Chapter 85

At first, I thought our destination was very close to Pingxiang...... But the car swayed for seven or eight hours before it stopped, and with the sensitivity of direction that I had cultivated on the battlefield, I knew that it was going in the opposite direction of the front!

Think about it later...... This is actually normal......

We're going to a base with helicopters, so if it's too close to the border...... It's not like the Vietnamese artillery will be covered by two and a half halves!

Not to mention...... We were swaying in the car for seven or eight hours, and it was not just a matter of minutes in the helicopter, so there was no need to take such a big risk to arrange the base near the border.

When I stepped out of the jeep...... I guessed correctly again, this is another secret base, and it is much larger than the secret base in Padongna, and there are many more helicopters...... There are more than 30 of them!

I believe that all this was arranged by Commander Zhang, and he also thought of this arrangement with me...... Just like our battle in Patona, after a battle, the twenty helicopters will need a period of maintenance and repair...... So what if something new happens that requires us to strike again?

If there are no redundant helicopters...... Then we can only stay where we are and stare dryly, on the contrary, if we arrange a dozen more helicopters here in advance...... We have room for turnover, and if we can't do it, we will use two batches of helicopters to take turns to fight!

"Battalion Commander Yang!" Staff Officer Ye saluted me and said, "The order of the superiors...... It's for you to do the acclimatization training here first, and the time is ten days...... If you need anything, just mention me! ”

"Hmm!" I nodded.

There are ten days...... This is at least much better than Badong, but ...... When we went to Badong, we were on a plane. Now I've been in the train for five days. It does take a little time to regain combat effectiveness!

So I didn't say it...... After a night's rest. The next day we started the acclimatization training.

The infantry side is mainly to quickly recover and adapt to the climate and hydrology here, helicopter pilots ...... Of course, it is to communicate with the mechanic and check whether your straight five meets your own requirements!

Anyway, I sometimes get quite surprised by these helicopters...... Isn't our country a poor country? Why wait a while, there are dozens of straight five changes here, and dozens of them later...... It's not like it's bad money!

But it's not surprising when you think about it...... In this era, although our country is poor, it is willing to spend money on the army, for example, the size of the army is unprecedentedly large...... Millions of people, such as military aircraft, is unprecedented...... A total of several thousand sorties of various fighters!

Merely...... This quantity is a lot, but the quality is a little bit unstable. Whether it is the Air Force, the Army, or the Navy, it seems that this is the case, that is, our army is "quantity but not quality" that is widely rumored abroad, and this is a portrayal of our army at this time.

That's why it's ...... In the decades that followed, the reform of our army developed in one direction...... Discretion over quality, and focus on modernity!

But that's all for later...... As for now, we still have a lot of backward helicopters like the Zhiwu in our hands, and it doesn't take a lot of technical content to change the Zhiwu to the Zhiwu...... That is, to add some night flight systems, add a machine gun and rocket nest, so we don't seem to worry about not switching to the Zhiwu at all!

Ten days...... Adaptive training is enough for troops like ours...... The general army had to be fully adapted to the local climate and hydrology. It's going to take about a month. But we are a composite battalion, a force that is frequently present on different battlefields and requires rapid adaptation to the local battlefield...... So 10 days was easy for us!

You need to know the way...... We're a team that can adapt to fighting in a hot and cold place like Afghanistan. Now on this Vietnamese border...... Although there are some more annoyances that Afghanistan does not have, such as mosquitoes and the like, fortunately, we have been in this environment for a long time, so it is not difficult to adapt now.

The problem is ...... My request is not as simple as adaptation......

"Here's what I think!" At a meeting I convened, I said to the cadres: "The last time we fought in Badong, we stumbled upon a very good tactic...... That is, the tactics used by the platoon commander when fighting in the office building! ”

"Oh!" The warriors couldn't help but nod their heads.

"The battalion commander is right!" Liang Lianbing first agreed: "At that time, I was a unit that cooperated with the platoon commander, so I watched it very carefully...... In the past, our training was from the top to the bottom of the building. Although this is not bad, we also occupy a condescending position, and cooperate with the troops attacking from below...... It can also crush enemies. But here's the problem...... The entrance to the corridor is too narrow, and it takes us a long time to pay a large price to control the entire building, and sometimes the corridor is blocked by the enemy with explosives or firepower, and it can only be attacked layer by layer, which is time-consuming and gives the enemy time to prepare. But if ...... Attacking like a platoon commander is completely different! ”

"Makes sense!" Scar nodded and said, "Tie the rope to the attacking building like rock climbing...... This will give our army a lot of offensive flexibility, we can quickly deploy our forces, not all compressed into a straight line like the attack on the corridors, and we can also attack all parts of the entire building at the same time, as long as all sides are well coordinated...... That is, to encircle and strike the entire building in a three-dimensional way, which will undoubtedly reduce the combat time and enhance the effect of the strike! ”

"What does the battalion commander mean ......" Zhao Jingping said, "We will train according to this tactic?" ”

I nodded, this is what I've been thinking about on the train for the past few days.

"But ......," Zhao Jingping said with some concern: "Tactics like this...... It's only useful in architecture, and the last battle should be said to be special. The enemy we are facing now...... I think most of them are still in the jungle or on the highlands......"

Of course, Zhao Jingping's worries are reasonable, it is impossible to fight the devils in the building every time!

But I was thinking more than that......

"It doesn't have to be used only against the building!" I said, "We can try to practice hanging on a helicopter and lowering it to attack!" ”

"What?" Hearing this, the cadres couldn't help but be dumbfounded. (To be continued......)
