Asking for dinner, Pei Chengyi asked Dongfang Wen to gather the members of the advisory group.

Although all the Republic soldiers who followed Pei Chengyi and foreign soldiers who worked with Pei Chengyi believe that among the well-known generals of the Republic, Pei Chengyi is the most approachable one. He never puts on airs and rarely hides his subordinates, but when dealing with major affairs, Pei Chengyi is very sensible and should not tell his subordinates, and absolutely does not say a word. Of course, if he needs to let his subordinates know, Pei Chengyi will not hide anything at all.

Before going to the conference room, Pei Chengyi asked Dongfang Wen to send the information he had just printed.

It was estimated that most of the officers had finished reading the information, and Pei Chengyi entered the conference room.

"This is the latest information I only obtained today." Pei Chengyi glanced at the soldiers sitting and said, "As everyone saw it, although it is the latest, it is also four in front of us. This tells us that this is Argentina, not the Republic, don't think too much about the situation, you must make the worst preparations."

Even Pei Chengyi was so serious, and all the officers were serious.

In fact, even without Pei Chengyi's reminder, these officers who participated in the Indian War could draw the same conclusion from the information they had just read on the Internet.

“No matter what the situation is, we must first recognize our identity.

,just

Pei Chengyi paused for a moment and said, "Although at the last meeting, I have told you that as military advisers, our duty to defend Argentina, and to do everything we can to assist Argentina, but today I want to remind you again that we are just military advisers. It is not our turn to charge forward, and it is not our turn to sacrifice our heads and sprinkle our blood. What we have to do is to fulfill our responsibilities and be worthy of the reward of tens of thousands of dollars a day."

After saying that, Pei Chengyi laughed first, and the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became much more relaxed.

In fact, for the Chaoming consultant, recognizing his identity is indeed a very difficult thing.

Although the Republic broke the convention shortly after the Fourth India-Pakistan War and sent a regular military advisory group to Sudan, before that, the Republic's intelligence agencies sent informal military advisors to many hot spots. For many years, the Republic's military advisors were everywhere, from the plateau of Iran to the jungles of Central America, from the deserts of Central Africa to the rainforests of net fruits, from the swamps of Southeast Asia to the mountainous areas of South America, almost every hot spot has military advisors. However, since the "Bangkok Incident" and the Military Intelligence Agency and

After the operation of exchanging top-secret technologies, the Military Intelligence Bureau was responsible for sending military advisers to the outside world, and the General Staff no longer allowed the General Staff to intervene. The Military Intelligence Bureau also established a special management agency. In other words, the Republic's military advisers active in all parts of the world are actually agents of the Military Intelligence Bureau, not regular soldiers. In fact, after the Year of the Knife, few regular soldiers participated in foreign-related operations, and even the Military Intelligence Bureau was restrained and handed over many relatively minor foreign-related tasks to private institutions like Huaan Company.

It can be seen from this that the soldiers of the Republic lack the experience of serving as military advisers.

Not to mention those school-level officers, even Pei Chengyi did not have much relevant experience. Although Pei Chengyi lived in Pakistan for two years before the Indian War, the situation in Pakistan was very special. Moreover, Pei Chengyi's official identity in Pakistan was a military diplomat, not a military adviser, Pakistan did not pay Pei Chengyi's salary, so his work experience in Pakistan was not very helpful.

What kind of role does a military adviser have, and what kind of obligations and responsibilities do he have?

Pei Chengyi did not say it directly. Because these officers had received special training from the Military Intelligence Bureau before going abroad and had a good understanding of the basic situation of foreign-related operations. In the international community, according to the view recognized by most countries, including the Republic and the United States, the military advisers sent by the legal government of a certain country to serve non-native governments are military personnel between professional soldiers and mercenaries. In military conflicts, unless military advisers participate in employment operations, they should enjoy the relevant rights openly stipulated in international wars and fulfill corresponding obligations. That is to say, without considering the basic relationship between military advisers and service countries, military advisers are professional soldiers, not mercenaries. Compared with professional soldiers, the biggest difference between military advisers is that they do not need to be loyal to the service country.

Because it involves external operations for a long time, the Military Intelligence Bureau has long formulated a detailed "Military Advisor Code of Conduct".

I love my heart

When he left Beijing, Pei Chengyi got a code of rules. Although he had not finished reading in detail, according to Dongfang Wen, in addition to the few key points that need to be paid attention to in the yard, as long as he does what a soldier should and can do, he will basically not encounter any trouble.

To put it bluntly, military advisers are "mercenary soldiers" recognized by the international community.

