Chapter 0501: A Different Way (Part 2)
In many film and television dramas, there is a very common plot where the protagonist is fighting alone and is surrounded by enemies, and then is pointed at by black holes with guns.
The protagonist who was killing everyone one second had to put down his weapons and was captured.
Of course, there will be various reversals later.
But that is a deduction after all.
The battlefield is a place where people lose all their humanity. In a fierce battle, corpses shaken by explosions will be re-shot. No one would think of capturing an opponent alive who is still holding a weapon. The best enemy is a dead enemy.
This is what soldiers do on the battlefield.
Therefore, the army must have strict discipline and extremely calm commanders and soldiers.
The topic returns to special forces.
The basic requirement of the special forces is that each member can form an army alone, and one person is an army.
Yuan Lang's requirement for his subordinates is that they can maintain their fighting ability and calmly judge the situation even when they are in the most desperate situation. Even if it is a fatal blow, they must hit the snake within seven inches and make the enemy heartbroken with pain.
lung.
Just like the slogan of the Seventh Steel Company:
Don’t abandon, don’t give up!
Zheng Yingqi admires a belief: as long as a task is given, it must be completed unconditionally and with all one's heart. Other methods can be used to reduce casualties, but whether the task is completed is a must and cannot be negotiated.
This belief is certainly correct.
But now he is instilling another understanding into these people in Jiaolong with an unsolvable question:
If you have an unsolvable task, you would rather give up than try your best to complete it.
Is this... wrong?
In the multimedia information classroom, all the rookies were thinking about Zheng Yingqi's words.
After excluding those map cannons and blaming words, the rookies were all thinking about the meaning of what the instructor told them.
Luo Xing stood up: "Instructor, you mean we shouldn't attack? We shouldn't even attack?"
"You can think so."
"But this is an order from a superior! Moreover, the other party has hijacked our nationals. As soldiers, how can we remain indifferent?"
"I appreciate your stubbornness." Zheng Yingqi knocked on the table lightly, and then said angrily:
"But what is the result of your stubbornness? The whole army is annihilated! The hostages suffer heavy casualties!"
The rookies were a little indignant, and Li Dinghua stood up: "Instructor, if it were you, what would you do? Disobey?"
Li Dong was furious. He thought this was just because of their poor academic skills, but he could not accept the idea instilled by the instructor that they were soldiers and had to complete the mission without hesitation and protect what they wanted to protect without hesitation.
Even if it costs your life!
"If you disobey, you will be killed." Zheng Yingqi answered Li Dong's last rhetorical question lightly, and then expressed his own opinion:
"Anti-hijacking, especially this kind of test questions, is something we have never experienced before. The above are just the test questions we set. If it were reality, the situation might be hundreds of times more complicated than the test questions we set."
"If it were me, I would choose the safest way. Confront the opponent first to delay, notify my family to explain the situation, and get reinforcements. Even if I can't get reinforcements, I will never easily anger the enemy before I show my sword."
A rookie stood up and said loudly: "But the time requirement for the task is less than six hours!"
"First, that is not the time requirement of the mission. Second, what I really want to say is that your Jiaolong Commandos are not positioned as special forces for counter-special operations! Tell me, what is the purpose of this test?"
Faced with Zheng Yingqi's rhetorical question, the rookie who just asked the question answered without hesitation: "Rescue the hostages."
"Yes, this is an anti-hijacking question. Rescuing the hostages is the most critical and core issue. If the hostages suffer heavy casualties, even if you kill all the gangsters, it will still be a failure."
Zheng Yingqi turned around and wrote a few big words on the blackboard:
trade off.
Purpose.
Trade-offs.
"In our conventional operations, we have a clear distinction between the enemy and our own side. What is the mission of our superiors? We only need to work hard to occupy the beachhead and eliminate the enemy for this mission."
"But what kind of army is Jiaolong?"
"In its positioning, it will be responsible for hijacking and anti-hijacking operations during escort, will be responsible for covering the evacuation of foreign nationals, and will be responsible for armed rescue under authorized circumstances."
Zheng Yingqi paused, looked around at the rookies who were listening carefully, and then said:
"It is said that when special forces perform missions behind enemy lines, they are the enemy of the whole world and have no support. However, when you dragons perform missions in foreign lands, your situation is actually more difficult than that of special forces. Some rules of engagement may even restrict you."
He turned around and wrote a few more words on the blackboard:
100% done or failed.
"Your mission has only these two results, and if you fail, it will turn into a disaster! Because you are in a foreign land and represent the face of the People's Liberation Army of the People's Republic of China!"
When the rookies listened, they felt heavy and at the same time felt honored in their hearts.
The captain and deputy captains of Jiaolong also had an idea at this time:
The man on the podium should be an officer of Jiaolong. He knows and is familiar with Jiaolong’s position better than anyone else!
"Either you don't move, but once you move, you have to kill with one move, you have to seal the throat with a knife!"
"The topic returns to this exam question."
"The known victory rate is so slim, why do you still need to show your sword? The anti-hijacking mission is a military operation that cannot withstand mistakes, because your negligence will be the price of life for the abductee!"
"So, put away your desire to prove something, and put away the face you are reluctant to throw away. In this kind of task, one is one, and two is two!"
Zheng Yingqi, who stood on the podium and scolded Fang Qiu, no longer looked like a big devil. His words made the rookies think deeply.
Soldiers are actually very stubborn.
For the sake of honor, they are even willing to risk their lives to defend it.
Just like the belief that the 7th Steel Company once insisted on, the Steel Company who was unwilling to raise their hands in a gesture of surrender during the cooperative shooting was precisely safeguarding the honor that they regarded as life!
But why did Zheng Yingqi raise his hands in front of Gao Cheng in a provocative gesture of surrender?
Just to stimulate Gao Cheng?
No, that's because, in Lao A, surrendering is not unacceptable if it is necessary for the mission.
But this is also a bet on the most precious thing of a soldier. Without Lao A's hell-like training and strong psychological quality, it is easy to break the pot.
As for examples…
Is Li Ling enough?
It can also be understood that the folk song Jiaolong singing on that mountain top is not a special force in the traditional sense, nor is it an ordinary elite force. The character that many ordinary troops regard as treasures should not become a shackles to restrict Jiaolong.
It’s not just the rookies who are thinking deeply, why aren’t the instructors also thinking deeply?
At the door of the classroom, Captain Jiaolong gently waved his hand, gesturing to follow the political commissar he was observing.
"Old man, what do you think?" the captain asked softly.
The political commissar glanced back at the quiet classroom, and after a long time he smiled and said: "It's different. It's different from our time. We are really old, old!"
"Yes, we are old, and this stage should belong to young people." Captain Jiaolong agreed with deep feeling.
The self-defense counterattack against Vietnam awakened our army and changed its tactical thinking.
The results of the Gulf War made our military feel the difference between modern warfare and traditional warfare, and clearly faced the gap between our military and NATO.
Captain Jiaolong and the political commissar have both experienced the above two periods.
At this time, Zheng Yingqi's words reminded them of those two periods again.
