Chapter 1423 Plateau Transport Corps
Because the team is changed from the rear team to the front team and takes a detour, the training team members have no way of knowing the road map of the team, so naturally they can't set a trap in advance.
After three or four hours on the way, the convoy was safe, and the officers and men of the first battalion were able to sleep comfortably and recover some of their spirits.
After Meng Chuan made a basket of pancakes, he saw that it was almost lunchtime, so he contacted the command of the first battalion, "Commander of the first battalion, do you want to find a place for the soldiers to eat first?" ”
The commander of the first battalion heard that Meng Chuan still had leisure to eat, although he could understand Meng Chuan's intention, which was to let the soldiers have a good rest, but after thinking for a while, he still raised an objection, "Director Meng, we have wasted a whole morning on the detour, I don't think we will stop to eat, let the soldiers nibble on some dry food, and they will eat when they camp in the evening." ”
Meng Chuan waved his hand and said: "First battalion commander, even if our convoy is slow and takes a long detour, the progress will be faster than those training team members on foot, so you can relax and let the soldiers have a good lunch." ”
"Besides, the soldiers slept well this morning, but the drivers who drove were lacking, our fleet was several kilometers long, and any car that had a problem would affect the overall progress, in my opinion, it would be good for the drivers to take a two-hour lunch break."
The commander of the first battalion actually considered the situation of the driver, in fact, according to the ordinary road driving regulations, driving for more than four hours in a row is fatigue driving.
Some people will say that this is a regulation for civilian cars, in fact, military vehicles are also this regulation, generally few drivers do not stop to rest after driving for four hours in a row, even if the military is powerful, it is also a person, and it will still be tired after driving for a long time.
However, the perseverance of the soldiers is still relatively strong after all, and in the case of the plateau transport regiment, it is not uncommon for the people inside to drive for more than ten hours without stopping the fire.
What is even more coincidental is that this time, the towing team responsible for transporting combat vehicles included several veteran drivers of the plateau transport regiment.
With such an excellent driver, the first battalion commander thought about making some coffee and strong tea for the drivers to refresh themselves, and it should be no problem to insist on camping at night.
After all, for these veterans, they often have excellent results in completing 1,400 kilometers of transportation in two days.
At this time, some people will wonder, 1400 kilometers in two days? Let someone do it, and you can do it for more than ten hours, which shouldn't be difficult.
But this is not the case at all, because driving on the plateau is far from being as flat as you are driving on the highway, and there are many sections of the plateau that are full of cliffs, and if you are not careful, you will be crushed.
If nothing else, let's just say that on the Xinzang line, there are collisions and scrapped cars everywhere on the side of the national highway, and when you see the broken car body and the nearby rugged road, you will know what the concept of 1,400 kilometers in two days is.
On those roads, if you can average 60 yards without an accident, it means that you are very skilled.
As for the usual perception that you can run a speed of one hundred and twenty yards on the highway, on those roads, it is absolutely delusional.
If you don't have more than 30 hours of concentration on this 1,400 highway, you don't even want to finish it, and if you get the slightest distraction along the way, you will probably be crushed.
And this time the run was almost all on a flat highway, so the first battalion commander was very confident in these trailer drivers.
But considering Meng Chuan's style of doing things, although he was very idle in the training confrontation, after these battles, Tepei had almost no losses and made great gains.
And his own troops were lost by more than half, so he didn't dare not be humble, since Meng Chuan made this suggestion, he still agreed to come down, study and study first.
"Okay, you are the commander of the team, you give orders, I will definitely obey."
Meng Chuan smiled when he heard this.
Since the beginning of the training, Meng Chuan has not given orders to the first battalion of troops, this is not that Meng Chuan is high, but that Meng Chuan is not used to the soldiers of the first battalion at all.
Although the soldiers of your first battalion are very powerful, no matter how powerful you are, it is just an ordinary battalion, even if it is the main battalion of the special operations brigade, if it is taken out and placed on any unit, it is a well-known main battalion, but in the final analysis, it is just a battalion after all.
And each member of the training team is an elite elite selected from the whole army, and any soldier in it can be called the king of soldiers if he is placed in a regiment-level establishment.
Therefore, in terms of the quality of individual soldiers, the soldiers of the first battalion cannot be compared with the members of the training team.
What's more, these soldiers have also received a month of special training, and the overall quality and coordination are very suitable, and that battalion can't fight.
Besides, more than half of the first battalion was lost, and if it was forced to attack in wartime, the soldiers might have mutinied, and if the emotions in the hearts of the soldiers were not appeased at this time, the battle behind would definitely not be able to be fought.
"Okay, then I'll give the order as a commander. All troops were ordered to pull over and repair nearby, and special training instructors patrolled in groups and directed traffic. ”
Once the order was issued, the obedience of the soldiers was immediately reflected, although the combat effectiveness of the first battalion could not be compared with the special training instructors, but the discipline was still quite good, after the convoy slowly pulled to the side, all the soldiers got off the car to rest, there was almost no noisy communication, as if the rest time should be quiet.
Meng Chuan also got out of the cooking car at this time, and asked the little fat man to distribute pancakes to the special training instructors.
At this time, the first battalion commander also trotted over, and when he saw a large basket of pancakes, he was stunned, "Director Meng, have you really been making pancakes in the cooking car all morning?" ”
Meng Chuan nodded, "Then what's not?" Can I still sleep in the cooking car? ”
As he spoke, he handed a large piece of pancake to the battalion commander, "Come on, taste it, it's hard for you to withstand such a lot of pressure." ”
The battalion commander smelled the fragrance of the pancakes, and the annoying thoughts in his mind were immediately squeezed out, and he immediately rolled them up and took a bite.
Soon the first battalion commander finished eating a whole pancake, and after eating, he really had a lot less thoughts. There was also joy on his face, "Director Meng, I didn't expect that your big cake could make people feel relaxed." ”
Meng Chuan smiled, "If you want to make the soldiers happy, the best way is to let them eat, when the blood is flowing into the stomach, there will be less things to think about in their minds." If you want me to say, don't hide it, take out the dozens of pork fans in the refrigerated truck, and make a braised pork fiercely, so that the soldiers can eat it refreshed. Then there was a battle going on, and the enthusiasm of the fighters came. ”
