Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Jackie Chan has walked out of piles of corpses, and with his broad shoulders and thick waist, even big kids can be scared to tears with just one look from him.

The captains present had never even killed anyone, so how could they withstand that murderous gaze?

Jackie Chan glanced at it.

Everyone felt a chill run down their backs, a cold sensation shooting up their spines to the top of their heads.

After intimidating the group of captains with his gaze and imposing presence, Jackie Chan's eyes softened instantly, much like a Sichuan opera face-changing act.

He spoke frankly, saying, "But now I am the commander of the First Division, and I must fulfill my duties in this position. I hope that all the battalion commanders can cooperate with my work."

Jackie Chan said that they were discussing the feasibility of developing the E5W system.

The point is to remember this small meeting, held in a rather informal setting, as an opportunity to give these team leaders a warning.

Having already extinguished the previous gains, they thoroughly consolidated their position in the First Division.

Make sure every captain present clearly understands their position and knows who the real leaders are, so they stop causing trouble all the time.

Otherwise, you will bear the consequences!

All the captains realized that Jackie Chan had set up a trap to manipulate them.

Having learned from the previous experience of Jackie Chan's crackdown, Baoerdafu, Liang Hang, and Gao Da naturally dared not cause any more trouble.

It takes two to tango.

Fang Yaqiu, the remaining shipping captain, was left to fend for himself and could only become a good boy.

The artillery captain has always been very responsible and dedicated, and the information captain, Long Xiaoyun, is his number one supporter. Wu Zhe is also Jackie Chan's old subordinate.

The three of them would never go against Jackie Chan; they would only cooperate fully with him.

The tone of the entire discussion was set, and no one jumped out to oppose it as before; everyone actively cooperated.

For example, what problems exist in their own brigade's system, and in what areas do they need the information brigade's assistance, etc.

With the raising of numerous questions and suggestions, the citywide rollout of the E5W system has become inevitable; only the successful development and implementation of the E5W system remains to be seen.

Another core task has become particularly prominent.

That is to recruit Jing Xiaoshu!

After the discussion ended and they left, Jackie Chan and Long Xiaoyun immediately drove to Linzhou City and found Qin Qingrou's internet cafe.

When Jackie Chan and Lung Siu-wan came last time, they changed into casual clothes to appear more approachable.

Although Jing Xiaoshu was startled by the burly Jackie Chan, she was unaware of Jackie Chan's background and thought of him as an ordinary person, so she was not too afraid.

Throughout the conversation, Jing Xiaoshu behaved very naturally.

They even dared to haggle.

Because they were in a hurry to come out this time, and because they needed to formally discuss cooperation with Jing Xiaoshu, Jackie Chan and Long Xiaoyun were both wearing military uniforms.

Military uniforms inherently possess a buff, and Jackie Chan's aura is instantly maximized when he wears one.

It's incredibly majestic and imposing!

Even though Jing Xiaoshu had been abroad and seen the world, he was still just an ordinary person who had read a few more books, and his courage and boldness were very limited.

Upon seeing Jackie Chan in his military uniform, a powerful and imposing aura emanated from him, making him feel instantly inferior.

In addition, he clearly saw the military rank. Jackie Chan, who was about the same age as him, was actually a colonel with the rank of 23 cents. Even a fool would know how awesome that was.

Long Xiaoyun, who was a few years younger than him, was already a lieutenant colonel of 22 cents, and was equally formidable.

Under the combined pressure of this aura and military rank, Jing Xiaoshu, who was a bit arrogant the last time they met, suddenly became extremely nervous this time.

It's like a primary school student being talked to by their homeroom teacher.

Not only was his whole body tense, making him look very restrained and uncomfortable, but his eyes also became evasive, and he didn't dare to look Jackie Chan in the eye at all.

This is exactly the effect Jackie Chan wanted; only by thoroughly intimidating Jing Xiaoshu could he be subdued.

Long Xiaoyun played the "bad cop" role this time. After a brief opening, they got straight to the point: "Jing Xiaoshu, after careful consideration, we are now officially informing you that we have decided to specially recruit you into the army. You will become a glorious member of the People's Army."

The quota for special recruitment has not yet been announced, but in order to prevent the talent from being snatched away by others, Jackie Chan can only make special arrangements and get the person into the army first.

Once Minister Wang manages to secure a spot, the formal procedures can be completed later.

"Huh? I'm joining the army?"

Jing Xiaoshu had never thought about this matter before, and now that it had happened to him, he was completely bewildered.

"You're a genius in your field; you shouldn't be working as a network administrator in an internet cafe. Your future should lie in a place where you can best utilize your expertise."

