From the 7th Steel Company to the Synthetic Division

Chapter 186: Hard control of the Red and Blue Army, dramatic ending!

There was limited space inside the helicopter cabin, and all the communications technicians who had already boarded were driven off by the spearhead reconnaissance squad.

The pilot in the cockpit noticed something unusual in the rear cabin, but it was too late to react.

Chengcai and Xie Chong appeared at the door of the cabin, with two guns pointed at them. Chengcai shouted, "Don't move. We have taken control of the helicopter. You are captured."

The helicopter, which was originally full of blue army personnel, thus completed the change of ownership from blue to red.

After coming to his senses, Lu Tie did not panic, nor did he make any fearless struggle. He even smiled and raised his chin to indicate that he should take off his socks.

He is truly worthy of being the captain of Team A, and has perfectly demonstrated what it means to remain calm in the face of adversity.

Shi Jin, who was just overwhelmed by adrenaline, was only thinking about tying the man to the helicopter and didn't notice someone stuffing a sock into Tielu's mouth.

At this time, the stimulation of adrenaline decreased, and when I came to my senses, I was immediately shocked.

He quickly ran over to take it while saying, "Commander, Commander, we really didn't mean to do that. It just happened to be convenient. Yes, it just happened to be convenient. We usually do this during training. Please forgive us."

The longer a soldier stays in the army, the more he cares about his military rank and position.

Even if this is just an exercise, the colonel is a real leader and must be given enough respect. We cannot do anything rash.

Not to mention stuffing a stinky sock into the leader's mouth, which would cause trouble if the leader took it seriously.

Wu Liuyi, Gan Xiaoning and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. They all knew that the exercise was just a formality and they just wanted to tie the people up, not taking it seriously.

They didn't really follow the training outline to stuff the leader's mouth.

Seeing the smelly socks that Shi Jin pulled out, which were wet with saliva and dangling there, everyone was speechless.

They were all depressed in their hearts and said, "Who has such a bad taste to stuff a sock into the chief's mouth?"

Fortunately, the mystery was soon solved.

When they saw the true identity of the culprit, they were all at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

But they all expressed understanding!
This kind of thing that no one in the world can do, and anyone with a slightly normal mind can't do, will become a normal thing when it happens to someone.

"My dear brother, you are quite skilled. However, I suggest you try something different next time."

Tielu moved his stuffed mouth, stared at Xu Sanduo with a smile, and added: "You are the first person who dared to stuff a sock into my mouth. Very good, very courageous. I will remember you."

When Shi Jin saw that it was Xu Sanduo who did this and the leader said he would remember him, his face suddenly changed.

Worried that Xu Sanduo would be punished later, he pushed Xu Sanduo and urged him, "Xu Sanduo, this is an exercise, not a real war. You are going too far by doing this. Hurry up and apologize to the commander."

Most people would apologize after coming to their senses, but Xu Sanduo is not an ordinary person.

"Why should I apologize? This is how we catch people's tongues during reconnaissance training. We must block their mouths. The company commander specifically said so."

Xu Sanduo's serious explanation made everyone else slap their foreheads.

This emotional intelligence...

There is simply no one left!

"Uh, Commander, he is a stubborn person. He got into it and couldn't get out. He didn't mean to do it. Don't bother with him."

Seeing that Xu Sanduo was still being stubborn, Shi Jin quickly smiled and explained on his behalf.

"Xu Sanduo, an interesting soldier, very interesting."

Tielu still had a smile on his face, and his words made it hard to tell what he was thinking. He then changed the subject and asked, "Which company are you from?"

"Reporting to the commander, we are the 7th Combined Reconnaissance Company of the 702nd Regiment." Shi Jin replied.

"The Seventh Combined Reconnaissance Company?"

The railway originally thought that the combined company was just a gimmick. The experimental troops above were not yet perfected, so how could the grassroots troops possibly produce one?

But the thought that this Red Army reconnaissance squad was able to penetrate deep behind enemy lines and keep the Blue Army in the dark was enough to prove that they had some real skills.

The railway changed its mind again.

There was a little more curiosity and a lot of doubts.

"You are quite capable for capturing me alive at the headquarters, but if I remember correctly, this is not included in the armored infantry training syllabus. Tell me, who taught you these things?"

The railway has too many questions in its mind, but it cannot ask them one by one now, so it can only ask the most important ones first.

"Report, this is a secret, I can't tell it." Shi Jin replied seriously.

"I know this even if you don't tell me. It must have been your deputy company commander Chen Jun who taught you. He was the one who proposed the idea of ​​reorganizing the company. There's no doubt about it."

Tielu actually had no idea what was going on, but he was as cunning as a fox.

He only needed to use a clever trick and the answer could be found out from the expressions on Shi Jin and the others' faces after they heard what he said.

