Chapter 1179: Training on the Grassland

"The Type 92 infantry fighting vehicle was developed by the North... It is 6.63 meters long, 2.8 meters wide and high, and weighs more than 15,300 kilograms. Of course, in actual combat, this weight is even higher. The maximum speed is more than 80 kilometers per hour, and the maximum range is more than 800 kilometers. There are three crew members, the driver, the gunner, and the loader. There are seven people.

There are currently ten people in our class, and we can take them all with one vehicle. Of course, in actual combat, one or two more people will not be a big problem, just a little more crowded.

The heavy weapons are the Type 90 25mm machine gun and a Type 86 7.62mm coaxial machine gun. The machine gun cooperates with the vehicle's electrical system to change the type of ammunition, the rate of fire, etc. The shooting methods include single shot, three bursts, five bursts and bursts, and the rate of fire can be adjusted to one hundred or two hundred rounds per minute. The firing range of the machine gun is... the base number of ammunition... equipped with grenades and armor-piercing shells..."

In the warehouse of the Seventh Company, Shi Jin patted the armored vehicle and introduced the armored vehicle to Wang Yan.

He smiled and said, "This is our new car. The previous tank was retired. Coincidentally, our tank was sent away on the day you new recruits arrived."

Wu Liuyi also patted the armor: "How is it? Does it feel good?"

"That's pretty good."

Wang Yan nodded with a smile.

In fact, this armored vehicle still has many shortcomings, such as the armor is not thick enough, the protection ability is relatively poor, and the off-road ability is weak. In general, it is more like an armored transport vehicle than an infantry tank.

However, because it has a fast speed when the road conditions are good and has amphibious capabilities, it is still quite sufficient for now.

Wang Yan said, "What should I do?"

"What do you want to do?"

"I'm not picky, anything is fine. But I want to drive it for fun during training."

"Why wait until training? Let's take a ride now. This tank is not something that can be left alone. We have to drive it out for a ride every now and then. Tomorrow we will have a field training. Not only will we drive the tank, but we will also have target practice with machine guns and machine guns. You will have fun."

Wu Liuyi patted Wang Yan on the pat: "Get in the car, I'll teach you."

"Coming."

Wang Yan got in the car with Shi Jin and Wu Liuyi, and quickly started the tank and drove out of the garage.

In the third squad, Shi Jin, the squad leader, is naturally the commander of the tank, responsible for command and coordination. Wu Liuyi, the deputy squad leader, is the gunner, responsible for operating the machine gun and machine gun. In addition, there are drivers and loaders. The remaining soldiers shoot through the firing holes of the tank, and there are also lookouts and radio operators.

After getting off the car, Shi Jin is still the commander, and the others will be divided into assault, sniping, support, rescue, individual heavy weapons, etc. In short, everyone has a job.

Driving a tank is not difficult. It is the same with brakes, accelerators, and steering wheels. The gears are automatic and manual, and there is no need for clutch, and there is no need to find the coordination of gas and clutch.

The seat was raised and the hatch of the cab was opened. Wang Yan's head was exposed outside the tank. Shi Jin and Wu Liuyi sat outside the car, on both sides of the cab.

"Is it fun?" Wu Liuyi asked loudly.

Wang Yan also answered loudly: "It should be more fun in the wild."

"Of course, you will have fun tomorrow." Wu Liuyi laughed.

After driving the tank for two laps like this, Wang Yan reversed perfectly into the garage, and the three of them got off the tank.

"Do you know what to do now?" Shi Jin asked with a smile, patting the tank.

"I don't want to steal the driver's job." Wang Yan understood Shi Jin's meaning and said with a smile, "Apply for two guns for me, one Type 81 and one Type 85 sniper rifle. I can do both assault and sniping. Anyway, my body is fine, and I have no problem carrying heavy loads alone, which does not affect my movements at all. Otherwise, you can get me a lighter heavy machine gun. Although I have never used it, it should be no big problem to charge with a gun and ammunition on my back."

"There is a machine gun on the car. You can carry it and shoot it, but it is not convenient when we are riding in the car."

Shi Jin imagined the sturdy scene of Wang Yan charging with a heavy machine gun, and shook his head, and said, "It's better to take two guns, anyway, you are accurate. Let's check it during the exercise. If it is not convenient, it's better to take one gun."

"No problem with me."

"Then it's settled for now. I will give you a gun when we set off tomorrow." Shi Jin approved.

