From the 7th Steel Company to the Synthetic Division

Dmitry of the Blues guessed that communications were being interfered with, and his response was indeed correct.

Sending scouts to the right-wing positions for on-site investigation could indeed solve the problem of the inability to make radio contact, since people are not affected by signal interference.

But Dmitri only thought of one side, forgetting the other.

That is an enemy that can use special interference methods to cut off the entire right flank of the Blue Army, and take down an opponent that is invisible and intangible.

Is there no way to handle the investigation team that is visible and tangible, and that requires driving along the road?
Even a child could figure it out.

This led to Dmitry sitting in the command post, eagerly anticipating the investigation team bringing back the information he wanted, an idea that was destined to be fruitless.

The investigation team had only gone halfway when they encountered the Seventh Steel Battalion charging towards them.

Moreover, they were discovered by the most powerful special operations platoon, which was at the very front of the column and responsible for scouting the march. They were wiped out before they could even react.

Speed ​​is of the essence in warfare, and a quick victory is the goal. A few bursts of bullets from the vehicle-mounted machine gun were enough to turn both the man and the vehicle into smoke.

The area had already been thoroughly scouted by the Special Reconnaissance Company's scouts, confirming that there were no Blue Army units within a three-kilometer radius, so there was no need to worry about being exposed when firing.

The Blue Team investigation team, which was attacked, was completely bewildered by the suddenness of the attack.

Before they could even figure out what was happening, three unfamiliar armored vehicles sped over, blocking their path and forcibly forcing them to a stop.

Then a group of fully armed men in camouflage jumped out of the vehicle and forcibly removed them from it.

Then they removed the car keys, tore off the car radio and took it away, pushed the car to the side of the road in the bushes, and cleared the middle of the road.

Finally, they got back onto the armored personnel carrier, stepped on the gas, and sped away.

The entire process was conducted without any communication with the Blue Team, as if it had been rehearsed hundreds of times, with the movements being incredibly smooth and seamless.

"Is that a special forces unit? That's terrifying." One of the Blue Team members said, still shaken, as he watched the armored vehicle disappear into the distance.

"The five-starred red flag on the vehicle must belong to the Chinese Red Army," another member of the Blue Team guessed.
"Didn't China only have one battalion participating in the exercise? How could there be special forces involved? Are all Chinese battalion-level units equipped with special forces?"

The first Blue team member stared wide-eyed in utter shock; this was something he couldn't comprehend at all.

Special forces are a rare breed in any country, and their training is extremely expensive, making large-scale training impossible.

It is usually quite remarkable for an army group to have special forces.

A battalion?

Two blue team Russians have never heard of this before!

"I heard that all of our right-wing positions have lost contact. It must be related to these Chinese special forces. They are very strong in combat. If they infiltrate the rear, it will definitely cause big trouble. We must notify the command." The second Blue Army soldier said seriously.

“But we’ve already been killed in action. If we contact command again… that would be against the rules, wouldn’t it?” the first Blue Team member hesitated.

"These Chinese special forces soldiers are too arrogant. They left without even controlling the two of us. There are only the two of us here, and no referees from the directing department. Even if we did something, who would know?" the second member of the Blue Team said, thinking himself clever.

“That’s right. Then we should immediately notify headquarters. We must intercept this Chinese special forces.” The first Blue Army soldier said urgently.

As for the exercise rules, they completely forgot about them.

Unfortunately, the two Russian soldiers thought they were very clever, but little did they know that their tricks had been seen through long ago. Chen Jun never believed that the Russians would follow the rules.

Therefore, from the start of this combat exercise, orders were issued to all units of the 7th Steel Battalion.

Once you capture any Blue Army position or unit, don't worry about what happens to the fallen Blue Army soldiers; your priority is to destroy all their communication facilities.

Without communication equipment, it's useless for the Russians to be so uncivilized.

Ever since.

When the two Russian soldiers excitedly ran to the vehicle, wanting to contact command using the onboard communication equipment, the scene inside left them completely dumbfounded.

The car key was removed and it couldn't be started or powered on; the handheld radio used for making calls was also torn away.

Given this level of damage...

Even if they were professional reconnaissance soldiers, they could only watch helplessly in this situation.

Make bricks without straw.

Even if they could reconnect the cut wires, they couldn't conjure a handheld radio out of thin air.

