Chapter 8: The Age of Daddy
Liu Chengjia's first reaction was to scold. This is also too whimsical, a hairy boy in his early twenties actually wants to talk about "military reform" with him, the chief of operations of a large military region!
However, seeing Liu Weihong's solemn expression, Liu Chengjia swallowed back the scolding that came to his mouth.
This son has given him too many surprises and surprises today, so you might as well listen to his "high theory" again and see what he wants to do!
"Okay, you say!"
Liu Chengjia said calmly in his voice.
According to the usual practice, when Liu Chengjia talks about business with others at home, Lin Meiru wants to avoid it. Since the death of the great leader, "the lady does not interfere in politics" has almost become an unwritten rule of the wealthy families of the Beijing family. Lin Meiru was also deeply affected. But this time, Lin Meiru didn't get up. The son and Lao Tzu talking, it's not a business, right?
And Lin Meiru is indeed full of curiosity.
"Dad, this topic is a bit big, and I haven't completely thought about it, so I'll talk to you about some thoughts in my heart and see if I can serve as a reference......"
Liu Weihong said slowly, his tone was also very calm, without the slightest nervousness and panic. This bearing alone makes people look high.
Liu Chengjia was silent.
He was originally a taciturn surname, otherwise the old man would not have sent him to the army for development.
"The first is information construction. If I'm not mistaken, it was only a few years ago that our army completely eliminated mules and horses. And other major military powers in the world have achieved the mechanization of their armies as early as two decades ago. At present, they are all emphasizing the important role of informationization construction in the military. In future wars, we will not only emphasize air and sea supremacy, but will also further emphasize the right to control information. The United States came up with the Star Wars program in '83. Although, I don't think this plan is realistic, with the current level of technology, it is simply impossible to achieve such a seamless level of defense. Completely evading a nuclear strike by a hostile country is just a dream. Therefore, the main purpose of the Star Wars program was to create tension and drag down the Soviet Union with an endless arms race...... However, at least there is one thing that the Star Wars program is of great practical significance, that is, the construction of military informatization. This is crucial. ”
Liu Weihong said unhurriedly.
Discussing military reform with his own Lao Tzu is an integral part of the "huge plan" he has just made. Liu Weihong before his rebirth was not a military expert. However, the information more than 20 years ahead is enough for him to understand the trend of the general military trend in the entire world and provide some reference opinions, which is more than enough.
His Lao Tzu's position is too low, when the old man passed away, there was no way to hold up a piece of the sky, with the fall of the uncle Liu Chengsheng and his son, Liu Cheng's family was also unlucky, was transferred to an idle position, and retired depressed.
If it is an ordinary family, the chief of operations of a large military region at the division level is undoubtedly a very prestigious and prominent position, and a well-deserved high-ranking cadre. But in a wealthy family like Lao Liu's family, this position is really a bit insignificant. In addition to trying to find ways to let the uncle and eldest brother escape, it is also necessary to let his own Lao Tzu quickly progress to a higher position.
If you want to make a difference in officialdom, background is crucial.
If an ordinary person is reborn, even if the family declines, with the help of the information advantage of rebirth, there is a lot of chance to become a figure on the rich side. But Liu Weihong can't. If you want to change the depressed life of your previous life, you must first save this family from destruction. Once history repeats itself and he is on the blacklist, not to mention the despair of officialdom, it is also difficult to do business and live as a rich man.
The departments concerned will definitely take "special care" of him.
Born in such a wealthy family, the right in the hands is the only guarantee!
Without power, gods and horses are all floating clouds.
Liu Weihong thought it clearly.
Liu Chengjia obviously showed a shocked look on his face, stretched out his hand to stop Liu Weihong's "tirade", and said: "The Star Wars program is to drag down the Soviet Union? ”
This assertion was a common conclusion in later generations, but at the time, it was absolutely "earth-shattering".
Now, the USSR has not collapsed.
No one could have imagined the collapse of such an old power.
Because of our geographical relations, our country is doubly concerned about any changes in its northern neighbor.
"Yes. It was to drag down the USSR. Liu Weihong replied with certainty: "The productivity and economic strength of the United States are far superior to those of the Soviet Union. The balance of economic power between the two countries is far less balanced than the comparison of military power between the two countries. Under the premise that both sides possess weapons of mass destruction, it is absolutely impossible to conquer the Soviet Union by force. can only rely on strong economic strength to drag down this old rival. The planned economic system of the Soviet Union could not in any case support the huge expenditures of the arms race for a long time. ”
"Who told you about these things?"
Liu Chengjia asked suspiciously.
