Chapter 208: Escort
I have a few thoughts on this small-caliber bullet.
The biggest headache for me is whether there will be a series of logistical problems once the AK74 is equipped...... It shouldn't be difficult to imitate this bullet, isn't it just a bullet, the structure of the warhead will be a little more complicated, but it's not high-tech, if you can't even imitate it, then China will have no science and technology at all.
So I'm not worried about that at all, the point is...... Even with these bullets, is the agent company really suitable for equipping the AK74?
What about supply chaos? The equipment of the agent company is different from that of the engineer company, the sniper company, etc., and the bullets are not universal...... Then the battle will be complicated.
Besides...... OUR SPECIAL AGENT COMPANY OFTEN HAS TO GO DEEP INTO THE TERRITORY OF THE VIETNAMESE ARMY TO FIGHT, AND IT IS INEVITABLE THAT THERE WILL BE BULLETS RUNNING OUT DURING THE BATTLE AND WE NEED TO REPLENISH AMMUNITION FROM THE ENEMY, SO IF THE VIETNAMESE ARMY IS USING 7.62MM BULLETS, WHILE WE ARE USING A 5.45MM AK74...... That would not have been possible to replenish ammunition from the Vietnamese army.
However, these problems seem to be overcome......
The problem of supply confusion...... The equipment of the special agent company should be different from that of ordinary troops, and the important thing is that the troops that often cooperate with the special agent company should have the same bullets, such as the special agent company and the sniper company, as well as a tactical company in my hands...... The three infantry companies often had to cooperate in battle, and if they were all equipped differently and used different bullets, it would make it difficult to coordinate and replenish.
But this problem does not seem to be a problem, because last night we used twenty armored vehicles to snatch all the weapons, at least more than 500 guns......
From now on. It was really not enough to equip three companies with these more than 500 guns. Because there are too many agents and sniper companies...... But as the training progresses, these personnel will continue to be eliminated. In the end, the agent company and the sniper company will be controlled at about one hundred and fifty, plus most of the sniper companies still use SVD, and automatic rifles are still auxiliary equipment, so these more than 500 AK74s are enough to equip three infantry companies.
As for the rest of the troops...... For example, mortar companies, engineer companies, tank companies, etc...... It doesn't matter if their guns and bullets will be universal, and the tasks in combat are different from one position to another!
The problem of not being able to replenish ammo from the enemy...... This really can't be solved, I can't get all the devils to change to AK74 or produce small-caliber bullets!
But on the other hand...... As the tactics of special operations have been perfected, it has become less and less common to replenish ammunition from the enemy. The reason is that special operations pay attention to quick combat and quick withdrawal, that is, retreat immediately after a successful blow...... Even if you don't succeed, you have to retreat immediately. Nor does this allow us to replenish ammunition from the enemy, in terms of time and conditions.
Of course. Vietnamese agents still have to think about this...... The reason is that the combat mode of Vietnamese agents is actually still in the initial state of special operations, that is, infiltration, camouflage, and lurking...... And then the battle and retreat. As a result, Vietnamese agents can carry out any task for several days or even longer, and as a result, ammunition from the enemy is often replenished.
I think...... It is precisely because of this aspect that the Vietnamese army agents are still using AK47 even though they have a more advanced AK74 and do not use it.
This is a modern special operation...... Tactics such as disguised as an enemy army to blend in or lurk for a few days and then retreat are rarely used, most of them wear their own military uniforms and carry advanced equipment to the destination with helicopters or submarines, and then run away with lightning speed, making people unable to defend themselves!
Other words...... As long as I use it properly, I need to think about replenishing ammunition from the enemy!
So I didn't have to think about it anymore and decided to use AK74...... Soviet and American assault rifles already use small-caliber bullets. In addition, there are still two or three years before the release of our army's Type 81 rifle, and during this time, I will encounter these problems if I want to equip the agent company with any more advanced or competent individual weapon...... It's up to me to avoid it.
"Battalion commander!" Just when I was thinking nonsense. The correspondent shouted at me, "The phone call, it's Commander Zhang!" ”
"How? The war is going well! Commander Zhang asked on the phone.
"Report to the commander, everything is going well!"
"I just received a telegram...... Say how many Soviet soldiers did you catch? Commander Zhang asked, "Is it true?" ”
"It's true!" I said, "There are four of them, and the oldest is the lieutenant colonel...... It was the advisory group sent by the USSR to Vietnam! ”
"How did you deal with it?" Commander Zhang's voice sounded a little nervous.
Actually, I can understand Commander Zhang's thoughts...... The matter of the Soviet prisoners can be big or small, and if you say it in a small way, it is just an ordinary few prisoners, and if you talk about it in a big way, it is likely to be the fuse that caused the Shijie War.
