Chapter 245 The future commander of the 1st Blue Army Brigade!

Chapter 245 The future commander of the First Blue Army Brigade!
Chen Jun's training rhythm was well-organized, and he divided the entire third phase of training into two parts.

They are basic training and tactical training respectively!
The first part is the basic training for each branch of the military, because the companies and soldiers formed are recruited through targeted recruitment and they already have the corresponding skill and technical foundation.

Therefore, the first part of basic training only took two months under Chen Jun's plan.

When it was the beginning of February 1998, five days before the Chinese New Year, the first part of the basic training officially came to an end.

In order to verify the results of the first part of the training, Chen Jun specially organized an internal assessment.

A combined forces force is composed of multiple arms or specialized soldiers. Its basic training subjects are rich and varied, and the assessment is also quite time-consuming.

In order to complete the assessment before the New Year, Chen Jun made special plans for the assessment.

Needless to say, the first thing is that it must be an assessment of physical fitness.

It includes long-distance running, weighted cross-country running, obstacle running and other events, aiming to improve soldiers' endurance, strength, speed, agility, etc.

Physical fitness is the foundation of a soldier, no matter what branch of the military he is.

Then comes the core shooting training, which involves both artillery and armored troops.

The subjects involved in the assessment include but are not limited to the shooting of various firearms such as pistols, rifles, submachine guns, sniper rifles, etc.; different target types such as fixed targets, moving targets, hidden and visible targets, etc.; and training in various shooting postures such as prone, standing, kneeling, and moving in a vehicle, etc.

No matter what kind of soldiers they are, as long as they are on the battlefield, they may encounter unexpected situations and need to use firearms for self-defense or offense.

It is not necessary to be proficient in all weapons, but at least you need to master the shooting of a pistol.

The results must be excellent!

The second is basic training in personal tactics, which is also listed as a regular assessment item.

Assessment items include but are not limited to combat movements, such as leaping, crawling, rolling, etc.; as well as the use of terrain, such as finding cover and concealment in mountains, jungles, towns and other environments.

Personal tactical skills are one of the core subjects, which can not only greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of a single soldier, but also maximize the soldier's survivability.

As a unit capable of fighting independently, the combined battalion will have higher requirements for each soldier.

You must be a soldier of the special reconnaissance company. When necessary, you can climb onto a tank and become a tank soldier, or get into a gunner by getting into a gun vehicle.

Even if the skills do not reach professional excellence, at least they can be basically qualified.

Tank soldiers and artillerymen can become qualified infantry soldiers after getting off their vehicles and can play a role in special terrain.

During the Operation Sharp Sword mountain exercise, the 702nd Regiment was forced to abandon its vehicles and go into battle due to terrain restrictions.

At that time, it had a great impact on the combat effectiveness of the 702nd Regiment, and Chen Jun did not want this to happen again.

General routine basic items need to be practiced, and the essential professional subjects of each branch of the military need to be practiced even more, and the assessment standard is based on excellence as the bottom line.

For example, in the assessment items of the armored company, tank driving and tank shooting are the two core aspects.

The former's tank driving subject requires the driver to master the skills of driving a tank flexibly in various terrains and complex conditions;
In the tank shooting assessment, it is also required to be able to shoot quickly and accurately at different distances, different types of targets and in different terrains.

Accuracy shooting while moving is of utmost importance and is regarded by Chen Jun as a strict test subject.

If a tank can fire accurately while moving, its combat effectiveness can be at least doubled compared to when it stops to aim and shoot.

Whether in offensive and offensive operations or in confrontation with enemy armored forces.

Mobile shooting can have an absolute advantage!

As for the artillery assessment of the artillery and air defense company, since they all use mechanized self-propelled artillery, they can fire as soon as the vehicle stops, without the need for complicated gun mounting.

The assessment content is mainly about artillery operation, covering the processes of aiming, loading, and firing artillery;

In addition to artillery reconnaissance and command, the troops must learn to use various reconnaissance methods to obtain target information and conduct firepower command and coordination.

Only in this way can we suppress the enemy on the battlefield and gain absolute firepower advantage.

The air defense artillery is mainly assessed on the operation of air defense weapons, such as the operation and use of anti-aircraft guns and air defense missiles; reconnaissance and interception of air targets, etc.

Search for aerial targets through radar and other equipment, and intercept and protect your own targets.

This is the main task of the air defense unit!

The Special Reconnaissance Company is a pilot combined battalion and currently the only infantry combat unit. It undertakes heavier tasks and has more and more diverse assessment subjects.

Including but not limited to infantry squad tactics, involving offensive, defensive, reconnaissance and other tasks;

The infantry trains in coordination with other arms, such as armored forces and artillery.

