Jiang Jinlin was in a bad mood today.

I came to the group army for a meeting early in the morning, but after that, I felt very angry.

After getting in the car, as soon as he opened the gate of the group army, he launched a fire on the Chief of Staff Long Bin who came together: "This cross-military Red and Blue Army confrontation exercise between the G military region actually sent our division to be the Blue Army!"

Of course, Long Bin knew Jiang Jinlin’s thoughts.

Speaking of the Red and Blue Army confrontation, it can be traced back to the years after the 1980s.

At that time, because the war had just been fought, although the troops had achieved certain results in the counterattack, they also exposed many problems.

So the headquarters began to let the military regions organize "imaginary enemy" confrontation drills. The usual practice is to be a blue army, that is, an imaginary enemy; the other is a red army, that is, its own troops.

By deducing and confronting the exercise field, the effect of tempering the Red Army troops is achieved and the combat effectiveness is improved.

The Blues were not parallel companies back then.

Many commanders of the Blue Army were once commanders baptized by war, so they were not ruthless in fighting at all, and were even more powerful than tigers. They often beat the Red Army in exercises without any resistance.

This model was once very popular.

Especially in 1981, Hawk Sauce established an international-level military training center with an area of ​​2,900 square kilometers in Fort Irving, California. Its main function is to conduct simulated confrontation between the Red and Blue Army.

The troops were also required to complete two decisive operation rotation trainings in this center before they could declare them qualified to enter combat readiness.

At that time, the knowledgeable people in the army noticed this trend and proposed to establish a similar national training base. Only in this way can they keep up with the pace of the times and be invincible in future wars.

This proposal was not finally implemented (paralyzing, I dare not write it anymore), but the model of the Red and Blue Army confrontation was passed down.

However, due to technical conditions in the early Red and Blue Army confrontations, there was no advanced confrontation simulation system, so most of the Blue Army in confrontation exercises were not of high standards, and there was a certain gap between them and the enemies on the real battlefield.

For the army, peace is the ultimate goal pursued by the army, but at the same time, peace is an inevitable corrosive agent for the army.

Therefore, for a long time, there were great problems with this kind of Red and Blue Army exercise.

Later on, the Blue Army almost became a book boy who "studied with the prince".

The Red Army will always be the protagonist.

The Red Army will always win.

Actually, will you win?

not necessarily!

However, in the judgment and exercise rules of the director department, it is always the one that favors the Red Army.

Defensive plans, offensive routes, reconnaissance methods and other things were revealed in advance, and the exercises became house play.

When entering the battlefield, the Red and Blue Army set off their formation, and the Blue Army will always be the defensive. Then the Red Army launched a large-scale attack. With the advantageous firepower, it used the best and most advanced equipment to beat up some second-tier troops and Class B divisions that were aging and backward.

To put it bluntly, the reason why Jiang Jinlin was unhappy was because the Fourth Division was no longer the same as before, and had already been upgraded in terms of training and equipment, and it was not the former Wuxia Ameng.

But this time, a Blue Army exercise mission was sent to the 4th Division.

Isn’t this underestimation?

Isn’t this bullying?

What a soldier is most annoying is that he is looked down upon.

Jiang Jinlin was dissatisfied.

He believed that his troops had the ability to be the main division, and of course he was unwilling to take on the tasks of the Blue Army exercises.

"Teacher Commander, don't be angry." Chief of Staff Long Bin was quite open-minded: "Last year, our military region and the other military region had a red and blue confrontation. Didn't they also send an army to be our blue army?"

When Jiang Jinlin heard this, the fire came up again: "Well, can it be the same? What unit was the G military region sent last year? What training unit? It was just half training! It was just here to make up the numbers! What unit is our 4th Division? The Class A unit, the Amphibious Division, and the full training unit! In recent years, our army has participated in military competitions. When is it worse than other divisions? It is much better than them! Look at the solemn reconnaissance battalion, the scouts of other divisions will be triggered when they see him. Just this - we still have to be the Blue Army?"

Long Bin quickly comforted: "Team Commander, this time the commander also said that it was not because we were poor in combat effectiveness that we were allowed to be the Blue Army, but because we were the newly built Class A amphibious Division, and we were allowed to act as the Blue Army. We also believed that our Blue Army could be an excellent opponent for the 1st Division of the G Military Region, so we called our general. From a good point of view, it was also a kind of affirmation to us, not?"

Jiang Jinlin was still unhappy: "Comrade Chief of Staff, I appreciate your optimism, but you and I are both veterans and we all know that the Blue Army will be defeated. Is this groundless? You and I know that being a Blue Army is a word of loss!"

Long Bin still comforted him: "Look at that time, the situation is still unclear. Look, the commander said just now, let us let go and show off our style. I see, this time is different from the previous exercises. What's more, the Red Army has the 1st Division, what unit is the 1st Division? It's an old ace. Now we are sent to them as opponents. I think it proves that our status has been improved. Everything should be looked in a good direction."

Jiang Jinlin was happy: "When did you become so smooth?"

After saying that, he sighed and looked at the view outside the car window for a while.

"When you go back, you plan a notice and send it on, notify the regiments to prepare the preliminary work of the exercise and set off in a week."

"Okay." Long Bin nodded: "I'll do it right away when I go back."

...

Reconnaissance battalion, afternoon.

Zhuangyan received a notice from the division headquarters.

Instructor Lu Xiao is preparing to transfer his job recently, and the procedures are completed, so he is waiting to leave.

Zhuang Yan showed the notice to Lu Xiao, who shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You should arrange the military affairs."

Zhuang Yan said: "Instructor, you will be transferred to your career in one week, look..."

Lu Xiao knew that Zhuang Yan was saying that if he went to the exercise, he would probably have to delay his time home.

So he said: "The exercise is a confrontation between the Red and Blue Army. If you have a shortage of people, I won't leave now. I will postpone it. Later, I will call the deputy chief of staff and talk to him about this."

Lu Xiao has always been upright and solemn, so he nodded gratefully: "Thank you, the instructor, with you here, you will be much easier to do your job."

Lu Xiao picked up the cup and sipped the tea, and said with a smile: "Be a soldier for one day, stand in the last shift, there is nothing to thank for."

He glanced at the notification.

"Battery Commander, the opponent of this exercise seems to be your old army."

Zhuangyan nodded: "Well, Master 1..."

Countless fragments flashed through my mind.

The familiar mountains, the familiar rivers, the familiar teaching team...

Zhuang Yan said: "I don't know what other acquaintances you can meet."

Lu Xiao said: "Will you not be able to do it?"

Zhuang Yan couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, I'm a business person."

But I thought to myself.

I don’t know if the battalion commander Zhang Dapao was still there.

I don’t know if the comrades from the top training team would meet them back then.

This is really something to look forward to.
