Chapter 133 Firepower Platoon, ready for battle!
Chapter 133 Firepower Platoon, ready for battle!
"Just in time."
Wu Liuyi is more excited than Xie Chong. This stubborn person has a stronger desire to win.
He immediately reported again: "Calling Platoon Chen, a new situation has been discovered ahead, a car is rapidly approaching the center line, about 300 meters away.
It is most likely the Blues team, but the number of people is unclear at the moment. "
"Got it. Stay where you are and continue monitoring until we join you. Over."
Chen Jun gave instructions to the frontline team, and then said to Shi Jin and others: "Wu Liuyi and his men have discovered the enemy, they must be from the Red Third Company.
They thought the same as we did and wanted to control the center line first.
Since they have come to our door on their own initiative, we must not let this fish slip away. We must catch it first and chop off a good start.
You all follow me now. No one is allowed to act rashly without my order. Do you understand?"
"understand!"
Everyone in the reconnaissance squad answered in unison.
"it is good."
Chen Jun stood up and waved his hand, saying, "Let's go."
……
Confrontation Exercise Command.
The analyst in charge of the confrontation explanation took out two small flags and stuck them on the sand table, and explained in a loud voice: "The latest news from the front line of the director's office is that a squad of the Red Army has arrived at the center line of the confrontation area first.
According to the information provided by the Red Army before the confrontation, this squad was a sharp reconnaissance squad that had undergone synthetic transformation and was currently undertaking frontier reconnaissance missions.
Many members of the class participated in the division competition, and Chen Jun was in charge of the command.
Chen Jun, lieutenant rank, platoon leader of the first platoon of the seventh company, has outstanding personal abilities..."
The analyst introduced Chen Jun's personal resume and honors to the leaders present, in order to highlight Chen Jun's importance.
The chief of staff was naturally very familiar with Chen Jun.
During the competition at the Normal University, Chen Jun, as an all-around athlete with almost no blind spots, won an unprecedented nine consecutive victories.
Not only did it break the division record, it even broke the record of the entire army.
It would be hard for the division chief of staff not to be familiar with it.
At the beginning, he and the regiment chief of staff had the same idea. They both wanted to recruit Chen Jun, the emerging dark horse genius, to the division headquarters for intensive training.
Unfortunately, considering the background of Captain Wang and Gao Cheng, the idea was abandoned in the end.
The 702nd Regiment has been beaten and stood at attention for so many years, and finally it has produced an outstanding young group.
If they poached him by force, given Captain Wang's well-known stubborn temper, it might cause a big uproar within the division.
Upon learning that Chen Jun was personally leading the reconnaissance squad to attack, the chief of staff couldn't help but feel a little more expectant.
However, the analyst then continued to introduce that not only the Red Army had arrived, but the two main squads of the Blue Army's Red 3rd Company had also arrived near the center line.
The distance between the two sides is closing rapidly, and there is a high probability that the first battle of the military exercise will break out.
The chief of staff even raised his lips, unable to hold back his curiosity and said, "I am very much looking forward to the Red Army's reconnaissance squad encountering the Blue Army's two main squads.
How would the Red Army's reconnaissance squad handle a situation where the Red Army is facing an enemy twice its size, equipped with the latest infantry fighting vehicles and with stronger firepower and defense?
If a regular reconnaissance team encounters this situation, they will definitely observe secretly to obtain information, and then return with the intelligence.
However, the 7th Steel Company claims to be undergoing synthetic reform. If it still reacts like an ordinary reconnaissance squad, it will be a great disappointment.
There is no difference between them and regular troops, so why bother with synthetic transformation?
"The Red Army has no chance of survival as they are inferior to the enemy in firepower and manpower. All they can do is collect intelligence and run away," analyzed the staff officer from the division.
"If the Red Army reconnaissance squad gets scared away, then there will be nothing to see." The chief of staff laughed.
"Chief of Staff, since I dare to invite you here, then the Seventh Steel Company under my command will definitely perform differently, and the outcome will not disappoint you."
Despite the division leaders' pessimism, Regiment Commander Wang personally stood up for the 7th Steel Company.
"Well, since Captain Wang is so confident, let's wait and see what kind of tricks this so-called synthetic tactical reconnaissance squad will come up with and whether it will be a feast for our eyes."
The division chief of staff came to witness the event, not to find fault, so he did not spoil Captain Wang's fun.
Even deep down in his heart, he was looking forward to the performance of the 7th Steel Company to impress him, rather than making a wasted trip with no gain.
……
While the leaders were discussing, Chen Jun had already led the reconnaissance squad forward and arrived at a small hill on the left side of the center line.
At this time, the two armored infantry squads of the Red Third Company had also arrived to the right of the center line.
The distance between the two sides was less than a hundred meters.
