Chapter 1984 Sending out Scouts

In the evening, Liu Fusheng called Zhao Qiu Ming to his residence.

Zhao Qiuming was slightly stunned when he saw him so solemn: "What's wrong? Is there any emergency?"

Liu Fusheng said, "I suddenly thought of a possibility and I plan to discuss it with Brigade Commander Zhao."

Zhao Qiuming smiled and said, "Before we came to Dongrihe, we had already agreed on three rules. You will make all the major decisions. Why are you looking for me to discuss this?"

Liu Fusheng said: "After all, you are the chief officer of the army, and this matter is somewhat contrary to common sense."

Zhao Qiuming finally realized the seriousness of the problem: "Secretary Liu, what's going on?"

Liu Fusheng said: "I have carefully observed that there are only three places suitable for temporary headquarters. The terrain in Dongrihe is very complex. There are many natural villages around, and many people still live normally in this area."

Winter and the exercise grounds are not listed as military restricted areas, but completely simulate the state of a real war.

In a real war, it is impossible to evacuate all the civilians in a certain area before fighting.

This rule was also referred to during the previous simulation exercise of the Guangdong East Military Region. Otherwise, the scene where Sun Hai and others pretended to be migrant workers to steal from the Red Army’s house would not have happened.

Zhao Qiuming had studied many of Dong Rihe's battle examples and immediately asked, "Secretary Liu, are you worried that Wang Zhiguang will use the common people as a cover to secretly sabotage us? I will definitely take strict precautions."

Liu Fusheng said: "Large-scale sabotage is certainly difficult to carry out, but what if the Blue Force sneaks in among the civilians and infiltrates scouts to obtain all kinds of intelligence about our army? Under the current circumstances, it is too difficult to hide our tracks. If the whereabouts of the main force are exposed, I am afraid we will not be able to hold on until the next day and the military exercise will have to end."

Zhao Qiuming said with a sullen face: "Isn't this too exaggerated? No matter how strong the Blue Army is, it is impossible for them to annihilate us overnight!"

Liu Fusheng said: "Our two sides are only engaged in a military contest at the brigade level. The opponent's tactical nuclear weapons can destroy our entire brigade-level unit without any problem."

"Once the location of our headquarters is exposed, we will most likely suffer a devastating blow from the Blue Army on the first day of the war. To put it bluntly, we will be completely wiped out by their tactical nuclear weapons."

"What? You think they're going to just nuke the place?"

Zhao Qiu Ming suddenly took a breath of cold air. After experiencing Dong Rihe's disastrous defeat and the fight with Liu Fusheng, Zhao Qiu Ming knew very well that this situation was absolutely possible.

After all, Liu Fusheng had defeated his opponents twice in a row on the first day of the exercise.

The first time they planted a bomb, they directly blew up the enemy's headquarters, and the second time they relied on a sneak attack and captured the enemy's commander.

Zhao Qiuming asked: "What should we do then?"

Liu Fusheng said: "In order to prevent being wiped out by nuclear bombs, we should withdraw all the scouts."

"Send out scouts now?"

Zhao Qiuming said: "The rules of the exercise are that we can only enter the venue at midnight tomorrow! Sending people now will be against the rules!"

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "The biggest rule of Dongrihe is that there are no rules. If you go to war with the enemy, how can you not collect intelligence on the enemy? Can the enemy wait until a specific time and place to carry out these actions?"

"Besides, this is the Blues' home ground. They must have deployed scouts and spies everywhere in the winter. We are just doing the same job as them. This cannot be considered a violation at all."

Zhao Qiuming thought for a long time, and was finally persuaded by Liu Fusheng: "What is the purpose of our investigation?"

Liu Fusheng said: "We need to fully understand the enemy situation. The biggest threat to the Blue Army now is tactical nuclear weapons and high-end electronic warfare, phased array radar and other equipment. We must cooperate with the scouts and use modern electronic equipment to understand their tactical nuclear weapons positions and troop deployment as soon as possible. Only by doing this can we effectively counterattack."

Zhao Qiuming pondered: "Can we create some false targets, let them attack first, and then we counterattack?"

Liu Fusheng nodded and said, "Okay, while we send out the scouts, we also need to do some camouflage to dazzle the Blue Army's spies."

Zhao Qiuming gave a thumbs up and said, "Great! Secretary Liu is like Zhuge Liang in the world!"

Liu Fusheng sighed and said, "Originally it doesn't have to be so troublesome. Unfortunately, there is no powerful electronic jamming system or networked satellite system yet."

Zhao Qiuming didn't understand: "What? What do electronic interference and networking satellites mean?"

Liu Fusheng waved his hand and said, "Nothing, I was just expressing my feelings casually. What I said are the research and development directions of our army. I believe that in the future we will have more and more advanced weapons and equipment. In that case, we don't have to go through so much trouble to scout everywhere. We can directly find clues through satellites and then eliminate them at a targeted point."

Zhao Qiuming nodded and said, "Yes, our country's technological level is changing with each passing day. In a few decades, perhaps there will be no need for commanders to go to the front line. We can directly carry out long-range strikes, robots will go to the battlefield, and soldiers can shed less blood."

……

While the two were imagining the future, Wang Zhiguang was also holding a pre-war meeting in the Blue Army Command.

At this time, everyone on the Blues side was full of confidence.

Because their brigade commander had secured for them tactical nuclear weapons and all kinds of top-notch equipment from around the world. With these equipment, they believed that they could completely defeat any Red Team.

Only Wang Zhiguang's expression was relatively serious.

"Comrades, although we have upgraded our equipment and possess tactical nuclear weapons, we cannot underestimate our opponents."

The chief of staff laughed and said, "Commander, you are too cautious. Although the Red Army also has tactical nuclear weapons, there is still a big gap between their equipment and ours."

"First, our tactical nuclear weapons are supersonic and are currently almost impossible to intercept. We can strike wherever we want, while their tactical nuclear weapons have to pass through our air defense system. With this balance of power, our advantage is too great."

"Also, our main battle tanks and even individual soldier configurations are much stronger than the Red Army's. Even if we don't use strategy and just push forward, we will definitely win."

After the chief of staff finished speaking, the officers of the Blue Army all laughed, because what he said was all the truth.

Wang Zhiguang shook his head and said, "You are a little too optimistic. I think that the East Guangdong Military Region coming here aggressively is definitely not that simple."

The political commissar of the blue team laughed and said, "The slogans of the Guangdong East Military Region are quite loud, but the data on paper are obvious. And that military advisor Liu Fusheng is quite good at talking big, but his real strength is still to be discussed."

The chief of staff said, "Yes, Liu Fusheng is an amateur after all. He has not received formal military training. Even if he is eloquent and can gain the trust of the headquarters, he is completely clueless about all the details on the battlefield. A single misjudgment will lead to a series of reactions. I believe that this person is definitely not your opponent, brigade commander."
