Soldiers Assault: Veteran Special Recruits

The squad leaders of the division headquarters set out in several groups, and Political Commissar Lu was the first to arrive at the village where the conflict broke out.

Political Commissar Lu was very worried on his way here and had already prepared various plans to effectively resolve the conflicts between the military and the local authorities.

When he arrived at the scene, he found that the situation was not as serious as he had thought.

The village chief arrived before Political Commissar Lu. He did not stand from the villagers' perspective and seriously denounce Old A's, but instead cursed them like a shrew.

And very wise.

Without saying anything else, he directed everyone present, including the villagers and several Old A's, to sing "Three Major Disciplines and Eight Points of Attention" with him.

The Three Disciplines and Eight Points of Attention are widely sung and are also very meaningful songs.

Singing this military song together can not only imply to several old A's that what you are doing is wrong and violates the discipline of your army.

It can also let the ordinary people present know the difficulties faced by the soldiers in the army, arouse a certain resonance, and resolve conflicts through understanding.

When Political Commissar Lu drove up, the old As had already started singing with the villagers.

Seeing such a great unity between the military and civilians, Political Commissar Lu's heart, which had been in his throat, finally settled down, and he decided to work harder to completely resolve the conflict.

"Hello, fellow villagers. I am Lu Yunhe, the political commissar of the First Division."

Political Commissar Lu introduced himself first, and after the villagers had focused their attention, he continued, "I was still quite far away when I heard your singing, and you sang very well.

After listening to you singing, my throat also itched and I wanted to sing a song with you.

So, let's sing a song together, let's sing a chorus of unity between the army and the people, singing that the army and the people are one family. "

"Good, very good." The village chief was very supportive and led the applause.

Croak, croak, croak.

The whole audience burst into applause.

"The army and the people, we are one family. Get ready to sing!"

As Political Commissar Lu stood in the middle and took the lead in command, a military song that was very suitable for the current scene sounded again, and the contradiction, which was not big to begin with, was resolved with the song.

Jackie Chan drove to the Information Brigade camp first and found Long Xiaoyun who had already returned.

It is useless to go directly to the power supply station. It has no meaning in resolving the conflict. Only by finding Long Xiaoyun to understand the situation first can we effectively prevent the situation from escalating.

"Captain Long, I want to know why you sent troops to occupy the power supply station?"

Jackie Chan found Long Xiaoyun and got straight to the point.

“Commander Cheng, there are some things to deal with. We have sent a detachment, but we are not sending troops to occupy the place. Instead, we are sending the military and civilians to help him better manage the power supply station.”

Long Xiaoyun had already thought of an excuse in advance, and was able to answer the successful questioning with ease.

"I know you have been short of electricity recently, and the main reason is the unstable power supply. But sending troops to the local power supply station is a bit impulsive after all. In order to avoid the situation from escalating, withdraw the people first." Jackie Chan persuaded.

"I'm sorry, I can't do it now." Long Xiaoyun rejected Jackie Chan's proposal.

"Why?" Jackie Chan asked.

"I can't let my new equipment sit idle day by day, nor can I let hundreds of officers and soldiers sit idle all day long." Long Xiaoyun said confidently.

"No matter how big the difficulties you encounter, you should not conflict with the local authorities. You should find ways to overcome them on your own. If you cannot overcome them, then report to the division headquarters and we will find a solution together." Jackie Chan said seriously.

"We can't build a power plant right now, and we don't have the money to rent generators. My troops are very special, and what they need most is electricity. Equipment needs to be debugged, and personnel need to be trained, and all of them require a stable power supply."

Long Xiaoyun once again contradicted Jackie Chan and asked seriously, "Let me ask you, if a war breaks out tomorrow and our information troops cannot be deployed, how will Li Chenglong fight against the enemy's information?
How do you defend against the enemy's electromagnetic attack? How do you prevent the enemy's high-intensity frequency interference? How do you ensure communications? How do reconnaissance equipment operate? "

What Long Xiaoyun proposed are all practical, and are also the value of the Information Brigade.

"What you said makes sense. Your information brigade is indeed very important to the synthesis division. I will give priority to dealing with the problems you are facing. But before that, you must withdraw your people immediately."

Jackie Chan no longer persuaded as before, but gave orders as the mayor.

