Chapter 198: Yuan Lang And Railway Take The Bait!
“Captain, quick, look, look at the military report.”
Yuan Lang was really too excited, he even forgot to knock on the door before entering. Seeing the door slightly ajar, he rushed in without shouting report.
“Yo, is the sun rising from the west? What could make you so flustered?”
Tie Lu was reading the documents sent from above, interrupted by Yuan Lang’s rash intrusion, he couldn’t help but squint and smile teasingly.
Yuan Lang’s personal ability was exceptionally outstanding, and his style of action was also very confident and steady.
Such a major lapse in composure was truly the first time.
At least Tie Lu had only seen it once.
“Captain, this isn’t my fault. This accident was just too unexpected, and I dare to guarantee that after you see it, you won’t be much better off than me.”
Yuan Lang strode to the captain’s front and placed several military reports on the table in front of him.
“Oh? Really?”
Tie Lu clearly didn’t believe it at this moment; his eyes didn’t even glance at the military reports.
He first leisurely took out his cigarette case, lit one cigarette from it, then extended the cigarette case toward Yuan Lang, tilting his chin to signal him to take one.
“Here, here, and here, you look first.”
Yuan Lang spread out the three newspapers and pointed out the positions with his finger before taking Tie Lu’s cigarette case, grabbing a cigarette, and sitting opposite.
After lighting the cigarette and taking a puff, Yuan Lang calmed down instead.
His eyes squinted with a smile as he watched Tie Lu, fully prepared for Tie Lu to be stunned by the article’s content after reading it, his expression changing dramatically.
As the most excellent Old A in A Detachment and the strongest company commander, he understood Captain Tie Lu better than anyone.
He was very clear about how great the impact the content of these three articles would have on Tie Lu.
“Military reports are all fluff, they can hype a tiny thing for three days…… Eh?? What does modern special forces mean?”
Tie Lu was originally disdainful and uninterested, planning to just glance over it casually.
But just this one glance at the title instantly hooked his eyes, making him involuntarily start reading the content.
The title alone could grab the eyes; seeing the content was even more incredible.
【Special forces, in the strict sense, have existed from ancient times to the present.
Qin State’s Iron Eagle Warriors, Eastern Han’s Trap Array Camp, etc., are representatives of ancient special forces soldiers; enemy rear martial work teams are equivalent to the pioneers of our army’s special forces soldiers.
The United Kingdom’s SAS Special Air Service created modern special forces soldiers and redefined the special forces model.
In response to the development needs of the era, our army also needs to build its own modern special forces. So how should we build them?
First……】
From just the opening short sentences, Tie Lu was completely drawn in, starting to anticipate what insights the article’s author had on modern special forces.
But after reading the entire first article, although Tie Lu saw brand-new ideas that brightened his eyes.
Many of the related construction points mentioned inside had a very high level of understanding, especially the visions of the future, which were as if he had experienced the future himself.
The realism was extremely strong!
However, this particularly enticing article contained no substantive content, such as how to build special forces, etc.
It opened people’s appetites with aroma but didn’t serve the food on the table.
This made Tie Lu uncomfortable!
Yuan Lang, sitting beside leisurely smoking, saw the familiar expression on Tie Lu’s face and immediately grinned, knowing Tie Lu had fallen into the same trap as him.
Reading it was like not reading it, yet very eager to read more; the frustrating thing was that it stopped there.
All that was left was discomfort.
Tie Lu, hooked and extremely uncomfortable, repeated Yuan Lang’s earlier action and immediately flipped through the other military reports, wanting to find what he desired from them.
To let his extremely craving heart feel slightly better.
After finishing the remaining 《value of counter-terrorism CQB tactical system》 and 《thoughts on special warfare technology》, Tie Lu felt his mentality was about to explode.
Because not only did he not get answers from them, giving his thirsty heart a moment’s relief.
Instead, the content in these two articles was completely different from the first one; it was a brand-new field, and similarly only scratched the surface.
This made Tie Lu, who was already very uncomfortable, even more uncomfortable after reading these two.
It was like having a parched mouth with smoke rising, not only no chance to drink even a drop of water, but then being thrown into the desert to bake under the sun.
That kind of painful discomfort……
Tie Lu wanted to hit someone!
“Which unscrupulous guy wrote these articles, writing half and stopping, what the hell? Isn’t this purely tormenting people? I have to see who it is.”
Tie Lu’s mentality had never exploded like this; he couldn’t hold back and burst into profanity.
Then his gaze turned to the article title.
