Chapter 425 Zhang Xiaoyu Gets Angry
Hearing her say this, Qin Yuan also began to fall into deep thought.
Yes!
For this matter, just a few of us small soldiers and crabs will not play any substantial role.
We can only rely on the leaders
Yes! We have to rely on the leaders!
Qin Yuan's mind flashed, and he immediately thought of a good way.
His originally bitter face gradually smiled.
Long Xiaoyun looked at him with a sly smile and asked.
"Brigade Commander, did you think of something funny?"
"Why are you laughing so obscenely?"
Qin Yuan came back to his senses, put away his smile, and said seriously.
"Brigade Commander, I am thinking of a way to deal with this matter!"
"How can it be as straightforward as you say?"
"Oh?"
"Then tell me, what solution do you think of to solve this problem?"
Qin Yuan smiled maliciously.
"The mountain man has his own tricks."
"Come with me to the theater headquarters tomorrow, and you'll know."
Long Xiaoyun bit him to death with the truth.
He looked completely different from the way he looked online and with that netizen.
After Zhang Xiaoyu finished chatting with Hong Yi, he held an emergency meeting as soon as he returned to the brigade in the afternoon.
After sitting in the meeting room until the evening, Wang Zhigang walked in slowly.
"Political commissar, what's the hurry?"
Zhang Xiaoyu would never give a good face to those who were late.
Questioned.
"I thought you were staying in the dormitory. Where have you been for such a long time?"
Wang Zhigang was confused.
"I went to the sea training site before dinner. The second company of the third battalion practiced shooting at sea, and half of them missed."
"I was so angry that I told them not to sleep at night. Find out the reason for me before going to sleep!"
"Isn't this result embarrassing?"
Zhang Xiaoyu saw that he was angry at the moment, so he didn't want to get angry at him.
Pushed the frame.
"Isn't Lao Zhu at the scene?"
"Why not let him handle it?"
"Do you need a brigade commander to come and give instructions?"
Wang Zhigang said as he brushed off the sand on his body.
"Someone from the military region will come in two days."
"We are going to assess our brigade's assault vehicles' live-fire shooting at sea. Do you think I can't do it myself?"
"What's more, they are still like this. How can you let me rest assured?"
"You really don't know until you go. Once you go, you will be shocked."
Zhang Xiaoyu poured him a glass of water and comforted him.
"The third battalion just arrived at the seaside training ground a few days ago. I think you are a little impatient when you go to sea to shoot live ammunition."
"You really said it!"
"I am really anxious."
"The military will come to assess the day after tomorrow. I will show the leaders a result of five misses out of ten shots."
"Where can I put my face as the brigade commander of the 909th Brigade?"
Hearing him mention face, Zhang Xiaoyu immediately thought of what Hong Yi said and acted it out for the leaders.
He was immediately a little angry and said unhappily.
"No matter where you put it, you have to put it on your own neck."
"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and it's useless to cram at the last minute!"
Wang Zhigang didn't hear the dissatisfaction in his words and began to complain.
"You said that the military district came to assess, why didn't they notify us in advance?"
"Even if they gave us a notice ten days or half a month in advance, it would be fine, right?"
"This has made us so busy!"
Then I don't know what went wrong, and I can actually connect this matter to Qin Yuan.
"Hey, do you think the military is doing this, isn't it a bit like Qin Yuan?"
"Make a surprise attack on our brigade?"
This made Zhang Xiaoyu laugh.
"I think we can't blame the higher-ups for this."
"It's mainly because we don't do enough sea training."
"We didn't start arranging sea training until three days before the assessment."
"It's natural that the results are not ideal."
"It's not ideal now, so it's not ideal!"
"As long as they work hard, I believe the results will go up."
Wang Zhigang was a little curious.
"I said, this doesn't sound like what you, Political Commissar Zhang, said."
Before he finished speaking, the Chief of Staff pushed the door open.
"Political Commissar, Brigade Commander."
"Deputy Brigade Commander Zhu said he had something to do and couldn't come to today's meeting."
When the Chief of Staff came in, Wang Zhigang's previous thoughts were interrupted.
He asked.
"What did I say just now?"
The Chief of Staff continued.
"What did you say?"
"I just arrived and didn't hear anything."
Wang Zhigang turned his head and looked at Zhang Xiaoyu.
"I was talking to the Political Commissar just now. Where was I talking about?"
