Chapter 171: Crisis Spread (13)
Wei Ze was able to inspect the military academy, which meant that he had returned to Nanjing. Qi Rui took advantage of the rest to go home to meet his father. got the news of his father's accurate home from his wife Qi Hongyi on the phone, and Qi Rui immediately ran to the bus stop and got into the car.
After the overpass was repaired, Qi Rui was surprised by the speed of the bus. No matter how wide the road is, it is limited for the city of Nanjing, which has a population of several million. Traffic lights are faced with hundreds of bicycles and pedestrians at each intersection during rush hour, and motor vehicles are a bit of a race against time.
Traffic jams have become the most common urban scenery in Nanjing, and the traffic police shouted at the top of their voices, but the people looked at the traffic police with unhappy expressions, or simply ignored and chose the way they thought they could cross the street as soon as possible. Some succeeded, while others created more congestion. Qi Rui fully understood the urban life of the traffic jam more than half a year ago.
After the overpass was repaired, that changed. Buses and motorized vehicles use viaducts to pass through intersections as much as possible, and no longer compete with bicycles and pedestrians for the right of priority to pass through intersections. Pedestrians and bicycles are smaller and more agile, and the overall traffic efficiency increases dramatically as the passage space increases. I thought it would be an hour and a half by car, but it only took 40 minutes to arrive.
Qi Rui had a whim and wanted to go to the transportation department for an internship. He had already set the direction of his thesis on truck-based rapid action, which would not have been possible if he had not even managed traffic. As soon as he entered the house, Qi Rui saw his father saying to the secretary: "I don't have time to meet those Comintern people, our policy is the same as before." You can eat, drink and entertain, and you can take them to see in China. But we will not pay for the actions of the Comintern. Relying on the mountains and mountains, relying on the rivers and rivers. When we had a revolution back then, who paid to support us? Since we can succeed, it shows that a revolution that does not rely on external help is not without the possibility of success. β
Listening to his father's words, Qi Rui suddenly had a sense of comical in his heart. When I hear this in other people's ears, the biggest feeling is probably perfunctory. But in the ears of Qi Rui, who had been educated by Wei Ze for more than 20 years, he only felt extremely familiar. Although it is not such an original word, Wei Ze always thought like this when he educated Qi Rui.
As long as Qi Rui's purpose is to achieve his goal by what he does, he goes to his father for help because he has no experience. No matter how naΓ―ve Qi Rui's solution was, Wei Ze would discuss it with Qi Rui very seriously. At most, Weeser is sometimes louder and less gentle. Even when he saw that Qi Rui couldn't understand it at all, Wei Ze took Qi Rui hand in hand. But Wei Ze always insisted on providing Qi Rui with a specific way to solve the problem.
If Qi Rui said, "Dad, I want anything!" Or, "What do I want, what do I want!" "More than 95% of the time it is rejected mercilessly. After more than 20 years of training in thought and action, Qi Rui gradually understood his father's concept as his problem-solving ability improved.
As soon as the Comintern heard it, it was a group of people under the banner of Uncle Ma, and from Wei Ze's words, it could be heard that these people probably said, "Give me revolutionary funds, and I can do anything." There is basically no chance that this kind of demand will be passed on Weese's side. Drawing a clear line between the beginning and the end is absurd in Weeser's philosophy. Qi Rui also gradually understood the ridiculousness of this approach, are there two identical leaves in the world?
After the secretary left, the family had dinner. Qi Rui briefly told his father about his military papers. The reason why it is simple is also the accumulation of experience. No matter how complicated the content Qi Rui felt, Wei Ze could easily figure it out theoretically. If the narrative is long, Weeser will say, "I don't have much time, I'll give you X more minutes." If you can't finish speaking, you have to end it. "So Qi Rui has been able to report to his father in a very brief way.
After listening to Qi Rui's narration for five minutes, Wei Ze put two pieces of paper on the desk, and a book stood up in the middle of the paper. "Battlefields have battlefield fog, you can only exist on your paper, and the same goes for enemies. Separated by many insurmountable walls, you don't know what's on the other person's paper, and the other person doesn't know what's on your paper. You have to rely on experience to guess. Rely on the ability accumulated in reality to deduce. You want this motorized transport to be carried out at a high depth, and in theory, trucks can do that. But once it is discovered by the enemy, it is very fragile to have to adopt a long snake formation transportation mode at the practical level. The mobility advantage of such transport also lacks a reconnaissance network that can keep up. I conclude that you hope that this can be used in field warfare, but you feel that there are many insurmountable difficulties in it. What is your opinion on my opinion? β
Qi Rui nodded hurriedly, "There are many problems with truck transportation, but I don't want this kind of transportation to be only used as a fixed-line transportation mode. I don't expect trucks to be able to charge, trucks to be able to march at high speeds, turn around and outflank, and so on, which is a very useful function. β
"That's a good idea, what you have to think about now is how to get past this barrier." Wei Ze's finger tapped the paper, and then moved diagonally upward, exceeding the height of the erected book, and then dotted on another piece of paper, "If you can reach this height, you can surpass the barrier, and the enemy's movements will be greatly transparent before your eyes." β
This truth is easy for soldiers to understand, and it is one thing to be easy to understand, but how can we transcend the thick fog of the battlefield and make the enemy's intelligence as transparent as possible in the eyes of the Liberation Army? If Qi Rui had a way, then he wouldn't have to run to his father for advice.
