Northern suburbs of Baotou, special forces training ground.
With some money in his account, Xu Rui immediately circled a large piece of wasteland in the northern suburbs of Baotou and built a large training ground. This training ground included training grounds for infantry, cavalry, and armored troops, but it was hidden deepest and most mysterious at the same time.
It is also a training ground for special forces. There is a large birch forest here.
At this moment, Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng were standing on a wooden building, looking down at the training ground below.
On the training ground, more than two hundred Soviet special forces members were sweating profusely and training hard.
I watched one after another Soviet special forces team members quickly scale the high wall, cross the single-plank bridge, crawl over the barbed wire fence, and then sprint for 500 meters. After the sprint, there was no time to take a breath, and then came the moving target shooting. The performance was actually very good.
, after undergoing high-intensity physical training and skill training, he can still achieve a score of more than 90 rings!
It can be seen that Leng Tiefeng put a lot of thought into it and did not hide his secrets just because this unit was a Soviet special forces unit. This was also specifically requested by Xu Rui. He did not mind training a real special forces unit for the Soviet Union.
troops, but there were some things, such as taking medicinal baths to strengthen the body, which it was impossible to tell the Soviets.
There were also some powerful special operations tactics that were absolutely impossible to teach the Soviets.
"It looks good." Leng Tiefeng grinned and said, "But it just looks good."
After a slight pause, he added: "Elites are never trained, but are forged on the battlefield. To become a real special forces force, they must be tempered by blood and fire on the battlefield."
Xu Rui nodded and said: "There will be this opportunity, and it won't be long."
After thinking about it, Xu Rui added: "However, before officially going to the battlefield, we should arrange several mock confrontations and let Lang Ya teach them a lesson, so that they will not lose their lives because of their arrogance after they go to the battlefield."
"Okay." Leng Tiefeng said, "I'll make a training plan later."
"Very good, then I'll leave first, veteran, you continue." Xu Rui patted Leng Tiefeng on the shoulder, turned and left.
After leaving the special forces training ground, Xu Rui came to the armored training ground. On the training ground, a company of T-26 light tanks was simulating a group charge, but he saw more than a dozen light tanks pulling out on the open grassland.
They formed a sharp arrow formation, spitting out billowing black smoke, and charged forward at maximum speed.
While charging forward, more than ten main guns fired continuously.
The engine roared, the cannon roared, the tracks rolled, and smoke filled the sky.
The desert is vast and vast, and it really looks like it has the aura of iron blood galloping on the battlefield.
After a while, the training ended, and a dozen tanks slowed down and turned slowly.
Seeing Xu Rui standing outside the training ground, the leading T-26 tank immediately turned in one direction and drove straight towards Xu Rui. When it was less than two meters away, it stopped with a crunch, and then the turret
The top cover was opened, and Mei Jiuling, wearing a tank cap on his head, got out of the turret.
Mei Jiuling waved at Xu Rui and said, "Captain, why are you here?"
Xu Rui smiled and said: "I went to the special forces training camp and stopped by to see you."
After a pause, Xu Rui asked again: "How is the training of your tank battalion going?"
"The number of tanks is still a bit low. We can only train one platoon after another. The progress is too slow." When talking about the training, Mei Jiuling's expression immediately became serious and he said, "Commander, tanks assisted by the Soviet Union
When will the -34B tanks be in place? It will be mid-March soon."
The 96 T-34B tanks promised by Stalin have not yet arrived. However, this is not because he wants to default on the debt, or deliberately delays it. It is because even the Far Eastern Front has not yet equipped a T-34B tank.
So it had to be transported from the Ural Tank Factory via the Trans-Siberian Railway.
However, the transportation capacity of the Trans-Siberian Railway is too tight, and it has been unable to free up the transportation capacity to transport these T-34 tanks, so it has been delayed until now. However, the Soviet Union also made certain compensation, allowing Zhukov's Far East Front to transport additional tanks.
First, a T-26 tank company was provided for training by the Chahar Independent Regiment.
Mei Jiuling added: "Commander, you also know that the T-26 tank is a light tank, but the T-34B tank we will equip is a medium tank. The technical parameters of the two are completely different, and the driving requirements are also completely different.
They are different, so even if we have mastered the T-26, it will take some time to get familiar with it after switching to the T-34B."
After a slight pause, Mei Jiuling added: "If the tanks are still not in place before late March, then it will not be until at least mid-May that our tank battalion becomes combat effective!"
Xu Rui nodded and said, "Don't worry, the tank is already on the way."
Mei Jiuling didn't believe it: "Commander, you always say you are on the road. You have been on the road for almost a month. From Kulun to Baotou, it is only more than 900 kilometers. Does it take that long to walk?"
"
"I won't lie to you this time." Xu Rui said with a smile, "We are really on the way. We can reach Baotou in three days at most."
"Captain, are you telling the truth?" Mei Jiuling said happily after hearing this, "Can you really reach Baotou in three days?"
"Really." Xu Rui nodded with a smile and added, "But after the tanks are in place, you have to step up your training. You must have combat effectiveness before late April, do you hear me?"
