Chapter 502 503 is not enough

In the camp where rows of M4 tanks are parked, the 9th Panzer Corps of Alanhill 9th Army Group The main force of the 9th Division is enjoying a leisurely vacation.

The demonic forces advancing east have been almost wiped out, and the activity of the Magic Eye near Gricon has been reduced to the lowest level in the past few months, and the combat mission of the 9th Army Group has greatly increased. reduction.

Even the commander of the army can go home to participate in the man-making movement, and it can be imagined how high the fighting intensity of the remaining people is.

The main affairs of the 9th Army Group are now handed over to General Alfred, and most of the troops are also on vacation or on the second-level alert.

Because of the production capacity of the T-72 tanks, the tank units of the 9th Army Group have not been replaced with this new type of tanks. The M4 tanks are still used here, and many weapons and equipment have stayed at the last time. in an updated state.

For example, artillery, most of the self-propelled artillery units on the southern front have been replaced by the new M-109 self-propelled artillery, and here are almost all priest self-propelled artillery.

The same is true for the Scud missile unit. They have not been refitted, but have updated and supplemented missiles. The launch vehicle is still the old-fashioned kind, and there is not much change.

Although some anti-aircraft missiles have been added, most of them are still outdated models, and Hawke and others account for the overwhelming majority. Patriot air defense missiles are poor, not to mention the advanced Patriot 2 missile system.

The radar base station built by Grecon is also very primordial, and most of the technology here is still in the state of the late World War II. The troops also use some ancient weapons. Although most soldiers have replaced STG-44 and AK-47, they still have not completely eliminated the outdated Mauser 98K rifle.

Compared with the troops fighting in the real core area, the weapons equipped by the troops here are a bit worse, and even the air force with good mobility is terribly slow to change clothes.

Because the supporting facilities of the front-line airfields could not be updated in time, the 9th Air Force 9th Army, which covered the operations of the 9th Army Group, was still equipped with the old-fashioned MiG-21 fighter jets, although it was updated to a more advanced version, But it's still a MiG-21 fighter.

In comparison, the troops deployed in the War Zone in the southern part of the empire have all been replaced with F-16 fighter jets, and the troops deployed in the core area have all been using F-15 fighter jets.

Even the command system, the 9th Army Group lags behind the overall update level of Alanhill, the command system here is still at the level of the late World War II, and the advanced overall level of Alanhill during the Gulf War The difference is obvious.

To put it bluntly, this expeditionary force farthest from the mainland of Alanhill is actually getting less and less attention, and there is no urgent need for Grecon, and asks Alanhill to strengthen the battle strength of the 9th Army Group .

To be more precise, after completing the modernization of the two armies and improving the level of their own battle strength, Grecon is unwilling to let the troops of other countries stationed in the country strengthen their strength. .

This is also such is human nature, no country wants the troops of other countries stationed in its own country to become stronger and stronger - of course, such a wonderful thing as the Republic of Korea does not count.

Since Grecon was not concerned, and Alanhill was not in a hurry to strengthen, the 9th Army Group became a forgotten corner.

A tank commander who was repairing parts on the tank, covered with oil, put the wrench on the cold steel of the tank, looked back towards the officer who came to him, stood at attention and saluted, and used His curious eyes looked at each other.

The officers here are not from the 9th Army Sequence, they are from the Imperial Quartermaster Logistics Management Department, and they are from the Teaching Unit.

"Lieutenant Ryan! We are officers of the Imperial Army Teaching Headquarters. This time, we want to ask for your personal opinion. If you agree, we plan to transfer talents like you to the teaching unit. Go to serve." A major led by him explained his purpose in a calm tone.

This is also an important part of the improvement of the army's battle strength. After being in the front line for a long time, there is an opportunity to be transferred to the teaching headquarters and become an army instructor.

Anyone who can become an instructor of the arms is a veteran with actual combat experience, tenacious fighting will, and excellent combat skills.

They have gone through various battles on the front line, and have comprehensive combat experience and practical battle skills. They are the absolute elite and backbone of each unit.

It would be a waste of talent for elites like this to stay on the front lines. Alanhill has drawn up a statute for the promotion of veterans. As long as they have accumulated a certain number of battles on the front line, they can apply to be discharged home.

Similarly, soldiers who explicitly choose not to be discharged home can be promoted within the military or transferred to a more relaxed department.

