Old Qin's tone instantly became agitated, "Even if India has the backing of China, it's not a reason for them to provoke us at will! What's most infuriating is that China actually sent a special envoy to persuade us to 'be more magnanimous' and permanently cede those three border areas, totaling 13 square kilometers, to India. This is simply outrageous!"

Old Qin's voice trembled slightly with anger: "Therefore, this battle must be fought, and it must be fought brilliantly! Not only must we defeat them until they submit, but we must also make them clearly state their territorial ownership in black and white before the whole world! This battle is not only to make an example of them, but also to vindicate our Xia Kingdom and tell the world that not an inch of Xia Kingdom's land can be lost!"

Zhou Weiguo nodded secretly. It seemed that Qin Lao and the others were really angered by the Indians' shady tactics and were finally going to take drastic measures.

He strongly agreed with Qin Lao's ideas, especially regarding the border war that should have taken place in 1962. He understood the key point better than anyone else: the Indian army seemed to have a large number of troops, but in reality, they were strong on the outside but weak on the inside. They were stubborn and cowardly. They would never know respect unless they were beaten hard.

Thinking of the well-trained special forces soldiers in the space, Zhou Weiguo's eyes suddenly lit up, and a bold plan quickly took shape in his mind.

He gripped the communicator tightly, his tone instantly turning cold and resolute.

"Elder Qin, I propose that my men launch a decapitation strike directly against India's command center, a strike that will shake the entire world!"

Upon hearing this, Elder Qin was taken aback at first, then immediately and firmly refused without hesitation: "For the sake of the country, no! How can we resort to decapitation strikes so easily in wars between nations? It would give the world pause for criticism, it's absolutely inappropriate!"

"More importantly, what you're doing is far too dangerous!"

Old Qin's tone was full of unwavering concern, "How could we let your men be in such a dangerous situation? We have meticulously planned this battle; the artillery formations are all in place. We will surely sweep through them like a whirlwind and make these Indians beg for mercy!"

Zhou Weiguo didn't rush to refute, but patiently explained: "Old Qin, listen to me. If this battle is to truly achieve the effect of 'striking a blow to prevent a hundred blows,' conventional attacks are not shocking enough. My special forces are all top experts. In terms of infiltration, raids, and targeted elimination, no team in the world can compare to them."

He slowed his speech, addressing Qin Lao's concerns one by one: "You don't need to worry about the safety of my men. In the early stages, I'll at most have them quietly remove a few spies. We'll only begin our operation under the cover of the chaos of the battlefield after the main force breaks through the Indian front lines and achieves a phased victory. At that time, I will only be in command from the rear and will not show myself."

"Our goal is to make an example of them, but most of the Indian troops are all talk and no action; when it comes to a real fight, they run away faster than anyone else."

Zhou Weiguo's voice carried a hint of sarcasm, "I'm afraid that before the main force can form an encirclement, their command will have already fled. Even if they occupy the land, it won't have the desired deterrent effect."

"We must take this opportunity to teach them a lesson they won't forget, to make them never dare to raise their voices in front of us again, to make them cower before the Xia Kingdom's military flag like mice before a cat! And a decapitation strike is the fastest and most effective way to nip their arrogance in the bud!"

There was a long silence on the other end of the communicator. Zhou Weiguo could clearly hear Qin Lao's heavy breathing, as he was obviously weighing the pros and cons repeatedly.

After a full half minute, Old Qin finally spoke, his tone tinged with a hint of compromise: "You mean, you're only targeting India's military command center?"

"Absolutely correct!"

Zhou Weiguo immediately responded, "We only attack military targets, such as their forward command posts and artillery positions. Moreover, we will collect complete evidence in advance so that the whole world knows that we are attacking the culprits who started the war. This way, we will not give them any grounds for criticism, but will still achieve a deterrent effect."

Old Qin paused again, and then he could faintly hear a low conversation coming from the receiver, clearly a discussion between him and the person next to him.

After a moment, Elder Qin's tone became extremely solemn: "For the sake of the country, Elder Long and I agree to your plan in principle, but there are two strict conditions. First, your men must strictly abide by battlefield discipline and absolutely must not harm civilians, otherwise the plan will be terminated immediately. Second, you must ensure your own safety and are not allowed to take any risks without authorization."

"Don't worry!"

Zhou Weiguo was overjoyed and immediately assured him, "I can fulfill both of these conditions! I'll go and arrange the follow-up matters now."

"Good!" Old Qin's voice finally carried a hint of confidence. "The main force will launch the general offensive in 48 hours. Your decapitation strike can begin simultaneously. Remember, our goal is not to occupy Indian territory, but to make them fully acknowledge our territorial sovereignty, so they will never dare to cross that line again!"

After hanging up the call, Zhou Weiguo immediately began making arrangements.

three days later

In a square in the Indian capital, a large crowd of civilians gathered, along with many foreign journalists of various skin colors holding cameras.

On the high platform, the Indian manager, his face full of indignation, was shouting at the top of his lungs into the microphone.

"People of India! Today, we are forced to stand at the crossroads of fate! That self-proclaimed peaceful Eastern power has finally torn off its mask of hypocrisy and launched a naked invasion of our border with bayonets!"

He waved his fist, his emotions escalating: "Their army has crossed the Mamahon Line, trampling on our sacred territory, yet they shamelessly claim it's self-defense! Beneath the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas, their soldiers pounced on our outposts like a pack of wolves, mowing down unarmed civilians with machine guns!"

"They shout for peace, yet they shoot bullets at our loved ones! Is this 'defense'? This is a barbaric trampling on Indian sovereignty and a mad provocation against peace in Asia! We once believed they were friends, but their goodwill was nothing but a trap!"

"Now, they have proven with their actions that a powerful Xia Kingdom will always be an expansionist Xia Kingdom! Their ambitions will not stop at the border, but will turn all of India into their vassal state! People of India, we can no longer remain silent! Let us take up arms, defend our homeland, and let the world know: India will never succumb to the iron heel of invaders!"

After the speech, the steward returned to the mansion surrounded by the crowd.

He first picked up the pure gold teacup and poured half a cup of water before slamming his fist on the table in a fit of rage and demanding, "Damn it, what's going on at the front? How dare those Xia people? I only occupied a little over 100,000 square kilometers of their territory, and they actually dared to start a war!"

The staff officer beside him looked distressed and quickly stepped forward to remind him, "Chief, have you forgotten? You were the one who held the press conference first and announced the declaration of war against Xia."

The steward's face instantly fell, but he remained defiant: "Nonsense! These ignorant Xia people actually dared to attack my territory and outposts! I declared war on them, and they dared to attack? I dare to drink the Ganges River, do they dare?"
