Several artillery positions spaced a hundred meters apart were quickly constructed, and Zhang Jianxing conducted pre-war mobilization in accordance with the army's practice.
Standing on a dirt slope more than three meters high, with a dark head in front of you, this is the property of the Third Artillery Company.
"Comrades! I'm afraid time is very tight. Fighting will start at any time. The troops in front need the support of our artillery company. This confrontation exercise between the Red and Blue Army is a good opportunity for us to show off our skills. The sweat and blood we usually sweat,
The hardships you eat, the calluses on your hands, and the sunburned skin on your body are all for this moment! To win the war! Let me ask you, why do you want to win the war?!"
His sharp eyes like a hawk swept across the entire silent team and every dark face.
No soldier answered, and the team was very quiet.
"It's for honor! For the honor of the military!" he said loudly.
Everyone continued to be silent.
Zhang Jianxing's fist was waving hard in the air, as if he wanted to smash the air.
"The equipment and technology of the Blue Army are much stronger than ours. So far, no Red Army has been able to defeat them in all the confrontation exercises at this synthetic base. But what I want to say is that the past does not mean the present. Who are we? We
We are the heroic 22nd Division, and we are the glorious Third Artillery Battalion Company! Our predecessors climbed over snow-capped mountains, walked through grasslands, and participated in two of the three major battles. They faced a greater power disparity than today.
opponents, but they didn't flinch! Today, let the blue troops in front know how powerful our 22nd Division is! Know how powerful our third artillery battalion company is! Do you think it's okay?"
"good!"
"Louder!"
"good!"
The sound swept past like a wave, and the sound had the momentum of swallowing up mountains and rivers.
"What is the slogan of our third artillery company!?" Zhang Jianxing asked in a hoarse voice.
"The third artillery battery is a piece of steel! It would rather break than bend!"
"The third artillery battery is a piece of steel! It won't bend even if it is twisted!"
"The third artillery battery is a piece of steel! It won't bend even if it is twisted!"
The majestic slogans echoed on the grassland...
Zhang Jianxing came down the slope with satisfaction and saw Deputy Company Commander Huang Zhonghua walking towards him. He smiled bitterly and shook his head as he walked.
"Where did you go just now? Why are you laughing?" Zhang Jianxing asked.
Huang Zhonghua said: "I just went to check on the situation in the cooking class, and it's time to prepare breakfast."
The deputy company commander is also in charge of logistics, and Huang Zhonghua is responsible for that.
Zhang Jianxing turned around and saw that the Type 97 cooking truck was still parked next to the queue, but the cooking team was nowhere to be seen.
"Where are the people?" He was a little strange.
"Over there." Huang Zhonghua turned around and pointed to the distance and said.
Zhang Jianxing looked in the direction Huang Zhonghua pointed, but saw nothing.
"Where?"
"In the big bomb crater." Huang Zhonghua smiled: "About a hundred meters away, there is a relatively hidden large crater. It was blown up during previous exercises. The soldiers in the cooking squad ran into the crater to dig out smoke stoves for cooking.
Already."
"You're leaving a good cooking cart unused and digging a smoke stove?" Zhang Jianxing's face sank and he said angrily: "What the hell are you doing?"
"It was a temporary decision made by Yin Xiancong, the cooking squad leader. It is said that it was Qin Fei's suggestion." Huang Zhonghua said.
"That soldier from the military reconnaissance battalion?" Zhang Jianxing asked, "What does he want to do?"
During the half month since Qin Fei came to the company, he made bed every day and did not participate in training. Although Zhang Jianxing was unhappy, he could understand it.
The Military Reconnaissance Battalion is a very powerful unit. The scouts have always been proud of themselves. No one who is sent to the grassroots artillery company will be moody, let alone the cooking squad.
"He just gave me a proposal." Huang Zhonghua took out his cigarette, lit a fire, and said, "Let's send some people to set up a cordon near the artillery position."
"Warning line?" Zhang Jianxing was a little unhappy when he heard this, "He ordered us to come?"
Huang Zhonghua said with a smile: "He said he had a premonition."
"What premonition?"
Huang Zhonghua said: "The scout's premonition."
"Call him over!" Zhang Jianxing was a little angry.
When will it be the turn of a private to command several artillery battery officers?
When Qin Feigang was sent to the Third Artillery Battery, Zhang Jianxing was extremely happy. After all, he was a soldier of the reconnaissance battalion. He heard that he had won the first place in the group army scout competition. At the beginning of the year, he even participated in the army training as a top shooter in the military region.
This is definitely a talented man with a hundred hats. He will be a well-known military backbone wherever he is placed. For military officers, this is a treasure! If Qin Fei is placed in the combat squad and serves as the squad leader of the benchmark artillery squad,
The whole company can make them howl!
Unexpectedly, the military staff officer who sent Qin Fei down immediately poured cold water on Zhang Jianxing, saying that the soldier could only be put in the cooking class and was not allowed to participate in training. He must be carefully supervised. This was a party committee directly under the group army.
decision.
What does the military party committee mean? Isn’t this nonsense? It’s simply a waste of talent! What mistake did Qin Fei, who had only held the rank of private for a short time, make?
Although Zhang Jianxing could not guess the reason, he knew very well that Qin Fei must have caused a lot of trouble. Otherwise, how could an outstanding special forces soldier who ranked first in the group army scout competition end up in such a situation?
