Military career: Starting with a recruitment letter

Chapter 295 The first generation of wild dogs is born. Is it going to take on its old unit?
After the meeting.

Zhang Canshan summoned his bodyguard and arranged for them to go to Taishan Demonstration College to watch the night training.

Qin Quan'an and Sun Zhensheng accompanied him, while Liao Hongjun and Tao Ruichang from the Political Office did not plan to go with him.

They had all returned from a meeting in Kyoto that same day, and after the mechanization strategy meeting, a whole host of things awaited them.

It's impossible for the military region to be without anyone on duty.

While the commander was arranging the vehicles, Chen Mo was also standing outside the auditorium, waiting for Wang Jianyong to drive the battalion's vehicle over to accompany the team.

Throughout the entire time, he seemed rather agitated. He would stand there with his hands on his hips or scratching his head, never settling down for a moment.

Political Instructor Fang Peijun noticed that even the usually calm Battalion Commander Chen had become uneasy. He quietly walked up to Chen Mo and lowered his voice, saying, "The commander wants to see the night training. Should I go to the political department and call the battalion in advance to inform them?"

"What notification?"

Chen Mo paused for a moment, then waved his hand: "We're not afraid of being seen, so we won't notify you."

"Besides, if the training program is notified in advance, the company officers may be nervous and their performance may not be as good as usual."

"Let things be as they are, and just be realistic."

Old Fang was quite unaccustomed to hearing such words as "seek truth from facts" come out of Chen Mo's mouth.

Damn it, you, Battalion Commander Chen, always have the most fancy tricks up your sleeve.

They change their minds so easily; their personality is never stable.

Every time the leader goes on an inspection tour, he's either complaining about being poor or putting on a show for his superiors.

This time, they actually stood up straight.

"Then why are you panicking?" Fang Peijun asked, puzzled.

"I'm not panicking."

Chen Mo put his hands on his hips and glanced in the direction of the commander: "Old Fang, didn't you hear what the commander-in-chief said? The three-month matter is not about disbanding the unit, but about expanding it."

"From a battalion to a regiment, have you heard Lao Wang talk about the Jincheng Demonstration Battalion recently?"

"I've said some things."

Fang Peijun looked up and thought for a moment: "The demonstration battalion in Jincheng is different from ours. It seems that they are not an independent unit, but were built from within the 61st Division. I heard that the drone brigade, electronic warfare brigade, and a company of the radar regiment of the 47th Army under the Jincheng Special Forces have all been transferred to the 61st Division's garrison."

"In terms of scale, the Jincheng Demonstration Battalion is larger than ours, but I don't know the specifics. This is classified information, and only our comrades in the political department know a little about it, which they mentioned in casual conversation."

"Okay, I understand."

Chen Mo nodded.

He has been focusing on training lately and has neglected many things, including asking Wang Jianbin to keep an eye on the situation in Jincheng.

Now, after listening to the instructor's explanation, he can probably understand the system of the Jincheng Demonstration Camp.

As previously speculated, the enemy's size corresponds to auxiliary combat units born under the third phase of mechanization reforms.

The principle is not complicated.

It simply means shifting the focus from supporting the main force divisions of the entire army to supporting a single combat division, enabling a Class A division to possess the capability of information-based warfare.

This kind of demonstration battalion itself has little combat power. If you take it out on its own, Chen Mo and his current battalion could each take on ten of them.

But if such units were equipped with division-level main forces, that would be the most terrifying upgrade in combat power during the third stage of mechanization reform.

It's like giving a tiger wings and installing radar in its head, so that prey within a radius of tens or even hundreds of kilometers can be locked onto by the tiger.

It all depends on whether it wants to hunt.

Other Class A divisions, when faced with this kind of unit, can only passively take a beating.

Even more conveniently, the auxiliary combat information battalion is composed somewhat like the previous blue force battalion, with complete units combined together.

Three months is enough time for them to work together seamlessly.

This year's annual military exercise, a war spanning centuries, is going to be tough.

Chen Mo put his hands behind his back and sighed.

