"Captain!"
"Captain!"
…
In the captain's office, two squadron captains and more than a dozen squadron captains have been waiting for a long time. When Lin Feng came in, everyone stood up and saluted.
"Don't be polite, sit down."
Lin Feng took the lead to sit down, and then the others sat down one by one.
Although in terms of seniority, Lin Feng is far behind the two squadron captains, or even most of the squadron captains, the ranks in the army are strict, and it is not the seniority, but the rank and position that determine the status of a soldier. Besides, Lin Feng is Lin Xiaoting's granddaughter and the driver of the "Fire Phoenix".
However, when entering, Lin Feng noticed that everyone looked at her differently.
As for why, Lin Feng knew very well.
"Everyone, I believe you have received the order. I won’t say more nonsense, the mobilization order has been issued, and the special reconnaissance brigade has entered a wartime state in time. I hope everyone will remember that the special reconnaissance brigade is in peace or war. It will always be a sharp knife in the third theater." Lin Feng glanced at the sitting captain, and said, "Where there is fighting, we are there. Where we are needed, there are our personnel. As the saying goes, raise soldiers. Thousand days of military use for a while. The millennium of peace and prosperity has come to an end. You have twelve hours. At that time, I don’t want any accidents. If you have any problems, tell them now and don’t mention them later."
Lin Feng was serious, no one dared to make a joke.
Besides, the mobilization order issued by Zhan Ruilin has been issued to the troops at all levels through the theater headquarters. These squadron leaders and squadron leaders returned to the special reconnaissance team headquarters after receiving the order. If you say, before this, there were people who suspected that this was an exercise. So after Lin Feng said these words sternly, no one dared to doubt. The war is about to break out, and the time has come to embody and prove the value of soldiers.
With a correct attitude, other problems will not be a problem.
Although the peace and prosperity lasted for a thousand years, the tradition of the army has not been abandoned, especially in the special reconnaissance team. As early as hundreds of years ago, at the beginning of the establishment of the Special Investigation Team, Zhan Ruilin formulated a series of plans for the outbreak of war. What Lin Feng and others have to do now is to complete the mobilization in accordance with these plans, put all officers and soldiers on standby, and make preparations to go to the battlefield and perform tasks.
In terms of nature, the special reconnaissance team is an elite special force.
Although the garrison, fleet, and marines all have special forces, their combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the special reconnaissance group. According to Zhan Ruilin's plan when he formed the special reconnaissance brigade, the main task of the special reconnaissance brigade in wartime is to act as a sharp knife and perform difficult tasks that other units cannot complete.
Of course, this is only Zhan Ruilin's vision, and it was a vision hundreds of years ago.
What the special reconnaissance team can and should do depends on the battlefield situation.
In fact, Lin Xiaoting had already hinted at Lin Feng before then.
Although the Federal Assembly has passed the war proposal, when Lin Feng returned to the headquarters of the special reconnaissance brigade, the federal authorities also issued a war mobilization order. The war zones started internal mobilization more than ten hours ago, but enough to complete the mobilization Much time.
Take the third theater, even if it is only partially mobilized, it will take a week.
In peacetime, in order to reduce military expenditure, the military in the third theater is divided into three levels according to the degree of importance. The fleet and the Marine Corps are Class A units, and they maintain a full force rate of over 80% at all times. The garrison is a Class B unit, with a full-strength rate of only 60%. The security forces of the theater headquarters and the garrisons in various places are Class C troops, and the full force rate in peacetime is only 40%.
It can be seen that even Class A troops need to be recruited through war mobilization after the outbreak of war.
Although the federal authorities and various theaters have issued laws and regulations for wartime mobilization, it still takes a lot of time to complete the mobilization, especially to recruit enough soldiers. Take the fleet as an example, the main targets of wartime mobilization and enlistment are veterans who have signed reserve contracts. Relatively speaking, the problem of recruiting soldiers for Category A troops in wartime is not too big. After all, most soldiers will sign reserve contracts with the military before they retire. The problem of enlistment of Type B and Type C troops is more prominent. In addition to the larger gap, it is also related to the lack of qualified personnel. Take the garrison force as an example, even if it can recruit enough soldiers, it will be mainly recruits. As a result, recruited recruits need to be trained. Even according to wartime standards, it takes one month to complete basic training.
Obviously, war mobilization is an extremely troublesome and extremely long affair.
At the beginning of the Fifth Greenwich War, the Human Federation took a year to complete the basic war mobilization, but by the time Xiao Wentian led the army to the lighthouse star garrison, the full mobilization was not completed. It was not until the fifth year after the end of the Beacon Star offensive and defensive battle that the Human Federation was fully mobilized.
The question is, will the Silicon Magic Alliance wait until the Human Federation is mobilized before launching an offensive
The answer is obviously no.
