Time flies, time has entered seventy-nine years, and the pace of war is getting closer and closer. The fighters of the special brigade are not having an easy time either! During the day, there was intense military training, and at night there was political study. The study content includes the documents and spirit of the Third Plenary Session of the 11th CPC Central Committee, the spirit of self-defense and counterattack operations of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, the revenge of the little overlord, the occupation of China's territory, the brutal massacre and the expulsion of Chinese people, and other crimes. The soldiers' desire to fight is growing.

In line with the principle of slight punishment, "no matter what the results of the battle are, our army must not fall in love with the war after conquering Gaoping and Lang Son, and will withdraw immediately." Huaxia believes that the main threat is in the north. Therefore, the four major military regions in the north entered the first level of combat readiness and were in a state of readiness for war, in preparation for the attack of the Soviet Union. Only minor forces were invested on the battlefield in Vietnam.

At the end of last year, all the units participating in the battle on the eastern and western fronts marched into place and began training and preparations for battle. The troops of the Eastern Front completed their tactical preparations on the morning of January 8, 79 and all entered the standby position. However, the Western Front was on the verge of changing commanders, and the commander did not arrive in Spring City until January 7 to take up his post. Operational preparations on the Western Front were thus delayed. From 8 to 10 July, an enlarged meeting of the Western Front Military Region studied the operational deployment plan. At the same time, the troops participating in the battle rushed forward by road and rail, and completed the campaign in the early morning of January 10. On the 12th, leaders of the General Staff Department, military regions, armies, and divisions went to the border to investigate.

Because of the effect of the reinforcement fluid, 600 fighters were retained, and a reinforced battalion was formed. These soldiers used to be veterans in the army, at least squad leaders, and there was no shortage of platoon commanders, company commanders and other officers. Therefore, the training of various techniques and tactics is easy to master, and it is relatively fast to master, and the improvement of physical strength, the actions that could not be done in the past in fighting and techniques and tactics are now done in one go.

Strictly speaking, the selection criteria for special forces in the future generations, and the vast majority of the fighters before taking the enhancement solution do not meet the standards. has not been baptized by modern warfare, and the understanding of special forces from top to bottom is limited to the small outline written by Hong Yan, referring to the construction of scouts. However, with the pilot units, the military began to consciously collect information on the construction of the armies of developed countries, especially the relevant materials on special forces.

The Special Forces camp is much closer to the border than other field units. There are not too many people and no heavy equipment, so the proximity to the border does not attract much attention.

As the direct commander in charge of the military department, the old Red Army had to sit in the camp more often. Every day, he inspected the training of officers and men and assigned tasks. At the same time, he led Ouyang Chen, Zhao Zhijian and other officers of the brigade to jointly deduce special tactics, troop allocation, and battlefield arrangements in different environments. When it comes to these specific military issues, Hong Yan is a complete layman. Only then did the old Red Army see Hong Yan thoroughly, and it turned out that it was really not possible that he didn't come up with it. Even if you know that he is a soldier on paper, as an older generation of soldiers who have experienced a series of wars such as the Long March, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the War of Liberation, and the War to Resist Japan and Aid Korea, you will naturally have insight into the military significance. That's why pilot troops appeared.

The old Red Army was entrenched in the camp and saw at a glance the changes in the fighters. When he learned that it was Hong Yan who picked herbs and boiled them into medicine, he was not polite at all and asked Hong Yan to collect more, hoping to create more special fighters. Hong Yan said that if those herbs were easy to find, then the rotten streets would be worthless, and where would it be their turn to serve the soldiers? "Can't you doubt my love for my country and my soldiers, I'm the kind of stingy person?" The old Red Army thought about it too, so he gave up.

The military headquarters began to send reconnaissance units and special teams to infiltrate the south to comprehensively reconnoiter the terrain and the deployment of troops. Intentionally or unintentionally pushed by well-intentioned people, scouts and special forces disagreed with each other and secretly competed. Reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, infiltration and anti-infiltration, the battle of wits and courage between the two sides of the war has already begun before the official start of the war. It is said that several Vietnamese agents are captured from time to time in Huaxia.

Twelve agents were killed and captured, but in the end, they reported back, and the camp was in an uproar. The seven captured Vietnamese workers died a miserable death after being escorted back to Yaozhai due to the late intervention of the authorities. The old Red Army stared at him day and night, Hong Yan couldn't go anywhere, and finally handed over the procurement of vegetables and meat from the special brigade to him. In this way, he can have an excuse to go outside the village every day, and then get some fruits, vegetables, meat, etc. Hong Yan also has yellow eels and even tuanyu, which is specially designed for him to improve his food. The gang leader was busy under Hong Yan's command, but there was a serious discrepancy in the number of stewed beef or fried vegetables. Anyway, they didn't ask much.

After the old Red Army was idle, he asked Hong Yan to accompany him to kill a few games. This was nothing short of torture for Hong Yan. Out of boredom, he sorted out the meridians for the old Red Army.

Once the old Red Army was gone, his waist was no longer sore, and his legs were no longer painful. He had a new understanding of Hong Yan's methods. After that, he received a telephone call to accompany the leaders of the headquarters and the military department to inspect and make arrangements for the reception.

On the 15th, after the high-level of the headquarters and the military department had investigated the section of the Red River, it was decided that the two main forces would take the Red River as the boundary and attack forward side by side on both sides of the river. After that, they inspected the camp in Lao Zhai. Ouyang Chen arranged for two teams to set up a formation drill. Wu Dehou personally explained the tactics and objectives to them.

