"Then what do you think?" the old man got serious and looked at Jiang Chen and said.

Jiang Chen saw the old man's serious expression and said slowly: "My thoughts are like this: with the development of the times, the progress of weapons and equipment, and the diversification of operational ideas and forms, our existing troop formation structure and command structure can no longer keep up with the needs of the new form. And we should also realize this from the rounds of battles in the past few years, so I think we have reached a stage where we must reform. ”

"Go on. The old man saw Jiang Chen paused and looked at him, and then commanded.

"Yes," Jiang Chen continued, "I think our future army should be a modern combat force, which not only needs a more advanced structure, but also needs advanced combat concepts and weapons. It's just an ordinary battalion of mine, if it takes to mobilize, how long does it take for a regiment and a division? In the future, the battlefield will be based on rapid sudden strikes and rapid penetration as the main trend, and there is no clear concept of the front and rear, through transport helicopters, tactical transport planes, and strategic transport planes, we have achieved comprehensive coverage of the near, medium and long range, and we are actually left with very little time to react. So my first suggestion is to set up a dedicated mobile rapid reaction unit to deal with the various crises that we face in the future. ”

"Rapid Reaction Mobile Force, what kind of unit is this?" everyone began to wonder.

Jiang Chen said with a smile when he saw everyone's puzzled expressions: "The rapid reaction force, as the name suggests, is a combat force that can respond to possible low- and medium-intensity conflicts and various missions in a very short time frame and dispatch to carry out tasks. Its main tasks are to intervene in adverse situations, rescue and rescue, stability maintenance tasks, conflict prevention and so on. ”

"Sounds interesting, you can tell us a few more about it. The old man took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

That's right. Jiang Chen introduced: "Because the reaction time of our troops is relatively slow, as is the case with infantry units, and even more so with armored units and other support support, no unit can quickly prepare and then enter battle or other tasks in a very short period of time. These troops are mobilized at a moment's notice, and the preparations required are very cumbersome. Even like moving home, I can't wait to bring all my troops and things with me in case of what is about to happen. That's true, but it's a bit too precautionary. Finally, when everything is ready to be completed and driven to the battlefield, I am afraid that the daylily will be cold at that time. Those people here are all from our army, and they are all my elders. So the kid said it bluntly, I hope everyone will not be surprised. ”

"What's the difference, if it's the surprise, we'll kill you long before you sabotage our drill, and let you stand here and talk. An old general joked with a smile.

"Alright, boy, we're not the kind of people who care. Tell me about your Rapid Reaction Mobile Unit, I'm very interested in that. Another old man said anxiously.

"yes, don't be verbose. Everyone said.

Good. Jiang Chen responded: "The rapid reaction mobile unit, what suddenly appears is the word 'fast', I have obtained the following summary by looking at a large number of foreign publications and analysis, I think it should have the characteristics of "rapid deployment, rapid support, rapid surprise attack, and rapid control of the enemy". As Sun Tzu said in "The Art of War: Military Struggle", "it is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as plundering as fire, and as immobile as a mountain." I think that such troops are exactly what our army is most in short supply of. Whether it is for military missions or for some major natural or other disasters and crises in our country and abroad. can play a huge role. ”

"Rapid deployment, rapid support, rapid surprise attack, rapid defeat of the enemy. The old man read these sixteen words word by word, and then his eyes lit up: "It's a good summary, you can see at a glance these points that our army is lacking now." From this point of view, you kid is not simple, if you don't come to the army, I promise to make you a general within ten years. ”

Jiang Chen complained in his heart. That's because you don't know that there is something called an encyclopedia, but this must not be said, so he smiled and said: "With you here, there are my elders, I won't make trouble." ”

"Hahaha. You. Continue, I'm interested in this. The old man turned to his secretary and said, "Record our conversation in detail, and I will sort it out myself when I get back." ”

"Yes. The secretary replied.

Jiang Chen saw that everyone was waiting for him to say the following, so he continued: "I think that this rapid reaction mobile force, it is actually basically the same function as our usual troops, but we have one more 'fast' than them. This unit does not mean that we can only form a rapid reaction mobile unit formed by light infantry, or we can form a rapid reaction mobile unit composed of heavy equipment or other equipment. It is well known that the less equipped the troops, the shorter the reaction time, because it has less to prepare. However, there are many equipment and complex structures for heavy equipment or other combat support and support, so its reaction time will be relatively slow. The reason why I am talking about this mobile rapid reaction unit is not that it has to sacrifice equipment to achieve rapid reaction capability, but that it will be developed and improved into a rapid reaction mobile unit at the grassroots level. For example, one of our tank regiments, it has to maneuver thousands of miles and then participate in battles. Previously we might have a week to prepare, and then a few days on the road before we arrived at the battlefield. And now we have optimized and reorganized this tank regiment to give it the ability to react quickly, which used to take more than a week to prepare and then march, but now after the improvement, we can prepare and complete it in an hour. Then go to the front line of operations in one day and devote yourself to the mission. ”

"It's impossible, it's impossible to complete the preparations in an hour, and then reach the combat area thousands of miles away in one day, which is simply a fantasy. A middle-aged general who had led the army said.

Jiang Chen looked at the middle-aged soldier and said with a smile: "How is it impossible, everything is possible." If this unit has been doing combat duty work, if this unit has been making a lot of preparations in advance for the future rapid response, and if this unit has done a lot of training work in this area in peacetime for the future rapid response, I think it is completely achievable. ”

The general still didn't believe it, but then Jiang Chen and a few people made a careful calculation with the general. But after careful calculation, the time Jiang Chen said before could actually be compressed a little more, and everyone in the conference room was calmed down at this moment. They didn't think about why they didn't pay attention to this matter in normal times. Jiang Chen replied with a smile, this is because you are thinking about fighting a big battle on the battlefield all the time. (To be continued.) )

PS: There was a heavy snowfall in Xi'an today, and the snowfall even reached 20 centimeters, and the weather was very cold. So because of some accidents, I only rushed out one chapter today, so please forgive me, and I'll make up for it if I have time.
