； Pei Chengyi's expectation was the same, Yan Jingyu pondered again...

What Pei Chengyi didn't expect was. Yan Jingyu did not answer with silence as before, and gave a clear answer, asking Pei Chengyi to submit a detailed war preparation plan and war plan as soon as possible, and let Liu Xiaobin come back. Submit an assessment of the situation in the Middle East. Although Yan Jingyu still did not show his attitude. But being willing to let Pei Chengyi formulate war preparation plans and war plans, and let the Military Intelligence Bureau play a role, can be regarded as a remarkable progress. You know, as long as the MIA is involved, the problem is much simpler.

When Pei Chengyi left the Yuan Mansion, the sky was already bright.

Like Wang Yuanqing, Yan Jingyu also likes to deal with important affairs at night, and it seems that only in the quiet night can his energy be extraordinarily concentrated and he can think about some major issues.

For Pei, this is not a good thing. Although many years ago, he often went to the Yuan Mansion in the middle of the night to report to Wang Yuanqing on his work, but for the generals who had already split their years. I have long lost the energy I had back then, and I am not very suitable for working all night.

That's why Pei Chengyi decided to go home and sleep, and then go to Yuan Chenhao.

In any case, formulating war preparation plans and war plans is a matter for the War Department, and Pei Chengyi does not need to do it himself.

On the afternoon of the flight in August of the yo year, he went home and slept all morning, and Pei Chengyi, who had recuperated his spirits, went to the combat office and found Yuan Chenhao, who was using wargames to deduce and consume time.

"Preparedness?"

"A strategic plan, to be exact."

Yuan Chenhao frowned slightly, and said with a smile: "Old Pei, you look down on me too much."

Pei Chengyi heard what Yuan Chenhao meant. After all, the War Department is a military agency and can only draw up war plans, and "has no right to meddle in national strategic plans." Smiling, Pei Chengyi said: "Yuan asked me to deal with this matter, you also know that the real problem is not whether there is a plan, but whether there is a way to implement the plan" I have to focus on this. In any case, this is a war-related plan" is more related to the final success or failure, so I want you to be in charge of the specific work, and I will let Dongfang Wen assist you. ”

"Well, I don't have a choice

Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "This is not a multiple-choice question, but a mandatory question." ”

Yuan Chenhao sighed and said, "Since that's the case, I have a request. ”

"Tell me, I knew you were going to make a request

"It's not too much to ask. I need to be given the right to transfer personnel from the General Staff. ”

Pei Chengyi's brows jumped a few times. There was no rush to speak. Yuan Banghao's meaning was very clear, he wanted to take this opportunity to become the number one person in the General Staff.

As we all know, after the general election, with Lin Xiaolei's retirement, Pei Chengyi became the number one general of the republic. Against this background, the Ministry of Defense "co-opted" the General Staff. Although the chief of the General Staff has been retained and is still under the direct leadership of the General Staff, under the influence of Pei Chengyi, the post of chief of the General Staff has been virtually non-existent since the beginning of the Ye Dynasty, and on the contrary, the chiefs of several departments under the General Staff have become powerful figures in the General Staff because they are directly responsible to the Minister of National Defense. Because the General Staff has long lost its personnel power. Therefore, the personnel department is basically elevated, and only the operations department and the logistics department have influence. Yuan Chenhao is the chief of the operations department, and the director of the logistics department is Su Jinhui, who commanded the southern front in the Middle East war. Although in the eyes of many people, the logistics department of the General Staff and the logistics equipment department of the Ministry of Defense overlap and their powers are definitely limited, but the logistics equipment department of the Ministry of Defense is mainly oriented to weapons and equipment suppliers, while the logistics department of the General Staff is mainly oriented to the army, so the logistics office still has great influence. What's more. On the issue of the General Staff, Pei Chengyi did not unconditionally support Yuan Chenhao, so Yuan Chenhao and Su Jinhui became evenly matched opponents.

Seeing Pei Chengyi's expression change. Yuan Chenhao changed his words and said: "This kind of large-scale strategic plan involves more than just operational issues. I can't say anything about national policy, I'm only responsible for issues related to the military. ”

Yuan Chenhao said it to this point. Pei Chengyi is not good at continuing to avoid it.

"I understand what you mean, I'll consider it." Pei Chengyi glanced at his watch and said, "You arrange the work related to the war department first, and I will talk to Su Jinhui." ”

"Then I'll give you a brief report as soon as possible

Pei Chengyi nodded and didn't ramble again. got up and said goodbye to Yuan Chenhao. After leaving the combat office, Pei Chengyi did not leave the General Staff in a hurry, but went to the logistics office, which was only separated by a garden.

In front of Su Jinhui, Pei Chengyi was not so polite.

It's not that Pei Chengyi looks up to Su Jinhui more, but Su Jinhui doesn't have the same ambition as Yuan Chenhao. To be precise, it is the years that do not forgive. For Su Jinhui, who is close to the blade, although according to the regulations, a first-class general can serve until the age of stone. The first-level generals in office can serve as long as their physical conditions allow, but Su Jinhui's physical condition is not ideal, and he is tired of the internal strife in the army, so he has long been with the idea of retiring. It can even be said that if it weren't for Pei Chengyi's retention, Su Jinhui would not have served as the director of the logistics department at all. According to the current situation, by Kunnian, even if his physical condition allows, Su Jinhui will retire.

