Chapter 1014 It’s Just Nonsense
Gao Yang first went to Li Jinfang and Irene, who were studying how to train Faruk.
After knocking on the door and pushing it open, Gao Yang said to the two of them, "Did you find anything in your research?"
Irene was lying on her bed, with her feet on the head of the bed, shaking, and said loudly: "What are you studying? Studying, it's just that little thing, pick up what Faruk lacks the most and let him practice it." .”
Irene was a woman, so she was treated the same as Gao Yang. She occupied a room by herself and was very comfortable, while Li Jinfang was sitting at Irene's small table, deep in thought.
Gao Yang walked to Li Jinfang. There were several pieces of paper on the table. Li Jinfang held a pen in his hand and looked straight at the clean white paper in front of him.
"Are you in a daze? Or are you thinking about something?"
Li Jinfang looked up at Gao Yang and said, "Ah, it's okay, I didn't do anything."
Gao Yang gave a wry smile, and Li Jinfang was offline again. He patted Li Jinfang on the shoulder, and then said loudly: "Then how are you going to train Faruk? Let me tell you again, everything you learned in Israel is It can’t be taught. For the rest, you can teach whatever you can.”
Erin said loudly: "We have already discussed it. Toad will be responsible for Faruk's physical fitness and fighting skills, and I will be responsible for Faruk's tactical movements, combat formation, and command. We can't stay here for too long. There’s no chance to teach Farooq anything too complicated.”
Gao Yang waved his hand and said, "It's almost time. Come with me and help Faruk pick up troops together."
Eileen jumped off the bed and said, "Are you really planning to command them yourself?"
Gao Yang shrugged. Said: "Why not, don't look down on people so much, right? The people who come here should all have some basic skills, and they can join the battle after a little running-in. Let's be stricter and select truly capable people. Isn't this good? Well."
Erin clapped her hands in a manly manner and said loudly: "Let's see how those rookies are doing."
The three people went out, only to see Grolev walking slowly outside the door. He waved his hand high and said loudly: "Big dog. What are you doing?"
After Grolev turned around and saw Gao Yang, he pointed to the room next to him and said, "I'm bored. I'll go chat with the savages."
Gao Yang waved his hand and said: "Don't go, come with us. Faruk's new recruits are coming soon.
Let's go pick up troops. "
Grolev thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's fine."
The four people walked to Farouk's house and knocked on the door. They saw Farouk wearing a straight military uniform with his hat on his arm. After looking at Gao Yang, Farouk opened his arms. Said: "How is it? Is it okay?"
Gao Yang smiled and pointed at Faruk and said, "You are nervous."
Faruk shook his head subconsciously, but after hesitating for a moment, he nodded again. He said: "Yes, I am indeed a little nervous. The people here are all elites of the Republican Guard. I am indeed worried that I will lose face and lose the face of the old army."
Erin waved her hand and said: "Relax. There is nothing to be nervous about. Just finish what you need to say. Then put on a straight face and leave the rest to us."
Farouk nodded. But then he pointed at Gao Yang with a mournful face and said: "He has the rank of colonel, and I have the rank of captain. Do you think it is useful for me to keep a straight face?"
Gao Yang shrugged helplessly and said: "Then I have no choice. Okay, let's go. It's time to go to the runway. It's almost time. We have to see the person who will become your subordinate as soon as possible."
The five people slowly walked to the edge of the runway. After standing still, Gao Yang said in confusion: "I really don't understand. They are all in Damascus. Why do they need to send these people here by plane? The Syrian transport plane is not in urgent need now." Is it missing?"
Faruk stood upright and said with a serious face: "I don't know, maybe General Marshall wants to send them here by plane, although it only takes a few minutes to fly from this airport to that airport."
Farouk's answer was nonsense, but it was not nonsense. Who knew what Marshall was thinking. It was only a matter of Marshall's words to send someone away in a laborious and thankless way.
Only the Il-76 in Syria can transport more than 160 people at a time, and there are only four Il-76s in Syria.
After waiting for almost ten minutes, Gao Yang heard the roar first. As the sound gradually increased, he saw a large plane appearing in the sky.
The plane landed, the tail hatch opened, and groups of soldiers ran out of the plane's tail cabin.
The leader was a major. After seeing Gao Yang and the others, when many soldiers were forming a team, the major walked directly in front of Gao Yang and Faruk.
Seeing the rank of colonel on Gao Yang's shoulder, the forty-year-old officer first saluted Gao Yang, and then Faruk saluted the major.
