Chapter 177 Great minds think alike!
It was late May and the weather was already very hot. Many people were sweating a lot, but Jiang Yan and Chen Xu felt a chill on their backs and did not dare to look in the direction of the commander, especially since they had just been scolded by Deputy Commander Xing.
You can't blame them for failing at the critical moment. If the generals they faced were enemies, no one would have backed down. But these generals were comrades, so it was different...
The backbones hadn't been awarded ranks yet, and their highest position had been battalion commander. Although they spoke on stage as instructors, it was actually just a lecture, a subordinate lecturing their superior. Isn't this a joke? Although unity between officers and soldiers is important, not everyone is as broad-minded as the commander!
...
Soon, everyone in the Ganbu group tried hard to hold back their laughter. Deputy Head Xing said something to the students, and when they went back, they almost walked out incoherently, especially Jiang Yan and Chen Xu. The uneasiness in their hearts instantly faded a lot.
Hehe! Even the knowledgeable Deputy Head of the Xing Group is so unbearable. Big brother, let alone second brother, no one should laugh at anyone else...
Immediately, one of the cadets stepped out, marching in standard military posture, head held high and chest puffed out, onto the podium...
Gan Bu Tuan immediately understood that the lieutenant general was going to speak on behalf of the students...
Jiang Yan and Chen Xu breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Great, they could skip the teacher's speech...
The next moment, all the backbones held their breath almost at the same time, staring at the stage. What?
The lieutenant general paused with a snap, raised his hand and saluted Commander Xu, his movements extremely natural...
The return gift on the other side is more natural...
When the people in the audience saw this scene, they were stunned.
Jiang Yan's head was buzzing. Oh my god! What did I see? A lieutenant general saluted a colonel, and he saluted like a subordinate.
Without giving everyone time to think further, a voice from the stage rang out...
"My name is Wang Jialie... former commander of the 25th Army... At this moment, with an extremely heavy heart, I stand where I shouldn't be..."
The first half of the conversation went smoothly. When they heard the self-introduction on the stage, everyone had a look of astonishment. This lieutenant general was the army commander. But after hearing the second half, the core members instantly lost their composure, and many even couldn't help whispering...
"Well? Isn't this Lieutenant General giving a speech?"
"Stupid, this is a fucking inspection..."
"Fuck! The Lieutenant General is making a self-criticism. Holy shit! Has this world gone crazy?"
"Shut up, everyone! No talking in the queue! Don't embarrass the commander..."
As soon as the words fell, everyone stood up straight, listening attentively. He was right. Now everyone knew that although the commander spoke harshly, he actually treated the dry cloth ball as a treasure. Especially with the representative of the 25th Army standing next to him, they must not embarrass the commander...
The one who couldn't help cursing was Chen Xu. He spoke very toughly, but he knew that his hands and feet were getting weak and he could hardly stand. It was not because of anger, but because of excitement.
I originally thought that Commander Xu's words of comfort were just polite talk, but I didn't expect that Commander Xu was really consistent in his words and deeds. He did what he said and corrected any mistakes he found in a timely manner.
That lieutenant general was simply caught without his cap during an inspection, and he was forced to write a written self-criticism, and he didn't seem to be reluctant at all...
Pingnan is simply the Garden of Eden in Chen Xu's mind. At a certain moment, looking at Xu Shuchang not far away, he seemed to be emitting a dazzling brilliance...
As time passed and the lieutenant general's review drew to a close, the eyes of the key members became incomparably fiery. Jiang Yan and Chen Xu, among them, hadn't known when it began, but an unparalleled confidence welled up in their hearts. At the same time, they had quietly resolved to be good instructors, even at the cost of their lives...
...
Bai Zhanghui took the stage and the inspection continued...
Wang Jialie did not go back, but found Xu Zhenhua instead.
After a conversation between the two, Xu Zhenhua would have started cursing if they were not in a meeting, so he could only lower his voice and curse quietly.
"Wang Jialie, you idiot! You're the only one in Pingnan who dares to make demands on me. No, this position of Vice Chairman of the Military Commission must go to you!"
It is inevitable to expand the membership of the Military Commission. Now, apart from Xu Zhenhua, only Wang Jialie in Pingnan can control the situation. Li Yunlong and Xing Zhiguo are not good enough. The county government cannot control it, especially since Xu Zhenhua is preparing to leave Pingnan and plan a global trade war.
On the other side, Wang Jialie had long learned to play rogue.
"Shengze, you're the one hanging. If I said this before my self-criticism, I'd be setting conditions. Now I'm reporting the situation to my superiors..."
"You... okay, okay, reflect the situation, right? Give me a reason..."
"Oh! The reason is simple. The county government is too busy. I just can't spare any time!"
Wang Jialie's tone was sincere, revealing some helplessness, but he would never tell his true feelings even if he was beaten to death. Just kidding, he said he would not care about the army, so he would not care about the army. Apart from avoiding suspicion, he was really fed up. He was psychologically traumatized by Nanjing's torture in the past, and this was just one of the reasons.
The key point is that he is now the second-in-command of Pingnan administration. Although he is exhausted like a dog every day, he is having a great time. Even if Lao Chang wants to swap positions with him, he is unwilling to change.
For example, a while ago, Wang Jialie was conducting research at a nearby location with no access roads. His car got stuck in a mud pit, so he sent for help from nearby villagers. Thousands of them showed up...
Wang Jialie still tears up when he recalls that scene. He remembers how much the people recognized and supported the county government. He finally realized that the path Xu Shengze outlined was the right one. You put the people first, and the people lifted you up high...
Therefore, Wang Jialie made up his mind to focus on construction and make some achievements...
On the other side, Xu Zhenhua really wanted to beat this guy up. Damn it, I know everything you said while drinking and bragging with others in private...
Before I could refuse, Li Yunlong came over unexpectedly...
When the satellite was launched in the afternoon, communication between various units was strictly prohibited, and the county government and the army did not cross each other. Although they stood together, they did not talk to each other. Now it was different. Li Yunlong had long wanted to meet Commander Wang, and immediately greeted him happily.
"Hey! You are Lao Wang, right?"
"Uh? Could you please not use the word 'bar'?"
"Hehe! Sorry, sorry, oops! This isn't my fault, it's all Xu Zhenhua's fault. This kid has no manners and has led me astray..."
Wang Jialie was suddenly stunned, looking at Li Yunlong in disbelief, then tightly grasped the other's hands, sighing.
"Oh my! Great minds think alike! Even though I'm not very talented, I'm still called a scholar-general. Ever since I met Xu Shengze, my mouth has been completely out of control. Foul words come out as soon as I open my mouth..."
Xu Zhenhua: “…”
The two men came together and exchanged pleasantries for a while. Xu Zhenhua was so angry that he was about to explode, but he didn't care at the moment.
"Old Wang, Old Wang, why did you arrange for Zhang Zhigang to be on stage? Let him get off quickly..."
"Eh? Shengze, have you forgotten? I don't manage the military. Zhang Zhigang is under your command now. Besides, isn't it just a dozen inspections?"
