Chapter 269: Grain Famine

"The defending army in Gilgit should currently be around ten thousand men, plus there are approximately thirty thousand civilians who have also arrived in Gilgit, making it very crowded with significant logistics pressure."

Chen Wei pointed on the map and said, "On the Kashmir front, the Pakistani Army and Sanitation Workers are still engaged in ongoing combat. However, the Pakistani forces were already at a disadvantage and now, being encircled and cut off, their logistics on the Kashmir front have been severed. With no way for the front-line troops to return aid and Gilgit unable to break out from the rear, your arrival has already had a decisive impact on the entire battle situation. I predict that after the encirclement is breached, the Sanitation Workers on the western front will choose to retreat!"

The situation had changed; though the Sanitation Workers still held an advantage in troop strength, their logistics were a significant issue too.
