Chapter 352 Great Contest (Secondary [-])
Lu Ming didn't interfere with the training during the day, but he had to attend the cultural class at night, talking about the legal system and the rights of citizens.

On the third day, it happened that Master Gong's case was officially opened.

As a result, various newspapers and periodicals became the reading materials for the cultural class in the evening. Shao Shengxi read them to all the soldiers of the Second Company and organized them to discuss them.

Some were on the side of Master Gong, and some hated all the corrupt officials. Sometimes the two sides would quarrel and even fight.

Time flies, and there are still four days left before the three-competition contest with Fang Dazhuang.

On Sunday, the third company practiced extra, but the second company had a normal holiday as usual.

Some soldiers couldn't help muttering, is this really good?The bigger the chief, shouldn't he be more face-saving?The highest officer in the army is here, and he is going to compete with other companies. Should he have a holiday on Sunday?
……

In the afternoon, Lu Ming came to the dormitory of the fire platoon.

The infantry company of the Black Mountain Brigade has about 190 people. It consists of three infantry platoons and one firepower platoon. Each infantry platoon is divided into four squads with 11 people in each squad.

The firepower platoon is not divided into shifts, equipped with three light machine guns, one heavy machine gun, and two 60mm mortars, and each weapon surrounds a combat group.

The platoon leader is Bao Dalong, a burly man with the rank of second lieutenant.

The platoon deputy Gao Laoxi, the rank of sergeant, is also the leader of the heavy machine gun team.

The soldiers were obviously veterans, ranging in rank from corporal to sergeant, and there was only one private, a private first class.

When Lu Ming came in, almost all the soldiers of the firepower platoon were in the dormitory. The dormitory had bunk beds, more than a dozen green wooden beds, and more than 30 bunks.

The internal affairs are well organized, and the soldiers are also in groups of three or five, playing cards or chatting.

However, it was obvious that someone was standing guard outside. Lu Ming suddenly brought Yuluan into the dormitory, and someone immediately shouted, "Stand at attention!"

And the soldiers who put the cards and other things in a mess immediately stood upright one by one.

Lu Ming waved his hand, and returned the military salute to Bao Dalong who walked over quickly to salute, and then smiled: "It's okay, you are free, disband!" And said: "I just came to take a look and chat with you casually."

Bao Dalong waved his hand, and immediately a soldier brought a chair and placed it next to the desk in the middle of the dormitory.

The other soldiers stood neatly in front of the desks, more than 30 people, standing in three rows.

Lu Ming waved his hand, "Sit as you like, sit on the bed, sit on the bed." As he spoke, he moved the chair to the side facing the dormitory bed.

"Everyone sit down!" Bao Dalong gestured, and the soldiers stepped over, three or five of them sat on the same bed, all sitting upright.

"Sir, has the content of the martial arts contest with Sanlian come to an end?" It was Gao Laoxi who was talking, and he had always been very loose, but he seemed to be attaching great importance to this martial arts contest.

But he didn't go to see Yuluan very much, obviously because he was a little embarrassed.

And Yuluan's unpredictable skills are also rumored in the army, adding a lot of mystery to Commissioner Lu.

Lu Ming smiled: "Yes, it's settled. The handbook will be distributed tomorrow morning for everyone to see. In the next few days, we will be fully prepared for this competition." A hundred miles away, there is a mountainous area that we are not familiar with, let's compete with Sanlian, whoever conquers a target there first."

"This exercise, whether it is the referee group, props group, coefficient evaluation, casualty calculation, etc., is a new thing, and it is the first time our Black Mountain Brigade has come up with a plan. Therefore, this exercise is actually not only The contest between our second company and the third company is also a practice to improve the relevant exercise plan."

Gao Laoxi chuckled, "It sounds like a very profound thing for cultural people, and was it brought by the chief from the East China Sea?"

Lu Ming smiled, "You can say that."

In fact, I have played the World War II simulation game, there are related exercises in the training subjects, very realistic game.

Of course, no matter how realistic the game is, it is definitely different from reality, and the relevant content is also extremely brief.

But in this world where no large-scale battles have taken place after the era of hot weapons, compared with the contemporaries of the previous life, the concept of military exercises is the Stone Age. Therefore, the exercise methods, coefficient calculations, etc. I learned from the game, In terms of concept, in this world, it is the enlightener. Of course, it must be perfected through practice.

Lu Ming glanced at Gao Laoxi again, and said with a smile: "From my identity as the commander of the Black Mountain Brigade, it doesn't really matter whether I win or lose when I compete against Sanlian. I mainly want to promote new methods of military exercises." After a pause "However, from my point of view as the interim commander of the second company, we must win this exercise. If we lose, it will be a shame to me! It is the same to you!"