His demeanor was quite flamboyant; it didn't seem like worry, but rather a sense of relief that he had finally met his match.

It is indeed fortunate.

Chen Mo personally still looks forward to competing with his beloved Commander Wang again, to see whether the Jincheng demonstration battalion is more powerful or the Kyoto demonstration battalion is stronger.

If a battalion commander were to lead an entire division, there would be no question of them not admitting defeat.

The two are not comparable.

However, during the annual military exercise, the 61st Division was not the only one on the battlefield; our side also had its own main combat divisions.

The most formidable aspect of information-based and digitally integrated units is not only their own combat capabilities, but also their ability to communicate with neighboring units and seek assistance.

On the battlefield, it all comes down to who moves faster and uses more ruthless tactics.

In order to be promoted from battalion to regiment.

This time, we absolutely have to drag Old Wang out again and give him a good beating.

Old Wang is my benefactor.

drop!
drop!drop!
As Chen Mo was deep in thought, two military vehicles and other military vehicles from the camp were driven over.

During this inspection, the military region did not travel by sedan, but instead chose an off-road military vehicle, which is in line with the old leader's personality.

The car has arrived.

Chen Mo, disregarding his solemn demeanor with his hands behind his back, hurriedly climbed into the passenger seat to lead the team toward Taishan Military Academy.

. . . . . . .

The conference at the military region was not yet completely over.

Inside the West Campus, soldiers from each company were already having dinner in the mess hall, preparing for night training.

Even without the battalion commander, the staff and information command headquarters made proper arrangements for the night training.

Chen Mo chose not to notify in advance.

There are two reasons.

First, it is indeed similar to the reasons he just mentioned. After more than a week of adapting to the training regulations within the battalion, coupled with the fact that the troops are deployed several times a day on average in emergency combat situations, there are no longer any problems with the coordinated mobility of the large forces.

As long as there is no combat and the communication frequency is not increased, there are basically no weaknesses. The entire battalion consists of veterans, and their adaptability is not something to be underestimated.

If the inspection is notified in advance, it can easily put psychological pressure on the officers and also place a great burden on the soldiers. There is no need to notify them in advance.

Just follow the steps.

second.

The demonstration camp is no longer what it used to be.

Yes, it's definitely different from ten days ago.

During these ten days, Wang Jianbin, who came from Xiangjian, had a full break to build an information-based command center, which looked outwardly unchanged.

But the internal changes are incredibly magnificent.

First, the Joint Satellite Positioning System has truly begun to connect to the satellite platform, no longer as before, where due to access restrictions, only partial access was granted within the system to transfer signal sources.

The fully open military satellite and positioning system has pushed the information technology construction of the demonstration battalion to a new level, with communication, positioning, and reconnaissance working in close coordination.

A battalion-level encrypted information network has been basically implemented.

A military satellite inherently possesses secure communication and reconnaissance capabilities.

Of course, simply having access to satellites is not enough to completely transform the overall informatization of the demonstration camp.

What's truly impressive is that the Academy of Military Sciences and the Tsinghua-Peking University Computer Research Group have initiated the project and made initial progress.

The other party upgraded the Joint Satellite Positioning System in less than two months, writing 100,000 lines of code, which caused many researchers to go bald.

The first-generation army command platform—the command system codenamed "Wild Dog"—has finally been unveiled.

The current Wild Dog system can only be considered the first generation, an upgraded version of the cross-linking system. Wild Dog truly showed its power after 02, when Beidou was truly applied to the military, which was when the system was at its most powerful.

That name doesn't sound very good; those military researchers are terrible at naming things.

But this doesn't negate the power of the original Wild Dog system.

This thing will dominate the army command system for the next decade.

In terms of ability, she is certainly far inferior to the Thousand-Hand Guanyin and the War Skull of later generations.

However, by the late 1990s, it was already a mechanized warfare system that was far beyond their reach.

The drone is linked to the Wild Dog system. All the terrain data that has been scouted is written into the computer in real time. Based on the instructions from the battlefield, the system assists the commander in allocating firepower.

It's actually not difficult to understand.

