Chapter 1621 The Prince’s Frontline (First Update, please subscribe)
The coldness of iron tools, the boundless bloodthirsty!
This day, the war machine started to operate in a real sense for the first time.
Although Jakarta has begun to express its hopes for dialogue through various channels and seeking help from the international community since May 31, it has been followed by the failure of the Soviet Union's attempt to break through the blockade.
The whole world was silent.
Although the righteous people are shouting and supporting others, there is no point in solidarity.
After all, it is well known that the mouth cannon is just a mouth cannon.
For Jakarta, every day is the end of the world. Or they linger in the hope of the end of the world every day
But only God knows when the heavy punch will fall.
In fact, everyone knows that the iron fist will definitely fall because the SEA is mobilizing, from the Navy to the Air Force, from the Air Force to the Army.
Even strategic bombers in the Indian Ocean entered combat readiness duty, waiting for the order to be issued.
At the same time, the young people recruited arrived at the military camp one after another, and many of them even rushed back from a distant foreign country.
"Facing with war, no one retreats!"
In the television news in Europe and the United States, people can always see a group of young SEAs singing in a foreign airport. They faced the call with ease. No matter where they are, as long as it is a mobilization wave, they will take the initiative to return to the country.
Young people who are abroad are like this, and young people in China are the same.
In the face of military mobilization, everyone is fair.
Even the general's son will be mobilized. There are no exceptions, no special.
21 years old, and for Li Yixuan, who just turned 21 years old, he is no exception.
On this day, with the issuance of the mobilization order, as a preliminary in the first period, he no longer had a crush on the world, but regarded death as if he was home. Like many people, he never thought that his first contact with this world was war.
As a reserve officer, he has been wandering in schools and military camps in the past few years, studying during school, and came to the military camp during the holidays, put down his works such as Zhang Henshui and Shakespeare, and picked up the "Teamwork Manual" walked out of the campus and entered the military camp.
Now, like many young reserve officers, he is also in the ranks of mobilization. He will put theory into practice in the rice fields and forests of Java, and write chapters of their generation with his blood and life.
"Hey, it's me!"
Before entering the recruitment, like many people, Li Yixuan called Zhang Jiazhen.
Like many people, after hearing your TV speech, Zhang Jiazhen stayed by the dormitory phone until his phone called. "Are you in it too?" As a descendant of a soldier, Zhang Jiazhen knew what this phone number means.
Meaning of farewell. ,
"Yes, we are going to the front line."
Li Yixuan seemed very calm, neither nervous nor excited.
Take a deep breath, Zhang Jiazhen said:
"Then you must come back safely!"
"Yeah! I know."
"Not knowing, but definitely, I..."
Zhang Jiazhen took a deep breath and said, "I will wait for you." Come back and marry me, and wait forever, no matter how long you wait."
"Okay, I will come back, I will definitely come back! Then... I will marry you."
The phone hung up, and soon, like everyone else, Li Yixuan arrived at the military camp. At this time, there were soldiers carrying live ammunition everywhere. They changed into camouflage uniforms, put on bulletproof tactical vests, and steel helmets.
The war came like this, and as soldiers, they were about to go to the battlefield.
Soon, Li Yixuan got a position that matched his military rank - the platoon leader.
As we all know, this is the military position of a warrant officer, and it is the lowest position of an officer, but again, this position is the most dangerous, because the platoon leader is the most cutting-edge officer, and of course it is the most dangerous!
In the next few days, half of Li Yixuan and his comrades' training courses were conducted on-site training and exercises in the rainforest, which somewhat satisfied their heroic dreams. Field exercises are intended to simulate the real battlefield, let them put the theory into practice, and develop the "offensive spirit".
The SEA armed forces highly advocate enterprising and courageous progress. Only offensiveness is the only quality worthy of recognition.
The training content does not miss any small details of the offensive battle, and it almost doesn't mention the method of retreat. Even if it is mentioned, it is still contemptuous.
We haven't learned to retreat yet!
This is the pride of the SEA armed forces - they have never retreated. Even in Bastogne, even if they are absolutely inferior troops, facing the siege and attack of five German elite divisions, they also Never take a step back.
