Pei Chengyi of Liuran was the main guide for the overall plan of the second military reform. He asked the city to participate in the specific reform planning work, so on the way to Gwadar Port, he focused on the information sent by Li Cunxun, especially those information on military construction results.

As we all know, Wang Yuanqing finally pushed Gu Weimin to the throne of the head of state. A very important reason was that he wanted to use Gu Weimin's strength to complete the third military reform. In a sense, Wang Yuanqing did not even expect Gu Weimin to promote political reform. In fact, if we want to further promote political reform, the first thing we need to do is to complete military reform, that is, to change the fundamental attributes of the army. Only when military reform achieves little success can we raise the democratic political system of the Republic to a new level. Mu Yong doubted that the third military reform would take enough time, and it may not be possible to complete it in Gu Weimin's old term. In this case, Wang Yuanqing left the important task of promoting political reform to Yan Jingyu, and tried every means to ensure Yan Jingyu's status in the central government. It is not difficult to understand.

Looking at the entire Republic, I'm afraid no one is more suitable to promote military reform than Gu Weimin.

As Zhao Rundong's favorite student, the former Minister of National Defense of the Republic, Gu Weimin spent the first half of his life in the office of the Ministry of National Defense, and was the second head of state who came from the Ministry of National Defense since Zhao Rundong. Although Gu Weimin is not exactly the same as Zhao Rundong, at least he is not a military minister and has not even had experience in military service, working in the Ministry of National Defense for several years has made him very familiar with the military system of the Republic and very clear about the problems of the Republic's military. In fact, the third military reform is also one of Gu Weimin's political achievements.

In addition to subjective willingness and ability, objectively, Gu Weimin also has the necessity to promote military reform. Not to mention, if Gu Weimin wants to get rid of Wang Yuanqing's influence, he must first gain the trust and support of the army, and to achieve this goal. The most direct way is to complete military reform and use military reform to put his own endurance in the army. Although this will weaken the significance of military reform to a certain extent, it can ensure that the smooth progress of military reform can be maximized. To put it simply, as long as Gu Weimin does not want to be a bad person for thousands of years and becomes a national scum, he must agree with the general policy of military reform proposed by Wang Yuanqing and move in the right direction.

It is precisely because under the leadership of Gu Weimin, the third military reform made many people "take a blind eye." The address of this site has been changed to: Xiaolian Aopeng, please log in to Yuandu.

It can be said that those who believe that the Republic's military strength is declining are affected by Gu Weimin. There are three specific reasons. First, everyone knows that Gu Weimin was famous for reducing national defense spending when he served as Minister of Defense and fought against the General Staff. Second, Gu Weimin was originally a management talent who was very good at computing. His most outstanding talent is to make rational use of every penny. Third, under the leadership and promotion of Gu Weimin, the third military reform quickly became "equipment reform." A large number of equipment development profits were abolished or suspended.

Not to mention that outsiders don’t understand, even many soldiers from the Republic do not understand.

Although the overall policy of the third military reform was decided by Wang Yuanqing, because Wang Yuanqing had an unparalleled prestige and status in the army, before he left the head of state, whether it was a general or a soldier, he could only complain at most. It was impossible to blatantly oppose military reform, but Wang Yuanqing looked very much like Ji Youguo. After leaving office, he no longer involved in national affairs. No one knew his whereabouts except the Military Intelligence Director who was responsible for the security of the head of state. Therefore, when Gu Weimin continued to promote military reform, even Lin Xiaolei began to be dissatisfied.

According to the information provided by Li Cunxun, as early as the beginning of the Daobi year, the Republic adopted a cross-year fiscal year system since the Blade Year. That is, each fiscal year was thug from July of that year. If it weren't for Ye Zhisheng's reconciliation, and Yan Shanglong did not care about national defense, Lin Xiaolei would have turned against the Ministry of National Defense, that is, turned against Gu Weimin. In the end, the Navy's aircraft carrier safety plan was preserved, but the equipment development plan of other military branches was affected, and the Army suffered particularly heavy losses.

In fact, the Army was the most injured in the third military reform.

From the beginning, Wang Yuanqing planned a reform plan to change the military force structure by the army on a large scale. Before Wang Yuanqing left the head of the capital, the army took the lead in completing the first round of reforms under the leadership of Xiang Yinghui, and laid off most of the ten thousand officers and soldiers, including second-line troops and reserve troops, setting a foundation for the entire military reform. It can be said that if Xiang Yinghui had not been in charge, he would have encountered problems from the beginning of the third military reform.

The army was reduced to the size of the tone by Wei, and not to mention that others did not understand it, even Pei Chengyi did not understand it.

