1627 Rise of the South China Sea

Chapter 1777

Relying on its outstanding achievements over the years, the Haihan Army is now one of the most famous and powerful armies in East Asia. For the outside world, apart from its strong ships and sharp guns, the Haihan Army is also widely talked about. The famous generals of Haihan.Among them, Qian Tiandun, who has been fighting overseas for nearly ten years and has brought out an elite special combat independent regiment, has attracted the most attention.

Because he leads troops overseas all the year round, Qian Tiandun actually rarely appears in the public eye, and even many people in his country don't know what General Qian, who wins battles every year, looks like.However, there are quite a lot of rumors about this ever-victorious general. There are at least dozens of storytelling passages and chapter novels created by the folks with him as the main character.As for the wild legends like Wuqu Xingxia and Guan Erye's reincarnation, there are countless of them.

Even within the Haihan military, there are quite a few soldiers who regard Qian Tiandun as a role model and idol, and are determined to become a famous general like him.Even Qian Tiandun's reclusive living habits have become one of the characteristics that military officers are eager to emulate.

But having said that, Qian Tiandun's ability to stand out in the Haihan Army is not only due to his own hard power, but also to a certain extent, due to the fact that the situation makes heroes.At that time, there were not many professional soldiers who could lead troops in the time travel group, and Qian Tiandun's military quality was indeed the best among them. A lineage unit was formed in Annan, which is the embryonic form of today's special warfare independent regiment.

Afterwards, the executive committee also gave Qian Tiandun full trust and support, allowing his troops to be equipped with the most advanced weapons and serve as the main combat force in various battles, large and small. After several years of military exploits, he finally became a famous general of Qian Tiandun's generation. tall image.Of course, Haihan’s publicity department played an important role in it. Many folk stories about Qian Tiandun actually have traces of official operations behind them. Creating such a heroic image is also very positive for Haihan. significance.

However, Qian Tiandun himself is not particularly concerned about these external fame. He has spent more than half of the past ten years overseas, and he has long been far away from the power center of the Traveling Group, and he does not have much pursuit of material comfort. As soon as the military parade and exercises on the [-]st were over, Qian Tiandun gave himself a vacation and took his wife Luo Wudan out to sea to enjoy the holiday.

In fact, Qian Tiandun, like other military generals, has received many invitations for banquets and visits, but he is not very interested in these social activities, and those who are not familiar with them politely decline, while those who are acquainted send someone to send a copy It is reasonable to thank the gift in the past, but the person is not polite.Although the airs seem to be a bit big, but generally no one can care about these things with him, and it is a great face to have a response.

The people sent by Yan Chujie first went to Qian Tiandun's residence in Sanya, but of course they were in vain. After many inquiries, they found out that Qian Tiandun and his wife had gone out to sea from Shengli Port.Immediately, he rushed to the port to check the records. Qian Tiandun borrowed the fast catamaran registered under the name of the North American Gang, brought enough crew, and supplied the food and water needed for ten days. Stay a few more days.

As for the specific whereabouts, Qian Tiandun did not leave any information at the port.And the only way to contact him at the moment is probably to talk to the radio station on the Speedy number.But this matter must be authorized by Yan Chujie after approval, so the officer in charge of this matter ran back and forth between Victory Fort and the port a few times, and finally had to inform Yan Chujie of the situation, and he personally dealt with it.

After Yan Chujie understood the situation, he couldn't laugh or cry. Of course, there was nothing wrong with Qian Tiandun's actions. This is also his due right. It's just that he just happened to need to ask for his opinion at this juncture, but he couldn't find anyone. It was a bit troublesome.There is indeed a radio station on the Speed ​​​​ship, and it is a good thing that was brought over ten years ago, but in order to save the service life, it will not be turned on at any time even when it is out to sea.However, with Qian Tiandun's habits, he probably wouldn't take the initiative to turn on the radio for nothing, and it might take several days to contact him.

