30: Chapter 30: Dragon Army Festival Arrives! 10 Men vs. Heavy Armored Combined Brigade!
Time passed quickly,
and Dragon Army Day arrived.
At 5:30 AM, the sky was just beginning to brighten.
Army barracks.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!!!" A piercing wake-up whistle sounded.
"Quickly, move it, move it!!"
"Assemble immediately! Head to the drill grounds!"
All the Dragon Army soldiers from the tank companies quickly rolled out of bed, nimbly putting on their camouflage uniforms while whispering among themselves.
"Who exactly is our opponent for this year's grand combat exercise?"
"I don't know! God knows what unit it is!"
"I heard yesterday that we have eight companies on our side, including a special operations reconnaissance company!"
"Supposedly, they're all the most elite companies in the Dragon Army!"
"By the way, the commander of that special ops recon company is Old A!"
*Hiss!*
The sound of soldiers gasping in shock filled the dormitory.
It was actually Old A's unit!
That ace special operations unit that only selects all-around soldier kings!
"With a lineup like this, they aren't going to make us fight an entire division, are they?"
"It's not impossible!"
"Hahaha, then we have to go all out this time! We'll crush all those softies from that opposing division!"
"What do you think our kill-loss ratio will be this time?"
"At least 5:1?"
"You're too damn timid! At least 20:1! It'll be a good result if they lose twenty for every one of ours!"
In less than five minutes,
the soldiers of the 3rd Tank Company finished assembling.
"Reporting, Company Commander!"
"The entire company of 60 men and 15 tanks has finished assembling! Please advise!"
"Move out! To the exercise area!"
"Yes, sir!"
Combat exercise area.
Shortly after,
all participating units had arrived.
The military equipment they brought was lined up neatly.
150 Type 04-A1 Infantry Fighting Vehicles!
30 Type 99-A1 Heavy Tanks!
5 WZ-1 Attack Helicopters!
5 HQ-10 Heavy Anti-tank Missile Launchers!
Plus self-propelled howitzers, modular rocket launchers, self-propelled anti-aircraft guns...
as well as communication, intelligence, jamming, and anti-jamming military equipment for information warfare units...
and on top of that, the special ops company led by Old A, totaling 33 all-around soldier kings!
Looking at such a formidable lineup,
the Dragon Army soldiers participating in the exercise clicked their tongues in secret.
This was practically...
an understrength heavy combined arms brigade!
This level of military force
was more than enough to wipe out the entire military of a small nation!
They wondered what kind of opponent
would be privileged enough to face such a lavish configuration!
Everyone was raring to go,
growing more and more excited for the upcoming combat exercise!
Since they were acting as the Red Team on the offensive,
they had to keep their losses to an absolute minimum!
They would beat the Blue Team so badly their own grandmothers wouldn't recognize them!
Just then,
the voice of the combat command center came through the loudspeakers.
"All companies, take your positions immediately. We are the defensive Blue Team!"
"The objective is to defend our combat command center at all costs!"
After hearing the deployment,
everyone was stunned!
What?
They were actually the Blue Team?
And their objective was...
to defend the command center?
What kind of unit was their opponent?!
Could it be a pincer attack by two entire divisions?
...
Half an hour later,
Sun-Chasing Base, Northwest Military Region.
The grand combat exercise area for the entire army.
Observation units from the Dragon Army's North, South, East, and West military regions finished entering and took their designated positions one after another.
Each area had a large screen and two large speakers
to broadcast the combat situation of the exercise in real-time.
Meanwhile, at the headquarters of each military region,
Dragon Army soldiers who couldn't attend in person were organized in drill grounds or large meeting rooms
to watch the live broadcast via satellite TV.
"Good grief, is the scale of this grand exercise really this big?"
"Look at the Blue Team's gear! Tsk tsk, it's all the most cutting-edge army equipment..."
"Looks like the Red Team is in for a rough time!..."
