Chapter 233: Third Echelon
"What nonsense? If the insurance is not opened, how can it explode? Right? Heads? ”
Xu Mo scolded Miao Tiantian dissatisfiedly, and then asked Tan Yu.
The corners of Tan Yu's eyes twitched again, and he said kindly: "If you don't take the initiative to use it, you won't blow it up, but for the sake of safety, let's take off the combat uniform first, and then change it when we get to the ball country." ”
"Yes!"
Xu Mo responded and changed his combat uniform.
There was a loud roar of the plane's engines, and the airport road outside the window receded rapidly, before being replaced by a blue sky.
After Tan Yu briefly introduced the echelon distribution and some precautions for this special operations operation, he returned to the sand table and started a new round of deduction with the other two generals.
The map of the sand table is the rainforest of the ball country, with the flags of many countries and the imaginary firepower configuration planted on it.
Xu Mo was not interested in these, so he had to sit aside and wait silently.
The three students were also not interested in the sand table, and sat next to him without saying a word.
The first echelon has its own mission, and doing its own thing is the most important thing.
When I arrived at Qiuguo International Airport, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
Xu Mo got off the plane and found that the airport had changed again.
There are still a lot of planes at the airport, but most of them are military planes, and ordinary passenger planes are basically invisible.
In addition to transport aircraft, there are also quite a few bomb-mounted fighters, most of which are foreign.
He saw three of Huaxia's advanced fighters alone.
From this point of view, the country has completely opened up its airspace.
The command post of this Huaxia special operations operation is on this plane, so the members of the first echelon need to rush to the front line on their own, and the combat uniforms and selected equipment will be delivered before the start of the mission.
As for the specific location, naturally someone will pick it up.
So when Xu Mo and the others left the airport, they saw the person in charge of the pick-up.
Xu Mo never expected that the person who came was actually Mai Anyong, a member of the previous group.
"Ink group! Ink group! Here! ”
Mai Anyong saw him from a distance and waved his hand excitedly.
"An Yong, why are you here?"
Xu Mo walked over, very surprised.
If he remembered correctly, all the team members had already returned to Huaxia and accepted the assignment.
Mai Anyong didn't speak, and mysteriously took out an armband from his arms and lit it up.
The armband is embroidered with three small golden peonies, and there is no other decoration.
"Third echelon!?"
Xu Mo recognized the meaning of this epaulette at a glance and was taken aback.
The epaulettes of the first to third echelons are represented by the number of peonies, and there is a golden peony on the combat uniform he tried on.
"There are too many people who snatch it, and in order to get it, I even wear out my mouth, so I almost cry, make trouble and hang myself."
Mai Anyong's face was full of pride, and he carefully put the armband into his arms as a treasure.
Xu Mo's nose was a little sour, others didn't know the meaning of the third echelon, but he knew it too well.
The third echelon is a regular combat squad, with the largest number of people, but the word conventional dooms them to only perform ordinary tasks.
But even the most ordinary task is that when it comes to modifying creatures, it will no longer be ordinary, and it is the most dangerous mission.
It's good that the things in the barrier come out, at least you can take advantage of the vast territory of the ball country to fight in a roundabout way, and there is a chance to retreat.
But if the things in the barrier don't come out, or come out late, then the three echelons need to rush into the barrier to complete the task.
Their tasks are diverse, mainly auxiliary, and if they enter the barrier, they are responsible for surveying the terrain and assisting in mapping the terrain within the barrier.
In addition to this, they are tasked with spotting enemies, marking danger points, and passing on overview data if they are able to encounter modified creatures.
In short, everything they do is to pave the way for the second and first echelons.
Therefore, as soon as the third echelon was established, it had many aliases in the troops.
Such as the Sharp Knife Team, the Attack Team, the Scout Team, and even. Cannon fodder!
For a cannon fodder spot, I am afraid that only the children of Huaxia can come out in the world.
Xu Mo felt a little panicked in his heart, and after following Mai Anyong into the special car, he pretended to be relaxed and asked, "What about the other team members." ”
"Most of them are still in the country."
Mai Anyong started the car and said without looking back.
