From the 7th Steel Company to the Synthetic Division

Chapter 253 Everyone was stunned, the special operations platoon disappeared!
Based on the movements of the Red Army's support forces, the Blue Army determined that the Blue Army's infiltration forces were just ahead, and they would definitely be able to find them by following the Red Army's support forces.

So they all rushed towards the Red Army support forces and the area ahead.

They wanted to intercept the Blue Army's flag before the Red Army's support troops arrived and joined up with the Red Army's infiltration troops.

Then they would free up all their strength to attack from the front and back together with the front-line troops to swallow up the Red Army's support forces.

As long as the Red Army's support forces can be swallowed up, it will inevitably be a heavy blow to the Red Army, and all of the Red Army's advantages will disappear.

The Blues took advantage of this opportunity to gain an advantage and pursue the victory to launch a full-scale counterattack against the Reds.

Even without the unified dispatch of the regiment headquarters, the three battalions of the Blue Army were able to complete a Jedi comeback victory over the Red Army through the establishment of a temporary command center.

Especially now that the Blue Army has only the second battalion commander left, he will definitely become the head of the temporary command center.

If we can really turn the tide...

The second battalion commander couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster. He couldn't even imagine how much benefit this would bring him. Maybe he would be able to eat his fill for the rest of his life.

The Blue Army cadres have beautiful imaginations and the soldiers have strong execution capabilities.

Worthy of the name of the ace group!
Even though the regiment headquarters had been overthrown by the Red Army, the three battalions were able to respond quickly while fighting on their own, and the coordination between the three battalions was not chaotic.

The Blue Army troops surrounded them very quickly, and it seemed that it would not take long to complete the encirclement.

The Red Army seemed to realize this as well. Worried that the special operations platoon would be overtaken by the Blue Army, the support force had to speed up further.

This is almost the fastest speed that armor and tanks can run at given the terrain.

Inside the director's command center.

The three commanders who had been trying to stir up trouble and keeping a close eye on the Red Army seemed to think that the battlefield was not chaotic enough at this moment.

I came up with a new bad idea.

I don’t know whether they wanted the confrontation to last longer, or wanted to further test the limits of the Red Army, or wanted the Blue Army, which had been beaten the whole time, to have a chance to launch an attack, so that the exercise could be more exciting.

Decided to add one more dish to the Red Army.

And it’s a great dish!
Just as the Red Army troops were speeding up and were about to compete with the Blue Army in speed, the commander added another emergency to the Red Army.

The directorate's radio informed the Blue Army that an unexpected situation had occurred two kilometers ahead.

Due to severe soil erosion caused by heavy rain in the past few days, the road has collapsed in many places. The ground bearing capacity is seriously insufficient and heavy armored vehicles cannot pass.

When the Red Army received the notice from the Coordination and Direction Department, the entire Red Army command was in an uproar.

From the regiment commander to the staff officer, everyone was furious.

If the director was present at this moment, it would be no surprise that everyone in the 702nd Regiment would rush up and beat him up.

At this critical juncture, the director opened his mouth and said it so easily, but the Red Army had no way to go for no reason.

This is simply forcibly transferring the Red Army's advantage to the Blue Army.

This is really too much.

However, this is not the most annoying thing.

The most annoying thing was that the location chosen by the director happened to be at the mouth of a valley between two large hills.

The terrain on both sides is too steep and the elevation angle is too large, so tanks and armored vehicles cannot drive up at all. In other words, this valley pass is the only accessible way.

If this road is impassable, it will take at least twenty minutes longer to drive around it.

Twenty minutes on weekdays is just a short while.

No one will care too much.

But now the red and blue sides are racing against time, and the battle has reached the most critical moment. Even a second slower may determine victory or defeat.

These twenty minutes were killing me!
No wonder after directors became standard equipment in exercises, they became the most hated existence of all troops and were even more popular than patrol officers.

The Red Army was cursing collectively and all fell into a red-hot state.

Only Chen Jun remained calm.

There was no expression on his face.

When the enemy's Blue Army heard the news, they were overjoyed.

In the hastily formed temporary command post of the Blue Army, the second battalion commander who was acting in command was even more delighted, saying that the addition of the command and control system was truly great.

He confidently said on the spot: "The Red Army's accident is really too unexpected. There is no way they will have another chance. Victory will definitely belong to us."