To the due south,
on a thirty-meter observation platform overlooking the entire exercise area,
dozens of high-ranking Dragon Army officials were seated.
To their front-left was a giant LED display screen
made of dozens of smaller screens joined together and divided into four sections.
Once the exercise began, it would track and display various areas of the combat in real-time.
Before long,
accompanied by numerous high-ranking generals,
several elderly men ascended the platform—they were the top leaders of Huaxia.
All the high-ranking Dragon Army officials stood up and saluted.
"Greetings, Chiefs!"
The leaders went to the front row and sat down according to protocol.
The high-ranking generals behind them followed suit.
The commentator for this combat exercise was Chief of Staff Huang, a two-star general from the General Staff Department of the Supreme Military Region.
He first asked the leaders for permission.
After receiving it,
he walked briskly to the giant screen.
"Soldiers of the Dragon Army!"
"I will be the commentator for this grand combat exercise."
"First, our defensive side, the Blue Team."
"The Blue Team is composed of elite ace companies from various military regions!"
"There are a total of five armored infantry companies, two tank companies, one artillery company, and one special operations reconnaissance company!"
"They have 30 Type 99-A1 Heavy Tanks, 150 Type 04-A1 Infantry Fighting Vehicles..."
It took about ten minutes
for Chief of Staff Huang to finish introducing the extremely elite Blue Team.
In short,
it was comparable to an understrength heavy combined arms brigade!
After a brief pause,
Chief of Staff Huang continued the introduction.
"Our Red Team..."
"...is the 1st Squad of the 'Dragon Fang' Special Operations Unit from the Supreme Military Region, totaling 10 people!"
"Their weaponry and equipment: 'Kunlun' Individual Powered Exoskeleton Armor!"
"The introductions for both sides are complete!"
"The exercise will begin in fifteen minutes!"
Whoosh!!
A massive uproar broke out among the Dragon Army soldiers.
They wondered if they had misheard.
The Red Team...
only had a ten-man special operations squad?
And their only equipment was Individual Exoskeleton Armor?
Are you sure this isn't a joke?!
As early as last month,
Huaxia had only just announced this individual combat equipment called Exoskeleton Armor.
But how long had it been?
It hadn't even been a month...
and now, they were actually going to use it for a combat exercise!
And on such a major holiday event as the Dragon Army Day grand combat exercise, no less,
pitted against an elite ace unit comparable to a heavy combined arms brigade!
Most of the Dragon Army soldiers
thought the generals up top had gone mad!
It was simply ridiculous!
On the observation platform,
someone laughed and said,
"You're the only one who's seen this Exoskeleton Armor in advance. Why don't you tell us about it?"
The leader chuckled and said, "Spoilers would ruin the fun."
"By the way, where is Comrade Lin Mo?"
Army Commander-in-Chief Long Jianjun replied, "Comrade Lin Mo is currently at the Red Team's command center."
The Red Team's... command center?
The leaders were curious.
"A squad of only ten people needs a dedicated command center?"
Long Jianjun said helplessly,
"Comrade Lin Mo said that no one understands the combat mode of the Exoskeleton Armor better than he does,"
"and if he doesn't command, the armor's full performance won't be realized."
At that moment,
the large screen began to show the scene inside the Red Team's command center.
Ten special ops soldiers,
wearing matte black, sci-fi-looking Individual Exoskeleton Armor,
suddenly entered everyone's view.
Right now,
they were listening to a young man in a Dragon Army combat uniform give out operational deployments.
"Number Two, Number Three, Number Four!"
"Here!"
"The three of you have the primary task of drawing fire!"
"I've specially modified your Exoskeleton Armor."
"The firepower configuration has been increased by five times the normal amount!"
"The armor is equipped with an anti-stealth system, so don't worry about being locked onto by those self-propelled guns,"
"the only thing you need to be careful of are the attack helicopters!"
