Chapter 254: Conquers The Whole Regiment, Modern-day Zhuge Liang!
The Special Operations Platoon sent the location themselves, the main combat companies of the Combined Arms Battalion were all dispatched, and the early progress of the rescue plan was also very smooth.
There were no major issues at each stage; how did the Special Operations Platoon suddenly disappear?
Regiment Commander Wang was truly confused.
He realized his brain was no longer sufficient; he thought for a long time but couldn’t figure out what had happened, let alone fully understand the cause and effect.
However, when his gaze unintentionally swept over Chen Jun and he saw the slight upward curve of Chen Jun’s lips.
Regiment Commander Wang was stunned for a moment.
Chen Jun’s calm, smiling expression was clearly out of place with the entire Regiment Headquarters’ atmosphere. Coupled with Regiment Commander Wang’s understanding of Chen Jun.
Regiment Commander Wang’s eyes lit up, and he suddenly understood.
“You sly dog, Chen Jun, you tricked us so badly.”
Regiment Commander Wang, having realized, secretly cursed with a smile. His mood immediately did a one hundred and eighty-degree reversal, and with a beaming smile, he loudly asked Chen Jun, “Well now, Staff Officer Chen, you really know how to keep secrets.
You’re not only tricking the Red Army but also your own people. You kept us in the dark, how much longer were you planning to keep us in the dark?
This sudden disappearance of the Special Operations Platoon is definitely a trick you played behind the scenes. You’re a cunning one, where did you actually hide them? Aren’t you going to tell us?”
Regiment Commander Wang’s words came very suddenly, and each word was like a grenade.
All put together, they were a thunderous explosion.
Boom.
Everyone in the entire Regiment Headquarters was blown away.
This news was too explosive, stirring everyone’s nerves uncontrollably, and all eyes turned to Chen Jun.
Various information and data about Chen Jun began flashing before everyone’s eyes like a carousel.
Some were still confused.
They still couldn’t figure out by what method Chen Jun managed to make such a large Special Operations Platoon disappear without a trace under the Blue Army’s heavy encirclement.
Some people already had a thoughtful look in their eyes.
Chen Jun was best at thinking outside the box, and his playing style was famously unpredictable; even the formidable “Old A” had suffered repeated setbacks at Chen Jun’s hands.
Making a Special Operations Platoon disappear out of thin air was indeed something Chen Jun could do.
As for those who still had absolute trust in Chen Jun’s strength, their thoughts became simpler and more direct; they were certain that Chen Jun was up to something big again.
Their eyes instantly burst with dazzling excitement, all focused on Chen Jun.
“The Special Operations Platoon?”
Becoming the most eye-catching focus of the whole audience, Chen Jun remained calm.
A faint hint of humor curved his lips. He raised his wrist to check the time, not revealing the truth directly but choosing to continue the suspense, saying, “Regimental Commander, you will have your answer within three minutes.”
Chen Jun had not communicated with the Special Operations Platoon; he had only arranged a complete set of tactics for them.
He actually didn’t know where the Special Operations Platoon was specifically. He could only estimate based on time, and predicting that it could be compressed within three minutes was already the limit.
“Three minutes?”
Regiment Commander Wang and the other cadres in the regiment assumed that the Special Operations Platoon would send back news within three minutes, and they all waited with anticipation.
However, it didn’t even take three minutes; it was only a little over one minute.
“Report.”
Someone outside the tent shouted loudly.
“Good heavens, they’re back so quickly, even faster than I estimated.”
Upon hearing the report, the smile on Chen Jun’s face deepened.
The speaker’s voice was very loud and carried an irrepressible excitement and pride; it was easy to tell that the voice belonged to Tuo Yonggang.
Thinking that he was about to “blow the whole audience away,” Chen Jun was actually a little impatient to see Regiment Commander Wang’s surprised expression.
So, he immediately said loudly, “Enter.”
“Yes!”
Actions followed words.
As soon as the reply came, Tuo Yonggang lifted the tent and strode in.
His face was flushed, and his clothes were soaked, indicating that he had rushed back a long way. He was breathing rapidly and heavily, but his posture was straight, and his slightly raised chin exuded pride.
“Snap~”
He snapped to attention and saluted, crisp and decisive.
Tuo Yonggang’s gaze was fixed on Chen Jun, and he loudly reported to his direct superior, “Report, Company Commander, the Special Operations Platoon has completed the mission, eliminated the enemy command post, captured the enemy battle flag, and all personnel are zero casualties. Please give your orders, Company Commander.”
It was no wonder Tuo Yonggang exuded pride; his words contained irrepressible excitement and emotion.
Leading only a platoon of troops deep into the rear of a regiment, he accomplished two major feats: eliminating the enemy command post and capturing the enemy battle flag.
The most impressive part was accomplishing such a significant task with absolutely zero casualties.
