I asked you to repeat your senior year of high school, but did you miss out on joining the military

Chapter 373: The Blue Guards, the most militant people in the battalion
Seeing that Chen Jun just lowered his head to think and did not respond, Tao Junming leaned back in his chair.

He didn't urge her.

The arrangement of using brigade-level logistics as support to supply the first battalion's operations was an order issued by the military region, and he only learned the specific news yesterday.

It’s hard to say whether this kind of battle is easy to fight.

Currently, the war zone is only in the preparation stage, and further arrangements have not yet been issued, but the main purpose given above is very clear.

This exercise has several highlights. The first is jointness, actual combat and innovation.

The second is the army’s first medical blue team, which will make its debut in this exercise.

The assessment of various elements of the third medical service will be carried out throughout the process, and brand-new equipment will appear on the battlefield.

In fact, the military region would hold a meeting before each exercise. The commander-in-chief would sit in the first seat with a head full of white hair and a firm tone, which gave him endless majesty in the meeting room.

With a deep vision and full confidence, the exercise must resolutely break the traditional thinking of "Red must win and Blue must lose". We must attach importance to training, and the purpose of training is not to win or lose in the end.

Don't care too much about the final success or failure.

This is what happens at every meeting.

But when a real war breaks out, with tens of thousands of people on the red and blue sides, it is not easy to ignore winning or losing.

There are many times when I get angry.

But this year, with the entry of the Medical Blues, the battle may not be as fair as before and may be more difficult.

Whether the logistics are huge or not is secondary. The most critical thing is whether a complete logistics transportation chain can be built for cross-regional operations.

Chen Jun was thinking about the advantages of this operation, while the other battalion commanders just sat there in silence.

What are you saying?

The battalions have all been withdrawn, so whether there is a fight or not has nothing to do with them. They are here just to serve as a foil and listen to what is going on.

"Brigade Commander, what do you think about the planned maneuver plan and combat arrangements for this exercise?"

After a burst of excitement, Chen Jun realized that the situation might not be as simple as he thought.

Battalion-level units are equipped with brigade-level logistics.

This thing is like riding an electric bike with a car battery hanging on the back, so the battery life will definitely be fine.

The key point is that it is an electric vehicle. It will definitely not be equipped with such a large-capacity battery for no reason. There must be other requirements.

"I knew you would ask that."

Upon hearing this, Tao Junming straightened his body, put his arms on the conference table, and responded: "I can't give you a mobile plan now."

"What's different about this annual military exercise is that the first medical blue team in the entire military region will also be deployed, and they may be our opponents."

"In view of their joining the battlefield, the director's office will make appropriate changes to many combat arrangements, such as not setting up predetermined actions, and everything will be carried out randomly according to the combat scenario."

"You are the only battalion participating in the battle of the 179th Brigade. In the next two days, referees arranged by the Directorate will be stationed in the First Battalion. When the battle starts, the people from the Directorate will set off with you."

"The military district won't manage much this time, but the directorate will communicate with you on specific matters. You just need to follow their arrangements and participate in this operation."

"Yes, Brigadier General, I understand!!"

Chen Jun responded in a loud voice.

But the excitement that had just risen up in his heart because of dropping a large battery had gradually turned into solemnity.

What a shitty professional medical blue army, this name sounds nice.

If we really want to dig deeper, it is just that the above randomly pulled out a few troops to imitate the combat power of other countries' armies, and a 56 modified tank can be used as a 99A.

The ghost army, which claims to simulate enemy tactics, is nothing more than the same fighting tactics as the Zhurihe Blue Army, and is beginning to expand to a wider battlefield.

To put it bluntly, the Medical Blue Army is equivalent to the directorate. No, when there is such a term as the Blue Army, the directorate is no longer appropriate. It should be called the guidance and coordination department.

They are in cahoots with the Guidance and Coordination Department.

The purpose was to create an extremely harsh battlefield environment so that the Red Army would be forced to accept fighting in such an environment.

To borrow a classic line from Shaolin Soccer, it is: "The referee, the witnesses, the organizer, the co-organizer, all the units, are all my people, how can they fight me?"

The annual military exercise involves more than one army group, and the entire army will be mobilized. I just don’t know who will be so unlucky to encounter this medical blue army.

But I want to think about it.

I don't know what's going on, but Chen Jun always feels that this unlucky guy might be himself.
The meeting at the Second Battalion did not last long, and Tao Junming only conveyed the content of yesterday's military district meeting.

By the way, he awarded ranks to the new recruits in the camp, and then left after finishing these.

