"Judging from the current situation, it is not possible for the Army Academy to develop in an all-round way and truly become the cradle of the army's only all-round middle-level commanding officer. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Vice President Fang's words paved the way for the following conversation.

"Originally, the commanding officers of the special forces should also be trained by the Army Academy, even if you take a step back, the commanding officers of the Army Special Forces should naturally be trained by the Army Academy. "But the reality is that it is the work of the School of International Relations. We can't grab it, and the above won't approve it. ”

"How to make up for this shortcoming?"

Vice Dean Fang asked, looking at Li Mu with a smile.

His brows jumped, Li Mu thought for a while, and said, "Combined with the training of the new infantry unit commander of the Lu Academy, you can make a fuss." ”

After glancing at Wen Chaoyang, Vice Dean Fang nodded slowly with satisfaction, "It seems that I didn't find the wrong person." You worked in the Shadow Forces for a while, and I don't know much about the specifics, but as far as I know, the work you did at that time was no different from that of the Special Forces, and the techniques were similar. You have experience. ”

Li Mu was confused again, looking at this meaning, Vice President Fang wouldn't want to form a combat unit, this can't be.

"As you might have guessed, we are going to form a real combat unit, with an experimental nature, but not a special forces. Vice President Fang raised his hand, picked up the document and put it in front of Li Mu, "You have unique insights and a solid theoretical foundation in the field of digital new infantry units, and you are currently the most experienced among all the troops who have come into contact with this kind of unit, and you have the experience of commanding shadow commandos, you are the most suitable candidate." ”

Li Mu opened the file and raised his head in surprise when he saw him looking up, "Digital Light and Fast Combat Company?"

Smiling slightly, Vice President Fang nodded proudly, "That's right, you can see it as an improved version of our country from the U.S. Army Rangers." Resources were limited, and only one company was approved for the formation of the company, and it was of an experimental nature. ”

Looking at the look of surprise in Li Mu's eyes, Vice President Fang added, "It is the same key topic as the air assault force that you focus on, and it is also one of the key development directions of the army unit in the future." ”

"That's right. ”

Li Mu suppressed the excitement in his chest, and said clearly, "Under the general development direction of the army, air assault units and light rapid combat units are two types of troops that urgently need to be developed. Future ground warfare will not be confined to terrain and geography, and large-depth defensive operations will collapse under the blow of the enemy's superior air power. Only ground forces with a high degree of mobility can respond flexibly to the enemy in large-scale ground operations. ”

"Oh?" Vice President Fang was quite surprised and became interested, "According to what you say, the heavy mechanized troops have been abandoned?"

Li Mu said, "No, on the contrary, I think the construction has been strengthened. ”

"Tell me your point of view. Vice Dean Fang changed to a more comfortable position and sat down, full of interest.

Li Mu sorted out his thoughts and said, "When it comes to the root, it is related to China's geogeography and the international environment that China is facing. In the event of a large-scale war, there is no doubt that our country will still be fighting alone, and that it is very likely that we will be surrounded by a heavy encirclement. Heavy troops with strong offensive and defensive capabilities are like the pillars of the ground armed forces in the entire defense military system, and if the pillars fail, the other walls are meaningless. ”

After a pause, he said, "Taking a step back, in defensive operations, heavy troops have a defensive power that light troops cannot match. I mentioned that large-depth defensive operations are no longer appropriate, and I am drawing a conclusion from the perspective of the entire national defense strategy. The best defense is offense, and when it really comes time to exchange depth for victory, I'm afraid it's not a competition of technical equipment. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary to retain a certain size of heavy ground forces, as well as to strengthen their construction. ”

"And the urgent development of air assault forces, as well as light and rapid combat units, is to adapt to the current military situation. In the foreseeable future, the likelihood of a large-scale war is slim, and diverse threats are emerging. For example, for peacekeeping troops stationed overseas, light and fast combat units are the most suitable choice. Moreover, when it comes to dealing with low-intensity armed conflicts, both air assault units and light rapid combat units not only have greater flexibility than heavy armed forces, but also have much less impact at the political level. The impact of the presence of 10 light highly mobile combat vehicles in the border area and the appearance of 10 main battle tanks in the border area is definitely an order of magnitude difference. ”

Li Mu said, his brows furrowed, "But the problems we are facing are also very serious. Whether it is an air assault unit or a light high-speed combat unit, the first thing to be solved in order to implement the problem is transportation. To put it bluntly, it is projection, force projection, firepower projection, and accompanying support capabilities. The U.S. military's air delivery force can deliver the 101st Division to any region in the world within 24 hours, including tens of thousands of officers and men and thousands of pieces of equipment. We can't do that. ”

Vice Dean Fang shook his hand and said, "Xiao Li, you shouldn't think like this when you think about the problem. After half a century of steady development of the US military, strictly speaking, we are still in its infancy. Why should we grasp mechanization and informatization at the same time, isn't the purpose to catch up with the pace of the world's military powers as soon as possible? In the past, we owed too much homework, and we couldn't become fat in one bite, and it was good to have a sense of urgency, but we still had to be down-to-earth when doing things, and we could only move forward when we stepped steadily. ”

"It's good that you have a clear mind and that you have this awareness. Vice President Fang smiled and said, "This is also the reason why you were selected to be in charge of the formation of this light and rapid combat company." Until the basic conditions are ripe, the blueprint you have just drawn can only exist in the planning, and until then, you still have to do the work step by step. ”

Li Mu nodded deeply, "Chief, I understand. ”

"One thing you have to pay attention to is that our light rapid combat company is not an ordinary combat unit, but an experimental teaching unit. To put it bluntly, it is necessary to cultivate backbones. Vice Dean Fang said with a smile, "So soldiers, choose from the intermediate command class of the whole school." They are all cadres, and I am afraid that their level is higher than yours, and whether they can hold down the position is a big test for you. ”

Li Mu almost jumped up in surprise, "This!"

Wen Chaoyang, who had never spoken, said at this time, "After all, it is the teaching unit of the Lu Academy, of course, it must fit the nature of the Lu Academy. In order for the Lu Academy to develop in an all-round way, it is indispensable to have the ability to cultivate in this area. It took a lot of effort for the chief to win the opportunity, and no matter how difficult it was, it was not as difficult as you were in the Hunter Commando at that time. So you kid have to stand up. ”

Vice Dean Fang smiled and said, "Director Wen will fully cooperate with you, if you need anything, you can only do it in the Lu Academy, and I will give you the green light all the way." ”

Li Mu bared his teeth, took a deep breath, and said, "I will definitely go all out!"

"Xiao Li, the light and rapid combat company is directly under the hospital office, and there is no code name yet, so this right will be handed over to you, the first company commander. Vice President Fang nodded with satisfaction and said.

"Then let's call it 107 Company. (To be continued.) )