Long Xiaoyun first praised Jing Xiaoshu, and after praising her, she promised her a sweet reward: "As long as you agree to join, we will arrange a studio for you and assign you a few assistants."

We'll provide you with the best computers and equipment so you can fully unleash your talents and showcase your abilities to the fullest.

As for living conditions, we won't treat you poorly. We'll provide you with a unit of housing for a regimental-level officer, as well as the benefits and salary of a regimental-level officer.

As the saying goes...

Every man dreams of carrying a gun, and Jing Xiaoshu was no exception.

Hearing that he could enjoy the treatment of a regimental-level cadre and carry the rank of two bars and stars on his shoulders, he suddenly became a senior cadre in the army.

Jing Xiaoshu was truly smitten!

While he was tempted, he also hesitated, after all, he had been used to being out in the wild for so many years, and he didn't know if he would be able to adapt to the military.

Seeing that Jing Xiaoshu was interested, Long Xiaoyun immediately pressed her advantage, saying, "I'll take you to see our place tomorrow. I guarantee you'll like it."

Besides, we've come to see you time and time again, and our commanders have all come in person, which is enough to show our sincerity.

Long Xiaoyun focused her efforts on emotional appeal, gradually breaking down Jing Xiaoshu's defenses.

Jackie Chan seized on his needs, stating directly, "We have prepared the 100,000 yuan you need, either a check or cash, it's up to you."

"Really?"

Jing Xiaoshu's eyes lit up.

Jackie Chan didn't speak, but simply nodded; his actions spoke louder than words.

"I think your conditions are indeed quite good, but I still want to think about it carefully. It's too sudden, and I'm a little caught off guard."

As expected of someone who has traveled abroad and seen the world, Jing Xiaoshu was able to maintain a shred of rationality even under such temptation.

Don't make decisions impulsively!

"The decision is yours. We will never force anyone. Once you have made your decision, let us know as soon as possible, and I will send a car to pick you up. I hope we can have the opportunity to cooperate," Jackie Chan said, extending his hand.

"I hope so."

Looking at Jackie Chan's enormous hand, Jing Xiaoshu imagined a scene where he could crush it, and fearfully withdrew her outstretched hand.

"goodbye."

Jackie Chan smiled and didn't press the issue. He greeted Qin Qingrou and said, "Old classmate, I've been so busy lately that I haven't had a chance to properly thank you for making the connection. Once things are settled, I'll definitely treat you to a meal."

"You've become a teacher at such a young age; 'young and promising' doesn't even begin to describe it. It's hard not to be busy, but you absolutely have to treat me to this meal, haha."

Qin Qingrou is quite understanding, and she has a beautiful smile.

"Okay, it's settled then."

Jackie Chan readily agreed and stood up to greet Long Xiaoyun, saying, "Let's go."

"goodbye."

Long Xiaoyun said goodbye and left with Jackie Chan.

After the two came out of the network card, on the way back to the division headquarters by car, Long Xiaoyun said worriedly, "If we want the E5W system to be developed on schedule, Jing Xiaoshu must be involved, but he did not agree directly."

I'm worried that if this drags on, someone else might poach him. Should we organize a few people and bring him to the army first?

"you mean……"

Jackie Chan understood what Long Xiaoyun meant and was genuinely impressed by her courage.

"We're not doing anything to harm him; on the contrary, we're helping him find a suitable job. Strictly speaking, I'm helping him make a choice," Long Xiaoyun said seriously.

"Your idea is indeed a bit impolite, but upon closer examination, I'm afraid there's no better way," Jackie Chan said with a wicked grin.

"I can find a way to secure the person first, but the necessary procedures must be handled properly," Long Xiaoyun said earnestly.

"I'm already working on securing special recruitment slots, and Political Commissar Lu is also communicating with higher authorities. There shouldn't be any major problems. As for the political vetting, I've already notified the Political Department, and we haven't submitted a report yet, so there shouldn't be any issues. It's just a matter of going through the motions."

After Jackie Chan finished speaking, he added, "The biggest problem now is Jing Xiaoshu. As long as he doesn't agree, this matter is very likely to run into trouble."

Therefore, as you said, it is indeed very necessary to act first and report later.

However, we must do this in secrecy, we absolutely cannot be too arrogant, and we cannot let any third party know. Furthermore, our attitude must be good; we must be very polite.

Jackie Chan is good at observing micro-expressions. He saw Jing Xiaoshu's longing and yearning for the military in his eyes, which is why he supported Long Xiaoyun's "reckless behavior".

