Red Alert 1895: Chapter 462 Army Spinner Part 2
Hu Wei pointed out that there is actually no need for special forces to exist, because the current combat firepower of the army is already very fierce, and they can completely undertake the task of attacking the tough ones by themselves. However, the armies of Western countries in this era are not enough to have too many people able to withstand such fierce firepower from Taiwan's army. In the past, the main task of the special forces was to tear open the battlefield, and then let the troops from the rear pour in. The weapon used by special forces is the Sten submachine gun, which is specially used to tear open the enemy's gap. But now that the firepower of ordinary troops is strong enough, their status is more embarrassing. The troops in front no longer need them to open the gap, so naturally there is no need for them to exist. So what is the use of keeping them, this is obviously very embarrassing.
The reason why Hu Wei thinks so is because the current special forces are mainly used to tear the gap, and rarely used for special operations. In the current era, the thinking of special operations has not been truly developed. In the previous wars in Taiwan, special forces were actually used to overcome difficulties and open the way for the rear troops. In fact, the real special forces are used to harass and attack the weak points of the enemy, or some special missions, not the kind of troops that tear open the gap under the cover of front-line artillery fire.
So Hu Wei subconsciously thought that this is how the special forces used it, and he didn't realize where the special forces really used it. After all, Hu Wei was an officer in the late Qing Dynasty, and he was an officer in the green battalion before. The new military knowledge cannot be quickly understood. What's more, even the foreign devils in this era don't have special special forces. They all use some so-called "death squads" to fight, which is actually very unprofessional. This kind of troops. It is simply impossible to perfectly assume the responsibilities of special forces. So Hu Wei has no experience in this area, which must have made him feel very depressed. In Hu Wei's heart, special forces are actually a kind of death squad. Once you leave the frontal battlefield, it is useless.
"Actually, it is still necessary for special forces to be preserved. However, the method of use of special forces must be adjusted in the future. In the future, the method of use of special forces can be changed to sneak attack or harassment. Cutting off supply lines, rescuing hostages, and other special tasks .These tasks are characterized by high difficulty, high risk, etc. They are specialized in performing such special tasks. And they will undertake tasks in a very complicated environment. And they have to learn various skills, not only to learn various The use of various types of long guns and short guns, and various artillery. Not only must we be familiar with our own weapons, but also the enemy’s weapons, so that we can pick up the enemy’s weapons and use them when we encounter a last resort. We must even learn to drive. It will be popularized in the army, and at that time, being able to drive is especially important, whether it is to perform tasks or to retreat in time, it must be able to complete tasks in time."
"Even, we have to let these special forces be responsible for the combat environment in different places according to their own characteristics. For example, there are those who are responsible for fighting in the mountains. Our special forces are needed in the Nanyang tropical rainforest in the south. They can be familiar with various animals. And there is a lack of food at critical times. You can hunt and eat. Familiar with whether various animals and plants are poisonous, you can survive to complete the task. In the north, sometimes you must be able to perform tasks in icebergs and snow fields. The Gobi desert in the west, They are all places where they want to perform their tasks. In short, we must perform our tasks well under various circumstances, so that we can be regarded as a qualified special force."
Hearing Wang Guorui's statement, don't you feel that these special forces are abusing themselves? Because everyone feels that this kind of special forces is too difficult to train. There are so many things they have to learn, and it may be very difficult to train. And something so complicated. Everyone doesn't know how to train, which makes everyone feel very complicated. And what is the use of training such a complicated army? Such a complex army will definitely consume a lot. How can they use it then?
Everyone has never used these special forces, and they don't know where to use these special forces. So they don't know how these special forces will be used, so they feel that this special forces will be a very cheating thing.
"These special forces will use the best weapons, and they can even customize their own weapons, which are specially suitable for them. And when they need them, they can help us with many important tasks. As long as we use them well, it can completely let us Our troops can play a big role. For example, sneak attacking the enemy's headquarters, or assassinating a certain enemy general or politician, etc. They learn various skills, which can be prepared for the execution of tasks." Wang Guorui Said.
One of the most important capabilities of the special forces is to assassinate the enemy's senior personnel. If an enemy general is assassinated, it may cause a large army to completely lose their brains, which will also cause confusion among the enemy. Or if you assassinate the enemy's dignitaries and then support one of your own people to go up, this is enough to change a country's attitude towards itself. Therefore, special forces will be low-cost and high-efficiency. They can fully cooperate with political means to deal with the enemy, and they can make the least effort to achieve the best results. Compared with ordinary troops, they still have a very huge advantage.
This task of assassinating the enemy's leader is called "beheading operation" in later generations. Once the leader is killed, the enemy's willpower to resist will also be greatly reduced. This may force the opponent's army or even the country to surrender.
But Hu Wei immediately asked: "Then it must be very difficult to train such soldiers? Besides, I am afraid that not everyone can serve as this kind of special forces, right?"
"That's right, that's the case. We will conduct a second selection among these special forces. Anyone who fails to pass the selection will be transferred to other units and cannot stay in the special forces. Only those who pass the selection Only those who can stay in the special forces and receive new training. But I have no hope for them, because their usual training is not the ability of special forces, but just the concentration of elite soldiers on the battlefield , It is still too far away from the real special forces in my mind. As for us now, we can pass excellent training and select elite personnel before we can establish our special special forces." Wang Guorui said.
These special forces must be re-selected. The original selection criteria for special forces, the selection criteria and the standard subjects for training have not even reached one-tenth of the content of later generations. In addition to technological reasons, this is also related to the tasks they perform. In the past, the training subjects of this kind of troops were not very scientific, and they were all used as troops to tear open the gap in the front, and they did not have the ability of real special forces of later generations. This time, the selection must be carried out according to the standards of later generations, because only in this way can we select really good seedlings and train real special forces, not those ostentatious troops. As for the next step, as long as there is a sound special forces selection mechanism that allows them to continuously select excellent young seedlings, then their own special forces can gradually become an army.
As for the usefulness of special forces, it has become very obvious in later generations. In the various wars after World War II in later generations, special forces were indispensable in almost every war. Especially in anti-terrorism, it has unparalleled advantages. Regardless of the high training costs of special forces, the tasks they undertake are all strategic. As long as they can complete a task, they will earn back their cost. If there is no special forces, the manpower and material resources that need to be used are huge, tens of thousands of ordinary troops are needed to achieve the effect of special forces~www.mtlnovel.com~ It may not even be professional. Therefore, special forces can save a lot of costs and enable war to achieve strategic results. In later generations, countries are also paying more and more attention to the use of special forces, so that they can truly make themselves a stable force. Without special forces, the future is certainly not possible. If I can give priority to training and exploring special forces, then it will definitely be very beneficial.
"Everyone must think carefully about how to make good use of this special force. In the future, the three armed forces will be the three major military services. However, the Marine Corps, special forces, and so on will become one of the two most important arms. , so don’t underestimate this special force! This special force will exert a very important effect, which is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Next, let Tanya and Natasha carry out the special force Training, so that they can train them well. In this world, no one is better at special operations than Tanya and Natasha, and there is definitely nothing wrong with letting them train." Wang Guorui said.
"Yes!" Everyone said together.
"Master Wang, what should we do with our retired army weapons? These retired weapons are all wealth! If they are just lost like this, the loss must be not small. But if they are sealed , it seems that it is not appropriate, so I ask everyone to think of a way how to deal with it." Li Fusheng asked. (to be continued)
