Chapter 2880
After the Annan Civil War ended more than 20 years ago, in exchange for military assistance from Haihan, many coastal ports such as Black Tu Port, Do Son Peninsula, Da Nang, Quy Nhon Port, Cam Ranh Port, and Vung Tau Port were all occupied by Annan. The imperial court allocated some areas for Haihan to operate, and allowed Haihan to build military bases in these specific locations and station a certain size of troops.
Cam Ranh Bay, where Cam Ranh Port is located, was selected by Haihan early as one of the training bases for the South China Sea Fleet due to its unique geographical conditions. Haihan has continued to invest a lot of resources here over the years, building it into Haihan's largest military base in Indochina.
Before the arrival of the special operations division, the long-term troops stationed here included the Second Detachment of the South China Sea Fleet, an amphibious warfare battalion affiliated with the Marine Corps, and a reinforcement regiment affiliated with the Eighth Army Division. There are a total of more than 30 ships of various sizes, and the total force remains at about three to four thousand people all year round. It is the largest military garrison area in Annan.
The arrival of the special operations division has brought new changes to the composition of the local troops. Although a considerable number of the original establishment of the special operations division chose to stay in the northern region, there were still more than two regiments that decided to follow Qian Tiandun south, with a total of four to five thousand troops. In terms of military strength, they had exceeded The original garrison of Cam Ranh Port.
This is only the military personnel establishment of the special operations division. Thousands of military family members will gradually move here to settle down with the troops. At that time, not only the local garrison structure will change, but also the composition of the permanent population will also undergo huge changes.
No one likes the feeling of being occupied by outsiders, which is one of the reasons why it is difficult for special warfare divisions with great achievements to find a suitable place to stay in the South China Sea. Even if Feng Annan accepts Qian Tiandun's troops for the sake of personal friendship, it is impossible to give them the same treatment as the local troops.
Of course, apart from the personal relationship with Qian Tiandun, Feng Annan was willing to do this because there were other considerations besides his personal relationship with Qian Tiandun. Taking advantage of the opportunity for Qian Tiandun to take over, Feng Annan was ready to express his attitude to all parties, lest anyone fail to understand the spirit and make some wrong decisions on their own initiative.
Perhaps considering that there was a meeting scheduled for the afternoon, no fine wine was prepared at the reception banquet, which made Qian Tiandun secretly relieved. It should be noted that most of the people at the seven or eight tables present will take turns to come over to say hello. If one person proposes a glass of wine, even if he is just pretending to deal with it, he will probably drink a lot.
Sure enough, Feng Anan stood up and said some opening remarks, and then announced the banquet. Within a moment, someone came over to the main table to say hello.
Yan Chujie, Feng Annan, and Qian Tiandun were all high-ranking officials who were rarely seen. Of course, there were many people who wanted to gain favor in front of them. As a landlord, Feng Annan had the obligation to introduce the other two people.
The first person to come up was a dark-skinned and thin naval colonel. He walked to the table and stood at attention and saluted with a military salute. Feng Annan introduced: "This is Mu Zhennan, the commander of the second detachment of the South China Sea Fleet."
After Mu Zhennan greeted the two of them, Qian Tiandun said: "I think you look familiar. Have we met before?"
Mu Zhennan responded in a deep voice: "My father, Mu Xiabai. When I was young, I met adults with my father."
"No wonder!" Qian Tiandun suddenly said: "I just said that I have a little impression... By the way, your father has always been kind?"
Mu Zhennan said: "My father is still in good health, and he still lives on Amborna Island. If you are free, I can prepare a boat to take you to the island to recuperate for a while."
Qian Tiandun nodded slightly and said: "When I have time, I will go to Ambona Island to see him. Your father and I are old comrades in arms. I saw you when you were still learning to walk. We are all our own people, so don't Then it’s a surprise.” Mu Zhennan quickly changed his words and said, “Uncle Qian is right, my nephew is being presumptuous.”
In addition to Qian Tiandun and Feng Annan, one of the officers stationed by the Executive Committee at the Tushan Peninsula in Annan was Mu Xiabai. Mu Xiabai was more than ten years older than the two of them, so it was actually Mu Xiabai who was in charge of the garrison affairs at that time, with the two of them as assistants.
Later, Qian Tiandun took his troops to the north for development, while Mu Xiabai was transferred to Ambon Island to be the island leader. Only Feng Annan continued to stay in Annan. Among the three, Mu Xiabai had actually left the military system and became an administrator in charge of the government.
However, Ambona Island is the only place to go north and south to enter and leave the South China Sea. In addition, Haihan later invested a lot of resources to build it into a maritime gold-selling cave. The local living environment is much better than ordinary military camps, so Mu Xiabai and others The year passed far more relaxedly and happily than the two of them did.
Based on his age, Mu Xiabai should have reached the time of retirement, but a cornucopia like Ambrosia Island may not be let go so easily. Mu Zhennan's ability to hold an important position of real power in the South China Sea Fleet actually gave the Mu family's industry on Amborna Island an extra level of protection. Even if the control of Amborna Island changes hands in the future, he will still be unable to get around it. Dealing with the South China Sea Fleet protecting the area.
Yan Chujie's understanding of Mu Zhennan is obviously much better than that of Qian Tiandun, who has been in the north for many years: "Little Mu joined the navy at the age of seventeen and has always been in the South China Sea Fleet. His understanding of the South China Sea should be far better than the rest of us. Old guy. Old Qian, if you need the navy to cooperate in any mission in the future, you can discuss it with Xiao Mu.”
Mu Zhennan responded quickly: "If Uncle Qian has any arrangements, my nephew should fully cooperate with him."
The second person who came to say hello next was also from the second generation, Ha Jianzhong, the commander of the Third Regiment of the Eighth Army Division. This man has a round face and fine eyes, and a gentle appearance, but he is tall and strong with a strong back and a strong waist.
"This is Harugong's eldest son. He is from Sanya Army Academy. You two will get closer to each other in the future." This time it was Yan Chujie who made the introduction.
Yan Chujie also serves as the honorary dean of the Army Academy, and he will personally teach military officers when he has time. Seeing his enthusiasm and initiative, Qian Tiandun knew that this person was probably his student, so he was so interested in him.
Qian Tiandun said: "Since the First World War in Manila, your father and I haven't met each other for more than ten years. We still need to find time to meet. By the way, I heard that you have a brother who is also serving in the army. Right? ”
Ha Jianzhong responded: "My younger brother Ha Jianyi serves in the Ministry of National Defense, but he has been transferred to the Donghai Region this year."
Qian Tiandun praised: "Brothers fighting tigers, father and son go into battle, good, good!"