The second battalion commander of the Blue Army was so confident that he was almost about to open the champagne to celebrate in advance.

Because of the adjustment of the command and control department, the Blue Army and the Red Army were temporarily trapped in two worlds of heaven and hell, with laughter on one side and cursing on the other.

Because of this sudden change, the opinions in the director's department were extremely polarized.

Some people think that the director's move was a brilliant one, making the already interesting final battle between the Red and Blue teams even more exciting.

Some people think that the Red Army has always had the advantage and has been suppressing the Blue Army throughout the game, which seems boring.

Now we have put the Red Army under pressure twice in a row, reducing their advantage by a few points, which has indeed made the confrontation more exciting.

Some people believe that this exercise is to accept the combined forces battalion, rather than a simple red-blue confrontation.

We should put greater difficulties on the Red Army.

Only by putting the Red Army under greater combat pressure and still being able to win the confrontation under such circumstances can the advantages of the combined battalion be reflected.

Otherwise, even if the Red Army won the confrontation, it would not prove how strong the combined battalion was.

Only when you are strong against the wind can you be truly strong.

These people all approved of the director's behavior, and felt that the director's actions in making things difficult for the Red Army at a critical moment were completely within a reasonable range.

Some people agree.

Some people objected.

Some of those who opposed it felt it was unfair.

No matter what the circumstances of a confrontation exercise, even if the troop deployment and organization of both sides are different, it should at least be conducted based on fair rules for both sides.

The commander put unilateral pressure on the Red Army and changed the situation at a critical moment.

This is obviously very unfair to the Red Army!

Some people felt that it was really unnecessary and repeatedly made things more difficult for the Red Army.

In a series of previous battles, the Red Army has allowed the combined battalions to demonstrate mature integrated tactics, showing that the combined battalions are more versatile than traditional combat battalions, as well as their adaptability on the battlefield.

If we add more difficulty at this critical moment, it may lead to the failure of the Red Army.

Others think that the emergence of directors may be a good idea, but their power is too great and they can almost dominate the outcome of the exercise at will.

This becomes like the commanders playing a game rather than the combat troops training through exercises.

The country has never launched a war against other countries. Even in modern history, all the wars were fought in self-defense, and the troops seriously lack battlefield combat experience.

Confrontation exercises are arguably the only way for all domestic troops to improve their combat effectiveness.

A few words from the instructor are worth more than several years of hard training by the troops.

For the exercise, the disadvantages definitely outweigh the advantages. …

The officers in the director's unit were clearly divided into two major factions: supporters and opponents, and the discussion between the two sides was very intense.

However, the discussion was only among the people below; the heads of the highest military regions and major military districts did not participate.

The top leaders did not speak out, so no matter how heatedly the people below discussed, it would not have any impact on the confrontation drama.

The Red Army still has to strictly abide by and implement any unexpected events that occur to it.

Commander T was really anxious, his eyes were bloodshot, he stared at the screen intently, and was mentally prepared.

If he really loses this exercise, he will definitely give it his all.

Even though he was criticized and scolded by his superiors, Division Commander T was determined to speak out about the unfair treatment the Red Army had received and to seek justice for the 702nd Regiment.

Several colleagues who had a good relationship with Commander T also felt that it was unfair for him and went to comfort him.

However, all those who watched the exercise believed that the Red Army was already doomed and did not believe that the Red Army could win the confrontation under the continuous targeting of the commanders.

I don't know.

Chen Jun said at the beginning that he wanted to give the director team a surprise at the end.

And this surprise of his.

It's true that no one thought of it in advance.

Because the special operations platoon sneaked away, the director department didn't even know they had escaped in the first half. They didn't expect the special operations platoon to sneak up behind the Blue Army and launch a sneak attack.

It is naturally impossible for the camera crew responsible for the broadcast and filming to keep up with the special operations platoon.

There was no broadcast crew following, and no referee among the team. The director's department could not see any of the special operations platoon's movements.

It's like you only hear the voice but never see the person.

In other words.

No one knows exactly where the special operations platoon is now.

It's just pure guessing and listening.

It was thought that the Red Army's combined battalion had gone to great lengths to carve out a hole in the Red Army's front line, and was then rapidly attacking the Blue Army's hinterland.

Then the direction they were heading must be the direction the special operations platoon came from.

