Chapter Thirty-One Underestimating the Enemy's Heart
"As for Comrade Yang Xuefeng's performance on the battlefield in Afghanistan and his experience..." Commander Huang said to the microphone: "We have distributed it to everyone in the form of documents. We will not say more here because time is precious. If
Any details or questions... Comrades can communicate with Comrade Yang Xuefeng alone after the meeting..."
At this time, a cadre interrupted and said, "I'm afraid Comrade Yang Xuefeng will be too busy!"
With a "coaxing", the cadres in the venue would laugh heartily...
Later I realized that it was the situation that this cadre said... As soon as the official meeting ended, a large number of leaders would immediately gather next to me to ask this and that, and the questions asked were all kinds of strange...
Even if I have fought in Afghanistan for a year, I can't answer it.
Commander Huang paused and continued, "The purpose of this meeting... I think all the comrades have guessed it, just for the exercise in a few months... The significance of this exercise is very important, and to put it seriously... it is
It's about whether the enemy and us fight..."
I deeply agree with this... You must know that the Soviet Union in this era used spy satellites, that is to say... every move we exercised was under the surveillance of the Soviet spy satellites. If the Soviets discovered our millions
The army is just ears and ears, and then maybe they will really make up their minds to invade!
"So..." Commander Huang said seriously and firmly: "This exercise can only be successful but not failed. We have no way out... Because the real war is likely to happen tomorrow. Every cadre and every soldier
Ask yourself...If a war breaks out tomorrow, what should we do today? This is our mentality to hold this exercise... It can even be said that this is not an exercise. It is a war. In this war...
Every cadre and every soldier are the examinee. There are four examiners: imaginary enemy, republic, people, and history!
We cannot let the imaginary enemy have an opportunity to take advantage of, we cannot let the republic and the people, and we cannot let China suffer from imperialist aggression repeat the history of re-enactment! Do comrades have confidence?!"
"have!"
...
The answers in the conference room were neat and powerful, which gave me the illusion... This was not in the conference room, but on the garrison field... The general was tying for the soldiers who were about to go to war!
Then the meeting quickly got to the point... As I guessed before, most of the discussions were not strategic issues, but issues such as the military and which troops to be involved in the exercise...
The military service is undoubtedly the army and the air force... The reason why the navy is excluded is because our navy was too weak at this time. It is said that when our navy was just established... the navy commander wanted to go.
Fishing boats have to be rented to see the terrain on the island. Later, we purchased some backward destroyers, frigates and the like from the Soviet Union. It was not until 1971 that we had the ability to develop guided destroyers on our own. In 1978, that is, based on the current time, it would be
Three years ago... it started to enter modernization construction!
Such a navy that has just begun to grow... obviously cannot compete with the Soviet Navy, which has several aircraft carriers. On the other hand... The Soviet Union's combat ideas are also made by the land, and the two air forces have moved straight from north to south...
…
This combat plan is very correct, because China's terrain is a plain from north to south, which is very suitable for the large-scale deployment of armored troops. At the same time, most of our railway lines are north and south... The Soviet army fought south while also
Then the occupied railway lines can be repaired and supplied to them!
In history, China...there were several times of destruction of the country because of the enemy's cavalry's attack from north to south. For example, the Mongolian destroyed the Song Dynasty and the Qing soldiers destroyed the Ming Dynasty... Japan originally followed this strategy during World War II, but Chiang Kai-shek gave the troops to him.
It attracted Shanghai to launch the Battle of Shanghai... So Japan's attack direction was unknowingly changed to from east to west. As a result, there were water nets that were difficult for armored troops to walk along the way...
With these experiences... the Soviet devils will certainly not make this mistake again, so what we need to guard against... That is, the Soviet devils divided China into two halves with their fierce attacks from north to south through planes, tanks, cannons, etc.!
For this reason... our defense focus is naturally on the land and air forces.
I naturally can't get into the discussion of these issues. The reason is that although I can fight wars and fight so many wars... I have some understanding of strategy and tactics, but I don't understand the millions of our country's army.
.
How can I understand? What I hear is the piles of numbers and numbers... If this is an expert, when he hears the number of a certain unit, the first thing he thinks about is what tough battles this unit has fought.
Fierce battles, what kind of history does it have, where is the current military strength? And I know nothing about it, so I just watched the fun on the outside.
Seeing the leaders in the venue blushing, this one said I should be on my army, and the other said your army was not as good as me...
I have to admit...I didn't expect this, which made me feel a little bored in the venue!
"Comrades!" At this time, a young cadre stood up and said, "Are we... considering the defensive issues?"
"What do you mean?" Commander Huang asked the cadre in confusion.
"I mean..." The young cadre stood up and replied: "Just as we discussed at the last meeting... the current situation in our country is different from the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China... If the enemy breaks into the country's gate, it will be against our army no matter what.
Industry and politics have caused certain blows, if we can defend the enemy outside the country…”
Upon hearing this, I couldn't help but frown... Defend the enemy outside the country's gate?
"Staff General Cao!" Commander Zhang asked the young cadre: "Do you think it is possible? To defend the enemy outside the country?"
"Of course..." Chief Cao replied: "It is difficult to completely defend the enemy outside the national gate, but if we use the border tens of kilometers as a strategic depth to defend, it is not entirely impossible...
Just like Comrade Yang Xuefeng defeated the Soviet devils in the south on the battlefield of Afghanistan, they used weak forces and weak equipment... but they could annihilate the Soviet army with superior forces and superior equipment... So I think we should not underestimate ourselves,
The Soviet devils may not be as powerful as we think!”
After hearing this, I understand... My victory on the battlefield in Afghanistan has made some domestic cadres underestimate the Soviet army! (To be continued...)
