As chief of the General Staff, Qiu Baoren also clearly felt that the future war would definitely be a three-dimensional war. Because the mode of this war is almost from the sea to the road to the sky, almost from three levels of strikes, so that the enemy is attacked from three directions, and then it is sure to get good results. In the future, the importance of officers will definitely become more and more important, there is no doubt about this. And this makes Qiu Baoren feel a huge pressure, because if the sea, land and air force fight the enemy together in the future, then these officers of a single branch will definitely face a huge pressure.

In the past, as a soldier, you only need to learn the combat of one branch of the army, either the navy or the army. And now there is an air force to emerge, and the air force is fighting in the sky, so it must be able to attack and bomb the ground, and then go further and can use all kinds of weapons to fight. And there must be a lot of pressure in such a situation, especially those officers who should know when to bomb and when to strike. And the timing of this air strike and sea strike is also very important. If it's early, then maybe the enemy hasn't arrived at the battlefield yet, and if it's late, maybe the enemy has already withdrawn. And such commanders must not only be familiar with the operational capabilities of their own arms and arms, but also learn the abilities of various other arms, which is enough for them to feel a lot of pressure.

"That's right, the future will be more and more demanding of officers. The war of the future must be an attack on the enemy from many sides, not only from the sea and land, but also from the sky. And I am afraid that in the future, it will have to expand to many larger aspects, which are also necessary for future officers to learn, and if they miss these, I am afraid that they will also have a lot of problems. And this joint training. I suggest that the officers must begin to study and discuss how to carry out all-round three-dimensional strikes on land, sea and air. ”

"We will set up a joint teaching and research department in our war college, which will be specially responsible for teaching officers and men of other branches of the armed forces to conduct joint training together, and then we can familiarize them with the training of the joint forces, so that they will not have to put their combat capability in their own arms and services, so that they can properly study other branches of the armed forces, so that they can truly master them. Then, step by step, we will adapt to the needs of future wars. ”

But Qiu Baoren replied: "Your Majesty, is this too early?" Our aircraft have not yet been able to have real combat capabilities, and now they are established? ”

"Of course, one of my opinions is that it's better to let people wait for equipment than let equipment wait for people. If you don't even have the slightest preparation for the equipment once it comes, you're going to be unlucky. So let them prepare, and then you can learn all these things for me as soon as possible, so that they can learn more about joint operations step by step. When the time comes, once that day comes. Everyone is just clinging to each other, and it must be over. Therefore, we should learn these capabilities of joint operations and three-dimensional operations as soon as possible. The mainstream of future operations must be the air-ground coordination and sea-air coordination mode of operation, and only in this way can we make our troops truly strong and our armed forces truly meet the needs of this future war. Wang Guorui said.

In this era, no one is more familiar with the future military development trend than Wang Guorui, a traverser. In particular, the future trend of military development is to adopt the coordination of multiple services and arms of the navy, land and air force, and then in this way can the enemy be defeated more effectively. Then you can reduce your own casualties more effectively. In the future, joint operations will be the absolute mainstream, so of course they cannot be foolish and not study, because if they do not study, the future will definitely lag behind the times. Of course, it is not enough to lag behind other countries, because at present, only Wang Guorui has developed an aircraft that can be practical, and other countries do not have this aircraft at all. I'm afraid it will be a few years before they want to develop an airplane? If there is no accumulation of several years, I am afraid that it will be impossible to develop an aircraft that can have real combat functions.

Of course, although Wang Guorui is ahead, he never minds that he can lead more. In the study of military equipment and tactics, it is not about driving on the road. I'd rather stop for three minutes than grab a second. And when it comes to military research and military tactics development, every second counts, and not a second is delayed. Being able to lead a little is a little bit, and sometimes this lead is the last straw that can crush the opponent, and it can make him completely collapse. Therefore, it is better to study and discuss it earlier, so that you can really use it as the foundation for development and cultivate talents.

In the case of not having sufficient weapons and equipment, our party will first train personnel with great foresight, so that once the equipment comes, it can be used almost immediately. Even if you can't use it right away, it's sure that you can train a little to become an army. Only if the training is completed as soon as possible, that is the real maximum damage to the enemy. Therefore, this situation of cultivating talents first and then developing weapons is also very important, so that they can have a greater role in the future.