Shi Jin and others were indeed simple-minded and were really fooled by Tielu's words. They showed surprised expressions on their faces.

Seeing the expressions on their faces, Lu Tie understood. There was no need for Shi Jin and the others to respond, as they already knew that Chen Jun was the answer he wanted.

"Chen Jun, Lieutenant Officer. I'm really curious about what kind of person he is. I must meet him."

Tielu secretly thought about it, then raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said with a smile: "You did a great job in catching me.

Unfortunately, it's too late, the ending has been decided, and catching me can't change the outcome.

By the way, I have to tell you that just two minutes before you arrested me, your regimental headquarters was probably destroyed by my people.

In five minutes at most, once your frontline troops are wiped out, the exercise will be completely over."

The sudden news from the railway that the Red Army headquarters was gone really scared Shi Jin, Wu Liuyi and others, and their faces turned very ugly.

After working so hard for so long, I still lose in the end.

It’s really uncomfortable!
Seeing that his plan was successful, Tielu easily controlled the whole scene with a psychological attack, and then continued to attack the hearts of the people: "There is no need to do meaningless things, let me go, I will take you back by helicopter.

Calculating the time, it was almost time for the show to end when we got there.

This will also save you from running dozens of kilometers back. It’s not easy to walk in the jungle late at night.

You all performed very well, and I will recommend you to your regiment commander when the time comes. I can give you a spot in next year's special forces selection."

Railways really understand psychology.

First there is a wave of blows, then there is care and consideration, and then there are promises of benefits.

Most people can’t withstand such a series of moves.

"Special Forces Selection?"

Hearing this strange yet familiar name, the expressions of Chengcai, Wu Liuyi, Gan Xiaolin and others changed significantly.

Having been in the army for such a long time, I have heard all kinds of rumors to some extent.

This includes special forces.

Rumor has it that only the most outstanding and powerful soldiers are qualified to join the special forces as special forces soldiers, and being able to become a special forces soldier represents a kind of honor.

It is precisely because of hearing such rumors so many times that everyone has an instinctive yearning in their hearts.

Fortunately, although Shi Jin does not have big ideals and is not a military king, his firm will and resolute obedience to orders are definitely among the best.

No matter how great the temptation is, it cannot shake his will.

So in the face of the various temptations of the railway, Shi Jin said in a fiery voice: "Commander, the exercise has not yet ended, but it does not mean that we have lost.

We will stay here and will not leave. The purpose of capturing you alive is just to delay time.

Let alone the last few minutes, even if there are only a few seconds left, we will persist to the end until the director's office announces the result."

There was nothing wrong with Shi Jin's answer, and Tielu couldn't help but look at Shi Jin with admiration.

At the same time, he was also curious about what Shi Jin was insisting on, so he asked, "It's only a few minutes, is there any point in insisting on it?"

"Our heavy artillery units are on the way. As long as we hold out until they arrive, we can still win." Shi Jin said directly without hiding anything.

"Heavy artillery units on the way?"

Tielu, who had always had a smile on his face, was a little confused when he heard this.

He quickly integrated all the information in his mind, thinking of the Red Army troops on Qi Huan's side, and all the Red Army infantry on the front line, who suddenly rushed forward inexplicably. There was no news of the Red Army artillery in the communication monitoring...

Tielu had a clear answer in his mind, and his expression became stiff at this moment.

At this moment, in the camp tent not far from the helicopter, the Blue Army's Chief of Staff and the Aviation Battalion Commander both learned that the railway had been captured by the Red Army.

But they still don't know what the Red Army's intention is.

Because the helicopter had returned and landed, it had lost the ability to monitor and eavesdrop on the Red Army's communications and had no way of getting answers from the Red Army.

They were even unaware that their position had been exposed and that the artillery company was on the way.

There is not much time left for them.

Now everyone's attention is on Tielu, thinking about how to deal with the Red Army held hostage on the helicopter and rescue Tielu.

The commander-in-chief of the Blue Army first thought of saving people and did not think of running away.

This also achieved Shi Jin's purpose of delaying time!

……

The artillery company kept its radio in silent mode for fear of exposing its position, and was unaware that the Red Army headquarters had been destroyed.

But they were really rushing on their way, without even a second to spare.

Nine minutes after the Red Army headquarters was bombed, the artillery company finally arrived at the site arranged in advance by Chen Jun and began to set up artillery at the fastest speed.

The advantages of mechanized self-propelled artillery were fully demonstrated at this moment.

In less than two minutes, all the self-propelled heavy artillery of the artillery company was set up, and the muzzles were all pointed towards the direction of the Blue Army Command.

"Fire~"

With a command, all the artillery roared.

It was the most powerful blow the Red Army had ever dealt. The shells, carrying the Red Army's belief in a comeback, pierced through the darkness of the night and headed straight for their destination twenty kilometers away.

