Chapter 447: Breaking the Reconstruction Deadlock, the Dark Director Chen

The Industrial and Chemical Brigade was furious.

Naturally, it was not hidden from the people from the reconstruction department who left.

Huang Linfeng, who was already in the car, heard faint noises coming from behind and kept turning his head.

He looked out the car window and saw that the various battalions on the embankment were beginning to gather together. Even though it was almost dark, the momentum of training continued unabated.

There was also a faint roar.

Even if one's brain is not very smart, one can guess that something is wrong with the person who was just taken away.

Huang Linfeng looked at the scene outside for a long time.

Then he looked at Chen Jun with a worried look, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Director Chen, is it because we took away too many people?"

"I don't think we need so many people. Didn't Chief of Staff Zhai say that he would send us comrades from the interference company later?"

"If you take away too much at once, you won't be able to deal with them later."

Listening to Huang Linfeng's long chatter in his ear, Chen Jun just shook his head slightly and leaned back in his chair with some fatigue.

He didn't even bother to respond.

We will deal with each other later.

Do you really think that renovation work is like negotiating a business?

Everyone is dressed in suits, talking and laughing, drinking, chatting, bragging and massaging feet, and it can be done?
Stop it.

If it was really that easy, would the higher-ups have to just rename the Military Branch Bureau and throw all the responsibility at the 179th Brigade?
To know.

Each unit regards its backbone as more important than its lifeline, and holds them tightly in their hands. Even if their own battalion commander wants to recruit people, the company commander will talk to you for a long time.

How could it be so easy to recruit people from various units just by relying on a reconstruction department?

What's more crucial is that it is useless to pull out a group of ordinary soldiers and assign them to various combined brigades.

Which brigade still lacks ordinary soldiers to lead it?

The purpose of military reform is to gather one veteran who can do the work of ten other veterans, set an example in each new unit, take the lead and revitalize the stagnant units.

It doesn’t matter whether there is any major progress or not. What matters is to find the end of the tangled thread first.

An excellent soldier will never be buried no matter where he is, even though he just recruited only forty-odd backbone members.

In terms of effectiveness, it is enough to replace three or four hundred ordinary soldiers.

As for whether the Engineering and Chemical Brigade will make subsequent arrangements to send more soldiers from the interference company over.

This is not important at all.

Because even if it is sent over, it will definitely not be the type that usually performs well.

Seeing that Chen Jun didn't say anything, Lao Huang also consciously shut his mouth and stopped talking.

About an hour later.

Chen Jun led his men back to the brigade headquarters in a mighty procession. Several soldiers from the transport company of the Engineering and Chemical Brigade dropped off the men and then turned around and drove away.

It seemed as if they were afraid of the 179th Brigade and wanted to leave them behind as well.

After Chen Jun got out of the car, he changed his tired state and started to give orders continuously with full energy.

"Old Huang, take these comrades to the First Combined Battalion to find Captain He and tell them that I asked you to go there. Settle the comrades from the Engineering and Chemical Brigade in the First Battalion first."

"In the past, there were many companies and garrisons in the First Battalion. Now there is a vacant dormitory building. You can take the people there first."

"Row."

Although Huang Linfeng was puzzled as to why these people were not quickly assigned to other combined brigades, he just let it go.

The people Director Chen brought here with his own ability must obey his orders.

"Xiao Wu, go borrow a few vehicles from the transport company and go to the first battalion with Lao Huang."

"Go find Fatty He there and tell him that I'm the one who assigned him. Ask him to contact the Second Battalion, the Third Battalion, the Fourth Battalion, and the Combat Support Battalion as soon as possible to pick someone up."

"Yes!!"

"By the way, bring all the comrades from the reconstruction department with you and try to come back later. Don't let me see you before nine o'clock."

"Oh, good."

Li Wujie nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, listening to a series of instructions in a daze.

Although he had been with Chen Jun for a long time, he knew his battalion commander's temperament very well.

But it’s not clear what’s going on this time.

But he is just like Lao Huang. It doesn’t matter whether he understands it or not, as long as he knows what to do.

Not long after the entire convoy arrived at the brigade post, it changed its destination again and headed towards the combined battalion.

Chen Jun stood at the gate and watched the convoy go away.

He then let out a long sigh, raised his hand to rub his swollen and aching temple, and was just about to go over to find Tao Lu to report.

Yang Chuanzhou walked over from the side.

He looked at the convoy curiously, then at Chen Jun, took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it to him and asked: "What are you talking about?"

"Why did you pull the people back and send them back to the first battalion?"

"Aren't these people helping those synthetic units?"

"I helped them pull it."

Chen Jun smiled and nodded, then lit the cigarette in his hand, took a deep breath, exhaled two streams of smoke from his nostrils, and lowered his head to look at the time on his watch again.

