Chapter Twenty-Nine: Defending the Homeland and the Country
In one of the city government offices, I met the military governor here, Jiang Quan.
To my surprise, this powerful officer in charge was only a lieutenant colonel, and he was in his thirties, with short lean hair, a tough appearance, and a straight military uniform.
After returning the salute, I didn't rush to speak, but sat there and looked at him quietly, not wanting to dry him, but not knowing how to speak. I know that I am just a policeman, and my temperament is somewhat similar to that of a soldier but far from it, and this situation is worse than being out of place, and if I don't do it well, it will cause him to be disgusted and dissatisfied. First impressions are very important, and before I came, I thought about how to make the most of this meeting, and thought of a few options, but I couldn't figure it out.
Jiang Quan didn't seem to care about this silence, his hands were upright on his knees, his eyes were not squinting, and the old monk was calm. Looking at his unusual style, my heart moved, and I suddenly asked, "Lieutenant Colonel Jiang, can you tell me about the current situation in the city?" ”
Hearing my question, Jiang Quanquan stood up suddenly, took out a file bag from his briefcase, and handed it over with both hands, "Report assistant, this is a summary of all the establishment information, including the information of officers above the company level, please take a look!" ”
I didn't expect him to react like this, I was a little stunned, and then said, "Major Jiang, don't be so nervous, just treat it as a private occasion, let's just talk." ”
"Yes!" Jiang Quan saluted, took a step back and sat down quickly, and put his hand on his lap again.
I wasn't sure if he was such a rigid person or deliberately gave me a dismissal, so I had to shake my head and look through the information in my hand.
This look immediately surprised me, although Chang'an is large, but it has shrunk to a fairly small range, just such a small place, there is a group army, such a powerful force, led by such a small major, it is indeed a bit incredible.
I was tempted to ask him what was going on, but I held back the thought and decided to see. After all, asking questions as soon as I get my hands on the document seems that I am too shallow, and I am afraid that I will be despised by others. In this way, I was relieved that the information of the officers above the company level in the back was pitiful, and the establishment was said to be a group army, but in fact it had been greatly reduced, and it was not even half of a B-level group army, and the largest number of them was an infantry division, the real main armor and anti-aircraft artillery and ground artillery, and the top breaking sky was a battalion-level unit, and the anti-chemical battalion was a full-fledged formation, but in terms of the officers' information, most of them were transferred from the direct team, and at first glance it was the result of the promotion in the line of fire.
After reading the information about it, I had a point in my heart, and gently put the document on the table, "Commander Jiang, I didn't expect our strength to be so strong. ”
"Report, the group army was heavily damaged during the cataclysm, and less than one-third remained, and the group army is not worthy of its name!"
"Hehe, Commander Jiang is very realistic, I don't know what position you held before you became the commander?"
"Report, former head of the teaching group!"
I nodded, this Jiang Quan is definitely not a mediocre person, he can be the head of the teaching regiment at this age, and he is also one of the best in the whole army, if there is no such thing, it should be no problem to be a general.
"Commander Jiang, I would like to hear your views on your duties, and I hope you can tell your thoughts truthfully." I leaned back, watching his expression.
Jiang Quan's expression did not change, his waist straightened and he was about to stand up again, I hurriedly stopped, "Sit and say!" ”
"Yes!" He still stood up and saluted before quickly sitting down.
"My duty is to protect my family and defend the country, and expand the territory and expand the ......," Jiang Quan said halfway through and found that something was wrong, and he couldn't say it anymore.
"Defend the country and expand the territory?" I almost laughed, but I still asked with a straight face, "Where is the country?" Where is home? Do you have the ability to expand your territory? ”
"Report, home and country in my heart!" Jiang Quan is also a clever person, not to mention the expansion of territory.
I owe a debt and don't look at him, "Where is Lieutenant Colonel Jiang from?" ”
"Xichuan people!"
"Nishikawa? It's not close to here, is it? It seems that the Bao family can't count on you anymore. As for the country, I believe you also understand that the country is no longer that country! "I feel that I can't put words into words, and I find myself annoying.
Sure enough, the corners of Jiang Quan's mouth twitched imperceptibly, it seemed that he was provoked by me, but although my words were crooked, they were also in line with the actual situation, and it was not easy to refute them for a while.
"We'll talk about this later, what is the current situation of the army's defense?"
"The main task now is to strengthen the security of the periphery of the city and the security of the city!" Jiang Quan was really angry, and he didn't say anything about the report.
I smiled, "All the security is in charge, what are the police doing?" ”
"By the time of the cataclysm, the police had already run out!" Jiang Quan's tone was a little soft.
"Oh? Why is the army still there, and the police are running out? Did Gega erupt from the city at that time? "I was intrigued and unconsciously deviated from my intention to talk.
"Residents rioted against the epidemic, the army fought against Gega outside, and some of the police, armed police and fire brigades died, and some became epidemic people!"
"Is that so?" I was a little moved, but soon calmed down again, I can't bear to know how many heroic deeds are here, but now things can't be delayed.
"Let's not talk about this yet." I waved my hand, "Although there are not many troops left, but with such a small defense area, you should be very idle, right?" ”
"Although there are few people in the army, the equipment is overstaffed, and the daily maintenance and training of the team are also very busy!" Jiang Quandao.
"As far as I know, the defense pressure of the city is mainly borne by the epidemic people outside the city, I don't know what is the point of deploying troops?" My tone grew sharper and sharper.
Jiang Quan was finally enraged, and stood up with a pout, "Our defense is to prevent the epidemic people from entering the city, if they break in, the consequences will be the same as Gejia entering the city!" ”
I smiled, "Commander Jiang, don't get excited, sit down and say, we're just chatting!" ”
"Chat, I think you're slandering our troops!" Jiang Quan's voice was loud.
I laughed again, "I can be responsible for everything I say, there is absolutely no falsehood, I don't know why Commander Jiang thinks I am slandering you?" ”
"You!" Jiang Quan's eyebrows were raised, but he couldn't say anything.
"Calm down and drink a glass of water." I stood up and poured him a glass of water, because there is no waste of water in the city, so the water in the office is all boiled in an electric kettle.
While pouring water, I asked, "Has there ever been such a thing as the epidemic people returning to the city?" ”
"Almost every day, mostly with relatives in the city." Jiang Quanqiang calmed down.
"How do you deal with it?"
"There is a warning 300 meters away from the cordon, enter 100 meters and start shouting warnings, three warnings and shoot directly without stopping!"