The Republic is the world's largest country with a land area, a second in total population, and a second in length in the border. It also has the largest economic strength in the world. It is not an exaggeration to maintain an army of about 10,000 people. Even if foreign combat is not considered, hundreds of thousands of troops are required to defend the territory. Although according to the rules of the third military reform, the task of guarding the border will be reorganized by the armed police forces in the third military reform and become a regular reserve force similar to the US National Guard. The task of the regular army is only

Win wars that may break out at any time, but from the perspective of world powers, Liuhe Country has enough reason to maintain an army of more than 10,000 people. In fact, at the heyday of expansion, its total army was more than 10,000, and even once approached the thugs. Forty thousand included the National Guard who carried out combat missions on the front line. Even in peacetime, that is, after the end of the Iranian War, the US Army's strength was about 10,000. It was then gradually reduced to less than 10,000. After the end of the Syrian-Israel war, the scale of the US Army began to expand again. According to the intelligence provided by the Military Intelligence Bureau, by the end of the year, the actual strength of the US Army had already been

It has recovered to about Tian Wan, and it is still increasing. Although the United States is likely to be preparing for war, after all, the pace of modern warfare is astonishingly fast. If we cannot prepare before the war and mobilize after the war breaks out, the war will probably end before the recruited troops complete the basic training. However, it can also be seen that the strength of the Republic's army is very tight. In fact, in addition to the differences in population size, the Republic is very similar to the United States in terms of the basic conditions for determining the strength of the country. The United States has reason to maintain an army with a size of nearly 10,000. Why can't the Republic increase its strength?

It can be said that in the early stages of the third military reform, the reduction of the total army's strength was controversial.

Although Pei Chengyi admired Wang Yuanqing very much and firmly believed that Wang Yuanqing would not make serious mistakes on such a major issue. Based on the specific measures of the third military reform, he believed that Wang Yuanqing had found a way to make up for the problem caused by the lack of military strength, but it was not until he saw the information provided by Li Cunxun that he fully believed that Wang Yuanqing had indeed found a solution, and it was much more ideal than he had expected before.

In response to the lack of military strength, Wang Yuanqing made efforts in three aspects.

It is the military reserve system mentioned above. According to the Defense Blue Book released by the State Council of the Republic in Yo-Yuan, although the third military reform has had a wide impact, it did not cause a serious decline in the defense strength of the Republic as most people expected.

With the establishment and improvement of the military force system of the "Urgent Mobilization Mechanism in the Ten Reserve Forces of Regular Army", the Republic's Army's combat effectiveness is still the best in the world, far exceeding the US Army and the Russian Army. More importantly, in response to the reserve forces and the emergency mobilization mechanism, the Republic has established a very complete equipment reserve system. On the premise of ensuring the combat effectiveness of the troops, the equipment equipped for the front-line troops has decreased by about one-third compared to the past, and the equipment equipped for the second-line combat troops has decreased by two-thirds compared to the past. According to the estimates of Jane's Defense Weekly, the strength of the Republic's Army is in the first-line troops.

The previous seven armies were actually organized into internal jin, combat brigade, old jin, artillery brigade and old support brigade far exceed the ground forces of the same size in other countries, and have the ability to win a large-scale regional war or two small-scale local wars. If the force is insufficient, the Republic Army can still invest about the second-line troops without any preparation, and mobilize the Aowan Reserve troops within a month. With a total investment of nearly 00,000, the Republic Army has the ability to win any size of regional wars. Only under the threat of a world war can further mobilize.

It can be seen that the military reserve system gives the Republic's army very flexible response measures. In different situations, the Republic's army can adopt different response methods to maximize the control of the army size. Because the backbone force of the army is not affected, the combat effectiveness of the army will not decline seriously. If you read the most important chapter, choose the Tears Book.

The second is more secure military treatment.

As early as the first military reform implemented by Ji Youguo, the treatment of the Republic's soldiers exceeded the social average. With the glorious victory, the social and local people of the Republic's soldiers also reached an unprecedented level. In the third military reform, the treatment of the soldiers and local people were once again improved.

According to the service contract signed by the Army and all officers and soldiers: In the past, only if the minimum service life period of receiving pensions can you obtain a pension after retirement. If you retire early, you can only receive a one-time subsidy based on the life-long pension. According to a certain proportion, it is relatively much worse than the life-long pension. Taking the Army Captain as an example, if you retire after the old year of service, you can only receive a subsidy of about 10,000 yuan, and the service owner will retire after the year of service, you can receive a pension of nearly 10,000 yuan per month; after the third military reform, if a soldier does not reach the minimum service period, you can sign an "emergency recruitment contract" with the army when you retire, that is, when the country launches an emergency mobilization.

The corresponding call for the case can be used to receive pensions for a certain proportion of life. The army captain can serve as an example. After retirement after 0 years, the special subsidy for force blocks can be received every month. The retirement age of the army captain is generally around the wu year, which is obviously much better than the previous one-time subsidy of 10,000 yuan. This treatment not only brings benefits to the soldiers, but also brings benefits to the army. Not to mention, the army can raise fewer officers and more non-commissioned officers in normal times. In addition to the relatively low allowance of non-commissioned officers, the role of non-commissioned officers in grassroots units is also significantly greater than that of low-level officers. In other words, the expenses saved by laying off soldiers can be used to support more non-commissioned officers, so that the army can quickly expand when necessary.

