"I'm afraid I can't do this!" Commander Zhang thought about it and denied: "Since we had nuclear weapons, we have promised the international community not to use nuclear weapons against other countries first!" ”

"That's right!" I said, "But that's not to other countries, but if the Soviets invade our country, we will use nuclear weapons on our soil!" ”

Hearing this, Commander Zhang couldn't help but be stunned, this statement seemed to make sense.

"What good is the use of nuclear weapons for us?" Then Commander Zhang asked again: "Especially on the land of our own country!" ”

"Let's put it this way!" After thinking about it, I pointed to the map and replied, "In fact, it is almost impossible to win this battle against an imaginary enemy, to be honest, if we want to win it in reality, and we have already come to this conclusion in the meeting. But we had to fight, and our way of playing was 'active defense', and the first thing was to use the defense of the border troops to give the country time to switch to a wartime mechanism, so that the people and industry could withdraw to the south. In other words, the people should have been emptied by the end of the battle.

On the other hand, in order to eat up our garrison troops, the Soviet side will have to send more or more troops to attack our troops from north to south, and if our army uses nuclear weapons until the last moment of the battle......"

"Then there will be many Soviet soldiers buried together!" Commander Xu said.

"Yes!" I nodded: "What's more important is that the nuclear radiation after the nuclear explosion will last for many years, so that a polluted isolation zone will be formed on the Sino-Soviet and Sino-Mongolian borders." As a result, it seemed impossible for the Soviets to continue their attacks from north to south, as their troops and supplies had to be radiated through the contaminated area of Guò. The Soviet devils were a nuclear power. There's no way they won't think about it! ”

Commander Zhang thought about it and couldn't help but nod slowly.

In fact, there is no way to do it. Although China is a nuclear power in this era, that is, it has developed its own atomic bomb and hydrogen bomb, but the nuclear weapon does not mean that the original can be launched, the reason is that there is also a delivery method that cannot be intercepted by the enemy.

Like the first atomic bomb dropped by the Yankees, it was dropped by a bomber. But that was during World War II, and now with the technology of technology, radars can be detected by the enemy even when they fly together. Coupled with the fact that our air power is far from a potential enemy, the method of bomber delivery will basically not work.

A better approach would be to miniaturize nuclear weapons. This method is obviously the best, because missiles have the advantages of fast speed, small size, long range, and difficult interception, which is why the United States and the Soviet Union vigorously develop their own missiles.

However, at this time, China's missiles were far from those of the United States and the Soviet Union, and they did not even achieve the miniaturization of nuclear bombs. Therefore, although China is a nuclear power, the Soviet Union has no scruples about China, and is brazenly preparing to attack China from the north and south...... What can China do if it has nuclear weapons? The Soviet Union can rely on the absolute superiority of their air power to ensure that these nuclear weapons do not threaten the Soviet Union, that is to say, only the Soviet Union can fight us, but we cannot hit the Soviet Union.

Of course, this is not to say that it is really fighting, and the lethality and impact of nuclear weapons are too great. I won't use it until it's a last resort.

But this is a deeply asymmetrical shock, that is, China seems to be completely inferior to nuclear weapons and has no say.

Now, however, we have to let the Soviet Union know that this is not the case. Because we don't need advanced missiles, and we don't need to miniaturize nuclear weapons to make a difference.

"The question is how are we going to fight then?" Commander Xu then asked this question: "Delivered by plane?" The enemy has air supremacy, but I am afraid that it will be difficult for us to succeed in the delivery! ”

"No!" I said, "There is no need to be so troublesome, because we are imagining that the Soviet devils invaded our country, so we just need to bury these nuclear weapons in the ground!" ”

"Buried in the ground?"

"Yes!" I nodded: "Use it like a landmine, build a few secret tunnels, and arrange a few people to be responsible for detonating them...... This will undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on the Soviet devils, because they simply have no way to accurately find a secret tunnel with nuclear weapons in such a large area, and even if they find one, they dare not guarantee that there will be another, so the Soviet army will face a problem, and the moment they win the battle means that they will also be finished! To put it simply, this is a complaint to the Soviets that if they invade our country according to their plan, they will have to pay at least hundreds of thousands of troops or more. ”

"Hmm!" Commander Zhang nodded and said: "The Soviet devils have been dragged down by Afghanistan at this time, and they can't bear this price at all, this plan is to tell the Soviet Union that can defeat China lightly without paying much price, and let them give up this delusion!" ”

It is ironic that the development of nuclear weapons, which is dangerous to all mankind, can bring peace, but it is true.

Then Commander Zhang didn't say anything, just patted me on the shoulder and left with the staff officer.

I knew that he left in such a hurry because he just needed to discuss this matter with other high-level executives.

Of course, this is not to say that we are really willing to use nuclear weapons on our own soil, but it is also a deterrent that can discourage the Soviet devils from acting rashly and thus bring peace.

So the exercises on the second and third days went on as usual.

By business as usual, we mean that both the Red and Blue armies have let go of their hands and feet, and the Blues are no longer as restrained as before, worrying about what to do if they finally win the battle.

But to be honest, we still underestimated the strength of the Red Army a little. Originally, we thought that after the surprise attack on the tank regiments and artillery units of the Red Army, the Red Army would be crushed and beaten by us, but the facts proved that we were wrong.

The reason is that the Red Army is a unit that has experienced the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and it has not only experienced but also fought several vicious battles, and many of them even have veteran cadres who have fought that war, and they know how to fight this battle without air superiority or artillery superiority.

So the Red Army quickly changed its tactics. No longer bound to the constraints of modern warfare. Instead, they took advantage of the darkness of the night to attack everywhere.

This really surprised me. Because the Red Army, which was on the defensive, and the defender who had a geographical advantage, was now attacking our positions instead.