"Don't worry, keeping a mistress is one of my strengths," Long Xiaoyun said confidently.

"That's really one of your strengths, haha."

The thought of the large group of female soldiers in the Information Brigade, who were all kept as mistresses, made Jackie Chan laugh in stark contrast to their image.

Long Xiaoyun and Jackie Chan were truly on the same wavelength; she instantly understood what Jackie Chan meant and laughed along with him.

the next day.

In the morning, Long Xiaoyun called over the deputy battalion commander Qu Ying, took out Jing Xiaoshu's photo and placed it on the table, saying with a smile, "Later, find a few people, disguise them, don't use military vehicles, find a secluded place to bring him back."

"Who is this person? Why is it so complicated?" Qu Ying asked curiously, holding up the photo.

"A computer genius, the person our team urgently needs right now, without exception. Whether the E5W system can be developed ahead of schedule depends on him," Long Xiaoyun said.

"Is he that good?" Qu Ying asked in surprise.

"He's a PhD from MIT, specializing in software development. The odds of finding someone like that are even lower than winning the lottery. Isn't that amazing?" Long Xiaoyun joked.

"That's great! What should I do?" Qu Ying asked, intrigued.

"I'll be holding a welcome ceremony for him at the brigade at 2 p.m. this afternoon," Long Xiaoyun said with a smile.

"clear."

Qu Ying immediately understood and walked out with a smile.

At 1:30 p.m., Jing Xiaoshu came out of his dimly lit rented room, intending to find a place to eat something before going to work at the internet cafe.

Because Jing Xiaoshu is currently very short of money, the rental house she found is in a very remote location, with almost no pedestrians in the alley.

As soon as Jing Xiaoshu came downstairs, a Jinbei van pulled up in front of him and blocked his way. Several camouflage soldiers jumped out of the side door.

Without saying a word, they rushed forward and surrounded Jing Xiaoshu.

Jing Xiaoshu had never seen anything like this before, and was so frightened that she dared not move.

Qu Ying, who was leading the group, compared the photo with the picture and found that it was indeed Jing Xiaoshu. She waved her hand and ordered in a sweet voice, "It's him. Get him in the car and take him away."

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Jing Xiaoshu was completely bewildered and wanted to ask for clarification, but her head was forced down and she was shoved into the car.

When she got on the bus and saw it full of soldiers, Jing Xiaoshu sat there like a primary school student, too afraid to move, feeling like a convict.

Qu Ying hadn't forgotten Long Xiaoyun's instructions, and with a grin, she grabbed Jing Xiaoshu's hand.

He forcibly grabbed Jing Xiaoshu's hand, shook it, and said, "Comrade Jing Xiaoshu, welcome to your honorable enlistment. Congratulations on becoming a glorious member of the People's Liberation Army."

"Enlistment?? What are you guys doing? I thought I was going to jail this time."

Jing Xiaoshu finally realized what was going on. But the thought of being forcibly dragged onto the bus to enlist before she had even agreed made her a little unhappy.

But thinking about the impact he would have on the army, and being afraid of the truck full of soldiers, he hesitated.

When a scholar encounters a soldier, reason is useless.

Jing Xiaoshu understands this proverb!

Jing Xiaoshu could only accept reality in silence, and would explain things clearly after meeting the two leaders who had come yesterday.

"Put these clothes on. From today onwards, you are a young comrade."

Qu Ying stuffed a set of clothes into Jing Xiaoshu's arms, her eyes filled with undisguised envy as she spoke.

She has been in the army for over ten years and is only a captain, while Jing Xiaoshu just joined the army and started as a second lieutenant, one rank higher than her.

Not just Qu Ying, anyone would be envious.

The power of knowledge to change a person's destiny was vividly demonstrated at this moment.

"Should we change here?" Jing Xiaoshu asked hesitantly.

"What? Is there something you're ashamed of? Or are you not wearing underwear?" Qu Ying was optimistic and cheerful, and spoke rather wildly.

Jing Xiaoshu was speechless after being confronted, and could only change her clothes in the cramped car like a submissive girl.

As Jing Xiaoshu changed into his major's uniform, the Jinbei van sped along, quickly arriving at the rear of the division headquarters, where the information brigade was located.

"We've arrived, get off the bus."

Qu Ying got out of the car first and opened the door, inviting Jing Xiaoshu in a crisp voice.

Jing Xiaoshu nervously touched her collar and buttons. When she got out of the car and saw the scene in front of her, she became even more nervous.

He stood there for a long time without moving, seemingly unsure whether to step out with his left or right foot first.
