Volume 2 Southern Xinjiang Gunsmoke Chapter 019 The Eve

In fact, Commander Yang's topic is too big to start. The advantage of having a big topic is that you can talk about it ramblingly. However, Hong Yan is not a regular soldier after all, and he cannot talk about it completely from a military point of view, at most, he will raise more problems and let them be professional soldiers to solve them.

Hong Yan smiled "hee" at this time: "Grandpa Yang, Grandpa Wu, the specific deployment, command or something, the kid is a layman, and there is no way to talk about it." However, I do have some one-sided and immature ideas, boy, don't blame the boy if you say it wrong. As you know, our country has gone through 10 years of 'WG', and the impact on the economy, military, and other aspects should be great. As for how big the impact is, that's not what we're going to explore today. ”

Commander Yang made a gesture, and the guard behind him immediately sat down and took out a pen to make a gesture record.

Hong Yan smiled and continued: "As the old saying goes, you know yourself and your opponent. First of all, are we confidants? What do we know about our own army? What about morale boosting, equipment renewal, logistical support, technical and tactical training, means of battlefield communications, and command thinking? What are our strengths and weaknesses? Can the quality of the updated firearms be guaranteed? Can the quality of ammunition produced during special periods be guaranteed? Second, do we know the other? Do we really understand international military developments? What is the level of our opponents? The wars of this era are not different from those of the fifties and forties?

Taking the issue of equipment as an example, do the weapons in the hands of our fighters meet the needs of the operation? Fighting in the jungles, mountains, and trenches of southern Xinjiang may require weapons that are short, lightweight, and have sufficient firepower to give full play to the effectiveness of assault operations. What would happen if you had a spear on your back? AS FAR AS I KNOW, THE VIETNAMESE HAVE A LARGE NUMBER OF 12.7MM CALIBER HEAVY MACHINE GUNS, HIGH AND FLAT DUAL-USE, AND PLENTY OF AMMUNITION. Speaking of which, a lot of them are supported by us. They occupy the high points of the mountains on both sides, the clear and dark forts, and use these heavy machines, high flats, and an effective range of more than 1,000 meters to form a cross-blockade firepower, so how can we overcome it? Have our fighters been trained in heavy machinery and high-level dual-use? Once captured, can it immediately form combat effectiveness?

I do not deny that man is the most important factor in war. Even the most advanced weapons require good soldiers to operate, but if there are advanced weapons, they will not be able to use them, which is also wrong. Related to this, how do you identify your commander and follow your command when there is no rank and the ranks are chaotic? There is also how to ensure battlefield communication, will the battery not adapt to the southern climate or the communication distance is too close?

Grandpa Yang, I have no doubt that our army will achieve a final victory. But we have to think about what the cost is to achieve this victory. After all, we are a great country, and you founders of the republic, who have a wealth of combat experience, are still alive, and this is our greatest dependence. We attach great importance to artillery building and have achieved remarkable results, which is one of our major advantages. Our army has a tenacious style of fighting bravely and not fearing sacrifice, and so on. But there are two sides to the problem. Will we breed the idea of underestimating the enemy? It said that you want to teach Xiaobawang a lesson, what is a lesson? The ant kicked the elephant, and that was not a lesson. Only those who have an absolute advantage on the two sides with a great difference in strength can be said to be a lesson. Then we dispatched an army of five or six hundred thousand to fight like a lion fighting a rabbit, and how great the results were the lessons? Chairman M has said that strategically despise the enemy and tactically value the enemy. It is necessary to have the idea of underestimating the enemy, otherwise it is possible to suffer a big loss. ”

As a matter of fact, in the early days of the war, the Chinese army was generally permeated from top to bottom with the idea of underestimating the enemy. In the first two days alone, more than 4 thousand fighters were killed. After touching a pimple, I paid attention to it. Mi Ti fought in Vietnam for more than 20 years, and successively invested more than 600,000 soldiers, but died less than 60,000. After only a little more than a month of fighting, Huaxia suffered nearly 30,000 casualties and more than 6,000 deaths, including more than 500 people who died from their own inferior weapons. This result can't help but make Hong Yan sad.

"In addition, there is the issue of logistics. Modern warfare is all about logistics, and it depends on whose logistical preparations are sufficient. Logistics is also reflected in road transport, do we have enough transport vehicles? Are we familiar with the other party's road traffic? How to ensure transportation safety? Is there a plan to prevent raids? There is no ammunition at a critical moment, how can this battle be fought? Vehicles are stuck in traffic jams, and those in the back can't get up, and those in front can't get down. If the wounded were transferred, would they have died on the road? Speaking of the wounded, please Grandpa Yang must pay close attention to battlefield ambulance, send enough doctors, and if there are insufficient military doctors, local doctors can be transferred to participate. The soldiers did not die on the battlefield, but died without timely treatment, which is a tragedy! They are young and brave, not afraid of sacrifice, have shed blood for their country, and hope they will no longer shed tears.

