Chapter 129 The knife of military reform has fallen!! (Two chapters in one!)
The first platoon has the most complicated functional tasks, while the remaining two platoons are relatively simpler.

of course.

Simple does not mean easy.

The second platoon was integrated into three tactical squads, each with different weapons and equipment configurations, which meant that each squad's mission would be different.

As a squad configured for tactical execution, the second phase training tasks of each squad are similar.

No matter it is the sniper squad for precision strikes, the anti-aircraft squad for air defense, or the anti-tank squad for anti-armor, all they need to do is practice their "weapons" well.

It is easy to practice, but difficult to master.

Not to mention the squad with a tactical title. The soldiers in the squad need to be able to fight independently and coordinate perfectly with each other to unleash the power of integrated tactics.

It is necessary to fight alone and in groups.

It is extremely difficult.

Therefore, during the entire second phase of training, the tasks of the three tactical classes were the same.

That is, according to the training lesson plan provided by Chen Jun, we must improve individual combat capabilities as much as possible and also improve the team coordination capabilities of the entire class.

The sniper squad's coordinated combat training mainly focuses on coordinated precision sniping.

The coordinated combat training of the anti-tank squad mainly focuses on integrated attack and scoring.

The coordinated combat training of the air defense squad mainly focuses on various air defense formations.

Through different coordinated combat training, the tactical squad is built into a single dragon and the regiment is a group of tigers, which can switch quickly and flexibly at any time.

If the tactical squad is equivalent to assassins, they only need to quickly enter the battlefield and accurately kill their prey.

The last three rows - the firepower row, are equivalent to the "long-range group attack units" of the Seventh Synthetic Steel Company, and need to serve as turret output in the rear.

When the 7th Steel Company is carrying out any mission, whenever there is any need for long-range firepower strikes, the fire platoon needs to be able to respond at any time and carry out accurate strikes.

Therefore, firepower is ranked in the second stage of training, which mainly focuses on long-range precision firepower strikes.

The training content includes but is not limited to rapid maneuvers, transfer operations, camouflage and silence, rapid deployment, targeted strikes and concealed evacuation, etc.

to be honest.

The core of training is the same as that of the tactical platoon, which is to build one's own skills to the extreme.

Within the range of artillery strike, the first-shot hit rate can reach over 90 percent, and the reaction speed to concentrated artillery attack is within three minutes.

After completing the long-range artillery strike mission, the transfer can be completed within two minutes.

Be able to fight and run, come and go without a trace, making it impossible for the enemy to capture your position and counterattack, thus ensuring your own sufficient safety.

It doesn't sound that difficult.

In reality, it is very difficult to achieve this standard.

For example, a 100-caliber mortar plus shells weighs nearly kilograms. It is necessary to move it from the vehicle within three minutes, then find a location to lay the base plate, set up the barrel and support arm, adjust the shooting parameters and fire.

It takes an extremely experienced gunner to complete so many actions within three minutes.

An experienced gunner is not born; he is born through hundreds or thousands of repeated trainings, continuous learning and continuous improvement.

It also requires a large number of artillery shells as a foundation, and becoming a veteran gunner through continuous firing.

Only by firing real shells can you develop a sense of artillery.

Ordinary companies do not have so many artillery shells, so a company can fire dozens of rounds every day to practice its basic training.

Fortunately, the 7th Steel Company is the fattest company in the entire regiment, and it has the strong support of the regiment commander Wang Qingrui.

The problem of artillery shell consumption did not become a problem.

Under Chen Jun's efficient and busy command, the entire company quickly entered the rhythm of the second stage and began to hone itself in an orderly manner.

The training time seemed to pass very slowly, but in fact it passed very quickly.

After other companies enter October, a year's work has basically been completed, veterans are about to retire, new recruits are about to join the army, the company enters a rest period, and life begins to become easier.

The soldiers of the 7th Steel Company worked enthusiastically, turning the previous rest period into an intensive training period.

I worked from late autumn to the cold winter without realizing it.

As another batch of new recruits entered the recruit camp, they began their three-month recruit training with beautiful aspirations and dreams for the army.

New recruits such as Xu Sanduo, Chengcai and Bai Tiejun finally received the rank of corporal and became veterans.

Entering the next stage of military career.

The second phase of synthetic training for the 7th Steel Company has also come to an end.

In order to verify the results of the second phase of training and whether they had met the standards set at the beginning, Gao Cheng specially organized an overall assessment of the entire company.

There are no common subjects in this year-round assessment. Instead, each class’s unique skills and techniques are tested.

Class one will take exams on subjects related to logistics support, Class two and three will take exams on field simulated reconnaissance, Class four will take exams on individual and coordinated sniper targets, Class five will take exams on rocket launchers hitting moving targets, and Class six will take exams on air defense missiles hitting balloon targets.

