...People are generals of the army. Pei Chengyi is naturally more concerned about the construction of the army. Six

During the Indian War, the Republic Army had an old main force, equivalent to the Tianyi combat brigade, the Liyi Artillery Brigade and the Liyi Support Brigade, with a total force exceeding Tianwan. After the Indian War, the Army took the lead in disarmament and reorganized according to new standards, that is, only the old combat brigade, the old artillery brigade and the old support brigade, and the total force was reorganized, and the functions and organization of three types of combat troops were adjusted.

The functions of the combat brigade have not changed much, and they are still the main combat troops. In the past, according to different natures, the number of people in each combat brigade was between the foe. For example, the total strength of the airborne brigade was the Tunao people, the Airborne brigade was the Bi people, the Infantry brigade was the Bi people, the Infantry brigade was the Bi people, the Infantry brigade was the Station Knife, the Armored Brigade was the Huokou people, and the Armored Brigade was the Sunbasket. After the adaptation, first of all, the types of combat brigades were greatly reduced, leaving only the Airborne brigade, the Infantry brigade and the Armored Brigade. Secondly, the organization scale was greatly enhanced, and the total strength of the airborne brigade was the Qiuyao people, the Infantry brigade was the Ying people; finally, the professional functional forces of the combat brigade were greatly enhanced. The non-combatants of each brigade accounted for about % of the total force. From this, it can be seen that the adaptation of the combat brigade had only one purpose: to enhance independent combat capabilities.

The functions of the artillery brigade have undergone great changes. It not only requires traditional artillery support tasks, but also requires other fire cover tasks, such as providing field air defense protection for combat troops, and even tactical intelligence support tasks. Overall, the main mission of the artillery brigade is to perform tasks that do not require combat brigades and support brigades cannot complete, and provide various direct combat support for combat troops. In terms of organization, the artillery brigade adopts a relatively flexible organization method, that is, there are only basic troops in peacetime, and only reinforcement troops will be organized according to combat needs in wartime. Generally speaking, "the number of thugs in each artillery brigade is established. The number of old artillery battalions in each brigade is determined by the number of command channels of the artillery support command center.

If the command system is upgraded, it can be incorporated into more artillery battalions and 6 air defense battalions. The Tactical Intelligence Battalion is actually a special force that follows the combat troops or a special reconnaissance force sent by the tactical headquarters and the logistical support battalion, making the total force exceed the Blademan. In fact, no artillery brigade will take into account several aspects at the same time, because no combat unit can be fully covered. Even if the battlefield situation is harsh and needs to be fully covered, the commander should first consider deploying more artillery brigades instead of putting all eggs in one basket. In this way, the combat organization of the artillery brigade often focuses on a certain aspect, and the total force is controlled by the left and right of the Concao people, and at most it will not exceed four people.

Relatively speaking, the adaptation work of the support brigade is the highlight.

According to traditional definition, the support brigade is a logistics brigade, which is specifically responsible for non-combat tasks. In fact, the primary responsibility of the support brigade is also to be responsible for non-combat tasks other than operations and direct support for operations. However, compared with tradition, the adapted support brigade pays more attention to cooperative combat capabilities.

To put it simply, the support brigade has moved a lot forward.

During combat operations, the combat brigade must be the combat brigade, followed by the electromagnetic cannon with a range of hundreds of kilometers, and after the large-scale equipment of the armed forces of the artillery brigade, the artillery brigade will often be deployed backwards and no longer charge with the combat brigade, and then the support brigade will be behind. In combat, the combat brigade will first attack the enemy under the cover of the artillery brigade and other fire support troops, and occupy the enemy's positions. After clearing the remaining enemies, the combat brigade will stop advancing and rest for a short time.

At the same time, the support brigade provides supplies and then launches an attack. According to the new organization method, the support brigade will follow the battle travel, and generally achieve one-to-one fixed-point guarantee. More importantly, if necessary, for example, if sufficient offensive intensity is needed, and the offensive operation cannot be stopped, the combat brigade will no longer be responsible for the task of clearing away the remaining enemies. The support brigade will clean and control the battlefield, and provide guarantees for combat effectiveness.

There is no doubt that the support brigade is the power multiplier of the combat forces.

With the addition of combat functions, the status of the support brigade has increased rapidly. Not to mention anything else, in general, there will be at least thugs and combat battalions in each support brigade, and even several combat battalions can be equipped when necessary. Because the support brigade is deployed in front and may encounter the enemy at any time, the weapon equipment of non-combatants has also been strengthened. To this end, the Republic Army invested billions of billions to purchase individual self-defense weapons for non-combatants of the old support brigade. This is the only new infantry weapon purchased by the Army during the third military reform.

It can be seen from this that the support brigade has actually become a quasi-combat force.

