Chapter 555: Early morning scout, unexpected incident

"Drip drip"

Early in the morning, a crisp alarm sounded from the third shift dormitory in the first row of Niutouba.

The private who was sleeping soundly suddenly opened his eyes, hurriedly reached out to turn off the buzzing electronic watch on the bedside, then he raised his head and looked out the window with sleepy eyes.

It was still dark outside at four o'clock.

The private looked inside the dormitory again and saw several old soldiers who were startled by the alarm clock. They cursed "fuck" and turned over to continue sleeping.

The deputy squad leader's snoring, like a frog's butt stuffed with chili powder, continued. That guy's snoring was louder than an alarm clock, but all the veterans in the class acted as if they didn't hear it.

The private sighed, he lifted the quilt, put on his pants, fastened his belt, tiptoed to open the door and prepared to go out for duty.

He usually sets the alarm five minutes in advance. Firstly, new recruits should know the rules in the class. After all, it is good enough that he is not asked to take the second or third shift in the middle of the night. He can't always rely on the old soldiers to wake him up. Secondly, he should give himself some time.

The cool breeze of the early morning blew all the way to the gate. The old soldier sitting at the gate in the distance was already drowsy.

There are many sentries of the dam guarding troops. The gate post is just for show, but the other sentries have low alert levels and the management is not too strict.

Except in special circumstances, the on-duty system is implemented.

It's almost the same as the toothless old man at the entrance of the community. He's not tired, but he can't take a nap because there are regular patrols in the camp.

It would be troublesome if you come here occasionally and get caught.

The private walked to the gate, but before he could say anything, the veteran soldier on duty became alert. He grabbed the gun in his hand, looked around, and found that it was a soldier who was changing shifts.

The other party breathed a sigh of relief and handed the gun to the private.

"It's your turn now. Be smart and don't be lazy."

"Yes."

The private took the rifle and watched the old soldier walk away, then he sat down on a chair. He didn't feel anything when he just stood up, but as soon as he sat down, his stomach started to growl.

After completing his twenty-minute patrol, the private pursed his lips and looked around.

Not noticing anything, he hung his head and suddenly felt a little homesick.

Especially when the sun rises around four o'clock and begins to shine through the clouds onto my body, making me feel warm, my homesickness reaches its peak.

In a daze, I seemed to smell the scent of fried dough sticks.

He did not notice that a few dozen meters away from the gate, six or seven sneaky people appeared in his sight.

It was Chen Jun who traveled from Quancheng in two groups, bringing with him a group of people from the Supervisory Department.

"Director, why is there only one soldier on duty at this post?"

Bian Tao stared at the gate for a while, feeling a little strange.

They were all in casual clothes on this trip, but they carried their military uniforms with them, just to test the vigilance of the dam guarding troops.

As a result, when I just arrived, I saw a soldier taking a nap. There was only one person on guard at the gate of the huge camp.

"Some places have different regulations." Chen Jun shook his head: "The gate posts, especially those in remote logistics areas, will have mobile posts."

"Let's go and have a look."

Chen Jun and his companions walked straight to the outside of the gate. Even though there was such a big commotion, the soldiers on duty did not move.

Several people from the Supervisory Department took out a video camera and recorded the entire situation at the gate.

Chen Jun frowned and said nothing, but he had already planned to check the brigade's special training for new recruits, as well as the records of political and military assessments.

With such poor vigilance, he is not up to the standard for duty.

"Let's go and look somewhere else."

Chen Jun watched for a while and didn't plan to wake up the sentry.

At least it would not be advisable to alarm them until they have patrolled the entire perimeter of the barracks.

But there is a saying that it is easier to deal with the King of Hell than with the little devils.

As the director, Chen Jun didn't have so many thoughts on this. His only goal was to enforce discipline. However, Bian Tao, who was usually ignored in the unit, followed the unit for an inspection for the first time.

I don't want to miss such a good opportunity.

Lao Bian lowered his voice and chuckled: "It's so cold to sleep so early in the morning, give him some more clothes."

As he spoke, Bian Tao quietly walked behind the sentry and put his coat on a chair.

This kind of operation is almost a common patrol method in the army. Even though Bian Tao was unfamiliar with it, he didn't dare to put it on his body so as not to alert the sentry.

Instead, Li Wujie smiled smugly and took Chen Jun's coat out of his backpack. Seeing that his battalion commander had no objection, he reached behind him and put the coat back on the private.

Chen Jun shook his head and said nothing. Supervision itself would bring some pain when being rectified.

It was recorded on video, and whether the clothes matched or not, the matter would not have ended like this.

It is nothing more than whether the unit concerned knows in advance or is notified later.

After inspecting the main gate, the people from the Supervisory Department continued to check around the perimeter of the camp.

But it is really hard for the privates on duty.

