At this time, I couldn't help but regret that I should not have accepted this task of assisting in the training of the Airborne Forces.

What I did not expect is that the Airborne Troops, as a trump card unit of our army, especially the ace mobile unit composed of party members, backbone cadres, and heroic units, have always had a layer of mystery to the outside world.

Needless to say, why it is mysterious, it is related to military secrets and even state secrets.

It is precisely because of this that the examination of the members of the Airborne Forces is much stricter than that of ordinary troops, and our composite battalion is a unit that assists in the training of the Airborne Forces, and it is also a unit that has repeatedly made combat exploits on the battlefield and won the trust of its superiors, so there is no such thing as auditing.

But here's the problem...... The absence of an audit does not mean that some people in the Airborne Forces are not vigilant.

For example, right now, this political commissar Liu is obviously suspicious of me, otherwise he would not have looked up information about me or even used words to trick me.

But I don't think I've got anything to worry about, what can they suspect of me? The spy of the more devils? Or a spy of the Soviet devils?

What a joke, I have repeatedly defeated the conspiracy of the Vietnamese army and the Soviet army on the battlefield, and it can even be said that I used Afghanistan to drag the pressure of the Soviet army on our army on the northern front of our country. If I were their spy, I wouldn't have shot myself in the foot like this!

In fact, it is precisely because of this that although I have many unspeakable strange things, such as sometimes knowing the plans of the Vietnamese devils in advance, and sometimes being able to guess what the Vietnamese army is going to do next, etc., my comrades-in-arms, superiors, and even Commander Zhang did not have the slightest suspicion about me.

I later realized I was wrong. Commissar Liu did suspect that I was a spy. It's just that it's not a spy for the Soviet Union or the Vietnamese devils. It's a Yankee spy.

And what I didn't expect is that there is still a lot of evidence to support this suspicion of Political Commissar Liu:

For example, I know a little English, which was demonstrated when I was in Afghanistan with Colonel Smith.

For example, I will know some high-tech equipment that is impossible for ordinary people in China to know, and I also know all kinds of coordinated tactics...... These would be strange if they were placed on the Chinese of this era, but if I were a spy sent to China by the United States, it would be logical.

In addition, my dealings with Li Li, an arms expert sent by the United States, were "unclear," and the reason why I said "unclear" was because some comrades reacted that Li Li and I often exchanged words in the dark where no one was...... I'm wronged, and it's more important to say that it's a love affair and a bad hobby. But in the eyes of Political Commissar Liu and others, it became "secret intelligence", so this almost confirmed that I was an "American spy".

The reason why I was able to develop freely in the army was because it was the honeymoon period between China and the United States, and Political Commissar Liu and his superiors guessed that the Yankees' strategic purpose was actually the same as our purpose in helping Afghanistan, which was to use the power of a third country to bring down the Soviet Union, the number one enemy of the United States.

The enemy of an enemy is a friend, and this saying is equally useful from country to country.

So Political Commissar Liu thought...... It is very likely that the Yankees wanted to help China, but they were unwilling to provoke the Soviet Union too much, so they thought of using "spies" to help indirectly.

That is to say, for them, the fact that I am a conspirator of the United States is beneficial and harmless to our military and even our country at this stage. And if the point is broken. On the one hand, our military will lose the help and guidance of an "excellent American adviser," and on the other hand, it will damage Sino-US friendship and Sino-US cooperation at the present stage. So they don't know it at all.

Not only did they not know about it, but they were even more convinced of the tactical theories I put forward.

Because for them, this is some necessary reform information that the US government has transmitted to our military through this "spy", and you must know that the United States is the only superpower and technological power that can compete with the Soviet Union in this era, so what can you believe if you don't believe this?

This naturally saved me a lot of trouble, at least not so many people would come and ask me how I knew this and that...... I'm an American consultant, so I'll know that these are normal.

Of course, my "security" is based on Sino-US cooperation, and the honeymoon period between China and the United States is short-lived, so my "security" is also short-lived.

In other words, although it seems that there is nothing on the surface, it can even be said that Political Commissar Liu and others trust and value me more, this is an era of stressing science and reform, and the United States represents science, and I represent the United States in the process of revolution, so I have a detached identity in their hearts. But in fact, this incident planted a crisis for me in the future.

