From the 7th Steel Company to the Synthetic Division

Chapter 222: The deputy company commander that even the army group has to give face to!

Chen Jun returned with a full formation, and the helicopter he was riding in landed directly on the 702 playground, causing exclamations from the entire regiment.

I thought some big leader was coming!

Captain Wang, who had received the notice in advance and had been waiting anxiously, gave Chen Jun face and personally ran to the playground to greet him.

When they meet, they would express concern and ask about each other's well-being, whether they had been bullied in Team A, etc.

It's like a treasure in the palm of your hand, you're afraid it might get bumped or scratched.

It was already the end of May and summer was about to begin. The weather was gradually clearing up, and the entire playground was golden under the sunlight.

It looked like they were welcoming Chen Jun home.

Captain Wang is a straightforward and emotional man. After the greetings, he went straight to the point.

Chen Jun was brought to the regiment's high-level meeting room, and a meeting was convened with all members of the Party Committee, including the political commissar, chief of staff, and deputy regiment commander.

The main content of the discussion was how to carry out the second phase of the work of the combined battalion based on the superior documents.

The core of the second stage is "people"!
As the superior unit of the combined battalion, the 702nd Regiment needs to fully cooperate with the deployment and placement of personnel, and there must not be any mistakes.

It sounds very simple, but it is actually very complicated.

Because the personnel composition of the combined battalion is not only drawn from its own regiment, but comes from three directions, so efforts need to be made from three directions.

The first and easiest issue to resolve is “family members”.

Companies such as the 7th Steel Company, the Tank Company, the Electronic Countermeasures Company, etc., which were incorporated as a whole, are all companies of the 702nd Regiment, and they are easy to talk to because they are family members.

With just a word from Captain Wang, these companies will be able to move into the new base quickly.

Secondly, it is not very difficult to deal with. On the surface, you just need to wait to be received, but in fact, it is a "paratrooper" that requires special attention.

For example, the battalion commander, political instructor, deputy battalion commander and a group of staff of a combined battalion.

Except for a very small number of positions, decisions can be made by the regiment. Most of the positions are too "sweet" and will inevitably be "paratroopers".

Although the personalities, tempers, and abilities of these parachuted battalion leaders are all unknown, their backgrounds are definitely extraordinary.

How to properly arrange these "talented people" so that they can quickly integrate into the troops.

This is the most troublesome thing!
To give the simplest example...

The companies that can be transferred to the combined battalion are all commanded by powerful and elite soldiers. It is not easy to become their boss.

If you don't show enough strength to control the people below, you can never expect the company commanders below to cooperate with your work wholeheartedly.

This is the characteristic of the army!

Only the strong can convince others!
If they don't have the strength to conquer them, even these company commanders will think that the battalion commanders are messing around, causing them to cooperate on the surface but play all kinds of tricks in secret.

The third phase of training will become extremely difficult to carry out.

Perhaps the superiors also realized that there would be inevitable conflict between the local company officers and the airborne battalion leadership team.

In order to be the first battalion commander of the combined battalion, he must be able to gain absolute conviction among the officers and soldiers below him, avoid subsequent troubles of this kind, and not cause internal conflicts.

The group army made special adjustments, and the documents issued clearly instructed:

Because the combined battalion is a strengthened battalion, the battalion commander will be promoted to deputy regimental level, the deputy battalion commander to the battalion level, and so on for other leadership teams.

That is to say...

As long as you can become the battalion commander of a combined battalion, you will be promoted to a higher level immediately.

Therefore, the appointment of the battalion commander of the pilot combined battalion will adopt a competitive job mechanism, which means more reasonable local and airborne competition.

The group army will send a battalion-level officer to compete with a battalion commander selected from within the 702nd Regiment.

At that time, it may be done in the form of sandbox simulation, or it may be done by leading the team to compete.

It has not been decided yet, and we will choose based on the situation.

Let the local battalion commander of the 702nd Regiment and the airborne battalion commander of the army group have a contest of strength, and the winner will become the battalion commander of the combined battalion.

The military chief battalion commander is appointed through competition, which is equivalent to the group army giving in to the 702nd Regiment.

Mainly to give face to Chen Jun!

After all, the core of the combined battalion is Chen Jun, and Chen Jun is from the 702nd Regiment. The group army did not force a battalion commander to be appointed, which was entirely to give face to Chen Jun.

The remaining ones are the deputy battalion commander, political instructor, deputy political instructor, and chief of staff.

These few will no longer compete for the job.

