Chapter 237: Night attack on the headquarters, non-wartime casualties?
Under the command of Chen Mo, the entire battalion took advantage of the dark night and strong wind and headed straight towards the southern front.
He also didn't know how long the Blue Army Motorized Infantry Regiment and the subsequent supporting firepower could fight, maybe ten minutes, maybe half an hour.
In short, as long as the fight starts and the Blue Army is left defenseless for a short period of time, Chen Mo is confident that he can use this time to lead the remaining main forces and get as close as possible to the Blue Army's lair.
Late 1990s.
During the period of mechanized warfare, various applications of electronic countermeasures were not yet popular, and many commanders had no idea about electromagnetic suppression at all.
In this case, for many units, the bigger the caliber of the gun, the more powerful it is, and the faster the feet, the more glorious it is.
In the information camp, quietly leaving the battlefield.
On the battlefield where the motorized infantry regiment was located, densely packed infantrymen began to dig trenches, build lines, and set up individual positions relying on manpower.
The major deputy battalion commander of the Blue Army wiped the sweat from the back of his hand, sat on a mound, and looked in the direction where the Red Army had just fled with regret on his face.
He turned around and shouted, "Haven't you reported to the regiment yet? Damn it, run further away! I think there's something wrong with the signal tower here."
"You said this damn Red Cub Camp is pretty good at fighting, right? Why are they running away?"
"Deputy Battalion Commander, the Red Army must be afraid of us." The soldier who was digging trenches responded with a grin.
"Yes, they are afraid of us."
The major chuckled, feeling proud but also a little doubtful.
Many ordinary soldiers were unaware of how big a commotion the Informationized Battalion had caused on the Eastern Front, but the battalion-level officers had all heard about it.
Being able to force a motorized infantry division and arrange infantry to besiege a mechanized battalion, this is not an ordinary battalion-level unit.
The major didn't understand the reason. When he was feeling in his pocket and about to take out a cigarette to smell it, he suddenly heard a chaotic running sound behind them.
"What's going on?"
The major stood up and looked behind him, asking sternly.
Before anyone could respond, and there was no need to respond, bursts of machine gun fire rang out from all directions.
But the strange thing is.
It was such a dark night that I couldn’t see the flames from the machine gun muzzle at all. The back was pitch black, so dark that it was creepy.
The major dropped his cigarette and straightened his cap. "Stay alert and prevent an enemy attack."
The gunfire ahead became more and more frequent, and our people began to fire grenades and flares.
The major then discovered that the Red Army had launched an attack from behind at some point, but before the attack, they had actually fired a large number of smoke bombs nearby.
Under the illumination of flares.
In the smoke, there were shadows of infantry fighting vehicles and vehicle-mounted anti-aircraft machine guns everywhere.
Bullets rained down from behind, forcing our own soldiers to retreat continuously.
"Enemy attack!"
"Disperse, disperse quickly!!"
"First Company, Third Company, organize the flank attack, Second Company will hold the line."
"No matter what, stop the enemy's attack."
The roar exploded on the battlefield.
Unfortunately, the troops that lost their communication functions were almost all organized into squads and platoons, each of which had to choose the best way to counterattack in the shortest time possible.
On a small scale, everything looks orderly.
But looking at the entire battle situation, it was a mess and it was impossible to organize the imagined defense.
Just a few minutes.
Several mechanized infantry units of the information battalion ignited the entire war around the periphery of the Blue Army's motorized infantry base.
Everywhere was a melee of individual rocket launchers and heavy machine guns.
Everything is going according to Chen Mo's plan.
When the mechanized infantry company and armored company of the Blue Army's follow-up support received the rescue signal and rushed over.
Several teams of the Information Battalion were almost completely destroyed in the battle, and the Blue Army's reinforcements just came in time to fill the gap.
One was anxious to rescue, the other fought desperately, organizing counterattacks on multiple fronts.
