After the collapse of the Sino-Indian military-level meeting, India began to frequently create incidents in the highland areas. First, the Indian soldiers crossed the line of actual control on the Sino-Indian border to obstruct the normal patrol of our army, and then deployed M777 howitzers, MiG-29s and other weapons and equipment to the forward positions. In addition, Indian politicians have also cooperated with the actions of the Indian army, and even despite China's strong opposition, they have openly visited southern Tibet and put forward a posture of increasing confrontation with China.
According to Indian media reports, Indian troops have quickly assembled on the China-India border in recent days and held joint military exercises in the Ladakh region. The main subject of the exercise was to transport more than 200 special soldiers and transportation equipment, missile detachments and other heavy materiel to the "airborne zone" of the area, destroy enemy tanks and helicopter gunships, and "hold" the designated area for two days. At the same time, the exercise also appeared "friendly helicopter gunships, and cooperate with the Indian ground infantry to achieve a favorable situation in a short period of time." Indian media also said that the exercise was another "clear signal" sent by India to China after test firing the Agni-5 missile to ensure the deterrent capability of the Indian army.
It is reported that the airborne exercise is the largest joint military exercise held between China and India since the armed conflict in the border area last June. Indian military sources said that the location of the military exercise was selected in the plateau area, which is a very big test for Indian soldiers, but the closer the exercise is to actual combat, the more it can enhance the combat effectiveness of officers and soldiers. Although India does not specify the specific identity of "friendly forces", considering that India and the US military held joint military exercises before, the so-called "friendly forces" most likely refer to the US military. In mid-last month, Indian troops traveled to a military base in Anchorage, Alaska, to hold a joint military exercise with the U.S. military code-named "Prepare for War, which lasted for half a month. According to the Indian side, this joint military exercise shows that the mutual trust between the United States and India has reached a new height, which is conducive to improving the coordinated combat capability of the two armies in the alpine mountains.
The analysis believes that under the co-optation of the United States, India has become more and more tough on China on the territorial issue. At the same time, because China and India have had wars in history, India has always wanted to shame through wars. Therefore, India continues to strengthen its military deployment in the China-India border area and strengthen military exercises against China. In addition, the Indian army has repeatedly provoked incidents at the border, and even ignored the signals released by the Chinese side to ease the tension on many occasions, blindly hyping and playing up the "China threat theory" and inciting hostility toward China in India. Therefore, at the Sino-Indian meeting, the Indian lion opened his mouth and made unrealistic and unreasonable demands on China, hoping to obtain more land through negotiations.
However, India has completely overestimated its own strength and underestimated China's determination to defend its territorial sovereignty. At present, although India has deployed Su-30 fighters in the border areas, and even the newly introduced "Rafale" fighters, these fighters are multi-functional fighters, and air superiority operations are not their specialty. China not only has the J-20 stealth fighter, but also the J-16 fighter, and India is clearly at a disadvantage in seizing air supremacy. It is good for China to be able to resolve the border issue through negotiations, but we will never succumb to any force of intimidation and blackmail.
According to India Today, after the Galwan Valley clashes in June last year, the Indian military top brass urgently deployed tens of thousands of troops to the Sino-Indian border without resolving the problem of late supply. Because the problem of infrastructure construction has not yet been solved, the exercise equipment, ammunition, food, medicine, fuel used by the Indian army are not allowed to use the front-line inventory, and once the conflict breaks out, the limited inventory will be "rapidly consumed", so the Indian army is increasingly relying on air transportation and completing combat tasks through airborne troops. The more important problem is that the United States and India have not signed an alliance treaty, and in wartime, in addition to being able to provide arms to India, it is impossible to appear on the battlefield, so adding "friendly forces" to the exercise is more like whistling at night to embolden themselves.
The rapid assembly of the Indian army on the Sino-Indian border has also attracted the attention of many media, and some foreign media program hosts can't help but laugh and cry when talking about India. The foreign media host said that in 1962, India wanted to invade the Chinese border, and as a result, it turned out to be a "capital defense war", and the host could not help but laugh and laughed to tears. I think that in those days, India continued to provoke on the border and provoke war. But what is surprising is that after only 32 days of fighting, the Indian troops were defeated and defeated, so that later, when the Indian army faced the PLA, it had to gather more than 10 times more troops than the PLA to be able to feel a little at ease. It is not difficult to see how strong the PLA's deterrent effect on the Indian army is. However, with the passage of time, the Indian army seems to have healed its scars and forgot the pain, and began to be restless again, and even tried to shame through force. In this regard, we must make our position clear: we can talk about it, fight if we want, and accompany it to the end!
