Chapter 161: Natural Affinity, the Legendary Thousand-meter Obstacle Course
After the discussion meeting.
A group of old men were reminiscing endlessly about the past.
Many people thought that Chen Mo's unnecessary vote was just a young man eager to win, and they were dissatisfied with the fact that it was raised in such an occasion.
No one took it seriously.
After all, we are all people who have been through this age and understand the desire to be the first in everything and not fall behind others.
But others didn't care. Deputy Dean Zhang Jinnan, who was in charge of this experiment at the Lu Academy, was looking for an opportunity angrily.
Chen Mo was taken to a slightly smaller office next to the conference room.
The two just walked into the room.
Vice President Zhang slammed the lesson plan in his hand on the table, then turned to look at Chen Moshi.
His gold-rimmed glasses reflected a sharp light.
Even the muscles on his face were trembling slightly, and it was obvious that he was very angry.
After all, although these people who teach or engage in academics often come up with bold ideas about some assumptions, they are often extremely cautious when seeking verification.
He certainly wouldn't be like Chen Mo, who would make a statement based solely on his own preferences.
At least, Vice President Zhang thought that Chen Mo’s three-month period was pure nonsense.
Seeing the old man in front of him almost fainted with anger, Chen Mo was also a little confused in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Hello, Chief!"
"I'm such a piece of shit." Zhang Jinnan roared, "Didn't you read the information I just sent to you?"
"You should be able to understand how much effort and manpower and resources were invested in building this training base. Do you know our school motto?"
"Unity, striving, truth-seeking, innovation. I don't care which unit you come from. When you leave school, you'll be a commander. You should ingrain truth-seeking into your heart."
"Three months, you really dare to speak."
As the saying goes, the deeper the love, the more severe the criticism.
Zhang Jinnan really admired Chen Mo's courage to think, speak and take risks, and believed that he was a talented person with great potential.
Therefore, when scolding, he is more harsh than usual.
But to be honest, his self-righteous position as vice president and his harmless scolding were not as powerful as Cheng Dong's constant curses of "son of a bitch".
Chen Mo waited there for the old man to calm down a little before he quickly took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to him with a smile, saying, "Chief, have a cigarette."
"Don't give me that."
Zhang Jinnan waved his hand. Although his anger had not completely subsided, there was no need to be really angry.
After taking the cigarette and lighting it, he walked to the office chair nearby and sat down. "It's Principal Yuan's suggestion that you go to the Academic Affairs Department to be an instructor."
"It's just for experience. How old are you this year? Twenty?"
"It's not certain that the base will be completed within three months. It's simply nonsense. The subsequent site selection, construction, and foundation laying will take some time."
"Just go back and wait patiently. It won't be too late to go there after you finish your cultural studies and receive your rank."
"Tomorrow is the mid-month assessment, you better be careful and don't get too carried away."
"Don't worry, Chief. I promise I won't let the department down." Chen Mo continued with certainty.
But the scolding has been done, and the education has been given.
Chen Mo still stood there, showing no intention of leaving.
Seeing this, Zhang Jinnan raised his head and frowned: "Go back. What's the matter? Are you waiting for me to see you off?"
"No, Commander." Chen Mo laughed dryly. "Calm down, old man. I just looked at the draft training course document prepared by our academy."
"It only mentions the different subjects, but the categories are quite comprehensive, including basic armored troop training and radar reconnaissance equipment operation and maintenance."
"Are these subjects elective or how are they arranged? Are there any hard and fast requirements for training?"
Let’s get down to business.
Vice President Zhang's frown relaxed slightly. He pondered for a moment before responding, "The academy is currently considering this."
"The original plan was to recruit a group of grassroots soldiers, train them for a year, and each person would choose two elective subjects. After graduation, they would be assessed and awarded corresponding technical level certificates."
"But this depends on the educational level of the comrades assigned by the military region. The academy currently considers those with a minimum high school degree, and the basis for subject selection is the cultural score of the entrance examination."
"You're right about one thing. In previous experiments, the academy always neglected to make arrangements after success. This time, we're more prepared. I hope we can see the results."
High school education
Chen Mo chewed over this condition and shook his head secretly.
He is not exaggerating, these academic people in the college.
Or I've been away from the grassroots for too long.
This was 1999, and the country was in the midst of a major military downsizing. Many new recruits were laid off this year, and the staff was streamlined.
Relying solely on the armored units of the 38th and 63rd Armies, it would be difficult to pick out an entire battalion of at least 200 veterans with a high school education.
