cpa300_4; The harsh winter has passed, spring has entered March in the Damei Mountain area, and everything has begun to recover.
After more than three months of arduous training, the Dameishan Independent Brigade's military appearance, discipline, formation and combat skills have been greatly improved. The Veterans Training Camp and the Green Forest Training Camp have been officially disbanded, and all veterans have returned to the establishment, and
Squadrons were used as units and were stationed at five fortresses or traffic thoroughfares in Damei Mountain.
Although the youth training team has not yet been disbanded, it has entered a rest period. The daily training volume has been reduced by half. The extra time is used to arrange military theory courses. The instructor is still Leng Tiefeng, and Xu Rui will only come over occasionally.
Fortunately, Leng Tiefeng is a top student at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, so he is more than capable of teaching these students.
In the small wooden house, more than twenty young students were sitting at attention in front of the low wooden table.
After more than three months of arduous training, the faces of these young students are no longer fair, but have become dark and dark. The childishness on their faces has also faded a lot, replaced by fortitude and coldness. In short, all of them have lost their temper.
A lot of creamy flavor, but a bit more masculine.
Of course, the biggest difference is their sitting posture.
Leng Tiefeng especially remembered that when he gave evening classes to these students for the first time three months ago, none of them stood or sat properly. Leng Tiefeng scolded them all, but nothing changed. But now, these twenty
However, many students stood there with their chests held high and their heads held high, like a bell, squatting there.
Damn it, you look like a soldier now, Leng Tiefeng nodded imperceptibly.
Seeing Leng Tiefeng appear at the door, He Shuya immediately stood up: "Everyone, stand up!"
Huang Shouxin and more than 20 students all stood up, stood at attention, and saluted Leng Tiefeng.
Leng Tiefeng strode into the classroom and stood in front of the podium. He returned the military salute, and He Shuya shouted again and sat down.
After the students sat down, Leng Tiefeng turned around and wrote the words "frontal combat of a large corps" on the blackboard. Then he turned back to the students and said, "Today I will tell you about frontal combat of a large corps."
Leng Tiefeng said as he opened the handout. In order to prepare for this class, he really put a lot of effort into it. He spent a full week carefully preparing this handout. Fortunately, West Point Military Academy has
This theory course was offered, and Leng Tiefeng also learned it in depth, and he could write down the basic theories from memory.
Of course, this does not mean that Leng Tiefeng agrees with Xu Rui's point of view.
When Xu Rui proposed to teach these students about frontal combat and the newly emerged large-depth combat theory, Leng Tiefeng was firmly opposed.
Leng Tiefeng believes that this is not necessary at all. The Dameishan Independent Brigade only has more than 700 people, and it is not even a regiment. No matter how good these students are in their studies, they can only be company commanders. You let them study in college.
Corps, the theory of deep combat? Aren't you kidding? No matter how many dragon-slaying skills a butcher learns, he can only kill pigs.
Leng Tiefeng thought that if he had time, he might as well teach these students more about sports warfare theory. This was serious.
But Xu Rui insisted that the theory of mobile warfare must be taught, as well as the theory of large corps and large depth!
Xu Rui insisted on teaching, but Leng Tiefeng could only convince the crowd, but there was no way. Who made Xu Rui the captain? The first level of official rank is overwhelming.
"The so-called frontal combat of large corps refers to the process of frontal competition between two large strategic clusters of the enemy and ourselves on a front with a certain width. For example, during the World War, the Eastern Front and Western Front battlefields in Europe were both frontal operations of large corps.
, its biggest feature is that the amount of troops invested by both the enemy and ourselves is extremely large, the battle process is extremely brutal, the consumption and casualties are huge, but the results are often not great."
As soon as Leng Tiefeng finished speaking, Huang Shouxin immediately stood up and said, "Report to the commander!"
Leng Tiefeng said: "Speak!"
Huang Shouxin asked: "Is the Battle of Songhu considered a frontal battle for a large army?"
"Barely calculated." Leng Tiefeng nodded and said, "In the third stage of the Battle of Songhu, more than 70 divisions and nearly 500,000 troops were invested, divided into three army groups on the left, center and right. The Japanese army invested nine divisions.
The other two detachments of the regiment, with a total strength of more than 300,000, are divided into two armies, the Central China Dispatch Army and the Eleventh Army. They can be regarded as large corps for frontal combat."
Huang Shouxin said: "Sir, there is a view that in the third stage of the Songhu Battle, if we do not entangle the Japanese army in the Songhu coastal area, but retreat to the Wufu and Jiacha defense lines, we can effectively avoid the Japanese army.
With superior naval guns and the firepower of carrier-based aviation, the outcome of the Battle of Songhu may have been another outcome."
When Leng Tiefeng was about to speak, a loud voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Well said!"
When the students turned around to look, they saw Xu Rui striding into the classroom and beckoning the students to sit down.
