From the 7th Steel Company to the Synthetic Division

Chapter 199 Captain Tie wants someone from the running group!
The Electronic Countermeasures Company officially moved into the Sixth Company, which was half a year earlier than in the original plot.

The butterfly effect has affected the army group. It can be seen that because Chen Jun appeared in this world, the efforts he made have penetrated into the army group.

And in January of 1998, something even bigger happened.

That is the military reform that has been constantly warmed up but the final order has never been implemented. It has finally been officially launched in this new year.

The concept of "information warfare" was formally proposed! !

It directly points out that the fourth military revolution of mankind is the information-based military revolution.

It also marks that the technological form of human warfare will rapidly transition from the era of mechanized warfare to a new era of informationized warfare.

In order to adapt to the changing nature of warfare, our military will launch information-based military reforms.

Various reform-related documents and military reform orders from the highest level of the Central Military Commission were passed on like dumplings, from the army group to the division headquarters and finally to the regiment.

It was passed down from one level to another and finally reached each company.

but.

The leaders also know that reform is a long-term process and cannot be accomplished in one day.

So although the documents have been conveyed from above, for the vast majority of other troops, many of them are actually just instructions.

Only a small part of it is a reform order for the entire army.

True army-wide reform will have to wait until the first wave of pilot reforms in large units is completed, and will be determined based on the final effectiveness of the reformed units.

The first thing to do is to make earth-shaking adjustments and carry out drastic reforms in the troops from top to bottom.

It is a heroic unit with outstanding military exploits. It has made outstanding contributions in the long modern history of the Chinese military and is known as the "First Army Group", the best army in the world.

This army group can be traced back to 1930, when it was the Second Red Army during the period of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.

In the smoke of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, they grew into the First Column of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Field Army, fought bravely in difficult environments, and made outstanding contributions to the liberation.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, it was renamed the First Army.

He devoted himself to the liberation war in various parts of the country, participated in 163 major battles, and suppressed bandits and killed more than 100,000 remnants of the Kuomintang army.

In the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea in 1953, the PLA once again annihilated more than enemies in more than battles.

no doubt.

He is one of the strongest army groups in our army!

If we are to take action, we should mobilize the best army group and use the best troops as the pioneers of reform. This shows how determined the leaders are to carry out this reform.

It can be concluded from the documents issued that the biggest aspects of this military reform are three.

The first major direction is to pilot the transformation of divisions into brigades.

The United States' combined forces brigade has performed amazingly on the battlefield. Actual combat and various data simulations have proven that it has sufficient advantages in the information age.

Therefore, in order to keep up with the pace of informatization, the first step for our army is to start with the most basic organization.

I just don’t know whether foreign products will be suitable for our country, and whether they really have advantages. It is still unknown at the moment.

and other concerns.

The transformation of divisions into brigades was not promoted across the board, and not even all Class A units were involved. It was only piloted in a few units such as the First Army.

Be careful not to take too big a step at the beginning and end up hurting yourself, as it will be difficult to change back later.

Moreover, even when the First Army Group took the lead in the pilot project, the leaders above were very cautious and did not go all in right from the beginning.

Simply put, the 3rd Motorized Infantry Division under the First Army was reorganized into a Motorized Infantry Brigade.

By abolishing the intermediate regiment-level organization, the division-level units will be downgraded to deputy-division-level motorized infantry brigades, and the brigades will directly command the operations of multiple battalions.

Through a flatter command hierarchy, command can become more efficient.

Unless there are special circumstances, troop reports must be passed on step by step. It is against regulations to pass them across levels. By missing a regiment in the middle and passing the report one level less, the command can be made more efficient while keeping all other communications unchanged.

Combined with the high technology of the information age, the intention is to greatly improve command efficiency.

Enabling the troops to have faster response capabilities highlights the urgency of our army's transformation into a quality-oriented, efficient, and technology-intensive modern army.

If the final pilot verification result of the First Army's 3rd Motorized Infantry Division to convert the division into a brigade is very successful.

Then in the next one or two years, the First Army will definitely implement a comprehensive division-to-brigade transformation and become the first fully-brigade-based army in our army.

In conjunction with the Zhurihe Combined Tactical Base, which will be put into use next year and is equipped with five major systems, the First Army will be "sharpening its knives" in various ways.

The future combat effectiveness of the First Army will inevitably be greatly improved.

of course.

anyway.

This is the case if the pilot is successful.

If the transformation of the 3rd Motorized Infantry Division into a brigade is not ideal, I am afraid that the situation will be completely opposite and the full promotion of the reform throughout the army will be delayed.

