Chapter 481 Preparation for War, the Most Difficult Situation

Coming out of the military district conference room, Chen Jun raised his hand and rubbed his temple. He also had a premonition of the upcoming military training.

It might be more difficult.

No wonder when I came here for the meeting before, Feng Lu and that old bastard Ji Tong both reminded me to be careful.

Since the commander-in-chief said at the meeting that each unit should refine its internal plans.

No need to think about it.

I'm afraid there is really no script for this military training, at least there is no script for the part where the troops are dispatched.

Of course, don't get me wrong.

When we say there is no script, we don’t mean allowing tens of thousands of people to run around randomly and attack and fight at will.

That's even more impossible.

The so-called "no script" in the exercise only means that a small amount of autonomy is released to the units.

Maybe it is purely for the purpose of training the personal organizational ability of the cadres in each unit.

Because if there is no script for a large-scale military training, there is no way to organize it at all.

How do I describe this thing?

Not to mention large-scale exercises, even the company’s and class’s training have texts.

If the script is called using professional military terms, it should be called an exercise document.

Looking back in time, some early military exercises actually had not only scripts, but also lines.

Can you believe it?

Exercise documents are generally used to record the purpose, content, and tactical and campaign background of the exercise.

If there is a confrontation involved, the content of the confrontation, the method of confrontation, how to determine the casualties in the confrontation, and the detailed data of the determination must be clearly stated.

In the past, people often wondered: in a war, what’s the point of both sides strictly following the confrontation process prescribed by the script?
In fact, this kind of thing cannot be measured by whether it is meaningful or not.

To put it bluntly, commanding a war is not a child's game after all. It is not as simple as imagined.

Let me give you an example.

It was an exercise that was strictly carried out according to the script. The number of people was not large. One hundred people was equivalent to the size of a company. There was no confrontation. It was just a gathering, marching and stationing under a tactical background.

It was such a simple task, but we followed the exercise script and were able to complete it without making any mistakes or leading our brothers into trouble. This was already considered quite outstanding.

It can be said that people with such abilities are not the majority in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad.

As for why it is so difficult.

That is because in a real tactical context, almost every aspect of human knowledge can be used. Not only must one understand the methods of action, but one must also master a lot of basic knowledge.

From poetry and songs to astronomy and geography, from cooking to building bridges and roads.

Even if there is a small river ahead, to determine whether you can cross it, you have to look at the riverbed, the flow rate, the water temperature, and consider whether to build a bridge, wade, or swim across.

You need to consider whether the enemy will block you while you cross the river and whether there are other potential dangers in the river.

What if you get lost during the march? There are no stars or moon, it's pitch black, the compass is broken, there are bears howling in the mountains, and the soldiers are bitten by snakes. As a commander, you are extremely trapped.

The superior also required that it must be achieved within two hours. Even when I had no idea where I was, I realized the importance of the script.

It can be said that without a script, a war cannot evolve.

It is simply unrealistic to rely solely on the staff of the headquarters and other units to prepare action plans and combat documents.

There will be many loopholes, mistakes, and situations where execution is completely impossible.

The real purpose of the script is to train the troops' operational capabilities, test their ability to withstand pressure in a close-to-real environment, and train the troops' individual qualities and ability to understand commands.

Let the troops become familiar with the operational procedures, the field combat environment, and the weapons and firepower.

This time, the military region arranged for each unit to refine its internal plans, and instructed the Joint Logistics Department, the Training Department, and the General Staff Department to fully cooperate with the six combined brigades.

This is because without the full cooperation of these units, a brigade of thousands of people and thousands of tanks will not be able to successfully maneuver to the training area.

almost impossible.

Not to mention any railway transportation, the railway does not go directly from the camp gate to the battlefield area.

There was no cooperation from the military district departments. The roads to the railway had to be blocked, water, fuel and other logistics along the way had to be replenished in a timely manner, and personnel travel had to be planned.

As for eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping after arriving at the combat zone, these are not things that a single combat unit can handle on its own.

If there is a script, it means that these issues have been planned for you in advance, and you just need to follow the orders and do it.

The higher-ups don't follow the script and have to solve problems along the way on their own, and this is what gives Chen Jun the most headache.

Because he doesn't even know where the training area will be.

What gave him even more headaches was.

The rules of this training were not announced in advance, and only a few days of preparation time were given.

It’s not easy to fix.

. . . . . . . . .

Two hours later.

Feng Qiuhu and Chen Jun rushed back to the 179th Brigade and immediately convened a meeting of all the cadres in the brigade.

The conference room was filled with smoke.

Chen Jun sat quietly in the chair, still thinking about some details of this training.

After all, he hasn't paid much attention to what's happening outside recently because of the rectification issues.

As a result, his source of information was a little later than that of Feng Lu and that old bastard Ji Tong.

He had just learned about the arrangements for the National Day military training.

Some news needs to be digested.

Feng Qiuhu, as the brigade commander, was the first to speak.

Old Feng first glanced at the battalion commanders and instructors of the brigade, and then said in a deep voice: "Comrades, I will not repeat the same old things."

“As National Day approaches, I believe everyone understands the key points of this meeting.”

“I would like to emphasize a few points.”

"First, immediately after the meeting, gather all the comrades in the brigade who have requested leave and return to the team in time. Before noon tomorrow, each battalion must submit the specific personnel details to the brigade."

"Second, after midnight tonight, the National Day war preparation will be officially launched. I don't need to emphasize this to you too much."

"I will notify the duty stations of your battalions at midnight to sound the air defense alarm, but combat readiness must be fully strengthened starting this afternoon." "Third, our brigade has never experienced a large-scale military exercise. This time, we will not draw lots, but all 18 combined brigades in the theater will participate in the war."

