Chapter 475 Two-month plan, being a chief of staff is not easy

With an extremely anxious mood.

Several battalion commanders pushed open the door of the conference room, all prepared to be scolded.

But when I looked up, there was no one in the entire meeting room.

Brigadier General Feng and Chief of Staff Chen were not here.

Seeing this, Fatty He breathed a sigh of relief, touched his round belly, and chose a seat to sit down.

Although Lao He was promoted to deputy chief of staff of the brigade, how can this be explained? Chen Jun's position as chief of staff was only recognized by the military region, and he was actually still the deputy chief of staff.

In the list of military cadres, their 179th Brigade did not have a chief of staff, only a deputy chief of staff.

Therefore, this also led to the fact that Fatty He's deputy chief of staff was only nominated and could do the work of the general staff department, but he should still stay in the camp as usual.

At most he has a part-time title and is responsible for working hard, but don't expect anything else.

I found out that none of the leaders who were supposed to attend the meeting came.

Ma Hongjie, the commander of the Third Combined Battalion, also pulled up his trouser legs, sat down neatly on the chair, and rubbed his cheeks worriedly.

"Brothers, the Chief of Staff clearly stated before the battle that if the casualties do not reach a ratio of 1 to 5, you must all stand upside down and write a self-criticism."

"Except for the First Battalion, which performed well this time and achieved a casualty ratio of 1 to 3, we can't even reach to ."

"That's different."

Qi Shaoxiang, the commander of the Fourth Combined Battalion, crossed his legs and tapped his fingers on the table as he analyzed, "Old He has led a tank company before. When the Chief of Staff led the First Battalion, Old He led two tank companies. He understands this kind of armored cluster close-range combat the best."

“这次一营战损1:3,二营1:1.6,三营1:1.8,我们四营战损连1:1都维持不住,太丢人了。”

“That’s because the 236th Combined Forces Brigade is more powerful than we thought.

Zhao Ziheng, the commander of the Second Combined Battalion, shook his head and continued.

During this joint training, it was not only Chen Jun and the superiors who saw the shortcomings of the 179th Brigade.

The battalion commanders who were commanding on the scene felt it at close range. Four combined battalions rushed towards the half-crippled 236th Brigade at full capacity, but were still held back for more than minutes.

The whole team was almost destroyed.

The enemy was so tough that even the cadres on their side found it difficult to deal with.

If it weren't for the subsequent action of the Electronic Countermeasures Company of the Combat Support Battalion, which continued to interfere with enemy communications and jammed walkie-talkies, the target allocation of the 236th Brigade would have been inconsistent.

The firepower output was messed up.

The final result is probably hard to predict.

After discussing for a while, they all fell silent, thinking about how to deal with the chief of staff's anger.

Writing a self-criticism while standing upside down.

Grandma has legs.

This kind of difficult move is not easy to complete even for soldiers who are only 18 or 19 years old, let alone their battalion commanders who are in their thirties.

If they really want to write it, it will cost them half their lives.

In the entire conference room, only the commander of the air defense battalion, Dou Wei, was sitting there calmly, with his round face tilted up and not saying a word.

Because during the joint training, they just practiced their mobility and didn't do anything else.

The commander of the reconnaissance battalion, Xiao Jianfeng, was also very natural. They did not contribute much this time, except for sending out some soldiers to mark the location of the 236th Brigade.

No mistakes were made.

The only happiest person was the battalion commander of the combat support battalion, Lu Zhengming. This guy stole the show in this joint training.

His contribution is greater than that of the four main battalions. How can he not be happy?

But whether I am happy or nervous.

Everyone waited in the conference room for an hour, but Chen Jun didn't come.

The initial uneasiness and happiness disappeared.

Several battalion commanders looked at each other, and when their eyes met, everyone realized a problem.

broken! !
That's right, it's broken.

Everyone present was familiar with Chen Jun's style of doing things, that is, he was a workaholic.

It is impossible for Chief of Staff Chen to deliberately delay the meeting. Whenever such a problem occurs, it must be that something else has happened.

As for what it was, no one could guess for the time being.

But there are only nine battalions in the entire 179th Brigade, and the battalion commanders are all here, so if anything happens, there will be people present.

Soon, an hour and a half passed.

Outside, there was still only the sound of staff members coming and going, and no one came to the meeting room.

At this time, no one here could laugh anymore.

Two hours passed.

Just when the battalion commanders were feeling restless and their palms were sweating.

The door of the conference room was pushed open with a clang.

Chen Jun walked in with a calm expression.

"Hello, Chief of Staff!!"

Several battalion commanders present stood up and greeted in unison.

"Please sit down. You don't have to be so polite."