I’m afraid it’s quite difficult.
It’s not that there aren’t so many.
But it is an armored unit, and the technical requirements are already high. How can there be so many grassroots units willing to contribute their precious talents to enter this so-called training base?
Since information technology is still in the confidentiality stage, the training cannot be fully open to the public. Even if someone is selected, it has to be done secretly. Who would be willing to do such a thing that will lead to no return?
But this is something that needs to be considered later, so there is no rush to propose it now.
Chen Mo scratched his head, remembering the theory of strengthening the risk resistance of the command system that he had mentioned to Tao Ruichang at the light weapons training ground.
He hesitated and said, "Commander, I think we need to add another one to this major."
"Add one? What do you mean by adding one? Tell me."
Zhang Jinnan was stunned for a moment.
"Yes, Chief."
Chen Mo nodded affirmatively and said, "Informatization corresponds to synthesis. Otherwise, no matter how high the degree of informatization is, due to the timeliness issue, the combat effectiveness will not be much stronger."
"When facing synthesis, we must accept the constant changes in combat organizational structure and the continuous innovation of technical equipment. Our true armored infantry has only appeared for a few years."
"The high school diploma requirement is too high. Even if many units are willing to cooperate, I'm afraid they won't be able to allocate the number of people we need."
"I've thought about this question too." Zhang Jinnan nodded thoughtfully, then said, "Go on."
"yes."
"Commander, I believe that command is something that is largely determined by talent. There are many soldiers at the grassroots level who haven't met the requirements for promotion, but who possess command talent."
"We might as well give this guy a chance."
"The training base has established a course for command sergeants. The content required to learn covers all infantry subjects. It's okay to have higher requirements for these people."
"A high school diploma is required. Upon admission, we will assess and select a group of well-rounded sergeants. As for the others, the requirements are not so high. It depends on their understanding and talent. As long as they are competent or interested, they can do the job."
"You can also choose two subjects to study. This way, the people who receive key training will be separated from those who receive general training."
"Once their training is complete, these sergeants will become versatile personnel for the experimental unit, and will definitely be able to play a more comprehensive role than other professionals in complex synthetic structures."
"More importantly." Chen Mo said this, and he deliberately kept the other person in suspense.
He continued, "If too many commanders are killed in combat and the unit's combat effectiveness drops to freezing point, these command sergeants can quickly and effectively organize sustained combat capabilities."
Commanding Sergeant Major.
After Chen Mo finished his introduction.
Vice President Zhang tapped his fingers on the conference table. He had completely forgotten that he had come here just now to teach the young man in front of him a lesson for his arrogant remarks.
Zhang Jinnan had an illusion at this moment.
He felt that Chen Mo seemed to have a natural affinity for information technology.
For example, the academy has always emphasized that informatization is just a different combat system, but it has never thought about training from the source of soldiers, and has always used ready-made units for experiments.
For example, the training subjects were personally determined by the college’s senior experts in information technology and synthesis research.
All aspects have been taken into consideration before it appears on the document for the people coming from the military district today to review.
After Chen Mo said this, they realized that they had not considered the command issue between the synthesis nodes at all.
As an academy that teaches junior command, Lu Academy actually needs a student to point out the importance of command nodes.
Zhang Jinnan couldn't tell whether he should praise the young man in front of him for being smart or whether the college was being too one-sided.
With so many people, are they really not as good as one student?
Knowing that what Chen Mo said made sense, Zhang Jinnan nodded decisively: "I understand the command sergeant's question."
"If you have any other ideas, tell them all at once. Don't be so surprised all the time."
"there is none left."
Hearing this, Chen Mo hurriedly shook his head: "Commander, this is all I can think of for now."
"Okay, your suggestion is very useful. I will make changes to the training major as appropriate."
"Just do what you need to do."
After hearing Vice President Zhang's order to expel the guests, Chen Mo stood at attention and saluted.
He stood there hesitant for a moment, then finally said, "Commander, the three-month deadline I just mentioned next door wasn't an exaggeration."
"Please believe me, as long as the training personnel are in place and the instructors at the academy cooperate, give me three months and I will definitely be able to command a true battalion-level information-based unit operation."
Chen Mo finished speaking.
He didn't dare to wait for the vice president's reaction. He turned around quickly and ran faster than a rabbit.
He quickly left from the fourth floor of the Jing'an Teaching Building.
But the same sentence, when said in a different context, will give people a completely different feeling.
Looking at the conference room door that was closed again.