This system is designed to be compatible with the fire control system of the Type 98 main battle tank, and it can manage the firepower of all combat units.

To give a blunt example.

The Wilddog system is somewhat similar to a smart home system, capable of managing lights, televisions, water heaters, and even vacuum cleaners in the home.

The so-called innovations of later generations are utter nonsense.

In 1999, the US had been using Aegis for nearly forty years, and the enemy's level of informatization had long been studied to this extent.

The technology used by the military is not outdated at all; many of the cutting-edge technologies that first came out were prioritized for military applications.

Many technologies that appear advanced to civilians are simply variations of what field troops have already used.

Up to now.

The Kyoto Demonstration Battalion, setting aside combat coordination and scale, has achieved a level of complete informatization.

But not before that.

At best, they are a semi-mechanized, semi-informationized force with information reconnaissance capabilities.

The biggest change is that the battalion's combat units have made a qualitative leap in their battlefield information perception.

To a large extent, it has improved the ability of command at all levels to coordinate and organize individual soldiers and individual combat units.

To put it bluntly, that's the future. Once the demonstration battalion adopts a squad-level scale, the squad commander won't even need to be on the battlefield.

The computer information terminal can be used to view the deployment status of individual soldiers and combat armor on the battlefield. Combined with integrated air-ground reconnaissance methods, it can grasp the enemy's situation, find tactical loopholes, and make optimal force coordination and firepower coordination.

It can precisely strike any weak link in the enemy's military forces on the battlefield.

This is already terrifying.

Well known.

The combat effectiveness of a military unit is composed of three main links: communications, command, and logistics.

If we compare the military to the human body, the three active chains are like the major arteries hidden within the body.

With the help of the Wild Dog Command System, the demonstration battalion can easily find vital strategic points, bleed the enemy forces at minimal cost, paralyze them, and deliver a devastating blow.

Used against mechanized forces, even if the enemy has drones and radar, even if they know in advance that the demonstration battalion is coming, they will have no ability to resist under the same firepower scale.

Pushing the opponent aside without any pressure.

Chen Mo once made a deduction based on the Wild Dog system: if the size of the demonstration battalion's units were proportionally expanded into a demonstration brigade, and he was given a brigade, and then an air force formation with enough sorties.

In a single day, they could crush all the main combat divisions of a military region.

With six brigades of the same size, plus air force support, we can adopt a combined arms and information-based force model to replicate Operation Desert Storm 91.

Destroy a mechanized army of millions.

This is another difference between informatization and integration.

This is also the source of Chen Mo's confidence that he was not worried when he heard that the Jincheng Demonstration Battalion had appeared as an auxiliary combat unit.

Of course, the current demonstration battalion, combined with the Wild Dog system, cannot significantly improve combat effectiveness yet, as the time frame is still short.

But three months later, things were completely different.

When the Kyoto Demonstration Battalion arrives at the battlefield of the annual military exercise, it will absolutely transform into the sharpest blade, cutting through the entire battle situation.

No matter how strong your support skills are, you're still just a junior player.

The old leader has never been optimistic about informatization, and has never visited the demonstration camp even once in all the years since it was established.

It was so difficult to get here.

How could Chen Mo possibly give prior notice? The subtle changes happen in these details.

Even if he doesn't notify them, the old leader will definitely know.

That's the kind of impact and recognition we're looking for.

At 18:45 p.m., while Chen Mo was still at the military region and had not yet returned, the night training at the West Campus had already begun its preparation phase.

Bang bang bang.
Outside the camp, in the vehicle yard, all the streetlights were turned on.

Before the soldiers had assembled and before each company had received any notification, all vehicle terminals were controlled by the information command center, which issued detailed instructions for the complex mountain warfare confrontation.

The entire demonstration battalion was divided into two companies, Team One and Team Two.

Personnel allocation was not rigorous; they were organized according to tank groups. In other words, before all the soldiers boarded the tanks, they had no idea who their enemy was.

Take a tank company as an example.

Before boarding the vehicle, the entire company was as close as one, encouraging each other to take first place and eliminate the other companies.

