If the first exercise is to test the ability of the navies of various countries to fight pirates, then the exercise is to test the true nature of the Marines of various countries to deal with maritime terrorist attacks. There is no doubt that the main "actors" are still the Republic Marines and the United States Marines.

If you lose the first round, the US military will definitely not want to lose the second round.

In order to get the "good time and place", the "Joint Military Exercise Coordination Organization Committee" controlled by the US military not only changed the exercise location from Rota Island to Port Apula in Guam, which increased the complexity of the exercise. It also replaced the USS Saipan amphibious assault ship with a thug docked in Port Atula, which increased the difficulty of the exercise. More importantly, the exercise rules were adjusted, and the Republic and the United States Marine Corps took turns to play "terrorists" in turn

In response, Suo Xianglong, the commander-in-chief of the Republic's exercise, expressed strong dissatisfaction.

Temporary adjustment of exercise plans is not a problem. After all, exercises must be close to actual combat. The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, and changes will change at any time. Temporary adjustment of exercise plans is also part of the exercise. The problem is that the arrangement of "terrorists" puts the Republic Marines in a very unfavorable position. Familiar with the new environment is a trivial matter. The officers and soldiers of the Republic Marines participating in the exercise have all experienced the test of war. They are all heroes who are one to be a hundred. Compared with the exercise field, the environment on the battlefield is more complex. The key is the matching issue, to be precise, the matching issue when the US military plays a "terrorist".

The Republic Marines play the role of "terrorists" but only deal with the challenges of the Marines of several countries at the same time, because the strength of the Marines of other countries is not as strong as the US military. Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the temporary "rescue troops" will be reduced. The American Marines play the role of "terrorists" will be coordinated with the Marines of other countries. Not to mention Suo Yanglong's dissatisfaction, even the Marine Commander Colonel Liu Rui feels very dissatisfied. Not to mention anything else, if the Marines of any country deliberately drag their legs down during exercises, the Republic Marines will definitely not be able to laugh the last time.

If you are dissatisfied, the exercise will still be carried out.

After coordination, both sides made a step forward, that is, when the US Marines played a "terrorist" role, the Republic Marines carried out the rescue mission alone.

Although the situation is still not ideal, the woman was already very satisfied.

As long as you are not dragged by others, there is no need for Liu Rui to worry.

During the Half-Ukrainian War, the airborne troops defeated the American Marine Corps. Will the Marine Corps, which pay more attention to personal combat effectiveness, be defeated by the American Marine Corps?

Liu Rui overlooked a problem: What he had to face was not the US Marine Corps, but the "Naval Seals"

The two rounds of exercises were decided by lottery, and Liu Rui drew the draw, and the Republic Marines played the role of a "terrorist"

According to the rules formulated by the "Coordination Organization Committee", this round of exercise focuses on the "secret infiltration" and "fast disposal" capabilities of participating troops. During the exercise, the "rescue troops" must infiltrate the hijacked ships within the specified time, subdue the "terrorists" on the ship to exclude bombs placed by "terrorists". If the "rescue operations" take more than the specified time, or the "terrorists" detonate the bomb, or the "hijacked personnel" have any casualties, the "rescue operations" will be completely failed. In order to be closer to actual combat, the "rescue troops" can only be dispatched after the "terrorists" board the ship and set up the bombs.

Very demanding and very difficult.

After changing into the "uniform" specially prepared for "terrorists", Liu Rui led the officers and soldiers of the Liming Marines on board. From then on, Liu Rui could not obtain external information. At least he could not obtain any information related to the "rescue operation", and he must be ready to deal with the sudden arrival of "rescue troops" at any time.

The US military only dispatched one, "Seal" said, the nickname commando.

It’s not that “seals” underestimate the enemy, but that “seals” have enough confidence and strength.

As the most famous special forces of the US military, the "Seal" is different from the "Triangle State Green Beret" and the "Special Aircraft Vessel" are a special forces that attach special importance to individual soldiers' capabilities and military qualities and do not rely too much on advanced equipment. It is obvious that the "Seal" is very similar to the Special Forces of the General Staff of the Republic, and both put the capabilities of soldiers first, and even the most advanced weapons and equipment are also auxiliary.

quantity.

That's why for decades, the scale of "seals" has been very limited, at most, and at least, it will not be lower than that of the thugs and the field people. It's not that "seals" do not want to expand their troops, but that the recruitment requirements of "seals" are too productive and have too large elimination rates, and cannot find enough excellent soldiers.

Marines like Liu Rui don’t know how powerful the "Seal" is, so Lu Chengwen, commander of the General Staff Special Forces, is different.

