Chapter 255: The Scholar Takes Office, the First Fire
The queue was disbanded and the first group of people began to leave for the academy.
Chen Mo stood on the training ground with his hands on his hips, watching. He had been thinking about the issue of building a camp atmosphere last night and hardly slept a wink.
Anyway, that day, the two companies were just selecting people, doing physical examinations, and conducting mobilization propaganda.
It was nothing serious. He didn't plan to go there so soon. At least he had to stay in the camp, have a good sleep and recuperate.
"Captain, shall we set off now?"
Seeing the familiar people leaving one after another, setting out to set up camp in a heroic and high-spirited manner, Wang Jianyong couldn't help but run over to ask.
"No rush, let's go later. By the way, fax the list prepared by Lao Man to the military district staff."
"Then no matter who calls today, just tell them I'm at the academy. Even if someone from the academy calls, tell them I'm on my way. Remember, tell them this no matter who calls."
Chen Mo waved his hand, gave a few serious instructions, then raised his hand and rubbed his nose as he walked towards the dormitory.
Old Wang was left standing there alone, feeling somewhat confused.
He knew that Man Xuexue had drawn up a list. He asked for fifty people, and they were drawn from the 27th and 38th Armies. What if the list was faxed over and the military district called to verify it?
Also, even if the military district did not verify it, today was the first day of the camp establishment, and so many people from the camp went to the academy, but the battalion commander, the person in charge, was not there.
It's a bit hard to justify, isn't it?
But doubts are doubts.
Seeing that the battalion commander had walked away, Wang Jianyong was helpless. He couldn't force him to stay, so he simply scratched his head and ran to the battalion commander's office to prepare for duty.
In fact, it was not that Chen Mo was unwilling to go to the academy, but the question raised by Lao Pao last night was still lingering in his mind, and there was no perfect way to solve it.
When I was leading the Blue Army Camp before, it was clearly stated that the time was short and that the cooperation would last no more than a month before everyone could go back to their own homes. Any conflicts could be forcibly suppressed.
Now, it’s my turn to lead my own battalion, and I’m afraid that many things can no longer be kept secret and must be put on the table for processing.
In view of these problems.
After thinking about it all night, Chen Mo still felt that setting up a camp should not only have benefits, but also have extremely strict punishment regulations.
As the person in charge of the overall situation, whether in front of the officer corps or in front of the companies, if he wants to put the unit in order in the future, he must show an almost cold rationality.
All problems encountered during the camp construction process must be dealt with decisively. Only in this way can the smooth establishment of the new camp be ensured.
Let me be frank.
That is, Chen Mo was not in a hurry to go to the camp on the first day. Deep down, he hoped that something would happen at the Non-commissioned Officer Academy.
Be it making trouble or disobeying the rules.
He went to settle the matter with thundering means, first establishing his image as the battalion commander before doing anything else.
Although the method of showing one's power is a bit vulgar, it can often solve many problems.
Think about this.
When Chen Molin walked into the dormitory building, he turned his head to look at the convoys leaving the camp one after another, and sighed softly.
"Hopefully, there will be some troublemakers today, otherwise it will be hard to deal with this disciplinary issue directly."
When I lead the troops in the future, I have to emulate Cheng Dong’s character. At the very least, I have to learn how Liu Hongyun behaves in front of the entire battalion.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to control those energetic veterans.
Chen Mo had a comfortable rest. He returned to the dormitory and opened the window to ventilate. There were only a few people left in the camp, so there was no one to disturb him. He slept from morning until after three in the afternoon.
He woke up and stretched, looking at the quiet camp. He grabbed the hat on the bedside and put it on his head, then stood up and walked out of the dormitory.
When Chen Mo arrived at the battalion commander's office in the administrative building, he pushed the door open and almost fainted from the smoke.
The whole room was filled with smoke. Wang Jianyong was sitting in his office, half hunched over his desk and half groggy, looking like he was taking a nap.
"Fuck you, why didn't you choke to death? You don't even know to open the window?"
Chen Mo raised his hand and fanned it a few times, then strode to the window and pushed open the wooden window. Wang Jianyong must have heard the noise as he stood up from his office with a "whoosh".
As soon as he saw who was coming, he immediately made a bitter face and complained: "Battalion Commander, you are finally awake."
"If you don't come over soon, I'll really have to disobey orders and call you."
