I asked you to repeat your senior year of high school, but did you miss out on joining the military

Chapter 494: Signs of organizational reform, a sudden inspiration for tactics

Liu Xiang's concerns are not without reason.

After Chief of Staff Xu finished praising the 179th Brigade, he turned his head and fixed his gaze on the 92nd Brigade. Facing the gaze of the Vice President, the Brigade Commander Liu Xiang and the Political Commissar Wei Jinan both looked stern.

Hurry up and pretend to be listening attentively.

"Liu Xiang."

Xu Hesheng shouted something incomprehensible, and then raised his hand and knocked on the conference table: "The commander-in-chief has expressed dissatisfaction with your operation this time."

"It is understandable that the Red Army's main force was not well prepared, and it is okay to fight in a hurry, but they ignored the referee's blockade many times during the battle, which violated the rules."

"I heard from the observer comrade that your comrades in the 92nd Brigade are very proud."

Just a few sentences.

When Xu Hesheng said this, Liu Xiang immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

He's the theater chief of staff. The fact that he's talking in such an indirect way shows that the problem is very serious.

as predicted.

Chief of Staff Xu, who originally spoke in a calm tone, suddenly slammed the conference table with a "bang".

The conference tables set up for this kind of exercise and combat operations were all assembled and covered with a layer of red velvet. Xu Hesheng slapped it and the whole conference table creaked.

Then he angrily cursed: "This military reform has split up many old units, even the 47th Army has been disbanded, what do you have to be proud of?"

"You contradicted the referee on the battlefield, repeatedly refuted the tactics and said there was no radical behavior, and repeatedly emphasized that your 92nd Brigade has a death order, saying that after the battle, you cannot fight back or talk back."

"Liu Xiang, you are so majestic."

"I'm telling you, if the 92nd Brigade goes to the battlefield with this tone again, I will make sure your entire brigade packs up and leaves."

"Chief of Staff Li of the Joint Chiefs of Staff repeatedly stressed that we should get rid of our burdens and prepare for war. Before the war, we stressed many times at the military district meeting that we should take it seriously."

"Is this the attitude of your 92nd Brigade?"

"Does it have to be the time for the Joint Chiefs of Staff to be furious and use you as a scapegoat, and then just withdraw you from the army and hand you over to the armed police?"

"Look at the battle you fought. Is this the result your 92nd Brigade should have achieved?"

Xu Hesheng was obviously really angry.

Chen Jun sat aside and did not dare to make any movement. He understood why the war zone was so angry.

In fact, the reason why the 92nd Brigade was defeated so quickly was because they were too competitive. At that time, the Blue Army's assault group had just come into contact with the Red Army, and most of the Red Army's main forces were there.

Because they were afraid of being surrounded and afraid of failure, they chose to attack indiscriminately and used their howitzer troops to blow up the blue army's spearhead, and even part of their own main force was blown up.

Just this one item, to put it bluntly, if Liu Xiang didn't have someone with a star on his shoulder to support him, he would not be able to do it.

He couldn't get through this level.

Also, during the retreat, so many infantrymen rushed out of the infantry fighting vehicles and used a human wall to block the Blue Army's artillery fire. Do you think the military referee from the director's department didn't stop it?
There's no way to stop that.

When you get angry, no one can help you.

After all, exercises are not real wars. Examples of this were most common on the battlefield in the past few years, for example, in order to buy time for the Red Army to retreat.

Some soldiers deliberately use a human wall to block the enemy tanks from pursuing them, and you can't do anything even though you know they do it on purpose.

You can't really fire the cannon, can you?

This kind of thing happened so frequently that the higher authorities issued a series of exercise regulations in an effort to restore the real battlefield.

During last year's annual military exercise, Chen Jun simply said at the meeting, "Exercises are simulated wars." He was praised for such a simple sentence.

The reason is that real exercise combat has only been carried out for a few years.

14 years ago, it could really be said that we were fighting a war with a script.

At this critical juncture when the military reform has just been completed, the Joint Staff will naturally attach great importance to the theater's large-scale military training series.

As a result, in the first battle, the 92nd Brigade made the same mistakes as before, and some cadres even refuted the referee.

It is no exaggeration to say that they are the ones who stick their heads out.

Therefore, Xu Hesheng’s scolding was not unfair at all.

If the Joint Staff Headquarters is angered, given Li Haiyao's grandfather's temper, there is a chance that he will just pack up the entire field brigade and throw it to the armed police force.

It's definitely not meant to scare people.

Looking at the furious chief of staff, Liu Xiang swallowed his saliva, quickly stood up and said in a loud voice: "Please rest assured, Chief, we will make corrections as soon as possible."

"Make sure this doesn't happen again."

"Humph!"

When Xu Hesheng heard this, he snorted coldly: "Don't just say nice things. If this happens again, no one can protect you."

"The Joint Staff in Kyoto has requested that a copy of the entire operation be sent over."

"Liu Xiang, how do you say this?"