At such a close distance, Chen Jun could clearly see that the two squads coming from the Red 86rd Company were both standard infantry fighting vehicle squads.
The configuration of a ten-man squad, plus rocket launchers, as well as the new infantry fighting vehicle's own defense and heavy firepower.
It can be said to be the strongest combat squad of our army at present!
The spearhead reconnaissance squad has given up the armored personnel carrier. Whether in terms of mobility or heavy firepower, it cannot compare with the infantry fighting vehicle squad.
Once discovered by the Blue Army in this situation, they will face a devastating blow.
Under the pursuit and attack of infantry fighting vehicles, the Red Army reconnaissance squad did not even have a chance to escape due to the unobstructed terrain of the Loess Plateau.
Synthesis is just an upgrade to tactical play, it cannot make a soldier a superman.
Fortunately, Chen Jun is not one of the high-ranking ones mentioned above.
He is not as fond of siege warfare as Gao Cheng. His mind is full of the concepts of special warfare and synthesis, which give him countless ways to deal with the situation at hand.
Seeing that the Third Red Company had no idea that it had been exposed, it began to adjust its positions and deploy its troops on the center line.
Chen Jun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, he already had a plan.
Synthetic forces are not only tactically flexible, but also more sophisticated and diversified in configuration, and most importantly, their firepower has been greatly improved.
Since we have an absolute advantage in firepower, we can easily win by making use of it.
In the blink of an eye.
Ten minutes passed.
"Pai Chen, when are we going to act? Do you want me to snipe a few of them first?"
Seeing that there was no movement after waiting for half a day, Chengcai, who was already eager to try, could not wait any longer and ran over with his polished Type 85.
The desire to express himself in his eyes had swelled to the brink of explosion.
"Yes, we have to act quickly. Before they can gain a firm foothold, we should hit them on the head with a club to show them how powerful we are." Gan Xiaoning echoed.
"You only know how to fight, but where's your brain? Did you listen to what Paige Chen said in class?" Wu Liuyi scolded.
"Remember, we are scouts now. Our mission is completely different from before. You have to change your mindset. Don't let Paige Chen teach you in vain."
Shi Jin did not scold like Wu Liuyi, but he also reminded everyone seriously.
Gan Xiaoning, who was used to the previous offensive style of play, and who had grown up because he wanted to perform so much that he forgot everything else, finally reacted after being reminded. They all knew that they had made a mistake again, and could only touch their heads and smile awkwardly to cover it up.
In fact, it’s no wonder that they are so impatient. They have been preparing for more than half a year and have worked so hard just to wait for this moment.
There were delicious fish and meat right in front of me, but I couldn’t even have a bite after being hungry for half a year.
I really feel uncomfortable!
"You must not only listen to the tactical concepts I teach you in class, and remember them, but also memorize them in your mind and fully absorb and integrate them, rather than just forgetting them after listening, and fighting a war by just following my instructions without having your own ideas.
Synthetic warfare is the trend of the future. What I teach you will benefit you for the rest of your life. I don’t want to see you make the same mistake a second time.”
Chen Jun's voice was not loud and his tone was not very harsh.
However, the majesty he exuded made Chengcai and others couldn't help but look serious, as if a warning bell had been rung in their minds.
It is impossible not to make any mistakes in the first actual combat simulation confrontation exercise.
So Chen Jun just gave a reminder and didn't insist on it.
After reminding the few people who made mistakes, Chen Jun's expression changed instantly, like a chameleon, showing his neat white teeth and smiling: "Although war requires speed, sometimes there is no need to rush.
If you lift the fishing rod too quickly, you may scare the fish away and fail to catch them all.
Now all we have to do is wait, just admire their hard work right here before our eyes, and wait for them to finish deploying their troops and getting into position. Isn't that quite interesting?
When the fish is calm and starts to rest, it will be the most relaxed time, then..."
Chen Jun smiled even more brightly, his eyes emitting an uneasiness that made Gan Xiaolin and others feel cold on their backs. He said, "Why don't we give them another big gift, so that they can experience what it means to die in obscurity? Wouldn't that be more interesting?"
"..."
Wu Liuyi, Chengcai and others were frightened and no one spoke for a while.
But at the same time.
Thinking of the great gift Chen Jun mentioned, everyone couldn't control themselves and began to feel waves of excitement from the bottom of their hearts.
……
Confrontation military exercise command center.
"What is this Red Army reconnaissance squad doing? Why did they discover the Blue Army's frontline troops, but neither reported the intelligence to the company headquarters immediately nor took any action? Even the other two platoons stayed where they were?"
The chief of staff stared at the small red flag on the sand table. He really couldn't understand what the 7th Steel Company was doing. He felt very annoyed because he couldn't guess.