These are all later words, on the surface, in the present, it is Political Commissar Liu, Regiment Commander Wu and others who have fully accepted the training of our synthetic camp.

Even Regiment Commander Wu, who did not agree with the tactical theory of our synthetic battalion, would come to our battalion headquarters from time to time to discuss the unit's composite operations and command issues, and would take notes while discussing.

At this time, I didn't know that there was actually a big reason behind this, but I simply thought that this Wu Regiment Commander had seen the doorway of the synthetic camp training on the training ground, so there would be such a big change in attitude.

But who cares so much? Our aim is to reform the troops and improve the combat effectiveness of the airborne forces as much as possible. So it's really a lot of talking, and you can talk for hours at a time, from the cooperation of snipers and infantry, to the cooperation of helicopters, artillery, and infantry, and sometimes you don't even want to waste time eating.

"Battalion Commander Yang!" On this day, Regiment Commander Wu sighed: "Originally, I was not optimistic about the training of your various arms in combined combat, but I didn't expect that there were so many famous halls here, and now I think about it, I still strongly opposed it at the beginning...... Alas! What a shame! ”

I just smiled, casually handed a cigarette to Head Wu, and asked, "Can you tell me why you opposed it in the first place?" ”

"Hey, don't mention that!" Regiment Commander Wu lowered his head and replied with some embarrassment: "I objected at the beginning, on the one hand, because I felt that such a few branches of the army would be chaotic when they mixed together, and on the other hand, I didn't want our troops to carry troops!" ”

"Hmm!" I nodded, and I thought of both.

As a matter of fact, if our army's communications equipment is still very backward in this era, it will indeed be chaotic to mix several arms of the armed forces on the basis of not having communications equipment.

"Actually......" Then Commander Wu said: "There is another point, that is, we have always been mainly infantry, and we believe that the spirit of people is the most important thing in war, and we rely too much on equipment...... That is a kind of expression of greed for life and fear of death! ”

"Oh!" I haven't thought about this, but it doesn't seem strange, because our army has always defeated strong opponents again and again on the basis of not relying on equipment, so it is normal to come to such a conclusion.

In other words, the pros and cons of reform in the Airborne Forces are actually a collision of two ideas, the old and the new, and two spirits.

The old idea is to focus on people and believe that people's spiritual power can defeat an enemy, while the new idea is to put people first and pay attention to the combination of people and equipment, with the aim of being able to exchange the greatest results for the least cost.

From the current situation, it is obvious that new ideas and new spirits have prevailed, after all, it is a fact that the increase in combat effectiveness and the reduction of casualties are also a fact. What is particularly important is that we are now catching up with the great wave of reform and opening up, and everyone is talking about "reform", "science", and so on, so those old-fashioned ideas naturally cannot stand.

Because of the full support of Head Wu and Political Commissar Liu...... To be honest, the support of the two of them is quite important for the training of the synthesis camp. Regiment Commander Wu often came to the battalion headquarters to communicate with me, and he himself had some combat experience...... His combat experience mainly came from the self-defense counterattack against India in '62, and he was transferred to the Airborne Forces precisely because of his meritorious service in that battle. Therefore, Regiment Commander Wu is deeply aware of the essence of synthetic training, and knows that cooperative operations are, in the final analysis, to learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses and provide each other with firepower or support. As a result, under his leadership, the cadres of the entire regiment began to actively study the command of coordinated operations.

Of course, there will be some more or less conservative cadres or soldiers who cling to the old tactics, and this is when the political commissars, instructors, and instructors come into play.

As a result, the progress of the training regiment was very rapid, and in just over a month, the soldiers of the training regiment mastered the coordination with other arms.

I used to think that the soldiers of the Airborne Forces might have a hard time accepting the change of new tactics because of the training they had received before, but I did not expect that the process of their transformation was very fast and very effective.

I think the most important reason for this is the support of Political Commissar Liu and his instructors and instructors, who are responsible for the ideological work of the fighters, and they guide the fighters to transform into new ideas.

The only thing here that made the fighters of the Airborne Forces feel very difficult...... It's that we ask them to observe the coordinates.

It is true that the Airborne Forces are composed of the backbone of each unit, but this does not mean that their cultural level is high, so a considerable number of people have a headache with the calculation of the coordinates of this artillery. (To be continued......)
