Report to the commander-in-chief, there is information coming from the reconnaissance unit of the divisional reconnaissance battalion. ”

"Report, our 1st and 2nd companies of armored infantry are advancing steadily, and they have not encountered any interception from the blue side!"

"Tank company, 3 company of armored infantry, the current advance is in good condition."

Red Command.

After the exercise began, Su Qiyue kept receiving information from various combat groups.

Although it was only an exercise within the group army, the division of theaters into theaters was very large.

From the base camp of the red side to the 621 and 544 heights where the blue side is responsible for garrisoning, the distance is hundreds of kilometers.

If you want to push forward in one step, it is almost impossible.

According to Su Qiyue's speculation, the blue side's air strike on its ground forces should arrive within an hour.

And in this hour, it is very knowledgeable what kind of troops and formations can be adjusted on your side.

The battle plan formulated by Su Qiyue was to divide the formation into three areas in the shape of a zigzag.

In the middle, of course, there were several reconnaissance companies of the Gaocheng Division's reconnaissance battalion.

In the rear, on the left side are the charging units of their own side - armored infantry companies and tank companies.

The right position in the rear is your own firepower.

The reason why the firepower output unit was not placed in a later position was because Su Qiyue had absolute confidence in the air defense capability of this combined force.

Whether it is its own anti-aircraft artillery anti-aircraft company or the anti-aircraft platoon of the divisional reconnaissance battalion, it can pose a sufficient threat to the helicopter gunship formation of the blue side.

The most crucial thing is that after the technical improvement and upgrading of the communications platoon and the radar squad, the early warning of the armed helicopter has been greatly improved.

As long as the other party approaches a distance of 80 kilometers, the radar can complete the capture.

The total front of the entire exercise was only about 100 kilometers.

At a distance of 80 kilometers, the helicopter gunships of the blue side will hardly fly into the sky for a long time before they will be detected.

Of course, it's one thing to detect it, it's another thing to shoot it down.

But at least when the other side carries out air strikes, it needs to be more scrupulous.

Too many scruples, timidity in action, can be imagined.

"Reports, radar detected enemy air force movements, coordinates 94,22. It is suspected that the target of the attack is our left-wing troops! ”

In the cabin of the headquarters, hearing the message from the communication platoon, Su Qiyue narrowed his eyes.

Indeed, after the formation of its own coalition forces is set up, it is impossible for the blue side not to notice it.

On the left flank are its own armored units and tank units, and without anti-aircraft artillery air defense, the air strikes of the blue side can be unscrupulous.

It's a pity that Blue forgot a little.

If they do not suppress the fire of their own anti-aircraft artillery battery, they will be completely exposed to the fire of the artillery.

Once the ground forces are warned in advance, they can complete the evasion in time and quickly counterattack.

Then the air strike of the blue side is bound to not last.

Because there are so many threats they have to face.

Thinking of this, Su Qiyue directly ordered Chang Hongliang: "Staff Officer Chang, give orders to the tank company and the 3rd armored infantry company, and let them slow down a little." ”

"In addition, convey the order to the division and reconnaissance battalion. After the BLU air strike begins, rush to the enemy position at full speed! ”

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief!"

Chang Hongliang responded without thinking.

The reason for this arrangement is that Su Qiyue has discovered a flaw exposed by the blue side.

Because of their absolute air superiority, their air strikes can indeed pose a great threat to conventional forces.

But there is a premise for this threat.

That is, the ground forces of the blue side, which must have a certain ability to contain their own side.

It's like the previous exercise between Brigade A and the 702nd Regiment.

In the early stage, Group A's air attack was carried out in cooperation with its own ground forces.

And now, with the front stretched for such a long time, the ground forces of the blue side have certainly not yet been dispatched.

Without the cooperation of ground combat forces, air strikes would not be enough to pose a threat.

Knowing that his side was enough to resist this air strike, Su Qiyue asked Gao Cheng to take the opportunity to rush forward with the reconnaissance troops, just to disrupt the deployment of the blue side in one fell swoop.

After all, it is impossible for the blue side to launch two air strikes in a short period of time in a row.

After the reconnaissance unit broke forward, although it opened a certain distance from the armored units and firepower groups in the rear, it might cause a danger of disconnection.

But in the event that the Blue cannot quickly dispatch a second air strike, they are actually relatively safe.

If the BLU fails to stop the advance of their reconnaissance forces, their ground forces will be uncomfortable.

After all, no matter how elite the combat group of the special brigade is, it will have to weigh one or two in the face of the reconnaissance company of the regular troops.

After being forced closer, the ground forces of the special brigade lost their buffer distance.

In front of the mechanized reconnaissance units of the divisional reconnaissance battalion, it was difficult for them to form a combat group and rush out to intercept them.

Then their only choice is to continue to garrison and wait for their ground forces to show their flaws.

Of course, there is also a possibility that Su Qiyue is not without consideration.

That is the air strike of the blue side, and it may also be a tentative attack.

