Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

The businessman who donated the money was named Sun Youcai. The reason he donated so generously was mainly because he had connections with the military.

Many years ago, while he was working hard to start his business, his home was suddenly flooded, and his mother was trapped inside, her life hanging in the balance.

Fortunately, the flood relief troops arrived in time and rescued his mother.

The house was washed away shortly after they were rescued.

From then on.

Sun Youcai was grateful to the People's Liberation Army for saving his mother and had been trying to find ways to repay the army.

Gui Pingyuan somehow learned that Sun Youcai had this need, and accurately located Sun Youcai, which led to this play.

Having easily secured 500,000 yuan in funding, Gui Pingyuan was so proud that his nose practically twitched in the air.

Wu Yiwen was also very happy, as the 500,000 yuan funding was enough to close the gap with Jackie Chan.

But Gui Pingwei's ambitions don't stop there.

Gui Pingyuan, who wanted to secure more funding and completely overshadow Jackie Chan's performance, came up with another idea for Wu Yiwen to expand the victory.

Wu Yiwen, in his capacity as deputy commander of the First Division, was instructed to express his gratitude to Sun Youcai for the donation.

They booked the best private room in the city and invited Wu Youcai and other patriotic businessmen who supported the military to sit together for a meal and a chat.

Sun Youcai, who was the guest of honor at the beginning of the banquet, raised his glass and said, "It is an honor for me, Sun, to have the opportunity to meet Boss Wu today."

"Oh, I should be the one feeling honored. The funding you sponsored has solved a huge problem for me. I am very grateful," Wu Yiwen said politely.

"We're also planning a donation ceremony, inviting people from TV stations and newspapers to give it a good publicity. Mr. Sun, you'll have to say something then."

Gui Pingyuan promoted Sun Youcai to a high position, and then deliberately tricked the others by saying, "This is a rare opportunity. If any of you bosses have similar ideas, I will prepare a detailed list of donations."

With television reporters present, let's publicize the righteous deeds of these business owners and show everyone what a modern businessman should emulate.

The dozen or so restaurant owners who came to eat there, regardless of whether they had any intention of donating money.

After Gui Pingyuan's explanation, and with the atmosphere already set, even those who didn't want to donate were forced to join in.

They had no choice but to step forward and express their views, emphasizing the need to support the development of the national military.

Those with money should donate.

Ten thousand or twenty thousand is not too little, one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand is not too much.

Those with supplies should donate them.

From large items like computers, refrigerators, and washing machines, to small items like tables, chairs, and other household goods.

The scene suddenly became incredibly lively.

When Gui Pingyuan saw how enthusiastic the bosses were, and thought about the scene of the equipment and supplies they donated being transported to the division headquarters and unloaded in a grand manner, his heart became particularly warm.

He will be credited with great merit, and Gui Pingyuan will be the one to deserve the most credit.

Wu Yiwen was secretly delighted, but being a mature and composed man, he kept his emotions hidden.

He pretended not to care about the donations and started chatting with Boss Sun about everyday things.

"Mr. Sun, is everything alright at home?" Wu Yiwen asked politely.

"Great, everything is excellent," said Boss Sun.

"I heard that your eldest son is already in college. Where is he studying?" Wu Yiwen asked.

"I sent him to Paris, France, hoping he would learn something there and come back to serve his country," Boss Sun said earnestly.

"Oh my, as expected of Boss Sun! I have to toast you for your thoughtfulness..."

Wu Yiwen and Sun Youcai were subtly engrossed in their conversation, while Gui Pingyuan, seeing that the atmosphere was almost perfect, gave a wink to his deputy.

About two minutes after his counterattack, the deputy returned carrying a small red silk plaque.

Ten large characters were written on it:

Businessmen should not forget to support the military.

Getting rich is linked to national defense.

Wu Yiwen, with his keen eyes and ears, saw his deputy enter carrying the plaque. He immediately stood up and introduced it, saying, "Here you are, Boss Sun. This is a small token of our appreciation. We specially ordered it for you as an expedited service. What do you think?"

"While doing business, I never forget to support the military; while getting rich, I keep national defense in mind. I am unworthy of such praise, unworthy of such praise," Boss Sun said humbly.

"Okay, very good."

"What excellent writing!"

"Boss Sun is absolutely worthy."

The other businessmen were very supportive and stood up to applaud and congratulate them.

Upon seeing the gleaming bronze plaque, the merchants couldn't help but feel envious, and their enthusiasm for donating money and goods reached its peak at that moment.

