Riverside Police.

Chapter 621 The Party Commands the Gun!

Director Ge is getting old, and his energy and physical strength are not as good as before.

After seeing Hong Feng off in the afternoon, I couldn't bear it any longer, so I went down the embankment to put on clean clothes, and got into the Cherokee where the Binjiang Reserve Regiment assigned to the Linghai Reserve Battalion to rest.

It was already [-] o'clock in the evening when I woke up, and I was woken up by reporter Wang and other friends engaged in news and propaganda.

News reports are all about timeliness.

They have just personally experienced the great danger of maneuvering for thousands of miles, rushing to protect the gate of the old temple, and recorded the shocking scene of thousands of soldiers and civilians fighting against the flood peak with cameras and words. Of course, they want to send the news as soon as possible.

Both reporter Wang and the reporter from Linghai Daily brought a film fax machine and a document transmitter, and they only needed a landline phone capable of long-distance calls to send back photos and written reports.

There is no public telephone on the embankment, so the camp needs to arrange a car to take them to find the telephone.

Lao Ge didn't agree, and used the excuse to inquire about the road to the nearest town. Friends in the news and propaganda circles who are in a hurry to release news should go back to the tent and wait.

Reporter Wang didn't want to cause trouble for him, so he led everyone back to the tent first.

Lao Ge didn't inquire about the road conditions, but found Staff Officer Dai who was busy.

Staff Officer Dai is really busy. He and his picket team not only have to manage the military discipline of the whole battalion, but also assist the logistics support unit.They even have to perform security duties to ensure the safety of the entire battalion's equipment and supplies.

What we need to do now is to assist the water supply and sanitation and anti-epidemic teams to provide clean drinking water to the officers and soldiers of the battalion, urge the exhausted officers and soldiers to take a bath and change their clothes, and take the time to wash the dirty clothes and hang them outside to dry.

At the same time, they should carry pesticide sprayers on their backs to assist health and epidemic prevention personnel in disinfecting the camp.

During the flood, the river and river water were very dirty. I don’t know how many toilets were flooded, and I don’t know how many livestock corpses were soaked in the water. That means there are many viruses and germs in the flood. In schistosomiasis areas, clean water must be drunk, personal hygiene must be improved, and camps must be disinfected.

In fact, many people have been infected.

For example, Xu Mingyuan and others who jumped into the river in the morning to fix the geotextile had a lot of red bumps on their bodies because of the allergy to the river water. His body was blue and purple.

As for clean water, the CSC logistics support team helped to solve it.

Changhang Jingzhou branch borrowed two fire trucks specially used for water loading from the Jingzhou fire brigade of the armed police, and brought ten tons of clean tap water.

Zhang Erxiao, who was in charge of logistics in the camp, borrowed a van from the Jingzhou Port Supervision Bureau. The two rows of seats in the back were removed, and four large-capacity stainless steel electric water heaters were installed in the van.

The communication and power protection team brought two sets of diesel generator sets. The containers transported from their hometown are now the power generation room and distribution room, so there is no need to worry about the water heater running out of power.

However, the water pressure of the water pipe connected to the fire brigade’s water tank truck is not very stable. At the same time, considering the safety of electricity use, the picket team has to arrange one person to be the “tea chief” who is in charge of boiling water in front of the van...

Lao Ge came up and called Staff Officer Dai, who was overwhelmed, aside, and asked with a smile, "Xiao Dai, have you called your regiment leader to report on your work?"

"No."

Staff Officer Dai hesitated for a moment, then said embarrassedly: "Ge Ju, I don't have a cell phone, and our regiment doesn't allow cell phones."

Lao Ge took out a cigarette and handed it a cigarette, and asked, "Does your regiment leader have any?"

"Head has it."

"Do you know the cell phone number of your head?"

"know."

Lao Ge went to the lighter that Staff Officer Dai had just ignited to light a cigarette, and when Staff Officer Dai also lit the cigarette, he took out his mobile phone and handed it up: "You have been out for almost two days, your regiment leader must be very worried, hurry up and give it to me." Make a call from your regiment leader and report that you are safe."

Staff Officer Dai felt that Director Ge was the best leader in the world, so he took the phone and said, "Ju Ge, calling on your phone in Beihu is considered roaming, the phone bill is so expensive, plus roaming charges..."