One look……
Chen Jun!!
“Chen Jun? This kid again, this guy…… I really want to crack open his brain and see how much stuff is hidden in there.”
Tie Lu saw the familiar name again, and his original anger turned into a mix of laughter and exasperation.
From the end of the mountain exercise until now, Tie Lu had been thinking about Chen Jun, always considering what method to use to pull this military genius—who, with his personal ability, had forcibly tied a traditional Red Army unit against the Blue Army—to his command.
He had even discussed it multiple times with Yuan Lang, coming up with several possible ways.
None worked, so he had to give up.
Finally, forced with no other choice, he resorted to being shameless—submitting an application report.
Hoping to use A Detachment’s special status to pressure T Division from the Group Army, or even issue an order to transfer Chen Jun to A Detachment.
Even though Chen Jun didn’t agree at the time and arrogantly said to beat him first.
But as long as there was an order from the Group Army, regardless of whether Chen Jun was willing, as a soldier whose duty is to obey orders, he would have to report to A Detachment.
The result was something Tie Lu never expected……
The pressure couldn’t even reach T Division, because the Group Army sent the application back.
The reason was to comply with modernization reform; the Military Region was preparing a brand-new establishment—combined arms battalion. Chen Jun was the core of this combined arms battalion preparation and temporarily couldn’t be transferred to A Detachment; he had to stay in Seventh Zero Two Regiment to lead the work.
Fine!
Now Tie Lu had no chance at all.
Although A Detachment was under the Capital Military Region’s management and directly under General Staff Headquarters as a special pilot unit, even if just a regimental unit, the Group Army had no way to control it.
But Chen Jun was from the 74th Group Army; to get him, at least the Group Army had to agree.
Otherwise, even if he could move the Capital Military Region, it would still be no go.
Previously, Tie Lu only hated that his soldiers weren’t excellent enough; the more excellent the soldier, the happier he was.
But at this moment, Tie Lu made an exception; he only hated why Chen Jun had to be so excellent, wishing Chen Jun’s ability was a bit worse.
That way, he wouldn’t have to go to such lengths; he could easily bring Chen Jun to A Detachment.
However, this military genius, whom he couldn’t obtain despite exhausting all methods, now unleashed a big move again, publishing three articles in a row.
Strong personal military ability, rich combat experience, capable of commanding regimental-level operations, deeply versed in combined arms tactics……
These alone were perverted enough, enough to make people gasp in admiration.
Unexpectedly, new abilities emerged; he even had insights and knowledge far surpassing others on building and enhancing modern special forces.
Now Tie Lu really couldn’t sit still!
He picked up the documents he had been reading earlier and handed them to Yuan Lang, saying, “These are the documents just sent from above; you can take a good look.”
“Urban counter-terrorism combat?”
Yuan Lang quickly scanned the order and immediately found the key phrase.
“Right!”
Tie Lu frowned and said, “In recent years, KB attack incidents have frequently erupted internationally, each causing extremely bad impacts.
Ordinary security forces have no way to effectively strike against these people.
The leadership has realized the deficiencies in this aspect; we also face many severe challenges and must think of methods in advance to prepare for KB attacks.
And as a pilot unit, this heavy responsibility falls on our A Detachment.
But how to respond to KB attacks, we don’t have much experience; we also can’t obtain combat experience from other countries’ special forces.
If what Chen Jun wrote is real, he truly understands these aspects.
Especially that article on counter-terrorism CQB tactical system; it’s practically tailor-made for our current situation and can allow A Detachment to achieve a zero breakthrough in this area.”
When he said the last sentence, Tie Lu’s eyes became fervent.
Chen Jun really understood Tie Lu!
Tie Lu had one aspect in common with Gao Cheng: for enhancing his unit’s combat effectiveness, he could go all out using any means.
Chen Jun’s strong personal ability moved Tie Lu’s heart.
But if it was just this level, it would only be heart-moving.
But Chen Jun actually understood modern special forces soldiers and could greatly enhance A Detachment’s overall combat capability; that was more than just heart-moving.
To elevate A Detachment’s overall strength, Tie Lu could truly go all out.
And……
He was already thinking about it now!
“Chen Jun is indeed a rare talent; the articles he wrote do have some substance. But does he really understand counter-terrorism combat? He’s only in his early twenties, just graduated from military academy not long ago; these all require experience accumulation. Where did he get the experience?”
Yuan Lang, past his earlier excitement, gradually cooled his head and realized a very key issue, raising it on the spot.
“Who knows?”