With this sudden incident, Chen Jun had no intention of hanging around in the Second Battalion. There were no guns or artillery here anyway, so he was training in basic subjects all day long.

Any officer can be competent in leading troops to this level. Right now, the army is unlikely to provide the Second Battalion with too much manpower or other support.

. . . . . . . . .

"Why do I feel that this exercise is so mysterious?"

On the way back to the first battalion, instructor He Yingtao squinted his eyes and said curiously.

"What's so mysterious about this? It's just that the war zone hasn't issued a specific notice yet, and all parties haven't made contingency plans and preparations."

Chen Jun took out a cigarette from his pocket and threw it to Lao He, then pointed in the direction of the training ground: "Let's go and talk to Lao Qi about this first."

"Row."

He Yingtao nodded. He also guessed that Chen Jun would go to the company commander of the logistics support company, Qi Shao, to have a detailed talk.

After all, we need to increase investment in logistics. This kind of thing cannot be resolved by just talking about it in the brigade and hearing about it in the battalion.

The brigade has similar arrangements, and Lao Qi has always been in charge of logistics work. If he learns about it in advance, he can also use his free time to communicate with the corresponding units in the brigade.

As for the logistical assistance allocated by the military, they don't need to worry about it.

Tao Lu just mentioned it briefly at the conference just now.

The 179st Battalion represents the entire th Brigade in participating in the battle. Brigade-level units must definitely use the army's transportation lines. Saying this only increases the combat chips of this exercise.

Needless to say, the logistics of a brigade-level unit alone cannot extend the battle line for a long time.

"In the past, wars were fought according to scripts, just like the turn-based battles in the game "Ask the Way", but in recent years, there have been more slogans of starting from actual combat."

“Plus, if the domestic economy can keep up, fighting wars according to the script will gradually be eliminated.”

"But an exercise is an exercise after all. If the battlefield is too large, no one can command it, and it is not easy to control. At this time, dividing the battlefield is the best option."

"But then again, if the battlefield is divided and the battle line is extended, the workload in the war zone will continue to increase. It is far easier than setting up a script and acting according to it."

"Right now, the higher-ups are just continuing to deliver logistical support to the battlefield and clear the area."

"How exactly to fight and how each unit should prepare, I guess the higher-ups are probably struggling right now."

Chen Jun expressed his thoughts on the arrangements for this annual military exercise. He Yingtao listened carefully but did not respond.

Anyway, no matter what they guess.

Look at what happened in the meeting just now.

We have to wait for the referee from the director department that Tao Lu mentioned to come over and have specific negotiations before we can finalize the follow-up matters.

Currently, this is the only battalion left in the 179th Brigade that can participate in the war, so the treatment of the battalion level will be upgraded to that of the brigade level.

If it were to follow the usual plan, the battalion-level combat group would be such a small force that it would not be worth it for a referee to be assigned to it directly.

Combat units that have referees are generally at the brigade or division level.

Because this level of combat can mobilize troops to participate in the war within a certain range, it has a certain influence.

The referee follows, firstly to facilitate supervision and to require each unit to play according to the script.

Secondly, they were also there to provide timely feedback on the operational situation to the higher-ups, so that when necessary, they could stop the exercise without having to pass on instructions layer by layer. They had no command authority, but only supervised or represented the operational units, and communicated some temporary changes to the director's office, or found something unreasonable in the script.

The referee can communicate with the superiors in a timely manner.

Chen Jun didn't care too much about this.

Just come.

There seems to be no difference between the multiple referees except that there is always a pair of eyes watching them when they are directing the game.

When the two walked to the training ground.

The first battalion is still cleaning and maintaining the tanks, and training has been appropriately stopped.

This was also something Chen Jun specifically instructed.

After all, modern warfare is all about mechanized weapons, and the First Battalion relies entirely on these iron lumps to fight, with a large number of armored vehicles, tanks, and trucks in its organization.

Even though there seem to be very few weapon and equipment malfunctions during exercises.

Even if it occurs, at most it is during the march, these heavy armors cannot withstand the long-distance attack and mechanical failures occur.

Or it could be because of enemy bombing that caused it to be unable to move or something.

The actual situation is not that simple.

The prerequisite for all the failures is that all units conduct day and night inspections before the war.

Several days in advance, the overall condition of each tank was recorded in detail and all the work was done.

Otherwise, no preparation is made.

Who dares to drive a tank directly to fight the enemy?

That's not just for excitement.

