As the instructor and the deputy dean left, more and more officers leaned towards the podium.

Academic debate, for a group of people who came to study, is like asking Zhang Fei to dictate the battle of Changbanpo, so that the past is no problem.

But if you want to talk about it, what else can you say except to say, "I used to poke his grandmother's 10,000 transparent holes"?

There are many officers who are eloquent and eloquent, but debates must be based on facts, not all speculation, and they will naturally focus all their attention on the areas in which they are good at.

Sure enough.

Chen Ming noticed Ding Yuan and Fat Colonel Zhao Shenghu, who had just been named by name, and the two were surrounded by everyone, constantly making sounds of admiration.

At the same time, the factors in the argumentative essay in a whisper, one by one, nodded like a chicken pecking rice, Chen Ming was quite depressed, he nominated three people just now, why is he the only one who cares?

It is said that the theoretical record of his manuscript is more comprehensive and has more reference value.

Just when Chen Ming felt bad.

Old neighbor Xie Canxiong ran over, patted Chen Ming on the shoulder, gave a thumbs up and praised: "Lao Chen, you are really awesome, you can be nominated for writing a manuscript, amazing."

"It's just that I think your situation is a little bad, what do you think, how can the command environment, command means and command information be reduced to the main elements?"

"Any commander who pulls this out knows that the most important factor is the commander and the commanded."

"In a war, one looks at the people, and the other looks at the weapons."

"People are commanders and soldiers, these two are the most important and indispensable, as for how to command, where to command, and how to give commanding orders, that is judged and decided according to environmental factors."

"Changes in local conditions at any time cannot be the main factor affecting the core of command."

"Your point of view became one of the core of the debate, and it didn't seem to be dominant."

Xie Canxiong's proposal with emotion, that expression seemed to be Chen Ming made some incomprehensible decision, and sighed there, very unoptimistic about the afternoon debate.

Chen Ming was not surprised by this.

Xie Canxiong was a person from the air defense brigade, and many of the instructions were given from above, and they did so, and there were not many opportunities to freely arrange operations.

What he just said would have been indisputable fifteen years ago.

Now, with the entry into informatization, there are more and more controversies in the academic world, which is enough to show that there are problems.

With the application and development of information technology in operations, it is inevitable that more and more attention will be paid to the status and role of information in the field of command.

To scientifically divide the elements of operational command, it is necessary to adhere to certain standards and principles and study the issue of dividing the elements of operational command.

It is also necessary to establish criteria and principles for the division of elements first.

These are not things that can be refuted by imagination and experience.

It doesn't mean that the higher the position, the right thing to say.

This old traditional thinking still influences a considerable number of people, who believe that the commander and the commanded are the main core.

The words are not bad.

However, today's operational environment, command environment, command means, and command information are in today's military industry, where science and technology are developing vigorously.

Man-machine integration has been achieved to a large extent.

Let's not talk about how those advanced countries around the world fought wars, let's talk about their own domestic exercises.

How can you still encounter the same picture of infantry charging as before?

They all rely on infantry vehicles, armored vehicles, and tanks for maneuvering.

From the perspective of the synthetic battalion, the environment of the operation, the environment in which the commander is located, the means of command and the information conveyed.

Absolute Impact: If none of these can become the core factors affecting the operational command, then what other aspects can become the core factors?

The reason why senior officers have different views is because there are now more divisions of the military and different units under command than before.

They were in the rear during the exercise, and with similar artillery brigades, army aviation brigades, and industrial and chemical brigades, their command was indeed not as complicated as that of synthetic troops.

Someone once said that the command of a composite battalion is almost as difficult as a previous infantry division.

This is not just talk.

According to Chen Ming's own experience in leading the Tiger Wolf Battalion, all the commanders added up to more than a hundred.

How many commanders of an infantry division did they add up to before?

Many officers stay in a single branch of the army all year round, and the tasks they carry out during the war are also very simple.

Their views are not necessarily wrong, but they are certainly incomplete.

But he's different.

Chen Ming has experienced the teaching method of the National Defense University of Science and Technology in the new era, and has also specialized in synthetic operations, so he is more aware of the focus of the current military academy training command department.

When he returned to the army, he participated in small-scale operations like Longya, and also led the composite battalion at the forefront of the current informatization and digital development, plus the second company of border defense.

He is more open-minded in terms of thinking.

He has all the characteristics of the new generation of officers, and it is unlikely that he can say that he is wrong.

Taking a step back, if it's really wrong, is there any point in debating the tournament? Vice Dean Lin won't let them debate in the wrong academic direction.

Looking at his manuscript, no one cared about it, and almost no one came to look for him, Chen Ming felt that he needed to pull an ally.

You can't really spray more than 50 people by yourself, right?

Although there is a good saying that there is a reason to go all over the world, it can't even be without a supporter, that's not too shabby.

Seeing Lao Xie looking aggrieved for himself, Chen Ming invited with a smile: "Don't be afraid, dare to write and dare to debate, besides, isn't there still the two of us advancing and retreating together?"