According to the latest combat codes formulated by the General Staff at the beginning of the four teams, when adopting a one-to-one fixed-point support method, the support brigade has the obligation to provide additional troops to the combat brigade. That is to say, when the battle is fierce, if the replenished combat personnel cannot be obtained in time, the combat brigade can borrow people from the support brigade. Because the combat brigade itself is a type of combat force, and the limited access rights are obtained on the battlefield, the support brigade must obey the command of the combat brigade. In fact, the brigade commanders of the combat brigade are generally brigade generals, while the brigade commanders of the support brigade and artillery brigade are mostly

From this we can see that when an emergency occurs, the resources of the support brigade are unconditionally used. "The organization method is to use the resources of the support brigade in the scale of the thugs. Although it seems that the front-line combatants in the "combat unit" only have one-third of the total force, that is, among the 200,000 main troops, only about 70,000 are combatants, and the combat effectiveness of the Republic Army will be greatly reduced, according to the deduction results of the General Staff, the new organization system can maximize the combat brigades of the Republic Army. To be precise, the offensive ability

.

Because no one believes that the 70,000 combat troops are comparable to the old field army, the army officers and soldiers, especially senior generals, are very dissatisfied with the new organizational system. Some even publicly declared that Xiang Yinghui, who was born in the special forces, is turning the Republic Army into the largest special forces in the world.

Mu Yong doubted that this sentence was definitely not praising Xiang Yinghui.

In fact, in addition to worrying about the decline in combat effectiveness, the biggest worry of the army generals is that they are not at risk of their position. You must know that there were old commanders before the change, and only old "combat units after the adaptation." In other words, even if the level is transferred, there will be commanders who will "unemployed". Because the entire command system is slimming down, and the next chief of staff from the navy, it is difficult for the four additional commanders to get promotion. To put it bluntly, there are four commanders who must retire before reaching the maximum service period. There is no doubt that even the worst-working commanders do not want to retire before they have to retire. In any case, as the commander of the army who commands tens of thousands of officers and soldiers, he can be regarded as a leader of one side and must be a very enterprising person. For these soldiers who are about to fall, retirement is equivalent to taking away their life goals. No one is willing to retire, and the direct result is that no one supports the new organization system.

Xiang Yinghui adopted various strategies to break through this problem.

Strictly speaking, Xiang Yinghui took action before implementing military reforms.

Shortly after the end of the Indian War, Xiang Yinghui held a high-level army meeting. After announcing that the third military reform was about to be launched, he "talk about heart" with the old commander. Judging from what happened later, at this time, Xiang Yinghui made a wish to Ling Yunxiao, Jiang Wancheng, Luo Shaopeng, Tu Ziqi and Sai Biao and other major generals to ensure that they can continue to serve as commanders at the level of the army commander after the reform, that is, the commander of the "combat unit". In other words, this

Some people opposed the reform of the staffing reform in the early stages of the reform, which must have been intentional arrangements by Xiang Yinghui. The purpose was nothing more than to take this opportunity to allow a group of elderly lieutenant generals such as Dong Chengfang, Tang Yinglong, Qu Maokang and Cai Suikang to retire, leaving room for development for young people. In order to appease these lieutenant generals, Xiang Yinghui not only gave them enough honors, but also promoted them to army generals one after another. In other words, they were able to obtain the highest military rank that soldiers could get in peacetime.

Dealing with generals is only one aspect. To promote reform, all officers and soldiers of the army must be convinced.

At the end of the year, Tian was the first "combat unit". After completing the training of the Jin army, Xiang Yinghui personally arranged a high-intensity confrontation exercise to let the "combat unit" commanded by Ling Yunxiao fight against the army commanded by Fu Weimin. Because the "combat unit" was for attack from the day it was born, Ling Yunxiao attacked and Fu Wei defended democratically during the exercise.

Although this makes people feel unfair, after all, the Jiaojun is also a unit that is good at attacking, but not many people are optimistic about the "combat unit" because the strength of the thugs is twice that of the "combat unit" and much more armored forces. In the case of defense-oriented, they are confident enough to withstand the "combat unit" attack.

Is this true result of the sacrificial experience?

According to relevant news reports at the time, during the exercise that lasted only for an hour, the "combat unit" defeated the Jiujun with no suspense. Although the report did not mention the specific situation, such as how the "combat unit" won and where the Huojun lost, the "no suspense" is enough to show the problem. It is not that the officers and soldiers of the Guijun did not do their best, but that they could not defeat the "combat unit".

It was this exercise that solved the main problems of Army reform.

In the next few years, the remaining combat units were formed one after another and received a full set of training.

By the end of the Fantasy Year, the old combat units had complete combat power.

Because according to the provisions of the new constitution, the main army forces will no longer bear other responsibilities other than war, so the old jin. All combat units are deployed in the army bases originally away from the city. Four combat units are deployed overseas. The first combat units commanded by Ling Yunxiao are all deployed in Lahore, Pakistan. The second combat units commanded by Luo Shaopeng are all deployed in Visakhapatnam, India. The third combat units commanded by Li Jixian are deployed in Sihanoukville, Cambodia. The fourth combat units commanded by Tuziqi are deployed in Naha, Ryukyu, and 6 combat units are deployed in the fifth battle commanded by Jiang Wancheng in China.

