Regarding the list of departures from Niutou Mountain, Chen Ming can finalize it in a small area, and the final notice still needs to be issued by the general team.

After dinner, all the squads and squadron leaders were gathered for a meeting.

Chen Ming and Lao Xiong are not from the dragon's tooth, and they were arranged to wait for news in the dormitory.

Looking at the dark night sky outside, Chen Ming's thoughts wandered, he had been in the army for many years, and a lot of tempering was experienced here.

Brutal selection, actual combat in Heizhou, rescue in Wugai Mountain, promotion to captain

The past is vivid, as if it was just yesterday.

Lao Xiong didn't have this kind of mood, holding a water cup in both hands, nesting in Chen Ming's dormitory, sipping tea, recalling his experience during the day.

For him, the trip to the dragon's tooth was full of emotion.

As far as the soldiers are concerned, ordinary troops see that the training of the hard-headed company or the Nakano Tiger Division is indeed very fierce, but at most, they sigh a few words in their hearts, admitting that they are powerful, and they will not think that they are bad.

This stems from the bloody nature of the military and the nature of not admitting defeat.

The dragon's tooth was different, so that this veteran who had experienced the battlefield was silent for a long time.

I can't do it, I can't do it.

In Lao Xiong's heart, except for freaks like Chen Ming, whether it is a single soldier or a cooperative battle, as long as there are the same numbers and the same scale of weapons, then no one is the opponent of the dragon's teeth.

He was requisitioned a little subdued.

Holding the water cup, he drank it for a long time before he looked up at Chen Ming who was standing at the window, and said with a sneer: "Chief of Staff, I listened to you discuss with the people of the Dragon Tooth for a long time today."

"Since the above intends to let the next red-blue confrontation and integrate such a strong Red Army combined force, will the net definitely have an effect?"

"I don't really understand that, either."

Hearing Lao Xiong's inquiry, Chen Ming relieved himself and shook his head slightly, "What must have an effect." ”

"The formation of Skynet is only a necessary step to build the Blue Army, and now the times are developing, and the national defense construction is also continuing to progress, which is very different from when I first entered the barracks."

"The significance of forming the Blue Army lies in the fact that it can be trained on a larger scale and closer to the war."

"We only have an advantage as Blues, but to say that the arrangement is useful is nonsense, and if we can determine which arrangement will make the war an absolute victory."

"It must not be Skynet, but an epoch-making arrangement."

"Ah?!!h Old Bear swallowed his saliva in surprise, he had a preconceived idea that such a powerful dragon tooth would definitely make the Blue Army invincible if he had to dispatch a team, a team of engineers.

"Then you discussed the joint tactics of the Marine Corps, the Air Assault Brigade, and the Composite Brigade today, and discussed it with several captains for a long time."

"Still can't you win?"

"Sure win?" Chen Ming looked at Lao Xiong with some surprise, and then realized that the experience during the day may have hit too hard.

As a result, the old squad leader has an illusion of self-confidence in the dragon's teeth.

But this is also normal, anyone who encounters a group of dogfights, cooperates, and tactically drills to an impeccable group, will be more or less hit.

Chen Ming ignored Lao Xiong's doubts, took the water cup by himself, poured himself a cup of hot water, and held it in his hand.

"In the so-called war, there is nothing that you must think can be won from the beginning."

"The Skynet system is only an assist, which can let us know the enemy's movements more clearly, squad leader, you came down from the border, you may not know much about these, you will know later."

"Yes, I really don't know how to command." The old bear scratched his head honestly, this is true.

However, not all of them are capable of commanding troops in battle, and the vast majority of them cannot command even a small team of three or four people, let alone command thousands of people.

"I have a question, how do you know how the Red Army will conduct it when you command the war?"

"Or how do we deal with it?"

"Huh this?" Chen Ming put the water cup on the table with a smile and said confidently: "Operational command is a long, complex, and varied subject."

"But it is also a discipline with the broadest scope and the most extensive autonomy."

"The two armies are at war, and when they are not familiar with each other's commanders, they usually engage in tentative attacks."

"At this stage, we can often test the intentions and command habits of the opposing commander."