Chen Jun waved his hands. On the surface, nothing seemed wrong with him.

But the battalion commanders sitting below were secretly sweating, because they had known Chief of Staff Chen for quite some time.

Chief of Staff Chen's methods of commanding battles are indeed ruthless and unreasonable, but he is usually quite kind in his own unit.

Always smiling.

If he doesn't smile, he's definitely doomed.

Thinking of this, several battalion commanders straightened their backs consciously. That thing was almost as big as the war zone's year-end conference.

Chen Jun noticed everyone's actions and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he quickly restrained it.

Then he leaned forward and placed his arms on the conference table.

Chen Jun looked around and said, "Comrades, I want to ask you a question."

"If a unit wants to develop and build, what does it need most?"

heard asking.

Several battalion commanders felt a sudden pang in their hearts, thinking that something had gone wrong.

Because as a people's army, if a unit wants to develop and build, there is no doubt that what it needs most is work style.

We have always heard of excellent work style. When the leaders praise a unit, it doesn't matter whether it is for good housekeeping, strong combat effectiveness, or effective ideological education.

They would all praise the unit for its excellent work style.

This is the foundation of a military force. If there are problems with work style, then there is no point in talking about development and construction.

"You don't know anything?"

Chen Jun waited for a moment, but received no response. He frowned and looked at everyone present.

Fatty He saw that no one said anything, so he stood up and said loudly: "Report, if a unit wants to develop and build, the most important thing is its style."

"Be specific."

Chen Jun still had a cold face.

"Yes!!"

Fatty He swallowed and continued loudly: "The military style is reflected in a high degree of collectivism, a high sense of mission and honor, and the goal of fulfilling the mission, and not fearing hardships, difficulties, life and death tests."

"This includes having strong military professional qualities and being able to accomplish various tasks and goals."

"Yes, it seems you all know it."

After Chen Jun finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped the conference table.

The sudden noise startled everyone present.

"Before I talk about this matter, let me first tell you why I'm late."

"I believe that all comrades are clear about the gap between us and the 236th Brigade during today's joint training."

"Originally, this gap was within my expectations. You guys have only been training people for half a year, so I can understand that there will be a gap between you and their veteran troops who were directly reorganized."

"But what I can't understand is that if you can't defeat them in a war, do you still need me to teach you how to retreat?"

"Ah?!!!" Chen Jun's words made everyone present feel a chill in their hearts.

I roughly understand what happened.

Something must have happened when the battalions in the joint training area returned to their bases after they came for the meeting.

But obviously, Chen Jun didn't intend to give them too much chance to think about it.

After the angry rebuke, he gritted his teeth and cursed: "Even though the 236th Brigade was defeated and its four battalions were shattered, they were still able to gather the troops in the shortest possible time after the joint training battle was over."

"An orderly retreat."

"But what about us?"

"The 236th Brigade has been retreating for an hour, and some of our soldiers are still laughing and sharing the battle process."

"You fought well, and you fought honorably, didn't you?"

"Captain He."

Chen Jun stared at He Yingtao: "Where is the high spirit of collectivism, the high sense of mission and honor?"

"When the 236th Brigade retreated back to the brigade, Chief of Staff Ji called me to discuss the command of this operation."

"Our soldiers are still leisurely wandering around the joint training ground."

"Is this the style you're talking about?"

"Is this the strength you showed me?"

As Chen Jun continued to scold, the scalps of several battalion commanders became tense.

Because there is no need to think.

The chief of staff found so many problems, and also raised the issue of work style. The entire brigade will inevitably have to go through a long period of rectification.

They were right.

Chen Jun came late on purpose. As for whether the 179th Brigade retreated slowly, it was indeed a little slower than the 236th Brigade.

But it's definitely not as exaggerated as he said.

As for why we do this, is there any need to think about it?
Before the commander-in-chief of the 179st Army left, he specifically instructed that they would be given two months to deal with the th Brigade. His meaning was very clear.

The military district saw the brigade’s combat effectiveness, but it did not live up to its reputation at all.

It can help them suppress their emotions for two months without being disturbed by the outside world. It is time to reorganize themselves. Otherwise, they will be targeted by the war zone and used as a whetstone for the entire war zone.

Given the current situation, let alone winning.

No matter who the 179th Brigade fights, I'm afraid the chances of winning or losing are -.

There are too many old troops. Just because they don’t understand synthesis doesn’t necessarily mean they don’t know how to fight.

Even if they use the joint regiment's fighting style, they will be able to defeat the 179th Brigade with their excellent military qualities.

That's really embarrassing.

This is a military district, giving the entire 179th Brigade time to develop.