After saluting each other, the major said solemnly: "I am ordered by General Marshall to bring these people here to be tested and selected. After you select enough suitable candidates, I will take the rest back."
More than 160 people stood in a large square formation in the open space next to the runway, but the formation was very uneven.
Gao Yang looked at the group of soldiers. In fact, they couldn't be called soldiers because there were quite a few officers in the crowd. There were at least three second lieutenants and a lieutenant inside.
The soldiers vary in height and have various military uniforms. Some are wearing officer uniforms, some are wearing army combat camouflage uniforms, some are wearing training uniforms, and some are wearing tank crew uniforms.
It didn't matter that the clothes were different, Gao Yang even saw at least fifteen or sixteen people wearing glasses.
Gao Yang couldn't help it anymore. He looked at Faruk and said, "This is the fucking elite you told me about? The elite among the elite?"
Faruk was also a little dumbfounded. He said in a daze: "Didn't the general say that he selected people from the special units of the Republican Guard Division?"
The major coughed slightly and said: "You require everyone to speak English. Well, most of the people who can speak English are here. As for the selection of people in the special units mentioned before, there are some problems, so the original plan was cancelled. .”
Faruk was a little anxious. Although he was one level behind, he still stepped in front of the major and whispered: "What's going on! I'm talking about the special forces, but who are these people? ?I don’t require that people from the special forces must be sent here, but our unit was established for special operations. Even if you are not a member of the special forces, you can send me some from the combat units, but sir, I only read it. At a glance, I saw a dozen civilian personnel and tank crews! I, I, I will take them to carry out airborne operations behind enemy lines?"
The major calmly said softly: "The general originally planned to transfer people from the Mediterranean Condor, but his request was rejected. Therefore, the general transferred all the people from the Republican Guard and the 4th Armored Division who could speak English and signed up voluntarily. It’s been delivered, you can take your time and choose!”
Gao Yang understood what was going on.
The Syrian Republican Guard is different from the huge Iraqi Republican Guard. When it was first established, the Syrian Republican Guard had only a little more than 10,000 people. Based on this number, it was almost a division, so many people also call the Syrian Republican Guard the Republican Guard Division. .
The Republican Guard division now has more than 25,000 people. The commander is Marshall, and Marshall has now included Syria's most elite 4th Armored Division under his command. The key is that the Syrian Republican Guard is a pure armored force. The Fourth Armored Division is of course also an armored force.
As for the Mediterranean Condor, this is a special force. Gao Yang is not familiar with this force, but he knows that this force does not seem to be under Marshall's control.
The situation now is obvious. Marshall wanted to have a combat-effective special forces unit under his command. He reached out to the Mediterranean Condor, but now it seems that his wish has failed.
Gao Yang didn't know what Marshall was thinking. Now it seemed that he felt that Marshall wanted to build a special force from scratch.
Gao Yang didn't know if Marshall was trying to get angry, but he knew that Marshall was fooling around. He was deleting a group of people from two armored divisions to form a special force that mainly relied on helicopters to land and carry out operations behind enemy lines. This was not nonsense. What is it.
The special forces are easy to set up. If a group of soldiers with good foundation and combat effectiveness are selected to form them, it will be like that. But the only foundation of these people sent by Marshall is that they can speak English. This is not nonsense. What is it.
He was so angry that his teeth ached. He originally planned to recruit people who could fight. Regardless of whether they were elites, they would definitely be able to use them. However, he had to bring a group of people from different units with basically no foundation. Can he It is difficult for anyone who is good at shooting to play a difficult game like decapitation, unless he is crazy.
It will take at least two or three months to train this group of people. This is to lower the requirements to the standard of leading a group of ordinary infantry to fight.
If according to the standards of special forces, without targeted and intensive training for one or two years, would you still be called a special forces?
Gao Yang's nose was almost crooked with anger, but Faruk's face was distorted. The group of people sent by Marshall were far worse than the people selected by his old army.
Looking at the expressions of Gao Yang and Faruk, the major coughed lightly again and said, "Although there are many civilian personnel, well, I just want you to be grateful for the choice. In fact, I also know that they are not very qualified. But the general really has high hopes for them. In fact, many of these people have potential, and many of them were selected from the reconnaissance force. I think maybe their strength can satisfy you."
Faruk looked at Gao Yang for help, and then whispered: "What should I do?" (To be continued)