"It's okay, it's for work."

"Thank you, Ge Ju."

"You're welcome, hurry up and report the situation on our side to your head and political commissar. After the report, I will also report to your head and political commissar to say hello."

"Okay, then I hit?"

"let's hit."

Staff Officer Dai didn't dare to waste the time of the scholar-type leader, so he hurriedly dialed.

The call was quickly connected, and as soon as he heard the familiar loud voice of the head of the regiment, he hurriedly reported the situation of the Linghai reserve camp.

Captain Peng was taken aback, and asked suspiciously: "There are so many equipment? And large excavators and loaders?"

"Well, they are a professional flood prevention and rescue team. The order to rescue the major danger at the Laomiao gate was directly issued by the head of the military region. Now it is the emergency rescue force of the Yangtze River Defense Headquarters in Jingzhou. It is mainly responsible for rescue of major dangers!"

"The head of the military region directly issued an order, so why should we take care of it?"

"The head of the military region will only issue orders at the request of the local flood control department, and it is impossible to manage specific work."

"Understood, they are only affiliated with our division, and the division asked them to affiliate with our regiment?"

"It's not just a call, they are very warm and welcome to the regiment to arrange for me to come here. Captain, why don't you ask Ge Ju to tell you that Ge Ju is the old director of the Linghai Transportation Bureau and a professor-level senior engineer. Shen Shi The commander has to communicate and coordinate with the local party and government leaders, and the battalion commander Han has to direct the emergency rescue, and they are all too busy, and the daily management and logistics support of the battalion are all in charge of Director Ge."

What is the concept of a professor-level senior engineer? It is a master of professional technology in various industries!
Captain Peng had never seen it before, but had only heard of it, so he hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, please ask Ge Ju to answer the phone."

The young man spoke highly of the Linghai Reserve Battalion, especially when he introduced himself, he respected him from the bottom of his heart.

Lao Ge was very happy and satisfied. He felt that the young man was worthy of training. He took the phone and said enthusiastically, "Head Peng, hello! I am Ge Weidong from the expert group of the Linghai Reserve Battalion. Your regiment is our superior unit. Are you Our superior leader, it is reasonable to say that we should report to you immediately, but we received an order on the way to Beihu..."

Not to mention that he is a professor-level senior engineer, even the traffic director of a county-level city is very powerful, not to mention that the task he is currently performing is directly assigned by the head of the military region.

Captain Peng didn't dare to put on airs, and hurriedly said: "Ge Ju, you are an old man, so don't make fun of me. You are well-equipped and more professional than us in flood prevention and rescue. It is an honor for our 132nd regiment to cooperate with you." .”

"Commander Peng, you can't say that. How can we cooperate? The party's command of guns is the fundamental principle of the construction of the people's army! Our superiors ordered us to accept the command of the 132 regiment and cooperate with the 132 regiment to carry out rescue missions. We must resolutely accept you and The leader of Political Commissar Yang."

Lao Ge threw away his cigarette butt and emphasized: "On this issue, not only I have a clear attitude, but our Mayor Shen and Comrade Han Yu, the battalion commander, also have a clear attitude. Mayor Shen also said on the embankment at noon, wait until you resist For the second time, Hong Feng will report to you with Battalion Commander Han!"

People give face, you have to be ignorant of flattery.

Commander Peng hurriedly said: "Don't dare, Ge Ju, listen to me, our regiment is only taking care of your battalion temporarily, and you are indeed more professional than us in terms of flood prevention and emergency rescue, and your equipment is also much better than ours. We Cooperate with you, if we can't bear it here, we need your support!"

It seems that the leader is also good.

Lao Ge was very happy, and said with a smile: "It's not about support, Commander Peng, if there is anything in the regiment, or if you have any difficulties in logistical support, you can call me directly. This is my number."

"Thank you, Ge Ju."

"You're welcome, it should be."

It is also good to have a temporary subordinate unit with strong combat effectiveness and excellent equipment, at least you can call for help if you encounter any problems.

Head Peng raised his head and looked at the political commissar who delivered the meal to the dike, and said with a smile, "Ge Ju, you can ask what the battalion needs the regiment to do, as long as we can do it, we must do it right."

