A few hours later, in accordance with the order of the exercise headquarters, the assembled troops of the 433rd Brigade of the Red Army began to withdraw in batches and return to their base.
Standing on the edge of the road, Wan Xiangdong watched the military vehicles passing in front of him in an orderly manner, but he looked into the distance with a sullen face and said nothing.
Chief of Staff Rong Jun asked him: "Brigadier Commander, are we going back like this?"
The chief of staff's face was also filled with unwillingness.
This was the last red-blue confrontation in his military career.
I thought that this time I faced a new type of Blue Army team. If I could win the exercise, it would be a successful conclusion to my military career of more than 20 years, but I didn’t expect that it would only be one day——
That's right.
On the first day of the confrontation, in fact less than a day later, the so-called 433rd Brigade, the ace of Group A of Military Region G, withdrew from the exercise in despair.
How depressing!
"No!" Wan Xiangdong said: "This ruling is inaccurate! Our troops have not lost, at least it is not certain who will win! I want to go to the theater headquarters and the head of the group army. I want them to comment. Real war Is there such a thing? The battle is not over yet, who has the right to make the final judgment?!"
Rong Jun nodded and said: "That's right. If nothing else, our soldiers had a lot of opinions just now. They said that we lost this battle because we were confused. It would be too cowardly to go back like this. Even if we don't have armored vehicles, we still have a lot of opinions." We can organize infantry attacks, and the military quality of our brigade's individual soldiers is also very good. Even if the infantry is against their armored troops, they can still use the terrain to lead their White Eagle Brigade into the hilly area near the 112th line of defense, where their armored troops cannot deploy. We We can still annihilate their troops, and even steal oil from them..."
"Okay, you ask the troops to temporarily evacuate, and I'll go find the leader first!" Wan Xiangdong said and was about to get in the car.
At this time, an SUV drove up not far away from the highway and stopped next to the two of them.
Wan Xiangdong and Rong Jun knew it was Zhuang Yan when they saw the license plate.
"Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here." Rong Jun said, "The chief is here."
Wan Xiangdong quickly adjusted his military appearance and strode forward to greet them.
"Hello, Chief!"
"Hello, Chief!"
As soon as the car door opened and Zhuang Yan had just lowered his body, the two of them already stood at attention and saluted.
On the other side of the car, the door opened and another person came out.
Wan Xiangdong and Rong Jun looked at each other again, and they looked familiar.
Zhuang Yan returned the gift, pointed at Li Zheng and said, "Li Zheng, you may have met him."
Wan Xiangdong and Rong Jun understood that this was the future chief of staff of the 433 brigade, who would succeed Rong Jun.
how?
Why is he here?
Wan Xiangdong frowned slightly.
In fact, he is not a narrow-minded person.
Just this time...
It was when the 433 army was defeated that the future chief of staff was actually present.
It can be seen that Zhuang Yan called him here. If this confrontation is won, when Li Zheng arrives at the 433rd Brigade in the future, he will be able to overwhelm him.
But now he has lost.
Li Zheng witnessed the process.
How can I brag about this bullishness in the future?
How can this brigade commander maintain his prestige?
But Rong Jun was a little excited.
This is the successor who will succeed him in the future. Rong Jun has a deep affection for Brigade 433. Of course, he hopes that the person who succeeds him will not be a mediocre person.
I had heard Li Zheng's name before and knew some things about him. He was the youngest commander of the combined battalion in the entire war zone and the most promising and youngest officer. These things would be discussed privately with each other in the war zone.
We have met each other in some joint training and exercises, but we have never had a close relationship with each other. This is the first time we have had close contact, so we inevitably look at each other twice more than before.
"Hello, Comrade Li Zheng! I am Rong Jun!"
As he spoke, he extended his hand to shake.
Li Zheng saluted first, and then stretched out his hand to shake hands with him.
"Chief of Staff Rong, nice to meet you!"
Hold the two hands together.
Rong Jun could see the humility and restraint in Li Zheng, but he could also see the unstoppable sharp look in his eyes.
Even though he was an old chief of staff, Rong Jun couldn't help but praise in his heart - Good spirit!
No wonder Chief Shao would take a fancy to him and marry him to Li Zheng. Let alone the chief, he has a daughter. This young, handsome and steady guy makes him want to be his son-in-law. .
"Hello, Brigadier!"
Li Zheng took the initiative to salute Wan Xiangdong again.
"well……"
Wan Xiangdong felt a little awkward, but still returned the favor.
Zhuang Yan looked at the three of them, then suddenly rubbed his nose and said, "Wan Xiangdong, I can smell the anger on you from afar. People say you're here to scold me, don't you accept it?"
Despite Wan Xiangdong's righteous scolding before, now he really saw the solemnity, and immediately extinguished most of the fire. He became docile and his tone was calm.