Judging from the previous Greenwich Wars, especially the Fifth Greenwich War, the key to whether the human confederation can persist and win the final victory is whether it can withstand the enemy's attack at the beginning of the war. It can be said that as long as the Human Federation completes the mobilization for a full-scale war, forms thousands of legions, armed with hundreds of millions of soldiers, the human legions are almost invincible on the battlefield.
Obviously, the ability to withstand the enemy's attack at the beginning of the war depends not on the soldiers recruited during the war, but the standing army of the Federation.
The special reconnaissance team is the standing army.
Although in terms of organization, the special reconnaissance squadron is subordinate to the theater headquarters and is a C-level force, but at any time, the full-force rate of the special reconnaissance squad is 100%.
In fact, the Special Reconnaissance Group is also the only unit in the third theater that is full during peacetime.
For hundreds of years, Zhan Ruilin has always attached great importance to the Special Reconnaissance Brigade. In addition to hoping to consolidate Lin Xiaoting’s position through the Special Reconnaissance Brigade and let Lin Xiaoting contain Luo Zhenyu and Du Wantu, he also fought with the Special Reconnaissance Brigade during wartime, especially in the early stages of the war The value of the special reconnaissance group is the only unit that can exert its full combat effectiveness in the early stage of the war in the third theater, and it is also the only unit that can engage the enemy's main force on the frontal battlefield.
It can be said that in the early days of the war, the special reconnaissance team was the Dinghai Shenzhen in the third theater.
It is correct to say that it is a fire brigade.
The point is that the defense line of the third theater is too long.
Although it is the first of the three major war zones, regardless of the size of the troops or the combat power of the troops, the third war zone is ranked first among the nine war zones of the human federation, and is even equivalent to the sum of the first and second war zones. The defense line of the three theaters is also very long, accounting for 40% of the Greenwich defense line. As a result, in peacetime, it is impossible for the Third Theater to deploy enough troops on this long line of defense.
In the face of a sudden enemy attack, the security forces responsible for guarding the Greenwich Line in peacetime appeared vulnerable.
that's the truth.
Take Post 828 as an example, more than a thousand officers and soldiers fought bravely, but only persisted for a few days. If it hadn't been for Kutum to throw a rat avoidance device, I am afraid that Yang Yi and the others would have nothing to do. For the Silicon Magic Alliance, there is no need to conquer the entire line of defense. Just open a few breakthroughs to turn the Greenwich line of defense that has been painstakingly managed by the Human Federation for a thousand years into a display. Because it is a passive defense, it is impossible for the Human Federation to strengthen the entire line of defense. It can only use mobile units such as special reconnaissance teams to plug loopholes and ensure that the line of defense is intact.
For this reason, Lin Xiaoting specifically mentioned that he has assembled the mobile unit of the theater headquarters to provide support to the special reconnaissance team at any time.
However, what Lin Feng and other officers and soldiers of the special reconnaissance brigade can do now is to wait patiently.
The communication system has been synchronized, and the theater command has sent a steady stream of news from various battlefields so that the officers and soldiers of the special reconnaissance brigade can keep abreast of the battle.
It was the first and second theaters that were under attack. Thousands of forward posts have already been attacked. Although there are no exact statistics, according to the news sent back from the front line, the Silicon Magic Alliance has invested thousands of legions. This battle seemed to break through the defense lines of the first and second theaters in one fell swoop.
Obviously, this is just an illusion.
The first theater of defense is to the west of the Greenwich meteorite belt, the second theater of defense is to the east, and the third theater is responsible for the first central defense. Although judging from the momentum of the enemy's offensive, it seems to be like a detour from the first and second theaters, using a pincer offensive to outflank the rear of the third theater. The problem is that it takes enough time to break through the defense lines between the first theater and the second theater, and the third theater is entirely possible to complete the mobilization work before that. If the enemy continues to exert force in the first and second theaters, the third theater can seize the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
Lin Feng is not a staff officer of the theater headquarters, and can see at a glance the enemy's offensive actions.
There is no doubt that the enemy's goal is not to make a breakthrough from the first and second theaters, but to have other plans. Perhaps as Lin Xiaoting said, Kutum first used the first and second theaters of war, just to make the human federation fight inward, thereby disintegrating the human army's will to resist. Simply put, if the commanders of the first and second theaters believe that the third theater has caused the war and suffer heavy losses as a result, and the third theater is unscathed, doubts will arise, and even doubts The motives for the war in the three theaters. Even if Zhan Ruilin can explain clearly, as long as the question arises, it will inevitably have an irreversible impact on future combat operations.
Action must be taken, and there must be no standing sidelines.
This was Lin Feng's thought, and it was also the view of Lin Xiaoting and other senior generals.
However, it is not Lin Feng or Lin Xiaoting who has the command of the third theater, but Zhan Ruilin. Only Zhan Ruilin can decide when, in what way, and how much troops to use in the third theater, and only after Zhan Ruilin gives orders, can all levels of troops take action.
So, what is Zhan Ruilin waiting for