However, this tactic did work, as the Blues did not expect the Reds to take the initiative at all, and on the other hand, because we continued to attack, there were not many mines laid in front of the positions...... This is the inertia of the attackers, who think that they will attack the next day, so these mines will soon become their own problems, plus they think that they are attacking. The defense was almost done, so it was inevitable that there would be various holes in the fortifications.

This gave the Red Army an opportunity, and their sudden attack even divided the forward units of our army into several pieces, so that the troops of the Red and Blue armies were intertwined in the night, and no one could tell whether the troops around them were friends or foes.

This confusion was exactly what the Red Army wanted, because they no longer had air superiority and artillery superiority, and in this case biting with the enemy was the best option, because only then would the enemy's air power and artillery fire be rendered useless by the rat trap.

But it is clear that the Red Army is not very skilled in the use of this tactic...... I even have some doubts that if we had faced a real volunteer army during the exercise, the Blue Army line would have collapsed.

The fact is that we are not facing a volunteer army, although the 38th Army has a tradition of volunteers. There are also many veteran commanders of the Volunteer Army who are cadres, but they have not fought in decades after all. As a result, many problems were exposed during the attack.

For example, the attack was not resolute enough, and when they launched a "defense with offense" against the Blue Army's defense line, they still held on to the hope of sticking to the Yinshan defense line, so the troops used to attack the Blue Army were only one-third of their total strength, which directly made the Red Army's follow-up forces insufficient to expand the results.

In fact, according to my thoughts, the Red Army should attack with two-thirds of its total strength, "attacking instead of defending", when they attack, it is a kind of defense, so there is no need for so many troops stationed in the Yinshan defense line.

Apparently the Red Army later discovered this mistake and immediately sent more troops in an attempt to join the "melee". But it was too late, and the Blues artillery reacted quickly and fired at it.

For example, the Reds were not bold enough to penetrate the Reds, and after successfully inserting into the Blues' defence, they would often attack on the flanks to assist the other Blues. Of course, there is a reason for this fight, that is, to let more Red Army troops enter the Blue Army line.

But the problem is that this is the time when the identification of friend and foe is confused, that is, not only the Blue Army cannot be recognized, but also the Red Army will also have the problem of identification. So it's clear that it's not a good idea to work together at this point.

My idea is that the Reds should have a big interlude at this time, and once they open a gap in the Blues line, they will boldly insert themselves into the heart of the Blues, regardless of the situation of the other friendly forces around them.

Needless to say, it would be a second line of defense that was completely unprepared, or a tank unit that would be transferred to the second line to rest, or an artillery unit, a supply convoy or even a headquarters.

If it can be interspersed with the rear to occupy an important place, then it will almost be possible to repeat the history of the 38th Army interspersed with Sanso-ri and Yongwon-ri on the Korean battlefield.

It's a pity that the Red Army is not a volunteer army after all, so in the end, this counteroffensive that is very likely to turn defeat into victory for them ended up being a failure due to insufficient troops and bright sky.

On the fourth day, the Blues launched a general attack on the positions held by the Red Army, and this general attack was to gather all the forces of the Blue Army, and the Red Army could be said to be surrounded by the Blue Army...... There are the tank troops and infantry of the Blue Army in front, the airborne troops of the Blue Army in the back, and the fighters of the Blue Army of various types on the head, and the helicopters are constantly using guò rope landing and air foot coordination to occupy the high ground of Yinshan, and use these high ground to divide and disintegrate the Red Army's defense line in Yinshan.

That is to say, we have miraculously completed the four subjects scheduled at the beginning of the exercise, anti-tank cluster attack, anti-airborne, defense of fortified positions, and counter-assault.

The only difference is that the next two subjects are reversed.

Finally, when the Red Army's defensive line was about to be broken through and the battle ended...... An earth-shattering explosion suddenly erupted from the depths of Yin Mountain, followed by a sky-high flame and smoke rising into the air, and a huge mushroom cloud appeared in front of us.

Of course, this can't be a real nuclear bomb, we just use explosives and various fuel fuels to simulate the effect of a nuclear bomb explosion. The method is to dig a pit, fill it with hundreds of kilograms of explosives, and then make a large container on top of it, filled with a mixture of gasoline and diesel. The result is that as soon as it explodes, it is loud and flames, not very different from the appearance of a small nuclear bomb when it explodes.

However, although we knew that this was not true, we were still shocked by this scene at this moment.

"Good boy!" Liang Lianbing held his gun and looked at the mushroom cloud that exploded at the sunset, and couldn't help but say, "This is what the nuclear bomb looks like when it explodes?" It's really famous! ”

Zhao Jingping smiled beside him: "The real nuclear bomb will explode hundreds of times more powerful than this!" ”

"Really?" Zhao Jingping's statement couldn't help but make the soldiers around him exclaim:

"I've heard that this thing can blow up a city in one blow!"

"And a lot of people will die, if this is a real nuclear bomb, we are afraid that we will all be glorious now!"

……

Some fighters were skeptical, unable to understand how it was just a larger bomb that could kill such a large area.

I didn't explain much about this, because I knew very well that many of my soldiers were not very proficient, and it would be more difficult to explain to them about radiation and those invisible rays that can kill people.

Of course, as a commander, I didn't have to talk too much about this issue to the soldiers, and I didn't even get them to take measures against radiation.

One reason is that I know that I am lucky not to have this in the future wars, and the other is that I also know that when this happens, no matter what measures are taken, it seems that it will not help.

All I need to care about is that we've made such a big move...... The Soviets should have noticed it!

In fact, this is also the purpose of our waste of hundreds of kilograms of explosives and a lot of gasoline and diesel, the Soviet devils have spy satellites, don't they? I think when they see this, they should think about whether they really can afford to bear the price. (To be continued......)