This was not just strong.
It was monstrously strong.
Such a glorious battle record, presented to anyone, would make them stand ten centimeters taller. Not looking down on people with their nostrils already showed considerable modesty.
Unfortunately.
The subsequent words spoken by Tuo Yonggang were completely ignored by everyone in the Red Army Headquarters.
It wasn’t that they didn’t care about such a fierce battle record, but their attention had long been diverted. The moment the Special Operations Platoon entered, they had lost their composure.
They had just been wondering how the Special Operations Platoon disappeared, and suddenly, they were standing alive and well before their eyes.
This was simply too incredible.
If the sudden disappearance of the Special Operations Platoon was like hailstones suddenly falling from a clear sky on a scorching day, leaving everyone dazed and disoriented.
Then the sudden, traceless disappearance of the Special Operations Platoon, and their abrupt reappearance at the Regiment Command Post.
It’s like a hailstorm, not ice pellets formed from water, but iron lumps forged from steel.
The impact it would have on the Red Army Regiment Headquarters could be imagined to be so fierce.
“You’re back?”
“Huh?? Huh （ Loudly ）????”
“How… how did you get back?? Are you performing magic? A vanishing act?”
…
Inside the command post, from Regiment Commander Wang down to the staff officers, everyone had a big question mark over their head, unable to comprehend what had happened in the middle.
This is truly unbelievable!
Before, it was always a joke that my brain wasn’t enough, but now I really feel like my brain isn’t enough.
Seeing everyone staring blankly, Chen Jun’s mouth couldn’t help but curve upwards. He deliberately said loudly, teasing, “Regiment Commander, you wanted to know where they were, right? Are you satisfied with this answer now?”
70 Chen Jun is tall and large, with a resonant voice like a thunderous bell.
He deliberately raised his voice to a roar, which, to everyone’s ears, sounded like thunder, booming and shaking, jolting everyone out of their stupor.
“It’s good that you’re back, it’s really good! I am very satisfied with this answer. As expected of the All-Army Special Operations Platoon, your strength is truly extraordinary. This battle was fought beautifully, bringing great honor to our Seventh Hundred and Second Regiment. After the exercise concludes, I will definitely go to the division to request commendations for you, haha.”
Regiment Commander Wang laughed heartily with joy, his happiness evident on his face.
Regiment Commander Wang seemed to have opened the floodgates; just as he finished speaking, the other cadres from the Regiment Headquarters began to praise him without reservation.
“I dare say that the Special Operations Platoon’s performance today was absolutely capable of being the bravest among the troops.”
“Special Operations Platoon, a platoon specializing in special combat. I hadn’t fully understood it before. Today, I finally grasped what ‘appearing and disappearing like ghosts’ truly means.”
“Staff Officer Chen is amazing. Whatever he does, he succeeds. He’s simply the lucky star of our Seventh Hundred and Second Regiment.”
“The combat effectiveness of the special operations platoon is so excellent, it is a great fortune for our Seventh Hundred and Second Regiment, and the combat effectiveness can definitely be improved by a level.”
…
The cadres in the regiment started showering him with praise, with a continuous stream of compliments.
Tuo Yonggang, who was already fond of ‘face’, felt this overwhelming sense of admiration from everyone, and his bones felt lighter by a few ounces.
He was even more fortunate to have made the decision to follow Chen Jun to the Seventh Hundred and Second Regiment to develop the combined arms battalion.
It’s definitely the most correct decision in life!
Regiment Commander Wang and the others had praised him enough and he impatiently asked, “Come, come, Staff Officer Chen, don’t keep us in suspense any longer. Quickly tell everyone, how exactly did you achieve this?
“Weren’t the special operations platoon blocked from the front and pursued from behind? Both regiments were circling them, so how… how did they suddenly appear here?”
The question that Regiment Commander Wang asked was also the point that everyone present was most curious about.
“My strategy is actually very simple. Simply put, it’s a swap of attributes for the ‘Secretly Cross the Sea by Camouflage’ tactic, turning this offensive plan into a retreat plan. As for the specific execution…”
Chen Jun no longer continued speaking, but instead looked towards Tuo Yonggang and said with a smile: “The person involved is right here, let him restore the real situation for everyone.”
After speaking, Chen Jun specifically said to Tuo Yonggang, “Everyone is very curious, you tell us.”
“Yes!”
Tuo Yonggang received the order issued by Chen Jun and immediately spoke eloquently, saying, “The entire decapitation and flag capture operation plan was personally formulated by the Company Commander.
Long before the exercise officially began, he had already assigned it to our Special Operations Platoon.
……”
Tuo Yonggang first began the first half of the plan, which was how to get away from the camera lens and the referee, to silently begin infiltrating the Blue Army.
To approach the Blue Army Command Post later and how to destroy the Command Post, and so on.
