Chapter 46 The Last Military Salute
Chapter 46 The Last Military Tribute
1979 was an unusual year.
It is unusual not only because of this war, but also because of the beginning of reform. In the countryside, Xiaogang, Fengyang, Anhui received a historic harvest of grain production this year, which led to debate and final recognition. In the spring of this year, a place called Bao'an in Guangdong was drawn in a circle, so Shenzhen became synonymous with reform. In June of that year, the Second Session of the Fifth People's Congress passed the "Sino-Foreign Joint Ventures Operation Law", and the New China established the legality of Sino-Foreign Joint Ventures for the first time in the form of law.
Li Siming was not blind in the training base, but was the calmest observation of the outside world. He was hoping that the spark of reform would turn into a burning flame one day earlier.
Chief Yang was still in the base and was with the special forces on the training ground every day. The sun in August in the South was extremely vicious, but the old man did not wince at all, and Li Siming could not persuade him either. Li Siming understood that this hot training ground reminded the old man of the past, and his long-term life in the agency made him a little tired.
"That Xiaoxia is still determined to change careers?" Chief Yang asked, standing next to the shooting range, he was talking about Xiaodao.
"Yes, we can't persuade him." Li Siming replied.
"The outside world is so wonderful that he can leave back and forth? There is still a bright future waiting for him in the army!" Chief Yang felt a little sad.
"He said the world outside is wonderful, and he would not see the faces in uniform, he would not hear gunfire every day, nor would he think of killing and blood. He could sleep in every day, and then eat breakfast and slowly squeeze into the bus to work, and then get off work quietly after get off work. He said this should be the life he wanted." Li Siming replied, thinking for a while and adding, "He said this is the life of a normal person!"
"What do you mean?"
"I? I respect his choice. I don't want my team members to live in pain all their lives. If the transfer is a good medicine for him, I will give him the medicine."
"Okay, you have the full authority to deal with it, it's a pity! If he has any requests, just ask me, as long as it is reasonable, I will agree." Chief Yang said regretfully.
"Thank you, Chief!"
A jeep was parked at the door, and Xia Tian stood beside him in casual clothes. Li Siming led another nineteen team members to line up in front of him.
"Salute!" Li Siming and his team members raised their right hands to Xia Tian and gave a solemn military salute.
Xia Tian also raised his hand to return the gift, but as soon as he raised his right hand, he realized that he was no longer a soldier. This solemn action was inseparable from him. His right hand was as heavy as a pound, but he finally raised his right hand hard. This was the last military salute of a veteran who joined the army at the age of 17 who still looked very young.
Li Siming had sent veterans to retire more than once in his previous life, but this time was the most unforgettable. The friendship between soldiers was like brothers and sisters. If it were coupled with the friendship between life and death, the relationship was as majestic as a mountain and as deep as a deep blue ocean. He resisted the reluctance in his heart, and he was worried that he would not be able to hold Xia Tian and prevent him from leaving, but he could not. There were still many beautiful lives outside waiting for Xia Tian, Xia Tian was still very young, and he still had a lot of young time waiting for him to squander.
The jeep left and turned a ridge and could no longer see it. Li Siming and his team members stood there for a long time.
"I thought we should be you the first to leave, but I didn't expect it was summer!" Xu Zhiqiang said.
"Why do you think this way?" Li Siming asked in surprise.
"I think so many training subjects are several times more than when we were in Hainan last year. You line up the daily training subjects so tightly and don't go back to Beijing to see them. Why? I'm afraid that in order to get out of here, I will hand over a well-trained special forces to the army, even if you fulfill your obligations?"
"Why are you thinking about these things? Besides, I'm really leaving, are you going to stop me? Xia Tian just left, you can also go to the train station to stop him. You go, go now!" Li Siming said loudly.
"I'm not going to let you go. If you want to leave, do you think everyone knows it? Everyone's heart is like a mirror!"
"How do you know?"
"You said it yourself!"
"I said it myself?"
"Just you said in person at the farewell party held for Xiatian last night. That's right, you are drunk, but the people who drink are talking about the truth!" After Xu Zhiqiang said that, he turned around and entered the camp.
Li Siming stood blankly at the gate of the camp. He didn't expect his plan to make Xu Zhiqiang so angry. The camp was so fierce and the soldiers were flowing, but no one would like a soldier who always wanted to leave the military camp.
But the training continued. Li Siming led the special forces team members to survey and roll in the jungle in Yunnan in the hot summer, and drank snow water in the ice and snow in the northeast in winter. The vast grasslands of Inner Mongolia left their figures, and the Gobi in the northwest also left their footprints. Li Siming also arranged airborne strikes and amphibious landing operations in a targeted manner according to the differences of various types of troops.
Li Siming did his best to build this special forces and worked hard to build this special forces. Seeing this special forces becoming increasingly formed, Li Siming's heart was full of pride, but there was still a trace of sadness in his heart, because the day when this special forces succeeded was the day when he left.
When you sigh that life passes quickly, time flies faster.
Time: 9:30 on September 18, 1981.
Location: A exercise venue in North China.
