Strive to create a new situation in military training
On January 4th, President Xi signed Order No.1 of the Central Military Commission in 2022, and issued a training mobilization order to the whole army. The mobilization order for training emphasized: "All levels of the whole army must resolutely implement the decision-making instructions of the CPC Central Committee and the Central Military Commission, accurately grasp the changes in national security and military struggle, pay close attention to the changes in science and technology, war and opponents, vigorously promote the coupling of war and training, vigorously promote systematic training, vigorously promote scientific and technological training, and comprehensively promote the transformation and upgrading of military training, so as to train elite troops who can fight well." The officers and men of the whole army must resolutely follow orders, focus on the elite troops who can fight well, take "three eyes and three advances" as the strategic starting point, transform and upgrade to training with high quality and high efficiency, and strive to open up a new situation in military training in the new era. Keep an eye on the changes in technology, war and opponents. As the most direct preparation for military struggle, military training is a dynamic development process that adapts to the changes of the times and the requirements of winning. Our army’s military training has entered a new stage of all-round reform and overall improvement. Keeping a close eye on the changes in science and technology, war and opponents is the law of the innovation and development of military training and the inevitable choice and key measure to promote the transformation and upgrading of military training. Keep a close eye on the changes in science and technology and grasp the growth points of transformation and upgrading. At present, the new round of scientific and technological revolution is speeding up in an all-round way, high-tech development is changing with each passing day, and the status and role of science and technology as the core combat power is more prominent. Facing the new opportunities and challenges brought by the scientific and technological revolution, increasing the transformation and application of advanced scientific and technological achievements and greatly improving the high-tech content of military training are the main growth points to promote the transformation and upgrading of military training. Only by keeping a close eye on the changes of science and technology, recognizing the leading direction and characteristics of the times of military science and technology development, accurately grasping the trend of weapons and equipment developing to remote precision, intelligence, stealth and unmanned, grasping the trend of the battlefield expanding to emerging fields and the emergence of new combat forces, and using scientific and technological forces as a lever to incite the innovative development of military training, can we provide stronger scientific and technological support for the transformation and upgrading of military training. Keep a close eye on the change of war and grasp the focus of transformation and upgrading. Nowadays, under the impetus of the new military revolution in the world, the form of war is constantly evolving to the depth of information and developing rapidly to intelligence, and the temporal and spatial characteristics and combat style of war have undergone major changes. The evolution of war form is the vane of military training. Facing the revolutionary changes in the form of war, it is the focus of promoting the transformation and upgrading of military training to promote the transformation of military training from passive adaptation to active design of war and build a new military training system that meets the requirements of winning. Only by keeping a close eye on the changes of war, analyzing the new trend of the evolution of war forms, deeply studying the new changes in the characteristics and winning mechanism of modern war, adapting to the development trend of mechanized information and intelligent integration, and improving the actual combat level of military training at a higher starting point and standard, can we realize the high-starting point planning and high-quality promotion of military training transformation and upgrading. Keep an eye on the changes of opponents and find the right point of transformation and upgrading. At present, the international strategic pattern is deeply adjusted, the security situation in China is undergoing new profound changes, the geo-strategic environment and the military struggle situation are becoming more complicated, and the task of preparing for our military struggle is more arduous and urgent. In view of the preparation needs of the actual military struggle, it is an important force to promote the transformation and upgrading of military training by practicing the excellent skills of balancing and winning powerful opponents. Only by keeping a close eye on the opponent’s changes, tracking and studying the opponent’s strategic strategy, technical equipment and combat mode, clarifying the enemy’s situation, battlefield situation and operational guidance, focusing on promoting our strengths and defeating the enemy’s weaknesses, strengthening the pertinence and applicability of the innovation of tactics and training methods, and taking out the countermeasures of "the road is one foot high and the magic is one foot high" can we ensure that the transformation and upgrading of military training are targeted and implemented. Adhere to actual combat training and vigorously promote the coupling of combat training As a preview of future wars, the higher the coupling degree between military training and actual combat, the greater its value. Vigorously promoting the coupling between combat and training profoundly reveals the internal logic of the close relationship and interaction between combat and training, which is the key to improve the degree and level of actual combat of military training. We must focus on the transformation of actual combat training, vigorously promote the effectiveness of the coupling of combat training, and push actual combat military training to a new level. Pay close attention to focusing on actual combat and training with war. In essence, the coupling of combat training is an interaction based on actual combat and training. The more accurate the focus of training and actual combat, the greater the coupling effect of combat training. It is necessary to intensify research efforts, deeply explore the motivation trend of the evolution of war forms, explore the new changes in the winning mechanism of modern wars and operations, explore the new characteristics of the reform of war styles and combat methods, and continuously obtain practical research results; Increase the intensity of training, strive to practice skills to the extreme and use weapons to the extreme in accordance with the requirements of "it is really difficult to be strict", strengthen the practical training of weapons and equipment in extreme performance, interference conditions and complex environments, and beat and temper troops based on the most complicated, difficult and severe battlefield environment; Increase the difficulty of training, highlight command confrontation, system confrontation and actual combat confrontation drills, and enhance the forward-looking, adaptability and inspection of drills in view of possible difficult, dangerous and dangerous situations in future operations, so as to give full play to the greatest effect of improving actual combat capability. Pay close attention to docking actual combat and consistent combat training. Realizing the organic integration and seamless link of combat training is the inherent requirement to promote the deep coupling of combat training. It is necessary to build an integrated training mode of warfare and training, meet the operational needs, set