Chapter 636: An Inkling
He just knew who was the chief from the capital city that would visit their military unit. Turns out, it was Commander Xia – a person who you wouldn’t dare to look at in the eye.
“There’s no need to make anything extravagant tomorrow. Southern Province is the first area to conduct these military training. The higher-ups regard these highly, which is why they sent me over to take a look. Just let us know what requests or what difficulties you have. Only then will we know how we can improve this and solve the problems.”
Commander Xia was majestic in front of the other commanders. Every word and sentence he said had a deterrent force that could strike other people’s hearts directly. Even if you didn’t bring along a pen, his words would be etched in your memory.
Commander Guo was a lieutenant colonel, but he was not from the capital city. Which was why he was nervous when he met the highest-ranking Commander Xia.
Hearing that, he immediately replied, “There are no problems that would need the main military district to handle for now. Although there are a few small problems, they can all be resolved in a timely manner. The cooperation between the school and the military unit is going well, and we can see the outburst of potential of the students during the few days of military training. These can fully prove that the implementation of military training in the school program is a correct decision.”
“There are many students whose problems can be solved with a few days of military training, but there are also some very stubborn students. This is a family education problem. Even if they were sent to the military, they won’t be able to correct their wrongs.”
He was referring to Luo Ran. He even scolded his soldiers. How could he not teach him a lesson!
Commander Xia managed to get what he was implying and contemplated for a while before responding to him, “What you said is indeed a problem. Many people rely on the fact that their families have a connection within the military, and send their children who have been crooked in their hearts to the military, hoping that the military will correct their ways and put them back on the right track.”
“Some people would turn a blind eye and accept these people as long as it won’t affect their promotion, bringing in trouble and wasting military expenses. All these people have seriously violated our taxpayers.”
“Every students’ military training results must be recorded, and their behavior and character must be noted down in detail, and used for reference in the future when they apply for the military. You can give those mischievous ones a chance if they improve, but not for those who are stubborn. You must never allow them to be in the military in the future.”
If those who were keen about military and politics heard that, they would know that that would be the first step that the main military district had started to rectify the bad atmosphere in the units.
It’s not a trivial matter to rectify the entire army. There were too many people involved and if you were not careful, the entire boat could capsize. As a helmsman, you have to stabilize the rudder and steer the s.h.i.+p to the port.
Commander Guo wasn’t so keen and only knew that the underlying meaning behind the military training was indeed what he and his political commissar had guessed. He felt a.s.sured.
“Commander-in-chief, I would like to follow Commander Guo and visit the chemical defense regiment. Do you think it’s okay?” A major walked to the right of Commander Xia. He didn’t realize his presence until he opened his mouth.
Commander Guo couldn’t help but glance at him… He then had a little inkling. This major’s expression was similar to Commander Xia’s, and he had a foreboding aura that he himself didn’t have when he tightened his lips.