The leaders above did not have the ability to foresee and did not know that all the army’s divisions would be transformed into brigades in 2016, proving that this path was correct.

In their hearts...

This reform is a risky one and the outcome is unpredictable.

After seeing the relevant instructions and documents from his superiors, Chen Jun knew that converting divisions into brigades was a major trend in the future, and that the T Division might eventually become the T Brigade.

But Chen Jun is not worried now because he still has 18 years.

Before the comprehensive division-to-brigade reform in 16, which transformed the seven military regions into five war zones, he must have transformed the th Steel Company into a combined division.

As for the later transformation of the division into a brigade under the general trend, and as the first combined battalion and the first combined company in the entire army, its special status made it a special case.

Become the only southern synthesizer!

The four major synthesis divisions in the north that finally remained echoed with each other across the mountains and rivers of the motherland and became a legend of a generation. That was a matter for the future.

Now Chen Jun’s goal is to form a combined division and make the 7th Steel Company the 7th Steel Division that Man Guangzhi fears.

……

The second military reform of the First Army Group is to transform and reshape the traditional tank divisions.

All tank divisions of the First Army, as well as the 10th Tank Division of the former Nanjing Military Region, were given a new name, replacing the prefix "tank" with "armored".

Although it is just a change of two words, it is actually a very crucial change.

A traditional tank division is a standard tank unit. Apart from tanks, there is basically nothing else, and the tactical style is very simple.

It's a torrent of steel!

By changing from a tank unit to an armored unit, other arms can be added, such as mechanized artillery and air defense units, to cooperate in combat.

Multi-service combat not only increases firepower advantage, but also provides a certain self-defense capability.

Unless they encounter enemy armed helicopters or long-range artillery suppression, the tank will be reduced to a tortoise shell and its combat effectiveness will plummet.

There's nothing we can do except call for friendly support.

The last and third largest section of reforms is mainly about upgrading the traditional infantry divisions.

Traditional infantry divisions or armored infantry divisions are standard land combat units, which are obviously not enough in the information age.

Multifunctional, diverse, multi-technical...

These are all standard labels for informatization. Tank units must be transformed into armored units, with air defense and long-range artillery strike capabilities, and infantry must also have a wider battlefield.

In this wave of information-based reforms, superior leaders chose to make the infantry amphibious.

Not only against infantry, but also against tanks.

Not only will the amphibious construction of the 10th Armored Division be strengthened, but the focus will also be on strengthening the traditional infantry divisions of the First Army and transforming them into new amphibious infantry divisions.

Among them, the 1st Division was selected as a pilot representative and was officially reorganized into an amphibious mechanized infantry division.

The infantry can rely on the Type 89 troop carrier, which has the ability to float on water, as well as new amphibious combat equipment developed.

Extending the combat range from land to sea allows traditional infantry to fight near the coast.

Not only the Navy but also the Marine Corps.

The Army also has amphibious infantry.

In addition to the changes in these three major sectors, this modern military reform also involves many other detailed adjustments, most of which are still based on pilot projects.

It can be foreseen that in the next few years, pilot projects will blossom across the entire army.

This military reform, which has the courage to break with tradition and started from the heroic First Army, will bring about improvements that will enable our army to go global.

The initial stage of military reform mainly focused on the First Army Group, and there were not many changes to the Eighty-fourth Army Group.

The T Division as a whole was not affected too much, and it was still mainly focused on advancing the "combined battalion", and the 702nd Regiment also revolved around it.

However, another team, Battalion A, which serves as a pilot unit of our army and is also tasked with an arduous mission, will also begin a new round of major changes.

That was the All-Officers Company from the very beginning, a mysterious force that had never been known to the outside world.

They officially unveiled their mysterious veil and began the first external open recruitment for all military units for the upcoming anti-terrorism process.

The official order has come down from above, and it is a red-headed document written in black and white.

The railway had long wanted to take a soft approach, but had not been able to think of a good reason before. Now that they had received the order, they could not wait to call Yuan Lang to set off.

The two men first flew directly to the T Division headquarters by helicopter, gave the order to the T Division and then transferred to the 702nd Regiment.

If you want to recruit people from someone's group, you must inform the head of the group first. This is not only a matter of courtesy, but you cannot recruit people without saying anything.

What's more, the two of them had "ulterior motives" and had to cover up their guilty consciences.

of course.

Neither Yuan Lang nor Tie Lu said it to Chen Jun's face. They were mainly targeting Chen Jun. If they had said so, the division would definitely have been angry.