Xu Mo's heart twitched again, and he asked in a low voice, "So there are still team members here?" ”
"Yes, just Yi Youyi, that kid has worked as a flamethrower before, and when he signed up, he directly grabbed his comrade's flamethrower barrel, not to mention, it really let him get into the second echelon."
Mai Anyong's tone was very sour, with a look of envy, jealousy and hatred.
Xu Mo smiled bitterly and became even more silent.
If the third echelon is to pave the way for the second echelon and the first echelon, then the second echelon is to help the first echelon improve the road conditions.
Their task is mainly to clear the obstacles that cannot be solved by the third echelon, and they are in a complementary relationship.
To put it bluntly, both the third echelon and the second echelon are to clear the obstacles for the first echelon, but the order of operations is one after the other.
Xu Mo was silent for a long time, and continued to ask, "Is there anything else?" ”
"No, the number of members of the echelon combat team is limited, and the selection is too strict, it's good that our group can choose two, the ink group, you can't be too greedy!"
Mai Anyong felt a little regretful, but comforted Xu Mo.
cupidity
Xu Mo rarely hopes that he is not greedy once, but even if there are no team members, there will be other hot-blooded men who will actively participate.
They are all the same, they will use their bodies to build the Great Wall of flesh and blood.
The vehicle jolted all the way to a village thirty miles from the center of the barrier.
Unlike the previous camp, this village is full of tents in army green.
At the entrance of the village, the bright red flag of China flutters in the wind, marking the ownership of this land.
"This is an exclusive camp in Huaxia, and there will be no other countries coming to make trouble."
Mai Anyong introduced a sentence and pushed the door open.
"Who dares to make trouble?"
After Xu Mo got out of the car, he saw several tanks and armored vehicles parked in the camp, as well as neatly arranged large-caliber self-propelled guns.
In addition, there were also a large number of Chinese soldiers in camouflage uniforms in the camp, all of whom were heavily armed with loaded guns.
What is the difference between making trouble and dying?
"Mo Group, your accommodation has been arranged, I'll take you there."
Mai Anyong introduced Xu Mo into the camp and took them through the green military flowers.
The soldiers they met on the way all looked at them curiously, their eyes full of envy.
"See? The ones that kid brought over were the first echelon people. ”
"The leader is so familiar, I think I've seen it somewhere."
"Are you training stupid? That's Xu Mo, the people in the rivers and lakes call Mo Ye! ”
"Oh oh oh, yes! I said why is it so familiar, it turned out to be the ruthless man who slaughtered wolves, killed bears and threw lions, no wonder he could enter the first echelon. ”
"What's the point of killing those ordinary beasts? The first time they came to the country, they killed a transformation snake with their bare hands. "It's awesome! But the three people behind him are very eye-catching, have you seen them? ”
"I haven't seen it, but if you can enter the first echelon, you don't have to think that they are all capable people, we only have envy."
"That being said, there is actually a girl in it, which makes us a group of old men embarrassed."
"Haven't you ever heard that women don't let their eyebrows go? Let's just do a good job of logistics support for them. ”“.”
Xu Mo listened to these discussions all the way, and suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
Now he understands how heavy the burden is on the shoulders of the first echelon, because this entire camp operates around the first echelon.
The three trainees also realized this and felt even more breathless.
Although they have undergone special training from the troops, after all, they have not experienced actual combat, and in addition, they are not very old, so it is impossible not to be nervous.
Xu Mo is an old bird no matter what he says, the pressure is there, but the tension is not enough.
After Mai Anyong took them to his tent, he went back to his life.
The tents for four people are next to each other, and the living facilities are readily available.
Xu Mo suddenly became idle, with nothing to do.
"Report!"
Not long after being idle, there was a neutral report outside.
"Enter!"
Xu Mo was a little surprised, and his voice was very unfamiliar.
Soon, a burly middle-aged man walked in.
Xu Mo hesitated and asked, "Are you?" ”
"Report, I'm the captain of the third echelon, Shang Deli!"
The middle-aged man saluted and replied without squinting.
"Hello, first echelon captain Xu Mo."
Xu Mo introduced himself and stretched out his hand in a friendly manner.
Shang Deli stretched out his hand and shook it, and stopped talking.
Xu Mo waited for a long time with a smile on his face before he took the initiative to ask, "Do you have anything to do with me?" ”
"See you!"
