"Battalion Commander Yang!" Because they could not agree on the issue of training, Staff Officer Li had no choice but to contact Commander Wu of the 319th Division. After hearing about this, Master Wu hung up the phone with me: "I'm sorry I didn't pick you up in person because of official business, I know this matter has embarrassed you, after all, this is a task assigned to you by your superiors, and it is indeed a little inappropriate for us to do this." But I hope that Battalion Commander Yang can still consider the actual situation. ”

"Actually?" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this.

"Yes!" Division Commander Wu replied: "What you just said is also reasonable, from the perspective of shocking the Indian devils, it is indeed up to you to take action from the synthetic battalion, and I think this is also the purpose of the superiors who asked you to carry out this mission." But...... On the one hand, this process may be relatively long, that is, you need a long period of time to adapt to the plateau war; On the other hand, Battalion Commander Yang thinks about it, can you stay here for a long time? If you just give the Indian devils a little color and shock them and leave, then what if there is anything else? Transferring you from Beijing or another battlefield? That's not realistic! ”

"Hmm!" As soon as I heard this, I also felt that what Master Wu said made sense.

In fact, in history, these Black Hawk direct ascensions were served on the plateau of Tibet or Xinyi, the reason is very simple, the war on the Sino-Vietnamese border has been stabilized, and Vietnam's equipment is relatively backward, plus the air forces of the two armies have not participated in the war.

On the contrary, on the Sino-Indian border, India's equipment is relatively advanced because of the Soviet Union and the United States...... This is one of the benefits of India's non-aligned policy, which began in '61 with 25 other countries in launching the Non-Aligned Movement, that is, not taking sides in the Cold War in which the United States and the Soviet Union competed for hegemony.

The one that has benefited the most from this movement is India. It is, after all, a big country. Whether it is a strong country will not be discussed for the time being. However, there is no doubt that it has a population and a vast land area similar to that of China. Therefore, many international affairs, such as China's failure to establish a dialogue mechanism with the United States during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and the non-aligned India must be communicated to China when China needs to send any voice to the United States, or when the United States needs to send any message to China.

Of course, the United States at that time did not bother to convey any voice to China, and the Yankees at that time still thought that the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army was like that a few Japanese soldiers could occupy a city during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and they took it for granted that it would not take a few months to occupy Korea, so they did not take the information and warnings transmitted by China seriously at all.

It turns out that the Americans were wrong. Moreover, it is very wrong, and it is precisely because of the bloody war that lasted several years that Chinese soldiers can even be said to be all Chinese in the international arena.

Simply put, the United States and the Soviet Union are willing to sell weapons to India, just like the war in 62, China, which was at odds with the Soviet Union and had just fought to resist US aggression and aid Korea, can be said to have offended the United States and the Soviet Union at the same time, and as a result, both the United States and the Soviet Union sold weapons to support India in a war with us.

(I believe this is one of the reasons why the Chinese army withdrew after winning in '62.) You must know that it is at the same time at the same time with the two giants of the United States and the Soviet Union, and it is also directly fighting with India, a non-aligned power...... That is to offend almost the entire nation of the earth. And so it goes. Even if we fought this war because we were unreasonably provoked by India, it is impossible for international public opinion to stand on our side, and even the United States and the Soviet Union may directly send troops to intervene, which means that this war cannot continue to be fought, and it is undoubtedly the best choice to accept it when it is good. ）

The situation in India now is similar to that of that time, it is still a non-aligned policy, and it has obtained a large number of advanced equipment from the United States and the Soviet Union, such as the aircraft carrier is British, and the fighter planes are British, French, and Soviet Union.

However, there are two sides to everything, and it is indeed a good thing that India can buy advanced equipment from all over the world, that is, from both camps, but it is also a bad thing.

The advantage is that India can take the ready-made equipment, no matter what equipment you want.

The disadvantage is that the equipment of the two camps of the United States and the Soviet Union is not the same in terms of ammunition, parts or systems, and if there is no strong industrial base to digest and absorb it, it will severely attack the establishment of its own military industrial system...... All the money has been earned by foreign military industry, and the domestic military industry can only stare at the part of porridge, even if India later consciously threw money at its own military industry, but it was also unwilling to start from the basics and achieved nothing.

