Xiao Chubei took two deep breaths and clenched his fists, "Cheng Mujiang, I don't have the right to punish you, I just hope you can correctly recognize this problem." ”

Although Xiao Chubei was angry, he still understood the rules of the organization.

Cheng Mujiang raised his eyebrows and squinted at him and said, "I know, I know, we are not all the way, you are a calculating, you can't rub a little sand in your eyes." Being a man is not tactful at all, no wonder you were punished. ”

"Thank you for the compliment!" Xiao Chubei said very seriously.

Cheng Mujiang was annoyed by his attitude, "If you don't know how to unite comrades, you will pick bones in the egg, Xiao Chubei ......" called him by his name, "Let me remind you that now we are focusing on economic construction." ”

"That's the country's economic policy, what do you care about the military?" Xiao Chubei asked rhetorically.

"Why doesn't it have anything to do with the soldiers?" Cheng Mujiang shook his head amusedly, "It's a shame that you still came out of the capital at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and the guiding ideology of army building has undergone a strategic change, don't use wartime standards to measure peacetime work." ”

"Whether it is the era when politics is in command or the present when economic construction is the foundation, soldiers should be ......," Xiao Chubei pointed to the table with his index finger and said, "A soldier is a soldier who is always ready to go to the battlefield to fight, but now that he is trained like this, how can he fight?

Looking at the two leaders who were competing against each other, Wu Yuanliang said loudly, "Okay, okay, okay, the two leaders don't want to fight, I will also say a few words, what Deputy Division Commander Xiao said makes sense." Against the backdrop of taking economic construction as the central task, how to manage the troops and how to conduct training has indeed aroused our attention. If we don't reserve elite soldiers now, then what will we use in the future?"

Xiao Chubei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Lao Cheng, I think there are only two states for soldiers: fighting and preparing for war. This is the meaning and value of the existence of military personnel. ”

Having said that, there is nothing to say here, Xiao Chubei also needs to give everyone some time to each other, and it is not good to force it too hard.

In the following time, Xiao Chubei carefully visited the barracks, and finally did not see any major mistakes.

Until the evening, Xiao Chubei knocked on the door of Xu Ruifeng's office, "Let's go outside." ”

"Yes!" Xu Ruifeng said.

The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, the silver light is swaying on the earth, and the soft breeze is blowing warmly on people's bodies.

The two walked on the playground, stopped in front of the rostrum, sat on the ground, and sat on the rostrum.

Xiao Chubei said straight to the point, "Xiao Xu, I came to you to talk to you. ”

"What else is there to talk about. Xu Ruifeng said discouragedly.

Xiao Chubei said with a straight face, "Let's talk about why your work attitude is so negative, why your thinking style is so loose, and why you are listless every day." ”

"How much does the deputy division commander know about me. Xu Ruifeng took off his mask and said angrily.

"I know that you are a top student of the National Defense University, and you have excellent grades in all subjects. Xiao Chubei looked at him and said.

"After graduation, I want to go to the United States to study computer science, I want to study abroad, I don't spend a penny from the country, and there are scholarships. Xu Ruifeng smashed his fist on his leg and said angrily, "But my dad thinks that I went abroad for pleasure, has no ideals, and scolds me for being immoral, I really didn't expect him to be so narrow-minded, now it's the end of the eighties, and he is about to enter the twenty-first century, and he still wants to fight tanks alone." Studying abroad is precisely because of patriotism, returning from school, and serving the motherland. "Trembling with anger and tears in his eyes, "He threw me to this hellish place." "What an old stubborn, narrow-minded, ignorant ......."

Xiao Chubei smiled when he heard this, "I know who your father is?"

"You know who my dad is, and he insists on disciplining me. Xu Ruifeng looked at him in surprise and said, others are not in a hurry!

"Xu Ruifeng, do you think that if you are the son of the army commander, you can live in the army. Xiao Chubei said in a stern voice, "Let me tell you, if it were someone else, I might not punish him, just because you are the son of a soldier, I must punish you." I'm a little bit of a boss, and this is also to let you understand what is the responsibility of a soldier. The army is a lathe for rolling steel, a big anvil for calcining iron, but when you get used to that stiffness, you will think that the army is a melting pot is not bad at all. ”

Xiao Chubei continued, "I know you think we are conservative and stubborn, so it's better for you to be ahead of your time, dare to think and dare to do! I don't understand you. ”

"I didn't mean that?" Xu Ruifeng said embarrassedly. He didn't dare to be arrogant in front of him, and he had read many of his published articles one by one.

"I ask you, who do you think was the strongest in World War II. Xiao Chubei suddenly asked a question that was not related.

"The American Eagle, of course. Xu Ruifeng admired, "Although they have a single style of play and don't look down on them in my eyes, they are indeed very strong." In the end, it was the victorious power. ”

Xiao Chubei looked at him and smiled slightly, "In the entire World War II, the U.S. army was the most scared of the Japanese army, as far away as the Philippine Campaign in 1942, when 78,000 U.S. troops and the Philippine Army confronted 50,000 Japanese troops. Recently, to use a non-serious analogy, the battle between the American army and the German army can go all the way with a military song played, but in the battle with the Japanese army, the military song often turns into a cry. "Tarawa, Kwajalein, Saipan, Tinian, Iwo Jima, Okinawa, Guam...... There was not a single island attack that the US army did not destroy with overwhelming firepower in advance - the superiority in troops and equipment was much greater than against the German army. However, these battles were won by the U.S. military at a heavy cost of heavy casualties. Taking the Battle of Okinawa as an example, there were more than 100,000 Japanese troops defending the island on Okinawa. Before the battle, the ships that reinforced Okinawa were bombed and sunk, the building materials sank to the bottom of the sea with the ships, the island could not build high-strength fortifications, and the original small number of aircraft, tanks, and artillery were also blown up by the US Air Force, and the defenders could only rely on machine guns, rifles, and grenades in their hands to meet the battle. The Japanese army built three lines of defense on the island and implemented a defensive defense. In order to capture Okinawa, the US military concentrated 452,000 troops, 2,500 aircraft, and more than 1,500 warships, of which the Fifth Fleet alone had 40 aircraft carriers (including escort aircraft carriers), 18 battleships, 30 cruisers, and more than 200 destroyers. It's no longer like a cannon hitting a sparrow, it's like a cannon hitting a mosquito. After the battle began, the U.S. fleet fought a fierce naval battle with the Japanese Combined Fleet before the Japanese fleet was repulsed. When the threat from the sea was lifted, the US Marines and others immediately launched a surprise attack on Okinawa, and the first wave of 182,000 officers and men landed. This battle of great disparity in strength lasted from April 1 to July 2, 1945, with bombardment of ships, bombing of aircraft, shelling of tanks, and firing of flamethrowers, and it took three months to fight. More than 97,000 Japanese soldiers were killed, 12,520 American troops were killed, and more than 60,000 were seriously and lightly wounded. The Americans were shocked by the fact that the war was so difficult. ”