One minute before the artillery company opened fire, Shi Jin received an order from Chen Jun.

The artillery is in place, let them evacuate immediately.

Ever since.

The helicopter carrying the railway and the spearhead squad had just taken off from the helipad when the referee from the director's department entered the Red Army headquarters.

Announced to the Blue Army Chief of Staff in public -

The Army Aviation Camp was hit by heavy artillery from the Red Army, and the Blue Army Headquarters was completely destroyed, killing the Chief of Staff and the Army Aviation Battalion Leader. Then the second item was announced, which the Blue Army Chief of Staff never dreamed would be the final answer to this outcome.

The Blue Army's headquarters was destroyed by the Red Army, and 70 percent of the Blue Army's positions were occupied by the Red Army.

The Red Army gave priority to achieving the two conditions for victory, so the final winner of the 1997 Operation Sword mountain exercise was the Red Army's nd Regiment.

“We lost??”

The Blue Army Chief of Staff muttered to himself.

Then he laughed!

It's a bitter smile!
The directorate's announcement of the Red Army's victory was synchronized to all radio stations on both the Red and Blue sides, and almost everyone knew the result at this moment.

The sharp reconnaissance squad on the helicopter went crazy with excitement when they heard the news.

They hugged each other and even cheered.

"We won, we won, haha."

"Hey, we found the headquarters. We must have done a great job this time."

"It was a close call. We almost lost, but luckily we won in the end."

……

Seeing the Red Army reconnaissance squad in front of him congratulating each other excitedly, the expression of the tied railway man became quite subtle.

First there was disbelief and astonishment, then there was deep thought with a frown, then there was sudden realization, and finally there was a helpless bitter smile.

But what is weird is that...

Deep in the eyes of the railway, there is actually a bit of unexpected surprise.

The sharp reconnaissance squad was in an excited and heated discussion, as were the soldiers of the 7th Steel Company on Chen Jun's side, the artillery company that had arrived, and every unit of the Red Army.

They all jumped out and started celebrating.

There were all kinds of celebratory shouts and excitement, which were even more intense than those of the spearhead squad.

The Red Army was happier than the Chinese New Year, while the losing Blue Army was just the opposite. Everyone had a gloomy face and looked dejected.

The Blue Army, which was specially designed to test the Red Army, actually lost to the Red Army.

It’s really a bit embarrassing!
However, this festive atmosphere of a decided outcome lasted for less than two minutes before a dramatic scene occurred.

After the director's office rechecked the data information, it was found that the announced results were incorrect.

Because this era has not yet been fully digitized, data can be quickly collected through computers, and the director's office collects information from the red and blue sides through manual reporting.

The Red Army's occupation of positions was indeed more rapid, and the percentage of occupation could be seen at a glance.

So there will be no discrepancy in the calculation.

However, the Blue Army's strategy is to destroy its manpower, and the calculation procedure is much more complicated. All the soldiers killed by the Red Army need to be reported to the directorate, and then the ratio will be calculated uniformly.

Before tonight's decisive battle, the Blues were less than 10% away from meeting the target.

After the full-scale battle broke out, there were several small battlefields.

There were four infantry companies fighting on the front line, there was a battle with Old A's scouts in the rear of the Red Army, there was a battle between Chen's army and Qi Huan's troops, there was a pursuit battle between Gao Cheng and Yuan Lang, and there was also an air strike by armed helicopters.

At the same time, battles are ongoing in four places, and new data will be constantly updated to be reported.

In addition, the battle took place at night, so even if the director's office sent out a large number of referees to watch, it was impossible to count the results immediately in the dark.

In other words.

Even if someone from the Red Army is eliminated or killed, there will be a huge delay when the referee collects the data and transmits it back to the director's office.

If it is short, it will take one or two minutes, and if it is slow, it will even take three to five minutes.

This resulted in the Red Army's artillery unit launching an attack and destroying the Blue Army's headquarters, according to the data recorded by the directorate, the Red Army's casualties were only 48%, which did not meet the standard for winning.

But this was just a record of the directorate at the time, not the actual casualty ratio of the Red Army.

In fact, before the Red Army artillery opened fire, the Blue Army troops killed more Red Army soldiers, but the data had not been transmitted in time.

The fact that the data has not been uploaded for statistics does not mean that the person has not been killed.

and so.

After subsequent data was transmitted, the director's department re-counted the data and found something wrong.

The Blues also met the standard!

Because the red and blue teams played too hard, it was unclear who would win until the last few minutes.

The director's office has no way to accurately judge...

Was it the Red Army's artillery company's shells that destroyed the Blue Army's headquarters first, or was it the Blue Army's ground forces that killed enough Red Army soldiers first?

This is like before there was video replay, two runners crossed the finish line at the same time, and there was no way to tell who was first.

In an era where comprehensive informatization and unified data collection have not been achieved.

