Summary

Machine summary

A brigade of the 83rd Group Army recently conducted full-process, full-element live-fire artillery tactical training at an outdoor range, running a continuous cycle from dawn alert through nighttime fire missions that included reconnaissance teams conducting close-in covert observation of forward targets, 装定诸元 (setting firing data), smoke-screen deployment, and coordinated multi-position fire strikes. The article documents a combined-arms artillery training sequence emphasizing the integration of reconnaissance-to-strike timelines and day-to-night continuity — standard readiness training content whose value is as a baseline record of how the 83rd Group Army's artillery brigades are cycling through live-fire proficiency, not evidence of a posture change or new capability.