In addition to treatment, the social status of soldiers is also very important. During the reform, Wang Yuanqing clearly mentioned that soldiers are the backbone of the country and should have a small social status. This is exactly the case. Although many soldiers are dissatisfied with many of the contents of the third beer, not many people really opposed it. According to the solution mentioned by Wang Yuanqing in the early stage of the reform, all retired soldiers, regardless of whether they have signed an emergency recruitment contract with the army, have the right to enjoy the advanced technical training provided by the government before returning to society. That is to say, as long as they are willing to retire early, they can get a transaction.

Skill training and compensation are spent two to three years in colleges and universities. In fact, among the soldiers who retired from Tiannian to Mimi, nearly 80% of them spent three years learning and mastering labor skills, and gradually integrated into society from Libinian to Lili, making significant contributions to the economic construction of the Republic. More importantly, the army is a disciplined army. Soldiers who have lived in the army for several years are born to put discipline first. After these soldiers participated in social labor, many of them found a suitable lifestyle, and many of them became backbone forces in all walks of life.

: It is a more advanced weapon and equipment. To summarize the experience of the Indian War, Mao was taught. The Republic Army clearly mentioned that being able to defeat more than 20 times of the enemy with the Tianwan ground troops was a crucial role. If there were no large number of advanced weapons and equipment, not only would the casualties increase several times, but it would also be possible to lose the war, or the Republic authorities ended the war before winning.

In a sense, this is the most technical reform in the history of the Republic's army. Relatively speaking, the first two military reforms focus on decentralization for the army, that is, changing the situation where the army is dominant, leaving more room for development for the air force and the navy. In particular, the second military reform determined that the commanders of the army's three forces took turns to serve as the chief of staff, so that the army's influence would decline sharply after the year of strength. The decline in land does not mean that the army is not important. In any case, the geographical location of the Republic is far inferior to that of the United States. It is even less than that of Canada, Australia, Brazil and other countries. In the context of many Western countries being able to become overlords through maritime power, the Republic will never give up its land power. In fact, as long as the threat from the north does not disappear, the Republic must place land power in the most important position. In this way, in order to safeguard the advantages of land power, the Republic can only find ways to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army.

Mu Yong doubted that when the overall position of the army dropped, the only way to ensure combat effectiveness is advanced equipment. If you read the most important chapter, choose the tears book. Stop the awkward Peng, Qiquan.

The problem is that reducing military expenditure and reducing military projects are one of the key points of the third military reform. In this way, the Republic's Army can only settle for the second best and constantly propose various concepts of equipment development.

In fact, this is very similar to the US Army that drew the beginning of the century.

At that time, the US military was affected by the Afghan War and the Iraq War. Although there were hundreds of billions of national defense spending and trillions of war spending each year, most of the money was used in wars, and the funds that could be used to develop weapons and purchase weapons were very limited. In order to lead the trend of military development, the US had to make a fuss about concepts and put forward several completely different development concepts in just the past years.

After the Indian War Cluster, the Republic's Army also embarked on this path of development.

Before Beng, the Republic Army proposed three completely different development models. One is the "lightweight" initiated by Xiang Yinghui. The second is the "airing" proposed by the Army Command in the Year is actually the advanced stage of lightweight. Most of the necessary work has been implemented, and the implementation difficulty is close to zero. The third is the "artificial intelligence" proposed by the Ministry of Defense at the beginning of the year. No matter what "transformation." is actually a hype. The main purpose is to lead the development trend of the army and force opponents to follow and cannot surpass it.

History has long proved that it is impossible to surpass your opponents if you can only follow. The only way to surpass is innovation. In a sense, the Republic’s Army was able to surpass the US Army and fought against Shenwei in the Peninsula War. Innovation played a crucial role. More importantly, the “artificial intelligence” proposed by the Ministry of Defense has not been implemented in fact. The reason is very simple. The investment is too large and exceeds the military budget.

For the Army, the biggest advantage of hyping up the concept is that it can take the opportunity to develop new equipment.

In fact, when any equipment is difficult to obtain support, only by using the concept of hype can we obtain the necessary funds for R&D equipment. Not only the army is doing this, but the air force is doing this, and even the powerful navy and the highly-watched sky army are doing this.

More importantly, it is not only the government that contributes to military construction, but also the major arms collections.

.

Pei Chengyi had little knowledge of this. As far as he knew, in the years after the third military reform began, Sanjian Group alone had "free" assistance to the Republic Army of tens of billions of scientific research funds. If we included the "free" assistance provided by other arms companies, the Republic Army had obtained about about about the scientific research funds in these years. Including the revenue from selling second-hand equipment and helping other countries train military personnel, the Army invested at least thugs in equipment development. Although this amount of money is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for large-scale procurement of weapons and equipment, it is of crucial significance to the development of several key equipment.
