Chapter 1177: Showing off family wealth, do you accept it?
According to the process, the first wave of observation is definitely to look at the hardware.
What is hardware?
Weapons and equipment, training venues, training facilities.
To put it bluntly, it feels like flexing muscles.
After getting in the car and driving for more than ten minutes, we arrived at Area A where the White Eagle Brigade is stationed.
When he saw the big letter A on the cement plaque, Li Zheng was slightly shocked.
Area C is the office area where the brigade is located, while Area A is the training ground.
Judging from this tiny detail, Wen Zhaohui attaches great importance to the training of his troops. This kind of arrangement and sequencing is obviously also conveying a message to the officers and soldiers of his own troops - training level is the top priority!
Everything must give way to the first element of combat effectiveness!
When I arrived at the training ground, I got out of the car. At first glance, the open playground was filled with all kinds of armored vehicles, main battle tanks, armored vehicles, field air defense systems, rocket launchers and even helicopters...
Various weapons and equipment were placed on the surrounding long tables and on the cement parade path.
From individual shoulder-launched anti-aircraft missiles to anti-tank missiles, from individual soldier digital systems to infantry, from light machine guns to heavy machine guns...
Even carrying equipment, night vision devices, sights, reconnaissance instruments, etc. are listed separately and placed on the table for everyone to see.
As he watched, Ma Liang couldn't help it.
"Look at this posture..."
He shook his head.
"They simply don't take us seriously. With all their wealth revealed, they are not afraid that we will know their equipment level."
Liao Qiming said: "These individual weapons and vehicles are all very similar. The question is, can we see their trump cards?"
Ma Liang said: "Are you talking about their combat command platform?"
Liao Qiming said: "Yes, look at the communication vehicles and the like over there. Who doesn't have one? This is not the key. Last time we lost, it was because of their powerful interception and monitoring methods. We were unaware of them.
Invading our command channel is the most powerful part."
Ma Liang said: "Yes, yes, I am very interested in seeing their combat center and seeing their mysterious combat platform."
As he spoke, he glanced around at the surrounding armored vehicles, and finally said: "Old Liao, this is not an ordinary foreign military brigade, right? An enhanced version?"
Liao Qiming also looked around, looked at the helicopters, and then walked aside and asked a captain next to the equipment table.
"Comrade, I would like to ask what the composition of your brigade is? How many battalions are there? Why are helicopters assigned to it?"
There is a reason why Liao Qiming asked this.
The original foreign military brigade of the White Eagle Brigade is actually slightly inferior to the PLA Heavy Combined Brigade in terms of firepower.
Generally speaking, the Armored Brigade Combat Team (ABCT) on the Bald Eagle side consists of the brigade headquarters and the brigade headquarters company and seven battalions——
There are three combined arms battalions, a cavalry battalion, an artillery battalion, an engineer battalion and a support battalion.
As of 2014, the Armored Brigade Combat Team is the largest of all brigade combat teams, with an average strength of 4,743 soldiers.
Starting in 2012, the armored brigade combat team no longer adopts the original organization of three combined arms battalions (2 tank companies and 2 mechanized infantry companies), but changes to the new "three-three system" organization.
It includes two armored battalions (2 tank companies and 1 mechanized infantry company) and one mechanized infantry battalion (1 tank company and 2 mechanized infantry companies).
In this way, each brigade combat team has lost two mechanized infantry companies, and the lost one tank company has been incorporated into the cavalry (reconnaissance) squadron. (A total reduction of about 400 people, the main battle tank has been adjusted to 84, and the M2A3 infantry combat team
There are about 120 cars)
But I have never heard that they have helicopters. If they do, they must have been put together according to the strengthened organization during wartime.
The current military structure around the world is composed of soldiers for the purpose of modularity.
The so-called modularization means that units with different combat functions can be temporarily added according to different combat missions during wartime.
Joining the helicopter battalion is also one of the bald eagle practices.
The PLA's heavy equipment brigade can also handle the same thing if necessary during wartime.
"If you ask people to compile these sensitive things, can they tell you?" Ma Liang dismissed Liao Qiming at the side.
After all, after showing you the equipment so clearly, you still want to inquire about other people’s organizational structure?
The composition of the organization is kept secret at all times, especially when it is certain that both parties are already rivals. How could it be disclosed?
Ma Liang thought that Liao Qiming would embarrass the young captain.
Unexpectedly, the young captain did not hesitate at all and replied directly: "Don't worry, chief, our brigade commander has said that he will tell you everything he knows, and he will answer all the questions of the chiefs who come to observe!"
Then he pointed to the helicopter in the distance and said: "Yes, our brigade is equipped with two Wuzhi squadrons and an air combat battalion composed of a transport helicopter squadron. Not only that, we are not a traditional Bald Eagle organization, we are based on them.
, to strengthen on this basis, for example, the original White Eagle establishment only has two armored battalions, but we have four..."
The young captain was eloquent and eloquent. He really explained the entire organization of his brigade in front of the two chiefs of staff who were already stunned.
For example, the ABCT organized by White Eagle has 2 armored battalions, while they have 4.
The jurisdiction of Baiying Establishment
It turns out that the battalion has two mechanized infantry battalions. They are three...
The original cavalry battalion consisted of the headquarters and headquarters company of the blind team, 3 reconnaissance companies, 1 target reconnaissance platoon and other units.
The target reconnaissance platoon is called a special operations squadron and is organized at the company level...
There are many more improvements like this.
In a word, the original ABCT of the Eagle Family had less than 5,000 people, but their White Eagle Brigade actually had more than 8,000 people...
"I said it's no wonder..."
After hearing this, Ma Liang suddenly realized, and his eyes moved to Li Zheng.
"Let me tell you, Lao Li, do you remember where the brigade commander's headquarters was during the last confrontation exercise with their White Eagle Brigade?"
Li Zheng said: "I know, it's in the helicopter."
Ma Liang smiled and said: "I said at the time, they came with so many helicopters, haha."
Liao Qiming said: "It is said to be ABCT, but in fact it is an enhanced small division. With this kind of troops and this kind of equipment configuration, it will be difficult for our heavy-armed brigade to win. It will be difficult for other light-armed and medium-sized brigades to win."
It’s a dream.”
Just as he was talking, Wen Zhaohui appeared in front of the crowd, stood in front of the crowd with a microphone, and said loudly——
"Commanders, please follow me here and get on the bus. Next we will go to the brigade combat command center. Many leaders have told me just now that they really want to see our electronic warfare center, but they are afraid that we will not let them.
Don't worry, I will meet your requirements immediately. We will now move to the combat command center and electronic warfare hall of our brigade to let everyone see what the information combat platform we have jointly developed with the scientific research department over the past two years is like.
One thing, let me show you the power of this platform."
"Fuck me!"
Ma Liang touched Liao Qiming with his elbow, and then stretched out his hand to tug Li Zheng.
"Did you two hear that? He Wen Zhaohui really took us to visit their command center?! Did I hear that right?!"
Liao Qiming obviously didn't react. He was stunned for a while and touched his nose and said: "It's evil!"
Then he asked Li Zheng: "Old Li, what do you think?"
Li Zheng said: "What do you think? Brigadier Wen is so confident..."
