On the provincial road, a convoy of more than 20 different types of vehicles was moving at full speed. Wherever the convoy passed, all the intersections were temporarily controlled by the local traffic police.
Qu Sen moved with the command vehicle. Han Zhenjiang, the deputy division commander, and the chief of staff led a few staff officers to determine the deployment positions of the troops. Qu Sen and the communications team were responsible for maintaining the communication network and real-time reporting the movement progress of each unit.
At 20: 07 in the evening, all the members of the Fifth Mixed Division of the 22nd Division of the Central Military Region, as the Red Team, arrived at the designated location of the exercise director.
After receiving the materials for the exercise, they began to change their equipment. While the individual soldiers changed into the special equipment and ammunition for the exercise, all the participating vehicles were also installed with smoke induction devices.
Because of the foundation laid during the "Storm" exercise, the speed of the change was extremely fast. At 22: 30, they passed the inspection of the exercise director. At 23: 00 sharp, all the units began to enter the exercise area.
At midnight on July 24th, all the Red Team troops entered the position and began to build field fortifications and camouflage positions.
The engineering team completed the construction of the Red Team's field command center in a very short time. Before Han Zhenjiang and his staff officers arrived, Qu Sen's communications team had already moved the communication equipment into the command center with the help of the guard battalion.
When Han Zhenjiang and his staff officers entered the command center, the communications team was doing communication tests with the other units and the logistics department.
About 75 kilometers to the south of the Red Team's command center, the Blue Team's forward command center had already completed the deployment and was working.
Yue Jianjun, who became the commander of the Blues for the second time, looked at the time at the bottom of the big screen and asked, "How is it? Did you find out which unit is on the other side?"
Because the Blue Team was the side that launched the sudden attack in the exercise script, they were authorized to enter the exercise area in advance. When the Red Team began to deploy, they had already begun to monitor the battlefield and collect intelligence.
When the technical investigation team leader heard the commander's question, he immediately stood up and reported, "Commander, we have locked onto a few communication terminals of the Red Team, but the other party's communication code is not in our database."
"Wow, you're smart. You changed the communication code." Yue Jianjun wasn't surprised that the Listening Investigation Team couldn't identify which team the red team belonged to. He even had a smile on his face.
Because the Blue Team was the initiator of the maneuver, Yue Jianjun knew about the news of his participation before Han Zhenjiang did. When he learned that the scale of the maneuver was set at the division level, he already knew that his opponents were none other than the nine divisions of the Central Military Region that had been reorganized.
After guessing the approximate range of the enemy, Yue Jianyun used all his channels to find out the military structure of the nine divisions and even the communication codes while the enemy was still in the dark. They had even set up a small database for this purpose so that after determining the opponent, they could immediately analyze what cards the "enemy" had and their overall strength.
"Reporting!" On an independent operating platform next to the Tech Investigation Unit's work area, a female officer suddenly stood up. When she saw Yue Jianjun looking at her, the female officer began to report, "I have successfully hacked into the Red Team's communication network. I have discovered a total of 27 communication terminals and 205 communication nodes."
Although the female officer's expression was serious when she reported, there was a hint of playfulness in her voice, as if she was very proud of her success.
"Can you locate the discovered terminals?" Yue Jianjun asked.
"That requires hacking into the other party's satellite network and calculating through triangulation. It will take time. However, the signal transmission of the communication system uses the local GPRS network for assistance. If you can contact the communication service company, they can use the AGPS algorithm to complete the fast positioning, "the female officer immediately answered.
The Blue Team was now the invader. As an invader, how could they get technical support from the local communication service company? Therefore, the female officer's suggestion was impossible to get cooperation.
Yue Jianjun knew that the damned girl surnamed Zhou was checkmating him. He vaguely glared at the other party and immediately retorted, "Didn't you boast to me that as long as you hacked into the other party's network, you could command their troops as you pleased?"
"That's under normal circumstances." Lady Zhou, who had been urgently conscripted and was once again wearing the rank of a civilian officer, didn't feel guilty at all. She continued to explain, "The identification code used by the Red Team is not in our database. Moreover, they used a secret code for their communication. This is beyond the scope of my abilities. We need the intervention of a cryptographer."
"Secret code for communication?" Hearing this, Yue Jianjun's face finally became serious. He thought for a moment and asked the staff officer beside him, "Is Officer Sun of the Military Intelligence Department a cryptographer?"
"Yes!" The staff officer immediately answered.
"Call her over." After Yue Jianjun gave the order, he looked at Zhou Li and said in a slightly provocative tone, "Other than waiting for a cryptographer, can you do something else?"
"Yes!" Zhou Li answered without hesitation. He pointed at the backup server in the command center and said, "Give me a server. When needed, I can make the Red Team's communication network suddenly go down."
"How long do you need to prepare?" Yue Jianjun's eyes suddenly lit up.
Zhou Li muttered to himself for a moment and said firmly, "Twenty minutes is enough!"
Yue Jianjun believed that Zhou Li wouldn't carelessly pat his chest on this kind of thing. After getting a definite answer, he immediately gave the order, "Order! All troops on the frontlines are to launch a surprise attack on the Red Team's territory in twenty minutes according to plan number two! "
According to the script of the drill, the Blue Team was an invading force. They were fighting in a foreign land. Although they had a certain advantage in equipment and technology in a division level confrontation, after substituting it into the real world, the longer the war dragged on, the more dangerous the Blue Team's situation would become.
According to Yue Jianjun's judgment, if they couldn't completely destroy the Red Team's forces in twenty-four to thirty-six hours, even if they won the drill in the end, the director's department would give them a failing grade.
This wasn't like the "Storm" drill where they could fight back and forth. They had to end the battle quickly!
And now that the battle had just begun, if they could seize the initiative while the Red Team was still unsettled, it would be best if they could destroy the Red Team's forces as much as possible in the shortest amount of time possible. Then, the following battles could be easily swept away.
Inside the Red Team's command center, they continuously received reports of the various troops completing their battle preparations. The reconnaissance troops and drones sent out also continuously sent back information about the Blues.
Han Zhenjiang's expression became more and more serious as he looked at the analysis of the suspected Blues garrisoned areas and units on the big screen. He had just fought with Yue Jianjun a year ago, so it was easy for him to determine from the structure of the troops and the characteristics of the garrisoned areas that the opponent was an old rival — the synthetic division of the Southwest Military Region.
Although the scope of the drill this time was limited to a division level confrontation, the Blue Team didn't have the participation of the special forces brigade, the mountain brigade, or other technical units. However, the reaction speed and combat ability of the synthetic division left a deep impression on Han Zhenjiang.
Especially after the last drill, when the commander of the Red Team's participating troops came to visit the synthetic division, Han Zhenjiang had a deeper understanding of this experimental force. He was very clear about their strength.
"Give orders to the commanders of the various troops. Make sure they understand the two sets of mobile defense plans in the shortest amount of time possible." After making the decision, Han Zhenjiang immediately gave orders to the staff officers.
After Qu Sen's communications command team received the orders, they immediately converted the orders into codes and sent them out.
The reason he gave the orders just now wasn't because Han Zhenjiang didn't believe in the new communications command system, but because the Blue Team's communication suppression ability during the last drill had left a deep impression on the Red Team's troops.
In order to avoid the chaotic situation that occurred during the last drill, Han Zhenjiang and his staff officers received the drill map and just finished the initial deployment of the troops. Then, they designated the two sets of mobile defense plans for the various troops in the event that they lost contact with them.
