v2 Chapter 1423: landing in bangladesh

Twenty nautical miles away, the five dispatched battleships with the Vanguard as the core are at the forefront. Although the battleships are products of the previous era, the King George V-class battleships are typical treaty battleships, which can only be said to be quite satisfactory. .

But it is undeniable that even in the 1970s, few countries had the strength to build it.

In front of the United States and the Soviet Union, battleships are a representative of backwardness, but in front of other countries, the products of the previous era can still dominate. Behind the battleship formation is the Eagle-class aircraft carrier strike group, and around this aircraft carrier is a fleet of anti-aircraft and anti-submarine fleets.

The total tonnage of these big guys alone is close to 300,000 tons, which is five times that of the entire Indian Navy. At this time, these steel behemoths are squatting in the Bay of Bengal, watching the idlers coming out of the mouth of the Ganges River.

India's aircraft carrier INS Vikrant, the Colossus-class Hercules that Britain sold to India, has returned to Calcutta.

Even if the aircraft carrier Vikrant was there, it would not be able to confront such a powerful enemy. The Indian military, which had just finished fighting in Bangladesh, did not hesitate to report the news of the British fleet appearing in the open sea to New Delhi.

Since independence, what India is most worried about is the comeback of the British. It was only ten years ago that it focused on a certain big country, but it did not expect that this time the Royal Navy really came again.

Even with an old-fashioned battleship and an Eagle-class aircraft carrier that is far inferior to American carrier-based aircraft, I am as invincible as Great Britain...

The capital of Pakistan, Ali Bhutto, who has just taken over the regime from the military, is in a state of desperation at this time. I have to say that the mess left by the military government is really bad.

It can be said that Bhutto took office at a time when Pakistan was in crisis. Externally, India occupied 5,000 square miles of land in West Pakistan, and East Pakistani soldiers were captured and imprisoned in India. The state of war between India and Pakistan has not yet ended; internally, the economy has been severely damaged, industrial and agricultural production has come to a standstill, and there is chaos .

Ali Bhutto was born in a typical upper-class elite family during the colonial period. He was qualified as a lawyer in the UK. Of course he knew about the UK. After finishing his business, he asked the guards to let in the British commissioner, William, the High Commissioner to Pakistan.

But, David, who was going to return home from Sikkim, also met the Alibuto that his father said.

David originally wanted to go back to London to bridge the tension between his parents, but he was given a new task by the supreme authority that gave birth to a son for nothing. Be honest about what Britain thinks.

What a chance to gain qualifications, don't use it in vain, it will definitely be beneficial to the future.

"Rahman can't let go now, President Bhutto, this time we are here to help Pakistan. Although the war is over, the consequences of the war are far from over."

High Commissioner William directly stated his intentions, "There is no doubt that Pakistan has suffered a disastrous defeat in this India-Pakistan war. Half of the tax revenue and foreign exchange are created by East Pakistan. Losing East Pakistan is fatal to Pakistan. But Britain can find a way to make Pakistan's losses Smaller."

"The Royal Pacific Fleet is just off the coast of Dhaka. Now we need a reason to enter Bangladesh, and this reason lies with Rahman. The explanation for other countries is to guard against India's ambition to annex Bangladesh." David followed the old man's instructions. The core instructions issued chimed in, "Obviously, Britain is more qualified than India to bring Bangladesh on the right track."

David didn’t know until he arrived in Pakistan and contacted his father, who is the supreme authority, that the old man had started to design the urban construction of Dhaka. He really wanted to ask, had he been to Dhaka, and did he know how many people there were there?

"The release of Rahman can be released to us. Britain will definitely stay Rahman in Dhaka. I believe that from a religious point of view, Rahman certainly does not want Bangladesh after independence to become India's The vassals, it is England that can solve the problem."

When William said this, he asked Ali Bhutto, "President Bhutto, I think this choice is not difficult in front of India and Britain."

Ali Bhutto is definitely unwilling to cooperate with the former colonists, but if there are Indian factors, it is not something that cannot be considered. With the power of Pakistan, it is definitely impossible to take Dongba back. Losing Dongba has become a foregone conclusion. Since Britain is willing to come forward to resolve this matter, of course he will not object.

"Gentlemen, do you want to see Rahman now?" Ali Bhutto asked after a short thought.

"Of course this is the best." William and David looked at each other and nodded, "Britain is willing to play a good role in the development of the relationship between the new Bangladesh and Pakistan."

At this moment, the busiest department in Whitehall is undoubtedly the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Since the Royal Pacific Fleet blocked the mouth of the Ganges, the radios of China, the Soviet Union, the United States, India and Pakistan have stirred up the Ministry of Foreign Affairs into a pot of porridge.

It's messed up, the whole world is in chaos because of the actions of the United Kingdom, and no one thought that the confrontation in the Bay of Bengal, which had just cooled down, heated up again because of the appearance of the British Royal Navy.