The weapons of the third row include vehicle-mounted artillery and mortars, so the assessment is divided into two different types: concealed artillery attack in the rear and artillery cover in the front line.

Because each class has different assessment subjects, and they are all live-fire assessments.

Therefore, the preparation work needs to be more complex and meticulous.

Therefore, it took more than a week to complete the assessment of the skills and techniques trained by the nine squads in the second phase.

Fortunately, the acceptance results were very good and did not go in vain for Chen Jun’s hard work.

Gao Cheng saw the greatly transformed Steel Seventh Company. Although it had not yet completed the entire transformation, its combat effectiveness was already stronger than before. He couldn't stop smiling.

It was hard for him to imagine what kind of horrible monster the 7th Steel Company would become after the synthetic transformation.

How terrifying the combat power will be by then.

The other fourteen regular companies of the 702nd Regiment, plus a logistics support company, are now unaware that the th Steel Company is undergoing an evolution.

They would never have imagined that once the 7th Steel Company completed its evolution, its combat effectiveness would soar to heights they could not imagine.

The main attention of each of their companies is still on this year's new recruits camp.

Last year, it was the new recruit company led by Gao Cheng from the 7th Steel Company who picked out all the good soldiers, leaving the other companies without even a sip of soup.

The 7th Steel Company seemed to have taken advantage of this wave of gains and rose strongly in the mid-year competition.

This made the company commanders of other companies mistakenly believe that the 7th Steel Company had obtained a group of good soldiers because it had a company of new recruits.

The strongest recruit becoming a talent is an example!
That’s why we had such great gains last year. The rise of the 7th Steel Company was thanks to the company of new recruits.

Therefore, other company commanders are particularly concerned this year, and they are all ambitious to lead the new recruits, pick good soldiers, and take off like the Seventh Company.

In other words, they care too much about the recruit company and pay too much attention to it.

So much so that no one noticed the changes in the 7th Steel Company.

This also set the stage for the confrontational military exercise more than two months later, in which the 7th Steel Company swept across the wilderness.

what is interesting is……

There is another episode in the middle.

In order to compete for the qualification to lead a company of new recruits this year, the commanders of the fourteen regular companies were almost driven crazy and used all their personal connections.

If the regiment commander had not had to stand up in the end, I'm afraid these company commanders would have fought over it. They didn't realize that the rise of the 7th Steel Company had nothing to do with leading the recruit company, and in fact, it wouldn't have much impact if it didn't become successful.

Chen Jun is the core of the core!
……

With the perfect conclusion of the second phase of training, at the critical moment when the confrontation military exercise was about to begin, the third phase of training was launched against the clock.

Compared to the second stage where everyone plays their own game and polishes their own guns.

The third stage is the real "contract tactics"!
simply put.

In this crucial third phase of training, each class will evolve from playing their own games to cooperating with each other in training.

It is mainly the core spearhead reconnaissance company, which conducts simulated combat coordination training with other classes.

This is also the "essence" of contract tactics!
With less than three months left until the confrontation, Chen Jun made adjustments to the remaining time, leaving only the last month for integrated training for the entire company.

In the past month or so, the reconnaissance squad has conducted joint training with other squads one by one.

For example, let the reconnaissance squad cross the enemy's blockade line and infiltrate behind enemy lines to collect intelligence and information. If they encounter enemy snipers blocking a vital road, call the sniper squad to come and take inventory.

A sniper knows a sniper best.

The sniper squad's four professional sniper groups are deployed to conduct strict screening of key locations, or to lure out enemy snipers by some means.

After the sniper squad has eliminated the enemy snipers, the reconnaissance squad will cross the blockade to complete the mission.

If the sniper squad finds the enemy sniper's position but is unable to eliminate the enemy, they will report the position to the fire platoon.

The firepower platoon cooperates with the reconnaissance squad to eliminate the enemy through fixed-point artillery attacks.

No matter how awesome the sniper is.

They are also afraid of the truth that will blow from the sky.

Let's assume that the enemy sends out armored units to conduct a sweep search of the reconnaissance squad's location, attempting to find and kill the spearhead reconnaissance squad.

So at this critical moment, the anti-tank squad has to come out and cooperate.

By killing the enemy armored units and luring away the enemy support when necessary, we can clear the obstacles for the reconnaissance squad's forward reconnaissance.

Let’s assume that the enemy is aware of the ground pressure and sends a helicopter with thermal imaging to scan.

The reconnaissance squad would then have to call the air defense squad, and then complete the anti-infrared camouflage operation in the shortest possible time, waiting for the air defense squad to shoot down the enemy in the air.

Let's assume that the reconnaissance squad successfully infiltrates behind enemy lines and finds key enemy facilities and units.

