Why did Zhu Rihe Blues play 32 wins 1 0 losses?

Known as the "hyenas", China's first blue army brigade was abused to the point of "crying if you want" in actual combat drills with a record of 32 wins/kloc-0 losses since its establishment six years ago. Even Lian Hongjun shouted the slogan of "crossing Zhu Rihe to capture Man Guang Zhi alive".

Why can they be called "coyotes"? "Set foot on Zhu Rihe and take Man Guang Zhi alive!" Is it possible to achieve it? What changes have taken place in the brigade after this round of military reform?

Recently, the three "Wolf Kings" of the "Wolf of Zhu Rihe"-Man Guang Zhi, Brigadier General of the First Army of China Blue Army, Political Commissar Zhou Xun and Chief of Staff Chen Jun were interviewed by reporters. In the interview, Man Guang Zhi bluntly said that he was not against "taking me alive", which also showed the value of the Blue Army.

"Hello, I am good, hello everyone", the Blue Army is worthless.

Reporter: Every time in actual combat exercises, the Red Army was "abused" and lost its temper. Why does the Blue Army always win?

Man Guang Zhi: The current achievements of the Blue Army Corps are mainly based on several aspects: First, we do have geographical advantages and are familiar with Zhu Rihe. People who have never been to Zhu Rihe may not realize the emptiness, and it is easy to find the north by going deep into the grassland.

Second, in the actual combat exercise of red-blue confrontation, the weapons used are mainly laser engagement systems. As a professional blue army, we have been training with laser system from team tactics to battalion tactics, and we have become very skilled over time. However, some camps of the Red Army troops do not have this system, so they are relatively unskilled for a short time.

Third, we have a guiding advantage. The main purpose of the actual combat confrontation exercise is to expose the problems of the Red Army, so that the Red Army can be tempered in actual combat crises, dangers and difficult situations. The rules of the exercise are more harsh on the Red Army. In fact, the director department is leading the blue army and the red army to fight and supply.

We also have the advantage of training, conducting more than ten practical exercises on such a large-scale venue a year; In addition, the Blue Army is still the "host", waiting for the Red Army's expedition. Some Red Army troops are armed 10 km. When they arrive in Zhu Rihe, people sometimes feel "adrift".

Zhou Xun: If all the Red Army troops come here joyfully with gongs and drums, hello, I am good, and everyone, our army will be worthless in the desert Gobi. Therefore, "the Red Army must be superior and the Blue Army must be fierce".

Unlike other troops, this blue army is more "flexible". Grass-roots commanders are more autonomous, and daily training does not require higher-level leading organs to "stare at stalls." Officers and men often struggle with battle plans.

There were heated discussions before the war, and so did the resumption of diplomatic relations after the war. From single soldier to single soldier, platoon and brigade, from the size of battle damage, terrain utilization and whether typical movements are in place, discussions will be held. Long-term training and tempering, let everyone confidently invest in the "battle."

Online confrontation, an armchair strategist, can not produce execution.

Reporter: some people say that the blue army won again and again because it is familiar with the terrain?

Zhou Xun: In the future, on the battlefield, we will compete with all kinds of opponents. In particular, some troops may have been on the battlefield for decades, and even know each other very well, but this does not mean that the Red Army will not fight. The value of the existence of the Blue Army is not to defeat the Red Army, but to better hone the Red Army.

In recent years, it has been found that the Red Army plays better every game. From the commander's actual combat concept, deployment, military action, enemy awareness, battlefield support, the battle damage rate is getting lower and lower, and the troops are getting better and better.

Chen Jun: A good training ground is a powerful guarantee for the generation of combat effectiveness. Some people may say that we are familiar with the venue, which is a factor.

Only when it is carried out in a field environment can the troops really gain experience. The command and control ability of the army is honed by actual combat training, and online confrontation and armchair strategist cannot produce execution.

Since its establishment, the Blue Army Brigade has been a testing ground for military reform.

Reporter: What changes have taken place in the Blue Army in this round of military reform?

Zhou Xun: From the adjustment and optimization of the establishment system, from the big cities to the remote areas, the Blue Army Brigade was formed with the pace of military reform, and we were also the first batch of reform pathfinders.

After this round of military reform, everyone is facing greater pressure while being excited. 20 16 to 20 17, and continued to undertake the series of leaping exercises entrusted by the headquarters at that time. The intensity, difficulty and risk of the exercises in these two years are greater than those in previous years. Therefore, the Red Army has been unfamiliar with us for several years, and now it has thoroughly understood the routine of the Blue Army, including Man Guang Zhi's character, command weakness and operational characteristics of the troops.