For example, India can buy more advanced equipment from abroad for a little money, so how can it be possible for the military industry to study backward equipment, and this backward equipment will cost more money and time.

So in the end, even if India wanted to develop its own equipment, it would buy parts from other countries and assemble them at home, and finally assemble them into a "four dislikes", such as the "Arjun Tank" and the "Glorious Fighter......

Of course, these are modern things, and India at this time was still like a fish in water in the US and Soviet camps, but they did not realize that this was actually poison.

But from the current point of view, India's equipment is still quite advanced, especially after it had its first aircraft carrier in 57, it is no wonder that in 62 years it will call itself "the third in the world" and not take China in its eyes.

In this way, in order to deal with the advanced equipment on the Indian side, such as the Mi-26 that India now has, China has to assign the Black Hawk to serve in this area, and only in this way can it suppress India in terms of momentum.

"Or else!" After thinking about it, I said to Commander Wu: "We can train the two units together, so that we can learn and communicate faster and better, so as to achieve the purpose of adapting to each other in the shortest possible time." On the other hand, it is also possible to take into account both short-term and long-term strategic objectives on the battlefield. ”

"Well, that's a good idea!" Hearing this, Commander Wu agreed without thinking about it: "In this way, it is the best of both worlds, and I hope that Battalion Commander Yang will teach my subordinates more." As you know, because our troops are located on the border, the pace of reform is slow, and now it is just right to have your synthetic battalion to train! ”

I have already seen this from the equipment of the 319th Division, and I think it has something to do with the harsh living conditions and relatively closed transportation on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

It's just that in the end, this kind of joint training is not taught by others, but by others.

Since the 319th Division was ready to let them participate in the training early in the morning, the two units met quickly.

The 319th Division's participating troops were a battalion of more than 500 people, and the battalion commander was a cadre named Chen Xin.

"Hello Battalion Commander Yang!" Camp Commander Chen shook my hand warmly.

At this time, I realized that Battalion Commander Chen also had a dark face, and not only Camp Commander Chen, but also the cadres and even the soldiers under his command were like this.

Later, I learned that this is actually a characteristic of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau...... The air on the plateau is thin and ultraviolet rays are strong, and after staying outdoors for a long time, it will naturally be as black as charcoal.

On the other hand, I noticed that the soldiers of this battalion seemed to be a little different from the rest of the troops, they looked at us as if they had seen us when and where, but for a moment they could not remember what it meant.

When I thought about it, I said "oh", when we went to the battlefield as new soldiers, those veterans looked at us like this.

In other words, it means to look down on our synthetic camp.

This makes me feel a little incredible, in the name of our synthetic battalion, where it is not well-known, which unit does not look up to us, and this battalion will look down on us.

At first, I thought it was because the information here was relatively closed, but later I realized that this is not all the case...... Chen Xin and the others have actually heard some examples of our synthetic battalion, after all, they are all soldiers, and they are also soldiers guarding the border who may break out a war with the enemy. In this state, soldiers will be particularly interested in fighting in other regions, this is also to pass the time of boredom or reduce stress, and secondly, they can also learn some lessons that can be learned.

Therefore, although the information here is relatively closed due to transportation, they still heard about the cousins of our synthetic battalion on the battlefield from the supply team or the soldiers who occasionally went home to visit their families.

When I heard this, I was a little puzzled, if this is the case, then why do they still look at us like this?!

Later, I got the answer from Chen Xinna......

"Alas, these rabbits!" Chen Xin scolded a little embarrassedly when I asked: "They don't care how majestic the synthetic camp was before, in fact, they admire you in their hearts, many people talk about the synthetic camp after tea, not to mention how happy they are to train with you." But we have a tradition here, no matter how good you used to be, as long as it's the first time you come back to this plateau, it's a recruit! ”

I begged a little about this tradition, but I soon had to be convinced.

The reason is simple, all the qiē in the plateau is not the same as in the plain...... This may not have such an impact on ordinary people, but for the troops who are going to fight on the plateau, especially those who are going to conduct special operations, it is simply to another world, another completely strange world.

In this world, we even have to relearn some of the tactics we would have learned. (To be continued......)
