From the 7th Steel Company to the Synthetic Division

Chapter 230 Oh my gosh! Man Guangzhi is here?

The reception standards of the 703rd Regiment have been fully met, and the entire working group including Chen Jun is very satisfied, so the subsequent coordination work will naturally go smoothly.

The selection process was easier than that of the 701st Regiment, and progressed a bit faster.

The progress of the work was much faster than expected, so Chen Jun made real-time adjustments based on the situation and advanced the base occupancy time by more than a month.

While selecting the personnel, they also notified each company of the specific time for their arrival.

It is tentatively scheduled for June 27th.

The duration is three days in total.

At that time, each regiment will assemble and integrate the non-commissioned officers on the list into regiment units and report to the newly built combined battalion base of the 702nd Regiment on time.

On July 1, the Party’s Founding Day, the combined battalion will hold its founding meeting and officially launch the third phase.

When Chen Jun and his working group were working in the 703rd Regiment for the fourth day, the group army took new action again.

The candidate for battalion commander, the instructor, the chief of staff and several staff officers were airdropped and reported to the regiment together.

Sent to the headquarters of the Seven Birds Regiment along with them were all their resumes, which recorded in detail their information from the time they joined the army to the present.

The core of the three combined battalions were all airborne, so Commander Wang had to receive them in person and study their resumes in detail.

Instructor Ma Tianxiang was transferred from the Z Division, and was promoted from deputy political commissar to instructor.

If this happened in any other battalion, it would definitely be a demotion. Only cadres who made serious mistakes would be treated like this.

This instructor's future path has basically come to an end.

But it’s different in a combined battalion.

Not to mention that the deputy political commissars of other regiments were jealous, even the deputy political commissar of the 702nd Regiment was jealous. If he could be in their place, he would definitely not blink an eye.

However, the reason why the deputy political commissar became an instructor is still envied by so many people.

Mainly because it is the first pilot unit of a combined battalion in the entire army, the potential value it brings is so huge that it is like a thousand-year-old ginseng to one’s future military career.

Super tonic!

As long as you have such a resume, no matter which unit you join in the future, it will be a golden signboard and you will be able to succeed easily.

Secondly, the combined battalion is a deputy regimental-level unit, and the instructor is at the deputy regimental-level.

Ma Tianxiang went to the combined battalion to serve as an instructor. Although his title became instructor, his actual rank was still deputy regimental level.

It is equivalent to a horizontal adjustment, not a downgrade.

If you adjust to the past, you can enjoy a life of great nourishment and don’t have to worry about the future.

This is definitely a huge profit!

The identity of the instructor of the combined battalion is not ordinary, and the chief of staff also has a prominent background.

Although his resume is not impressive and his military rank is only captain, the value of his resume is extraordinary.

Name: Man Guangzhi, gender: male, age: 24...

Born in 1974, joined the army in 1992.

There is nothing special here. It is almost the same as most people who join the army. They all graduate from high school and join the army at the age of 18.

But his resume after joining the army was different from that of most people.

In the year he joined the army, he took the college entrance examination in the army and was successfully admitted to the top university in the military academy -

National Defense University!

And it is also a major in command automation.

After graduating from the National University of Defense Technology with a bachelor's degree in 1996, he was admitted to the graduate school of international strategy at the Academy of Military Science of the People's Liberation Army of China.

With the tough attitude of a top student, he started to pursue a master's degree.

This resume only has two pieces of information, but every word looks particularly solid.

It takes three years to get a master's degree. In the third year, you can choose to continue studying at school or leave school to do an internship.

He has been studying in school for more than a year now, and it will take another two months for him to complete two years of study.

As long as you get a master's degree in another year, and then publish influential papers in related fields, or have made certain academic achievements.

By then, I will definitely be able to join the army as a major and start as a deputy battalion-level cadre.

Then why is it here?
Captain Wang was quite curious.

I specifically opened the recommendation letter that was sent in front of my resume, read the contents, and really found the reason.

It contains not only the leader's recommendation letter, but also some words written by Man Guangzhi himself.

The reason was probably that he learned from the school's military newspaper that a certain unit of our army was piloting a combined battalion, which gave him strong expectations and interest.
Man Guangzhi majored in international strategy and is more sensitive to international cutting-edge tactics.

He knows better than anyone the value of combined forces and how important they are in the future tactical system, so he has always wanted to join a combined force.

It is more valuable and meaningful to form the first pilot combined battalion from scratch.

Make him even more excited!
In order not to miss this precious opportunity, I was fortunate enough to participate in the pilot project of our army's first combined battalion.

Man Guangzhi, who already had excellent academic performance in school, relied on the help of his tutor, the recommendation of the school, and his own letter of self-recommendation.

After great efforts, I finally achieved my wish.

With the approval of the school, I left school two months earlier to enter the pilot combined battalion for internship and participated in the establishment of our army's first combined battalion.