"Therefore, your primary goal is to annihilate the enemy's air power!"
"Understood?"
"Understood!"
Lin Mo looked at the others.
"Number Five, Number Six!"
"Your mission is simple: use the long-range targeting system to snipe key enemy ground targets with high-energy laser cannons!"
"Number Seven, Number Eight!"
"You will carry out surprise recon from the enemy's left and right flanks, disrupting their formation while locating their combat command center!"
"Make sure to maintain distance and kite them!"
"Yes, sir!"
Finally, Lin Mo looked at Captain Liu Zhihui, who was Number One.
"Captain Liu, you are the one most familiar with this armor, so your task is the most difficult."
"Number One, Number Nine, Number Ten!"
"Here!"
"Your mission is decapitation!"
"Once the situation is chaotic, seize the moment and charge at full speed toward the enemy's combat command center!"
"If there's no chance to capture the Blue Team's overall commander alive, eliminate everyone!"
Captain Liu Zhihui and his two most elite soldier kings responded excitedly,
"Yes, sir!"
Lin Mo smiled and said,
"Relax!"
"You spent all day yesterday getting familiar with the Exoskeleton Armor, so you should already know its power."
"The other side looks numerous, but unfortunately they're just a rabble. Even without tactics, you could completely steamroll through them!"
"However,"
"since today is Dragon Army Day and the higher-ups have given specific instructions,"
"we should cooperate a bit and try to make it as exciting as possible!"
Hearing this,
the ten special ops soldiers all started laughing.
Captain Liu Zhihui said with a smile, "Against Chief Designer Lin's Exoskeleton Armor, numbers alone are useless."
"Good luck!"
Lin Mo said, "Victory to the Red Team!"
"Victory!" the ten men shouted in unison.
On the other side...
...at the Blue Team's position.
Inside an all-terrain vehicle of the logistics support unit,
the Blue Team commanders were gathered around a sand table and display screens, discussing intently.
"Gentlemen, I just received word!"
"Our Red Team opponent this time is very different from before!"
The overall commander of the Blue Team
was the brigade commander of an ace heavy combined arms brigade in the Northern Military Region's Ground Force,
a well-known ace Senior Colonel who had risen through the ranks based on military merit!
He said solemnly,
"The Red Team only has ten people!"
"Their weaponry and equipment consist of only one thing: Individual Exoskeleton Armor!"
The commanders present were stunned at first,
but then their brows furrowed.
They were all battle-hardened frontline officers,
so they naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to think these ten people would be easy to deal with!
Since this combat exercise had been arranged,
the Dragon Army leadership must believe
that these ten people
were fully capable of rivaling the Blue Team, which was composed of their ace elite units!
The key to this
was the name of the combat equipment they were hearing in a practical context for the first time:
Individual Exoskeleton Armor!
"No matter how you look at it, there are only ten of them!"
The Blue Team's commander said gravely, "However, we must remain on the highest alert!"
"The opponent lacks manpower—you could even say they have none at all—"
"yet the Dragon Army leadership thinks they can take us on."
"This is enough to show that their mobility and surprise attack capabilities are extremely high!"
"Therefore, we must design our operational plan with precision this time to ensure victory!"
The Blue Team commanders deliberated intensely.
Within just ten minutes,
they finalized their deployment.
First and most importantly,
they would set up two decoy command centers!
One would serve as bait, while the other would be a secondary command post for two infantry companies!
The overall command center would remain in this all-terrain vehicle.
An ordinary person would never guess
that the Blue Team's combat command center
was actually a constantly moving logistics all-terrain vehicle!
After that,
the Blue Team also made specific deployments for each company's operations.
In the forest where the Blue Team's base was located,
they set up a total of five defensive lines!
"No matter what, the Red Team only has ten people!"
"Even if they're formidable, how much can they really do?"
"The self-propelled guns alone will be more than enough for them!"
"Not to mention, we have five defensive lines!"
