I asked you to repeat your senior year of high school, but did you miss out on joining the military

Chapter 359: Overt Conspiracy, you call this two?
"Go away, go away, get out of here, what kind of questions are you asking?"

"You have nothing to say?"

Chen Jun was surrounded by several people, who had just held a "Ascension Conference" on the roadside.

The smell of cigarettes in my mouth was like three oversized ashtrays, blowing into my nostrils all at once.

Chen Jun pushed everyone aside with disgust.

"Old Chen, this is where you're wrong."

He Yingtao patted his legs which were numb from squatting and said cheerfully: "We are just concerned about you. What did Li Haiyao's family say?"

"Nothing much. She will be transferred to work in our brigade in a few days."

Chen Jun explained it again.

Clerk Deng Jiawei nodded frantically beside him, as if trying to add authenticity to the battalion commander's words with his actions.

"What about the bride price? How much?"

Liang Kexiang asked the question that concerned him most.

"this."

Chen Jun hesitated for a moment.

He really didn't ask about the bride price, mainly because it seemed inappropriate to ask such questions given the environment at that time, right?

Li Haiyao seemed to have never mentioned the issue of bride price, and no one knew what the customs were in Kyoto, or whether a family like this would ask for a bride price or something.

Seeing that Chen Jun couldn't answer, He Yingtao on the side thought seriously for a while, and then he analyzed: "If you ask me, asking about the bride price is nonsense."

"Those who can step into Comrade Li's house are not short of money for the bride price, and those who are short of money cannot step in."

"It's all about attitude. Since they are willing to transfer their daughter to work in the brigade, this is better than anything else. We have succeeded in the first step."

"Next, we should..."

"All right, all right, stop."

Seeing that the three people gathered around without any serious business, and even started to make plans for the future, Chen Jun quickly raised his hand to stop them and said: "Let's talk about this later."

"I'm in a hurry to come back, not to talk about these things. The other battalions in the brigade are about to be disbanded, so we have to take action first to get the good soldiers over there."

"Don't you know about the demobilization?"

Disband? !!!
Chen Jun's words completely cooled down the excitement of the discussion among the people, just like a bucket of cold water was poured on them.

Or rather, I was shocked by the news.

"When did it happen?"

He Yingtao spoke quickly, saying that they really didn't know about this.

In the morning, the brigade notified all battalions to hold a meeting. The clerk only knew that one battalion was not included in the meeting. After all, they were a pilot battalion and similar situations were not uncommon.

No one noticed anything was wrong.

The brigade was anxious when they received the news. Battalion Commander Chen Jun was not at the unit, and the brigade would not deliberately notify them at all. It had nothing to do with them anyway.

"Just this morning, I just came back from the brigade headquarters, and Brigade Leader Tao also told me about the reorganization, except that the original organization of our first battalion will remain unchanged."

"The 179th Brigade is responsible for all units except the battalion, company, and platoon leaders. All soldiers will be transferred to other units. At this time, it is estimated that each company is taking inventory of the supplies in the warehouse."

"I plan to recruit some veterans from other companies to supplement the infantry platoon. If I don't go now, I'm afraid that all the people will be privately reserved by various units tomorrow."

What Chen Jun said is true.

Although the 179th Brigade is a motorized infantry brigade, it is also a foreign brigade with a lot of elite soldiers and generals.

Once the news of the reorganization gets out, the cadres of various units within the group army will swarm over it like locusts.

Even if the military district issues an order to transfer all personnel to the mechanized infantry brigade or the artillery brigade, the purpose is to be able to draw large quantities of firepower from these two brigades in the future pilot projects.

But this rule is useless.

As the saying goes, every policy from the top has its countermeasures from the bottom.

You are all old comrades from the same army. They came here with a few notes from the brigade and clearly wanted a few people. Could you refuse to give them to them?

The eyes of those who selected soldiers were all as sharp as a crane's beak, extremely vicious.

If you go too late, you won't get any good soldiers.

Upon hearing Chen Jun's plan, deputy battalion commander Ma Hongjie's eyes flickered but he said nothing.

He Yingtao also had a worried look on his face. He thought for a while and said, "Old Chen, it's true that we can definitely get good soldiers if we go to recruit people at this time, but our timing is wrong."

"They are all from the same brigade. They are in the process of disbanding and are very busy. If we go over to ask for them now, we might offend them directly."

Lao He's worries are not without reason. In the past, when the battalions and companies under the 179th Brigade went to ask for backbones and soldiers, it was just a matter of socializing and negotiation among the cadres.

If you can get it, then come. If not, forget it. Even if the deal doesn’t go through, there’s still a sense of justice.

But now his unit is going to be disbanded. Who can feel good about this? The troops he has led for so long are disbanding just like that.

To put it bluntly, going up to ask for help at this time is like adding insult to injury and pushing down a wall when it is down.

Especially since their first battalion did not need to retreat.

After listening to Lao He's analysis, everyone was silent.

