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

Chapter 474: This is what we said, our victory is just not obvious
On the big screen, the battle between the two sides is still in a stalemate.

Dog fights, penetrations, encirclements, cuttings, and unbridled strangulations are taking place.

The left wing of the 236th Brigade had been breached, and the tank cluster of the 179th Brigade, like a fiery spear, pierced through the enemy's several kilometers of steel array.

The battlefield was successfully divided.

The mortar and howitzer vehicles of the 236th Brigade lost the protection of their armor, and too many of their infantry were ambushed at the beginning, resulting in insufficient coordinated combat effectiveness and they were quickly exhausted.

Only groups of tanks were left, forming combat groups. The two sides kept maneuvering in circles and bombarding each other at a distance of less than 50 meters.

The fighting was extremely fierce.

Whether it was the 179th Brigade or the 236th Brigade, the fire control radars in their vehicles were flashing red light madly, pushing the tense atmosphere to a climax.

The faces of the soldiers in the tank flickered under the red warning lights. Each driver's blood was circulating at a rapid rate, and even their bodies were shaking uncontrollably.

When the killing becomes intense.

Two Type 99As weighing fifty or sixty tons collided violently, with steel torn apart, sparks flying, and composite armor and tracks stuck together.

The tank's high-powered engine roared with a terrifying roar, trying to break away from the enemy and fight again.

This is just one of the battlefields that has been cut.

Another place.

The driving skills were even more impressive. One of the veteran drivers of the 179th Brigade managed to achieve some kind of consistency with the steering of the high-horsepower engine at a certain moment during a high-speed evasive maneuver.

In a dangerous situation.

He actually avoided the enemy's attack.

The armor-piercing bullets fired from the enemy vehicle slid past the composite armor, and a streak of brilliant sparks appeared on the armor.

One second later, the armor-piercing bullet exploded in the air twenty meters away.

Avoidance successful.

These exciting battle scenes were so exciting that Chen Jun, who had already announced the end of the battle, couldn't help but look sideways for a while.

The 71st Army Chief of Staff He Dong laughed heartily after the applause: "Haha, what a wonderful battle."

"If I were 30 years younger, I would definitely go up and give it a try today, haha."

“Really wonderful.”

The commander-in-chief of the 71st Army, Wang Zhongyi, nodded slightly. He used to be the leader of the Wansui Army, and now he leads the first-sequence group army after the military reform.

Being praised by him, in a way, Chen Jun did a good job in this joint training.

“But it is still difficult for the combined forces brigade to fully demonstrate their combined power during joint training.”

"Chen Jun!!"

"arrive!!"

Hearing the commander-in-chief calling him, Chen Jun quickly retracted his gaze, stood at attention and responded loudly.

"Make a copy of the entire combat process of today's joint training and send it to the military district staff for preservation."

"Also, based on the problems revealed during the joint training, make corrections. I'll give you two months."

"The military district will help you gain a two-month period of peace. After two months, I'm afraid it will be difficult for your 179th Brigade to maintain peace."

"Yes, Chief!!"

Chen Jun responded in a clear voice.

This is an obvious thing.

Once the flames of joint training begin, more and more units will realize that it is impossible to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops by relying solely on routine training.

I want to stand out and achieve good results in the shortest possible time.

The only way is to keep fighting and adapting.

What the grassroots cadres are considering is how to perform, how to get more quotas, and how to train more backbone personnel.

The high-level commanders naturally think about how to make their units achieve results as quickly as possible during this special period.

Seize the opportunity to advance your position.

Not long after watching the joint training, the leaders from the military region and the people from the theater army staff left one after another.

As for the final result, how long the 236th Brigade can hold out is not their concern.

The theater of operations includes military regions, and all that is needed is data on combined brigade training.

Although this is only a small-scale mobilization to participate in the combat, it is still important for many units that are still in the first phase of building a combined brigade.

At least there is a direction.

The leaders had all left. After Chen Jun went downstairs to see them off, he continued to stand in front of the big screen and watch the battle between the two sides.

Feng Lu was also watching.

At this time, the brigade's command was no longer needed, as its four combined battalions were carrying out large-scale clearing.

. . . . . .

On the battlefield.

The soldiers of the 236th Combined Brigade saw piles of damaged tanks, howitzer vehicles, and infantry fighting vehicles widely distributed not far away.

Our own battlefield has been cut into pieces, and even the sound of artillery fire is getting weaker and weaker.

The hope of a counterattack is becoming increasingly slim.

Where a group of infantrymen gathered, the scene fell into an eerie silence.

Tens of seconds passed.