"If those ten people can even break through our first line of defense, I'll consider them impressive!"
The Blue Team's overall commander said with a smile,
"But a lion uses its full strength even when hunting a rabbit!"
"We don't just want to win; we want to win beautifully!"
"We'll keep our losses to a minimum and ideally capture a few of them alive,"
"to show the big bosses up top"
"what it truly means to be a Huaxia ace elite!"
The other commanders responded with laughs,
"Absolutely! Let's make it 0 to 10!"
"Hahaha!"
Fifteen minutes passed quickly.
The broadcast voice came through.
"The combat exercise is about to begin!"
"Exercise requirements:"
"If the Blue Team's overall combat command center is destroyed, the Red Team wins!"
"If the Red Team is annihilated or fails to attack the Blue Team's base for ten minutes, the Blue Team wins!"
"Three! Two! One!"
"Red Team, attack immediately!"
All the observing Dragon Army soldiers stared at the large screen.
They were all looking forward
to the performance of the ten Red Team special ops soldiers!
For the Dragon Army leadership to arrange such a combat exercise
during such a large-scale army-wide event,
they must have absolute confidence in the Exoskeleton Armor.
Even if the Red Team couldn't win,
they would surely cause massive trouble for the Blue Team.
Now, it was time to see just how powerful this Individual Exoskeleton Armor really was!
On the large screens everywhere,
three matte black armored figures appeared on camera.
Their cool, sci-fi appearance
instantly grabbed the attention of every Dragon Army soldier!
...

as well as communication, intelligence, jamming, and anti-jamming military equipment for information warfare units...
and on top of that, the special ops company led by Old A, totaling 33 all-around soldier kings!
Looking at such a formidable lineup,
the Dragon Army soldiers participating in the exercise clicked their tongues in secret.
This was practically...
an understrength heavy combined arms brigade!
This level of military force
was more than enough to wipe out the entire military of a small nation!
They wondered what kind of opponent

Everyone was raring to go,

they had to keep their losses to an absolute minimum!

Just then,
the voice of the combat command center came through the loudspeakers.
"All companies, take your positions immediately. We are the defensive Blue Team!"
"The objective is to defend our combat command center at all costs!"
After hearing the deployment,
everyone was stunned!
What?
They were actually the Blue Team?
And their objective was...
to defend the command center?
What kind of unit was their opponent?!
Could it be a pincer attack by two entire divisions?
...
Half an hour later,
Sun-Chasing Base, Northwest Military Region.
The grand combat exercise area for the entire army.
Observation units from the Dragon Army's North, South, East, and West military regions finished entering and took their designated positions one after another.
Each area had a large screen and two large speakers
to broadcast the combat situation of the exercise in real-time.
Meanwhile, at the headquarters of each military region,
Dragon Army soldiers who couldn't attend in person were organized in drill grounds or large meeting rooms
to watch the live broadcast via satellite TV.
"Good grief, is the scale of this grand exercise really this big?"
"Look at the Blue Team's gear! Tsk tsk, it's all the most cutting-edge army equipment..."
"Looks like the Red Team is in for a rough time!..."
To the due south,
on a thirty-meter observation platform overlooking the entire exercise area,
dozens of high-ranking Dragon Army officials were seated.
To their front-left was a giant LED display screen
made of dozens of smaller screens joined together and divided into four sections.
Once the exercise began, it would track and display various areas of the combat in real-time.
Before long,
accompanied by numerous high-ranking generals,
several elderly men ascended the platform—they were the top leaders of Huaxia.
All the high-ranking Dragon Army officials stood up and saluted.
"Greetings, Chiefs!"
The leaders went to the front row and sat down according to protocol.
The high-ranking generals behind them followed suit.
The commentator for this combat exercise was Chief of Staff Huang, a two-star general from the General Staff Department of the Supreme Military Region.
He first asked the leaders for permission.