But after boarding the vehicle and starting the tank, the terminal issued a mission, and the first and second platoons were divided into different formations. The two sides would be enemies during tonight's night training.

Not only do soldiers need to quickly adapt to the role change, but even officers need to modify the friend-or-foe identification mechanism in the shortest possible time.

Quickly get into the new role.

At the same time, based on the requirements of night training, we need to determine whether to engage in an encounter battle or a deep maneuver war.

No matter what the battle is about, it's all part of a pre-planned script by the General Staff and the Information Command.

The two departments will command Team One and Team Two to carry out combat operations. Since the team size cannot be reached in the battalion for the time being, the entire battalion will be divided into two to adapt to the combined arms team combat mode on a small scale.

18 points.

The information command center completes the terminal transmission task.

The battalion's field maintenance and preparation work for night training is also nearing completion.

That's why the demonstration battalion suffers from severe material losses. They practice coordination during the day, are deployed from time to time in case of emergency, and then have to deal with high-intensity combat missions like night training.

The engine oil that was changed on the tanks yesterday must be changed again today, and the water tanks must be filled with water to ensure that all tanks are in the best possible combat condition.

Battlefield maintenance preparation includes cleaning, wiping, inspecting, adjusting, tightening, and troubleshooting all parts of the vehicle, as well as adding lubricating oil and grease, replenishing ammunition, tools, spare parts and accessories, and charging the battery.

All of these tasks need to be prepared in place.

At 19 o'clock in the evening.

A low, mournful horn sounded.

Soldiers from each company, already familiar with night training, did not need to take roll call or line up; they all rushed toward the tanks in squads.

Light the fire.

start up.

Boom! Boom!

The ground began to tremble.

One after another, these colossal machines slowly emerged from the parking lot, leaving tracks on the ground as they weighed tens of tons. Their tracks kicked up mud and dust, propelling them forward with their immense weight.

The dust that had been lying quietly on the ground was shaken into a constant tremor.

The creaking of the steel tracks as they clashed forward created a violent sonic boom that could be clearly heard kilometers away.

On both sides of the road leading out of the West Campus, sergeants holding command flags waved them with serious expressions, directing the heavy equipment to move forward.

The convoy slowly drove out of the campus, and the commanding officers successively regrouped, boarded their vehicles, and left.

As the convoy departed from the gatehouse, all officers and soldiers awaited orders from the command vehicle. They were to be grouped.

Beneath the calm exterior, a seemingly relaxed but actually menacing net has already been laid.

Every member of the combat crew saw everyone as an enemy.

Because this wasn't their first time participating in similar night training, and aside from their first time venturing out of camp where they performed extremely poorly.

They are deployed from time to time for subsequent emergency combat situations, and with the daytime joint training, even a pig should be familiar with it after so many repetitions.

What's more, they were all veterans.

"Notification: All tanks that have received the communication are to be grouped into one team, and the entire team will launch a maneuver attack, making a 180-degree turn."

"Report: A reconnaissance company has withdrawn and is now conducting intensive reconnaissance only within a five-kilometer radius west of the main force."

"Notification: Team Two has detected the spread of the virus."

"Information: Our department has adopted a two-stage logistical support change, which will primarily focus on the entire crew carrying supplies."

"Report: Our tank platoons 3 and 4 have withdrawn from the assault formation and are resupplying the remaining logistics units."

"."

The teams began to split up.

The armored platoons, which had originally moved together and left the camp together, began to disperse and move in different directions.

The formations of Team One and Team Two are also being constantly adjusted.

The night training mission was simultaneously displayed on all command vehicle terminals.

In the first phase, the main armored units of the second team adopted battlefield camouflage tactics, utilizing the surrounding terrain to evade the integrated air-ground reconnaissance of the first team, and provided feedback on training results based on actual conditions.

In the second phase, an armored unit will proactively shrink its reconnaissance range during the maneuver, focusing its control on the area within five kilometers of the western front, while leaving the surrounding battlefield undefended.

In the third phase, the two sides engaged in actual combat. One team, with its core force of infantry and tanks, attacked the logistics units left behind by the second team as soon as possible, and surrounded and attacked the supporting firepower of the second team.

