Zhuang Yan came to Brigade 433 without notifying anyone.
After he went to the 413th Brigade to participate in a tactical observation, on the way back to the army headquarters, he suddenly asked the driver to drive towards the 433rd Brigade's station on a whim.
The 433rd Brigade is very large and has many entrances. Zhuang Yan is very familiar with this place. He chose the most remote entrance - there is a road at the air defense camp that leads to the scenic area. Before entering the scenic area, turn right and follow a road. Drive along the narrow cement road for about 300 meters, and you will see a small back entrance of the air defense camp.
There are usually only a few soldiers and a sentry box there. Unlike the gate into the brigade headquarters, here the air defense battalion's own soldiers are guarding it, while the brigade gate is guarded by soldiers from the security company.
Compared with the soldiers of the guard company, the inspection of the soldiers of the air defense battalion is not lax, but lacks "eyesight."
If the solemn car enters the station from the gate of the brigade headquarters, the soldiers in the guard company will know who is coming as soon as they see the license plate, and the cadre in charge of the shift will immediately call the duty room of the brigade headquarters to inform the leader of the arrival.
As long as the duty room receives the news, brigade commander Wan Xiangdong will be notified within two minutes, and within ten minutes, the entire brigade will know that the military leader is coming.
Put aside any superficiality.
Any unit, as long as the leader comes, let alone make a big fanfare or welcome, at least they will immediately be vigilant.
Because the chiefs in the army like to carry out surprise attacks the most, and they have endless methods. Sometimes, in order to test the troops' ability to mobilize quickly, they can quietly drive to a certain army unit in the middle of the night, and then go directly to the duty room to blow the emergency assembly whistle and issue the order. Order all members of the team to be pulled to the designated location in full gear, and then have the staff check whether they meet the requirements corresponding to the combat readiness level.
From the front-line combat troops to the logistics support troops, any small omission will be registered, and then the unit chief will wait to be criticized by the head.
It just so happens that the chiefs especially like this kind of private visit, which is a little bit private. After all, only in this way can they see the most authentic and original training and living conditions of the troops.
More than three months have passed since the red and blue confrontation with the White Eagle Brigade.
In more than three months, Zhuang Yan heard that the 433rd Brigade had made many big moves.
Regarding the rectification plan for the 433rd Brigade, Wan Xiangdong also reported it.
It is said that this plan was formulated by Li Zheng and passed by the team after study.
At that time, other military chiefs had many objections to Li Zheng's plan.
They all felt that he was taking too big a step and was afraid of breaking his balls.
Especially the elimination plan, it simply blinded many people.
In the past, most of the units that could carry out such a plan were units at or above the military level. This time, a brigade took the initiative to carry out such a plan. It was very courageous.
The most important thing is that Li Zheng was only thirty-two years old and the youngest brigade chief of staff in the G theater.
In the eyes of many people, youth means inexperience.
No matter how outstanding Li Zheng was in other units in the past, after all, this was his first time as brigade chief of staff.
Coupled with Li Zheng's background and connections, many people are worried that the son-in-law of the leader's family will end up creating a mess that cannot be cleaned up because of his attempts to achieve results, which would be difficult for the head of the group army to wipe his ass.
In the end, he solemnly withstood all the pressure and strongly supported Li Zheng's rectification plan. Only then did the 433 Brigade obtain approval from superiors and begin full implementation.
Things are so fun to do sometimes.
For example, there is an old saying that there are people in the court who are easy to get things done.
In most cases, this is a slightly derogatory and negative old saying, but if used to do the right thing, the taste will be different.
This time Li Zheng's rectification, without the support of the old chief Zhuang Yan, and without the endorsement of his father-in-law behind him, I am afraid that the plan proposed by an ordinary brigade chief of staff would be difficult to implement in the end.
Because the movement was too big and the noise was too loud.
If you mess up, it will be a big fool.
Even a daring leader like Zhuang Yan, even if 10,000 people believed in Li Zheng's abilities, would have to come down and see for themselves before they would feel reassured.
To see the actual training situation and combat effectiveness of a unit, you cannot go to the agency.
Once the brigade headquarters knew that Zhuang Yan was coming, a small meeting was unavoidable, and hearing a report was unavoidable.
When Zhuang Yan wanted to go, he first went to the training ground of the combined camp. They were all former soldiers. He stood on the sidelines and took a look. Not only could he see the whole thing, but at least he could see an outline.
