Chapter 155: Protective Measures

The results of the multi-gun tests were, of course, satisfactory.

In fact, even if the results of the multi-artillery test are not satisfactory, it is enough to satisfy us, for the simple reason that we used to rely entirely on simple equipment such as telescopes to manually calculate the enemy's artillery position, but now we have an "artifact" such as an artillery aiming mine, which can accurately calculate the position of the enemy's artillery position in just 12 seconds...... This is a process for us to start from scratch, so even if the artillery sighting radar can only monitor one target at a time, it is enough to make our artillery ecstatic.

"Battalion commander!" Just when I was looking at the information at the battalion headquarters, Wu Dengxiong ran in and said: "Report to the battalion commander, this artillery sighting radar is really amazing, no matter where the cannon is fired, it can immediately report the accurate coordinates, and our twenty guns can't escape its eyes at the same time. Battalion commander, tell me something...... When are we going to go to war? ”

"What are you anxious about?!" I replied angrily: "I said Comrade Wu Dengxiong, I want to sue you, we only have two artillery sighting radars in our country, so you know what it means!" ”

"Yes!" Wu Dengxiong replied without thinking about it: "We were talking about it just now, this thing may be more expensive than the same weight of gold!" ”

"Just gold?" I glared at Wu Dengxiong fiercely: "You know, because this thing has such good performance, it means that it can reduce the losses of our army on the battlefield, so this is not a problem of gold, it is a problem of casualties and human lives of our troops, understand?" ”

"Understood!" Wu Dengxiong couldn't help but stand up.

"So......" I continued, "do you think this can be said so casually?" ”

"Yes!" Wu Dengxiong stepped forward and replied, "Battalion commander." I understand. We should indeed proceed with caution. Don't worry, I will do the ideological work of the soldiers, and unless you give the order, I promise that no one will mention the matter of going to the battlefield again! ”

"Hmm!" I nodded, and then explained: "Also, the fact that our army has an artillery sight radar is a military secret, and no one is allowed to leak any information to the outside world, and those who violate military law will be dealt with." Do you understand? ”

"Got it!"

I can understand that Wu Dengxiong and the soldiers of the artillery unit would be so anxious, but they have not been on the battlefield to fight against the Yue devils since they entered the synthetic battalion, and now they have such advanced equipment...... Anyone would want to go up and give the enemy a little color.

But I know that the more we get to this point, the more anxious we become, just like I just said, if there is a problem with the artillery sighting radar and there is no artillery sighting radar on the battlefield, then we will indirectly kill those soldiers who were killed by the Vietnamese artillery.

Therefore, I dare not be careless about the training of the Agent Company.

But as the training of the Agent Company progressed, I felt that something was wrong......

The wrong thing is that the set of tactics that Chen Weihua brought from the British army to protect the artillery sighting radar is too simple and too traditional for the special agent company, and after a few days of observation, it is nothing more than the detachment to reconnoiter in front, follow cover when maneuvering, choose positions, camouflage and build fortifications, etc., these are all things that ordinary troops can do, and they are a bit overkill for the special agent company.

So I immediately found Zhao Jingping, Chen Weihua and other cadres for a short meeting.

"That's how the British used these tactics to protect the artillery sight radar?" I asked Chen Weihua.

"Of course!" Chen Weihua was a little puzzled by my question: "The battalion commander thinks these tactics are ...... Is there a problem? ”

I didn't answer, but turned directly to Zhao Jingping and said, "I think these protection methods are too passive. What do you think? ”

"I feel that way too!" Zhao Jingping nodded and said, "Especially this artillery sight radar is still a relatively expensive thing, once it is discovered by the enemy...... They simply don't need to break through our fortifications. It is only necessary to direct artillery fire at the right time to cover the location of the artillery sight radar, and even a few mortars need to be erected to achieve the goal of blowing up the artillery sighting radar! ”

"Oh!" Hearing this, Chen Weihua couldn't help but nod approvingly.

"Why didn't the British take this into account?" Zhao Jingping asked Chen Weihua with doubts.

"This ......" Chen Weihua replied after thinking about it: "I think this may be because the British army has a large number of artillery sighting radars, and there is no need for such a focus on protection as ours!" ”

"Hmm!" Hearing this, I couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Chen Weihua This is to the point, I learned from him that the British army began to be equipped with this kind of artillery sighting radar as early as 73 years, and it can even be said that the artillery sighting radar sold to us now is about to be eliminated...... There are three models of gun-sighting radars for the British army's own use, namely MK1, MK2 and MK3.