After all, they were going to rescue the special operations platoon!
The information on the direction in which the Red Army troops were heading came from the coordinates reported by the special operations platoon, and was not seen in real time by satellites or reconnaissance aircraft.

Under such a grand atmosphere, everyone's information will be affected.

Firmly identify one thing -

The special operations platoon is right in front of the Red Army's combined battalion. You can find the special operations platoon by following the Red Army's combined battalion.

No one had ever thought about the possibility that the location of the special operations platoon was not the direction where the Red Army support forces were heading.

Even if someone has thought about it, they wouldn't think too much about it and think it's impossible.

It is impossible for the special operations platoon to deceive their own people!
However, Chen Jun is so "cunning and resourceful". He grasps the "common sense" psychology of everyone and infers their thinking based on conventional logic.

This was a most vivid demonstration of unconventional tactics.

In order to make this tactic successful, Chen Jun even deceived his own people, including Captain Wang, the combined battalion led by Gao Cheng, and so on.

From the beginning to the end, they firmly believed that the special operations platoon was waiting for them to rescue them ahead.

So when they learned that the road ahead was blocked and they could only go around it, both Gao Cheng and Captain Wang were so angry that they broke down on the spot.

It was precisely because all the members of the Red Army were kept in the dark that they were able to deceive the entire Blue Army and the directorate.

Ever since.

A funny scene begins!
Relying on the advantage given by the director, the Blue Army overtook the Blue Army and ran to the front, and met a team ten minutes later.

However, just when the Blue Army's flanking team thought they had caught the Red Army's infiltration force.

Victory is in sight.

But they found that when they surrounded several cars with the Blue Army logo in a big way, they thought they were the special operations platoon that stole the Blue Army cars.

The large group of people who got off the car were not the Red Army soldiers they wanted.

Instead, they were completely confused and didn't understand why their own people surrounded them but did not pursue the Red Army. They almost cursed the anti-aircraft company commander and his group.

"What's going on, Captain Qiu? Why is it you? Where is the Red Army infiltration team?"

The person who got off the car was the company commander of the first battalion. He recognized the anti-aircraft company commander walking in front of him as an acquaintance at a glance, and stared with wide eyes in confusion.

"You ask me? I'm still asking you."

Captain Qiu was so angry that he yelled, "Damn it! I've been chasing them all the way here. We might have caught up with them soon. Why did you stop us? If we let the Red Army escape, will you be able to take responsibility?"

There was a lack of communication between the various encirclement and suppression forces of the Blue Army. They almost all followed orders and fought on their own, with no direct contact between them.

This is also the disadvantage of having no regiment headquarters!

"You're chasing? What are you chasing?"

The company commander of the first battalion scratched his head in annoyance and said, "We came from the front line to encircle them. If they were in the front, would it still be your turn?"

"What? You guys are outflanked here?"

When Captain Qiu heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue. He was completely dizzy.

Now both company commanders were confused.

More than a hundred soldiers below were petrified on the spot.

When the information was reported to their respective battalion headquarters, the Blue Army Battalion above was also dumbfounded. When they arrived at the temporary command center, everyone was dumbfounded again.

From the bottom to the top.

All of them were dumbfounded all the way up.

So now comes the big question – where did the Blue Army infiltration team go?
Not only were the Blue Army troops confused, but they were clearly following the direction of the Red Army support troops, so how come the Red Army infiltration troops disappeared?

Even the Red Army's combined battalion, which had taken a detour later, saw the Blue Army troops gathered in front from afar, but did not hear a single gunshot.

The Red Army was also confused!
The Blue Army gathered in the front and stopped moving. There was no gunfire from beginning to end, and no special operations platoon was seen, which meant that they definitely did not outflank anyone.

The special operations platoon was clearly stated to be in this location, so where did they go?

Where can you run to in the enemy's lair?
The information from the front line was fed back to the battalion headquarters. Gao Cheng stood there with his mouth open for a full ten seconds, completely unable to understand what was going on.

After he realized what was happening, he exclaimed that it was weird and immediately reported the situation to the regiment headquarters.

Captain Wang and others were all frowning at this time, thinking that they would hear the bad news that the special operations platoon was besieged and the blue army flag was returned.

Unexpectedly, the situation reported by Gao Cheng was something no one had imagined.

At the same time, a doubt arose -

"Where is the special operations platoon?"