In fact, Vietnam is a country that has been fighting for decades with France and the Mi Guoyan. At the very least, we have a lot of experience in warfare, and the quality of individual soldiers is not comparable to that of our soldiers. We must pay attention to this little bully. Grandpa Yang, what I am talking about is nothing more than to have a clear understanding of our strategic objectives and the means and forces to achieve them, attach importance to our opponents ideologically, give full play to the superiority of artillery fire, establish a convenient, fast, and accurate communication network, conduct surprise training in soldiers' jungle combat capabilities, and comprehensively improve our logistical support capabilities and battlefield rescue capabilities.

Grandpa Yang, Grandpa Wu, I can only talk about my views from a micro perspective, it's very one-sided, please don't take it to heart! ”

Hong Yan said more in one go, but more of it was a problem, no matter what they thought! With the status of Major General Wu, Admiral Yang * and others, how could they change the established strategy because of the ideas of a child. As he himself said, looking at the problem from a micro perspective is a relatively one-sided view.

The two of them only made eye contact and physical responses with Hong Yan from beginning to end, and did not put forward opinions on right and wrong, reasonableness and science, let alone criticize him on the spot, or talk nonsense. The old GM's mind is indeed different!

Wu Dehou looked at Hong Yan and smiled. Commander Yang nodded and said, "We will consider the issues you talked about." It can be seen that you have a deep affection for the fighters, and many thoughts are thinking about the lives and safety of the fighters. Yes, they are young and brave, they are not afraid of sacrifice, and we will not let them shed blood and tears! He looked at Xiao Wu and said, "Little friend, can this battle be fought?" ”

Can't fight? Now it's hard to ride a tiger! Hong Yan grinned: "Hehe, do children play at home?" The army is deployed in place, the materials are tense and mobilized, and the Chinese government has repeatedly threatened to teach the little brother a lesson. ”

"Haha!" The two laughed!

"Master, I wish you good health, grow taller and taller!" Shi Yanbin, a cheap apprentice, was going to respect Hong Yan with wine, and his attitude was very respectful!

"Hey!" Hong Yan couldn't help but be dumbfounded. This blessing...... Sounds like a lot of flavor!

In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival of '79 is coming. On this day, the camp of the special brigade was lively and the dishes were sumptuous. The brigade had a day off, and all the soldiers took a bath and changed into new clothes, enjoying a rare leisure time. During the Spring Festival before the war, the logistics supply of the military headquarters was sufficient, and a small amount of wine was also supplied. Coupled with Hong Yan's cheating, the special brigade, the alert force and the logistics personnel all had a Spring Festival with sumptuous dishes. The soldiers in the camp were all well fed and drunk, and then told jokes and set up a dragon gate array, and some wrote letters that could not be sent out for the time being, thinking of their distant relatives and comrades-in-arms who went out on duty.

Hong Yan finally missed Chen Weihua's wedding, which must be understandable to their husband and wife. A group of people have been replaced, and there has been no recent visit to the groom officer Chen Weihua to the troops.

Shi Yanbin is tall, and he has been brushed off several missions, saying that his figure entering Vietnam is not conducive to camouflage. The big guy is too conspicuous. Shi Yanbin respectfully toasted Hong Yan, and the whole team knew that the big man had a tendon, and the nine cows couldn't pull it back.

Do you accept apprentices? What can you teach him? However, Shi Yanbin learned Taizu Changquan from somewhere, and he usually fights well. Xuan Yuanjue will not be passed on for the time being, so he can only guide him to practice the three fists of the army. Hong Yan Xuanyuan's recipe was a great achievement, and the changes in Tai Chi made his understanding and application of strength reach a considerable height. So, he instructed him on how to exercise his strength and so on. He told Shi Da that he would teach him Tai Chi when the war was over. In fact, he didn't have the ability to take care of his family, and he felt that it was difficult to face Shi Da's respect. Hong Yan is not the kind of person who can directly reject others, and the matter drags on.

Hong Yan spent the second Spring Festival after being reborn in the barracks, and it has been a year and a half since he came back. The fate of the family, relatives and some friends has changed somewhat. For example, the little sister is now living a cheerful Spring Festival at home healthily, the second uncle married a second aunt who is different from the previous life, Hong Xiaofang was admitted to the university, and the children who did not go to school in the brigade are now in bright classrooms to learn scientific and cultural knowledge, these changes do not know how many people's lives will be affected, and how many people's fate will be changed!

