No wonder these political cadres showed such helpless expressions.
The spiritual outlook of an army is closely related to the personality of its commander.
I don¡¯t know which leader said this sentence, but it is very appropriate for this airborne force deployed at the eastern foot of the Karakoram Mountains.
"Feng Bolin's class is still discussing whether to fight or not to fight after more than half a year. Even after veterans retired and new recruits joined the army, the situation has continued unabated. This in itself shows the problem.
The soldiers had a knot in their hearts. As the chief officer of this unit, why didn¡¯t Zheng Quanli feel the same?
You must know that after receiving the first-level combat readiness order from his superiors, Zheng Quanli wrote his suicide note and was the first to bite his finger and write his name on the bloody banner with "I will win the first battle."
Then he was the first to step onto the cockpit of the plane with a full set of parachute gear.
Yes, Zheng Quanli, who was sitting in the cabin at that time, did not want to come back alive. To be more precise, once the battle started, his chance of survival as the commander of the army was the same as that of ordinary soldiers, which was very slim.
There was no way. At that time, the entire airborne force only had 5 Y-8s, 6 Y-15s, 15 Y-15plus and 4 Y-15s that could perform long-distance rapid airdrop missions.
???????????????? Only two battalions of troops can be airdropped to a designated area at one time, and they are still light infantry without any heavy weapons support.
And this is the theoretical value when there is no battle damage. The question is, can there be no battle damage after the war starts?
Therefore, in previous military chess games, the airborne troops made several arguments and finally concluded that under the best conditions, the transport aircraft group to which the airborne troops belong can provide two transportation missions, and can deliver up to 1,800 people to a designated area. troops.
It¡¯s not that the transport fleet doesn¡¯t want to perform more transport missions, but that after two rounds of transportation, the entire transport fleet will be completely damaged.
This is still the best result, the worst is that they were defeated in the first round.
There was no way there was a significant generation gap between the Air Force¡¯s combat aircraft and the imaginary enemy at that time, even though the Air Force had two T-500 air radar surveillance aircraft as reinforcements.
The problem is that this half-baked radar warning aircraft is not an early warning aircraft after all. In high-intensity combat operations, its multi-target discrimination capabilities, command and guidance capabilities, electronic warfare capabilities and its own safety are not as good as a real early warning aircraft.
¡°Perhaps the T-500 air radar warning aircraft can still play some role in the secondary direction, but it will not have much substantive impact in the main direction.
And this is not the most important thing. The key is the landing troops. As long as they are in time, Zheng Quanli grits his teeth and persists and there may be hope of escaping unscathed.
But the problem is that the shortcomings of the landing force are even more obvious than the air power. Although many ships were mobilized at that time, it was a spectacular sight to see thousands of ships and sails spread out on the sea, but you must know that 90% of them were civilian ships, and even a considerable part were civilian ships. Wooden fishing boats not only have basically zero protection, but also have poor maneuverability.
The imaginary enemy does not need to make too many tactical moves. He can just lay several thousand-ton warships across the sea and use naval guns to push back the so-called thousands of ships and sails.
Because these ships were not only weak in protection, but also lacked supporting firepower. In desperation, the troops could only fix the 152mm howitzer and 122mm howitzer on the deck of the ro-ro freighter, and use artillery to provide fire support on the sea. However, the bumpy waves caused the hull to become unstable. , the artillery can't even perform basic aiming, so the accuracy of this kind of fire support can be imagined.
With air support unable to arrive, and the landing troops unable to arrive in time, what would happen to the more than a thousand people led by Zheng Quanli? You don¡¯t need to think about it, it must be very tragic.
It is precisely because of this huge gap in strength that the headquarters finally called off the operation and changed it to focus on exercises to intimidate.
Does Zheng Quanli not know the intentions of his superiors? of course I know!
But he just felt that the clenched fist should be punched out when it should be punched out. Even if the strategic goal was not achieved, small punishments and big warnings were still necessary. In short, the imaginary enemy should be hurt, and he would know that he was afraid and would not dare to take a step further.
However, the considerations of his superiors were ultimately deeper, broader, and more strategic than Zheng Quanli's. Even though Zheng Quanli was very annoyed and rejected his plan, his superiors suppressed it. Zheng Quanli could not refute it, but his emotions inevitably affected his unit. of officers and soldiers.
Even more than half a year has passed, and officers and soldiers will submit bright red petitions to the headquarters from time to time. Zheng Quanli, the chief officer, does not stop them and takes them all to their superiors to show that the morale of his troops is available.
¡°Then¡then their unit was transferred by the headquarters to the eastern foothills of the Karakoram Mountains.
¡°It¡¯s not that the headquarters got tired of it and sent them to the border areas to stay out of sight, but it¡¯s the people here in the border areas whoThere are indeed some extremely strange changes in the environmental situation.
There was no way. The situation in the southeast half a year ago and the headquarters' restraint gave the outside world a different interpretation. So some regional powers felt that their opportunity had come and began to make frequent moves on the border. They felt that since the headquarters could maintain restraint on the southeast coast, , and the same restraint was maintained on the northwest frontier.
Nichengxiang headquarters was not the staff department of the Republic of China. It was a cotton regiment made up of people. After receiving the report from the border area, they immediately decided to organize a strategic exercise for the headquarters. Then they selected the troops in hand and discovered that Zheng Quanli's The troops have the most determined will to fight and the most courageous ethos. In the words of a certain head of the headquarters at the time:
"This is a sad soldier. As the saying goes, a sad soldier will win, so I chose him!"
Zheng Quanli's troops did live up to the expectations of the headquarters. After receiving the order, they included 5 Y-8s, 6 Y-15s, 15 Y-15plus, 4 Y-15s and a second-hand Y-15 that had just arrived from Russia. All IL-76 transport aircraft were dispatched and carried out eight consecutive fleet transportation missions in just two days, transporting 2,400 combat troops and 400 tons of supplies to the peace training ground at the eastern foot of the Karakoram Mountains.
This action immediately caused some of the alert neighboring countries to be cautious. There was no other way. With 2,400 combat troops and 400 tons of supplies, a big country in the East could complete the task in two days. In turn, they had to weigh themselves. Suddenly I discovered that the same amount might take a month.
However, the restless thoughts have been suppressed, but the small actions have not stopped. There is no way. The momentum has been built up in domestic and international public opinion. In the early stage, they were full of words. If this was done quietly, it would not have become a laughing stock. ?
So the big moves are gone, but the small moves are done every now and then, showing that I am still okay, not timid, and still strong. What are the country waiting for? Bring all the votes, banknotes, and stocks
Zheng Quanli saw that this was okay? He couldn't get used to it, so Zheng Quanli handed over a plan for a live-fire exercise that spanned day and night, and was going to invite military observers from various countries to come over and see if they should continue to be tough or give in quickly!
