With a document to lead the way, Chen Ming first went to the reception room of the organ building, changed the civilian clothes on his body into camouflage, and it was nothing if he didn't wear a military uniform on the way over.

But if you want to report it, you have to pay attention to the impact is not.

In the living room, the military uniform was neatly dressed, and after a brief tidying up, Chen Ming took out the transfer letter from his bag, held it in his hand, and came to the brigade commander's office.

When I got to the door, I saw a colonel in his forties, sitting in his office with a dignified face, looking down at the papers.

"Staff Officer Chen, you go, I won't go in." Clerk Kong Wu whispered, quietly stood aside, and prepared a waiting posture.

"Hmm."

Chen Ming nodded slightly, didn't pay much attention to it, walked into the office quickly, raised his hand and saluted: "Report chief, Chen Ming, chief staff officer and fire staff officer of the Fifth Synthetic Battalion, came to report."

"This is my letter of transfer, please take a look at it."

"Well, here?" The colonel sitting in the office raised his eyes and looked at Chen Ming, and there seemed to be a hint of a smile in his majesty.

The commander of the 169th Brigade is Wang Junwei, and he is also a veteran in the entire group army.

Wang Junwei casually took the transfer letter and flipped it a few times and said with a smile: "Chen Ming, a very powerful name."

"I've heard of you, I used to be in the Second Battalion of Yuanhuo, and I have heard a little about your performance at the National Defense University of Science and Technology."

"Now, this is the information of the Synthetic Fifth Battalion, as well as your letter of appointment, take a look, and ask me if you have any questions after reading it."

"If it's no problem, you can go to the fifth camp to report."

"Yes, Chief."

Chen Ming took two quick steps to take the brown paper bag handed over by the brigade commander, and hurriedly opened it, when he saw the arrangements for the establishment of the five battalions, his eyebrows jumped slightly, and a sense of astonishment welled up in his heart.

The establishment of these five battalions was obviously more difficult than he imagined.

Originally, whether the composite battalion was heavy, medium, light or amphibious, the number of personnel was at most seven or eight hundred.

However, the requirements of the military region for the new five battalions are clearly marked in the document, and a total of eight companies must be formed, which are composed of an armored infantry company, a helicopter squadron, an artillery company, a support company, a support company, an engineer detachment, and a special reconnaissance detachment.

The total number of personnel should be strengthened to 13,400.

It is expected that the configuration of combat vehicles can be called even more luxurious, with two command vehicles, ten main battle tanks, thirty wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, six self-propelled howitzers, six self-propelled howitzers, six 35-mm anti-aircraft guns, three reconnaissance combat vehicles, four engineering vehicles, and fifteen wheeled armored vehicles.

Fifteen truck guns.

This is only the configuration of a few regular main battle companies, not counting the helicopter squadrons, not counting the armored obstacle breaking vehicles, armored repair vehicles, and armored engineering vehicles of the engineering detachments.

Not counting the rocket blasting equipment equipped with the engineer squad, the integrated minesweeper, and the truck-loaded assembled boats and pedals.

The equipment on the file alone is enough to arm two amphibious medium composite battalions.

Chen Ming didn't feel very real when he saw it.

Although at present, the research on synthetic units in China is quite thorough, and various command tactics and terminal information sharing technologies are very mature.

However, it is still somewhat impractical to put such a strengthened medium-sized composite battalion in a newly built establishment.

The positioning is a bit high.

Seeing Chen Ming standing there, holding a document for a long time without saying a word, Wang Junwei smiled and took a sip of the tea next to him: "How is it?" ”

"After reading the mission document given by the military region this time, I can directly say what I think."

"Yes, Chief." Chen Ming nodded, carefully considered his language and said, "Chief, the fifth battalion depends on whether the establishment is medium-sized or amphibious strengthened. ”

"With such a large deployment of personnel, firepower, and coordinated combat units, if there is no experienced commander to take the role, it will be difficult to form the expected combat effectiveness, and it may even be a mess."

"There is an essential difference between a synthetic unit and a regular unit, and more than a dozen arms or even more are integrated together, and command and deployment are a big problem."

"Putting this scale in a new unit, doesn't that mean that it is more difficult than forming other synthetic battalions?"

Wang Junwei listened carefully to Chen Ming's worries, and gently put the water cup in his hand on the table, being able to ask questions, which is enough to show that Chen Ming is thinking seriously and has also read this document carefully.

As the chief staff officer, if he can't even find out the problem, then he doesn't dare to entrust him with important tasks.

However, when a question is asked, he does not necessarily answer it.

"You don't need to tell me so many theories, I have seen your theoretical skills at the National Defense University of Science and Technology, and since the above arranged for you to lead the staff of the fifth battalion, it is a trust in your ability."

"Don't tell me about difficulties, if it's not difficult, why delay until now, I think you've heard that the five battalions were formed once before, but they ended in failure."

"Now, all I need to hear is, do you have the confidence to take on this task?"

Listening to the brigade commander's inquiry, Chen Ming was slightly stunned, yes, he has now been transferred to the fifth battalion as the chief staff officer.