This is indeed a difficult matter to handle. Just now at the brigade headquarters, Brigade Leader Tao did not give a direct response when he heard that they were going to recruit people. He was just worried about this issue.

Even the brigade commander has to consider internal stability and ideological factors.

The bottom line is that the disbandment was too sudden.

Whenever there was talk of reorganizing the pilot brigade some time ago, there was a hint of disbanding, which gave each battalion some time to prepare in advance.

It's not that serious.

Chen Jun noticed the depressed mood of several people, but there was no worry on his face. He smiled and took out a few hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to the clerk.

"Who said I was going to ask for someone?"

"Go to the store over in the Second Battalion and buy a few packs of Huazi first, and then buy some candy. The redder the wrapping paper, the better. It would be best if it's the kind used for wedding candies."

"You must have plenty of candy. If you don't have enough money, you can pay for it first. I'll get more for you when I come back."

"Go for it!!"

Deng Jiawei took the money from the battalion commander and looked at Chen Jun in a daze.

He didn't understand. Why were they chatting so happily when someone suddenly asked him to pay?

He Yingtao next to him was the first to react. He slapped himself on the forehead and gave Chen Jun a thumbs up: "Fuck, Old Chen, you are really vicious."

"Count me in, damn it. I'm not going to ask for help today. I'm accompanying the battalion commander to distribute wedding candy."

"I wonder if any of those grandsons would have the nerve to just eat the candy without mentioning giving it to others."

As he spoke, Lao He also took out two hundred yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into the clerk's pocket.

After his interruption, Ma Hongjie and Liang Kexiang next to them both reacted.

Everyone looked at Chen Jun.

It’s no wonder that Tao Ludu commented that Chen Jun was mean and mean. Who in his right mind would have thought that he would go to someone’s camp and ask for help under the pretext of distributing wedding candies?

Yes, with this excuse, they will definitely not ask for people, but they have smoked the cigarettes and eaten the candies, and we will still have to rely on their battalion for future reorganization.

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, who doesn’t know each other’s little tricks?
It's really poisonous
Liang Kexiang and Ma Hongjie grinned, took out two hundred yuan from their pockets and stuffed them into Deng Jiawei's pockets.

They were all cadres of the battalion party committee. It was no big deal for them to contribute some money to seek welfare for the camp. Besides, Chen Jun had already returned their share of the money from last time.

The army pays salaries at the beginning of the month, so these guys have plenty of money in their pockets.

Seeing that several cadres had such unanimous opinions, no one objected to the battalion commander's proposal.

Clerk Deng Jiawei grinned, held the money happily, and drove straight to the soldier service center next to the Second Battalion.

What can I say about Chen Jun's idea? It's an open conspiracy.

The whole brigade knew about his visit to his father-in-law's house, and they also knew that the daughter-in-law that Battalion Commander Chen was thinking about came from a high-ranking family. He went to his father-in-law's house, the matter was settled, and he was happy and came to hand out some Huazi and wedding candy. Who could say anything?
As the saying goes, one should be grateful to those who have eaten the food and be soft-handed to those who have received the gift. These people are both greedy and snorting, and they would feel embarrassed to admit that they are being disbanded if they don't say goodbye before leaving.

But for this kind of thing, not too many people should go. The battalion commander and the political instructor can just represent an entire battalion.

So, after discussion, Chen Jun and He Yingtao returned to the battalion dormitory and changed into slightly newer military uniforms.

Carrying the two bags of hard liquor and ten bags of wedding candies that the clerk had bought, he headed straight for the tank camp.

As for why I went to the tank battalion, there are many reasons.

First, the first battalion has two tank companies, and they have always been short of backbone personnel in this area. Chen Jun has been thinking about them for a long time.

The two motorized infantry battalions were not afraid of being picked by others first. After all, as long as they were veterans, they were much better than training new recruits.

Second, the tank battalion had a good relationship with the first battalion, and the battalion commander Xiao Jianfeng liked to touch other people's cigarettes to smoke. Chen Jun had suffered a lot from this before, so this time he took the initiative to offer them to him.

That old guy must know what it means.

On the other side, inside the 179th Brigade Tank Battalion.

Each company is driving all tanks out of the artillery range and carrying out final maintenance and upkeep on the vehicles.

Because of this disbandment, not only will all the personnel be left behind, but even their 96G tanks will have to be coded and transported to the armored division to fill out their tank establishment.

The brigade announced the disbandment too suddenly.

When Captain Lian Xiao walks, he usually looks up to the sky and walks like a man who doesn't care about his relatives.

Today he seemed to have lost all his energy and spirit. He stood beside a company's artillery range with his hands on his hips and a gloomy face.

He couldn't bear to look anywhere.

"Well, well, you can't use a rag to wipe the optical equipment. It will scratch the periscope. You have to be careful."

“Don’t use it wrong.”

"Hey, hey, hey, you, is that your way of removing the tracks? Pay attention, aim carefully when you hammer, and be safe."

