Ballistic Silence of Special Years

Chapter 1124 The new chief of staff of the Red Army Brigade and the Blue Army Brigade
Wan Xiangdong, commander of the 433 Brigade, got up early today.

As planned, this was the first day that their brigade participated in the "Hongshan Confrontation-01" exercise.

At this time, the sun has not yet appeared on the horizon, leaving only a little white fish belly on the mountainside.

The whistle of assembly resounded over the military camp. Military trucks, communications vehicles, transport vehicles, wheeled armored vehicles, and large-tonnage tractor-trailers of various types, both self-propelled and self-propelled, were already on the roadside in front of each battalion. After lining up, the heavily armed soldiers ran out of the platoon room, rushed to their own squad platoon's vehicle with a number plate on it, and quickly boarded the vehicle.

Everywhere in the station, there are rows of people ready to go.

The 433rd Brigade is the main brigade of Army Group A in Theater G. It is a heavily armored composite brigade. When it comes to combat effectiveness, it is also a famous presence in the battle sequence of the entire theater.

In the G theater or the entire army, everyone knows about the 433rd Brigade.In terms of its red bloodline, it is long enough; in terms of its achievements, it is also glorious enough.

Born during the Red Army period, it has gone through the [-]-mile Long March, the War of Resistance Against Japan, the War of Liberation, the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, and the Southern Xinjiang Counterattack. It has appeared in almost every important battle closely related to the fate of the Republic.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, a former division of the 433rd Brigade became the first batch of welcoming troops opened to the outside world. Later, it was the first unit in the G Military Region to be reorganized into a mechanized division, and later it was the first pilot unit to be converted into a brigade. .

National Day military parade, flood fighting and rescue operations, any important task, the first thing the head of the group army or theater thinks of is the 433 Brigade.

"The 433rd Brigade can fight, win, endure hardships, and gnaw bones!"

This is the unanimous evaluation of this heroic unit by the chiefs.

What makes the chiefs most embarrassed are the eight large-scale exercises conducted in theaters or theater organizations in recent years. The most outstanding one was the confrontation between the red and blue forces that was held at the Steppenwolf base. It was known as the "nemesis of the Red Army". The grindstone troops, the 433rd Brigade did not fall behind, and finally won with a slight advantage.

Eight complete victories in eight exercises against each other, this record is rare in the entire theater and even in the entire army.

Brigadier Wan Xiangdong, political commissar Wang Wei, and deputy brigade commander He Bin walked out of the brigade headquarters building accompanied by a group of staff officers. They were going to the directly affiliated team gathering place for a small mobilization, and then announced their departure for the exercise location.

After leaving the gate, Wang Wei asked Wan Xiangdong: "Where is Lao Rong?"

Wan Xiangdong said: "He has been at the command position for a long time. He is the busiest in every exercise. You don't know. In order to catch us by surprise this time, he and his staff left separately from us to avoid being attacked by the blue team." The reconnaissance team discovered that you don’t know that the current Blue Army is more thieves than anyone else and rushed to attack us at the gate of our station. Do you believe it?"

Wang Wei said: "I think Lao Rong attaches great importance to this exercise..."

Wan Xiangdong heard something in Wang Wei's words and sighed, "Has his job transfer report been approved?"

Wang Wei said: "It's almost a matter of not approving it. It is estimated that it will only happen within one or two months. This exercise is probably the last red-blue confrontation in Lao Rongjun's career."

Wan Xiangdong said: "What a pity... It has been ten years. Lao Rong became a colonel at the age of 38. He was transferred to two units, but he was not transferred to the deputy division. What a bastard!"

Wang Wei said: "Actually, the military chief came to me a year ago to discuss the issue of Lao Rong's stay. The suggestion given at that time was that Lao Rong should first go to the equipment department of the group army to make a transition, and then change jobs. But they asked Lao Rong. Rong’s opinion, Lao Rong said that he didn’t want to leave our brigade. He had feelings for this place and was willing to work here until he changed careers. At that time, he asked me to do ideological work for him. I thought to myself, what should I do? A conscientious comrade, I want to work in the position he likes for one more year. Am I not satisfied with his request? Then I found a reason to refuse."

Wan Xiangdong said: "I can't let go of Lao Rong. We have been working together for four years and the running-in has become seamless. As a brigade commander, I really like Lao Rong as the chief of staff."

Wang Wei said: "Some things are not just what you like. This is the rule of the army. If you are not promoted to a colonel after ten years, you have to leave. To put it bluntly, if you feel that you have not made progress or achieved good results, then you will simply give up your position." "

"Shit!"

Wan Xiangdong cursed.

Then the two of them came to the Warrior car.

After getting in the car and closing the door, Wan Xiangdong cursed again: "Bullshit! Who said Lao Rong can't do it? In the confrontation with the Steppe Wolf three years ago, when our brigade was feigned attack, if Lao Rong hadn't seen the clues I made up my mind not to return to defense, but to increase the intensity of the attack on Area 021. Even if I brought two companies back to protect the brigade, I was deceived by the guys from Steppenwolf! Isn’t this considered credit?"