After receiving it,
he walked briskly to the giant screen.
"Soldiers of the Dragon Army!"
"I will be the commentator for this grand combat exercise."
"First, our defensive side, the Blue Team."
"The Blue Team is composed of elite ace companies from various military regions!"
"There are a total of five armored infantry companies, two tank companies, one artillery company, and one special operations reconnaissance company!"
"They have 30 Type 99-A1 Heavy Tanks, 150 Type 04-A1 Infantry Fighting Vehicles..."
It took about ten minutes
for Chief of Staff Huang to finish introducing the extremely elite Blue Team.
In short,
it was comparable to an understrength heavy combined arms brigade!
After a brief pause,
Chief of Staff Huang continued the introduction.
"Our Red Team..."
"...is the 1st Squad of the 'Dragon Fang' Special Operations Unit from the Supreme Military Region, totaling 10 people!"
"Their weaponry and equipment: 'Kunlun' Individual Powered Exoskeleton Armor!"
"The introductions for both sides are complete!"
"The exercise will begin in fifteen minutes!"
Whoosh!!
A massive uproar broke out among the Dragon Army soldiers.
They wondered if they had misheard.
The Red Team...
only had a ten-man special operations squad?
And their only equipment was Individual Exoskeleton Armor?
Are you sure this isn't a joke?!
As early as last month,
Huaxia had only just announced this individual combat equipment called Exoskeleton Armor.
But how long had it been?
It hadn't even been a month...
and now, they were actually going to use it for a combat exercise!
And on such a major holiday event as the Dragon Army Day grand combat exercise, no less,
pitted against an elite ace unit comparable to a heavy combined arms brigade!
Most of the Dragon Army soldiers
thought the generals up top had gone mad!
It was simply ridiculous!
On the observation platform,
someone laughed and said,
"You're the only one who's seen this Exoskeleton Armor in advance. Why don't you tell us about it?"
The leader chuckled and said, "Spoilers would ruin the fun."
"By the way, where is Comrade Lin Mo?"
Army Commander-in-Chief Long Jianjun replied, "Comrade Lin Mo is currently at the Red Team's command center."
The Red Team's... command center?
The leaders were curious.
"A squad of only ten people needs a dedicated command center?"
Long Jianjun said helplessly,
"Comrade Lin Mo said that no one understands the combat mode of the Exoskeleton Armor better than he does,"
"and if he doesn't command, the armor's full performance won't be realized."
At that moment,
the large screen began to show the scene inside the Red Team's command center.
Ten special ops soldiers,
wearing matte black, sci-fi-looking Individual Exoskeleton Armor,
suddenly entered everyone's view.
Right now,
they were listening to a young man in a Dragon Army combat uniform give out operational deployments.
"Number Two, Number Three, Number Four!"
"Here!"
"The three of you have the primary task of drawing fire!"
"I've specially modified your Exoskeleton Armor."
"The firepower configuration has been increased by five times the normal amount!"
"The armor is equipped with an anti-stealth system, so don't worry about being locked onto by those self-propelled guns,"
"the only thing you need to be careful of are the attack helicopters!"
"Therefore, your primary goal is to annihilate the enemy's air power!"
"Understood?"
"Understood!"
Lin Mo looked at the others.
"Number Five, Number Six!"
"Your mission is simple: use the long-range targeting system to snipe key enemy ground targets with high-energy laser cannons!"
"Number Seven, Number Eight!"
"You will carry out surprise recon from the enemy's left and right flanks, disrupting their formation while locating their combat command center!"
"Make sure to maintain distance and kite them!"
"Yes, sir!"
Finally, Lin Mo looked at Captain Liu Zhihui, who was Number One.
"Captain Liu, you are the one most familiar with this armor, so your task is the most difficult."
"Number One, Number Nine, Number Ten!"
"Here!"
"Your mission is decapitation!"
"Once the situation is chaotic, seize the moment and charge at full speed toward the enemy's combat command center!"