"Paint the tops carefully and don't miss any. The tanks are our soldiers' comrades-in-arms. Even if we have to say goodbye, we must say goodbye to our comrades-in-arms properly before we part."

"You know?"

"Yes, Captain!!"

There were bursts of loud roars coming from the artillery field.

The soldiers also had tears in their eyes. They avoided being discharged from the army and dodged the transfer to civilian jobs a few days ago, and thought they could stay in the unit for a few more years.

Who would have thought that with just one order, the entire battalion would be wiped out.

Many veterans were assigned to this unit when they joined the army as new recruits. They stayed there for five or six years, or even seven or eight years, and then they were suddenly asked to leave.

Who can bear to do that?

Someone was squatting on the top of the tank with a brush. As he was brushing, tears fell like beads from a broken string.

Someone was wiping the dismantled tank periscope with a dust-free cloth. As he was wiping, he turned around, squatted on the ground, and sobbed with his head in his hands.

There were also some veteran soldiers who, with red eyes and pursed their lips, whispered to the new recruits they had brought in, asking them to work hard and to stand their last shift even if they had to leave.

Demobilization is not retirement, but it is better than retirement.

Because no one in the entire unit could escape.

Yesterday they were competing with each other on the training ground, neither of them wanted to give in, and they were sweating profusely.

Tomorrow, no one knows who will leave first. In any case, in the bustling company, there will always be a first group of people who leave first, silently carrying their backpacks, and they have not retired.

Instead, he rushed to a new unit, but it was basically the same as retiring from the army.

This was the situation that Chen Jun and He Yingtao saw when they first arrived at the company.

This is also the reason why Lao He just said that it is not appropriate to come here to ask for people at this time.

In other brigades, people can just come and pick up people in an impartial manner with a note. Anyway, we will no longer be in the same unit, so sympathy is ok and there is no need to think too much about it.

But their battalion belongs to the same brigade as the unit that is to be withdrawn this time, so they will see each other every day in meetings in the future.

It is really inappropriate to come here to ask for someone.

Chen Jun noticed that the atmosphere in the company was not right, and he sighed to himself.

There is no other way. Disbandment and reorganization are the pains that the army must go through during its development.

As the saying goes, the barracks remain, but the soldiers come and go. The barracks are still standing, the national flag is still flying, but the soldiers stationed here have been replaced one after another.

What is left is just the unregrettable memory of youth.

When Chen Jun arrived just now, he went straight to the tank battalion headquarters and heard from other cadres in the battalion that the battalion commander was in the company.

He rushed over without stopping.

I walked to the entrance of the artillery field and before I had even stood there for a moment, I saw Xiao Jianfeng coming out from the inside.

"Old Xiao!!"

Chen Jun raised his head and shouted.

Hearing the noise, Xiao Jianfeng noticed Chen Jun. He was stunned at first, then walked over and looked him up and down.

"Hey, you son of a bitch, didn't you go to see your father-in-law?"

"what happened?"

"Kicked out by your mother-in-law?"

"What the hell."

Chen Jun cursed speechlessly, then took out a bag of hard chocolate and a handful of candies from his pocket and stuffed them directly into Xiao Jianfeng's hands.

"You can't even say anything nice to me. I'm here to give you wedding candy."

"Damn it, I'm still thinking about you after coming back from Kyoto, you bastard, just looking at the cigarettes and the candy, don't you understand what I mean?"

Xiao Jianfeng was also caught off guard by Chen Jun's move. He looked down at the red hard drink in his hand and the candy in the red wrapper.

Then he looked at Chen Jun with disdain: "You are amazing, Old Chen. In order to get two soldiers from me, you even resorted to this method. It's really hard for you."

"Okay, get me two more packs and I'll give you two armored special pilot sergeants, okay?"

"I'm absolutely honest and fair. You can ask around the hotel. I'm the only one who can offer this price."

"Go away, go away, I'm not thinking about you, I'm here just to hand out wedding candy."

Chen Jun refused righteously, but his feet seemed to be rooted to the ground.

Even though he denied it, he didn't move an inch.

He Yingtao stood by with a sad look on his face, shaking his head and sighing: "Ah, such a good soldier, he was transferred away just like that, alas."

"What a shame."

"I C"

Xiao Jianfeng looked at the two people singing the same tune and angrily scolded: "Alright, alright, stop acting for me. Aren't you tired?"

"Get another pack and let you pick any person you want, okay?"

"Fuck you, your battalion is full of dogs, they just came here because they smelled something."

Hearing Lao Xiao's agreement, Chen Jun quickly took out another bag of hard-core cigarettes from his pocket and handed it over.

At the same time, he said reluctantly: "I really didn't come here to ask for someone. At most, I just came to see you."

"Look at you, you're still so polite, then give these two to me."

As Chen Jun spoke, he took out a list from his pocket and handed it over.

When Lao Xiao first heard the two names, he breathed a sigh of relief, but when he really saw the list, he looked at the densely packed names on it.

His face turned green on the spot.

I really believed your lies, you call these two?
