"You mean Lao Gao might guess your thoughts and focus on guarding against our special forces soldiers?"
"Definitely, he definitely will."
Just as Fang Zhenhua said, the most dangerous person is often the one who knows you best.
At the 116th Division headquarters, Gao Degong issued the first military order, which instructed the entire division to raise its alert level and strictly prevent the intrusion of the DA Division's special operations brigade.
The political commissar of the 116th Division was somewhat puzzled by Gao Degong's arrangement. He vaguely guessed Gao Degong's intentions, but they were not clear enough.
So he asked directly.
"Old Gao, are you that worried about the DA Division's special operations brigade?"
"Political Commissar, you don't know this! As the father of special operations in the entire army, Lao Fang really likes to use the term 'special operations,' which is an unconventional way of fighting. Its core is to keep you guessing."
"But does he expect the special operations team to launch an attack on us?"
As the second captain of the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade, Gao Degong was highly skilled in special operations. After hearing the political commissar's words, he immediately shook his head.
“No military superpower in the world would send special forces to attack its main force, because that would be suicidal. However, special forces soldiers have strong individual combat skills and can play many unexpected roles.”
"For example, if they find our command post and carry out a decapitation strike, or if they find the location of our troops, don't forget that the DA Division is an informationized force. The core of the operation of an informationized force is to find your location and then quickly launch a devastating attack on you."
The political commissar knew his old partner quite well. In the past two years, Gao Degong had also been studying information warfare, and his main books were from Fang Zhenhua.
Therefore, Gao Degong and Fang Zhenhua are a match made in heaven, as they both have a deep understanding of each other.
"I don't know if the DA division is equipped with electronic detection equipment. I don't even dare to turn on the radar, because if I do, they might be able to detect my signal."
"It seems this DA master is indeed difficult to deal with."
"Otherwise, how do you think they managed to be invincible throughout the Southeast Military Region?"
The 116th Division is definitely an elite force. Gao Degong ordered the entire division to be on high alert, and the DA Division's special operations brigade felt the most pressure.
They could clearly sense that they had not yet pinpointed the exact location of the 116th Division, but the 116th Division had raised its alert level by more than one level.
Gao Dazhuang and Lei Keming, two special operations teams, joined forces, clad in snow camouflage uniforms, and lay prone on the snow-covered plains of Northeast China.
When Gao Dazhuang saw the tight security through his binoculars, he couldn't help but say to Lei Keming.
"Captain Gao is too ruthless. He's trying to completely crush our special operations brigade! Look, this is just the visible security force. Who knows how many hidden sentries there are in the shadows."
Lei Keming glanced at it and said calmly.
“That’s not surprising. If we didn’t do that, we wouldn’t be Captain Gao. He knows our special forces’ operational methods all too well.”
"What do you propose?"
"If Captain Gao has a brilliant plan, we'll find a way to get around it. Don't forget that our special forces' greatest advantage is asymmetric warfare. Let's find an opportunity tonight to strike when someone is alone."
"You're planning to change into the enemy's uniform and infiltrate their camp?"
"Otherwise what? Captain Gao understands the special forces' combat mode, but he can't control every soldier in the division. The soldiers of the 116th Division are indeed elites, but compared to our Wolf Fang, they are like grandsons meeting their grandfathers."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
The two special operations teams led by Gao Dazhuang and Lei Keming were all elites of the Wolf Fang.
As Lei Keming himself said, although Gao Degong had raised the alert level, he could not control every soldier, so he was naturally easy for the special forces to seize the opportunity.
The two special operations teams lay prone in the snow for half a day. Everyone knows how cold the weather is in Northeast China. The temperature drops even further at night, so it's easy to become complacent in such situations.
But the soldiers of the Wolf Fang Special Forces are all brave warriors who dare to go through fire and water. They have gone deep into Northeast China for training more than once, and they have become accustomed to this kind of cold weather.