At this time, Qian Tiandun and his wife Luo Wudan were lying side by side on the beach chair of the Speedy, enjoying sunbathing. There were all kinds of fresh fruits on the small table next to them. The space on the rear deck was reserved for the two of them.

"The radio station is turned off, and now no one can find me. Finally, I can live a few days of peace and quiet." Qian Tiandun said calmly: "Don't you always complain that you don't have a holiday, this time you can enjoy it quietly for a few days , we will go back to Sanya when you have had enough fun."

Luo Wudan said: "I'm afraid you are still worried about the troops."

"The army has nothing to do recently!" Qian Tiandun replied lazily: "The executive committee has approved the independent regiment to stay in Sanya until the new garrison order comes down. I guess it's either Hainan Island or Annan. In short, it should be I can live a stable life for a year or two. Even Takahashi Minami has sent me a vacation report. I have already granted him a half-month vacation to let him have a good rest, go on blind dates a few more times, and try to solve his personal problems as soon as possible. gone."

"Don't talk about Gao Qiaonan, when will our family's affairs be resolved?" Luo Wudan asked.

They got married and had a son, who is already two years old. However, Qian Tiandun had been commanding operations in Liaodong for the past two years, and the local living conditions were very difficult, so Qian Tiandun arranged Luo Wudan, mother and son, in Zhoushan, Zhejiang. , The family also gathers less and leaves more.It was fine when the child was young, but Luo Wudan hopes to send the child back to Sanya for education when he reaches school age in a few years.After all, the top teacher resources of Haihan Kingdom are all concentrated in Sanya, and many knowledge that only time travelers can master cannot be learned overseas. The biological children of the time travelers must be sent back to Sanya to go to school.

One of the purposes of the executive committee's plan to concentrate educational resources was to force these local officials and generals who are overseas to send their offspring back to Sanya, so that while these second-generation children receive education, it is not a bad idea. A hostage in disguise.However, everyone knows that such an arrangement is also for the stability of the country's political situation, so as not to cause conflicts among officials who hold power outside, so no one will ever question this approach—whoever opposes it will be moved other thoughts.

With Qian Tiandun's status, it is natural to arrange such a small matter. There will be relevant departments in Sanya to be in charge of contacting him. It doesn't matter whether he returns to Sanya or not.However, Luo Wudan loves her son very much, and she will definitely come back with her son as an accompanying student. Of course, she also hopes that Qian Tiandun can move his residence back to Sanya.Such a family reunion can give the son a complete family environment in the future.

But Luo Wudan also knows that this is easy to think about, but it will face many difficulties in doing it.First of all, her husband is the most famous general in the Haihan army, commanding the most elite combat troops in Haihan, and participating in most of the foreign wars, and wars in the process of Haihan's foreign expansion in the future are inevitable The land needs Qian Tiandun and his direct troops to participate in the war. I am afraid that it is difficult to spend much time in Sanya to live a peaceful life. This time, it is very rare to be able to return to Sanya for vacation by taking advantage of the tenth anniversary.

Secondly, even if the Executive Committee agrees to allow Qian Tiandun and the Special Operations Independent Regiment to return to the south to station, they should not be deployed in the Sanya garrison. fighting power.Of course, if Qian Tiandun voluntarily gave up the command of the independent regiment and returned to Victory Fort to become a Taiping general, no one could force him to do so, but Luo Wudan knew that this was impossible, and her husband The enthusiasm for marching and fighting is far above everything else, even more than the concern for their mother and son.

On the one hand, it is Qian Tiandun's love for the military career, and he hopes to continue commanding the army to fight; on the other hand, the executive committee and the country also place high hopes on Qian Tiandun, and continue to expand the territory for the country in the days to come , Kill the enemy and make meritorious service.Under such circumstances, it was basically impossible for Luo Wudan to persuade Qian Tiandun to give up his military power and return to Sanya as a civilian military officer.

But even knowing this situation, Luo Wudan still wants to try to persuade her husband to change his mind, at least let him have a rough plan for his life in a few years.Otherwise, when the children go to school, the couple will still live in two places, and they will not see each other for a long time, it will be really a torment for Luo Wudan.