It is also impossible to judge who will win between the Red Army and the Blue Army.

Since it was impossible to accurately determine who won, the director's office could only compromise and re-announce the result of the game, declaring that the red and blue teams were tied.

When this dramatic announcement appeared, both the red and blue teams were in control for a full minute.

The Red Team came to its senses later. Although they were no longer as surprised as before, they were still able to accept the result. At least it proved the strength of the 702nd Regiment, and the final evaluation would definitely not be low.

As the supreme commander, Captain Wang also accepted this result rationally.

Because he knew the purpose of this exploratory exercise, as long as the 702nd Regiment could suffer fewer losses in the upcoming major military reform of the group army.

that's enough!
The Blues, who were originally the whetstone, were still not satisfied with the result, but only a win would live up to their identity as the Blues.

But from losing to drawing, at least it looks better and you can save face.

It can be considered as keeping the last underwear!

Chen Jun, a key figure in this exercise, felt somewhat regretful when he learned that the result of the exercise was changed to a draw.

Although before the exercise started, Chen Jun never thought he could beat the Blue Army.

After all, the gap between the two sides is too big.

Not only do the Blue Army's individuals have stronger abilities and their equipment is more advanced and high-tech than the Red Army's, but the army group also gives the Blue Army too many first-mover advantages.

But if the Blue Army can be taken down, the combined battalion will definitely be able to land safely.

Now that the two sides have ended in a draw, it only proves that the combined company does have enough strength, but there is still a long way to go before it can make the group army excited.

The combined battalion requires the coordinated search of multiple companies, which is not as simple as reorganization.

It was almost necessary to adjust the entire structure of the regiment and add new companies. It was impossible to decide within the regiment, let alone the division.

Finally, it must be reported to the group army and get the support of the group army before it can be implemented.

but.

Then again.

The greed of mankind is like a snake swallowing an elephant. We must never be greedy.

Although they failed to defeat the Blue Army in this exercise, they were able to draw with them, and Chen Jun was the core key to the entire confrontation.

It will not only further enhance his influence but also achieve the goals that Chen Jun set at the beginning.

They can also further improve their military ranks and positions through outstanding performance in this exercise, laying the foundation for building a synthetic battalion.

Chen Jun is the core of building the combined forces. His military rank and position level laid the foundation for the level of the combined forces.

For example, if Chen Jun wants to build a combined regiment, he must at least reach the level of deputy chief of staff. Otherwise, the group army will not hand over the troops to Chen Jun, and there is no way to hand them over to him, so Chen Jun can only continue to settle down.

Sedimentation requires time.

And Chen Jun needs to speed up as much as possible.

This is like the principal of a primary school. No matter how capable he is and how many privileges he has, the privileges are limited and it is impossible for him to manage a university.

However, no matter how dramatic the final result was, the exercise finally came to a successful conclusion.

The red and blue sides, which had been fighting for more than two days, now transformed from enemies to comrades-in-arms and began to contact each other.

The Red Army won the respect of the Blue Army with its strength, and the Blue Army also conquered the Red Army with its strength.

The atmosphere between them is still very harmonious.

When Shi Jin, who was on the helicopter, learned that the exercise was over, he immediately loosened the ropes that tied the railway and apologized to him again.

Shi Jin was really worried about Xu Sanduo getting into trouble, so he had to be extra polite.

Stuff a sock into the leader's mouth.

He, Xu Sanduo, is definitely the best in the entire army!
Fortunately, the railway was not a petty person and did not mention the matter again. It also did not order the helicopter to return, but continued to head towards the Red Army headquarters along the original route.

It was not to see my old friend Wang Qingrui, but mainly because I had other requests.

The Red Army had a top tactical genius who almost commanded the entire Red Army alone and beat his Blue Army into this state.

This military genius, who is rare in a century, must be met today.

However, by coincidence, the first person in the Blue Army who met Chen Jun was not his captain Tie Lu, nor his squadron leader Yuan Lang.

Qi Huan was wondering who was commanding the Red Army that made him fight so passively and uncomfortably.

The next moment after learning that the exercise was over, he took the remaining dozen or so Old A's and took the initiative to come to the Red Army position where he had fought all night.

When they saw the commanders of the opposing Red Army, four big, strong men who looked powerful and only had the rank of lieutenant.

Qi Huan really thought he had made a mistake.

I can't believe that in this world, there are actually people whose bodies and minds are combined, and they are all top-notch and belong to the genius level.

This person is compared to others.

Qi Huan really felt inferior to him.

However, Qi Huang was also a man of his character. He just couldn't beat the other party. There was no point in arguing, so he accepted the outcome frankly.

He introduced himself to Chen Jun enthusiastically and left a message for Chen Jun before leaving.

"We will meet again next year. I hope that by then, we can become comrades-in-arms."