That night, while a guard platoon was resting, elite special forces from Wolf Fang infiltrated the tent, each carrying a dagger, and held it to the neck of the guard platoon's soldier.
"Gao Dazhuang said in a low voice."
"You have all perished."
The special forces soldiers quickly eliminated all the guards and then changed into their uniforms.
After leaving the tent, Gao Dazhuang asked Lei Keming a question.
"Old Lei, what are you planning to do next?"
"Capture another unit and ask them for the code."
Xiao Gao gave Lei Keming a thumbs up.
"Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. I just wonder if Captain Gao will skin you alive when he finds out."
"Hahaha, with Captain Fang leading the charge, what do I have to be afraid of?"
The group of people changed into the uniforms of the 116th Division, with red armbands tied around their arms to show that they were from the Red Army.
They stayed in the tent until the next morning before going out.
The guards of the 116th Division looked at this group of people with bloodshot eyes. If looks could kill, Gao Dazhuang, Lei Keming and the others would have died countless times.
After leaving the camp and walking for a kilometer, we ran into a squad of guards.
Lei Keming asked loudly.
"Crush the DA Division, report back?"
Lei Keming naturally didn't know what the reply was, but the password sounded somewhat familiar to him, and he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and replied.
"Capture Fang Zhenhua alive."
Seeing them approaching, Gao Dazhuang and his men couldn't help but twitch their lips slightly. Captain Gao was definitely retaliating.
When the two units came together, the elite of the Wolf Fang immediately sprang into action, taking down all the guards in the squad.
After finishing, he said one sentence.
"Comrades, you have fallen in battle. We are sorry."
The news of the annihilation of two guard units was immediately relayed to the 116th Division headquarters.
The political commissar looked at Gao Degong and asked.
"Commander, the DA Division's special operations battalion has penetrated deep inside. What should we do?"
Gao Degong sat in his chair, speaking with a blank expression.
"It's not surprising. If they can't even do this much, then they have no face to be members of the Wolf Fang. Send out our special operations company and let the special forces capture the special forces."
"understood."
As the second commander of the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade, Gao Degong could not possibly fail to establish a special forces unit within his own troops.
The 116th Division Special Operations Company was his masterpiece.
However, Fang Zhenhua's side has always been using a two-pronged approach. Just when the 116th Division's special operations company was capturing Gao Dazhuang and Lei Keming, the Sky Eye system made its contribution.
The Sky Eye system, through space-based weapons, detected the locations of several main units of the 116th Division, including their armored regiment, artillery regiment, and anti-aircraft artillery regiment, as well as the army aviation regiment and missile regiment assigned by the Northeast Military Region.
The information team immediately transmitted this information to all units through the Sky Ear system.
The two surface-to-surface tactical missile battalions of the missile brigade immediately aimed their missiles at all targets.
Simultaneously, the army aviation brigade carried out the order, took off, and flew towards the 116th Division's armored regiment.
At the 116th Division command post, the phone kept ringing, all from the exercise directing department.
"The entire missile regiment of the 116th Division was killed in action."
"The entire 116th Division Air Force Regiment was killed in action."
"The entire artillery regiment of the 116th Division was killed in action."
A series of news reports so devastated that the political commissar of the 116th Division collapsed into his chair.
On the other hand, Gao Degong had a bitter smile on his face.
"Old Gao, how did they do that? How did this battle turn out like this?"
When asked by the political commissar, Gao Degong shook his head.
"I was afraid of their electronic jamming equipment before, and I didn't even dare to turn on the radar. I didn't expect that the DA division would seize the opportunity this time."
"If I'm not mistaken, they must be equipped with newer electronic information equipment, and we're right under their noses."
The political commissar looked incredulous.
"Can you still fight like this?"
"If I'm not mistaken, their information equipment must be combined with satellite weapons, so there's no way to fight them."
"How are we going to explain this to the military region?"
"Explain? How can we explain? The military region's leaders have all seen this; they're right here in the command post. We don't need to explain."
