Riverside police

There was nothing to observe if he continued to observe. It was too "dangerous" to stay in the observation group camp. Han Yu took the initiative to ask Ying to return to the sea to observe his troops to see if he could further improve the rescue ship brigade, militia transport brigade and Linghai reserve battalion based on the actual situation. combat effectiveness.

Seeing that his reasons were so good, Team Leader Shen weighed in and agreed.

Returning to the sea, Han Yu felt relieved and could live a "high-quality" life that was difficult to live on shore.

The crew cabin on the Big 001 is equipped with air conditioning, unlike on the shore where there are no fans, so sleeping at night is very comfortable. The Binxun not only has a full set of kitchen equipment, but also a large freezer and a national second-level chef. The food is better than on shore.

During the day, you can either take a transport boat to the fishing boat and cooperate with Li Mingsheng in the training of officers and soldiers participating in the war. Either work with the mechanical repair team aboard Big 001 to help repair the ships of the brother militia transport brigade participating in the exercise, or work with the diving team to help the civilian ships participating in the exercise troubleshoot problems such as being unable to lift anchors or having propellers entangled in fishing nets.

In the evening, go back to the Big 001 or Binxun for dinner, and then live on the boat.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and the participating troops ushered in their first combined exercise.

Ma Jintao, Xiaoyu and others had to accept the command of the landing craft brigade and drove away the power boat early. Yang Jianbo couldn't sail a boat and didn't want to stay on the big 001 doing nothing, so he boarded Jiangyu 628 with Han Yu and sent a small team composed of the army and the air force to land on the beach.

No need to ask, everyone knows that the eight army brothers with their faces covered in oil paint and their weapons and equipment far better than other troops must be the legendary special forces.

The brothers who are also wearing Army camouflage uniforms but wearing Air Force ranks look like they can't fight in the Army. However, their education level is definitely higher than that of the army. There are four people in total, including a captain, a lieutenant, a second lieutenant and a non-commissioned officer. The radios they carry also look very advanced.

There was a roar of artillery, but most of the shots fired were blank rounds.

Fighter planes roared overhead, and two Su Liangguai from the Air Force had just left the battlefield after firing a few rockets. Several more fighter-bombers flew over, pouring ammunition into the target circle set up on the coast.

Immediately afterwards, landing craft rushed to the beach.

The officers and soldiers on the landing craft began to seize the beach together with the Marine officers and soldiers who were swimming in arms.

The militia transport brigade followed closely behind and rushed to the beach at full speed. They did not stop until the bow of the ship was about to run aground.

Helicopters flew overhead, heading straight for depth.

Han Yu stood on the bow of the ship and raised his telescope to observe. He could clearly see that there were not many officers and soldiers landing in the first batch. There was a certain distance between landing craft and fishing boats and between fishing boats. Even the officers and soldiers performing the task of grabbing the beach looked very nervous. If it weren't for the fighter planes in the sky, I wouldn't have felt the tense atmosphere of a large-scale joint landing.

At this time, the boss of the ship no longer cared about watching the excitement. Under the command of the navy lieutenant accompanying the ship, he rushed to the beach at full speed.

Before the fishing boat could stop, the army lieutenant leading the team turned over and jumped into the sea.

"Hurry up and follow me!"

"yes!"

The officers and soldiers jumped in one after another. The four Air Force brothers, carrying weapons and radios and other equipment that were estimated to weigh 30 to 40 kilograms, trudged through the waist-deep water under the cover of brothers from the Army Special Forces.

"Captain Yang, retreat, increase your power and evacuate as quickly as possible!"

"yes!"

Following the navy lieutenant's order, the fishing boat gasped for black smoke and began to reverse.

The beach is dangerous and must be evacuated quickly.

Just when the fishing boat backed out 20 to 30 meters and started to turn around, Han Yu, Li Mingsheng and Yang Jianbo ran to the stern of the boat and continued to use binoculars to observe the direction of the beach.

Constantly adjusting the focus, you can clearly see the team climbing up the beach, passing through the diagonally inserted wood and reinforced concrete triangular pyramids, and quickly crossing about 400 meters in the combat formation trained a few days ago, which looks very empty. beach and successfully penetrated into the dense forest.

Li Mingsheng asked curiously: "Secretary Han, what does the team do? What tasks are they responsible for performing?"

Han Yu thought for a while, put down the telescope and said, "They may be responsible for air command and guidance of follow-up troops' landing and material delivery. If you guessed correctly, there should be more than one small team like them, performing the same tasks. If a war really breaks out, they will complete their mission no matter how much sacrifice they make!"

"Secretary Han, I asked you just now, why did you say you didn't know?" Yang Jianbo couldn't help but ask.

"Of course I would say I don't know in front of them. It's not good to know too much."

"Then how did you know?"

"I'm an observer. I've been watching their training every day on the shore these days, and I can tell a little bit about them."

"I thought they told you that."

"If I really asked, they would probably tell me, but this is a military secret. You can't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't pry about what you shouldn't pry."