The two sides lost communication, and it was too dark at night, and smoke bombs obstructed their vision.
At a long distance, you have no idea who you are hitting.
The war has reignited.
At the same time.
Chen Mo and his men made such a big noise that they tied down the main force of the Blue Army on the southern front.
After receiving the news, the Red Army Division of the Seventh War Zone immediately arranged for the 417th Regiment stationed on the eastern front to maneuver to the southern front in conjunction with the anti-aircraft artillery regiment.
The troops were mobilized on a large scale and the battlefield situation was constantly rewritten.
The staff officers of the various Red Army regiments were almost going bald from thinking, but they just couldn't understand why their own informationized battalion was fighting a deadly battle with the main force of the Blue Army.
No matter how powerful a battalion is, we have to look at its overall strength, right?
Even if the combat effectiveness is very strong, the ammunition and fuel carried by a battalion-level unit during maneuvering will not last long.
If the logistics cannot keep up and supplies cannot be delivered to the front line, it is only a matter of time before the entire army is wiped out.
Troops from the Seventh War Zone showed signs of large-scale activity.
The Blue Army's 6th Air Division, which had successfully fought for air supremacy during the day, immediately dispatched a fighter formation to assist the Blue Army and curb the Red Army's ground heavy equipment.
But the Red Army's 7th Air Division's loss of air superiority does not mean it is incapable of fighting the Blue Army.
The firepower of the two aviation divisions arrived over the Seventh War Zone almost simultaneously.
When the two sides met, fighting broke out even though they were dozens of kilometers apart.
Chen Mo was sitting in the command vehicle, resting with his eyes closed, when he heard a sound similar to a sonic boom in the air. He glanced at the distant sky through the car window.
Then he shook his head slightly.
Xiangjian's radar vehicle had already detected the appearance of the air force fighter formation, and also detected its own formation, no matter how fiercely the other side was fighting in the sky.
It has nothing to do with the units on the ground.
Without an air defense missile system, no matter how powerful the ground weapons are, they are useless.
Chen Mo didn't know that the main forces of the Red Army's 417th Regiment and the anti-aircraft artillery regiment were moving south.
He was just worried about whether the reconnaissance company's operations would go smoothly.
On the evening of the 11th.
It was almost twelve o'clock.
The reconnaissance company led by Cheng Dong finally found the area with the highest frequency of the Blue Army's electromagnetic signal.
And it is only forty kilometers away from this place.
The entire company abandoned all motor vehicles and turned off the engines on the spot. All reconnaissance company soldiers adopted light-equipped maneuvers.
Cheng Dong has just completed the pre-war mobilization.
When they were preparing to arrange the platoons to assist the soldiers of the first squad to set off.
Following the reconnaissance company, Meng Mingliang, deputy captain of the Xiangjian Electronics Squadron, quickly approached Cheng Dong and asked, "Captain Cheng, is this how you plan to arrange your soldiers for a sneak attack?"
"What's wrong? Didn't the scholar say that the Blue Army Division Headquarters must be stationed nearby where the communication is most concentrated?"
Cheng Dong frowned, a little confused.
"That's right, Chen Ying's judgment should be correct." Meng Mingliang explained with a smile: "But the decapitation plan is not implemented in this way."
"Relying solely on light equipment and maneuvering, we won't be able to run more than 20 kilometers before being spotted by the nearby garrisons, and the decapitation operation will be impossible."
"No." Cheng Dong waved his hand generously: "Isn't it just that I'm afraid of open sentries and hidden sentries? My soldiers can't do other things, but they can still detect sentries."
"What about the military dogs? How to defend against them?" Meng Mingliang looked at Cheng Dong with a half-smile.
The Kuchi Reconnaissance Company belongs to the military reconnaissance company. Normally, there is no dog squad leader in the company, and it has never carried out a decapitation mission before.
This question really stumped Cheng Dong.
The so-called infiltration and latent.
