Chapter 229: Outline Formulation (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
In response to this issue, Gao Cheng actually did not want to discuss it at today's meeting. Just like the command and control system, to explain clearly how to conduct training, it must be a systematic explanation, otherwise a simple explanation will make the commanders and fighters of each company unable to obtain effective information, and even conflict with the current training model.
The 1st Battalion is currently an experimental unit, and its training model is based on the combat missions it will undertake in the future and the composition of its troops. Strengthening a relatively complete set of specialized detachments of the armed forces, that is, temporary units with the ability to independently carry out combat tasks, is the basis for the generation of the system's combat capability, and this will become increasingly prominent in future operations.
The composite + battalion tactical exercise is the highest form of tactical training for the detachment and the basic way to test and improve the overall combat capability of the detachment. This is the highlight of their battalion compared with the other troops, but it is also a difficult point.
Just like this exercise, its combat mode is large-scale pressing, which does not reflect the formation of troops, which is very unsynthesized.
Therefore, Gao Cheng pondered for a while and said: "In the future, as a basic combat unit, our first battalion must be equipped with as much as possible the combat forces of artillery, air defense, army aviation, engineers, anti-chemical warfare, and signal troops, as well as specialized support forces such as supply, repair, rescue, and transportation, according to the combat tasks and specific combat patterns that may be undertaken, and centering on the requirements of unit composition, as well as the combat forces of artillery, air defense, army aviation, engineers, chemical defense troops, and signal troops, as well as specialized support forces such as supply, repair, rescue, and transportation, and carry out combat grouping according to operations, support, and support, so as to form combat modules that are highly integrated, have complementary functions, and have relatively strong independent combat functions. ”
Gao Cheng talked about his training ideas and thought about how to form a scientific and effective training system. This is not something that he can accomplish alone, and he must consult with the commanders, fighters, and staff officers of the battalion before a document can be formed and finally implemented. What he is talking about now is only a programmatic document, that is, he has made a summary of the direction of future training.
"In view of the contradiction between the diversified organization of the combined battalion and the high requirements for organization and command, and the current small number of commanders at the battalion level and the weak command and control capability, the battalion commanders and the commanders of the strengthened detachments should organize the command structure, optimize the means of command, clarify the command relationship, and ensure that the command and organization meet the needs of actual combat." This is a clear instruction given by Gao Cheng in response to the inadequacy of the command personnel and command means of the composite battalion. The main purpose of troop regrouping is to effectively tap the command potential of all arms of the armed forces and enable the troops to display more powerful combat capability.
"Relying on the integrated command platform and the existing command information systems of all arms of the armed forces, we will adopt methods such as embedding advanced technology, attaching information units, and improving system software to break through the information "partitions" and "barriers" between various combat groups, realize real-time transmission and processing of information, and achieve the transformation of combat groups from bundled to integrated, ensure that the commanders of composite battalions carry out effective command and control over the specialties of all arms horizontally and the main weapon platforms vertically, and promote the coordination and consistency of the combat operations of operational, support, and support forces. ”
Finally, Gao Cheng emphasized the function of informatization construction of the army that he has been performing. As long as Mr. Gao Cheng completes the development of the system and finally loads the information unit, Gao Cheng believes that the informatization ability of the first battalion will definitely grow exponentially.
"Battalion commander, do these training models you are talking about conflict with our current training system?" This was another infantry company commander who raised a question in his mind. Because although Gao Cheng did not specifically describe the training subjects, if this set of training standards is implemented, they are not sure whether it will cause the consequences of a decrease in combat effectiveness.
This is the result of ideological solidification, and it may be that all the officers and men who make up a battalion are all outstanding talents in the military region, but there may still be a difference between their excellence and Gaocheng's requirements. After many years of cultivation in the army, they already have a set of their own model for the management of the army, and if they want to change it now, they must first change their thinking.
Gao Cheng was not at all surprised that they had asked this question, this kind of question would definitely be raised, and it must have been lingering in everyone's hearts. Is it that their current training mode cannot keep up with the times, is it that their combat effectiveness has not met the requirements of their superiors, and is it that after carrying out reforms, the troops will have a more powerful combat capability?
This question can and must be answered in the affirmative by Gao Cheng, yes.
