Chen Ming stood in the crowd and dealt with it calmly. Even though he was young, he did not show any stage fright.
It’s just that I have long been secretly complaining in my heart, Damn, you are all glorious and righteous images, it’s my turn, a hat as big as a bandit leader is buckled on my head with a bang.
In fact, it is somewhat incompatible with the training class.
There were many officers at the scene whose expressions changed slightly, but they quickly covered it up with smiles. Chen Ming probably didn't know many of them, but when it came to the bandit leader of the Great Training Army, he was a well-known name.
But what surprised them was not this, but the fact that the bandit leader became the grandson-in-law of Mr. Chai, the political commissar of the war zone.
The colonels present were not of the same rank as the generation promoted by Mr. Chai. They basically did not attend the wedding, so they had never seen Chen Ming.
Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean you haven't heard it. In order to be more recognizable, Chen Ming's label to the outside world has long been called a bandit.
This is not a mockery. If you dare to bring a battalion of firepower and go deep into the hinterland of the Blue Army of the Southern Xinjiang Military Region to cause trouble, you don't have the courage, control of timing and command ability to even think about it.
This one out of hundreds of thousands of people in the entire war zone is enough to illustrate the problem.
As for Chai Yansong's grandson-in-law, they couldn't bring it up in front of so many people. Even if everyone knew about it, they wouldn't say it.
After all, the training class has just started, so mentioning this is a bit like saying that people are taking a back door.
Fat Colonel Zhao Shenghu showed a look of surprise on his face, looked Chen Ming up and down, and couldn't help but praise him: "I have long heard that the chief staff officer of the Tiger Wolf Battalion of the 71st Army is very good at fighting, and he is very young, but I didn't expect you. You are so young, you are so promising."
Chen Ming's name was not well-known in the 73rd Army, but Zhao Shenghu's rank was there. He often reported work to the leaders of other military regions or war zones, and traveled between military regions and war zones.
Naturally, I have heard something about Chen Ming.
But what I heard the most, besides various deeds, was that many people said that he was very young. How young he was exactly, Zhao Shenghu couldn't guess before.
But thinking about it, it should be around thirty.
After all, this is a military camp, not a university. You are just like a general, and if you can make a name for yourself, you are almost thirty years old.
People in their twenties have barely grown all their hair. In their level, they are usually excluded.
Now that he met the real owner, he realized that he was really just a young man in his twenties, which really shocked Zhao Shenghu.
Li Chaoyang also looked at Chen Ming with admiration, and reached out to squeeze his thick shoulders. He laughed and said, "You are truly a hero. I noticed you when you came to class just now."
"But I didn't expect that you are the famous chief staff officer of the Tiger Wolf Battalion."
"Thick, quite powerful arms." Li Chaoyang patted his shoulders and shook his head with emotion: "If we push this forward more than ten years, you will definitely be a good hand in the stormtroopers."
"Yes, I have heard about Chen Ming for a long time, but I can only see him today."
Everyone also praised Chen Ming's youth, and most of them echoed the words. Most people didn't talk about his abilities.
After all, Chen Ming is also a veteran who has been working hard in the workplace for decades. From the complimentary tone of these people, we can guess that they should know about his wedding.
Even if he didn't say it, some people would think that he had gone through the back door.
This is hard to avoid.
It's just that at this level, no one will make themselves uncomfortable and really speak out what's on their mind.
Facing the praises from many officers, Chen Ming seemed particularly humble and said to everyone: "Seniors, thank you for your praise. I still have many shortcomings and need to learn from you."
This senior voice made many people laugh into their hearts.
After all, even if they are a little bit small at heart, Chen Ming's contribution, ability, and background are all here.
There is such a powerful young man calling him senior, and suddenly he seems to have become more powerful too.
After introducing each other and laughing for a while, everyone began to discuss based on the latest strategic assault division situation.
