Chapter 470 Extra bet, I have to try something new this time
Whether the 179th Brigade will be baptized by heavy rain is not clear yet, but it will be in the next few days.
The truth is that God is not doing his best.
Several heavy rainstorms occurred near Pengcheng.
The joint training plan that Chen Jun just formulated has added a lot of difficulty.
And since Chen Jun notified the entire brigade to prepare for war, he himself has not been idle.
After all, it is joint training.
At first glance, this seems to be just a larger-scale training.
But basically, it is no different from fighting.
All new tanks in the brigade must be inspected and maintained uniformly. This is a big project.
Synthetic brigade-level joint training is a brand new unit for the cadres of the 179th Brigade, and many of the tanks they come into contact with are new types of tanks.
There are many battalions that have been established for half a year, and some tanks have not even fired their guns.
Whether a new type of equipment, especially heavy equipment, is excellent does not depend on its firepower, nor does it depend on its speed of maneuvering.
When it comes to serious matters, the only thing you look for is stability.
For this joint training, the military region specially dispatched a large number of tank engineers to assist in maintenance and upkeep.
I hope that the next work will progress smoothly.
In terms of logistics, the military region has opened the door to convenience. Hundreds of troop transport trucks transport materials every day and begin to store them.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Seeing such strong support from the military region, Chen Jun finally understood why the brigade commander was so cautious before.
This is the first unit to decide to conduct joint training, and it has attracted much attention.
And Brigade Feng said that once the 179th Brigade joins training, there will be no problem.
This joint training method will not only be implemented in all units, but will also be used by the 179th Brigade as a whetstone for subsequent combined operations.
Meet the challenges of other units.
After all, who gave you a certain level of combat effectiveness first?
Many things were consistent with what Chen Jun originally thought, but some were beyond his estimation.
Unexpectedly, the military region and theater authorities successively stated that they would arrange for people to come to the brigade headquarters to watch the joint training in person.
As for the joint training, with the artillery battalion as the main attack and other units passively cooperating, this only suits their own situation.
Chen Jun had a very strict mouth and did not speak out.
As for the reasons, there are only those two.
First, he can command the combined battalion and has enough experience, which is obvious to all.
Second, commanders and fighters with a little experience, as long as they put aside the problem of burning money, can see that this method is tailor-made by Chen Jun.
But so what?
Many units have already passed the first stage of synthetic formation, which is a period of shortage of personnel and backbones. The next thing to consider is how to form combat effectiveness.
They have never commanded a combined battalion in combat, so it doesn’t matter which method they use.
Anyway, in the early days, everyone was just experimenting.
August 4th.
It was the morning of the third day when Chen Jun ordered the entire brigade to enter combat readiness.
Li Wujie drove Chen Jun straight to the artillery camp.
It’s time to make final preparations.
Looking at the heavy rain pouring outside the car window, the rain curtain blocked the view, and the visibility could not even reach 300 meters.
Li Wujie turned his head and glanced at Chen Jun: "Battal Commander, it's been raining outside, will the joint training still be held tomorrow?"
"Drive your car, military zone, the war zone will have people coming in the afternoon, Can you not proceed?”
“I’ll shake my brain before asking questions again, and think about it before asking.”
Chen Jun smiled and cursed angrily, and then he changed his mind. He looked out the car window.
A flash of worry flashed in his eyes.
In fact, it's not surprising that Xiao Wu asked such a question. In the staff department just now, several training staff officers also mentioned this matter.
It’s just that this kid heard it and deliberately showed it off.
Don’t make a fuss about it.
Don't say that wars don't always start on sunny days, and soldiers shouldn't suspend training because of a heavy rain.
This is completely irrelevant.
The entire combined brigade was deployed for the first time. The combined equipment and number of people were enough to compare with the size of the entire army of some small countries.
In this case, all aspects must be considered.
Rain, especially heavy rain, will make the entire exercise environment more complicated.
Compared to sunny days, it is much more difficult and uncertain.
I won’t talk about things like obstructing sight and affecting mobility.
These are the simplest troubles.
The most troublesome thing is that when it rains, if the front line is stretched too long, the transmission of radio signals will be interfered with, even interrupted or extremely unstable.
This directly brings considerable difficulties to the communication between the commander and the units. If it is impossible to transmit instructions and receive battlefield intelligence in a timely manner.
It will also lead to delays in decision-making and even tactical mistakes, increasing the difficulty of combat.
The most damning thing is that fire weapons and electronic equipment may malfunction, making navigation and target positioning relatively difficult.
This is very unfriendly to the following joint training.
For this joint training.