Qi Rui knew that his father's time was precious, and he could only continue under his father's reminder: "Father, you want me to stop being entangled in how to make the maneuver of the truck difficult for the enemy to master. Do you want me to start with the basics and know more about the enemy's movements? β
This is actually very contrary to Qi Rui's original intention, this solution can indeed solve the problem fundamentally, but the basic change is always the most difficult. A change in the basis implies a complete change in the pattern of the war as a whole. His father, Wei Ze, was a military revolutionary, established the General Staff, and established a system of party command of guns. All this has turned the Chinese military upside down. This change is more of a self-transformation, but it is far from being able to fundamentally change the pattern of warfare. Qi Rui doesn't think that he is stronger than his father, and what his father can't do, he can't do. Since there are no more advanced means to break through the fog of the battlefield, it can only strengthen the suddenness of the side.
"Father, I don't think the airship can completely break through the fog of the battlefield." Qi Rui has done a lot of homework, and many people feel that airships will definitely be the key to changing the war. Qi Rui thinks that that kind of flammable and explosive thing looks bluffing, but its effect is actually limited. He made his point, "Not to mention the limitations of airships. Once the enemy has mastered the characteristics of the airship, our dispatch of the airship is tantamount to giving the enemy a warning signal. β
Wei Ze was very happy after hearing this, and he leaned back in his chair in a relaxed mood, "If it is a smaller size, it will fly faster, higher, and farther." What about aircraft that can take off in more places? Bring a high-definition camera and take a lot of photos. After washing, compare whether the fog of the battlefield can be greatly reduced. At least the mastery of large-scale maneuvers of the enemy has increased. β
Qi Rui was stunned by Wei Ze's words, if such equipment really existed, the land war would be completely changed. Qi Rui never thought that trucking could be done as he pleased. In his ideal, once a force was quickly deployed deep enough into the enemy's depth, the situation on the battlefield would change dramatically. If such a flying machine existed, the truck brigade would avoid the enemy's heavy troops and penetrate like sharp knives. The depth of the battlefield will change from a few kilometers or a dozen kilometers to tens or hundreds of kilometers in an instant. An unequal grasp of the battlefield means that intelligence is on the weaker side.
"Can I use this assumption as a basis for my project?" Qi Rui didn't talk much and didn't ask questions. Get straight to the point.
"I think so." Weeser gave his son a clear answer.
Hearing such a clear answer, Qi Rui let out a long sigh. Under the thick fog of the battlefield, the risk of large-scale operations of truck units is too high. With the increased transparency of the battlefield, the truck brigade will also have various losses, but such losses are within the scope of control. Once there are predictable losses, specific tactics can move on to the discussion stage. Qi Rui's project has finally seen the real dawn.
After his problem was solved, Qi Rui was ready to retire. Wei Ze didn't mean to let his son go, he asked: "What does the army think about the retirement system?" β
"Uh......" Qi Rui was surprised at first, and he thought for a while before replying, "Everyone thinks retirement is good, and when the seniors retire, it's our turn." β
"Is there anything to give to your predecessors?" Weeser continued.
Thinking of the speeches of his comrades-in-arms, Qi Rui smiled a little awkwardly. Everyone hopes that the old guys will quickly give way, and these well-educated and good people don't rely on the old guys deeply. After considering the wording, Qi Rui replied: "Of course, some people who lack ability don't want to change too much. However, the more capable you are, the weaker this attitude becomes. β
After finishing speaking, Qi Rui hurriedly added, "Father, as far as I know, everyone doesn't want to see you retire. β
Wei Ze didn't know how to deal with his son's words, he was in good health and looked good now. Fifty-something doesn't look old. Some people believe that he is in his thirties. But Weese has big questions about the heir. Just because this problem hasn't erupted now doesn't mean it won't break out in the future. And the last thing Wei Ze wants to see at the moment is that someone uses this to stir up the situation.
Through his son's inquiry, Weeser learned some of the thoughts of the younger wave of the current military academy. This is also human nature, those who have the ability and no background hope to gain status through ability. Those who have a background but are incapable want to continue their power to maintain their status. My son's observations do tell us something, but only a few things.
"You go down first." Weeser ended the conversation.
