The training of the synthetic battalion for the artillery aiming radar is progressing very quickly, and we have actually done a lot of this in the usual training, but this time it is just a further standardization and procedural work around the artillery aiming radar.

However, it is not the case that it is progressing very quickly, because we all know that the geography and hydrology of Beijing are very different from those of Vietnam, so it is not very meaningful to train in Beijing all the time, so after more than ten days, we simply decided to move the next training work to Yunnan.

In fact, this work had already begun as early as ten days ago, when the synthesis battalion had determined all the required equipment.

This is thanks to the foresight of Zhao Jingping, the chief of staff...... As a battalion commander, I often think about problems on the spot, that is, until I am forced to burn my eyebrows when I face an insurmountable problem, I have a solution, and I don't bother to think about it so much for those long-term plans.

But Zhao Jingping is different, for example, this time, what he thought of was: we will go to Yunnan to carry out the mission, but we have to bring armored vehicles, side three wheels and artillery, this is a big transportation task, side three wheels and artillery may be easy to solve, after all, the front line has these things, just hand over the artillery of any artillery battalion that has not fought to us or take it from the stock.

But armored vehicles are more troublesome, you must know that the Soviet-style armored vehicles captured from the Vietnamese equipped by the synthetic battalion are equipped with night vision devices, which is one of the reasons why the reader will choose this armored vehicle as the main force to protect the artillery sight radar. That is, this cannot be replaced by armored vehicles on the front line.

Therefore, the armored car must be transported to Yunnan by railway in advance, otherwise we will have to wait for more than 20 days for the armored car to be transported on the railway, which is a waste of time.

Therefore, Zhao Jingping had the foresight to transport six armored vehicles to Yunnan first...... The reason for the shipment of six. Needless to say, the reason for this is naturally to have a way to replace it in case something goes wrong with one of the armored vehicles.

This saves us a lot of time.

Our synthetic battalion was divided into several parts and took turns to fly to Yunnan. Originally it was a tactical company of scholars, after all, they were units that directly protected the artillery sighting radar. Therefore, it is necessary to go one step ahead and conduct the necessary reconnaissance or learn more about the route that the artillery sighting radar may pass.

The second is the special agent company and the sniper company, this mission requires helicopters, and they have to go and get acquainted with the helicopters assigned to them at the front line and the plainclothes police...... At this time, it should be said that it is an undercover agent lurking among the border people to get in touch.

Then there are the artillery units, which have to receive artillery, cars and other equipment prepared for them at the front line, and familiarize themselves with these equipment in advance.

After all these arrangements were made, the last thing to leave was the battalion headquarters and artillery sighting radar that I led.

The Cimberline radar purchased from the UK is not heavy, and it is only 390 kilograms including the power supply, and it is more than 500 kilograms plus several large boxes of parts. This weight can be mounted even by a helicopter.

Of course, such a long distance from Beijing to Yunnan is inconvenient to transport by helicopter. Moreover, such an important thing as artillery sighting radar is not at ease with the superiors to transport it by helicopter...... Straight five has a high failure rate, isn't it? If such a precious thing had a problem because of the helicopter failure, then Commander Zhun Zhang would even regret his intestines.

So Commander Zhang quickly transferred an "An-24" transport plane...... This thing was bought from the Soviet devils in the early years, and now there is no parts maintenance because of the bad relations with the Soviet Union, and now it is possible not to fly as much as possible.

From this point, we can also see how important it is for a country to have its own independent military industrial system, just like our country now, a large number of weapons and equipment are purchased from the Soviet Union, once the two sides of the Soviet Union break off trade, the consequences will be quite severe, because this will lead to the problem that a large number of weapons and equipment cannot be effectively maintained.

Of course. China has long recognized this problem, and in 66 years launched the task of reverse imitation of the "An-24" transport aircraft, but it was delayed because of ten years.

These are not the questions that I need to consider, I only know that I took the battalion headquarters and transported the artillery sighting radar to the airport under the protection of the guards. Then, under the supervision of Chen Weihua and others, the artillery sighting radar was loaded onto the plane and fixed.

