Chapter 122 Actual Combat Exercises (8)

It is precisely because this actual combat exercise is of great significance to Yan Mingcheng. He must win, so he is very cautious. He also attaches great importance to the communication system.

Now Yan Mingcheng has called Wu Baoquan over, asking him to secure the communication system during the exercise and not make any mistakes. Otherwise, he must be punished.

Naturally, Wu Baoquan made a vow. It will ensure smooth communication. Yan Mingcheng listened, naturally at ease. Because he has always felt that Wu Baoquan's business level is still very high. Since Wu Baoquan pays attention to it, of course there will be no problems.

However, this is not the case. Because of the old equipment, it is not something you can do if you want to make communication smooth. If you are equipped to make things worse, no one can help.

During this exercise, due to the obsolete communications equipment, Yan Mingcheng suffered a big loss and almost lost this important game. Fortunately, Zhao Zhongyao helped him to turn him into a loss. Victory, finally won this exercise.

Of course, this is something later, I will talk about it later.

The above mentioned the pre-war preparations, checking whether there are problems with the armed equipment, this is the first important preparation.

So what is the second job! It is to support logistics work. There are two main points. The first is the issue of ammunition. What to fight in a war, of course, is ammunition. Even the best weapons and equipment require ammunition. Without ammunition, all weapons and equipment are a pile of scrap iron, without any power.

To fight a war, the ammunition must be prepared first. This is a must. People want to eat, do guns also want to eat! When it comes to eating, it is natural to talk about the logistics of the soldiers. Who is fighting the war is the soldiers fighting. People are beating, people are iron rice or steel, so you don't panic when you eat a meal.

The ancients said that when marching to fight, what they pay attention to is ‘soldiers and horses are not moved, food and grass go first.’ They said that marching and fighting must first be done with logistics support. Fighting is a labor-intensive work, and people can work hard without eating enough!

For this, Yan Mingcheng doesn't need to worry too much. After all, this place is unlikely to have a problem, as long as the director of logistics prepares enough rice.

So what is the next job! This third task is very important. It is the most important part of this exercise and the second competition subject.

This subject is to build fortifications and build positions.

This is a very important pre-war preparation work. The soldiers will need six days to complete this difficult task.

In fact, the actual confrontation of the exercise is only one day, or even several hours. But just for these few hours, I have to prepare a week here.

As the saying goes, three minutes on stage, three years of work off stage. Exercises are similar to acting. The real ‘actual combat’ takes only a few hours. But for these few hours, the equipment work on both sides of the battle will take more than N days.

For both sides of the battle, the second competition subject now is to build fortifications and build positions.

Although the real ‘actual combat’ is only a few hours in that day, for superiors, the assessment of certain combat power subjects is not just the ‘hard battle’ for a few hours.

Although those few hours, the most exciting and most watched highlight of this exercise. It is the climax of this exercise and the most important subject that determines the winners and losers of both parties.

However, in order to comprehensively assess the combat effectiveness of the troops, the superiors still asked three questions.

The first question is marching and training after leaving the station. The second question is the construction of fortifications after entering the practice shooting range. The third question is the climax of this exercise, the final'fierce battle'.

For these three questions, both Yan Mingcheng and Yao Hongjun finished the first one. The result is that Yan Mingcheng did better than Yao Hongjun. The reason why Yan Mingcheng was able to do well was due to the new vehicle equipment developed by Zhao Zhongyao, which not only ran fast, but also did not cause accidents, so that Yan Mingcheng easily won the first game.

But for the second question, there is no essential difference between the two sides. The construction of fortifications uses manpower, which is an important task for the soldiers to complete. This job has nothing to do with whether your armed equipment is advanced or not.

This work mainly depends on the ‘physical strength’ of the soldiers. Can the "reinforced iron bones" withstand the baptism of blood and fire in the war?

For this work, Zhao Zhongyao could hardly help Yan Mingcheng much, because it was a work done entirely by the soldiers' physical strength. No matter how good the weaponry is, it will not be of any help to accomplish this task.

Yan Mingcheng also knew this well. In this match, he was no better than Yao Hongjun. His soldiers were not special soldiers selected from the entire army. Not all of them are tall and round. They are all ordinary soldiers, tall and short, fat and thin.

If Yan Mingcheng wanted to win this round, he had to give orders to the heads of each group to complete the construction work as quickly as possible.

There are only two things that the superiors need to assess for this work. One is the speed of construction. The second is to build the quality of fortifications.

Good fortifications can only be considered as good fortifications when they are constructed quickly and with good quality. The superiors will definitely praise the commander face to face. Otherwise, wait for criticism.

In this regard, Yan Mingcheng has nowhere to do it, and he can't dig the fortifications himself, even if he digs it himself, it may not have much effect.

The only thing he can do is to call all the company commanders of the entire division together and hold a meeting. The content of this meeting is one item. All the cooking classes under the supervision of the company commander are required to cook the best meals for the soldiers. The braised pork must be eaten every day, and the fish, vegetables, and soup cannot be less. In short, just a little bit, we must make the soldiers full and eat well, and we will increase the standard of food to twice the usual. Just to make the soldiers work hard.

After doing all this, Yan Mingcheng felt that he had done his best. He was not sure whether he could defeat Yao Hongjun in this fortification competition.

"Zhongyao! We won the first game! Thanks to your new vehicle equipment! But in the second game, I really don’t have much confidence! We don’t need one of our advanced weapons and equipment. Come on!"

After Yan Mingcheng finished the layout work, he came to his command post, and when he saw Zhao Zhongyao, he naturally chatted with him casually.
