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

Chapter 511: Data Review, a Sign of the Coming Storm
There was thunderous applause.

Chen Jun's whole spirit and energy seemed to give people a different feeling.

After all, carrying the rank of lieutenant colonel and carrying the rank of colonel are completely different visuals.

Restrained and steady, a faint aura of majesty without even being angry was displayed from this young boy.

After Chen Junli finished.

He nodded slightly to the leader who promoted him and saluted again, and was about to turn around and leave.

The Eastern Political Commissar, who was sitting in the first seat, suddenly smiled and said, "Colonel Chen."

"arrive!!"

Seeing Chen Jun's reserved response, Political Commissar Chai waved his hand with a smile: "Today is the review meeting. I would like to take this opportunity to announce your promotion. Shouldn't you share a few words?"

"Or you can tell me about this series of exercises and your personal views before reviewing them."

share?!!

The leader's sudden request made Chen Jun stunned.

Even if he was slow to react, he realized that the second round of military reforms targeting the war zone might really be implemented.

The unit that implemented it is most likely the 179th Brigade. Otherwise, a review conference of this scale would not have been able to build momentum for him again and again.

That’s right, it’s all about building momentum!

Push him and the 179th Brigade behind him to the front line of the war zone.

Because for a conference of this scale, unless it is necessary, the higher-ups would not allow him, the chief of staff, to stand on the stage and waste too much time.

Not everyone has the opportunity to speak in front of so many leaders in the war zone.

"Yes, Comrade Chief!!"

As the political commissar spoke.

All the officers in the audience turned their eyes to Chen Jun, and the chief who had just read out the promotion order for him also handed him the microphone.

Chen Jun took a deep breath. There was no news about this at all in advance, and he was a little confused about how to perform on the spot.

But anyway, I have some experience myself.

After forcing himself to calm down, Chen Jun saluted again and said loudly, "Regarding sharing, I will not talk about sharing in front of all the seniors. Let me talk about the topic of combat."

"Last year, during the training at the National Defense University, I met a comrade. At that time, I had just experienced the annual military exercise, and I mentioned this exercise during a casual chat."

"That comrade once participated in the Foreign Military Assistance Corps. He asked me a question."

"This question has been lingering in my mind until now. The title is: What do you think the enemy looks like?"

The shape of the enemy? ! !
When they heard Chen Jun suddenly mention this, many officers in the conference room half-squinted their eyes.

This statement is quite novel.

Even Shen Hongwei, Yi Zhengming and others on the stage were attracted.

Chen Jun knew that his sharing had aroused everyone's interest.

He continued: "When I heard this question, many thoughts flashed through my mind."

“But I don’t know how to describe it specifically.”

"That comrade told me a story. This story happened in the aid group. It was a small episode during a small-scale conflict in a certain area."

"There were more than a dozen enemies. Now that I think about it, maybe it would be most appropriate to call them KBFZ. In order to force the aid group to leave the camp, these people captured a local girl."

"Probably around eight or nine years old."

In order to make his narration more vivid, Chen Jun even stood on the stage and stretched out his hand to compare the height of the little girl.

"They warned the little girl that as long as she didn't cry, shout or block the way while cutting off her legs, they would let her go."

"Faced with a group of vicious people, the little girl was very scared and just closed her mouth tightly and nodded helplessly."

"But the knife was too slow and painful to hit the knee, so the girl couldn't help but put her hand out to block it."

"The final outcome was that she blocked it and broke the rules set by those people, so."

“I think what these people are doing is the shape of the enemy.”

Chen Jun finished speaking.

It was obvious that the entire conference room was shrouded in a cold and angry atmosphere.

The people present are all brave men who lead field armies.

I can't bear to hear this kind of thing.

Angry, because everyone knows that this is not a story.

Xu Wensheng, the political commissar of the 179th Brigade, who was sitting in the audience, couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw Chen Jun mention these things at this time.

It’s not that the occasion was inappropriate.

But it deviates too much from the topic of today's meeting.

It is okay to preach, but Chen Jun cannot be the one to preach.

However, those people on the stage didn't say anything, so Political Commissar Xu stopped worrying about it.

But Chen Jun seemed to be unaware of it and continued loudly: "In fact, throughout every peaceful period in history, ordinary people thought they were in a civilized era."