The most core and critical thing is to undertake reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance tasks in front of and behind enemy lines, and try to obtain the intelligence that we need most.

This task was previously handled by the spearhead squad, but will be handed over to the special operations platoon in the future.

After all, an excellent reconnaissance squad can support a company, but it is basically impossible to support a battalion. It must be a platoon-level unit to be competent.

The remaining logistics support company and electronic countermeasure company are both logistics auxiliary units.

Their assessment items are more numerous and complex.

For example, the battlefield supply of the kitchen squad, the fuel supply of the fuel squad, the basic support of the engineering platoon, etc., are all related to the upper limit of the combat effectiveness of the combined battalion.

The electronic warfare company is the "gatekeeper", and electronic warfare on future battlefields will be very fierce.

This includes communications interceptions that have already occurred, as well as communications assurance, future small drone strikes, interference and interception of enemy communications, and so on.

These are all crucial subjects, and Chen Junding’s assessment requirements are also an excellent start.

The assessment is in full swing.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

Thanks to the efficiency of the training program formulated by Chen Jun and the high morale of the soldiers, not only did they successfully complete the first part of the basic skills assessment before the New Year, but the final assessment results were also excellent.

What Sun Dongping failed to accomplish in four months, Chen Jun accomplished in just two months.

The gap between the two sides is obvious at a glance.

The Spring Festival is one of the most important festivals in China, and New Year’s Eve has a special significance. The family will get together on this day and celebrate the New Year happily.

As a soldier, one must sacrifice one's own family for the sake of the greater good. Going home to reunite with family for the New Year has almost become a luxury.

In order to make up for the soldiers' shortcomings in this regard and let them feel the warmth and love among everyone, a grand banquet is held on this day.

The special force, the Pilot Combined Battalion, has also not forgotten this tradition.

Gao Cheng sent the steward out to do the shopping in advance, just to prepare a sumptuous dinner for all the soldiers in the battalion. Each class had a separate table, and the table was set with six dishes and one soup, which was a luxurious standard.

The lack of dining tables did not affect them at all. A piece of cloth was spread on the ground, and the chickens, ducks, fish and meat in basins were all placed on the cloth.

The ten soldiers from each class sat around the table, creating a lively and festive atmosphere.

Don’t mention that washbasins are sometimes used for washing feet. Isn’t it unhygienic to use them to hold food at this time? Serving food in washbasins is the biggest feature of banquets in the army.

You can’t get anything you want to eat outside, and after retiring from the army, I always grin when I think about it.

The atmosphere of a troop dinner.

It really makes people savor it for a lifetime.

It is a pure emotion that cannot be felt in society at all, and only exists in the army.

Besides.

The big green stick even brought back several trucks, and hundreds of cases of beer were piled up in the canteen of the cooking platoon, which looked quite visually impactful. However, in a reinforced battalion of several hundred people, there was actually not much to share.

At most, one person can drink two or three bottles.

For the troops who always drink liquor one cup at a time and never take a sip, two or three bottles are just for gargling.

If you want to drink to your heart's content, each person should have at least half a bottle.

Gao Cheng also knew that everyone did not drink enough, and now the task was arduous and he could not let everyone drink to their satisfaction, so he could only make a promise to the soldiers during the dinner.

As long as this acceptance can be passed smoothly, everyone will have a good drink.

There is plenty of meat and wine.

Even if there is not enough funding, Gao Cheng will cover it.

After Gao Cheng, the battalion commander, said this, the atmosphere of the banquet was completely ignited, and the morale of the soldiers was also raised to the peak.

After a little drinking on New Year’s Eve, the whole camp had a rare day off on New Year’s Day.

All the soldiers in the battalion can relax on this day, play basketball or football together on the playground, or play cards together in the dormitory.

Instructor Ma Tianxiang even came up with a surprising strategy, demonstrating his advantages in leading troops.

We went to the town in advance to purchase a batch of supplies, including instant noodles, sausages, biscuits, drinks and other snacks, and organized a lantern riddle guessing activity on the first day of the new year.

The logistics support company was asked to send out twenty people on errands, and a lantern riddle party was held in the battalion headquarters' large playground early in the morning.

The food is not expensive, but the atmosphere is full.

It attracted more than three hundred fighters, who trained themselves by doing 100 push-ups, 200 sit-ups, 20 horizontal bar reps, and so on.

Each group will receive a guessing ticket, and each person can receive up to five tickets.

The soldiers can not only exercise their bodies, but also feel the atmosphere of the New Year, receive small gifts, and feel the care and warmth of the battalion. The overall morale and cohesion are greatly improved.

It can also help to eliminate the emotions that have been accumulated in your heart due to the high-intensity training in the past few months in the midst of laughter and joy.