"At present, the theater has only given a scale, and the specific planning may not be ready yet. After all, such a large scale cannot be completed in a short time."

"You don't need to think about it so much. After the meeting, the instructors of each battalion will appoint instructors for each company as soon as possible to be responsible for stabilizing the thoughts and calming the soldiers' emotions. They will also take as much time as possible to provide centralized guidance."

"Understand?"

"Yes!!"

Feng Qiuhu gave all the instructions and even did the work of the political commissar.

This made the political commissar Xu Wensheng standing next to him straighten his back, and finally he pouted and leaned back in his chair without saying a word.

This is not to say that Lao Feng is stealing jobs or something. He used to be the chief of staff and often went to the grassroots.

It is very clear that when the exercise is approaching, a newly formed unit will easily be filled with panic and anxiety when faced with such a large-scale training scene.

How important it is to promptly arrange for political cadres to organize and designate personnel to be responsible for ideological stability maintenance work.

After Feng Lu finished explaining the situation, everyone turned their eyes to Chen Jun, who remained silent.

Noticing everyone's gaze, Chen Jun calmed down and said, "Well, let me summarize a few points."

"First of all, the difficulty we encounter in this exercise may exceed that of any previous exercise."

"I am not here to pour cold water on you, nor am I here to alarm you. Informationized warfare is different from the large-scale combat in the past, and it requires higher concealment of the troops."

"Comrades present here have all led the First Battalion under my command before. You can imagine that in the upcoming training battlefield, our opponents will be reinforced First Battalions."

Chen Jun uttered a few words lightly.

There were some relaxed officials in the meeting room.

After hearing what he said, almost everyone felt a chill in their hearts, and even their heartbeats uncontrollably accelerated.

Yes.

How could they have forgotten this?

When we trained in the past, our opponents were motorized infantry, mechanized infantry, armored regiments, and artillery regiments, all units that everyone was familiar with.

This time, although they are equally familiar with the combined combat organization, you cannot be familiar with the opponent's endless tactics.

For example, drones. There were almost no drones on the battlefield before, but now each combined brigade is probably filled with drones flying all over the sky.

They have technologies such as visual command, radar, electronic jamming, etc., which other units also have.

The reform of synthesis and informatization not only makes the combat effectiveness of the troops stronger.

As a result, the situation on the battlefield became extremely complicated.

With the help of this kind of informatization, two equally organized troops can compete with each other to the extreme, and all kinds of crazy ideas can be extended.

It will infinitely increase the difficulty of battlefield confrontation.

In fact, what Brigade Captain Feng said just now is very true. That is the reason why the war zone did not notify the military training plan now.

It's not that the higher-ups are being mysterious, but assembling so many combined brigades to fight and writing exercise texts has stumped many experienced veteran staff officers.

Since we are fighting according to a script, the script should at least meet the various combat conditions under informatization, right?

But the problem is that the experience of the old staff officer is not very useful when applied to the scale of this military training.

Someone in the theater training department suggested that Chen Jun participate in the compilation of the exercise text.

But it was suppressed and not adopted.

The reason is simple. If Chen Jun were to compile the text, he would not only design how to play, but also participate in the play. How the hell would others be able to play then?
The 179th Brigade is the big brother among the combined forces, and its status as such cannot disqualify it from participating in the war.

The theater and the military region are well aware of Feng Qiuhu's abilities. It may be difficult to command the entire combined brigade to fully unleash the power of the combined forces.

Therefore, the difficulty of this military training was not only faced by the participating troops, but even the directorate above who was responsible for arranging how to fight was a bit confused.

Because of their limited energy, they had to give up some contingency plans.

Let the various military regions take responsibility and consider it as training.

Watch your reminders being taken seriously.

Chen Jun straightened his body and continued, "However, comrades, there is no need to worry too much."

"What we can do now is to take this training seriously."

"Due to the popularization of information technology, all battalions should note that the command post must not be fixed in one place and must be constantly moved."

"Avoid the enemy from directly locking onto your position through triangulation."

"After the meetings of the various battalions, during the recent combat readiness period, we must strengthen radar training, especially the early warning radar characteristics, and conduct targeted training."

"Don't let an emergency occur and you fail to understand the radar warning features, which will cause delays in the fighter plane."

"Combat Support Battalion, you must strengthen radioactive contamination training in a targeted manner, and make sure to implement the three prevention measures and be prepared for the next battle."

"During training and marching, we must pay close attention to any abnormal features along the way. Any situation that does not match reality must be investigated with all our strength. In the past, we could ignore some of the reconnaissance methods used by large corps in combat. Under information technology, all units have the ability to destroy as soon as they discover."

"We can no longer let things go in many areas and avoid the period of no response."

"About the specific plan for this military training."

"Please don't ask me how to deal with it, because even if you ask me, I can't give you an answer. All the comrades present here have read books."

"You should understand that if a student wants to get a good score in the middle school entrance examination or the college entrance examination, the best way is to practice questions, practice questions, and practice questions again. When you have practiced enough question types,

"Then your grades will definitely not be bad."

"Do you understand what I'm saying?"

"clear!!!"

In the conference room, all battalion-level officers stood up and responded loudly.

Chen Jun's speech indeed made everyone aware of this military training.

It's very tricky.

How could this not be tricky? The combined brigade has been established for more than half a year, and each unit is not very familiar with the use of combined coordinated operations.

But there should be nothing wrong with some information-based equipment, right?

At a time like this, God knows what kind of weird things the directorate and the opponents will do on the training ground.

Chen Jun was not very sure about it.