"Okay, this is what you said. You are the commander, and I believe you will do what you say."

Long Xiaoyun could not disobey the order of his commander, and since Jackie Chan had already made a promise, he did not insist any further and turned around to drive.

There was no need for the two of them to drive two cars over. Jackie Chan stood there waiting for the car to arrive.

A female soldier ran over secretly and said, "Commander, please don't blame Long Da. She really had no choice but to do this."

"Oh? Really? Tell me about it." Jackie Chan asked.

"Longda is organizing us to develop software, a brand new E5W command and control system software. Several power outages occurred without notice, and all the data storing the key program codes were lost. The work of more than a dozen programmers for a week was wasted. She was very sad, so..."

"Okay, I get it, I'll fix it."

Jackie Chan saw the car coming over, interrupted the female soldier, waited for the car to drive in front of him, opened the door and got in.

As the two drove to the power station, Political Commissar Lu had already resolved the conflicts among the villagers.

Accompanying the old village chief, we had a private chat.

In order to solve the problem of water collection in the village, it is very necessary to communicate well with the village chief. Only by communicating well with the village chief can the hidden dangers be completely solved.

"This is our responsibility, old village chief. Please come with me to the army later. I will treat you to a meal as an apology to you." Political Commissar Lu invited warmly.

"As for the responsibility, it's not all yours. I think you should each be given fifty lashes. As for the meal..."

The old village chief laughed heartily and said, "I don't know if you have good wine there. If there's no good wine, I won't go there. I just like that, haha."

This was obviously just polite talk, and it was impossible for Political Commissar Lu, who was in charge of political work, not to understand it.

"Hahaha, of course there is. I will definitely prepare good wine and food for you."

Political Commissar Lu followed up on the old village chief's words, and then, in order to lighten the atmosphere, he changed the subject and asked, "Old village chief, when did you join the army?"

"Me? That's a long time ago. I was born in 1953 and didn't get to fight the American devils. It's my lifelong regret."

The old village chief sighed with great regret, and then suddenly asked in confusion: "Oh, by the way, how did you know that I was a soldier?"

"Hahaha, the mark left by being a soldier can never be erased in a lifetime. We are all the same." Political Commissar Lu said with a big laugh.

"That's for sure. It's engraved in our bones and flows in our blood."

The old village chief expressed his strong agreement and asked, "Comrade Chief, when did you join the army?"

"I joined the army in 1973, which means I joined twenty years later than you. If you really count, you are still my old squad leader, haha." Political Commissar Lu laughed.

"No, no, no, I am not qualified to be the squad leader. I am just an old man, and you are the head of the army." The old village chief said politely.

"Old senior, excuse me for asking, when was the last time you had a meal in the army?" asked Political Commissar Lu.

"That's a long time. After I came back from the army, I haven't eaten in the army again. It's been more than 50 years, half a century has passed." The old village chief said with emotion. "Then you came at the right time. This time I must let you feel what it was like to be a soldier." Political Commissar Lu said.

"That would be great."

The old village chief immediately perked up and said expectantly, "I'm old now, and I often think about the past. It would be great if I could reminisce about the past."

"Then I must arrange it for you."

……

Political Commissar Lu and the old village chief had a very pleasant conversation, and they went to the nearest special forces brigade camp together, allowing the old village chief to reminisce about the past and solve the problem completely at the same time.

On the other side, Jackie Chan and Long Xiaoyun drove to the local power supply station.

There were two guards guarding on both sides of the door. Although they were from the Information Brigade and were not equipped with guns, the aura of the power supply station was immediately enhanced by the sight of them guarding the gate in military uniform.

Long Xiaoyun drove into the gate, parked the car at the side of the road in the yard, got out, and walked towards the power supply station together.

"Reporting to the division commander, the second squad of the first network team of the information brigade is cleaning and checking the maintenance equipment with the comrades at the power management station. Please give instructions."

Deputy Captain Cao Ying, who was in charge here, trotted over to report to Jackie Chan.

"Where is the director? Take me to find him." Jackie Chan ordered.

"Director Ma is inside. Please wait a moment, Commander. I will go and call him over." After saying this, Cao Ying strode out.

Soon a middle-aged man wearing a shirt and trousers came over.

"This is our division commander, he came here specially to see you." Cao Ying introduced.

"Hello, Stationmaster Ma."