The commanders of the headquarters and the military department saw the way, and although the number of the two squads was small, their skills and tactics were obviously not comparable to those of ordinary field troops. Command gestures, tactical deployment, battlefield response, goal achievement, breakthrough cover, tactical retreat and other means emerge in an endless stream. Suddenly, the attack is successful or the first hit is missed, and the rapid retreat comes and goes without a trace. In the process of infiltration, unless it is necessary to shoot, the rest are mostly daggers, military stabs or crossbows and other cold weapons or even bare hands to clear obstacles. Although it was a drill, it still made the chiefs' hearts shake. They were all thinking about how much chaos such a team would cause if they were scattered into the enemy's rear to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, disrupt communications, and attack and kill the headquarters. If the "decapitation" is successful, the impact on both sides that are being warring will be absolutely enormous.

After the exercise, all the personnel of the special brigade in the camp gathered and waited for instructions. Commander Yang delivered warm and encouraging words.

“…… The just-concluded 11 th Plenary Session of the CPC Central Committee put forward reform and opening up. Our armed forces should also be reformed to suit the characteristics of the development of modern warfare in the new situation. As the first special forces unit in the whole army, you are on the front line of army reform......"

“…… The whole army is watching our experiments and explorations, and what kind of attitude you enter and what kind of achievements you achieve in future wars will have a direct impact on the future existence and development of this unit, and you must display our national and military prestige ......."

“…… Some people do not understand why such a team should be established with high standards, believing that the cost is too great, the purpose is unclear, the role is limited, and there is a problem of duplication with the construction of reconnaissance units. I'm very relieved to see your walkthrough......"

“…… The only criterion for testing truth in practice. The building of our troops should be tested and developed in actual combat. Chairman M said that to learn from war in the course of war is to sum up lessons and lessons from war, find the law of war and win the next war. War is also a place to test war theory, and whether our special operations theory and training level meet the standards must also be tested in war......"

“…… Two hegemonic countries, one south and one north, threaten the security of the Chinese Republic. In particular, the little overlord in the south has experienced several decades of war, and thinks that he has mastered the laws and characteristics of modern warfare, and is known as the third military power in the world and the first in Asia. With the military support and arming of the northern tyrants, they openly invaded neighboring countries, killed Chinese compatriots, encroached on China's territory, and harassed the lives of border people. They are ungrateful, they will take revenge, and they forget who is supporting them in the most difficult times? Forget who taught them to defeat the Mi Guokees? ……”

“…… The Party Central Committee and the State Council ordered us to severely punish the little overlords. We must never fail to live up to the expectations of the CPC Central Committee, the State Council, and the people of the whole country, and we must achieve the greatest results in the shortest possible time, with swift attacks, and with the most ferocious blows......"

At the end of Commander Yang's speech, the audience burst into thunderous applause. Wu Dehou arranged for the special brigade to return to the camp to study the spirit of Commander Yang's speech. Hong Yan did not stand in the queue, but held the camera, pressed the shutter, and left a moment of history. In fact, he was accompanied by military reporters, Xinhua News Agency reporters, and military correspondents.

The soldiers were disbanded, and the old Red Army respectfully welcomed Commander Yang and other leaders into the humble brigade headquarters again. "Chief, great work! Thank you for your encouragement to the soldiers, and we will never fail to live up to the expectations of the CPC Central Committee, the State Council, and the leaders! ”

"Xiao Wu, you're still so polite!" Commander Yang couldn't help but shake his head and smiled, his face seemed to be helpless: "It's been how many years I've said, you just won't change!" Alas, more points! If you don't change it, you won't change it, it's really not you if you change it! ”

The old Red Army, hehe, I don't dare to call the old Red Army in front of Commander Yang! He joined the Red Army only at the end of 34, and was only a guard, that is, a follower. At that time, Commander Yang was already the head of the advance regiment. Commander Yang participated in the G life at the age of seventeen, and served as the commander-in-chief of the War to Resist Rice and Aid Korea, and was later awarded the title of general.

Wu Dehou, who was awarded the title of major general after liberation, is two levels behind! On the Long March and for a long time afterward, when the two met, one respectfully addressed "Chief" and the other affectionately called "Xiao Wu". Decades later, it still hasn't changed.

Hong Yan naturally knew that next year, Commander Yang would serve as chief of the General Staff and reach the highest peak of his life and career.

At this time, Hong Yan couldn't get in, and he didn't dare to run around. He went back to the tent, and he didn't go to those things to study, and there would be no orders and attendance. Tomorrow, Commander Yang and the others will go north to continue to inspect the border terrain, and the group will set up camp in the camp. Here, there is no need to worry about security.

After dinner, Commander Yang smiled and said, "Xiao Wu, your food is good!" There are fruits, there is fish, and the vegetables are also plentiful! ”

Old Wu Dehou blushed. Isn't this criticism in disguise! But he couldn't say, "We have a good logistics!" However, he had also seen many occasions, so he replied: "Chief, the soldiers train a lot and consume a lot, and they need to supplement a variety of vitamins and sufficient energy in order to recover quickly. I, the head of the family, can only think of ways to satisfy them. ”

"Well, you've done a good job! Look at your ruddy face and tough body! Commander Yang had a look of envy in his eyes.

Commander Yang showed deep exhaustion, and he had a shallow taste of dinner, obviously lacking his appetite.

"Chief, where are you uncomfortable? Why don't you take an early break? Wu Dehou blamed himself: "I was negligent." Today patronized and happy to forget a person. You're right, chief, I'm in much better health than before. This is thanks to a little friend! ”