As the "brain" of a division-level unit, the chief of staff who is proficient in various tactics is needed to assist the division commander in formulating combat plans during war.
I couldn't even figure out the war intentions of a company, no, it was just a grassroots squad.
Anyone would feel uncomfortable if this happened to them!
"Yes, this is a great opportunity, cooked duck meat is delivered to your mouth."
Another division training staff officer could not help but frown and said, "Two platoons of the Red Army are following behind. If we transfer them up, it will be easy to defeat the two squads of the Blue Army.
Now we are letting the Blue Army squad build up the defense. If we wait until the two Blue Army squads complete their defense, it will not be so easy to take them down by then.
Even if we mobilize both platoons, we will lose at least one squad if we want to take down the Blue Army.”
The staff officers and chief of staff from the division had never seen or understood combined warfare, and could not understand what tricks Chen Jun was playing.
I don't understand and I'm very upset.
The sharpshooting is not good!
Captain Wang has read Chen Jun's theory of combined warfare and is the only one in the entire division who has read the complete theory. He reads it whenever he has time.
Combined with his many years of combat experience, after all, he had not spent more than 20 years in the army in vain, as well as the equipment Gao Cheng took from the regiment, as well as the tactical platoon and firepower platoon in the rear, the distance from the center line.
Captain Wang seems to understand!
He became the only person in the entire command center who figured out what Chen Jun was up to.
Thinking about what would happen next, which overturned everyone's conventional understanding of the fighting style of grassroots company-level troops, made everyone present drop their jaws in shock.
Captain Wang's heart suddenly became hot. He knew what was going to happen but deliberately kept silent, and said, "Don't be anxious. The fun is about to begin."
"There's more fun to come? Haha."
The chief of staff became more and more confused the more he looked at it. He felt as if he had jumped into a ball of twine and had no idea what he was looking at.
But that doesn't matter.
Because the scene that is about to appear will really subvert his understanding of the grassroots company.
……
More than half an hour passed.
The two squads of the Red Third Company that got off the vehicle have found a strong terrain and built a defense line with armored vehicles as the core.
The attempt was to stop the Red Army troops that were trying to kill them at this critical location.
The third company commander also believed that his two main squads would have no problem building a defense line and holding the center line. Even if they couldn't hold it, they could evacuate at any time.
Can fight, defend, and run.
This is the advantage of mechanized armored infantry!
As one of the best main companies in the entire regiment and the first company to deploy the Type 86 infantry fighting vehicle squad, the Red Third Company is the strongest mechanized armored infantry company in the entire regiment.
none of them! !
However, just as the two squads of the third company completed their defense and felt that everything was ready, they were just waiting for the Red Army to arrive and give them a head-on blow.
Chen Jun, who had waited for nearly an hour, picked up the microphone of his personal radio at this time.
"Calling the Steel Plant, calling the Steel Plant, this is the sharp knife, the time to attack has come, and we are about to launch an attack on the Blue Army, requesting permission, over."
"The steel mill received the order. The action is allowed. Over."
Gao Cheng gave Chen Jun instructions, and before he put down the microphone, he said excitedly: "We have been preparing for more than half a year, and it is finally time for acceptance. I am really looking forward to it. Instructor, do you think we can win this battle?"
Gao Cheng was not actually asking a question, but rather looking for like-minded people to resonate with him.
"Of course we can. We have worked hard for half a year and even gave up our rest period just for today. So, we must not only win this battle, but also win it beautifully."
Instructor Hong Xingguo's face flushed, and his inner excitement was no less than Gao Cheng's.
"Hahaha, that's right. We must win beautifully and make the Third Brother speechless. Let the commander from the division see what a combined company is."
Gao Cheng clenched his fists. As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the first combat order issued by Chen Jun as the front-line commander on the individual radio.
"Calling for three artillery fire, preparing for battle, you have two minutes to set up the artillery, saturation strike, target coordinates..."
Following Chen Jun's order to the firepower platoon, the rear doors of the three infantry fighting vehicles of the firepower platoon, which had been parked there for most of the day, opened simultaneously.
The soldiers carrying 100 mortars rushed down and quickly found a position to set up the guns.
The results of half a year of practice are now fully demonstrated.
Fast! Accurate! Efficient!
Six 100mm mortars were erected from the front and rear rows in just one minute, and the firing parameters were adjusted under the operation of the gunners.
Finally, they all aimed at the center line, and the loader took out the shells and stood by.
As soon as the platoon leader gives the order, six guns will fire at the same time.
With only two platoons of soldiers in the Red Third Company, even with the terrain map as cover and even with the protection of armored vehicles, they would definitely not be able to withstand two rounds of artillery shells.
Twelve rounds of 100mm heavy artillery can actually cut off a layer of the ground.