"Chief, who are you listening to? Am I such a disobedient person?"
He solemnly looked at Wan Xiangdong and said, "Don't pretend to be obedient in front of me. I don't know who Wan Xiangdong is? The people at the exercise headquarters have sentenced you to lose. You must not accept it. You feel that this battle is not over yet." It’s unfair to ask you to withdraw as the loser, isn’t it?”
This is a question that touches Wan Xiangdong's heart.
No matter how respectful and solemn it is, if the words come to this, if you don’t say them, there will be no chance.
"Yes! I don't accept it!"
Wan Xiangdong said, tilting his head to the side and snorting heavily from his nostrils, like a stubborn cow with a bad temper.
"In any military war, it is impossible to determine who will win or lose until the battle is fought to the last moment. Our unit still has 80% of its effective strength, complete organization, and sufficient offensive ammunition, except..."
At this point, I choked up.
He felt aggrieved, and he held back his breath until it got stuck in his throat, and the words could not come out.
Zhuang Yan directly helped him fill the circle, saying that besides running out of fuel, right?
Wan Xiangdong remained silent.
Zhuang Yan continued: "A heavy armored combined brigade actually has no fuel, and it is so confident that it wants to organize an infantry charge? As a brigade commander, do you really think that this is not a defeat? Let me tell you something bad, do you think I am? I don’t know what you think? I plan to give up the armored vehicle, just leave the gunner in the vehicle as a fixed launching point, and then organize the soldiers to form an infantry detachment to fight close combat with the White Eagle Brigade in the hilly area of 112, right? ?”
Wan Xiangdong murmured: "There is no other way..."
"Fart!" Zhuang Yan said: "If that's the case, what kind of heavy-armored synthetic brigade do I want you to be the brigade commander of? I'll throw you directly to the light-armored synthetic brigade, and let you have fun there? Isn't it right? The heavy-armored brigade What’s the advantage?! Isn’t it just your armored forces? Is it reasonable to sacrifice the big and the small for the small, and make the battle bigger and the more you turn back?!”
Wan Xiangdong was so solemnly criticized that he couldn't even breathe.
Seeing his appearance, Zhuang Yan felt that if Li Zheng was here, scolding Wan Xiangdong in front of him would be too much and would damage his self-esteem, so he softened his tone and said, "You are not the only one involved in this 'Hongshan-01' exercise." A unit, including several combined brigades in the war zone, have to go on stage one by one to accept the test. Do you think that the fight between you and the White Eagle Brigade today is just the result of negligence? No, let me tell you, how many more troops will the White Eagle Brigade have in the future? Today's confrontation with you 433 is just an attempt under rules. Do you know what an attempt under rules is? Didn't you see that even the Air Force didn't give you both a match? Because of the binding rules received by the White Eagle Brigade That is, they must use tactics to defeat you, just at the tactical level. In the next game against the 422nd Brigade, the rule the White Eagle Brigade must accept is to use the advantages of electronic warfare technology to defeat the opponent, and then the next game against the 413th Brigade will be a test. It's a joint operation. Do you think it's just a matter of tactics? In fact, it's because the White Eagle Brigade has its hands and feet tied! Just like you are a boxer, and a master of mixed martial arts is restricted and can only fight you with his fists. ! You actually still have an opinion after losing?"
As soon as these words came out, Wan Xiangdong and Rong Jun who were present were shocked.
None of the brigade-level cadres participating in the show knew these inside stories.
He sighed solemnly and said: "You all thought this time it was you, the Red Army brigade, who were tested. In fact, it was the White Eagle brigade of the Blue Army that was tested. They were established only a year and a half ago, and now they are using you as an acceptance test. Do you understand? In the future, after the White Eagle Brigade is successfully accepted, it will receive more equipment and technology. Only then will you understand that it is more terrifying than the Wolf of Zhurihe!"
Wan Xiangdong's face turned pale, and his eyes flashed with tragic light.
The solemn words shocked him greatly.
The self-confidence that he had originally felt was all gone.
"Chief, I understand. I will immediately execute the order and return to the station. I did not fight this battle well, and I beg you to punish me."
He solemnly waved his hand: "Forget about the punishment. The foundation of the 433rd Brigade is here. It's not that the combat effectiveness is not good, but that your brains need to be changed. In the past few years, military technology has been changing with each passing day, and tactics have been updated several times a year. If you have time, you can learn from your own. Lift your head and look at the world. There are ready-made experiences for wars everywhere. Think more about how to win wars under various battlefield conditions in the new era. If you fail to keep up with the times, you will The one who was eliminated, gay brother!”
Sensitive words will be triggered, so words such as "chief" are used to refer to it generally. Sometimes pinyin is used. I hope everyone understands.
