Chapter 159: Sounding out the truth, it's time to discuss terms
The training of the reconnaissance department is different from that of the army. The assessment is not only about physical fitness, but also includes theoretical practice.
For example, the corresponding theoretical education courses on sniper rifles not only focus on domestic standard weapons, but also on the standard weapons of foreign armies.
Rest time.
Some old non-commissioned officers gathered in groups of three or five, whispering and discussing topics related to the female comrades in the Army Academy, and occasionally bursting into laughter.
That look is so disgusting no matter how you look at it.
Some took out the notebooks they carried with them and reviewed how to determine the target distance through optical ranging during sniper practice.
Among those who were promoted, there were some who were eager to learn, and some who were completely useless.
Chen Mo didn't know the formula for this sniping either, he was just cramming at the last minute. He just followed what the academy taught him.
He was studying the Kentucky wind correction method and related knowledge about height and low angle compensation.
Wang Bo, who was sitting nearby, suddenly moved in front of Chen Mo, poked him with his finger and said, "Scholar, what are you mumbling about?"
"It doesn't matter whether you learn this crap or not. You won't be able to use it when you return to the army."
"Look at the person coming over there, does he look familiar?"
"Who is it?"
Chen Mo looked in the direction Wang Bo pointed. The light weapons shooting range at the foot of Cuiping Mountain covered a very large area. At a glance, he could clearly see the two military vehicles parked at the entrance.
But the person coming towards this side is a little hard to see clearly, but the figure is indeed very familiar.
Chen Mo got up from the ground holding the 85 sniper and looked at it carefully with his eyes narrowed.
After a while, they recognized the person. It was the captain who had sent this group of students from the military region.
Lieutenant Colonel Zhai Hongtao of the Political Department of the 63rd Army.
"Why is he here?" Chen Mo was stunned.
In the past half month, the academy has not mentioned the construction of the base, and he has been concentrating on training and cultural courses.
Now, when he suddenly saw someone coming from the military district, Chen Mo's heart moved and he could probably guess what was going on.
After all, apart from the matter of building a training base, people from the military district would not run hundreds of kilometers to Shimen Luyuan for no reason.
I will never come to this light weapons shooting range.
Chen Mo's intuition was correct. Zhai Hongtao, who was coming towards him, quickly spotted him and said, "Scholar, come here."
"call!"
Hearing the other person calling him, Chen Mo took a deep breath and tried his best to calm his increasingly violent heartbeat.
It would be fine if someone from the military district came.
Their arrival means that the college has begun to take it seriously, because a land college alone cannot carry out a plan like a training base.
The final cooperation partners can only be the several group armies under the Kyoto Military Region.
Chen Mo dusted himself off and turned to look at Fang Huai who was standing in the distance. No matter what, Captain Fang was his direct superior in the academy.
You must apply to leave the team.
Fang Huai seemed to know who the visitor was and didn't pay any attention to Chen Mo's situation. He just arranged for someone to come and take away all the equipment he was carrying, including guns.
Just release him.
They were about to climb the hill with a heavy load. A group of students and veterans were watching eagerly. This poor scholar was going to quit and run away again. They all stared at Chen Mo with burning eyes.
They have been very puzzled.
Why does this guy have so much trouble every day? He didn't have to train for a while, and he has only been training for a few days, and he is going to jump up again?
After all, even the equipment has been taken off, so there is definitely no need to practice anymore.
Chen Mo didn't care what these old hands thought. He quickly walked up to Zhai Hongtao, stood at attention, and saluted: "Hello, Chief!"
"Oh!"
Zhai Hongtao returned the greeting, looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "This school really is good for people. He's only been here for half a month, but he looks a lot stronger."
"How is it? Are you getting used to it here?"
"It's okay, every day is quite fulfilling, but it's not as comfortable as staying in the company." Chen Mo smiled and looked up at the military vehicles in the distance with a puzzled look.
"You kid."
After noticing Chen Mo's gaze, Zhai Hongtao nodded towards the military vehicle and said, "Go ahead. Director Tao and Minister Lin are in the car behind. The commander has something to ask you."
"Even if I don't tell you, you should be able to guess what it is."
"yes!"
Chen Mo straightened his chest and responded in a loud voice.
Then, he ran quickly towards the military vehicle.
We are all smart people, what else is there to say?
Chen Mo could not only guess why the people from the military district came here, but he could also guess why they came to the academy and came to find him first.
This is not difficult to guess.
There are many things that the academy and the army cooperate on. Apart from the different tasks they undertake, everything else is almost the same.
When the troops encounter technical problems that they cannot solve, they often send cadres to the academy for help, and when the academy needs to experiment with some data, the troops often have to cooperate.
The Blue Army Camp had conducted so many experiments before, and the confidentiality level was always very high, so high that even many people in later generations were not aware of it. The Kyoto Military Region had conducted many experiments since 1992.
The result is failure every time.
If Chen Mo had not served as a confidential secretary and happened to see the experiment process when the document "On Informationized Warfare" had passed the confidentiality period,
He also didn't know that there had been a Blue Army Battalion in the past that ate hamburgers, beef, and wore foreign military uniforms.
With these premises, it is not difficult to guess that the people from the military district came here this time probably to inquire about the establishment of this training base.
In other words, since personnel are to be trained, they must be drawn from the armored units of the 63rd and 38th Armies.
In order to save trouble, the training base will definitely be set up in these two military regions, since the plan was proposed by themselves.
People from the 63rd Army will definitely come and ask in advance.
No matter what, they are all one of us.