"Advance and retreat together? You say me? Xie Canxiong stretched out his hand to himself in surprise, and then put on a serious expression of righteousness and solemnity and said, "Lao Chen, don't worry, spiritually, I absolutely support you."

"But there is a good saying, Juxian still avoids relatives, we are too familiar, in order not to leave criticism, I decided to go to the other side."

"But don't worry, I'm in Hanying, my heart is in Cao, and I will definitely support you."

"Roll"

Chen Ming scolded with a smile, raised his hand to drive people away, this guy can really toss blindly, what is in Hanying's heart in Cao, he seems to be against everyone's thoughts.

The two joked a few words, Xie Canxiong stopped making trouble, and said with a dry smile: "Lao Chen, it's a joke to be virtuous and avoid relatives, but do you know why your views are rarely supported?"

"Tell me about it." Chen Ming nodded in response, he also knew the specific reason, he just wanted to hear what this old neighbor could analyze.

"Hey, the reason is very simple, the debate competition is different from others, if you want to vote for the views that you agree with, then many people will support you, after all, you also explained a lot of academic problems to us yesterday."

"Your point of view, many people will think it makes sense, but we are not familiar with it, and the debate competition is to get up and refute."

"Who do we refute in unfamiliar territory? Sitting next to you like a fool, with your head drooping, you are speechless in the face of any problem. ”

"That's not helping, that's dragging your feet, so, I'm mentally supporting you."

"yes, understood."

Chen Ming nodded, he did understand that differences of academic opinion had already arisen since he was studying the topic of operational command, and he wanted to change their cognition unless he could come up with enough examples to prove it.

Or they put forward points of view, which they themselves can refute one by one, otherwise, there is no point.

"Then I'll go and prepare, we'll see you in the afternoon debate." Xie Canxiong smiled and ran to the podium to participate in the discussion.

Chen Ming's side is not without support, and the officers who came to participate in the training also include officers from the original synthetic 169 brigade, as well as people from other synthetic units.

Know how important it is to command the environment and means of command and command information in synthetic command.

But unfortunately, the support is only a minority, and there are less than ten people in the end.

Chen Ming roughly estimated that the strength of their group was still much worse.

There are less than ten people here, more than forty people over there, all of them are elite soldiers, you can see from the wrinkles on your faces, the stars on your shoulders, you have experienced a hundred battles, old and spicy and unique.

It's not neat.

However, Chen Ming didn't take the matter of the debate group too seriously, anyway, it was in the afternoon.

It seems that the survey arranged yesterday is not the point at all, but the focus is still on today's debate competition.

After the half-hour break, Vice President Lin did not come back.

But the instructor Yang Fengrui is back.

He arranged for everyone to take turns to read the three selected manuscript proposals on operational command science and the factors influencing operational command.

Including Chen Ming, he also let him read the manuscripts of the other two.

Everyone is not required to present the same or contradictory point of view, but at least in the afternoon debate group, everyone has to express their opinion and make their position clear.

By the way, the candidates for Group A and Group B were also finalized on the spot.

According to the original arrangement, the debate group will be the third assessment group tomorrow.

In this way, Chen Ming and the others not only had to not take advantage of the debate, but also were beaten by more than 40 people during the battle.

It's not fair.

At the end of the morning class, a comrade who was assigned to Group B with Chen Ming, a lieutenant colonel named Fu Mingchuan, complained angrily: "I found that this academic always likes to complicate simple things. ”

"What factors can affect the command of operations, as far as the views put forward in the manuscript are concerned, Instructor Yang has just talked about it several times, and he has not clearly said who is more reasonable."

"Just say who's right, just publish the answers, and go to the debate group."

"If this is placed in the army, the debate will not be possible at all, it has nothing to do with right or wrong, it just needs to be implemented."

"Only the academy would be in such trouble."

Hearing the other party's complaints, Chen Ming shook his head and chuckled, and corrected: "What is required in the army is execution, and what is required by academics is verification, and the two cannot be confused."

"Engaging in academia is not like leading troops to fight, they are all thoughtful people, boldly put forward hypotheses, carefully verify, and need perseverance."

"Whether it is academic or scientific research, we need to accumulate and continue to explore, and we will not easily draw any conclusions, even if we have the answer in our hearts."

"It won't be like training and fighting in the army, an order will go down, whether it's right or wrong, and carry it out first."

"Academia requires not only meticulousness, but also sober analysis, and many academic and scientific research achievements are not found in experiments."

"Instead, they often appear in unexpected places for others, for example, most of the results of scientific research are based on the summary and analysis of experimental data."

"Therefore, this debate may also be able to lay the groundwork for academic research, so that the external conditions that affect operational factors will no longer become a controversial topic, but will become a unified and recognized topic."

"If these scholars also make a statement, and what they think is right must be implemented by others, just like in the army, then our country's science and technology will not progress, and will only continue to regress."

"Brainstorming is the core of academics."

Listening to Chen Ming's eloquent talk, Fu Mingchuan's resentful mood slowly melted, and he just complained.

In the face of the college's arrangement, is it possible that you can really put forward different suggestions?