If there is a difficulty, will it not be implemented?

The sudden change in identity made him a little uncomfortable just now, and he didn't think about it from his own point of view, but simply proposed the difficulty of this kind of formation.

Now that he was asked by the chief, Chen Ming's face no longer hesitated, and he didn't have a trace of timidity, and immediately stood up straight and put the documents on the desk.

Stand upright and salute.

"Report chief, I have this confidence and promise to complete the task."

"Good, good." Wang Junwei praised Chen Ming's performance.

"Within a year, I will give you five battalions for a year, and after a year, I will see the five battalions that form absolute combat effectiveness in front of me."

"You should have seen the battalion commander and instructor arranged, the three of you work together to do this job for me, if you need the backbone, apply to the above, if you can't apply, I will allow you to pick the whole brigade, and the green light will be opened to you all the way."

"If you battalion commanders can't handle it, I'll do it, I can't handle it, there is a military region above, a military region can't handle it, and there is a war zone above."

"In a word, in a year's time, I want to see the topics you have done at the National Defense Science and Technology University, the prospects you described, and the theory and practical actions that will be applied to the synthetic battalion."

"The responsibility of the battalion commander is to co-ordinate, and the responsibility of your staff department is the details, whether each company can give full play to their due combat effectiveness, whether they can really achieve coordination, the responsibility lies in your staff department."

"I made that clear, didn't I?"

"Yes, Chief."

"Are you confident you're done now?"

"Yes, Chief, mission guaranteed!!"

Chen Ming shouted in response, this sentence was almost equivalent to a military order.

No wonder, no wonder the above suddenly assigned him to the synthetic brigade as a staff officer, it turned out that the root cause was the topics he did at the beginning.

Seeing that Chen Ming was so confident, Wang Junwei smiled and nodded: "Disband."

"Chief of Staff Xu arranged a document for you from the brigade headquarters staff, you are leading the staff for the first time, and experienced documents can make you adapt as soon as possible."

"Three months, I will only give you three months, and then I will go to the fifth battalion to inspect, and the one-year period is to make you combat effective, but three months will also give me the beginning to take shape."

"Show me the results, understand?"

"Yes, Chief."

"Disband."

Wang Junwei waved his hand, and after Chen Ming saluted again, he turned around and exited the brigade commander's office.

It's just after the New Year, and it's a lot of pressure.

At present, he does not know to what extent the fifth battalion has progressed, and the source of personnel preparation is not clear, and he does not know what the backbone is.

Just now, he was completely held by the brigade commander, and he directly responded to the three-month agreement.

Begun

Chen Ming pondered for a long time, and couldn't say what kind of scale this has reached.

Is the approximate frame laid out? Or let the eight subordinate companies have a certain combat capability? None of these have specific requirements.

Thinking about it, Chen Ming had unconsciously walked out of the brigade headquarters building, and Kong Wu caught up from behind: "Staff Officer Chen, are we going back to the camp now, or are we going to other places to get acquainted with the new unit?"

"Go back to the camp and go to the fifth camp first to see the situation."

The tasks have been accepted, how can Chen Ming have the heart to wander around the brigade now, and he wants to devote all his energy to the next work.

"Yes, then go back to the Fifth Battalion Headquarters."

Kong Wu agreed, quickly ran to the parking lot with his backpack and drove a military vehicle to carry Chen Ming out of the brigade headquarters.

To say that this document is really conscientious, when passing by other camps along the way, he will answer them one by one and introduce them to Chen Ming.

It also focused on analyzing the current situation of the 169 Composite Brigade of the 71 st Army, as a mixed brigade, the first battalion and the second battalion are heavy composite battalions, and they are also the main combat forces of the whole brigade on the battlefield.

The third battalion and the fourth battalion are light establishments, have fast mobility capabilities, and transport troops in a timely manner, but the overall combat effectiveness is much worse, and it cannot be compared with the first battalion and the second battalion.

Four composite battalions served as the main force, and two of them were light, which also led to the entire 169 Brigade being at the bottom of the battle among the six composite brigades of the 71st Army.

It's no wonder.

Chen Ming shook his head, the strategic position of the light synthetic battalion is to deploy quickly, occupy favorable terrain, and contain on the battlefield, the policy of the medium synthetic battalion is to provide a large amount of support to stabilize the battle situation, and the heavy is to attack with heavy punches to determine the victory.

Now the 169th Brigade lacks a medium-sized formation that can really stand alone on the battlefield, as long as there is a war, other brigades will lose a combat battalion, and their side will have to send two heavy kings to resist the attack.

If the battle goes well, everything is easy to say, but once the battle is lost, there is not enough combat strength in the rear to replenish it, and the rout is a sure thing.

Counting on the light top, it is okay to have a comprehensive advantage in the battle, but it does not have the effect of turning the tide.

After Chen Ming listened to the current situation of the 169 Brigade, he leaned on the back of the car, and his heart was not calm.

No matter how difficult the next work is, he will also do it boldly, and the bold words that are not military orders but are better than military orders are said in front of the brigade commander.

How can there be any way back!!