It's easy to say, but much harder to do.
Not only do they have to avoid the sentries, but they also have to deceive the military dogs. These dog squad leaders are the most easily overlooked.
Especially the armored brigade, which is almost never equipped with military dogs, is Cheng Dong's blind spot in knowledge.
But although Captain Cheng usually seems to be very loud and always thinks that he is the most important person, he is actually a very studious person.
The reconnaissance company is not good at beheading, but the flares are good.
And still do this often.
I realized that I am not as good as others in my profession.
Cheng Dong immediately smiled, took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Meng Mingliang, putting his arm around his shoulder and saying, "Captain Meng, I can tell at first glance that you are a young and promising cadre."
"Then tell me, how do you deal with military dogs?"
"Simple!"
Meng Mingliang waved his hand, and a soldier with a flare came forward immediately, took out something wrapped in oil paper from his bag, and handed it to Cheng Dong.
It weighs about two kilograms.
"What is this?" Cheng Dong opened it and saw that it was a powdery substance. He stretched his head to smell it and even wanted to lick it.
"Hey? Hey! You can't taste this." Meng Mingliang's face changed in fright when he saw this.
He had never seen such a fierce person.
"Captain Cheng, this is a numbing drug. It's used to reduce the alertness of military dogs. It can knock them out with just a little effort. No one can touch it."
"Oh, I see."
Cheng Dong was a little further away: "If you feed this to a dog, will the dog eat it?"
"Won't."
Meng Mingliang shook his head. "Have all the soldiers go to the toilet and pass this stuff out. Once we get within a 20-kilometer radius, we'll have to throw this poop mixed with numbing substances everywhere."
When Cheng Dong heard that these powders needed to be mixed with shit before use, he almost stood eight feet away, his face full of disgust.
"Old Meng, are you kidding me? Military dogs have such good food, will they eat this?"
Cheng Dong obviously didn't believe it.
"It's because military dogs are given food according to their food allowance during their growth and training, so they don't have the chance to see this kind of thing."
Meng Mingliang said with a somewhat gloomy expression, "There wouldn't be any insane breeder in the army who would use Ren Zhong Huang to train a military dog to refuse food and obey."
"For dogs with a keen sense of smell, skatole smells fragrant. No matter how powerful a military dog is, it is difficult for it to resist something it has never seen before, or in other words, it is difficult to resist the instinct of a living thing."
These experiences were not fabricated by Meng Mingliang.
Not long after the Xiangjian Special Forces was established, it received a mission to capture the chemical criminals who committed a tragedy in the Meigong River.
The mission failed and didn't even get close to the criminal's residence.
The reason is that the other party laid mines around and raised a large number of dogs, which led to exposure.
Deputy Captain Meng and two of his best comrades from the same year died in that mission.
Landmines, Bulldogs!
These two things combined can cause 80% of special forces' infiltration operations to fail.
Don’t be fooled by some reports that say special forces descended from the sky and beheaded terrorist tycoons. It seems very cool and omnipotent.
But being able to execute this step is inseparable from the surveillance and planning of the action plan in the previous months.
In short, military dogs are very fierce.
It was the failure of that mission that prompted the entire special forces brigade to study various countermeasures to reduce the mission mortality rate.
Finally, a drug was developed that would not intoxicate military dogs but could completely reduce their alertness. This could be achieved by observation around the intersection of light and dark sentries and military dogs.
Just throw a few more balls and you can effectively avoid it.
"Hey, platoon leader."
Cheng Dong turned around and shouted.
"arrive!"
Wang Yanjun ran over quickly and took the oil paper from Cheng Dong's hand: "Company Commander, what is this?"
"Go, notify the entire company to go to the main toilet and sprinkle some of this stuff on it. Then I don't care what method you use, anyway, you can pull it yourself."
"You are only allowed to throw it when I tell you to."
"Do you understand?"
"Yes, Captain!"
