Chapter 66 Acting Alone! What are these two recruits doing?
On the fourth day after arriving at Queshan, the soldiers received their weapons.
Xu Ge looked at the training schedule, and the main contents were physical fitness, reconnaissance, wilderness survival, parachuting, and shooting.
Considering the confrontation that would be faced in three days, all members of the Sixth Company conducted intensive training on this reconnaissance project.
Especially for new recruits, who have never been exposed to this before, some basic common sense must be mastered as soon as possible.
The mountain is very big, and each platoon chose a hill to start training.
The third row was located in a low mountain area with dense vegetation two kilometers away from the camp. At this time, everyone was standing in a circle with their guns, listening to Luo Shan's lecture.
As the reconnaissance vanguard of the regiment, Luo Shan naturally took on the role of instructor.
"Based on the level of the reconnaissance target, it can be divided into three categories: strategic reconnaissance, campaign reconnaissance, and tactical reconnaissance. Each category is all-encompassing and involves all aspects. For us, the main focus is on tactical reconnaissance."
"Although tactical reconnaissance is the smallest category, it still requires a lot of skills. For example, the five-kilometer cross-country run we usually train for is a basic subject. In addition, there are mountain climbing, jungle crossing, long-distance forced marches, etc. For us in the Wolf Brigade, the focus is on armed reconnaissance..."
"Stop, stop, stop! Stop, stop!"
Guo Yuanshuai couldn't stand it any longer. He pointed at the confused new recruits around him and said, "You academics always like to throw out a bunch of theories when you talk. Ask them how many of them can actually understand it?"
Luo Shan was speechless when he saw the expressions of the new recruits. He asked, "You didn't understand?"
The new recruits shook their heads, and the veterans smiled secretly with their heads down.
Luo Shan was a little embarrassed. "Old squad leader, how do you think we should teach? The company commander said we should start with common sense theory."
"Who can't recite from a book? You might as well give each of them a scout manual and ask them to memorize it. After they memorize it, they will understand it."
Guo Yuanshuai stood up and said, "Let me do it."
Luo Shan's face lit up with joy. He was naturally more than happy to have Guo Yuanshuai take action, so he quickly invited him to the center.
Guo Yuanshuai looked at everyone and raised a finger: "Don't worry about the classifications. Just remember one thing: reconnaissance has only one purpose, and that is to gain information about the enemy!"
"Oh~"
The recruits immediately realized that it was so simple.
"What is the prerequisite for obtaining enemy information? Of course, you have to hide yourself from being discovered."
Guo Yuanshuai continued, "In this process, we will definitely encounter many obstacles and difficulties, and all subjects are designed to solve these problems.
The enemy is far away and time is short, so we must learn to march quickly, cross the jungle, and climb the mountains. If we need to capture someone for interrogation, we must learn to capture and fight.
The terrain is unfamiliar and we need to conduct close reconnaissance, so what should we do?"
The recruits immediately spoke up.
"Distinguish the direction and identify the terrain and features!"
"Makeup disguise!"
Guo Yuanshuai smiled. "That's right! You're all very smart! Now that we know what reconnaissance is, what is counter-reconnaissance?"
Now everyone spoke more actively.
"I know, we must not let the enemy get any information about us!"
"Find those hidden enemies!"
"Throw smoke bombs, mix truth and falsehood, keep them guessing!"
Guo Yuanshuai looked at Luo Shan and spread his hands. "Does everyone know how to do this? It's such a simple thing, why make it so complicated? Let's start practicing with each class!"
Luo Shan gave a thumbs up: "Old squad leader, it really has to be you!"
Xu Ge was sitting in the team. He had only partially understood what Luo Shan had said before, but as soon as the deputy squad leader started talking, he understood what reconnaissance was.
As expected, when it comes to leading troops at the grassroots level, the academic school is completely defeated by the practical school.
The token automatically emerged, and another skill grid on the front lit up.
"Reconnaissance: Level 1 (43/99)"
. . .
. . .
In the next three days, the two new recruits, Xu Ge and Li Dongshui, followed the veterans of Class 9 to conduct targeted reconnaissance training.
At the request of Guo Yuanshuai, reconnaissance training also incorporated tactical formations and tactical coordination, so that during the confrontation, the team would not be completely in the dark, not knowing where their own people were or where to run.
It can be seen from the list of reconnaissance pioneers in the hands of Battalion Commander Zhang Hua that the veterans of Class 9 are very good at this.
Six reconnaissance experts can teach two smart recruits, let alone two pigs.
