Chapter 625: How Long Have You Been Prepared?
Like the soldiers of the second battalion at the beginning, when these newcomers were asked by the soldiers sent by Shen Yun to change those tedious and redundant actions, they were very incomprehensible in their hearts.
As chief of staff, Xia Rui naturally had to carefully observe the training situation during training. He could intuitively feel the emotions of the officers and men about changing the habits they had already formed.
But Xia Rui didn't go back to Shen Yun to discuss because of this.
He wanted to hear how the soldiers of the Second Battalion explained why they had made these changes.
It just so happened that the people of the electronic countermeasures detachment asked such a question.
As technical personnel, the members of this detachment generally have relatively high military ranks, seven of the eleven are non-commissioned officers, and five are lieutenants.
It just so happened that Zou Dalu was their instructor.
Zou Dalu's honest appearance made him particularly vulnerable to the questioning of these officers, and he originally thought that Zou Dalu would say some official clichΓ©s to fool them, but the answers they got made these officers blush.
"Our battalion commander said that in the past, those superfluous actions of relying on his feet and raising his elbows to salute were all tricks to fool the commander with his own ability."
"The things written in the "Regulations" are the most effective after repeated verification by countless predecessors, and if you want to make changes in these contents, you must make it clear what the practical significance of such changes is."
"Our second battalion, no, the synthetic battalion, if we want to be the sharp knife in the leader's hand, we can't tolerate these deceptive things."
I don't know how these officers of the electronic countermeasures detachment feel, Xia Rui's heart was first hit by a huge shock.
Formalism has a wide presence in the army, and Xia Rui's old army has the same problem. As a chief of staff with a somewhat stubborn personality, sometimes I am really disgusted by these superficial articles.
Xia Rui was suddenly full of respect for his former subordinate. Not everyone has the courage to do this kind of thing, as Zou Dalu said, only by cultivating strong combat effectiveness will they ignore these fancy things.
The reason why the 2nd Battalion was able to complete these changes in a short period of time was entirely because the officers began to deliberately guide them after they had received training before.
Naturally, these newly arrived officers and men did not have such convenience, so after half a day of training, these simple minor problems could not be changed.
And the commanders of the two new companies, as well as the captains of several detachments, were already a little panicked at this time.
After watching the news collectively at night, the officers who came to the training ground put forward their opinions to Shen Yun.
"Battalion commander, the fighters have just arrived here, and they are still in the process of accepting a new unit and a new environment. These problems, which are prevalent in us, are precisely the marks of our respective old units. β
"If you let the big guy force the change like this, the fighters will easily resist."
Chi Haoming, the commander of the engineer company, said to Shen Yun very sincerely: "In the morning, the instructors said the reasons why they had to change, and I also admitted that these are indeed not good habits, but if you want to change, you do need a process. β
Shen Yun is not an unreasonable person.
He was very clear about Chi Haoming's reaction, but that didn't mean he had to compromise on this matter.
"Do you know how long I've been expecting to fix their stinky problems?"
Shen Yun stretched out two fingers: "Two weeks." β
Two weeks, just to let everyone forget the accumulated habits of the past and reshape the normative behavior, I have to say that it is a bit hasty. But the time given by Shen Yun was so short.
"The feelings of the old army are not maintained by these bad things, and if they are, then it means that your great names that I have heard of before are mixed up with this kind of thing. If any of you are unwilling or unable to change within this time, then I regret to tell you that even if you are punished, I must let you go back. β
"The only spirit that the synthetic battalion emphasizes is unlimited loyalty to the party and the people; The only goal to chase is to maximize combat effectiveness; The only relationship to be maintained is absolute trust in comrades-in-arms. β
"The affection for the old troops, that needs to be supported by victory after victory. There is no leader who likes his own soldiers to pat their chests after defeat and say that they are teaching his soldiers. Even if it was once. β
Chi Haoming lowered his head in shame.
He had no idea that he would receive such an answer.
After the harsh words were finished, Shen Yun finally softened: "Starting tomorrow, the company commander will rotate to follow the squad and platoon training, and during the recess, do more ideological work for the soldiers." β
Speaking of which, Shen Yun launched Su Enyang.
"They were also emotional last year when the armoured company first started these trainings. And the mood is only higher than it is now. However, since that time, the instructors have gone deep into the grassroots level, training and chatting with the soldiers, and in the end they have made the soldiers realize the importance of changing their habits. β
"How to do ideological work, you should consult the instructor. If I need to cooperate, I don't mind being a villain again. β
was praised by his partner like this, Su Enyang really didn't know what to say.
The most important problem was solved by Shen Yun in a few words, and the training of officers officially began.
In the physical training stage, Shen Yun still planned to use the pacesetters of the original second battalion as instructors for training, so these officers did not have to suffer as much as the officers of the previous second battalion.
At this time, their main job is to train and learn in terms of tactics and coordination.
Shen Yun's plan was made by one person, if it was implemented according to the plan, the expected goal would definitely be achieved, but after such a big battle, Shen Yun himself was a little dissatisfied with only this step.
When a copy of the complete version of the plan for the formation of the synthetic battalion was distributed to these officers on the scene, Shen Yun said very directly:
"You can go back and read the previous content for yourself, and now let's focus on page 22 for discussion."
At the beginning of this page that Shen Yun said, it began to be the content of multi-arm collaborative training, and when everyone turned to this page and read it carefully, they finally realized that the lieutenant colonel who talked eloquently was definitely a hidden master.
As a battalion commander of an armored battalion, the content of multi-service training is the same as that of a professional staff officer.
What is certain is that Shen Yun's plan is definitely not a pat on the head. Such a precise plan cannot be made without long-term thinking and summarization.
Shangguan Mingling couldn't help but ask at this time: "Battalion commander, how long have you been preparing for this plan?" β8)