Zhang Jinnan fell into deep thought. Ever since Chen Mo raised the question of commanding the sergeant major, he had a new understanding of this young man.
after all.
Whether it was the proposal for training or his views were consistent with the thinking of informationized warfare.
In a great country with millions of troops and many talented people, there will always be a few particularly outstanding talents that have not been discovered.
There's nothing surprising about this.
Gan Luo was appointed prime minister at the age of twelve. He attacked Guo by pretending to be the enemy, bullied Zhao and attacked Yan, and planned to build twelve cities for the Qin Dynasty. Huo Qubing was made a marquis at the age of seventeen, made three expeditions to Hexi, and was granted the title of Wolf's Lair at the age of twenty-one. He inscribed the stone at Yanran and was named the champion of the Han Dynasty. Zhang Juzheng passed the imperial examination at a young age and continued the Ming Dynasty's century-long destiny.
These deeds are widely circulated among the people. Now that there are a few quick-witted geniuses in the army, there is nothing wrong with it.
But this kid Chen Mo made suggestions one after another, each time just right, as if guiding the college to complete this experiment.
Zhang Jinnan always felt that this kid was hiding something.
But when I think about it carefully, it seems unlikely.
Could it be that as a student, he really understands what synthesis and informatization mean and understands future trends?
Vice President Zhang was shocked by his own thoughts and immediately stood up to organize the documents.
I plan to go to the command department and change the questions drafted for the training subjects.
Because, according to the current plan of the Lu Academy, all trainees are required to have a high school diploma and take two elective courses.
On the whole, it is indeed not as safe as the diversion suggestion proposed by Chen Mo, which is to separate the personnel in key training professions and general training.
It is more in line with the current situation at the grassroots level.
Coming out of the Jing'an Building, Chen Mo walked straight towards Cuiping Mountain.
The assessment is due tomorrow. The college attaches great importance to the mid-year assessment, and it is also the first assessment for this batch of students who entered the school in May.
Even Chen Mo didn't dare to be careless.
As for Vice President Zhang's doubts just now, there is no need to think about it. As someone who has experienced the future, he really understands the college's next experiments.
Not to mention a small information technology experiment.
There would be no problem even if he was asked to draw a large-scale synthetic construction map.
At this moment, the college already has sufficiently mature ideas about the direction of future development.
But ideas are ideas, and practice is practice.
It will take more than ten years to go from a vague concept to the clear blue sky after the clouds are peeled away.
The reason why Chen Mo chose to push the experiment forward step by step is because only the advice that is suitable for the current situation is the best advice.
Even if he could draw up a combat plan that integrated land, sea, air, space and electronic warfare, would it be useful?
Not to mention whether anyone can understand it, even if they do, what can they do? It is simply not suitable for this era.
When Chen Mo returned to the light weapons training ground again.
As it was close to noon and the weather was too hot, the training had been stopped.
More than seventy students from the two teams of reconnaissance department were hiding in the shade of the trees to cool off.
Wang Bo saw Chen Mo coming slowly and started cursing, blaming the dog scholar for being disloyal and for not training anymore and leaving the gun and weight to him.
The resentment lasted for several hours.
Who would have thought that when he saw Chen Mo again, Fatty Wang acted particularly affectionate.
He returned the 85mm sniper rifle he was carrying to Chen Mo, along with his helmet, magazines, and other equipment. He grinned, "Scholar, I just saw you leave in the commander's car."
"Are you done with your work?"
"Well, I'm done." Chen Mo took the equipment with some surprise.
Recently, he moved back to dormitory 402. After spending more than half a month together, he has a good relationship with several people in the dormitory.
This also includes Fatty Wang.
But in my impression, this guy has never been so easy to talk to. He helped me carry the gun for half a day, but he looked so happy.
But soon, Chen Mo's doubts were dispelled.
I heard that he was done with his work.
Wang Bo put his hands on his hips and laughed, "Damn it, I finally caught you. Lao Fang said he was worried we'd be too hot this afternoon, so he changed the subject to something easier for us to practice."
"Have you ever seen Lu Yuan's individual obstacle course?"
Individual obstacle course?!
Chen Mo was stunned when he heard this. He had actually heard of this subject before. It was known as the Lu Academy's 1,000-meter obstacle course, and it was quite famous at the moment.
If running 400 meters can make a person almost die, what does running 1,000 meters mean?
But the problem is, we are going to practice the 1,000-meter obstacle course, why are you so happy, fat guy?
It's as if you don't have to participate.