After relaxing the atmosphere, Pei Chengyi knocked on the table and said, "We know what to do, so there is no need for me to talk too much. This meeting mainly discusses the combat plans and punishments formulated by the Argentine General Staff in front of the four, find out the problems, and propose a feasible solution to the game. Of course, if I was not wrong, maybe everyone would think that it is too early to do these things now? No matter what, war is a war in Argentina. If the Argentine army does not have an urgency, no matter how hard we try, it will not achieve any effect. Although I do not object to this view, we must know that it is better to prepare in advance. It is much better than doing nothing. Of course, someone may ask, this combat plan in front of the four

The Argentine General Staff cannot do nothing within the four, right? In fact, judging by the information already possessed, the Argentine General Staff must not have too much power. No one in charge of the Argentine General Staff has real power. What other good things can the Argentine General Staff do? According to my judgment, what we have obtained is likely to be the combat plan used by the Argentine army to recover the island of Mahara. Even if there is any change, it will not be too big. There is no doubt that this combat plan has no feasibility. If the Argentine army launches war according to this plan, the result can be imagined. Fortunately, Argentina is not fighting alone, and we will never let the worst happen."

After saying that, Pei Chengyi picked up the teacup.

"Please raise any ideas." Dongfang Wen took over the topic and said, "Today is just a discussion. The so-called "people are getting high in firewood and fire. Regardless of whether the view is correct or not, everyone is more active. Say whatever they think."

When Dongfang Wenwen spoke, Pei Chengyi nodded while observing his expressions.

"General Pei, will we not let this plan be repaired, right?"

"That depends on the result of the discussion." Pei Chengyi put down his teacup and looked at the open lieutenant colonel officer. If Pei Chengyi remembered correctly, the Air Force lieutenant colonel named Long Hongen performed very well in the Indian War. When he was rewarded for merit after the war, Yuan Chenhao specifically won him the opportunity to be promoted. "According to my idea, whether to modify or to start over or over again, it is mainly determined by time. Ji Ge's thug clearly mentioned that if there is no accident, the war will break out in the first half of the year. In fact, there will be almost no unexpected situations. Because the arms purchased by Argentina will be delivered soon and will be shipped to Buenos Aires by the end of April. Unfortunately, we are abroad, not at home, and we are even less likely to receive assistance from the General Staff. Considering the restrictions in all aspects, it is almost impossible for us to formulate a complete set of combat plans in such a short time."

"The problem is that this trick-making thug in Argentina is not feasible at all." Long Hongen was a little reluctant.

Pei Chengyi smiled slightly and said, "Tell me what you think, let's discuss it together."

"First of all, we have to be sure that no matter what Argentina's ultimate goal is and how it is prepared to achieve its goal. If we want to control the war within a range that can be accepted and tolerated, the real main force is definitely the Air Force. It can even be said that a strong Air Force can decide everything."

Pei Chengyi nodded with a smile, not denying Long Hongen's point of view.

Obviously, not everyone agreed with Long Hongen's point of view, but when the naval officers were about to speak, Dongfang Wen cast a stop look at them.

, Ten thousand

"Since air combat operations are so important, when formulating combat plans, air operations should be the main focus." Long Hongen seemed to have not noticed the expressions of others, or did not care about other people's feelings at all. "There is no doubt that when the Argentine General Staff neglected the primary and secondary when formulating combat plans, he would not say anything else. The plan mentioned that after the operation began, the air force first seized air supremacy, and then used landing ships and transport ships to send the ground troops to the Horse Island, and strive to win in the UK

The country's expeditionary fleet annihilated the garrison on the island before it arrived. Let's not look at the subsequent combat operations. If we follow this plan, even if we can send two combat brigades to the island as fast as possible, it will be difficult for the Argentine army to capture the island within a month. It may even suffer a crushing defeat in the landing operation. The result can be imagined. Britain does not even need to send an expeditionary fleet south. As long as a few attack submarines arrive in the war areas, Argentina will lose the entire war."

After listening patiently, Pei Chengyi smiled and did not rush to express his opinion.

Noticed Pei Chengyi's expression change, Long Hongen did not rush to continue.

All these officers who followed Pei Chengyi to participate in the Indian War know that if Pei Chengyi is not in a hurry to speak, it means that the problem has been discovered.

"Your point of view is basically correct, but you ignore the most critical issue, that is reality." Pei Chengyi pondered for a while before saying, "If this is our war, there is no doubt that there is no need to mobilize the navy at all, or even mobilize too much air force. After the war begins, an airborne brigade can defeat the Horse Island. The problem is that this is not our war. It is the war in Argentina. More importantly, this is the battle plan formulated by four people. From this point of view, occupying the Horse Island through conventional landing is not a big problem, or in other words, there is no better choice for Argentina. Of course, it must be admitted that conventional landing cannot be successful."

After hearing what Pei Chengyi said, Long Ji'en breathed a sigh of relief.

"In fact, the biggest problem of the thugs in this slap is here." Pei Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "After reading these materials, I have been thinking about one issue, that is, if you want to win in the most ideal way, what kind of strength does the Argentine army still lack? There is no doubt that this is a question worth our careful consideration. From the analysis of Lieutenant Colonel Long Hongen, we can see that Argentina needs an assault force, and a fast air assault force. If the force can be equipped with some armored forces, it would be ideal."

"It's not enough to have assault troops alone."

Pei Chengyi frowned slightly and looked at the army major Yang Shaoyong who suddenly spoke.