As early as many years ago, Lu Chengwen led the Republic's special forces to fight against the "Seals" several times in Afghanistan. Each battle had its own victory and defeat, and his strength was equal. No one doubted Lu Chengwen's ability. The super special forces brought out by Xiang Yinghui not only personally participated in the entire construction process of the Republic's modern special forces, but also participated in hundreds of battles of all sizes. He was never injured in the battle, nor suffered a crushing defeat. Although Lu Chengwen never thought that "seals" were "small special forces. But in his life, the only opponent he really admired was the lack of ships" was the only opponent.

"Rescue Operation" belongs to "closed exercises". It is difficult for the community to know about it.

The eight regulations say that the nickname "seal" disembarks on time, and the famous "terrorist" became prisoners of war without exception.

The Republic Marines led by Liu Rui lost a lot and were completely.

After the exercise, it was clearly mentioned in the exercise report submitted by Liu Rui to the Marine Command that the "Seal"'s individual combat effectiveness is far above the Republic Marine Corps, and both sides are not at the same level.

This is true. The "Seal" is an elite special forces, while the Marines are ordinary combat forces.

In other words, if Liu Rui's Marines were asked to deal with Lu Chengwen's special forces, the result would not be much worse.

Next, the two sides exchanged roles, with the Republic Marines playing the "rescue force".

The results of the exercise have not changed. Before Liu Rui found the final "terrorist", the "Seal" successfully "detonated" the bomb, resulting in the complete failure of the "rescue" operation.

The Republic Marines were defeated by Jie Gen, but it was not a shame.

Although the Western news media led by the deletion reported this, as if this was not an exercise, but a real war. The US military, which had been defeated before, fought a beautiful turnaround, most news media led by Al Jazeera made a very objective assessment of this round of exercise. They believed that the two sides were not at the same level of combat force at all, and the Republic Marines lost it was not unfair. If you look at the details of the exercise, you can also find that the combat effectiveness of the Republic Marines far exceeds that of the American Marines. The reason is very simple. It took a full 8 hours to subdue the Republic Marines. The Republic Marines were only a little short of subduing the "Seals" in the same time. If the Republic's special forces fought against the American Marines, the American Marines would definitely lose even more ugly.

Although Al Jazeera has always been inclined toward the republic, its comments are remarkable.

After the two showdowns, Lieutenant General Lu Chengwen personally led the special forces directly under the General Staff of the Republic to participate in the "Multi-Country Joint Military Exercise of International Security in the Pacific Rim". Not only did he easily defeat the US Marine Corps during the exercise, but he also defeated the arrogant "Seal" in the simulated confrontation exercise and regained the title of "strongest special forces".

As China-US military exchanges become more and more in-depth, various exercises and military competitions have become a big stage for soldiers from both countries.

After several consecutive defeats to the special forces directly under the General Staff of the Republic, the "Seal" not only increased the training intensity, but also formed a force for joint military exercises and international military competitions to deal with the special forces of the Republic.

In comparison, the special forces directly under the General Staff of the Republic not only did not deliberately increase the training intensity because they had combat tasks at any time, but also did not form troops that specialize in joint military exercises and international military competitions. Each time, officers and soldiers were drawn from troops that had rotation rest or had no combat tasks.

Who is stronger and who is weak is clear at a glance.

Of course, the Republic Marines were not useless. In the exercise two years later, the Republic Marines defeated the American Marines with an absolute advantage and avenged their past shame.

The biggest inspiration this exercise brought to the Republic and the U.S. military is that the special forces are not tens of thousands

!

If it were not restricted by exercise rules, the Republic Marines, which plays a terrorist, could detonate bombs after the Seal boarded the ship, instead of waiting for a few hours to give the Seal enough combat time. It can be seen that when dealing with extremist forces, the combat capability of the special forces still has many shortcomings. On the contrary, in the head-on confrontation, the advantages of the special forces are not

Show.

Affected by this exercise, the special forces of the Republic and the United States have undergone a transformation.

Both countries realize that special forces must be "stronger, faster and more refined" not only can perform tasks that ordinary combat troops cannot complete in war, but also have the advantageous combat power to overwhelm the enemy in asymmetric confrontation. Only in this way can special forces defend national interests and protect national security on special battlefields.

In contrast to special forces, conventional combat forces such as the Marine Corps no longer require special combat capabilities.

The primary task of conventional combat forces is not to deal with extremist forces such as pirates and terrorists, and there is no need to take on the battlefield with the enemy's special forces. The mission of conventional combat forces is only one: to perform combat tasks in regular wars and play their due role.

The segmentation of combat forces is an inevitable trend in military development and an inevitable result of technological progress.

The essence of military art is to use various military forces reasonably, rather than letting a "universal" military force perform all military tasks. In fact, there has never been a "universal" military force. No matter how powerful the special forces are, they cannot replace conventional combat forces, and it is even more impossible to dominate the outcome of war alone.

After the second round of exercises, the Republic and the United States returned to the same starting line.

The final outcome depends on the third round of exercise.
