After the meeting was adjourned, only division commander Zhao Guodong, political commissar Li Aijun and Su Qiyue were left in the conference room.

Seeing Su Qiyue's somewhat puzzled expression, Li Aijun waved his hand to explain.

"In July, there is no doubt that reform is imperative."

"As modern warfare becomes more and more demanding for digitization and informatization, our concepts also need to keep up with this changing general trend."

"In the past two years, our division has carried out a drastic reorganization of the two main regiments, the A Regiment and the 702nd Regiment, and sent away many conscientious officers and soldiers."

Speaking of this, Li Aijun's face showed some sad looks.

However, his gaze soon became firm.

"But we all know that this is the need for reform, and it is also the need for modern warfare......"

When Li Aijun said this, division commander Zhao Guodong nodded and said, "What the political commissar said is right. ”

"Our reforms have never been directed at individuals. Everything we do is just to improve the combat effectiveness of our troops. ”

Listening to the two division leaders taking turns, Su Qiyue probably guessed what they were going to say.

Sure enough, Li Aijun soon opened his mouth.

"After the problem of leaving the grassroots fighters and staying behind is slowly resolved, a new problem is also placed in front of us."

Looking into Su Qiyue's eyes, Li Aijun said word by word: "This new problem is the improvement of the quality of our grassroots commanders and fighters. ”

After a pause, Political Commissar Li then opened his voice, "According to the survey conducted by Comrade Fang Yuan and Comrade Zhong Kai, only about 16 percent of the grassroots commanders and fighters at the battalion and company level in our division have a bachelor's degree, and even if the requirements are relaxed to a college degree, only 43 percent can be reached. ”

"With such a data, there is still a very obvious gap between the high-quality requirements of grassroots commanders and fighters put forward by the army......

Listening to Political Commissar Li's well-founded words, Su Qiyue nodded lightly.

On the other hand, Zhao Guodong also interjected: "With the modernization of weapons in the army, the quality requirements for grassroots commanders and fighters are getting higher and higher. ”

"Without a certain degree of education and knowledge, it is difficult to do better with enthusiasm alone."

"For some technical positions, it's even more so."

Senior Commander Zhao frowned deeply and said: "For example, the electronic battalion has no foundation in information technology or computer and other related majors, so it is simply not competent. ”

"According to the division's plan, the scale of the electronic battalion will be further expanded in the next one or two years. If we don't find talent as soon as possible, we are likely to find ourselves in a situation where there is no one to use in the future......"

After Master Zhao finished speaking, Political Commissar Li glanced at Su Qiyue.

"In view of the serious shortage of talents with a bachelor's degree in our division, I have discussed with the division commander several times, and we all feel that relying on the distribution of various military academy units alone can no longer meet the requirements for talents in our division."

"Therefore, our division has decided to start this year to carry out some special recruitment of key technical personnel for ordinary colleges and universities to deal with the current shortage of talents."

Li Aijun said conclusively: "This matter has been reported to the group army by the division and approved by the military region. ”

"It's June now, and it's graduation season for college."

"The division commander and I decided that you would lead the team to go to some familiar ordinary colleges and universities to see if we could recruit some talents who were interested in serving the country."

After saying this, Li Aijun stopped talking and gave Su Qiyue a time to think.

In fact, the division commander and the political commissar had just started up, and Su Qiyue guessed what the two of them thought.

The special recruitment is indeed a shortcut to improving the troops' modern combat capability and special technical level as soon as possible.

The so-called special recruitment refers to the military's policy of accepting graduates of ordinary colleges and universities.

Speaking of this policy, it is completely different from the promotion of soldiers who have graduated from college students.

The promotion of university graduates to soldiers requires college graduates to be conscripted into the army and perform compulsory military service.

And "special moves" are not needed.

According to the "Decision on Establishing a System for Relying on Ordinary Higher Education to Train Military Cadres" issued by the state and the military, special recruitment and national defense students are the two existing ways to supplement grassroots officers.

To put it bluntly, this "special recruitment" means that the army directly selects officers from among the fresh graduates of universities.

Its main purpose is to select and promote technical personnel and personnel for special posts that are in short supply in the military.

After all, most of the military's colleges and universities have limited specializations and standards, and they are far from having as many majors as local universities.

Even a leader in the military like UCAS and a top first-class university like Qingbei are completely incomparable.

And the "special recruitment" also makes graduates of ordinary colleges and universities have one more life choice.

After undergraduates, master's students, and doctoral students in ordinary colleges and universities have undergone training, they will be appointed as lieutenant deputy company, captain company, and major officer in the main battalion (deputy battalion).

The professional and technical level is set as professional and technical level 13, 12 and 10 respectively.

Of course, in the current 05 period, college students are still very popular.

After joining the work, the income is definitely not low.

The "special recruitment" in the army is not so tempting for graduates of ordinary colleges and universities, especially famous schools.

This is especially true for master's and doctoral students.

It was not that the C Army had not made special recruits before, but in the end it failed to recruit enough places.