The guy was so sleepy and hungry sitting there that he finally took a nap and dreamed about food, with an extra coat on his body.

Sleep more comfortably.

He was very excited when the subsequent mobile patrol soldiers came to the gate to check.

From a distance, I saw the sentry on duty at the door. There was something wrong with his clothes. They didn't fit well.

The vigilance of veterans is not comparable to that of new recruits.

The moment he realized something was wrong, he quickly ran to the duty post at the door. When he saw the sentry wearing a colonel's coat with two bars and three stripes, the old soldier's face turned pale.

Holy shit, there's only one platoon stationed in Niutouba Camp, and the platoon leader is only a 12-star. How could he be promoted from a private to colonel just by sleeping?

"Damn it, wake up!!"

The old soldier roared, shocking the private so much that he trembled. He shook his legs twice, then looked up and saw a group of people from the mobile post running towards him.

The private quickly stood up and wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"What else happened? How long have you been away from home and you've been promoted?"

"Who told you you could sleep while on duty?"

"I didn't sleep, I was awake the whole time." Perhaps a little confused, the private was still sticking his neck out to defend himself.

"I'm going to wake up your grandma."

The old soldier was so angry that his eyes almost turned red. He grabbed the private's coat and looked down to see a two-bar-one on the chair.

Look at the words "Eastern Theater Command, Training and Operations Supervision Department" on the armband.

The old soldier's lungs almost collapsed: "You're awake and don't know what this is?"

"Quick, go and sound the alarm, and then ask Old Lou from the third shift to come over."

A veteran is a veteran after all. After cursing for a few times, he knew what he should do most now.

People from the Supervisory Department have arrived, but we don’t know where they are yet. In order to prevent other sentries from being affected, we must immediately sound the alarm and alert all on-duty units.

Woo.
A low and shrill air raid alarm sounded throughout the camp in an instant.

In the dormitory of Class 3.

Squad leader Lou Kewei was sleeping soundly, but when he heard the alarm, he quickly got up from the bed, and a feeling of panic instantly surrounded him.

Damn, it was their third shift on duty at the gate last night, what happened?

"Get up, get up, emergency assembly!!"

Lou Kewei howled, pulled up his trousers, grabbed his coat, belt and hat, and ran out.

As soon as I ran out of the dormitory building, the patrolling veteran came to the dormitory door and said anxiously: "Lao Lou, your gate guard has been checked."

"What the hell, why did you get caught?"

Lou Kewei asked as he fastened his belt.

"I don't know. It was someone from the theater's training and operations supervision department. They put all the clothes on the sentries in your squad, two at a time."

"A colonel and a major." "Fuck, these guys are just eating for nothing. Go tell Platoon Leader Zhou and I'll go take a look."

Squad leader Lou cursed angrily, and we don't know whether he was cursing his own people or the Supervision Department.

Anyway, Old Lou is not slow at all.

That guy ran to the gate as fast as he could, as if he was riding on a Hot Wheels.

When he saw the new recruit in his class with his head hung and two coats in his hands, Lao Lou resisted the urge to kick him.

He took off his hat and scratched his hair: "What happened exactly? Do you still remember?"

"Squad leader, I..."

The private was hesitant and couldn't explain it. He had the impression that it was a hammer.

"I'll settle the score with you later."

Lou Kewei glared at him fiercely. The incident had already happened, and Old Lou was a pretty good squad leader, so he didn't hold on to it.

He quickly scanned the avenue and said, "It's time to go on duty. Turn off the alarm."

"I'm going to call the company commander. We can't handle the people from the Supervision Department here. The company commander and battalion commander will probably be here soon."

"How to deal with this matter depends on what the camp says."

The private didn't dare to say anything at this time. He just felt that the squad leader came and left, and after a while the platoon leader came.

He was temporarily removed from his duty post and taken to the door of the camp dormitory building, where he spent his days waiting for punishment from above.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but I didn’t see the company commander or the battalion commander coming over. Instead, the squad leader who had been running for a long time came back and snatched the clothes from his arms.

"Let's go, what are you doing standing around?"

"The supervisory authority's leader is here and wants to see you. You should be more polite when you admit your mistakes and don't mess with those people, okay?"

"You tell them whatever they ask."

Lou Kewei led the privates back to the gate post. The air raid alarm had sounded. As long as the people from the Supervisory Department had not left, they would definitely come out.

Because it's impossible to find anything anymore.

The highest-ranking officer in a stationed platoon is the lieutenant, and they can't stop the people from the Supervisory Department at all.

Of course, I didn’t dare to stop him.

Once this type of department has checked the documents and made sure there are no problems, the nature of the interception will change.

At this time, Chen Jun did bring his men back to the gate post. He did not plan to continue investigating. He just asked a few questions according to the procedure and then went to the brigade headquarters.