"Just now outside, I was trying to save face for you in front of the comrades. If the commander-in-chief came over, I wouldn't be so easy to talk to."

After hearing this, everyone understood.

The 92nd Brigade was completely caught in an unprovoked disaster, or perhaps it just happened to be the right opportunity.

The current Chief of Staff of the Joint Staff is the old man from Chen Jun’s family, and the old man is one of the most powerful promoters of military reform.

When various units were disbanded and formed into new ones, the old man was definitely one of the people who least wanted to see the new units still carrying the baggage of the past.

It just so happens that this series of military exercises involves combined military training, and the 92nd Brigade is participating in the first battle, with the opponent being the old man's grandson-in-law.

Good guy.

The old man wants to see how his grandson-in-law performs. Is there anything wrong with that?

This kind of battle process is likely to be sent to the Joint Staff Headquarters and watched carefully and meticulously. By then, the Red Army’s violation of the exercise regulations will no longer be covered up.

How can the war zone not be angry?
Perhaps he had scolded enough, Xu Hesheng simply waved his hand and said, "Everyone else, go out. The 92nd Brigade should take advantage of these few days to reflect on yourselves and go to the commander-in-chief to review yourselves."

"Chen Jun stays here, the other comrades go out first."

At this time, it was announced that they had to vacate the area. Regardless of whether it was the 92nd Brigade or the 179th Brigade, all the officers present quickly stood up and left as if they had been pardoned.

The Chief of Staff’s anger is something that not everyone can bear.

Let Chen Jun enjoy this blessing.

Watching other people leave one after another.

Chen Jun was also a little confused. He sat there obediently, ready to listen to the teachings.

Xu Hesheng quickly calmed down his anger, glanced at Chen Jun and said, "Chen boy, I'm not praising you for keeping you this time."

"Your 179th Brigade also encountered many problems in this battle, especially the tank rolling with cluster grenades. Have you forgotten the military exercise accident in 14?"

"We will take advantage of these few days to make adjustments as soon as possible."

"Also, fight well in the next battle. The higher-ups will need to make corresponding adjustments based on the synthetic units."

"In the past, our main field forces included armored divisions, armored regiments, mechanized infantry divisions, motorized infantry brigades, and so on."

"The Joint Chiefs of Staff means that the main force after the synthesis cannot be too single-minded. There are too many auxiliary personnel for synthetic operations."

"This is our shortcoming. We must make adjustments. Your heavy assault this time did give the higher-ups some inspiration."

"Okay, the specific issues will be discussed in a subsequent war zone meeting. Your mission is to fight this battle well, use your abilities, and fight with all your might."

"You know?"

"Yes!!"

Chen Jun stood up and responded excitedly. He knew that another revolution in synthesis was coming. Light, heavy, medium, mountain synthesis in special areas, and air assault synthesis in various military regions would be launched one after another.

These combined brigades with different organizations were the basis for the invincible army of later generations.

In fact, light combined brigades had already been piloted at a very early time, but they had not been promoted on a large scale.

Military reform must be carried out step by step. Some roads must be tried out one by one. Nothing can be accomplished in one go.

The reason why Chen Jun was so excited was that he was too envious of the heavy armored combined brigade. You know, the heavy armored forces in the future will have aviation units.

If the firepower of a heavy combined brigade could really be placed in the 179th Brigade, it would be no exaggeration to say that it would not be too difficult to defeat the current 179th Brigade and the 92nd Brigade.

Not to mention it's easy, at least the so-called medium assault group can't do anything to the heavy armored brigade.

If that thing is placed on the battlefield, it will be able to control the entire battle situation.

Chief of Staff Xu didn't stay for long. He left after scolding someone.

When Chen Jun came out of the temporary command room of the 92nd Brigade, the sky outside had begun to turn dark, and fierce artillery sounds could be heard faintly in the distance.

This means that the red and blue armies in other regions have already started fighting.

The 179th Brigade has made a good start. The battle on their side is over, so how can other areas just sit there and wait?

After seeing off Chief of Staff Xu.

Chen Jun did not speak to Liu Xiang again and immediately took a car back to the Blue Army area in District 26.

The troops were supposed to be stationed here yesterday, but they were attacked by the Red Army, forcing them to move to Area 25.

Now that the Red Army in District 26 has been defeated, they don't need to worry about being attacked for the time being, and all the battalions of the 179th Brigade are setting up camps.

The soldiers were busy digging new dry toilets and setting up field tents, preparing for a peaceful night's rest.

But in the command room, Chen Jun was alone, still standing in front of the Fuzhou topographic map in a daze. He stared at the map for a long time without moving.

Chen Jun also wants to rest.

But the problem is that the war zone has already arranged the next enemy for the 179th Brigade, and this enemy is best at armored assault cluster tactics.

Moreover, technically speaking, their armored assault group is much stronger than the 179th Brigade, a unit that was trained halfway.

If they fight with their systems, they will most likely end up like the 92nd Brigade. But if they don't fight, relying solely on the tactics of vertical tank explosions will no longer be effective.

