Chapter 486 The Greatest Affirmation

Not long after.

The old man announced the reward for the heavy synthetic brigade.

As the Hong Kong garrison next year!

The first Hong Kong garrison!

This is definitely a huge reward for the heavy synthetic brigade, and it is also the greatest affirmation and praise for the heavy synthetic brigade!

You must know that this is the first Hong Kong garrison. It is the first time since the establishment of the Republic that the land that was forcibly leased was taken back from the hands of the great powers. This is also the first Chinese troop to land in Hong Kong since the Opium War. This will go down in history!

At the same time, as a symbol of national sovereignty, the Hong Kong garrison is a troop with special tasks and missions. It must not only safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests, and maintain the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong, but also show the world the glorious image of our army as a mighty and civilized army.

The Hong Kong garrison is directly under the Central Military Commission. It is a synthetic force composed of the army, navy, and air force. It has 1 army infantry brigade, 1 naval ship brigade, and 1 air force aviation regiment under its jurisdiction.

Prior to this, the naval fleet had been determined to be led by the destroyer "Xiangjiang", equipped with the frigate "Hong Kong Island", and equipped with 8 Type 022 missile boats, 2 Type 022A torpedo boats, 1 Type 83 minesweeper, and a supply ship.

It can be said that this naval fleet was specially formed. Although it is brand new, its strength is unquestionable.

As for the Hong Kong Garrison Air Force Aviation Corps, it has also been finalized. It is the First Squadron of the 34th Division of the Air Force Aviation Corps. This is a combat collective with many honors. It has undertaken the special aircraft missions of many leaders and participated in the rescue work in the earthquake, the South China flood, and the Greater Khingan Mountains fire house. It was praised by the people in the disaster area as the "heavenly soldiers". It is now equipped with 24 F-14, F15, and F16 fighters, and 6 "Black Hawk helicopters".

The strength of this aviation corps is unquestionable!

The only thing that has not been confirmed so far is the Army Infantry Brigade!

This is also what all the troops are most looking forward to. The ace troops with glorious military history are very jealous.

There are three combined brigades, and they are competing fiercely for this. They train hard at ordinary times. One important goal is to strive to become the first garrison in Hong Kong.

Liu Tao was also surprised. He did not expect the leader to announce the appointment directly at this time. He thought that the various troops would compete and test each other until the end of the year, and finally select the best troops to become the first garrison in Hong Kong.

If he remembers correctly, the first garrison in Hong Kong in the original time and space was finally selected as the 42nd Army 487th Regiment. This unit has a glorious history. Its predecessor was the Red 1st Regiment of the Central Soviet Area during the Agrarian Revolution. It was a team with a glorious history formed by the armed workers and peasants of the Autumn Harvest Uprising in 1927. During the revolutionary struggle period in Jinggangshan and the Central Soviet Area, the regiment participated in the famous battles such as the Autumn Harvest Uprising, the Battle of Chaling, the Attack on Yongxin, and the Five Anti-"Encirclement and Suppression" Campaigns.

The bloody battles of Xiangjiang River and Wujiang River on the Long March, the crossing of Dadu River by 17 warriors, the crossing of snow-capped mountains and grasslands, the four crossings of Chishui River, and the battle of Zhiluo Town are all famous. They made historic and outstanding contributions to the final victory of the Red Army's Long March and the establishment and consolidation of the Shaanxi-Gansu Soviet Area.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the "Red 1st Regiment" was reorganized into the 1st Regiment of the 115th Division. The regiment fought the first battle of Pingxingguan, the night attack on Dalonghua, the battle of Huangtuling, the bloody battle of Langya Mountain..., and fought against the enemy more than a hundred times with outstanding achievements. The "flower of famous generals" of the Japanese army, Lieutenant General Abe Nobuhide, emerged as heroic collectives such as the "Five Heroes of Langya Mountain" and the "Huangtuling Meritorious Artillery Company".

During the War of Liberation, the regiment went to the Northeast battlefield and was organized into the 424th Regiment of the 142nd Division of the 48th Army of the Northeast Field Army. It fought all the way from the Northeast to Jiangxi, liberated Nankang, and returned to Jinggang Mountain and the Central Soviet Area.

Even the soldiers no longer maintained their original standing posture, hugging and celebrating with their comrades around them.

Although the soldiers of the medium and light combined brigades were inevitably a little disappointed, they also gave applause and cheers to the heavy combined brigade at this time.

The three combined brigades are real brother troops, connected by blood.

In the final analysis, they originated from the first heavy combined battalion of that year!

Even the military and political chiefs of the three combined brigades, Li Fuguo and Zhao Guoping, personally served as the brigade commander and political commissar of the heavy combined brigade.

All along, the three combined brigades have regarded the heavy combined brigade as their big brother!

Now that the heavy combined brigade has won this honor, they are naturally happy about it.

After all, the fat water does not flow to outsiders' fields. In the final analysis, it belongs to them, which is much better than this honor falling on other troops.

The old man watched this scene with a smile and did not stop the soldiers from celebrating.

This kind of elite troops regard honor as life, and they are truly capable, dare to fight, and are good at fighting.

To be honest, he had never thought that he was just experimenting back then. Anyway, he didn't need to get money from the army. It didn't matter if he could train well or not. As a result, he built a heavy composite battalion that made a splash in the first battle.

When he later formed a heavy composite brigade, he was just trying it out. You always have to have a dream, what if it comes true? So when others were skeptical or even opposed it, he overcame all objections and allowed Panshan Group to form a heavy composite brigade based on the heavy composite battalion.

You know, this decision was earth-shattering and unconventional.

At that time, everyone believed that the construction of Chinese troops should be towards mechanized troops, which would go through the construction of motorized troops, semi-mechanized troops and finally mechanized troops.

Throughout the process, with China's military strength and the decision to focus on economic construction, the troops needed to be patient, and the military expenditure was destined to be small. It might not be completed in fifty years for China to achieve this goal. Some people were even pessimistic and thought that it would be very good to build a mechanized force in a hundred years.

No one would have thought that the heavy synthetic brigade would be followed by three synthetic brigades, corresponding to the heavy synthetic brigade, the medium synthetic brigade, and the light synthetic brigade. After the three synthetic brigades were built, they could actually exert such great power on the battlefield.

Although the consumption of the three synthetic brigades was far greater than the sum of the other divisions, the results achieved were also extremely brilliant, but there were very few casualties.

This made the old man see the direction of the future construction of the troops, that is, synthesis!

Many of the operations here are novel combat methods, such as informationized operations, such as precision-guided missiles and precision-guided bombs.

Like troops, they can directly communicate over a large area through communication satellites.

Also, through satellites, we can grasp the enemy's dynamics in real time, the movement of organized troops, and almost every move is under the control of the combined brigade.

The more I understand the operations of the three combined brigades, the more shocked I will be.

All the original manuscripts have to be deleted, and these are all rewritten. I have been busy these days and have not kept up with the updates. I will resume updating tomorrow. There will be a total of five chapters today, and three more chapters will be updated next!

Sorry!

Forgive me!
