Chapter 60: Atmosphere
After the exercise, a dinner was arranged by the superiors......
There is no big fish and meat, that is, some small dishes that we usually eat, such as peanuts and vegetables, and a pig is slaughtered in order not to be too shabby...... Make a few dishes of each part of the pig's body, add a few bottles of wine, and a few tables of wine will be set up!
It's just that the atmosphere at the wine table can't be lively, not only the cadres of the 391st Regiment, but also the senior cadres of the director group, and even the cadres of our synthetic battalion...... It's all a thoughtful look!
I can understand that......
As the loser of this exercise, the 391st Regiment even released a bold statement before the exercise, saying that Ren Na Synthetic Battalion had three heads and six arms, and he would not want to break through their defensive line...... I heard this sentence from Commander Zhang later, Liu Guoyan got a little carried away after arranging the defense line, and talked about it in the director team, and Commander Zhang had old comrades in the director team, so of course this word would reach Commander Zhang's ears.
However, it is this so-called impenetrable line of defense...... In the hands of the synthetic battalion, it was beaten into a mess in a few clicks, which made the cadres of the 391st regiment embarrassed!
The most uncomfortable thing is Liu Guoyan...... He originally said that he was sick and didn't attend this dinner, what a shame!
But Commander Huang believes that as a soldier, you must be able to afford to lose...... If you lose, you can do whatever you want, even if you want to show your eyes, you have to show up, so an order called Liu Guoyan over!
The reason why the senior cadres of the director group are depressed...... It is because most of them had the same mentality as Liu Guoyan at the beginning, thinking that we had the ability to keep the enemy out of the country...... On the other hand, the cadres of the director team also know it in their hearts. The Red Army took a big advantage in this exercise......
On the surface, it seems that the Red Army did not take advantage of anything. The Chinese army has the advantages of a large number of people, strong mobilization ability, and long defense time. But everybody knows...... If the equipment of the 391st Regiment in the exercise is followed, I am afraid that China can already be called a modern force in addition to the air force.
In fact...... In this exercise, in this defensive thinking and tactics of Liu Guoyan...... These advantages that the Red Army took advantage of in every possible way were basically useless......
For example, artillery...... Because we have air superiority, artillery can no longer be called artillery, it can only be called a battery...... Because these cannons are all dug and hidden in a tunnel, they are basically impossible to maneuver except for being able to pull them out and fire a few cannons. Once these artillery are allowed to maneuver...... The result is very likely to be annihilated by the air power of our army!
Another example is armored vehicles...... The armored vehicles of the Red Army, in its strategy of layered defense, were only tasked with transporting troops quickly to the next line of defense...... The more important role of armored vehicles should be said to be offensive, an armor that can quickly maneuver and seize the lead on the battlefield, while the Red Army used it as a defensive auxiliary......
From this point of view. Although Liu Guoyan was familiar with the tactics of the volunteers in the era of US aid Korea, he ...... However, they do not understand the advantages and disadvantages of modern equipment and the tactical application and coordination of these equipment.
To put it simply...... He is still obsessed with the tactics of decades ago, or he still clings to the illusion that millet and rifles can defeat the planes and artillery of the world's superpowers...... In other words, there are still some people in this era who hold such fantasies, and if you go deeper, it is actually a "spiritual atomic bomb" or "the uselessness of weapons".
This is actually normal...... If you want them to admit that this kind of thinking is wrong and needs to be changed, they will be eliminated by society...... This of course requires a painful, constant process of struggle.
From this point of view...... I still admire Commander Huang and Commander Zhang, senior cadres with foresight and sagacity...... From my point of view, it is normal for a modern person who is not in this circle to be able to think without being restricted. But Commander Huang and Commander Zhang ...... They're in this circle. You can even say ...... They themselves are the creators of these old tactics, and they are part of them......
The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was fought in the 50s. It's only been 30 years...... That is to say, senior cadres of some age like Commander Zhang and Commander Huang have basically participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and they have done the kind of thing of defeating US imperialist planes and artillery with millet plus rifles!
But they were just standing outside the circle and telling most of the others...... This tactic has fallen behind, and modern warfare can no longer use the old tactics, and can no longer hold the idea that bravery or spirit alone can defeat all enemies!
What about the cadres of our synthetic battalion...... Although he was the victor this time, he didn't know how to deal with himself in such an atmosphere...... Then I think about it, and I feel that it is not a good taste...... If we defeat the Red Army, doesn't that mean that the Soviet devils have defeated their own army? What's there to be happy about?!
