The new Hongshan-02 exercise has begun with great vigor.
Both the 413th Brigade and the 422nd Brigade have set off for the Hongshan training ground.
However, on the 433rd Brigade side, the camp was still quiet.
But amid the tranquility, there was an unusual tension in the air.
In the camps of each battalion and company, all tanks, armored vehicles, and military trucks have recently undergone detailed inspections and maintenance, are filled with oil, and are ready to be driven at any time.
The troops have entered level three combat readiness.
In the operations center of the brigade headquarters, Acting Brigade Commander and Chief of Staff Li Zheng, Deputy Brigade Commander He Bin and others were studying and deploying the marching plan for this exercise.
All the officers above the battalion level were gathered in the Operations Room 1 inside the operation center. The person on the stage doing deployment and mobilization was Deputy Brigade Commander He Bin.
"In this confrontation exercise, our location is not near the previous 122 defense line, and the combat background and mission are completely different from other brigades. Now the 413th Brigade and the 422nd Brigade are launching a typical regional attack and defense in the Hongshan area and the White Eagle Brigade.
battle, and our brigade was unlucky in drawing lots this time. Not only was it ranked last, but it also drew the most difficult lot... It seems... our brigade commander is not lucky..."
While teasing, he smiled at Li Zheng, who was sitting behind the table on the right side of the podium.
All the commanders in the entire war room laughed.
Li Zheng said: "Drawing the most difficult script is actually a rare test for our troops, and we are the main brigade and have been preparing for a full year. If we draw offensive and defensive battle scripts like 413 and 422,
Then it still fails to highlight our ability. This time, let us compete one-on-one with the White Eagle Brigade. This is the best opportunity to test our strength in all aspects. As long as we win, we will completely and completely demonstrate our strength.
The one who goes up wins, otherwise, if you cooperate with other brigades, you will only get half of the credit for winning, and if you go out and say you won the White Eagle Brigade later, you won’t have that much confidence.”
The cadres laughed again, louder than before.
The reason why everyone laughed was because Li Zheng was indeed unlucky this time.
There are many troops participating in the Hongshan-02 exercise, so it can only be conducted in batches.
After all, this phased exercise of the White Eagle Brigade will have to compete with 6 of the two armies, so the White Eagle Brigade must be given reasonable time to repair.
The entire exercise process spans three months and is intended to be completed before the veterans retire.
In the confrontation sequence of Army Group A, Li Zheng came in last when drawing lots, and the confrontation exercise script was also the most difficult among many scripts.
413 and 422 drew a regional offensive and defensive exercise script, which means that the White Eagle Brigade is responsible for guarding the strategic point Dahongshan area, while 413 and 422 simulated offensive forces using superior force to storm the strategic point guarded by the White Eagle Brigade.
, the area must be captured within five days.
Generally speaking, the script for holding strategic key points in this kind of offensive and defensive battle is to simulate the offensive and defensive situation of troops in a certain place in a major battle. Because the defender occupies a geographical advantage, the attacker often needs to attack with superior forces to be effective.
Because the real battlefield is like this. It is different from the defensive line situation in the previous exercises. It is difficult to capture the key points without superior troops. In actual combat, any commander will mobilize 2 times or even 4 times the troops to attack the key points. It is absolutely impossible to do so.
Use a 1:1 troop ratio to fight this kind of critical battle.
Therefore, this time the 413 and 422 brigades cooperated to establish a joint command headquarters, unified command, and launched an attack on the Dahongshan area guarded by the White Eagle Brigade.
This is the reason why Li Zheng said that his luck in traveling was good, not bad.
If the 433 brigade gets the lottery for the critical battle, it means that they have to cooperate with the 413 or 422, and half of the credit for winning will belong to them.
Now the script is completely different.
When Li Zheng went to the director's department to draw lots, he drew the script for the battle.
The so-called battle is much more interesting.
According to the background set in the script, the 433rd Brigade and the White Eagle Brigade have only one goal in common - to seize control of area G314.
The purpose is simple, but the rules are very interesting - both brigades start preparations from a combat readiness state, pull together after receiving emergency orders, and then organize the troops to maneuver 800 kilometers to the G314 area, and start fighting immediately after entering.
This means that unlike the 413th and 422nd brigades fighting against the White Eagle Brigade, after everyone enters the designated position and waits for the director's order to start the exercise, they gather from the camp area, start calculations from the beginning of the pull, and fight to the end in one go.
Until the winner is decided.
