Chapter 173: Invincible Equipment (9)
Yan Mingcheng carried out a pre-war mobilization of the signal corps of the whole division, and it is a cliché to say that it is mainly to talk about the importance of this exercise, and we must take it seriously and not have a sloppy mentality.
In addition, I would like to state first that the exercise is an opportunity, but it is also a test, and it is of course a good thing who can make meritorious contributions in the exercise. However, if there is a problem in the exercise that affects the results of the whole division, then he must be punished.
After the mobilization, he led the signal soldiers of the whole division to advance to the exercise area.
This time, Yan Mingcheng's troops did not have any advanced equipment, and his equipment was the same as that of Sun Guowei, and they were all ordinary vehicles. The only place to do this, of course, is the communication station.
The communication radio stations in Yan Mingcheng's army were all transistor shortwave radios newly developed by Zhao Zhongyao, while Sun Guowei's radio stations were still old-fashioned tube communication radios, which were not only cumbersome, but also had a communication distance inferior to the new-style radio stations developed by Zhao Zhongyao.
The first step in this exercise is to assess the mobility of the two units, that is, to see which unit has arrived at the exercise site first.
The reason why we chose a hilly area between Jianghai City and Qingshan City is that this place is as far away from Jianghai City as it is from Qingshan City.
When the time comes, the two units will be able to march on a contested march, and the one that arrives first will win the game.
But the first step of this exercise is not quite the same as the first step of the previous exercise.
The last time the main assessment was whether the vehicle equipment in the training process was reliable and whether it could not cause any problems along the way.
The first step in this communications exercise is not the problem of vehicles, but the problem of communication stations, that is to say, it is the signal troops that will be assessed. It is necessary to see whether the signal corps of the two units can ensure unimpeded communications along the way during this training.
In the beginning. The advanced speed of the two armies was about the same, because they were moving on a flat road, and the signal of the communication radio would not be blocked by the mountains, so everything went well, and the vehicles were advancing steadily, and the speed of advance was also very fast. In three hours, it advanced a distance of nearly 200 kilometers.
The following journey is more troublesome. Because you're going to be in the middle of a mountainous area. This mountainous area is very large, although Yan Mingcheng's troops and Sun Guowei's troops entered it from both sides of this mountainous area.
However, they had to travel a distance of two to three hundred kilometers on the mountain road before they could reach the exercise area!
Although it is two hundred kilometers away. But for the signal corps of both armies, it was a test.
Because in the mountainous area, due to the blocking effect of the mountain on the signal of the communication station, it will be impossible for the signal troops in front and the signal troops in the back to contact them!
The troops were on the march and could only communicate with radio stations, which were not used by wired troops.
What will be tested along the way is the adaptability of the wireless troops, and whether or not they can ensure that their own communications radio stations can still communicate with other communications stations in the midst of the mountains, depends on the ability of the wireless troops.
Yan Mingcheng's troops were relatively advanced because of the radio station. In this march, it was taken advantage again.
However, when Yan Mingcheng's troops arrived in the mountains, he still let the troops rest first. Let me tell you about the precautions on how to march in the mountains.
Because Yan Mingcheng knew that when he arrived in the mountainous area, the signal of the communication station would be affected. So I'm also worried about whether there will be any problems with my new equipment!
So, he asked Zhao Zhongyao beside him first. I'd like to hear from him!
"Zhongyao! The troops below are about to enter the mountains. There's nothing wrong with your new-style radio station! Don't, when the time comes, I won't be able to contact the radio stations of several other regiment commanders! That will be troublesome! How can I command the whole division to pass through this mountainous area smoothly!"
Yan Mingcheng thought about these things, so he asked Zhao Luyao first to see what he would say!
The biggest advantage of these new radio stations I have developed is that they can communicate as usual in the mountainous areas! It is not like the old radio stations before, as soon as they arrive in the mountainous areas, there will be no signals!
Zhao Zhongyao knew that the power of the new communication radio station he developed was much stronger than that of the old radio station, and not only the communication distance was much farther than that of the old radio station, but also the communication distance in the mountainous area was much farther than that of ordinary radio stations.
The majestic mountains can only make the traditional tube radio stations helpless! And for the new-style telecommunications radios, it is impossible to block all the signals of the new-style telecommunications radios in the big mountains.
"Okay, since Expert Zhao said so, I'm relieved. Let's start going!" Yan Mingcheng used the radio to mobilize and publicize the whole division before entering the mountains, and then began to take the lead in entering the mountains.
When he arrived in the mountainous area, Yan Mingcheng really felt that this new-style radio station developed by Zhao Zhongyao really lived up to its reputation! Not only was it able to communicate normally, but the sound quality was also very good, and there was almost no noise.
The distance between the first command car that Yan Mingcheng rode and the last cooking car of the whole division was five or six kilometers away!
There are still many mountains in the middle, and it is impossible to achieve communication from the command vehicle to the last vehicle if the ordinary traditional tube radio is used. Because there is a mountain in the middle, the radio signal is weakened, or even there is no signal at all.
However, the equipment of Yan Mingcheng's troops is all new-type communication radios, and their power is much more powerful than that of traditional tube communication radios. Even if there is a mountain in the way, it can still be unimpeded.
Since the communication radio can be unimpeded, this greatly increases the speed of the march. Because in the process of marching, there will always be some problems, and only by being able to communicate up and down can the problems be solved quickly.
However, if communication is not good during the march, there is a problem with one of the vehicles, and it is not possible to tell the superiors in time. Superiors also can't know the following problems in time.
This will greatly affect the speed of the march. Because the march of the troops is a whole, if there is a problem in one place, then everyone has to stop, and only after the problem is solved can we continue to move forward!
Yan Mingcheng's troops, on the other hand, are much stronger than Sun Guowei's troops in this regard because they use powerful new transistor radios. (To be continued......)
