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

Chapter 497: This is not a conspiracy, it is definitely an open conspiracy
At nightfall on October 10nd.

In the battle zone in the distance, there was still constant artillery fire and the fighting was fierce.

The 26th Brigade of the 179th District dispatched hundreds of infantrymen.

He sneaked to the border of the war zone, wielding a shovel, and digging holes to bury anti-tank mines.

The simple incendiary bombs made by the logistics battalion during the day also began to be distributed in a steady stream.

Almost all the soldiers in the brigade were mobilized.

The firepower of the wolf pack tactics was constantly reorganized under the cover of night, and the weapons of each battalion were reconfigured.

The whole brigade was so busy that it jumped up and down.

Not to mention that at the conference, the Chief of Staff specifically instructed not to bully the Red Army, and gave instructions like there was no need to bury anti-tank mines.

Soldiers, especially officers, must understand the meaning of the orders from above.

For example, Chen Jun clearly mentioned at the conference that the Red Army should not be bullied.

Do not lay anti-tank mines.

But this kind of words, no matter how much truth they were when they were said at the time, were heard by the battalion commander below.

This is an extra reminder to dig and bury it quickly.

Otherwise, why do we have to bring this up at the conference?
What's more, digging pits and burying mines without much fanfare would attract the attention of the Red Army spies in the dark.

How can the distribution of firepower by the teams in the rear proceed smoothly?

At this time, in the temporary command room of the 179th Brigade.

More than a dozen members of the combat staff group are still studying the details of the wolf pack tactical firepower team.

Chen Jun was alone, standing in front of the command terminal, looking at the images sent back by the drone and watching the pre-war preparations of the various battalions in the brigade.

Silence.

He also recently heard some people in the brigade discussing that Chief of Staff Chen's tactics were too cruel.

Even just now, a member of the staff group inadvertently mentioned that the use of improvised incendiary bombs in this exercise was a bit too harsh.

Chen Jun never paid much attention to similar discussions.

What can I say about this thing?

Just like the lines from the poem "Jianghu Xing" that was modified by someone in the military camp: The world's ups and downs are created by our generation, and time hurries up once we enter the battlefield. We talk and laugh about grand ambitions and hegemony, which is no match for a drunken life in the world.

Sounds exciting, doesn't it?

But no matter how exciting it is, the exercise is ultimately for fighting, and it is also to test the direction of the war and to restore the war as much as possible.

Whether it is the 236th Brigade or the 92nd Brigade, it also includes their 179th Brigade.

If we count forward, who isn’t a heroic unit?

An exercise can use thunderous means to destroy a unit's decades of arrogance; a tactic can also destroy a unit's direction and efforts in an instant.

These are the reasons why the tactics are considered vicious.

In fact, regarding this battle with the 236th Brigade, more officers in the brigade hoped to kill the opponent head-on and openly.

But Chen Jun doesn't think so.

Because of his cognition.

A fight to the death is called war, and that is the enemy. The tactics are not despicable. Can you sit cross-legged on the battlefield and chat with the enemy about comradeship?

In fact, Chen Jun discovered a problem a long time ago.

That is because there has been peace for too long, and although many troops still have the fighting spirit, they have forgotten the true nature of war.

It can’t be said that they have forgotten it, because many people have never experienced it at all.

But they have not experienced it, but Chen Jun has experienced it too many times in his previous life.

What is war?
That was a massacre, it was done at all costs, it was a city and even a country crying.

From chemical weapons to tactical killing weapons, from astronomical weapons to viral weapons, these are all filled with the highest discipline of brutality and the confrontation of wisdom.

In more distant wars, such as the Battle of the Somme, tens of thousands of casualties and wounded soldiers were reported in a single day.

A large number of wounded soldiers, who had not been treated in time, lay wailing between the machine guns and barbed wire. It was hot weather at that time, and there was no need to describe how bad their wounds were.

Before the next round of attack, the wounded will be covered by their own artillery fire.

Another example is the Battle of Kursk, where 8000 tanks, tens of thousands of artillery pieces, and millions of troops fought and lost the equipment of several armies in a single day.

In an industrialized country, one-tenth of its annual production capacity was gone just like that.

Therefore, in Chen Jun's view, war is not just about massacre and using any means necessary.

It was also filled with the smell of decay.

If you don't believe it, kill tens of thousands of pigs and throw them on an open space, then try to smell it.

Tens of thousands of heads might be too difficult, a few hundred heads will do, or even a dozen heads will be fine.

Rather than saying that many people do not know how to fight, it is better to say that they have forgotten that war has no bottom line at all.

A leader once specifically asked why it is necessary to deploy large-scale tactical weapons against troops that have just entered the battlefield during exercises?
The purpose is to enable commanders to break the constraints of bottom-line thinking.

If Chen Jun had not arranged the pre-war tasks and supervised their implementation, the 179th Brigade would have won the first battle in this series of military exercises.