Today, the soldiers in the barracks are under his influence, the old Red Army is in charge of the training and operations of the special brigade, and Commander Yang's stomach problem has been cured a few days ago. In fact, Hong Yan was still a little apprehensive about curing Commander Yang, and he didn't know what kind of impact it would have on the upcoming war. You must know that in the previous life, many military fans discussed that the Western Front fought better than the Eastern Front. For a period of time, especially in the battle of Tangtang, the tactics were adjusted, and the results were quite obvious, and the results were huge. So what if Commander Yang is still in command?

Hong Yan wondered if he was being too careful. The older generation of GM families, how broad-minded they are, how can they be stubborn and stick to fixed tactics, and how can the members of the headquarters and various military departments be fuel-efficient lamps? When a war starts, it is certain that tactical problems will be discovered immediately and corrected in a timely manner.

The old Red Army had planned to send him home. However, Hong Yan said that it would be a few days! On the day Commander Yang left the camp, he said to Hong Yan, "Are you interested in playing with Grandpa Yang?" "This is when the old Red Army is digging into the wall. Naturally, the old Red Army would not refuse. However, Hong Yan politely declined on the grounds that it was more convenient to get along with the soldiers.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the fighters of the special brigade continued to train. However, early in the morning, they returned to the inland camp on a metre gauge to train tank driving and combat skills. Hong Yan pulled back a set of Midi's high-end processing equipment, developers, fixers and other drugs and dozens of color rolls from outside. Wu Dehou was like a treasure, saying that the Propaganda Section of the Political Department of the Army had complained a long time ago, and now the big problem has been solved.

On the same day, An Guangdeng, vice premier of the State Council and chief designer of reform and opening up, was invited to arrive in the United States for an official visit. This is the first visit to rice by a senior Chinese leader since the founding of the People's Republic of China. During this period, the chief designer brought only 8 security personnel, and was attacked twice as if nothing happened.

On 31 July, the chief designer had lunch with American journalists and said: "We can all do such a thing: wherever Soviet Russia is engaged, we will stop it and thwart its troublemaking anywhere in the world." "We can't allow Vietnam to make trouble everywhere, for the sake of world peace and stability, for the sake of our own country, we may have to do what we don't want to do."

On 7 February, in a meeting with the Prime Minister, he said: "If the aggressors are not punished, there is a danger of a chain reaction." "It is being considered that in order to punish, it is necessary to take action at some risk", "It is necessary to impose sanctions on Vietnam".

When asked by a reporter about Vietnam's invasion of Cambodia, he said: "The treaty between Vietnam and Soviet Russia has the nature of a military alliance, and Vietnam has launched a large-scale armed invasion of Cambodia and is provoking in the border area of China. Vietnam will play a worse role than Cuba, which we call the Cuba of the East. There is no necessary lesson to deal with such people, and I am afraid that any other way will not be effective. ”

On the 12th, an editorial in Vietnam's "People's Army Daily" said: "Those who try to teach us a lesson should remember the lesson of Mi Imperialism in Vietnam." ”

On the night of the 12th, the special brigade received information that the 8704 and 2992 trains from the mouth of the Yunnan River to Kaiyuan in the Chuncheng Railway were fiercely fired by rifles and submachine guns by the Vietnamese armed forces at a distance of 2.5 kilometers from the mouth of the river. The train was hit by bullets in many places, and the damage was serious. This section of China's railway transportation has been blocked, and people's lives and passengers' lives have been seriously threatened. The site of the attack was more than 30 kilometers from the camp of the special brigade.

On the spot when the news was released, the soldiers were furious and said that they would immediately set off to teach the Vietnamese devils a hard lesson. In fact, in recent days, the command has reported more than 50 casualties caused by Vietnam's invasion of our borders, shooting and killing border residents, and laying landmines. The atmosphere in which the news was briefed was quite serious and heavy. Preemptively, according to the Vietnamese.

The pace of the war is getting closer, and both sides hear each other's footsteps. Both China and Vietnam realized that war was inevitable. When there is no way to avoid it, both sides are riveting to bring each other down.

On the 14th, the political commissar of the military headquarters came to the camp to issue all combat tasks and mobilize before the battle. Leaving behind the necessary logistical personnel, 600 people were divided into twenty reconnaissance squads, and they crossed the border and infiltrated in multiple batches and directions. In fact, several groups have already crossed the border to reconnoiter the enemy's situation. These reconnaissance squads, which only had more than 30 people, were the eyes of the whole army, and they were first dispatched to the combat area of the military headquarters, and then lurked and reconnoitred with cameras. After the mobilization meeting, the fighters were busy packing their backpacks, sorting out their personal belongings, and writing the "last" letters home.
