Chapter 5: Pre-War Mobilization
Temporary, temporary, I just wanted you to take a look first, the official document will be sent over shortly, I am also considering your situation. Originally, time is tight, to avoid you being flustered later, I will leave first, please, please... "Xiao Nan quickly responded with 'You're welcome'.
Watching the soldiers grow continuously, I truly feel a bit old, sigh... not as I was in my younger days. " The tall squad leader sighed, saying, "Age is unforgiving!
"What good tea can you still buy?" Gao Dadu joked.
Ten sets of standard German mountain warfare camouflage
To be honest, under the current circumstances, it is not particularly difficult for the 'Tank' to prepare all these assorted equipment overnight. These items are not considered special in the Longyan Special Forces; weapons such as the AK74U, SV98, and RPK74 are readily available in the armory, and they are all original products. As for the mountain camouflage and the 'Dragon Scale Armor' bulletproof vests, those are also not an issue. However, being located at the Xinjiang border, even air transport will require time.
It is ! ''
The task was completed well this time and is worthy of commendation The tall team and Political Commissar Qin watched the soldiers nodding in satisfaction under the shade of the trees by the training ground
... ...
"Report to the squad leader, no." Xiao Nan stood at attention and replied
On the training ground, Xiao Nan is conducting physical training with the soldiers, striving to exhaust every ounce of their surplus energy.
"Hmm... As the squad leader, leading the team on missions and serving as the commander in times of war, you must understand that the burden on your shoulders is not light. The lives of the soldiers are in your hands. How you take them out is how you must bring them back," Captain Gao said to Xiao Nan, with a serious and earnest tone.
Yes, I understand. This was a clear response from Xiao Nan.
Captain Gao cleared his throat, looked at the team members, and said slowly: "Although the situation in Afghanistan is turbulent, we still cannot openly carry out military operations abroad. To avoid unnecessary troubles and to prevent giving other governments an excuse to make a fuss, this operation must be swift and decisive. You have no names, no identities, and cannot use domestically produced weapons. If you are captured or sacrificed, your identities will not be recognized by the government. Do you understand?"
In the briefing room, the briefing has just been completed
AK74U seven pieces ... ... base ammunition 2
Indeed, the soldiers have become increasingly mature, no longer the wild youngsters they were when they first arrived. Political Commissar Qin observed Man Niu overcoming obstacles: "Niu Sen has also become much more experienced; who would have thought that the current version of him was once a reckless youth who only knew how to fight with others."
Captain Gao nodded in satisfaction: "According to intelligence reports, this group of arms dealers is well-equipped, with many being seasoned veterans who have fought in Afghanistan, possessing extensive experience in mountain warfare. You must be cautious and remember not to be careless... For issues regarding weapons, go to the equipment department of the battalion and find 'Tank'; he will provide you with everything you need... Are there any other questions?"
Forty Russian-made RGD-5 grenades
Snow camouflage Kevlar helmets ... ... seven units
SV98 sniper rifle ... ... ammunition base 1
RPK74 light machine gun one ... ... ammunition base 2
Are there any requirements for this operation? the captain asked while walking
Original factory Beretta 92F pistols, ten units ... ... Ammunition base quantity 1
Note: These must be of original origin
One month later, in Xinjiang, 50 kilometers northwest of Kashgar, the temporary residence of the Longyan Special Forces is neatly arranged with dozens of military snow camouflage and * map * tents. The weather is not very good, with fine snowflakes drifting slowly, and a cool northern wind blowing leisurely.
"Old Qin, you can go back first. Xiao Nan and I will go out for a walk." As the soldiers left the conference room, Gao Dui approached Xiao Nan and said: "Let's go out for a stroll..."
"Ah... don't be so formal, just treat it as a chat," the captain turned to look at Xiao Nan and said with a cheerful smile, revealing a rare kindness. "This kind of operation is not the first time; you all have experience. Pay attention to safety. This task is very simple: cut off the supply of weapons from foreign arms dealers to domestic separatists. The purpose of assigning this task is to help you gain some experience in mountain warfare. You have had too little experience in mountain combat, and this is not a case of overqualified use."
Tank, true to his name, is robust and strong in appearance. He is the weapons expert of Longyan, proficient in nearly all weapons in the world, capable of modifying and reinforcing them at will. The nickname 'Tank' comes from his background in the armored corps. A weapons genius, when he first arrived at Longyan, the instructor jokingly remarked, "With your build, you don't need to drive a tank; wherever you poke, it will take up the space of a tank." Since then, everyone has called him Tank, and this has continued for six or seven years.
"Dragon Scale Armor" SOV - 10 sets of bulletproof vests 3000
One hour later, at the equipment office
After becoming familiar with the weapons, the special forces team arrived at the designated area by transport helicopter at night. After several hours of covert maneuvering, they reached this location—the Wakhan Corridor, which lies on the border between China and Afghanistan
The tank driver scoffed, "Don't bother, no need to flatter me. I'll do my best, but you think you can get something with this messy piece of scrap paper?" With a flick of his wrist, the tank driver tossed the list back to Xiao Nan.
Two Russian-made BR-25 type 40mm grenade launchers ... ... 50 rounds of grenades
Captain Gao once again surveyed each team member with an appreciative gaze
Ten D80 Huya military knives
Hurry, hurry, hurry, Man Niu, hurry..." Xiao Nan shouted while timing with a stopwatch
MP5 submachine gun, one unit ... ... ammunition base 1
... ...
Understood. Xiao Nan and the team members responded simultaneously, cleanly and decisively, without the slightest hesitation
Looking at the haphazard list of weapons in his hand, "Tank" frowned and shot a glare at Xiao Nan, saying, "Do you think I am a deity? With all this mess, how can I prepare everything for you in such a short time? This is just a temporary base, are you playing with me?"
No. The warriors roared
"Let's go, give it a try..." The political commissar ignored the captain's teasing and pulled him back.
Indeed, we are both over fifty, unlike this group of young men; let's go... to my place for some tea. I had someone bring back some Biluochun, and I would like you to help me check its purity." Commissar Qin said as he pulled Gao Da back on their way.
"Tanks, that's all... Prepare everything by noon tomorrow," said Xiao Nan as he handed over a weapons list.
Joking aside, the 'Tank' truly lives up to its reputation for being resourceful. I do not know what methods he employed, nor whether it was airlifted, but in any case, by noon the next day, everything needed was neatly arranged on the table, and the SV98 was still the one that Lin Xiao frequently used during training.
You brat, you have connections everywhere; this little task is nothing to you... If all else fails, we can airlift it. I'm not trying to make things difficult for you; this is a requirement of the mission.
Commissioner Qin picked up the conversation: "This is not the first mission for everyone; you are all veterans. I will not emphasize the issue of discipline too much. In short, be cautious in everything. The meeting is dismissed; Xiao Nan, you stay behind, the team leader has something to say to you"
