Chapter 173: The Beginning and End of the Exercise
"Pah! Pah! Pah!"
At 9:09 a.m. on January 2, 1900, a red flare flew into the sky at the North Korean drill ground in the Far East.
This live-fire military exercise started immediately. As the director team that organized the exercise, they naturally shouldered an important task, which was to determine the outcome of the exercise. Therefore, in today's live-fire exercise, Li Ningyu equipped the director team with one chief and ten deputy officers.
A combat consultant, because what Li Ningyu needs is the results that are closest to actual combat and the most real.
In order for the exercise to achieve an effect close to actual combat, the refereeing method must be scientific and reasonable. In military exercises, refereeing is mainly carried out through qualitative and quantitative methods.
Qualitative analysis is generally used to make a macro-evaluation of the tactical ideas and tactics of the red and blue sides. When specifically evaluating the results of a certain confrontation, in order to truly simulate the combat effectiveness and attrition of the troops on the battlefield, the director must use mathematics.
method for quantitative analysis.
The exercise is also a battlefield, and with the full live-fire exercise, there are naturally some soldiers who have just finished their recruit training. When faced with the real sound of constant explosions around them, they have temporary fear, and accidental injuries are naturally unavoidable, but for what happened like this
Li Ningyu always laughed it off because training involves a lot of blood and he would not die in war.
At the beginning of the exercise, as the only artillery company of the Red Army, it immediately adopted a vanguard approach under the command of Peng De and Kong Xiaoping. The two of them each led an armored vehicle brigade and an infantry regiment, dividing the troops into two groups.
Go straight to the blue army command post and defensive high ground.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Less than an hour after the exercise started, the weapon with the most powerful firepower in this live-fire exercise took the lead in launching an attack.
The howitzer is a field artillery with a short barrel and a relatively curved trajectory, which is suitable for attacking hidden targets and ground targets. Because the howitzer trajectory is curved, the projectile has a large angle of fall and is close to falling in the vertical direction, so the shrapnel can be evenly distributed.
The howitzer can be fired in all directions. The howitzer can be equipped with incendiary bombs, grenades, special bombs, anti-personnel submunitions, armor-breaking bombs, guided missiles, extended-range bombs, illumination bombs, smoke bombs, propaganda bombs and other ammunition. It uses changing charges to change ballistics.
Fire maneuvers can be implemented within a larger depth.
The howitzer is one of the main types of ground artillery. As early as the 17th century in Europe, this type of gun with a large shooting angle was called a howitzer. In the 19th century, variable charges began to be used. During several wars between countries, the length of the gun was 15 to 22 meters long.
twice the caliber, with a maximum range of 14 kilometers, but any attack is corresponding. The red side's artillery attacked first. Yes, the blue army was defeated first, but what happened after the red side's artillery fire?
In the live-fire military exercise confrontation, in the first round, an artillery company of the Red Army first attacked the Blue Army's artillery position 1,000 meters away. The director will use mathematical methods to determine that the Red Army's firepower is 16 122mm howitzers, and the total shooting time is
For 5 minutes, each gun fires 6 rounds per minute. The whole company fired a total of 96 shells. Based on the hit rate and damage rate of the howitzer, the answer is that the hit rate and damage rate of direct-aimed fire at 1,000 meters are 56%.
Based on the basic formula of 33%, "Number of artillery shells * Direct-aimed hit rate * Direct-aimed damage rate = Number of targets destroyed", it can be concluded that the Red Army destroyed a total of 4 Blue Army artillery pieces.
When the Blue Army counterattacks, the number of artillery pieces will be reduced by four. In this way, the director team can make specific judgments on the red and blue double counterattacks. After the Red Army artillery attack, if the four artillery pieces in the Blue Army's defensive position are destroyed, they will immediately withdraw from the exercise.
, the same soldier of the Blue Army was declared dead.
However, this kind of calculation of the power of a single weapon cannot simulate the ever-changing modern battlefield. Therefore, in confrontation exercises, the situations that need to be judged cannot be so simple. When encountering situations where the participating arms and weapons are complex, the director makes the judgment like this.
But then the Blue Army sent a regiment of troops straight to the Red Army's artillery position. At the same time, the Blue Army's artillery began to spit out rapid-fire shells. Then the Red Army's artillery position was completely captured, but in this exercise
, the confrontation is comprehensive, so the Red Army detachment attacks the Blue Army high ground, then can the Red Army mobile force capture the high ground?
The director first analyzed and calculated the firepower of both sides. The Red Army had 2,821 rifles [firepower index 1], 53 heavy machine guns [firepower index 3], 33 mortars [firepower index 9], and 122mm howitzers [firepower index 14]
15 doors.
The garrison strength of the Blue Army is 2,516 rifles [firepower index 1], 15 heavy machine guns [firepower index 3], 302 mortars [firepower index 9], and 16 122mm howitzers [firepower index 14]. Through calculation, the Red Army
The firepower index is 148, and the Blue Army’s firepower index is 412.
However, in actual combat, firepower is only one factor that affects victory or defeat. Therefore, the director must consider the comprehensive factors on the battlefield to draw conclusions:
The combat effectiveness of the Red Army = Firepower Index 148 * The best tactical level 3.3 (making full use of its own advantages and adopting high-speed maneuvering tactics, which seriously consumed the strength of the Blue Army) * Tactical Nature Attack 4 = 1953.6.
Blue army combat effectiveness = firepower index 412 * tactical defense nature 2.5 * hills 1.1 * defense preparation time 1 * tactical level strategy 0.7 = 793.1.
Therefore, at the end of the day's actual combat, the Far East Army Exercise Directorate made a fair judgment: the Red Army's comprehensive combat effectiveness index was greater than that of the Blue Army, and the Red Army could capture the high ground. The Blue Army's defense failed and exited the exercise. The Blue Army soldiers guarding the high ground
"Death" or "captured", the "death" of a person is also determined by the director's department based on statistics of shells and bullets fired by both sides.
The content of this exercise is going on bit by bit. The Far East Northeast Field Army, Deputy Commander Wang Hu and Chief of Staff Li Xihua personally led 3 field divisions and almost won most of the battles to defend the blue side, while to attack the red side,
Peng De and Kong Xiaoping also commanded armored mobile units and won several local battles.
So the two sides were considered to be a draw. However, at this time, in the military exercise observation room, a group of Far East high-level officials were quarreling because the one-day exercise was so shocking. In a military exercise involving 40,000 people, the Blue Army had three field operations.
division, that is, more than 30,000 people, while the red side only has 150 armored vehicles and 2 infantry regiments, but it has to attack an enemy three times more than itself.
In the end, they were able to win several major battles. This made many people present lose their eyes. Although they all know that mobility is important, they don't think that relying only on one mobility can defeat them three times.
of the enemy.
However, Li Ningyu did not explain to them, but shouted that actual combat is the only way to test the troops.
