I asked you to repeat your senior year of high school, but did you miss out on joining the military

Chapter 445: The past is like the wind, and it will eventually come to an end
Outside the car window, the soldiers of the Engineering and Chemical Brigade had stopped training, and people from several battalions were scattered around, sitting or standing.

Perhaps seeing the approaching convoy, the surrounding soldiers began to line up consciously.

Chief of Staff of the Engineering and Chemical Brigade, Zhai Changlin rubbed his hands and came out of the command vehicle.

Although he had just given the battalion commander strict instructions, Old Zhai at least represented the Engineering and Chemical Brigade.

That posture must be shown.

Seeing a convoy coming over and dozens of people getting out of the cars, Zhai Changlin was the first to smile brightly, and then strode up to Huang Linfeng, the former head of the Arms Bureau.

He reached out and shook hands with the other person.

"Haha, Old Huang, how come you have so much free time today to come and inspect our dam?"

"What am I inspecting?"

Huang Linfeng smiled faintly and turned to Chen Jun to introduce: "Old Zhai, this is Chen Jun, the new director of our Arms Bureau. Our Arms Bureau has been temporarily changed to the Reconstruction Department."

"Director Chen is also the deputy chief of staff of the 179th Combined Brigade."

"Director Chen, this is Zhai Changlin, the Chief of Staff of the Industrial and Chemical Brigade. We are all old comrades."

Lao Huang acted as a tool to introduce the two people, then quickly stepped aside.

If commanders get involved in the reconstruction of the military region, the actions will inevitably change the previous conciliatory policy. He doesn't want to be the one to ask for or transfer people.

As a technical worker, he still wants to work in the military region in the future and he tries not to get involved in the game between these commanders.

How could Chen Jun not know his little thoughts? This old man was just trying to please everyone and had brought trouble upon himself.

I can't handle it. I was thinking of asking the 179th Brigade to fill in the gap. Who would release people at this time?

Chen Jun didn't have much impression of his former chief of staff. After all, he was just a first-term non-commissioned officer before, and he had almost no direct impression of the leaders of the brigade.

But the necessary etiquette should not be neglected.

After Huang Linfeng finished his introduction, Chen Jun took the initiative to salute: "Hello, Chief of Staff Zhai."

"Haha, Director Chen, you're too polite."

After Zhai Changlin returned the gift, he laughed and shook hands with Chen Jun, looking him up and down.

He said, "I've heard that Director Chen is young and capable. Today I see that his reputation is well-deserved. Compared to you, I'm really old."

There was no falsehood in what Zhai Changlin said.

He had heard of Chen Jun before, but there were many talented people in the military region. Wasn’t Man Zhongcheng from Zhongpei well-known?

Isn’t Zhuge Tao famous?
But at least he had met those people, and they were all about the same age as him, so there was no pressure to greet them. But the Chen Jun in front of him really made him feel a little at a loss.

"Haha, Chief of Staff Zhai is not old at all. Before I set out, Brigade Tao and Chief of Staff Feng told me many times that Chief Zhai of our Engineering and Chemical Brigade is a very capable senior."

"No matter what, I have to learn from my seniors when I come here. From now on, our Combined Brigade and the Engineered Chemical Brigade are all one family. If you don't mind, just call me Xiao Chen. It doesn't matter if I'm the director or not."

"Haha, then you can call me Lao Zhai, it will sound more intimate."

The two met for the first time and praised each other for business.

Old Huang and Li Wujie, who were standing by, looked at each other in surprise.

When Chen Jun came out, didn't he just go back to the dormitory to change his clothes and come here? Brigade Tao didn't show up, and Chief of Staff Feng was nowhere to be seen all day.

Who told him that?
What the hell is this?

But only the two parties involved know exactly what happened.

No one takes names like "Lao Zhai" and "Xiao Chen" seriously.

Chen Jun is here to recruit people and use the Industrial and Chemical Brigade to give away his own money. Can he just say something nice?

Zhai Changlin's heart also skipped a beat, knowing that something bad had happened. This little bastard was so good at talking, calling him "senior" all the time.