If it was really a tentative attack, then the vanguard of the division reconnaissance battalion led by Gao Cheng would be in a certain danger.

Because the blue side, after sensing the disjointed formation on its side, is likely to quickly launch a second round of air strikes.

However, the terrain of the battlefield of this exercise has long been studied by Su Qiyue.

In this kind of terrain that combines mountains and plains, the ability of a small group of fast troops like your own is very strong.

Even if the blue side soon launched a second round of air strikes against the divisional reconnaissance battalion, the armored and tank units on the left flank of the side would be able to arrive in time to support.

After considering all the possibilities, Su Qiyue issued the first order for the entire exercise.

……

Army Group C.

Exercise Director's Department.

Liu Heng, deputy chief of staff of the military region, was watching intently the changes on the battlefield.

Seeing that more than a dozen armed helicopters from the blue side were dispatched at the same time, Deputy Chief of Staff Liu sighed and showed an interested look.

Standing beside this, the commander of the group army, Gao Jun, and the chief of staff Liang Feng were both cautious.

"The special brigade is here to give the red side a dismount!"

After looking at it for a while, Deputy Chief of Staff Liu said happily.

"Chief of Staff Liu, the special brigade should want to give full play to its air superiority and try to cause chaos to the joint forces of the digital synthesis battalion and the division reconnaissance battalion."

"As for the dismount, it may not be possible to talk about it yet. After all, it is impossible for the special brigade not to know how strong the anti-aircraft firepower of the digital composite battalion is. ”

Liang Feng said with a smile.

Hearing this, Liu Heng nodded with relief: "So, the flying squadron of the special brigade is very clever to avoid the forward and right flank of the red side's 'pin' shape, and go straight to the most bulky armored force on the left flank!" ”

"It seems that Gu Zhifei is still good in choosing targets to attack."

After Deputy Chief of Staff Liu finished his analysis, everyone nodded their heads in agreement.

"Yes, that's what the deputy chief of staff said."

Deng Jiahua, director of the Operations Department of the Military Region, nodded and said, "Comrade Gu Zhifei is an old qualified for special operations. When I was in Team A, I fought a lot of similar exercises. ”

"His choice of combat is definitely no problem......"

Liu Heng nodded in response, then turned his head and glanced at the railroad behind him that did not speak.

"Minister Tie, would you like to say a few words too?"

"Comrade Gu Zhifei of the blue side is your old subordinate; Su Qiyue, the commander-in-chief of the Red Side, is also your old subordinate, and your judgment of this exercise should be more accurate than ours. ”

Just a week before the exercise, the railway had already been officially appointed deputy director of the operations department of the B military region (at the level of a full division).

Although compared with another vice minister, Zhang Chunlei, he is more of a nominal minister.

However, when it comes to the work guidance of the various special operations units under the military region, he has a great say in it.

It is precisely for this reason that he was also ordered by Deputy Chief of Staff Liu to observe this exercise.

Speaking of which, the commanders of both sides of this exercise are all old subordinates of the railway.

Whichever side of the good things I said, it doesn't seem to be very good.

In this case, the railway was trying to hide it at first.

At this time, he was named by Deputy Chief of Staff Liu, and he couldn't help frowning, but he still had to talk about it.

"The time for the blue air forces to attack is not a problem!"

The railway first affirmed, "After the information squadron detects the opponent's movements, the blue side will definitely try to attack." ”

"As for the target of the attack, it makes no difference whether it is the vanguard reconnaissance unit or the lagging armored unit. Just don't touch the nail on the right. ”

Listening to the railway's narration, several leaders of Army Group C smiled kindly.

Indeed, the air defense units of the digital composite battalion are really visible to everyone on the big screen.

Howitzer company, anti-aircraft artillery anti-aircraft company, plus anti-aircraft artillery platoon supported by the divisional reconnaissance battalion.

Such firepower, even if the helicopter squadron of the special brigade is dispatched, it does not dare to confront it head-on.

Unless it's nighttime, there's still a little chance.

Commander Gao still agrees with the description of the railway.

He smiled and nodded, and interjected: "Iron Brigade Commander, our Special Brigade of Army C was just equipped with the latest modified helicopter gunship last year. ”

"Its performance is even stronger than that of Wuzhi-9."

As the old leader of the railway and the old A, of course Commander Gao knew that the special operations brigade was now mainly using the Wuzhi-9.

When he said this, he was not running the railway, but he was proud of the combat effectiveness of his special operations brigade.

The railway knows the straightforwardness of the old leader, and of course it will not give birth to anything dirty.

He smiled and nodded, "Yes, Commander Gao, I joked with Captain Gu before, asking him how many helicopter gunships such a good gunship will support our special operations brigade......

When Commander Gao heard this, his expression suddenly froze.

Although he knew that the kid was joking, it was impossible for him and Gu Zhifei to put this matter to a conclusion.

However, Deputy Chief of Staff Liu is in charge of the special operations brigade.

If this person listened to the joke of the railway, let the group army develop its style and support a few new helicopter gunships to the special operations brigade, then it would not be easy to do.
