With the sound of Beard's command, the entire wide playground quickly became empty, except for the facilities that had been ravaged beyond recognition.

Liu Zhi, who returned to the main hall of the battalion headquarters, had mixed feelings, glanced at his colleagues and subordinates who were sitting around the long table and exchanged experiences warmly, and just wanted to say a few words, he saw An Yi quietly come to the rear of his side.

An Yi whispered in Liu Zhi's ear to report the situation of Yang Bin's five people, and asked Liu Zhi to keep these five people in his model battalion and entrust them with important tasks, so that these five experienced middle and low-level officers could assist him in bringing the model battalion to a new height.

Liu Zhi shook his head slightly: "Xiao Yi, do you know that although I have the right to appoint the company-level commander of the division and battalion, I also need to report to the military department for the record, and ordinary personnel appointments and dismissals need to be cautious, not to mention the model battalion that has been set up by the principal himself and has become more and more prestigious?" This matter still needs to be considered in the long run, at least after serious discussion at the division headquarters meeting. ”

An Yi said with a smile: "Division, now that the expansion of the army is imminent, all departments lack middle and low-level officers with rich combat experience, such as our battalion, which now has four newly formed engineer companies, five combat companies, and two communication and logistics companies, which are enough to be organized into three battalions, and the appearance of Yang Bin and a few people can just make up for the shortcomings of our battalion, so that subordinates and officers and soldiers at all levels can get in touch with different strategies for governing the army, and review their own shortcomings, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages!"

Again, now that Deputy Commander Wang and Director Miao of our department have been declared missing by the General Headquarters, and the two divisions of our First Army on the Jiangxi battlefield have been handed over to General Bai Chongxi, Deputy Chief of General Staff, what will our army think? Other subordinates didn't dare to say it, but they only said that the commanders at all levels of the first division were definitely fluctuating and panicked, and the principal promoted Deputy Division Commander Wang Jun to acting division commander the day before yesterday, which made the First Division calm down a little. At present, the division has just been hit hard, and it is difficult to recover its vitality, who does our army not rely on you on the battlefield in Jiangxi? Not to mention the appointment of a couple of small battalion-level officers? ”

"This ...... These are two different things at all, and they can't be confused, understand, Xiao Yi? Liu Zhi shook his head, still disagreeing.

An Yi pulled his hair painfully, thought for a while, and solemnly pleaded: "Master, you ...... You listen to the subordinates explain that since the Northern Expedition, as long as it is an object that can be fought for, the principals have all been entrusted with important tasks in the past, such as Liu Zuolong's 15th Army, Lai Shihuang, He Yaozu and others' readers, all of whom have been promoted to a higher level and given reuse, and it is estimated that there will be many such examples. Why don't teachers follow the example of the headmaster? Could it be that the division seat has already equipped the model battalion under its subordinates with commanders at all levels? ”

Liu Zhi sighed slightly, and motioned for An Yi to sit beside him: "Xiao Yi, I understand your hardships, and I also see the hard work and excellent achievements you have made for the model battalion, and because of this, the status of the model battalion is completely different from any other regiment and battalion, and it is no exaggeration to say to you that your effective military training, management improvement, and endless achievements have attracted great attention from all sides, and the model battalion has gradually become the object of attention of the whole army. So I can't be cautious!

This morning, I politely rejected the request of the Training Department and the Political Department for research, and called them to tell them that the model camp is still in the process of recuperation, and it is too early to conduct research at this time, which means that you will have more time to adjust yourself. As you know, I have always attached great importance to the promotion and promotion of meritorious personnel of your model battalion, and I very much hope that the people who emerge from the model battalion will be able to take up the position of chief officers at all levels as soon as possible, and I will not approve of stuffing you with anyone at all, let alone rudely interfere with and restrain your good development.

The reason why I don't confirm the five people you mentioned is not that I doubt their abilities, and the ones who can make you An Yi look at them will not be mediocre people, but I am worried about the purity of the model camp, and I don't want to see you encounter some possible reproaches and some subtle obstruction in the future. ”

An Yi nodded gratefully: "I'm sorry, Master, my subordinates are too reckless...... However, the subordinates are really reluctant to leave these five people, two of them graduated from the seventh and eighth phases of the Baoding Military Academy, and the other two graduated from the Anhui Military Accelerated School, that is, the officer training system set up in the Zhejiang Jiangwutang, and the remaining one was originally a lecturer in history at Anhui Normal University. It's a pity that my subordinates have no fate with them......"

Liu Zhi looked at An Yi in surprise: "Ah...... I see, why didn't you tell me about their resumes earlier? Just tell me about their command skills and some superficial stuff...... Go and get people, and I'm going to see them myself...... Come back! Let your cook make good dishes, I will have a banquet for these five people tonight, especially two of them who graduated from the Baoding Military Academy, they are all friends of the same school, and they are in the same line, and I Liu Zhi can't snub them. ”

"Yes!"

An Yi forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart and calmly walked to the backyard, excited that his plan had succeeded.

As soon as An Yi left, Liu Zhi immediately called Xu Tingyao, Jiang Dingwen and Chen Jiji together and told everyone what An Yi said about the five people.

Jiang Dingwen, who was born in Jiangwutang, Zhejiang, was very surprised, and Chen Jiji, who also graduated from the second phase of the Baoding Military Academy with Liu Zhi, was overjoyed after being stunned, and Xu Tingyao immediately asked to meet these five people. After learning that An Yi had gone to invite, Xu Tingyao was very dissatisfied with the Political Section and Staff Section of the Division Headquarters responsible for the screening of prisoners.

