Chapter 579 War Preparation
Beep beep beep~~
After half an hour of intense pre-war meeting, just as the company commanders of the Second Combined Battalion pushed open the battalion headquarters door and walked out, sharp troop whistles sounded almost simultaneously!
At this moment, all the soldiers in the battalion stopped what they were doing no matter what they were doing. Even those who were taking a shit quickly cut their clothes off, pulled up their pants and ran towards the war preparation depot.
Tap tap tap tap~
The sound of dense footsteps echoed in the building, and teams of soldiers put on their equipment in an orderly manner and ran towards their company's warehouse.
The personnel in each class were divided according to the pre-arranged divisions. Some ran to the armory to get guns and ammunition, some ran to the combat readiness depot to get combat readiness bags containing personal clothes and class chemical defense bags, and some ran to the warehouse to get shovels, pickaxes and other fortification tools.
buzz~
In the direction of the Agricultural College parking lot not far away, the drivers who rushed over from the gymnasium climbed into one after another 04A infantry fighting vehicles, 99A main battle tanks, 05 120mm self-propelled mortars, etc.
Then, amid the roar of violent diesel engines, one tank after another quickly turned on the spot to adjust its direction, raising clouds of smoke and dust, and drove towards the company parking spot outside the stadium that had been planned in advance.
By the time the combat vehicles, tanks, self-propelled artillery, SX2306 transport vehicles, etc. arrived at the designated boarding points, the soldiers from various units had already dressed in their gear, were carrying various types of firearms, and were holding their own and the driver's combat packs, as well as the driver's personal weapons and equipment, and were all gathered in place.
li~
As soon as the vehicle came to a complete stop, the squad leader of a 04A infantry fighting vehicle suddenly opened the steel door at the rear of the vehicle, and with a "bang" it hit the other side, and then hurriedly urged:
“Go, go, go!! Quick, quick, quick!!”
Before he finished speaking, the leading soldier, carrying three camouflage tactical bags, rushed in. The rest of the soldiers, wearing tactical helmets and sweating profusely, quickly followed suit and went into the tank as nimbly as swimming fish.
..
At the same time, Wang Can, who was also fully armed and carrying a QCQ-171 submachine gun on his back, passed through the internal passage of the gymnasium and came to the top of the football field stands.
He habitually picked up the tactical telescope hanging on his chest, and observed with a serious expression the neatly arranged armored military vehicles below and the nearly 700 soldiers of the entire battalion who were boarding the vehicles in an orderly manner like flowing water.
This combat readiness exercise was a temporary decision made by him, the purpose of which was to test the reaction speed of the entire battalion in real wartime and the specific effectiveness of peacetime training.
That is why he made such a big fuss about a short-distance, small-scale recovery war.
zizi~
"Report to the battalion commander, the entire 2nd Armored Infantry Company has boarded the vehicles!"
"Report to the battalion commander, the entire 1nd Armored Infantry Company has boarded the vehicles!"
"Report to the battalion commander, the entire 1st tank company has boarded the vehicles!"
"Report to the battalion commander, the entire artillery company has boarded the vehicle!"
.....
"Report to the battalion commander, the entire logistics support company has boarded the vehicle!"
After listening to the report of the last company of the battalion boarding the vehicle, Wang Can looked up at his tactical watch: 12 minutes and 36 seconds.
It took a total of 12 minutes and 36 seconds for the entire battalion to go from a state of readiness to a state of combat, with all equipment and vehicles started.
"Not bad~" Wang Can nodded with satisfaction.
If it was a little later, he might have considered having everyone restore the equipment and vehicles and pull the truck all over again until he was satisfied.
Anyway, there is plenty of time in the mission, so he has plenty of time to play with the soldiers in the camp.
...
At this moment, on the road west of the gymnasium, the soldiers of the 3rd Squad of the 04st Armored Infantry Company were tightly packed into the slightly cramped cabin of a A Infantry Fighting Vehicle.
At the deepest part of the cabin, there was a pile of slightly messy camouflage combat-readiness bags, making the entire space look extremely crowded and a little suffocating.
After the exercise, the soldiers of squad 3 were all silent, gasping for breath to relieve the sour and bursting feeling in their chests.
Everyone was sweating like they had just been pulled out of the water. Some soldiers were too lazy to wipe their sweat with their hands, so they just let it drip onto the floor of the tank, splashing up wisps of dust.
In this situation, it is hard to imagine that today is deep winter with the temperature only 2 degrees. If you don’t know, you would think it is hot summer.
zizi~
"The battalion commander orders the entire battalion to take a ten-minute break and make a final check to see if the equipment is in order. Anyone who forgot to bring anything should report back and get it!"
When the soldiers in the carriage heard the company commander's voice coming from the squad leader's intercom, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Passed!
They would carry out combat readiness exercises like this almost every week, even if there was no mission. The time and place were not fixed, but the countdown would start when the whistle sounded. If the time was exceeded, they would do it again and again until the battalion commander was satisfied.
You know, such a war preparation exercise is very physically demanding. Even with their physical fitness, they are exhausted after doing it.
Anyway, after Wang Can's troubles during this period of time, many people in the Second Battalion have begun to miss Lu Chong.
Captain Lu’s requirements are a bit high, and his bullying is a bit severe, but isn’t it because we ourselves are not good enough?
At least he won't be like the current battalion commander Wang Can, who always makes people suffer...
This kind of complaint even led to a catchy saying: "My name is Wang Can, and I have nothing to do after eating." The soldiers used this to complain about Wang Can who liked to mess with the troops when he had nothing to do.
...
Ten minutes later, Wang Can sat in the passenger seat of the Mengshi 3 armored command vehicle and issued the order to all units of the Second Combined Battalion to move out.
zizi~
"Attention, whole battalion! Attention, whole battalion! Move out!"
"Mechanical Infantry Company 1 received!"
"Tank Company 2 received!"
"Artillery battery received!"
...
buzz~
After the words fell, the convoy of the Second Combined Battalion, which was neatly arranged on the road west of the gymnasium, began to move slowly, like a river of digital jungle camouflage, flowing towards the north gate of the Night Province Military Region.
Woohoo~
At the north gate, amid the sound of an electric motor, two steel plates about 10 centimeters thick in the doorway slowly moved along the sliding rails on the ground and moved into the wall, revealing a gate leading to the outside of the military zone.
Beep beep~
When the Mengshi III armored command vehicle carrying Battalion Commander Wang Can passed in the middle of the convoy, the driver honked the horn towards the garrison at the city gate to express his gratitude.
After seeing this, the garrison soldier holding the gun in both hands raised the gun slightly and saluted solemnly.
The two roads intersected, and the Second Combined Battalion turned left and headed north out of the city, heading towards the highway intersection near the Ye Province Military Region, intending to take the ring road to bypass the city.
