Chapter 491 Pride

Combined battalion, combined brigade!

This is what Liu Tao thinks is suitable for the future development direction of China's military.

As for why, it is naturally because China has spent forty years exploring and summarizing it.

This kind of experience and lessons summarized from history naturally has its reasons, and it is also the most reliable.

At that time, China established 84 combined brigades, including 29 heavy combined brigades, 30 medium combined brigades, and 25 light combined brigades. The heavy combined brigades, medium combined brigades, and light combined brigades have clear division of labor and cooperate with each other. In one exercise after another, it has been continuously proved that this road is feasible.

The weapons and equipment carriers of the heavy combined brigade are mainly various types of tracked heavy equipment. The main combat weapons such as tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, anti-aircraft missiles (artillery), and artillery machines are all tracked. Tracked heavy equipment has the advantages of strong mobility, fast response speed, high strike accuracy, and good protection capabilities. It can calmly adapt to complex combat environments such as plateaus and deserts, and can carry out various combat tasks such as fire assault, fire support, and fire blockade.

The medium-sized combined brigade is a highly mobile armored assault force. Its weapons and equipment are mainly various "big eight-wheelers" and have achieved a unified chassis. Although the off-road capability of the "big eight-wheeler" is not as good as that of tracked equipment, it has the characteristics of mobility, high speed and low noise, low cost, excellent load-bearing performance, and strong self-protection ability. The medium-sized combined brigade and the heavy combined brigade are often able to exert a top-notch combat effectiveness level when used in combination.

The light combined brigade is not very different from the heavy and medium combined brigades. Its weapons and equipment are mainly the "Mengshi" series. It belongs to a light and highly mobile force, and its outstanding features are mobility, flexibility, lightness and speed. With its superior mobility and powerful information system support, its combat effectiveness is extremely strong.

Now there are three combined brigades, although they are also heavy combined brigades, medium combined brigades, and light combined brigades, but they were originally used as the seeds and cradles of combined forces, so they all adopted It is a large organization, and each combined brigade is composed of 800 people.

In addition, even for light combined brigades, the main and most powerful combat force is the Type 81 light tank, so the combat capability is naturally stronger.

Although the three combined brigades went south to fight, the casualties of the personnel are not full at present. But Liu Tao still has great confidence.

At this time, both sides are holding an emergency meeting and mobilization!

The 81st Division and the Tank Brigade formed the Red Army Command and Operations Department. The commander of the 81st Division, Shi Haiyi, served as the commander of the Red Army troops, and the commander of the Tank Brigade, Zhao Jidong, served as the deputy commander.

Shi Haiyi patted his chest and said: "Please rest assured, Chief, they can only bully those monkeys. They are just beautiful on the outside, but they are rotten inside. Facing elite troops like us, they have no power to fight back! In my opinion, there is no need for a tank brigade at all. One of our divisions is enough to deal with them! ”

As a force guarding the capital, they are the elite among the elite, and they are very arrogant.

They are also at the forefront of the replacement of weapons and equipment.

For example, the tank brigade is equipped with ten Type 80 main battle tanks, forty Type 81 medium tanks and three Type 81 light tanks.

You know, there are definitely not many Type 80 main battle tanks in the national army, but the tank brigade has ten.

"That's right, I don't think we need the 81st Division, our tank brigade can defeat them!" Zhao Jidong said.

The tank brigade has 160 tanks, 40 infantry fighting vehicles, and other artillery, and its strength is very strong.

Since the opponent is not sending out a heavy or medium combined brigade, but only a light combined brigade, Zhao Jidong is very confident that his tank brigade can defeat the light combined brigade.

"It's good that you two have confidence, but you can't underestimate any opponent. Otherwise, there will only be one result: defeat. "Qian Guoliang said in a deep voice, "You must remember that your opponent, the light synthetic brigade of the Blue Army, is a unit that has made great achievements in the southern battlefield and is a heroic unit. The leaders even awarded them the honorary title of 'Eagle Brigade'!"

Those who do not take their opponents seriously are likely to lose miserably in the end.

Strategically, you can despise the enemy, but tactically, you must take the enemy seriously!

"If you lose this confrontation exercise, let's see how we will deal with you! "Qian Guoliang glared at the two of them.

If they lost this confrontation exercise, then he, the commander of the group army, would also lose face.

Shi Haiyi and Zhao Jidong disagreed.

Facing an enemy with fewer troops and tanks than them, and even the enemy only equipped with light tanks, but no medium tanks or heavy tanks, if they still couldn't win, they felt that they could go home and take care of their children.

Zhao Jidong was very familiar with light tanks, and their defense was far inferior to that of medium tanks, not to mention heavy tanks.

The ten heavy tanks equipped by the tank brigade could not be penetrated by the enemy's light tanks at all. Armored defense.

Moreover, in history, our army has always been good at fighting with fewer troops and using inferior equipment to win asymmetric wars with superior equipment. It is good at fighting against the wind and even better at fighting against the wind.

On the other side, as a light synthetic brigade of the Blue Army, Chen Ping is holding a mobilization meeting.

After Li Fuguo and Zhao Guoping told Chen Ping about this confrontation exercise, they did not participate in it again, but handed it all over to Chen Ping. Li Fuguo and Zhao Guoping went directly to the director's command.

Chen Ping prepared for war and mobilized the troops.

Li Fuguo and Zhao Guoping just told them that they must go all out in this confrontation exercise.

In the command and operations center, Liu Tao was introducing the "laser engagement simulation system" to the leaders. This "laser engagement simulation system" was specially developed by him for the Malong Military Training Base.

The live-fire exercises of the troops are usually divided into two types, one is a live-fire confrontation exercise, and the other is a live-fire unilateral exercise. The former is similar to free combat, and the latter is similar to routine performance.

In the live-fire exercise, the equipment used is all active equipment. Infantry light weapons are generally equipped with blanks. Blank bullets have no warheads, but they can simulate the light, sound, and smoke of weapons. They are still lethal within 5 meters, but as long as people do not stand at a certain distance from the muzzle, blank bullets generally do not cause casualties.

Heavy equipment live-fire shooting, such as artillery coverage, tanks, fighter ground attacks and other training subjects are all real, using live ammunition. When conducting exercises for a fixed target or military facility, live ammunition is generally used. Because there are no personnel operating in the target area, there will not be much danger.

The troops participating in the exercise complete the exercise subjects in accordance with the prescribed time, generally without causing loss of personnel and equipment, which is one of the important reasons why people usually say that the exercise is like acting.

In order to train the troops, "test exercises" and "confrontational exercises" are often used.

Both exercises are "real", with live ammunition, live explosions, and live soldiers, which can also be summarized as "three real" exercises.

In this, the laser combat simulation system is indispensable!