Is he really an assassin? Looking for trouble? Zhang Jianxing was filled with doubts.
Half a minute later, Qin Fei ran up to Zhang Jianxing and saluted.
"Report to the company commander, private Qin Fei is here to report."
"Qin Fei, tell me your premonition." Zhang Jianxing said with a frown.
"It's just my own intuition!" Qin Fei said, "A scout's intuition."
"Intuition!?" Zhang Jianxing almost scolded his mother, and said in a more serious tone: "This is a serious exercise, you kid, don't make international jokes with me, don't think that I dare not deal with you!"
"I have a basis for saying that." Qin Fei's expression did not change.
"Tell me, what's the basis?"
"The special operations brigade of the Blue Army participating in the confrontation this time was transferred from the C Military Region, and its members are all veterans of the special brigade of the military region. I had contact with them when I participated in the army's elite shooting training at the beginning of the year, and I have some feelings about them.
learn."
"Is this your basis?" Zhang Jianxing frowned even more.
"When I was bored, I studied last year's Red and Blue Army confrontation exercises. The 131st Brigade of the Red Army died in this way last year. The Blue Army's special operations detachment penetrated into the rear and took out all the artillery and missile positions. The front troops were in key battles.
There was no fire support at all, causing the two armored regiments in frontal defense to be completely annihilated."
"We only need 30 minutes to complete the fire coverage of the entire company, which is enough to stop the Blue Army's armored group charge in the 2C area. We will change the artillery positions after 30 minutes." Zhang Jianxing is full of confidence in his command ability, "Are you sure the Blue Army's armored group is charging?
Can the army’s special operations team find us?”
"Those are not ordinary special operations team members, they are special forces at the military level. Let alone looking for artillery positions, they can dig three feet into the ground to find the command post even if it is hidden underground." Qin Fei replied with certainty.
Zhang Jianxing asked: "How many people are needed to defend a special operations unit?"
If the Blue Army's special operations detachment really attacks, Qin Fei knows very well that even if the entire artillery battery is filled up, it will not be able to stop them. Those are all elusive and unconventional guys. Each of them is slipperier than a loach. With the artillery's
Tactical literacy is simply impossible to fight against.
"It's not possible for the whole company to go up." Qin Fei said without reservation: "But at least it can delay their actions. As long as their actions are blocked, the firepower of the artillery company can provide more support for the front line and destroy more Blue Army tanks.
.It is our mission to hinder the Blue Army's attack and buy time, even if it costs the entire artillery battery."
"You are very direct." Qin Fei's truth was not pleasant to hear. Although Zhang Jianxing knew that the situation was true, he was still somewhat unhappy.
After thinking for a moment, he asked again: "You seem to be very familiar with special operations."
Qin Fei said: "Yes, this is my specialty."
"Bullshit!" Zhang Jianxing snorted in his nostrils: "Don't think that since I haven't eaten pork, I haven't seen pigs running around. How did you learn this?"
Qin Fei's face was a little strange. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "I come from a military family. My father has participated in actual combat before and is from the reconnaissance brigade. When I was a child, he didn't treat me like an ordinary child. It can be said that he taught me
Become his soldier."
"Oh! It turns out he is a descendant of a scout." Zhang Jianxing suddenly realized.
Now he had to make a choice, whether he, the captain commander, should listen to the advice of a superior soldier and squeeze out at least one-third of the company's troops for security support.
Zhang Jianxing looked at Qin Fei with his eyes, and suddenly waved his hand to let him leave.
"Well, I understand. You go back and cook first." After Qin Fei left, Zhang Jianxing asked Huang Zhonghua: "About how many people can we squeeze out?"
When Qin Fei walked away, Huang Zhonghua was a little surprised and couldn't help but ask: "Company Commander, do you really listen to this guy?"
"Why don't you listen?" Zhang Jianxing said with a bitter smile: "Just because he is a top-class soldier?"
Huang Zhonghua smiled and said: "Do you think this guy is reliable?"
Zhang Jianxing looked at Qin Fei's figure intently.
"Don't tell me, I really like this guy. Don't you think this Qin Fei is born to be a soldier? Lao Huang, don't underestimate him. A soldier can win a group army reconnaissance in the second year after joining the army.
How can he come first in the military competition without any talent? I have a hunch that he won't stay in our artillery battery for long."
"Is it that exaggerated?" Huang Zhonghua laughed.
Zhang Jianxing said: "I have been a soldier for more than ten years, and I will never make a mistake."
"Okay, then listen to him and squeeze out people to build a cordon." Huang Zhonghua calculated and said: "But in order to ensure the frequency of attack, each gun must protect at least 6 people. According to this theory, our entire company can
We can squeeze out forty more people."
"Forty people...are really not enough for the special operations team to fill our teeth..." Zhang Jianxing sighed.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Go, squeeze out all the people you can from the company headquarters, gather together forty-five soldiers, and ask the instructor to lead the team to make a pocket on the outside. If those Blue Army special forces members dare to come, they will not be able to defeat them."
I have to tear off a piece of flesh from them! If all the people responsible for defense are eliminated, start from the third platoon, and I will move up one platoon after another. When all the soldiers are gone, the officers will move in! Damn it, I don’t believe in that evil anymore.
!Everyone in their special brigade is so clueless!?”