The training focus of 20 16 is the basis of system adjustment and reform, and some articles are made on how to optimize the use of troops and how to improve the smoothness and coordination of command at all levels. 2065438+April 2007, the troops entered the exercise state in operation, and were transformed into synthetic brigades, and more than 0/000 officers and men were diverted from other brother units to perform important tasks such as battlefield parade.

Reporter: How to transform from a professional blue brigade to a synthetic brigade after the military reform?

Chen Jun: As the first blue army in China, we should keep up with the changes in the world military trend and study the changes in theory, organization and combat effectiveness. We must never turn past achievements into stagnant capital.

With the deepening of reform and the improvement of actual combat level, the professional simulation of the Blue Army will become a popular trend. As a force that sets sail and leads the development of the professional blue army, we have the responsibility and obligation to this. In starting and leading the construction of the blue army, we should set a benchmark, guide and bring good standards, so that other blue army units that are being formed and gradually expanded can enter the state from the beginning.

There must be no deviation in the standards for carrying out combat missions and blue army missions. Now, the training program of the simulated blue army of the whole army is ready to be issued. In the future, anyone who has passed the qualification examination and been approved by the relevant departments can come to Zhu Rihe to take the examination.

Reporter: From the perspective of training, what changes have you felt?

Chen Jun: The transformation of military functions is the general trend. We will turn the former infantry brigade into a synthetic brigade and develop into a modular one, which will bring about a series of changes in the standard of combat readiness, the mode and method of group training, and the rules for testing combat effectiveness.

In this round of reform, we have transformed from a professional blue army to a red blue army, which is more conducive to "knowing ourselves and knowing ourselves." The reform requires us to "walk on two legs" in studying the laws and methods of combat effectiveness generation, start with changing training methods and improving training efficiency, further strengthen the construction of training support, equipment support and equipment support system, and improve the talent mechanism.

"The Blue Army doesn't value winning or losing, and it rarely mentions achievements internally."

Reporter: if one day you let the blue army go to a strange environment to engage in confrontation, can you still be so confident?

Guang Zhi: We have this wish, but only if we don't prove ourselves.

In fact, the Blue Army also needs a strange environment to test its ability level, and we will wait and see in the future.

Personally, I very much hope to fight in other venues. From the bottom of my heart, we don't pay much attention to winning or losing in other venues. Changing roles in a place that does not occupy various advantages will greatly promote the overall combat capability and actual combat awareness of the troops. We need this experience, and it doesn't feel good to close the door.

Our goal is not only to complete the task of simulating the Blue Army, but also to have various abilities like other Red Army units. If a new blue army comes one day, we also want to compete with them. We also hope that the Blue Army can win the Blue Army in Zhu Rihe or other places as the new Red Army.

Zhou Xun: Terrain is an important condition, but terrain is not the decisive factor. Talent is the decisive factor. If you can accurately judge the terrain and information acquisition methods on the map and make rational use of them, then you can master the terrain, and you don't have to be in Zhu Rihe. In Zhu Rihe, we are also wolves in other places. After years of training, we have the nature of a wolf. I have confidence in my soldiers and commanders. No matter where we are, we can still achieve our achievements.

Reporter: What do you think of the record of "32 wins 1 loss"?

Zhou Xun: Exercise is the closest training to actual combat, but it is definitely not a real battlefield. Therefore, this achievement does not mean that the Blue Army Corps must "be able to fight and win the battle". There are many rapidly changing situations on the battlefield, which need the test of blood and fire. We still have a long way to go.

"Set foot on Zhu Rihe and take Man Guang Zhi alive!" It's no problem to shout it out as a battle slogan, but the key purpose is the future information battlefield, and everyone can shoulder the mission of a soldier.

The blue army doesn't value winning or losing, and we rarely mention achievements internally. After each exercise, we will find the problems one by one from the aspects of commander's command, team action, equipment support, logistics supply and cooperation with support forces, and solve them one by one in order to avoid them in the next exercise.

Reporter: Have you ever thought about what will happen if the Blue Army is defeated one day?

Zhou Xun: Of course, we are happy. We are looking forward to this day, but we will never be soft.

When we come to Zhu Rihe, we will enter the battlefield. We will not lower the conditions of any opponent by releasing water.

The more the Blue Army, the greater the spur to the Blue Army.

Reporter: There will be more and more blue army troops in the future. Are you worried about being replaced?

Man Guang Zhi: Now many blue teams will invite us to exchange pilot experience with them. On this basis, we are not alone and have no monopoly position, and the pressure will be greater, which will force us to go to the next level faster and better.

I hope that in the next step, the whole army will continue to give full play to the advantages of professional blue army and pilots, continue to be at the forefront of simulated blue army construction, and continue to play an exemplary role.

Zhou Xun: The emergence of various blue army units has also promoted and spurred us.