But just then...

Mr. Sun's phone suddenly rang. He made an excuse that it was his wife calling and ran out, deliberately hiding in an empty stairwell.

The very first sentence he uttered after answering the phone revealed the true nature of this Mr. Sun.

"Boss, the fish has taken the bait."

Boss Sun's words were quite telling, enough to prove that he was deliberately setting a trap, and the story of his mother being saved and expressing gratitude was probably a staged plot.

"Very good, keep following up, but don't alert them. Play the long game and catch the big fish," came the reply from the other end of the phone.

"Don't worry, boss, I guarantee you'll be satisfied with the result."

After hanging up the phone to compose himself, Boss Sun forced a fake smile and returned to the private room.

Neither Wu Yiwen nor Gui Pingyuan noticed anything amiss. Upon seeing Boss Sun enter, they immediately greeted him and pulled him to sit at the table, where they began drinking and toasting.

Flattery and polite words flowed back and forth, creating quite a lively atmosphere.

The First Division was the first synthetic division in the capital, destined to become the eye of the storm, attracting the attention of all sorts of evil spirits.

If you're not careful, something terrible could happen.

Wu Yiwen and Gui Pingyuan had too many personal ideas and were always thinking about their own achievements. They completely forgot about the dangers of society and unknowingly let the wolf into their house.

Problems are bound to arise; the only difference is the magnitude of the trouble.

As one of the two main candidates at the time, Takashiro has indeed been making a lot of appearances lately, as if he is determined to prove something.

I went to the resettlement office several times, but the results were not ideal.

Linzhou City needs to place too many cadres, but Linzhou is not a first- or second-tier city, and there are not enough positions available.

For someone like Gao Cheng, who was transferred to civilian work at the deputy division commander level, the minimum requirement was to be the second-in-command of each department.

These levels of positions are even fewer and more difficult to fill.

Gao Cheng heard firsthand from the staff of the resettlement office that it would take at least a year to resettle demobilized soldiers at the deputy division level.

There's no guarantee they can be placed.

How could Gao Cheng, who was proud and restless, accept such an outcome?

When one road was blocked, he tried another.

I've decided to become self-employed!

In other words, they receive a resettlement fee that is less than what is paid once, and then they can go to their local area to find a job or start a business without bothering the organization with its arrangements.

So Gao Cheng wrote a stack of resumes and went to the city's talent exchange center.

After going around in circles, the result made him feel even worse.

The combat and command skills learned in the military are completely useless in society, especially in peaceful societies, where all skills and techniques are essentially worthless.

In addition, Takashiro is already thirty-nine years old, making him completely uncompetitive compared to recent graduates.

The outcome of the job application was obvious.

All of Gao Cheng's submitted resumes were returned.

This gave him a lot of self-confidence, making him believe that he could live comfortably wherever he went and that no difficulty could defeat him.

After being brutally beaten down by society, I finally gained the most profound understanding.

That means the military and society are disconnected, especially for someone like him who grew up in the military and has spent his whole life dealing with the military.

Entering society is really difficult.

It’s harder than climbing to the sky!

At this moment, he hesitated for the second time about his initial idea of ​​changing careers.

The last time there was hesitation was when Jackie Chan mentioned that the military region wouldn't only have the first combined arms division, and as long as Gao Cheng wasn't in such a hurry, there would be plenty of opportunities later.

to be frank.

Takashiro was genuinely moved at that moment.

But he was a person who was too proud to admit his mistakes, and once he said something, it was like spilled water. He had no face to go back and apply for a career change.

He needs a ladder that's slippery enough to get him down from that awkward position.

……

Missile Squadron.

Long Xiaoyun accepted Gao Da's invitation to go to the missile squadron and give them a lesson.

Upon receiving the news, Jackie Chan, as the division commander, immediately drove to the Information Brigade in a seemingly legitimate manner, and picked up Long Xiaoyun to take her to the Missile Brigade, assuming that he was allowed to attend the meeting as a division commander.

At this time, the missile squadron's camp was still under construction, and it was full of construction machinery, just like a construction site.

However, even in such a simple environment, Gao Da specially selected two hundred people from the missile squadron to show his welcome to Long Xiaoyun. They all wore clean and tidy civilian clothes and lined up in two rows on the roadside outside the camp gate.

When Jackie Chan drove up, about a hundred people on each side applauded in unison, creating a spectacular scene.

