Three days later, I came out of the Jingxi Hotel with Commander Zhang.

There was no doubt that there were many discussions on various issues over and over again for three days, but like all the meetings, there were people with different points of view, and in the end we were not able to reach a consensus.

In fact, this is not surprising, because this is a question that has a bearing on the military strategic direction of the entire country, and it must be carefully and repeatedly demonstrated. The reason is simple: the question of strategic direction is so important that if we get it wrong, we risk wasting years or even decades of a country's time.

At this time, China has lost at the starting line, and now is the time to catch up, so there is no time to waste even a little time.

"The point you made at the meeting was very good!" On the jeep returning to the base, Commander Zhang said: "At first, I thought you would be as anxious as them to develop this and that person's ideas, but it turns out that your ideas are much more mature than I imagined. ”

I couldn't help but smile bitterly...... This is what I can learn from my trip to the Falklands, and what I know is only the experience I have in modern times and it has been proven by history.

"Especially when it comes to automobile-mobile anti-ship missiles!" Commander Zhang said: "This idea was not thought of by any of us before, and although it has not yet been decided, it has been recorded as an important topic." In addition, there is the fact that the navy you mentioned should be dominated by submarines for the time being...... This idea really surprised everyone! ”

Of course, it is normal for cadres to be surprised, because when it comes to the navy, everyone's eyes are often focused on large-tonnage warships and aircraft carriers. And not many people will care about submarines.

But the current development of our army obviously cannot be like this.

The reason is obvious. At this time, our army's navy and air force were strictly backward. The Air Force does not even have many fighters capable of fighting at night, let alone fighting enemy fighters in the sky with air-to-air missiles. The navy is similar, and it is far behind other countries.

On such a basis, it is obviously unrealistic to pursue advanced warships or even aircraft carriers excessively.

But submarines are different, and the reason is that they are underwater. Anti-submarine warfare is also very difficult, and this is undoubtedly the best choice for our country, which has to take a defensive position in the navy and air force at present.

"There's something else I want to tell you!" Then Commander Zhang said: "The artillery sighting radar we purchased from the British has been delivered, and there are two in total. ”

"Huh? So fast? "I couldn't help but be surprised when I heard this, but I thought about it. My request for a gun-sighting radar was made back in the Falklands, and it's been twenty days since now, so it's not surprising that it will be delivered now.

"What do you think?" Commander Zhang asked.

"What's the idea?"

"What to do with these two gunsight radars!"

"Oh!" Without thinking, I replied: "What other ideas can I have, let the military industry disassemble and imitate it!" ”

"You don't want to put it to the test on the battlefield?" Commander Zhang asked.

"This ......," I hesitated, "I think I want to, but isn't it too dangerous?" You must know that there are only two of us in the whole country, what if they are damaged by the enemy? ”

"That's why I'm going to give you a synthetic battalion to try your skills, right?" Commander Zhang said: "We want to first try whether it will be easy to use on the battlefield, or what problems will there be in actual combat, so that our military industry will be targeted in the process of imitation, that is, there will be fewer detours!" But like you said, we only have two in the country. So you must protect these two treasures! Questions? ”

"Commander, this ......" I couldn't help but hesitate at this time.

"What are you doing?" Commander Zhang couldn't help but wonder when he saw my watch: "Others can't look forward to this task!" You're good. Give this task to you, you are still unwilling! ”

I'm not actually unwilling, you know, this is a bad thing to go to war...... In the past, although our artillery did surpass the Vietnamese devils, it was a traditional artillery battle after all, and in the case of low accuracy, you came and went, even if the Vietnamese artillery was less than ours, it still had a considerable ability to fight back.

But now, I know very well that once we have this artillery sighting radar, it will be easy to deal with the Vietnamese devil artillery...... As long as the devil does a dozen cannons, when the shell is still in the air, the artillery aiming radar can calculate the specific location of the artillery position where the artillery shot this shell, so our artillery only needs to hit according to the coordinates calculated by the artillery sighting radar.

That is a harsh lesson to the artillery of the Vietnamese devils, not only for ourselves, but also for all our comrades-in-arms who have suffered from the artillery of the Vietnamese army.

But......

I am also very aware that there was an incident in history in which our army's artillery sighting radar was blown up by Vietnamese agents.

Could this be the same for us? If it really happened to us, how could I afford to take this responsibility?!

"Commander!" After thinking about it, I said, "I think it's better to contact the U.S. and see if we can buy two more from other countries." Such...... First, it can give us more room to move, so that once the artillery sighting radar is blown up, there will not even be a replacement. Second, it's also good for the military industry, you can compare and study the artillery sighting radars of different countries, and then learn from each other's strengths! ”

It's not that I came up with it out of thin air, but it has been done historically, that is, my country imported two planes from Britain and Sweden, so that the military industry can conduct poor photo research, and there is more freedom in the use of the battlefield.

"Hmm! That's a good idea! Commander Zhang nodded: "Anyway, the United States sells two planes, and sells four planes, which is not a few planes!" ”

I understand the meaning of Commander Zhang's words, which means that although the United States is now our ally, it actually still has a jealousy towards us, that is, it will hide a hand when selling advanced equipment.

But for the equipment that has already been sold, such as this gun-sighting radar...... Since the other party already has this kind of equipment, it is possible to master the relevant technology, so the difference between selling one and selling four is not very big.

"If that's the case, then no problem!" I said, "But first we'll have to get acquainted with it for a while!" ”

"Of course!" Commander Zhang said, "Let's start tomorrow!" ”

"What?" When I heard this, I couldn't help but complain that I wouldn't even let us rest. (To be continued......)