Chen Mo trotted to the old Peugeot. Before he could figure out how to greet the commander, a soldier sitting in the passenger seat pushed the door open and got out of the car, then opened the back door.
Two people got off the car. One was an old man with a gold star on his military rank, Tao Ruichang, the director of the Political Department of the 63rd Army who awarded Chen Mo the second-class merit.
This old man Tao always gives people the impression of being very kind and easy to talk to.
Chen Mo also knew the other person, Minister Lin whom Zhai Hongtao had just mentioned, that is, Lin Yanhua, the Minister of Training Department of the 63rd Army.
“Hello, Chief!!”
Seeing the two leaders getting out of the car, Chen Mo hurriedly stood at attention and saluted!
"Hey, comrade, we meet again. Do you still remember me?"
Tao Ruichang looked at Chen Mo with a smile, speaking in a very casual tone.
He didn't think about the fact that many people, as a deputy army-level cadre, had served in the grassroots level of the field for many years and had no chance to have close contact with him.
How could I not remember?
"Commander, I definitely remember it. I won't forget it." Chen Mo said, deliberately raising his hand to touch his left chest. He continued, "Commander, when you awarded me the military merit, you told me to be neither arrogant in victory nor discouraged in defeat, and to win honor through hard work. I've always remembered that."
"Haha, okay."
Tao Ruichang admires energetic young people. Although he doesn't know Chen Mo in this life, a person's character will not change.
There is a reason why the two of them got together in their previous lives.
Guessing the purpose of the two leaders' visit, Chen Mo glanced at Lin Yanhua standing next to him and said with full energy: "Chief, I know why you came to see me."
"Oh? Really?"
This time, the person who answered the call was not Tao Ruichang, but the director of the military district's training department at the division level.
Lin Yanhua was a soldier who had made a name for himself in the military district during his first private period. He looked at Chen Mo in front of him with interest and said with a smile, "Then tell me about it."
"yes."
Chen Mo took a deep breath, saluted again, and then said, "Commander, the Army Academy wants to conduct an experiment in informationized warfare, and the experiment requires the establishment of a training base."
"The commander is asking whether our military region should strive for the location of this training base, correct?"
Hearing this.
Tao Ruichang has not shown much yet. After all, he was the one who recommended Chen Mo for promotion and he knows this young man quite well.
I also read the letter Chen Mo wrote before he joined the army and did some research.
This insight is not uncommon.
But Lin Yanhua frowned in shock. To be honest, it was not a pleasant feeling for a colonel to have his thoughts guessed by a cadet.
But Chen Mo didn't care whether he felt good or not, he just said to himself: "Commander, I know what you are worried about."
"Our 63rd Army has few armored units, so the 38th Army seems to be better suited for this experiment."
"But Commander, I'm sure you've read the conclusions of information warfare, right?"
In response to Chen Mo's question, Tao Ruichang just nodded without saying much.
After all, the confidentiality level of this thing is still very high at the moment.
Lin Yanhua did not respond. His level was not high enough and he had never seen it.
However, ever since the Gulf War, there has been a strong demand for informatization in the country, and he does know something about it.
"Commander, modern warfare must be based on a model of unit cooperation. If non-commissioned officers do not understand the specific functions and coordination methods of other units, their combat effectiveness will definitely be limited."
"Command is something that the academy can never fully give you. It's a natural talent."
"The casualty rate for grassroots officers during war is very high. Currently, a standard grassroots company has only seven officers: the company commander, deputy company commander, instructor, deputy instructor, and three platoon leaders."
"If three out of seven men were killed in battle, it would deal a significant blow to the company's command system. If five were killed, combat effectiveness would plummet to zero. If all were killed, it would mean the unit would lose its ability to organize and fight effectively."
"This is all because the non-commissioned officers don't understand the specific functions of other units. The information-based training base can solve this problem. The instructors in the past were all veterans of the Army Academy."
"Even if we only send a small number of people there, putting aside the reasons for future experiments, many veterans in our grassroots companies who have not been promoted but have command capabilities will have their abilities discovered through training."
"What they have learned can further strengthen the command system's resilience to risks in the event of a future war, even if it serves as a supplementary command mechanism."
"Whichever unit they join in the future, they will be able to increase the combat effectiveness of their unit by at least 30%."
"Commander, this data is impressive."
Chen Mo spoke a little hurriedly.
Tao Ruichang became more and more surprised as he listened. He guessed that the young man might talk about the importance of informatization and also guessed that he would mention future development.
However, I didn't expect that this guy would use the importance of training grassroots non-commissioned officers as a starting point.
Old Man Tao understood what Chen Mo meant.
That is the training base, which should not only be built on the territory of the 63rd Army, but also actively encourage registration.
Regardless of other things, a 30% increase in combat effectiveness during wartime is not a number that can be ignored.
After pondering for a while, Tao Ruichang nodded: "I understand what you mean."
"Let's go. Now, it's time to negotiate terms with the old guys from your academy."
After saying that, Old Man Tao opened the car door and sat in the back seat without anyone else's help.
Chen Mo was hesitating whether to follow.
Lin Yanhua, who was standing next to him, pulled him aside and said with a smile, "What are you still standing there for?"
"We accept your suggestion."
"Come on, go over and listen to how those old guys arrange the details of this training."
"yes!"
Hearing that he could go too, Chen Mo excitedly opened the passenger door and plopped into the car.
It's time for me to perform again, so I have to do it well.
What's more, this time is different from the past, this time it is implementation.
The meaning is different.