Qian Tiandun didn't know what his wife was thinking, he just stood in his position, there were still too many things that he couldn't let go of, and he was indeed unwilling to let go of his military power and go home to retire at this stage.Ten years ago, he chose to give up everything to participate in the time-traveling operation. His main purpose was to make contributions in the military field and become a famous general in the history of war.

So far, Qian Tiandun has gone relatively smoothly on the road to realizing his dream. Whether it is the source of troops, equipment, military expenses, or authority to operate, Qian Tiandun has almost received the best supply, and his record is even better. Never lost a battle.Both the government and the people have given him extremely high praise, and he has even begun to transition from the image of a "famous general" to a "war god".

Qian Tiandun did not become inflated because of this. He knew very well how much of the resources he could control depended on the country's supply. The so-called famous generals were actually related to Haihan in terms of military system, military technology, strategy and tactics, and logistical support. The advantages he has are inseparable, and it is not just him alone that can support the dazzling record of the independent group.If Yan Chujie, Roger or Wang Tom were to command this army, I believe the record they could achieve would not be much worse than him.

Moreover, this model of elite troops is constantly being replicated in the Haihan Army. Harukon’s Cavalry Battalion, Roger’s South China Sea Independent Battalion, and Wang Tom’s Marine Corps all developed in a similar model. The combat effectiveness of the special forces is not much worse than that of the early special warfare battalions.This meant that not all of the tough combat missions would be handed over to Qian Tiandun's troops, and several other troops also had the strength to fight for these missions.

Of course, with Haihan's current military strength, if they are facing a large-scale battle in another country, these elite troops have to work together and cooperate with each other.For example, the two battles in the Jinzhou Isthmus and Manila, the south and the north, were the result of several elite teams fighting together.Although Qian Tiandun's troops acted as the main force, the record was indeed won by several troops together.So he knew that although the outside world gave him the title of a famous general, in fact, the military exploits he had achieved at this stage were not his personal credit.

If Qian Tiandun wants to continue to prove his ability, he must have more opportunities to command operations, and staying in Sanya as a Taiping General means that he will give up many combat tasks, which is impossible for him. an accepted situation.

"Our family's affairs... don't worry! Isn't Xiaobao still young?" Qian Tiandun didn't want to respond to his wife's question directly, so he used the procrastination formula as usual.

"How small is small, how big is big!" Luo Wudan was not happy when he heard his tone: "Didn't you say that you can arrange it immediately when you transfer to Sanya? The positions of the Ministry of National Defense are full of carrots and pits. If you don't say hello earlier, how will the Executive Committee and the Ministry of National Defense arrange errands for you?"

Qian Tiandun replied helplessly: "This kind of transfer is not something I can do whatever I want, I still have to listen to the arrangements from above!"

Luo Wudan sat up from the beach chair, and said to Qian Tiandun very seriously: "Think about it, with your current qualifications and military achievements, if you take the initiative to apply to be transferred back to Victory Fort to sit in the office, except for the deputy minister, What other position can I arrange for you?"

Luo Wudan's words are not too exaggerated. Among the big men in the military, Yan Chujie's position is basically unshakable, and other than him, the other leading generals have been away for a long time, so the Ministry of Defense currently has no The Deputy Minister exists.In terms of seniority, then Qian Tiandun and Tom Wang are probably the most competitive candidates. Tom Wang should have a little more advantage because he is the commander of the navy.

But Wang Tom is more free and easy than Qian Tiandun, and he has not married and had children so far, and his goal is the same as Qian Tiandun's, and he also hopes to realize his dream of becoming a famous general by leading troops to fight.Haihan's long-term plan based on the ocean actually gave Wang Tom more room to play, so in the past few years, Wang Tom has also continued to fight in the north and south, and almost participated in the sea without hesitation. Han's wars in the last two or three years.

If Wang Tom doesn't return to Sanya to sit in town, it means that Qian Tiandun has no competitors. The situation Luo Wudan analyzed is indeed very likely to come true.
