Chapter 230: Border Operations

It was only in the background that the helicopter unit was in the process of going deep behind enemy lines in a helicopter, but unfortunately it was discovered by the enemy and attacked by enemy surface-to-air weapons. During the exercise, the regrouped "Warrior Squad" of our team members suffered two-thirds of the casualties and ran out of ammunition and food. Moreover, jungle warfare is not as good as a field station, and we are not conventional infantry, so it should be said that in jungle warfare, the advantages of special operations units can be brought into play to the greatest extent, but no matter how they give full play to their advantages, the final result is often differentiated according to the environment at the time.

Special operations detachments belong to a special existence in the armies of various countries and regions, because they are different from ordinary soldiers, they have to master many skills, and when fighting, large-scale wars do not need their presence, and they often carry out some covert operations. The mission of the special operations detachment basically requires high hiding skills of the soldiers, and only when the enemy does not discover their own traces can they quietly complete the task. Therefore, reducing the traces of action is also something that special forces should pay special attention to on the battlefield, otherwise they will expose themselves or even the entire team, and the guns and ammunition they bring cannot be used unless they are absolutely necessary, because this will attract the attention of the enemy.

Therefore, the best way to deal with special combat personnel is to use special combat personnel, and a better way than to use special combat personnel is to use more special combat personnel!

After all, if you want to search for and encircle a special operations unit with only a dozen people in the jungle, this is a difficult problem in all countries and regions, and a special operations unit goes deep behind enemy lines to carry out decapitation operations, and this is also a training subject that various countries and regions attach great importance to their own special operations units. However, in many cases, once a special combat unit misses behind enemy lines, the chances of surviving will not be very great, not because of the quality of the special combat personnel, nor because of how strong the combat effectiveness of the enemy troops is, but because behind enemy lines, special combat units do not receive any supplies or supplements, but because they are not familiar with the environment, they often bring a lot of inconvenience to their own actions.

In addition, fighting on the enemy's home turf, we do not have the support of civilians, on the contrary, it is very likely that the traces of special operations detachments will also be exposed because of civilians in these areas. Therefore, the operations of the special operations detachment behind enemy lines must maintain a high degree of concealment, and the actions must be carried out: "Fast! Vicious! Permit! "If they miss, like the results of our "Warrior Squad" in this exercise, it is already very good, and there is often only one result waiting for them: total annihilation.

For example, in a regional battle in the 90s, the special forces of a certain country were tracked by militants because they exposed their traces of action, which eventually led to the failure of the operation and the annihilation of the entire combat detachment. And the tragic end of the Russian special forces turned out to be because of a military kettle. In 1996, a country dispatched an operational detachment of 23 special forces to conduct infiltration operations in an area, the objective of which was to find and mark the militants' ammunition strongholds so that the air force could destroy them when needed and eliminate the militants' commanders as needed.

Originally, the mission was carried out very smoothly, and although the terrain in the area was rugged and densely forested, after the combat detachment determined the target, it marched quickly to it to gain time. During a pause along the way, one of the soldiers in the detachment found himself missing a water bottle and was completely unconscious of where it had gone. Although it was only a water bottle, it caused concern among the commanders, because such accidents were taboo in covert operations, and the lost items were likely to be found by the militants and traced their tracks. However, returning to search for it will not only delay precious time, but also make it more likely to encounter patrolling enemies. After the commander's trade-off, he continued to lead the team towards the target point. During the patrol at the foot of the mountain, the militants did find this kettle, and according to its appearance and structure, they immediately judged that there was an invasion of foreign enemies, and deduced the marching route of this combat detachment, and surrounded and suppressed it. In this way, the country's 23-man combat detachment was surrounded by thousands of militants, and after many failed breakthroughs, the Russian army gave up resistance and used radio to contact the rear and requested the air force to bomb the battlefield, and finally the combat detachment and the militants died together under the bombardment of bombs.

Coming back to our current exercise, due to time and geographical constraints, we conducted a total of three exercises this time, one after the other, and they were conducted against the three special operations teams of our special operations team. However, judging from the next two exercises, as I said earlier, it is very difficult to avoid the annihilation of all the troops, after all, the "hunters" who encircle and suppress are the special combat personnel who are dozens of times the "prey", and this has the two best methods I mentioned earlier. This kind of comforted me to some extent.

After the exercise, we carried out many summing-ups and trainings in order to lay a certain foundation for possible battles in the future. So, after the exercise, not only did we not get any good rest, but instead carried out more and more intense training.

In this way, after nearly half a month of continuous training, our jungle combat capability can be regarded as having been greatly improved, and it was at this time that our training was abruptly stopped, not because our jungle combat capability has reached the top level, but because the task has come again......

According to the order, our "warrior squad" needs to go to the northwest border of our country with all personnel and equipment to conduct a complete survey and patrol of our country's border line, during this period, we will also be very likely to encounter some armed elements, and even more likely, it is very likely to clash with the inbound armed forces of some countries and regions, of course, it is also very likely that nothing will happen, just walk along the northwest border line of our country, and conduct a complete survey and patrol of our northwest border.

Under the authorization of the superior leader, our "warrior squad" carried out a one-day rest after receiving the order, but during this rest time, we could not go out, and we could not hold any electronic equipment that could communicate with the outside world, which we knew very well, after all, every mission, every time the task carried out by the special operations team went out, to a certain extent, its degree of secrecy would not be low, but what I did not expect was that this time, our mission became my entire military career, one of the most intense experiences.

According to the plan, after carrying weapons and equipment from the special operations brigade, we went to the barracks of the border armed police force in a certain place near the northwest border of our country under the transportation of designated vehicles. When we arrived, the border guards had set aside a dormitory for us, but it was not for us to rest, but for us to rest and collect ammunition, and when it was dark, we left and went to the border for our mission.

Border or border areas refer to the area adjacent to borders and national borders in political science and geography, and are generally of special importance. In times of war, border areas can become areas of tension or even part of the front. Under normal circumstances, most border areas are restricted and even classified as forbidden areas. In such a regional environment, there is not only a natural ecological environment with few people and few people, but also all kinds of modern weapons left over from the war period that still have a certain lethal capability, and even in such a forbidden area, there will still be some bloodthirsty armed criminals who are engaged in criminal activities. Although the officers and men of our border guards are protecting and patrolling China's borders 24 hours a day, criminal activities have been repeatedly prohibited under the temptation of money and interests.

Compared to these outlaws engaged in criminal activities, the border line is not only their life and death line, but also their protection line. Whatever criminal acts they commit, as long as they cross the border and set foot on our territory, then we will certainly deal a legitimate blow to them; In the same way, if they are in our country, even anywhere, no matter what kind of criminal acts they commit, as long as they cross that border line and leave our country, no matter what reason they have, our officers and men cannot immediately cross that border line to arrest them, let alone strike at that side of the border in any way.

Therefore, from the beginning of our mission to the end of our mission, there is a nerve that must be tensed all the time, to carry out the mission on the border line, no matter what happens, we must not cross the national border, no matter what happens, our operations can only go to the national border, for anyone, everything, and everything outside the national border, we can only watch, and nothing else, we can do nothing! However, what we can do is to stick to this border and make this border the line of life and death for any criminal, what we can do is to eliminate criminals before they cross that border line, before they leave the territory of our country, completely eliminate them!