"Next, your army and navy will send people to learn how to fly this aircraft in the future, and let them learn aviation technology, so that you can form army aviation and naval aviation in the future!" Wang Guorui said.

Wang Guorui did not intend to give the Air Force the status of an independent service from the beginning, because the air forces of all countries in the world can only truly become an independent branch of the armed forces after embodying their own value. The British Air Force Command was established after World War I, and the United States Air Force became an independent branch of the armed forces only after World War II. The same is true of Japan, which had no independent air force command at all during World War II, only the army aviation unit and the naval aviation unit, which were all attached to the navy and air force.

Of course, there are benefits to doing so, especially in the early days. In the early days, the status of the air force was not high, and the air force was mainly used to reconnoiter the enemy and cooperate with the army offensive. Later, however, the air force's strike capability became more and more powerful, and the air force's combat capability was also reflected, and their lethality was no less than that of the army and navy, and they were fully qualified to become an independent combat system. In this way, they can be said to have their own and become a real branch of the military. If each branch of the military wants to be qualified for its own branch of the armed forces, it must be able to have its own independent strike capability, an independent and perfect service system, and its lethality is no less than that of other branches of the military, so that it can be qualified to be independent.

If the time comes for the Air Force to become independent, then I am afraid that the management of the Air Force will be convenient at that time, but once it is on the battlefield, the Air Force will not be able to fight independently, and then everything will depend on cooperating with the Army and Navy to fight. At that time, when the army and navy hope for the support of the air force, at that time, it will have to turn over many departments to be able to obtain support, and such a command system will definitely be problematic. When the time comes, the Air Force will not be able to effectively cooperate with the army and navy in combat, so they will definitely be in trouble.

The Air Force is not yet capable of fighting independently, so it is definitely not possible to let him have the status of an independent branch of the military. At present, let him be scattered in the army and navy, and when the time is ripe in the future, he will be truly independent and become an independent army. As for how they can develop, it depends on their own, let them themselves manifest their abilities on the battlefield, and only when they develop aviation weapons in the future can they truly give full play to their strength, let them gain the real attention of the army and navy, and obtain a qualification to treat them equally.

Status is earned by oneself, whether it is a country, an individual, or even a certain branch of the armed forces. If you don't have enough strength, then you don't want to stand on your own. At the beginning, the navy army also cooperated with the army, but later developed into ocean-going operations, and reflected sufficient combat effectiveness, coupled with the needs of overseas colonies, so that they had the same status as the army. Therefore, the arms and services only exist with the needs of war, and the needs are the market, and if this "market" is gone, it will also be eliminated.

"We're going to have a dedicated flight academy and then a dedicated training for pilots. In this way, we can let them learn enough flying skills, and then let them learn to fly well, so that they can really learn to fly again in the future. Wang Guorui said.

However, Fu Tiandi immediately said: "Your Majesty, no! Our planes are all made in the laboratory, and we can't meet the training needs of students in a short period of time! ”

"It doesn't matter, I have a way to get a lot of planes, you don't have to worry!" Wang Guorui said.

Because Wang Guorui has just heard the unlocking order from the Air Force Command, it means that they have already unlocked the Air Force Command, so that they can also build a large number of aircraft. And this aircraft is the current aircraft with a very reluctant combat effect. Although it was possible to build an experimental aircraft before, the Air Force Command was not able to unlock it at that time. Because those planes have no actual combat capability, they cannot fight at all, and the red alert system will never admit it.

But now this plane is barely strong and has a certain actual combat capability, although this actual combat capability is terribly weak, once it arrives on the battlefield, it will also be the effect of seeing the light and dying. An airplane that flies at an altitude of only a few tens of meters and stays in the air for more than ten minutes can only throw grenades to kill the enemy. When the time comes, people with a light machine gun can knock you down, and you will definitely die by seeing the light.

However, it can be used to train pilots, and it is enough to be the first batch of pilots. (To be continued.) )
