The hand-to-hand combat tactics of our country's army are as chaotic and unsystematic as the composition of our country's army, not to mention skills and coordination. They basically rely on individual bravery and strength without systematic training, nor the conditions and time.
Conduct training. Most of them are farmers who have just put down their hoes. A large number of them were dragged to the battlefield without much training. They are incomparable with the Japanese army.
Of course, there are also some elites who have received systematic hand-to-hand combat training, such as the Broadsword Team in the Northwest Army, the Bayonet Team in our Jin Army, etc. But that is the treatment of a small number of elite soldiers. Without universality, there is no representativeness. Because the future of the country
The war cannot be won by relying on a few elite soldiers, not to mention that even a small number of elite soldiers are far behind the current Japanese army.
The third one is the spiritual and ideological gap:
As I said just now, Japan is a country that upholds the spirit of Bushido. Bushido is the ideological foundation followed by all of Japan, from the emperor to ordinary people. Bushido is not only the outlook on life and world view of Japanese warriors, but also the obligations and responsibilities that warriors should fulfill.
It includes moral norms and codes of conduct such as loyalty to the monarch, advocating martial arts and absolute obedience. Bushido has had a profound impact on all aspects of Japanese political and social life, giving Japan the ideological and cultural tradition of great power.
Especially since Japan defeated the Qing government, the largest country in Asia at the time, in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894, and then defeated the then-powerful Tsarist government in the Russo-Japanese War in 1905, it can be said to be invincible throughout Asia.
The victory of these two wars, which were ten years apart, allowed Japan to obtain war compensation and territory that were previously unimaginable in a short period of time. The strength of the entire country was greatly enhanced, and the Japanese people's confidence in becoming a powerful country from top to bottom was extremely expanded. At the same time, it also breeds
It enhances the national sense of belonging and honor.
At the same time, Japan also used the huge war reparations it received to invest in the education of its citizens. Now Japan’s compulsory primary education has fully covered rural areas. Basically every Japanese citizen of school age has the right to receive compulsory primary education.
The most frightening thing is that in the decades since Japan’s Meiji Restoration to the present, while teaching cultural knowledge to school-age children, Japan has also begun to instill the spirit of bushido and the idea of strengthening the country in every child, cultivating their sense of national belonging and national strength from an early age.
The samurai's sense of honor has penetrated deeply into the hearts of the Japanese.
Therefore, today's Japanese soldiers not only have a high literacy rate, but also generally have clear understandings and goals spiritually and ideologically. They know that serving the emperor and fighting for the country is glorious and honorable.
If they perform poorly or shrink back in training and combat, not only will they themselves be brutally and inhumanely punished, but they will also be spurned and despised by their peers, and even their relatives at home will be punished.
He was laughed at and looked down upon by his neighbors and fellow villagers.
Therefore, from the first day they joined the army, Japanese soldiers consciously shouldered the important responsibilities of the country, the expectations of their families, and their own samurai ideals. For them, dying on the battlefield was the samurai's mission and belonging, and surrendering
Defeating the enemy and defeating the battle is a shame and a betrayal of the ideals of the samurai. We don't care whether this bushido spirit and thought is good or not, but we must admit that an army composed of such soldiers is very terrifying, and its combat effectiveness is also
Very powerful.
As all officers know, the soldiers in our country are different. Most of them are illiterate, and even some of the officers are illiterate, let alone have any ideals and beliefs about serving the country and the people. Most of them just do it to eat.
When they join the army with a full meal, their national honor and their willingness to sacrifice for the country have not yet been fully established in their hearts. Often a partial rout can easily lead to an overall rout. Officers die in battle or flee, and soldiers disperse in droves.
. The combat effectiveness and cohesion of such an army on the battlefield are bound to be far behind those of the Japanese army.
My purpose in mentioning these gaps is not to belittle our country’s army and soldiers or to undermine their own morale, but to hope that the officers will be clearly aware of these gaps from both ideological and tactical perspectives, and then consider how to narrow the gaps and how to
How to maximize strengths and avoid weaknesses, and use appropriate strategies and tactics to deal with future wars."
At this time, the venue was completely silent, and the whole place was silent. Some of the officers below showed disappointment, some were still unhappy, and some frowned and thought hard about how to deal with it.
Tian Boguang didn't speak anymore. He picked up the cup and drank water to moisten his throat that was about to smoke. He just wanted to leave time for these officers to think and compare, and let them take the initiative to find ways to deal with it. This is also
Zhou Wen had discussed with him before, first pouring cold water on them to wake them up, so that they would have a clear understanding of their future enemies, and then give full play to their commanding talents and imagination to find ways to bridge the gap between the two sides.
Of course, there will be some people who are directly frightened by the gap between the two sides. From now on, they will only talk about it and start thinking about how to save their lives. Zhou Wen can't care about these people.
You must know that there are still many gaps that Zhou Wen dare not mention. For example, the composition of the Chinese army is complex, each has its own affiliation, and even each province has different forces. The unification of the country is just a word game. Since there are many forces, then the interests are different.
Everyone has his own calculations and thoughts. Some are unambiguous in their national interests and resolutely resist Japan. Some only think about their own one-third of an acre of land and preserve their strength. Some even have illusions.
Stepping on two boats, swinging back and forth between Japan and the Nanjing government.
Even the Jin army belongs to the central government in name, but in fact it is essentially a warlord army.
At this time, someone in the venue finally couldn't sit still. At this time, a captain stood up and said with red eyes: "Then according to what Second Lieutenant Tian said, we can only be beaten passively and have no power to fight back?"
At this time, Tian Boguang smiled and said: "I'm sorry, sir, I'm just a second lieutenant officer. I came to introduce the situation to you officers because I know the situation of the Japanese army better. I am not qualified to study how to apply tactics to the Japanese infantry."
Yes, this is a matter for the superiors to consider."
"You..." The captain suppressed his anger at Tian Boguang's words. His face turned red, and the look of disappointment and unwillingness in his eyes was even worse. Everyone in the audience was also in an uproar.
Seeing the venue becoming noisy, Zhao Changshu coughed lightly, stood up with cold eyes, turned to the officers behind him and yelled: "What's the noise? What's the matter? Are you scared? Are you timid? I'll give you one now.
Opportunity, even those who are timid and afraid of death will stand up. I will not punish you if you take off your military uniform today. As long as you admit that you are an eggless person, you will get out immediately. But don't say that you are a soldier that I have led in the future. I cannot afford to lose that person.