But can I tell this kind of thing to the people below me?
Of course not. If I say it out loud, who knows what kind of shitty version will be spread.

Therefore, there is only one way before Chen Jun: to reorganize, reorganize, and reorganize again.

Of course, as a chief of staff, you can’t just touch your upper lip and say that rectification should be carried out.

It is the soldiers and the grassroots cadres who suffer.

There must always be an excuse, a reason.

There is nothing wrong with using work style issues as an excuse, and Chen Jun scolded the battalion commander harshly.

After the battalion commander returns, will he be able to let it go?

He would definitely catch the company commander and give him a severe scolding. The company commander would be trembling with fear and would vent his anger on the squad leader when he returns.

If we get to this point, then the signal for rectification has been sounded.

It makes sense.

"Why are you silent? Are you mute?"

"I tell you, when you return, each of you must write me a 10,000-word combat report."

"Give it to me before noon tomorrow."

"If anyone continues to fool around with this, don't blame me for speaking rudely in the future. Just get out of here."

After Chen Jun finished speaking, he patted the conference table again.

This guy, a cadre, waited in the conference room for two hours and was scolded.

Hearing that I could leave was like being pardoned.

No one dared to say another word. They quickly stood up and walked out, fearing that if they walked too slowly the chief of staff would ask them to stay for a talk.

In the blink of an eye, the entire conference room was empty.

Chen Jun stretched his ears and listened to the people outside walking away, then he rubbed his palms. Damn, to be honest, it's really not easy to be a chief of staff.

Not only do you have to pay attention to the training situation in the brigade, but you also have to ensure your acting skills are always up to par.

We have to be able to scare these battalion commanders.

Otherwise, without the cooperation of grassroots cadres, the rectification work will be just a formality at best.

Because only the battalion commanders can keep an eye on the training status of each battalion, company and platoon. Chen Jun cannot do it alone.

After having his temper tantrum, Chen Jun stood up and left the meeting room and went straight upstairs to the office of Political Commissar Xu Wensheng.

At this time, in the political commissar's office.

Brigade Commander Feng Qiuhu, Political Commissar Xu Wensheng, and Political Department Director Yang Chuanzhou were all present.

Seeing Chen Jun coming, Lao Yang moved his butt to make room for him.

Brigade Commander Feng Qiuhu looked up at Chen Jun and said with a smile: "Is the performance over?"

"Come on, come on, sit down and have some tea."

Brigade Commander Feng pointed at the new tea that the political commissar had donated out of his own pocket and said with a smile.

Chen Jun glanced at the people at the scene and sighed helplessly. In fact, sometimes he really felt sorry for his political commissar.

These bastards are just like a group of vampires, always coming over to suck the political commissar's tea.

Brigade leader Tao had been transferred away, but now Brigade leader Feng has arrived. Even Yang Chuanzhou, that bastard who rarely drinks tea in normal times, has figured out the trick and comes over to take advantage of the situation.

However, although Chen Jun was dissatisfied in his heart, he was quite sociable in his actions.

He picked up the tea and drank it all, then smacked his lips and said, "Brigade Commander, Political Commissar, next time you can't let me do this kind of work alone."

"You two, one is the deputy secretary of the party committee, and the other is a senior party official. The brigade is going to undergo a two-month rectification. You can't not show up for such a big event."

"Don't be so ungrateful when you get the advantage."

Feng Qiuhu raised his head and glanced at Chen Jun unhappily: "Letting you take charge of this rectification work is to train you."

Look, the brigade commander is worthy of being the brigade commander, what he said is very beautiful.

The words "train you" left Chen Jun speechless.

The political commissar Xu Wensheng next to him continued with a smile: "Okay, now is not the time to think about whether to exercise or not."

"We can't pretend we didn't hear what the commander-in-chief said."

"Since they gave us two months, it means the military district has anticipated the situation we will face in the future."

"It is often said that if one's virtue does not match his position, disaster will come. The old saying will not deceive us."

"The military region saw the problem during our joint training this time, and the 236th Brigade may have also seen it, but other units could not see it."

"Perhaps at this time, many old units are eager to fight us. We must formulate a rectification plan."

"It will take two months, until National Day, and during this period we must at least double the combat capability of our entire brigade."

"Otherwise, we will definitely not be able to withstand the continuous challenges from other units."

"Everyone, please share your thoughts. Rectification is a must. How should it be implemented specifically?"

The political commissar's words are very pertinent.

Chen Jun also fell silent and began to think carefully.

This was also an extremely difficult challenge for him because before the joint training.

Even he didn't realize that the combat effectiveness of the 179th Brigade would vary so much among different units.

If it is not solved in time, there will be real trouble.