The exercise of a group of army propaganda officers, tenor Xu Shouxin, was full of military explanation, full of passion and exercise. He introduced the troops participating in the exercise, especially the Wolf-fanged Special Forces participating in the "Red Army" operations, and also introduced the terrain and location, and the exercise preset situation. At the same time, the No. 3 signal flare rose into the air, which indicates the formal beginning of the exercise.
The 4,000 people on the five viewing platforms were silent, and the exercise field was like a no-man's land, waiting for the galloping of golden swords and iron horses.
The "Blue Army" broke through the defensive positions of the "Red Army", took the opportunity to expand the results of the battle, seized the key points of the "Red Army" in the depths, and launched an attack. The fighter planes of the two armies competed for air supremacy in the blue sky. The "Red Army" seemed to be defeated step by step and suffered heavy losses, but in the fierce battle between the two sides, several small troops quietly swam from the "Red Army" side or use the woods to penetrate the positions of the "Blue Army". This is the wolf tooth special forces.
The invisible cluster of electrons was spreading, and the "Blue Army"'s enemy warning radar, artillery radar and guidance radar were confused. The "Red Army" seized this favorable opportunity and maneuvered quickly. The bomber was looking for important targets on the battlefield like a falcon. The attacker followed like a wasp, followed by two aircraft, entered step by step, dived, fired, pulled up, dived, and fired again. Under the instructions of the Wolf Tooth Team members, the ground artillery fire was fired at the target, tens of thousands of cannons at the target. 122 cannons, 130 cannons, and 152 howitzers used heavy hammers of fire and iron to show the power of the God of War. The surface twitched in the crazy-like launch of the 130 rocket launcher group.
The "Blue Army" was in chaos under the ruthless attack of the "Red Army", but they still did not give up and used their powerful mobility to struggle dyingly. At this time, the Wolf Tooth Special Forces once again played their role. One of their reinforcement teams raided the "Blue Army"'s general command center and killed the "Blue Army"'s highest commander. However, the "Blue Army" still did not give up. A backup mobile command post was quickly used and assumed the task of combat command.
The "Blue Army" used large jammers to impose suppressive interference on the communication network of the "Red Army". The "Red Army" wireless team used rapid frequency modification, enabled hidden networks, and forwarded messages to fight the interference. However, the battlefield communication was still interfered, causing the efficiency of the radar and communication system of the "Red Army" to be reduced to an extremely low level, and the battlefield was in a stalemate. The "Blue Army" suffered heavy losses under the firepower of the "Red Army", but the heavy weapons of the "Red Army" also lost their targets, which was something the commander of the "Red Army" did not want to see.
A large military transport aircraft took off into the air and carried out airborne at night. In the dark night, the Wolf Tooth Airborne Team gathered the team members ten kilometers deep behind the enemy and used the protection of the night to march towards suspicious places. When equipped with night vision equipment, the Wolf Tooth Team members felt as if they were in a no-man's realm and used silent pistols to "kill" several patrol "Blue Army". These equipment were equipped with special forces for the first time, and there were only a dozen sets.
Hard work pays off. The Wolf Teeth Team discovered the location of the enemy jammer and immediately sent a signal. Several virtual missiles immediately covered the target location after the Wolf Teeth Team evacuated thirty minutes later. The director's department determined that the "Blue Army" jammer was destroyed. Without the disturbance of the jammer, the "Red Army" counterattack began. The tanks rumbled on the front of several kilometers, pushing flat on the front, and rolling in a row, stacking waves of continuous assaults like platoons. The formation of multiple routes and waves on the wide front fully demonstrated the battle density and attack thickness of the modern war tank attack. The Air Force bombers and striking planes bombed the defensive front of the "Blue Army". The ground artillery fire of the "Red Army" also launched concentrated shooting, and the "Blue Army" position became red, and 50% of the targets in the first wave of attacks had been destroyed.
The Wolf Teeth Special Forces are still moving behind the enemy of the "Blue Army". They either provide target instructions for the "Red Army", attack logistics supplies, or wantonly snipe important targets, attracting a large part of the "Blue Army"'s energy behind them.
In the air, the forces and weapons on the ground attacked the entire line, tearing the "Blue Army"'s defense line into pieces, splitting, encircling and finally annihilated within an hour. The smoke of gunpowder dissipated, and the "Red Army" won.
The next morning, when the commander of the Beijing Military Region boarded the convertible "Red Flag" sedan, as the end of the exercise and the climax of the grand military parade of the three armed forces of the army, navy and air force was about to begin, his heart was not poetic.
This day is the golden autumn of September and the sun is shining.
More than 100,000 exercise troops, tens of thousands of cars, thousands of tanks and war artillery, and hundreds of fighter planes are waiting for the inspection of the Supreme Commander.
Li Siming also participated in this exercise, during which he and his team members completed all tasks successfully. His glory has reached its peak, and his military career should be over, but he participated in this exercise with the joy of success.
And this exercise seemed to be held for his curtain call, bringing an end to his military career.
When Chairman Mao Zedong was parading at Nanyuan Airport before entering Beijing, he was 56 years old. Now the highest leader of the Republic's army waved his hand to greet his soldiers like he did, but he was already 77 years old. This army will be regularized, revolutionized and modernized under the guidance of this respectable old man. This exercise also declares that an army moving towards modernization is about to set off.