I love my heart

Unlike Long Hongen, Yang Shaoyong was originally an officer of the General Staff and worked in the combat office. When he was still a lieutenant officer, Yang Shaoyong was Pei Chengyi's subordinate. Before the Indian War, when Pei Chengyi formed the front line command, he brought Yang Shaoyong over and asked him to assist Yuan Chenhao. Unfortunately, shortly after arriving in Pakistan, Xin Guangyong broke his left leg in a car accident. When he came out of the hospital, he had already beaten half of his throat. The position he had originally prepared for him was also handed over to others. Therefore, he did not get much chance of performance. After the war, except for receiving a medal from the Republic and Pakistan, he was not promoted.

"Air assault operations require air supremacy first, and secondly, strong air transport support capabilities." Because they have known Pei Chengyi for many years, Yang Shaoyong seemed very relaxed. "In terms of air transport support, because the British Air Force does not have strategic bombers and does not have long-range fighters that can range from Pegasus Island to Pegasus Island, so before the British expeditionary fleet arrives, the Argentine Air Force can master absolute air transport support capabilities. The key is air transport support capabilities, which is also the ability that Argentina lacks the most.

.The problem of sending combat troops is not big. Even if Argentina does not have many transport aircraft, as long as it mobilizes civil aviation forces, some civil aviation passenger planes can be converted into transport aircraft for airdrop combat troops. However, civil aviation passenger planes cannot airdrop combat materials and large equipment, and it is even more impossible to use them like transport aircraft. In other words, when considering the use of armored troops, even if combat personnel can be sent to the Cabernet Island, it is difficult to provide combat support for the Argentine army's airlift force."

"Do you have a solution?" Pei Chengsang also asked very directly.

"If you do not consider large-scale introduction of transport aircraft, the only solution is to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops, and it is best to have an assault force that is good at special operations."

"There is no doubt that Argentina does not have such troops."

Yang Shaoyong smiled bitterly and didn't say more.

"But this is not a problem, we are trying to solve it." Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "After this discussion, no one mentioned maritime operations. It seems that we don't have much hope for the Argentine Navy."

"It's not that there is no hope, but that there are too many variables in maritime combat."

Pei Chengyi nodded to Navy Colonel Hu Jingan, who was speaking, and signaled him to continue speaking.

Hu Jing'an's background is similar to Long Hongen, and he reported to Pei Chengyi before the outbreak of the Indian War. Relatively speaking, in the front-line command, naval officers like Hu Jing'an did not have much chance of showing. Because throughout the war, the navy's combat operations were under the Navy's headquarters, and there was not much to do at the front-line command. The problem is that the navy made great contributions in the war, and Lin Xiaolei will be the next chief of staff, so the most naval officers were promoted after the war. How many? In the circulating words, Lin Xiaolei had to try every means to use the promotion indicators. That's right. Officers like Hu Jing'an who did not participate in fleet operations were promoted.

I love my heart

"Although I also think air combat operations and assault operations are very important, we must admit that no matter how good the battle ahead is, the three aircraft carrier battle groups of the British Navy will not always stay in Portsmouth Harbor. If Argentina wants to win, it must kill the British Expeditionary Fleet in the South Atlantic." Hu Jingan paused for a moment and said, "The strength of the Argentine Navy is indeed not satisfactory, but no one can deny the threat of the sixteen electric submarines, especially the eight more advanced "San Juan-class electric attack submarines. Even if the Argentine Air Force is the absolute main force in the attack on the British Expeditionary Fleet, as long as it can seize the opportunity, the Argentine Navy's submarines can definitely create miracles and affect the course of the war. In other words, it is not the Argentine Air Force that decides to surpass it, but the Argentine Navy's submarine force."

Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "So, we still have to count on Argentina's potential."

"It's not about expectation, but about reasonable application."

"It seems that no one wants to be absent." Pei Chengyi glanced at several officers and said, "There is no doubt that in our opinion, Argentina's combat plan and punishment is not very valuable. If we want the war to be within our control, we have to formulate a new war plan for Argentina. The so-called taking money to eliminate disasters for people. This is also our responsibility and obligation. If no one objected, Yang Shaoyong, Hu Jing'an and Long Hongen were responsible for the combat plan and punishment of land, sea and air. Dongfang Wen was responsible for the coordination between various departments and groups. The specific requirements were clear. In addition, the overall plan must be drawn up as soon as possible, and then the details must be gradually improved."

Seeing Pei Chengyi making arrangements, several famous officials concentrated on their spirits.

Next, Pei Chengyi arranged the detailed work of formulating combat plans in accordance with the war process in response to land, sea and air.

Because I have long been familiar with Pei Chengyi's way of doing things and know that the credit is not the position he holds, but the specific contribution he has made, those officers who have not been assigned to important positions have no complaints. For some officers who only want to go abroad to gilt, or see Argentina earning some extra money, finding a relatively leisurely position is the ideal choice.

After the arrangement was made, Pei Chengyi called Dongfang Wen out and gave a separate order.
