"A good lookout on the battlefield"

  ——Remember Wang Xueshan, an advanced individual in military training of the whole army, and the chief of staff of a certain rocket army

  In the early spring, a combat scenario operation under the actual combat background was carried out in full swing, and commanders at all levels worked together to find the "key" for victory.

However, after several debates, a thinking "barrier" made it impossible for everyone to start research and war thinking.

  "Commanders must be good looking observers on the battlefield." The words of Wang Xueshan, chief of staff of a certain unit of the Rocket Army, made everyone suddenly enlightened.

He said: "The future battlefield has a diversified combat force and a multi-dimensional combat space. The commander’s research on the use of troops cannot be framed by his own “old vision”. The key to victory or defeat in this battle is not in ourselves, but in whether we are good at competing with others. Military force coordination..."

  Say it as your heart’s voice.

This outstanding commander, who has made numerous contributions and ranked among the top in the Rocket Army Chief of Staff Contest, has been exploring an "out-of-the-horizon" thinking.

  At the beginning of the formation of the troops, there were many difficulties.

Wang Xueshan, then the deputy chief of staff, took the initiative to invite Ying to lead a team to develop simulation training equipment, and urge dozens of technical backbones to follow their posts in scientific research institutes to lay a solid foundation for the construction of combat effectiveness.

After serving as chief of staff, he explored the "six one set" combat capability construction supporting system based on his mission, tasks and equipment performance, including job titles, training guarantees, and training methods, and took the lead in the innovative development of two training systems to promote the formation of a variety of operations. mode.

  That year, the troops went to the plateau to carry out a live ammunition launch mission.

Wang Xueshan suggested to embed the actual combat background, load the complex electromagnetic environment, and execute the live ammunition launch mission according to the combat process.

The launch mission has become an actual combat exercise. While successfully completing the mission, the troops also sorted out the shortcomings and deficiencies in combat effectiveness building, and clarified the direction of their efforts.

  Since then, whether it is carrying out live ammunition launching missions or participating in major exercises, the Ministry has been difficult to set up special conditions and set up the environment strictly.

After repeated tempering, the "new sword" in the hands of the officers and soldiers became sharper.

Wang Xueshan continued to explore in practice, wrote 15 combat research papers, and formulated the troops' rapid action procedures to help the troops' core combat capabilities jump.

  Not long ago, the officers and soldiers of the Ministry performed a major task. According to the six types of combat plans, commanders at all levels skillfully avoided combat traps and bravely broke through combat obstacles...

  The army triumphed, and Wang Xueshan, who led the planning of the combat plan, fell into deep thought: the impermanence of soldiers and the impermanence of warfare, how to deeply tap the combat potential of new equipment and deal with the impact of the new combat style?

Questions lingered in his mind, and his eyes grew deeper.