It only took Xu Ge two and a half days to learn how to identify terrain and how to track traces. He also learned several tactical formations at the company level and how to confirm the commander and his own position based on the formations.
Correspondingly, his reconnaissance skills also reached level 2.
Reconnaissance: Level 2 (13/199).
Li Dongshui was still a little confused about the positioning, so Guo Yuanshuai told him directly: "Just follow Xu Ge when the time comes. Wherever he goes, you go!"
Li Dongshui looked at the 201 high-precision sniper rifle in his arms and asked in confusion, "Deputy Squad Leader, I'm a sniper. Shouldn't I be following Wang Lin?"
Guo Yuanshuai: "We don't need snipers for this confrontation. You and Wang Lin should both switch to 191mm rifles."
Li Dongshui was stunned: "Ah? Why?"
"Xu Ge, you come and explain it to him!"
"oh!"
Xu Ge looked at Li Dongshui and said, "Because sniper rifles are useless. This is a confrontation exercise. Our guns are loaded with blanks and laser launchers. Once we enter the mountains, there are obstacles everywhere. Only close combat can defeat the enemy."
"So that's how it is!" Li Dongshui suddenly realized.
At around 3:00 p.m. on the third day, the brigade's command and control team arrived with equipment.
Unlike the time in the recruit company, this time there were obviously more laser receivers that needed to be worn on the body, not only on the helmet and torso, but also on the limbs.
Moreover, each color of smoke represents a different meaning. Red means killed in action, green means slightly injured but can continue to fight, and yellow and blue mean seriously injured and unable to move.
The official start time of the confrontation is 0:00 tonight, but before dinner even started, Xu Ge discovered that many veterans had disappeared.
These people went into the mountains in advance for reconnaissance and surveillance.
At ten o'clock in the evening, several drones flew over the mountains across the river, and dozens of commanders also entered the mountains with recorders in hand. The real-time images of the confrontation will be broadcast live to the brigade headquarters of both sides.
At half past eleven, Liu Guoping led everyone across the river and arrived at the foot of the mountain on the opposite bank.
"All squads and platoons have been notified of the tactical arrangements. I have only one request: we must win, but our casualty rate must be kept below 50%!"
Liu Guoping looked at everyone and asked, "Are you all clear?"
"clear!"
The instructor on the side took a deep look at Liu Guoping. What an arrogant company commander!
As soon as twelve o'clock passed, the director waved the flag and said, "The confrontation begins!"
No one in the Sixth Company moved, they just stood there waiting.
Liu Guoping pressed the intercom: "Luo Shan, what's the situation?"
Luo Shan's voice came into everyone's headphones: "Areas 1 and 3 are booby-trapped. I suggest heading towards Area 5."
"receive!"
Liu Guoping raised his gun, waved his hand, and ran into the forest on the right.
The others immediately dispersed and rushed into the mountains in silence.
Rustle!
Amidst the hurried footsteps, the members of Class 9 were moving quickly through the mountains.
A conductor holding a recorder followed Class 9 throughout the entire process. It seemed that this person had good qualities and did not show any signs of fatigue after running for such a long time.
There is no need to worry about encountering the enemy at the moment. The formal contact between the two sides should be at the top of the mountain.
Considering that Guo Yuanshuai was injured, Team 9 was heading towards the most accessible area in the entire mountain range. However, even so, Guo Yuanshuai's breathing was still a little heavy.
Niu San, who was running in the front, stopped first and turned around and said, "Deputy, you stay where you are and rest. It will be the same if we go up first!"
Guo Yuanshuai paused to catch his breath, thought for a moment, and said, "The five of you go up first and follow the original plan. Xu Ge and Li Dongshui will follow behind me."
"yes!"
The next moment, the five veterans suddenly accelerated and disappeared in a moment.
Guo Yuanshuai looked back at the director curiously, but the director did not follow him and still pointed the recorder at him.
"Why don't you follow?" Guo Yuanshuai asked directly.
The instructor said sternly, "During the confrontation, you are not allowed to chat with the instructor. This is a warning... What are you doing, old squad leader?"
Knock knock knock!
Guo Yuanshuai walked over and tapped the camera of the recorder with his finger a few times, then said to the camera, "Squad Leader, can you please stop letting him follow me around? I can't get rid of him, and it's so uncomfortable!"
Conductor: ...
It seems that Deputy Captain Guo has already guessed that the brigade commander wanted him to follow here.
After Guo Yuanshuai finished saying this, he looked at the earphones in the guide's ears and found that the other party had no response. He had no choice but to continue taking Xu Ge and Li Dongshui up the mountain.