In the fourth phase, both sides launched a tactical assault, aiming to advance 20 kilometers per unit of time.

Night training operations are not a complete battle.

It is simply an adaptive battle based on the terrain, involving reconnaissance, movement, depth, and so on.

It won't be very large in scale, but it will be very difficult.

All cadres are required to follow the requirements of the night training and complete the tasks at each stage. If any team neglects its duties or deviates from the script, the balance will be broken.

Small-scale coordinated operations can easily lead to being wiped out by the enemy.

Night training has officially begun.

Outside the Taishan Sergeant Academy, the tank formation began to shift from a quasi-assault formation to an assault formation. The first and second teams maintained wave-like movements, constantly widening the distance between them.

Dark night.

At the foot of the vast mountain range, countless night lights flashed red. On the boundless land, in less than twenty minutes, the two detachments simultaneously completed the arrangements for the distribution of firepower between the front and rear vehicles, the movement distance, the assault and replacement assault, the formation tightening after the loss of personnel, and the flanking maneuvers in each combat unit.

The relationship between the squad/platoon level and the company-level command is also firmly tied together.

The second team's mission is similar to that of the Blue Army, relying on the advantage of their location, while the first team is similar to that of the Red Army, first conducting reconnaissance, then narrowing down the area, shrinking their formation, and then thrusting their spears directly at the second team.

At 20:15 PM, the two squads that had completed the first and second phases, with their main battle tanks speeding and massive steel collisions, signaled the start of the massacre.

It was at this time.

Chen Mo led the military region's convoy and finally arrived at the outer perimeter of the night training battlefield.

The Jinyang Military Region is not far from Taishan, only about 20 kilometers away.

The problem was that after the conference, Chen Mo was kept behind for a half-day lecture. The leader also had to arrange work for other departments, and there were many things to do, plus dinner in the evening.

We arrived a little late.

However, the timing was just right.

Before the car in front had stopped, Zhang Canshan ordered it to stop and opened the car door.

Looking towards the night training field in the distance.

Because the streetlights provided very limited illumination, the details of the battlefield were not clearly visible to the naked eye.

They could only passively feel the ground shaking.

I could vaguely see dozens of tanks advancing across the undulating land, their engines roaring, making the earth tremble.

The deafening roar of the cannons made my ears ring.

"It's quite lively."

Zhang Canshan smiled and leaned back in the car. His eyes were deep and unfathomable, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Qin Quan'an and Sun Zhensheng got off the car one after the other. They didn't say anything, but were surprised by the scale of the demonstration camp's night training.

To know.

Due to the limited field of vision of mechanized armored vehicles, coupled with darkness and poor visibility, the military region must have clear regulations that all units are not allowed to engage in night combat or night training unless absolutely necessary.

Even during exercises, the directing department has similar regulations.

Although it is not mandatory, precautions need to be strengthened every time the tanks are deployed at night to avoid large-scale collisions.

Even when units conduct night training, the distance between tanks is usually very large, but this demonstration battalion seems to have violated the rules again.

With the leader's car parked, Chen Mo certainly couldn't continue leading the team to the academy.

He hurriedly got out of the car, ran quickly to Zhang Canshan, stood at attention and saluted: "Commander, we can't see the training clearly from here, shall we go to the information command room?"

"It doesn't matter!"

Zhang Canshan shook his head; he was not in a hurry to make a decision.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo was not in a hurry and obediently took two steps back to stand properly.

He knew very well that in the eyes of his old leader, no matter how outstanding or powerful the information technology demonstration battalion was, it was still just a battalion-level unit and could not determine the outcome of the war.

The reason I came here was purely out of concern, and also to resolve the issue of complaints from various units regarding night training.

But since he was already there, Chen Mo couldn't let his old leader not see the power of information technology.

In the previous life, the implementation of informatization came too late. A clear policy was not introduced until 02, and the military region was disbanded in 03. There was not enough time to change a person's mindset.

But it’s only 1999.