"A graduate student majoring in command automation and international strategy at the National Defense University. He is the first full-time graduate student at the Academy of Military Sciences to serve at the grassroots level. He is a top student with the right major. His path is similar to Chen Jun's. It's interesting, haha."

After reading Man Guangzhi's resume and recommendation letter, Captain Wang couldn't help but show some anticipation.

The words that Captain Wang heard most from Chen Jun were information-based command, international strategic situation, command automation and other words he rarely heard.

After seeing Man Guangzhi's solid resume, Captain Wang couldn't help but compare him with Chen Jun.

and.

Man Guangzhi only had the rank of captain, but he was recommended to serve as the chief of staff of the combined battalion, which was equivalent to serving as a battalion commander with the qualifications of a deputy battalion commander.

This is enough to prove that Man Guangzhi is extraordinary and definitely has real skills.

After all, everyone knows that the position of chief of staff, although not as prestigious as that of battalion commander or political instructor, is not something that anyone can get.

If you don't have an incredible background, then you must have superhuman strength.

Judging from Man Guangzhi's personal resume alone, Captain Wang did not see that he had a powerful background. The only reason he was able to fight his way out of hundreds or thousands of people and seize the position was that he had superhuman strength.

Assuming that Man Guangzhi has strong personal abilities, Chen Jun's talents are also well-known in the army.

When two talented people with outstanding abilities come together, he is really looking forward to what kind of sparks of passion will emerge from their future work.

Both the chief of staff and the instructor had extraordinary backgrounds, and the candidate for battalion commander, Sun Dongping, was even more exaggerated than the two of them.

Sun Dongping, who is only 30 years old this year, is not only an outstanding undergraduate student who graduated from the National University of Defense Technology, but also obtained a master's degree from the National Defense University.

The National Defense University is the real ceiling. There are no undergraduate programs, only master's and doctoral degrees and above.

And only select from military cadres!
Having a master's degree from the National Defense University is already impressive enough, and because of his outstanding performance in school, he was also selected as a key training student and sent abroad for further studies for one year.

It didn’t write down what I studied specifically, but being able to go abroad is already a sure win.

His first job after returning to China was also very dazzling. He was assigned to serve as a battalion commander in an armored division and participated in the construction of my country's first contract tactical base.

When Captain Wang saw this contract tactical base, he was reminded of the news that shocked the world more than a year ago.

That’s probably where Sun Dongping came from!

The value of the contract tactical base itself is extremely high. It is a unit supported by the power of the Central Military Commission. After it is put into operation, it will definitely far exceed the current combined battalion.

However, Sun Dongping ran from the Joint Tactical Base to the 702nd Regiment to compete for the position of battalion commander.

It seems like it's for the sake of, sesame seeds and watermelons.

He must have a plan. Based on his experience, Captain Wang was able to make a rough guess.

It takes time to build a contract tactical base, and more than a year has passed, and there has been no movement from the contract tactical base.

It proves that there is a high probability that the contract tactical base cannot be put into use in the short term.

The combined tactics base has not yet started working, but the first combined battalion in the army, which also focuses on combined tactics, has started working at the 702nd Regiment.

This means that the contract tactics of the 702nd Regiment are already ahead of the contract tactics base.

Sun Dongping was transferred here deliberately, most likely to grab the benefits of the first batch of contract tactical units and grab a position here first.

After the contract tactical base is activated, it will have no impact at all to transfer it back.

Even because of the experience of building a combined battalion, when we return to the contract tactical base, we will be able to have better development and prospects.

Sun Dongping did not even waste the transition time, and most likely wanted to use the combined battalion as a springboard.

This shows how huge his ambition is.

Thinking of this...

Captain Wang couldn't help but frown!

The combined battalion is the result of Chen Jun's hard work. He must become the core leader of the combined battalion so that he can give full play to his talents.

Captain Wang also has enough confidence in Chen Jun's abilities. He believes that Chen Jun will be responsible for everything and can lead the combined battalion.

But once the battalion commander, as the top leader, has ambitions and strong personal abilities, he will definitely fight for more say.

Only in this way can the battalion commander become the shining point after the acceptance of the combined battalion.

Captain Wang didn't even need to use his brain to imagine that with such a battalion commander, Chen Jun would definitely be restricted in the combined battalion.

Once the combined battalion is out of the control of the established army, it is unclear whether it will be able to grow.

Captain Wang really has no idea.

I have absolutely no confidence in Sun Dongping.

"I hope I'm overthinking it."

Things have just begun now, and Captain Wang is not sure what kind of person Sun Dongping is. He can only think positively.

I hope Sun Dongping is a person with a broad perspective.

There happened to be a reception at noon, and we also had a meeting together in the afternoon.

Captain Wang took advantage of these opportunities to secretly observe the three candidates for battalion commander, the political instructor, and the chief of staff.

