They are all in the army, who is in love?

Chapter 323: Differences of opinion, signs of getting fifty with one blow
After being busy until late at night, Chen Ming completed his task. After checking the entire article and making sure that his views were expressed in place, he got up and washed up.

Lie in bed and rest.

As early as the beginning of the training, I heard many students mention the study arrangements for the third stage, and later Vice President Lin confirmed it himself.

But commanding the three armies in simulated operations without leaving home still puzzled Chen Ming. This kind of technology is not uncommon, and the Tiger Wolf Camp simulated confrontation system can also achieve it.

What he was confused about was how to fight. Should he cooperate with his mentor, through simulated combat, or fight between students?
It doesn't seem to have much effect.

Chen Ming rested his head on his arms, half leaning against the wall, looking at the dark night sky outside, and he really missed the army in his thoughts.

Before departure, he expected that the Strategic Assault Division would arrange so many people for training that it would be completed in ten months at most. However, more than a year has passed and the third phase has not yet begun.

Some of the soldiers of the Tiger Wolf Battalion left during the retirement season this year, and many new recruits were assigned. The armored infantry company's adapted firepower company has long been formed and has good combat capabilities.

Xu Wenqian, the former chief of staff of the 169th Brigade, did not break his promise. On the day when the designation was awarded, he promised that he would apply for a batch of equipment from above, and all of it was in place.

The firepower company has added a long-range fire platoon and a long-range decapitation platoon. With the reinforcement of these two combat platoons, the Tiger Wolf Battalion uses a vehicle-mounted integrated drone to locate the distance.

The strike distance can be extended to a hundred or ten kilometers away.

If this comes the time of war, the Red Army may be under fire as soon as they get off the train.

Strategic Assault Division, as soon as the name sounds like a rogue master, it cannot fight any serious battles and will inevitably bring the Blue Army's fine rogue tradition to the extreme.

Chen Ming was lying on the bed, thinking about the new station and the new battlefield, and also figured out who the Strategic Assault Division's first target would be.

It was even more inevitable to study what position he would be assigned to after graduation. He also asked Wang Junwei's arrangements for him in a subtle way.

It's a pity that the old brigade commander didn't accept his words at all and kept silent about the new appointment.

Chen Ming was also helpless. A position above the battalion level must be a carrot and a pit, leaving him a position to report by himself.

Otherwise, all his achievements will be in vain, despite the fact that when he introduced himself to the first platoon leader Cao Fei in the Second Border Defense Company, he stated that he was the chief staff officer of the Tiger Wolf Battalion of the Strategic Assault Division.

However, he has long been replaced as chief staff officer by a comrade, and he is still on standby.

This taste is unpleasant.
After tossing and turning for a long time, I sent a few messages to Chai Shuyao. I was very drunk last night and did academic tasks until late tonight. I haven't talked much.

Always explain the reason before lying down to rest.

Early the next morning.

Before Chen Ming had finished washing up, Xie Canxiong, the lazy neighbor next door, unexpectedly got up early and ran over to open the door of dormitory 301.

When he walked in, he ignored Chen Ming who was still washing up. He raised the manuscript in his hand and started yelling with his panda eyes.

"Old Chen, Chen? Oh, come on, come on, come on, help me see how my writing is and whether I can pass the test."

"Damn, this is really strange. I haven't studied for so many years, and today I suddenly feel nervous about having my homework checked by the class teacher. Do you think it's strange?"

"Gulu lu bah."

Chen Ming gargled and spit out the water, turned his head and glanced at Xie Canxiong's big dark circles that could compete with national treasures. He couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't read it, you must have written well."

"How do you know?" Xie Canxiong asked in surprise.

"Guess."

Chen Ming walked out of the bathroom angrily and said helplessly: "You guy, you were not busy when you were supposed to be busy last night, and you kept running to me."

"I haven't written a few words, and I still have time to go out for a walk. Did you stay up late yesterday?"