Wang Wei said regretfully: "You said so, but the situation is like this now. The army has become high-tech and the command talents have become more complex. Where is Lao Rong? He was a junior college student in the military academy back then, and later his undergraduate degree was taught by correspondence. It is a loss. This diploma does not allow for cross-arms command. The military has said that a command-oriented officer like the chief of staff must have one specialty and multiple abilities. Lao Rong, can you let him study other arms majors?"

Wan Xiangdong stopped talking. He looked at the scenery outside the car window and was silent for a moment. Then he suddenly said to Wang Wei: "I heard that the replacement for Lao Rong is a very young man. Have you heard?"

Wang Wei smiled: "They are all from the same war zone, who doesn't know? They are very young and very famous."

As he spoke, his smile became a little more meaningful.

Wan Xiangdong said: "He is quite famous, but he used to engage in special operations and is quite famous in the special operations field. I don't know if he understands combined command and joint operations. Crossing lines is like crossing mountains. I don't know. I'm not questioning his ability in special warfare. I'm afraid that he will use our combined brigade as a special warfare brigade. Wouldn't that be the end of the world?" Wang Wei said: "You underestimate people, right? He did it in the past two years. He is a battalion commander in a synthetic battalion of Army Group B. He has experience and will not mess around. I heard that he went to a synthetic battalion of Army Group B and made a backward battalion prosperous in just two years. Last year Have you forgotten the comprehensive competition between the entire army in the northwest? I led the team and won the first place in three individual events."

With that said, he picked up his fingers and started counting for Wan Xiangdong.

"Besides, he has a master's degree and joined the army, participated in peacekeeping, participated in the international sniper competition and won first place, 5 times of first-class merit, and other merits are said to be countless. Plus... he is the son-in-law of our chief. …”

He gestured in front of his chest and quickly changed the subject.

"By the way, don't you want to see the arrangement of the five first-class merits? I would like to see his seniority stamp. It must be very spectacular."

Wan Xiangdong suddenly frowned: "Lao Wang, you said he is only 32 years old and has been staying in the Tiger Brigade. How come he only has five first-class merit awards? Where did he come from? It's unreasonable! Tell me, so After so many years, how many first-class merits have you had?"

Wang Wei smiled and said: "I don't have any, and I have many second-class merits."

Wan Xiangdong said: "That's right! I am the only one, and I got it when I represented the military region in the mechanized command professional competition when I was a company commander. He is only 32 years old, how did he get 5 first-class merits?!"

Wang Wei shook his head: "You can't compare it like this. Li Zheng has participated in many martial arts competitions, participated in many international martial arts competitions, led more teams, and peacekeeping. He has served as a coach abroad. These things are easy to achieve meritorious service."

Wan Xiangdong said: "Lao Wang, even these are not that exaggerated!"

Wang Wei said: "Lao Wan, you can't underestimate me. Many things involved in special operations are unknown to those of us in the Army Combined Forces. He can become the chief of staff of our 433 Brigade at such a young age through layers of selection. He must be a very capable young man.”

Wan Xiangdong stopped talking and continued to be silent for a moment, and finally said: "I hope so. I will be relieved if he can at least be on the level of Lao Rong."

Wang Wei said: "We will see him soon. After the exercise, it is estimated that Lao Rong will leave, so he will come. By the way, we have to think about how to send off Lao Rong and welcome our young man." ’s new chief of staff.”

Just as he was talking, the car arrived at the gathering place of the direct team.

The warrior car quickly passed by various vehicles lined up on the roadside, looking at the steel monsters with a chilling aura, and the soldiers preparing to set off in an orderly manner beside the cars. Just from the military appearance and organizational discipline, it can be seen that Seeing the strong combat effectiveness of this team, it made the two brigade leaders feel like they were on a military parade.

Get out of the car.

Immediately, the deputy chief of staff on duty came over and saluted the two men and reported.

"Report to the brigade commander and political commissar that the direct team is ready to go at any time! Please give instructions!"

Wan Xiangdong looked at the time on his watch and said to Deputy Chief of Staff Hong Jun: "Be on air defense alert, send drones to conduct aerial surveillance around the station, and stay on standby, waiting for the departure order from the Chief of Staff."

"Yes!"

Hong Jun saluted, turned and left to deploy his troops.

"Lao Wan, I heard that the Blue Army this time is not simple! It is not an ordinary Blue Army."

Wang Wei remembered something.

"It is said to be a comprehensive whetstone force based outside Steppenwolf. It is very powerful."

Wan Xiangdong said: "I knew it earlier. If you know yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious in any battle. Do you think I didn't do my homework beforehand? Haha. The newly established one is said to have been established under the personal supervision of Minister Long Gang of the headquarters. It has a large formation and a lot of resources." There are enough funds, and the training models are all imitated by foreign armies. I heard that retired officers from foreign armies were also invited to provide guidance..."

Having said this, he paused, as if he remembered something funny, and said to Wang Wei with a smile: "Their armbands are all from foreign armies, and their equipment is copied as much as possible. Even when I heard a joke, I didn't know it." not real……"

"What joke?" Wang Wei asked.

Wan Xiangdong said: "It is said that their Blue Army unit uses English even in normal training and formal conversations, hahahaha!"