"Britain should enter Bangladesh to maintain local stability in Bangladesh." Foreign Secretary Patrick replied decisively to the swarming media, "Although the war is over, the pain caused by the war is far from over. Many countries in the Commonwealth want the UK to help poor Bangladeshis and restore peace and prosperity."

While Foreign Secretary Patrick was talking nonsense, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was responding to the stakeholders involved one by one, saying to a certain major country, "Britain's intervention is conducive to the balance of the situation in South Asia, and preventing India from annexing Bangladesh is also beneficial to you."

The reply to the Soviet Union stated, "Britain has no intention of provoking trouble, otherwise it will be dispatched together with the US task force during the confrontation in the Bay of Bengal. The action at this time is purely for peaceful purposes."

The answer to the United States emphasized the special relationship between Britain and the United States, and the rest of the content was similar to what was said to a certain big country.

As for Pakistan, it is a routine notification. What should be said has been conveyed clearly through the High Commissioner and Hao Daer.

For India, the United Kingdom shouted that human rights are higher than sovereignty and guaranteed the independence of Bangladesh. At the same time, starting from its status of strength, it reminded India that it violated the agreement signed between India's independence and the United Kingdom, that is, India's imports and exports must be calculated in pounds, and rubles are exchanged for rupees. His behavior has damaged the traditional relationship between the two countries.

Alan Wilson turned off the TV, and took the telegram sent by David, "Your good son will be back soon, and he still asked me in the telegram if I have been to Dhaka, okay, it seems that I, an official of British India, Do you still want to accept the professional evaluation of your own son?"

"He's just asking, it's not that he doesn't believe in your ability." Knowing that her son is about to return to China, Vivien Leigh didn't lose her temper with men of the same status as her husband, and whispered aggrievedly, "You should also tell me that South Asia is at war. , you just let him pass like this, as if he wasn't your son."

"Aren't you aggrieved to run around for the national interest?" Alan Wilson straightened his face and proudly puffed out his chest, "If one day the British Empire needs me to sacrifice, I will... well!"

The declaration that he would go through fire and water without hesitation was directly covered by the palm of the Great Britain Treasure.

Then the TV broadcast an important news, "The High Commissioner to Pakistan and Pakistani President Ali Bhutto discussed the Bangladesh issue. After the high commissioner's candid communication, President Ali Bhutto announced the release of the Awami League leader Rahman. The following is Rahman Mann's statement."

"The new Bangladesh will be a prosperous and peaceful country. We attach great importance to the feelings of the United Kingdom. Bangladesh also needs the help of the United Kingdom to lead us out of the quagmire..."

Rahman's scriptures were spread all over the world through British public opinion, and it was also the best commentary on this operation for the Royal Navy off the coast of Dhaka.

This time the Royal Navy is dispatched to pick peaches down the mountain. In fact, everyone knows it clearly. The United States understands it, a certain big country understands it, and the Soviet Union understands it, let alone the two countries involved in Pakistan and India. But everyone understands it, but It must also be admitted that this fleeting opportunity was seized by the United Kingdom, and the knife was cleanly executed.

Even Indira Gandhi wanted to vent his anger by throwing things at the prime minister's office, but he had to admit that this colonial suzerain, who usually pretended to be dead, suddenly threw a knife and taught India another lesson.

Less than 20 hours later, the British fleet from Malaya docked in Chittagong, and the Marine Corps holding the Mi Ziqi flag, as well as the Chinese and Malay troops, made the Mi Ziqi flag reappear in South Asia.

It took a long time for the British army to land. After all, the situation in Chittagong is not good. It was devastated by the Indian war before. When the British landing force set foot on this familiar land~lightnovelpub.net~ Some, Bangladeshis Watching all this from a distance, the landing soldiers who had already prepared candy had a good experience of the military and civilian fish and water.

India itself is not much richer than Bangladesh, and it has to rely on the benefits of the Soviet Union. How can it benefit Bangladesh in turn? It would be nice not to steal things in Bangladesh, but Britain is different, not to mention that the sugar industry in Malaya is a pillar industry, and spreading some candy is not a problem at all.

During the inquiry in the House of Commons, Harold Wilson made a firm promise, "Britain will definitely guarantee the independence and integrity of Bangladesh, and pull this country, which has been affected by the largest war since the war, out of the quagmire. This is what the British Empire should have. leadership."

The House of Commons applauded, and even the Conservative Party did not flinch at this time. They also admitted that this time the operation was beautiful, and Prime Minister Wilson did a good job.

"A good fighter has no great achievements, you know?" Alan Wilson, who had already shot to another place, looked at the BBC, and attributed all the credit to himself in front of Monroe.

Maybe India is in the most complicated mood right now, but so what? Why not pull out the Vikrant aircraft carrier and fight the Royal Navy. If you don't dare, don't say anything.
