Chapter 1324: Pressure
When Zhou Qingfeng returned to Guantanamo, the entire military base was completely blocked. www.biquge.info He not only left behind the mutant guards, but also asked the Air Force to bring in a team with experience in carrier-based aircraft to regain control of the airspace over Guantanamo, and used the Yun-5 to bring in a guard battalion composed entirely of compatriots.
It takes time for the ship to unload the containers, and after Zhou Qingfeng left the maintenance task, he and Caterina flew a small 'Cessna' plane back to Havana. During the flight, Hummon asked, "Victor, you seem to be a little uneasy about the people at Guantanamo." ”
'Cessna' flew fast in the sky, and the earth flew by in front of him. Zhou Qingfeng, who was in charge of driving, said coldly: "I have been busy with other things for nearly a year, and I have not paid attention to the 'Kennedy' aircraft carrier.
It is true that the legion has not given enough operational resources to the Guantanamo base in the past year, but it is absolutely dereliction of duty for an aircraft carrier to be overgrown with barnacles and shells on the dock. ”
Zhou Qingfeng, as a strong leader, is definitely a minority ruling the majority. It's normal for something to happen in such an extreme environment as the end times. He had used the Rectification Movement to clean up the Cuban forces in the legion, but now he was in even greater trouble.
The Chinese in the legion were just over 100,000, but the whites from the United States had already exceeded 500,000. And these people are still the backbone of the legion.
How to win people's hearts and suppress rebellion will test Zhou Qingfeng's commanding ability. There were thoughts and ideas that he couldn't even tell his closest allies. To say so is to expose the contradictions and rifts.
Zhou Qingfeng originally set up the Military Intelligence Bureau directly under himself to deal with this problem, but since the head of the Military Intelligence Agency, Alfred. After Marshall's return to the Enclave, the effectiveness of the MIA dropped significantly. He couldn't find anyone to take over the position of director of military intelligence.
"Sometimes a bitter foreign war is an effective way to eliminate internal contradictions." Thinking of this, Zhou Qingfeng made up his mind to have an unusual 'purity cleansing'. It's just that how to make the spearhead of society stop pointing at yourself at that time is a technical job.
'Cessna' stopped at Havana Airport, Caterina was anxious to show Miss Fox the wonders of the space-time gate she had photographed, and Zhou Qingfeng went to another transshipment ship to transport ten battalions of 'Hongqi-2'. The transfer of low-value items does not need to open the space-time door.
On the issue of who should be in control of the missile brigade, Zhou Qingfeng adhered to the concept of 'no need to suspect people, no suspicion in employing people', and directly pulled out Liu Meng, who had just arrived in Havana from Africa.
Although there were many rocket and missile experts in the legion who came from Florida at the beginning, he still felt that his compatriots were more comfortable using them. So the appointment was issued .......
"Me?" Liu Meng, who received the appointment, was completely confused, he had guessed that he would be reused by the army after he arrived in Havana. After all, similar examples are not uncommon, such as Chen Rui, who is now in charge of the Air Force, also from Angola in Africa. But ......, "I don't understand anything!" ”
"I can't help you." In the corps commander's office in the Capitol Building, Zhou Qingfeng swiped a few strokes to sign the letter of appointment, and handed it to the man in front of him who was less than thirty years old.
"The Home Office will give you a team of advisors, all experts from the Kennedy Space Center. The Ministry of Industry will also give you a group of skilled workers, talented people from Canada, Brazil or some other manufacturing industry. These people can help you with the task of modifying the missile.
I need you to get the missile brigade up and running in the shortest possible time, and I hope you can get it up and running in half a month. If you do it, you will stay. If you can't do it, you can go back to Africa. ”
Zhou Qingfeng did not want to hand over his meticulously equipped missile brigade to outsiders, because among the compatriots from Africa, they were either farming or engaged in infrastructure construction, and the only one who could play missiles was the big soldier in front of him, who had been retired for many years.
Seeing his own regiment commander staring at him with a serious face, Liu Meng, a Shandong man, suddenly felt a lot of pressure. He accepted the letter of appointment, saluted and walked out of his boss's office silently, with only the life-threatening deadline of 'half a month' in his mind.
"Isn't it a joke to form a missile brigade in half a month?" Liu Meng was still holding a USB flash drive sent by Zhou Qingfeng in his hand, and while he was waiting for the Ministry of the Interior to assign his subordinates, he hurriedly found a computer to check what tricks were in it.
"Ten battalions of 'Red Flag-2', with a total of 2,000 rounds of ammunition. Where exactly did this old antique come from? Liu Meng first looked at the asset list of his missile brigade, the most important of which was the old goods that claimed to come from the 'Cuban arsenal'.
Missile carriers, launch vehicles, radar vehicles, command vehicles, power supply vehicles, maintenance vehicles, fuel vehicles, a missile battalion has three launch companies, and the launch company is a basic combat unit with three launch platoons. There are more than 100 vehicles of all types, including cooking cars.
"It's quite well equipped." Liu Meng has not seen the specific missiles yet, but from the data, it can be seen that these ten missile battalions have basically been completely mechanized. "I don't know how these old antiques are maintained? Hopefully, they'll be usable for decades in storage. ”
After reading the information for half an hour, Liu Meng still lacked an intuitive understanding of the situation and difficulties he was facing. The Ministry of the Interior sent him an adviser and gave him a special introduction.
"This is Mr. Johnson, a rocket expert at NASA, a special adviser to the former US Department of Defense Missile Defense Agency, the designer of the 'Delta' 5 rocket, and a master scholar of fluid mechanics."
A series of titles stunned Liu Meng, and he quickly stood up and shook hands with the old man in front of him. The other party was very modest, and laughed at himself: "I'm just a useless old man now, I can't study rockets, I can't build missiles." ”
"Your knowledge will help us." Liu Meng was really not confident in getting a missile brigade in half a month, and seeing Mr. Johnson in front of him was like grasping a life-saving straw. "I must be honest and say that the task given to me by the Legion Commander will never be able to be accomplished by me alone."
Hahaha...... Advisor Johnson laughed a few times. He patted Liu Meng on the shoulder and said, "You are not the only one who feels that this matter is too difficult, and I also feel that it is difficult." But it's not just the two of us. ”
Next, people kept coming to report to Liu Meng, all of whom were elites who were drawn from various units of the legion on orders from the Ministry of the Interior. There are missile specialists, radar specialists, communications talents, modification masters, and retired officers.
Twenty or thirty people formed the leadership and management of the missile brigade, and Liu Meng, who was originally mediocre, became the brigade commander by virtue of the appointment of the corps commander. He could sense that some people were really here to help, while others were not convinced by their young selves.
"My God, form a missile brigade in half a month? This damn mission is going to cost me my life! ”
