Chapter 1784: I hope they survive!
Pedestal, Awl Mountain.
Thousands of people flocked to this small town with only more than 10,000 people, breaking the tranquility here in an instant.
In order not to disturb the people, everyone, including Lu Shan, lives in a tent!
After settling down, Lu Shan held a briefing on the exercise situation. Generals from both sides of the exercise and representatives of various princes from all over the country attended the briefing!
This is the first time that everyone has been called to hold this meeting, which was chaired by Zhang Zhongji, deputy commander of the 36th Division.
Many observers showed a little surprise about Zhang Zhongji's appearance, and many of them did not understand more!
After all, Zhang Zhongji was also a famous anti-Japanese general. Jiangqiao's anti-Japanese war led his troops to raid the Japanese supply base and became famous in one battle. After Chiang Kai-shek learned of this battle, he was also amazed and called him "the unparalleled national soldier". After the war, he was awarded the rank of lieutenant general of the army!
Such an anti-Japanese hero actually served as a deputy commander in the East Anti-Japanese War, which is simply incredible.
Although Tie Meng is not very famous, compared with Zhang Zhongji, killing Yasuya Uchida and winning a war is too trivial.
Major General leads Lieutenant General, this is probably a very rare phenomenon in the gj sequence.
Some people are not surprised, such as He Jingzhi, who has already known this situation, and Bai Jiansheng, the phenomenon of a deputy position higher than a regular position is not uncommon, it is just rare!
The exercise is a real-time confrontation, and both sides of the exercise and the representatives of the princes who came to observe have already understood it.
But what they didn't know was that this exercise was a casualty bid.
In other words, the exercise does not mean that no one needs to die. If the operation is improper or an accident occurs, it can also die.
Practical combat training. This is the biggest highlight of this exercise and it is also a bit unusual that both sides of the exercise and the observer feel!
Secondly, the exercise rules!
The exercise rules are cruel. Even if you are injured, as long as you are not judged to die, there is another situation that is, if you truly die and do not violate the exercise rules, you can participate in the exercise until the end.
In other words, if you are slightly injured and do not fall off the line of fire, if you are seriously injured and do not die, you can stay!
Of course, violating the exercise rules will lead to a penalty. There are certain standards for believing in the degree of violation and the penalty!
The exercise sets two stages: preemption and offense and defense!
Seizing is very simple, which means seizing the targets set by the director team at the same time. Within the specified time, whoever seizes more targets will be the winner.
This is the first stage. The most you seize the most is a phased victory.
The second stage is to capture the opponent's target. This depends entirely on the performance of both sides. Apart from the time limit, there is no other restriction. Of course, there is one thing that can be used for soldiers who have been captured or have lost their combat effectiveness, but it is not allowed to be disabled or injured!
Even if the violator captures the opponent's stronghold, the final exercise will be judged as losing!
Practical exercises do not mean that they can really ignore the lives of friendly soldiers, which is never allowed.
If you violate it, you will deal with it, and you will never be ruthless!
Soldiers can suffer casualties or accidents in battle, but intentional killing is never allowed. Any intentional killing will be directly implemented once discovered!
There are two standards for the end of the exercise. One is that the combat losses of one side exceed 70%, and the remaining number of strongholds is less than one-third. The other is the time to wait for the final end of the exercise.
Once this set of exercise rules was announced, both sides of the exercise and representatives of the princes from all walks of life who came to observe the exercise were exclaiming "cruelty"!
"Such cruel rules are simply a joke on the lives of soldiers!"
"That's right, doing this is to take human life aside!"
"It's so cruel, just an exercise, it's like it's really happening. If both sides make a fuss, then it's going to kill each other?"
"It's so ridiculous and so ridiculous. Instead of doing such an exercise, it's better to let them go to the battlefield and fight the enemy with real swords and guns..."
"Hehe, it's interesting. There are people who are training more radical than me!"
“…”
"Brother, this exercise rule is too cruel. It's really not suitable to do it. It's better to change the normal exercise method?" Even He Jingzhi privately persuaded Lu Shan to change his course and not to do it so cruelly.
"I don't want to do this either. I set a plan, follow the steps, and then everyone is happy and ended successfully. But is the war like this?" Lu Shan said, "The enemy will say that the war is too cruel, so we won't fight. You can surrender!"
"Brother, this exercise is not the same as a war!"
"In my eyes, exercises are war, exercises are for war, exercises have the minimum life guarantee, you can surrender and admit defeat, but is war OK? If we surrender and we admit defeat, will the enemy let us go?" Lu Shan retorted.