In the back seat, Zhuang Yan took off his shirt, leaving only his shirt to prevent the sentries from seeing his military rank.
"Later, just say that the army staff came down to deliver the documents."
Zhuang Yan also made a special statement about his driver.
The driver laughed and said, "Commander, you don't look like a staff officer if you take off your shirt like this!" What's more, how can any staff member come down to deliver documents in an SUV like this?
Zhuang Yan was also happy and felt that what the driver said made sense.
His car is neither a warrior nor a warrior, it is an SUV.
"Okay, just say that anyway, they will be suspicious, as long as they can't recognize the license plate."
The driver said: "Okay."
When he finally arrived at the back door of the air defense camp, Zhuang Yan deliberately did not lower the car window, covered his face with a document, and pretended to read the document.
The driver directly handed over his petty officer certificate.
"The military operations department sent the documents."
The sentry at the door looked at the ID.
The documents are fine.
I stretched my head and glanced at the car again. The rear window was not lowered, and I could vaguely see a cadre without a shirt on, reading documents there.
"Open the door, I'm in a hurry and have to go back to eat!"
The driver was a veteran, sergeant, and the sentry at the door was a private. When the veteran yelled at him so harshly, he immediately lost his temper and turned around to open the door.
The car entered the camp smoothly.
The driver smiled while driving: "Chief, is this sentry irresponsible?"
"That doesn't count. He saw your ID and verified it is correct." Zhuang Yan said, "Sending documents doesn't require any formalities."
The driver asked again: "Which camp are you going to?"
"Go and join the first battalion."
"OK."
The car passed through the air defense battalion camp, then exited from the other side and turned onto the concrete road heading to the Hengsheng No. 1 Battalion.
After driving along the road for about ten minutes, Zhuang Zheng kept observing the training ground and barracks in the camp.
The 433rd Brigade is a front-line unit, fully trained, and a duty brigade in the G Military Region. This means that it has to train six days a week and only have one day off.
No one can be seen in the barracks of this kind of troops during the day. There are usually only duty posts and gun depot armed posts. The training ground must be in full swing, otherwise it will be lazy.
Everything was satisfactory, the barracks were empty, and the training ground could be seen in the distance, where the air defense vehicles of the air defense brigade were constantly conducting practical training on combat air defense subjects.
Arriving at the Combined Brigade, as soon as they entered the camp, they heard the sound of artillery and gunfire.
He solemnly lowered the window glass and identified the direction from which the sound of gunfire came.
It seemed far away from the camp.
He stopped the car and stopped for a while. It came from the southeast of the camp.
For the 433rd Brigade, Zhuang Yan is very familiar with it. There is a training ground on Highland 4 near their camp. Normal live-fire training can be carried out there. Now there is not a single person in the camp, and Highland 4 is in the distance. There was no sound of gunfire, so it was obvious that it had been pulled out, but it was still nearby.
He suddenly thought of a place - Niutou Ridge.
The Niutou Ridge area is the brigade-level training ground of the 433rd Brigade. Generally, the confrontation between the organized battalions in the brigade will take place there. After all, the place there is much larger than a place like Highland 4.
It seems that I came to the right place today. The 433rd Brigade is conducting a live ammunition confrontation?
"Go to Niutou Ridge!"
He immediately asked the driver to turn around.
"good!"
Without saying a word, the driver turned around in the camp and sped off in the direction of Niutou Ridge.
The duty sentry at the First Battalion Headquarters saw an SUV driving on the cement road in the distance at the gate. He originally thought it was the leader of the brigade, but the car suddenly stopped, turned around after a moment, and turned around. Got a head start and ran away...
"Wang Jianghe, what are you looking at?"
The leader in the duty room just came out and saw the recruit Danzi sentry looking into the distance, so he reminded: "Stand guard carefully, don't look around, and concentrate, otherwise the battalion commander will see you and have to kill you!"
Sentinel Wang Jianghe said: "Commissioner Xu, a car came just now. I thought the leader was coming, but I didn't expect it to turn around and run away."
Staff Officer Xu looked in the direction the sentry was pointing, and could no longer see the car, so he didn't take it seriously and said, "Maybe I went the wrong way. Stay on guard! Don't think nonsense here."
Asking for a monthly ticket! Asking for a monthly ticket! The last few days!
