At dawn, the soldiers of the 5th Battalion, who had been tossing all night, started their chariots and ran wildly, all the way away from the Blue Army area, and smoothly entered the Red Army garrison.

Straight line deep, until it reached the hinterland of the Red Army and the convergence of the 2nd Special Operations Battalion before stopping the advance.

I can't help it.

At night, the Eighth Division of the Blue Army's Tianshan Mountains and the old nest of the Mountain Assault Brigade codenamed Baiyun Mountain Regiment were tossed away.

If you think about it, you can guess that during the day, the Blue Army combat area will inevitably conduct carpet reconnaissance, vowing to find out all the hidden enemy troops in the hinterland.

If you don't run now, when?

Chen Ming got down from the command vehicle and breathed a sigh of relief, commanding the operation seemed simple but step by step, and there could be no mistakes.

After coming down, he saw the soldiers and cadres of each company coming out of the chariot, Chen Ming waved his hand and said: "Each company quickly integrates the situation of last night's battle damage, and wait for the next report."

"The engineer detachment, the cooking class, set up tents here, build stoves and prepare for cooking on fires, and rest for the rest of the days to find out the combat situation before going to war."

"The blue army should not be so easy to infiltrate the hinterland at the beginning of the war, arrange one company to be on duty, and the other companies should sleep and sleep, and recuperate their spirits."

"Yes, Counselor Chen."

A group of soldiers started to move things from the chariots, in fact, they didn't need to light a fire at all, and the cooking squad of the Mountain Assault Brigade had prepared breakfast for the front line early, and almost all of them were coordinated.

Steamed steamed buns, steamed buns, noodles, milk, and even pots and basins were brought back, for fear that they would be hungry without logistical supplies.

In an instant, in the chariot group of the five battalions, there were piles of oil drums all over the ground, and many chariots lacked space, and the soldiers were all holding them in their arms and sitting on the car.

Vegetable baskets, steaming drawers, marching pots, dry firewood, and seasoning packets were piled all over the floor.

Qin Dong, the commander of the second battalion of special operations, came over to say hello, and when he saw the situation on the side of the fifth battalion, his shocked eyes almost fell out.

"I'll go, Counselor Chen, what are you? Went to war? ”

"This battlefield is really cleaned"

The corners of Qin Dong's mouth twitched, and their special operations battalion had been called ground rats by the regular combat troops, and they were swept away.

But he still felt that he couldn't compare with the Fifth Battalion, which was too thorough, and he even saw a few soldiers take out a stir-fry shovel from their arms and hand it in, and the kitchen knives and soup spoons were all handed over.

Those who know that this is counting the loot, and those who don't know think that this is a grocery market.

This Nima, if the Blues counted them, they wouldn't have been scolded to death.

Qin Dong originally wanted to divide the several truckloads of materials pulled back equally, but now looking at the situation of the five battalions, he couldn't open his mouth about the word equalization.

Forget it, give it all to them.

Chen Ming's eyes flickered a little, his old face was slightly red, he just gave instructions to collect oil, ammunition, and dry food, but he didn't expect to collect it so thoroughly.

But after doing all the work, he wouldn't say anything, and shook his head with a serious look.

"Battalion Commander Qin, you don't understand the suffering of our lack of preparation, and the director department will not count us without the combat sequence, and the loss will not be made up at all."

"After a battle in the whole battalion, the materials will be lost, and without the logistical support from above, we can only find our own way."

"Understand, understand, understand." Qin Dong stretched out his hand and pointed to the eight big trucks behind him, "What, not dishonoring the mission, the materials of the Eighth Division of the Tianshan Mountains have been brought back to you." ”

"There is not much fuel, their tanker trucks are all on the front line, there are only bulk barrels, about two trucks, five trucks of ammunition, one cart of dry food, and the rest of the heavy weapons and ammunition can't be transported, I blew them up."

"No problem, that's enough." Chen Ming grinned, he had already seen the eight trucks, and without waiting for Qin Dong to continue, he directly greeted Ma Hongjie, the commander of the armored infantry company closest to him.

"Company Commander Ma."

"Here."

"Go, bring a few comrades who can drive over, take stock of the materials sent by the Qin battalion commander, and disperse them."

"Yes."