This time, the division put the burden of the "special recruitment" on itself, instead of handing it over to Deputy Political Commissar Lu Fangyuan and Director of the Political Department Ning Zhongkai to be in charge as usual.

This situation made Su Qiyue a little strange.

Li Aijun also seemed to see Su Qiyue's puzzlement, so he smiled and started speaking.

"In July, do you have any concerns about leading a team to recruit officers from ordinary colleges and universities this time?"

Su Qiyue was stunned for a moment, and then said in a voice: "Political commissar, I don't have any concerns, but I just feel that if I lead the team, my qualifications are too shallow." ”

Hearing this, division commander Zhao Guodong suddenly sighed.

"Are you worried that you are too tender-faced and will make graduates of ordinary colleges and universities suspicious?"

Seeing that the teacher had broken his words, Su Qiyue also generously admitted it.

He bowed his head slightly and said, "Yes, division commander." I don't have anything to do with myself, mainly because I'm afraid of missing the special recruitment of the division. ”

After Su Qiyue finished speaking, Zhao Guodong and Li Aijun glanced at each other and laughed.

"Don't worry, July. The concern you mentioned was thought of by the teacher and I before! ”

Li Aijun said calmly: "Let you take the lead this time, we just take a fancy to your youth." Invisibly, it is just right to give our T division a publicity. ”

"At the same time, it also changes some of the inherent perceptions of the troops from the outside."

Turning his head and glancing at the division commander Zhao Guodong, Li Aijun said happily, "Let everyone see, the meritocracy of our troops!" ”

Zhao Guodong replied with a sigh of relief: "Yes, the lieutenant colonel who is not yet 24 years old, the battalion commander at the regimental level." This advertisement is definitely more effective than sending Lao Lu and Director Ning! ”

"yes, July!"

Li Aijun finally said, "You don't have any worries about this task. ”

"This week, you study the itinerary and see which cities you want to run."

"After the itinerary is decided, you will go directly to inspect and recruit people."

Zhao Guodong also nodded again and again: "Yes, July." ”

"This 'special move' mission, we will leave it to you. When you turn around, you need a few people, and the division will arrange it for you. ”

The division commander and the political commissar took turns to fight, and they didn't give themselves a chance to speak at all.

Although Su Qiyue still had something to say, he could only agree first.

Zhao Guodong and Li Aijun saw that they didn't have much effort to convince this kid, and they all showed relieved smiles on their faces.

"Anyway, the people I picked, our digital synthesis camp must have the right of priority, and this trip is not a loss......

When he said goodbye to the two chiefs and left, Su Qiyue couldn't help but think secretly in his heart.

……

After returning to the synthesis camp, Su Qiyue came to Zhou Zhiyang's office for the first time.

Seeing him sitting on the guest sofa silently, Zhou Zhiyang was slightly stunned.

Zhou Zhiyang was naturally not qualified to attend the meeting attended by cadres at or above the regimental level in the division.

He was also unclear about what was being discussed at the meeting.

Seeing Su Qiyue's silent appearance at this time, Zhou Zhiyang couldn't help but ask.

"Battalion commander, what's going on? It's the division that has a meeting, and what new requirements have been put forward for our synthetic battalion? ”

The Digital Synthesis Camp has been established for less than half a year, and the achievements have been remarkable.

In particular, in a previous exercise with the special operations brigade of the group army, the opponent was pressed and beaten from beginning to end.

Such a result made Zhou Zhiyang, an instructor who was about to reach the age of changing jobs, also burst out with new enthusiasm.

For Su Qiyue, the battalion commander, he was even more convinced from the bottom of his heart.

Now suddenly seeing the appearance of the battalion commander, who has always been calm, Zhou Zhiyang is a little breathless.

Listening to this partner's question, Su Qiyue sighed and shook his head.

"Lao Zhou, don't get me wrong, the division is still very supportive of the work of our synthesis camp, let us do it, and didn't put forward new requirements for us."

After listening to Su Qiyue's explanation, Zhou Zhiyang's expression was relieved.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Su Qiyue spoke again.

"It's just that the division commander and the political commissar gave me a new task......"

"Huh?"

Zhou Zhiyang was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked, "The division commander asked you to take on other positions?" ”

Regarding the future trend of his partner, Zhou Zhiyang has his own judgment.

In his opinion, Su Qiyue got to this point because he was too old, and it was difficult to go back in a short period of time.

After all, if this person is one step further, he has already reached the deputy division level.

The deputy division level has been a goal that many officers have been unable to achieve in their entire lives.

Therefore, in Zhou Zhiyang's view, it is estimated that Su Qiyue will have to stay up at the level of the main group for a while in the next two or three years.

Of course, although the rank will not be promoted, it is very possible that this person will also hold an increasingly important position.

For example, concurrently serving as the head of the war department in the division or something.

For Su Qiyue, Zhou Zhiyang has long been free of any jealousy.

The more steady the partner's steps, the more happy he is to see it happen.

After all, the digital synthesis camp still needs to work together under his leadership to forge ahead.