In the afternoon, people from the military region and war zone will come to the brigade in advance to watch the entire process of tomorrow's joint training in person.
Suddenly encountering such bad weather, Chen Jun felt unsure.
Come to the artillery camp rocket launcher company.
Li Wujie drove the car under the eaves next to the gun range, and Chen Jun just got out of the car.
The artillery battalion commander Wu Gaochuan came over in a hurry. Chief of Staff Chen has been a frequent visitor to their artillery camp in the past two days.
"Chief of Staff!!"
"Yeah."
Chen Jun got off the car and glanced at the nine 11-type 122 rocket launcher vehicles in the distance. The tank engineers are still busy.
As he walked towards the artillery truck, he looked back at Wu Gaochuan: "Old Gao, how's the investigation going?"
"No problem."
Hearing this, Wu Gaochuan raised his head Wiping the rain on his cheeks, he introduced with a cheerful face: "The electrical systems, fluid pipelines, and guidance and navigation control systems of these artillery carts have been tested dozens of times, and there are no hidden dangers."< br>
“The pyrotechnics have also been checked, and the telemetry and remote control system, gyroscope and other equipment are working normally, ensuring that the command transmission and execution are correct.”
“There is also a fuel test.”
The commander of the military battalion babbled about a bunch of inspection subjects, and Chen Jun could only listen to them with a partial understanding.
He doesn’t understand anything that is too professional.
The reason why I have been running to the artillery camp for the past two days is purely because of this joint training, the artillery battalion is the main attack, and the other battalions cooperate.
If the rocket launcher misfires, it’s all nonsense.
“We must check carefully to make sure nothing goes wrong.”
Chen Jun nodded and warned, then stood next to the rocket launcher truck and looked thoughtfully at the behemoth in front of him.
This type 11 122mm rocket launcher is not the first time that the 179th Brigade has equipped it. It has been installed in the first combined battalion before.
But at that time, the trump card of the entire battalion could only be used once at most. If arranged in advance, it could barely satisfy two rounds of launches, but no more would be enough.
Because battalion-level logistics cannot keep up, there is no ability to sustain operations.
It’s different now. With brigade-level logistics support and the entire logistics support battalion providing assistance to the artillery battalion, these nine 122 rocket launchers will no longer be the bottom of the box.
Rather, it is a conventional means of attack.
"It would be great if we had an opponent for this joint training." Chen Jun looked at the artillery truck in front of him, and he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
This is also the first time he has commanded such a large-scale legion to dispatch, if he only attacks predetermined marked points.
I always feel like something is missing.
This feeling is like commanding thousands of people and wandering around like a headless fly.
Not happy at all.
But Chen Jun also knew that it would be difficult for him to find an opponent in this situation.
After all, in addition to the 179th combined brigade of the 71st Army, the other five combined brigades are now probably actively looking at the results of their joint training.
Still thinking about studying, no one is fighting him face to face at this time.
After wandering around the artillery camp without any problems, Chen Jun went to the logistics, reconnaissance, combat support, air defense, and combined the first and second battalion stations.
Took a tour in unison.
Although it was the first joint training, Chen Jun did not plan to take the synthetic camp to play, but the preparation work should not be less.
While testing the coordination capabilities of the other battalions, if there is an opportunity during joint training, it is still necessary to appropriately arrange opportunities for the four battalions to dispatch.
Otherwise, such a large-scale transfer would happen.
From the beginning to the end of practice, if the main force is always watching the show from behind, it doesn't seem to be the case.
It was almost noon when we made a tour of each camp.
Chen Jun returned to the brigade headquarters. He had just gotten off the car and was rubbing his hungry and shriveled belly. He hadn't had time to go to the canteen yet.
The clerk from the brigade headquarters hurried over.
"Chief of Staff, the brigade commander wants you to go to his office now."
"Now?!"
Chen Jun was a little strange when he heard this. He subconsciously looked up at the government building in the distance.
You know, because of the joint training.
The person Feng Lu wants to see the most in the past few days is him. Why did he take the initiative to call him?
Thinking that someone from above might have arrived early, Chen Jun immediately lowered his voice: "Is there a chief from the military region coming this morning?"
"No."
The clerk shook his head, and then added: "But the brigade commander was very busy this morning. He has been answering the phone in the office. I heard the noise, it should be the latest news in the military region. instructions."
"Chief of Staff, you'd better go take a look."
"Okay, I understand."
Chen Jun responded and told Li Wujie to go to the cafeteria to eat. By the way, bring him a copy and put it behind the office.
Then he quickly walked towards the direction of the government building.
At this time, the heavy rain that had been falling continuously for three days seemed to be stopping.