Ma Hongjie, who got the order, gritted his front teeth, and happily beckoned people to drive, still holding the steamed meat buns of the Blue Army in his hand, and his mouth was full of oil.

"Haha, this steamed bun of the Blue Army is fragrant, give it to the brothers of the Second Special Operations Battalion, don't eat it, thank you Battalion Commander Qin."

A group of people greeted with laughter and drove away a few large trucks unceremoniously, without leaving the second battalion with any awareness.

Qin Dong didn't care, they could replenish supplies at any time, seeing that they were already busy here, he smiled and invited Chen Ming to walk into the distance.

"Staff Officer Chen, I've heard of you before, you are also a person from the artillery brigade, and so am I, we are all soldiers led by the Tang brigade."

"I have some suggestions for this large-scale military training operation, so I won't beat around the bush."

"You say." Chen Ming nodded, he could guess Qin Dong's thoughts, which was nothing more than wanting to temporarily reach a strategic partnership with the Fifth Battalion.

The special operations battalion has little role on the battlefield, and generally a reconnaissance battalion will be arranged later to go deep into the hinterland of the Blue Army to provide coordinates for the rear.

But there are hardly any important tasks in the early stage.

Sure enough, Qin Dong pondered for a while and said, "Last night, we cooperated to eliminate the station of the Eighth Division, and the instructions given to the Second Battalion from above were to sabotage the rear as much as possible."

"Your five battalions don't have a clear combat mission, so it's better to join us, and I'll be responsible for getting the coordinates for you and reconnoitring the weak defensive area of the blue army."

"Then you fire from the outside, and I do surprise attacks from the inside, flanking from the inside and outside, and give full play to the combat firepower and cause problems for the Blues."

"What do you think?"

"Also, the second battalion will also be stationed here for the time being, and we will arrange for some soldiers to go out to reconnoiter the situation at night, and when it is suitable for us to fight, we will go out together."

"Hmm." Chen Ming smiled, turned his head to look in the direction of the second battalion, and they really started to set up tents over there.

Qin Dong's proposal reminded him inexplicably of a line from a TV series, Lao Tzu will give you a good fortune, become bigger and stronger, and create brilliance.

Of course, the lines are funny, and Qin Dong's proposal really moved Chen Ming.

What the Fifth Battalion lacks most at present is intelligence, because they do not have a clear operational objective, they do not need to listen to orders to fight, and they can mobilize troops to attack at any time.

The problem is that you have to plan well who you fight, last night was purely by mistake, and you can judge it when you just start the war, but if you continue to fight later, the defense map is useless.

There is a second battalion to do reconnaissance and is responsible for finding targets, and the fifth battalion has been engaged in battles in the past.

Chen Ming only thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, and the two commanders looked at each other and smiled, and basically finalized the cooperation policy.

After the five battalions tossed, they patted their butts and ran.

The impact is far more than that, the rear station of the Eighth Division of the Tianshan Mountains has been bombed, the logistics warehouse has been emptied, and the heavy firepower ammunition storage depot has not been left with a single hair.

The mountain assault brigade that assisted in the attack was more direct, the logistics cooking stoves were all picked, and the boiled pots of eggs were taken away, not to mention the storage of oil and gunpowder.

This situation directly led to the reckless Blue Army combat units on the frontal battlefield to stop suppressing with heavy firepower.

Beginning to retreat step by step, Chen Ming mistakenly hit the bottom of the kettle and drew salary, which made the first division and one brigade lose the confidence to continue to play heavy firepower.

However, the morale of the 71st Army was greatly boosted, and it gave full play to the enemy's way of retreating and advancing, and the six composite brigades pressed the formation with all their firepower.

Only two hours after dawn, the famous Eighth Division was beaten back for hundreds of miles, and almost half of its heavy firepower was destroyed.

The establishment of more than 10,000 people was almost lost by one-third in one night.

This is already a very remarkable achievement, you must know that the division-level combat firepower is at the front, and no matter how strong the intensity is, it will not be a problem for two or three days.

Now it has been beaten like this, not because the logistics forces of the Southern Xinjiang Military Region cannot keep up, but because there are too many places to go to war, and if the two theaters go to war, no matter how sufficient the logistics supply is, it will not be able to supply the entire battlefield overnight.