"Actually, it's not like that. There has never been any civilized era. There are only countries in the civilized era."

"Otherwise, where did the saying of two-legged sheep come from? War is a catastrophe. Looking through history books, we have experienced more suffering than any other nation."

"The population is decreasing by tens of millions at any time, and what happened to the little girl in the story just now is something we also experienced a few decades ago."

"This hatred seems like yesterday!"

"If it happens to one person, it can be called a tragedy. But if it happens to a nation, it cannot be called a tragedy. It is a national hatred and family feud."

"So we, our soldiers, must always bear in mind the shape of the enemy. We should not talk about the bottom line on the battlefield, let alone talk about high-sounding things, because that will only make us gradually forget the true shape of the enemy."

"I really like the fighting style of Brigadier General Lin, who fights tooth for tooth and repays evil with justice."

"When we were fighting the 3rd Brigade, the Blue Army only disrupted the Red Army's communications once, and the Red Army's retaliation was to continuously fire electromagnetic jammers."

"Our entire Blue Army group was forced to stay at home for nearly 18 hours. As a last resort, we had to use the infantry defense line to block the Red Army's attack."

"When I ordered the electronic warfare company to lock on to the Red Army headquarters, the Red Army's counter-reconnaissance used its high mobility to airdrop a firepower company near our headquarters to carry out the decapitation operation."

"They retaliate in the quickest and dirtiest way possible."

"Whether soldiers are used to defend peace or to attack is a matter of opinion."

"But in the last battle of District 26, I saw Lin Lu take the most ruthless revenge he could think of, using methods that would not actually cause permanent damage."

"He played the enemy's image very well, and I also hope that as a soldier, I will never forget the enemy's image."

“Thank you everyone!!”

Chen Jun spoke a lot before he raised his hand to salute! !
And offstage.

After just a moment of silence, there was another round of warm applause.

Don't forget the shape of the enemy.

This is what Chen Jun said when explaining why the 179th Brigade used every possible means in the exercise.

In fact, many methods were blocked by the director's office, otherwise every battle would not be so difficult to fight.

In the information age, there are too many dirty and unscrupulous tactics to be used.

Things like invading the armed forces, sending false news about family members' deaths to shake morale, and using public channels to notify false news of elimination to confuse the public are nothing.

Chen Jun didn't use poisoning the underground water network or fake battle damage. The director's office had no choice but to stop it. The exercise was to train soldiers, not to train legs.

Rather than letting Chen Jun mess around like this, it would be better to let him directly simulate a nuclear strike, which would be much easier.

Wait for the applause to die down.

The people sitting in the top seats did not say anything else. The chief of staff who was in charge of presiding over the meeting informed Chen Jun that he could leave.

Then he picked up the microphone and said in a loud voice: "Okay, Colonel Chen's sharing is very good."

"Next, let's read out the data of the 2017 Sword Sharpening Campaign."

"This military exercise is stipulated as a series of exercises, with a total of 18 participating troops in nine regions."

"According to the feedback from the final combat results and compared with the data from previous exercises, the information-based synthetic organization structure has improved its mobility efficiency by 32% compared with mechanized forces of the same size."

"Military transportation has not seen much growth compared to the past."

"Throughout the operation, the information exchange rate per unit time for radar operations, electronic operations, drone reconnaissance and strike, tactical missiles and other units increased by 67% compared to the previous similar forces."

"The assault capability of the troops has been increased by 31%."

"The overall logistics support efficiency has increased by 43%."

"In addition, this exercise involved a total of 22 tactical command information, and the unit executed command actions 641 times, with an overall execution efficiency of 10."

"The above military modeling data is based on the comprehensive values ​​of various units in the exercise, the opinions of the military modeling staff, and the synthetic brigade-level units. In terms of firepower, mobility, assault, joint operations, logistics support, command execution feedback, evaluation results, etc., they are basically equivalent to the previous mechanical units."

"But at the same time, our synthesis requires higher communication and electronic authentication capabilities, and our battlefield survivability is not as good as the original armored units."

"Including battlefield depth, multi-point tactical target direction strikes, and synthetic controllable battlefield scale, it is only about 40% of the original armored forces."

"."

