It is of great significance to consolidate and deepen the achievements of the reform of the leadership and command system, scale structure and force composition, and to promote the liberation and development of our army's joint combat capability. The outline is the top-level regulation of our army's combat doctrine system in the new era. It focuses on clarifying the basic issues of joint combat organization and implementation, unifying combat thinking, clarifying rights and responsibilities procedures, guiding combat operations, and clarifying major principles, requirements and basic procedures such as joint combat command, combat operations, combat support, national defense personnel and political work. The Central Military Commission requires that all levels conscientiously study and implement the "Outline", adhere to the only fundamental standard of combat effectiveness, take the "Outline" as the basic basis for organizing and implementing joint operations and joint training, and comprehensively improve the ability to win in the new era. The battle flag hunts, and there are ups and downs and climaxes on the drill ground—— The north and south of the river, the iron flow surging, sharpening the elite troops; Deep blue ocean, cross the sea and tread the waves to forge a sharp sword; Above the sky, Pengfei miles to the blue sky; Deep in the forest, the east wind roars for nine days; Skynet controls power, and the invisible defeats the tangible... Joint combat exercises are gradually carried out in multiple domains and all dimensions, laying out pictures of a strong army engaged in joint training to plan war, promote war through training, and win war through strong training, playing a strong voice of a new era in the history of our army's military training and preparation. Over the past year, the great changes in the world in the past century have been intertwined with the global COVID-19 epidemic. Under the clouded sky of epidemic haze, the international situation is constantly surging, accompanied by turbulence and confrontation. "If the world is different, things will be different, and things will be ready for change." In the future, "what war to fight and how to fight" carries the weight of the mission, and there is an upsurge of studying war and seeking victory everywhere in the whole army. In the face of new changes in the national security situation, new threats from strong enemies and new evolution of war forms, it is urgent for us to give answers to strengthen the army, win the war and the times. "On the whole, modern war has indeed undergone profound changes. These changes look dazzling, but there are rules to follow behind them. The fundamental thing is that the winning mechanism of war has changed." In the face of the rapidly developing new world military revolution and changes in the form of war, under the guidance of the commander in chief and in accordance with the unified deployment of the CMC's policy and system reform, the CMC joint Staff Department organized experts from the Academy of Military Sciences, relevant departments of the CMC organs, capable personnel from all theater commands, all services and arms and the armed police force to set up a joint research group to gather wisdom and concentrate on tackling key problems, We will press ahead with the formulation of combat doctrine for the new era. On November 7, 2020, the PLA joint operations outline (for Trial Implementation) was implemented throughout the army, marking a new coordinate system for our army's joint operations in the new era. Since the promulgation of the outline, commanders have taken the lead in learning, organs have taken the lead in learning, and troops have actually practiced learning. Officers and soldiers of the whole army have been eager to learn and implement the outline. A great discussion on joint operations in the new era, great ideological emancipation and great practice of war preparation have been vigorously carried out in the whole army. The sword finger wins the war and leads the new practice of war preparation in the new era "Follow the thoroughfare and seek a shortcut. Who do you want to follow?" There is no word "easy" in the military world. The only way to win a war is to prepare for it. What kind of war to fight in the future, we must innovate what kind of war methods; If we can't innovate tactics, it will be difficult to win future wars. In essence, operational doctrine is to solve the problem of how to fight and win. It is the refinement, deepening and concretization of military strategic principles. The PLA joint operations program (for Trial Implementation) (hereinafter referred to as the program) deeply studies the characteristics and laws of future wars, accurately grasps the characteristics of the times of the integrated development of mechanization, informatization and intelligence of our army, and through the forward-looking and concrete design of future operations, The spiritual essence and content requirements of the military strategic policy for the new era will be concretely implemented in the practice of military preparations for war. The outline is not only a guiding outline for war preparation, but also an outline for the United Nations to defeat war. At the beginning of the Spring Festival in 2021, a region of the eastern theater is organizing a multi service, multi-directional and systematic practical training. Under the guidance of the newly issued "Outline", the land, sea, air and space network and electricity are linked in the whole area, with close cooperation of political public opinion. From combat preparation to situation shaping to task implementation, the whole process is dominated by information, and all units work closely together. With the momentum of thunder and lightning, it shows the firm determination and strong ability to maintain national unity, It also witnessed the transformation of our army's joint operations from "metaphysical alliance" to "divine alliance". In the west, at midnight in the middle of the spring of 2021, a hasty alarm bell rang. According to the grade transition instruction of an air force base in the Western Theater, officers and soldiers of an air defense battalion of the army quickly rushed to the battle position, and the grade transition time was further shortened. According to the unified deployment, in the air force responsibility area of the theater, more than 10 army air defense forces entered the air force command chain in an organic form, broke the information barriers of the services, shared early warning information, shared combat readiness duty, and initially formed a joint air defense operation system. "You borrow my 'heavenly eye' and I help you 'iron fist'", the integrated joint air defense operation of Cross services and arms has taken a new step and entered a new stage. In the north, at the beginning of the midsummer of 2021, fighting eagles soared and the iron flow rolled. An exercise with the theme of air