Shang Deli stood straight and spoke very straight.
"Sit."
Xu Mo turned sideways and stretched out his hand to invite.
"No, I've seen it."
Shang Deli said that he would come to meet, but he really just met, and turned around and left without saying a word.
Xu Mo touched his nose, a little embarrassed.
In fact, these soldiers put most of their energy into training, and they didn't have time to learn how to deal with them, so they were all straightforward personalities, and they would say whatever they wanted.
"Report!"
As soon as Shang Deli left, an unfamiliar voice came from outside the tent.
"Enter!"
Xu Mo replied and continued to smile.
The curtain was lifted, and a veteran with three scars on the left side of his face walked in.
Xu Mo looked at him and asked with a smile, "You are the captain of the second echelon, right?" ”
"Sir, how do you know? This is the first time we've met. ”
The veteran was much more talkative than the previous one, and didn't look as serious.
Xu Mo smiled: "Guess." ”
"Report to the chief, the second echelon captain Wu Wenhai is here to report!" The veteran straightened up, saluted and reported loudly.
"First echelon captain Xu Mo, please take a seat."
Xu Mo leaned sideways again and made an inviting gesture.
"Great!"
Wu Wenhai grinned and sat down unceremoniously at the only small table in the tent.
Xu Mo sat opposite him and asked, "I also just came, why do you call me sir?" ”
Wu Wenhai replied: "The captain of the first echelon has emergency command rights, so he is naturally our commander. ”
Xu Mo said calmly: "I don't even know about this. ”
"Maybe the chiefs were too busy to forget about it, but we all got orders."
Wu Wenhai sat up straight, asking and answering.
"What is Emergency Command?"
Xu Mo felt the need to ask clearly, after all, this task was not trivial.
Wu Wenhai replied: "In the state that we are out of contact with the headquarters, in case of emergency, the commander can directly issue action orders to us instead of the chief!" ”
Xu Mo nodded, indicating understanding.
This command is only a preparatory measure, and it is unlikely that it will be used.
But I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid that if I really get to that point, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to take this position.
Xu Mo knew how many catties and taels he had, so he asked, "This emergency command is effective in the three echelons, right?" ”
Wu Wenhai nodded and said, "Yes!" ”
Xu Mo said seriously: "You see, I have never been a soldier, and I have no leadership experience, this emergency command is easy to delay things in my hands, otherwise, this emergency command is still handed over to you, if there is really any emergency, the first echelon will listen to you." ”
Wu Wenhai shook his head and said: "If you fight outside the barrier, then it's okay to say, if you fight inside the barrier, we won't need it, this emergency command, to put it bluntly, is to let you meet the surviving comrades, and you can bring one out of one." ”
The implication of his remarks was obvious: the emergency command authority was either not used, and once it was used, it proved that there were heavy casualties.
Xu Mo can understand, so he no longer dwells on this issue.
Talking too much makes the atmosphere even heavier.
The big war is coming, and a good mindset is very important.
Wu Wenhai reported to him about the camp again, and then got up to leave.
Xu Mo also learned a lot of things, through the second international video conference and private negotiations, Huaxia won a lot of priorities, and the priority selection of camps was only one of them.
After the video conference, countries completed a data exchange and integration in a very short time, and the research teams in the rainforest underwent a large-scale clean-up, eliminating all countries that did not have research capabilities.
Today, there is only one team of researchers left in the rainforest, which is made up of professional researchers assigned by each country.
The representative of the Chinese research is still Ruan Qingsi, and it occupies a dominant position.
The barrier was about to open, and she was certainly on the front line now.
Xu Mo waited boredly in the tent for a while, and decided to go to the rainforest to have a look.
But there was no protective clothing, so I had to wait patiently.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for the combat uniforms and selected equipment to be delivered, and they were sent to the tents of the four members of the first echelon.
The combat uniform also has the effect of isolating the powder mist, so Xu Mo decided to equip it now and go to the rainforest.
This time he did not hang a grenade, because it was not in combat condition.
When he finished dressing and walked out of the tent, he found that the three trainees had been waiting for a long time in their combat uniforms.
Shi Yong is burly and tall, and his combat uniform is also customized according to his figure, with that exaggerated sledgehammer, he looks particularly powerful and domineering.