Therefore, Gao Cheng said: "I have already explained just now that the formation of the first battalion is to adapt to the development of the new era, and I know the doubts in your hearts. I also know that some people still think that the formation of a composite battalion is a superfluous move, but please believe that the army will not reform for the sake of reform. It must be that the pace of the times has moved forward, and if we do not make changes, we will fall behind the times, and if we fall behind, we will be beaten, and I believe that everyone here knows this. ”
"Look at the new, talk about change, and seek survival, this is what the chief asked me before I came. This sentence not only requires us to be able to see the development of others in the development of the times, but also to learn from the advanced experience of the other party, change ourselves, and finally survive in this era. Maybe we're living in our comfort zone right now, and we're able to do the training we set out every day, but does that guarantee that we're always in a good position? Gao Cheng said in a solemn voice.
"Breaking the comfort zone, as soldiers, our primary purpose is not to preserve strength or live a stable life, our purpose is to constantly learn new skills and prepare for the complex international situation in the future." Although Gao Cheng's words only emphasized the importance of change, everyone present at the meeting showed strong confidence.
"Since everyone has doubts about this, let's take today as a time node to formulate and implement our new training system. Although we belong to the military region directly under the army, I don't think the chief will always leave us here. We certainly have the opportunity to participate in the military exercises every year, so we will judge them by the results of the military exercises. "Gao Cheng is not betting with his comrades, but wants them to see how advanced the new training system is compared to the previous training model.
Don't ask Gao Cheng why he can be sure that the combat effectiveness of the troops will be improved, this kind of question is the same as asking which of the sixth masters or the eighth master flies faster, one has just reached supersonic speed, and the other has a speed of Mach 2.2, and it is still necessary to compare.
Of course, this example may be a bit inappropriate. However, the combat mode of the composite battalion is definitely different from that of the individual troops. This is a condition given by the times, and the composite battalion is the smallest combat unit in future wars, and it can use multi-group tactics to conduct a small-scale campaign on the battlefield, but the current troops, even a regiment, cannot play such a role.
"Since today's meeting has been said here, it may be a waste of time. Originally, I wanted to wait for a while and wait for me to understand the training content of each company in detail before holding a training plan to formulate it, but sooner rather than later, let's work together today, and everyone has no problem. Of course, Gao Cheng will not be very assertive, and said to everyone in a consultative tone.
"No, it won't..."
"Great..."
"We must do what the chief instructs..."
Although Takashiro was very polite, everyone in the audience showed a state of obedience to the command. After all, it is the prerogative of the unit commanders to draw up the training plan of the troops, and although they have the right to arrange the training content of their own company, they must also make arrangements within the overall training program of the battalion headquarters. I have never heard of a company that has jumped out of the training plan of the battalion headquarters or the regimental headquarters and formulated its own training subjects.
"Okay, I see it's almost time for lunch, let's go to dinner first, and everyone will gather in this conference room at two o'clock in the afternoon to continue the meeting." After speaking, Gao Cheng motioned to Wang Wei to see if he still had anything to explain there.
After the response was not explained, Gao Cheng ended the meeting. After the meeting, all the battalion and company cadres withdrew from the conference room in turn, and only instructor Wang Wei followed Gao Cheng.
"Battalion commander, will the development of the training program be in a hurry. I understand the meaning of the battalion commander's meeting, and I also know the purpose of our unit. However, is it a bit reckless to make a training program in such a hurry? Wang Wei said worriedly, not that he felt that Gao Cheng was young and wanted to suppress him, but that he started from the level of the army, and felt that Gao Cheng had only arrived in the first battalion and had not yet had an in-depth understanding of the first battalion.
In such a hurry, he made the programmatic documents of the troops, and as an instructor, Takashiro's right-hand man in the first battalion, he felt that he needed to remind his partner.
"Don't worry, instructor. Although it was a bit of a rush, I had a systematic arrangement for the training of the synthetic battalion before entering the army, and in fact, the subjects of the training generally did not change much. If you want to say that the change is also a change in tactics and the content of the group, the fighters will not be wasted. Takashiro explained.
"That's good, I thought that the battalion commander was going to carry out a large-scale reform of the troops, although our troops do need you to carry out reforms, but I still want to reform through the spring breeze and drizzle, and the soldiers who move too much may also be affected." Wang Wei said.
"Hahaha, my Wang instructor. I'm also a soldier, so I won't be unaware of the depths of the mess, so don't worry. Although Gao Cheng was not very in favor of the spring breeze and drizzle, he thought that the instructor was also thinking about the troops, so he also explained his motives.
