Shen Rusong went into the temporary camp headquarters and found Xu Bowen, and saw that the tent was filled with people from various departments.
Because the troops are so mixed and even mixed with some remnants of the Beiqin base defenders, Shen Rusong's current position is neither called a mobile force nor a reserve force. It is simpler and easier to just combine these more than a hundred people into one. A temporary infantry company.
Shen Rusong also knew who the temporary company commander was. He was Captain Zhang Guishui from Beiqin Base.
The atmosphere in the tent was harmonious because of the excitement of fighting side by side at the Huijiang Radar Station. Before the meeting started, several people who were already close to each other were whispering.
Shen Rusong greeted his acquaintance and waited for the captain to speak.
People are not at the base, so there is no need for any nonsense. The captain was as concise and concise as ever. The general idea was that during the entire clearing operation, the 503rd Hunter Battalion, the two garrison infantry battalions and their more elite mixed infantry company would be responsible for an auxiliary attack direction, using the old Beiqin base as the starting point. Jiang radar station went north, opened up the road as much as possible for the follow-up troops, and carried out advance searches.
Upon hearing that it was the auxiliary attack direction, everyone naturally started discussing it, asking where the real main attack direction was? What about other friendly forces?
Captain Zhang spread his hands, indicating that this was the order he received.
This is the general direction, and then Captain Zhang ordered Xu Bowen to take his platoon to report to the Jaeger Battalion. As a supplementary force for the hunters.
"Aerial reconnaissance and other reliable sources have confirmed that there are multiple nests of deformed species on the planned march route of the troops. Your task is to assist the hunters in dealing with the nests. Combat engineers are experts in street combat and close combat. At the same time, you are also elites. Hunter Battalion He greeted me personally over there and asked you to line up by name."
503 Hunter Battalion? Shen Rusong and Xu Bowen looked at each other tacitly, and both saw the meaning emerging in each other's eyes.
In all likelihood, this is the person Li Minbo wants, and he will take advantage.
After a while, the combat engineers walked towards the Jaeger camp with their unopened backpacks.
Shen Rusong was not as excited as others about fighting with the Jaegers. Instead, his attention was on observing the layout of the camp while in-depth checking the situation of friendly forces in this battle.
Since the suppression force was not a separate unit, it was not a classic three-battalion regiment. According to the three-battalion infantry regiment of the field army, the number of personnel should be between 2,500 and 3,000. The three reinforced infantry battalions carrying heavy weapons are mobile in the form of trucks, infantry fighting vehicles, and motorcycles. The regiment headquarters has Directly affiliated units such as reconnaissance platoons, communications platoons, and military medical teams. More elite units will also be equipped with additional powerful units such as armored companies, mobile rocket launchers, and truck guns.
However, because the cost of deploying such a combined force is too high, except for the northeastern border where there is tense confrontation, that is, the large underground cities in the regional centers such as Longshan, Linghai, and Zheliu are stationed, and they usually do not appear in the form of regiments. At a high level, there is a combined brigade that independently performs strategic tasks, and the combined brigade is equipped with army aviation.
Like the above-mentioned powerful troops, the million-member Renaissance Army only accounts for 20%. The vast majority are still second-line infantry battalions like Shen Rusong's side. They are composed of conscripts who have received four to six months of training. Combat soldiers As a non-commissioned officer, the junior officers came from the 4th and 5th Infantry Academy with a later serial number. The ratio of male to female soldiers was as high as 7:3. They lacked heavy weapons, relied solely on their feet for maneuverability, and relied entirely on mules and horses for logistics. Perhaps except for the fact that the military uniforms are the same as those of the field army, their combat effectiveness and mental outlook are naturally the same.
It is difficult to say whether such an infantry battalion, which lacks will, experience, and firepower, can maintain a stable formation and resolutely fight back after being suddenly attacked by a night attack or even a wave of beasts. As far as Shen Rusong observed along the way, the military quality of these second- and third-line infantrymen and even temporarily recruited reserve militiamen who were 17 or 18 years old was really not very good.
The simplest criterion is, are male and female soldiers separated? Maintain ordnance or rest after a meal?
As far as Shen Rusong saw, basically all infantry battalions were managed separately by male and female soldiers, forming a separate company of female soldiers. Shen Rusong shook his head at this. The original intention of recruiting women for military service was to maintain and replenish the number of troops as much as possible without affecting the combat effectiveness too much, so as to alleviate the increasingly serious shortage of soldiers in the Renaissance Army. But I have never heard of any military units that are composed of pure female soldiers except for female medics and female flying corps.
Let’s look at the ordnance situation, Qing Yishui’s Type 75. Of course, many elite veterans also like the heavy but very reliable Type 75, but the Type 75 used by Shen Rusong and others is new from the factory, with a white light scope and a full set of gun maintenance tools. The white light scope is an old model, and it is only a 1.5x scope. The veterans felt that it was inconvenient to use and not as effective as the mechanical sights. In addition, the white light scope was expensive and had to be reported if it was worn out, so they removed the white light scope. The more hands-on veterans would modify it themselves and use the 80-style red dot scope. Install it.
The Type 75 used by the infantry battalion is just a piece of warehouse stock. It’s hard to say whether the rifles used by the reserve militia are rifled. A few Type 43s are heavy weapons. This thing was used when the Sulfur Springs defenders withdrew. I'm too lazy to bring it, but it is still a rare heavy firepower for the militia.
The unit in better condition is the 594th Battalion. Its superior unit, Shen Rusong, is unclear. However, we can see that the soldiers are resting and guarding in an orderly manner, and they have quite sufficient individual rocket launchers. The ordnance is a mix of Type 75 and Type 80 . Shen Rusong knew that this was a friendly force he could rely on.
On the opposite side is the 595th Battalion, which has a one-digit difference in number and one-digit difference in situation.
When he almost reached the hunter area, Shen Rusong figured out the layout of the camp, which he found quite interesting. Close to the side of the road, the 594th Battalion was deployed in strips to cover a group of miscellaneous troops stationed in the village. The north side of the village, close to the grassland, is occupied by hunters. Considering that the wilderness is often haunted by sneaks at night, it is really appropriate to leave it to the hunters for defense.
Other scattered but combat-effective units were deployed cross-wise to protect the western part of the village in a star shape.
Before reaching the 503 hunter camp, Shen Rusong smelled the strong smell of pheromones in the air.
"Anti-hyena pheromone." Deng Feng 1 sniffed and affirmed.
Shen Rusong approached the camp entrance. In just two hours, the hunters not only sprayed pheromones, but also built a breastwork earthen wall around the camp.
The earthen wall is a very obvious feature of the hunters. During the fire battle, foxholes are naturally dug. For the hunters who often have to suppress the beast tide or even have to engage in close firefights, digging a breast fort can block the small body for a while. , a mutant beast that is difficult to see clearly approaches. So from a distance, the Jaeger camp really looks like a small village.
The hunters guarding the entrance of the camp carefully checked the documents of Shen Rusong and his party, and checked the passwords before putting them in.
"Squad leader, they don't seem to be using the Type 75 rifle?" Xie Guorong said in a whisper. He frequently turned back to look at the short rifle held by the guard.
Shen Rusong narrowed his eyes and said: "The 75-bar Type 3, it's the one with a short barrel that shoots faster."
A longer barrel is conducive to the muzzle velocity and accuracy of the bullet. A short barrel is naturally conducive to portability, making it easier to deploy in narrow terrain. It also increases reaction speed. Hunters often walk through the woodland like this, and suddenly a deformed species will appear. The speed of firing the gun will slow down in an instant. Often it can determine whether the head is still on the neck.