Who knows how lax they are now.

Even on the battlefield, it was not uncommon to happily chat and argue about victory.

In fact, when it comes to being ruthless, Chen Jun still has many ways to go. It is not difficult to organize a large army into a battle, create false casualties on the battlefield, and confuse the entire battlefield with the real and the fake.

After all, it doesn't seem that difficult to make your soldiers or tanks emit white smoke, right?
You can imagine that once the fake battle damage deceived the Red Army's tank groups, they were distributed on the battlefield and suddenly "resurrected" when the enemy was unprepared, which would cause great damage to the enemy's cluster.

This kind of true and false tactical deception is the real way to destroy the enemy's psychological defenses, and it can also be said to be cunning.

Looking at the Blue Army soldiers scattered across the battlefield, they have almost completed their pre-war preparations.

Chen Jun then walked out of the command room and looked up in the direction of Area 31 in the south.

However, his mind kept recalling the performance of the 236th Brigade during the joint training two months ago.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Brigade Commander Guo and Chief of Staff Ji should also be preparing, right?"

Chen Jun smiled and sighed in a low voice, then turned to look at the command room and said loudly: "Old Li!!"

"Hey, Chief of Staff!!"

Lao Li is one of the firepower staff officers of the 179th Brigade, and he was also the cadre who used to follow Chen Jun to various brigades to check their firepower equipment.

During this exercise, he also served as the communications staff officer for the 179th Brigade.

"Go, notify all battalions and start executing Plan No. 1."

"We will prepare for a mass assault tonight and be ready to welcome the arrival of the Red Army."

"It is required that the battalions do not have to be too alert and should show appropriate laxity. We must let the Red Army's reconnaissance personnel see that we are loose on the outside but tight on the inside."

"It is required that the battalion commanders of each battalion always bear in mind the firepower allocation of the Wolf Pack Tactical Team and hold a meeting with the cadres below overnight to fully publicize it."

"This Red Army is not the 92nd Brigade. It is not that easy to deal with. Inform all combatants in the brigade to prepare for a fierce battle."

"Yes, Chief of Staff!!"

Old Li responded quickly, turned back to the command room, and issued orders one by one according to Chen Jun's instructions.

It only takes a moment.

The Blue Army's infantry, who had dug pits and buried anti-tank mines on the periphery, quickly retreated, and one tank after another, flashing red lights, began to gather in the dark. The huge cluster dynamic chain appeared again, and the rumbling sound of the tank engines and the sound of the ground rolling could be heard for miles.

The news also reached the eyes of the Red Army scouts stationed in District 26.

. . . . . . . .

Area 31, 236 Brigade Command Room.

Brigade Commander Guo Xiangnan and Chief of Staff Ji Tong were listening to the reports from their subordinates at this time.

These two people are old acquaintances of Chen Jun. Compared with Liu Xiang, Ji Tong is more familiar with Chen Jun. When they were in Zhongpei, they were neighbors for quite a long time.

According to the report from the front-line scouts, the Blue Army has buried a lot of anti-tank mines and is now gathering its troops to prepare for a decisive assault.

Ji Tong frowned and looked at Guo Xiangnan beside him: "Brigade Commander, I think this blue army is going to compete with us in group combat capability."

"The other side organized their formation overnight. They clearly took it so seriously, but they also deliberately pretended to be lax on the perimeter. What on earth is Chen Jun doing?"

Brigade Commander Guo Xiangnan sat at the conference table, cigarette between his fingers. He was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Old Ji."

"You have been dealing with Chen Jun for the longest time. What kind of person is that guy in your opinion?"

"he?"

Ji Tong sneered when he heard this: "He appears to be honest on the surface, but he is actually a sinister and evil person behind the scenes."

"Damn it, I've never seen a young man like this before. He's very decisive and steady in a fight. He's a tough guy."

"But he has the image of an honest guy. If you don't know Chen Jun well, you will suffer a great loss if you are not careful in a battle with him."

"Yes."

Guo Xiangnan nodded in agreement: "He is obviously a strong man, but he is born harmless. Lao Liu of the 92nd Brigade is very capable in fighting. Chen Jun defeated his main force in just a few hours."

"Old Cao from the 16th Amphibious Brigade, an old soldier in the army, was killed by his round of artillery fire and is now retired."

"Captain Li of the 124th Division is a very strong general. His division headquarters was destroyed, and half of the firepower of the division-level combat group was destroyed."

"Based on every battle he has commanded before, Chen Jun is not someone who likes to reveal his tactical intentions."

"When I trained with them two months ago, Chen Jun never revealed his tactical purpose. He always attacked them by surprise."

"Yesterday, when we fought the 92nd Brigade, we deployed a cluster attack and didn't give the 26th District Red Army time to react. As a result, the Red Army was caught off guard and the main force was not deployed in time, resulting in a complete defeat."

"Analyzing Chen Jun's previous fighting habits, not only did he not hide his purpose this time, but he also openly displayed his tactics."

