As the highest military command body of the Later Ming Dynasty, the organizational structure of the Metropolitan Governor's Office has not changed much.

The Metropolitan Governor's Mansion was founded in the Hongwu period, but it did not exist for a long time, in the thirteenth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang changed the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to the front, rear, left, right, and middle five armies in order to disperse the military power and avoid the harm of the "power ministers holding the army".

However, later Ming Shizu changed it back, which was to improve the efficiency of command, and restored the newly designed Dadu Governor's Mansion, in addition to the Department of Affairs, changed the military order, military uniform, military situation, military affairs four departments.

The Military Command Division is responsible for formulating operational plans and campaign commands; The Ordnance Division is responsible for the transportation and supply of weapons and equipment; The Military Intelligence Department is responsible for intelligence, communications, military mail, etc.; The Ordnance Service is responsible for internal service and wartime administration.

It can be said that in the era of the great chaos in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the staff command organs thus formed were complete and had a clear division of labor, and basically had the framework of the modern general staff, which can be said to be ahead of its time. It successfully organized a series of large and small battles with considerable efficiency, and made a significant contribution to the pacification of the world by Emperor Sejo.

Of course, in recent decades, it has not been without changes, such as the reestablishment of three land, sea and air departments, and a staff office, but the core framework has basically not changed.

Now, the people of Zhou Changfeng are flipping through stacks of files on topographical and hydrological features, writing and drawing at the same time, discussing specific campaign deployments and tactical plans.

Although he was not happy to get along with Yan Chenwu in private, the main thing was the right thing, and there was no room for personal feelings, so the two of them completed the specific deployment in a few hours and revised the attack plan three times.

At noon, after a simple bowl of noodles, the two finalized the plan, and then quickly completed the drawing of the tactical strategy.

This time, the form of the wargame is somewhat peculiar, the commanders of the two armies do not directly touch the sand table, but sit in the opposite corner of the hall and cover it with a screen.

Both sides could only look at the maps in their own hands, and the orders issued and the changes in the battle situation learned of them all relied on manpower to communicate; The specific operations on the sand table, as well as the combat strength, losses, and progress, are calculated by the staff officers.

In a few moments, the deduction officially began.

Zhou Changfeng and Yan Chenwu, who were located in the southwest corner of the hall, sat at a small table with a map and began to attack according to the predetermined plan.

As soon as their order was given, one of the soldiers walked out of the screen and walked to the sand table in the middle to tell the staff officers there, who began to calculate the complex formula for calculating combat power, and at the same time added some strange coefficients according to the situation.

Next, after the calculation and evaluation are completed, the battle situation is also fed back to the actors on both the offensive and defensive sides in the form of oral description.

"Two heavy field artillery brigades and one siege artillery brigade were assembled for large-scale artillery bombardment, and a bomber wing of the Air Force carried out repeated air strikes on key targets."

"The No. 4, No. 9, and No. 10 batteries were judged to be destroyed, and the defensive firepower base was reduced by three."

"The communication line was judged to be destroyed, and the backup communication line was replaced with a combat efficiency reduction of ten percentage points; Seventy percent of the preset fortifications in the B area were judged to be destroyed......"

"At 16:30 a.m., the 1st Battalion and the 2nd Battalion of the 1st Marine Regiment were attacked by the enemy's artillery battery fire during the transportation process, and it was judged that the battle loss was 30 percent, the morale was reduced by 2, and the combat efficiency was reduced to 50 percent and a half."

"At twenty-three o'clock, the 2nd Battalion of the 2nd Marine Regiment quietly landed on the east side of the island, and was detected by the enemy's warning hearer, and the surprise attack was judged to be invalid......

"At five o'clock, 20 percent of the floating combat convoy of the 1st Marine Regiment was lost and lost, and the rest were hit by enemy anti-artillery fire, and less than 30 percent of the vehicles were available, so it was judged that they had lost their combat effectiveness."

However, the weighted combat power and battle situation data seem a little strange?

Zhou Changfeng, who was quite beautiful during this time, frowned at the moment, and Yan Chenwu, who had always been arrogant and self-conscious, was also full of black lines.

The latter reached out and tugged at the neckline, couldn't help but walk out from behind the screen, and then said in annoyance: "Senior! How is this rated? Can the enemy know the prophet? Can you expect everything? Cannonballs are like eyes! ”

The deduction has not yet ended, and when the battle is raging, not only Yan Chenwu is angry, but even Zhou Changfeng, who has experienced fighting with "aliens" before crossing over, is also quite dissatisfied.

It is reasonable to pay attention to the enemy tactically and anticipate the enemy's leniency, but how can the enemy be strengthened so outrageously?

In Zhou Changfeng's memory, the defensive battle of the U.S. and Philippine troops on Korrogidor Island in history could only be described as average, and finally when several "bean chariots" landed, the U.S. and Filipino troops collapsed and surrendered.

Zhou Changfeng just wanted to speak, but Yan Chenwu raised a few colored pencils in his hand, and then said angrily: "Is war a game? It is also necessary to talk about rules and regulations on paper, and it is unreasonable to indiscriminately strengthen the enemy and weaken our side! ”

When Yan Chenwu complained loudly, it happened that Xu Zhanwei stepped over the threshold and walked in.

Hearing this, he just raised the corners of his mouth, and then said with a smile as he walked: "Having said that, the actual combat situation is changing rapidly, which is so ideal?" It is difficult for wargames to simulate such unexpected situations, so they have to make a fuss about the calculation of combat power. ”

He glanced at the people present and said slowly: "Don't be haste, be patient, and go steadily and far." To be calm and indifferent, how can you lose your temper as a general? ”

More than a dozen people here clenched their fists and said yes.

Zhou Changfeng said helplessly: "Chief Xu, we understand the principle of leniency for the enemy, but there must be a basic law, right?" The hit rate of enemy shells was frighteningly high, and 60% of the landing ships of the first and second waves were sunk during the approach, but based on the experience of the navy, this is completely impossible. ”

Ah, the co-authorship was hit by a laser-guided projectile, right?

Xu Zhanwei, who was calm, still said calmly: "So what? Treat this as if it were the worst of a real battle, and it is better to suffer anger here than to lose a lot of money on the battlefield. ”

Yang Zhen on the side made a round, he picked up the baton and pointed to the sand table, and said with a smile: "But even if it is not easy, the two marine regiments have still made great progress, and now the second and third battalions of the first regiment have landed, and the third and fifth battalions of the second regiment have also gone ashore, and the five landing sites have been stabilized, and it is only a matter of time before this island is conquered." As far as the command is concerned, you two are very good, no worse than the ticket in the staff office. ”

Zhou Changfeng and Yan Chenwu were silent, and after a long while, the former sighed helplessly: "If I really take Colorigidor Island at this price, I think I will probably have to go to court-martial." ”

Judging from the current deduction, the final estimate of the two Marine Corps is that they have lost more than half, and they can win, but this is an out-and-out crushing victory.

This is a reinforced regimental unit of more than 4,000 people, and the loss of more than half means that these two units are completely disabled, and it will take a lot of time to reorganize after the war, and it may not be able to recover in time.

Yan Chenwu took a deep breath, and then Zhou Changfeng's words continued: "The fifth officer has graduated from university, and the fourth has graduated from a practical middle school; The soldier also had six become secondary school graduates. This is a higher proportion than most of the army, and if a soldier of this quality suffers such a high loss, the commander cannot escape the blame! ”
