I don't seem to have any reason to refuse the captain's suggestion... Read the latest and most complete novel
After all, my mission here is to be an adviser to the British Army, so it is precisely my job to assist sas in attacking the island of Mahara.
On the other hand, more importantly, as the battalion commander of the synthetic battalion, I also want to participate in the sas battle personally. This is undoubtedly of great benefit to the formation of our synthetic battalion and even our special forces.
.
The only thing I worry about is...
"Captain!" I asked, "Can I know which warship you are on?"
The reason I ask this is because I know that if I want to cooperate with SAS's work, I will definitely have to go back to the fleet again. You must know that I have worked so hard to find an excuse to escape from the Sheffield.
If you go back for no reason now, it would be unfair.
"Antrim!" The captain was a little surprised: "What did the Colonel ask?"
"Oh, nothing!" I felt relieved to hear that this warship was not the Sheffield.
But this seems to be like this, you must know that sas is a special forces.
Special forces mean that they often have to fight on the front line, and also need fire support from some warships. It is obviously inappropriate to arrange them directly on Clap's command ship.
"No problem!" I nodded and said, "When will we set off?"
"Thank you very much!" replied the captain: "It's now!"
I looked at Lin Xia who was rolling her eyes next to me and couldn't help but feel funny. We had just arrived at this southern island from the warship and were about to return to the fleet again.
But soon I knew we were wrong. Because the helicopter stopped on a warship after only flying in the dark for more than half an hour.
So I quickly understood that sas actually left the fleet and went to South Georgia for exercise alone. At the same time, I realized one thing: sas may have encountered difficulties in the plan to land on the island of Horse Island.
The reason is very simple. South Georgia is more than 1,300 kilometers away from the Cambridge Island. This more than 1,000 kilometers may be a matter of several hours for helicopters, but it costs at least twenty for warships with a speed of 30 knots.
How many hours.
Simply put, it takes a whole day to rush to the Cambodia immediately... This is simply unimaginable when the British army needs to launch a landing war on the Cambodia at any time, unless they encounter a tricky situation when landing on the Cambodia.
The problem.
"College!" Just as I walked out of the helicopter thoughtfully and came to the deck, a serious British officer walked up to me and shook hands enthusiastically and said, "I heard that you defeated my troops, I
Very unexpected!"
"Your troops? Are you referring to sas?" Hearing this, I couldn't help but look at the officer in front of me for a longer time.
His military rank should be a lieutenant colonel. When I shook hands just now, I clearly felt a thick calluse on his right index finger. It was obviously made by a long-term trigger pull. Although his appearance is ordinary, he looks like a
Ordinary British soldiers, you may even think that they are "out of time" soldiers from the wrinkles at the corners of their eyes... What we mean by "out of time" refers to veterans who have reached a certain age, although they have experience,
However, it is inevitable that physical strength will decline and slow reaction speed will not be suitable for going to the battlefield.
However, I obviously didn't see these in the eyes of this lieutenant colonel, but instead felt a faint murderous aura. Just looking at this point, I have reason to believe that he is not inferior to young people.
The reason is that old age or not, in fact, a large part of it depends on mentality and self-confidence. This is why some people still feel that they are full of energy before retirement but feel that they are much older as soon as they retire.
"Sorry!" said the Lieutenant Colonel: "I am Lieutenant Colonel Kent, the commander of the sas unit of the special fleet!"
"I'm honored to see you!" I thought to myself that the rank of Sas is not high. For example, this commander is just a lieutenant colonel.
But this seems to be in line with the organization of the special forces... The number of special forces is small, for example, this time the sass went on a battle with the special mixed fleet. It is not surprising that the supreme commander is a lieutenant colonel. Just like us
Synthetic Battalion... As the supreme commander, I am just a battalion commander!
But military rank does not seem to be very important to the special forces, because as special forces, they have a transcendent status compared to ordinary forces... No matter what military rank it is, ordinary forces only need to see the shoulders of sas players as soon as they see them.
The icon with the wings and daggers on it, and the line "whodareswins" below it, was immediately convinced. Just as Major Will had to whisper to a lieutenant sas before.
"Col. Yang Xuefeng!" Lieutenant Colonel Kent welcomed me into the cabin and said, "I heard that you participated in the Afghan War and fought with the Soviets, but I don't know that you are also proficient in special operations!"
