The chief asked me to go for a walk, so of course I should go.
And it was obvious that Zhuang Yan had something to say.
The two of them kept walking along the path near the guest house without any destination.
The greening of the army camp is very good. The guest house of the White Eagle Brigade is close to the brigade headquarters. It is built at the foot of the mountain, with white walls and green trees, and a quiet environment.
It was just getting dark and the street lights were dim.
Walking straight ahead along the asphalt road, Zhuang Yan spoke first.
"After reading the command system of the White Eagle Brigade today, what do you think?"
Li Zheng said: "I don't have much impression. Our brigade is also developing in this direction, but we have to admit that it is a little later than them and the upgrade of their combat command system is not as complete."
Zhuang Yan said: "At our table just now, Minister Long Gang was very confident. He was not polite at all and gave the White Eagle Brigade a very high evaluation. He did not give any praise to us, the combined brigades below the theater.
word."
"I think it's normal." Li Zheng said: "The White Eagle Brigade was built by Minister Long hand in hand. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a biological son, and it is natural to protect the calf. But..."
At this point, the conversation stopped.
"What?" Zhuang Yan asked, "What do you have to say?"
The relationship between Li Zheng and Zhuang Yan is not an ordinary superior-subordinate relationship. There is also a sense of master-disciple relationship, so there is no need to worry too much about what they say.
If it were Ma Liang or Liao Qiming, the conversation would definitely not be so easy and natural.
"Chief, don't you feel something weird?"
Li Zheng frowned slightly and looked sideways at Zhuang Yan with interest.
"The atmosphere during this observation was not right."
"Atmosphere?" Zhuang Yan said, "You mean Wen Zhaohui's attitude?"
Li Zheng said: "Yes, I also checked his background information. He was very valued in the years after he came out of the military academy. Later, he was benched because he contradicted his superiors. Later, he was directly transferred to the coastal defense force and served for ten years.
He has been on the bench for many years. If you want to talk about ability, he definitely has it, and he is better than many people. But if you say that his personality is too sharp, or even that he has a high self-esteem, it is okay. When he contradicted his superiors,
Because when I was a company commander, I directly scolded my mother during the exercise, criticizing the leader of their regiment for not understanding tactics, and not yet executing the orders issued by the regiment commander, leading the team to act without authorization. Although they won in the end and performed well, but...
He was marked for disobeying orders and no one dared to use him, so he was finally transferred to the coastal defense force."
He solemnly nodded and said: "Yes, in the army, obeying orders is the first principle. If you have opinions, you can reserve them or even treat them flexibly, but you must not openly disobey orders."
After a pause, he continued: "I also know a little about what you are talking about. He was appointed by Long Gang. When Long Gang was at the National Defense University, he went to the grassroots troops to investigate and accidentally discovered Wen Zhaohui's commanding talents. This led to his later development.
Appointment to the White Eagle Brigade."
Li Zheng said: "So, Wen Zhaohui was actually quite suffocated, and now he has been released. I can feel his efforts and dedication in the construction of the White Eagle Brigade, including everything I saw today.
It was built with dedication and hard work. Chief, do you know what I saw when I looked at him in the command center today and asked Chief Xu to give him a question?"
Zhuang Yan said: "Let's talk about it."
Li Zheng said: "When he came up with the battle plan within 15 minutes, I could feel his joy. He looked at everyone in a different way, as if to say - look at you mediocre people! I think
, is a silent demonstration and protest against him sitting on the bench for more than ten years, and also a demonstration against the leaders who transferred him back then."
Zhuang Yan nodded and smiled: "That's a bit of a meaning."
Then he said: "It seems that you have studied him very deeply."
Li Zheng said: "Chief, I come from a special operations background, and intelligence analysis is also a required course."
solemnly said: "You understand intelligence better than the average special forces commander. The Xue Bing who was invited to teach your brigade an intelligence analysis course last time is not an ordinary person, he is a professional."
Li Zheng said: "We met by chance. It took a lot of trouble to invite him. It is not easy to invite him."
Zhuang Yan said: "Let's get down to business. Tell us what you think is wrong with the atmosphere."
"Oh, I almost forgot." Li Zheng patted his forehead lightly and said: "I said before that Wen Zhaohui was kicked out and benched for so many years, which led to his current flamboyant behavior. It is reasonable, but today
But it's different. He is not only venting his dissatisfaction, nor is he just demonstrating. He is also suppressing us chiefs of staff. Inviting us to come, in the final analysis, made us lose our determination to compete with him during the two days of observation.
It’s like psychological warfare.”
Nodding solemnly, he said: "It does mean something like that, including the access control. In fact, it is to let us know that he knows us well."
Li Zheng said: "His intelligence collection channels are not deep enough. He thinks he is very deep."
Hearing this, Zhuang Yan smiled and said, "Did you see it?"
Li Zheng said: "Chief, you can see that they can't get the information from Lao Baimao."
Zhuang Yan said: "Yes, so from that moment on, I felt that there was some deliberate bluff in him. It's just that Minister Long Gang was behind his plan to support him. He and Long Gang are the same type of people.
My old comrade-in-arms was a former classmate of Minister Long, and he commented that his junior fellow student was 'outstanding talent, sharp edge, modesty, and sharpness'. This character is very similar to Wen Zhaohui."
Li Zheng was delighted: "That's why Minister Long likes Wen Zhaohui. Speaking of which, the two of them can be considered sympathetic to each other."
Zhuang Yan said: "You really need to work harder for the confrontation exercise in three months. I took a look today and found that neither Ma Liang nor Liao Qiming has much confidence. The commander in the theater also said that if this time
Which brigade still loses will have to consider the next step of adjusting the brigade command team. This matter also puts a lot of pressure on me."
Li Zheng understood. As the new army chief, Zhuang Yan, if all the brigades below had diarrhea and failed in two consecutive exercises, he, as the army chief, would inevitably be questioned by the theater chief.
"Don't worry, I have been thinking about how to fight the White Eagle Brigade for the past six months. Wen Zhaohui invited us to watch and suppress our confidence. I don't know if it will be effective for others, but it will definitely not be effective for me.
I can also take this opportunity to see the gap between us, and go back to upgrade my troops."
"Okay, I'm relieved with your words." Zhuang Yan said, "But let me remind you that with today's momentum, there will probably be more exciting drama tomorrow, and we must be prepared."
Li Zheng said: "It's okay. The White Eagle Brigade will set up a stage to entertain guests. As guests, of course we can't let their performance be without applause. If there is a chance tomorrow, I will add some 'applause' to them."
After saying this, the two of them smiled knowingly.
"Go back, get some rest early, and see what other exciting arrangements they have tomorrow."