At that time, all of them will be dispatched by the military district leaders and received and settled by the 702nd Regiment so that they can be smoothly integrated into the combined battalion.

The remaining staff officers have not yet been determined and will be arranged based on actual conditions.

The regiment can recommend, and the division headquarters can also arrange it.

If there is really no suitable staff officer, we can report to the army group and the military district will find a way to airdrop another staff officer.

A large number of staff officers are needed, and all army and division units have the opportunity to participate, so the competition is relatively not that fierce.

(PS: Some readers said that the group army and military region were written randomly, and criticized the author for not knowing how to write randomly. The group army is the group army, and the military region is the military region.

I would like to explain here that this is not random writing.

The location of the army group headquarters is called a military region, and the official standard name is the second-level military region.

There are seven major military regions under the jurisdiction of the military, which are now the five major war zones. There are many names, including first-level military regions and major military regions.)
In order to improve the leadership team of the combined battalion, the military district also wants to allow all parties to have a certain degree of "participation" so that everyone can get a piece of the pie.

The arrangements for the leadership team in this regard can truly be said to be painstaking.

but.

Although selecting the leadership team is difficult, it is nothing compared to the arrival of the final wave of personnel.

This group of people needs to go to all the regiments in the division and select non-commissioned officers to join the combined battalion.

The full non-commissioned officer battalion has passed the approval of the group army. The combined battalion now needs a large number of non-commissioned officers to join, whether in combat or logistics units.

Although the army group has issued a document, all T divisions must cooperate in forming a combined battalion.

The overall average.

Each company had to provide three to five non-commissioned officers.

But Chen Jun still had the same worry as before. Each regiment treasured its best soldiers and was reluctant to give up their outstanding non-commissioned officers.

Finally, in order to cope with the orders between the groups, some odd and odd things were brought out to make up the numbers.

That will have an extremely adverse impact on the combat effectiveness of the combined battalion, or even more seriously, lead to the failure of the pilot project.

Don't think that Chen Jun is taking it too seriously or making a big deal out of nothing.

From Tielu of Battalion A to Captain Wang and Gao Cheng of the 702nd Regiment, the degree to which they cherish their soldiers is the most vivid evidence.

How to get the commanders of other regiments in the T Division to cooperate and transfer outstanding non-commissioned officers here.

Captain Wang has been in distress.

Therefore, when talking about this matter, Captain Wang's brows were knitted into a "川" shape, and he emphasized that they must find a way to chew this hard bone. As a result, after Captain Wang finished speaking, no one in the audience said a word.

Because they have all been in the army for half their lives, they know very well that no matter which regiment the military and political leaders are in, they treat the soldiers under their command the same way.

That is, they wish they could kick out all the useless soldiers, and they wish they could have all the good and elite soldiers as their own.

Cooperate with the formation of the combined battalion and obey orders, and transfer all the best NCO backbones to the 702nd Regiment. Without the best soldiers, the combat effectiveness will inevitably decline.

If the results of the annual performance evaluation are terrible, it would be like cutting off the flesh of the team leader.

Not to mention that the current military reform is a drastic measure, and the poor troops may be wiped out in one fell swoop. Everyone is on high alert and dares not slack off at all.

There is competition between groups.

Which regiment commander would be such a "living Bodhisattva" who is willing to cut off his own flesh and stick it on the 702nd Regiment, making the 702nd extremely powerful, and then take off his clothes and go home.

The squad leaders of the regiment party committee and other leaders present here couldn't figure it out no matter how hard they tried.

Which group would do such a stupid thing!!
So they simply couldn't think of a way to cut off the meat from other team leaders, and they could only shut up and choose silence.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the meeting hall was not right, the political commissar even stood up to encourage everyone.

Just speak freely and don't worry.

You won’t be criticized even if you say something wrong!
However, the political commissars were given placebos, and everyone was still staring at each other, with no one speaking out.

It’s not that everyone doesn’t want to speak out, it’s just that they don’t know where to start.

Seeing that no one stood up at the critical moment and everyone became silent when faced with difficulties, Captain Wang was so angry that his face turned blue, but he had nothing to say.

It was because he, the head of the group and the top leader, was also completely in the dark.

I don’t know where to start!

Fortunately, as the chief of staff of a regiment's general military advisor, his professional attributes give him a pair of eyes that are more discerning and better at discovering "beauty".

He found that when everyone was under great pressure and their expressions became tense.

Because he was not a member of the League Party Committee, even with the special invitation of League Leader Wang, he was not qualified to sit in the front row and could only sit in the back row. Chen Jun remained calm from beginning to end and even had a smile on his face.