The fighting units were deployed in Liaoning Province, the sixth combat unit commanded by Sai Bingbiao was deployed in Henan Province, the seventh combat unit commanded by Shang Xueyun was deployed in Taiwan Province, the eighth combat unit commanded by Wang Xueping was deployed in Guangdong Province, the ninth combat unit commanded by Fu Weimin was deployed in Xinjiang Autonomous Region, and the tenth combat unit commanded by Li Dongshi was deployed in four provinces. In the past, the domestic forces that needed to be completed by the field army were handed over to the armed police force. For example, the important task of guarding the capital was related to the single combat trumpet. The organization of the Jiujun was revoked since then. In fact, the mantle of the Cong Army had been inherited by the ninth combat unit.

This change reflects the main idea of ​​the third military reform, namely, to improve the professionalization of the regular army.

For the Republic, which has a population of Gangbang and a territory of tens of millions of square kilometers, there are not many regular troops to support. If even the troops of 10,000 cannot prepare for the war, the combat effectiveness of the Republic's Army must have been problematic. As early as the Peninsula War, the Republic's military system was challenged. After the first battle, the main troops were seriously injured and continued to replenish combat personnel. The combat personnel drawn from the second line could not adapt to the battlefield at all, resulting in several field troops, including the army, having to spend more time resting. The second military reform after this particularly emphasized the combat capability of regular troops and improved the training level of the second line troops, which enabled the Republic's Army to exert amazing combat effectiveness during the Indian War. However, just improving the training level is an emergency response to the symptoms but not the root cause. To fundamentally solve the problem, we must start from organization.

As the backbone of the army, the quality of the main force of Liwan must be guaranteed.

In the words of Xiang Yinghui when explaining the importance of the third military reform to the army officers and soldiers: the main combat forces of Liwan must ensure that under any circumstances, win a regional war of any degree except the world war. If this goal is not achieved, the Republic's Army will not be considered the world's number one army. The Republic's reform will not be successful and more in-depth reforms must be carried out.

Regardless of whether the Zhenghe National Army is considered the number one army in the world, it is not too high to use tens of thousands of troops to win any intense regional war.

To use external comments, if the Republic is not in a hurry to win and uses its troops more reasonably, during the Indian War, it can defeat the Indian army even if it faces thousands of miles. Of course, the prerequisite is that the third military reform will be carried out in advance and all results will be achieved before the outbreak of the Indian War.

As a major power army, it is definitely not enough to have the main force of Blade Wan.

Although in the third military reform, the army replaced the original field army with "combat units", this is by no means a simple replacement. It is an improvement of overall combat effectiveness. According to the reform plan proposed by Xiang Yinghui, the second-line troops that are accompanied by the "combat units", that is, "mobile singles" are the corresponding troops of the original field army. In other words, in addition to the elite personnel of the old field army, the remaining approximately ten thousand officers and soldiers became the second-line troops of the army, and the original second-line troops were reorganized into reserve troops. Because the main responsibility of the "mobile units" is to maintain domestic security, they need to bear some social obligations.

For example, guarding important military facilities, military bases, strategic warehouses and other high-value strategic facilities, and participating in disaster relief, firefighting and other social activities when necessary. The most important thing is that "mobile units" evolved directly from the field army. Apart from the number changes, the organization system has not changed much, and even the command system is exactly the same as before. Therefore, when necessary, "mobile units" can perform combat tasks together with "combat units", or provide soldiers for "combat units". To put it simply, "mobile units" are the strategic reserves of "combat units" and are an indispensable part of the Republic's Army.

The new organization system gives the Republic Army more flexible combat capabilities.

In fact, it is precisely because more flexible combat capabilities are needed to adjust the organization.

In Xiang Yinghui's words: Before the Indian War, the Republic's Army had been fighting at home, and often had very clear goals, made sufficient preparations for the war, and could rely on the huge and complete transportation system of the local area, so it was invincible in battle. After the Indian War, the Republic's Army had to go out of its home and go to a farther place to fight, and could no longer rely on its local infrastructure. It had to have stronger independent combat capabilities and strategic mobility capabilities to defeat more powerful enemies in extremely harsh environments.

From this we can see that "fighting single" is indeed the most suitable ground force for future wars.

In addition to its very strong independent combat capabilities, the strategic maneuverability of combat units is also extraordinary. Under standard equipment, a combat unit has a force of about 20,000 people. Various types of weapons and equipment form basic combat power within the time of the continuous combat thug, and all combat power within the time of the task. If a small old transport aircraft is required for air transport, the combat brigade can be sent to a war zone 2 kilometers away within the hour, and all combat forces and combat materials will be airlifted within the week.

There is no doubt that the strategic maneuverability of "fighting single" is strong enough.

In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, in addition to starting the organization, we also have to start with equipment.

Strictly speaking, there should be what kind of equipment you have to have. If the equipment cannot keep up, even if the organization is perfect, it will not be able to have strong enough combat power.