"If there's no chance to capture the Blue Team's overall commander alive, eliminate everyone!"
Captain Liu Zhihui and his two most elite soldier kings responded excitedly,
"Yes, sir!"
Lin Mo smiled and said,
"Relax!"
"You spent all day yesterday getting familiar with the Exoskeleton Armor, so you should already know its power."
"The other side looks numerous, but unfortunately they're just a rabble. Even without tactics, you could completely steamroll through them!"
"However,"
"since today is Dragon Army Day and the higher-ups have given specific instructions,"
"we should cooperate a bit and try to make it as exciting as possible!"
Hearing this,
the ten special ops soldiers all started laughing.
Captain Liu Zhihui said with a smile, "Against Chief Designer Lin's Exoskeleton Armor, numbers alone are useless."
"Good luck!"
Lin Mo said, "Victory to the Red Team!"
"Victory!" the ten men shouted in unison.
On the other side...
...at the Blue Team's position.
Inside an all-terrain vehicle of the logistics support unit,
the Blue Team commanders were gathered around a sand table and display screens, discussing intently.
"Gentlemen, I just received word!"
"Our Red Team opponent this time is very different from before!"
The overall commander of the Blue Team
was the brigade commander of an ace heavy combined arms brigade in the Northern Military Region's Ground Force,
a well-known ace Senior Colonel who had risen through the ranks based on military merit!
He said solemnly,
"The Red Team only has ten people!"
"Their weaponry and equipment consist of only one thing: Individual Exoskeleton Armor!"
The commanders present were stunned at first,
but then their brows furrowed.
They were all battle-hardened frontline officers,
so they naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to think these ten people would be easy to deal with!
Since this combat exercise had been arranged,
the Dragon Army leadership must believe
that these ten people
were fully capable of rivaling the Blue Team, which was composed of their ace elite units!
The key to this
was the name of the combat equipment they were hearing in a practical context for the first time:
Individual Exoskeleton Armor!
"No matter how you look at it, there are only ten of them!"
The Blue Team's commander said gravely, "However, we must remain on the highest alert!"
"The opponent lacks manpower—you could even say they have none at all—"
"yet the Dragon Army leadership thinks they can take us on."
"This is enough to show that their mobility and surprise attack capabilities are extremely high!"
"Therefore, we must design our operational plan with precision this time to ensure victory!"
The Blue Team commanders deliberated intensely.
Within just ten minutes,
they finalized their deployment.
First and most importantly,
they would set up two decoy command centers!
One would serve as bait, while the other would be a secondary command post for two infantry companies!
The overall command center would remain in this all-terrain vehicle.
An ordinary person would never guess
that the Blue Team's combat command center
was actually a constantly moving logistics all-terrain vehicle!
After that,
the Blue Team also made specific deployments for each company's operations.
In the forest where the Blue Team's base was located,
they set up a total of five defensive lines!
"No matter what, the Red Team only has ten people!"
"Even if they're formidable, how much can they really do?"
"The self-propelled guns alone will be more than enough for them!"
"Not to mention, we have five defensive lines!"
"If those ten people can even break through our first line of defense, I'll consider them impressive!"
The Blue Team's overall commander said with a smile,
"But a lion uses its full strength even when hunting a rabbit!"
"We don't just want to win; we want to win beautifully!"
"We'll keep our losses to a minimum and ideally capture a few of them alive,"
"to show the big bosses up top"
"what it truly means to be a Huaxia ace elite!"
The other commanders responded with laughs,
"Absolutely! Let's make it 0 to 10!"
"Hahaha!"
Fifteen minutes passed quickly.
The broadcast voice came through.
"The combat exercise is about to begin!"
"Exercise requirements:"
"If the Blue Team's overall combat command center is destroyed, the Red Team wins!"
"If the Red Team is annihilated or fails to attack the Blue Team's base for ten minutes, the Blue Team wins!"