"How could you forget about him? This guy is very smart. He can even poach members of Team A. If he poaches members of other regiments, wouldn't that be a piece of cake?"

Chief of Staff Yang was secretly delighted and felt that he was saved. He immediately said, "Comrade Chen Jun, you created the combined battalion plan yourself. I believe you know better than us what kind of talents we need.

Moreover, your ability to get things done is obvious to all and is recognized by everyone.

So I think that perhaps only you can solve this difficult problem at the moment, and I also think that you definitely have the ability to do so.”

There is really nothing wrong with Chief of Staff Yang's praise and flattery.

The regiment's Party Committee, which had been scowling at first, suddenly became enlightened after hearing what Staff Officer Yang said, and they all looked at Chen Jun with expectation.

Seeing that the people in the regiment are unreliable, Captain Wang can only hope that Chen Jun can take the lead.

He also expressed his opinion in public: "Deputy Captain Chen, since everyone trusts you so much, then you should stand up and say a few words. What do you think is the most appropriate way to deal with this?"

"Dear leaders."

As someone who has seen big scenes, Chen Jun has no idea what stage fright is.

He stood up calmly and said, "We are all familiar with the phrase 'love soldiers like sons'. Every outstanding top soldier will be treasured by every unit.

If you want to poach them unconditionally, it will be a huge loss for them and it is definitely not that easy.

But as long as we change the concept, assuming that we turn unconditional into conditional, we can turn huge losses into huge gains.

Do you think that by that time, other groups will still refuse?"

As soon as Chen Jun finished speaking, Deputy Head Li immediately responded: "Of course not. Only a fool would refuse such a huge benefit."

"correct."

The deputy political commissar also echoed and said: "As the saying goes, giving a sweet date after a slap can make people turn off their tempers. If you give me a cart of sweet dates.

Then I'll be frank, even if my face gets swollen, I'll still thank you."

"Hahaha."

The contrast made by the deputy political commissar was very vivid, and it made everyone laugh.

The originally tense and depressing atmosphere suddenly became relaxed with this smile. Everyone looked at Chen Jun as if they saw light in the darkness.

The political commissar couldn't wait to ask, "How can we change from unconditional to conditional? How can we change from huge losses to huge gains? Can you explain it in detail?"

"Yes, Commissar."

In front of the group of senior leaders of the regiment, Chen Jun did not deliberately keep people in suspense.

Then he talked about his ideas and plans, and how to get the leaders of each regiment into the routine, so that they would voluntarily cooperate and send out the best soldiers.

He explained everything in detail, without missing a word.

After hearing Chen Jun's plan, all the League Party Committee cadres present were amazed and impressed by Chen Jun's great wisdom.

They didn't expect that the difficult problem that had so troubled them all would become so easy for Chen Jun.

The reason why I am so sure is because...

Chen Jun’s method is amazing!!
Because of Chen Jun's great display of wisdom this time, Chen Jun's reputation and status in the 702nd Regiment once again reached a new height.

Even Chief of Staff Yang joked on the spot that Chen Jun was definitely qualified to be the commander of a combined battalion.

Everyone agreed in their hearts after hearing this and also made a few jokes in response.

Captain Wang even said something more exaggerated, saying that Chen Jun would be underemployed even to be the commander of a combined battalion, and if he were to take his position as the regiment commander, he would definitely be more qualified than Wang Qingrui.

Everyone burst into laughter again upon hearing this, and the atmosphere became even more lively and joyful.

After all, the problem has been solved and I am naturally happy without the pressure.

However, everyone just talked about it, which was equivalent to complimenting the genius Chen Jun and expressing their appreciation for Chen Jun.

It is impossible to give the position of battalion commander nominated by the regiment to Chen Jun.

It’s not that they don’t want to.

But they can't do it.

No rules, no standards.

The army has its own rules and regulations. Outstanding talents can indeed receive special treatment, but this special treatment also requires caution.

No matter how outstanding a deputy company commander is, it is impossible for him to jump directly to the deputy regimental level.

Chen Jun also knew that this was impossible. The organizational level of the combined battalion was too high. Even Gao Cheng could not become the commander of the combined battalion even with his special privileges.

Even if he could be promoted to deputy commander of a combined battalion, it would probably take some help from his father.

So I didn’t take it to heart.

After all, what Chen Jun pursued in his life was not to become a high-ranking official by relying on contract tactics, but to ensure that the 7th Steel Company would have no regrets from now on.