They belong to the front-line combat troops, and there are gun racks in the squad. Once there is an emergency assembly, they will line up and take their guns out, just like in the TV show.

As for whether it is live ammunition, that is a question after the assembly.

With Wu Liuyi, Wang Yan learned about the relevant knowledge of tanks for an afternoon, including various parts, maintenance, etc.

It is worth mentioning that Shi Jin is a good hand at maintaining, servicing and repairing tanks. In addition, his military skills are strong, which is why he is now a third-term non-commissioned officer.

But to be honest, in a mechanized infantry reconnaissance company like the Seventh Company, not to mention the new recruits, the veterans who have been there for a year also know more or less everything and have work on their hands.

Wang Yan and Wu Liuyi did not participate in the physical and tactical training of the third squad, mainly because their individual skills are really strong. If there is nothing to do, they will participate. Now Wu Liuyi’s task is to lead Wang Yan well, let Wang Yan adapt as soon as possible, form combat effectiveness, and improve the overall strength of the third squad.

After dinner that day, Class 3 held a small meeting, mainly to discuss the problem of ideological slackness that Shi Jin had mentioned during the day. He was not joking, he really gave the veterans in the class a lecture.

However, the atmosphere in the class is generally good in the army, and the third class is no exception. The veterans reviewed their laxity in the past three months and promised to show their attitude in the future, and the class meeting ended.

Bai Tiejun groaned and lay directly on the bed, speaking in his dialect: "I don't know who said that it would be easy after leaving the company, but it's not easy."

Gan Xiaoning smiled and continued: "We are a front-line combat unit, and our company is a sharp knife company. Do you still want to relax? Let me tell you one thing, as long as you don't die from training, you will train to death, just bear it."

"No, Brother Yan, what did you do in the afternoon?" Bai Tiejun asked Wang Yan, who was lying on the adjacent bed and reading a book.

"I went to learn tank knowledge from the deputy squad leader."

"That's not right. We are three people here, so we should learn together."

Before Wang Yan could speak, Wu Liuyi glared at him: "Are you two as good as Wang Yan? You are taking it step by step, but you can't even hold your gun steady. You don't even have basic combat skills, and you still want so much?"

"Comparing yourself to others makes you die..." Bai Tiejun looked up at the upper bunk and sighed...

"I tell you, Bai Tiejun, you must practice well. If you drag down our class, you will see how I will deal with you." Wu Liuyi threatened.

"I will definitely practice well, and practice to death!" Bai Tiejun sighed again, having seen the tragic situation afterwards...

Just like that, they spent the first day of the company with a smile, relaxed and happy...

Early the next morning, before the wake-up call sounded, a sharp whistle broke the peace of the morning sleep.

"Get up, get up, emergency assembly."

Wang Yan sat up and started to put on his clothes, which was much faster than Shi Jin, Wu Liuyi and others.

Bai Tiejun hesitated: "Squad leader, I didn't say there was an emergency assembly today."

"Just to make you feel urgent, hurry up! Why so much talk." Shi Jin said in a low voice, and started to get dressed and pack his backpack.

Wang Yan was the fastest, but he didn't rush out by himself, but stood at the door waiting. Others, even Bai Tiejun, who was dawdling, were not slow in their movements. After all, the time was only five minutes, and the steps were the same. They were not much slower or faster...

Soon, everyone gathered downstairs. More than 300 soldiers and officers of the third battalion all stood still on the spot. The battalion commander looked at his watch and nodded with satisfaction.

"Not bad, many new comrades and new partners have come, and no one is late, very good!"

The battalion commander glanced around and stopped at the seventh company, "Which one is Wang Yan?"

"Report!" Wang Yan shouted.

"Everyone says you are the best soldier, and you also won the commendation of the recruit company."

"Yes!"

The battalion commander walked over and looked at Wang Yan with a smile: "How is it, are you adapting?"

"Adapting!"

"Today we will have an armed cross-country training and live ammunition target shooting, so don't let me down."

"I promise there will be no problem."

"A little arrogant, that's good." The battalion commander hit Wang Yan's chest and walked away again.

He told several company commanders to give guns to the recruits.

Each company commander arranged it himself and asked someone to get the gun. After a while, all the new recruits who had just joined the third battalion were carrying guns.

Wang Yan was very eye-catching, carrying two guns, one Type 81 rifle and one Type 85 sniper rifle. The battalion commander glanced at him and said nothing.

To be honest, it was good enough that Gao Cheng didn't manage him...

