The sudden blow completely disrupted Krusha's arrangements.

After eight o'clock, Krusha entered the underground command center accompanied by guards, and other senior government officials were also evacuated.

Now, the problem facing Krusha is not when to announce a ceasefire, but whether to announce a ceasefire.

China's crackdown has exceeded the scope of conventional wars and pushed the war to a new height, and India will never be able to swallow its anger.

Even Krusha felt that an appropriate counterattack was necessary, and a strategic counterattack.

However, before counterattacking, we must understand the situation of the troops, that is, what degree of counterattack can be carried out, and whether China's war ambitions can be curbed through counterattacks.

Krusha must be patient, otherwise the counterattack will not bring victory, but greater disaster.

Just as Krusha was waiting for the military's report, the Chinese Ministry of Defense first released the war report, claiming that in the early morning of the 31st, it destroyed India's strategic nuclear facilities, ballistic missile production and development bases, and several missile troops deployed in the frontier.

Now, the whole world was shocked.

China actually launched a comprehensive strategic strike against a recognized nuclear country, and claimed to disintegrate India's strategic nuclear power after the first round of strikes

You know, before that, even the United States did not have such courage.

Although the United States destroyed North Korea's strategic power in one fell swoop when the Second Korean War broke out, North Korea only had four nuclear warheads at most, and had not completed the miniaturization work and could not throw nuclear warheads with missiles, so it did not have the real strategic capabilities.

Compared with North Korea, India is a truly nuclear country and can carry out strategic revenge on China.

What China dares to attack India's strategic facilities under such circumstances certainly requires not only courage, but also absolute confidence in military power.

China is so confident, does India still have a chance to win?

In subsequent reports, some Western news media pointed out that the confidence of China's Ministry of Defense was a bit blind, because when the news was announced, the crackdown had just ended. Even if China used strategic reconnaissance satellites or even dispatched reconnaissance aircraft, it would not be possible to complete the results screening work in such a short time.

In other words, when the news was announced, the Chinese Ministry of Defense was not sure whether the bombing purpose had been achieved.

The actual situation is indeed the case. The news released by the Ministry of National Defense came from the General Staff, while Huang Zhibo only knew that the fighter planes carrying out the bombing mission had successfully dropped bombs. He was not sure whether the bomb was dropped accurately and whether the target was destroyed as planned, and whether it was necessary to carry out additional bombing.

However, for Huang Zhibo, this is not important.

The news was announced immediately, with only one purpose: to make the Indian Prime Minister hesitate in the decision to make a ceasefire and to gain opportunities for the second round of strikes.

More importantly, after the news is announced, China's strategic crackdown will not be restricted.

To be precise, when facing the threat of India's strategic retaliation, China has reason to use more weapons to ensure that India cannot conduct a strategic counterattack.

You should know that before this, the United States had already accused China of war stance.

As long as India has the possibility of strategic retaliation, the United States will not intervene, nor will it retaliate against China because of China's use of strategic strikes.

As a result, when the Ministry of Defense announced the news, the second round of crackdown began.

This time, it was not the air force or the navy that acted as the main force, but the second artillery, and the main strike weapon was medium-range ballistic missile equipped with conventional warheads.

In order to paralyze the Indian army, the second round of attacks mainly targeted the communications and command systems.

According to the subsequent battle report released by the Chinese Ministry of Defense, during this round of strikes lasting only half an hour, the Second Artillery used a total of 424 medium-range ballistic missiles with a range of 1,500 kilometers and 2,500 kilometers. Among them, 422 missiles hit the target, destroying more than 30 strategic facilities including the theater command center, the regional communication transit center, and the intelligence exchange and processing center.

Relatively speaking, the ballistic missile strikes more violently and more suddenly.

Although the Indian Air Force's anti-missile air defense forces played some role in intercepting incoming ballistic missiles, the results were not ideal. India claimed that it had shot down dozens of ballistic missiles, and perhaps only two were shot down.

The reason is very simple. In this round of attack, the Second Artillery first dealt with not the ground target, but the target in space.

In order to avoid getting into diplomatic troubles, the Ministry of Defense did not release relevant information on anti-satellite operations, but regarded anti-satellite operations as part of the Indian Army's command system.

At that time, among the first batch of missiles launched by the Second Artillery, there were more than a dozen anti-satellite missiles improved from ballistic missiles.

These missiles were launched first, and after destroying India's missile early warning satellites, other ballistic missiles were launched, otherwise the strike would take less than half an hour and would end in fifteen minutes.

Among the last batch of missiles launched, there are several anti-satellite missiles, specifically used to deal with Indian reconnaissance satellites.

In this round of attacks, the combat capability of the Second Artillery was fully reflected. Its attack capability of the integrated world was enough to make all military powers ashamed.

