I asked you to repeat your senior year of high school, but did you miss out on joining the military

Chapter 527: Dispatched, the Heavy-Armored Beast Awakens

There is a reason why it is said that being familiar with the terrain can help one seize the initiative in war.

If you are familiar with the entire battlefield, you only need to know the enemy's cluster organization, and then analyze the terrain, it is easy to determine the enemy's necessary garrison locations.

Some people may think that in the information age, this thing is dispensable. On the contrary, as long as we fight a land battle, as long as not all the equipment can fly.

Taking terrain that benefits us and giving it away that harms the enemy, thus accelerating the increase and decrease of our own and the enemy's power, will always be the most important task in a battle.

Chen Jun listened to the whistling cold wind outside the board house and thought for a long time. He decided that he should go out and check it out tomorrow before making any plans.

There was no point in sitting there and thinking hard. After all, he knew too little about this area.

You won't get any good ideas from guessing.

"stand up!!"

Chen Jun was hunched over and smoking when Political Commissar Xu, who was wearing glasses and reading a book behind him, suddenly shouted.

Chen Jun was so frightened that he quickly threw away his cigarette and stood up, but the door of the wooden house where they lived had already been pushed open.

Li Haiyao walked in with a smile on her face, holding a few food boxes in her hands, and following behind her was Li Hongtao.

"Hello, Chief!!"

Xu Wensheng and Chen Jun hurriedly saluted.

"Okay, okay, don't be so strict here."

Li Hongtao smelled cigarettes in the dormitory. He frowned and looked at Chen Jun: "Smoke less."

"Their construction conditions are not as good as ours. There are tarpaulin tents and hardboard houses everywhere. We need to pay attention to fire prevention."

"Yes, Chief!!"

Chen Jun responded awkwardly.

Li Haiyao raised her hand and gestured to the lunch box in her hand: "Quick, quick, move the table over here, Chen Jun. Uncle is afraid that you won't be used to the food in their cafeteria."

"I specifically asked the comrades accompanying me to prepare a separate dinner and bring it over to eat together."

Seeing the whole family reunited, Old Xu was so envious.

Damn it, I haven’t even eaten at Damao’s cafeteria yet, how come you can’t get used to the food?

He was the one who really couldn't get used to Damao's black bread with borscht and that bunch of stewed stuff, but with Li Hongtao here, Political Commissar Xu would rather go to the cafeteria to eat than have the nerve to stay.

"Chief, Haiyao, you guys chat, um... I..."

"Sit down and eat together."

Before Old Xu could finish his words, Li Hongtao interrupted him.

"It's just a few home-cooked dishes. You're welcome."

"Yes, Chief!!"

So, the two people who were originally bored in the dormitory took action immediately.

Chen Jun was responsible for moving the table over and opening the food boxes with Li Haiyao. The dishes were indeed not rare.

One serving of stir-fried pork with chili peppers, one serving of stir-fried cabbage, one serving of stir-fried loofah with eggs and one serving of stewed broth.

The staple food is rice porridge with big steamed buns, and the portions are quite large.

The dishes are very ordinary, but in a foreign country with a cold wind blowing outside, they do have a unique flavor.

Xu Wensheng was not idle either. He moved all the chairs in the room and wiped them clean. Now there was a place for four people to have dinner together.

Li Hongtao knew that several of his juniors would not eat peacefully in front of him, so he did not greet them intentionally. He just picked up his chopsticks first and signaled them to eat quickly.

Then he said, "Chen Jun, your 179th Brigade is participating in this operation. As the commander of the vanguard, what are your plans next?"

"Report."

When Chen Jun heard this, he was about to stand up to respond, but Li Hongtao raised his hand and pressed him down: "Okay, okay, sit down and talk."

"Just tell me what you think."

"Yes." Chen Jun continued without thinking: "I plan to get a detailed understanding of this area first."

"Draw a rough battle map."

"So we need to understand the terrain first?" After listening to Chen Jun's plan, Li Hongtao didn't say it was right or wrong.

He just nodded: "I know the terrain. I can't provide you with much help here. However, in the north, we have arranged several squadrons of Jincheng Armed Police Hydropower Network to come here and build temporary base stations."

"They may be able to provide you with a lot of help."

Li Hongtao's seemingly unintentional words made Chen Jun's eyes light up.

Yes.

How could he forget this?

It's no wonder that Chen Jun was so excited. A leader once said that you should look at the map before going into battle. You should be able to see the map thoroughly and memorize it by heart.

Then the battle is already half won.

This is not an exaggeration at all. If Chen Jun is not familiar with the battlefield, how can he judge the enemy's depth and intentions when he is in command?
How can we determine the enemy's marching route and various defenses?

Complex terrain can create a large space for maneuver, making the entire battlefield infinitely more complex.

It is said that artillery fire, satellite reconnaissance and various high-tech means can greatly reduce the constraints of terrain on warfare.

If this is the case, then why do some regions still use the Type 15 light tank?

Let alone bombing the area with artillery fire, even if it is a nuclear strike, the killing effect will be very different if it is dropped on a relatively flat area or on an area full of hills and gullies.

Not to mention a heavily armed unit like the 179th Brigade.

Chen Jun needs to make all the arrangements in advance.

The four of them sat together for dinner. Except for Li Hongtao asking about the combat arrangements at the beginning, they basically didn't mention it again.

When chatting, the words and expressions are all about the care of an elder for a younger person, such as asking when they will have children.