It would be difficult for him to interfere too much when they were recruiting people, even though the brigade commander had already told them not to bother with the people from the reconstruction department and to let them recruit people and leave as soon as possible.

But we can't just let them do whatever they want, right?

"cough!!"

Hesitated a little.

Seeing that the people from the Reconstruction Department had all gotten off the car, dozens of officers stood behind Chen Jun, looking up at the troops from the battalions behind them.

Zhai Changlin could only cough lightly, step aside and invite: "The brigade also told us the requirements for the comrades to come here this time. We are all in training."

"Shall we go over and take a look?"

"Okay, just take a look."

Chen Jun smiled particularly happily. He liked dealing with such straightforward people. Otherwise, he would have to go around in circles to explain his purpose.

That's not too much trouble.

At the beginning of the inspection, the seven battalions of the Engineering and Chemical Brigade formed into formations one after another. The soldiers held rifles in their hands and looked ahead with sharp eyes.

Zhai Changlin led the way, while Chen Jun led a group of cadres and walked in front of the Boat Bridge Battalion and the Ground Explosion Battalion.

Even if you want to recruit people, you still have to follow the process.

Looking at the familiar faces, Chen Jun's heart was not at peace. Unfortunately, too much time had passed and he had already forgotten the names of many people.

Apart from the few people in my class, I only felt familiar with the people in other camps, but I couldn't remember their names at all.

Pontoon Battalion, Ground Demolition Battalion, Fortification Battalion, Chemical Defense Battalion, Flameth Battalion, Service Support Battalion, and Combat Support Battalion.

As queues flashed past him one after another, Chen Jun's originally restless and excited heart slowly calmed down.

Because he found that his longing for his old unit was really just wishful thinking.

The warriors here looked at him with only envy, disregard and curiosity, without any sense of familiarity at all.

This is a brand new unit and has nothing to do with him anymore.

call! !

After realizing this, Chen Jun felt relaxed for no reason. In fact, after putting aside his longing for his old unit.

He also discovered that the Engineering and Chemical Brigade was indeed composed of elite soldiers and generals.

There were thousands of officers and soldiers. Although the soldiers were just standing there with rifles in their hands, there was still a faint feeling of the sounds of killing raising the military might and the billowing smoke tempering the fighting spirit.

They are lined up in neat rows and are as powerful as a rainbow.

This feeling cannot be seen in the 179th Brigade yet, because their unit is a temporary assembly and their combat effectiveness and momentum have not yet been developed.

The Engineering and Chemical Brigade is a merger of an old unit and an engineering corps. The military reform only removed the unit's numbers but not the original military spirit of these units.

In other words, the 179th Brigade received too much assistance during the military reform. If this assistance was given to other units, the progress achieved would probably far exceed that of the 179th.

There is no other way. How can a makeshift unit compete with other people’s original units?

If a battalion is not disbanded, it will have the same momentum.

The 7th Battalion of the 1st Brigade was led by Chief of Staff Zhai. Chen Jun looked at them one by one and walked to the Combat Support Battalion.

He looked ahead and saw only a few soldiers coming to participate in the training.

No one came from the jamming company and communications company under its jurisdiction, and Yu Lei was not seen either.

Chen Jun smiled, and the already blurry figure completely disappeared from his heart.

There should be no intersection in this life.

"Director Chen, how do you feel?"

After the inspection, Chief of Staff Zhai asked with a smile.

"It's magnificent, and its momentum is like a sharp sword. It's no exaggeration to say that it's a team that has won a hundred victories."

Chen Jun sighed sincerely, this guy is praising his former unit, he must be using any nice and cool words.

Anyway, there is no charge for nice words.

"Chief of Staff Zhai, I won't beat around the bush. I want to coordinate some of the comrades from the UAV Company, Jamming Company, Reconnaissance and Surveillance Company, Chemical Defense Company, Engineer Company, and Road Company of the Chemical Engineering Brigade and assign them to other combined brigades."

"Assisting with the synthetic construction work, but don't worry, it will take at least one month, at most two months, and once the assistance work is completed, the personnel will be transferred back."

