Xu Jianghai, commander of a pontoon-bridge regiment of the Guangzhou Military Area Command, has made remarkable achievements through diligent study: he is capable of operating 26 new equipment of the regiment, and has solved over 40 training problems and made more than 50 innovative products. His regiment did pretty well in 12 aspects such as military training and was commended by the general headquarters and the military area command. Recently, he led the regiment to receive 7 examinations conducted by the superior and performed excellently in all the subjects.

In 2001, Xu saw his gap in knowledge and capabilities from a drilling failure, and recognized that, if a military commander did not update his knowledge and fighting thought, he would find it hard to command a future high-tech warfare. Therefore, he studied high technology diligently, reading a lot of books like "Basic Knowledge on Modern High Technology", "Information Warfare", "World New Military Revolution" and so on. Meanwhile, he worked hard to grasp computer technology by actively participating in automatic operation training and has acquired computer level certificate. Under his leadership, the regiment has successfully developed over 10 systems and more than 20 military application softwares, such as field command automation system, field personnel assistant decision-making system and field information quick search system, made more than 50 military training multimedia coursewares. Relating to the actual condition of military training, Xu has published 38 academic papers on military science, 18 of which have won awards in the army.

Xu integrated "non-touching battling", "soft killing" and many other new military theories into the training of the new Outline of Military Training and Evaluation and　created many new training and fighting methods, which were tested in the exercises under high-tech condition. To solve problems in military training, a research team led by Xu made technological innovations and solved a number of training problems like putting up pontoon bridge at night. Now the complementary advantages of the new and old equipment of the regiment have been given full play and the combat capacity of the regiment has been greatly strengthened.