Chen Mo was not in a hurry, because during the night training of the demonstration battalion, the staff would monitor the entire outer battlefield, within a radius of 20 kilometers, and track all movements.

Cheng Dong must have found out when I came back.

The leader just got out of the car, and the drones high in the sky had already locked onto him. It won't be long before people from inside the academy come to greet him and bring him equipment that can be viewed.

If you don't have this ability, what's the point of establishing a demonstration camp?

As it turns out, whoever's camp it is knows best.

Chen Mo had only been standing there for less than three minutes when Cheng Dong hurriedly drove over in a command vehicle that had been converted from a transport truck.

"Hello, Chief!!"

Cheng Dong got out of the car, saluted Zhang Canshan and the other two, but he didn't have Chen Mo's guts. He took the initiative to invite the leader to come to the academy for a visit.

Since Lao Cheng himself didn't know why the commander had come, he could only arrange for the accompanying staff officers and members of the electronic warfare unit to simply set up the command terminal inside the command vehicle.

Four NBC (nuclear, biological, chemical) protected military computers were lined up inside the vehicle, providing a clear view of distant combat scenes.

This time, Zhang Canshan did not refuse.

He quickly got into the vehicle, first glancing at the furnishings of the command cabin before looking at the combat footage projected by the drone.

on the screen.

The battle between Team One and Team Two has reached a fever pitch.

Dozens of tanks, scattered within a three-kilometer radius, are engaged in battle, surrounding artillery vehicles.

Boom boom boom!
The Type 98 and Type 85 main battle tanks fired their smoothbore guns with a thunderous roar, the muzzles exploding with flames and white smoke visible to the naked eye spreading out.

time.

The earth was ablaze with fire, and many sections of the targeted blocking line were engulfed in artillery fire.

One team besieged the point to ambush reinforcements, but was met with fierce resistance from the second team.

Countless tanks and infantry fighting vehicles emerged from the flames, and fully armed soldiers, in coordinated infantry-tank formations, launched surprise attacks on a single unit.

It's difficult to distinguish between information technology and mechanization from the screen.

But Zhang Canshan, Qin Quan'an, and even Sun Zhensheng, all three of them were veteran cadres who had led troops.

They sat and watched for a while, their gazes gradually becoming serious.

The two sides clashed on the battlefield, but the area was only three kilometers in radius, with dozens of tanks concentrated there.

Every time the cannons fired, the opposing tanks seemed to have a premonition, either circling around to evade or turning around in advance.

Furthermore, the frontline anti-tank soldiers, without any communication, cooperated extremely closely with each other, and were able to prepare targets in advance.

Following a fixed trajectory, they advance to 300-400 meters, launch a concentrated attack, and then immediately retreat.

They watched as the main battle tank group constantly maneuvered and maneuvered, changing from horizontal to vertical lines, and their tactics changed continuously.

The battle losses were pitifully small.

It is completely inconsistent with the theory of mechanized warfare. Whether it is the alternating lines of attack of tanks or the defensive lines drawn up by mechanized infantry against armored attacks, they are not deployed according to the standard position.

And yet, they still managed to have such a lively fight.

Zhang Canshan was quite surprised by what he saw. He could tell that the demonstration battalion was not fighting randomly, and that the two detachments were cooperating closely. They couldn't figure out the strategy on their own.

Once a third assault unit appears.

If they join the battlefield using mechanized tactics, they will probably be wiped out by these two mobile squads very quickly.

After observing for so long, Zhang Canshan had figured out that the reason the two teams kept changing formations was because the other side could always find the weaknesses in their formation in the shortest amount of time.

Therefore, targeted measures can be taken.

This is night training. No matter how high the quality or how much experience the commander has, he can't always accurately find the weaknesses in the enemy's formation, right?
"How is this going?"

Zhang Canshan looked puzzled and pointed to the screen.

If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't have understood the meaning behind the commander's words so quickly, but Chen Mo had served as a confidential secretary to his old leader for several years, and as the commander of the demonstration battalion, he naturally reacted immediately.

He sat down next to him and grinned, saying, "Commander, these are all Wild Dog systems assisting in command."