The hot and humid feeling slightly subsided and the sun began to rise. Chen Jun glanced at the sky, shook his head slightly and walked into the office building.
Because He Xun has to take charge of the command, Chen Jun feels that his brain has been a little exhausted these days.
Either pay attention to the weather or the terrain, and pay attention to the preparations of each unit. The joint training has not yet begun, but he has already reviewed the joint training process in various complex environments in his mind.
I've demonstrated it dozens of times.
There is no way. As a commander, it is common to stay awake for several nights before commanding a battle.
The military is a major event in the country, the place of life and death.
Don’t try to command thousands of people. Calculate various possibilities in your mind, from the main force to logistical arrangements, support from all parties, etc.
I don’t feel this kind of pressure at all.
Chen Jun really didn't feel this way before, mainly because he had never commanded a brigade.
Come to the brigade commander's office.
Not even waiting for Chen Jun to take the initiative to stand at attention and salute.
Feng Qiuhu waved his hand, then pointed to the sofa aside and said: "Sit there and rest for a while."
"I have seen you running around here and there for joint training in the past two days. How are the preparations going? ”
"How is the situation in each battalion?"
"Brigadier, there is no problem. We can conduct joint training as normal tomorrow."
Chen Jun sat on the sofa and rubbed his temples to make himself more awake. Some.
Yes, he has completely lost sleep over the past two days because of the joint training.
Looking at Chen Jun's tired look, Feng Qiuhu couldn't help but laugh.
In fact, if we really want to compare, Chen Jun was already much better than he was when he first came into contact with brigade-level command.
When Lao Feng participated in the exercise for the first time as the chief of staff of the Motorized Rifle Brigade, the entire brigade-level unit was scattered across the battlefields and commanded for five or six days in a row. The Tao Brigade really couldn't bear the time to rest.
As soon as Feng Qiuhu took over the command of the entire brigade, he was overwhelmed by problems such as line-filling reports, troop replenishment reports, logistical supplies, firepower output, and delayed support.
In comparison, Chen Jun was not tired and fell down, which was quite good.
But tiredness comes back to tiredness. This is the critical moment for Chen Jun to make the leap from battalion-level command to brigade-level command.
Even if you have to endure it, you have to endure it.
Feng Qiuhu sat and waited for Chen Jun to rest for a while, then he said: "You can go to bed after dinner in the afternoon. If anything happens, I will arrange for someone to call you."
< br>“The joint training starts tomorrow, which is very tiring.”
“By the way, the military region did not make any adjustments in the morning, but the war zone gave instructions.”
“ Joint training is possible, but there must be corresponding opponents.”
"Opponent?!!"
After hearing these two words, Chen Jun, who was still a little tired, immediately stood up and stared at Feng Qiuhu with gleaming eyes.
"Brigadier Commander, who is our opponent?"
"The 236th Brigade has four synthetic battalions under it. At the beginning of the joint training tomorrow, they will be the target of your attack. Cooperate with this "
Feng Qiuhu looked at Chen Jun's excited look and couldn't help but smile and explained: "It's impossible for the war zone to watch you engage in such a big battle just to let the logistics camp. Passive cooperation.”
"Since it is joint training, other units also need to train. Why not let the 236th Brigade cooperate with you."
"What do you think?"
"Haha, I think it is very exciting. ."
Chen Jun laughed loudly without thinking about it: "I was thinking about having an opponent this morning, but I didn't expect him to be sent over so quickly."
"Having a target that can move and fight back is much better than hitting predetermined targets that don't move."
"Then in this battle, does your Tyrannosaurus team need to play? Only actual combat training can train their abilities."
Feng Qiuhu took the initiative to mention the team that Chen Jun specially formed some time ago.
Obviously.
Chen Jun was not interested in Lao Feng's proposal.
The Tyrannosaurus team is a secret weapon that should be used unexpectedly later.
It's just joint training. One brigade beats four other battalions. This kind of wealthy battle uses the sneaky movements of those dogs.
That is really wrong.
What's more, Chen Jun knows the capabilities of the combined battalion. The 236th Brigade is Ji Tong, the same unit where Chen Jun knew Chief of Staff Ji during the training.
The combined battalion under that unit was equipped with an identification friend or foe system and a battlefield unit identification system, and could not accommodate outsiders at all.
There are many ways to beat them.
There is no need to resort to the most troublesome means.
After learning that the four combined battalions of the 236th Brigade would be attacked tomorrow, Chen Jun felt refreshed.
Immediately bid farewell to Brigade Feng and drove to the combat support camp to re-plan the deployment.
He has always led a synthetic camp, but he has never fought against a synthetic camp before. This time he has to try something new.