Wang Yanjun straightened his body. As a soldier, he had to obey the order even if he had to smear it all over his body, let alone be taken away on the battlefield.
There is no excuse for war.
After giving instructions on how to deal with the military dog, Meng Mingliang took out a liquid in an oil-paper bag from the accompanying soldier's backpack and handed it to Cheng Dong.
Captain Cheng was obedient this time.
He stretched his head and took just one look at the red liquid mixed with white and some black, and he felt like vomiting.
"Fuck, what is this thing?"
"Artificial brain matter." Meng Mingliang laughed. "A decapitation operation isn't that easy. You have to evade the military dogs and create chaos."
"Captain Cheng, find a comrade who is very skilled in counter-invention and can sneak into the camp near the Blue Army Division Headquarters before us."
"Before we attack, have this soldier jump off the mobile tank. If there's no chance to touch the tank, falling from somewhere else will do."
"Remember, change into the blue army's clothes. When you lie on the ground, pour the brains under your head and create as much chaos as possible in the camp. That's when our chance will come."
Listening to Meng Mingliang's narration, Cheng Dong felt a chill on his back.
These are casualties in non-wartime periods, not because of mistakes in exercises, but purely deaths from falls.
Oh my god, this is so scary.
If this is pretended to be real, even the commander would be scared to death, right?
Once discovered, there will be chaos in the Blue Army camp. Low-ranking people will not dare to move the "corpse" at all, and high-ranking people must be present.
That was the best time to attack.
War, any means necessary.
At this moment, Cheng Dong finally understood everything.
The person who fired the flare is really cruel.
"I always thought Xiucai was the darkest, but I didn't expect you guys are even darker than him."
Cheng Dong shook his head, looking emotional.
If he were a cadre of the Blue Army Division, he would be devastated to hear this news.
"hey-hey!"
Meng Mingliang grinned and said, "You really misunderstood. The method of dealing with military dogs was our idea."
"But it was Chen Ying who came up with the idea of causing chaos in the Blue Army camp, removing brains, and pretending to be dead bodies."
"He's been wanting to execute a beheading for a long time. Only Chen Ying could come up with a way to disrupt the enemy's order."
"I've decided that when I return to Xiangjian, I'll publicize this on a large scale. This is a truly amazing idea."
"I"
"What the hell did I bring out?"
Cheng Dong looked up to the sky and sighed.
Is this an idea that a human could come up with?
That's so mean.
"Fuck, are you done? Let's go. Damn it, I suddenly realized how naive I am."
"Hold!"
Cheng Dong yelled and ran to gather the team.
The low-profile version of the "Flying Man" plan was indeed the idea provided by Chen Mo.
However, he doesn't know how to use other things to mix the brain matter, and he needs the help of the person with the whistle to finally find Meng Mingliang.
In order to be able to decapitate the Blue Army Command this time, Chen Mo racked his brains.
Even the entire battalion's mobility speed has been reduced to the lowest at this moment.
The drone's flight range is controlled within a radius of ten kilometers.
He tried to reduce the risk of being exposed as much as possible at this moment, because he knew very well that it would not be easy to get close to the enemy headquarters in a decapitation operation.
Both latent infiltration and lurking infiltration take time.
The distance is dozens of kilometers. Objectively speaking, for the entire battalion to maneuver, it can be reached in an hour.
But for a single soldier to infiltrate, it would be considered good if he could get close within four hours.
So, Chen Mo was not in a hurry.
He commanded the team to move forward slowly. As for whether they could attract firepower for the reconnaissance company in time, it depended on their tacit understanding.
Time passes by little by little.
One hour, two hours.
Until two o'clock in the morning on the 12th, the entire battalion was moving around and stopping. By this time, Chen Mo already knew that the Red Army Division had intervened in the battlefield.
Otherwise, with the Blue Army's control of the southern front, it would be impossible for their army of several hundred people to advance safely for several hours without being discovered.