Jiang Dingwen smiled and played a round game: "The brothers in the various departments of our division headquarters are too formal, and it is not surprising that they can't identify the officers in the captives, and many of the officers on the opponent are battle-hardened old fritters, who are good at camouflage and cunning. The model battalion is different, An Yi's subordinates have veteran ruffians who do not play cards according to the rules, each of these people has a pair of thief eyes, which can be seen from such a trivial matter as cleaning the battlefield: several times I cleaned the battlefield, I heard the low complaints of the officers and soldiers of each regiment, saying that as long as the old ruffians in the model battalion walked, others would not want to pick up any cheapest, and the one or two hundred old ruffians even looted the better belts on the corpses of the enemy soldiers, not to mention those enemy officers who had money and good things on their bodies, It would be nice if those officers had a decent pair of panties left! In addition, An Yi himself is full of whims and tricks, and it is normal for the officers in the captives to be found out by them, and it is not normal if they can't find out. ”

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and after discussing for a while, they saw An Yi bringing five young people wearing Anhui military uniforms, and immediately stood up politely and greeted them with a smile.

Yang Bin and the other five people were interrupted by An Yi in the midst of a heated discussion, and they all sat in the corner to see the competitive competition and training results test of the model camp in the afternoon, and their hearts were still immersed in extreme shock at this moment, and the seven terrifying figures were still deeply engraved in their minds and lingered.

Hearing An Yi say that his division commander Liu Zhi was invited, the five of them hurriedly stood up and followed An Yi to the hall with apprehension, and when they saw Liu Zhi and the others, they immediately strode forward and saluted respectfully.

Liu Zhi and the others politely returned the salute, and kindly beckoned the five of them to sit down, and got to know each other under An Yi's thoughtful introduction.

Liu Zhi and Chen Jiji inquired about Yang Bin and Lu Mingdi's mentorship, and after learning that Yang Bin's mentor was actually their mentor Liu Ruxian, they were full of emotion, and their attitudes towards these two juniors immediately changed significantly.

On the other side, Jiang Dingwen and Ye Cheng and Zhang Xiangong, who are also from Zhejiang, talked and laughed like old friends who had been reunited for a long time, Jiang Dingwen used his very distinctive Zhuji dialect to ask about the recent situation of those teachers and commanders in the martial arts hall, talking about the alma mater yesterday and today, the three of them sometimes sighed and sometimes laughed, where can you see that a few days ago each other was still a life-and-death opponent?

An Yi accompanied Qu Muchen to talk in a low voice, introduced to him the resumes and surnames of several of his superiors, as well as some information about his graduation from Huangpu, and humbly asked Qu Muchen about the establishment of the Anhui Army's Reading Force Regiment and the usual training methods, which made Qu Muchen very relieved while grateful, and strengthened his determination to stay and make a career.

After a while, Xu Tingyao, who graduated from the Yueben Army Non-commissioned Officer School, talked to the other four people for a while, and also participated in the conversation between An Yi and Qu Muchen with great interest, and learned that Fengxin was fighting fiercely, when Yang Bin, deputy of the regiment, and Lu Mingdi, commander of the third battalion, were guarding the east gate, Ye Cheng, a staff officer of the regiment, and Zhang Xiangong, the commander of the fourth battalion, were guarding the south gate, and Qu Muchen led the artillery company of the Reading Regiment to serve as a reserve.

"Fortunately, Wen Zhiwen, the commander of the fifth regiment, and Hui Dongsheng, the commander of the sixth regiment, don't have time to come to the defense of the inspection office today, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable, it is precisely because the five of you will guard the east and south directions of Fengxin City without leakage, so that they are at a loss in the battle of Fengxin."

An Yi saw everything in his eyes and was happy in his heart, he knew that through this meeting, Liu Zhi's mentality would definitely take a 180-degree turn.

In today's mainstream of the Chinese [***] world that generally pays attention to origin and origin, Liu Zhi, who values love and righteousness, is generous and stocky, and the Fengxin War made Liu Zhi fight very hard and pay a heavy price, he can better understand the true level and ability of these five people, and there will never be any more differences in the origin of the door, because the current senior generals of the revolutionary army are full of a large number of graduates of the Baoding Military Academy, including President Jiang, many senior generals who have returned from studying abroad are born in Baoding, a famous military school. Naturally, he will not reject the senior brothers who came over, and Jiang Dingwen, who plays a pivotal role in the personnel appointment and dismissal decision, and Ye Cheng are fellow villagers from the same source, Xu Tingyao also likes the polite Qu Muchen very much, and the two of them actually went from the Republic of China to the Han Dynasty Song Fu, and there is no need for An Yi to go through the back door of Jiang Dingwen and Xu Tingyao in private, and beg the two to do Liu Zhi's work for themselves.

In the evening, An Yi and Yang Bin, who sent Liu Zhi and others away, were still sitting in the spacious main hall, tasting fragrant tea and talking and laughing.

Yang Bin was still joking about the fact that Qu Muchen was almost asked by Xu Tingyao to pass, but Qu Muchen said seriously that he would stay in the model battalion if he didn't go anywhere, be the captain of the directly subordinate teaching team that was about to be established, and contribute his meager efforts to the improvement of the quality of the officers and soldiers of the model battalion.

An Yile listened to the conversation of the brothers, recalled everything today and the intimacy at the wine table, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and he once again clarified a truth:

No industry can avoid such and such unspoken rules, such as origin, mentorship, faction and regional complexes, and other factors. Today's military and business circles are essentially no different, and the fundamental role is still the deliberately ignored but looming ubiquitous interest factor, in a word, the battlefield is a shopping mall, in which the struggle, union, use, division, etc., the essence of the game is the same, the difference is only the means and the way of expression!
