Chapter 489: The Arrogance of Young People

In today's world, if you want to say which country has the strongest army, anyone with normal intelligence will say the Soviet Union without hesitation!

If you want to say which country has the strongest navy, then anyone with a bit of common sense will definitely say the United States!

As for which country has a stronger air force and more advanced aircraft, some people will say it is the Soviet Union, while others will say it is the United States.

For China, the army in the minds of many military generals should be like the Soviet mechanized troops.

As for the Synthetic Battalion and Synthetic Brigade, many people still look at it through colored glasses. Not everyone is optimistic about it, and not everyone approves of it!

First, both the Soviet Union and the United States talked about mechanized troops and never about synthetic troops. As a student, China learned from the Soviet Union and the United States.

Secondly, the investment in the combined battalion and combined brigade was so huge that it was shocking.

The investment and maintenance costs of a heavy combined brigade are almost equivalent to three to five Class A divisions, which is to say comparable to a group army.

Liu Tao said that in the future, China will establish 29 heavy combined brigades, which will be 29 group armies. Now the Chinese army only has 24 group armies, and even these 24 group armies are struggling.

As for the 30 medium-sized synthetic brigades and the 25 light synthetic brigades, they all wanted to roll their eyes when they heard it.

A whole year's military expenditure is not enough to maintain the operation of so many combined brigades in the Army. Are the Air Force, Navy, etc. going to drink the northwest wind? And he also had to engage in side business to subsidize the army! ?

If we really build 84 combined brigades, it would be better to build more than 200 Type A divisions and defeat the enemy through absolute strength superiority.

And according to Liu Tao, the three synthetic brigades are now only basic versions and have not yet been completed.

But the three synthetic brigades are already the top equipment in the country.

Liu Tao was non-committal about some of the leaders' opinions.

Since the three combined brigades represent the future, they must be so strong that it makes people desperate, so that other domestic troops can know that they are not even able to fight back in the face of enemies with generational advantages.

"Dear leaders, any one of our three combined brigades, taken alone, has absolute confidence in defeating any division in the country, even the Class A division!" Liu Tao said with confidence: "In the future, the combined brigades will definitely defeat The most powerful enemy of other domestic troops, and only in this way can we test the deficiencies in domestic military construction. Now we are ready to compete with the elite troops of the major military regions at any time. I have great confidence that there is no one. Division and brigade-level units will be the opponents of the combined brigade.”

Liu Tao is very confident in the three combined brigades.

Whether it is a heavy synthetic brigade, a medium synthetic brigade or a light synthetic brigade, he is very confident.

In terms of the advanced level and completeness of equipment, no division or brigade-level unit in China can compare with the combined brigade, even the light combined brigade.

More importantly, the military concept of the combined brigade is to be ahead of other troops.

"Are you too confident in the Combined Brigade? Comrade Liu Tao, you must know that since the Red Army period, our troops have been good at fighting enemies with superior equipment." An old man seemed a little angry.

Young people seem to look down on the world's heroes too much.

Especially since this young man is not the chief military and political officer of the three combined brigades, Li Fuguo and Zhao Guoping are the chief military and political officers of the three combined brigades.

Neither Li Fuguo nor Zhao Guoping said such big words, but Liu Tao dared to say so. It was simply unreasonable!

"Yes or no, we can clearly see through a confrontation exercise." The old man smiled, "Isn't the 27th Army training here now? Let the 27th Army allocate a division and have a battle with a combined brigade. Confrontation exercises.”

The 27th Group Army is one of the seven major Class A group armies today. It is well-known throughout the army for its solid training and excellent work style, and its combat effectiveness is extremely strong.

Speaking of the origin of the military history of the 27th Group Army, it can be traced back to the "Kunyu Mountain Red Army Guerrillas" in 1935. In the following ten years, the Kunyu Mountain Red Army Guerrillas continued to grow and develop in Qilu, integrating the blood of other fraternal units.

By 1949, the Fire Group had developed into the 9th Column of the East China Field Army and was renamed the 27th Army. It had jurisdiction over the 79th, 80th, and 81st Divisions. The composition of the 27th Army was mainly composed of soldiers from Jiaodong, who were simple, obedient, and The good quality of not being afraid of sacrifice.

In November 1950, the 27th Army entered North Korea to participate in the war. It fought fiercely with its brothers in Changjin Lake and defeated the arrogant "Polar Bear Regiment". Later, it participated in the Fifth Battle, the Summer and Autumn Defense Campaign of 1951, and the East Coast Defense of North Korea. Task.

For more than 20 years, the 27th Army has been affiliated to the East China, Jinling, and Jingcheng Military Regions.

In 1985, the 27th Army was retained and implemented the type A group army organization. The 79th Division and the 80th Division were both northern type A motorized infantry divisions, and the 81st Division was the northern type B division. In addition, the original A tank brigade formed from the headquarters of the 84th Division of the 28th Army and the Tank Regiment Committee of the 81st Division of the 27th Army, as well as an artillery brigade and an anti-aircraft artillery brigade.

There are more than 70,000 people in the army.

The leader called for the military and political officer of the 27th Army. When the 27th Army heard that a brigade was going to defeat a Class A division of their own, they were so angry that they slammed the table.

"We won't take advantage of you either. You are one brigade and we are one brigade. We will send our tank brigade and the 81st Division!"

The tank brigade has 4 tank battalions, 1 armored infantry battalion, 1 artillery battalion, and 1 anti-aircraft artillery battalion, with a total of 160 tanks, 30 infantry fighting vehicles, and a total strength of about 2,000 people.

The 81st Division is a northern type B division, which means it is not fully staffed, with about 6,000 people, and its weapons and equipment are mainly light weapons.

The tank brigade plus the 81st Division has a total strength of more than 8,000 people, which is not much more than a combined brigade.

Qian Guoliang made up his mind to teach this ignorant army a lesson.

Although a brigade is a large brigade, its strength is not as good as that of a type A infantry division. It is so arrogant.

Li Fuguo let the light combined brigade go to fight and participate in this confrontation exercise.

All of a sudden, both sides took action.

"Leader, are you really not going to increase the troops? If the 81st Division and the tank brigade are defeated, the face of the 27th Army will be lost." Liu Tao looked at the leaders and reminded kindly.

The 27th Army is one of the seven Class A armies in the army today, and it is truly elite.

If it fails miserably in the confrontation exercise, the 27th Army will lose face, and the military will also lose face.

If the ace division is sent, there may be some chances of winning.

The old man smiled faintly and said, "No need, we will know whether it is a mule or a horse after a walk."

"The two sides have similar forces. The tank brigade of the 27th Army is equipped with 160 tanks, and even one-third of them are Type 81 medium tanks, and the rest are Type 59 tanks. It is hard to say who will win or lose in this battle!" The old man does not care about who wins or loses, because they are all Chinese armed forces. What he cares more about is the outstanding performance and problems exposed in the process.

It's over. I was thinking about resuming normal updates, but my daughter has a fever. I will try to update five chapters tomorrow depending on the situation!