"no problem."

Zhai Changlin nodded happily. On the one hand, he knew that no one would be able to stop the Reconstruction Department once it took action. Not only their Engineering and Chemical Brigade, but also the subsequent Artillery Brigade, Service Support Brigade, Air Defense Brigade, etc. would all be caught in the crossfire.

Because these arms brigades are actually not that difficult. The real difficulty lies in the combined brigade. A brigade originally has only a few arms, and suddenly it has to switch to dozens or even hundreds of arms positions.

Just hearing about it makes my scalp tingle, and you also have to be familiar with new tanks, synthetic training, and information technology. It would be strange if it wasn't difficult.

What can I say about this kind of thing? The Reconstruction Department represents the military region. If they don't show up, it will be basically useless for each brigade to coordinate their backbones privately on their own initiative.

They are all as cunning as thousand-year-old turtles. Who would be willing to take out their backbone?

What's more, it's useless to pay. Without the Reconstruction Department to coordinate, how much is enough to pay?

After the money is taken out, it only solves the backbone problem.

The later stages of running-in, training, improving combat plans and training plans, and exploring the coordination of informatization and integration are still big problems.

This is an act of treating the symptoms but not the root cause.

However, with the Reconstruction Department taking over, and the 179th Brigade itself having a successful precedent, the other units naturally did not want to offend. They cooperated as much as possible.

"Director Chen, there are people from the other companies here. I will arrange for someone to transfer some comrades to you to do their work."

"But the interference company is not training here. I will notify the brigade to allocate some of them to you later."

"You guys go around first, I'll go make the arrangements."

"Okay, that's troublesome."

Chen Jun responded with a smile.

It takes time to transfer key personnel. The chief of staff has to do the work of the battalion commander, and the battalion commander has to argue with the company commander for a while.

He simply wasn't in a hurry.

Watching Zhai Changlin running away, he called a meeting with the battalion commanders. This transfer of personnel had nothing to do with the Boat Bridge Battalion, the Ground Explosion Battalion, and the City Building Battalion.

The three battalions have been disbanded.

Chen Jun looked at the people following behind him and simply waved his hand: "You guys should do whatever you need to do. You don't have to follow me."

"Go and watch the process of selecting backbone members for the Engineering and Chemical Brigade. Follow along and watch. You must learn how to keep watch in the future. No matter who they choose, you should follow behind and whisper a few words to the comrades around you."

"You don't have to let them hear what you say, but you must say it. Go ahead."

When this bad idea came out, the cadres in the Reconstruction Department were confused.

They were not the ones who led the troops, so they didn't understand many of the twists and turns. Seeing this, Chen Jun simply turned his head and looked at Li Wujie: "Do you understand?"

"understood."

"Well, then you will be responsible for communicating with them. You don't need to follow me."

"Old Yang, you should go over and take a look too."

Chen Jun sent away all the cadres around him, faced the familiar wind, and looked towards the grove in the distance.

Damn, that old Huang who sells the goods didn’t come today, he’s lucky.

If I see that guy who is short of weight again, I must go over and have a chat with him.

Since he didn't see Lao Huang, Chen Jun no longer missed him. If people knew that he had gone to argue with others over a roast chicken that was short in weight.

It seems a bit embarrassing.

The city-building camp had just disbanded and was taking a break.

Chen Jun walked over here. Battalion Commander Gao Yuhan had been in a meeting and had not returned yet.

Several company commanders saw the young director of the reconstruction department walking over alone.

Several company commanders looked at each other in bewilderment. The fortification battalion had a total of five companies: two fortification companies, one emergency construction and repair company, one camouflage company, and one blasting company.

Chen Jun could no longer remember the names of many people in other battalions, but he was quite familiar with the company commanders in his own battalion.

Just as the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a happy smile and was about to step forward to say hello.

The five company commanders ran over first, stood at attention and saluted, "Hello, Director Chen."

"Hello."

Chen Jun raised his hand to return the greeting, and the smile on his lips gradually froze.

Since the Engineering and Chemical Brigade is no longer his unit, the Fortification Battalion is no longer his battalion either.

