Chapter 5: Chaotic D-Day (3)
Under the command of Zhao Yi, ammunition and other military supplies were prioritized and moved out of the green paint area. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Dome light curtain, teleportation between various battle scenes...... After seeing the various black technologies of the "props group", Zhao Yi had to be cautious about the place where the "director team" ordered the materials to be received - the green paint area.
In the future, whether it is to fight with the natives of this plane, or to be able to take refuge in the great PLA as he wishes, it is a good reliance to receive the materials of the "prop group" in this green paint area.
Although he didn't understand the principle of this kind of black technology of teleporting back and forth, Zhao Yi felt that it was safer for flammable and explosive products to stay away from the green paint area.
Walking out of the hangar, Zhao Yi drove a Humvee and carried 2 M2HBFlexible heavy machine guns (infantry version), 2 M249 light machine guns, and 2 M240 medium machine guns to the various machine gun positions that had been built.
The "props team" provided more than 4 million rounds of ammunition of various calibers, and there were more than 1,000 rounds of tank artillery shells and mortar shells. In addition to the machine guns carried by the traverser and the vehicles during the crossing, 12 machine guns were also found in the hangar.
It's just that the "director team" is rather pitiful, and the strength of a battalion to defend this base is a bit stretched. What's even more infuriating is that almost half of the traversers can't be contacted until now.
The entire base is very open, and the ground should have been leveled by the "props group" with black technology and high energy. The two-kilometer-long ground to the north and south and east of the base is devoid of any vegetation, and the ground is as smooth as if it has been cleaned up by an iron, and the original landscape is completely invisible. Only the south, the direction facing the sea, retains a hilly landscape.
Maybe the south side is the open side of the net of the "props group", otherwise, Zhao Yi suspects that the warships can use optical observation instruments to directly fire the base on the south side.
Limited by the lack of troops, Zhao Yi chose to shrink the defense line when the situation of the enemy and us was unclear. As far as possible to minimize the gap between the various defensive battlefields, he had to take into account the situation in which the enemy would carry out tactical penetration.
In the unlikely event that they are infiltrated by enemy forces, the security of the Green Paint Zone, which is at the heart of the base, will be in jeopardy. However, the contraction of the defensive line exposed nearly one-third of the base's 500-meter-long concrete airstrip to the outside of the defensive line.
Such a position setting brings great risks to the take-off and landing of aircraft. The two pilots lodged a "most solemn protest" against this, but Zhao Yi had no choice but to ignore it. Just kidding, to meet their requirements, their defensive line is immediately filled with gaps and joints of various defenses, bringing a lot of space and convenience to the enemy's infiltration tactics.
Zhao Yi drove a Humvee to the machine gun position north of the base, and while the soldiers were unloading machine guns and ammunition, he got out of the car and walked into the position to check. This is the most important fire support point to the north of the base, and there is no room for error.
The quality of the soldiers' earthwork exceeded his expectations, after all, no one joked with their lives. When the enemy attacks, the fire support point must be the focus of the enemy's heavy fire attack, and the fortifications here can not be faked at all.
Not far away, Hu Dazhuang and the others were digging gun emplacements for tanks. Fortifications are being built everywhere on the base, and there is no shortage of construction machines. Hu Dazhuang: They pulled out a bulldozer shovel from the tank parts in the green paint area. After loading the tank, this M1A2 instantly became the most powerful bulldozer in the base, after all, no one can compare with the 1500 hp gas turbine.
Yu Yun drove the tank and pushed out a dirt pit with a bulldozer shovel. The depth of the pit was just below the body of the M1A2 Abrams main battle tank, and the tank that drove into the pit only exposed the turret, hiding the weakly armored body in the pit.
Hu Dazhuang was shirtless and used a shovel to smooth out the excessively high soil on the edge of the flat running position, so that the tank's 120-mm main gun could get the best firing range.
Hu Dazhuang's share of the heavy work of the car crew is always indispensable, and he never complains, and single-celled people like him will not feel that others take advantage of him. He liked that the other three men in the crew had instructed him to do this and that, and that his grandfather had called him that before he died. He was willing to let them call him, because they were the only ones who would give him cigarettes, only they would huddle with him to keep warm when it was cold, and only they would give them to him who was not enough to eat, on the pretext that the individual rations were too unpalatable.
Yu Yun and Li Yang covered the gun emplacements with camouflage nets, and a dark artillery emplacement was constructed. They have built these gun emplacements in all four directions of the base, so that if support is needed anywhere, the tanks can quickly maneuver to the gun emplacements to provide heavy fire support.
Zhao Yi put his curly index finger in his mouth and whistled at Hu Dazhuang and them. After looking around and seeing that everyone else was busy with their earthwork, he quietly stuffed Hu Dazhuang with two cans wrapped in his mask.
"I'm in the green paint area, I didn't take a closer look when I took it, and I don't know what kind of canned food it is, you will add a meal in a while, and the individual rations for one person are usually not full, not to mention that I have done so much heavy work today." Zhao Yi whispered to them.
"I will hide in the car and eat for a while, don't let people see it, the impact is not good. The hangar gave priority to the inventory and transfer of ammunition and medicines, and there was not enough manpower. It is estimated that there will be no manpower to distribute food during the day today. Everyone has to nibble on the individual rations they brought, so don't gossip about me. Zhao Yi advised.
After explaining, Zhao Yi jumped into the Humvee. He was also sending another six machine guns and ammunition to other machine gun emplacements and checking the progress of the fortifications there. After the 12 light and heavy machine guns in the green paint area were delivered, the machine gun emplacements and infantry vehicles in the various gun emplacements were able to form crossfire in all directions of the base. The only tank at the base maneuvered across the various lines of defense, providing powerful direct-fire heavy fire support.