"Didn't deal with it much!" I said, "Just ask a few questions, and then I'm up!" ”
"Hmm!" Commander Zhang said: "You did a good job, but remember...... Don't force confessions, don't mess around, and take proper care of your food! Do you understand? ”
"Yes!" I understand this command...... Of course, there is still some valuable information on those Soviet soldiers that has not been dug up, but their political value will be far greater than their military value, so it doesn't matter whether they supply it or not.
"So be it!" After that, Commander Zhang may still be a little uneasy, so he added: "You contact Deputy Division Commander Wang and ask him to arrange a time to send these Soviet soldiers to Beijing!" ”
"Yes!"
After hanging up the phone, I immediately hung up the phone again to the headquarters of the Ninth Division...... As Commander Zhang said, this time must be arranged by Deputy Division Commander Wang, because our synthetic battalion does not have an independent logistics organization, so naturally there is no information on the round-trip of military columns.
"You kid!" As soon as Deputy Division Commander Wang heard about this, he was very happy: "These Soviet devils are really unlucky, there are only a few people in total...... You can also catch it. No problem...... I'll ask the logistics department to arrange a time right away! ”
The time was set quickly...... Because of the war at this time, there were many military trains going back and forth, both during the day and at night...... As long as we can get people to Kunming at these points in time.
Originally, I thought that it would be good to just hand over the people to the Ninth Division, but Deputy Division Commander Wang played Tai Chi with me at this time: "I said Battalion Commander Yang...... Commander Zhang just asked me to arrange a time, but he didn't say that our Ninth Division would be responsible for sending people away! Besides...... These are Soviet soldiers, and they have a lot of responsibility, so if something happens, I can't afford it...... Even if the Ninth Division had such a mission, I would still hand it over to your synthesis battalion, wouldn't it be right for you to send it now? ”
Then Zhao Jingping knew about it...... If you think about it carefully, I think this matter is not trivial, we must take it seriously, plus there will be no combat after this, and there is nothing wrong anyway...... I will personally lead the team to escort the ...... in an armored car
I was so angry...... Isn't it just to send a few prisoners of war? It is necessary to make this happen?!!
Besides...... This person is already in our hands, what can the devil do with us? Rescued? It's easy to see people, it's hard to save people...... We just need to take a few guns and put them on the heads of those Soviet soldiers, and the Vietnamese army will have no choice, right?
But being idle is idle anyway...... It's really a little tired of staying in this small county town for a long time, so why not have the opportunity to go to Kunming to play? So the matter was promised.
This escort time should be sooner rather than later...... The time was chosen on the night of the third day, and the reason why the escort was chosen at night was because there were too many people during the day......
I am still quite clear about the special operations of Vietnamese agents...... According to ordinary people's thinking, the Vietnamese army agents dare not come out to carry out activities during the day, and the night is a good time for the Vietnamese army agents to carry out activities.
But that's not the case at all...... The reason is that we are now in China, and there are Chinese people everywhere around here, and this is during the day...... As long as the Vietnamese army casually disguises itself as civilians and mixes in with it, and then finds an opportunity to make trouble, we have no way at all......
If this is a fight, there will be Chinese people everywhere, and it is inevitable that there will be accidental injuries. If you don't fight, you can only let the Vietnamese army agents be the target there!
So the truth is...... Late at night is a good time for us to act, so that we don't have to go to the mouse!
It's just that when we brought those Soviet soldiers out, we frightened them......
"Comrade of the People's Liberation Army!" Eugenia asked me with a bloodless face, "Where are you taking us?" ”
I couldn't help but be stunned when I looked at the expressions of those Soviet soldiers, and then I understood when I looked at our battle...... Our convoy consisted of four armored vehicles and six side three-wheeled vehicles...... It makes sense that the four armored vehicles would be arranged so that the potential enemy would not know which armored vehicle the target was on, and the side three wheels were used for reconnaissance in front.
Such a battle is like escorting Soviet soldiers to the execution ground and then using these weapons and forces to prevent the enemy from robbing the execution ground...... It's no wonder that Eugenia and the others are so frightened that their lips are trembling.
"Don't worry!" I replied lightly: "Comrade Eugenia...... You should also know that you are stepping on Chinese soil, and if we really want to do it against you, we can do it at any time, there is no need to ...... at all."
As I spoke, I waved my hand at the armored vehicles and the side three wheels, and said, "What do you think...... Is it necessary to do this if we are going to shoot you? ”
"Oh!" Eugenya thought about it, so she nodded and said, "That's good...... I hope that the comrades of the People's Liberation Army will do what they say and not live up to our trust! ”
I couldn't help but feel amused...... Trust! Trust in the enemy on this battlefield? (To be continued......)
