Qu Sen looked in the direction of the voice and saw a Private First Class wearing a camouflage uniform and a camouflage cap higher up the hill. He was carrying something that looked like a '60 Fireball' and had half of his body exposed from the bushes to greet Qu Sen.
"Class Monitor Guan?" Qu Sen recognized the person at a glance and shouted in surprise.
The person who called him was Guan Yun, whom he met during the military tournament.
"You two are from the Armored Regiment to snipe the Blues?" Guan Yun asked.
"Yes!" Qu Sen answered, but he was wondering how Guan Yun knew that he and Hao Pingan were sent by the Armored Division. Wasn't that warrior who was asking about the situation a little too fast?
"Come up, your commander ordered your rocket team to move with us." Just as Qu Sen was wondering, Guan Yun spoke again.
Qu Sen and Hao Pingan looked at each other. Although they were confused, they still ran towards Guan Yun's hiding place.
After hiding behind the grass, Qu Sen learned from Guan Yun's explanation that the Air Defense Regiment, the command center of the second battalion that carried out the air defense mission on the south side of Highland 244, had contacted the commander of the Armored Regiment while Qu Sen and Hao Pingan were on the run.
Both sides used short-wave radios.
The Armored Regiment was equipped with short-wave radios for the convenience of command. The second battalion under the Air Defense Regiment was equipped with individual air defense weapons. During wartime, they often had to carry out scattered air defense missions in units such as companies, platoons, or even air defense teams. For the convenience of command, the short-wave radios were assigned to platoon level units.
After the liaison sent by the second battalion of the Air Defense Regiment asked Hao Pingan about the designation and mission of the armored unit that suddenly appeared, he ran directly to the command vehicle of the Armored Regiment and told the Armored Regiment about the radio frequency band of their battalion.
Although short-wave radios had a short transmission distance, they had one advantage, which was that they had strong anti-interference capabilities. Therefore, with the Blue Team's full-band radio interference, although the communication quality and transmission distance were greatly reduced, they could still be used within the effective range.
The commander of the armored regiment couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard the words of the commanders of the two units. It must be known that individual anti-aircraft missiles could not only hit low-flying aircraft, but they could also hit armored units through optical targeting.
With the addition of a battalion of the Air Defense Regiment, the success rate of the rescue of the Tank Regiment and the pursuit of the Blue Team increased by more than half.
This was because the highest commanding officer of the Armored Regiment was at the regimental level, while the commanding officer of the 2nd Battalion of the Air Defense Regiment was at the battalion level. According to the regulations, the commander of the armored regiment automatically became the temporary commander of the two units when the two sides cooperated in battle.
Just as the regiment commander of the armored regiment was working together with the air defense battalion to perfect the plan based on the new changes, the farthest observation post of the air defense regiment reported that they had already seen tanks with the red team logo retreating in this direction through their binoculars. However, for the time being, they could only see a few cars in the lead. It was impossible to determine how many there were.
Due to the interference of the short-wave radio, the Armored Regiment could not receive the report from the observation post. They could only listen to the transmission from the intermediate unit.
In order not to expose the target, the regiment commander of the armored regiment immediately ordered the five assault vehicles hidden in the front to quickly retreat. In addition, through the radio, he requested the air defense battalion's company and platoon commanders who could receive the signal: "Seize the time to hide and prepare to receive the enemy. Use the tank blocking position to fire as the attack signal."
At the same time, he ordered: "After the order has been transmitted to all units, enter radio silence."
Because the short-wave radio of Guan Yun's platoon was closer to the command vehicle of the tank regiment, it was one of the first units to receive the order. After the platoon commander relayed the order through the radio, he also had someone pass the order to the various combat units under his command.
When the more than 30 tanks and several fuel trucks that the tank regiment had withdrawn all appeared in the binoculars of the Air Defense Regiment's observation post soldiers, the various anti-aircraft missiles and "60 Fire" combat units that were scattered in the forest on both sides of the tank blocking position had all found a blocking point and completed their disguise.
Soon, the retreating tank regiment finally entered the range of the short-wave radio. Because the regiment commander of the armored regiment was worried about the endless high-tech methods of the Blue Team, he did not dare to directly expose the position of the blocking position on the radio.
Instead, he had a staff officer contact them through the public channel, falsely claiming that it was the observation post of the Air Defense Regiment, and told the tank regiment: "After passing through the valley on the south side of Highland 244, immediately turn north. The Air Defense Regiment has set up blocking positions on both sides of the dense forest about seven kilometers away."
After the tank regiment received the reply, they drove at full speed toward the valley on the south side of Highland 244, bringing along billowing smoke and dust.
The facts proved that the caution of the regiment commander of the armored regiment was very necessary. The Blue Team's pursuit troops were indeed equipped with high-power short-wave full-frequency monitoring equipment.
Because the monitoring equipment's anti-interference ability was stronger, when the short-wave radio of the tank regiment received the guidance order from the armored regiment, they also captured the signal.
"Reporting to the battalion commander, the monitoring team has reported that the tank regiment has just received the guidance order from the Red Team's Air Defense Regiment's observation post. The Air Defense Regiment has set up blocking positions in the dense forest about seven kilometers north after passing through the valley on the south side of Highland 244."
Behind the remnants of the Red Team's tank regiment was the Blue Team's pursuit troops, with the Anti-Armor Quick Reaction Battalion as the backbone and two companies of assault vehicles as support. The leader of the Anti-Armor Quick Reaction Battalion was the battalion commander of the Anti-Armor Quick Reaction Battalion.
Under the pursuit of this highly mobile force, the remnants of the tank regiment would have been wiped out long ago. But the commander of the Red Team's tank regiment was very smart. The route he chose to break out of the encirclement was mainly the terrain of the valley, so the Blue Team's pursuit troops could not find the opportunity to spread out their formation to pursue at high speed and flank.
Moreover, because the terrain was narrow, the Red Team's tanks that were "destroyed" by the Blue Team deliberately stopped horizontally or blocked the path that was easy to pass through, creating even more trouble for the pursuit troops.
The frustration of not being able to fully utilize the strength of his troops troubled the commander of the Blue Team's pursuit troops along the way. When he heard the monitoring team's report, he knew that he would not be able to achieve his goal today.
From the moment he had launched the pursuit, he had been in the command vehicle studying the geographical information of the direction that the Red Team's tanks had escaped in. Now, he didn't need to look at the map to know that the dense forest mentioned in the intelligence report was indeed an excellent place to stop the enemy.
Moreover, the Blue Team's unmanned reconnaissance aircraft had been shot down in this area yesterday, which meant that there was indeed a Red Team's anti-air force stationed in this area. Moreover, the tanks of his own troops were only equipped with light armor. The Red Team's empty firepower was extremely lethal against this type of unit. At the same time, his own side did not have the advantage in terms of range.
What the commander of the Blue Team's pursuit troops could think of, the staff officer beside him could also think of the same thing. So, he asked his commander, "Battalion Commander, are we still chasing?"
"Chase! Why aren't we chasing? "The commander of the Blue Team's pursuit troops replied aggressively.
He unfolded the map and pointed to the area after passing through the valley on the south side of Highland 244. "The distance from here to the Red Team's blocking position is relatively wide. We can use our speed advantage to viciously bite the tank regiment in front of us.
We'll chase until we are three kilometers away from their blocking position and then turn around. The Red Team's anti-air force isn't mobile enough. If we don't want to fight, they can only watch us leave. Also, contact command and see if they can send out the air force to blow up the dense forest area. It's not easy for that group of rats to gather together. It'd be a pity not to hit them. "