Overall, Su Jinhui is not an ambitious general.

Although many of the new soil on this site has been Ligu for: if you talk about Shan, please read it half-time! Eighty-four thinks. Su Jinhui was not able to become the chief of the General Staff. Not being able to save the army is a thug to cut a greater achievement, which is equivalent to wasting a general's talent, but from Su Jinhui's standpoint, it is not an achievement to be able to retire after the blade year with the greatest achievement that a soldier can achieve, and go home to enjoy the joy of family?

It is precisely like this, in front of Su Jinhui, Pei Chengyi is much more direct.

The problem is that for Yuan Chenhao, it is not an easy task to formulate a perfect war preparation plan.

The point is, this is the "war readiness plan thug." The new address of this site has been changed to: Talk about the fetus o waki, please read in vain!

Compared with war plans, war readiness plans pay more attention to the impact of "non-military factors" on the war, the so-called "non-military factors." It specifically refers to those social factors that can affect the course of the war and even determine the outcome of the war, such as economic conditions, industrial strength, public opinion, cultural factors, and so on. Although Yuan Chenhao had ample opportunities to come into contact with "non-military factors" and even need to replace government officials in handling foreign-related incidents at some times during his tenure as commander of the theater of operations, as chief of the Operations Division of the General Staff Headquarters, Yuan Chenhao had no authority to meddle in administrative affairs. More importantly, working in China, Yuan Chenhao must pay attention to the influence, and not do as he pleases like in the theater command. In this way, when formulating a plan for war preparations, Yuan Chenhao will receive a lot.

It can be said that this is the fundamental origin of why Yuan Chenhao asked for "absolute rights".

After Pei Chengyi left, Yuan Chenhao convened the main staff officers of the operations department, held a brief meeting, introduced the relevant situation, and asked the staff officers to be mentally prepared for long-term overtime.

In fact, Yuan Chenhao began to work overtime that night.

Because he did not grasp the situation in other aspects, Yuan Chenhao could only talk about military issues. In fact, regardless of whether it is a plan to prepare for war or not, as long as it is related to war, military issues must be considered first.

For the Republic, the Year of the Otter Fighter in the Middle East is definitely the worst war fought since 2 shaved cakes.

In the words of some of the Republic's news media, this was the first war in which the Republic had not been able to achieve complete victory since the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam at the end of the century, and it was also the worst war that the Republic fought in the century. Although the vast majority of the citizens of the Republic accepted this result, they did not believe that the unfavorable results were directly related to the Republican ** team, but believed the propaganda of the official news media of the Republic. I think it has a lot to do with the situation on the battlefield and the international situation, but for the republican team, an unsatisfactory war is enough for everyone to reflect, and it is enough for the leaders of the republic to think deeply about national defense construction.

And that's exactly what happened.

Although in the eyes of many people, Gu Weimin is a very simple leader, and he is a catty. Leaders who do not attach so much importance to national defense construction, but no one can deny that during the entire period of his administration, Gu Weimin did not drastically reduce national defense spending, especially during his second term of office, the average annual growth rate of national defense spending exceeded the Yuanqing Yuanqing rule, basically returned to the level of Wang Yuanqing's administration, and exceeded the growth rate of the republic's gross national product.

This shows how much of an impact the war in the Middle East had on the top of the republic.

The direct impact of the war in the Middle East was to change the direction of the Republic's national defense construction.

As everyone knows, before the Middle East War, under the influence of the third military reform, the Republic had been pursuing a policy of strategic contraction, and the national defense forces as a whole had shrunk, and only the Celestial Army had made great progress. Before the Middle East War, the strength of the republican ** team fell to about 10,000 fighters, the lowest since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Although no one links the outcome of the Middle East war with the third military reform, because without the third military reform, with the strategic projection capability of the republican ** team, not to mention the ability to send a full eight combat units to the battlefield thousands of kilometers away to carry out combat missions, it is a question whether the pre-war deployment can be completed before the US military, and it is impossible to challenge the US military hegemony in the Middle East. There was a negative impact on the military power of the republic. It is undeniable that this understanding is biased and does not recognize the great significance of the third military reform. If it were not for the third military reform, which forged a strong military force, it would have been impossible for the republic to support a pro-China regime in the Kurdistan region, let alone change the strategic pattern of the Middle East region through a large-scale war. It is important and, again, it cannot be denied that the third military reform is far less than imagined. In other words, due to the change of government, the third military reform did not achieve all the objectives set out in advance.

The biggest problem is not here, but that Gu Weimin does not have the courage to carry out military reform.

In the final analysis, the Middle East war has little to do with Gu Weimin, and he is not a profiteer, so Gu Weimin's benefits from this war are very limited. According to some "China experts" in Western countries, during the general election in Likou year, Ye Zhisheng dared to challenge because Gu Weimin did not have the absolute support of the army. It can be seen from this that Gu Weimin's relationship with the armed forces is not close, and he has neither the reason nor the ability to carry out military reform on a large scale.