One of the privates had a sad face, looked at the livid-faced third-term sergeant beside him, and whispered tentatively: "Squad leader, have we been defeated?"

"Who said that?"

When the squad leader heard the question, he was so angry that his cheeks were slightly distorted. When he turned his head, he saw that it was a new recruit who was asking the question.

He then calmed down a little: "You really don't know how to talk."

"Can we call this a defeat? Remember, this situation can only be called an unclear victory, or a lack of victory, not a defeat."

"Don't make a sound. If the battalion commander hears you, he will beat you to death."

The old soldier frightened the private.

"But this is still a defeat."

The private did not hear the good intentions in the squad leader's words. He lowered his head and muttered softly, feeling mixed emotions.

Because failure is always difficult for new recruits to accept.

The 236th Brigade in particular was often told by veterans that they used to be the famous 36th Division, which had never had any rivals and was invincible.

But today, I failed!!
Obviously, a loss is hard for more than just recruits to take.

The 236th Combined Brigade was also a newly reorganized brigade. Before setting off, many soldiers clamored to capture the old thief Chen alive.

As for who Chen Laozei was, they had no idea at all. They only knew that this was what the chief of staff called him.

Gradually, cries were heard one after another at the scene, and morale dropped.

Just at this moment, the commander of the combined battalion of the 236th Brigade passed by not far away.

The battle was supposed to be like this.

As the battalion commander, he already knew that there was no hope of a comeback, not to mention a joint training with a serious imbalance in firepower. They came here just to accompany the prince in his studies.

Didn't expect to win.

But as the battalion commander, he knew better that the morale of all officers and soldiers was low and they must not lose even if they had to.

The battalion commander had originally planned to wait until the battle was over, clean up the mess, and take the troops back to make a summary, but now he passed by a group of infantry and saw that their morale was so low.

The anger in his heart was also bubbling out.

Pushing open the car door with a click, a battalion commander took out two rocket launchers from the car, put them on his back, turned around and yelled: "Cry your ass off!"

"Just hold it back for me."

"Hey, the one from the third period is talking about you. Which class are you from? What's wrong with you?"

The fierce voice echoed.

The group of infantrymen who had been scattered looked blankly at the battalion commander who suddenly appeared.

The battalion commander held a rocket launcher, patted his heart hard, and said through gritted teeth: "What are you crying for?"

"Am I dead? Are you dead? As long as we are here, the 236th Brigade is still here." "What a shame!!"

"a shame!!"

"I'll remember all of this. I'll shed blood but not tears."

"Remember, even if there are only three households in Chu, Chu will destroy Qin. Even if there is only one person left, we will beat up the old thief Chen."

"If you are a soldier from the 236th Brigade, put away your sorrows and follow me forward. Kill!!!"

After the battalion commander finished shouting, he took the lead in rushing towards the battlefield where the sound of artillery fire was getting weaker and weaker.

"kill!!!"

There were another burst of roars, these were the soldiers shouting wildly.

This is the field army, the field army that never retreats.

A group of scattered infantrymen had red eyes and looked at the figure of the battalion commander with admiration. At this moment, in the hearts of the soldiers, the figure charging in front was their spiritual totem.

They firmly believed that as long as the battalion commander was there, nothing would be a problem and their 236th Brigade would overcome all difficulties.

boom! !

There was a sudden gunshot.

A bullet from the side hit the battalion commander. The lieutenant colonel's body swayed and white smoke came out of his head.

Fatty He, who was not far away, put away the Type 95 rifle in his hand and threw it to the soldier next to him.

"The ones who are flashy and those who charge in from behind, leave none alive."

"Yes!!"

Under the command of Fatty He, two platoons of infantrymen set up their rocket launchers and aimed at the oncoming enemies.

Lao He learned this trick from Chen Jun. When he is in doubt, he uses bombardment.

When Chen Jun led the 1st Battalion, he liked to equip the infantry with rocket launchers. He also learned this trick.

The 236th Brigade was destroyed with the last charge.

The entire training session also heralded its final end.

And the other side.

Chen Jun stood in front of the big screen, his eyes flickering slightly, with an inexplicable meaning lingering in his heart.

Because when the battlefield was finally being cleaned up, no one paid attention to the drones flying overhead.

He clearly heard someone calling him "Old Thief Chen".

Oh shit.

Chen Jun walked to the window with a gloomy face, looked at his reflection in the glass, and looked at his still young face. Apart from the black spots, there was nothing wrong with it.

How did he win the title of "Old Thief Chen"?