Not to mention agreeing to give orders to the 702nd Regiment and cooperate with their recruitment work this time.

The two of them were afraid that they would not be able to leave the group.

After obtaining the relevant approval documents from T, Tielu and Yuan Lang split up and acted in two groups.

Yuan Lang went to the 702nd Regiment alone to find Chen Jun, avoiding the troublesome regiment directly, starting from the bottom and facing Chen Jun, the person involved.

Assuming that Tielu has not gained anything in the group, Yuan Lang will directly face the protagonist Chen Jun. As long as he is willing to invest, there may be room for turnaround.

Even if you think about the worst, you can still get something out of it.

It won’t be a completely wasted trip!
Tielu went straight to the 702nd Regiment with the order, and first contacted Commander Wang in a formal manner to have a contest between the regiment leaders.

If you don't get it, think of other ways.

It is safer to be prepared in multiple ways.

The T Division was closer to the headquarters of the 702nd Regiment, so Railway arrived at the headquarters first and met Commander Wang easily.

It's easy to meet someone, but it's hard to find someone.

When Captain Wang first met the other party, he was very polite. Knowing that the other party had orders from the division, he took the initiative to offer him a cigarette.

The two sides had held an exercise before, and it ended in a draw with neither side defeating the other, and there was no grudge between them.

However, when the railway took out the approval document from the division, Captain Wang saw the content of the document and found that it asked the 702nd Regiment to cooperate with Battalion A in recruiting soldiers.

The smile on Captain Wang’s face disappeared.

Then he said that he had very urgent official business and needed to read the document and make instructions as soon as possible, so he asked Tielu to sit on the sofa and have a rest for a while.

It took nearly half an hour to dry, but Captain Wang didn't see even a bubble.

Given the originally unruly character of the railway, if anyone dared to leave him alone like this under normal circumstances, he would have stood up and left long ago.

Not to mention half an hour.

Not even five minutes.

But this time I really need someone's help, so I can only force myself to be patient and wait for so long.

He didn't even dare to ask Captain Wang, but just kept looking at the watch on his wrist, and deliberately coughed every time he looked at it.

Captain Wang caught Tielu's little movement out of the corner of his eye and knew that Tielu was reminding him not to go too far.

Captain Wang didn't want to go too far at first, but when he thought about the railway actually coming to his regiment to recruit people, he couldn't get over the anger if he didn't put pressure on the railway.

Seeing that time was almost up, Captain Wang didn't want to go too far.

He picked up the cigarette on the table and threw it forward, dropping it on the table in front of Railway, and said without raising his head: "I'll be done soon, you can have another cigarette first."

"I said, Lao Wang..."

Tielu didn't take the cigarettes on the table. He crossed his legs and leaned back on the chair, saying darkly, "If you want to leave me here to vent your anger, just say it directly. Don't make it seem like a business matter.

"It's just a matter of two minutes, but you've been flipping through these few pieces of paper in your hand for so long, turning them left and right. Aren't you worried that they might get torn to pieces?"

The acting had been exposed by the other party. Seeing that he could no longer act, Captain Wang simply stopped.

"I don't know who your A Battalion is and I don't want to know. I only know that you are here to take people, which means you are just digging my flesh."

Captain Wang threw the document aside, half stood up and took the cigarette box back.

While taking a cigarette, he said, "First of all, Chen Jun, you don't have to think about it. Not to mention the door, there is no window. The other things may be negotiable."

"pat~"

After saying that, he lit a cigarette, leaned back in his chair, and looked at the railway opposite with an expressionless face.

"Hahaha."

With his trademark fake smile, Tielu deliberately changed the subject and said, "I thought about it on the way here. With your personality, Lao Wang, you will definitely do this.

We are not buying vegetables in the market, is there any point in bargaining?

Besides, we are a special forces unit, and everyone who can get in is a top soldier. Your precious ones may not even pass the first level."

"If you don't like it, then I'm relieved."

Captain Wang immediately followed up with another retort: ​​"There are so many troops in the army, and there are plenty of people you want. My place is small, so don't even think about it.

Our regiment is currently planning to form a combined battalion, and we are already very short of people. I can’t bear to spare even one, let alone a few.”

The approval document from the division to the 702nd Regiment was very clear, agreeing to cooperate in selecting three people for Battalion A.

Perhaps it was because only three people were selected and there was no mention of the need for Chen Jun, that three people would not have much impact on a group.

That's why the division did not interfere and cooperated with the railway to give the approval to the regiment.