"Oh, please stop teasing me, I'm so worried." Xie Canxiong put all the manuscripts he had prepared into Chen Ming's hands, looking anxious like a primary school student endorsing his class teacher, sitting aside and waiting anxiously.

Chen Ming found it a bit funny, so he picked up the manuscript and took a look.

Title: "Development and Innovation of Army Command Theory".

The question was good. Chen Ming nodded. It seemed that the old boy had listened to his point of view yesterday.

Vice-President Lin arranged this investigation, certainly not for them to write about big depths, big battles, commanding thousands of troops, integrating air and sky, and powerful steel torrents pushing horizontally.

It cannot be said that those contents are not practical, but they are not suitable for the current situation. They should be written from the starting point, from the grassroots level, and from the perspective of the new era.

This is the true meaning of this investigation.

If this were not the case, there would be no point in further training. The commanders who stayed in the army would also know this. Everyone was basically on the same level. If we really wanted to fight, we couldn't just rely on cheating.

Nowadays, the Strategic Assault Division is a new unit, and the soldiers in the past were also very ambitious. They wanted to fight a few tough battles and give the Red Army a taste of the pain.

Everything is new everywhere, and the commander's thinking must also learn to welcome the new and fully understand the importance of learning, so that he can take over this brand-new unit.

If you don’t know how to learn, exchange new ideas, and accept new ideas, how can you lead the Blue Army?
You know, in the 90s and [-]s, there were already Blue Army units in China. How did you learn at that time?
It is no exaggeration to say that the food we eat is all Western food, and the rules and regulations are all implemented according to the specific country, including the weapons for training and the daily style, all are restored according to the army of the simulated country.

That learning ability can be said to be almost a one-to-one copy.

With the development of the times and the continuous progress of military research, military experts soon discovered that that method was not practical, and simulations were useless. Military technology was the last word.

Although the method has been eliminated, the spirit cannot be forgotten.

Today, they are inheriting the spirit of that time.

Chen Ming took a rough look at the content. Well, how should I put it? Except for the title, which is eye-catching, the rest is very simple.

It cannot be said that there are no highlights, it can only be said that it has no reference value.

But thinking about it, Xie Canxiong worked at the grassroots level, and his task all day long was to clean and move artillery shells. When there was a drill mission, he had to sleep next to the cannon shells and guard them.

For more than half a year, apart from knowing the principles of artillery shells more clearly than before, I really don’t have much other experience.

It is indeed a bit embarrassing for him to write about battle command studies combined with grassroots experience.

"How about it, Old Chen? Can my paper pass the test? How is the writing going?"

Seeing Chen Ming's delay in speaking, Xie Canxiong couldn't help but ask.

"It's good. It's very realistic. It explains your point of view very clearly. I didn't see any other meaning after reading it for a long time. It's very good."

"Really?"

Listening to Chen Ming's "pertinent" reply, Xie Canxiong looked puzzled. This didn't sound like a good thing.

"Really, don't think so much."

Chen Ming waved his hand to comfort him. Now it was meaningless whether it was true or false. Classes would start in half an hour and it would be too late to change.

Just settle down first.

Besides, Chen Ming doesn't care whether the writing is good or not. What if the older brother writes worse?

After stabilizing Xie Canxiong, Chen Ming quickly packed up his manuscripts, and the two hurried to the college cafeteria for breakfast.

In the cafeteria, there are basically a group of cadet officers like them. Maybe they are on a mission, maybe because the results of the second phase of the assessment will be announced today.

In short, the people eating were less noisy than before. They all lowered their heads and ate in silence, much faster than usual.

Occasionally there was a sound, but it was just a few acquaintances whispering a few words, and then they stopped talking.

After breakfast.

All the students in the training class entered the classroom. Chen Ming was shocked by the layout as soon as he entered.

Good guy, when I entered the classroom, I felt like an ancient imperial examination hall, with dozens of instructors sitting inside.