ground joint was under way. According to the plan, a command post of the air force in the northern theater and a group army of the army jointly organized two-level command post exercises, studied and explored the formation of joint command institutions, and tested the integrated joint operation command ability of command post personnel. Intelligence analysis and processing, joint firepower attack, integrated logistics support and other links are planned and carried out in one, and the personnel of the command organization are arranged in one with complete elements. With the tempering of joint operations and joint training, the practice of leading training with war and carrying war with training has been further implemented, and the joint operation command ability of commanders of all services and arms has been significantly improved. In the South China Sea, the fighting Eagles roared, the offensive was fierce, the dragons set out, crossed the sea and stepped on the waves, the radar flew around, and the missiles held their heads high... Under the unified command of the theater joint command, all task forces worked together and cooperated closely to quickly build a battlefield layout with multi domain joint, offensive and defensive and echelon deployment, and adopted the combination of centralized command and decentralized command, Flexible and flexible sea and air escort, deterrence and expulsion have been carried out, which is reasonable, powerful and restrained, and has effectively maintained peace and tranquility in the South China Sea. Over the past year since the implementation of the outline, the orientation of war preparation has become clearer and firmer, the only fundamental standard of combat effectiveness has been established more firmly, military training and war preparation as the main responsibility of the army has become more prominent, research and war planning as the first responsibility of officers and soldiers has become clearer, the ideas and measures of joint victory have become more and more effective, and the whole army has continued to set off a new upsurge of military training and war preparation. Keep pace with the times and clarify the new mechanism of joint operations in the new era "Every beneficial way goes with the times." Du Hei, a military theorist, once said: "victory only smiles at those who can foresee the changes in the characteristics of war, not those who wait for changes to adapt." Looking around the world, the game and struggle between big powers have intensified, the threat of war exists, the form of war continues to evolve, new military reforms are booming, weapons and equipment are becoming invisible, unmanned and intelligent, the battlefield space has expanded to all dimensions, the integrated linkage of combat forces has become the norm, and the battle command, action and support have become more sophisticated, Winning future wars requires more advanced operational theories. The fundamental gap is the gap in operational concepts, and the greatest lag is the backwardness in operational theory. When the modern war is surging in the world, what is most needed is a newer and braver mind. *** Materialization is the norm and standard for the specific implementation of the army, so as to promote our army's joint operations to a higher level. —— This paper expounds the Era Connotation of war guidance under the condition of informatization. Aiming at winning high-end wars in the future, the outline accurately grasps the characteristics of lowering the threshold of future armed conflict, blurring the boundaries of war, and increasingly prominent interaction and efficiency enhancement between war and other fields, strengthens the political and social attributes of combat operations, innovates and develops the Paradigm Model of military combat, and emphasizes relying on the national integrated strategic system and capability, It emphasizes the multi domain integration of war and non war, emphasizes the comprehensive implementation of military and political, diplomatic, economic, cultural and other means, gives full play to the overall advantages of the party, government, army, police and people, and reflects the concept of modern war and the war guidance for winning the people's war and overall war in the new era. —— All elements standardize the operational style and methods of our army's joint operations. Based on the tasks undertaken by our army and the reality of construction and development, the outline systematically expounds the possible joint operation modes in the future, covering the core missions in all strategic directions and covering the land, sea, air, space, network and electromagnetic multidimensional space. At the same time, it creatively summarizes the basic types of joint operations, highlights the basic actions that run through joint operations and have common characteristics, and forms a closed-loop link of all elements and all fields of joint operations. —— The whole process designs the joint operation command system and organization operation mode. The implementation of joint operations organization is extremely complex and difficult. Whether it can be "combined" in strength, action and efficiency depends on whether it can achieve "unity" in command. The outline focuses on building a strong and efficient joint operation command organization, closely combines the operation mode and mechanism of the Central Military Commission and the theater command, fully considers that it not only complies with the general direction and general requirements of reform, but also leaves room for flexible organization in practice, and focuses on solving major problems such as the construction of joint operation command system, the division of command authority and responsibility interface, and the integration of services into the joint system, Ensure that thousands of troops act together under a unified order. Take alliance as the key link to promote a new leap forward in joint training in the new era A guide to its outline, all eyes are open. *** Soldiers should be trained as they fight a war, and troops should be trained as they need to fight a war. Today's world-class armed forces regard improving the level of joint training as the first priority of war preparation. The outline is the opening work of the combat doctrine of the new era, and it is also the direction and follow of the transformation of joint training in the new era. The outline guides the direction, stimulates vitality and gives birth to a new pattern of joint training in the new era. —— Combine war with training, and present the "one posture" of training and preparation. In the Taiwan Strait, sea and air formations conduct joint combat readiness police patrols to test and improve the joint combat capability of multiple services and arms, maintain a high state of alert at all times, and resolutely safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity. Drill preparation is combat