Although the speed was slow and we were half walking and half resting, that was still the enemy's hinterland.
The Blues are not that unguarded.
It was not until half past two that Chen Mo sat up straight, ready to command the final battle.
He calculated that there were only two hours left until dawn, and the reconnaissance company's decapitation operation would definitely be carried out before dawn.
During this period of time, the entire battalion must divert a large amount of firepower near the Blue Army Division Headquarters.
"Comrades, the time for the decisive battle has arrived!"
The battalion commander's voice rang out uniformly on the Blue Army Battalion's communication radio.
The cadres and soldiers who had been nervous about the battle all the way were no longer nervous at this moment.
No one responded, let alone refuted.
The tanks stopped maneuvering, the infantry sat inside the tanks to check their individual equipment, the artillery checked their ammunition, and the armored soldiers also checked their ammunition.
The cadres who were not injured in the battle quickly got off the vehicle and gathered towards the command vehicle.
The night is still as dark as ever.
The sweltering weather, mixed with the smell of gasoline and sweat, gave the entire scene an extremely bad overall feeling.
But the assembled cadres said nothing.
Everyone looked at Chen Mo who had just gotten out of the car.
"Comrades, after this battle, our cooperation has come to an end."
Chen Mo smiled and said, "Before heading to Huanglongwanggou for training, I held a meeting with everyone and calculated the time for cooperation. Fortunately, I didn't break my promise."
"Tonight is our final battle."
"Currently, the enemy hasn't discovered us, but in order to maximize their attack, the Blue Army has already figured out a way to counter our tactics."
"It's hard for us to gain the upper hand in a surprise attack."
"So, we need to change our tactics."
"Captain Dong."
"arrive!"
Dong Kehao, the captain of the Army Aviation Squadron, responded loudly.
"You will lead our entire battalion, including all our aviation firepower, along the road to our left front, towards the main Blue Army base on the southern front."
"Remember, when attack helicopters fly along the highway, they must fly at ultra-low altitude to avoid the blue army's artillery radar."
"If you discover enemy troops stationed along the way, immediately transmit your location and continue forward."
"Until the entire squadron is completely destroyed."
"Is that clear?"
"clear!"
"Okay, let's go."
Chen Mo waved his hand. It was not far from dawn, and the drone blue army was already on guard. The division headquarters was usually stationed near the highway.
The purpose is to facilitate the transportation of supplies.
Armed helicopters have fast cruising speeds and combat capabilities, so using a squadron to execute kite-flying tactics is just right.
"Comrades, see you at Taishan Base!!"
Dong Kehao raised his hand and saluted the cadres, then turned and left in a dashing manner.
"Captain Wang."
"arrive!"
"Lead a rocket artillery group, leave the battlefield, and wait for news from Deputy Captain Meng. If the reconnaissance company fails to decapitate the enemy, then blow up the Blue Army headquarters from a distance."
"yes!"
"Orders, howitzer unit, rocket launcher unit, as soon as the aviation squadron transmits the coordinates back, immediately launch a long-range attack and completely destroy it."
"Orders: Mechanized infantry and armored units, stay where they are and block the Blue Army's impending retaliation."
"Remember, we are trying to buy time for the decapitation team and attract more enemy forces for them."
"So, when the battle begins, we will fight and retreat at the same time, focusing on breaking the attack."
"Strive to survive until dawn!"
"Is that clear?"
"clear!"
All the remaining cadres roared in low voices.
Chen Mo waved his hand and disbanded the team. The subsequent battle situation was no longer under his control.
Whether the Blue Army Battalion has good or bad luck tonight, it will be completely destroyed. However, if the division headquarters can be eliminated, it will be a good outcome.
Chen Mo returned to the command vehicle, took out a cigarette, lit it, and smoked quietly.
Waiting for the first round of attack.
Half an hour later.