The mission of Jiangyu 628 has been completed. It must immediately sail to the anchorage and stand by, leaving the landing area to the follow-up troops.

Seeing that Li Mingsheng could no longer look at the hall, he took out his cigarette and lit it with a windproof lighter. He took a nice puff and thought about it before asking: "Since this is a joint exercise, it should be close to actual combat. This is how we select people for the first wave of landing. Is that right?" Isn’t it a little less?”

"Quite a few."

Before Han Yu could speak, Yang Jianbo looked in the direction of the beach and explained: "You need to pay attention to the density of planting crops. If you plant them too densely, it will affect the growth of crops. Judging from the deployment of the headquarters, the landing sea area and beachhead are basically used. There cannot be more ships and more people taking part in the first landings."

Li Mingsheng asked subconsciously: "Can't there be more?"

"This is an exercise, so there is no enemy counterattack on the shore. If it is an actual battle, and the landing operation is like when we first arrived, all the ships are crowded on the sea, and the officers and soldiers are crowded on the beach. There is no need to deliberately aim the shore artillery, just hit it with one shot. If you come here, you can cause heavy casualties to us."

"How can we preserve our vitality to the greatest extent in such a sparse situation like now?"

"should be."

"But even this few people ashore are not enough!"

"This is just the first batch. Only when the officers and soldiers who successfully seize the beach can take over the beachhead, and when the Air Force and Naval Aviation take over the air, can the large forces move forward."

…

Han Yu didn't know whether his superiors had arranged it this way, because the anchorage of Jiangyu 628 was far away from the beach landing sea.

The three of them just sat on the deck of the fishing boat, looking up at the plane for most of the day. It was not until 4:30 in the afternoon that they received the news that the combined exercise was over.

Xiaoyu also completed the task and drove the power boat to pick up Han Yu and the others as agreed.

Arriving at the anchorage where the Hamanun was located, the sun was setting and the cook and the crew helping the cook were preparing dinner.

"Director Qian, Teacher Xia, what are you having for dinner tonight?"

“Have hotpot tonight.”

"eat hot pot?"

"It's been a long time since I've eaten. You don't want to eat."

"think."

As soon as Han Yu finished speaking, Staff Wu's call came from the intercom.

"Commander Wu, what are your instructions?"

"I instructed no one to tell you where you are at the moment."

"I'm on the supply ship of our rescue ship brigade, waiting for dinner. We will improve the food today and have hot pot tonight. If you want to come over, I will send a power boat to pick you up."

Staff Officer Wu glanced at the Air Force Colonel opposite, held up the walkie-talkie and said with a smile: "I won't go there, but there are two people who want to find you. You should quickly arrange a power boat to pick them up."

Han Yu asked curiously: "Who is looking for me?"

Seeing the air force colonel shaking his head, Staff Officer Wu smiled and said, "You will know when we meet. I have said hello to the pickets. You should hurry up, otherwise it will be bad for the commander to see you."

"Where should I pick him up?"

"The place where your men set up a pontoon bridge to supply supplies."

"I know, I'll be there right away."

Who is it? It's so mysterious.

But then again, during the exercise period, you have to be careful when socializing with fellow villagers, especially on the heavily guarded beach. You might be invited by pickets to drink tea.

Han Yu didn't want to cause any trouble to Staff Wu, so he quickly called Xiaoyu, climbed onto the power boat moored next to the ship along the pilot ladder, started the engine, and rushed to the beach as quickly as possible.

You wouldn't know if you didn't come, but Han Yu and Xiaoyu couldn't help but laugh.

"Mr. Jiang, when did you come?"

"He came the day before yesterday. Your kid is now an observer. It's impossible for others to know that you don't know. You didn't go to me even though you knew I was coming. Instead, you asked me to come to you!"

It's especially nice to see old friends again.

Mr. Jiang didn't even bother to raise his hand in return. He climbed onto the power boat and gave Han Yu a bear hug. Then he let go of his arms and put his arms around Xiaoyu's shoulders and said with a smile, "Xiaoyu, we meet again!"

Han Yu was equally happy and excited, but there were pickets patrolling the beach. Now was not the time to reminisce about old times. He quickly waved goodbye to Staff Wu and hurriedly operated the power boat to reverse.

Xiaoyu didn't expect to see the leader of the 404th Division of the 105th Army here, and asked happily: "Commander Jiang, isn't your division a recruit instructor? Are the recruits also coming to participate in the exercise?"

Commander Jiang smiled and said: "I have been transferred to the army. It has only been two months since I was transferred to the army. Otherwise, I would not have had the opportunity to meet you."

"Congratulations on your promotion."

"How can I be promoted to deputy chief of staff? I used to be a regular division commander, but I am still a regular division commander now."

"The next step is the chief of staff. The chief of staff has the rank of deputy corps. The rank of deputy corps can be promoted to major general!"

"For your good advice, if one day comes, I will treat you to dinner." Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang laughed, holding on to the side of the power boat and sighed: "Fortunately, I am the deputy. If I were the chief, how would I have the chance to slip away?" Come out to find you."