"Stray dogs?!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Canshan, Liao Hongjun, and Sun Zhensheng were all stunned by the name.

"Yes, sir. The Wild Dog system is the first army command system developed by the Academy of Military Sciences and Tsinghua and Peking Universities."

"Simply put, when this system is equipped in informationized forces, it can quickly analyze the enemy's weaknesses and allocate friendly firepower based on the battlefield situation reported by drones."

"The commanding officers only need to make slight adjustments to react as quickly as possible."

"Night training is just for practicing coordination, not for real combat."

"So, does that mean it's just two wild dogs fighting?" Old Sun asked with a chuckle, finding it intriguing.

However, his disrespectful remarks about his age were silenced by a glare from Zhang Canshan.

"interesting."

Zhang Canshan stared at the screen for a while before speaking, "Major Chen."

"To!"

"With your battalion's current combat strength, how long can you hold out against the 3rd Regiment of the 188th Division?"

"One hour," Chen Mo answered without hesitation.

However, after answering, he felt it was inappropriate and added, "If the combat range is small, reduced to within a radius of thirty kilometers, and the enemy doesn't run away..."

"It should only take thirty minutes at most."

The other party isn't running away?!
Even though Zhang Canshan was usually calm and collected, he was still a little taken aback after hearing Chen Mo's response.

At first, he thought that the hour he mentioned meant that the demonstration camp could remain undefeated for an hour.

So, in that one hour, they wiped out an entire main force regiment of the enemy's 188th Division?

However, being the commander-in-chief, he did not show it despite being deeply shocked.

"Are you that confident?" Zhang Canshan frowned.

"Yes, Chief!"

"The 3rd Regiment of the 188th Division is a mechanized infantry regiment. The most capable thing the whole regiment can offer is the Type 63 armored vehicle and its matching heavy machine gun."

“A regiment of 1600 people would not have a chance to get close to our demonstration battalion, let alone conduct reconnaissance.”

"What about the 7th Armored Brigade?" Zhang Canshan asked again.

He really didn't understand information technology. In the past, Chief of Staff Qin had been in charge of all the work of the demonstration battalion, and he rarely asked about it.

Today, I was somewhat shocked.

Often, changing one's mindset isn't difficult; simply seeing some actual combat data is enough.

"report!"

"The 7th Armored Brigade consists of four tank battalions, one artillery battalion, one mechanized infantry battalion, and one logistics battalion. In addition to other directly subordinate units, if the battlefield area is large enough, we can win."

"If the battlefield area is small, the 7th Armored Brigade will win."

Chen Mo's words were spoken with great force and conviction.

But at the same time, it also left the three old men watching the battle completely bewildered.

One battalion dares to challenge an entire brigade.

Who can believe it?
Zhang Canshan took a deep breath, glanced at the screen again, and said after a long while, "Your demonstration camp has been established for quite some time now."

"This time they've made a mess of things again, and they have to give the other units a reasonable explanation."

"The logistical resources are heavily skewed towards this area, and this is where the problem lies."

"Perfect, let's test the results of the recent reforms in each unit."

Zhang Canshan made the final decision.

Chen Mo, sitting next to him, was somewhat dumbfounded.

I rub!

What do you mean?
This is like sending a demonstration battalion to challenge the 7th Armored Brigade, which is their old unit.

My beloved family and friends, my good comrades-in-arms are all there. How the hell am I supposed to fight them?
Chen Mo was completely bewildered.

Even Cheng Dong, standing outside the car, trembled slightly as he listened.

So all that hard work I put into training this demonstration battalion was just to take it back to my old unit?
Losing the battle would be a disgrace to the chief of staff.

If we win, when we see Commander Wei again, he'll strangle us!

What the hell.

I always know that following a scholar will never lead to anything good!
Cheng Dong wailed inwardly, praying that the commander-in-chief would not arrange for an attack on the Seventh Brigade.

Otherwise, who knows if that bastard Xiucai will have a hard time in the future.

That guy is a repeat offender; there are very few units in the entire army that want to see him.

But I can't do it myself.

I, Lao Cheng, am a very honest person.
