朝鲜官方媒体周三报道，朝鲜领导人金正恩表示，该国军事指挥官的“首要”任务是让其部队“全面做好战争准备”，强调战斗力建设。
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has said “primary” task of the country’s military commanders was to “getting fully ready” their units “for fighting a war,” stressing combat readiness, state media reported Wednesday.
朝中社报道，金正恩是在前一天与朝鲜人民军第三次连级指挥官会议与会者合影时发表上述言论的。
Kim made the remarks during a photo session with participants in the third meeting of Company Leaders of the Korean People’s Army a day earlier, KCNA reported.
“连级指挥官的首要革命任务是完成其部队的战斗准备，以全面做好战争准备，其实施途径是使艰苦而强化的训练取得根本性改进，”金正恩说。
“The primary revolutionary task of the company leaders is to round off the combat preparations of their units for getting fully ready for fighting a war and the way for its implementation is to bring about a radical improvement in the strenuous and intensive training,” Kim said.
他呼吁军事指挥官通过“以坚定的革命信念、爱国精神和无与伦比的英雄气概与战斗效能，将其连队建设成一当百的精锐队伍，取得值得自豪的成果”，来“证明”他们对执政的劳动党和“革命”的忠诚。金正恩的言论发表之际，朝鲜半岛局势紧张升级，上个月非军事区（DMZ）内发生爆炸，导致三名韩国士兵受伤。
He called on the military commanders to “prove” their loyalty to the ruling Workers’ Party and the “revolution” through “proud successes in turning their companies into a-match-for-a-hundred ranks with firm revolutionary faith, patriotic spirit and matchless heroic mettle and fighting efficiency.”Kim’s remarks come amid heightened tensions on the Korean Peninsula following an explosion last month inside the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), which separates North and South Korea, that wounded three South Korean soldiers.
首尔方面指责平壤制造了该事件，但表示双方应恢复军事沟通以缓和紧张局势。
Seoul blamed Pyongyang for the incident but said the two sides should resume military communication to ease tensions.
平壤拒绝了这些指控，尚未回应举行会谈的提议。双方均已就9月21日非军事区事件向联合国安理会提交了各自的陈述。
Pyongyang rejected the accusations and has yet to respond to the offer of talks. Both sides have written to the UN Security Council presenting their accounts of the Sept. 21 DMZ incident.