Instructor Ma Tianxiang was quite well-behaved, and Captain Wang didn't see anything special about him.

Political cadres are all the same!
Chief of Staff Man Guangzhi looks very young. He always has a smile on his fair and clean face and has an academic and bookish air about him.

The actual age is not that great.

He is 24 years old, the same age as Chen Jun, but looks only 20 years old.

Without the experience in the grassroots companies, one will indeed look younger, but now that he has come to the combined battalion, he will soon become an old man.

If you do outdoor training on this Loess Plateau, it won’t take long for your skin to become tanned.

The candidate for battalion commander, Sun Dongping, is not tall, about 1.7 meters, and is very thin. His personality is exactly the opposite of Man Guangzhi.

There was very little expression on his face, and he kept a stern face throughout.

He is the kind of person who never smiles!
Even the smile on his face when he came to the office to report to the team leader was so short and forced that it looked like a fake smile.

This kind of person rarely shows emotions on his face, and it is difficult to figure out what he is thinking.

And this kind of person is the most difficult to deal with!
Captain Wang was already in a bad mood, and after seeing that Sun Dongping was very cunning and hard to figure out, he became even more nervous.

Fortunately, Sun Dongping is still just a candidate, and it is still uncertain whether he can become the battalion commander.

Captain Wang could only hope in his heart that Second Battalion Commander Li Fuguo would come to his senses and defeat Sun Dongping in the election.

With Li Fuguo as the commander of the combined battalion, there will be no such potential hidden dangers in the future.

After the group finished their reception banquet at noon, the regiment commander called everyone to the conference room for a meeting, where he introduced the 702nd Regiment and the current situation of the combined battalion.

Instructor Ma Tianxiang and chief of staff Man Guangzhi learned that working groups had already gone to other regiments to select people, and Chen Jun had managed to persuade the heads of each regiment.

It is expected to start moving in by the end of this month.

Both of them were very satisfied with the progress, and the instructor even praised Chen Jun for his strong ability to do things.

Man Guangzhi also expressed his admiration for Chen Jun, saying directly that Chen Jun had done what he could not do and that he was looking forward to working with Chen Jun.

Only Sun Dongping did not mention Chen Jun, and even deliberately avoided the topic.

After the meeting.

Sun Dongping took the initiative to ask Captain Wang that he wanted to visit the new base of the combined battalion to make preparations in advance for future work.

Although he is still just a candidate, he acts like a battalion commander.

Captain Wang, who had always thought that he would do bad things, was a little displeased when he saw his strong character and self-righteousness.

but.

Thinking that he was a battalion commander airdropped from the army group and had studied abroad, it was normal for him to be a bit arrogant, so I didn't think too much about it.

However, he said he had official duties to attend to, so he arranged for his chief of staff to take them on the tour.

When the group arrived at the new base of the combined battalion, every camp looked empty because the personnel had not yet officially moved in.

Only the relevant logistics personnel were busy moving various living and office equipment in.

There are also sentries sent from the 7th Steel Company, who are responsible for guarding the barracks supplies of each company and maintaining hygiene inside the barracks.

The neighboring layout and structure of each company in the base were all designed by Chen Jun himself.

Therefore it is completely different from other troops.

It was the first time for Ma Tianxiang, Man Guangzhi and several staff officers to see a camp with this layout, and everyone's eyes were full of curiosity.

We had great expectations and interest in visiting each company's camp.

When the chief of staff introduced the camp planning, layout design, etc. of each company, and even every training ground, they were all designed by Chen Jun.

Man Guangzhi, who was already curious about Chen Jun, became even more fascinated by Chen Jun.

Man Guangzhi knew that Chen Jun was about the same age as him. He could only think about it in his mind in college, but Chen Jun was already working hard to achieve results.

This really amazed Man Guangzhi!

The instructor also kept praising him, wondering how Chen Jun could have come up with this brand-new system of organization of the combined battalion all by himself.

Only Sun Dongping remained silent throughout the whole process, but his brows were furrowed.

Because Sun Dongping always has a serious face when he appears and is the type of person who doesn't talk much, everyone is used to it and doesn't think too much about it.

Led by the chief of staff, a group of people toured all the repaired bases.

It was still early after the tour, so the chief of staff took the men to a construction site next to the Seventh Steel Company that was working overtime.

I heard that a special operations platoon camp was being set up here, and the entire special operations platoon was composed of officers, all of whom were recruited by Chen Jun.

Man Guangzhi was really convinced this time!
He simply couldn't imagine how a captain, who had left the military academy only two years earlier than him, could accomplish so many incredible things.

If he were to do it, he wouldn't be able to do any of them.

In other words, he was completely impressed by Chen Jun's ability. Before he even met Chen Jun in person, Man Guangzhi had already made up his mind -

That is, you must learn well from Chen Jun and never waste such a good opportunity.
