Chapter XXXI Disarmament

Although it can be said that our synthetic camp has nothing to do with disarmament, we still feel an "earthquake" brought about by this disarmament. \\The reason is simple, we are at a base where there are quite a few troops stationed there, and these forces are the object of disarmament.

Because the disarmament business has nothing to do with our synthetic camps, I am not concerned with the disarmament program, but more concerned about the adaptive training of the synthetic camps...... The synthetic battalion has just returned to the plain from the plateau, and it will have to adapt to the weapons and equipment for a period of time, otherwise once there is a task, it is still according to the combat habits on the plateau, I am afraid that there will be trouble.

However, we are a soldier, and the members of the army are all soldiers, and as a soldier, we will always be particularly concerned about the reform of the troops, especially the soldiers of the composite battalion are still from different units, although they are now soldiers of the synthetic battalion, they still have feelings for the original troops, and even they will return to the original troops to see when they have the opportunity in peacetime, so they will inevitably care about the news of the lower troops.

So when I'm idle, I listen to the fighters and even the cadres talk about this disarmament.

Most of the current disarmament was a layoff of cadres, and the target was around 600,000. This is due to the fact that our military organs are too "mediocre and bloated", and each military region has more than a dozen or even dozens of leaders, as well as "regiment-level secret officers", "battalion-level typists", and so on, and the approximate ratio of several countries is: the Soviet Union 1:4.65, Germany 1:1o, France 1:17, but China is 1:2.45, that is, nearly one officer commands two soldiers to fight.

I don't feel very deeply about this, because I don't think there are so many "officers" in our army all along.

After thinking about it, I realized that this may be because I have been in contact with the grassroots for a long time on the front line. On the other hand. This synthetic battalion in my hands is a combat unit that has been carrying out high-intensity tasks for a long time...... There is a saying that "natural selection of the fittest survives". A unit like ours is directly exposed to all kinds of battles, and its training is completely faced with actual combat, and if it is "swollen" like other organs, it is afraid that it will not be able to survive in battle at all.

Therefore, when I heard that the ratio of our officers and men was almost 1:2, even I was taken aback, and this was really a comparison of "leaning the army and streamlining the administration"; otherwise, a large number of cadres in a unit going to the battlefield would not have much substantive role in the battle, but would also increase pressure on logistical supplies and the soldiers' defense work, thus affecting the combat effectiveness of the troops to a great extent.

Another 400,000 indicators are aimed at fighters. Although the number of these 400,000 is much smaller than that of cadres, the intensity of disarmament is also quite large.

In particular, many of the troops to be laid off are veterans who have fought and made meritorious contributions to the Yue devils...... This makes many people wonder what to do.

If this is from the perspective of our soldiers, it is really a bit incomprehensible, you must know that our soldiers have fought hard with the devils on the battlefield, even if there is no merit, there is hard work, how can you say that it will be cut? !

However, from the perspective of the state, the purpose of disarmament is to streamline the administration of the army and improve the overall cultural quality of the troops, and on the other hand, to invest the saved money in the research and development of advanced equipment under the same military expenditure, and these are all necessary conditions for building a modern army.

In fact, I would say that this disarmament is mainly determined by the fact that the importance of the infantry on the battlefield is becoming less and less.

If it's like the times of World War I, World War II. When a battle starts, it is a great charge of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and a large number of troops, and that sufficient supply of troops is the prerequisite for victory. No matter how much you cut it, you can't cut the head of a soldier.

However, the trend of history is like this: with the progress of science and technology and the advanced development of various equipment, the importance of the navy, the six air forces, and the three armed forces have also undergone earth-shaking reversal, which has forced the armed forces to carry out this "painful" transformation. Otherwise, one day when we go to the battlefield, in the eyes of the enemy, we will be nothing more than pieces of meat wrapped under military uniforms.

When personal interests conflict with national interests, soldiers have to make sacrifices again...... This is the characteristic of our army, the individual must unconditionally obey the collective, or the soldier must unconditionally obey the order, although this order is to get the soldier out of the barracks.

What we saw was the mobilization meeting on the nearby playground again and again...... I have never seen such a depressing mobilization meeting, in the past, the mobilization meeting was usually the soldiers in high spirits and made oaths again and again, but now what I see is that the whole audience is silent, and even the cadres presiding over the meeting on the podium are speechless, and only sigh heavily when they look into the microphone.

I was stunned for a while, and I didn't know who cried first, and the playground was like a gust of wind...... Since I came to this world, I have never seen this scene, these are all soldiers, they have not shed tears in the face of the bayonets and muzzles of the Yue devils, but at this time they cried.