"Hello, hello, leader."

Jackie Chan extended his hand to greet him, then asked seriously, "I really want to know why your power supply station keeps cutting off the power to our troops."

Stationmaster Ma was overwhelmed by Jackie Chan's aura. Seeing such a young, tall and mighty commander made him nervous.

He quickly complained and explained, "Oh, boss, we can't do anything about this. Things are very complicated. Let's go in and sit down and talk. Let's go in and have a cup of tea."

"Row."

Jackie Chan nodded and strode over.

The group came to the reception office of the power station and sat down around a desk.

"Actually..."

Stationmaster Ma said as he poured tea: "We also know that the troops have a heavy workload, and pulling the switch will have a great impact on their work.

But we also have to listen to the higher-ups. We will send electricity wherever they tell us to, and shut down whatever they tell us to shut down."

Stationmaster Ma poured two glasses of water and placed them in front of Chen Long and Long Xiaoyun respectively.

"I don't want to hear what you said. I need to know the main reason for the power outage." Jackie Chan took the lead in speaking very strongly.

"You may not know that we have everything here except water and electricity."

Stationmaster Ma sat opposite and said helplessly: "Although troops occasionally came here for training in the past, there have never been so many troops stationed here at once.

Especially your Captain Long's troops, their electricity consumption is really huge, even more than that of a factory.

The power supply line of our station is not high and can only support local electricity consumption. It is already overloaded and can only barely maintain its operation.

Now that your troops have arrived, there is no way to maintain the electricity.

According to regulations, troops like yours that are stationed here for a long time must apply for dedicated lines and transformers to separate themselves from local electricity use.

To install dedicated lines and transformers, you need to pay enough capacity expansion fees first, but you have never paid. "

Stationmaster Ma was being realistic, and Jackie Chan could tell he wasn't playing tricks on the army, so he asked, "How much is the capacity increase fee?"

"It will cost at least several hundred thousand." Stationmaster Ma replied.

"Hundreds of thousands? Do you need so much?" Long Xiaoyun was shocked by the number.

Although it is now 2008 and domestic wage levels have increased, hundreds of thousands are still not a small sum of money.

"Don't be fooled by the high cost of the additional capacity. You should know that this dedicated line does not come from me. It has to be pulled from a substation dozens of kilometers away to deliver it to your troops. Hundreds of thousands is already the minimum cost."

Stationmaster Ma complained to Jackie Chan again, "Leader, we really didn't intentionally drain your electricity, we just had to do so.

There has been a drought recently. Ordinary people need to irrigate their fields and factories need to produce. It would be bad if any of them stopped working, because in the end the country will suffer the losses.

We have always been very supportive of the troops and believe that they are more important, so we have always prioritized ensuring your power supply.

Just like the power outage before today, we deliberately cut off the power to several villages so that you could use it for half a day. "

Stationmaster Ma spoke the truth with all his heart, and the culprit for the deliberate power outage was completely eliminated.

Now there's only one thing left.

How to solve the problem of stable electricity consumption!

"If the capacity increase fee is in place, how long will it take to build a dedicated line?" Jackie Chan asked.

"About a month or so," replied Stationmaster Ma.

"Stationmaster Ma, let's do this. I will find a way to pay for the capacity increase as soon as possible. Our troops have a special mission these two days and cannot have a power outage. I hope you can find a way to support us. If we really have to shut down the power, please be sure to notify us one hour in advance. Can you do that?" Jackie Chan made a request.

"I, I'll try my best to think about it." Stationmaster Ma could only agree helplessly.

After all, he is just the director of a power supply station, and he has a bunch of leaders above him. If he wants to ensure the electricity supply for the troops, he really can't guarantee it.

but.

Jackie Chan never thought about the power supply station being able to provide power 24 hours a day. He only wanted the latter, but he had to give one hour's notice in advance.

As long as the power supply station can notify him in advance, he will find a way to ensure electricity supply later.

Now that Stationmaster Ma has agreed, there is no point in staying here any longer. Jackie Chan said to Xiaoyun, "I think we have almost reached an agreement on the situation. Let's prepare to withdraw. Call all your people."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

Long Xiaoyun believed in Jackie Chan's ability to solve problems, even though she had no idea where to get the money or how to supply electricity after the power outage.

It's unconditional trust!!!
