Chapter 321: Liberation and Final Preparations Before the War
Chen Xin glared at the slipper, "What nonsense, what, how many battalion commanders are there in the kingdom now, how can they become mere ones?" It's just a matter of talking about it here, if you let me know, if you talk nonsense outside, just wait······"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the slipper, "Brother, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please don't say it, okay, just ask you to explain it to me." This matter has been buried in my heart for more than half a year, and it almost became a heart disease. ”
"Alas, you, you're just spoiled, so many years of training in logistics, and you're quite skilled in business, but why is this temperament getting more and more immature. Forget it, let's not talk about it, today, I'll tell you why I transferred you to the combat unit to be a battalion commander.
The 155th artillery battalion where you are now is the first professional army artillery battalion in the kingdom, and at the same time, the artillery battalion you are in is also the battalion with the largest cannon barrel in the kingdom including the navy, you should know all this. ”
"Yes, I know all this, Your Majesty, but, even if it is so good, this is just a battalion-level combat unit, and now, there are at least forty or fifty combat establishments of this level in the kingdom, which is not unusual."
"You, do you know that in my plan, the future army will not be equipped with larger-caliber artillery?"
"I don't know, you haven't said it, but what does this have to do with what we said?"
"Hehe, since it will not be equipped with larger-caliber artillery, then, this caliber is basically the thickest pipe in the army, you say, how should this kind of Zhenguo weapon be used?"
"Well, in this case, the thickest pipe in the army is naturally used as a team directly under the General Staff, as the most powerful fist, or as the general reserve?"
"That's right, as the fist of the kingdom, do you think that these 155 artillery pieces will have only one battalion of formation?"
"Oh, I see, Your Majesty, you are paving the way for me, preparing for me to exercise and exercise, and then, as the commander of the 155th Artillery Corps, which will be at a higher level after the expansion."
"That's what it means, oh my stupid brother, you finally got it."
"Haha······" The slipper smiled awkwardly, "Where did I think so far, it's just that I have been in logistics, and you directly sent me to the combat unit, no one can think of it." ”
"You are wrong again, artillery is a very comprehensive branch of the army, he needs a commander who can do a good job of coordinating all aspects of the work, to coordinate the design of ordnance, front-line observation, battlefield transportation, logistics supply and so on. I put you in the logistics to prepare for today. ”
The slipper was a little moved, Chen Xin, as the eldest brother of their old brothers, took care of everyone everywhere, and he had nothing to say to his youngest brother, at this time, he didn't know what kind of mood to use to face this brother.
The two looked at each other speechlessly, and after being silent for a long time, the slipper regained his composure, "Your Majesty, why do you have so much confidence in this 155 artillery?" actually called it a weapon of the town, will it be too high to think of this kind of weapon? ”
Chen Xin closed his eyes and silently recalled several PLA firepower projection training videos that he had watched in later generations, which were jokingly called "propaganda films of the tax bureau" and "lack of vitality phobia".
The grand occasion of the PLA's more than 13,000 artillery pieces of various colors destroying all targets like a sea of mountains and decays echoed in Chen Xin's mind for a long time, and he could not be forgotten in the slightest.
Suddenly, Chen Xin opened his eyes, stared at the slippery and said seriously, "No, I never think that the power of artillery is exaggerated, even if it is only 20 times the 155 of the body tube now, it is definitely a sharp weapon of the town, not to mention, the 20 times the body tube is just the initial experimental model, and there will be a longer diameter in the future."
In the past few years, in order to save money, when your battalion was training, you used training bullets, which hit the ground, but it was a slightly larger crater, so you didn't feel the power of this kind of artillery, and I can understand your feelings.
However, when the battle officially begins a few days later, you will know what your battalion means in this era.
Do a good job, and when the time comes, you will be glad that you are a Chinese person, and that you have left a far-reaching influence in history. ”
Although he tried his best to imagine, as a native who had just transitioned from cold weapons to gunpowder in the 17th century, his poor imagination really couldn't understand everything Chen Xin said.
However, he trusted Chen Xin just as Chen Xin trusted their group of old brothers, so even if he didn't understand, he nodded firmly at Chen Xin, "I won't let you down." ”
Chen Xin nodded with satisfaction, picked up a small cat that was squeezed out of the stove by the big guy who didn't grab a good position, gently soothed the little guy's injured heart, and continued to ask, "Did the 155 guns of your battalion go ashore?" Every part should be checked, and don't wait until the battle starts to find that there are fewer parts and the artillery can't be fired. ”
"You can rest assured that all the guns have been safely disembarked, and not a single part has been missed."
"So, what about the assembly problem? Is it assembled? ”
"Well, this, for the time being, has not been installed, after all, it is a big guy of more than 9,000 kilograms, and the installation of each component needs to be completed under the guidance of professionals through a large crane, and the speed is really not fast."
Chen Xin sighed, "I also know your difficulties, but you also have to hurry up, today, our scouts have begun to move forward, once the time we are waiting for comes, it will be time for your 155th Artillery Battalion to play a role, and when the time comes, don't drop the chain." ”
"Yes, rest assured, we will be ready before the battle begins."
"By the way, let the forward observation company of your battalion prepare, and from tomorrow, let them follow behind the reconnaissance force and start delineating the coordinates required for artillery on the map, and the observers on the warships of the Navy will also follow you."
"I'll keep an eye on this myself."
"No," Chen Xin shook his head and denied the opinion of the slipper, "You don't need to follow the people from the surveying and mapping department, they have already undergone perfect training in this regard, don't worry."
I transferred you to be the commander of this battalion because of your ability in logistics, and from today onwards, in addition to coordinating the overall work of the artillery battalion, you will have to devote most of your energy to logistical support.
You know, artillery is the god of war in my mind, and if you want to play their best role, you must ensure that there are enough shells to fight.
There are no shells, no matter how big the caliber of the artillery is, it is just a burning stick, a rifle can still fight bayonets, and a cannon of more than 9,000 kilograms can be used as a grinder to smash people! ”
Chen Xin finished his words categorically, and was about to make persistent efforts to pretend to be a wave, but the kittens on the side of the stove, seeing that the guy who was squeezed out was actually held in Chen Xin's arms, one by one, they became jealous again, and rushed over in a swarm, with muddy claws, and kept rubbing on Chen Xin's coat.
Chen Xin looked at his dirty coat helplessly, and suddenly he had no intention of pretending to be X, so he smiled helplessly and shrugged his shoulders at the slipper, "Alas, no way, I'm so popular." ”
The slipper forced a smile, his face turned red, and he hurriedly said goodbye to Chen Xin.
When the slipper got out of the tent, Chen Xin heard the irrepressible laughter outside and erupted as if he was crazy.
Reaching out and tapping the head of an orange cat that had seized the warmest position in his arms, Chen Xin sat back in the chair.
"Adjutant, let the commander of the reconnaissance battalion of the special service regiment come over."
