The southern theater has extensively carried out mass innovation activities in combat methods The new tactics must be based on war and reality Special correspondent Jiang Boxi and reporter Duan Jiangshan reported: intensive research on theory, conception of tactics, deduction and demonstration... In the middle of spring, josasha, a senior engineer of a certain unit in the southern theater, led the research team to go deep into the front line of war preparation and make every effort to tackle key problems in the innovation of tactics. At the beginning of this year, after winning the first prize of the innovation achievement of theater tactics, josasha made persistent efforts and began to launch an impact on the special prize. The reporter learned that in the past two years, the southern theater has widely carried out mass innovation activities in combat methods, and a number of high-quality combat methods have stood out in the review. "It is not necessary to determine the champion and runner up in the innovation of combat methods like the competition of martial arts, but we must adhere to the standard of war and establish a clear guidance for actual combat and preparation." The leaders of the southern theater introduced that in the mass innovation activities of combat methods, they highlighted originality, encouraged innovation and breakthrough, insisted on coming from practice and going to actual combat, and guided the majority of officers and soldiers to vigorously solve the key and difficult problems perplexing joint operations. On this basis, they put the principle of only fighting and being realistic, rather lacking than excessive throughout, did not make accommodation and care, and made every effort to cultivate a "fertile soil" for growth for innovative, bright and breakthrough methods of warfare. Whether the achievements can stand out, "war content" is the hard standard. The reporter looked through the evaluation rules and found that they set up five levels of awards from special prize to excellent award, and each type of award corresponds to the corresponding combat effectiveness standard and evaluation qualification. It is understood that since the mass innovation activities of war methods were carried out, the organs of the southern theater and the units of all services and arms have enthusiastically reported the innovative achievements of war methods. In the first review, both the special prize and the first prize were vacant. In the second evaluation, although the number of award-winning achievements doubled compared with the previous one, and five achievements won the first prize, the special prize still failed to achieve a "zero breakthrough". Liu Bo, a member of the evaluation committee, told reporters: "we must adhere to the standard of only fighting and being realistic, guide the troops to focus on practical combat, training and preparation, and seek innovation, so as to ensure the steady improvement of the quantity and quality of innovative achievements." The reporter learned that in order to promote the higher quality development of mass methods of warfare innovation activities and promote the construction of the combat effectiveness of the troops to achieve a new leap, the southern theater launched a comprehensive and accurate guidance. The organs of the theater and the troops of all services and arms quickly set off an upsurge of war planning and cohesion innovation. The new methods of warfare continued to enter the scheme plan and integrate into the command link, and the joint combat capability of the troops was effectively improved. At the same time, more innovative research projects from the front line of training and tasks have been included in the annual work plan of the theater forces, and the war preparation work of the southern theater forces has entered the "fast lane" of improving quality and efficiency. Innovation in tactics lies in seeking truth from facts ■ Wei Bing "War has always been carried out in two times, the first in the minds of militarists and the second in reality." Tactics are used in wartime and in peacetime. If the army wants to win, it must constantly carry out innovation in combat methods. Looking at today's world military game, whoever takes the lead in the innovation of combat methods will be able to win on the battlefield. Innovation in tactics is an important magic weapon to defeat the enemy and win on the battlefield is the fundamental standard to test the achievements of innovation in tactics. Good combat methods that are really effective must come from the battlefield and be used in actual combat. Each new combat method should be measured by actual combat standards. The innovation of operational methods must be responsible for the future war and the officers and soldiers participating in the war. We must strictly identify and resolutely abandon the innovative schemes of operational methods that do not have actual combat value and practical feasibility, so as to avoid the consumption of military resources by meaningless innovation of operational methods. The strategy of war is not only an "intelligence contest" about truth, but also a "thinking game" about true knowledge. In the innovation of operational methods, we must adhere to the principle of being realistic in combat and pay close attention to combat tasks and combat opponents. Only by standing at the height of the times and from the perspective of the enemy to conceive various situations that may occur in the future battlefield, and making efforts to seek truth, innovation, accuracy and reality, can we grasp the pulse of future war.