Feng Qiuhu, who was watching from the side, also laughed in silence. He shook his head and said, "We will train together with Lao Guo's 236th Brigade this time, even if the other side encounters a blockade and bombing in the early stage."

"In the end, they were able to hold their own against our four main battalions."

"It's not hard to see that our training is still not up to par."

"Yes."

After hearing the brigade commander speak, Chen Jun no longer had the heart to look in the mirror.

He turned around and sat on a chair nearby, glancing at the staff officer next to him: "Notify the battalion commanders to gather at the brigade headquarters for a meeting in an hour."

"I calculated the losses in this battle, not to mention the combat power lost by the 236th Brigade in the bullet and rocket bombardment."

"Only when it comes to the assault front, except for the first battalion, which was able to achieve an astonishing casualty ratio of 1 to 3, the second, third, and fourth battalions could hardly even achieve a casualty ratio of to ."

"This is despite the 236th Brigade's insufficient firepower and constant interference with its communications."

"If this battle is between us and the entire 236th Brigade, it's hard to say who will win or lose."

Even though Chen Jun already knew the result.

But when this fact was laid before him, he still found it hard to accept.

There's nothing we can do about it.

If the 179th Combined Brigade had not been disbanded before, it would have been reorganized into a combined brigade on its original basis, and with the many advantages accumulated in the previous few months.

Their 179th Brigade is definitely a different kind of spectacle.

But obviously, this is impossible.

What the troops need is balanced development, and all units must be combat-ready. Even if their brigade has not been disbanded before, it would be better if they could demonstrate strong combat effectiveness at this time.

Still couldn't escape the fate of disbanding.

Because the higher-ups have to ensure development, it is impossible to put all the people who understand combined operations into one unit.

A blessing in disguise.

At least after this joint training, Chen Jun finally found the biggest problem in the brigade.

That is, the theory is invincible, but the actual operation cannot be said to be a mess.

Anyway, there is no way to form a confrontation with the other old troops.

"Yeah, if we go up against the entire 236th Brigade, the outcome is hard to predict."

After listening to Chen Jun's analysis, Feng Qiuhu nodded in agreement.

"The commander-in-chief of the military region said that we should buy two months to correct the problems in the brigade as soon as possible."

"Obviously, he is the general commander of them. He also sees the shortcomings on our side. We have the sense of coordination, but the ability to act is not strong."

"Do you have a solution to this problem?"

"It shouldn't be difficult."

Chen Jun thought for a moment and continued, "The sense of collaboration is strong. This is probably related to the fact that there were too many people studying in our unit before."

"At that time, in order to complete the teaching and let other comrades come and learn something, the cadres and soldiers in the camp gave lectures every day."

"Over time, the theory becomes very solid, but this solidity cannot be converted into execution."

"In the final analysis, it is because the grassroots cadres have low military quality and little experience in leading troops. In addition, they spend most of their time teaching others and are unaware of their own problems."

"Even we ourselves didn't realize this. If we didn't train together, we wouldn't realize that our overall combat capability is so much worse than that of the old units."

"Well, it's okay as long as you know the problem. Two months, come on."

Feng Qiuhu agreed with Chen Jun's analysis: "The commander-in-chief will only give us two months, and no unit should come to harass us during this time."

"But two months from now it will be National Day, so it's hard to say then."

"By then, there will inevitably be many tough battles to fight."

"Yes, I know."

Chen Jun nodded slightly.

After separating from the brigade commander, he continued to stand in the information command room, repeatedly watching the scenes of close combat between the main battalions of both sides.

Be it the other party's assault formation or defensive maneuvers, they all gave Chen Jun a lot of inspiration.

Although these veteran units are not so skilled in the command of combined battalions, they cannot use coordination well.

But no one said that the combined forces battalion must be powerful.

In other words, no one has stipulated a fixed combat method for combined operations.

This time, if the 236th Brigade had not experienced a large-scale elimination of its infantry, the armored corps would have consumed too much firepower due to rocket launchers.

Facing our four main battalions at full strength, it is hard to judge which one is stronger and which one is weaker.

Chen Jun was studying the battle process here.

The nine battalion commanders under the 179th came to the brigade headquarters from the joint training ground one after another, ready to attend the summary meeting.

Among the battalion commanders, the happiest one is Lu Zhengming, the battalion commander of the combat support battalion.

This guy’s mouth is almost grinning from ear to ear.

As for the commanders of the four main battalions, they all hung their heads, looking guilty.

After all, even they could see that the combat effectiveness of the 236th Brigade was definitely higher than theirs.

Wouldn’t the Chief of Staff know?
