Everything is done step by step.

The first thing to do is to enter the predetermined location.

When we arrived, it was already night.

Since the reconnaissance battalion is under direct command of the division headquarters and undertakes guard tasks, the camp of the reconnaissance battalion is very close to the division command post, that is, the Blue Army Command.

It was already night when we arrived at the camping site.

Field camping has a lot to be busy with for a battalion-level unit.

The stationing locations, post dispatch, battalion establishment, etc. of each company are all given priority.

In addition, a company must be sent to serve as a warning to the headquarters.

The reconnaissance camp usually insists on field training for a long time, so it is already familiar with camping.

The main venue of this exercise is in the area of ​​Reclining Buddha Ridge, which is about 30 kilometers away from Reclining Buddha Ridge, and is located between two hills.

The terrain is easy to hide and defend.

After a few steps, the temporary camp site of the reconnaissance battalion was arranged, all the equipment was pulled onto the disguise net, and the temporary fortifications of the post were not taken much time.

1st Company Commander Lin Dehua quickly came to the battalion headquarters to report to Zhuang Yan, saying that everything had been arranged.

Since Zhuang Yan was promoted to deputy company commander, the first platoon commander Lin Dehua took over as the first company commander, and the deputy company commander was Yang Yanjin, the former second platoon commander.

The 1st Platoon Leader is now Niu Shilin who has graduated from the military academy. This is also the old class platoon he grew up with. He is familiar with his skills and is easy to manage.

Xu Er went to the military teaching team two years ago. After returning from a year of training, he took over the position of platoon leader of the second platoon.

These two soldiers were cultivated by solemnly and were considered to be the two-yuan tiger generals in the first company.

After Lin Dehua left, Zhuang Yan suddenly thought about it and said to the correspondent: "Xiao Chen, go and find Deputy Battalion Commander Yan."

The Deputy Battalion Commander Yan he mentioned was actually Yan Qi, the captain of the former drone team. He was a high-tech officer and later promoted the Deputy Battalion Commander.

"yes!"

After Xiao Chen stood at the right moment, he turned around and ran away.

Soon, Yan Qi appeared at the entrance of the tent of the command center.

"Battery Commander, what's the matter with me?"

"I said I couldn't find you at the command center, so I asked Xiao Chen to find you." Zhuang Yan said.

Yan Qi replied: "I just went to the drone team to take a look, and I'm not worried about them."

"I've been the deputy battalion commander, and I've been talking about my drone team all day long." Instructor Lu Xiao smiled and said, "You should let go and let the newcomers exercise."

After Yan Qi left the drone team, a new young lieutenant named Gao Feng came to take over his position. He was a college student from a military academy. He was a technical student and had many tricks. After he arrived, he really achieved some results and optimized some technical details of the drone. He was commended by the group army and made contributions.

"The peak time is short, so I feel at ease when it comes to technology, but when it comes to field training and exercises, it is still a little bit tender, so I still have to pass on the help of the help," said Yan Qi.

The conversation changed and his eyes turned to solemnity.

"Battery Commander, are you in such a hurry to find me? "

Solemnly nodded: "Yes."

After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the tent, looking around at the door.

Lu Xiao and Yan Qi were puzzled, but they followed him out and stood beside Zhuangyan.

Solemnly looked at the watch.

It was ten:20 at night.

Zhuang Yan said: "Deputy Battalion Commander Yan, go to the camp of the drone team and let them release a drone, conduct a reconnaissance and calibration of the defense areas around us."

"Reconnaissance? Calibration?" Yan Qi was a little confused.

It’s okay to calibrate, this is a way to quickly become familiar with the terrain and landform.

A commander enters a place to camp. After choosing a command center, he not only needs to send a warning team and a post, but also needs to reconnaise the surrounding area and be familiar with the surrounding field environment.

From a war perspective, general commanders have a battlefield topographic map, and now there are satellite data maps in their computers. Many things can be understood without leaving home.

However, no matter what the paper data is, it is necessary to conduct on-site confirmation.

It doesn't hurt to calibrate and review it.

"Yes, a reconnaissance must be carried out within ten kilometers of the headquarters." said Zhuang Yan.

Yan Qi's eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "With the command? Aren't you doing calibration?"

"Not only do calibration, but also tell the drone team to conduct infrared heat source searches to see if there are people lurking around us from the Red Army." said Zhuang Yan.

Yan Qi's expression became stiff, then relaxed, and he couldn't help laughing twice: "This exercise has not started yet. We have just entered the exercise field. Battalion Commander, are you worried that the Red Army will appear near us? How is that possible!"

