"The so-called asymmetric combat refers to asymmetric means, unequal forces, and unconventional combat methods to carry out wars. This requires high-tech as the basis..."

Xie Kai explained.

After his explanation, Tang Xin, a person who had drunk foreign ink in the United States, immediately understood.

"When I was studying in the United States, I heard some discussions from my classmates, but they were on guard and rarely said specific..."

Immediately, Tang Xin gave some introduction to what he knew.

"The equipment of multinational troops is advanced, and even the same number is stronger than that of the Iraqi army. This is an asymmetric force, right? Using satellites and large-scale reconnaissance aircraft to collect intelligence, and using cruise missiles to paralyze Iraq's command system, etc. is this an asymmetric method? And directly using air force bombing and missile precision strikes is an unconventional combat method?"

Situ Lei asked Xie Kai with some anticipation.

This is a new combat theory research. After so many years of construction of the Blue Army, it seems that such a systematic theory has not been proposed?

The importance of the study of military theory is self-evident.

Domestic military reform has been ongoing, with only one goal, which is to improve national defense strength.

"The chief, this is understandable. Of course, this is not only that."

These big guys have extremely sharp eyes, and just remind them, they understand.

"Comrade Xie Kai, in the modern war situation, does the army have to follow the high-tech development route? How much does it cost..."

A general asked Xie Kai worriedly.

Although he knew that Xie Kai's answer would be yes, he also hoped to hear other plans.

High-tech means higher prices.

The military expenditure is so small every year, especially per capita, so few that cannot be seen directly.

At present, except for strategic weapons, conventional equipment in China is almost not considered advanced.

The equipment shown in the Gulf War is really much worse.

"Chief, it is impossible to save money under the development of modern warfare... Didn't the country propose the modernization of the army? In fact, it should be mentioned more about the high-tech development of national defense... With the development of science and technology, in the future, it is likely that the two sides of the war will not even have contact, and a war will be over..."

"Buzz~"

As soon as Xie Kai said this, the lower part exploded again.

Everyone was unable to accept Xie Kai's words.

How much can war compare to money?

"When we fought the Japanese, there was nothing, didn't we win?"

"When we were bald, we were much worse at equipment and things. We won the same victory?"

"At that time, we were fighting against the United States and aiding Korea, and our Xiaomi and rifles were added. Multinational troops were armed with planes and cannons. Wasn't they also forced to the negotiating table to actively seek peace with us?"

Just kidding.

Xie Kai, the young man, had no idea how strong the PLA's combat strength was.

This is undesirable.

China has always faced enemies with more advanced technology and stronger weapons and equipment, and has won the war every time.

Xie Kai now said that the army of both sides could decide the outcome of a war without contacting each other. Who can accept it?

The more I talked about it, the more outrageous it became.

Even Situ Lei thought Xie Kai's words were too arbitrary.

"Can a war end a war without contact?" Situ Lei even had a smile on his face.

It is understandable to say that national defense costs will be very high in the future.

If both sides do not contact each other, the war will end, and no one can accept it.

"Chief, our base has a project called drones. The principle is somewhat like the remote-controlled target aircraft used by our air defense forces and the air force... If the remote control technology is improved, our fighter aircraft will be remotely controlled hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away, and will be controlled in real time through satellite communications, and used for reconnaissance, combat, etc...."

The domestic military has never considered drones.

The Air Force has not even advanced third-generation fighter jets.

"Indeed, the Blue Army troops have begun to use unmanned reconnaissance aircraft. Even if they are discovered, the losses are reconnaissance aircraft. Even a reconnaissance aircraft is not as expensive as a air defense missile..."

He Chao explained.

"The current combat ideas of the Blue Army are to use remote-controlled drones to reconnaissance first. After determining the target, they will send air force or launch missiles to conduct long-range precision strikes, destroy important targets such as the enemy's command center..."

Yang Bin once again introduced the combat methods of the Blue Army.

The Blues' style of playing is different from the Army from the beginning.