"What's going on? Is there a problem at the college?" Chen Mo's heart moved when he heard this. Even in his dreams, he was still thinking about establishing his authority in the new unit.
"It's out, and it's quite a lot."
Wang Jianyong picked up the notes he had in front of him and reported, "The list provided by Man Xuexue has been faxed to the military region. The assistant comrade from the General Staff Department has called six times, asking you to answer the phone and give a detailed report."
six times
When Chen Mo heard this number, even he was shocked.
You know, there must be the leader's intention behind the assistant's actions. It is conceivable that he couldn't get in touch with the person after making so many phone calls.
The Chief of Staff must be so angry.
This was the demonstration battalion, and the higher-ups knew what he was thinking. Otherwise, if a commander of a main battalion couldn't reach anyone after repeatedly making phone calls, he would probably be dismissed on the spot.
"Is there anything else?" Chen Mo laughed dryly and touched his nose, wondering whether he should go to the military region recently to let the leader vent his anger.
"have!"
"The reconnaissance company went out this morning to survey the area around Mount Taishan, drawing up maps to prepare suitable training grounds. For some reason, they ran into armed police from the Hedong detachment."
"Anything else?"
"have."
Wang Jianyong nodded: "The Type 95 rifles have been shipped from the general assembly, a total of 362, and this is all we can provide at the moment."
"As for ammunition, it needs to be distributed along with the annual training ammunition. Our military district does not have this kind of small-caliber bullets in stock."
"We applied for annual training supplies too late, and Chief of Staff Cheng said the logistics department is too strict. He recently planned to take his bedding and sleep at the logistics department post."
"Um!"
Chen Mo responded, he had no better solution to the logistical issues.
The last time I went to apply for fuel, I boasted that I needed 3,000 tons and was not kicked out of the office. That was because the Northwest Military Exercise was imminent, and the Logistics Department did not dare to be too strict due to the order issued by the major military region.
If he were to build a camp now, let alone 3,000 tons, even if it was 300 tons, Minister Sun would probably kick him out of the office.
If you don't want to delay your training, you can only resort to this shameless approach and ask for it bit by bit.
"Also, Captain, according to the information sent back by the medical team, a total of 416 cadets at the academy have completed their physical examinations, with a 100% pass rate. There are no issues with their training."
"The first batch of veterans transferred here have excellent physical qualities. They are definitely not just filling in the gaps."
"Of the 416 personnel, 175 are from the 61st Division and are currently assigned to armored infantry and tank companies."
"Also, along with the Type 95 rifles, there was also a ZSL92 infantry fighting vehicle. However, this vehicle is not tracked, but wheeled like a truck. I don't know if it is durable."
"Type 92."
Chen Mo doesn't care about infantry fighting vehicles.
He didn't pay much attention to it when filling out the plan, because for the information battalion, Type 63 and Type 92 are actually the same.
Even in terms of man-carrying capacity, he prefers the former.
For battlefield maneuvers, the Type 63 can seat eleven people. If there is not much equipment to carry, it is not impossible to squeeze one or two more people in. It is very suitable for long-distance maneuvers.
The Type 92 is not very good. It can only carry nine people. Even if the wheeled infantry fighting vehicle runs fast, it will not work if the troops behind cannot keep up.
Informatization emphasizes coordinated operations, but does not require filling in lines or dragging people around on a large scale.
"Anything else?"
"That's all." Wang Jianyong spread his hands. These alone were enough to give him a headache. What else could there be?
"Okay, go ahead, pack your bags, get the car ready, we'll go to the academy too."
Chen Mo waved his hand and strode out of the office.
He didn't need Wang Jianyong's help with his things, mainly because the trouble he had imagined in the morning did not come.
This made Chen Mo feel like he clenched his fist with great excitement, but ended up punching cotton.
Leading a camp is not that easy.
Just look at what Wang Jianyong reported just now. Is there anything that doesn't require his attention?
Whether it is a problem of work style or his own adaptation to the role of battalion commander.
In terms of transformation, it is undoubtedly a big challenge for Chen Mo.
Wang Jianyong was not idle either.
He spent all day with Xiucai, and after so many years of fighting in the army, he could more or less guess what Chen Mo was thinking.
On the howitzer battalion side, most of them are our own people. Even some backbones were brought over from many units, and they were all from the Blue Army Battalion.