"Captain, don't worry." Mei Jiuling stood at attention and said loudly, "I promise to complete the mission."
"Continue training." Xu Rui patted Mei Jiuling's tank cap, and Mei Jiuling immediately trotted back excitedly. After climbing up the turret, she didn't forget to turn around and salute Xu Rui, and then ducked in
out of the turret, and then the T-26 light tank immediately drove back into the formation, spewing black smoke.
Soon, a new group of tank soldiers started training again.
Xu Rui looked at it for a while, then continued walking forward and came to the cavalry training ground.
There are six cavalry training grounds, which can accommodate six cavalry battalions training at the same time.
Where Xu Rui is standing now is the training ground of the Sixth Cavalry Battalion. The Sixth Cavalry Battalion was expanded not long ago, and the battalion commander is Tiegang, who is known as the "Flower Horse Steel Sword". Tiegang is also the battalion of the cavalry battalion under the Meishan Independent Regiment.
Commander, he was appointed as the commander of the newly formed 6th Cavalry Battalion. It was well deserved and no one raised any questions.
Although one arm is missing, the impact on Iron Steel Riding is very limited.
The horses were galloping in the training ground, the iron steel was still galloping, and they waved their sabers, still as if they were practicing with a snow. When the horses and men passed by, the heads of the straw men on both sides of the training ground fell to the ground one after another. Such superb riding skills
, the fusion of swordsmanship and riding skills was simply miraculous, and every officer and soldier of the 6th Cavalry Battalion who lined up was dumbfounded.
It wasn't until Tiegang's demonstration was over that the officers and soldiers of the Sixth Cavalry Battalion reacted and applauded enthusiastically.
Tiegang signaled the officers and soldiers to be quiet, and was about to explain the essentials of riding. When he turned around, he suddenly saw Xu Rui standing on the side of the training ground. He quickly rode up to meet Xu Rui. He first saluted Xu Rui on horseback with a military salute, and then loudly
Said: "Report to the commander, the 6th Battalion of the Chahar Independent Regiment Cavalry is undergoing equestrian training. Please give instructions, battalion commander, Tiegang!"
Xu Rui returned the military salute and replied loudly: "Continue training."
"Yes!" Tiegang responded with a bang, then rode his horse back to the front of the queue and shouted sternly, "Did you see all the demonstrations I just performed clearly?"
"See clearly." More than two hundred officers and soldiers responded loudly.
"I can't hear you." Tie Gang said angrily, "Didn't you have breakfast?"
"See clearly!" More than two hundred officers and soldiers immediately roared at the top of their lungs with overwhelming force.
"Well, very good!" Tiegang nodded with satisfaction and added, "One row after another, you come first!"
More than twenty riders immediately rode out from the queue and quickly lined up on the training ground. Then with a loud shout from Tiegang, they spurred their horses on and galloped forward.
Xu Rui only stayed at the training ground of the 6th Cavalry Battalion for a few minutes, and then went to the training ground of the 3rd Infantry Battalion.
On the training ground, more than 2,000 officers and soldiers of the Third Battalion were training in full swing. Battalion Commander Huang Shouxin was not idle either, but personally took charge of the training of the guard platoon.
More than 2,000 remnants of the Dameishan Independent Regiment have been dispersed and consolidated into various infantry battalions of the Chahar Independent Regiment. They have all become grassroots commanders and combat backbones of each infantry battalion. After replenishing more than 2,000 veterans of the Dameishan Independent Regiment,
After that, the mental outlook of the infantry battalions of the Chahar Independent Regiment immediately improved.
Seeing Xu Rui coming, Huang Shouxin immediately arranged for the officers and soldiers of the guard platoon to rest where they were, and then quickly walked towards Xu Rui.
Before Huang Shouxin stood at attention and saluted before reporting, Xu Rui rushed to say: "Shouxin, I just came out to walk around and take a look. You don't have to worry about me and continue training."
Huang Shouxin said: "Brothers have been practicing all morning and it's time to take a break."
Xu Rui stopped asking for training and asked: "Shou Xin, how is the training going?"
"The situation is very good." Huang Shouxin replied, "Each banner has already conducted certain training when it established its militia brigades, so they all have a certain foundation. Now they are even more comfortable in training. It seems that a one-month foundation
The queue training can be shortened to at least half a month, and then various military skills training can be carried out."
According to the standards of the People's Liberation Army, basic queue training should take at least three months. However, this is a war period after all, not a peaceful era, so it would be good to spare one month for basic training. This is Xu Rui's mandatory requirement.
, other troops even only conduct basic training for half a month, or do not conduct it at all.
Xu Rui shook his head and said: "Keep your word, the one-month foundation cannot be reduced, it must be one month! I told you when I was in the youth training team, although the queue training is boring and boring, it seems to be of no use, but it is not!
Because this is a key step in gathering the collective will of an army!"
"Understood!" Huang Shouxin's expression immediately became serious.
Because collective will is a direct manifestation of combat effectiveness!
