Chapter 545 Dongba

The east side of India! All Pakistanis will never forget that there is another country to the east of India. This country used to be called East Pakistan, that is, East Pakistan!

All of this has to start with the legacy of that year. In history, in 1947, Britain ended its colonial rule in India. According to the "Mountbatten Plan", it implemented the India-Pakistan partition policy and divided British India into India. and Pakistan. At the same time, Bangladesh under Indian control was also divided into two parts. West Bengal was merged into India, while East Bengal chose to join Pakistan and became an enclave not adjacent to Pakistan. What is now Pakistan was also called West Pakistan at that time.

The existence of East Pakistan mainly plays a strategic role. Every time there is a war between India and Pakistan, Pakistan can attack India on two fronts. At least East Pakistan can contain a large number of India's military strength, so that India does not dare to use all its troops. They are all arranged on the western front. Therefore, India also hates Dongba deeply.

Unfortunately, all this ended during the Third Indo-Pakistani War. Due to Pakistan at that time, the people of East Pakistan had always lived in poverty. This led to the drift away from West Pakistan. , East Pakistan’s independent elements rented Jibu Lakh to launch a non-cooperation movement in East Pakistan and announced the establishment of Bangladesh, and Naturally, Pakistan was not reconciled to the division of this land and began to suppress the independent elements, while India began to support the independent elements and even directly sent troops. As a result, the third India-Pakistan War broke out, and the result of the war was that East Pakistan For the sake of Bangladesh's independence, India occupied approximately 2,240 square kilometers of Pakistan's territory.

After the war, although Bangladesh gained independence with the help of India, it did not turn out as Nehru imagined. Into the arms of India, Bangladesh has always had an alienated relationship with India due to ideological issues.

This is a very tragic page in the history of Pakistan. Pakistan has almost always been a loser in every Indo-Pak war. At the beginning, old Arslan also left the army and went to the United States because he was deeply disappointed with that war, intending to spend the rest of his life there. He never imagined that Pakistan would be what it is today. Just now, history is already taking a big turn! Under the leadership of Mhammad, Pakistan has prospered and its comprehensive national strength has been greatly improved. Now, in every war, Pakistan fights against India.

Under this circumstance, Mhamad finally began to look east. After more than 20 years of division, it was time for Pakistan to regain its original territory!

Mhamad just said the east side. Everyone's hearts were moved. At this time, Pakistan has gained strength and can regain East Pakistan!

"With the easy end of the U.S. war in Panama, the United States will be free to continue supporting India. India has received advanced weapons such as fighter jets and tanks from the United States, and its self-confidence has re-expanded, and it will continue to suppress rebellions in the princely states." Mhamad said: "Although they have recognized the independence of Hyderabad, it is definitely not long-term. They will definitely suppress it again. We must find new disputes for India, otherwise. Let Hyderabad survive the establishment of the state. In the early days, it also set an example for other kingdoms.”

Against India, use force when necessary and engage in conspiracy sometimes. A two-pronged approach will achieve the best results.

Now, it's time to engage in conspiracy.

"Then do we need to directly send troops to East Pakistan?" Mushaaf said: "Our current navy is enough to safeguard our rights and interests in the Indian Ocean. We can land in East Pakistan."

Mhammad shook his head: "The Dongba people will not welcome us."

This was said very frankly. Others felt very uncomfortable. At first, they were one country, but now, although Dongba doesn't like Indians. I don’t like Pakistan either, and I will never think of rejoining Pakistan. After all, it's better to be in charge of one's own business than to have someone above you.

We were once compatriots, but we had a war with each other. This is a pain in the hearts of almost all Pakistanis.

"We must first provoke a conflict between East Pakistan and India." Old Arslan said: "Cause a war between India and East Pakistan, so that East Pakistan will ask us for help when it is helpless. And we send troops, There can be additional conditions.”

In the past few years, old Arslan has watched the Pakistan Air Force become stronger day by day, and he is also in high spirits. At the same time, he thinks about the problem completely from Pakistan's perspective, and can better guess what Mhamad is thinking.