I can't say that I know him inside and out, but at least he is familiar with the scholar.
If he went to the Non-commissioned Officer Academy, Chen Mo's identity would not only be an academic staff member, but also the battalion commander of the demonstration battalion.
Having to face and lead two newly formed companies, and taking on all kinds of miscellaneous tasks, the pressure is naturally not small.
Before departure.
Wang Jianyong specifically called the college to communicate the arrival time in advance and asked the cadres there to prepare for the reception.
Regardless of whether the form is important or not, at least we have to do it for the newcomers in the two companies to see, right?
Wang Jianyong's ideas basically reflect the ideas of the entire battalion.
Everyone in the demonstration camp is quite united.
After arriving at the Non-Commissioned Officer Academy, Instructor Fang Peijun selected a cadre of relatively mediocre ability from among the lieutenants who graduated from the Staff Academy to serve as the clerical staff of the battalion.
The clerk received news that the battalion commander would arrive at around 5:30 p.m. and immediately passed the news to the general staff.
Led by Cheng Dong, at 5:10, more than half of the cadres in the battalion ran to the entrance of the Non-commissioned Officer Academy to gather.
There was no queue, but everyone acted as if they were welcoming the leader, waiting quietly.
After the expansion, the area of the Non-commissioned Officers Academy is more than twice as large as before.
The Army Academy's motto was also taken down from the top floor, and all slogans were replaced with "Build an informationized force and win informationized wars" and "Lead with technology, navigate with wisdom, and win future wars."
From top to bottom, it exudes a sense of a new camp and new atmosphere.
The information technology experiment has made progress, and the Army Academy no longer interferes with the construction. The style of the entire non-commissioned officer academy has changed from the quiet and green style before the expansion to a style that is completely in line with the field combat atmosphere.
All internal training equipment is in place, the training ground has been widened, and even the original gate has been moved in front of the teaching and administrative building.
From a distance.
The national flag and military flag fluttered in the wind, and majestic slogans came from the courtyard, making people's blood boil.
On the training ground.
Team after team of veterans in training would occasionally cast their eyes towards the academy gate.
Recently, the academy has conducted expedited training on courses such as radar, drones, and armor maintenance.
In addition to the necessary cultural courses, the instructor repeatedly emphasized the need to set up an information camp.
Cultural courses are only used to assist in the war during the camp establishment period.
But the first group of soldiers who came to the academy had been there for almost half a month and had not seen any signs of building a camp.
Finally there was some movement today. New rifles and infantry fighting vehicles arrived one after another, and all professional veterans were integrated into armored infantry companies and tank companies.
As a result, they just had a physical examination, and were not even allowed to touch the new guns. They were all sent to the training ground to test their physical fitness.
And it lasts for hours.
Just when all the soldiers were feeling uncomfortable, they saw the so-called information battalion cadres gathered at the entrance of the academy, with serious expressions as if they were welcoming some important person.
Many of the soldiers who were in training looked puzzled.
"What do you mean? Is there an important person coming today?"
A second-class sergeant who was running asked with a disdainful grin.
"Who knows? They say the information battalion is important, and they brought all of us here for training. They gave us new guns and new tanks, but what good is that? I've been here for a week and haven't touched anything."
"Damn it, be content. You keep talking about building a camp, but how can it be that easy? I haven't even seen a colonel-level officer come here yet. I really don't know what the point of building this non-commissioned officer academy is."
In the queue.
Many veterans are complaining that to them, neither informatization nor camp establishment is important.
What's important is what they want to do by having so many of them leave their original units.
Just when everyone was questioning the so-called information-based camp construction issues.
Chen Mo drove straight into the college and ignored the crowd greeting him at the door.
Go to the parking lot and wait for the car to stop.
Chen Mo got out of the back seat and swept his sharp eyes over the team that was training in the distance.
He waved his hand at the group of cadres chasing after him from the academy gate and said in a stern voice, "Notify all personnel in the battalion to gather for a meeting immediately."
"One minute."
After saying that, Chen Mo put his hands behind his back, looked up at the team training in the distance, with a sullen face and said nothing.
He has made up his mind.
Since we are setting up a battalion, we must change our previous style. No matter what, we must uphold the identity of the battalion commander.
Only in this way are you qualified to talk about other things.