“But I didn’t say I had to give it now.”

"You have been in a field unit for a short time and don't understand how important the backbone is to a unit."

"I just pulled so many people from the Industrial and Chemical Brigade. What do you think the Industrial and Chemical Brigade will do?"

"Will you get furious?"

Old Yang raised his head and thought for a moment: "Then order that from today onwards, no one needs to inform you when they see you, and no matter when you go to the brigade, you will be stopped at the gate?"

"If only it were that easy."

Chen Jun heard this, he smiled bitterly, and then said slowly: "I'll tell you what they will do."

"Chief of Staff Zhai would indeed be very angry, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he would get, and he would report the matter to the brigade."

"The brigade commander knew that his backbone was being taken away, and he certainly didn't want to swallow this loss, but all the cadres of the reconstruction department came to his door to ask for people, and he couldn't force them openly."

"He would call the 2nd Combined Brigade, the 35th Brigade, the 160th Brigade, the 178th Brigade, and the 235th Brigade to tell them that the reconstruction department was doing a very good job."

"The Engineering and Chemical Brigade fully cooperated and arranged for a large number of experienced comrades to be concentrated in the 179th Brigade."

"What do you think will happen when these five people from the combined unit hear that there are a lot of experienced people here?"

Damn it! ! !

Yang Chuanzhou was so stunned by Chen Jun's abrupt analysis that he froze in place.

If that's the case, the 179th Brigade will definitely be attacked by people from other units.

Barging the door to demand someone?

Seeing that Lao Yang had realized what was going to happen next, Chen Jun spread his hands, threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, and crushed it with his foot.

Then he strode towards the brigade headquarters building.

Just as he said just now, military reform and reconstruction is not an easy task. It can even be said that this is a collective reorganization of all units in the military region.

And the person who carried out this rectification was Chen Jun.

Once this work begins, it is bound to offend people.

Otherwise, Chen Jun would not have been packed up and taken back from the Arms Bureau on the 28th.

And during those two days, he didn't make any movement.

It wasn't until today, the 31st, that I started taking people out for a trip.

The main reason is that he knows this job is difficult.

When there was no movement from his side, various units would contact Huang Linfeng, hoping that Huang would negotiate on their behalf and remove a few key members from the 179th Brigade.

What would happen if other units knew that the Reconstruction Department had already made some moves and had key personnel to be assigned?
There is no need to doubt it at all.

They will definitely come to your house with a clear conscience to ask for your help.

The title of Director of the Reconstruction Department sounds impressive, but it is not a good job. Even Chen Jun now doubts why the military district gave him this task so easily.

Could it be that he did this because he saw that Brigade Tao was about to be transferred, and to the 72nd Army, and was not afraid of offending others?

This is something I'm thinking about.

Chen Jun didn't stop and hurried straight to the brigade commander's office.

With such a big mess happening, the only thing left now is for Tao Lu to step in and deal with it.

Otherwise, if the other synthetic units really came to the door to demand people, he didn't want to fight back.

Don't get me wrong, it's not that we can't handle it.

Rather, Chen Jun is currently the director of the reconstruction department, and it is not appropriate for him to have any ideological bias.

We cannot overtly show that we are helping the 179th Brigade first.

Otherwise, it will not stand.

After all, the Reconstruction Department belongs to the entire military region, not to a specific unit.

But it is even more impossible for Chen Jun to be so relaxed as to give away the backbone personnel he had acquired for nothing.

Chen Pixiu's nickname is not for nothing.

Chen Jun also wants it, but he doesn't want to share it. Even if he wants to share it, he has to wait until the 179th Brigade uses it for a while.

This is really difficult.

Arriving at the door of the brigade commander's office, Chen Jun first stuck his head inside and took a look, and found that Brigade Commander Tao was sitting on the sofa inside reading a newspaper.

Just as he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, Tao Junming's deep voice came from inside: "Don't knock. What are you doing standing outside stealthily?"

"Come in!!"

"Haha."

When his little action was discovered, Chen Jun gave a dry laugh in embarrassment and straightened his military uniform.

Then he strode into the office, stood at attention with a snap, and saluted: "Hello, Brigade Commander!!"

"What a shit."

Tao Junming put down the newspaper in his hand and stared at Chen Jun with a half-smile: "Tell me, have you gotten into trouble again?"

"No, it wasn't a big deal."

When Chen Jun saw Tao's expression, he knew that what he had done had probably been known to the brigade commander through other channels.

He could only say awkwardly: "Brigade Commander, I just brought a few people back from the Industrial Chemical Brigade and wanted to come over to report."

"Huh, you're quite clever."

