Chapter 483

"One cannot deny the efficiency of emerging technologies and new tactics."

"Therefore, I firmly support the deepening of military reform..."

Zheng Yanlong's speech went a bit off-track, but it led to another intention.

Why is military reform progressing slowly?

Could it be that the military department lacks money or equipment?

No, no, it's just because most senior officers are still clinging to the old tradition of 'infantry and artillery.'

They guard old glories and resist new concepts and tactics.

A more important reason is: military reform is destined to streamline personnel, optimize, and improve efficiency.

This will lead to many people being unable to keep up with the pace of the times and exiting the stage in sorrow.

The cake is being moved; who would be willing to accept that?

Well, I've digressed.

The power of the example was great, and it also drove enthusiastic participation.

Next, commanders at all levels expounded on the problems encountered in this exercise.

Lin Feng huddled in the back row, appearing to listen intently, but his mind was wandering!

There was no help for it; these were all old problems existing in field units.

They didn't concern him, and he couldn't get involved anyway.

So he felt bored; it would be more exciting to listen to people cursing.

Of course, the Lone Wolf B-Group obtained three collective merits in this battle, which was very satisfying.

What, you say collective merits are useless?

You are dead wrong.

Collective merits are also recorded in one's resume and act as a lubricant for future promotions.

A collective merit is an affirmation of the entire unit.

It subsequently improves the unit's level, welfare benefits, priority in equipment distribution, priority in material supply, priority in equal promotion, and increases quotas for officer training and advanced studies, etc.

In short, the establishment of military merit levels all has significance and profound uses...

Around 4:00 PM, just as Lin Feng was about to fall asleep.

Lieutenant General Du tapped the table and interjected:

"Comrades, do you all only see your own little plot of land?"

"This exercise was originally scheduled for half a month, with the final occupation of the city as the main goal."

"But in reality, it ended in just five days."

"May I ask what the deciding factor was?"

"That's right, it was the special forces."

"Modern warfare is dominated by high-tech means and ultra-long-range strikes."

"But the destructive power of small elite units deep behind enemy lines is equally astonishing."

"In both exercises, I was personally beheaded by special forces soldiers."

"And it was in the midst of ten thousand troops; may I ask if this doesn't illustrate the severity of the situation?"

The next second, Lieutenant General Du called out a name directly.

"Lei Keming, you start us off and give me another lesson."

Hearing this, Lei Keming almost vomited blood.

The old man Du was too vengeful; he had only shown off a little, was it necessary?

If you drift in the world long enough, you'll eventually get stabbed!

Depressed as he was, Lei Keming stood up and saluted without delay.

"Chiefs, colleagues of the Southeast Theater."

"In this Spring Thunder exercise, I am a loser."

"But I am not discouraged; on the contrary, I feel happy from the bottom of my heart."

"Because I lost to our own people and witnessed even more excellent and powerful special warfare talents."

"Each generation of talents emerges, and the new generation surpasses the old..."

Lei Keming tapped his forehead and laughed sheepishly.

"Sorry, I went a bit off-track; let's return to the topic."

"Chiefs, colleagues present."

"Among you, there must be many who are very unfamiliar with the special warfare field."

"Perhaps you've heard of it, but don't know the reason why."

"You think, it's just a few special forces soldiers, what's the big deal?"

"Sneaking around to attack logistics, taking out non-combatant technical units, etc."

"It's luck, and even more so, it's a sneaky style of work that isn't worth taking seriously."

"You might even think, I could do it too."

"To this, I must say, you are dead wrong; you really couldn't do it!"

"As everyone knows, modern warfare is fought over logistics and supplies."

"Lacking weapons and ammunition, any ace unit will have to sit idle."

"Therefore, the importance of logistics units is self-evident."

"And special forces specialize in targeting the enemy's logistics and technical support units..."