We are all China People's Liberation Army, and if we are replaced, we are not competent enough. It stands to reason that we have the ability to solve problems, all kinds of talents, the best training ground for the whole army and the firm confidence of officers and men to win actual combat drills.

Reporter: As the place with the strongest battlefield atmosphere in China, how can we keep ahead?

Zhou Xun: As the experimental field and weather vane of the actual combat training of the whole army, Zhu Rihe did not sing hymns, breaking the traditional trial that "the Red Army is an iron and the Blue Army is a tofu". Now we are "grindstones" and sparring partners in actual combat training.

If the Red Army wants to be excellent, it must "sharpen the knife and not miss the woodcutter". At the same time, the "grindstone" troops should "sharpen their knives" as well as "sharpen their knives" and become sharp knives to win the battle. When we study the enemy, we are one step ahead of the Red Army. It is necessary to maintain the strengths of the Blue Army and make up for the shortcomings of its own training.

Reporter: how to use high-tech equipment against the red army in the exercise, and to what extent has the upgrading of weapons and equipment progressed?

Zhou Xun: As far as the main battle weapons are concerned, the overall equipment change began in 20 16, from the first generation equipment to the early third generation equipment. During the exercise, we also got the support of some strategic support forces, such as electronic teams and psychological teams. In addition, there are drone units and army aviation units. In recent years, air-ground coordination has become more and more accurate. The army really needs to improve its combat effectiveness. It really needs to grow wings and fly, and its eyes and ears should light up.

Reporter: What contribution has the First Blue Army made to the actual combat construction of the whole army?

Man Guang Zhi: On the premise of the task and support from the superior, the Blue Army Brigade provides a reference and opponent for the actual combat training of the troops, which can be compared to the role of "snakehead". Expose the problems existing in the construction of combat effectiveness through actual combat, strengthen the awareness of actual combat, test the actual combat level and improve the actual combat ability.

Now everyone has a misunderstanding and attaches great importance to winning or losing the red-blue confrontation. In fact, from the beginning of jumping practice, they emphasized the process rather than the result. From the perspective of both sides in the war, it depends more on how much contribution you have made and how much help you have provided to improve the actual combat capability of the Red Army, so as to gradually dilute the winning or losing and let the Red Army concentrate on finding problems.

The "violation" in confrontation can be used in fuzzy areas.

Reporter: More than 30 battles against the Blue Army have basically won. Some Red Army troops said that you "violated the rules". Do you admit this statement?

Man Guang Zhi: As far as the leadership is concerned, we have no initiative to violate the rules. We don't put winning or losing first. We are just "sharpening stones" and sparring partners.

The so-called "violation" may be that there is a vague area. The Red Army can do this, and so can the Blue Army. We can all use "the law can be done without prohibition". If the director feels that it is not allowed in the process of use, then change the rules, and actual combat drills are also promoting the continuous improvement of the rules. After all, it is impossible to consider all the problems in the preliminary design. For gray areas, grassroots officers and men often feel that since there is no prohibition, they can do it.

Of course, we can't completely rule out individual intentional violations. Once we find them, we will deal with them seriously. But we can't deny the role of 99% just because one% is impure.

Reporter: Have you ever been "soft-hearted" towards the Red Army?

Man Guang Zhi: It is not only the task and responsibility of the Blue Army, but also the expectation of the director department, and it is the only way to strengthen the army.

Therefore, the mentality should be adjusted. Our focus is to test our abilities and expose ourselves. If we have to win in Zhu Rihe, we won't go back without winning. This is not right. This kind of drill can also show the bloodiness of soldiers, learn lessons from failures and setbacks, and then face them bravely, better improve problems and improve their own abilities.

I was in the Red Army, and I was defeated, and I lost miserably. That feeling is unforgettable, and I can be forced to reflect and think.

Reporter: Have you ever thought that you will be "captured alive" one day?

Man Guang Zhi: (Laughter) The phrase "capture alive" is more of a slogan, reflecting a determination and will, and the pursuit of victory.

We are also Red Army troops, just playing the role of Blue Army. From the heart, I am also eager for the Red Army to beat our Blue Army brigade as soon as possible. As for taking me alive, I have no objection, which just shows that the phased tasks of our blue army have been completed. If every unit can defeat us in actual combat, it shows that the mission of the Blue Army has been completed at this stage.

Reporter: Do you have any personal hobbies?

Man Guang Zhi: I usually like reading books when I have time. I seldom watch TV. Sometimes I use my mobile phone to browse some information and news.

Reporter: How do you feel when you see those news reports about you?

Man Guang Zhi: (Laughter) My comrades helped me find it, and I found it myself. When I read those articles, I was actually surprised. I can't hold a person's role too high, but I still have to be a low-key person and do things with high profile. Your concern for me is more about our army, and it is about the army and national defense construction.
