"Do you know what it's called to inquire about the leader's itinerary without permission? How did you learn to be so secretive?"

Furthermore, if you have any problems, you can report them to your superiors. If the squad leader can't solve it, the company commander can; if the company commander can't solve it, the battalion commander can. If the battalion commander still can't solve it, he should report to the regimental commander. Even if the regimental commander can't solve it, you can report to the division commander. Think about it, how many ranks have you skipped?

"If the top leader were here, would you simply bypass me as well?"

After being reprimanded, some people were a little scared, but some were still unconvinced. They had already come this far and had already been reprimanded. They wouldn't be satisfied if they hadn't revealed their purpose for coming today.

So, some people, in a moment of anger, couldn't help but say, "We're not reconciled! Someone is deliberately ruining the atmosphere of our forest farm! Not only did they use connections to arrange for cadres to come to our forest farm for training, but that person also has questionable conduct."

The forestry commander was furious upon hearing this: "Who? How dare they openly disregard military discipline?"

Before the forestry commander could say anything more, he was interrupted by Guard Xin, who whispered a few words in the commander's ear, making the commander's aura even worse.

"What's the name of that person you're talking about who has questionable conduct?"

Those people, thinking the commander was going to investigate the matter, wore smug expressions: "It's just learning carpentry..."

He'd barely uttered a few words when the commander threw his water glass away: "What the hell are you talking about! You should be glad I'm old enough not to draw my gun anymore. If it were ten or twenty years earlier, I'd have shot you dead!"

The person who was hit was startled, but was filled with resentment, and his mind was already on the issue of officials protecting each other.

Just then, the regimental commander, political commissar, and battalion commander of the forest farm all ran over.

Seeing the commander's ashen face, their hearts skipped a beat.

Before they could say anything more, the commander said, "The woman you're talking about is named Lin Ying. I arranged for her to come here for training. What, do you think I pulled strings with someone in her family, or do you think I have some kind of shady relationship with her?"

The commander's words turned everyone present, except for Guard Xin, pale.

The commander had fought his way up from the battlefield, and his imposing presence was something these young soldiers who had only recently joined the army couldn't withstand.

Guard Xin, who was standing to the side, said:

"Comrade Lin Ying is the wife of Zhao Qinghuai, the commander of the Third Regiment of the Border Defense Department. She is also the inventor of the table saw and the pedal wheel. She came here with the consent of the three commanders to work with Master Amu to make the dragon bone waterwheel."

She is not the daughter of a cadre, nor is she a woman with questionable conduct.

Furthermore, as far as I know, Comrade Lin Ying hasn't interacted much with anyone since arriving here. She's been diligently building the waterwheel every day, and even her food is all brought by herself; she's never taken advantage of the forest farm in the slightest. What you're saying is going too far.”

After Guard Xin finished speaking, the commander became even more furious: "Come on, tell me, you say that he has problems with his conduct, so where is your evidence?"

No one spoke. The commander laughed in exasperation: "Fine, no one's going to answer, is that it? Zhao Yongzhi!"

The regimental commander immediately stood at attention: "Speak!"

"Investigate this matter thoroughly! Once discovered, punish the perpetrators severely!"

"yes!"

"Furthermore, everyone who caused trouble today has received a disciplinary warning! Those with serious offenses should be dismissed; the military doesn't need such black sheep. You submit your application, and I'll approve it!"

"yes!"

"Furthermore, regarding this matter, from the division commander to the battalion commander, no one has committed a serious disciplinary offense! The regiment is in such disarray because you officers haven't played your leadership role! Your regiment's university admission quotas are also revoked! If this happens again, you're all fired! I don't need soldiers like you!"

"yes!"

The commander closed his eyes as he looked at this nuisance and said, "Get out of here!"

After everyone had left, the commander took a deep breath before walking out.

Guard Xin hurried over: "Commander, where are you going?"

The commander said irritably, "Of course I'm going to see Comrade Lin Ying. If this group of people causes trouble for Comrade Lin Ying, what will others think of me? They've suffered such a great injustice on my turf. How can I hold my head high in front of them then?"

Fortunately, when the commander arrived at Master Amu's workshop, he saw Master Amu and Lin Ying busy at work without disturbing each other. Judging from Lin Ying's expression, she should not have been wronged.

Seeing the commander approach, Lin Ying put down the tools in her hand.

The commander waved his hand: "It's nothing, I just came to check on you. Comrade Lin Ying, have you suffered any injustice here?"

Lin Ying was puzzled: "No, Master Amu is very good to me and has taught me a lot."

Unaware of the situation, Lin Ying thought that those people had been driven away by Master Amu and that they had complained about him. However, she didn't expect that the complaint was actually a slander against her.

Seeing that Lin Ying was indeed alright, the commander breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're alright. If you need any help here, just let me know. Also, if anyone says anything inappropriate to you, you can come directly to me."

Lin Ying nodded, not understanding why.

The commander was relieved: "It's alright, you go ahead with your work. I just came to check on things."

Lin Ying continued working, and the commander, seeing this, left without disturbing her.
