We can be said to be familiar with the training of the reconnaissance brigade. After all, the training subjects are basically the same as those of the Agent Company. The difference is that the subjects related to helicopter and air-ground coordination of the Agent Company are deleted, and some necessary camouflage subjects are enough.
[
Simply put, the agent company basically does not need to be disguised. Of course, the agent company can do it when necessary. They emphasize more on the quick strike and withdrawal... using helicopters or other means of transportation to quickly deliver, and before the enemy can react,
Complete the mission and evacuate the battlefield before effective defense is organized.
It is obvious that such a unit does not need to spend too much effort to disguise. They often only have more than ten or ten minutes from entering the battlefield to withdrawing from the battlefield. Moreover, they are fierce battles as soon as they are invested. Not only will they not be able to carry the disguise.
The benefits you get will instead put yourself in a state of chaos that cannot be distinguished by us.
But the reconnaissance brigade is different. They have to adopt ground infiltration due to restrictions on conditions.
To be honest, this is more difficult and dangerous than the special operations of the Agent Company, because every success must be based on the enemy's mistakes. For example, there are loopholes in the defense line of the Vietnamese army, such as the Vietnamese army's failure to see it.
The disguised reconnaissance brigade members, such as the Vietnamese army's defense is not tight enough.
Even the reconnaissance brigade must have certain information before infiltration, such as knowing the number of the Vietnamese army on the opposite side, and the number of the nearby Vietnamese army, so that they can properly disguise according to these numbers. Otherwise... we will tell you as soon as we go up.
The Vietnamese devils themselves belonged to the 316a Division (at this time, the 316a Division of the Vietnamese army had been transferred back to the country for rest due to excessive casualties in the Laoshan Battle on July 12), so they were exposed in two or half.
Needless to say, this danger not only refers to the danger they are in performing tasks. The greater danger is still after performing tasks... After performing tasks, it basically means that their identity and location are exposed. How to
After exposing your identity and position, you can escape from the enemy's defense line. This is another major issue. In fact, these are not what the agents are good at.
Fortunately, there is also a figure named Chen Qiaoqiao in our team. She is familiar with the former company commander of the Vietnamese Army Agent Company, so we can really think that we are learning from the barbarians' skills to control the barbarians.
The training work at the beginning was quite simple. The reconnaissance brigade had to do almost the same as an artillery observer, that is, he would lurk at the front of the position every day to observe and observe the artillery in the rear to fire at suspicious targets.
This is not difficult for the reconnaissance brigade except for being caught by friendly forces at the beginning. After all, the reconnaissance brigade is all experienced veterans, and after training in Beijing, they have also learned to observe the brigade.
Standard.
If you really want to say that there is any difficulty in this, it is the various inconveniences caused by the cans and kettles used by our army during the lurking process.
This was proposed by Xu Liangbin. The main reason is that the can is made of iron shells, and the kettle is also a big iron guy. These things will make a "kick" sound when they are lurking, especially when they are crawling forward.
Especially for a kettle, if only half a pot of water is contained in it or is not filled, a sway will make a sound of water.
In fact, we have discovered these problems before, but because the agents later used helicopters to deliver, these problems have become less important.
But these problems are obviously fatal to the reconnaissance brigade, such as when secretly infiltrating the Vietnamese defense line, or when secretly approaching the enemy post...
"This problem is easy to solve!" Zhao Jingping replied without thinking: "Just let them wrap these things with cloth!"
This is a common method used by our army. For example, when our army recovered the war, it was done by secretly lurking into the frontier of the position.
But in fact, this method is not ideal...
I shook my head and said, "This method has exposed many shortcomings in actual combat. For example, once it rains, mud and water will increase the weight exponentially after it gets rainy. You should know that the weight load of the soldiers is close to the limit.
, adding unnecessary loads will undoubtedly increase the physical energy consumption of the soldiers, which is very unprofitable. On the other hand, some sounds will also be found when opening the can, and these sounds may also cause nearby enemies to
Note that it increases unnecessary risks.”
"The disadvantage is that there is." Zhao Jingping said: "But there is no other better way, right?"
"Of course there is a way!" After thinking about it, I said, "Food and water bags that can be given softer packaging for the soldiers."
“Flexible packaging?”
"Yes!" I nodded and replied: "Simply put, it is like compressed biscuits to be packaged in plastic. This will not only not make a sound, but also reduce weight and reduce space. It is also very convenient to eat.
Just tear the opening apart."