Two mortar positions are being built at the base, an 81-mm M29 mortar and a 120-mm M120 mortar are gaining momentum.
Zhao Yi felt that as long as they did not encounter an enemy with strong air support and large-caliber naval artillery support, they should be able to hold out until the "director team" was preset at D+15 support.
At this time, a call came from the walkie-talkie hanging on Zhao Yi's right shoulder.
"Sir, we've just made contact with 2 platoons of 70 Rangers, ETA45minutes (EstimatedTimeofArrival, meaning expected to arrive in 45 minutes)."
Finally, there was some good news, and Zhao Yi breathed a sigh of relief. The strength of 2 platoons can at least speed up the construction of fortifications. If the planned workload can be completed before dark, the soldiers can get a good rest. He knew that these soldiers were trained according to the standards of the US military, but not according to the standards of the PLA, which is known for its hardships and hard work. Working overtime overnight to repair fortifications is definitely a morale-busting thing.
After completing the delivery of machine gun ammunition and checking the progress of the fortifications, Zhao Yi took another turn around the defensive line on the periphery of the base to ensure that the soldiers on the front line could see him. Try to talk to these soldiers, no need for more sensational words, just simple conversations. Maybe it's to tell them about the progress of the inventory of the warehouse over there, or the progress of the fortifications of another company on the other side of the base, or even to tell them that you hate the weird-smelling chewing gum in your individual rations; It is also possible to say nothing and let the soldiers whine.
This is very important, an officer who is not often seen by soldiers, will not have any prestige among them. The negative textbook that the officials are most familiar with may be the short-lived company commander in "Band of Brothers", when E Company was besieged in Bastogne. Aside from his command ability, his style of missing the head and tail of the dragon often became the condiment for the soldiers of E Company to complain.
Zhao Yi is not a military fan, and he hasn't even finished watching the classic American drama in its entirety, so he doesn't know the negative textbook Lieutenant Dyck, nor does he know the officer model Lieutenant Winters.
However, during training and fighting with the clones of the "American Army", he observed that the clones who played the role of officers would always appear in front of them from time to time. When resting, when maintaining the tank, and when reloading the tank, the officer will always have the opportunity to say a few words to the soldier.
Although, under the influence of the implantation procedure, the officers' conversations always come and go, and the jokes are also a few bad stalks. Even Hu Dazhuang can memorize those lines in English. However, Zhao Yi knew that those programs that were implanted into the brains of clones were definitely highly imitating the behavior of real U.S. military officers.
So, Zhao Yi came to a cottage, but changed the content of the conversation.
After doing this, the time should be noon, guessing according to the sun in the sky. Zhao Yi returned to the headquarters, and the headquarters at this time was not the temporary command center a few hours ago. A large tent surrounded by an explosion-proof wall, the communications corps has set up the antenna and transferred it from the Stryker communication command armored vehicle to work inside.
The communication platoon is not full, and the chief officer is a female second lieutenant named Ma Xiaoyi. It was the owner of the female voice who talked to Zhao Yi on the radio after crossing over. Five people in the headquarters were operating the radio and continuing to call uncontacted traversers, while the rest of the communications corps were assigned to assist in the inventory and removal of supplies in the green paint area.
Zhao Yi had just entered the tent, and before he could stand still, the radio came the response of the traverser, a five-person Navy SEAL team. Soon another seven-member S.W.A.T tactical team responded to the call.
S.W.A.T stands for "Special Weapons and Tactics". A special anti-violence and anti-terrorism law enforcement unit with advanced technology and tactical means. It is a military and police special service armed system with CQB tactics as the tactical core. The chaotic incursion of the "director team" made Zhao Yi at a loss, what the hell is it to put a S.W.A.T tactical team in a heavy equipment infantry battalion?
Zhao Yi had the worst malicious guess that the "director team" was simply a battalion of 365 people, so there was such an establishment. However, in the near future, he will find out that he underestimated the lower limit of the "director's group".
As soon as I came in, two groups responded to the call, and Zhao Yi was secretly happy, he really had the aura of the protagonist, and he had a lucky buff.
This is, the radio station has a new signal again.
"This is a mountain detachment, we have two platoons with a total of 60 people......"
Before the voice could finish its briefing, gunshots rang out over the radio.
"Da Da." The sound of M4 carbine gunfire over the radio. It should have been the people of the mountain detachment who opened fire first.
"Bang, bang, bang" This should be the gunfire of the other side returning fire, it is very dense, but it can still be heard as a single burst. It was an unfamiliar gunfire from Zhao Yi, and he couldn't tell what weapon the other party was using.
“Contact! (Attacked Ahead)"
“Dropback! (Backward)"
"Mandown!
“Medic! (Medic)"
For a while, there was shouting on the radio. Apparently the two sides collided head-on. Judging by the M4's burst shots, the two sides were very close. At distances greater than 100 meters, the M4 of the Mi Army adopts a short point shot, rather than this kind of continuous fire to suppress the opponent.
"Mountain detachment, gather to the battle situation, report the battle situation." Zhao Yi took the microphone.
"We met a group of Japanese cavalry, and they charged at us."
"Are you sure it's the Japanese army?" Zhao Yi asked.
"They are flying the flag of the sun."
Japanese, cavalry? Zhao Yi's heart sank, was the difficulty the worst case he guessed? During World War II, the Japanese army had a lot of cavalry in northern China.
The mountain detachment did encounter the Japanese cavalry, but it was not the Japanese army that Zhao Yi imagined.