The positions were not equal, the information was not equal, and Chen Ming couldn't get a word in even though he was standing there.
All of his information came from Wang Lu, and what he got was very limited. He would only tell him if it was related to the Third Battalion.
He didn't know many other important things, such as the strategic assault division's framework, logistics, garrison locations, organization, and firepower deployment.
Now listening to the discussion of this group of people, most of the information that was unclear before has been integrated, and we have a general understanding of the decisions above.
But what surprised him even more was that the time limit given by the military department for this training at the National Defense University was three years. Some people would go back to work in the middle, and some would continue to stay here.
There will also be new officers coming, and some people have even focused on grassroots internships, sending trainees to any combat unit in the five theaters to serve in grassroots positions for assessment.
The instructions given above are very simple. When forming the Blue Army, you cannot start from the old ideas. You must be difficult, strict, and start from a new starting point.
The future blue army division of the theater should be fully formed from the grassroots level. Some cadres have sat in the same position for too long, and their thinking and abilities are not necessarily better than those of the new era soldiers.
Only by understanding the grassroots and starting from the difficulties can we build a better combat force.
Chen Ming didn't know who made the suggestion, but one thing was certain, it was definitely someone with a high position and who didn't have to go to the grassroots level to do such a thing.
From some theoretical points of view, this proposal is correct, but after all, it is wrong, and Chen Ming cannot make changes.
During the conversation, Chen Ming was completely marginalized because he didn't know much and what he knew was too limited. Almost all the listeners did not express any opinions.
In addition to this training, although there are currently many vacant positions in the Strategic Assault Division, there are only a few major positions that are truly attractive.
Who can take up an important position depends on how well they have studied this time. If the assessment results are too poor, they will basically be on the sidelines.
At first, everyone just discussed, but in the end, it was just analysis, and everyone made recommendations. The appointment of the strategic assault division has not yet been announced. Basically, the important positions were confirmed by these few people while talking and laughing.
Of course, no one is sure for themselves, they all rely on the praise of those around them. Although they also hope that they can be elected, no one will say it openly.
The atmosphere is a bit subtle.
Just saying that every time they hear people who support them say what position they are most likely to hold, they are still very happy in their hearts.
After all, establishing a strategic assault division in a theater is a very rare opportunity. If you perform well, this will be the best springboard.
Even if the performance is not good, the upper limit of division-level combat units will be higher than that of brigade-level combat units.
People were preaching there, but Chen Ming looked a little out of place standing on the outside of the crowd. There was nothing he could do, no one was preaching to him.
After listening for a long time, Chen Ming grinned and scratched his chin. After all, the first unit of the Strategic Assault Division was the Tiger Wolf Battalion, and he came out of the Tiger Wolf Battalion. How come when a group of people arranged their shifts, there was not even a regiment-level staff officer? Arrange one for him.
It seems that you still have to fight for it yourself.
Although this kind of conversation is useless, in the end, what matters is the results, but no one supports me, so I am still a little disappointed.
This suddenly aroused Chen Ming's inner desire to win.
Originally, he didn't want to be a conspicuous person. When he first entered the military camp, he had no choice. In order to attract more attention and obtain more resources, he had to do everything possible to stand out.
But later he accumulated enough knowledge and just needed to do his job well. It had been a long time since he had been a conspicuous bag.
I won’t pretend anymore today, I still have to act like one.
Chen Ming thought angrily in his heart that Zhao Lifei, the squad leader of the recruit company, once told him that as long as you have the ability when you come to the army, don't think about hiding it.
If you have talent, display it and let people above you see and pay attention to it. Otherwise, if there are more than a hundred people in the company, who can you expect to peel away your ordinary appearance and discover your valuable essence?
Isn't that ridiculous?
Just at this moment, the class bell rang, and everyone who had been talking a moment quickly returned to their seats, and all the sounds in the classroom disappeared.
Each and every one of the incomparably majestic officers who had just pointed out the country was as well-behaved as an ordinary elementary school student at this moment.