Mhammad nodded: "Yes, that's what I mean. We must first create friction and disputes between East Pakistan and India, and escalate the conflict. Then the two sides will fight. If East Pakistan cannot hold on, it will naturally turn to India." We ask for help. When the time comes, we can negotiate terms. Even if Dongba does not rejoin us, we must make Dongba agree to station troops in Dongba. "

East Pakistan's economic foundation is weak, resources are scarce, productivity levels are backward, and the overall quality of the population is low. Eighty percent of the population is engaged in agricultural production. The country's economic pillar is rice. It needs minerals but not minerals, and it needs energy but not energy. Most of the land is plains with an altitude of about 12 meters. If the sea water rises by one meter, 10% of the country's land will disappear.

Moreover, this country is plagued by natural disasters. The warm and humid air currents from the Indian Ocean, which carry a lot of water vapor, are blocked by the high Himalayas in northern Bangladesh as they move northward, resulting in a lot of rainfall here, leading to frequent tropical storms in summer and flooding every year. A relatively large flood occurred in 1970, which caused at least 300,000 deaths. This is a country with many disasters. In normal years, tens of thousands of people are homeless. Once a disaster occurs, this number can reach hundreds of thousands. When the number of people affected is the highest, it even reaches more than 9 million. It is unfortunate to live in such a country, and it is like this every year. Disasters, reconstruction, and disasters again are almost a dead cycle. Therefore, although this country has a strong population base, which has almost reached over 100 million in later generations, it has no international influence.

Such a country really has no potential.

Now, Pakistan's national economy is growing rapidly. If the people of East Pakistan are sensible and willing to rejoin Pakistan, then Muhammad does not mind investing money to change the status quo there and develop the local economy. With abundant human resources, it is still possible to engage in some labor-intensive enterprises. However, if the East Pakistanis are unwilling, Muhammad will not force them. As long as they can permanently station troops in East Pakistan, it will be like hanging a sword over the heads of the Indians, and the Indians will be trapped in a two-front war again.

"How should we create friction?" Mushaaf asked Muhammad.

"Leave this to Osama." Muhammad said: "Osama has been in India now, he will definitely find a way. In short, the bigger the conflict, the better, we must let the war in the east of India ignite!"

In Muhammad's hands, Osama has more and more room to play, and almost all the wet work is left to Osama. This guy is born to cause destruction and unrest.

Due to the limited national strength of Bangladesh, under normal circumstances, when there is a dispute, it also appeals to the United Nations, just like a docile little sheep, and rarely has a real armed conflict. The country is poor and can't afford to fight.

Therefore, the incident must be made bigger, the bigger the better! Muhammad did not regard this country as his brother. It was these brothers who stabbed him in the back, which led to the division of Pakistan and the loss of Pakistan's territory in the third Indo-Pakistani war.

With Muhammad's resounding words, the troubles of the Indians are coming again.

When Muhammad's order was passed to Osama, Osama's eyes suddenly lit up. It was too easy to provoke Bangladesh and India! There are still many enclave issues between the two countries that have not been resolved!

Enclave, a special human geography phenomenon, refers to land that belongs to a certain administrative region but is not adjacent to the region. Simply put, a certain administrative subject owns an enclave, but it cannot reach the place through its own administrative region. It can only "fly" through the territories of other administrative subjects to reach its own enclave.

And now, this is the situation between India and Bangladesh. Some sections of the border between the two countries are jagged and there are many enclaves. The dense enclaves between the two countries are concentrated in the northernmost part of Bangladesh and the border of India's Darjeeling region. India has 106 enclaves in Bangladesh, and Bangladesh has 92 enclaves in India. 102 of India's 106 enclaves are in Bangladesh, 3 of which are in Bangladesh's enclaves in India, which are more special enclaves within enclaves, and 1 of the most bizarre is an enclave within an enclave, which is also unique in the world. 71 of Bangladesh's 92 enclaves are in India, and 21 are in India's enclaves in Bangladesh, with a total area of ​​47.7 square kilometers. The two countries have a total of 198 enclaves, plus the main border, a total of 199 sections of the border. These enclaves have led to chaos in the border area.

In these places, in fact, neither India nor Bangladesh can effectively manage them. They are no-man's land and are most likely to breed problems. If someone deliberately provokes them, the conflict will easily intensify.

Osama immediately thought of using the enclave to make a fuss, and also thought of which force to use. (To be continued ~^~)