The cadres on the rostrum did not speak, as if they intended to let the soldiers cry to their heart's content, so that they could vent all the grievances in their hearts.

This scene only made me and the soldiers sigh, and I only thought in my heart what kind of scene it would be if this situation happened to our troops.

"Battalion commander!" The instructor handed me a cigarette: "Did you hear that?" Four of the 11th Military Regions were withdrawn, leaving only seven military regions. ”

"Hmm!" I nodded.

I've heard of it, but not now, but in modern times.

"There's one thing I can't figure out!" The instructor frowned and said: "The withdrawal and merger of other military regions is understandable, how can the higher authorities merge the Kunming Military Region into the Chengdu Military Region?" The Kunming Military Region is the front finger of the devils, so don't you worry about affecting morale and command if you do this?! ”

"There's nothing I can't figure out!" I said: "This shows a problem, the more devils are no longer a problem, the battle on the side of the more devils still has to be fought, but that battlefield is used by us as a training ground, let the troops take turns to hone their skills, the victory or defeat has basically become a foregone conclusion, and it is impossible for the devils to turn over strategically." If the devils are smart enough, they should take the initiative to end this war, otherwise they will be dragged down by this war one day, but our army is happy to use this touchstone to build a modern army. ”

"Oh!" Hearing this, the instructor couldn't help but nodded.

"On the other hand." I continued: "The reason why we chose to retain the Chengdu Military Region is because Chengdu is located in a position that can take into account Tibet, Vietnam, and Burma, and if the military region is located in Kunming, this effect will not be achieved." ”

"Yes, yes!" The instructor nodded helplessly: "Look at me, I just came back from Tibet, why can't I understand this truth." It's the way it should be, it's the way it should be......"

I later learned that this was not because the instructor was not smart enough, but only by looking at the map I could understand what was going on, the problem of the war with Vietnam in the Yunnan direction, the border problem with India in the Tibet direction, and the problem of securing China's last economic corridor in the Burmese direction, all three directions pointed to a common denominator...... Chengdu.

The reason why the instructor couldn't figure it out was only because he was transferred from the Kunming Military Region, and as the so-called concern is chaos, thinking about his old unit fighting for life and death on the front line, but now it has been canceled, so he is a little unwilling in his heart.

Originally, I thought that the soldiers of the Synthetic Battalion should be glad during this period of disarmament, after all, they did not have to face the danger of being laid off like other troops...... To be precise, the term "this period of time" is not used accurately, because this major disarmament is not a one-size-fits-all process, but is carried out in batches and step by step, and it has been going on for more than two years before finally completing the task of disarmament of one million.

In the past two years or so, almost every soldier and cadre has to face the choice of going, staying, advancing, and retreating, and almost every soldier's family will be touched. However, only the synthetic battalion has never worried from beginning to end, and the synthetic battalion not only does not need to worry about being laid off, but can also select high-quality talents from various units as a reserve source as it did before.

In this regard, Commander Zhang said: "This is not my opinion, the purpose of our disarmament is to form a modern army with combat effectiveness, and the synthetic battalion is already such a force, so naturally there is no need to use a knife." If any unit refuses to accept it, no problem, as long as there is such a combat effectiveness as a synthetic battalion, anyone can not be cut! ”

Commander Zhang's words really played a certain role, and several of them did not believe in evil, or it could be said that under the pressure of the great disarmament, they wanted to compete with our synthetic battalion...... However, they soon realized that this was no different from disarmament, because in order to achieve such combat effectiveness as a composite battalion, it was necessary to first implement "lean troops and streamline administration."

As a result, this has actually fallen into an insoluble paradox: if you are unwilling to disarm, you must improve your combat effectiveness, and if you want to improve your combat effectiveness, you must disarm.

I couldn't help laughing when I knew this, no wonder Commander Zhang said such a thing so readily, you must know that this is against the disarmament task of the superiors and even the central government, I didn't expect him to fight this idea, and sure enough, this ginger is still old and spicy.

On the other hand, because of the disarmament, the reserve of our synthetic battalion has suddenly become more and more choices.

It's easy to understand that everyone in the other troops is in danger, and this cut is one million...... These million retrenched troops are actually our source of reserves, and I believe they are more than happy to be favored by our synthetic battalion and return to the barracks.

So this has given us a lot of convenience for the synthetic battalion, that is, we will no longer be regarded as "digging corners" by some troops as before. (To be continued!)