And it was precisely this night's gap that someone took advantage of the loophole.

"Haha, it's enjoyable, it's enjoyable."

At the headquarters of the 71st Army, the commander-in-chief Feng Chunyang laughed heartily, he was only promoted to the first commander of the army last year.

Originally, when Chen Ming was evaluating recruits, Luo Wentong, the leader who personally awarded him the title, had been transferred to the war zone, and Feng Chunyang was still the chief of staff of the army at that time.

Now I'm promoted.

In the command room, a group of officers grinned, fought all night and were hammered in the head by the Blues.

The sense of oppression of divisional firepower on the frontal battlefield is far from being comparable to that of ordinary combat units, and the coordinated heavy firepower is like not asking for money, and it is like launching a fierce attack on the Red Army positions in front.

The terrain of the synthetic brigade was unfamiliar, the firepower of the blue army was unknown, and the fight was timid, and the same number of firepower was on top, and it was almost powerless to fight back.

He was almost knocked out of the crossing, and was blasted open by the Blues.

Who knew that when he was about to lose his bearing, the peak turned around, and the heavy firepower of the Blue Army actually took the initiative to retreat.

It was their turn to drive straight in, suppressing the artillery bombardment of the Blues, and insisting on entering the Blues combat area, forcing them back for hundreds of miles.

The Eighth Division of the Tianshan Mountains, one of the four main divisions of the Xinjiang Provincial Military Region, was beaten back like this, and there was no reason to be unhappy in my heart.

Feng Chunyang was happy for a long time before he remembered to find out the reason for the retreat of the Eighth Division.

His eyes swept over the No. 1 brigade-level combat unit in the conference room, and he said with a bright eye: "I just received an inquiry from the director's department, saying that our Red Army has arranged a composite unit of formed scale to infiltrate the rear of the Blue Army."

"The number of operations is sufficient for the firepower of three battalions, and the logistics station of the Eighth Division of the Tianshan Mountains was destroyed with strong firepower, and the Baiyun Mountain Regiment was swept away with the search."

"I want to know, who on our side has arranged for people to fight in the rear?"

"Three battalion firepower?" Originally, Wang Junwei, commander of the 169th Brigade, was ready to get up and say the direction in which the 5th Battalion maneuvered yesterday.

But after hearing the commander-in-chief say this, he dispelled the idea of getting up.

The fifth battalion is just a medium-sized battalion, or is it an unstaffed type, even if he can toss it again, can he toss out the firepower of three battalions?

Unreliable.

It is estimated that there is something else hidden.

Cui Bai, the commander of the 71st Special Warfare Brigade, hesitated for a moment, and did not rush to speak, he only arranged for the 2nd Special Warfare Battalion to wait for an opportunity to make trouble.

If you want to say that it has an effect, it will definitely be a little, but if you want to say that you have fired three battalions of firepower, and you have also taken all the two garrisons of the Eighth Division of the Tianshan Mountain and the Baiyun Mountain Regiment, he really doesn't believe it.

How did they know that the director's judgment came entirely from the referee named Lao Sun of the Blue Army's Mountain Assault Brigade, who didn't see the battle situation in front at all.

It was only according to the mountain assault brigade that three battalions, two tank companies of the 8th Division, a light battalion, and an air defense battalion in the garrison left a company, and an artillery battalion left a company, which were destroyed almost at the same time.

This led to the speculation of three fire battalions.

Just when the headquarters of the 71st Army fell silent, the gate was pushed open, and Jiang Zhenjun, chief of staff of the Eastern Theater Army, strode in.

The whole conference room stood up.

"Hello Chief of Staff."

"Well, hello comrades, sit down." Jiang Zhenjun waved his hand.

With a smile on his face, he asked, "Haven't you found out the unit that fought last night?"

"The command of the Blue Army has complained to the director's department, saying that we have sent a bandit brigade, let's fight it, and we have taken away people's breakfast pots and steamer drawers."

"Cutting kitchen knives, marching pots are carried away, so that the large troops of the Blue Army can't eat until now, and they have to transfer dry food from the rear troops."

"Come, let me see who the commander of the bandit brigade is?"

"Bandit Brigade ?!!!"

A group of officers in the command room were completely numb.