Xiaoyu asked curiously: "Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang, how did you know we were coming?"

"Yes, how did you get us here?" Han Yu was equally curious.

"I met Commander Meng of the 402nd Army yesterday afternoon. Commander Meng told me that he said that your kid has grown up and turned into an observer. Even he wants to use your back door."

"It's not as exaggerated as what Commander Meng said. By the way, how are Commander Peng and Political Commissar Yang doing now?"

"Lao Peng has been promoted and is now the deputy commander of the 404th Division. Lao Yang has changed his job this year and returned to his hometown early to contact work."

"Where's Li Shousong?" Han Yu asked, holding the steering wheel.

"Li Shousong is participating in training in the capital. When he returns from the training, he will be promoted to deputy regiment. Whether he will serve as deputy regiment leader or regiment chief of staff has not yet been determined."

An iron camp and flowing soldiers.

Some are transferred, some are promoted, and some change jobs, which is normal.

Han Yu recalled the scene during flood fighting and rescue operations, and couldn't help but smile and asked: "Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang, are you here to inspect the work of our Linghai Reserve Battalion and the rescue ship brigade?"

Last year, on the front line of the Jingjiang flood fight, many people went to the "Hong Kong Garrison" to eat and drink under the guise of inspection.

Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang did not expect that Han Yu actually remembered it, and couldn't help laughing: "I heard that you moved Linghai Hotel here, of course I'm going to check and see how your food is doing and the chef's skills. Is there any progress?”

Xiaoyu chuckled and said, "It's better to come early than to come by chance. We just happen to have hot pot tonight!"

"Really, I like hotpot the most. Do you have any wine?"

"have!"

"Make some later."

"Xiaoyu drinks with you, but I can't."

"Xianyu, I'm not talking about you. You are already a lieutenant colonel in the Navy Reserve. How can you not drink?"

"Drinking depends on your talent. I really can't drink."

…

Talking and laughing, we soon arrived at the anchorage of the logistics formation.

Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang boarded the training ship of Binjiang Shipping College. Yang Jianbo, Ma Jintao, Chen Jian, Gao Jichun and others had all participated in flood fighting and rescue operations. Seeing Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang, he was extremely excited and hurriedly stepped forward to salute and say hello.

After chatting on the deck for a while, they walked into the restaurant together.

Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang looked at the hot pot placed on the dining table and asked dumbfoundedly: "Salted fish, Jianbo, is this hot pot?"

"Yes, look at it, there are so many hot-pot dishes and beef!"

"I mean the bottom of the pot."

"What happened to the bottom of the pot?"

"This is white soup, and there is no red oil at all. How can you eat a clear soup with little water? Can this be called hot pot?"

Han Yu suddenly remembered that Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang had a strong taste and liked to eat heavy oily and spicy dishes. When he was fighting floods in Beihu last year, he often complained that the food at "Linghai Hotel" was too bland and too sweet, so much so that Zhang Erxiao bought a few bottles of chili sauce during the purchase, just for him to eat when he went to inspect the work. .

Yang Jianbo also realized that to Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang, this was indeed not hot pot, so he hurriedly turned around and asked, "Master Liu, do you have any hot pot ingredients?"

"No, no one eats spicy food, so I didn't buy it."

"Is there any hot sauce?"

"nor."

"Where are the dried chili peppers."

"No, anything spicy is not available on the ship." Binjiang people don't eat spicy food, so who would buy it? The chef looked helpless.

Han Yuzheng didn't know how to explain it. Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang smiled and said: "No, it doesn't matter. Pour me some soy sauce and vinegar."

"There's soy sauce and vinegar, I'll pour it in right now."

The chef rushed to help Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang prepare the dipping sauce.

Qian Shiming, Teacher Xia and Li Mingsheng were not familiar with Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang and did not want to disturb the gathering of old comrades such as Han Yu and others, so they found an excuse to eat in the next cabin.

Although drinking was not allowed during the exercise, there were several drunkards on the training ship and two boxes of wine were prepared.

Xiaoyu and Ma Jintao wanted to have a drink with Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang. Han Yu was worried about an urgent mission at night, so he only allowed them to have one drink each and let Yang Jianbo, who had a good drinker, take the lead.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang put down his cup, looked at Han Yu with a smile and said, "Xianyu, Jianbo, I'm here to fight at the front. Commander Lu is coming tomorrow too."

"Commander Lu is coming tomorrow?"

"We are not the deputy commander now, we are the full commander now!" Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang pointed to the clear soup pot in front of him and said with a smile: "If Commander Lu knows you are here, he will definitely come to see you. Let the logistics go ashore to see if there is any There is no hot pot base for sale, and his taste is similar to mine."

Commander Lu is a leader that everyone respects.

Last year in Beihu, I visited the Linghai Reserve Camp more than once. Later, the Yangtze River Commission and the China Shipping Bureau held a commendation meeting in Linghai, and they went to Linghai very honorably.

When the chief comes, of course he must be well received.

Han Yu quickly said: "Understood, I will arrange for people to go ashore early tomorrow morning to purchase!"