Bao Dalong, Gao Laoxi and all the soldiers, some of them were bold, some of them had smiles on their faces, but now they all became serious.

"Yes!" Bao Dalong and Gao Laoxi stood up first and stood at attention, "Everyone of the Second Company Fire Platoon~, stand up~! Listen to the commander's instruction!"

Swish, swish, all the soldiers stood up, each standing straight.

Lu Ming also stood up, "Actually, during this period of time, you listened to the radio every day, listened to outside news, and listened to political trainers talking about the southern world and the western world. Now, you are discussing the case of the former governor of Longgang in this city."

"You should all have your own ideas about the former Governor Gong case."

Lu Ming looked at Gao Laoxi, "Vice platoon senior, tell me, what do you think about this case?"

"It's time to kill!" Old Gao said the cold words from between his teeth.

Bao Dalong frowned immediately.

Lu Ming nodded: "I also know that Platoon Leader Bao has a very different opinion on this."

"Actually, it doesn't matter. You probably don't know that this former Governor Gong is my powerful arm, and I brought it from the East China Sea."

Everyone was stunned, looking at Lu Ming in disbelief.

"In this case, you can actually think whatever you want, freedom of thought and freedom of speech, but the final verdict is decided by the court and the jury!"

"And I think, because the defense lawyers will participate in the selection of the ten-member jury, plus the judge's sentencing power, Gao Laoxi, your extreme ideas will definitely not be realized, but I understand why you have This kind of thinking. You think that every penny of ink or gifts should be killed, so as to deter corrupt officials. This kind of thinking comes from the distrust of the official system. Why don’t you trust them, because they are not transparent, They live in the Iron Curtain, everything in their lives is tightly wrapped in black cloth, and wantonly shape their sanctity, making them like saints, but once the fig leaf is pulled down, Lao Xi, like you, will There will be a collapse of faith and a complete loss of trust in this group."

Lu Ming shook his head.

"Actually, it is true. How can there be a saint? Relying on self-discipline to maintain moral character? That is just a beautiful fantasy of the ancients."

"Everything still depends on a system that can be improved step by step, and it depends on the supervision of public opinion."

"Just like Lao Gong, he was the first official in Montenegro who could be covered by the media after he was dismissed, but he will not be the last. Now, many newspapers are just poaching his partner Gao Shaoting? The media is the same as the incumbent. You can dig and write whatever you want."

"In the future, these things will be very common. Once officials break the law, it will become normal for ordinary people to be sued in court."

Lu Ming smiled and looked at them.

"Actually, it is impossible for all of us here to be rich and powerful. In the end, it is the portrayal of most of us who are willing to live in ordinary daily necessities. So, what kind of world do we want to live in? I hope it is a power system A society that is as transparent as possible, a society where the gossip of officials at all levels, and the business of seven aunts and eight aunts can be reported by the media, a society where ordinary people in Montenegro can point at me and scold me, I think this kind of world is ours. Most ordinary people are the world our descendants need."

"Don't say that the world is impossible to be equal. What we have to do is to try our best to pursue equality and justice. At least, Lao Xi, in such a world, your village chief and township chief will definitely not dare to bully you. Into the cage, the first thing is to face the power of the grassroots officials of the common people, the power that the common people can feel the pain, but in fact, the most important thing to govern the grassroots power is the supervision of the legal system and public opinion, which means that you are all supervisors, and you can always have the power to sue them."

"In the future, when will the word "official" carry less weight in the hearts of our descendants, our goal..."

Lu Ming said and shook his head, "It's far away!" Looking at them, "You are now holding guns. What you want to protect is such a world, or what you want to protect is the prototype of such a world. You want it Stillborn? Or do you still have the blood in your heart, even if it is idealism, wanting to defend the emergence of such a world? Tell yourself in your heart, give it a try? Follow Chief Lu, let’s give it a try?"

"I'm an idealist, and I want to give it a try, just like what I told you when I came here on the first day, whether our life is rich or glorious, poor or miserable, it's just the dust of history after all. , the insignificant dust in the universe, then, is it possible to leave a trace for yourself, once lived in this world?"

"Most of you on the radio like to listen to storytelling by chivalrous men. I think that true chivalrous men should be idealists, who would sacrifice their lives for the sake of such a world, and would not hesitate to do so!"

Bao Dalong and the others were fascinated by what they heard, and they didn't speak for a long time, and they didn't know what to say.

Most of them felt that their thoughts were ups and downs, and there was an inexplicable throbbing feeling.

Looking at this young and mysterious officer, no one spoke, because in a trance, there seemed to be an illusion, as if standing in front of him was the chivalrous man in the storytelling book, with white clothes fluttering. , with the green blade in his hand, gathering ideals, trying to smash the boundless and dark sky.

Even Chief Lu and his entourage didn't know when they left.