Since this is the first time for each combined force brigade to participate in such a large-scale exercise, the theater has very accurate statistics on various data.

Chen Jun sat in the audience and listened carefully. Some of the data sounded like a significant increase year-on-year. That was because in the past, motorized infantry, mechanized infantry and other units did not have any electronic warfare units at all.

There is only a radar unit, but no large-scale technical reconnaissance personnel. There are only a few people responsible for maintaining communications. How can it be compared with today's electronic warfare company?
So although the initial data sounds like a significant increase, they are actually some unnecessary statistics.

The latter statistics are the most real.

The comprehensive combat effectiveness of many units of the current combined forces brigade is not as good as that of the previous mechanized infantry brigade or armored division.

There's nothing we can do about it.

The combat methods of the mechanized era have been deeply rooted in many officers.

With so many information elements suddenly added in, it’s hard to say how 100% the execution rate of the instructions given from above can be achieved.

Not even 50 percent.

This means that of the two instructions above, the following can only understand one at most, or simply give the instructions at random.

The subordinate combat units are simply unable to meet this kind of coordination requirements.

The data from training will be discounted by half when used in actual combat.

This is not difficult to see from the data.

The combined brigades of various military commands are now coordinating operations and adapting to the changes in combined equipment and main combat equipment.

Still in the first stage.

Simply adopting mixed operations and failing to understand the true meaning of synthesis, they are indeed inferior to previous mechanized forces in terms of tactical investment.

There are a lot of things involved here.

The most direct problem is that the battlefield survivability and command system of battalion-level units are too weak to control a battlefield composed of complex combat units.

Let’s take the simplest example.

Currently, when various units are fighting, the control of the battlefield still needs to be coordinated through intensive communications.

The 236th Brigade is the most classic example.

After they broke through, they encountered a command gap.

A lot of firepower was lost due to poor command.

In this regard, they have not even reached the level of the previous combined battalion, which could accurately locate the soldiers' battlefield positions by relying solely on the Beidou individual soldier locator system.

Information technology is quickly put into service and weapons are updated and upgraded at an accelerated pace.

Professional informationized troops contribute their experience to field units and create firepower that is independent of mechanized units.

Everything seems to be going well.

But one thing has been overlooked. In wars, weapons have always been controlled by people, although each unit has been fully equipped with information technology.

But thinking cannot be completely changed in a short period of time.

This takes time and requires sufficient external pressure to facilitate it.

"Tell me about it."

Just as Chen Jun was listening to the data and thinking, he didn't know when the data report was over.

The spokesperson has been changed from the chief of staff to the commander-in-chief Shen Hongwei.

As soon as Commander Shen opened his mouth, all the officers in the conference room sat up straight in unison.

In an instant, a solemn atmosphere filled the meeting place.

Everyone present felt a sense of oppression.

Because of this data, Chen Jun can analyze the current situation of each unit, and other officers can do the same.

The commander-in-chief was going to speak, and there would definitely be nothing good to say. In fact, many people present were already prepared to be criticized.

Commander Shen swept his tiger eyes across the stage, and then said in a cold tone: "I have finished talking about the data. I don't want to hear the detailed report anymore."

"After going down, each military region's training and operations department will review and summarize the situation on their own and submit the final report to me."

"Let me talk about the human problem."

"Originally, this question is not for me to discuss. All of you comrades here have your own direct superiors."

"but!"

Shen Hongwei's eyes were serious, and a hidden anger was already burning fiercely.

In fact, it is quite rare for the commander-in-chief to directly criticize the leaders of each brigade.

The army emphasizes management at each level. With his status, the most he can do is to give encouragement before the war and come and listen after the war.

As long as criticism is made, it means directly denying the work of the three subordinate group units 71, 72 and 73.

"However, I need to remind everyone present, all the comrades present, especially the commanders of the participating troops."

"You are the chosen ones of heaven, the commanders of a unit, and the best of each military region."

"If war breaks out tomorrow, are you ready to go to the battlefield?"

"Just now a comrade talked about the shape of the enemy, and I have been thinking about this question."

"Combining the data from this operation, are you really ready?"

Shen Hongwei's tone became heavier again.

For a moment, the atmosphere on the scene was depressing. This was a question to all the commanders.

At this moment, who dares to say more?
