Chapter 21: The Storm Military Exercise
In fact, for Qu Sen, giving lectures to a group of officers with a private rank is quite fulfilling. And he is not unfamiliar with lectures.
Because the use of computers in China was not high two thousand years ago, it was of course difficult to arrange for internships in few places to use. Qusen School every year, nearly half of the interns were sent to the middle school, and the primary school played a guest computer teacher. Qusen's internship period was spent in a middle school.
So after all, Qu Sen, who has had a year of experience in a teacher, is not nervous. Every time he starts the class, he talks endlessly to the curtain.
In fact, the computer part in the officer leveling test is not too difficult, mainly the basic knowledge of computers, basic operations of Word and Excel in Windows systems and office.
However, older officers in the regiment have basically no foundation in computers. Using keyboards is two-finger Zen, and many of them don’t even understand the mouse. Younger officers who have been to military academy also learn the Dos system and WPS office software like Wenshu.
So when a group of officers heard that the leveling was necessary to take the computer exam, the pressure was so great.
In this way, he was busy recovering the lost training progress and teaching the officers in the regiment. Qu Sen's life was busy and soon it was the end of the month.
Qu Sen's second-class merit was approved, and there was also an order that the infantry regiment will participate in a multi-army confrontation exercise between the Central Military Region and the Southern Military Region in July.
On the day the order came out, Liu Yuanchao issued an order to prepare for the entire regiment. For a time, the training intensity of the infantry regiment was increased by several levels. In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in one year, many training subjects that only started in the second half of the year also began training in advance.
The shouts of "Stop running if you don't die!" in the armed off-road are basically the catchphrase of every company and platoon-level cadre. It is common for emergency gatherings to start armed training in the middle of the night.
However, these are nothing. The soldiers were scattered in groups and threw them into the big mountain valley. The most difficult subject was to find a meeting point with the compass and maps within the specified time. The training was started during the day, but fortunately, the groups accidentally met in the mountains, and they were very happy to scare each other when they met and then walked together.
But finding some subjects is painful when they are carried out in the middle of the night, and the staff who formulate training plans are not moral. Just looking for cloudy or moonless days, the midnight one can't see your fingers, and then you are in a completely unfamiliar place.
The eyes of small animals in the mountains are still very bright at night. The flashlight flashes inadvertently, and you may see a pair of green and blue eyes looking at you. The timid warrior is so scared that he can't even move.
Once, Qu Sen and Cui Pingjie got together. The boy accidentally fell into the fire protection in the mountains while running. He was frightened and fucked and couldn't make a sound. Qu Sen ran forward a few steps and couldn't hear the footsteps behind him. When he turned around, he saw that his back was empty, he felt a little scared at that time.
I shone the flashlight everywhere again, and I saw Cui Pingjie showing only one head among the weeds, with a pair of big frightened eyes, and looking at him with his mouth growing up. I was almost scared at that time.
In this kind of training that is difficult and a little joyful, the one-month training time slowly flows to the end.
Just after July 1st, during the day, Liu Yuanchao made the final pre-war mobilization passionately. In the middle of the night, Qu Sen and his comrades boarded the military truck wearing a disguised net in full arms.
After a bumpy day and two nights, Liu Yuanchao led his regiment to the gathering place. After a brief renovation, the soldiers watched the pre-war mobilization meeting of the military region's military exercises on TV. At the beginning of the night, with the director's order at two o'clock, the joint exercise of multi-army arms code-named "Storm" officially began.
At five o'clock in the morning, Liu Yuanchao led the infantry regiment to march all the way, nearly twenty minutes ahead of schedule and immediately ordered the construction of defense and hidden fortifications. One hour and twenty minutes later, the entire infantry regiment was disguised and waiting for the next combat order.
The multi-army joint exercise code-named "Storm" belongs to the Red and Blue confrontation exercise. The Red side takes the 22nd Army of the Central Military Region as the backbone and assembling several technical arms of other troops in the military region.
The Blue side is based on the experimental mixed-band combat division of the Southern Military Region, which was just established for a short time, and has multiple arms, including special combat brigades, mountain combat brigades, tactical missile troops, armored troops, and helicopter troops. There are even military satellites and electronic reconnaissance aircraft to cooperate in combat.
The exercise site is located at the junction of the two provinces and includes a huge area of two cities and three counties. This area has high mountains and hills, as well as terrain densely covered with plains and river networks, which can fully consider the quality of the soldiers of the red and blue sides and the comprehensive performance of many weapons and equipment.