The entire Blue Army, except for the missile forces, only artillery was procuring howitzers.

Self-propelled howitzers are also used to explore operations and support the attack of front-line troops and can maneuver quickly.

"Although the Blue Army is good, the cost is too high. Our annual military expenditure cannot support much of such troops..."

A veteran general said.

"Chief, many years ago, there was a saying that when a cannon fired, gold was 10,000 taels!" Xie Kai smiled, "This is the case in modern warfare. It is the national strength. If there is no money, the national strength is not good. In the future, there is no war... The Soviet Union withdrew its troops from Afghanistan because they had no money... In the past, the multinational troops could not continue to fight in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, and it was also because they had no money... Even if there is no money in withdrawing from the Vietnam War, it is also because there is no money... Not to mention anything else, we have understood how much consumption is for our self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, right? That's just a conventional war..."

If you don’t have money, you really can’t fight.

Especially high-tech wars.

When a big country fights, it is not a poor country in Africa. It can be called war without requiring heavy weapons.

The big guys twitched collectively.

"Chiefs, it can be seen from the Gulf War that future wars will be dominated by high technology. Political Commissar Yang did not introduce it too clearly. In fact, in the future, as long as the army's air defense forces are not strong enough to intercept all attacks, the air force will be the main force of combat... Even if the army wants to develop, it will also develop long-range offensive forces... The real direction of the army's development is special operations and long-range offensive forces..."

Xie Kai introduced the role of the Army in future operations.

Although no more bigwigs refuted him, Xie Kai saw contempt in their faces.

He knew that even the sky was not very useful. Now that the Gulf War is not over, these bigwigs still believe that the army of both sides will fight to the decisive battle.

There is not such a strong air force in the country.

Even after several disarmament, the army is the largest in China.

The reason is not just that the equipment of the Air Force and Navy is too expensive.

For example, a J-10 costs about US$30 million, which is more than 200 million in soft sister coins of that era.

The J-20 with more advanced performance costs about 100 million US dollars, which is almost 1 billion...

Not to mention the Navy, a 052d missile destroyer, the price of one ship reaches 2.5 billion.

The 055, a 10,000-ton class, is said to cost more than 5 billion...

Not to mention an aircraft carrier, an aircraft carrier is not only an aircraft carrier, but must be equipped with a fleet.

And the cost of aircraft carrier fleets is tens of billions...

How can the military tycoons who have always been afraid of poverty bear such high costs?

Anyway, the possibility of war is not very high, so it is enough to have army defense...

In the future, if the country has money, the annual military spending exceeds 100 billion US dollars, the situation will improve.

Now the military expenditure is only 50 or 6 billion US dollars a year. How can they accept it if the bigwigs spend a high price to build an army like Western countries?

Procurement of Su-27 has already caused the military tycoons to the extreme.

Everything will be said until the Gulf War is over.

The Gulf War is not over yet.

"Xie Kai, didn't you brag before that a brigade of the Blue Army would challenge two or three divisions? Otherwise, let's take a walk? There is no need for three divisions, just use an armored division to fight against the Blue Army Brigade. How about it?"

A general was too lazy to listen to Xie Kai's nonsense.

I have to have an exercise with the Blues.

Didn’t the Blues say that it’s awesome?

Didn’t it mean that the army’s combat effectiveness is not good?

They directly used an armored division to destroy the Blue Army, and they only had one brigade.

Tang Xin was eager to try and wanted to teach other troops in China and tell them how to fight.

But unexpectedly, Xie Kai spoke first, "Chief, it's not suitable now. The Blue Army has not completed construction and many equipment has not been in place..."

"Your equipment is already much more advanced than other domestic troops. What equipment do you need?"

Situ Lei was a little surprised.

Until now, a brigade, just for equipment costs, has cost almost 2 billion, right?

Not enough?

"Not enough! The Blues lack too much, especially the reconnaissance and communication systems, which have not been improved yet..."

Since Xie Kai objected, Tang Xin couldn't force him, right?
To be continued...