"Captain Peng, you have helped us a lot. The little Dai you arranged is very good, very capable, very serious and responsible for his work. Our Mayor Shen just praised him this afternoon."

"is it?"

"We will change the scene in a few hours. As for where we are going, we don't know yet. Anyway, if we are not busy, Battalion Commander Han and I will go with Mayor Shen to report to you and Political Commissar Yang. If you don't believe me, you can ask us when the time comes. Mayor Shen."

"Xiao Dai is indeed very good. He is one of the most capable cadres in our regiment."

"Thank you to Commander Peng for sending us elite soldiers and strong generals. We all support his work. We specially selected active-duty officers and soldiers to form a picket team, and the picket team was led by Xiao Dai. Mayor Shen and our mausoleum Minister Li of the Marine Armed Forces Department was worried that a pre-appointed officer would disobey, so he specially took the time to send him to the post and introduced him to the cadres above the entire battalion."

Director Ge is simply too good to be good, but unfortunately he is only a temporary superior, it would be great if he was the leader of the regiment...

Staff Officer Dai's blood boiled with excitement, and he was a little overwhelmed with excitement.

Lao Ge stretched out his left hand and patted his arm, and continued: "Don't look at him taking office alone, but he has a lot of tasks ahead, and the work pressure is very high. He completed the first task very well. Confidentiality discipline, the next step is to assist the battalion to strictly implement the system of asking for leave when going out, and organize all officers and soldiers of the battalion to use their spare time to study the regulations."

The subordinates are very capable, and they have such a high evaluation. Commander Peng was equally happy, and couldn't help laughing: "Ge Ju, the political commissar and I also want to thank you!"

"Thank me for what?"

"Thank you, Mayor Shen, and Minister Li for your support of Xiao Dai's work. Your support for Xiao Dai is equivalent to supporting the work of our regiment. Don't be afraid of your jokes. At first, the political commissar and I were a little worried. After all, the reserve army and the active army Not the same."

"Don't worry, when you and Political Commissar Yang have time to come over and take a look, you will know that Xiao Dai's prestige has been established. In his delegation, if he has prestige, the delegation will have prestige."

"Thank you, Ge Ju."

"Commander Peng, we are a family now, and the phone bill is not cheap, so we will not talk about polite words. In terms of troop management, especially news and propaganda, we have encountered two situations now."

"what's the situation?"

"One is the unit designation. Our official designation is Linghai Reserve Battalion, Binjiang Reserve Regiment, Army Reserve Division of the Jiangnan Provincial Military Region. Considering that there are three 'reserves' in a row, it sounds very convoluted."

Old Ge paused, and then continued: "As for our Linghai City, it is equivalent to a county-level city in the Jiangnan Province's planning. Linghai Reserve Battalion of the Military Region."

Head Peng pondered: "I know about this situation. Mr. Xi and Mr. Yao told me when they came."

"The problem now is that the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial Government and the Provincial Military Region have issued a notice this year, requiring cities at all levels to set up a mobile assault battalion for flood control and emergency rescue. Although we are a reserve force, we have a fine tradition. The predecessor of our battalion was a unit with great military exploits, and we inherited the two honorary titles of "Hero Battalion" and "Red Sharp Knife Company", so the superiors entrusted us with the task of flood prevention and rescue."

"You have two honorary titles?"

"Not only the unit has honorary titles, but also individuals. Comrade Han Yu, the battalion commander, was not only awarded first-class merit by the General Political Department, but was also rated as a second-class hero in the national public security system by the Ministry of Public Security."

"Ge Ju, we want to learn from you!"

"Commander Peng, I'm sorry for what you said. We learn from each other and make progress together."

Lao Ge smiled, and continued: "The problem now is that the superiors may have been too hasty when they decided to transfer us to Beihu to fight the floods, or they may have only thought about flood control and emergency mobile assaults, and they didn't ask us for our official number first, so they let us Came in the name of the Binjiang Flood Prevention and Rescue Camp."

Regimental Commander Peng reacted, and said deeply: "You are a heroic army, and honor is more important than anything else. You can't carry out missions under the name of a nondescript unit like Binjiang Flood Prevention and Rescue Camp."