"Alright, no need to sigh! Although we were defeated, it's good news for the entire army. It proves that we've chosen the right path of informatization."
Chapter 141 The Qi Family's General Star
Gao Degong was beaten particularly badly this time. The top-notch ace division of the Northeast Military Region was completely unable to withstand the DA Division.
In the exercise's directing staff, the deputy commander of the Northeast Military Region looked extremely displeased.
This deputy commander was extremely dissatisfied with the fighting performance of the 116th Division.
He felt that the military region had provided the 116th Division with missile units and army aviation units, giving it such great support, yet they still suffered a defeat, which was unacceptable.
This is not because the deputy commander is too arrogant, nor is it because he is too harsh.
Judging from the strength of the seven military regions, the Northeast Military Region is one of the strongest in the entire army. For the past few decades, they have been the front line in resisting the north.
Over the years, it's perfectly normal for the Northeast Military Region to have high morale.
So, being beaten so badly for the first time, this deputy commander of the military region was naturally not happy.
Especially since the directors' office included leaders from the other six military regions, this was a huge embarrassment for them.
This deputy commander seemed to sense that the leaders of the other six military regions were mocking him, laughing at how easily the Northeast Military Region could be defeated.
But he was mistaken; the person sitting next to him was He Baoguo, the deputy commander of the Southeast Military Region.
He Baoguo sensed something was off about the person next to him, so he coughed softly and said in a low voice.
“Old Zheng, you don’t need to be so angry. Our three elite divisions in the Southeast Military Region were swept away by the DA Division, and the resistance time was even shorter than that of your 116th Division.”
"I said with a frown," Deputy Commander Zheng said.
"I've heard about this too. Is Master DA really that powerful?"
"Old Zheng, you still know too little about information warfare. I used to be like you, finding it hard to accept, but after learning about information warfare, the more I understand, the more I realize that today's victory was inevitable."
"How to say?"
"In the face of informationized warfare, whether it is motorized or mechanized, it is already an outdated product. Defeat is inevitable. I suggest you study carefully what informationized warfare is."
As he spoke, He Baoguo moved a book next to him in front of Deputy Commander Zheng.
This book, written by Fang Zhenhua, is titled "New Era Warfare Methods: An Exploration of Three-Dimensional Informationized Warfare."
Deputy Commander Zheng picked up his glasses from the table and opened the book.
Sitting on his other side was the deputy commander of the Northwest Military Region. He leaned over to look at him, when the deputy chief of staff coughed loudly.
"What's the use of praying to Buddha only when you're not doing it properly? Instead of trying to figure out what information warfare is, we should use our brains to figure out how to win against others."
These words were addressed to the deputy commander of the Northwest Military Region, because the DA Division's next opponent was none other than the Northwest Military Region.
If you were to read these books on information warfare now, it would undoubtedly be considered cheating, and the Deputy Chief of Staff certainly wouldn't allow it at this point.
This live-fire exercise was not only to test the combat effectiveness of the DA Division, but also to give the entire army a profound feeling that we are outdated and that if we do not learn, we will only harm the country and the people.
Only by making them feel pain and fear will they be able to study seriously instead of trying to find ways to cheat.
Upon hearing the deputy chief of staff's words, the deputy commander of the Northwest Military Region couldn't help but shrink back.
Despite the "deputy" in his title, this deputy chief of staff is of the same rank as the commander of a military region.
After defeating the 116th Division, the DA Division rested for a week before the new mission from the directing department was announced.
The DA Division's second opponent was the 61st Division from the Northwest Military Region.
The Northwest Military Region has two group armies under its command: one is a Class A group army, and the other is a Class B group army.
That Class A army consisted of three divisions, two of which were Northern Class B infantry divisions, and the remaining one was a Northern Class A motorized infantry division, namely the 61st Division.
The 61st Division has a glorious history and is nicknamed the "Iron Red Army Division," a title that reflects how ancient their history is.