Liu Weihong smiled and said in a somewhat understated tone: "Dad, you can't help but underestimate your son too much." Why do you have to be taught such a thing? If you think about it yourself, you can analyze it. ”
Lin Meiru smiled bitterly: "Weihong, this thing, my mother can't analyze it." ”
Liu Weihong smiled: "Mom, it's different. You're a doctor, and your attention isn't on that. Moreover, there is also a difference between the way of thinking of a male surname and the way of thinking of a female surname. ”
"Ah, you even have research on this?"
Lin Meiru exclaimed.
"Mom, what's the research, I'm just talking about it casually. Besides, this is common sense. ”
Common sense in the twenty-first century.
Lin Meiru was so suffocated that she couldn't speak, but when she looked at her son, her eyes became shining, full of surprise.
"Dad, in two years, when the Soviet Union crosses, the Star Wars program will come to an end. Wait and see. ”
Liu Weihong said indifferently, as if talking about a fact that had already happened.
"Why do you keep saying that the Soviet Union is going to fall?"
Liu Chengjia asked staringly.
"That's for sure. After Gorbachev came to power, he carried out structural reform indiscriminately regardless of the actual situation, and even people like Yeltsin could tolerate it, which was basically destroying the foundation of the CPSU. Without a strong apparatus of political power and a stable social order, no reform will lead to good results, but will only lead to social unrest...... Let's not talk about this, this is a special topic...... Let's move on to the issue of military reform. Firepower, mobility, and command are the three major elements that constitute superiority in warfare. Firepower and maneuverability will be talked about later, but let's talk about the element of command first. The so-called command must be based on correct analysis, otherwise it will be blind command. Correct analysis and judgment come from accurate information. Without accurate sources of battlefield information, any command is blind. No matter how powerful the firepower and mobile ability of the troops are, they will not be able to win the war. Therefore, if we do not want to be at a disadvantage in future wars, we must attach importance to the informationization of the armed forces from now on. Dad, you're the Minister of Operations, and you should know this better than I do. ”
Liu Chengjia, who has always been majestic and steady, almost fainted completely, looked at his son, was speechless for a long time, and after a while, he picked up the teacup in front of him and drank several sips of tea in a row.
Liu Weihong hurriedly stood up, lifted the thermos, and filled Lao Tzu with tea.
He had already put the thermos where he was.
"This ...... Are these things really analyzed by yourself? ”
After a long time, Liu Chengjia asked uncertainly.
"Yes. I usually like to analyze these political and military situations. The automation and informationization of the military's command system is an inevitable trend. If we don't engage in computer construction, we will definitely be eliminated. However, we are also facing dangers in carrying out these automated information constructions. If we lag behind in computer technology, our command system will be unsafe and may be completely paralyzed at any time under the enemy's informationized attack. Even if you start now, you're already lagging behind. If we don't catch up, we will be left farther and farther away. We will see this very clearly in the next local war in which the United States participates. The US military's superiority in informationization will be the greatest advantage on the battlefield. ”
Liu Weihong said, remembering the war in Kuwait that would soon break out.
In that war, Iraq's so-called elite army armored units were completely vulnerable in the face of the United States' high-tech weapons and absolute power to control information, and they could not even assemble effectively, let alone contend with them. Often, as soon as the troops are assembled, US air strikes and long-range strikes follow one after another, and the Iraqi army becomes a live target. It's a war of extreme asymmetry.
And this war not only shocked Iraq, but also shocked the top leaders of the republic, which has always attached importance to the construction of traditional army forces. The republican [***] reform thus set off a **.
What Liu Weihong wants to do is to let him say these words a year or two in advance. Of course, it is not a general chat, but through formal channels, such as submitting a formal report to the superior or publishing a professional article in the newspaper, to attract the attention of the superior. After the Kuwaiti war really broke out, the two were compared, and Liu Chengjia's foresight came to the fore.
He himself is the chief of operations of the large military region, and he is quite valued by his superiors, and with such capital, coupled with the old man's prestige, he can reach a higher level in the army, which is a matter of Gu Jian.
It is said that the 21st century is an era of fighting for fathers.
And the fact is that in an official-based country, any time is an era of fighting for fathers!
The second generation of officials and the second generation of wealth are definitely not just products of the 21st century.
Liu Weihong knows this very clearly.
He had to convince Liu Chengjia to accept his advice. Fortunately, judging from the current situation, Liu Chengjia has been shocked by him, so it is not far from being completely persuaded by him.
Liu Weihong's confidence rose unprecedentedly high, and he continued to expound his theory of "military reform."
