Chapter 1252: Changing Thoughts (Four Changes)

"Whoever told you about now, I'm talking about a change in strategic thinking, twenty or thirty years in the future. The direction of future development. As a commander, think strategically. Jing Hailin looked him up and down and said, "Old War, are you sure that the future war will not change, look at the US-Vietnam War, during the War of Liberation and the Korean War, we used the advantages of numbers and efficiency to defeat or at least draw, more technologically advanced opponents." Our crushing victory was to compensate for our numerical superiority in military technology relative to the superpowers. However, this thinking cannot stop at the war of liberation, and it is still based on the theory of tactics of the sea of people. ”

"But we've made progress in our thinking! It's not as bad as you say! Zhan Changsheng looked at him hesitantly.

"You're talking about large corps operations, and the strategy and tactics of mechanization are still stuck in the World War II period." Jing Hailin looked at the two of them and said, "Do you know why this strategy and tactics happened in Europe?" ”

"Of course I know this, in school I studied the war of the country." Ding Guoliang immediately said with high spirits, "Europe will produce the combat theory of mechanized corps, and it is in the tank blitzkrieg that Germany's mechanized corps has shown strong combat effectiveness. The blitzkrieg attack on Poland is a case in point.

At the beginning of World War II, Germany was advanced in terms of equipment and the command concept of generals, while other countries still played in the form of arranging troops, and also used cavalry, and the communication system was backward, so the speed of mechanized troops became a big key to victory. The German blitzkrieg and Lao Maozi's steamroller tactics were a model for the operation of large corps. ”

"Then why not in Asia?" Jing Hailin looked at the two of them with a slight smile.

"Needless to say? Asian countries are generally poor! We are millet plus rifles, we are all in the civil strife of the country, there is almost no heavy industry, we can't make cars, armored cars, tanks, so it is impossible to produce theories. Japan is an island country, and at that time it was mainly building its navy, and its main resources were used to build warships, so it did not provide much support to the army, so it could not equip a large number of armored vehicles and tanks, and the equipment of its army in Asia was already the most advanced, so this theory would not have been produced. "That's why we're hurrying to pursue mechanization." That's right! ”

"Uh-huh!" Jing Hailin nodded.

"Look! Master, you agree with this point of view. Ding Guoliang said with a smile.

"So who's the strongest now." Jing Hailin asked again.

"The United States is imperial, this needs to be said." Ding Guoliang sighed lightly and said unwillingly.

"Then why didn't he come up with this theory!" Jing Hailin's gaze fell on the body of Chang Chang Victory.

Zhan Changsheng raised his eyes and glanced at him, his index finger lightly brushed his thick eyebrows and said, "There are many reasons, and they are also complicated. ”

"To put it simply, there's no need to go into a long story." Jing Hailin said briskly.

"This is very simple, the US imperialists definitely have the strength to develop, but it is not suitable, firstly, due to geographical reasons, both sides are oceans, and the two world wars are not the main battlefields, natural barriers, and they are not afraid of others attacking." Zhan Changsheng pondered and said.

"Now it's good that he doesn't attack people." Ding Guoliang said angrily, and under the gaze of winning wars, he quickly returned to the topic, "Therefore, the US imperialists mainly build a navy, and its army is only 10 divisions in peacetime, so this theory will not be produced." ”

Yun Lulu said playfully, "As for the situation in South America, Africa, and Oceania, you know, the penguins in Antarctica can't figure out this theory!" ”

"Hehe......"

Yun Lulu's words made everyone laugh.

Jing Hailin looked at the two of them and said, "Let's get down to business, let's mainly talk about Europe, Germany and France are old enemies on the European continent, and the terrain of the two countries is flat, the traffic conditions are good, and they are suitable for mechanized combat, and these countries have the ability to manufacture armored vehicles, cars, and tanks on a large scale, and also have the ability to guarantee their operations." The amazing performance of the tank in the First World War attracted attention, so he began to think about the combat methods of the tank. ”

"We were so envious then, and we still envy it now." Zhan Changsheng said with a red eye, "During the anti-Japanese period, watching our soldiers fight the tanks of the little devils alone, it was really blood and tears. ”

"So the obsession is deep!" Jing Hailin said understandingly.

"I have also studied this theory, and this is simply the unifying thinking of our army now." Zhan Chang Sheng paused for a moment and continued, "When de Gaulle proposed to form an armored force mainly with tanks for assault, the French made the Maginot Line, and their idea was to let the Germans fight a war of attrition in front of the defense line and delay the German attack, and then the British would support them like they did in World War I, and then counterattack, so they did not pay attention to De Gaul's optimism. But after de Gaulle's book was seen by the Germans, they took it seriously. They saw in it the hope of defeating France, and through the assault of armored troops, they could form a quick breakthrough and avoid the trench warfare and attrition of World War I. Therefore, after Guderian's careful study, with the support of Hitler, the German armored corps was taken seriously, and then the offensive mode of the armored corps was perfected, and finally it was decided to use the armored corps as the assault force, the air force was responsible for covering, and the mechanized troops followed closely to consolidate the results of the battle, and finally the mechanized corps of mechanized corps occupied by the infantry was theoretically combative. ”

"But that's no longer the case." Jing Hailin looked at them and said, "If we want to catch up, naturally we are chasing the strong." It is necessary to vigorously develop the navy and air force. ”

"Aren't we developing?" Ding Guoliang said immediately.

"It's too slow." Jing Hailin said helplessly, pointing to his head and saying, "The main thing is the transformation here, look at Lao Zhan, who has been in the navy for so many years, and also uses the navy as an auxiliary, he has to rise to the main force, the main force." He sighed, "As his old man said: 10,000 years is too long, seize the day." The enemy does not give us time to develop. ”

"You think I don't want to, I want to step into communism for a second. But that's not realistic! Zhan Changsheng sighed and said, "Our family is thin, we need money everywhere, and we haven't solved the problem yet?" I also envy other people's weapons, but this matter is really urgent. ”

"Did I say you could do it overnight?" Jing Hailin looked at him amusedly and said, "I don't know the current situation of the country? I'm not a man who is so bold or prolific that you go against science. Pointing to his head, he said, "I'm asking you to completely change your mind and change your mind, understand?" Don't go to the army and the army as soon as there is a war, take the navy and air force into account, and don't ignore it. ”

Zhan Changsheng said humbly, "Got it." Looking at him chuckled and said, "I always dream of arming my mind with naval thoughts!" ”

Jing Hailin laughed angrily when he heard this, looking like he couldn't do anything.