I saw the private who was on duty just now being brought over, and he looked like he was lowering his head.

Chen Jun smiled. He was not from this unit and it was impossible for him to really blame a private.

After Li Wujie took the clothes, he smiled and said, "Okay, mistakes made during duty are mistakes, but such mistakes must be corrected in a timely manner."

"Comrade, what's your name?"

"Report to the commander, my name is Li Gaojun."

"Well, that's a good name." Chen Jun smiled and patted the private soldier on the shoulder: "I can make the decision this time. I won't report you to the higher authorities. The duty of the supervisor is to supervise and correct mistakes, and punishment is not the purpose."

"But you have to realize your mistakes, okay?"

"Yes, Chief."

When Li Gaojun heard that the matter would not be reported to his superiors, he did not show much happiness, because even if the supervisory department did not report it, it would have caused such a big commotion this morning.

The company commander and battalion commander must have been alarmed, but he still couldn't run away.

Think of this.

Li Gaojun grumbled aggrievedly: "I'm too hungry and too sleepy. I can't stand it while on duty. My stomach hurts."

Originally, Chen Jun didn't take this sentence seriously, after all, he was just a new recruit.

It's normal that you haven't adapted to this kind of collective self-discipline yet as you have just arrived at the military camp for a short time.

"Then eat more when meals start. You are at an age where you should eat at 12 o'clock and get hungry at 12:30. Eat more at each meal."

Chen Jun chuckled.

"No, Commander. I can't feel full even if I eat more. Every meal is just rice and steamed buns, so much that I can't finish them. There are not many vegetables. I can't eat them."

"Ok?"

Hearing Li Gaojun's mumbling, Chen Jun was stunned.

Lou Kewei and Platoon Leader Zhou beside them also changed their expressions, but it was too late to say something to change the subject.

Just now, they thought this supervisory leader was quite easy to talk to, so they didn't come close to him and just stood at a distance and watched.

But when they wanted to remind them, six or seven people from the Supervisory Department had already moved and blocked them in the distance.

Are you kidding? What do people from the Supervisory Department do?

Just by hearing this, I could roughly guess that there was a problem. Besides, withholding food expenses was not the first time in the Supervision Department's previous experience.

"From now on, you guys are not allowed to move around, and you are not allowed to go to the agency to make phone calls. Until the matter is sorted out, your camp will cut off all external contacts."

Chen Jun pointed at the squad leader who had gathered around him with a serious expression: "Bian Tao, follow them and gather everyone together. No one is allowed to move around freely before receiving the notice."

"If anyone doesn't cooperate, just write down their name and report them to the war zone and have them get out."

"Yes!!"

Bian Tao responded and immediately took people to supervise the platoon leader and others.

Chen Jun didn't say anything else. He pulled the confused Li Gaojun to a farther place.

"You just said that you only have steamed buns and rice for three meals, and not many vegetables. Can you tell me more about the situation?"

"Sir, I..."

No matter how dumb Li Gaojun was, he knew that he had said the wrong thing just now.

"It's okay, just tell me, I just want to understand the situation. If I remember correctly, your dam guard unit has food subsidies, how come there is no food?"

"No, it's not that there are no dishes, it's just that there are too few dishes."

Li Gaojun turned around and glanced at the squad leader. At this time, Lou Kewei had no time to care about him.

Anyway, Li Gaojun answered whatever the monitor asked just now. He hesitated for a while and continued: "In the past, we had beef every day, a lot of beef, and soy milk. I could drink a pound of soy milk after dinner."

"There is beef available recently, but the quantity is not enough, only a few thin slices, and the vegetables have changed from beef and mutton to chicken and pork, but it is still not enough. There is a mobile stall selling food not far away, and I will go there to buy food when I am hungry."

Li Gaojun was honest and told everything he knew without hesitation.

"That's it."

Chen Jun's expression didn't change when he heard that, but his fingers had turned white from being clenched.

That works.

Replacing beef and mutton with pork and chicken can also reduce the amount. Even a fool would know what's going on, except this silly boy who doesn't understand.

"Okay, I see."

"Wait a minute, don't go back. I promise the food situation will be restored today."

Chen Jun smiled and didn't say anything more.

Instead, he took out his cell phone and dialed the number of the night shift in the Supervision Department, and transferred the call to the duty office of the 92nd Brigade Headquarters.

If the Supervisory Department intervenes to investigate matters like this, the consequences will be very serious.

Once reported, at this critical juncture.

Liu Xiang cannot escape joint liability.

But the brigade’s self-inspection would be slightly better. Chen Jun is not someone who doesn’t know the seriousness of the matter.

Anyway, the Ministry of Supervision is supervising them, so they dare not not investigate.

What's more, the incident happened not long ago, and he believed that Liu Xiang was not aware of it.