What if the shells can’t be inserted? What if they can be inserted but can’t be fired out?
All these issues must be checked before the war to ensure that there are no problems before going out.

Even if the first-level combat readiness signal is suddenly sounded on the radio, the soldiers in charge of maintenance will check all tanks in the shortest possible time.

Make sure there will be no problems in a short time.

When the two men passed other companies and came to the logistics support company, Qi Shaoxiang was pulling a few cadres to record the numbers of the tanks of the entire battalion and were carefully checking them one by one.

Suddenly, the battalion commander and the instructor came over.

Lao Qi hurriedly handed the paper and pen in his hand to other cadres and whispered to them to continue taking notes.

Then he came up to the two of them, stood at attention, and saluted! !
"Hello, Battalion Commander!!"

"Hello, instructor!!"

"Well, you're welcome."

Chen Jun smiled and returned the greeting. Then he looked around and said with a smile: "How is the investigation going?"

"Captain, is there any news?"

Qi Shaoxiang did not answer but asked instead, his eyes fixed on Chen Jun, his expression full of anticipation.

How could he not be looking forward to it? The reason why he stayed in the First Battalion as a company commander and didn't go to the Second Battalion as deputy battalion commander was because he was waiting for this exercise.

If you want to know who in the entire battalion is most eager to go to war right now.

Then this person must not be Chen Jun, but the Captain Qi in front of him, who looks honest but is actually very warlike.

It can't be said to be warlike.

The main reason is that many of the weapons in the 1st Battalion are too large and cannot be equipped by a battalion-level unit at all.

For example, the nine Type 11, 120mm box-type rocket launchers. If they were placed in the artillery company, the battalion-level logistics would not be able to support them, coupled with mortars, tank guns, and three reinforced infantry platoons.

When that guy fights, his ammunition consumption cannot be described as flowing water, it's simply like a whale drinking.

The void moved everything.

Due to poor logistics, the entire battalion was silenced in less than three minutes. The First Battalion simply did not have the ability to sustain firepower.

As the logistics company commander, Qi Shaoxiang has a deep understanding of this, but the company is so small that it is impossible to increase the logistics establishment, so the only option is to deploy personnel.

To make timely adjustments based on the ammunition consumption in the camp.

That's it.

Not counting the fuel consumption.

In fact, if you think about it, you will understand why Qi Shaoxiang is unwilling to leave. It is mainly because he is unwilling to do so.

He spent four or five months adjusting this difficult unit, and when it was finally time to go to a large-scale battlefield, he replaced it.

No matter who it is, I’m afraid no one would be happy about it.

We have to fight it anyway and test the results of the past six months.

Looking at the shining expression in Lao Qi's eyes, Chen Jun smiled and nodded.

"There is indeed news, and it is good news."

"Brigade Tao just said in the meeting that this time our First Battalion will represent the entire 179th Brigade in participating in this year's military exercise."

"Our logistics will also have brigade-level logistics to provide support in the rear."

"I came here to inform you that you should go to the brigade's direct units more often in the next two days. They have never dealt with the First Battalion."

"You can arrange and communicate on your own."

"Understand?"

“Obviously!!”

When Qi Shaoxiang heard that there was brigade-level logistics support, he stared at Chen Jun with shining eyes, like a female anchor who was as excited as seeing the top guy on the list.

Even someone as calm as Chen Jun could hardly hold himself back under Lao Qi's fiery gaze.

He just felt cold sweat and a chill.
"cough"

Chen Jun coughed lightly, trying to hide his embarrassment, and waved his hand, saying, "Don't be too happy too soon. Having the logistical assistance of the brigade doesn't mean it's foolproof."

"Although our First Battalion has been established for quite some time, it is still a conceptual organization and has not been tested in large-scale actual combat."

"Now, talking about logistics, military types, and organization is just paper talk. There are many more troops participating in the battle on the battlefield."

"The battle situation can change at any time, including logistics. If the battle line is too long, our supply difficulties will increase greatly."

"You must make preparations for communicating with the brigade. Don't be careless. Got it?"

"Yes, battalion commander."

Qi Shaoxiang may have realized that he had lost his composure, and while responding quickly, he hurriedly continued, "Well, Battalion Commander, I'll go to the brigade first."

"Since the brigade's logistics department is going to assist, we can ask them to transfer some vehicles and personnel over before we set off as a reserve before the war."

"I'll go first."

Qi Shaoxiang ran away after he finished speaking.

Chen Jun and He Yingtao were both speechless.

Why is this kid Lao Qi so enthusiastic when it comes to fighting?

He wasn't like this before.