It is precisely because they have not retreated that they have saved the entire European battlefield.
We won't retreat!
It is also because of this that SEA highly advocates offense because this army was born from offense!
The core of the attack is to rush forward: "Forward, forward, and move forward bravely."
This is the critical moment of infantry fighting. There is no hidden side attack, no siege on all sides, only Rows of soldiers who were ready to die, facing the enemy, their steps were firm, they were desperate, they fought each other in close combat.
In the exercise, although there was no real sword light and blood, everyone was seriously involved in the training. The soldiers were all hardworking and hardworking, and seriously studied the ten-page attack. Order.
The soldiers curled up in the musty rain forest, blending in with their whole hearts into training - the platoon leader and the squad leader, who lay the map flat on the ground and made plans to attack the imaginary enemy.
Every day, their offensive never stopped, besieging the enemy, and group charging, they attacked head-on. The shouts of the soldiers in the battle shocked the world and wept ghosts and gods. They were in the rain of bullets, of course, there were no bullets with bullets.
In this way, after five days of adaptive training, the troops finally boarded the plane. In the past five days, the military not only requisitioned a large number of civil aviation aircraft, but also from foreign airlines. Hundreds of passenger planes were hired, and these jets replaced transport ships and airlifted troops to the war zone—from Surabaya to Aceh.
The fifth motor brigade where Li Yixuan is located was deployed in Sishui. When they were flying to Sishui, the heavy weapons of the motor brigade had been transported to Sishui using ro-ro-ship and fast container ships.
War is a thorough calculation project. In the staff, hundreds of staff members are doing careful calculations. They need to allocate various means of transportation such as ships and aircraft to transport the army to the war zone. Especially for the heavy equipment of the army, it is necessary to ensure that the weapons of each unit are transported to the areas where they are located, and the logistics materials are transported, which not only include traditional military supplies.
Even the water needs to be transported - the military swept all the bottled water and small bags of tissues in SEA overnight. This was prepared based on previous war experience. In tropical warfare, although there was water everywhere, Clean water is precious, and the soldiers cannot drink mud water to fight. Although the military has set up bottled water plants in Surabaya and Aceh, the logistics work of a large number of troops is always complicated. Not to mention anything else, just the problem of using paper for hundreds of thousands of troops to use the toilet can drive the logistics supervisor crazy. The factory can provide it, but it needs to be transported to the front line. In short, after the war machine starts, its strong logistical capacity is not about how much material is produced, but about allocating the materials to where it is needed.
In this regard, SEA's logistics department is still very outstanding. These officers with corporate management experience can always ensure the distribution of materials according to the system of managing the production of the enterprise. Go where you need it.
After Li Yixuan and his comrades arrived in Si Shui by plane, the troops' vehicles were already parked outside the airport. They only needed to find their own vehicles and could arrive at the military camp by car.
The military camp is composed of rows of containers, waiting until they enter, but unlike the barracks, these containers do not have air conditioning.
The soldiers have long been used to air-conditioned rooms, but they know that the battlefield is the battlefield, and the battlefield is not a place to enjoy.
"Squad Leader Wang, you are responsible for allocating the barracks and settling everyone down."
"Squad Leader Zhang, you need at least ten bases when you go to collect ammunition. I don't want us to still use the order when the order is issued. There we were eliminated and ammunition was taken out. "
As the platoon leader, Li Yixuan gave orders to his subordinates. At this time, he was no different from ordinary soldiers. He was wearing a camouflage uniform, wearing bulletproof carriage, and an AR15 carbine slanted If you have to pick something different, the pistol in the right leg is not the standard type 48 pistol.
Finally, after completing the deployment, Li Yixuan turned his head and asked:
"Sergeant, do I have anything else to add?"
Zhang Yixing, who was standing beside him, was his assistant and the first squad leader. He was a professional soldier who used to be in Malaysia. , Siam participated in the war, and there were such living fossils in every grassroots combat company of the SEA armed forces.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read! "Sir, you did a good job." Zhang Yixing was as proud as before, and almost never said anything redundant.