In addition, in order to more accurately count the war damage and the lethality of various weapons in actual combat, the exercise also used a large-scale smoke generator with integrated infrared sensing, vibration and sound wave sensing for the first time, equipped with individual soldiers, all vehicles and large-scale weapons and equipment.
Looking at both sides, the Red side represents the main military structure and combat power under the current situation of our army. Although the Blue side has a much smaller number of people participating in the war, it has gathered the troops with the highest technical level and technological content at this stage.
This exercise is a report after nearly ten years of hard work since the Gulf War in 1991, and it is also an exam. Each unit participating in the exercise showed the highest enthusiasm for fighting, holding back his energy, and waiting for the battle to start.
The Red Army Command, next to the giant sand table marked with the positions of the Red Army troops, Xu Nanguan finished reading the information of the Blue Army participating in the military, and smiled and said to the political commissar with a smile: "Good guy, the Southern Military Region has brought all the money to the house. Is this coming to fight or to exhibit?"
The political commissar also responded with a smile: "That boy Yue Jianjun has been shaking this time. I think he should be making small fuss during the day, and there will definitely be big moves at night."
"Ha, who have we ever been afraid of in the night war?" Xu Nanguan said proudly.
At the same time, in the Blue Operations Command, Yue Jianjun looked at the war zone map spliced with multiple monitors and said to his deputy: "We are not in a hurry. Give our old commander Xu some time to prepare, and we will check their homework later."
The deputy commander laughed: "My old senior is always famous for his good defence. We initiated tests in two places, and the opposite side is always clear."
"Report to the division commander, the satellite has half an hour to enter the window." A civilian officer who is operating the computer reported.
"Please mark the suspicious areas and let the reconnaissance aircraft conduct additional reconnaissance." Yue Jianjun looked at the electronic combat map and issued an order.
The first day after the exercise began slowly passed, and only a few short tentative sexual intercourse occurred between the red and blue sides.
Soon night gradually came.

"Report to the commander of the army, the radio was disturbed." The combat staff suddenly reported in the Red Army command.
"How big is the impact area?" Xu Nanguan turned his attention to the combat staff.
"The enemy has implemented a full-band wireless voltage system on our army, covering almost the entire war zone. There should be no problem with the units that complete digital communications in our army. The troops with old-fashioned communications are greatly affected. However, with wired communications as a supplement, the contact will not be cut off." The combat staff answered immediately.
"Order the seventh regiment to be converted into a camouflage position. After leaving an observation post, the whole regiment rushed to the B5 area to rebuild the defense. The ninth regiment moved closer to the 112th regiment and hidden in the mountainous ridge on the right side of Fengtou Mountain, and the whole regiment remained silent." Xu Nanguan looked at the combat sand table and ordered the two regiments on the front line to transfer positions.
"Yes!" The combat staff immediately went down to convey the order and came back soon: "The commander, the seventh regiment, the ninth regiment have received the order, and the other sixteenth regiment has lost contact!"
"Lost contact?" Xu Nanguan stared at the combat staff with his eyes and suddenly looked at the combat staff.
———
"Captain, the radio is disturbed." The radio team leader suddenly stood up to report.
"Contact the division headquarters by phone, report the situation, and ask for any new orders." The radio was interfered with and was completely within the scope of the plan. Liu Yuanchao was not surprised and calmly ordered.
"Report, the wired phone cannot be connected." The combat staff quickly reported after picking up the phone and dialing.
"Where is the battalion communication below?" Liu Yuanchao asked.
"The battalion communication is normal, and all external telephones have no signal tone." The combat staff quickly answered after a quick test.
"Order the reconnaissance company to send two squads to protect the wire squads to check the line, and then send one squad to contact the 45th Regiment and the Armored Regiment, and another sends a communications squad to contact the division headquarters quickly." Liu Yuanchao's face became serious and gave a series of orders in succession. After the combat staff went down to convey the order, he turned his attention to the combat map on the table again.
Intuition told Liu Yuanchao that the troops should be transferred immediately, but before contacting the howitzer regiment and armored regiment behind, his regiment must not move, because once the battlefield is given up, the two brother troops behind may be exposed at any time.
Once exposed, the howitzer regiment is a living target, and the armored regiment loses its hidden meaning, and thus loses the opportunity in subsequent battles.
