"Also, let everyone carry a few more base numbers of ammunition, and drink and food should be carried in two days' quantities. www.biquge.info"Liu Yan's brain melon is better than Lin Hai's, but there is a bad problem, as long as he lets him think about it, the more he thinks about it, the more extreme he becomes," In short, let everyone prepare according to the standard that we may be besieged by a large number of enemy troops for several days!" ”
"Uh, Captain." In the face of Liu Yan's words, even Second Lieutenant Cody, who came to remind him to be cautious, was a little helpless, "I don't think it's necessary to do this." As you said earlier, this area has been cleared many times, and the security is still there. I'm here to say that during the patrol, just be careful not to get hurt by cold guns and cannons. It's like the kind of situation where you can besiege an entire company, and I don't think there's an armed force of this size in this area. Even if that happens, the base will naturally send air support. We're not alone. ”
"Well, Second Lieutenant Cody, it's not a bad thing to think things through, right?" Knowing that he wanted to make too many jokes, Liu Yan was also a little embarrassed, and his face was hot for a while, but fortunately, it was daytime in the desert, and the temperature was very high, and his face was already red by the sun, so he didn't have to worry about others finding out that he was blushing because of this kind of joke.
"Of course, sir." As a subordinate, Second Lieutenant Cody naturally wouldn't laugh at Liu Yan, he just echoed and said, "I'll go and give an order to everyone to change their heavy equipment." If there is an attack, if you change to defensive armor, the soldiers will naturally have less chance of being injured, and it is not a mistake. ”
"Then you go, I'm going back to change my equipment too." Liu Yan hurriedly pushed Cody away, and then regretted it for a while, "Damn! Just now I boasted about Haikou in front of Lin Hai, and now I will look foreign, if he knows, he won't laugh at me for the rest of his life! Now I'm going to have to be careful and don't make any more jokes! ”
As he spoke, he also ran back to his room to change his combat equipment - considering that it was only a routine patrol mission in a safe area, they planned to travel lightly, and put on a heavy body armor in an ordinary combat uniform, plus a helmet, and the patrol was a ride all the way, and it didn't take much physical strength. But now it's different, Liu Yan completely reprepared with the standard of imminent battle.
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and when Liu Yan changed into T-1 individual combat armor and rushed to the base parking lot, the team members who participated in the patrol mission with him were already waiting for him here.
Due to the long patrol time, all the vehicles participating in the patrol will not be full, so the space inside is more spacious and the crew can be more comfortable. But in this way, the number of vehicles that need to be used will be very large, and more than 20 armored vehicles of various types will be used by more than 120 people.
And when Liu Yan arrived, those wheeled armored vehicles did not decrease, but there were four more tanks, four Shepherd-type main battle tanks, and Lin Hai planned to form a high-low matching tank with the pillar-type super-heavy tank.
"What's going on?" Seeing Second Lieutenant Cody standing next to the command vehicle waiting for him, Liu Yan walked over in two or three steps and pointed to the tank and asked, "When will our infantry company also have a tank configuration?" ”
"It's given from above." Second Lieutenant Cody raised his index finger and pointed upwards, and replied, "I don't know what the lieutenant colonel thinks, but anyway, before we set off, he stuffed this tank platoon for us, saying that it was for us to strengthen our firepower." ”
"Alright, I got it." As soon as he heard this, Liu Yan immediately understood what was going on, it must have been Lin Hai who greeted Lieutenant Colonel Baninger, and the lieutenant colonel made a temporary decision and stuffed another tank platoon into the patrol.
It's just that Liu Yan thought that suddenly stuffing such a tank in before departure would affect the previous plan and disrupt the arrangement of the convoy, and most of their routes were mountain roads. Instead of giving me a couple of tanks, I'd rather have two helicopters with me.
Although he knew that the safety factor of having four tanks with him might be much improved, he hoped that there would be no trouble during the operation compared to this increase in safety.
If you are moving with a heavy main battle tank, if you encounter a battle on a mountain road, it will be called a day and a day, and the ground will not work, and it will be inconvenient to run away if you want to.
So he simply contacted Lieutenant Colonel Baninger, and then refused to join the tank platoon, and finally Lieutenant Colonel Baninger agreed to his request, and the lieutenant colonel himself felt that he was a little too much, and gave the team patrolling in the security zone a platoon of tanks, which was also too ostentatious, and didn't this make it clear to tell others that there were important people in this patrol?
It's a privilege to be.
When he finally set off, Liu Yan led his original team. A convoy of more than one hundred and twenty infantrymen, eight fighting dog assault vehicles, eighteen APCs.
"It's a good thing we've been patrolling on this scale before, otherwise people would have thought we were going somewhere." Drilling through the top hatch of the APC, Liu Yan looked at the convoy behind him and complained to Ensign Cody, "I always feel that there are too many people coming out of us every time." ”
"That's the only way to do this kind of long-distance patrol every three days." Second Lieutenant Cody replied, "Normally, patrolling around the base is no more than one squad per patrol. If it weren't for the fact that we needed to control a large area around us, we didn't have enough bases to make this strange patrol arrangement. ”
"That's right, if there is even one of our other bases or military stations in the middle of this long-distance patrol route, and they are responsible for the rest of the patrol route, we don't need to travel that far from here." Liu Yan sighed, took out the data board again, called up the map, and checked the route again, being careful. Although he refused to accompany the tank, this did not mean that the whole line would be safe, and he had to memorize all the places on the road that were easy to ambush.
"Then again, the local government forces are too unreliable." Cody continued, "I heard from the brothers on the front line that the village that we had managed to take with great difficulty was given to them for defense, but in less than three days, it was seized by the rebels, and it almost caused our front-line troops to be cut off from the land supply line. In the end, it had to take another effort to retake the village. ”
"yes, it's a headache." Liu Yan said without raising his head, when he was in school, he practiced the ability to use his heart, "This is why we have to help the local government clean up the rebels at the same time, but also have to help them train their own army, to be honest, the government army has not yet a group of tribal militants can fight, and I am also very speechless." ”