In Yan Qi's view, this Red and Blue Army confrontation was an open confrontation, but in fact it was a script.

Since there are ready-made scripts, it's just like an actor. Listen to the director, how to move and how to put it in. Not to mention the Blue Army, even the Red Army will not dare to move around.

Whoever dares to move is that it is a violation of discipline, confrontation with the director's department, and disobeying military orders.

At the least, you will be criticized, and at the worst, you will be punished.

Therefore, in Yan Qi's view, solemn worries are purely unnecessary.

Zhuangyan glanced at Yan Qi who was still standing next to her and said, "What are you still doing here? Go."

Zhuang Yan is the acting battalion commander, that is, Yan Qi's superior, so Yan Qi has nothing to say.

Obey orders and obey commands, the duty of a soldier.

So he saluted and said, "Yes."

A turn around and trot disappeared into the darkness.

"I'm saying you're too suspicious?" The instructor Lu Xiao also felt solemn and nervous: "It's late at night, we ran for about twenty hours in a row, so we should let everyone take a break early. There may be a task tomorrow."

Zhuangyan looked at the starry sky in the distance, dazed out for a while, and then said, "If you were on the battlefield, how could you have time to rest..."

Lu Xiao was stunned and then laughed.

He understands solemnity.

Zhuang Yan is a stubborn guy. His persistence in certain things cannot be told by others. He will do whatever he decides and will not change it.

This is his usual style.

Fortunately, Lu Xiao himself is peaceful and is just right with Zhuangyan. He is both hard and soft, and he is still at peace.

"Instructor, you go and rest, I'll check the Chagang."

Zhuang Yan couldn't rest assured, so he picked up the flashlight and wanted to leave.

Lu Xiao thought for a while and chased after him: "Wait, I'll go with you."

Zhuang Yan did not refuse. The two of them walked along the low-high grass and went up to the hills on the right, and began patrolling along the places where several companies were stationed and the guards for defense.

"Instructor, what are you going to do after you change your career?" As he walked, he solemnly looked for topics to chat.

Lu Xiao said: "Well, what else can I do? Let's go out and make a fuss."

Zhuang Yan said: "I heard that you chose to choose your own job and don't have job arrangements?"

Lu Xiao said: "Well, that's right. I've told you before."

Zhuang Yan said: "I remember, but I thought you were kidding, you don't want a job? You have to choose your own job?"

Lu Xiao is a person who seeks stability and is somewhat conservative.

This has been settled after several years of contact with Zhuang Yan.

In theory, when an officer who transfers a job, he usually chooses to be assigned by the state, and then he will have a relatively stable administrative unit, and then another salary that is less than the top and less than the bottom. His wife and children will live a peaceful life.

But unexpectedly, the instructor who has always been seeking stability suddenly chose to choose his own career.

Although there is a guaranteed salary for self-employment every month, compared to those with units, there are still fewer benefits.

"You must be very surprised why I chose my own career, right?" Lu Xiao glanced at Zhuang Yan, then continued to turn his head and looked ahead, and said as he walked: "In your eyes, I am a cautious, conservative and stable person. How could I choose this way of career change? Right?"

Zhuang Yan had no choice but to admit it and nodded, "Yes, I do think so."

Lu Xiao said: "This person is such a strange animal. I have been seeking stability for the first half of my life. If I have changed my career, I will never make a fuss. This life will pass in the blink of an eye. Looking back in the future, it will be boring..."

Zhuangyan said, "You are just trying to make a fuss?"

Lu Xiao smiled and shook his head gently: "That can't be entirely because of this. I have an old comrade in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone now. He is different from me. He has long since changed his career and chose to choose his own job there to do foreign trade business. In recent years, e-commerce has become more and more popular every year. They have bought their goods all over the world. I plan to join him this time, and he also hopes that I will go there and learn from him first. When the conditions are ripe in the future, I will do it myself. Comrade! Who won't help who?"

As he said that, his voice slowly sinks.

Suddenly, he said: "To put it bluntly, there is another reason. I am also for my own children. Your sister-in-law has no job and her household registration is still in her hometown. If I change my career, I have to go back to my hometown together. My hometown is a small county town, and the economy is not as developed as the coastal areas. Why do we become parents? Isn't it for my children to have a good foundation for their children? How can I say a fashionable saying over the years? Is it because my children are letting them lose at the starting line."

Zhuang Yan didn't expect that Lu Xiao, the always cautious instructor, would give up returning to his hometown to hold a job because of his children.

This courage is really rare.

He suddenly felt that maybe he had never really understood Lu Xiao.

Perhaps, because of being a father, Lu Xiao surprised and surprised Zhuangyan.
