Chapter 1350: District 51 of China (I Wish You All Book Friends a Happy New Year)
On the way back to the camp, Liang Yangang took the initiative to squeeze into the same command car with Wei Jianjun.
During the assessment process, there must be no too close contact between the examiner and the candidate.
But since it's over, there's not so much to avoid.
Liang Yangang looked at the simulated launch vehicle following through the rearview mirror. After hesitating for a while, he still asked the question he had been worried about:
"I said the Chief of Staff... After our brigade has changed, we will not transfer to other bases, right?"
Although the 810th Brigade, as the worst unit in the army, has been in a situation where his father does not love his mother for a long time, he has been stationed here for many years, and there are still bases 51 and this land of Liaobei. Feelings.
If you really want to change the place, you are still a little reluctant to let it go.
Wei Jianjun was sorting out some additional data in his notebook, and almost subconsciously shook his head when he heard this:
"How is it possible... The second artillery brigade-level unit changes, but it can be said that it is a big event. If there is really a plan in this regard, there should be news."
Then he asked in confusion:
"Why did you ask this suddenly?"
Liang Yangang was silent for a moment with a strange face, and then replied:
"Nothing...it's just that this dress-up is a bit too strange...it always feels not as simple as it seems."
Wei Jianjun curled his lips:
"The superior must have his own considerations, and we obey the orders..."
Although he said that, he had already noticed the special nature of this mission.
As an independent army that undertakes the most important long-range strikes and strategic deterrent forces of the entire army, the equipment renewal of the Second Artillery Force has basically been planned for a long time.
Generally speaking, within half a year to one year before the actual dressing, preliminary work such as personnel training and logistics and material preparation have already begun, and the internal news often spreads earlier.
However, the 810th Brigade's dressing was almost unpredictable. It was a call from the Second Artillery Headquarters to the base, and then the base commander personally went to the capital to receive the order.
Even he, the chief of staff, only got some second-hand information.
The subsequent training, including this assessment work, was also organized quite hasty. Thanks to the 810th Brigade's long-term service to Dongfeng 3, which had accumulated a lot of experience, otherwise it would have not been so easy to pass the test.
Not to mention, this time I will replace the medium-range bomb with a short-range bomb.
The deployment locations of the base missile brigade were specially measured at the beginning of the establishment of the troops. Even though the equipment has the ability to deploy and launch mobile, the scenes of overcoming various accidents and turning into the launch position will basically only appear in training. In the case, whether it is considered fast response or confidentiality, nearby launches will be given priority.
As far as the eastern part of Liao Province is concerned, medium-range bombs can cover most of the island, and long-range bombs can reach Alaska points.
The range of the new missile is about 1,000 kilometers, which is very embarrassing here. It cannot cover almost any sensitive target, and it is more like a model that should be deployed on the southeast coast.
It can't be specifically targeted at South Korea, right?
It's not that Wei Jianjun has any prejudice...
Well, Wei Jianjun is just biased—
This new ballistic missile looks expensive just by looking at it, and it is not something you can eat for any target.
Therefore, when the superiors secretly make this happen, the ultimate goal is that the drunkard's intention is not to drink.
But these considerations are definitely not possible to tell Liang Yangang, who is a subordinate.
...
Although the entire convoy drove a total mileage of about 300 kilometers in the assessment just now, it was impossible to drive the missile launcher onto the highway, so it has always been around the base to simulate various terrain. Counter-reconnaissance operations.
There is no need to detour to return, and it took less than an hour to return to the camp.
Liang Yangang was about to say goodbye to Wei Jianjun and went down to command the vehicles to enter the warehouse and repair them separately, but he saw an off-road vehicle with license plate No. 1 parked in the most conspicuous position at the entrance of the main building of the agency.
The two looked at each other and saw the same guess from each other's eyes—
Obviously something new is happening.
Liang Yangang picked up the radio and informed the political commissar to take over his command, and then followed Wei Jianjun to the Dongfeng command car.
The base commander Zang Hongyan was sitting upright in the passenger seat, closing his eyes to rest.
It seemed as if I felt someone approaching, I opened my eyes just right, and then lowered the car window:
"How is the training going smoothly?"
Although he didn't turn his head, this sentence was obviously asked to Wei Jianjun.
This time it was the leader's speech, so of course he had to say something:
"The comprehensive scores have fully met the excellent standards or above, and 24 of the 25 sub-item indicators are full marks, which will definitely live up to the high expectations of the superiors!"
The 810th Brigade was an old army he brought out. Now that he has achieved such results, he has been appointed as a new equipment verification unit. It is also a matter of glory for Wei Jianjun.
"Okay! I'm sure I'm not wrong!"
Zang Hongyan slapped his thigh and pushed the door and got out of the car directly.
This time, I looked directly at Liang Yangang next to me:
"Comrade Liang Yangang."
"arrive!"
The latter immediately stood attentively and saluted.
Zang Hongyan waved his hand and signaled the other party to take a break, then took out a file bag with seals from the car:
"With the fastest speed, select the most experienced and most combat-capable battalion from your brigade, gather at 2 a.m. tomorrow and rush to the Air Force Siping Airport!"
"Yes, guarantee to complete the task!"
Liang Yangang immediately accepted the order, but his face was still full of confusion after taking the file bag:
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
"But where are the airports... going? And how do you transport vehicles and equipment?"
He stayed in the 810th Brigade after graduating from military academy and has been using Dongfeng 3 for the next twenty years, and has no idea about "replacing new equipment".
But if you learn from the experience of a brother unit, you usually have to transport it from the production site to a nearby unloading point by railway, and then drive back to the camp by relying on the power of the equipment itself.
The previous process only requires escort and loading and unloading personnel, and there should be no need for a complete missile battalion to go to other places.
Zang Hongyan stretched out his finger and pointed to the file bag.
Liang Yangang looked down in the direction and found that there was a line of big red characters written on it.
"High-tech Verification Center for Space and Flight Science..."
But he still looked confused.
He just passed the threshold of a middle- and senior military officer, and as a front-line brigade commander, his main energy is still on daily work and training, and he doesn't pay much attention to these things that have nothing to do with his business.
However, Wei Jianjun searched in his memory for a while and suddenly thought of something:
"It seems like it was the past Dingxin trial training base. I only changed the brand two years ago?"
Zang Hongyan nodded with a smile:
"Yes, this trip is to Dingxin, and it is your pass."
"As for equipment... all the equipment is there, we just need to release people."
Liang Yangang has heard of this location:
"But isn't that the Air Force's training center? It also has something to do with our Second Artillery...?"
"It's not already."
Zang Hongyan explained:
"About two years ago, at the suggestion of some engineering and technical personnel, the military approved the upgrade of the Air Force Dingxin Base to a universal equipment development and testing base for the entire army, benchmarking District 51 of Lincoln County, Nevada, and specifically responsible for testing top secret levels. Military aerospace technology…”
“…”
Hearing this sentence, Liang Yangang almost blurted out, "We have caught aliens too?"
But I still controlled it, and changing my words became another problem:
"So...has something to do with our new equipment?"
District 51 is mainly responsible for conducting various sensitive technology tests that are inconvenient to be disclosed. Aliens are just a sense of mystery and conspiracy theories forced by the outside world.
Considering that this rumor actually helps hide the real function of this base, the US military may also be fueling the fire.
"That's right."
Zang Hongyan replied, then took a step forward and looked at Liang Yangang, who was slightly taller than him:
"As for the more specific situation... it can only be known after the troops leaders and the specific personnel you participated in are in place."