It can be said that this political tendency of Gu Weimin is very important to the republic

Fortunately, shortly after the Middle East war, Pei Chengyi became Minister of National Defense, and Lin Xiaolei also hoped to promote the construction of the Navy by promoting national defense construction, so since the beginning of the Metallurgical Year, the Republic's national defense modernization construction has finally been on the right track under the joint promotion of the Minister of Defense and the Chief of General Staff.

It was from this time on. It is only then that the national defense construction of the republic has improved.

From this catty. From an angle, Pei Chengyi is called the "reinvenator" of the republican ** team. Not an exaggeration at all. Although in the electric year to four only. The republican forces are in a "recovery period." "The main thing is to eliminate the impact of the Middle East war and domestic modernization on national defense construction and ensure that national defense construction can be carried out normally. More importantly, Pei Chengyi straightened out the relationship between the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff during this year, laying the foundation for the long-term development of national defense construction. No one can deny it. Pei Chengyi also did a very important thing in this clam room, that is, he formulated a long-term exhibition plan that lasted for a long time and was detailed to various branches of the military

With Bae Chengyi becoming the deputy prime minister of security in Yenian, the country's national defense construction has finally entered the fast lane.

Of course, Pei Chengyi's special place in the central government of the republic must be considered here.

In the year of Likou to the year of Ye. Because Pei Chengyi did not fully state his political position, Gu Weimin did not dare to do anything to this active army general whose influence was no less than Lin Xiaolei, and even had to take care of Pei Chengyi's feelings at some times. After the New Year, because Yan Jingyu did not have any military merits, and inherited the alliance between Wang Yuanqing and the Shaozhuang faction, Pei Chengyi's voice was not only weakened because he lost his use value, but was strengthened a lot, and his appointment as the deputy prime minister of security is a direct embodiment.

Anyway, after the stock year. Pei Chengyi turned from an army commander to an army builder.

Facts have proved that Pei Chengyi is even better in the position of "builder" than in the position of "commander".

This kind of talent is golden. Not only did others admire, but even Yuan Chenhao sighed to himself.

It is the manifestation of this east. Let Yuan Chenhao realize that when he is connected with Pei Chengyi, he is not just the heat of military command. as well as the ability to grasp the overall strategic situation, as well as political talent.

It is precisely because of this that after returning to the General Staff, Yuan Chenhao is much more honest than before.

To be precise, it is to start from the basics in a down-to-earth manner.

After changing his attitude, Yuan Chenhao soon gained more room to show in the General Staff. The four, who can be transferred from the director of the logistics department to the head of the operations department, in addition to having an extraordinary relationship with Pei Chengyi, is also related to Yuan Chenhao's performance in the General Staff.

There is no doubt that this is a very critical personnel transfer.

As mentioned earlier, the Chief of Operations is basically the number one person in the General Staff.

Back in the mad years, of course. That is, when he was the chief of the logistics department of the General Staff, Yuan Chenhao participated in the modernization of the republican ** team, and borrowed the identity of the director of the logistics department to participate in the development and procurement of all weapons and equipment exhibition projects of the republican ** team after the Middle East war. After being transferred to the post of chief of the operations department, Yuan Chenhao began to integrate the resources of the operations department based on his work experience in the theater command and logistics department, and the first thing he did was to focus on the "world war." All the relevant operational plans were combined to form more than a dozen relatively perfect war plans. Because several war plans integrated by him were highly valued by Yuan, in just 2 years, Yuan Chenhao not only became the number one person in the General Staff, but also was likely to become the second army general to enter the decision-making level of the republic.

In any case, Yuan Chenhao is very aware of the current situation of the country's national defense forces.

It is precisely in this way that Pei Chengyi will think of him at the first time and give him the most important task.

Although by the time of the concave year. No one thinks that Yuan Chenhao is the second Pei Chengyi. Because the difference between the two is too obvious. In the words of Al Jazeera's Aladdin, who interviewed Pei Chengyi and Yuan Chenhao alone. Pei Chengyi is a majestic commander, while Yuan Chenhao is a shrewd and capable leader. This evaluation is enough to see the difference between the two, and it is enough to distinguish the two. In fact, after the Indian War, Yuan Chenhao was trying his best to get rid of Pei Chengyi's influence, hoping to become a real military commander, and he was also very lucky, he became the commander of the South Asian Theater before he was even old, and he was the youngest commander in the history of the theater and the youngest commander of the theater in peacetime. More importantly, Yuan Chenhao has since gained independent exhibition space, and finally got rid of Pei Chengyi's influence and became a well-known general in the Republic and even in the world. But no one can deny that Yuan Chenhao still has a lot of Pei Chengyi's shadow, especially in the face of major affairs, Yuan Chenhao and Pei Chengyi are very similar. Of course, there are also people who believe that the style of being decisive can be seen in any outstanding soldier, and it is not a characteristic of a certain person.

Anyway, Yuan Chenhao is such a decisive soldier.