Vice President Lin Qingyuan was also there, as was Yang Fengrui and the others, who saw the officers coming over.

He raised his hand and greeted with a smile: "Comrade leaders, when you come in, hand over the manuscript on combat command that you wrote last night to the comrade next to you."

"Please wait a moment, let's get a general understanding." This scene is really a bit like when you were studying, checking your homework just after the winter vacation.

Chen Ming was not worried and handed his manuscript to the person next to him. The other person was also a colonel. He looked quite young and had fair skin.

At first glance, he doesn't look like a rough guy from the field army. He has an aura of cultural stubbornness about him.

Naturally, the others did the same. They handed in all the manuscripts they had written, sat in their seats, and waited quietly.

In the whole classroom, there was only the occasional sound of "wiping, wiping, wiping" paper, but at other times it was very quiet.

Vice President Lin sat in the front row, like an invigilator, his eyes constantly scanning the faces of the students with a serious expression.

Soon, an hour passed.

The atmosphere in the classroom became even more depressing. No one stipulated that discussions were not allowed and people were not allowed to get up and go to the bathroom, but no one moved. They were all as steady as a stone statue and as steady as an old dog.

During this period, only the instructor who checked the manuscript took the paper and handed it to Lin Qingyuan or Yang Fengrui.

The two of them communicated quietly from time to time, seemingly assessing their performance.

Another four ten minutes passed.

Yang Fengrui then raised his head and glanced around all the students in the conference room.

He cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Comrade leaders, please arrange today's classes first."

"This morning, some of the academic content of gay people will be announced for everyone's reference. A debate competition will be organized in the afternoon, and everyone must participate in the speech."

"As a debate team, you should divide your opinions into groups. After the grouping is completed, the third phase will officially begin tomorrow, and we will also conduct simulated exercises and confrontations in a group mode."

"The specific method of the exercise will be explained to everyone by the instructor. Command knowledge cannot only be reflected on paper, but must be applied to the battlefield."

"Okay, the general arrangement is this. Those who are qualified and perform well in the exercise confrontation can return to the army one after another."

"Other comrades who do not perform well may have to graduate later. Our third phase will end one after another, as fast as three days or as slow as two months."

As soon as Yang Fengrui finished speaking, the originally silent classroom suddenly became lively.

At this time, no one was thinking about whether their manuscript would not pass the test or whether it would be so poorly written that they would be nominated by the vice-dean.

They were all overwhelmed by the requirements of the third stage of study.

Is the exercise confrontation qualified? ! ! !
Everyone was a little confused by the sudden news. Is this thing even qualified?
What are the assessment criteria?What should I do if I fail?
We can't stay here forever and wait for the second batch of students to come over. They can't go back to the army yet, right?
Everyone was anxious and raised their heads to look at the podium. Chen Ming was also confused.

Since coming to the academy, some people have said that instructors from the Joint Warfare Academy have been testing a new simulated combat command room, which can simulate hundreds of thousands of battles without leaving home.

But I have been hearing this for more than a year, and there has been no movement.

Seeing everyone's doubts, Yang Fengrui raised his hand to stop the discussion and continued: "Comrades, the college has already planned the follow-up arrangements, and will give you a detailed explanation when the time comes."

"But before that, we have to talk about the project manuscript on combat command science. This is the task we have assigned yesterday."

"The instructors who were here just now have also read them all. Most of them can see that they have put their heart into it and have done a very good job. But again, many academic issues do not have clear boundaries and divisions. .”

"This is just like you commanding operations in the army. Tactics themselves are not right or wrong. Winning is a good tactic."

"The same is true for academia. So far, academic circles have always had different views on the division of combat command elements."

"There has been controversy over the division of combat command elements for many years. Just now I saw the manuscripts submitted by all comrades, and there have been these kinds of disputes, all centered around these cores."

"I also wrote down my own opinions and questions. I did a good job on this. At least everyone has clearly understood how important combat command is."

"I will mention a few people below. Their views will serve as the main points confirmed by our discussion and debate in the afternoon."