Tao Junming snorted coldly, then strode to the desk and sat down: "How many did you bring? You are really bold."

"We brought back sixty-seven people from the Chemical Engineering Brigade. Are these the number you mentioned?"

"Old Su from Gonghua has now been shouting throughout the military region that he will cooperate with the reconstruction, and has even sent the backbone of the entire brigade to the reconstruction department."

"What do you think we should do about this?"

"In less than half an hour, several other synthetic units will send people over to ask for the person. What do you think we should do about this?"

"The duty of the Renovation Department is to have you assist in the renovation, not to have you take on too much responsibility and show off your abilities."

"You're not stupid, don't you know that doing this will offend a lot of people?"

"It's unfair, Brigade Commander."

Chen Jun knew that Commander Su of the Engineering and Chemical Brigade would do this, and he immediately complained: "I know that reconstruction requires coordination, but we have to find a unit and make an opening first before we can find an opportunity for coordination."

"Otherwise, if all units start to cry poor, and everyone feels the same, then work won't progress."

"Don't give me a lecture."

When Tao Junming heard this, he waved his hand in anger and cursed: "The joint training will start soon, won't you find another opportunity then?"

"By then, with so many officers from other units coming to study, wouldn't it be great if we could just find an opportunity to communicate with each other?"

"But Brigade Commander, joint training is the best opportunity to win over, not the best opportunity to negotiate."

"It doesn't matter if we offend them now. When the time comes, the joint education and training will ease the tension. I will talk to them more and build relationships with them. Then this matter will be over."

Chen Jun hummed and hawed to defend himself.

But his words also made Tao Junming stunned.

Yes, it’s better to offend people severely now, and then learn to be more gentle in a few days.

Lao Tao weighed Chen Jun's proposal in his mind. He didn't really want to scold Chen Jun, but a breakthrough had to be made before the reconstruction could begin.

If we want to break the current deadlock among the various units, we must first muddy the waters.

Tao Junming naturally understood this point.

He just didn't want Chen Jun to offend anyone in this matter, just like what Feng Qiuhu had warned Chen Jun before.

When you are a company commander or a battalion commander, it's fine as long as you don't make mistakes in principle.

But starting from the deputy regimental level cadre, one must be careful and cautious, otherwise, any random thing may affect future promotion.

Because of different personal circumstances, you never know whether the person you offended will come back to haunt you in a few years.

Think for a moment.

Tao Junming continued: "No matter what, you can't take all the people to the first battalion."

"I have just talked to the chief of staff of the military staff, and the chief of staff also supports this reconstruction."

"I will come to our brigade in person later. You have to give up at least some of the people you brought back."

"Otherwise, even with the Chief of Staff present, this matter would not end well."

"no problem!!"

This time, Chen Jun agreed quite readily.

"Brigade Commander, do you think it would be okay to give it to twenty people?"

"It's not that we don't want to give them. It's mainly because the comrades in the Industrial Chemical Brigade have never been exposed to synthetic chemistry before. Even if we give them directly, they can't help much in an unfamiliar field."

"Why not study in our camp for a while and then be assigned."

"Row."

Tao Junming didn't know what Chen Jun was thinking, so he nodded and said, "Then give it to twenty people."

"But not now. When the final results come out, I will arrange for twenty people to be transferred from the first battalion."

"If you want to perform, you have to perform the whole set."

"Let them watch. We are indeed a temporary transfer."

After Tao Junming finished speaking, he stood up and stretched his body: "You should go hide too. You made such a fuss."

"It's definitely not going to be too comfortable in the other brigades. It doesn't matter to the people I'm about to transfer away. You don't need to get involved."

"Yes, Brigade Commander!!!"

Chen Jun saluted again and then strode out of the office.

There is no need to hide.

He was sitting in the deputy chief of staff's office. Could those people really come to his office to find him?
After Chen Jun returned to the office, he began to call the First Battalion, and specifically instructed them that if they were to arrange for twenty people, they should bring the twenty people originally selected by the Engineering and Chemical Brigade.

Don't bring the backbones picked later.

Do you think Chen Jun’s behavior is a bit too inhumane?

No, no, no, some things require drastic measures to be effective.

As for why we had to separate those twenty ordinary soldiers, it was obvious.

Since Chen Jun has said it, since these people have not undergone synthetic learning, it will be useless to take them back.

At least we need to establish this statement first.

When Chen Jun is willing to transfer the backbone personnel later, the synthetic units will naturally compare the differences.

No one will say anything at that time. Only when there is a gap will people feel that the reconstruction department has considered everything carefully, and the subsequent work can be carried out better.

Anyway, the Chemical Brigade claims that they are all backbone personnel, so they are all the same.

Chen Jun himself would definitely not admit the details of these twenty people.
