"By plane?"
"Or full dress?"
As soon as the staff officer's words came out, monkey yuan and old Qian were just like cats with their tails on. They bounced up from the big stone. As for the tone, they were even more octave.
No way, it was the words of the battalion staff that shocked them. We should know that the order of the superior is not only to make airplanes, but also to emphasize that all the staff should be equipped.
That is to say, except for the personnel, all the equipment, ammunition, fittings, even cooking pots and tents... As long as everything in Xiaoman's camp is loaded into the plane and directly transported away.
If it's just personnel, Xiaoman's battalion will have 700 people, and seven or eight planes will make it through. The key is that there are still a lot of equipment.
Yuan Houzi and Lao Qian would not be like this. After all, the ordinary motorized camp is really motorized camp. It really depends on the train for a long distance, the car for a half-way, and the sole of the foot for a short distance. The biggest firepower is 82mm mortar and 82mm recoilless artillery, with proper light infantry configuration.
However, although the name of the battalion under Xiaoman's command is called motorized battalion, it really does not break away from the typical symbol of motorization, which is wheeled mobility.
However, in the view of senior military insiders such as yuan Houzi and Lao Qian, the battalion under the command of Xiaoman has long been out of the pattern of motorized battalion and stepped into the category of mechanized battalion.
The reason is very simple. The battalion under the command of Xiaoman has long been out of the eight streets of the ordinary motorized battalion in terms of defense, firepower and mobility.
Take the heavy firepower company that is common in motorized battalion for example, the general motorized battalion is equipped with a 100 mm mortar to break the sky, and the number is not too much, because the infantry fighting with sole plates can't carry it.
There are six 120mm mortar howitzers under Xiaoman's command. In addition, there are six 100 mm assault guns that can be used to attack armored targets and short-range support.
Plus four quadruple anti tank missile launchers, this firepower configuration alone, even for the heavy mechanized battalion.
This is just the tip of the iceberg of the battalion's powerful firepower under the command of Xiaoman. Each company is equipped with 14 92 wheeled infantry combat vehicles and 3 ptl-97 100 mm wheeled assault guns.
In addition to the combat units directly under the battalion headquarters and a number of field repair vehicles, logistic support vehicles, medical ambulances and other support vehicles refitted from 92 wheeled infantry combat vehicle platforms, the number of Yingguang combat vehicles under the command of Xiaoman is as high as 92.
If the auxiliary vehicles such as 212 jeeps, Mitsubishi off-road vehicles and 5-ton military transport vehicles are included, the total number of vehicles in Xiaoman's battalion is 128.
The total weight of these vehicles alone is more than 1700 tons.
This does not include guns, ammunition, logistical support and other equipment. If all of them are included, the total tonnage of the battalion under the command of Xiaoman, including personnel, will reach an astonishing 2500 tons.
With such a large carrying capacity, only the 15 stan dard heavy haul military train needed five full trains to complete. As a result, the superior ordered the battalion under the command of Xiaoman to take a plane to the northwest. Not to mention, all the troops had to be fully loaded. That was more than 2500 tons of personnel and equipment. How big a plane would it take? How many big planes like this can be loaded!
Therefore, yuan Houzi and Lao Qian did not envy or delight because Xiaoman wanted to take a plane. Instead, they frowned and worried. After all, they were all professional soldiers, and their thinking was very realistic. Let's not say if there were such a large number of planes. Even if there were, they did not hear that there were such a large number of domestic transport aviation troops.
Because of this, yuan Houzi and Lao Qian's first intuition was whether the battalion staff had misunderstood the orders of their superiors.
To be honest, Xiaoman thinks the same as yuanhouzi and Laoqian. After all, his battalion knows that the personnel and equipment are there. Even if the air transport and the air force are hollowed out, they may not be able to complete it.
So Xiaoman doesn't think all the staff should be equipped, but some of them should be equipped by air.
Therefore, I don't want to talk nonsense and ask the battalion staff directly: "does the superior really order all the staff to be equipped?"
The one who can do it is not a smart man? On hearing his own battalion commander's words, the battalion staff officer quickly replied, "it's absolutely true. If you don't believe it, battalion commander, you can contact your superiors and reconfirm it."
As soon as Xiaoman heard this, he couldn't sit still any more. He jumped off the stone and ran to the camp headquarters. Yuan monkey and Lao Qian looked at each other, but they didn't care about the beer and food. They jumped off the stone and followed him.
When Xiaoman entered the command post, he immediately picked up the phone to get through to the superior. As a result, the superior's reply was the same as that of the battalion staff. It was true that all the staff were airlifted to the northwest. Xiaoman naturally told the superior of his doubts. As a result, the superior's reply was very straightforward: "you ask me, who do I ask? I also want to know what the air force is up to. How can it play so much that it's not afraid to take too big a step and get the egg? "During this period, Tucao has become a routine for Xiaoman's superior. There is no way to make complaints about the configuration of Xiaoman command battalion, but this army is the trump card, sharp knife and heart meat in the superior's hands.
Now that his heart has been poached, it's strange that Xiaoman's superior can feel better.
What make complaints about make complaints about the psychological quality make complaints about the Tucao, but when the Tucao is in Tucao, Xiao man is aware of the importance of his own weight, so he continues to say, "but no matter what the air force is doing, we can cooperate with each other. After all, this large-scale exercise on the southeast coast is no different from the big event period three years ago, and the deterrent force to some forces is not obvious, so we need to make some strong materials. "
Xiaoman's superior is quite right. The nature and purpose of this big exercise along the southeast coast is the same as the big event a few years ago, which is to frighten some restless forces.
However, although the scale of the exercise is large, the overall level of the exercise is not much higher than that of the major events. Because of this, many overseas media have given the same evaluation when interpreting the exercise. That is the heavy burden and long way to go for domestic military modernization.
It's a bit of a euphemism. Some sharp people directly compare the domestic military level with Iraq and Iran during the Iran Iraq war.
Under such circumstances, deterrence is naturally greatly reduced, but it is obviously impossible to achieve the strategic purpose set by the headquarters with such a hasty ending. Therefore, the whole staff of Xiaoman command battalion was airlifted to the northwest.
It's undeniable that military modernization has a long way to go, but it's a bit too much to say that the level is comparable to that of Iraq and Iran during the Iran Iraq war. In this case, let's show our family. Let's see, one of the five major streams is not a false name!
Of course, this will from the headquarters, whether Xiaoman's superior or Xiaoman, is not very clear. Naturally, they can not confirm how the air force operates. They can only imagine each other.
But just as they were talking, there was a roar of engine in the sky. Xiaoman immediately looked out of the window and was stunned by the sight in the sky