"At the beginning of the battle, we didn't know the enemy, then the enemy won't understand us, if the intelligence is too biased, then there is no need to fight."

"Under this premise, such as the last time I fought against the Red Army, I don't know what their tactical arrangements were, and I don't know what they will do next."

"But I knew what we were most afraid of for the Blues at that time, and what we were most afraid of was what the Reds wanted most."

"This is a very general operational idea to carry out tactical arrangements, contain their firepower, and defeat their main force step by step."

"Do you understand?"

"Oh~" Lao Xiong nodded suddenly, and then said, "I still don't understand."

This sudden "oh", thinking that he understood, Chen Ming rolled his eyes and didn't continue.

This afternoon, he and several captains analyzed the weaknesses of the various units for a long time, so that they could make better arrangements for the operation in the future.

One of them popularized science, the other was ignorant, and they talked for most of the day.

Chen Ming's dormitory door was pushed open again, and Xu Dongsheng, the leader of the fire knife team, ran back.

As soon as he came in, he smiled loudly and said, "Okay, Lao Chen, you can be said to have come over this time." ”

"Just now, the general team has issued an order to arrange for the Thunder Squad to go to Niutou Mountain for training in the next few days, but it will take a year and a half to say the least of the forces involved."

"Assist the engineer unit to make every effort to build the Skynet system."

"You've been fine for the past two days, it's okay"

"I'll be back early tomorrow morning." Chen Ming smiled and got up and interrupted Captain Xu's words.

"The dragon's tooth brother is going over, I should go back in advance to prepare."

"There is also the cooperation of the meteorological department and the aerospace department, and we must also negotiate."

"The establishment of an adjustment system is no longer just a problem in our army, and all units must be in place."

"I also want to stay here for a few more days, but now the task is heavy and the time is tight, so I can't delay."

Xu Dongsheng, who was interrupted from speaking, was slightly stunned, and when he looked up at Chen Ming again, he could only sigh.

Yes, Chen Ming's identity is different now.

The chief of staff of the only Blue Army Brigade in the Eastern Theater is also responsible for the formation.

It can't be as casual as it used to be.

The little guy grew up too fast back then, and he, the captain of the fire knife team, felt a little uncomfortable.

Xu Dongsheng came to Chen Ming, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said after a while: "That's okay."

"Knowing you're busy, I won't keep you."

"Gray pigeons, they don't need me to explain, they can command, this time, the captain of the Thunder Squad is Zhou Hai, codenamed Thunderbolt."

"You have also seen him today, a comrade who has only come to our dragon tooth in recent years."

"There may be a little lack of experience, you have the opportunity to mention him, after all, most of the members of the Thunderbolt team are new teams that you led before."

"Okay, I know."

Chen Ming nodded and didn't say anything more.

Dragon's Tooth selection squadron leader may be based on seniority, or seniority is part of it.

But when it comes to choosing a squad leader, seniority is never the first thing to look at.

They only look at their ability, whether they are suitable for command, and whether they have the strength to take the whole squad out and bring it back.

After all, it is not easy to train a warrior in a combat unit like Dragon's Tooth.

If there is no suitable commander to lead the squad and rush into battle, then the squad will not be far from destruction.

Rather than indiscriminate, it has always been the purpose of the dragon's teeth.

That's why Chen Mingdu has been gone for so many years, and the Thunder Squad has found a suitable candidate.

Regardless of whether there is a direct relationship with Dragon Tooth in the future, one thing is right what the captain of the Fire Knife Squad said just now, many of the thunder are people brought out by Chen Ming before.

More or less to take care of.

Early the next morning.

Chen Ming did not go to see the team, and Longya only had the rule of coming back to report, but there was no precedent for setting off to say goodbye.

When you come, there is not much movement, and when you leave, there is even less movement.

Just a helicopter piloted by a broiler and sent the two of them back to the artillery brigade of the 71st Army.

The sports meeting here is still going on, and most of the brigade headquarters except for the people left behind go to watch the stadium.

Chen Ming didn't bother Brigade Commander Tang anymore, and arranged for Lao Xiong to drive the car out.

Go straight to Jinling.

