428 Wu Yijun went into battle
The sound of neat steps made it impossible to stop and watch, and a group of light-green uniformed troops with long guns and solemn faces marched across the long street towards the port. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info They walked in unison, everyone had no superfluous movements, their eyes were forward, and they looked majestic. They are not the regular Tang Army, and the military uniforms of the regular Tang Army are already somewhat similar to the digital camouflage of the People's Liberation Army in later generations, and their printing and dyeing are relatively difficult and costly. The Tang Army's subordinate armies, including the Foreign Legion and the Wuyi Army, used the more common early camouflage and this solid color of military uniform.
This unit belongs to the Third Brigade of the Wuyi Army, and it has been in the army for eight years, and the soldiers in it have changed three times. Many of the soldiers who were discharged from the army chose to come to the special zone of Datang, or went to Datang with their families. Datang treats these soldiers who have served them very favorably.
Although Wu Yijun was not like Wu Weijun, he had gained actual combat experience many times after the change in Beijing, and when Wu Yijun was formed, there was no battle to fight. And because it also has the attributes of the Qing army, the Tang Ministry of Defense and the Far Eastern Theater did not transfer it to overseas battlefields. Of course, this does not mean that Wu Yijun will not be able to fight, and the Far East Theater Training Department once wrote a report that Wu Yijun's training is no less refined than that of the regular army of the Tang Dynasty. Because the quality of its own troops may be better than that of some local troops in the Tang Dynasty, it is judged that the combat strength of the Wuyi Army is considerable.
On the side of the port, Deng Yuanshun, a tall colonel officer, saluted a captain of the Tang Army and said in a serious and serious tone: "The 53rd Regiment of the 3rd Brigade of the Wuyi Army is in place and ready to board the ship at any time. ”
The officers of the Tang Army were born as officers of the Gao Wuyi Army, unless they were specially sent officers from the Tang Army. That's at the same level. Otherwise. Many Wu Yijun officers still habitually salute the Tang Army officers first. However, they usually don't have much contact, so there won't be many embarrassing situations. Of course, the Datang officer in front of him, who was in charge of the actions of the troops, did not have the slightest arrogance, but a more professional attitude.
He said: "Please ask Commander Deng to make statistics on your department again, and I will arrange for your department to board the ship." ”
"Okay, thank you!" Deng Yuanshun said solemnly. He was originally just a splash in Beijing, but because of Lu Xiaomao's recommendation, he joined the Wuwei Army, and he was a captain at the beginning. When he was in the south of the Pingjiang River, he was lucky and made military achievements. Later, his performance was remarkable, and he was finally promoted to colonel, transferred to the Wu Yi Army, and became a relatively high-ranking officer in the Wu Yi Army.
Deng Yuanshun will not do the recounting, after all, he is the commander of a regiment-level unit with 1,500 or 600 people, and the people below will naturally do things. Deng Yuanshun was invited to wait in a lounge at the port.
There were a number of other officers here, including Liao Yuhai, who was also transferred from the Wuwei Army to the Wuyi Army, and the officer of the city defense battalion who surrendered to the Tang Army at Chaoyangmen during the Jingshi Change. At this time, Liao Yuhai was already the commander of the Third Brigade, with the rank of colonel, and he could be regarded as a relatively good Qing man in the Wuwei Army and Wuyi Army system. After the previous round of reforms, the Wu Yi Army and the Wu Wei Army. It also abolished the large establishment of divisions, and completely relied on the brigade and regiment system of the Tang Army. Establishment of the Datang Brigade. The regiment is actually a basic tactical establishment, and the brigade is a campaign-level establishment, and with the characteristics of conflict warfare in this era, a brigade is enough to complete a medium-intensity war. In the Tang Army, there were relatively large brigades, which could reach five regiments under their jurisdiction, with personnel approaching 10,000 or even exceeding 10,000, while smaller brigades also had three or four regiments.
The same is true of the Wu Yi Army, the third brigade is a relatively strong unit in the Wu Yi Army, with three infantry regiments and an artillery regiment, and the brigade of the Wu Yi Army of the General Wu Wei Army does not have a brigade artillery regiment, only the regimental artillery battalion, which belongs to three regiments.
From 1782, Datang successfully developed the Type 82 infantry fighting vehicle, and in 1783, the 105mm Type 83 self-propelled gun was developed on the basis of the territory of the Type 82 infantry fighting vehicle, and the original towed 105mm howitzer began to be assigned to the Wu Yi Army. Only the 1st and 3rd Brigades in the Wuyi Army have this artillery, and each artillery regiment has an artillery battalion of 18 howitzers, which is also the killer feature of the brigade.
Liao Yuhai saw Deng Yuanshun and greeted Deng Yuanshun with a smile and asked Deng Yuanshun to come over. He still has the temperament of an old-style officer in his bones, and he is used to pulling relationships, Deng Yuanshun and him are both from the Wuwei Army, and they both have been in Beijing, so they are closer. Deng Yuanshun also greeted Liao Yuhai, after all, he was his boss.
Liao Yuhai said: "This time we are fighting, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if there is no battle as a soldier, it will be difficult to be promoted." Although An An is fine, but since he wears this skin, he has to find a future. Yuanshun, you are young, it is the time to forge ahead boldly, this expedition to Gurkha is also the step of your entry, you must grasp it well! ”
Deng Yuanshun immediately said: "Obey the teachings of the brigade." ”
Liao Yuhai smiled again: "Actually, our third brigade is fighting this time, and it also has some meanings of unwarranted disasters. If the people above open their mouths, the people below us will have to spend a lot of time. His Majesty intends to use troops against the Gurkhas, which is to prove that he is not inferior to the first emperor. If you want to take the Gurkha, it is very easy for us, the overseas territory of Datang Donghui borders the Gurkha, and at least one brigade of Japanese soldiers in the Far East Theater is stationed there, and in recent years, Datang has successively formed the Siamese Corps, the Burma Corps and other local subordinate armies, even if it is easy to mobilize tens of thousands of troops to fight. But for the sake of His Majesty's obsession, we have to travel thousands of miles by boat from Shanghai to the Indian Ocean, and then run to the mountains to fight the Gurkhas. But I've heard that this Himalayas is the highest mountain in the world, and there is no higher place on the ground than that. ”
Deng Yuanshun didn't know what altitude sickness was all about, in recent years, he was at most out of illiteracy, but at most it was the level of primary school education, he said: "Don't worry about the brigade, our Wu Yijun are all iron-beaten men, no matter what the mountains and rivers are, they can't do anything to us, and then my Wu Yijun will inevitably win the first credit." ”
Liao Yuhai said with a smile: "Yes, yes, it's still good to have determination, but the Tang army has always been cautious and cautious in fighting, so there are few defeats, and there are many victories, although I am the leader this time, but how to act, it is still commanded by General Chang, and we want to see what General Chang deploys, let's be driven by it." ”
While the two were chatting, Deng Yuanshun's regiment over there had already been prepared and began to board the ship. (To be continued.) )