Let's ask Li Haiyao about her plans. After all, she graduated from the National University of Defense Technology. Even if her major is only statistics, she should have a specific plan in the next few years after graduation.

It is certainly good for military couples to work in the same unit.

It was just that Li Haiyao was sent to the 179th Brigade to work in logistics because the two young people were interested and the elders could not interfere too much. However, Li Haiyao's focus was not on logistics, but on statistics or data analysis in the research institute, providing scientific basis for some designs or decisions.

Of course, having experience in front-line field troops will be better for subsequent development.

In addition, she has worked in the war zone archives for several years, and all conditions are ripe. No one will say anything if she is transferred to the war zone research institute.

This meal is a time for chatting about family matters and having a heart-to-heart talk.

Even if it's inappropriate in this situation, there's nothing we can do about it.

The whole family wears military uniforms, and they have responsibilities and are often forced to do things against their will.

We rarely meet each other once every one or two years.

What's more, when Li Hongtao saw that his niece was only 179 or years old and already had white hair, he knew how tiring the work of the th Brigade had been in the past two years.

There is nothing wrong with talking about these things.

Political Commissar Xu did not say a word during the entire process and just listened to their plans silently.

The meal ended in a pleasant atmosphere.

. . . . . . . . . .

And starting from March 3th.

Every day Chen Jun would drive out with a few staff officers to survey the terrain. Of course, 600 square kilometers was more than he could handle even if he was exhausted.

According to Li Hongtao's reminder, Chen Jun is also a frequent visitor to the armed police force.

What to say at this time.

They are all in a foreign country, and they still want to fight against the Russians. As a commander, Chen Jun comes to ask for help, so how can he not respond?
Base station data technicians and hydropower technicians have become Chen Jun's best helpers in surveying the terrain.

In Chebarku, Chen Jun ran around every day either in the strong wind or in the freezing cold, getting familiar with the terrain bit by bit.

At the 179th Brigade camp, the soldiers' enthusiasm for training was unprecedentedly high. The rumble of tanks and training slogans echoed throughout the camp.

Finally, the day of departure arrived.

Morning of April 2018, 4.

Feng Qiuhu, who stayed behind in the brigade, was sitting in the office looking through the brigade's roster.

The staff officer in the combat duty room suddenly rushed into Brigade Feng's office with an anxious look on his face, and shouted excitedly: "Report to the brigade commander, there is a telegram from the Joint Staff Headquarters."

"We need to move out immediately."

"What? Show it to me!!"

Feng Qiuhu didn't bother to study the roster anymore. He quickly stood up and rubbed his hands on his trouser legs.

He took the message.

[Military mobilization meeting, Joint Staff, National Defense Order: Code-named "Peace Exercise" will officially start at 2018:8 on August 3, 12. I wish my field soldiers good luck! ! I wish my field soldiers a victorious return, and I wish my motherland prosperity! ! ! ]

"Brigade Commander, there are still three hours until the scheduled departure time. Should we sound the alarm now?"

The war situation staff tried to ask.

Because according to convention, as soon as each unit's combat duty window receives a combat order, the duty personnel must immediately sound the call for a general assembly.

But this time there were some exceptions. Only their unit was dispatched, and time was not so tight, so he came over to ask for instructions.

"nonsense!!"

Feng Qiuhu heard this and glared: "It took a month to prepare, a month to prepare, and a month to wait."

"The order has already been given, so why ask?"

"Order, sound the alarm immediately and require all personnel of the brigade to assemble."

"No one from the entire brigade will be left behind. All of them will go to the front line."

"Yes!!"

Woo.
A low voice suddenly resounded throughout the camp.

Inside the headquarters of the 10th Battalion of the 1st Brigade, the piercing sound of the air raid sirens instantly pierced the sky, and all the soldiers looked up at the source of the sound.

Then he reacted.

clap clap clap! ! !
All equipment warehouses in the main camp opened their doors at the same time, and the searchlights inside the warehouses lit up one after another. The lights were like bullfights, piercing the sky.

The ten camps, like wild beasts crawling on the ground with their eyes closed and sleeping, suddenly opened their blood-red eyes.

Countless green military torrents began to gather in an orderly manner in various camps, fully armed and counting in formation.

The queue kept adjusting and moving, and the commands of "one, two, three, four" were heard one after another.

Several companies gathered into a battalion on the field, their combat boots hitting the ground like thunder, they stepped, stood at attention, and turned.

five minutes later.

"Comrade Battalion Commander, the participating troops of the Combined Battalion have been assembled and are all present. Please give your instructions."

"Comrade Battalion Commander, the participating artillery battalion troops have assembled and are all present. Please give your instructions."

"Comrade Battalion Commander, Anti-Aircraft Battalion."

Inside the brigade command room.

Fatty He had a grim expression on his face. He held a walkie-talkie in his hand and listened to the reports from all the battalions.

He stood at attention with a snap and raised his hand to salute: "Comrade Brigade Commander, all 6287 members of the brigade are here. Please give us your instructions!!"

"Connect the battalion radios."

"Yes!!"

Fatty He lowered his voice and gave the staff group the order to connect.

Radio waves, which travel at a speed of thousands of kilometers per second, are enough to transmit any instructions from the brigade commander to the ears of all officers and soldiers in the brigade.

At the same time, the staff groups of each battalion will transmit all the assembled projected images to the brigade headquarters via drone aerial views.

On the big screen in the command room, officers and soldiers of the entire brigade were ready to go, a team of thousands of people assembled.

It is enough to show the might of the army! So magnificent! ! !