"The first one is written by Comrade Chen Ming and is titled "Research on Combat Command under High-tech Conditions--A Brief Discussion on the Elements of Combat Command."

"In Comrade Chen Ming's point of view, the command environment, command methods and command information are clearly attributed to command elements."

"A careful and objective analysis shows that these conditions are possible and have key nodes that affect command."

"But Comrade Ding Yuan mentioned different viewpoints in the "Operation Command Concept"."

"Comrade Zhao Shenghu, including Comrade Zhao Shenghu, also put forward different views in "Discussion on Several Basic Concepts and Theoretical Systems of Military Command."

"It is believed that command means or command tools should be classified into the ordinary scope and do not have the core to affect command elements."

"These academic theories will be applied to your strategic assault division in the future. This point of view does not mean that we must achieve unity, but at least we must debate and come up with a result."

"A result of public perception."

"The Strategic Assault Division is a new unit and is responsible for important tasks. As the core command, you can expand your views and understanding to let more comrades understand it, which will help the development of the third phase."

"It's just that the manuscripts written by the other two comrades did not conduct a comprehensive analysis like Comrade Chen Ming. They only focused on one of the conditions and described them in detail."

“Some use the term tools of command, and some use the term means of command to describe the entire point of view.”

"Looking at command methods from different levels will lead to different ideas and formulations. Among the views of these comrades, there are also different disputes about whether command information is one of the elements of command."

"The manuscripts of other comrades also mentioned some topics more or less, but the concepts are very vague and not enough to be used as a reference."

"Okay, let's take a half-hour break. You can take advantage of this time to read the three people's manuscripts, clarify the views you support, and prepare to assign debate groups."

"Get ready for the afternoon debate."

"Disband."

Following Yang Fengrui's arrangement, the instructors in the classroom began to leave one after another. Vice Dean Lin Qingyuan glanced at Chen Ming and also stood up and left.

Except for the three manuscripts mentioned just now, which were left in the classroom for everyone's reference, all other manuscripts were taken away.

This confused many cadres. What's going on?How did academic opinion turn into a debate session?
Debating in front of a group of academic people, especially the vice president, is this any different from using a sword in front of Guan Gong?

Some people feel that something is wrong, but others feel that it is normal. The five fingers are of different lengths when they are stretched out.

When you listen to a class in a classroom, your written opinions will naturally be different. Debate can make people who don’t understand clearer.

Chen Ming sat there, frowning, feeling something bad. He originally thought that he had written so many opinions last night, and even if he would not be praised today, he would at least be able to pass the test.

But he didn't expect that the point he wrote would become one of the debates.

If there is a debate, there will be controversy, and if there is a controversy, there will be winners and losers. No matter what happens in the final team selection, there will definitely be support and opposition to his views.

Does that mean that he has become the main force in the debate competition again?
Nima.

The National Defense University has a lot of fun activities. He has experienced combat in the Second Border Defense Company and also led the Tiger Wolf Battalion in combat. The two units are in different places.

The scale of the battle is also different. Of course, he prefers to attribute the command environment, command methods and command information to the command elements.

And it is the most important factor.

But other officers have never been to the border defense force, let alone participated in the battle of the border defense company.

The vast majority of the officers present were the same. They used to lead mechanized or semi-mechanized troops, but later switched to information technology.

Of course he would not agree with his views, and if he had guessed correctly, he could already predict that not many people would hold the same support for his views.

That means that in the next debate competition, there are more than 50 people in the classroom, and he will complete the feat of [-] in one blow?

Good guy, Chen Ming's scalp is numb. This is more stressful than Zhuge Liang's verbal battle with the Confucian scholars.

It's not that he is pessimistic. All command cognition is based on the environment. It is difficult for people to be exposed to things other than cognition. The same is true for the command habits of officers.

How could they agree with their views if they have never experienced combat in some special circumstances?
Soon, Chen Ming found that his worries came true.