Soon we got off the plane at Kunming Airport, and the scholar and Wu Dengxiong were already waiting for us at the airport with people.

Unlike usual, we didn't do anything special to transport the gunsight radar...... I'm clear about it. The more mysterious the delivery of some things, the more they will attract the attention of Vietnamese spies, and if we don't take it seriously. Then the spies of the Vietnamese army mixed with the people naturally thought that it was not a big deal.

So we carefully chose to arrive at Kunming Airport during the day...... There will be a feeling of wanting to cover the obstacles when transporting at night, although there are many people during the day. But the large number of troops coming and going can also dazzle the Vietnamese spies.

And we deliberately dressed ourselves up as artillerymen.

It seems easy to do this, Wu Dengxiong's soldiers were originally artillerymen, and as for artillery and automobiles, there are so many places in Kunming that you can ask for some from anywhere.

Then they hung the artillery sight radar, which was originally covered with canvas, behind the cars, and opened it into the group of cars with cannons...... When others saw it, they thought it was just a cart of shells or something!

"Battalion Commander Yang!" As soon as I got into the jeep, a cadre shook my hand and introduced himself: "I am a staff officer sent by Commander Zhang to be responsible for receiving you, my surname is Wei, and my single name is a Rong character!" ”

"Hmm! Hello! "I shook hands with Wei Rong, and secretly said that this time it was strange, it was the staff officers of the front-line troops who usually came to meet us, this is so that we can better cooperate with the front-line troops, such as what equipment we need or which battle we need to fight, etc., it is generally through guò This staff officer is in contact with the front-line troops.

And now it is the people sent by Commander Zhang who have come to meet us.

But it's not surprising to think about it, because of course it's because of the gun-sighting radar behind us...... This is now a high-level military secret, if not someone who can be fully trusted. It is impossible to involve him in this task.

In other words, this Staff Officer Wei is a person who can be trusted. And he will also be a bridge of communication between us and the troops on the front line.

Staff Officer Wei didn't seem to be a man of many words, because he didn't say anything after introducing himself. He didn't tell me what this mission was, nor did he tell me where he was going, and he just closed his eyes as if the people around him didn't care.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly: It seems that Commander Zhang assigned me this time is not only a trustworthy person, but also a person with a very strict mouth.

The convoy drove all the way to Malipo County...... This is a road I am very familiar with, and I don't know how many times I've been here before, so even if Staff Officer Wei doesn't say it, I don't have any opinion.

However, perhaps because we were disguised too similarly, some people spontaneously brought us some tea and nuts as we passed through several villages on the way.

At this point, the reader and his men became nervous for a moment...... I know why they're nervous, but we only have two artillery radars in the country, in case there are a few Vietnamese spies hiding among them. Then we will die before we can get out of school.

But I gave the readers a look and motioned for them not to stand in the way.

My judgment is that at this time, the Vietnamese side did not know that our army had artillery sighting radar at all, and since they did not know that our army had artillery sighting radar, how could there be spies who would target such an "ordinary artillery unit" as ours?

Therefore, if you want to act like this, if you come forward to stop those people at this time, and there are Vietnamese spies lurking next to or among these people, it will arouse their suspicion.

So soon the villagers brought tea and water to us, and some people even stood next to the artillery radar with boiling kettles...... This made the reader smile even though he still had a smile on his face. But there was already a high level of tension in his eyes.

I think if these people knew that there was a cannon sight radar next to them that was more expensive than the same weight of gold, I am afraid that they would regret not being able to touch it.

Only then did Staff Officer Wei open his eyes and look at me in surprise, obviously he didn't expect me to be so bold.

This reminds me of one thing. This happened in England, when South Africa was still a British colony, and the British decided to ship the largest diamond ever found in South Africa, the "Star of Africa", to London to present to the king. After months of thinking about how to get the $7.5 billion diamond safely to its destination, they came up with a solution...... The eggplant-sized diamond was simply mailed in a box. A month later, it appeared in the royal pouch at Buckingham Palace.