Gao Da only invited Long Xiaoyun over, and in order to express his little feelings of admiration, he specially arranged such a high-level welcoming ceremony.

Jackie Chan, the division commander, brought Long Xiaoyun with him, which was something he never expected.

But since he was already there, he had no choice but to follow.

As soon as Jackie Chan's car came to a stop at the entrance, Gao Da ran up to the car, saluted, and reported, "Reporting to Acting Commander Cheng, all officers and soldiers of the Mischief Brigade welcome you."

"I just happened to be passing by and came to listen to the lecture. I didn't receive your invitation beforehand. You can talk to Captain Cheng about it."

Jackie Chan's words had a hidden meaning, and he got out of the car.

Gao Da knew what Jackie Chan was talking about, and he felt a little embarrassed, but he had a very high EQ and managed to smooth things over in a few words.

Lectures on information and information technology soon began at the cultural activity center.

At present, like other battalions, the basic construction of the missile battalion's camp has just begun, and the main venues for cultural activities have been formed.

This wasn't Long Xiaoyun's first time giving a lecture; information and information technology are also areas where she excels.

The lecture lasted for more than an hour. Long Xiaoyun spoke vividly and fluently, giving the officers and soldiers of the missile brigade a good lesson.

Understanding what information and digitization are is the most important core principle of the First Division.

Every officer and every soldier must understand this.

"Captain Long, your lecture was absolutely fantastic! Your explanations were so clear and easy to understand, they really enlightened us."

As everyone packed up and left, Gao Da gave Long Xiaoyun extremely high praise.

"No matter how brilliant the lecture is, it's just theoretical and has very limited practical effect."

As Long Xiaoyun walked out, she said, "Our First Division is just getting started in terms of information-based command, and we still have a long way to go."

The most urgent task is to develop a completely new command system, which I named E5W.

It can fully consider and coordinate different troop strengths, firepower, equipment, and branches of service, enabling command to be swift and efficient.

Gundam didn't know much about command systems, and this was the first time he had ever heard of the E5W.

"Well said."

Jackie Chan strongly supported Long Xiaoyun, saying, "That's why I wanted Liang Hang and Fang Yaqiu to attend this class."

I hope you will put more thought into this, especially regarding network access.

All units must focus on how to unify and ensure compatibility of the existing computer systems across different branches of the armed forces; this must be achieved across the entire division.

In order for the new command system to be implemented throughout the division, the division commander must provide unconditional support in order for the new system to be put into use.

Otherwise, each team would have its own ideas and its own difficulties.

Promoting the new system is incredibly difficult.

This is one of the reasons why Long Xiaoyun was so eager for Jackie Chan to become her mentor.

Jackie Chan has a vision that transcends his time. He believes that future warfare and technology will be ahead of their time, and he will definitely give his full support to the advancement of information technology.

This is not.

No sooner had Jackie Chan finished speaking than the first wave of resistance emerged.

"Our brigade's command system was just equipped last year; it's all state-of-the-art equipment. Is it really necessary to upgrade it now?"

Fang Yaqiu had barely finished speaking when Liang Hang from the shipping team joined in.

"Our brigade mainly uses imported models, which are difficult to modify, so it is very difficult to forcefully intervene."

There are so many things to do lately. All the troops need to train and prepare for the military region's inspection. Should I make an exception and temporarily stay out of this system?

I think the battalion and command are quite good. Orders from the division headquarters can be easily obtained via radio or telephone.

Liang Hang's shipping fleet desperately needed a command system, since ships couldn't communicate verbally, and he was also the least willing to develop a new system.

It takes at least one or two months to become familiar with a completely new system.

In addition, the initial system replacement, which involved replacing all imported equipment with domestic equipment, was a major project that would take a long time.

If they don't need to use the new system, the shipping fleet can still play comfortably with the current system.

Liang Hang naturally didn't want to go through so much trouble!

Before Long Xiaoyun came, she had worked in the previous division and tried to update the basic version of the E5W system. The situation back then was exactly the same as now.

The various brigades were very uncooperative, and the new command system, once distributed, just sat gathering dust in the warehouse.

Adding to the fact that the division commander of the previous unit was also a traditional old-fashioned man, he did not support Long Xiaoyun, which ultimately led to the complete failure of the plan.

Seeing that scene from before reappear, to be honest, Long Xiaoyun was a little nervous.

I couldn't help but look at Jackie Chan.

Will it work?

It all comes down to one sentence from Jackie Chan.
