After Being Reborn, I became a firefighter again?

Chapter 697: Chapter 479: Apprenticeship with John von Neumann!

Twenty minutes later, Teaching Building.

"What?"

"People, supplies, equipment, all of it counts as basic data, all shared?"

Professor Jiang and Principal Luo had lost their initial composure, their eyes wide.

Yet, Fang Huai nodded firmly in confirmation.

"Yes, the construction of military information resource sharing must start from the basics. This information is managed by different departments but is frequently used by others, so it should be shared as widely as possible.

In addition, there are the private data from various departments, generated during operations, construction management, reform, and development—I call this ’business data.’ Depending on the nature of the data in different fields, the extent of sharing can vary. Departments that meet the sharing criteria can apply for access following a specific procedure.

The advantages of this are numerous, and I only need to mention a few for you to appreciate the benefits.

I won’t go into the operational aspects, as the materials cover that. Let me discuss something not included in the documents.

For instance, in our military’s significant reforms, having complete control over personnel and equipment information allows superiors to collect and understand reform progress at the highest speed and from all directions. Peers from other units can learn from each other’s experiences, and also, it embodies the central intelligence of the entire system, that is, the core computing power library. Using big data analysis to assess the combat effectiveness of the troops is one of the key foundations for tactical deployment.

Second, departments can evaluate the pros and cons of their equipment. Development departments can integrate this feedback to review the usage and evaluations of a particular piece of equipment and make adjustments to research and development.

I can assure you, this is definitely the most troublesome issue for R&D departments. With this system, the efficiency of equipment development will unquestionably experience a qualitative boost.

The workload for equipment departments in each unit would also be reduced by a third.

Thirdly, further vitality can be injected into military logistical resources through sharing.

We keep emphasizing information warfare. What is information warfare? Wouldn’t a unified response, precise energy deployment, and synergistic cooperation count?

While speaking, Fang Huai had stood up and was looking at the two leaders.

The term ’precise energy deployment’ was new to both, but they felt the "superiority" that Professor Jiang mentioned and nodded in recognition, though they were not entirely sure what it entailed.

The power of words is limitless, and Fang Huai couldn’t resist stuffing some ’internet hype literature’ from future times into the materials to boost his plan’s ’professionalism.’

However, regarding the use of these terms, Fang Huai didn’t just throw them in randomly; he aimed for accuracy.

"We all know, logistics has always been a crippling department.

Why is it crippling?

For starters, the procedures for the approval of equipment and supplies are very troublesome. Moreover, the decision-making power often lies with the leaders of large units far removed from the grassroots units.

With such distance, how can we ensure that strategic resources are in place on time?

Let’s not even talk about equipment. Take the supply mobilization during the recent earthquake. If it hadn’t been for the many high-level leaders present on-site issuing commands that bypassed normal procedures, how many days would it have taken to settle the displaced people relying solely on the existing systems?

In wartime, as situations change rapidly, there is an even greater need for a system that is simple, effective, and ensures precise, well-placed logistical support.

With this data system, logistics departments can macro-adjust surplus resources, effectively energize excess resources through various means, and rearrange and exploit them. They could even establish a whole new wartime support procedure, breaking away from the traditional administratively directed resource distribution.

The battlefield units could also dynamically adjust their supply routes and optimize logistics tools, based on timely information from the system, thus autonomously adapting their support routes, force deployment, and methods of support.

As for "energizing resources" and handling surplus materials, you don’t need me to tell you how much money this system could save the troops every year, do you?

I’d like to add that, as I mentioned earlier about promoting the government’s information construction, the utilization of civilian forces could also be statistically recorded and gathered through the system.

In the Battle of the Falkland Islands, within three days, the British Military requisitioned more than 50 large merchant ships, some of which were urgently retrofitted into troop and hospital ships while en route.

In the Iraq War, the US Military requisitioned civilian support forces and national transportation to support frontline operations. They deployed more than 1,100 civilian aircraft, over 70 large vessels, transported 280,000 troops, 3 million tons of equipment and supplies, 700 helicopters, and 1,500 tanks into the combat zone.

Our country is vast and rich in resources, and the capacity of civilian industry is beyond imagination; we must make good use of it.

Additionally, I think we can use information construction to undertake a thorough industrial inventory of our country. Perhaps there are things we are capable of producing; we just aren’t aware of it.

Record the industrial capacities, update them dynamically, and in terms of equipment development, we might break through numerous barriers."

The expressions of the two leaders had gradually become excited.

Huge.

This thing, it was simply enormous.

So vast, they felt almost unworthy of hearing it. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

They were already aware of the advantages this system offered in combat from the documents, but they had no idea it had so many more capabilities!

Of course, Fang Huai knew that the two before him didn’t have the authority to decide on these matters. These ideas still had to be included in the plan for the higher leadership to see. The two in front of him, however, were important leaders he could reach, and with one more person’s support, his chances of success increased.

He spoke of great benefits to get them on board.

At that moment, Professor Jiang couldn’t help but recall Fang Huai’s talk on the playground about "expanding thought." Jiang didn’t need Fang Huai to continue; he had already thought of many other exciting possibilities.

After pondering for a while, he finally addressed the key issue.