Among them, MK1 is a towed type, MK2 is self-propelled, that is, directly mounted on the car, MK3 is an improved type, with a longer control distance, faster speed and more control and measurement targets.

Of course, the MK3 was not equipped with the British army at this time, but it can also be known that the British army must have a lot of artillery sighting radars.

As a result, it was not necessary or possible for the British army to carry out key protection for every artillery sighting radar...... There are too many artillery sight radars, and if they are damaged, they can replace them with a replacement one and then continue to produce it in the factory, and it is precisely because of the large number that if each radar is focused on protection...... Then the British Army will not do anything, just protect the radar.

But we are different, we only have two planes in the country, one will be left for the military industry to disassemble and study, and the other will not even be replaced if it is blown up on the battlefield.

So obviously, our protection of artillery sighting radar cannot be so simple.

After thinking about it, I said, "I think we should replace the Agent Company!" ”

"What?" Hearing this, Scar was a little unconvinced: "Battalion commander, replace us?" Such an important thing, which other army but us would dare to protect! ”

"Don't worry!" I motioned for Scar to sit down, and then continued: "The characteristics of the agent company are that they are more suitable for mobile combat, that is, they can fight quickly and withdraw quickly to pull out hard nails in the shortest time. If they are allowed to directly protect the artillery sighting radar, they will obviously be tied hand and foot and unable to play their due role! ”

"Hmm!" Although Scar's face was still a little reluctant, he had to nod slightly.

"What does the battalion commander mean......" Zhao Jingping heard my voice: "We want to divide this protection work into two parts?" ”

"Yes!" I nodded, "One part is indirect protection, and this is the responsibility of the Agents Company and the Sniper Company. ”

As I spoke, I turned my gaze to Scar and Company Commander Luo: "Your task is to cooperate with each other, use helicopters to expand the reconnaissance range as much as possible, and once you find a suspicious target, you must do your best to verify and deal with it." Questions? ”

"No problem!" Scar and Company Commander Luo replied in unison.

Of course, this is not a problem, they usually train like this, especially the sniper company...... Several helicopters with dozens of snipers lurked down on various heights and key points at the fastest speed to monitor the outlying areas, that is, turning light into darkness and passive into active.

"The other part is direct protection." I continued: "Needless to say, this work can be trained just like the British army." Of course, we will also assign several groups of snipers to cooperate with their work. This task...... Let the tactical company take the role! ”

"What?" Hearing this, the scholar who wanted to sleep while listening to it couldn't help but be stunned: "Battalion commander, what did you just say?" Let...... Let's get the tactics on the line? ”

"What? Questions? ”

"No, no...... How could it! The reader replied with some excitement: "I thought that this task would definitely not be our turn." Battalion commander, our tactical company has been on this cold bench for long enough, and we finally have a mission! ”

"Go and go......" Zhao Jingping replied angrily: "What do you mean to be arrested?" You think this is a captive?! ”

With a "coax", the soldiers in the conference room couldn't help laughing.

In fact, what the reader said is also true, because the vast majority of the tactical company are military cadets and do not have much actual combat experience, they are also like artillery in the synthetic battalion, and most of the time they spend training and exercises in the base. It can even be said that their training is a little performative.

So I explained to the reader: "You must remember that this task is not trivial, and the tactical company lacks actual combat experience, so you veterans and backbones must do a good job in the ideological work of the soldiers, so that they can be psychologically prepared for battle, understand?" ”

"Understood!" The reader responded excitedly.

"Also...... After thinking about it, I added: "Most of your tactical companies are military cadets, and a considerable number of people have a certain cultural foundation, and you can also learn how to operate or maintain it from a few more consultants when protecting the artillery sighting radar!" ”

"Yes!" The reader answered with a mouthful of words.

In fact, this is one of the reasons why I chose the Tactical Company for this task...... You must know that anything can happen on the battlefield, and if something happens to Chen Weihua's advisers and maintenance personnel, then operating the artillery sighting radar will become a big problem.

Later, I learned that this actually didn't require my heart at all, because it didn't take long for Commander Zhang to send a squad of radar soldiers down to learn how to operate with Chen Weihua and others...... Chen Weihua and the others are just military advisers, and they will have to return to Britain one day, and before they leave, of course, they will have to train a group of people who can use and maintain artillery sighting radar. (To be continued......)