Zhang Xiaoyu smiled faintly.
"You mean, this doesn't sound like what a political commissar would say."
"No way?"
Wang Zhigang slapped his forehead, suddenly remembered, and said in a puzzled manner.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"You never talk like that."
"The superiors are here to assess us, so we have to give our best results, right?"
"How can you say that if it's not ideal, it's not ideal?"
"Old Wang, there are more new recruits in the second company."
"The tank commander and the gunner are just more soldiers in the company."
"And it's the first time that new equipment has been launched, how can it fight well?"
"I just face reality."
"Besides, Deputy Brigade Commander Zhu proposed the sea training before."
"You always use safety and security as an excuse every time and refuse permission. You can only fight on the shore and do not allow soldiers to go into the water for training."
"Now that everyone is suddenly driven into the sea, how can we fight well?"
When Wang Zhigang saw that Zhang Xiaoyu was placing all the blame on himself, he quickly questioned the chief of staff on the side.
"Ding Kai, didn't you say that the sea conditions were not good some time ago?"
"There are many new recruits. If it is the first time to go to sea, if the car sinks, what will happen to the dead people?"
The chief of staff, who was sitting opposite Wang Zhigang, had been here for a long time and didn't say a word. He was inexplicably stunned and couldn't help but sweat.
Zhang Xiaoyu was not that easy to deal with. He knew that Wang Zhigang wanted to pass the blame at this time, so he asked directly.
"Then why do you let them go into the sea to fire live ammunition now?"
Although there were only three of them in the conference room, Brigadier Wang Zhigang's majesty could not be violated.

Being scolded by Zhang Xiaoyu, Wang Zhigang also became a little angry.
"Political Commissar, you are just making excuses!"
Zhang Xiaoyu saw Wang Zhigang like this.
He does not tolerate the slightest objection from others to his decisions.
He also looked away angrily, not wanting to talk to him.
When the chief of staff saw this, he could only stand up and act as a peacemaker.
"Political commissar, brigade commander, what meeting are you having?"
"Shall we just drive?"
The chief of staff wanted to quickly let them end this topic and turn their attention to this meeting.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaoyu opened his mouth and said.
"Open it!"
"Today's meeting is just a show of provocation!"
The chief of staff was complaining in his heart!
Didn't you read the almanac when you went out today? Why do you get hit by the bullet no matter what you say?
Wang Zhigang also looked at Zhang Xiaoyu in surprise, wondering what he meant.
He said with a sneer.
"What's wrong? Zhang Xiaoyu?"
"Did you take the wrong medicine today?"
Zhang Xiaoyu took a deep breath to calm down the anger in his heart.
"Old Wang, why are you talking?"
"I'm calling you here today. Let's have a meeting to study the reasons for the failure of the last exercise with the Mountain Leopard Brigade."
"Analyze the current problems of our 909 brigade and hope to have a unified understanding."
"Then why does it have to be arranged at night?"
"You are so"
Zhang Xiaoyu didn't let him continue and replied directly.
"I can't sleep!"
As soon as he said this, Wang Zhigang was speechless.
After a while, I had to compromise and not argue with him.
"Okay, tell me!"
"What problems does our brigade have now?"
"After we returned from the defeated battle, the officers and soldiers in the brigade had great fluctuations in their thoughts, which was obvious to everyone."
"However, our leadership of the Standing Committee does not have a unified understanding."
"How should our 909 brigade go in the future? How should we fight this turnaround in the future?"
"If the three of us do not have a unified ideological understanding, a lot of work in the brigade cannot be carried out."
"Also, there are some issues that everyone knows well, but due to human feelings, we can only pretend not to see them and remain silent."
"I think this is a sign of incompetence and irresponsibility!"
"I hope that starting from today, this bar will be raised!"
“Not only do things right, but also people!”
Wang Zhigang looked at him blankly, not knowing that the meaning behind his words was pointing at him.
After he finished speaking, he said with a playful smile.
"What's going on, commissar?"
"Of course it's impossible to avoid problems! Right?"
"But are we defeated?"
"The chief didn't even say a word of criticism."
"Isn't that right, Chief of Staff?"
The chief of staff did not expect that the target of the attack would suddenly turn towards him.
But this time he learned his lesson and stopped talking.
He just smiled and nodded.
Wang Zhigang continued.
"Why do you have to do this to yourself?"