Realizing that the Chinese troops had anticipated this move and had completely blocked their path in advance, the two Russian soldiers from the opposing side were truly impressed.

They could only sit dejectedly in the car that wouldn't start, trying to figure out how to start the car without the key while waiting for the combat exercise to end.

Before the two could even get the car sorted out, an incredibly shocking scene unfolded before them.

"Hoo hoo hoo hoo..."

The dense roar of engines grew louder as it approached.

"what happened?"

The two Russian mechanics were startled and stopped what they were doing, looking to the right of the road.

The first thing that catches the eye is an armored vehicle, completely different from the three armored vehicles in front. These armored vehicles all have thick gun barrels.

One, two, three, four...

Nine armored vehicles equipped with cannons sped past them on the dirt road.

Not a single car stopped to check on the two Blue Team members; they seemed to completely disregard them, speeding past them without a second thought.

The two Blue team players weren't stupid; they immediately realized the reason.

Clearly, these Chinese troops communicate very quickly, achieving truly seamless and real-time communication throughout the entire battalion, with information synchronized across the entire battalion.

This is something the Russian army cannot achieve.

"Is this an infantry fighting vehicle? Or a tank? Or is it also an armored personnel carrier?"

The two Russian soldiers from the Blue Army were like country bumpkins, completely unaware of what these vehicles were for. Today, they truly had their eyes opened.

however.

Nine armored vehicles equipped with cannons sped past, and this was just the beginning.

The convoy that followed was the real climax.

The two Russians were dumbfounded.

The 3rd Armored Infantry Company was at the forefront, and less than three minutes after they passed, the steel torrent of the 7th Steel Battalion followed closely behind.

Composed of the latest Type 96 main battle tanks, two tank companies representing the highest combat capability of Chinese tanks, with more than a dozen tanks speeding past one after another.

The visual impact of so many main battle tanks appearing together is overwhelming.

Even as the dust kicked up engulfed them, the two Russian Blue Army soldiers were still reeling from their shock, watching helplessly as the tank torrent disappeared into the distance.

"This is our rear area. What are the Chinese troops going to do with so many tanks?"

The two Russian soldiers from the Blue Army, having regained their senses, simultaneously had the same question pop into their minds, and for some reason, a chill ran down their spines and straight to the top of their heads.

In fact, both of them had already realized it, but they just couldn't believe it. At this moment, if the two Blue Army soldiers were only frightened by the sudden appearance of the Red Army troops and couldn't believe that so many armored units would appear.

Then the other units of the Seventh Steel Battalion passed by, and they were all armored vehicles of various kinds.

The two Russian players on the Blue Team were truly desperate.

"Not a single truck in sight, just armored vehicles. Is this the legendary fully mechanized force? Is this really the Chinese army? Has China developed to this level? Are you sure it's not a US combined arms battalion?"

The two Russian soldiers, who deep down believed they were more developed and militarily stronger than China, had their perceptions completely overturned at this moment.

The thought that such a fully mechanized force had already entered the rear of the Blue Army was truly puzzling.

Both players on the Blue team had only one thought in their minds—

Finished!

It's all over!

They came from the Blue Army command post, and they knew better than anyone the situation behind the Blue Army's lines at that moment, and how vulnerable it was.

When a group of unarmed logistics units encounter a fully mechanized fighting force.

How horrific would that scene be...?

Neither of the two Blues dared to imagine it!

In fact, neither of the two Blues players dared to imagine it, because they simply couldn't fathom how bloody and violent the scene would be.

If you compare it with a real object, it's like tofu hitting a hammer.

With the entire Special Reconnaissance Company infiltrating behind enemy lines, the 7th Steel Battalion's tactics became like a surgical knife. They no longer needed to search the world for enemy forces; they could simply follow intelligence guidance to precisely strike each enemy unit.

The main objective was to be handled by the 3rd Infantry Company and the Tank Company.

The special operations platoon was responsible for clearing out all the platoon-level logistics units and company-level command posts.

Guided by the precise route of the special reconnaissance company's scouts, the special operations platoon at the forefront was the first to get the meat, and it was a fatty piece of meat at that.

An engineering company located deep behind the Blue Army's lines has essentially completed its initial tasks after laying minefields and clearing obstacles.

Unless ordered by headquarters.

