What to some may seem like a child's joke was announced that the live-action exercise ended before the troops of the two sides met and before the process actually began.

As soon as the 1st Marine Division set foot on the land of the Rihe Base, the Red Army Brigade had already been cut by its sharp blade. And Zheng Guangguo of the Red Army Brigade was not so much defeated by Li Mu as he was scared to death by Li Mu.

Putting aside other factors, purely from the point of view of the tactics of both sides, the defeat of the Red Army Brigade appeared as early as when the two sides began to move. Zheng Guangguo used the exercise thinking to meet Li Mu, who had rich experience in war command, which was undoubtedly playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong. Not to mention that many of the 1st Marine Division led by Li Mu had just returned from Africa, and those who had not gone to Africa had also been taught the experience of the special operations regiment.

Speaking of the roots, from the level of operational thinking, the two sides are no longer opponents of the same magnitude.

Of course, the real reason that made the end of this exercise seem sloppy is unknown to many, including Zheng Guangguo. He could only assume that the 1st Marine Division had received some urgent order to return to the station, and at his level, he was not qualified to touch the real cause.

The 1st Marine Division withdrew very quickly, and with the full support of the military transportation department, all the units of the 1st Marine Division withdrew to the Lunan area where they were stationed within one day according to today's transportation standards. Along the way, Li Mu thought a lot, and he was also thinking about countermeasures. Such a thing is not something that cannot be taken lightly. And the question that has always existed in the minds of most officers and soldiers is why the Red Army Brigade, which is coaxed by cowhides, is so unbeaten, and only then does it start to punch out, and it actually lies down?

As a result, many officers and men of the 1st Marine Division had an intuitive impression that such a good Red Army brigade could not complete three moves under our 1st Marine Division, let alone other units.

As soon as Li Mu returned to the Lunan area, his old father-in-law, Feng Lao, came to the phone, and hung up the phone after a few brief words around that matter. Despite this, it has also made Li Mu feel a lot of pressure. His unintentional actions would probably cause more trouble than any of his previous battlefield disobedience.

This time it's terrible, such disobedience is still going to happen.

After three days of thinking, Li Mu submitted an application for transfer to the Navy Headquarters, and he applied for a transfer to the academy. This is already the most suitable choice he can think of, and take the initiative to take a posture.

Before making this decision, Li Mu and Du Xiaofan drank once. The Naval Branch of the General Administration of Counterintelligence is stationed at the Marine Corps Joint Operations Center, half an hour away from the headquarters of the 1st Marine Division. In fact, on the night of Li Mu's return, he had a deep conversation with Du Xiaofan.

Li Mu is now surrounded by only Du Xiaofan, an old comrade-in-arms, who can ask for advice.

Back then, he was the acting squad leader of the fifth squad, and Du Xiaofan was the squad leader of the seventh squad, and the two were sworn enemies in the company, and they always worked against each other. It wasn't until the period of the Hunter Commando that Du Xiaofan gradually evolved into Li Mu's loyal subordinate, and after Du Xiaofan chose to transfer to the intelligence system, he was able to break away from Li Mu's wings to a certain extent.

Moreover, Du Xiaofan's counter-intelligence department is the most important and most valued unit among so many intelligence agencies, and generally speaking, his level can only have access to information that higher-level cadres have access to, which brings that his vision will be broader.

When Li Mu encounters such a thing, all he can think of is to listen to Du Xiaofan's opinion.

When Li Mu explained the matter, Du Xiaofan shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "Lao Li, you are in your thirties, you are a regular army division commander, you are no longer a small regiment commander and a small company commander, how can you make such a low-level mistake? Your deputies also eat dry food, they should remind you to pay attention to these taboos." ”

Li Mu said with a wry smile, "I knew that something happened to the political committee, and it turned out to be a real accident." When Wen Chaoyang was there, such a low-level mistake could not have happened at all. ”

"Since things are already like this, it's useless to think about it so much, so let's think about how to remedy it. Du Xiaofan said contemplatively, "No matter what was planned in the original plan to arrange your new position, you can't have military power in your hands." ”

"It's not so serious, is it? It was an unintentional move, and it was originally a real confrontation exercise, and all kinds of standards of the troops were completely in line with the regulations. Li Mu frowned.

Du Xiaofan sneered, "It seems that you still don't really realize the seriousness of the problem. ”

Li Mu spread his hands, "I don't think that such a small division commander deserves so much attention from so many big leaders." ”

"You're underestimating yourself. ”

Du Xiaofan sneered and said, "You Li Mu is so awesome, the most capable of fighting in the whole army, several times the commanders of all the ground forces of the navy, land and air force, and picking out ten or eight of them together can't book you one." From the Northwest to East Africa to Syria, I'm afraid you can't count how many battles you've fought back and forth, right? Think about it, in the past ten or eight years, what year have you not been fighting, you have been used to it, but others are not used to it, many people are looking forward to a real firefight for twenty or thirty years, you have never stopped. ”

After a pause, he took a puff of his cigarette and said, "You are used to fighting naturally, but have you thought about it, the combat effectiveness you have shown, what I am talking about is the combat effectiveness of the troops you lead, what kind of deterrent it is for some people." You dare to lose contact for ten hours, I really don't know when your heart became so big. ”

Li Mu looked at Du Xiaofan and said, "Old Du, are you praising me or hurting me, I don't sound like anything." ”

"You still have the heart to care about this. Du Xiaofan shook his head helplessly, "To put it simply, you always understand what it means to be a master of high merit, right?"

Li Mu was taken aback, ", don't scare me." Isn't Lao Tzu just a little teacher?"

"But you're only in your thirties. Du Xiaofan looked at Li Mu meaningfully.

Li Mu stopped speaking for a while.

"Originally, you walked on the edge of a knife, and if you were light, you would fall, and if you were heavy, you would cut your feet. Think about how hard you've struggled to get this way. Suppress and suppress, don't say wait for others to do it, your own people will suppress you first. It's not that I'm afraid that you will become the target of public criticism too quickly. In such a situation, you still make such a low-level mistake...... You are really ......" Du Xiaofan still felt incomprehensible, he really didn't expect Li Mu to make such a mistake.

Li Mu's obsession with the study of combat tactics is too serious, or his battlefield thinking is very serious, and he regards exercises and drills as war, which is not necessarily a good thing.

Say a thousand things and ten thousand, after all, you live in a non-war era.

Li Mu stared at Du Xiaofan and asked solemnly, "Old Du, tell me the truth, how serious is the matter?"

He knew that Du Xiaofan was able to access some core information, and the particularity of the anti-espionage summary lay in this.

Du Xiaofan sighed slightly and said, "The garrison has entered a state of combat readiness, the troops below the combat plan, and the logistics support system has been activated. ”

Hearing this, Li Mu gasped.

Du Xiaofan said, "When I learned the news, I still felt strange, the garrison said it was an annual drill plan, but I always felt that it was not right. Now I kind of know what's going on, it's because of you. ”

"What the hell is this......" Li Mu's heart was completely cold.