You know, even the US Air Force will find it difficult to strike so many strategic goals at the same time.

At nine o'clock, Krusha finally received a report from the military.

After two rounds of strikes, India's strategic command and communication systems were completely paralyzed, all strategic nuclear facilities were destroyed, and even the ballistic missile forces were severely damaged. According to information provided by the Indian Air Force, only four missile launchers fled at that time, and only two missiles on the launchers carried nuclear warheads.

That is to say, if India launches a strategic counterattack immediately, at most two nuclear warheads are available.

This time, you must not hesitate.

After completing the first round of bombing, the Chinese Air Force will definitely carry out the second round of bombing, searching for and blowing up all missile launchers that can still be activated.

If dragged on, the last two nuclear warheads are likely to be blown up.

The question is, what can two nuclear warheads do?

What makes Krusha even more unacceptable is that the "Firefire 1" missile equipped with these two nuclear warheads can reach the southwestern part of China at most. If it is launched in central India, it can only reach Kunming, and even the largest cities in southwestern part of China cannot reach.

India can only carry out a strategic counterattack once, and China's nuclear warheads can destroy all Indian cities.

In other words, if India launches a strategic nuclear counterattack, even if it does not hit China's cities and the nuclear warheads explode in the wilderness, China will take the opportunity to expand the scale of the attack. Even if China is more restrained and does not retaliate, it will also use conventional bombing to drive India back to the Stone Age.

Krusha had no doubts about this.

To make India go back fifty years, it only needs to blow up India's main industrial facilities. India is not an industrial country and does not have much industrial infrastructure. With the capabilities of the Chinese Air Force, it only takes one month at most. If the fleet is allowed to undergo a strategic blockade at the same time, it may take less than a month.

In one month, India will completely become a third-rate country.

What is the future for India in the ruins?

After careful consideration, Krusha knew very well that strategic revenge would definitely not benefit India, but would push India into the abyss.

Then, strategic revenge cannot be carried out, but tactical revenge should be carried out to attack China's military forces.

Now, the problem is very clear.

All fighter jets of the Chinese Air Force are deployed at home. If you take revenge on the Chinese Air Force, you have to attack China's mainland, which is strategic revenge.

Only by attacking the Chinese Navy can it be considered tactical revenge.

You should know that the Chinese fleet has entered the Bay of Bengal and has participated in combat operations against India. India has enough reason to attack the Chinese fleet.

Letting the nuclear warhead detonate over the Bay of Bengal is no longer considered strategic revenge.

After soliciting other people's opinions, Krusa issued an order at 9:50: Use the "Fire 1" ballistic missile to strike the Chinese fleet.

The question is, where is the Chinese fleet?

Although there is sufficient reason to believe that the Chinese fleet has entered the Bay of Bengal and has participated in previous strikes, as at least two J-25s were shot down in northeastern India, the Bay of Bengal is 2 million square kilometers and the Chinese fleet may operate in any waters.

If the Chinese fleet cannot be found, there is no question of attack operation.

Fortunately, Krusha didn't wait long.

At less than 11 o'clock, the Indian Navy received a message from a "Squid"-class submarine operating in the northern waters of the Bay of Bengal. The Chinese fleet was heading north at a speed of 30 knots about 350 kilometers south of the Ganges River estuary, and is expected to reach the Ganges River estuary in six hours.

Why did the Chinese fleet head north?

Krusha didn't think so much because the submarine provided more accurate information.

After the Prime Minister signed the combat plan for the strike operation, the Indian Air Force immediately launched an operation to prepare two missile launchers to launch ballistic missiles.

At this time, Mu Haoyang was dealing with the Indian submarine.

Because this "Squid" class submarine sailed at extremely low speeds and made full use of the seabed terrain, it was not discovered by the attack nuclear submarine that came out before it floated to the surface to send telegrams. It was not until the fleet intercepted the telegrams sent by the submarine that anti-submarine combat began.

Within five minutes, six escort warships each dispatched an anti-submarine helicopter.

The two aircraft carriers were not idle either, and each dispatched two anti-submarine helicopters.

Under the sea, two Type 097 attack nuclear submarines accompanied by the aircraft carrier also joined the battle and locked the Indian submarine with active attack sonar within ten minutes.

In order to avoid being attacked by submarines, the fleet maintained a navigation speed of thirty knots.

The anti-submarine warfare went very smoothly. Under the siege of eight helicopters and two attack nuclear submarines, the Indian submarine did not last for half an hour.

At 11:20, the anti-submarine warfare ended.

The Indian submarine was hit by at least four torpedoes, two of which were heavy torpedoes launched by attacking nuclear submarines, and eventually sank into the seabed more than 300 meters deep.

However, the fleet has been exposed, and Mu Haoyang must fight back at any time...
