Chapter 52 The Reform Begins
The second major event of the year was also a conference. When this meeting was held, no one thought of it as an ordinary meeting anymore, and everyone believed that after this meeting, something extraordinary would happen. Naturally, it did not disappoint everyone, and after this meeting, there was also a major event that can go down in history.
This was in August of this year, and at a time when the whole army was carrying out activities to promote a healthy style and discipline, and when the fight against tigers and flies was in full swing, the meeting was held, and the leading cadres of the whole army and above were attending the meeting. But the day after the meeting, the newspaper news published the news about the meeting. The theme of the conference was reform. He put forward the strategy of reforming and strengthening the army, and if the troops want to win the war, they must carry out reforms.
According to the news, the head of the Central Military Commission said that the army has to fight a war, and all aspects of the construction of the army must focus on fighting a war and must proceed from fighting a war. The head of the Central Military Commission said that the current reform is an all-round and thorough reform, and all areas that do not meet the requirements for fighting a war must be changed, and all areas that do not meet the requirements for fighting a war, whether it is the system or mechanism, or the organization of the troops, must be changed, and they must be resolutely and thoroughly reformed.
After reading this news, I was really excited and burst into tears, and a hot stream really surged in my heart, and the tears almost came out. I have complained and complained for so many years, isn't it all because of the current situation of the troops, and the troops are finally going to be reformed, and I don't know how the troops will be changed, and I don't know what the troops will become, but I firmly believe that the troops will definitely get better and stronger as they change.
I know that during the period of military reform, the higher authorities will definitely come down to conduct investigations, and I have written a draft and handed it over to the research group when it comes to conduct investigations, and I want to tell the higher authorities the thoughts of the officers and men at the grassroots level, hoping that the leaders will pay more attention to the thoughts and thoughts of the officers and men at the grassroots level. In this draft, I have only talked about one idea, and I have written: The main task of the army is to fight wars, and the central task is training, so in reform, we must resolutely remove all matters that have nothing to do with fighting wars and affect training. It is proposed to implement a system of separating support from training, whereby the training force of the troops should devote all their energy to studying and carrying out training, and all support work should be entrusted to designated departments to be responsible for doing a good job in support, specializing in the main camp, and performing their own duties. In particular, grass-roots companies must be separated, resolutely abolish vegetable planting and pig raising, resolutely abolish logistical construction, and hand over all day-to-day logistical construction to designated personnel. The officers and men of the company only studied training, and no longer studied raising pigs and growing vegetables.
This is my greatest wish since I became a soldier. Actually, I love being a soldier. I feel proud to be a soldier, and every day, I actively work hard to participate in training and improve my personal quality. However, the complicated and complicated things in my actual work have always bothered me, affected me, and consumed me. There are three things that give me the most headaches, the first is the high standard of growing vegetables and raising pigs, the second is the endless meetings, and the third is the countless material presentations. These three things made me, including a large part of the officers and men, have no intention of training at all.
I sincerely hope that the reform of the armed forces will resolutely and thoroughly get rid of all old malpractices and will face modern wars, world challenges, and national interests with a new look. I believe that this reform will certainly make the armed forces stronger.
It is precisely because of this incident that I have strengthened my determination to continue working in the army. Two days before the meeting, I even wrote an application for changing jobs, and when I was hesitating whether to report whether to report or not, the meeting was held, and the comprehensive reform was carried out, and I burned the application for transfer to another job, and I wanted to personally witness the reform of the army and make my own contribution to the reform of the army.
It's not a matter of a day or two that I want to change jobs. As soon as I graduated and joined the border guards, I had the idea of changing jobs. When I graduated, I came to the northern frontier troops from the city's military academy, and I first took a train for nearly a day to the provincial capital city of Hashi, and then took a train for another night to report to the Shuanglong City Military Subdistrict. Since there was no shuttle bus, I stayed in the county for another night, and the next day I took a bus for more than two hours before I finally came to the border regiment to report for duty. I can't imagine that I'm going to be a soldier here, maybe even ten or twenty years here. So, on the first day I came here, I had the idea of changing jobs, and there were more than a dozen platoon commanders in the same batch, and there were also three platoon commanders assigned to a company. Of course, these methods are just talk, and no one really implements them. Everyone is comforting themselves in constant research, and they survive day after day.
The second time I had the idea of changing jobs was after falling out of love, and my girlfriend, who had been with me for several years, resolutely broke up with me, saying that she didn't want to wait for me anymore. I was depressed for a long time, and I had already made up my mind to change jobs and said I wouldn't do anything. However, after the patient teaching of the company commander and the instructor, I regained my spirits, and then met Wang Ruoshi through the sorority meeting, and with Wang Ruoshi's continuous encouragement, I once again strengthened my ideas, clarified my goals, found the direction, and completed the work in the army in a down-to-earth manner.
The third time I had the idea of changing jobs was after I joined the war, when I saw the weakening of the combat effectiveness of the troops, and at the same time I also felt that the current situation of the troops was that they were not really going to fight at all, and they were doing some meaningless things every day, which really drained people's fighting spirit and decadent people's thinking. This time, it was Wang Ruoshi's patient education and guidance that made me straighten my mind again and made me clear that as long as I want to do something meaningful, I can do it anywhere, and if I don't want to do it, even if I go back to the place. So, I was firm in my belief again. But the good times did not last long, and within a month, I was tortured and collapsed by the reality of the troops.
The idea of changing jobs for the fourth time was in August, before the reform meeting, at this time, after Wang Ruoshi's education and guidance, he was more motivated ideologically, and was conscientiously completing his own work, planning how to make full use of the rest time, and at this time there was no idea of changing jobs. However, at this time, it happened to be summer, and the work of ensuring safety and stability at all levels was particularly tight; as the saying goes, seven, eight, nine, a tiger rescues his comrades-in-arms from the mouth, and there are many meetings at all levels to grasp safety, and sometimes they are even held all day. That's not all, the higher authorities also demand that they grasp the spirit of the speeches of the leaders at all levels, and that they also have to ask questions. One day, I was writing materials in the company, when the phone rang, and I picked it up. The problem was that the higher-level duty room asked me about the main points of the speech made by the head of the theater at yesterday's safety work meeting, and I didn't know that I had memorized it at all, and there was no one around me to remind me at that time, so I was criticized by my superiors, and the next day, I even issued a circular to criticize it. This makes me angry, what exactly does this unit let the officers and men do, whether it is solid training to improve combat effectiveness, or memorizing the leader's speech every day to improve memory. This time I said I didn't want to do anything, and this time I didn't tell anyone, I know, if I told Wang Ruoshi, Wang Ruoshi would definitely persuade me and talk about me. I had to follow my own path, so I wrote my own application for changing jobs and prepared to report my thoughts to the instructor. At this time, the reform work conference was held, and the curtain of the army's reform was slowly opened, and I once again saw hope, so I burned my application for demobilization and waited for the army's reform.
Three years after graduation, I had the idea of wanting to change jobs four times, and I can't help but say that my thoughts fluctuated greatly, but every time the idea of changing jobs was generated, it seemed to be related to the reality of the army, in fact, I really liked the army, I liked to be a soldier, I liked to be a soldier, I liked to fight, and I didn't like other messy things.