Coming to Jinling City, Chen Ming had two things to do.

The first thing was official business, when Jiang Zhenjun told him that he could go to Longya for a trip and ask someone to help.

He also deliberately explained the direction of the changes to "brainstorming".

Now Chen Mingren is invited, but the follow-up will require the cooperation of Fuzhou or other units, relying on a combat unit of the 704th Division alone, the face is not so big, and it is not good to find others.

If the theater comes forward to say hello, Chen Ming, the general headquarters of the theater, does not need to go, and there is no need to go there, where the affairs of the entire theater navy and air force are in charge.

Although the old man is there, he can't do such a thing.

The Blue Brigade can go directly to the Army Command.

After Chief of Staff Jiang's report on the matter ended, Chen Ming went to do the second thing non-stop.

That is, to go to my father-in-law's house to see, Jinling is here, and it is not a courtesy not to go back.

Jinling City, Huaiyin Road, No. 2.

Chen Ming was holding a gift in his hand and wearing a military uniform standing not far from the gate post to watch.

Lao Xiong was arranged by him to a nearby hotel, and when he came to the old man's house, the habit of bringing people was not good.

Today's Chen Ming is not the chief staff officer of the Tiger Wolf Battalion many years ago, he can be said to be well-informed and knows enough about things in the army.

When he was young, he had a momentum, and a cadre at the company level dared to go to No. 2 Courtyard to be a guest with the tea and old cellar given by the two leaders of the brigade.

The whole battalion also gave advice.

Recalling the past, Chen Ming's heart was also in a trance, but fortunately, he was bold at the beginning.

If he is put on hold now, the higher his position, the more cautious he will be, and he may not be able to come over as a guest so calmly.

What kind of place is the No. 2 Courtyard, as soon as Chen Ming arrived, he was targeted by someone in the dark and reported to the door guard.

One of the majors on duty got the news and strode towards Chen Ming, now he is also half of the Chai family, and the No. 2 courtyard naturally has authority.

After the major walked in and saw the comer, he was obviously relieved, and it was inconvenient to salute on the street, so he raised his hand and invited: "Chief of Staff Chen, why don't you come in?"

"The old man and Director Chai are here."

"Let's go."

"Haha, I also just arrived, go to the Army Headquarters to report to work, and stop by to have a look."

Chen Ming was asked, relieved and responded with a smile, and handed the gift to the major in front of him.

It's not that he's big, it's the rule.

Even if he has the authority, what should be inspected still has to be checked, and it has nothing to do with people, it is purely a gift under approval.

The major carried the gift, weighed the weight slightly, swept it over the instrument at the door, and handed it to Chen Ming.

"Chief of Staff Chen, go in, the old man happens to be there, I guess I'm very happy to see you coming."

"Since you moved to Fuzhou with Director Chai, you haven't been at home for a long time."

"Let's go."

"Hey, okay."

Chen Ming took the things and strode towards the small courtyard.

It's not the first time he's been here, but every time he comes over, he's in a different mood.

The outside of the hospital is heavily guarded, but the inside of the hospital is quite quiet.

Behind a small bamboo forest is a small white three-story building, in front of which is filled with all kinds of greenery.

It is quiet and elegant, even if it is spring, it is still full of flowers, and it is really a good place to live.

When Chen Ming entered the small courtyard, the gate guard would naturally report, and before he entered the door, Chai Shuyao ran out of the building quickly, followed by his grandmother Yang Lanying.

The grandfather and grandson were quite enthusiastic.

His wife Chai Shuyao even hugged Chen Ming's arm, although the two of them have been married for many years, their relationship has always been very good.

"Why didn't you tell me in advance when you came, I'll pick you up."

"What else do you bring, there is nothing missing at home."

"It's okay, come and see grandma, see grandpa." Chen Ming looked at Yang Lanying with a smile, "Hello grandma." ”

"Okay, Xiao Chen, come in." Yang Lanying warmly invited.

She is also very satisfied with this grandson-in-law.

Chai Shuyao pulled Chen Ming with a smile, put the gift on the side of the small courtyard by the way, and said quietly: "Grandpa is at home, making tea and reading books in the backyard."