He didn't even dare to change his original position and sat back down.
There is no way. After all, in addition to the final exam, there are many factors during the further training at the National Defense University, including daily performance, which will also be included in the assessment as usual points.
This normal score even accounts for 40% of the final theoretical exam, which means that as long as you perform well and don't write a word during the assessment, you can get at least 40 points.
This score is not passing, but with the blessing of normal scores, wouldn't it be too easy if you want to pass?
This kind of regulation is aimed at this group of senior officers to prevent anyone from being disobedient during the learning process, not paying attention to the lectures, and wasting this opportunity for further training.
When everyone returned to their seats, Yang Fengrui, the instructor who had just lectured, returned to the podium again and said with a smile on his face: "I'm sorry, comrades, due to the uneven distribution of instructors, I will give the next lecture. .”
"We have just had a lesson on "Army Operations". I wonder what opinions you have about this lesson?"
"The advanced training class is about debate, not rigid teaching. Is there a leader or comrade who can express his opinion?"
As soon as Yang Fengrui finished speaking, Chen Ming opened his densely packed notebook with a conspicuous smile on his face.
He has a good memory and has sorted it out in his mind several times when recording.
But when others heard the same question, they couldn't help but look at each other.
Although everyone just listened to the same class, listening to the class is listening, and recording is recording. Many contents have not been organized in a general way. Just now after class, I was bragging about it. I promised that the instructor would be replaced. Now I suddenly ask this, who doesn’t? Confused?
Seeing that no one in the audience answered, the conductor Yang Fengrui also felt a little embarrassed.
If he was teaching ordinary students, he would also give two reminders: During the break just now, you should carefully organize the teacher's lectures and don't think about having fun all day long. "Bala bala blah blah blah blah."
But facing officers of the same rank as him, all of whom were older than him, Yang Fengrui felt grateful that these people did not cause trouble in class, as he could not really fight against them.
But my question has been asked. If no one responds to this link, the teaching record will write down all this link. If it reaches the ears of Vice President Lin Qingyuan, it will not be as simple as silence.
Yang Fengrui understood, and so did the other officers attending the lecture.
Just when everyone was looking at each other and Yang Fengrui looked a little embarrassed, Chen Ming slowly raised his hand with a smile on his lips.
At this moment, Yang Fengrui seemed to have seen a savior. On the first day of class, the class was quiet. Dozens of leading students could not answer the questions. After all, this would not sound good.
Without even thinking about it, Yang Fengrui pointed at Chen Ming and said, "Comrade, you answer."
Chen Ming was sitting relatively far back. After the instructor's words came out, a group of officers in the front row turned to look at Chen Ming, who was sitting in the back row.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, young people's brains are really good. Just now after class, everyone was bragging about it. Now in class, people can answer questions directly. Their brains work really fast.
It's a pity that he is too young, has too little experience in the army, has no competitive ability, and has not caught up with the good times.
But Chen Ming doesn't care about this. He strictly insists on being a conspicuous bag, so he must be qualified.
At this time, he slowly stood up from his seat, without even looking at his notebook, and replied with a smile: "Battle studies is a discipline that studies the laws of battles and guides professional practice. It is an important part of military academics. It "Between strategy and tactics"
Chen Ming stared at the instructor and began to speak out the contents of the Army Campaign Study like a lotus flower.
Some are the contents of his notebook, and some are the materials he consulted when he participated in the sword-sharpening project at the National University of Defense Technology, as well as the contents of some topics.
How could he not understand battle studies when he had to do a project? Considering the information he had consulted in the past and the contents of seven groups of research topics he had brought, he could not become a senior scholar in the course of battle studies.
At least it is easy to draw inferences from one instance and explain which battle cases in modern history meet the requirements based on the knowledge in the subject.
Not only the army's combat science, but also the navy and air force are not out of the question.
