The meeting is over.
The officers filed out of the conference room, and the holographic projection was turned off.
After all the officers had left, only four people were left in the huge conference room.
Li Xin, Guan Yong, Weng Hua, and Liu Yang.
When no one else was present, Li Xincai said to Guan Yong, "Your task is heavy. You're the first one to be examined. I hope you can do a good job!"
Guan Yong nodded heavily and said, "Yes! Supervisor!"
Liu Yang's expression was a little complicated, because in the military sequence, a defense director like Li Xin was in charge of the overall situation.
But some work still needs to be delegated. For example, today's work, such as the training plan for soldiers and the formulation of standards, are all completed by the chief of staff.
Liu Yang once wanted to do this when he was under Xiang Qi's command, but he lacked support. In addition, Xiang Qi's corruption incident had already brought most of the middle and senior military officers into the same line.
Even if Liu Yang wanted to exert some strength, he had no place to put it.
Moreover, Liu Yang lacked experience at the time, and it would be difficult for him to rebuild his prestige after suffering a setback.
On the other side, Li Xin also continued to instruct Guan Yong: "Don't worry about offending people, and don't worry about your superiors and subordinates getting along with each other in the future after becoming a bad guy!"
"I've already given you a death order. If you can't control them, you'll be fired!"
"Then you should demand the same of them. If they don't perform well, they'll be fired!"
"A new official must be impartial and establish his authority!"
"Others also worry that officials below them have powerful backgrounds and are difficult to manage, or that they may put pressure on you from above."
Li Xin smiled at Guan Yong and said, "But you officers who came with me should be the ones least worried about. In terms of background, who can compare to you?!"
Guan Yong smiled sheepishly and said, "Boss, you're right, but I... don't want to rely on my family either. I want..."
Li Xin smiled and nodded, "I know! You want to build a career on your own, so that people won't say you got here through the backdoor thanks to help from your parents and family!"
"It's not just you. Xu Shan, Weng Hua, Tao Nan, you all think the same way."
"To carve out a niche for yourself, that's real skill!"
Guan Yong and Weng Hua beside him also nodded repeatedly. Li Xin's words touched their hearts.
Li Xinxin smiled in his heart. For him, it was a bit difficult to rely on his parents and find a backer.
However, these second-generation officials at high levels want to break away from the influence of their parents and family, and make everyone feel that it is the reward for their own hard work.
Isn't this like a besieged city? People inside the city want to get out, while people outside the city want to get in.
Li Xin sought but could not obtain what he wanted, but Guan Yong and his men discarded it like a piece of trash.
This is human nature. People will always be in turmoil when they can't get what they want.
However, this is a good thing for Li Xin, as it means that these second-generation officials can be used. What he fears most is those who rely on their family background to disobey orders or even simply ignore Li Xin.
This kind of thing is really difficult to deal with. Whether it is tit-for-tat or ignored, it will be a blow to Li Xin's prestige as the chief officer.
However, from the current perspective, these people are still usable. Although they lack experience, Li Xin doesn't think it is a problem.
Just train under him for a while and get familiar with the job. Aren't all those who have just been promoted inexperienced?
Practice is the best way to train people.
Then, everyone left the meeting room.
Li Xin walked in front, Guan Yong and Weng Hua walked a little behind, and Liu Yang was at the back.
Guan Yong looked at Li Xin's back and muttered quietly, "You said, the director looks younger than us. I heard that this is also his first time as a military commander. Why does he seem so comfortable and so much better than me?"
Weng Hua glanced at Guan Yong and said, "Otherwise, the supervisor is the supervisor, and you can only be the commander of the Army Aviation Regiment."
"Learn more. I'm not saying anything bad about you, but even I think you're doing a bad job!"
Weng Hua and Guan Yong knew each other before, so they spoke more casually.
After hearing this, Guan Yong couldn't help but complain: "No, you don't understand!"
“The pressure of being a chief officer is too great.”
"The officers below are all seasoned veterans. I initially wanted to get to know them better and understand their background before starting any operations."
Weng Hua couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this and said, "Guan Yong, you can use your brain now?"
"By the time you figure out the secrets of these old foxes, they'll even know the color of your underwear. With the way you think, it's no wonder you're being slaughtered like a chicken today."
Guan Yong sighed and nodded, saying, "You're right, I just lack experience."
"These people below have been in the military much longer than I have and have more experience than I do. To be honest, I was intimidated before."
"There are so many things going on at the base that I'm tired of and overwhelmed by. I want to make changes, but I can't find the right opportunity, so I keep putting it off."
Weng Hua said, "Now that the supervisor is here, he's set the tone for you. Now let's get started!"
"Don't worry about falling out. The supervisor is right. They should be afraid of you. As long as you're fair and impartial, they'll behave themselves!"
Listening to the faint sound coming from behind, Li Xin in front smiled silently.
If you don’t know how to manage, you can only do it yourself.
Even this tough guy can't be used as a team.
To put it bluntly, management means using the authority of the system to strengthen personal authority, using the system to control people's hearts, and then using personal charisma to control people's hearts.
The personal character of a military commander will affect the character of the troops below, or the soul of the army.
In the Yadun area, there are a total of twelve bases, dozens of outposts and checkpoints.
The previous soul came from Xiang Qi, but Xiang Qi had no interest in military affairs and was only thinking about making money.
They embezzled the army's logistical supplies, resold arms, and even colluded with the administrators of Yadun to expand the scope of corruption and bribery.
How could such a military commander possibly instill a good spirit into the soldiers in the Yadun region? A spirit that dared to fight and fight?
Therefore, although the soldiers in the Yadun area are veterans and have fought in security battles, their individual combat effectiveness is still acceptable, but the overall combat effectiveness of the army is not good.
At the same time, the soldiers' desire and will to fight are not very good. Such an army may work in Yadun, but if it is pulled to other battlefields, it may not perform well.
Faced with such an army and the myriad of tasks, Li Xin felt a little overwhelmed at first.
But Li Xin soon felt that instead of changing it slowly, it would be better to cut the Gordian knot and rectify the military discipline first.
