"Comrades!" At this time, a veteran cadre, I remember he seemed to be the commander named Li, walked to the podium and said into the microphone: "I don't need to introduce Comrade Yang Xuefeng. We have been here these days.
When discussing the issue of the Falklands War, no one can tell the difference between right and wrong. Now, Yang Xue
Comrade Feng personally participated in the Falklands War, and as you all know, Comrade Yang Xuefeng also fought a very beautiful battle in the Falklands War. He led more than 100 people to capture more than 7,000 people and captured more than 7,000 people.
Port Stanley, this can be said to be a miracle in history! Everyone first congratulates Comrade Yang Xuefeng!"
Then there was a round of applause.
"Next..." Commander Li waited for the applause to subside a bit before continuing: "I think Comrade Yang Xuefeng should first introduce the story of the Xiama Island War and provide us with more detailed information, and then ask if you have any questions!
"
As he spoke, Commander Li waved to me and asked me to step onto the podium. Seeing this, I couldn't help but be stunned... I'm just a battalion commander. How could He De stand on the podium and face the people below on such an occasion?
A mass commander and commander were waiting to speak.
But under Commander Zhang's look, I finally shamelessly stepped onto the podium.
"Hello, chiefs!" My opening words were: "To be honest, during these days of fighting with the British army on the Falklands, what impressed me most was... the feeling of seasickness was so uncomfortable!"
With a "coax" sound, there was a burst of laughter from the audience.
In fact, I intentionally told this joke. I was a little nervous at this time. Telling such a joke can not only relax the atmosphere of the venue, but also make myself relax.
Then I gave a detailed introduction to the meeting about my experience in fighting on the Falklands... It should be said that this kind of introduction is quite boring. The reason is that Commander Zhang and others do not want anything to be omitted.
So I was asked to describe it from the first day or even from the moment I got on the plane, and this description would undoubtedly be a running account like a diary.
There were even cadres who would exaggerately ask me to detail what time I should be doing, and what I should be doing in the blank hours in between... At this time, I couldn't help but scream in my heart, this was a month ago.
, how can it be possible to know exactly what time it is?
But not to mention, this man's potential is really unlimited. Under the "coercion" of Commander Zhang and others, it really reminded me of many details that I had ignored.
So I really think their approach is necessary. After all, when I was fighting in Argentina, I was more concerned about the war. All I could think about was how to win the war or deal with Clapp and others.
As for Commander Zhang and others, they really didn't care much about the coordination of the sailors on the British warships and the performance of the radar.
After "torture" me for several hours, Commander Li asked me a question with sincerity: "Xiao Yang, I think it's up to you to sum up, through this war, your biggest gain is
What?"
"If we talk about the biggest gain!" After thinking about it, I said, "That should be asymmetric warfare!"
"Asymmetric war?!" After hearing this, the cadres couldn't help but be confused.
"You kid is selling melons to me!" Commander Zhang said angrily: "Didn't you come up with this asymmetric war? Can this be called a gain?!"
"Hey!" Commander Li objected: "Lao Zhang, please don't be so harsh on your soldiers. Who says your ideas can't be gains? And I believe Xiao Yang will say so, so of course he will.
reason!"
"Yes!" A cadre interjected from the side: "We have discussed a lot before, some about aircraft carriers, and some about fighter jets. We even divided into several factions to fight over each other. In the end, the public said what was right and what the mother said was the same.
It makes sense, and no one can convince anyone, but no one has mentioned this asymmetric war, tell me what you think!"
"Oh!" After hearing this, I couldn't help but become interested in this topic, so I asked, "Can I first listen to how the leaders discussed this war?"
"Let's put it this way!" Commander Li replied: "We generally hold these different ideas. One group believes that we must give priority to the development of aircraft carriers. This group's idea is... The British aircraft carriers played a decisive role in the war.
The effect is that without the two aircraft carriers, the British army would not be able to obtain air supremacy in the Falklands waters. If they cannot obtain air supremacy, they will not be able to obtain sea supremacy. Therefore, the entire battle cannot be launched at all, let alone the landing on the Falklands."
"Yes!" I nodded. Of course, this makes sense. Modern warfare can be said to be completely passive without air supremacy. This is not only true at sea, but also on land.
"The other group thinks that priority should be given to the development of air power!" Commander Li continued: "The reason is very simple, because we are likely to be on Argentina's side in the future war to seize the island. In this battle, Argentina will not have advanced fighter aircraft.
suffered a disastrous defeat in the air battle. Of course, this faction and the main
Zhang's missile-first faction is also closely related, because from the perspective of the Falklands battle, the role of missiles is huge. Argentina has advanced fighter aircraft such as Mirage 3 and Stiletto, but it is not equipped with suitable fighter jets.
Air-to-air missiles are completely one-sided in air combat.
Therefore, there is actually no clear boundary between those who advocate the development of air power and those who advocate the development of missiles. There is just a question of who comes first between them. At the same time, Argentina can use Exocet missiles to destroy the British advanced Sheffield and attack the British.
Aircraft carriers pose a great threat, which gives the missile advocates a reason to believe that missiles are the top priority!"
I nodded again. Of course, this statement is reasonable. In fact, this is what many countries saw during the Falklands War.
"What do you think?" Commander Li asked: "Which view do you think is more suitable for the current equipment development of our army?"
"I don't think any of this fits!" I said.
"What?" After hearing this, all the cadres couldn't help but be stunned.
"Nothing you call it is suitable!" Commander Zhang said impatiently: "The ones that hit the Falklands are aircraft carriers, aircraft and missiles. If your words are not suitable, then what else is suitable? Could it still be the case?
army?!"
"It can also be said to be the army!" I said: "But it is not exactly the army, but the missile force on land!"
"Missile troops on land?!" The cadres couldn't help being stunned when they heard this. This view is really something they don't have. (To be continued...)