"Oh!" Everyone nodded after hearing this.
In fact, I was inspired by the commonly used soft packaging in modern supermarkets, such as soft-packed pickled vegetables everywhere.
"Of course." I continued: "This kind of packaging is not something that can be made in a short while, and it needs to be customized by the logistics department. At present, let the soldiers of the reconnaissance brigade put food in plastic bags.
”
"yes!"
So this problem was solved, and later it gave birth to special supplies for scouts.
Of course, we also use this kind of supply synthesis camp. The main reason is that it can reduce weight to a certain extent and is very convenient to eat.
The second stage of training is prisoner hunting training.
In fact, this is no longer considered training but should be called actual combat, because we are actually infiltration and wiping the Vietnamese defense line on the front line and then withdrawing it.
This mission is quite challenging for the reconnaissance brigade. One reason is that it is quite dangerous, and the other is that it will be annihilated if it is not done well. The other is that the reconnaissance brigade has basically never done this before.
Something...
The soldiers of the reconnaissance brigade are veterans, but most of them are ordinary soldiers, which means that the wars they fought in the past were conventional wars. Although conventional wars are also dangerous, their psychological pressure is less than infiltration and capturing prisoners.
Many... Infiltration and capturing prisoners are entering the enemy's territory to carry out missions, and they also require catching a living enemy. Although there are only one or two casualties that can cause to the enemy, it is much more difficult than conventional warfare.
I just gave an order to do this, and then gave it to Chen Qiaoqiao to do it in full. This is not only because I believe in Chen Qiaoqiao's ability, but also hopes that the reconnaissance brigade can be independent from the synthesis battalion as soon as possible... It's like teaching children
, If you want him to grow up and mature as soon as possible, then don’t do too much for him in daily life, and you should let him do it yourself.
Later I learned that Chen Qiaoqiao had just given Xu Liangbin an order, and then handed over it to Xu Liangbin to complete it. Of course, the reason was the same as mine.
But Chen Qiaoqiao was even more ruthless than I thought: when Xu Liangbin made the plan, she observed the whole process, and even didn't speak when she found that there was a loophole in the plan...
This made me feel a little too much. When I knew about this, I asked her: "It's right to teach them a profound lesson, but what if there are casualties?"
"Do you know what the rules of survival of animals are?" Chen Qiaoqiao replied: "That is what you often say about the survival of the fittest. If casualties are caused or the entire army is wiped out, it is also because of their own problems, or
Say they are not suitable for survival on this battlefield.”
I admit that I was a little creepy when I heard Chen Qiaoqiao's words.
But when I think about it, I think this is not surprising. She is the company commander of the Vietnamese military agent. The Vietnamese military agent may have been trained with such cruel thinking. Only in this way can we train troops that are more suitable for survival on the battlefield.
Fortunately, none of this happened, thanks to Xu Liangbin's ability to adapt...
The entire prisoner capture plan looked perfect. The pre-war reconnaissance brigade determined that between the enemy's 182 high ground 355 high ground every three nights, a Vietnamese military officer would go back and forth in the middle of the night after more than ten days of observation.
At that time, we didn't know why this Vietnamese officer had such a regular trip. At first, he thought it was him who reported to his superiors regularly, but later he found out that it was his wife who was also assigned to the 355th Highland... At this time, there were quite a lot of them in Vietnam.
Women are in the army, so this situation is not surprising at all.
So Xu Liangbin formulated a prisoner arrest plan: first infiltrate the Vietnamese defense line at night, then wait for the Vietnamese officers to pass by in the fields on the roadside, and then retreat as quickly as possible after arresting people.
Everything seems to be fine, the sniper's cooperation and cover units are calculated clearly, and even the mudiness of the fields is estimated based on the nearest weather and similar fields nearby... from this point it can be
It shows how much Xu Liangbin attaches importance to this task, but this may also be because he hopes to win the first battle for the first time in carrying out such a task.
The only thing he miscalculated was that...the failure of the captives when they were arrested and their added weight would cause a series of problems.
This seems to be a very small problem. If you don’t cooperate, just knock him out. As for adding some weight... that’s just a matter of physical strength. This is not a problem for the reconnaissance brigade, let alone consider it.
Let the prisoners free up the weight of their equipment.
But this is not just a matter of physical strength. The added weight just makes the soft fields unbearable, which means that the time for the reconnaissance brigade to withdraw with the prisoners is almost a prisoner-catching operation