"I don't agree with the use of the word 'arrogance'. It will not sound good if it spreads."
"And the impact is not good either."
"We should be united so we can move in unison, right?"
Zhang Xiaoyu sneered and said nothing.
It seems that Wang Zhigang is still as arrogant and arrogant as ever, and he has no idea about the problems that he had during this exercise.
"Commissar, tell me."
"If we have any problems in training, we will correct them immediately!"
"Can't we just take action now?"
Then he looked at the chief of staff.
"Chief of Staff, tell me."
The chief of staff who was called was confused.
"I?"
"I'm listening!"
Wang Zhigang rolled his eyes at him.
"Now it's about listening, not talking."
"Since the political commissar wants to make a point, you should say a few words."
"Tell me, does what I just said make sense?"
Due to the pressure from his brigade commander, the chief of staff glanced at Zhang Xiaoyu cautiously.
After seeing no emotion on his face, he hesitated.
"I think so, I think"
Wang Zhigang became impatient with waiting.
"Just say what you want, don't be so mother-in-law!"
Being scolded by him, the chief of staff blurted out without thinking.
"I think what the brigade commander and political commissar said makes sense!"
In this way, both sides are taken into consideration, so there shouldn't be any big problem, right?
When Wang Zhigang heard this answer, he gave him an approving look.
"Yes!"
"What we both said makes sense, so it's not called arguing."
Zhang Xiaoyu asked.
"What's that called?"
"Since it all makes sense, it should be called discussing the issue."
After saying that, Wang Zhigang and the chief of staff both laughed, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere at this time.
But Zhang Xiaoyu really planned to get this thing done this time.
Still keeping a straight face.
"Old Wang, I see you are trying to make peace with the mud!"
Wang Zhigang is not a soft persimmon either.
"Don't say that. Isn't it one of your political commissar's jobs to heal the mud?"
This made Zhang Xiaoyu very angry.
Now that Wang Zhigang has arrived, he also knows the purpose of Zhang Xiaoyu's meeting.
"I know that some comrades have recently reported some problems and dissatisfaction."
Zhang Xiaoyu sneered.
"Tell me what your problems and emotions are."
"Lao Hong, Hong Yi."
"He doesn't have any objection because of the unsatisfactory results of this exercise."
"He was dissatisfied from the beginning."
"He did the exercise with personal emotions. Do you think I don't know?"
"However, what he said is not completely unreasonable."
"But the battle plan decided by our brigade party committee, no matter what your opinions are, you must resolutely implement the order!"
"He has kept this feeling until now, and even proposed to change his job."
"Do you think we can accept this emotion?"
Zhang Xiaoyu said calmly.
"What else?"
"There is also the former Commander Zhu. He was also influenced by Hong Yi. Now he can't stand this and is dissatisfied with that."
"Tell me, if all these contradictions are exposed."
"Then what do the officers and soldiers of our brigade think of our brigade leader?"
"How should we carry out our work in the future?"
"Complaining too much can prevent heartbreak. It's better to keep an eye on the future."
"Be more generous, broaden your horizons, don't always care about your personal depression, and just vent it freely."
"Actually, this is a very bad habit."
Then he turned to look at the chief of staff.
"Ding Kai, didn't I ask you to talk to Hong Yi?"
"How did the conversation go?"
The chief of staff looked at Zhang Xiaoyu with an embarrassed look.
Because of this matter, he asked Zhang Xiaoyu to help him talk to Hong Yi.
But I don’t know if Zhang Xiaoyu did it.
I can only say it with a smile.
"I haven't had time yet."
After saying that, he looked at Zhang Xiaoyu as if asking for help.
Zhang Xiaoyu didn't let him down, explained.
"I talked to Hong Yi about this matter."
"But the question is not who is grumbling and who is dissatisfied."
"Then what's the problem?"
"The question is why they are getting angry and whining."
"We, the brigade leaders, don't know the specific reasons at all."
Maybe it was because the chief of staff had talked with Commander Zhu before and knew some of the reasons.
So he stood up and said.
"I think I might still be dissatisfied with the Mountain Leopard Brigade."
"Everyone feels very uncomfortable with the confrontation between the Mountain Leopard Brigade."
"I'm not very used to this kind of unruly drill."
"So they all feel that we followed the training syllabus honestly, but in the end it turned out to be a different routine during the fight."