But Gao Cheng thought that no one knew his second-generation identity, so he was still very obedient. Gao Cheng was a disciplined and principled person.

After the new soldiers received their guns and stood in line again, the battalion commander and battalion instructor spoke successively, welcoming the new soldiers and encouraging the veterans, instructing them to lead the new soldiers and unite as one. They also pointed out that veterans are not allowed to bully new soldiers. If they are found, they will be severely punished.

After such a speech, the wake-up call still did not sound, but the soldiers who were honing their combat effectiveness had already set off.

They ran to the garage, started a car and tank, rumbled out of the barracks and drove outside.

Their base is in the northern part of Zhangjiakou, where there are hills, grasslands and mountains, which are suitable for mechanized troops to cross-country training. What they are on guard against is the old Russians in the north, which is a rapid-reaction mechanized force.

Of course, in terms of manpower and combat effectiveness, they are not as good as the 38th Group Army, which is the leader of the Chinese Army. The 38th Group Army is a heavy-armored group army, and it is also a rapid-reaction force for the entire army's combat readiness. It can be driven to any place in China within seven days and nights. The main task is to garrison the capital...

Dozens of chariots and tanks are speeding in the wild. The drivers of the chariots have never stepped on the brakes all the way. The accelerator is welded. It is really as fast as the wind.

It took more than four hours to reach the training range. They did not stop even when they arrived, and they had to shoot at various targets. There were various targets near and far. The chariots and tanks of a battalion kept changing their formations, sometimes advancing and sometimes attacking. This was a small exercise of battalion-level tactics.

The real exercise must be a large-scale exercise confrontation, and then various problems can be discovered.

Wang Yan was also very happy. Wu Liuyi gave up the gunner's position, and he went up to fire dozens of machine guns and more than a hundred machine guns.

After such an exercise, it was already past noon before he finally had the opportunity to get off the car and rest.

"Ugh~"

The first thing Bai Tiejun did after getting off the car was to cover his mouth and walk to the side of the road.

But unfortunately, he had eaten compressed biscuits in the car for breakfast, and he hadn't eaten lunch yet, so he didn't vomit much, but just kept retching.

"Okay, it's good that you didn't vomit in the car." Shi Jin patted him on the back.

Wang Yan took out cigarettes and distributed them to the smokers in the class. A group of people hid behind the tank.

Wu Liuyi smiled and said, "You are good, nothing happened."

Bai Tiejun, who was vomiting wildly, heard it and argued to himself: "Wang Yan still stuck his head out to fire, he took a breath. I said I would do it twice, why can't I do it."

"Get lost, with your physique, can you hold it? If something goes wrong, you turn the muzzle and hit our own people. What should we do? Our whole class will have to go to court. You think it's beautiful."

Gan Xiaoning said the truth on the side.

The two of them get along well, but Bai Tiejun is shameless, dares to speak, is very slick, and gets along well with everyone.

But he is different from Wang Yan. Wang Yan is convinced, while Bai Tiejun is forced to get along.

Wang Yan asked: "Didn't the battalion commander say that we still need to shoot and practice?"

"After eating, why, do you want to show off?"

"I'll ask." Wang Yan laughed, "Do I need to think about it? With my ability, I can't hide it even if I want to."

A group of people laughed and scolded Wang Yan for being so pretentious.

Wang Yan sighed, as if he remembered something, and asked: "Squad leader, is the fifth squad of the third company right here?"

Shi Jin was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "It's over there, ten kilometers away. I want to go and see Xu Sanduo?"

"Are we on the same way?"

"We'll camp not far over there tonight. Just tell the company commander when the time comes."

"Xu Sanduo was crying and wiping tears yesterday. I don't know what his face will be like then."

Wu Liuyi snorted: "What other face can he have? He's grinning and showing his teeth. He's just laughing like a fool."

Wang Yan shook his head with a smile: "You go? Let's take a look together?"

"Go, I'm free anyway." Wu Liuyi did not refuse.

"The three of us will go together. The squad leader of the fifth squad is my old squad leader who led me when I was in the recruit company. We have always had a good relationship. It's a good opportunity to go and see him."

"That's settled."

Talking and laughing, the cooking squad that followed the training also prepared the food. The soldiers who had been tossing for a morning finally had a hot meal.

After lunch, we took a short break and started live-fire shooting under the scorching sun. Wang Yan showed off a little bit as expected. He also drove a tank to drift in the wild, which was a little fun...

I would like to thank the good brothers who voted for the monthly ticket, recommended ticket and read the book silently for their strong support!