"Honor or not, aside, the flood is almost flooding the river embankment. We don't have time to think about that now. The main reason is that using the name Binjiang Flood Prevention and Rescue Camp will cause confusion in command! All the officers and soldiers of the battalion only know the Linghai Reserve Camp, and they didn't listen to it." I said something about the Binjiang flood control and rescue camp, but when they received the order, they were at a loss."

"Ge Ju, are you saying that you can report this situation to your superiors, and see if you can ask your superiors to clarify?"

"Yes, yes, that's what I mean. I don't know if it's convenient for the regiment?"

"Why is this inconvenient? Otherwise, you can ask Xiao Dai to write a statement of the situation, and I will hand it over to the division for you later. The number is directly related to the command of the troops. The division will definitely pay attention to it, and it will definitely report to the army. .”

"Thank you so much, Captain Peng, you really helped us a lot."

"It's not about helping, but this is actually the job of our regiment."

It's really not a hassle.

Captain Peng smiled and asked, "Ge Ju, you just said that you encountered two situations, what about the other one?"

Lao Ge turned around and looked at the tent of the news propaganda team not far away, and said: "Besides, when we set off, the local media arranged for several reporters to come with us. Commander Peng, you know the situation of the reserve forces. We I really dare not offend those uncrowned kings."

"Ge Ju, what do they want?"

"They didn't think about it, they just wanted to send out the news about our battalion as soon as possible. It stands to reason that it would be a good thing to help us publicize, but we are not ordinary people now, but a part of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, which is carried out under the leadership of you and Commissar Yang. The emergency mission assigned by the superior."

Lao Ge cleared his throat and said very seriously: "In Linghai or Binjiang, it doesn't matter how they propagate. Even if they violate the discipline of secrecy and propaganda, the superiors will only look for the provincial military region and the Binjiang military division. But It’s different now, if they leak military secrets, not only will we be in trouble, but even the regiment and division will be affected.”

Anyone who wants to interview troops can not be interviewed, nor can anyone write anything and publish it!
Captain Peng felt that the old director of the Linghai Transportation Bureau had considered everything comprehensively, so he hurriedly said, "Ju Ge, the political commissar is right next to me. The political commissar knows better than me about this. Why don't we let our political commissar tell you?"

"Okay, great."

"Hello, Ge Ju, my surname is Yang..."

"Hello, Commissar Yang, Commissar Yang. Xiao Dai introduced you to me. He said that you have a high level of politics. We urgently need your guidance in news and propaganda."

"I can't talk about guidance, but there are a few points to be clear."

"You say, I remember."

"First of all, the unit number cannot be disclosed. For example, if it involves our regiment, you can only mention a certain regiment of the Air Force. Considering that the situation of the reserve force is different from that of the active force, you have to check and consider when it comes to the name of the unit."

"Okay, you continue."

"Then we have to make it clear to all officers and soldiers that there are disciplines in propaganda, and they are not allowed to be interviewed by media reporters without permission. Some troops have many officers and soldiers who like to write articles, and they are not allowed to contribute to media such as the People's Liberation Army Daily or the Air Force News without permission... ..."

I know all this. When I was the chief, I had more than a dozen military transferred cadres.

What Lao Ge needed was the authorization of news censorship. He nodded and said yes, and after Political Commissar Yang finished his explanation, he said very seriously: "Please rest assured, political commissar. Next, I will work with Xiao Dai to implement propaganda discipline as a matter of responsibility." Important tasks are to be grasped, and I will take full responsibility for any problems!"

The awareness of the old comrades is high...

Political Commissar Yang was in awe, and quickly said: "Ge Ju, I'm not afraid of your jokes. I wouldn't have thought of these things if you didn't mention them. There are also a few reporters who want to interview us today. In terms of publicity standards, I also have to ask my superiors for instructions."

"It's not that you can't think of it, it's just that you don't understand the situation on our side."

"That's true. The regiment leader and I knew that you were the 'Hong Kong Garrison'. If Xiao Dai hadn't made this call, we really didn't know about your situation."

"In terms of news and publicity, I will first check based on past experience, and wait for the superiors to pay attention to the news and publicity and the propaganda caliber, and then we will implement it according to the latest requirements?"

"Okay, let's do this, and this will trouble you."

"No trouble, what we have to do now is not to cause trouble for ourselves, let alone trouble for the regiment and division."