While waiting for their new mission at the camp, they had no idea that the right wing had been completely wiped out by the Seventh Steel Battalion and that a huge crisis had befallen them. They were still leisurely waiting for orders from their superiors at the camp.

Instead of receiving orders from superiors, they were greeted by a pack of ferocious Chinese armored special forces.

After dealing with the sentries on the perimeter, the special operations platoon got out of their vehicles and surrounded the entire camp from the outside. When they saw a group of unarmed Russian soldiers, they realized what was happening.

Wu Liuyi, the platoon leader of the special operations platoon, smiled.

Wu Liuyi, who has a strong personality and is not good at communicating, is not a person who likes to laugh, but the scene in front of him made him unable to hold back.

The difference in combat strength between the two sides is too great; this battle would be far too easy to fight.

It's so simple it's impossible not to laugh!

Compared to the special operations platoon members who looked at each other in bewilderment, seeing a group of unarmed enemies appear in front of them, they couldn't help but want to laugh.

From the perspective of the opposing side, the Blue Army's engineer company is experiencing the exact opposite feelings at this moment.

Can you imagine what it would feel like to be carrying a hoe and shovel, and suddenly surrounded by a group of people with oil smeared on their faces, holding assault rifles, and driving armored vehicles?

The comparison between the two sides can no longer be described as a crushing defeat; it's practically a dimensional reduction attack.

The Russian engineers in the Blue Army's engineering company just wanted to cry.

The two sides were not even in the same league, so what happened next was no surprise: the tall and strong Russian became unusually docile.

The special operations platoon didn't even need to lift a finger; the Russian Blue Army soldiers themselves wisely pulled out the smoke canisters.

"Oh ho, you're quite cooperative."

Wu Liuyi was thoroughly amused by the Russians' actions. Watching hundreds of Russians "committing suicide" being enveloped in white smoke, he immediately moved on to the next step of the procedure.

They searched the camp and smashed every single piece of communication equipment on the ground.

It's normal for there to be some losses during live-fire exercises.

Wu Liuyi believed that the directing department would "understand".

After destroying all of the Blue Army's communication equipment, the special operations platoon, as in previous operations, quickly loaded all its troops into vehicles and drove away.

A group of Blue Army engineers, still smoking, watched the special operations platoon's departing figures, their backs disheveled in the wind.

The referee then reported the situation.

Because communication equipment was destroyed along the way, and the various units of the 7th Steel Battalion were fighting separately at the Blue Army's headquarters, the combat range spread to dozens of kilometers.

Therefore, there was no interference with real-time communication, and the referee's report was transmitted to the director's office without hindrance.

"The Blue Army's direct engineer company in the rear is gone too? The 7th Steel Battalion arrived at the Blue Army's rear so quickly? That's too fast."

Andrei's ability to rise to the rank of Russian general shows he was no inexperienced novice.

But the combat effectiveness displayed by the Chinese army truly overturned his understanding, making him feel a chill run down his spine every time he heard a report.

The exaggerated combat power of the Chinese army made me feel a chill run down my spine and my scalp tingle.

The relationship between China and Russia has always been a peculiar one, sometimes as close as brothers, and at other times almost becoming the greatest enemies.

Because of this complex relationship, the Russian military actually treats China as a hypothetical adversary.

The combat capabilities displayed by the Chinese troops today far exceed the limits of the Russian army's acceptance, which is why Andrei felt a chill down his spine.

The thought that the entire right flank of the Blue Army was silently wiped out, and that the Blue Army command still doesn't know what happened, is truly alarming.

General Andrei had every reason to believe that if the 7th Steel Battalion were to successfully penetrate the Blue Army's rear, it would definitely cause a major upheaval.

The exercise script originally planned by the general directorate will definitely be torn to shreds by the Chinese troops.

What was originally planned as a hard-fought victory turned into a situation where the Red Army failed to capture a single position, while the Chinese Army advanced to the Blue Army's rear and even wiped out the Blue Army's headquarters.

This terrible outcome...

Andrei simply could not accept it.

To avoid this situation, Andrei decided to disregard all pride and take immediate action even if it came to light later.

"Captain Sergei..."

Andrei summoned a young officer and whispered something in his ear.

Upon hearing this, the officer named Sergei's expression changed drastically. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't, and instead gave a salute.

Then he hurriedly ran out. (End of Chapter)