As a result, there was a depressing atmosphere in the whole restaurant, and no one spoke or moved chopsticks...... Most people sit at their desks, either sighing or bowing their heads as if they were reviewing......
"Comrades!" Commander Huang stood up and said, "The exercise has been a complete success, we should be happy!" Why are they all downcast! ”
"Yes! Comrades! The commissar also stood up and said, "It doesn't matter if you win or lose...... The important thing is that we have achieved the purpose of the exercises, which not only familiarized us with the flexibility and versatility of the tactics of the Soviet troops, but also made us aware of the gap between ourselves and the enemy...... Only by knowing our own shortcomings, recognizing our own shortcomings, and then training against these shortcomings and deficiencies, can our army not suffer losses on the battlefield! And that's a good thing...... Comrades...... To the success of this exercise, we toast! ”
The political commissar's surname is Chen...... In fact, I have seen it a few times in the conference room of the Jingxi Hotel, but for me, a person who does not have a very good memory, I know that there is such a person, and now I know that the director team of this exercise is organized by this political commissar Chen!
"Stand up!" Commander Zhang was a little angry when he saw that the cadres around him were still not moving, and got up with a black face and scolded: "You are all still soldiers...... After such a setback, it's like a fucking dead mother! If you fight the enemy on the battlefield, you should all stand up and eat! Drink! ”
Or Commander Zhang, this statement is exactly what I want...... So he also stood up and said, "Yes! Dine! Drink...... If we are soldiers, don't put our heads on our pants...... Let tomorrow worry about tomorrow's things, and don't say anything today...... Just eat and drink! Have a good drink! ”
"Drink!"
"Drink!"
……
Seeing this, many warriors stood up one by one, raised their glasses, and drank them very dryly...... So the atmosphere quickly became lively, but there were only those cadres of the 391st regiment...... Although he stood up, his movements were very stiff and his expression was unnatural!
You know, I'm a guy who spends a lot of time at the wine table...... At this time, I let go and didn't care about the unhappiness of fighting with the 391 regiment before, without saying a word, holding the wine in his left hand and the bowl in his right hand, he walked up to Liu Guoyan and said boldly: "Head Liu...... Little brother, I was able to gain a little upper hand this time, it was a fluke...... Seriously, this exercise ...... Your defense has been an eye-opener for me! Little brother, I learned a lot more this time...... Thanks thanks! Come...... I salute you with a bowl! ”
As he spoke, the bowls in front of him and Liu Guoyan were full......
I'm really filming Liu Guoyan's ass...... You know, this sycophant also needs a little bit of level, for those who have achieved success or victory...... Then this sycophant is easy to shoot, just follow his success and victory! But what about those who fail...... It's hard to make a fuss......
Especially a sycophant like me, an overcomer...... If the beat is high, it will sound like harsh, and if the beat is low, it will be like showing off in front of him...... If you're not careful, people can turn their faces with you!
But what do I say...... The first is to admit that he won, but it was a fluke, and secondly, he has learned a lot from his defensive style...... These two points can be said to be true, so Liu Guoyan and his subordinates were very useful in their hearts, and the attitude on their faces immediately eased a lot!
"Where, where!" Liu Guoyan replied with some shame: "I'm all defeated under Battalion Commander Yang......
"Huh!" I interrupted Liu Guoyan's words and said, "What are you talking about...... As soldiers, it is common for us to win a battle today and lose a battle tomorrow...... What's more, it's just a drill!
Let's not talk about this today...... Today we only talk about drinking, and today we will use the amount of alcohol to talk about heroes...... Comrades, what do you think?! ”
"Good! Heroes by the amount of alcohol! ”
"It's done!"
"!"
……
So it didn't take long for the people at the table who were still depressed just now to be mobilized by me to pick up the bowls and dry them all up, and many people even came forward to toast me...... Although I don't remember a few people, I can recognize the wine in their hands...... So the comers did not refuse, and bowl after bowl clinked glasses with those soldiers who could have been said to be "enemies" a few hours ago!
The result is predictable...... Although I had developed a good amount of alcohol in modern times, I was able to run into so many people with a bowl in this way, and most of these soldiers were also very drunk, so I was soon confused and couldn't find the north.
In a daze, I felt someone help me back into my room, and I knew it was a woman...... Alas! Women...... It's not that Chen Yiyi will have anyone, so of course I won't let her go, and after entering the room, I took advantage of the wine to press her to the ground...... (To be continued......)
