Chapter 547 Don’t be afraid of ten thousand but be prepared for the worst

Leaving Hong Kong, we took a car through the port and entered Pengcheng.

The two ports are very busy. A large amount of daily necessities and raw materials are transported to Hong Kong every day, and some people also go to Hong Kong.

As for the original barbed wire fence in Pengcheng, it has been removed, and only the riverside area is still implementing the border defense policy.

Without a legitimate reason, it is impossible to go to Hong Kong.

And with the integration and strengthening of border defense forces along the river, it is no longer possible to swim to Hong Kong as before.

Now those who can go to Hong Kong are either businessmen, students going to Hong Kong to study, scholars going to Hong Kong for academic visits or academic exchanges, or being sent to Hong Kong by the company.

Through the port, the driver drove directly to the Pengcheng garrison. The entire garrison was heavily guarded, and the sound of military bugles could be heard from afar.

After the inspection of the gate guard, the convoy was able to enter the garrison.

As the representative of the Hong Kong Garrison Army, the Tiger Brigade entered this garrison for training and familiarization.

The construction standard of this military camp is very high, and it will also serve as a training base for the rotating troops of the Hong Kong garrison.

Not long after, Liu Tao met Li Fuguo and Zhao Guoping.

With the Tiger Brigade as the Hong Kong garrison, Li Fuguo and Zhao Guoping served as the military and political chiefs of the Hong Kong garrison, and officially had more military positions.

However, the two are still the military and political chiefs of the Panshan Group Armed Forces, responsible for the work of the Armed Forces. Zhao Guoping also serves as the general manager and party secretary of the China Southern Ordnance Industry Group Corporation.

Because the Hong Kong garrison accepts the guidance of the Yangcheng Military Region, the two also have positions in the Yangcheng Military Region.

It's not that there are no military leaders who suggest that the six synthetic brigades be separated from the Panshan Group and included in the military sequence, but when seeing the construction costs of the six synthetic brigades and the annual expenses after completion, the military leaders will frown and feel bitter.

Because even according to the defense budget proposed by the military this year, about 25 billion yuan, the military can't afford to support six synthetic brigades.

Especially if the six synthetic brigades go to the battlefield, let alone

As a last resort, the six combined brigades still belong to the armed forces of Panshan Group, which is responsible for their construction and management.

Even though the Tiger Brigade was officially announced as a garrison in Hong Kong this year, it is still under the dual jurisdiction of the army and Panshan Group.

Of course, it is announced to the outside world that it is a mechanized mixed brigade of the "Tiger Brigade" belonging to the Chinese army.

The formal organization, tactics, etc. of the combined brigade are currently highly confidential military secrets.

Although the world's major military powers knew that China had such a special force on the battlefield, because China reported that it was a mechanized brigade, the world's major military powers only thought it was a mechanized brigade, but the combat effectiveness of this mechanized brigade was very strong.

"How is it, are the troops adapting to the weather?" Liu Tao asked.

Before, the combined brigade was mainly in the Malong military training base, which is a plateau environment.

But it is different here in Pengcheng. It belongs to the central and southern coastal area of ​​Guangdong Province, with a low latitude and a subtropical marine climate.

Due to the influence of the monsoon, the prevailing southeast wind in summer, monsoon depressions and tropical cyclones are sometimes visited, and it is hot and rainy. The rainy season is from April to September every year, with an annual rainfall of 1,933 mm, which is prone to local floods and short-term thunderstorms and strong winds.

Liu Tao is not worried about the military discipline of the "Hu Ben Brigade", but whether the "Hu Ben Brigade" can adapt to the climate here.

Acclimation has existed since ancient times, and it is still the same now.

"The situation of the soldiers is fine now, but the original veterans have caused some minor troubles." Li Fuguo smiled bitterly, "The new recruits are very dissatisfied and are unwilling to give up their positions."

The Hu Ben Brigade was announced as a garrison in Hong Kong before the three combined brigades were expanded into six combined brigades.

The old soldiers of the original Hu Ben Brigade were proud of this, because this was the honor that the "Hu Ben Brigade" had won with its glorious military exploits, and they were proud of it.

Later, the three combined brigades were expanded into six combined brigades, and the "Hu Ben Brigade" was divided into two, and the other part established another heavy combined brigade.

However, the veterans have always been obsessed with becoming a garrison in Hong Kong, and they have been applying for it since last year's National Day.

Before the Spring Festival, the "Tiger Brigade" was finally established. If it is not full, soldiers with outstanding military exploits will be selected from other combined brigades to supplement it.

This is naturally very disadvantageous for the new recruits of the "Tiger Brigade". The new recruits are very dissatisfied. After all, no one does not want this honor.

Unfortunately, the arms cannot twist the thighs. Facing the veterans with military medals on their chests, the new recruits can only accept this unfairness in the end.

The army is like this, and military exploits are the most important.

"I have been keeping an eye on ideological work and investing the maximum in logistics support work. With these few months of adaptation, I think the soldiers can enter Hong Kong in the best condition." Zhao Guoping said.

As the military and political chief of the armed forces, Li Fuguo is responsible for the military, while Zhao Guoping is responsible for the political work system, mainly responsible for political education, propaganda and agitation.

They all knew that July 1, 1987 was a special day for all of China and the Chinese people around the world. It was a grand ceremony and extremely important, so they all invested a lot of energy and effort.

Moreover, as the military and political leaders of the Hong Kong garrison, they were not only responsible for the "Tiger Brigade", but also a naval brigade and an aviation brigade.

"That's good!" Liu Tao nodded, and then as if he remembered something, he couldn't help asking: "Have you prepared a plan?"

"Yes!" Li Fuguo nodded, and then introduced the plan.

The plan is naturally a military secret.

But it depends on who it is for. For most people, it is a military secret, but for a few people, it is not a military secret.

Liu Tao frowned slightly and said: "Soft!"

"You only prepared for peaceful acceptance, not for military acceptance." Liu Tao said in a deep voice, "You have to prepare a plan for military acceptance."

"No way, the British dare to play tricks?" Li Fuguo said, "Now in Hong Kong, the two sides are still getting along very happily, and the British have not shown any signs of that."

Liu Tao said: "Don't be afraid of ten thousand things, just be afraid of one. You can't just prepare a peaceful acceptance plan. You must prepare a military acceptance plan. You must ensure that Hong Kong returns to the embrace of the motherland on time on July 1, 1987."

Although the British have no such signs now, what if?

Who knows whether the British, who are known for being troublemakers in history, will do something disgusting at a critical moment.

"If the British don't want to be decent, you have to help them be decent!" Liu Tao said in a deep voice.

Zhao Guoping looked thoughtful when he heard this.

He has been to Hong Kong at least once a year in recent years, so he still has some understanding of Hong Kong.

He felt that Liu Tao was right. This kind of thing must not go wrong. It is better to be prepared than to be caught off guard at that time.

"Old buddy, the factory director is right. This matter must be considered carefully, just in case." Zhao Guoping said, "Let's make a plan and report it to the higher-ups."