I was shocked when I heard this and thought to myself that Lieutenant Colonel Kent had a good eye. He knew from my performance in the exercise that we have also trained in special operations subjects, otherwise we would not have taken every step of them.
All actions are estimated so accurately.
At the same time, I realized that the purpose of sas to let me come here may not be as simple as they said to assist them in combat, but there is a very likely intention to try how much we have.
This should be said to be normal. First of all, as a special forces unit, especially Kent is still a lieutenant colonel, so they are born to be sensitive to information... Special forces, from some aspects, are to obtain reliable intelligence and
Information and hit it with one hit with this information.
Secondly, Kent used to think that China did not have special forces, but now it seems that this is not the case. So, as both special forces, they certainly want to know which one is better than that of our potential competitor.
In this way, if we become opponents on the battlefield in the future, we will be mentally prepared.
Of course I wouldn't be so stupid at this time. For the sake of face or honor, I would reveal our family's assets to Kent to know.
"I think this is a compliment!" I replied with a smile: "But I am ashamed of 'proficient in special operations'. As we all know, China does not have any special forces!"
"As for why we won this exercise!" I paused for a while when I recalled, and then continued: "I think it's very likely that besides luck, we've participated in many battles, especially in
The reason why we fought face-to-face with the Soviet Airborne Forces, which is the Soviet special forces, on the battlefield of Afghanistan!”
"Well! I heard about it too!" Ken nodded: "It is said that you have fought with the Alpha troops, and they have suffered losses!"
"It's true!" I said: "It's because we have fought wars with special forces that we are not unfamiliar with aircraft and parachutes. It's obvious that this experience also played a role in the exercise.
We cannot say that we are proficient in special operations, but know how to fight against special forces!”
Lieutenant Colonel Kent couldn't help but nod.
This is my cleverness. When I answered his words, I did not simply deny them or just say that they were all the reasons for luck. Instead, I proposed a reason that is completely convincing to mislead Kent to consider it in this direction.
.
"As for being proficient in special operations..." I said: "To be honest, we have thought about it too. After all, we have fought with the Soviet special forces and knew the superiority of special tactics. But due to the limitations of conditions... you know, we
Helicopters and other equipment, such as communication systems and reconnaissance systems, simply do not meet the requirements of special operations.
so……"
I spread my hands helplessly.
"I regret you!" Kent obviously believed my words: "I fully believe that if you have these conditions, it will be enough to build an excellent special forces!"
"I think so too!" I was filled with regret.
Suddenly I found myself becoming more and more suitable for being an actor. It seems that it is not easy to be a commander, because it is in this position that forces me to learn to "talk the truth".
"This is the situation!" When he walked into the bed cabin of Kent as the command center, Kent quickly showed his style of doing things. He even gave me some rest or introduced his assistant to the opening remarks.
No, just headed straight to the topic and pointed to the map and said, "I think you have guessed that we had a difficult time landing on the island of Horse. In fact, we were planning to land on the island of Horse from the beginning, but we couldn't get it.
Come up with a satisfying plan!”
"How could this happen?" I couldn't help but feel a little surprised when I heard this.
I didn't pretend to do it, because historical knowledge tells me that the British army did not encounter much resistance when landing on the Cambridge Island. Of course, except for the Argentine Air Force launching a fierce attack when the British army landed. As for the Cambridge Island,
Let’s go to the Argentine Army... As mentioned before, two hundred people died, hundreds were injured, and the remaining more than 10,000 people surrendered.
How can such a force still cause a headache for Sas?
But thinking about it is indeed possible. First of all, Sas didn't know that this would be the case with the Argentine Army on the Cavaliers. In fact, no one expected this, because the British army thought that the Argentine Navy would not go to war at this time.
That was because the submarines and anti-submarine equipment were too behind, and the Argentine Air Force was so brave, so it was taken for granted... The Argentine Army would not be much worse.
So they had a headache when facing tens of thousands of Argentine troops on the Cavaliers Island, not to mention that these Argentine troops still gained a foothold on the island, while more than 10,000 British troops were going to land on the beach.
What's more, there are reasons why everything is difficult at the beginning, especially the special forces have to use this 400-man army to open up the situation on the island of Horse, where tens of thousands of Argentine troops are stationed. (To be continued...)