It can be said that it accomplishes multiple things with one stone!
The joy brought by the Spring Festival holiday is very strong, and the happy time seems to pass very quickly.

After a short day's holiday, the combined battalion plunged into intensive training again and began the final sprint for the final acceptance.

The next two months were the second part of the training, during which Chen Jun carried out professional synthetic tactical training.

The first part is multi-service coordinated combat training.

This is the foundation of the combined forces' combined tactics. Chen Jun needs to organize multiple arms such as armored forces, infantry, artillery, communications and logistics to conduct cross-joint offensive or defensive combat training.

This allows all arms units under the combined battalion to continuously improve their coordination and cooperation with each other through this continuous cross-joint training.

The ultimate goal is to be able to integrate operations at will and utilize various contract tactics.

Once all units are able to achieve the most basic integrated combat in a basic environment, we will then move on to tactical training in complex environments.

Conduct tactical application and combat operations training in complex terrains such as mountains, jungles, deserts, and cities, and under adverse weather conditions.

The base is located on the Loess Plateau, where there is terrain that can barely replace mountains and deserts.

However, in special environments such as jungles and cities, the time left for acceptance is too short and there is no time to pull the troops out for training.

We can only wait until the acceptance is passed and then we can pull the troops out for training.

In this multi-terrain environment training, in addition to regular training, Chen Jun also added confrontation drills to improve the quality of training.

By simulating actual combat environments and assuming blue army targets, red-blue confrontation drills are conducted.

Although it was just a virtual red-blue confrontation drill, the hypothetical blue army was played by Chen Jun, and he alone represented the entire blue army.

Exercises are based on data simulation and calculation, so it is completely possible for one person to serve as the blue team.

It just takes some brainpower.

Usually one person simply can't do it.

Fortunately, Chen Jun has an incredible brain calculation ability. His brain seems to be comparable to a computer. Even if he needs to imagine hundreds of people fighting in his mind at the same time, he can still command flexibly.

The Red Army led by Gao Cheng fought against Chen's army. Under the attack of Chen's army's terrifying combat capability, the combat capability and tactical level of the troops improved very quickly.

It's like you want to learn fighting.

If you fight with a world fighting champion, even though you will be beaten every time, your level will definitely improve much faster than if you fight with street thugs.

The soldiers' combat capabilities need to be improved, and logistical command and communications also need to be trained.

The first is command training.

The combat command capabilities of commanders at all levels, including the ability to formulate combat plans, organize combat coordination, and command troop operations, all need to be trained and improved.

Abandon all their traditional combat thinking and replace it with a new type of synthetic combat concept.

This is very important for commanders.

Besides.

There is also communication training for the electronic countermeasure company, including but not limited to training in various communication means such as wired communication, wireless communication, and satellite communication.

It can ensure smooth command and communication during combat and also attack and harass enemy communications.

Logistics support training is also very important.

It includes training in material supply, equipment maintenance, medical rescue, etc., to ensure that the troops have sufficient material and equipment support during combat.

Train a large number of equipment maintenance personnel, improve the ability to diagnose, repair and maintain various weapons and equipment, and improve the equipment's availability and deployment rate.

The advantage of a combined battalion is that it has multiple arms, but the training of supervisors will also become more complicated.

Gao Cheng saw Chen Jun leading the troops in training, making every part well organized, paying attention to every detail of combat and logistics.

He is really convinced!
"Old Chen, this is all thanks to you. You are really like Sun Wukong, you can transform into anything. If it were me, even if you broke me into four pieces, I would not be able to handle these tasks."

Gao Cheng would sigh every time he saw Chen Jun and couldn't help but praise Chen Jun every time.

Also because Chen Jun is so outstanding and everything he does is great, people can't help but praise him. Gao Cheng has run out of words to praise him.

I almost don’t know how to praise it!

The officers from the battalion who were airdropped in were also very impressed after seeing Chen Jun's ability to lead and train troops.

Especially Man Guangzhi, who had just graduated from military academy and was extremely studious.

After seeing the abilities displayed by Chen Jun and the various subtleties in contract tactical training, he was completely conquered by Chen Jun.

He willingly became Chen Jun's little follower.

Although he is Chen Jun's superior in terms of position, he puts aside his pride without any worries and becomes a humble good student, following Chen Jun around happily every day.

Like a sponge dried in the sun, he frantically learned all kinds of new knowledge from Chen Jun, which he had been extremely eager to learn but had never been able to access before.

It is precisely this spirit of not being ashamed to ask questions and this thirst for knowledge learning attitude.

This laid a solid foundation for Man Guangzhi to become the famous and renowned commander of the First Blue Army Brigade both at home and abroad.
