Chapter 462: Army Fine-tuning (II)

Hu Wei pointed out that there is no need for special forces to exist, because the current combat firepower of the army is already very fierce, and it is completely capable of undertaking the task of attacking fortifications by itself. And the armies of Western countries in the current era are not enough to have too many people able to withstand such fierce firepower of Taiwan's army. Previously, the main task of the special forces was to tear holes on the battlefield and then let the troops in the rear pour in. The weapon used by the special forces is the Stern submachine gun, which is specially used to tear open the enemy's gaps. But now that the firepower of ordinary troops is fierce enough, their position is more awkward. The troops at the front no longer need them to tear open the gap, so naturally there is no need to exist. So what is the use of them keeping, this is obviously very embarrassing.

The reason why Hu Wei thinks so is because the current special forces are mainly used to tear gaps, and rarely are really used as special operations. In the current era, the thinking of special operations has not been truly developed, and the previous wars in Taiwan were actually the use of special forces to overcome difficulties and open the way for the rear troops. In fact, the real special forces are used as troops to harass and attack the enemy's weak points, or some special tasks, and are not such troops that tear gaps under the cover of front-line artillery fire.

So Hu Wei subconsciously thought that the special forces were used in this way, and he didn't realize where the special forces were really used. After all, Hu Wei was an officer in the late Qing Dynasty, and he was an officer in the Green Battalion before, so he couldn't quickly understand the new military knowledge. What's more, even the foreign devils in this era do not have special forces, they all use some so-called "death squads" to fight, which is actually very unprofessional. This kind of unit is simply not able to perfectly assume the responsibilities of special forces. So Hu Wei didn't have any experience in this area, which must have made him feel very depressed. In Hu Wei's heart. Special forces are actually a kind of death squad. Once you leave the frontal battlefield, it's useless.

"Actually, it is still necessary for the special forces to be preserved. However, the use of special forces must be adjusted in the future. In the future, the use of special forces can be changed to sneak attacks, or raids, cutting off supply lines. Special quests such as rescuing hostages. These tasks are characterized by high difficulty, high risk, etc., and they are specialized in performing such special tasks. And they will be able to take on tasks in a very complex environment. And they have to learn all kinds of skills, not only the use of all kinds of long guns and short guns, the use of all kinds of artillery, and even familiar not only with our own weapons, but also with the weapons of the enemy, so that they can pick up the enemy's weapons and use them when they have to do so. Even learn to drive, and later cars will be popularized in the army. At that time, it is especially important to be able to drive, whether it is to perform a mission or to retreat in time, it is necessary to be able to complete the task in time. ”

"We even have to have these special forces responsible for the operational environment in different places according to their own characteristics. For example, there are those who are responsible for fighting in the mountains and forests, and our special forces are needed in the South Sea rainforests in the south, who can be familiar with all kinds of animals and lack food at critical times. You can hunt and eat. Familiarize yourself with whether the various animals and plants are poisonous or not, and be able to survive and complete the mission. And sometimes the north has to be able to carry out tasks in the icebergs and snow. The desert Gobi in the West. It's all where they have to carry out their tasks. In short, we must perform our tasks well in all kinds of environments, so that we can be regarded as a qualified special forces. ”

Hearing Wang Guorui's statement, do you feel that these special forces are not abusing themselves? Because at present, everyone feels that this kind of special forces is too difficult to train, and there are so many things they have to learn, I am afraid that it will be very difficult to train. And something so complicated. Everyone doesn't know how to train, which makes it very complicated. And what is the use of training such complex troops? With such a complex army, the consumption will definitely be very large, how can they use it at that time?

None of these special forces have ever been used. None of them knew where to use these special forces. So they don't know how these special forces will be used, so they feel that this special forces are going to be very cheating.

"These special forces will use the best weapons, and will even be able to customize their own weapons, specifically for their weapons. And when they need it, they can help us do a lot of important tasks. As long as we use it well, it will be able to make our troops very useful. For example, sneak attack on the enemy's headquarters, or assassinate a certain enemy general, dignitary, etc. They learn a variety of skills that can be prepared to perform tasks. Wang Guorui said.

One of the most important abilities of the special forces is to assassinate the enemy's senior personnel, if you assassinate one of the enemy's generals, it may cause a large army to completely lose its brains, which will also cause chaos among the enemy. Or if you assassinate an enemy dignitary, and then support one of your own people, it is enough to change a country's attitude towards itself. Therefore, the special forces will be low-cost and high-efficiency, fully able to cooperate with political means to clean up the enemy, and can make the least effort to achieve the best effect, which still has a very huge advantage over ordinary troops.

This kind of assassination of the head of the enemy was later called "decapitation operation", once the leader is killed, the enemy's will to resist will be greatly reduced, so that the opponent's army or even the country can be forced to surrender.

But Hu Wei immediately asked: "Then such a soldier must be very difficult to train, right?" Moreover, I'm afraid that not everyone can act as such a special force, right? ”

"Yes, that's right. We will then conduct a second selection in these special forces, and those who do not pass the selection will be transferred to other units and cannot stay in the special forces. Only those who pass will be able to stay in the special forces and receive new training. However, I don't have hope for them, because their usual training is not actually the ability of special forces, but just the concentration of elite soldiers on the battlefield, which is still too far from the real special forces in my mind. As for us now, we can completely pass excellent training, the selection of capable personnel, and then we will be able to set up our special forces. Wang Guorui said.

These special forces must be re-selected, and the original criteria for selecting special forces, the selection criteria, and the standard subjects of training have not even reached one-tenth of the content of later generations. In addition to technical reasons, this is also related to the tasks they perform. In the past, this kind of troops, the training subjects were not very scientific, and they were all used by them as troops who tore gaps in the front, and they did not have the ability of the special forces of later generations. This time, we must select according to the standards of future generations, because in this way we can select really good seedlings and train real special forces, rather than those fancy troops. As for the future, as long as there is a perfect special forces selection mechanism, so that they can continuously select excellent seedlings, then their own special forces can gradually become an army.

As for the usefulness of special forces, it has become very obvious in later generations. In the wars after World War II, special forces were indispensable in almost every war. Especially in terms of counter-terrorism, it has an incomparable advantage. Don't look at the high cost of special forces training, but the tasks they undertake are strategic, as long as they can complete a task, then their costs will be earned. If there are no special forces, the manpower and material resources that need to be mobilized are very huge, and tens of thousands of ordinary troops need to be used to achieve the effect of special forces, and they may not even be professional. Therefore, special forces can save a lot of costs and make the war achieve strategic results. In later generations, countries have also paid more and more attention to the use of special forces, so that they can truly make their own stable troops. Without special forces, the future will definitely not work. It would be very beneficial for me to be able to prioritize training and exploring special forces.

"Everyone must think carefully about how to make good use of this special forces. In the future, the navy, land and air force will be the three major branches of the armed forces. However, the Marine Corps, special forces, and so on will become one of the two most important arms, so don't underestimate this special forces! This special forces will play a very important role, which is not at all imaginable by ordinary people. Next, let Tanya and Natasha train the special forces so that they can train them well. In this world, no one is better at special operations than Tanya and Natasha, and there is certainly nothing wrong with having them train. Wang Guorui said.

"Yes!" Everyone said together.

"Lord Wang, what should we do with these retired army weapons next? These decommissioned weapons are all wealth! If it is lost like this, it will definitely be a big loss. However, if it is sealed, it doesn't seem to be appropriate, so I ask you to think of a way to deal with it. Li Fusheng asked. (To be continued......)
