At five o'clock the next morning, the camp of the Fifth Army sounded a sharp whistle, which was the sound of the assembly, and Lin Jinhong and the others were awakened by the sound of the assembly for a short time, and they hurriedly washed up, and then got on the military plane. The military plane slowly lifted into the air and left the barracks where he had stayed for a day and a night, Lin Jinhong watched the temporary barracks on the ground getting smaller and smaller, and felt a little emotion in his heart, when he left the barracks, he still thought that it would be impossible to return to the place where he had fought in this life. I never thought that after only a few years of leaving, there would be a chance to relive the old dream, and I could fight again with a gun, although it was only a drill, but as soon as I touched the gun, that kind of military life couldn't help but linger in my mind.
After more than 40 minutes, Lin Jinhong and his entourage finally arrived at the destination of their trip -- the general headquarters of the attacking side, which was originally a barracks for a certain combat unit, but after a period of abandonment, this time it was finally used as an offensive base for exercises. Although this place was abandoned for a while, it is not dilapidated, because it was managed by special personnel during the abandoned period, after all, it took a lot of manpower and material resources to establish this camp in the first place. I heard that after this exercise, the barracks will be renovated and put into use again, but as for what it will be used for, the above did not disclose.
The military camp is located in a small * plain, there is no danger to defend everywhere, after Lin Jinhong got off the plane, he looked around the terrain, and then compared it with the map in his mind, the map was basically no problem. Although there is no danger around the barracks, if the other party wants to attack this barracks, not to mention air raids, and attack from the ground, it must pass through two dangerous places, and if Shen Jiabing sends troops to block those two dangerous places in advance, the barracks will still be very safe. Of course, if Shen Jiabing wanted to attack and occupy the opponent's position, he would also have to go through two dangerous places that were easy to defend and difficult to attack. That's where the whole exercise map is fair. In addition, the weapons and equipment and strength of the two sides are about the same, and the comprehensive strength of the two sides is still balanced. Unlike the first exercises, the weapons and equipment of the 3rd Army were higher than those of the 5th Army, both in terms of quantity and quality.
Except for the unfavorable condition that the enemy position must be captured within three days, the reason why there is a stipulation that the enemy position must be captured within three days is that the military also wants to see Shen Jiabing's offensive ability and Bai Chengjiang's defensive capability. Under the three-day time limit, Shen Jiabing was required to be vigorous, to completely let go of the attack, to break through the defense line laid by the opponent, and to have the determination and courage to die and survive; This regulation also requires Bai Chengjiang to withstand Shen Jiabing's all-out attack. Under such conditions, both offense and defense must bear unlimited pressure, and under such conditions, the exercise is naturally extremely tragic and at the same time has a great ornamental value.
The barracks are not very large, there are about more than three thousand soldiers, the rest of the more than two thousand soldiers, as well as some large equipment are not in this barracks, but in the corresponding large military districts. It was already the first day, and there was not much time left for Shen Jiabing, so Shen Jiabing didn't have much nonsense, and after those special planes left the barracks, they gathered the troops, spoke a few words, got to know some officers and soldiers, and then introduced Lin Jinhong and others to them. In this exercise, Shen Jiabing appointed himself commander-in-chief, Lin Jinhong as the general political commissar, and Han Scorpion, Qiu Rong, Li Qian, and others as the general staff members. After all, this is a large-scale exercise, these things are still needed, and it is not Shen Jiabing's self-appointed official addiction. This is also an initial indication of his organizational skills. Of course, he prepared these things last night, and he prepared them for so long last night for these details.
Returning to the command and control room, an operational meeting was immediately held, and in addition to himself, Lin Jinhong, Han Scorpion, and the eighteen people brought by the three of them, there were also ten colonel-level officers in the barracks, and the highest military rank in this barracks was colonel, of course, these school-level officers all knew the news that Shen Jiabing was a major general. The purpose of revealing the news of Shen Jiabing, a major general, in advance is to save Shen Jiabing's work of subduing people's hearts and boosting morale. After all, three days is not a long time, and Shen Jiabing has a lot to do. Similarly, the side of the Sixth Army also knew that its leader was Bai Chengjiang, a major general of the Bai family, who was very influential in the military system. On the long square table, there were maps and sand tables, and Shen Jiabing, who was sitting on it, glanced at everyone and said, "Comrades, the task of this exercise is very arduous, and it is not easy to capture the opponent's camp in three days. Therefore, it is necessary to formulate a detailed tactical plan in order to achieve victory in this exercise! Other things can be postponed for discussion, but there is one thing that must be taken seriously first, and that is the issue of defense. We have just arrived here, and now that we have entered the state of exercise, in order to prevent local attacks, we must first mobilize our troops to defend. ”
Lin Jinhong and other twenty people discussed this issue last night, but the colonel-level officers who had just been transferred from the barracks as commanders did not participate in last night's discussion, and they were very surprised by Shen Jiabing's question, and one of the lieutenant colonels, the officer with the number 5o23, stood up and said: "Report to the commander, we are on the attacking side in this exercise, and it stands to reason that the other side is unlikely to attack, so we don't need to spend manpower and material resources to make defensive arrangements!" "His 5oo1 number is not the real unit number, but the number designed by Shen Jiabing in this exercise, the first number and the second number are the arms, O represents the 6th Army, 1 represents the Navy, and 2 represents the Air Force; The last two numbers represent positions, which means that he ranks twenty-three among the commanders of the entire exercise. For example, Shen Jiabing's number is 5oo1, and Lin Jinhong's is 5oo2.
Shen Jiabing smiled, "5o23, last night I had a similar idea to you now, and I also thought that we were the attackers in this exercise, and we just need to arrange the offensive tasks, but after some analysis by Comrade Lin Jinhong, the general political commissar, I think that our thinking is extremely wrong, and it may even make us fall into a point of no recovery in this exercise." He said and briefly repeated Lin Jinhong's words, then waved his hand, motioned for the lieutenant colonel to sit down, and began to discuss how to arrange the defenses. On this issue, everyone's thinking is obviously different, and some people think that since the Fifth Force is the attacking side, then it is necessary to devote a lot of energy to the offensive and defense, but the quality of some defense can be appropriately lowered.