"Grandpa doesn't know the news of your coming, so let's go over and say hello."

"yes, okay."

The rules of the Chai family are very strict, and they have the style of the gate in ancient times.

Generally, men talk about things, women can't talk about things, and when they return home, they must first go to meet their elders.

This is a little different from an ordinary family, but the warm atmosphere is similar.

Chai Shuyao's grandfather, also known as the old man Chai Yansong, is tall, with a scar of more than ten centimeters on his face, not angry and arrogant, quite majestic.

He has no other preferences in his life, except that he is proficient in the tea ceremony, but Chen Ming is just the opposite, no matter how good the tea is, it is no different from cheap tea foam for him.

It's nothing more than a fragrant fragrance, and the feeling that penetrates people's hearts and spleens is very refreshing, but if you don't pursue this, you don't care about good or bad.

At this time, in the backyard, the old man was wearing glasses and holding a copy of "Leaves of Grass" in his hand to watch.

Next to it, there was a charcoal stove with a black teapot bubbling on it.

Boiling tea, Chen Ming didn't understand it even more, he glanced at it casually, walked quickly to him, stood upright, and said, "Grandpa, I'm back."

"Oh?" The old man glanced up, put down the book in his hand and said with a smile: "Have you reported the situation to the Army Headquarters?"

"Sit down, I know you're back, I didn't expect you to come so soon."

"Didn't you stay in Dragon's Tooth for two more days?"

The old man said with a smile, picked up a tea cup by the way, and poured a cup for Chen Ming.

"No, there is still a lot to run in terms of work, so I arranged it, and I couldn't stay a little, so I came back early."

Chen Ming sat down and responded truthfully.

"Well, get busy, do you have any arrangements for the plan for this war zone?"

"Yes, please rest assured grandpa, I have some experience in the investment of new combat forces, the thinking of joint operations, and the arrangement of training troops with real mirrors."

"Come step by step, it's okay for the time being."

"Well, that's good." The old man nodded slightly, lifted the stove, stirred up the coals a few times, and beckoned, "Come and sit closer, and bake the fire."

"Although it is spring, the weather in Jinling is still a little cold, it may be that I am too old to compare with you young people."

"If you are sure, let it go, I didn't want you to enter the Blue Army too early, you should know what is going on."

"But at present, although the military department has not clarified the positioning of the strategic assault division, it has slowly figured out some."

"While you're still a pilot master, you can do it freely."

Still a pilot division?

Chen Ming was slightly stunned, listening to the old man's meaning, then he would directly promote the command of the Blue Army Brigade to the division level command in the future?

It's a whole different story.

Don't look at the 704th Division, which currently has more than 10,000 people, with division-level firepower and logistics.

But it's useless to have it, there is a difference between the base and the combat troops in the regular sequence after all.

Not to mention, in the past, there were always people who would talk about strategic assault divisions, as division-level blue army subordinates in the theater of operations, the two highest commanders, how can they bring pine branches.

What's the use of talking?

Everything must be based on the final determination, and the name of the pilot division has not been removed at present, and it is not clear what the above thinks, but the internal rectification has been carried out.

As if seeing Chen Ming's surprise, the old man smiled and stretched out his hand to roast the charcoal fire.

"Let go and do it, I didn't help you, and I don't need to help you."

"In the last operation, the theater specially arranged for the 5th Brigade that knew you best, originally to see the results of the training, so that the theater could judge the next arrangements."

"I didn't expect you to suddenly take over the command and catch a group of our old guys off guard, the victory or defeat of a battle may not mean anything."

"But we don't plan to give 704 too much free time, to slowly improve, in recent years, the situation has become more and more severe, training is imminent, and preparation for war is imminent."

"Just set up a stage, sing a few good plays for the people on the other side, and sing the play to the fullest."

"In the past few days, the war zone has submitted a list of promotions, and your name is among them."

"I believe that the results will be available in a few days."

"Go ahead, young people have their own way, and I can last a few years for the old man."

"No need to worry!!"

"Yes, Grandpa."

Chen Ming nodded hurriedly, although the old man didn't seem to say anything, he also solved many of his questions.

This trip to Jinling is really worth the trip.