"Brother, your idea is certainly good, but this is an exercise between friendly troops after all, and it seems like a war is a fight. This is not very good!"
"I have something to say!" Lu Shan stood up and announced loudly.
Hundreds of pairs of eyes stared at Lu Shan who was standing up, seeing what he was going to say. Lu Shan, under the attention of everyone, walked in front of the quick walkway loudspeaker.
"I have heard what everyone just said, and I also know that everyone leads troops. Since ancient times, famous generals have always loved soldiers like their sons, but everyone knows another sentence, called Ci but not the commander. The rules of this live-fire confrontation exercise have indeed broken through the inherent concepts of our previous exercises. If our country is not suffering from invasion, our country is still under oppression, and our country is still in the midst of division, I, Lu Shan, would not choose to use this extreme exercise method. Maybe this will be the first and the last time. What I want to tell you is that the soldiers who died in the exercise are also heroes. His sacrifice may not be because of killing the enemy, but he uses his own sacrifice to bring hope of life to other comrades.
Veterans, why can he survive on the battlefield higher than new recruits? In addition to his keen perception of danger, there is another battlefield experience. Many of these battlefield experiences have been learned from his sacrificed comrades. We all have a bad habit, that is, no matter how much correct experience you instill him in, he will always forget at critical moments. Why, he has not experienced it personally, so even if he knows, he will selectively forget at that moment. But after he experiences it personally, he will never forget that the army has been on the battlefield for the first time and can exert one-third of the combat effectiveness of daily training. I think we should all burn high incense. Practical combat is the best way to improve combat effectiveness!"
"What I want to watch is not acting, but fighting. Fighting is at the cost of casualties!" Lu Shan shouted, "I want them to survive on a more cruel battlefield, rather than handing over the pension to their parents, wives and children. I am cruel to them now, and I am responsible for their lives on the battlefield!"
"We should not win at the cost of huge casualties. No matter how many Chinese we are, there will never be a damn person, a damn soldier!"
"I want them to survive and see with my own eyes the day when we drive the Japanese out of China, see the future, see hope, rather than the cold stone tablets..."
"So we have formulated such exercise rules, which makes everyone feel very cruel and inhumane exercise rules. I hope that such exercises do not need to be available again, only once, but I hope that my soldiers can survive on the battlefield. No matter what they say, they have the right to live!"
"At the same time, I will also tell those great powers that our Chinese soldiers are the bravest and least afraid of sacrifice in the world. Any country that dares to bully and invade us will definitely be defeated by us, and victory will definitely belong to us!"
"Okay, right? It should let the great powers know that we Chinese are not that easy to bully!"
Feng Huanzhang's representative Ji Hengli stood up and applauded excitedly.
The talents in the audience woke up like a dream, and thunderous applause rang in the Great Hall of the 106th Brigade.
"We all take the principle of voluntary action as our principle and will not force it. Everyone will write a suicide note before the exercise and hand it over to the exercise director team. All officers and soldiers participating in the exercise will receive an additional three months of military pay. The pensions of officers and soldiers who died during the exercise will increase by 30% according to normal standards. Those who have made meritorious service during the exercise will also be rewarded accordingly..."
"It turns out that the principle of voluntaryness is still set up with such high reward measures. No wonder the Forty Army did not object!"
"But only wealthy people can do this. If someone else is afraid of it..."
"That's right, it's not just about using money to open the way!"
"The exercise was originally scheduled to start on the 5th, but because some things happened to the International Military Observation Corps in Zhangjiakou, the exercise time was postponed to the 7th. We will set off for the exercise area tomorrow morning. Please rest early after you go back today. We will set off early tomorrow morning!" Zhang Zhongji announced.
"In principle, each observation representative only needs to bring one orderly soldier. Other entourage members can stay in the Aconite Mountain or return to Chifeng. We will not confiscate the weapons you carry with you, but you must register it. Please understand and understand this. Compared with the International Military Observation Group, everyone's treatment is already very generous!"
"Also, in principle, we will not interfere with the issue of taking photos, but some places stipulate that photography is not allowed. Please abide by our regulations at that time so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings!"
"You have to take photos, too?"
"This is natural. Whenever military secrets are involved, they need to be kept confidential!" Zhang Zhongji replied politely.
"As far as our domestic military equipment is concerned, it still needs to be kept confidential?"
"If there is no need to keep the secret, why do the Japanese try every means to collect and spy us military intelligence before the war begins?" Zhang Zhongji retorted, "Is it possible that this general doesn't even need basic enemy reconnaissance before the war?"
"Well……"