"Three! Two! One!"
"Red Team, attack immediately!"
All the observing Dragon Army soldiers stared at the large screen.
They were all looking forward
to the performance of the ten Red Team special ops soldiers!
For the Dragon Army leadership to arrange such a combat exercise
during such a large-scale army-wide event,
they must have absolute confidence in the Exoskeleton Armor.
Even if the Red Team couldn't win,
they would surely cause massive trouble for the Blue Team.
Now, it was time to see just how powerful this Individual Exoskeleton Armor really was!
On the large screens everywhere,
three matte black armored figures appeared on camera.
Their cool, sci-fi appearance
instantly grabbed the attention of every Dragon Army soldier!
...
30: Chapter 30: Dragon Army Festival Arrives! 10 Men vs. Heavy Armored Combined Brigade!
Time passed quickly,
and Dragon Army Day arrived.
At 5:30 AM, the sky was just beginning to brighten.
Army barracks.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!!!" A piercing wake-up whistle sounded.
"Quickly, move it, move it!!"
"Assemble immediately! Head to the drill grounds!"
All the Dragon Army soldiers from the tank companies quickly rolled out of bed, nimbly putting on their camouflage uniforms while whispering among themselves.
"Who exactly is our opponent for this year's grand combat exercise?"
"I don't know! God knows what unit it is!"
"I heard yesterday that we have eight companies on our side, including a special operations reconnaissance company!"
"Supposedly, they're all the most elite companies in the Dragon Army!"
"By the way, the commander of that special ops recon company is Old A!"
*Hiss!*
The sound of soldiers gasping in shock filled the dormitory.
It was actually Old A's unit!
That ace special operations unit that only selects all-around soldier kings!
"With a lineup like this, they aren't going to make us fight an entire division, are they?"
"It's not impossible!"
"Hahaha, then we have to go all out this time! We'll crush all those softies from that opposing division!"
"What do you think our kill-loss ratio will be this time?"
"At least 5:1?"
"You're too damn timid! At least 20:1! It'll be a good result if they lose twenty for every one of ours!"
In less than five minutes,
the soldiers of the 3rd Tank Company finished assembling.
"Reporting, Company Commander!"
"The entire company of 60 men and 15 tanks has finished assembling! Please advise!"
"Move out! To the exercise area!"
"Yes, sir!"
Combat exercise area.
Shortly after,
all participating units had arrived.
The military equipment they brought was lined up neatly.
150 Type 04-A1 Infantry Fighting Vehicles!
30 Type 99-A1 Heavy Tanks!
5 WZ-1 Attack Helicopters!
5 HQ-10 Heavy Anti-tank Missile Launchers!
Plus self-propelled howitzers, modular rocket launchers, self-propelled anti-aircraft guns...
as well as communication, intelligence, jamming, and anti-jamming military equipment for information warfare units...
and on top of that, the special ops company led by Old A, totaling 33 all-around soldier kings!
Looking at such a formidable lineup,
the Dragon Army soldiers participating in the exercise clicked their tongues in secret.
This was practically...
an understrength heavy combined arms brigade!
This level of military force
was more than enough to wipe out the entire military of a small nation!
They wondered what kind of opponent
would be privileged enough to face such a lavish configuration!
Everyone was raring to go,
growing more and more excited for the upcoming combat exercise!
Since they were acting as the Red Team on the offensive,
they had to keep their losses to an absolute minimum!
They would beat the Blue Team so badly their own grandmothers wouldn't recognize them!
Just then,
the voice of the combat command center came through the loudspeakers.
"All companies, take your positions immediately. We are the defensive Blue Team!"
"The objective is to defend our combat command center at all costs!"
After hearing the deployment,
everyone was stunned!
What?
They were actually the Blue Team?
And their objective was...
to defend the command center?
What kind of unit was their opponent?!
Could it be a pincer attack by two entire divisions?
