Chapter 71 Defensive Tactics
“The initiative is the fleet’s freedom of action, and freedom of action is the lifeblood of the fleet.
Flexibility is a commander's ability to properly handle situations and is a manifestation of conscious initiative in combat. Strength advantage is the basis for taking the initiative. Correct subjective guidance, flexible use of forces and changing tactics are important conditions for taking and maintaining the initiative and defeating the enemy.
In battle, you need to attack actively to put yourself in the active position. When you are on the defense, you must strive to take active offensive actions to get rid of passivity and seize the initiative.
Concentrate forces in the main direction and important moments to form and maintain an advantage over the enemy. In addition, the mobility of the ship girls is stronger than that of the sirens, so they maneuver widely, establish a favorable situation, actively find and create the enemy's weaknesses and mistakes, mobilize the enemy, and put it into a passive position.
According to the mission, enemy situation, our situation, and sea area, we should skillfully deploy troops and take appropriate actions. We should be good at observing the battlefield situation, assessing the situation, responding quickly, and flexibly maneuvering the methods of action to counter the changes in forces, and not hitting the enemy at the right time.
When the situation changes significantly, or when contact with superiors is lost, we should act proactively and decisively in accordance with the overall intentions and strategies of our superiors, and complete combat missions flexibly and proactively.
An unexpected action can change the situation of advantage and disadvantage between the two hostile parties, causing the enemy to lose its advantage and initiative, thus achieving the greatest victory at a minimal cost.
As Qin Ge's lecture progressed, the commanders in the front row nodded from time to time. They had experienced battlefields, so they understood very well what Qin Ge meant by concentrating superior forces.
In large-scale naval battles, since personnel are scattered, a situation is created in which one wants to defend comprehensively but lacks the strength, so the choice of targets is very important.
However, this trade-off caused heavy losses in some places, forcing them to spend a lot of money to rebuild after each Siren Tide or large-scale battle.
At this time, a major-level commander in the front row raised his hand, and Qin Ge keenly captured the commander's intention, so he made a gesture of invitation.
The major commander stood up and said to Qin Ge, "Hello, mentor, I have a question. We usually adopt defensive tactics in naval battles, but we can only barely resist the attacks of the Sirens, and each time it will cause the death of the commander, and some facilities on the shore will also be destroyed. How can we avoid this situation?"
Qin Ge nodded and said to the major commander, "Please take a seat."
He didn't start talking until the major-level commander sat down.
"You are trapped in a vicious circle here. You are going all out and using a comprehensive defense to fight against the Siren's overall attack. This is actually very fatal to the situation on the battlefield.
Because from the perspective of the Siren attack, it is divided into different fleets to attack. Some are small fleets, some are medium fleets, and some are large fleets, so here we return to the issue we talked about at the beginning, intelligence.
Only after mastering the specific situation and circumstances of the Siren's attack can we effectively utilize the mobility of the ship girls and adjust and deploy tactics in a timely manner.
The main contents of defensive tactics include the characteristics of defensive tactics, the principles of defensive tactics, and the application of defensive tactics, etc.
The coastline defense zone guarded by each of our large fleets is relatively large, but the fleets owned by each of our commanders are not necessarily of the same level, so timely allocation of personnel and adjustments will allow for flexible defense.
First of all, we must find out where the enemy's active attack is going. We cannot just go wherever there are Sirens. This is a very wrong judgment. After making this judgment, the troops will be dispersed and easily surrounded by Sirens. It will also cause the death of some commanders whose fleets are relatively weak.
We must pay attention to key areas of resistance, focus on the formation of overall strength, adopt a systematic approach to gain relative advantages, correctly handle the relationship between concentrating combat forces and preserving defensive forces, and organically concentrate combat forces on the main defense direction.
Not only do we pre-select and form the main defense deployment and key defense areas when preparing for defensive battles, but we also timely adjust the defense deployment, implement troop and firepower maneuvers, coordinate the main defense forces and adjust the main defense direction in different stages of the enemy's attack to achieve key resistance throughout the entire defense process.
While pre-deploying relatively balanced defensive forces throughout the entire depth of the defense, we should master powerful mobile forces, maneuver in a timely manner as needed, and quickly gain advantages in key directions and practices.
After Qin Ge finished speaking, the major commander said, “That is to say, when we deploy, we should deploy more superior forces according to the main attack direction of the Siren and focus on resistance.
In other areas where the offensive intention is relatively weak, we should adopt a mobile combat approach to annihilate the enemy as quickly as possible and relieve the defensive pressure in the area? "
Qin Ge nodded, "That's right. While we are defending tightly and fighting tenaciously, we must seize every opportunity to take various active offensive actions such as harassment, counterattack, and counterattack to continuously consume and strike the enemy's offensive power and gradually deprive the enemy of its offensive capability.
Simply defending tightly is not the right way to deal with the Siren's attack. We must correctly grasp the scale of the means used, combine offense with defense, integrate offense and defense, and focus on the stability of the overall defense.
We will combine tight defense , tenacious resistance, extensive harassment with timely counterattacks and counterattacks, and comprehensively utilize the power of various types of ship girls to defeat the enemy's attack with coordinated resistance actions. "
The applause rang out again like thunder, and the commanders or deputy commanders from various large fleets in the front row particularly agreed with Qin Ge's current explanation.
Qin Ge often explained the points they had not considered in a concise theoretical way. In the following classes, several people took turns to ask questions, and Qin Ge gave corresponding answers, and these answers were all in line with the actual points of their fleet.
Several people couldn't help but feel that it was totally worthwhile to spend 500 items to attend such a tactical theory class.
For a professional, systematic, and targeted strategic and tactical course like this, they are willing to come and listen even if it is 10,000 units of supplies per class. Because every bit of knowledge absorbed means that they can achieve greater victory on the battlefield in the future.
Such a victory is worthy of any measure.
Really made a lot of money!