So there is a saying that "the simpler the safer", and what I do now is "the more ordinary the safer".

The convoy waddled along the highway without danger. Due to the bad road conditions and the fear that the gunsight radar would be damaged by too much bumps, the convoy drove very slowly. I fell asleep to the roar of the motor in the swaying and didn't wake up until the jeep stopped with a "whoosh".

When I opened my sleepy eyes, I realized that I didn't know when I had come to a hidden forest base.

It should be said that this base was established by our synthetic battalion, because I didn't see any strange faces here, most of them were from the tactical company.

Looking at the dense foliage overhead and the surrounding terrain, I nodded secretly: This is indeed a good place, the traffic extends in all directions, and the terrain is not high, which is very convenient for the towed artillery sighting radar to enter and exit, and the branches and leaves overhead are obviously the best camouflage for the artillery sighting radar, even if the Vietnamese army has reconnaissance planes moving nearby, it will not be able to shoot anything, and there is a big mountain due south, and it is difficult for the Vietnamese army's long-range artillery fire to reach here, so it can be said that it is prepared for the placement of artillery sighting radar.

"Battalion commander!" When I walked into the tent that was the battalion headquarters, Zhang Zuoliang, who had arrived here first to arrange work, greeted me.

"It's all arranged!" I asked.

"Don't worry, it's all arranged!" Zhang Zuoliang replied.

"Hmm!" I nodded, and my eyes quickly turned to the map on my desk.

"Our position is here, Position One!" Zhang Zuoliang pointed to the map and said: "The No. 1 position is no more than or no less from the front line, and the straight-line distance is exactly fifteen kilometers, which is just suitable for the 'Sky Eye' observation." ”

"Sky Eye" is the nickname given by the soldiers to the artillery sighting radar, and it is very simple to take this nickname, because it can observe shells flying in the air, just like an eye in the sky.

On the other hand, we are worried that once the name "artillery sighting radar" is intercepted by the Yue devils, it is very likely that the secret will be leaked, after all, the Yue devils have the Soviet Union behind them, and they only need to find a Soviet military adviser to inquire about the "artillery sighting radar", and they will soon know what this thing is.

But if what they hear is the "eye of the sky...... I'm afraid it's going to take a lot of effort.

"According to the plan." Zhang Zuoliang continued: "We assigned the tactical company to the No. 1 position, in which 20 snipers were divided into two groups of ten people each, and took turns to lurk in different locations on the periphery of the position. Four armored vehicles were distributed in four directions, two were in positions for emergency or replacement. The Agent Company is here, and the second position ......"

"Hmm! How is it so far? "Looking at the No. 2 position on the map and us in a straight line, we are at least a dozen miles away, I can't help but be a little surprised.

"This is Staff Officer Wei's idea!" Zhang Zuoliang looked at Staff Officer Wei, and then said: "What Staff Officer Wei means is that the helicopter take-off and landing of the agent company is too conspicuous, which can easily attract the attention of the Vietnamese army agents, so it is best to arrange the position farther away, and this seems a little far, but the straight-line distance of seven kilometers is only two or three minutes for a helicopter, so there is enough time and conditions to provide us with cover, and it will not affect the reconnaissance mission of the agent company on the periphery!" ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but nodded, it seems that this Staff Officer Wei is not an idle person.

Later, I learned that Staff Officer Wei had done more than that, he had even specially transferred a surface-to-air missile unit to lurk near the No. 2 position.

So the more devil agent reconnoitred...... His eyes were quickly drawn to the surface-to-air missile unit, and then he took it for granted that our helicopter-equipped special agent company must be responsible for protecting this missile unit.

At this time, I wondered, aren't surface-to-air missiles also very valuable to our army?!

Staff Officer Wei's statement was: "We still have missiles after they were blown up, but the artillery sighting radar can be used on the battlefield, just like that!" (To be continued......)