Listening to the point that Chen Ming had just raised, he shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "No matter, debate is debate, who is afraid of whom."

"Don't look at the small number of people in our group B, if you really want to slap the table, you don't necessarily have less manpower than them."

"Besides, a debate may not necessarily produce results, as long as it does not exceed the scope, if we really have the ability, we can change a topic that is still controversial in academic aspects into a recognized topic through debate."

"Then I'm afraid that all of us in Group B will be hired as honorary professors by the National Defense Joint Operations College, and if we return to the army, we won't be able to make a big deal directly."

A few people were talking and laughing, and although they were not optimistic about the debate in the afternoon, they were not worried.

Chen Ming was noncommittal, walking beside him and not speaking, not that only the officers who fought were powerful, and those who were engaged in technology and scientific research were not good.

Not to mention it far away, the one who is known as the goddess of the Rocket Force at Kyoto National Defense University should always know, right?

Just a few years ago.

That is to be able to directly calculate in advance the position of the new foreign fighter by relying on the calculation formula.

This stop is not in their own country, but when they come out with new fighters, the fighters don't come out.

The goddess of the Rocket Army calculated the direction and specific location of their stay in the air through calculation.

When the news came out, the Eastern Theater deployed in advance to control the area in advance, and when the other party drove over with a pout, he found that the military had arranged it, and he didn't even dare to let out a fart.

Just roll back in the dust.

For a long time, I thought that there was a spy on my side, but later I learned that it was when their new fighter jets had not left the country, and they did not even plan to drive them out to deter.

Someone has already worked out all the information about their new fighter by formula.

Can this be said that people are not powerful?

The key is that the goddess of the Rocket Army is not a very professional scientific researcher, but she was transferred from the Rocket Force to the National Defense University.

Of course, there are many types in the military that are so powerful that they can't even be understood.

After lunch, Chen Ming did not rest, came to the classroom alone, picked up the manuscripts of Ding Yuan and Zhao Shenghu and began to study carefully.

That's what he is good for, not fighting unprepared battles.

If you want to really refute everyone's opinions with your own opinions in a debate, you must at least see what other people's opinions are.

After a cursory look at it in the morning, I couldn't figure it out at all.

If you still think that your opinion is not flawed after reading it, and you can still stick to your own opinion.

Only in this way can you have enough confidence to argue your own point of view in the debate.

Debates are a way to deepen your academic impression, whether you insist on your own views or have your views refuted by others, you can leave a deep impression.

For the purpose of real research.

Time passed little by little, and the National Defense University had a lunch break for the students at noon, but Chen Ming did not go back and sat in the classroom all the time.

Take other people's manuscripts, study them over and over again, and read them over and over again.

He has never led a unit other than the synthetic unit, but based on the experience he has learned from drawing inferences from one case and leading the unit and the general staff, it is not difficult to understand the other party's theoretical viewpoint.

Even during his study, Chen Ming had carefully sorted out in his heart what points the other party would take to refute him.

Just as Chen Ming was thinking calmly, he suddenly felt the hairs on his back explode, and he hurriedly turned to look at the door.

Vice Dean Lin Qingyuan walked into the classroom at this time, stared at Chen Ming, nodded and said, "The vigilance is good, you don't have to be like this in the academy."

"Hello Vice Dean."

Chen Ming didn't answer, and hurriedly got up and saluted.

"Sit down and keep doing what you think you need to do." Lin Qingyuan gave a rare return salute and said in a slightly gentle tone.

Part of the reason why this bad old man is not liked is that he never acts according to the rules and regulations, and other leaders are saluted, and they will return the salute.

No matter how big the official is, the main thing is a mildness.

He can't do it, most of the time he looks like a living person.

Chen Ming also felt a little surprised, but in this case, he couldn't do anything but be surprised.

Continue to sit in your seat, ready to study.

Lin Qingyuan sat in the position of the instructor and said to himself: "I read your manuscript in the morning, thinking that you should be here."

"In the manuscript, you described the advanced synthetic battalion, compared the unstable nature of the special forces, and integrated the backward conditions of the border defense company, and gave a comprehensive answer."

"But I also see remorse in your text, is it regret that you are fighting, or do you regret that you wasted a year in logistics?"

"Eh" Chen Ming heard Vice President Lin's words, and his heart was in a trance.

Regret?

Without a year of precipitation in logistics, where did he regret it.

I don't realize what I'm doing wrong, what I'm doing wrong.

"Vice Dean, I"

"Okay, you don't have to tell me the answer, you can decide for yourself, the debate will start soon, and the combination of academics and practice will make you progress faster."

"Lead well after returning to the army, your ability is good, and you don't embarrass Old Man Chai."

Lin Qingyuan said a digression without a clue, and then kept silent.

Chen Ming didn't say much, and continued to study the manuscript in his hand.

For more than an hour, the two did not communicate.

When the time for the afternoon class came, the students entered the classroom one after another, and when they saw that the vice dean and Chen Ming were both here.

The officers who entered had different expressions, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

Return to where you normally sit and stand still.

Chen Ming sighed, got up and returned the manuscript, waiting for a tough battle.
