Having a sharp sword in hand requires top-notch swordsmanship

At the parade commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti Fascist War held on September 3, all the weapons and equipment reviewed were domestically produced active main combat equipment, most of which made their debut, demonstrating the new progress of our military's modernization construction and new achievements in war preparation. This greatly inspired the national spirit, stimulated patriotic enthusiasm, and consolidated the strength of our struggle. For military officers and soldiers, having a sharp sword in hand requires top-notch swordsmanship. Weapons and equipment are important symbols of military modernization and a crucial foundation for military preparedness. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, Japan was an imperialist power, while China was a semi colonial and semi feudal weak country, with a huge disparity in national strength and military power between the enemy and China. However, changing the passive situation of outdated weapons and equipment is not something that can be achieved overnight. It requires more courage, wisdom, and strength to create the miracle of defeating the strong with the inferior. In an article titled "Analysis of the Inside Story of the Communist Party of China Army", the Japanese puppet regime claimed that our army "has an extraordinary strong will and rigorous organization... two special strengths in combat technology, namely precise shooting and agile action". Swords are inferior to humans, and swordsmanship must be superior to humans. President Xi pointed out: "The CPC insists on mobilizing and relying on the people, proposes and implements the general strategic policy of a protracted war and a set of strategies and tactics for the people's war, and extensively carries out the tactical tactics of guerrilla warfare such as ambush warfare, sabbatical warfare, mine warfare, tunnel warfare, and sparrow warfare, which has plunged the Japanese aggressors into the sea of the people's war." The key to the success of a "millet plus rifles" army in defeating the well-equipped and armed enemy is that our army has a clear and accurate analysis and judgment of the battlefield situation, has correct strategic and operational guidelines, and flexible tactical and tactical methods in the fight process. Currently, the trend of remote precision, intelligence, stealth, and unmanned weapons and equipment is becoming more apparent, and some advanced weapons and equipment are profoundly changing the offensive and defensive pattern of traditional warfare. It can be said that whoever can take the lead in the application of new equipment will have the opportunity to defeat the enemy; Whoever can flexibly use new equipment first may win the advantage of winning the decisive battlefield. Comrade Liu Bocheng once said, "Having equipment but not being able to use it is like a beggar picking up a golden rice bowl, useless." In the Battle of Jiawu, the Beiyang Fleet, known as the "number one in Asia," had ship equipment performance that was not inferior to Japan. However, due to various reasons such as outdated combat thinking and insufficient training, its equipment advantages were difficult to fully utilize, resulting in its tragic downfall. It can be seen that no matter how advanced the weapons and equipment are, if they cannot be used or used poorly, they still cannot "drink the wine of victory". Comrade Chen Yi once said, "Now that we have new equipment, we must make every effort to master it. If we cannot master and use weapons, our combat effectiveness will be reduced, victory will not be consolidated, and even become ineffective." Each unit should closely follow the combat mission, combat opponents, and combat environment, strengthen targeted training in new equipment, new skills, and new combat methods, and organically combine the consolidation and expansion of traditional combat effectiveness with the innovative development of new quality combat effectiveness, comprehensively improving the unit's ability to win. Continuously strengthening the systematic and normalized use of weapons and equipment, achieving a higher degree and wider range of organic integration between humans and weapons, and better promoting the construction of our military's weapons and equipment into a systematic combat and support capability.