For example, missile camps, command centers, logistics centers, etc.

When your main units are being tracked by the enemy, any movement may alert the enemy and you are unable to provide effective firepower to attack.

The reconnaissance squad also has to call the firepower platoon to complete its own reconnaissance and attack on the enemy.

Let's also assume that the reconnaissance squad is caught by the enemy's large country forces and cannot escape while returning after completing the mission. In this case, they will need to call on the fire platoon, sniper team, anti-tank team, etc. to go into battle together and provide cover for the reconnaissance squad to escape.

The main feature of contract warfare is the integration of multiple arms to make their functions as perfect as possible.

To achieve the combat effectiveness of one troop with multiple troop levels.

Unlike the traditional combat mode, when you encounter different enemies and are completely unable to deal with them by yourself, you can only call on friendly forces for support.

A lot of time will be wasted in this process, making the combat efficiency extremely inefficient.

The main focus of modern information warfare is efficiency.

Relying on his rich practical experience, Chen Jun has imagined no less than twenty hypothetical simulated battlefield scenarios like this.

By cooperating with other squads, various battlefield simulation trainings can be completed.

This is to enable the reconnaissance squad and other squads to develop a tacit understanding through training and further improve the efficiency and combat effectiveness of the operations.

It can also allow every squad of the 7th Steel Company to become familiar with various battlefield conditions without the need for actual combat.

So that in the subsequent confrontation exercises, no matter what tactics are implemented against the enemy or what problems are encountered along the way.

They are all able to react in the first time and think of effective tactics to counterattack.

"Platoon Leader Chen, I'm very curious. I feel that all these battlefield simulations are very real, not like something imagined out of thin air. And it's impossible for you to participate in actual combat. How did you do it?"

After experiencing Chen Jun's various bizarre simulation trainings that he could never have imagined, Gao Cheng felt admiration but also deep doubts.

If Chen Jun is already fifty years old this year and has participated in the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, then there will definitely be no problem at all.

But the problem is that Chen Jun had just graduated from military school and was only 22 years old. He had no practical experience, but he was able to come up with dozens of practical simulation scenarios a year without any repetition.

This matter is so weird that anyone would feel confused.

Facing Gao Cheng's puzzled look, Chen Jun naturally couldn't tell him that all the scenarios he had thought of were his actual combat experiences, which he had practiced in mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and had risked his life for.

The only reasonable explanation is to attribute it all to high IQ.

He explained that his favorite thing to do and hobby while studying in military school was to read articles and books related to the history of modern wars and contemporary warfare.

In particular, there have been a lot of research on self-defense against Vietnam, self-defense against India, the Iran-Iraq War and the Kuwait War.

Fortunately, I have a pretty good brain, and by taking a glimpse of the whole picture from a superficial perspective, I have gained a lot of inspiration and ideas from these war examples.

That is why we can deduce so many combat simulation scenarios for training without actual combat.

Chen Jun’s explanation is a bit far-fetched.

After all, Chen Jun's high IQ and the label of military genius have made him famous not only in the 702nd Regiment, but also in the entire division.

Under the huge halo of military genius, this tiny flaw was perfectly covered up.

Gao Cheng was more curious than questioning, so he just asked casually and completely believed Chen Jun's words. His final conclusion was to pat Chen Jun on the shoulder.

He said with both admiration and conviction: "No wonder the commander said you are a rare military genius in a century. Your brain... is really different."

"What's the difference? They all have two eyes, two nostrils, and one mouth."

Chen Jun deliberately used a joking way to lead the topic to a light-hearted level, which made Gao Cheng laugh out loud, and the matter passed.

As the classes cooperate with the reconnaissance class and as the simulated scenario training increases, the level of understanding between them becomes higher and higher.

Unknowingly, more than a month has passed, and there is only one month left before the confrontation military exercise.

Captain Wang, who was afraid that his personal identity would affect the progress of the synthetic transformation of the 7th Steel Company, could not help but call the 7th Steel Company to inquire about the progress of the synthetic transformation.

Captain Wang was worried that half a year was too short and the synthetic transformation could not be completed as scheduled.

After all, reorganizing an army is no small matter. Even a grassroots company at the lowest level is a troublesome matter that affects the entire body.

The main aspects involved are far from being covered by the three words "synthesis".

In particular, Captain Wang had previously attended the year-end work summary report meeting held by the division headquarters and received accurate news.

That is because some wrong new decisions were made and the process of military reform has now been accelerated again.

The group army has given a clear order to the division, that is, every regiment under the T division must select a company to carry out information-based military reform.

And the "Blue Army Examiner" has been arranged to conduct a "survey" of all units of the T Division this year.

Even though the 702nd Regiment won first place in the competition, they still couldn't escape.
