Han Xiaobei remembered Zhuang Yan's words and did not argue with Li Haiou, so he chose to smile and pass.
The next step is to hold a meeting. The content is lackluster. It just introduces the cadres currently on duty and gives a rough introduction to the current situation of the special operations brigade.
What Han Xiaobei is most concerned about is the mentality of veteran E Division cadres like Li Haiou and their understanding of special operations.
The history of the development of the concept of special operations in China is still very short. It can only be traced back to the Liangshan War in the 1980s. At that time, each military region selected reconnaissance elites from various units to form frontline reconnaissance brigades. The Liangshan War
Only after the end of the war did the establishment of special forces at the military district level begin.
That was the prototype of the earliest special operations unit formed by the PLA.
It is wrong for some people to include units such as the Armed Work Team behind Enemy Lines in the Anti-Japanese War and the Reconnaissance Company during the Liberation War into the history of special operations of the People's Liberation Army, because at that time, units of this nature had not been separated from the scouts and guerrillas in the People's Liberation Army.
In essence, even the concept of special operations has not been formed.
Therefore, the Chinese Army during this period has not yet truly grasped the essence of special forces operations.
After the establishment of the special brigade at each military region level, it entered a period of development in the 1990s. During this period of development, each of the seven military regions had a more or less large number of special brigade or reconnaissance brigade. However, relatively few
Compared with the size of the army, China's special forces at that time were pitifully small. But soon, each major service also began to prepare for the establishment of its own special forces, and eventually formed the special forces of the seven military regions and the four major services of land, sea and air artillery.
, which was the prototype of China’s special forces over a long period of time.
Therefore, it is difficult for cadres of infantry units like Li Haiou to understand the difference between special operations and reconnaissance.
Regarding the question raised by Han Xiaobei, Li Haiou did not avoid answering directly like other cadres, but chose to state his own views.
"These days I've been cramming in special operations and reading a lot of books." Li Haiou was very satisfied with his learning attitude and said with confidence: "Actually, I found that special operations and our traditional scouts
The majors are very similar in nature. That is, they are almost the same!”
His views made Han Xiaobei present dumbfounded.
However, the purpose of his meeting this time was to learn the basics, not to teach Li Haiou and others here. You must know that it is difficult for a cadre who grew up in an infantry regiment to adapt his inherent concepts in a short time.
"Special operations does contain some professional elements of reconnaissance."
He smiled and then cryptically corrected: "However, special operations have three specific elements, one is specific target, the second is specific strength, and the third is specific attributes. The biggest difference lies in the third specificity, the traditional scout principle
The tasks on the Internet are more "reconnaissance", while the special operations are more "combat", which means that it is an action of armed soldiers to attack and resist the opponent, but there is a limitation on its attributes, that is, "special".
That is to say, the method adopted is 'unconventional', and compared to the scout, its attack attribute is stronger."
Li Haiou thought about it, and he felt that Han Xiaobei in front of him could analyze so many things after listening to his words. Whether he could fight or not was one thing, but in theory it seemed quite solid.
However, he still refused to admit that he knew nothing about special operations, and said haha: "I think it's pretty much the same. We scouts also need to break attacks and launch attacks. It's essentially the same thing, but it's just functional.
So many questions.”
Han Xiaobei didn't want to convince the other party, so they chatted for a while and the meeting ended.
Li Haiou sent Han Xiaobei back to his family area, where there was a house for him to use.
Along the way, Li Haiou asked Han Xiaobei where his family was and how old his children were. At the end of the question, he said that he had been working in the army these years and that his wife did not live together because of work issues and they only saw each other once a week.
Ask Han Xiaobei to move his family here as well. After all, his level is high enough and the local government has a policy of supporting the army, so it can be arranged like this.
Regarding Li Haiou's enthusiasm, Han Xiaobei nodded and smiled, saying yes, yes, and thinking that this Li Haiou was really as upright as his old squad leader said! Just now, he was talking about his arrival.
He is a man with a gun and a stick. At this moment, he is talking to himself heart-to-heart without leaving any room. He is a strange person.
When they arrived at the destination, Li Haiou got out of the car and said to Han Xiaobei: "This car is for you, and the driver Xiao Yang will follow you from now on. If you need anything, call the driver's class to find him. He will be there on call."
"
The two said goodbye, and Han Xiaobei went upstairs. The driver Xiao Yang helped bring the few luggage up and left.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
Han Xiaobei stopped him and told him to give him a car key. He might not be able to use the car at any time, so he wouldn't call him when it was inconvenient.
Xiao Yang quickly said that his duty was to drive for the Chief of Staff, and I would be there whenever you call him.
After declining, Han Xiaobei stopped nagging. Seeing that it was still early, he put down his luggage and asked Xiao Yang to take him to the grassroots company to have a look.
Xiao Yang asked him where are you going?
Han Xiaobei said: "Which company in the brigade has the best training now?"
Xiao Yang asked: "Chief of Staff, what are you talking about?"
Han Xiaobei said: "The training level and training facilities."
What he was thinking was that to see the whole picture, look at the company with the best training.
The level of the best-trained company is already the ceiling of the current training level of this brigade.
Xiao Yang said without thinking: "Of course it's the Fourth Company."
Han Xiaobei asked: "Is it the Hero Company?"
Xiao Yang said: "Well, before the reorganization, it was called the Fourth Company of Sharpshooters. Now half of them are soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion, and half of them are soldiers of the original Fourth Company. They are the company under the Menghu Regiment led by our regiment Li Haiou. They used to be our E Division.
The best-trained and hardest-working company. There are many top players in their company, but now there is only one acting platoon leader named Hou Jun, and the rest have gone to the combined brigade."
Han Xiaobei didn't say much and pointed to the door: "Then take me to see it now."
Xiao Yang said: "Chief, why don't you go to the brigade headquarters canteen for lunch before you go? It's almost lunch time."
Han Xiaobei said with a smile: "I can eat wherever I can. If it doesn't work, I can eat at Silian. It's not as fast as mine, right?"
Xiao Yang felt that the new chief of staff was quite interesting in what he said, and he had no airs at all.
So he drove Han Xiaobei to the Fourth Company.
The Fourth Company is not far from the brigade headquarters, less than two kilometers, and it takes less than ten minutes to arrive.
After getting out of the car, Han Xiaobei took a look around and found that the training ground here was indeed large enough and in a good location. There were mountains and flat areas, but the training ground only had an ordinary four-hundred-meter obstacle course and a traditional bombing range.
To truly build a special operations company with similar infantry facilities, we will definitely need to invest heavily in building various special operations training grounds. This is also a big project.
Suddenly there was gunfire in the distance.
Han Xiaobei looked towards the shooting range and knew that someone was shooting targets there.
No wonder the training ground is empty.
The soldier standing on duty ran over, saluted politely, and asked: "Who is the chief looking for?"
Han Xiaobei said: "Where is your company commander?"
The duty officer pointed to the direction where the gunfire came from: "He went to the shooting range. Our company is doing target practice today. Do you want me to notify you and come over to see you?"
Han Xiaobei waved his hand: "I'll just go over and take a look myself."