"Well, Sergeant, I hope you can help me, complete the tasks we are about to complete, and bring them home safely!"
"Yes, sir."
Zhang Yixing's He didn't say much, but Li Yixuan knew that he was definitely reliable. Such a veteran is the most important asset of the army.
A few hours later, like many people, Li Yixuan lost insomnia because this was his first night in the battlefield. Although the war had not started yet, this place was always the battlefield and they were about to go to the battlefield.
In the following night, the insomnia people were not only soldiers, but also their parents, even Li Yian himself, after learning that his son and the Fifth Mobile Brigade were sent to the front line together, I also have insomnia.
After all, he was a father anyway.
At midnight, the door was pushed open. Listening to the footsteps, Li Yian said: "You know, I want to call the Ministry of Defense several times." It was Margaret, and she also had insomnia.
"I know."
She walked over, sat on Li Yian's thigh, looked at him and said, "I can't sleep either. I always think of Yixuan in my mind, and the first time he stumbling and learning to walk..." >
Holding his wife, Li Yian silently listened to her memories of her son's interesting stories.
"...Do you know, why did the nobles learn riding and swordsmanship?"
"Because of war,"
Li Yian replied that there were some so-called second-generations in later generations who learned riding and swordsmanship, thinking that they would be nobles, but they didn't know why those European aristocrats learned horsemanship and swordsmanship in the past.
Those people thought they had learned to ride horses and learn to use swords. It was just a joke that they became a nobleman. They didn’t know what a nobleman meant! "The only value of those people is to make money by any means and rely on wealth to support their inner insecurity. There is no value that people admire, neither the responsibility of aristocrats nor the integrity of scholars. The fun and dignity of this is: I am richer than you, you are embarrassed than me!
So, they will show off their wealth in various ways, just like a luxury car bombing the street. More magical It is the show of wealth that is such a luxury car that blows the streets, but people are even considered to be to avoid losing their share in front of foreigners.
Sometimes some things are really amazing.
"Yes, in tradition, nobles are the guardians of the people, just like knights. They learn riding and swordsmanship to defend the king and the people, and so are kings.
It is the responsibility of the king and the nobles to go to the battlefield. . Sacrifice on the battlefield was also the most glorious thing for them, and even the pursuit of many nobles, at least in that era. "
The body relied on her husband's arms, Mag, as the top noble Rit, to a certain extent, is certainly on the side of the nobles, and at least to a certain extent, it is indeed the case.
The death rate of British soldiers in World War I was about 12%, while the death rate of officers was about 17%. The death rate for Eton graduates during the war was about 20%.
From some perspectives, those nobles are indeed not worth mentioning, but they did not retreat during the war.
This is true in both Britain and Germany.
The whole person leaned in her husband's arms, Margaret said: "As a mother, I am worried about his safety, but as a queen, I know that it is his responsibility and Mission.”
Margaret is indeed the queen, she is the queen of the Kingdom of Sharaoh. In fact, her marriage with Li Yian is herself a marriage to the king of the Kingdom of Sharaoh as a British princess. So there is no problem with her saying this.
Nodded, hugged his wife in his arms and said:
"It's not because you can rule the kingdom because you become a king. You have to save the people first before you can become a king... Yes, this is his responsibility!"
Some responsibilities can never be avoided, if you If you want to get, you must first do your duty. This is the reason.
Putting her head on her husband's shoulder, Margaret asked: "When will the war start? It's been so long, and as usual, the war should have started. ”
The reason why I ask this is because in the past, wars here have always been quick to decide. Many times, before everyone can react, the war is over.
But this time it seemed different from the past. The army has been preparing, and it is precisely because of this that she felt a little curious.
"After a month, the troops are still mobilizing and deploying, they must be prepared."
War is really not something that can be fought with just one lips, after all, Jakarta But an enemy with hundreds of thousands of troops!
Li Yian said: "Either don't fight. If you want to fight, you must do your best. You must give the enemy a fatal blow..."
After the words were finished, Li Yian thought for a moment and said, "And this is also the only way for us to protect our children and all our children."
