Now when people talk about the man codenamed 101, they all say that he is the god of the army, and he invented six major tactics such as "three three systems", "one point and two sides", and "four fast and one slow". In fact, these were all explored by the commanders and fighters at the grassroots level in the long-term war, and the 101 refinement and summary was not his invention. In fact, in the later period, he became a stumbling block to the tactical development of our army.
In the early 60s, Guo Xingfu, commander of the 2nd Company of the 100th Regiment, created a completely new set of training methods, combining training tactics, work style, and ideology, and maximizing the advantages of each soldier according to their different characteristics, and training every soldier into a little tiger.
This training method came to be known as the "Guo Xingfu Teaching Method" and soon began to be popularized throughout the army. This has also set off an upsurge in our army's military training and martial arts, and various large-scale martial arts competitions have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
It can be said that this kind of atmosphere has greatly promoted the tactical level of our army at the grassroots level, and during this period, it can be said that our army's individual combat effectiveness has reached the peak of history. For example, in the 1962 self-defense counterattack against India, Pang Guoxing and three other soldiers who fell behind automatically formed a combat group and wiped out an artillery battalion of the Indian army in one fell swoop.
Guo Xingfu also became a celebrity in the army and was cordially received by his superiors. But he could never have imagined that his tragedy would begin here. The "Guo Xingfu Teaching Method" brought him not honor, but a catastrophe.
In 1966, Guo Xingfu was arrested on charges of "anti-prominence". Many people may be confused when they see this crime, what is the "anti-prominent crime"? What to highlight?
This is a point made by 101 in 1964. That is, the military training of the troops has been carried out too prominently, taking up more than half of the time, and has had an impact on ideological and political work, and the troops should put ideological and political work in the first place.
He said: "Fighting a war mainly depends on politics, and military affairs are not the fundamental factor of combat effectiveness. If there is a political mess, the enemy comes and runs back, no matter how good the military technology is, it is useless. If there is a contradiction between military training and ideological and political work, then military training should give way. Our focus is on politics. ”
At the request of 101, the troops did not dare to engage in training at all
101 requires that the ratio of political education and military training should reach seven to three. No matter what the troops, more than half of the time should be spent on political education, and military training for full-training units can account for 40 percent, and for half-trained troops, it can account for 20 percent.
Under the influence of this trend of thought, Guo Xingfu, who devoted himself to studying military technology, became a negative example and was charged with "anti-prominence." He was imprisoned in a cowshed and tortured.
In the summer heat of 40 degrees, he was ordered to crawl on the concrete floor with the straw in his mouth, kowtowing as he crawled, saying "I am guilty" and not letting the straw fall. In winter, you have to wear a tin hat to parade through the streets, the cold wind is bitter, the hat is frozen on your head, and you can't tear it off.
A model of training in the whole army was tortured like this by 101, which made everyone's hearts chill. There is a popular saying in the troops, which is that "political education should be given as much as necessary, and what is left over from military training is counted," and "more training is better than less training, and less training is better than no training at all."
There has been a serious decline in the military skills and combat effectiveness of the troops. During the camping training, there were problems such as the troops not being able to march, camp, be on guard, and cook. During the camp, the troops could not afford to build a barracks for two hours, the cooking class could not cook for two hours, and cadres below the battalion level did not understand the tactics at their own level.
What's more, in the name of "breaking foreign dogma", 101 also opposed the army's regular military training, burned military books, and even destroyed the regulations, regulations, and teaching materials he had summarized. Later, military academies were drastically reduced, and two-thirds of the entire military academies and academies were cut at once.
Fortunately, there were no major wars during this period, except for Zhenbao Island
Under the perverse actions of 101, the combat effectiveness of the army fell to the bottom. Fortunately, there were no major wars during this period, otherwise the consequences would have been really unimaginable.
This situation continued until the death of 101 on September 1971, but the effects were long-lasting. Although military training has gradually resumed in the troops, there has been a situation in which "no one teaches the soldiers who want to learn, and the cadres who want to teach cannot teach." Everyone had to start from scratch and start all over again.
Until the 1979 self-defense and counter-attack war, the combat effectiveness of the troops was not fully restored, and there was a big gap between the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the war against India in 1962. Those who say that 101 is a military wizard can rest, he almost wants to take the whole army to a point of no return, and it has become a stumbling block to the development of our army's combat effectiveness.