training topics according to operational tasks, determine training courses according to operational plans, strengthen the practical training of mission topics, strengthen the specialization and refinement of emergency response, and strengthen the rigid mandatory role of operational needs; Docking the future battlefield environment, starting from the most difficult, complicated and severe situation, carefully construct the training environment and conditions, improve the training difficulty, and ensure that the troops break through adversity, overcome obstacles and win the battle in wartime; Docking combat targets, grasping training and preparing for war with realistic enemy situation, innovating tactics and training methods for powerful opponents, and practicing enemy-control strategies for opponents’ combat attempts, strategies and methods to ensure that they can come at the call and win the battle. Pay close attention to the training style and promote war through training. The coupling of war and training can not be separated from the unique function of training. It is necessary to establish a clear orientation of practicing for war, and always make unremitting efforts to solve the problem that the training style is not true. We should start with monitoring and supervising training, accountability and accountability, and resolutely correct the unhealthy phenomena such as training for watching, acting for watching, not training in danger, and not training in danger. We should cultivate the fighting spirit of not being afraid of hardship and not being afraid of death from beginning to end, resolutely get rid of the "accumulated disadvantages of peace" and the "28 phenomenon", and sharpen our tenacious will and fighting style that are not afraid of strong enemies and dare to fight and win; Let the training go ahead of the battle, verify the operational theory, operational plan and operational tactics through training, actively design and test the battle, and effectively promote the transformation of training results into actual combat capability. Deepen joint war and joint training and vigorously promote systematic training. Modern warfare is based on joint operations and system confrontation, which inevitably requires the construction of a corresponding military training system. Vigorously promoting systematic training reflects the trend of the times in the transformation and development of military training and is the only way to improve the quality of military training. We must focus on deepening the transformation of joint warfare and joint training, and make great efforts to build a joint training system with our military characteristics in vigorously promoting systematic training. Highlight the leading force with the link as the key link We should focus on giving full play to the leading role of joint training, strengthen the cultivation of joint awareness, guide officers and men to update their combat training concepts, establish a thinking mode of joint victory, eradicate the habit of "fighting alone" and "fighting alone", and achieve joint training and concerted efforts to win; Strengthen joint command training, focus on improving the command efficiency of joint operations, do a good job in the strategic campaign training of the head office, strengthen the training of command strategy, command system and command skills, twist the outstanding contradictions and problems that restrict joint operations command, focus on gathering wisdom and concentrating on refining, open up the whole system and whole process command link of joint operations, and improve the ability to plan, guide and organize modern warfare. Strengthen the supporting force of system integration. The basis of systematic training is to integrate the training of arms and services into the joint training system, realize the organic integration of various combat forces, combat units and combat elements, and give full play to the supporting role of systematic integration training. Strengthen the training of joint operations system, standardize the contents, courses and training methods of services and arms within the framework of joint training, clarify the standards and requirements of joint training for services and arms, and form a joint training link that changes from services and arms to alliance and from elements to integration; Strengthen the whole system, all elements and the whole process of training, highlight the cross-disciplinary and cross-service joint special training, strengthen the training of mutual conditions between services and arms, do a good job in the training of integrating new and new combat forces into the combat system, increase the intensity of joint confrontation drills and cross-regional base training, and comprehensively improve the integrated joint combat capability. Improve the security of system energy gathering. Systematic training has the characteristics of overall linkage, system integration, accuracy and high efficiency, which puts forward higher standards and requirements for training support. It is necessary to do a good job in overall planning, strengthen training support demand calculation, planning and design, and benefit evaluation, focus on optimizing all aspects of the whole process, and focus on base training, confrontation training, and comprehensive drills to accelerate the construction of joint training environment conditions; Innovate the support mode, implement resource sharing, regional cooperation and military-civilian cooperation, accurately grasp the support information, accurately provide support resources, accurately use support forces, and explore the formation of a new standardized, accurate and intensive training support mode; Build a security system, adapt to the new requirements of joint training security, focus on optimizing the layout, improving the elements and innovating ways, and accelerate the construction of a high-level joint training security system in view of new characteristics such as wide coverage, diverse needs and rich content. Deepen training through science and technology, and vigorously promote training through science and technology. Science and technology make the country prosperous, and science and technology make the army strong. Vigorously promoting military training through science and technology reflects the essential requirements for the generation and improvement of modern combat effectiveness, and is the key to enhancing the times, science and innovation of military training. We must consolidate and develop the achievements of military training through science and technology, vigorously promote military training through science and technology at a higher starting point, and comprehensively improve the quality level of training through science and technology. Accelerate the transformation and upgrading of training. Training through science and technology is a "propeller" for military training to adapt to the changes of science and technology, reform and combat, and a "power valve" for accelerating the transformation and upgrading of training. It is necessary to adapt to the new situation and new requirements, expand the connotation and form of scientific and technological training, grasp the needs of upgrading weapons and equipment, simultaneously compile training plans, develop simulation equipment, train technical backbones, conduct practical drills, and explore new training modes to accelerate the formation of combat effectiveness with new equipment; Grasp the characteristics and requirements of new combat forces, innovate training methods, training methods and exercise modes, and maximize the unique operational effectiveness of new combat forces; Grasp the mechanism of emerging combat fields, carry out embedded, development and docking training, explore new ways of specialization and specialization training, accelerate the improvement of multi-domain integrated combat capability, and promote the expansion of scientific and technological training to a higher level.