The general content and execution of the entire process were reported to the leaders present.
Regiment Commander Wang and other regimental cadres, who had become audience members, couldn’t control their emotions during the listening process, and couldn’t help but repeatedly exclaim in various ways.
Couldn’t help but admire the execution capability of the Special Operations Platoon, their formidable overall combat quality.
And dare to have the courage to go deep into the enemy rear alone!
And when they heard that the Blue Army Command Post was decapitated in ten seconds, eliminating all the high-ranking cadres of the entire Blue Army, it sent the cadres of the Seventh Hundred and Second Regiment into a frenzy, pushing the overall atmosphere to a new height.
Each of them was so excited their faces turned red, as if they had participated themselves.
However.
At this moment, it’s like listening to a satisfying drama. Everyone is part of the Red Army and feels empathetic. Hearing about the annihilation of the Blue Army Command Post feels very satisfying.
Actually, the biggest curiosity and anticipation in my heart is how the special operations platoon slipped away.
Grabbing things is easy.
As long as one has hands and feet and is a normal person, they can complete this step.
You take a hammer and run into a gold shop, then you bang around a bunch while praising it, and the gold items inside the counter can be easily snatched.
But the gold in your hand at this time cannot yet be called yours.
Once the police car arrives, everything is useless.
How to successfully take away the snatched items without being caught by the police, and how to turn the gold into one’s own money, are the most important key steps.
The Special Operations Platoon decapitated the enemy’s command post, and taking the battle flag is the same reasoning.
And under the operation of the detestable director, if the development had followed the normal storyline, the Special Operations Platoon would have been annihilated.
It’s impossible to bring back the battle flag, and even more impossible to complete the mission with zero casualties.
The reason the special operations platoon was able to complete the mission was like jumping out of the three realms and not being in the five elements, suddenly returning to the Blue Army Command Post.
According to what Tuo Yonggang recounted with admiration, Regiment Commander Wang and others finally learned the truth.
It turned out Chen Jun had predicted from the start that, based on his decades of military career, he was thoroughly familiar with the special position of a director.
The director will definitely make it difficult for the Red Army!
It’s not that the director has an opinion of the Red Army, but rather that the director’s existence is to target strong teams and make them even stronger.
There will be no case of being unable to advance due to the exercise not providing opponents, leading to self-imposed stagnation in strength.
Therefore, Chen Jun anticipated the director and included the director’s potential reactions in his plan in advance, then formulated a plan that combined “Deceive the Heavens to Cross the Sea” with “Secretly move troops from a granary.”
Let the special operations platoon, after obtaining the main battle flag, intentionally report incorrect coordinates to the Red Army Headquarters to mislead the Red Army support troops into the wrong direction.
Everyone on our side was taken into account.
As long as he deceives his own people along with the enemy, Chen Jun believes he can definitely deceive the Blue Army.
Facts prove it.
Chen Jun’s calculation was correct.
As the Red Army advanced in the wrong direction, the Blue Army was also misled and rushed in the wrong direction, with the two troops fighting each other around phantom enemies.
The Special Operations Platoon, which deliberately reported false coordinates, seized this opportunity to easily break free.
Full horsepower straight to position 236.
This position was also predicted in advance. Chen Jun was sure that once the Red Army’s frontline was broken by the Blue Army, a large number of Red Army units would go to support the special operations platoon.
The Blue Army’s early combat operations were severely depleted by the Combined Arms Battalion, and there will definitely be a troop shortage then.
On position 236, located on the leftmost flank of the Blue Army frontline, the defending troops are engaging and annihilating the Red Army’s support and infiltration units in order to reinforce friendly forces.
They will definitely fall back to the middle.
Completely vacate this position in the border area, which is not strategically important, making it an undefended place.
When the Special Operations Platoon easily arrived at the 236 Position, it once again proved Chen Jun’s brilliant strategy.
He calculated it correctly again!
This position was already empty, with no Blue Army personnel defending the Blue Army position. The Special Operations Platoon easily passed through and reported directly to the Regiment Headquarters.
That’s why the current scene has appeared.
The disappeared Special Operations Platoon suddenly appeared at the Command Post.
After listening to Tuo Yonggang’s verbal account of the entire process, the cadres of the Seventh Hundred and Second Regiment expressed their absolute recognition and affirmation of the Special Operations Platoon’s combat effectiveness.
On this foundation, what is even more admirable is Chen Jun.
Throughout the entire plan, Chen Jun was making predictions and deductions, and all his predictions and deductions were correct, ultimately staging this miracle.
This battlefield judgment, even more divine than Zhuge Liang’s, completely convinced Regiment Commander Wang and the other cadres.
Regiment Commander Wang even clapped his hands and praised, “High! Truly high! I, Wang Qing Rui, am convinced. The Zhuge Liang of our generation must be Staff Officer Chen.”
