer is a semicircle, and the third layer is a corner. The tower body of the highest two layers is all made of white marble.
The large iron pillar standing in the southeast of Delhi
An ancient metallurgy miracle, Iron Column High School, has a history of 1,500 years, and is allowed to blow by the wind. Its components include carbon, silicon, phosphorus, etc., which shows that the ancient Indian people mastered advanced smelting and casting technology before 1,500. This can be regarded as an achievement in the history of metallurgy.
Near the Delhi Palace, there is a largest mosque in India, the Jami Mosque. It is also a famous historical site in Delhi. From a distance, three curved white domes and two towering minarets have a respectable image and majesty.
Among the many cultural relics and monuments, there are the tombs of Humayun, the second emperor of Mughal in the southeast of New Delhi, and the remains of the Kuwa-Ur-Islamic mosque in the southern suburbs of the city, etc.
If Old Delhi shows India's long history and splendid ancient culture, New Delhi is the shadow of India's modern era of poverty and independence. New Delhi was built one after another in the wilderness south of Old Delhi in 1911. It is now the political center of India, and all departments of the Indian central government are located here. New Delhi is a garden city in green, with wide and neat streets and flower beds and meadows everywhere. It is no less than some famous people in the world. On the hill of Donsina in the city center, there is a luxurious and majestic palace.
The hall, originally named Victoria Palace, is now the Presidential Palace of India. The Presidential Palace is grand in scale, with gorgeous halls such as the Audience Hall, Banquet Hall, Library, etc., as well as countless fountain pools, pavilions and corridors. The Parliament Building in the northeast of the small mountain and the Indian Gate in Princes Park are also magnificent buildings. From the Presidential Palace to the Indian Gate, there are many government agencies, such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of National Defense, etc. There are also dozens of magnificent royal palaces. The environment here is beautiful, with lush green trees, green grass, flowers all year round, quiet and elegant.
The terrain of Delhi is very good, backed by the Himalayas, and is very far away from several major ports. In the old Chinese saying, it is a place of victory. If you attack by land from South Asia, it will be full of miasma in the forests east of India and you will not be able to deploy troops at all. If you attack by sea, the fleets arranged in the front line such as Behampur are able to cooperate with shore defense to resist large-scale maritime attacks.
According to the normal offensive method, it is only possible to hit the heart of India - Delhi. Before this, most of India would be turned into ruins, which was exactly what Zhao Gang wanted to avoid. He wanted to harvest the fruits of India, rather than harvesting a scorched earth. The tragic storm of World War II has shown that if the war lasts for a long time, there is no difference between the winner and the loser.
Only by quickly ending the regional war and launching a surprise attack by hitting the enemy's center can China gain the greatest benefits. Therefore, Zhao Gang repeatedly insisted on attacking India from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau for this purpose. As long as the breakthrough is successful, Delhi will be directly exposed to the iron hoof of the Chinese army.
At the same time, a team of unknown soldiers had quietly boarded the plane. After nearly three years of training, the first special forces finally had the opportunity to take action on their own.
In order to wait for this day, the special forces conducted very rigorous training, forced military training in bad weather, climbing cliffs on dangerous slopes, and survival training in difficult wild areas are common. Most of them have unique skills, such as accurately targeting a car with a speed of 50 kilometers per hour, accurately dropping grenades into the car's window from 30 meters away, etc.
This is a real army of battles. All the soldiers are directly selected from the combat troops, and their combat skills are not inferior to those of agile men. In the execution of certain special tasks, they are even more competent than male comrades. After a dispute, Zhao Gang had to give in and let the men and women's mixed special forces participate in the surprise attack on the Indian capital.
All members of the Chinese special forces can take air transport planes and land on helicopters. The parachutes can take off from the ground and attack targets dozens of kilometers away. In addition, they also practice unique combat skills such as armed ferry and frogman submarines. Therefore, they are also called "land tigers, sea dragons, and air falcons", and are well-deserved "three-amil magic weapons".
Chinese special forces have very powerful firepower equipment. In addition to being equipped with advanced light weapons and protective equipment, such as "Kevlar" helmet, Kbu88 sniper rifle, 156.2mm gun family, and some little-known special firearms. In addition, they are also equipped with anti-tank missiles, artillery, individual rockets, flamethrowers, and other heavy individual weapons. Some of the Black Crow armed service helicopters carried by the special forces can also carry missiles, rockets, bombs, and large-caliber machine guns, and the firepower is self-evident.
