港媒：中国将重组陆军 部分集团军改编25至30个师
资料图：陆军第39集团军某红军旅官兵在演习中发起冲锋（2016年5月14日摄）。 参考消息网8月25日报道 据熟悉军方情况的消息人士说，在努力打造更灵活的作战部队之际，中国将重组155万陆军部队中一半以上的部队。
据香港《南华早报》网站8月24日报道，消息人士表示，现有的18个集团军中的一部分将被改编成25至30个师。目前每个集团军的规模从3万人到10万人不等。
北京的一位退役军官说，这种大规模方式已经不再适应现代战争的要求，现代战争看重的是模块化。这位退役军官说：“这是现代战争中的一种主要趋势。就连俄罗斯军队也在削减部队规模，使陆军更加灵活而且反应迅速。”
他说：“美军第101空降师的风格将是（解放军）陆军学习的最好榜样，特别是其快速部署、装备和后勤供给以及其他支援体系，这反映了这种灵活高效体系的成功。”
去年中国公布的一份国防白皮书凸显了打造小型、多功能、能够在联合行动中承担不同任务的模块式部队的重要性。
报道称，这是解放军今年年初开始的一项更广泛的变革的一部分。根据中央军委主席习近平的指示，四总部被改为包括联合参谋部在内的15个职能部门。七大军区被改组为五大战区。到2017年军队将裁员大约30万人。根据这一新安排，这些战区将直接向联合参谋部汇报工作，而联合参谋部现在属于中央军委的职能部门。
消息人士说，中央呼吁陆军各级领导人加快在建设模式和运用方法上的改革。2012年12月初，在担任中央军委主席不到一个月后，习近平在视察广州军区时提出了他对陆军的期望。他说，要确保军队“始终能够召之即来、来之能战、战之必胜”。