Public opinion warfare and cyber warfare were his areas of specialization at that time, and now he regards them as examples and begins to list them one by one.
Yang Fengrui couldn't help but nod his head after listening to Chen Ming's analysis, with a smile on his face for the first three minutes.
I thought to myself, young students are good. They have a more flexible mind and have a wide range of contacts. They can draw inferences from one instance to other cases. Everyone can understand the problems he didn't talk about just now. This is a real academic master.
But after five minutes, Yang Fengrui's face became a little uneasy.
Because Chen Ming was still talking at this time, and it was no longer as simple as drawing inferences from one instance or giving examples.
He began to analyze the subject of Army Campaigns carefully, and completely explained all the content he had prepared for the next class and what needed to be taught in the next class.
What shocked him even more.
When Chen Ming talked about these things, he didn't even need to look at the lesson plans or his own notes. He just raised his head and dictated.
The officers sitting in the front row kept flipping through their notebooks, trying to find where Chen Ming had talked.
But the more I turned, the more confused I became.
The bits of content recorded in their notebooks were all finished a minute ago.
For the cases mentioned later, Yang Fengrui has not prepared lesson plans yet. Where can they find them?
Forehead.
Um.
what's the situation?
Did the last class teach so much about army campaigns?
The officers sitting in the classroom were a little messy.
If he remembered correctly, Yang Fengrui probably didn't talk so much, let alone such profound content. The strategic assault division mainly targeted the army troops.
The Navy and the Air Force cannot be involved in teaching, at least in the first class. Where did Chen Ming hear about this?
They were confused, but Chen Ming was not confused, and he became more and more enthusiastic as he talked.
Ten minutes later, a quarter of the class had passed. Chen Ming's mouth was a little dry, but he was still talking and giving examples, which seemed to make sense.
After all, combat science is a very lengthy subject. He has been at the National University of Defense Technology for more than half a year and has been busy checking out information and doing projects. He has not even covered 1% of the things in his mind. It’s over.
The students didn't understand, and the instructor Yang Fengrui didn't understand either. He was already full of shock.
Damn it, my knowledge reserve is already on par with him, and even a little higher.
It's not that he is good at theory, but he is really talented at giving examples. Every theory can be inserted into an example of a war in modern history.
If he hadn't prepared lesson plans in advance, he would never have been able to teach so much in one breath.
Fifteen minutes later, Chen Ming was still talking.
Yang Fengrui was completely stunned. This was advanced training, and it was different from an ordinary classroom. He could not directly interrupt the students' narrations.
Twenty minutes later, half of the class was over, and Chen Ming's theory was not over yet. Yang Fengrui had no choice but to report the situation here to Vice President Lin Qingyuan over the phone.
Thirty minutes later.
Three-quarters of the class had passed when Vice Dean Lin Fengyuan walked into the classroom with his hands behind his back. He sat down in front of him and stared at Chen Ming without saying a word or stopping him.
Instead, sit there and listen.
The other students in class must behave at this time. With the deputy dean sitting here, they really don't dare to remain shocked and confused.
Even though they were confused, everyone quickly opened their notebooks and started taking notes frantically. Even if they only had a partial understanding of what they heard, they would just remember what they heard.
I always felt that what Chen Ming said was much more profound and involved a wider range of things than the instructor. Even if there was no deputy dean here to watch, the record must be recorded. What if there is a test in the future?
Chen Ming knows how to memorize it now, so why don't you worry?
The instructor Yang Fengrui was more direct. He simply took the lesson plan and sat next to Chen Ming. While paying attention to the teacup on the table and adding water to him, he frantically took notes on his own lesson plan.
Because at this time, the content of Chen Ming's lecture had already exceeded the scope of his lesson preparation.
If he wants to prepare for subsequent courses, he will also need to read countless materials and documents before he can verify it, or summarize it in one or two sentences.
Since there is something ready-made, if you don’t remember it, it will be in vain.