For example, armored troops, theoretically, as long as they reach the super trump card, that is, destroy 50 enemy targets, they will have the opportunity to be transferred to the training department as an instructor.

The training troop is divided into corps level, group army level, army group level, as well as the units directly under the highest imperial education headquarters.

In theory, these troops do not need to go to the front line to fight, they only need to be responsible for training and assessing the supplementary troops and new troops within the troops, so that these follow-up troops can reach a higher training level.

Lion has fought with the 9th Army Group for so long, and he is also one of the first candidates to be promoted and transferred to the training headquarters.

He looked at each other, light blue's eyes didn't blink, as if he was trying to make a choice.

For such veterans, there is actually a kind of reluctance to give up the dangerous combat mission on the front line. It is not easy for them to leave their comrades who fought bloody battles with them and leave their familiar tanks.

You must know that there are many elites in the army who have explicitly rejected the option of being transferred to the training army. Among them, there is the famous empty War King card, the super ace fighter pilot Oranke known as the black skeleton. .

Elan Raymond, a super ace pilot who has already completed the attack aircraft support mission but still participated in the frontline, has no intention of leaving the frontline air force.

However, for an ordinary person, it is also a tempting thing to get promoted and go back to work in a stable rear.

No matter how unaccustomed it is, it's obviously better to stay with your lover, get a higher rank, get a higher salary, and get a decent job choose.

The only thing you need to pay for choosing these is that you can't continue to face the killing, and you don't have a lot of crazy pleasure.

If such a choice is given to a person who has never been on the battlefield, a fool will also choose the latter option. But for a man who has been on the battlefield, it is really confusing.

"Think slowly, Lieutenant Ryan, you know that if you are willing to stay on the front line, we will also routinely provide you with a recommendation for you to be promoted to lieutenant immediately." The major stroked his hand. Take a look at this well-kept M4 tank, said to Ryan.

<> Ryan nodded lightly, then glanced at the news and heard the news. The gunner, the loader, and the four mechanics who had already gathered, showed an apologetic look on his face.

"I'm sorry, I decided to go back, sorry." Ryan lowered his head, opened the mouth and said apology in a voice that he could only hear.

"Don't be stupid! You can go back is what everyone wants to see!" The gunner extended the hand, patted on Ryan's shoulder, and said comforted: "We all hope you can go back, we I hope anyone can get out of here. This is a battlefield, what a hell of a place, it's not worth nostalgic."

"Yes! Captain!" The mechanic also smiled and said, "You are A good commander, at the general training, help other troops to train more commanders like you!"

Ryan looked at his familiar subordinates with tears in his eyes, he didn't know what to say for a while what is good.

"The right choice, Lieutenant Ryan... or rather, Lieutenant Ryan! You will be promoted to two ranks soon, so I congratulate you in advance." The major who came to receive the person smiled, Because there are not many soldiers willing to leave with him.

Many people will end up staying on the front lines, even the majority. The young Alanhill naturally has youthful vigor and passion, and even the soldiers are more fearless of life and death.

"You didn't betray your comrades on the front line, you just changed the way of fighting! You have to keep this in mind! When you go to the rear, you will naturally have a direction that you need to work hard to cultivate for the country. Qualified armored warfare commander, your work is also very important!" The major of the teaching department in a good mood seriously said a few words to Ryan about his understanding and feelings, which was considered to comfort Ryan.

After finishing speaking, he handed a printed certificate to Ryan: "Okay! You have 2 days to say goodbye to your comrades in arms. Then pack up your private items, With this certificate, take a plane or train, return to the Higgs area, and report to the division headquarters of the 2nd Armored Instructor Division."

According to the requirements of the troops, such elites are being transferred to the training troops. When they were there, they all had a small vacation. If they didn't want to take a plane, they could also take a train and play along the way.

As long as they arrive at the check-in location within the specified time, they are allowed to arrange the process themselves.

Ryan took the certificate and saw the stencil of the eagle spreading its wings on it, as well as his name printed on it. He didn't know what it was like.

He lifted the head again, looked at the Old Partner who had been with him for a long time, looked at the mottled scars on the armor of this M4 tank, and finally extended the hand with emotion. , rubbed a few times on it.

I can't see enough, the scenery of the front line, I can't see enough...