In this way, it not only tests the battlefield offensive capabilities of both sides, but also tests the entire army's capabilities in terms of material deployment, personnel organization, mobile transportation, etc. It can be said to be very comprehensive and requires extremely high requirements on the overall war capabilities of a brigade.
high.
If any link is wrong, or has flaws, or is weaker than the opponent, it may lead to final defeat.
If the 433rd Brigade moves slowly and the White Eagle Brigade reaches the G314 area first, then they will build a defense line and occupy favorable terrain. In this way, the battle will become an offensive and defensive battle, which is very disadvantageous for the 433rd Brigade with a one-to-one strength.
.
Whoever reaches the battlefield first will have the upper hand.
Therefore, the setting of marching routes is particularly important.
How to get a fully equipped heavy-duty combined brigade to G314 as quickly as possible? This is the primary question before the commanders of both sides.
Because the heavy-duty synthetic brigade has a lot of tracked equipment, such as tanks, large trailers are needed to carry these things on the road. Not only do large-scale road trips require many trailers, but they can also be easily taken over.
If you take the railway, the carrying capacity is no problem, but there are only a few railways. As long as the other party targets you and tries to trick you, stop it midway, send some air power to attack, etc., it will be a toothache.
thing.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The troops are divided into multiple directions, this is the best choice.
Of course, this cannot be a problem that can be solved by "dividing troops into multiple routes". The reason why so many battalion commanders are required to attend meetings when formulating a march plan is because the blue army's satellite overhead time must also be calculated.
In this exercise, the White Eagle Brigade, as the blue army, is supported by military satellites, and the 433rd Brigade needs to collect their satellite intelligence to figure out when these satellites will go over the top and when they need to be concealed.
, for example, if the convoy takes the road, it must immediately drive into the woods on the roadside to find cover.
These are all factors that need to be considered carefully.
"...According to my idea, the march route this time is divided into three routes. Except for one company left to guard the camp area, the rest of the troops will go in three directions: railway, highway, and national highway. They will set off immediately after the announcement of the start of the exercise, and the reconnaissance battalion will
If there is an exception, they must rush to G314 by helicopter as quickly as possible, conduct reconnaissance and take the lead there, and lay a nail there first."
After finishing speaking, he turned to Li Zheng.
"Brigadier, I'm done, please give me instructions."
Li Zheng turned his head and looked at the march plan on the screen, thought about it and said, "Be careful over there at the reconnaissance camp..."
He turned his head and glanced at the battalion commanders in the audience.
"Ning Zheng."
"arrive!"
"Your reconnaissance battalion is responsible for taking the lead. I don't think everyone should rush over. The airborne reconnaissance company will go over. The other remaining companies will take the highway and not follow the brigade. They will go over as quickly as possible. I think the White Eagle Brigade must also go there.
They will seize the opportunity, and they will also send scouts there first. You have to be careful, I think you will be the first to come into contact with the scouts of the White Eagle Brigade at the beginning."
"Don't worry, Brigadier!" Ning Zheng said: "Our battalion has been preparing for this for a year, and now everyone is gearing up and waiting to kill their White Eagle Brigade scouts."
Li Zheng smiled and said: "Okay, I can clearly see your improvement in combat effectiveness. As long as you don't underestimate the enemy or be careless, the people of the White Eagle Brigade probably won't take advantage. But there is one thing, remember the rules of special operations
Principle, don't fight to the death, don't force yourself, scouts are not infantry, I don't need you to fill in the lines and defend, do you understand what I mean?"
Ning Zheng replied resoundingly: "Understood! Fight quickly and retreat quickly, be flexible and changeable, guerrilla raids, don't be confrontational!"
Li Zheng smiled and said, "I don't remember this in the textbook."
Ning Zheng smiled: "Shi Mingyuan summed it up."
Li Zheng chuckled: "This kid, by the way, let him lead the military detective to lead the battle. This kid can do it."
In fact, Li Zheng knew the details of Shitou. He had been in actual combat and had served in the Tiger Brigade at Baiduli before. He could definitely surprise the scouts of the White Eagle Brigade.
Seeing Li Zheng's advice, He Bin asked the battalion commanders below.
"Has everyone clearly seen the plan in hand? Once you have seen it clearly, share your opinions and brainstorm, otherwise it will be finalized."
Suddenly, someone shouted: "I have a suggestion!"
Li Zheng stretched his neck and saw that it was the newly appointed Second Battalion Commander He Nan.
He Nan was promoted to the position after rigorous examinations and confrontations. He was the result of Li Zheng's "Challenger" plan. This person's command level is very high and his talent is astonishing.