At exactly three o'clock, the first coordinates of the Army Aviation Squadron were transmitted back.
The howitzer group and the rocket launcher group did not care which unit of the Blue Army the opponent was.
The cross-linked satellite positioning system has helped measure the distance, specific coordinates, and even the firing angle based on the vehicle model.
Boom boom boom.
The entire night sky was soon illuminated by howitzers and rocket launchers, with countless shells with long tail flames.
Like a burning charcoal flying into the sky, it was thrown into the Blue Army’s camp.
The division's engineering battalion was caught off guard, and many soldiers were completely eliminated while they were still asleep.
The sound of the explosion was transmitted directly to the Blue Army Division Command.
Wang Songhe, who was originally remotely commanding the main force on the northwest line to maneuver towards the south line to rescue, heard the explosion.
His face tightened.
"What's going on?"
"Where did the explosion come from?"
"Report, judging from the direction, it should be the engineering battalion!"
A staff officer responded quickly.
"Bastard, I'm going to peel off your skin."
When Commander Wang heard this, he knew that the information battalion he had been looking for for a long time had taken action again.
This caracal is really annoying.
"How did the coordinates get revealed? Didn't I tell you to spread out and defend against drone reconnaissance?"
"What are you all doing? A group of people can't deal with a little kid?"
"Lin Yifeng."
"arrive!"
"I don't care what method you use. Find out the coordinates of this information battalion and kill them for me."
"yes!"
After Wang Songhe learned that the engineering battalion had been bombed, he had no intention of commanding the main force on the northwest front and handed over the command task to the chief of staff.
He strode to the door of the command room, looked up at the dark night sky, and vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Having served in the army for many years, he had developed a keen sense of war. He did not think that the information battalion could not find their own base just because they disappeared for more than three hours without any movement.
"Things are going to change."
"With a monster like this emerging from the field army, the old guys will have a hard time in the future."
Wang Songhe sighed.
He roughly guessed that the kid surnamed Chen was targeting himself, or to be more precise, the division headquarters.
Otherwise, there is no reason to explain why the other party did not make any moves for such a long time, but instead suddenly launched an attack near dawn.
"This is to divert the firepower near the headquarters."
Wang Songhe smiled.
However, this smile was somewhat mixed with bitterness.
He clearly knew the other party's purpose, but he had to dispatch troops to stop them.
Because with the information-based reconnaissance capabilities, no matter what he does, this kid dares to poke a hole in the sky.
The most helpless thing is that you clearly guess the opponent's tactical purpose, but you have to jump into it.
Looking at the dark combat zone in the distance, I wonder how many people are hiding there now.
Wang Songhe sighed again and waved his hand.
"Go, arrange for transfer immediately."
"Move headquarters toward the northwest line."
"yes!"
Inside the command center, all staff officers began to get busy. A division command center was forced to move to another location by a battalion.
One can imagine how Commander Wang felt at that time.
No one at the scene dared to persuade anyone, and everyone was busy cleaning up.
But it is not easy to move a large command center, and it took half an hour.
It was almost four o'clock when all the equipment was loaded onto the trucks, and all the staff members evacuated in different directions.
When Wang Songhe got into the car and was about to leave, the combat staff officer Lin Yifeng suddenly ran to the division commander's car with a pale face.
Without even a greeting, he opened the car door and said, "Commander, there's been an accident."
"What's going on? Tell me slowly!" Wang Songhe was a little unhappy.
"Just now, when the tank company ahead was maneuvering, one of the soldiers suddenly fell off the top of the tank, and his head and brains exploded all over the ground."
"What?!!!"
Wang Songhe’s eyes went dark.
He got out of the car quickly, and even his steps seemed a little unsteady.
This is non-wartime damage. Even the military region cannot bear this kind of responsibility, let alone the division.
What's more, the chief of the Kyoto Military Region and the chief of the General Staff are here.
Who can bear this responsibility? ! !