Because today, I just demonstrated to the 92nd Brigade how to crack the tactic of exchanging the damage of a single soldier for a tank.

The 236th Brigade is not stupid. Even if they imitate others, they can still cause heavy casualties to their own side.

This battle is not easy, but it must be fought.

To be honest, if Chen Jun didn't personally command his men to break the kinetic energy chain of the 236th Brigade's assault group, even he himself would not have been able to get over the psychological barrier.

But how to break it?
Chen Jun frowned and stared at the map.

The gullies and ravines on it seemed to be right in front of him. He was already very familiar with the terrain of Fuzhou.

But I couldn't think of a suitable solution.

Just as Chen Jun was thinking, Fatty He, the artillery battalion commander Wu Gaochuan, the reconnaissance battalion commander Xiao Jianfeng, and the combat support battalion commander Lu Zhengming came to the temporary command room together.

"Chief of Staff, aren't you going to rest yet?"

Fatty He walked into the tent and saw Chen Jun still staring at the map, even he had to admire Chen's perseverance.

I didn't sleep the whole night last night. I stayed up all day long, making battle plans and commanding the attack on the Red Army. Many soldiers in the camp were so tired that they fell into a deep sleep.

Chen Jun could actually hold on.

heard movement.

Chen Jun turned his head to take a look, then raised his hand to rub his temple, and said with a wry smile: "It's not that I don't want to sleep, but the head of the war zone has already notified me today."

"In this series of military exercises, our next opponent is the Red Army of District 31, which is also our old acquaintance, the 236th Brigade."

"I called you here to inform you that starting from tomorrow, your support battalion, reconnaissance battalion, artillery battalion and the first battalion will jointly select some soldiers."

"Draw me a topographical map of the entire 26th District in the shortest possible time. The 236th Brigade is currently fighting their opponents."

“We have plenty of time to fix it.”

"We know who we are going to fight in advance, and we have enough time to rest. If we still can't find a way to defeat the 236th Brigade, it will be unreasonable."

When the chief of staff mentioned the 236th Brigade, several battalion commanders who came over looked at each other in bewilderment.

Fatty He can't help with this kind of thing.

After all, the opponent is a brigade, not a battalion-level unit, and the 236th Brigade played a fearless and ruthless style during the last joint training.

The crowd really had no other options except to fight head-on. Even if they arranged a cluster dynamic chain in advance, they would probably still be no match for the enemy.

After all, the 179th Brigade learned this tactic from others, and it was almost like strangling the lifeline of their own side.

What's more, you have to know how to say some things.

The 236th Brigade does need to fight and has no chance to rest for the time being.

But if the opponent defeats the Blue Army in this battle, they will be able to move from District 31 to District 26 with the momentum of victory, when their morale is at its highest.

I am afraid that such a Red Army will be more difficult to fight than the 92nd Brigade, a Red Army unit that is only proud and worried about failure.

It is several times more difficult to fight.

Looking at the cadres in front of him, none of whom had done any work, he began to look worried.

Chen Jun originally wanted to call them over to ask about some details of the battle during the day to see if he could find a way to deal with it.

Seeing that they all had frowns on their faces and were more worried than himself, he simply waved his hand and scolded with a smile: "That's enough, get out of here, go back and rest."

"Don't sigh in front of me. The war hasn't started yet. Remember, bring me a detailed topographic map of District 26 before dark tomorrow."

"Yes, Chief of Staff."

Fatty He and his companions knew they could not help much, so after staying for a while, they left in a hurry.

late at night.

Chen Jun was still thinking hard about tactics to defeat the enemy. He combined various details of the group dynamic chain attack on the Red Army during the day.

Just when he was feeling bored and had no ideas.

It suddenly flashed through my mind that during the day, the Red Army of the 92nd Brigade had sent out an armored reconnaissance battalion from the flank to raid their own logistics.

At that time, the cluster dynamic chain formation was too large, and the surprise attack of the Red Army reconnaissance battalion really brought some trouble to themselves.

However, since the formation of the cluster dynamic chain could not be moved randomly, in the end, the main force of the fourth combined battalion had to be arranged to destroy the Red Army's reconnaissance battalion.

Raid, sudden.
Chen Jun carefully recalled the scene at that time. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he couldn't help laughing.

"Xiao Wu! Xiao Wu?!!"

"Hey! Here comes the battalion commander."

Li Wujie was squatting on the side and taking a nap. When he suddenly heard Chen Jun's voice, he quickly wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

Ran over quickly.

Chen Jun didn't care about these details at all. He waved his hand and said, "Go, arrange for me to watch a segment of Animal World."

"Especially the video of a pack of wolves fighting a tiger. Find me a few more and project them onto the terminal."

"A pack of wolves? A pack of tigers?!"

Li Wujie had just woken up, and when he heard that Animal World was going to be shown, his mind went blank.

In the animal world, are there any wolves that dare to challenge a tiger?