After walking for a while, Xu Ge suddenly came up and whispered, "Deputy, I want to act alone."
Guo Yuanshuai stopped in his tracks, raised his hand, and smacked him on the head: "Nonsense! Do you really think this is playing house?"
"Deputy squad leader, I am confident that I can find the company commander of the infiltration company and kill him, or capture him alive!" Xu Ge said hurriedly.
Guo Yuanshuai: ???
"What did you say?"
Xu Ge repeated it again in a low voice.
Guo Yuanshuai's eyes lit up: "Is it Ao Xiang..."
"Um!"
"Okay, then you and Li Dongshui go together!"
"yes!"
Xu Ge waved his hand and immediately ran to the left with Li Dongshui, and soon disappeared.
The director seemed to have received some news and immediately chased in the direction where Xu Ge and Li Dongshui disappeared.
Guo Yuanshuai instantly felt relaxed all over. He carried his gun on his back, hummed a little tune, and began to slowly walk up the mountain.
. . .
. . .
At the end of the road four kilometers away from the Second Battalion’s camp, there is also a group of tents. This is the headquarters of the Wolf Brigade.
At this time, in the largest combat command tent in the middle of the camp, a group of people were sitting on chairs looking at the screens around them.
At this time, Zhang Fengxue had a dark face, and a group of officers including three regiment commanders and Wolf Head King Lai were all lowering their heads and trying to suppress their laughter.
Just now, Guo Yuanshuai was so carelessly knocking on the camera and complaining to Zhang Fengxue, and everyone naturally saw it.
"Xiao Shuai is still so unreasonable. How could he come and knock on the recorder during the exercise?" Zhang Fengxue said unhappily.
No one else said anything. Knowing that Guo Yuanshuai was the brigade commander's soldiers, they all remained silent.
That is, Gao Wen, the deputy chief of staff of the first regiment, echoed the criticism with a bland curse.
Wolf Head King suddenly said, "Hey, where are the two new recruits from Class 9?"
Zhang Fengxue looked at the screen and found that the two recruits beside Guo Yuanshuai were gone. He immediately pressed the microphone: "Director No. 17, go and follow those two recruits and see what they are doing."
Soon, the scene on the screen changed, and the camera followed two recruits carrying guns.
Wang Lai felt that the view was not clear enough, so he walked closer and stared at the screen carefully.
His action immediately attracted the attention of others. The new recruit who could be noticed by the Wolf Head must have something to say, so everyone looked at the screen curiously.
Zhang Fengxue knew that Wang Lai was very optimistic about the two new recruits, and their current behavior was also rather unusual, so he simply asked the staff officer to switch the picture to the large screen in the middle.
The people in this tent are either the chief officers of each regiment or the chief of staff of the front line. It can be said that they are all experts in fighting, not to mention Zhang Fengxue, the brigade commander.
It only took a moment for everyone to notice something was wrong.
Regimental Commander Fu Qiang sat up straight and asked curiously, "I remember the Sixth Company didn't have night vision goggles in their equipment tonight. How come these two recruits are running so fast and so steadily?"
After Fu Qiang said this, the others soon noticed this and immediately became interested.
"It seems that these two people are really not simple!"
"Is this a new soldier? Why does he seem more skilled than the veterans in navigating the mountains and forests?"
"Yeah, neither of them turned on the flashlight, right?"
Knowing that Xu Ge had excellent night vision, the Wolf-Head King didn't say anything. He knew Xu Ge and knew that this guy was probably planning some sinister trick.
After observing for a while, the brigade commander, Zhang Fengxue, discovered something deeper. He waved his hand and called the operations staff over, "Pull up the electronic warfare map and mark the locations of these two recruits."
"yes!"
Soon, two spots of light appeared on the map, moving straight towards the top of the mountain.
"It seems these two little guys are running with a purpose."
Zhang Fengxue became interested. "Mark out the positions of the other members of the Sixth Company. I want to see if they're up to anything new."
Soon, the position coordinates of the other members of the Sixth Company appeared on the screen, and they were all concentrated on the right side.
"Hmm? These two new recruits don't seem to have any tactical coordination with the main force. What are they doing? Running around aimlessly?"
Zhang Fengxue muttered to himself, then continued, "Contact the 75th Army and tell them I said so. Ask them to give them the location authority for the infiltration company!"
"yes!"
More than ten minutes later, dozens of other red spots that were also moving rapidly appeared on the electronic map.
In an instant, the whole tent was in commotion.