This feeling can only be most intuitively broken by one's own fantasy when one personally experiences strangeness and alienation.

Everything will eventually become a thing of the past.

This place has nothing to do with him now.

"Captain Hao, you don't have to be polite. I just came to take a look. Don't bother with me."

Chen Jun looked at Hao Zhengming, the company commander of the emergency construction and repair company, who was his former company commander. He nodded slightly and said something, then went straight to the second squad's position.

However, several company commanders of the City Building Battalion were bewildered, especially Hao Zhengming, who looked at Chen Jun's back in surprise as he left.

"Fuck, how did he know my last name was Hao?"

"You ask me, who the hell should I ask? Maybe they did their homework before coming to the Industrial Chemical Brigade."

The other company commanders all shook their heads, saying that it was just right not to let them follow.

Who the hell would be willing to follow someone of such a high rank? He makes it hard for them to speak or do anything.

Chen Jun did not notice his mistake because he had seen the squad leader of the second squad, Liu Xuguang, sitting beside the embankment with a gun in his arms, chatting and laughing with the soldiers in his squad.

Han Baoyin, his closest friend in the class, was sitting cross-legged on the ground, holding a gun in his arms, listening to the squad leader's speech.

What a familiar scene.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
There are eight monitors and all the students in the class are present.

But there is one person Chen Jun doesn’t know, and that person must be me in my previous life.

Chen Jun smiled bitterly.

Before he could get closer, the soldiers from the first, second, third and fourth squads who were chatting nearby suddenly stood up.

"Hello, Chief!!"

A group of veterans lined up and saluted, and Chen Jun froze again.

He stood still, returned the greeting in a standard manner, and then waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down.

Seeing the leader coming towards his squad, squad leader Liu Xuguang stopped as he was about to sit down.

"Line up, quick!!"

"Hello, Chief!!"

The soldiers of squad two roared in unison.

Looking in front of me, it is a face that is so familiar that it cannot be more familiar, but at this moment, the relationship has become so unfamiliar that it cannot be more unfamiliar.

Chen Jun's mentality also changed drastically in an instant.

His excitement gradually subsided, and he smiled faintly and waved his hand: "You're welcome."

"I just want to ask, are there any of you going to the combined forces brigade to support the construction?"

A lame excuse.

The soldiers in the second squad stared at each other, but no one said a word.

Only Liu Xuguang stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Commander, if the combined unit needs us, we are willing to go over and provide support."

These were the exact words their battalion commander had just spoken during the meeting.

"You are the monitor, right?"

"Yes, Commander, my name is Liu Xuguang, and I'm the leader of the second repair and construction team."

"Well, my name is Chen Jun, deputy chief of staff of the 179th Combined Brigade."

"Squad Leader Liu, do you want to work in the General Staff?"

"Report to the commander, I..."

"Tell the truth, speak from your heart."

Chen Jun added with a smile.

"Well, I don't want to. The Industrial Chemical Brigade is my home, and the Second Squad is my group of brothers. I don't want to move."

Perhaps because he saw that the young leader in front of him was easy to talk to, Liu Xuguang hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth.

He is still that upright squad leader, still that iron-blooded man.

But he doesn't recognize himself anymore.

Upon hearing this, Chen Jun nodded slightly, then looked at Han Baoyin, who didn't react at all.

The mouth looks at the nose, and the nose looks at the heart.

The answer is already obvious.

Chen Jun sighed inwardly, took out a pen and paper from his pocket, and wrote his cell phone number on it.

Stuffed it into Liu Xuguang’s pocket.

"Squad Leader Liu, keep going, you are a good squad leader. If you or your classmates need help any day, no matter what, you can contact me."

"That's all, you guys continue to rest."

After Chen Jun finished speaking, he turned around and stared at the people in Class 2 again, then strode away.

Everyone in Class 2 was left alone with a puzzled look on their faces. Liu Xuguang took out the note, looked at the phone number, and then looked at the figure leaving.

I scratched my head and didn't take it seriously.

It seems that there is nothing for their second squad to worry about that the deputy chief of staff should worry about.