Tie Lu laughed and teased, “He did just come out of military academy, but if it were someone else, would you believe they could command a regiment and forcibly tie against the Blue Army? Do you believe he could form a combined arms unit?
You know that base in the Northern Region; it gathers the most elite talents nationwide and is still only in the construction phase.
Aren’t they playing combined arms tactics? Is there any difference from the combined arms company Chen Jun built?
Moreover, he’s already starting to form a combined arms battalion; with his combined arms company’s combat effectiveness that could suppress our Old A, I have no doubt about his combined arms battalion’s combat effectiveness.
A professional base gathering national elites can’t keep up with his progress; this itself is even more unreasonable.”
At Tie Lu’s level, he could know some secrets others didn’t; the currently very mysterious Zhu Rihe was not mysterious to him.
Precisely because he understood the value of combined arms tactics, after learning Chen Jun was building a combined arms battalion, Tie Lu completely gave up on forcibly transferring him with orders.
Because he knew the leaders above understood the value of combined arms tactics better than him and definitely wouldn’t easily move Chen Jun.
This path was dead, so he backed off.
“Makes sense.”
Yuan Lang smiled bitterly helplessly: “Chen Jun this kid really can’t be understood with common sense; he’s unreasonable all over.
If not for his identity and background being thoroughly investigated with absolutely no issues.
Probably……”
The army is a very serious place; on the surface, many things seem calm and peaceful, but actually, many things might happen behind the scenes.
For example, Chen Jun suddenly emerging; on the surface, no one did anything to him.
In reality, investigations targeting Chen Jun had already gone through several rounds, almost checking from his birth to now, even the color of his underpants.
Precisely because Chen Jun had no issues at all, he could still be alive and kicking now.
Highly classified technology abroad, yet a fresh military academy graduate knows it all; it’s indeed hard not to suspect.
Even if Chen Jun gave many reasons, it could only prove he was a genius with extremely high comprehension.
The necessary procedures still had to be followed.
If Chen Jun had ever called anyone abroad or had foreign contacts in that area, he would probably have been invited to the bureau for tea long ago.
“No matter how Chen Jun knows these things, for us, as long as he knows, that’s enough, right?”
Tie Lu grinned, took a puff of his cigarette, slowly exhaled, ended the topic, and turned to the most critical point.
“What we should discuss now is how to make it become A Detachment’s person.”
After speaking, Tie Lu smoked again, his face full of worry.
“Chen Jun now has the Group Army backing him; going hard probably won’t work at all. How about……”
Yuan Lang knocked the ash into the ashtray, a confident smile rising on his face as he said, “I go down personally to talk to him? Maybe he responds to a soft approach?”
“Sigh~”
Tie Lu let out a long sigh: “Now, it seems this is the only path. To get him, we can only try to persuade him.
To increase the success rate of this group, I decide you and I split up.
You go to Steel Seventh Company to talk to him; as long as he’s willing to join A Detachment, no matter what conditions he raises, we must find a way to satisfy them.
If it exceeds our detachment’s capability, I can personally go to the Military Region to figure it out.”
Tie Lu’s expression was serious when speaking, showing he wasn’t joking but truly prepared to go all out to recruit.
Emphasizing that no matter the cost, as long as Chen Jun could be pulled to A Detachment.
“Alright, with your word, it should be no problem.”
Yuan Lang originally wanted to say absolutely no problem, but thinking Chen Jun wasn’t ordinary, his confidence waned, and he took back half the words.
Then he asked, “Then, Captain, what about you?”
“I’ll go chat with my old buddy; Seventh Zero Two Regiment’s Regiment Commander Wang is quite interesting. Hopefully, I can gain something from him.”
Tie Lu wanted to persuade Wang Qing Rui to release the person; though the possibility was low, he still wanted to try.
No choice……
Who made Chen Jun so enticing! So tempting!
In ancient times, Liu Bei visited the thatched cottage three times to invite the military advisor, ultimately creating Shu’s great cause.
Today, for talent, to build a stronger A Detachment, Tie Lu throwing away face and personally going to Seventh Zero Two Regiment—what was that?
……
Captain Tie Lu got hooked by Chen Jun, couldn’t hold back, and prepared a soft approach.
However, these two A Detachment big BOSSes hadn’t even set off from A Detachment yet when a batch of “brand new out of factory” friends arrived at Seventh Zero Two Regiment first.
The Military Region’s dispatched Electronic Reconnaissance Company really arrived on time in early January.
The bus pulled a full four buses.