"Well said." Xu Rui cast an appreciative look at Huang Shouxin and said, "However, the assumption you just made involves another cutting-edge military theory, that is, the Soviet Marshal Illustration
The theory of large corps and large depth operations just created by Haczewski.”
Seeing Xu Rui, Leng Tiefeng consciously gave up the podium.
When preparing lessons, Leng Tiefeng had repeatedly discussed military theory with Xu Rui. Leng Tiefeng was always dissatisfied, but he had no choice but to give in to Xu Rui in military theory. In a word, Xu Rui's military theory skills were far superior to his.
Above all, he knows almost everything Xu Rui knows, but he may not know everything Xu Rui knows.
For example, Leng Tiefeng had never heard of the blitzkrieg theory.
Xu Rui walked to the podium and continued what he had just said: "The theory of large-scale and deep-depth operations is a theory that is opposite to the theory of large-scale frontal operations. The opinions of these two theories are completely different. One advocates frontal decisive battle.
The other is to defeat the enemy on the frontal front as much as possible, while the other advocates conducting mobile operations on a vast battlefield to consume the enemy as much as possible, exhaust the enemy, and finally encircle and annihilate the enemy."
"The results of the World War show that the effect of frontal combat with large corps is unsatisfactory. Neither the Allied Powers nor the Central Powers cluster can defeat the enemy from the front. But is the effect of large corps in deep combat necessarily better than that of frontal combat with large corps?
Well, it has not been verified in actual combat for the time being, but I firmly believe that the theory of large corps and large depth operations will definitely shine in future wars, and I firmly believe this."
Of course Xu Rui's words are not nonsense, because World War II will break out in full force in one year. Both the German and Soviet armies practiced the theory of large-corps, large-depth operations in World War II, and both achieved brilliant results.
, the German army almost unified Europe by relying on the blitzkrieg warfare evolved from the theory of large corps and large depth, while the Soviet Red Army defeated the invincible Nazi Germany by relying on the theory of large corps and large depth.
Then in another ten years, a war wizard will appear in China's Liberation War. Standing on the shoulders of the German Army and the Soviet Red Army, he will interpret the theory of large-scale deep operations to the extreme. On the vast land of Huaihai, with sixty
The poorly prepared People's Liberation Army surrounded and annihilated 800,000 soldiers all equipped with beautiful weapons and equipment!
Until half a century later, this battle was still a classic case in various Western academies, and was often taken out by instructors for in-depth analysis.
This war wizard is General Riyu. Riyu’s greatest contribution to the large-depth combat theory of large corps is to creatively give another definition to intersecting clusters. Before Riyu, intersecting clusters could only be formed by tank groups or motorized vehicles.
The infantry group is responsible for this, but Riyu proved that infantry can also be used as an interleaved group!
Li Yu's contribution lowered the threshold for large-scale deep operations of large corps and gave broader prospects to the theory of large-depth operations of large corps.
It was precisely because of Li Yu's practice of large corps and deep operations that in the Korean battlefield three years later, the Chinese People's Volunteers often moved forward crazily with an army, a division or even a regiment. The coalition led by the US military was often defeated.
, the formations were surrounded and annihilated, especially the South Korean Army, where entire divisions were often surrounded and annihilated.
Although the U.S. military has no cases of being surrounded and annihilated by battalion-level structures, that is because they have incredible logistical support capabilities.
Xu Rui quickly recovered his thoughts and said: "The theory of frontal combat of large corps is not new. I will leave Instructor Leng to explain it to you slowly. Today I will briefly talk to you about the theory of large corps and deep combat."
Hearing that Xu Rui was going to talk about the cutting-edge theory of large-scale deep operations, more than 20 students immediately opened their notebooks, and more than 20 pairs of burning eyes were focused on Xu Rui.
Xu Rui turned around and wrote the words "assault" and "interspersed" on the blackboard.
After finishing writing, Xu Rui turned around and explained: "The assault theory and the interspersed theory are the two most critical components of the large-scale deep combat theory of large corps. I will talk about assault first. As the name suggests, assault is a sudden attack, concentrating absolute advantage.
The troops and firepower are used to attack the enemy on a narrow front or even at a certain point, break through the enemy's position as quickly as possible, tear apart the enemy's defense system, and then boldly penetrate forward."
"The penetration of the assault group is like a sharp knife piercing the enemy's heart. As long as it is inserted to a certain depth, it will definitely hurt the enemy's heart, and the enemy will definitely die and collapse. This is beyond doubt."
"However, after the enemy collapses, it does not mean that the battle is over."
"If we cannot surround and annihilate the enemy in time, we can wait for the enemy to collect and retreat, and then we can quickly launch a counterattack. If the enemy's commander is calm enough and smart enough, he can easily defeat or even annihilate our pursuing troops.
A victory is likely to be a defeat."
"This involves another theory, the interpenetration theory!"
"Why do large-scale operations with large corps and large depths need to be interspersed?"
"Because there is no penetration, there is no encirclement!"
