After killing the enemy, the convoy continued on its journey.
On the way, the convoy was attacked by the rebels again.
This time they were not so lucky. A military off-road vehicle was hit and two soldiers died.
And this time the patrol was even carried out within the control of the base.
Li Xin was only patrolling from the main base in Yadun to Base No. 3, the air force base of the Army Aviation Regiment.
After getting off the car, Li Xin's face looked unhappy, although the rebels who attacked for the second time were also successfully killed.
But the same problem remains, the cost is not worth it.
The fired ammunition, the destroyed vehicles, and even the dead soldiers are all much more valuable than the rebels.
Liu Yang looked embarrassed. He said, "Normally, within the defense range of the base, we wouldn't be attacked like this."
"Maybe it's because we cut off their arms supply, so the suicide squad came to retaliate..."
Li Xin suddenly stopped, looked at Liu Yang, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "Is this still a matter of us cutting off their arms supply?"
Liu Yang repeatedly explained: "No, no, boss, that's not what I meant."
Li Xin didn't continue to pay attention to Liu Yang. Liu Yang's spirit had been crushed by Yadun's long-term suppression.
Now is the time for Li Xin to charge, but he has not found the right direction yet.
After entering Base No. 3, the convoy took a temporary break.
The person in charge of Base No. 3 is Guan Yong from the Army Aviation Regiment, who is coming to greet them with officers from the base.
Li Xin, along with the staff officers and Guan Yong, inspected the entire No. 3 Base.
Base No. 3 not only has the Army Aviation Regiment and its affiliated ground crew, but also an infantry battalion as the base's defense force.
This time, Li Xin checked the defenses of every part of the base.
If you don't check some things, everything will be fine, but once you check them, there will be many problems.
Standing in a barracks, Li Xin looked at the chaos here, with weapons and tools placed randomly.
Some of the base's defensive outposts had not been maintained for a long time and had various problems.
Li Xin also checked the defense schedule within the base and previous garrison records.
There were so many questions that Li Xin felt his scalp tingling.
The soldiers' military discipline is a bit loose. With loose military discipline, how can we talk about combat effectiveness?
Li Xin looked at Guan Yong, who was accompanying him on the inspection, and said calmly, "Today, I inspected the defense work at Base No. 3."
“As for the specific situation, I can only say that I am very disappointed!”
"The base's outposts and fortifications haven't been maintained in at least six months, from what I can tell!"
"The soldiers' military discipline is lax, and their weapons are placed haphazardly. In such an environment, how can the soldiers maintain their combat effectiveness?"
"Guan Yong, you have just taken over the position of commander of the 665th Army Aviation Regiment. I can forgive you for the previous incident at Base No. 3 this time."
"After you go down, I hope you can get moving as soon as possible and get the entire base moving. Military discipline must be enforced, defensive fortifications must be repaired, weapons and equipment must be repaired, and those that need replacement must be reported immediately!"
"If you don't deal with these past problems now, will you wait until they fall on you later?"
After hearing what Li Xin said, Guan Yong's face flushed red. He said, "Boss, don't worry. When I return, I will strictly clean up the base."
Li Xin said to Guan Yong earnestly, "We are all new here, and a new official must make some great moves!"
"The troops in these bases are all veterans. Think about it, they used to follow Xiang Qi to resell arms. Can they be good people? Do they still have any desire to fight?"
"If you don't start with a ruthless approach and light three fires, how will you continue your work?"
"You are here as a military commander, not to just idle away your time!"
Guan Yong wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Supervisor, it's my fault. I...mainly because I just arrived here, and I want to first understand the situation and get along with the officers and soldiers. I want to maintain stability first, and then..."
Li Xin frowned upon hearing this and said, "Absurd!"
"Between people, you take a step back and he takes a step forward."
"I've already made it clear at the general meeting that these officers will be forgiven for the Xiang Qi case. So now is the best time for you to enforce military discipline!"
"If you act like brothers with them now and turn a blind eye to some of the problems within the base, then if they get too aggressive in the future, it will be even more difficult for you to deal with them!"
After hearing this, Guan Yong had to nod his head.
Li Xin knew Guan Yong's information. This guy had never been a military commander and was a staff officer before. Lack of experience was a problem.
Li Xin said, "This is your first time as a commander, so I understand you have no experience."
"But I'm very optimistic about you. Compared to others, your future is promising."
"This work at Base No. 3 is a test for you and for all of us at the group. If you handle it well, your future promotions will be smooth sailing. If you don't, your future development will be limited!"
"If it weren't for training you, wouldn't it be better to just transfer experienced veteran officers to handle it? Veteran officers can easily handle these veteran soldiers."
"Since you've let us come, we can't lose face. Don't be afraid of losing face. The group's system is your strongest backing."
"You have to be strict from the beginning, making everyone feel that you are a strict leader in terms of military discipline, missions, and defense. Then your work will be easier later on. If you encounter minor problems, you can let them go at this time and win the hearts and minds of your subordinates."
"If you relax at the beginning, how can you manage it later?"
After listening to this, Guan Yong's face was full of regret. He said, "Boss, you are right. I understand now."
Upon hearing this, Li Xin patted Guan Yong on the shoulder and said, "I will call another meeting of the entire army later. I want to bring up this matter again and have the entire army clean up its act."
"Guan Yong, this time I want to make an example of someone and ask you to take the blame. What do you think?"
After listening to this, Guan Yong patted his chest without any objection and said, "Director, you can scold me at the military meeting without worry. I am willing to be the chicken!"
"I was right about you!" Li Xin patted Guan Yong on the shoulder and continued:
"Don't worry, I'll stay at Base No. 3 for a few more days to support you and allow you to carry out your work smoothly!"
Guan Yong was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Yes! Thank you, Boss!"