Behind were trucks carrying several loads of goods.
Because the regiment received notification a day in advance, plus this time all were military academy cadets, equivalent to the entire company composed of officers.
This rare unprecedented event truly caused quite a stir in the regiment.
That was a full company of officers; just thinking about it felt luxurious.
So out of curiosity, most of the regiment’s company commanders ran over to witness this shocking scene they had never seen.
And seeing the warriors getting off the vehicles, all uniformly wearing cadet red cards.
Seeing is believing.
The company commanders who came early to watch gathered at the three windows of the second-floor meeting room of Sixth Company building, starting a heated discussion.
“Wow, incredible, really all cadet soldiers; now Old Guo’s mouth is going to grin sideways.”
Red Third Company’s commander Huang Yang exclaimed first, clear envy in his eyes.
Having all soldiers under him as officers, compared to leading ordinary warriors, definitely looked more imposing and gave more face when going out.
Standing below receiving personnel, Sixth Company’s political instructor Guo Ziming’s mood was even more indescribable.
His face was already blooming with smiles!
“Old Third, wipe your drool; don’t drip it below.” Gao Cheng and Huang Yang were rivals, how could he not tease at this time.
“I’m drooling, aren’t you? Look carefully; this is a full officer company. Not to mention our regiment, even the whole division can’t find a second one. If I could be company commander here, I’d wake up laughing from dreams.”
Third Company Commander Huang Yang was also straightforward, openly expressing his envy.
“Full officer company; Old Guo’s luck is too good.”
“Today I also gained knowledge; turns out after military academy, you still do enlisted service, haha.”
“This isn’t enlisted oh, look, look at what’s on the trucks behind; that’s all high technology, all uniformly equipped with microcomputers. Our company doesn’t have even one; they bring several trucks at once. That’s the gap.”
“Electronic Warfare Company really is extraordinary; with them, our regiment is awesome. Next confrontation with Blue Army, we can definitely beat them until they search everywhere for teeth.”
……
The various company chiefs chattered, discussing the Electronic Warfare Company’s various aspects; their moods were similar to Third Company Commander’s—definitely fake if not envious.
Only Gao Cheng truly wasn’t envious.
Because he didn’t need to; this Electronic Warfare Company instructor was Guo Ziming, and the company commander was parachuted in, not a local from
But after combined arms battalion formation, it would also belong to Gao Cheng.
All his own stuff, no need to rush.
Just as everyone was discussing enthusiastically, suddenly a company commander curiously asked, “Cadet soldiers joining companies usually isn’t it July or August? Why now in January are they coming down?”
Once this question was asked, everyone became curious why it was half a year early.
Everyone looked at each other.
No one knew!
“Old Seven, you have connections; do you know?” Third Company Commander Huang Yang asked Gao Cheng.
“Of course I know.”
With a chance to show off, how could Gao Cheng pass; he said arrogantly, “According to the inside info I got, the Military Region values the Electronic Company highly; half a year ago, they already started training camp.
Don’t look at them just joining the company now; actually, they had already integrated. Now coming to the company, they can quickly form combat effectiveness.”
“Oh, so that’s it.”
Hearing Gao Cheng’s explanation, everyone had sudden enlightenment.
Upstairs the crowd was discussing with great interest; downstairs, the Electronic Warfare Company warriors had finished lining up and reported to Company Commander Wei Tianlei.
This time, a total of sixty-seven people came: sixty-three warriors, one captain company commander, and the remaining three first lieutenant platoon leaders.
Compared to the establishment Chen Jun wrote in the report, there was still a certain gap in numbers.
But it was understandable.
This group started training camp half a year ago, proving that even before the confrontation exercise began half a year ago, the Military Region had decided to assign them to Seventh Zero Two Regiment, disbanding one company to replace it.
In the original drama, it was Steel Seventh Company that was disbanded.
Disbanding the Seventh Armored Reconnaissance Company establishment, changed to Electronic Warfare Company establishment.
And became a regiment direct subordinate unit!
Now under Chen Jun’s influence, Steel Seventh Company was about to expand into a combined arms battalion; the long-prepared Electronic Warfare Company still came down, just became Sixth Company.
Chen Jun’s report was written later; a gap in numbers was normal.
If Chen Jun’s establishment passed the Military Region discussion, after combined arms battalion officially starts preparation, the remaining personnel gap would be filled again.
And with Electronic Warfare Company officially stationed in Seventh Zero Two, it meant combined arms battalion preparation was not far off.
Longer two or three months, shorter one or two months!