"Old Ji, don't you find it strange?"

"This"

After listening to the brigade commander's analysis, Ji Tong felt a chill in his heart and a chill ran to the back of his head.

Yup!

Based on Chen Jun's previous performance, this kid has never been so active in expressing himself.

"Brigade Commander, what do you mean?"

Ji Tong asked with a frown.

"I don't mean anything." Guo Xiangnan waved his hand, and put out the cigarette he was holding, saying, "If I'm right, the Blue Army has deployed such a large force this time, and has also deployed an armored assault cluster formation."

"He clearly knows that we are the best at this, but he still puts it out there anyway."

"He has only one purpose, and that is him. He wants to see us deploy a cluster assault to charge into Area 26. This guy may have figured out how to break our cluster's dynamic chain."

"At the junction of Districts 26 and 27, anti-tank mines were planted at night, and a tight security was set up."

"Every arrangement seems to be designed to guard against our massed assault, as if they are very afraid of us."

"In fact, they are all trying to attract us to send out troops and conduct cross-regional group assaults to kill them."

"Is this a conspiracy, trying to lure us into the trap?" Ji Tong had the urge to curse.

Damn, just a small war, where does this bastard named Chen get so many tricks?
"No, it's not a conspiracy, it's a complete conspiracy!!"

Guo Xiangnan laughed loudly twice: "That bastard Chen Jun must have found a way to deal with our cluster dynamic chain, but I haven't figured out what his tactics are for the time being."

"But even so, we have to jump into his trap. If we don't deploy the cluster movement chain and enter Area 26 in batches, we will suffer a great disadvantage in terms of geographical advantage. If we are surrounded by the Blue Army's cluster attack, we will definitely lose."

"Send an assault group across the border. No matter how powerful the Blue Army's tactics are, they won't be able to wear us down in a short time."

"Well, let's have a fight with the 179th Brigade."

"Old Ji, go and notify the Red Army units in Districts 30, 29, 28, and 27, and tell them that in three hours we will be passing through District 26."

"Order, the entire brigade will immediately light a fire and cook on the spot. After eating, rest for an hour before setting off."

"Order, move the armored group, with tanks and infantry fighting vehicles as the core, to block the gaps between the two wings. Once you encounter enemy fire, immediately conduct reverse artillery fire."

"I don't care what the Blue Army's purpose is this time. In short, the first moment we confront them, we must immediately cut off the Blue Army's control over the entire army."

"Order, the 26th Combined Battalion will detach from the assault group, concentrate the mechanized infantry, and split into two groups. One group will escort the baggage into Area , and the other group will set up an ambush on the Blue Army's flank."

"Requirements: All assault cluster firepower, coordinated with armor, and individual soldiers equipped with RPGs and 35mm grenade launchers. When encountering the enemy, use mobility and speed as the main method to clear out the blue army's firepower, surround them on three sides and leave one side open, squeeze their living space, and drive them into the ambush circle."

"Order, the drone brigade cooperates with the ground guidance to launch an air-to-ground attack on the Blue Army snipers to provide combat space for our infantry."

"Go for it!!"

"Yes!!"

have to say.

Guo Xiangnan's tactics used air-ground coordination, encirclement on three sides and leaving one side open, and anti-matrix assault. When encountering the enemy, he no longer used the cluster dynamic chain rampage strategy.

Trying to break the Blues' tactical arrangement.

This arrangement is very clever.

Because the assault cluster blocks the shooting gaps on both wings, the firepower of the entire assault cluster will be extremely concentrated, and the entire formation will not be too far apart either vertically or horizontally.

Not easy to be penetrated and eliminated.

If they encounter artillery fire, the clusters on both wings can quickly distance themselves and avoid it.

If you encounter a blue army cluster, you can insert into the blue army cluster as quickly as possible to quickly divide the battlefield and prevent the enemy from forming a siege.

It can quickly disrupt the battle situation, cut off the enemy's cluster advantage from the middle, and firmly grasp the initiative in one's own hands.

Guo Xiangnan is definitely a tough opponent.

Of course, it's not just the brigade commander of the 236th Brigade who is difficult to deal with. Even the cooks are quite capable.

The order for the entire brigade to rest was issued, and in just one hour, they managed to use the cooking pot to prepare four dishes and a soup.

After a day of fighting with the Blues from District 31, the toughest dish is now served.

The mutton bone soup has a thick milky white soup sprinkled with coriander leaves, and chili oil is used to garnish the soup. The large chunks of meat and bones are a delicious dish to drink while it's hot.

A bite of meat bun, a sip of mutton soup, and then a bite of finely chopped spicy and sour kelp shreds. All the officers and soldiers of the 236th Brigade were so satisfied with the meal.

Be in high spirits.

Three hours later.

The army moves out.

The momentum is like a rainbow, and the smoke is rolling.

Go straight to District 26.
