Chapter 1406: Speech at the Mobilization Meeting
In addition to the personnel on duty normally, all the soldiers of the two Marine Brigades and the relevant subordinate units assembled in the large playground of the Lunan Special Warfare Training Base. The reason why the Lunan Special Warfare Training Base was chosen is that this base has been officially assigned to the use of the Marine Corps.
In the large playground that can accommodate tens of thousands of personnel, more than 7,000 officers and men of the Marine Corps set off from various barracks immediately after breakfast through troop carriers, youth buses, iveco, and other commuter vehicles, and arrived on time at the Lunan special operations training base to participate in the mobilization meeting for the reorganization and expansion.
The various units were running like parts of a precision machine, and the assembly was completed punctually at 8:40, all of them carrying field folding benches and sitting down in a dense formation like sculptures.
Ma Qicai stared at the back of Li Shaodong's head and whispered to him, "Hey, Shaodong, have heard about it, the chief of staff of our Marine Corps Headquarters is Instructor Li." You say the chief of staff or the brigade commander. ”
Li Shaodong didn't move, his voice came slightly, and said, "Of course, it is the chief of staff of the Marine Corps Command, this command is in charge of all the Marine Corps troops, what is the brigade commander." ”
"The demon instructor of our recruit company is a real cow!" Ma Qicai was very excited.
The company commander walked down briskly from above, and quickly suppressed his voice and admonished, "Listen to me, today's mobilization meeting is the first military meeting held by Chief of Staff Li since he took office, and all the two brigades of the Marine Corps and the relevant subordinate units participated. I tell you, today is the knife, and you can keep this position until the end of the mobilization meeting!"
"Company commander, what should I do if I need to urinate?" Ma Qicai asked.
The company commander glared at him and said, "Hold back Lao Tzu! It's! You have to pull it in your crotch too!"
"Haven't you heard of holding urine for a day and holding stool for three days?" said the veteran sitting behind Ma Qicai coldly.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone paid great attention to it.
As a matter of fact, they saw the nervous expressions of the company commander's instructors when they got up and began to assemble, and they already realized how important today's mobilization meeting was.
"Straighten up Lao Tzu's waist!" the company commander reprimanded, and suddenly the team was much higher.
What kind of generals lead what kind of soldiers.
Senior Colonel Li Mu, the first chief of staff of the Marine Corps Command, who never talked about pomp and circumstance, strode onto the familiar platform in a marine camouflage uniform, and his attire was the same as everyone's. Li Mu listed the mobilization meeting as a military activity, so he all wore camouflage uniforms and small hats and belts to participate.
Chief of Staff Li Mu's domineering style is undoubtedly revealed.
He strode up to the microphone, and he specifically instructed that the microphone for speaking must stand there, not the leader sitting there to speak.
The loudspeakers around the four sides that were erected last night could completely transmit the leader's speech to the ears of every officer and soldier with great clarity.
The duty leader of the Marine Corps Command is Yang Jun.
With a wireless microphone in hand, he ran to the command position in a standard running position and gave the command: "Stand up!"
"Look to the right - Qi!"
All officers and men have been given explanations, and when they are on duty to lead the whole team, they will keep their positions still, and other actions will be done according to the standards. Because the queue at this time has been adjusted by all the cadres together, it is extremely neat, and if the position moves again, it will cause the team to lose its uniformity.
"On-look!"
"Take a break!"
"Stand up ......!"
Yang Jun tidied up his team, turned back, and then ran towards the platform, stood up and saluted, and reported into the wireless microphone: "Report to Comrade Chief of Staff! In addition to the personnel on duty on normal duty, the number of marines participating in the mobilization meeting for reorganization and expansion should be XXXX people! Please instruct!"
Li Mu returned the salute, full of energy, and his voice was calm, "Sit down." ”
"Yes!"
Yang Jun turned back and ran back to the command position, and gave the command, "Sit!"
The team sat down in unison, and then did not move, and the team of thousands of people was very spectacular!
Li Mu glanced at the entire team, his mood was very surging, this was his troops, and he finally waited for a powerful military combat force that would be far larger than a group army in the future.
Standing in this position, he has a completely different position as a regiment commander and division commander in the past - I have strong self-confidence and lofty ideals in the world!
"Brethren!"
Li Mu began to speak, and he did not call the officers and soldiers comrades, but brothers, and suddenly narrowed the distance between him and the officers and soldiers.
"I'm so proud of you, I'm so proud of you!"
The thunderous applause of the officers and men almost shook the US satellite in space!
"Since 1953, our Marine Corps has gone through XX years of history. In these long and short years, we have experienced the setbacks of the landing operation on Kinmen Island, and we have also won the glory of the counterattack operation on Nanhai Zhudao. Since 2001, all the amphibious reconnaissance battalions of the First Fleet and the Second Fleet have been transferred in, and a naval special operations regiment has been established on Hainan Island. Since 2010, we have successfully carried out 26 batches of escort missions! In 2015, we successfully carried out the first operation in the history of the Navy to directly dock at the ports of other countries to evacuate overseas Chinese!
Li Mu took a deep breath, his voice became low, and the speed of his speech gradually softened, "Brothers, the Marine Corps has experienced setbacks and glory, and in the past few decades, we have lost nearly a thousand comrades-in-arms forever in open and non-public military operations. The glory on our heads now is what they have returned with their flesh and blood. The territorial integrity of the motherland and the safety of the lives and property of overseas Chinese were brought back by them at the cost of sacrificing themselves. ”
"The masses of the people don't know how much you have paid, but you know it in your hearts!"
Taking another deep breath, the leaders sitting on the stage almost felt that Chief of Staff Li was going crazy.
Li Mu glanced at the troops and said in a deep voice, "I have only been in the post of Chief of Staff of the Marine Corps Command for three days. In the past three days, through various channels, I have heard some grumbling that some officers and men are resistant to the reorganization and expansion, including your individual leaders!"
"At a time when other branches of the navy are carrying out drastic reforms and reorganizations to adapt themselves to changes in the new military situation and strive for stronger combat effectiveness, our Marine Corps, as a sharp knife in the naval unit and the only offensive force moving from sea to land, has become resistant to the reorganization and expansion!
Thunder rolled in the sky, and the first rain of the summer came, at ten o'clock in the morning. The rain was sparse and sparse, and crackling beans rained down.
The troops did not move.
Su Xiaobing held an umbrella and walked over quickly to cover Li Mu's head, Li Mu didn't look at it, pushed him away, and Su Xiaobing had to retreat.
The rain soon soaked Li Mu's little hat, and the rain rolled down the brim.
When the leaders sitting in the back saw this scene, they all motioned to the secretaries to take their umbrellas to the side.
"My secretary wrote me a speech, three points after three points, from the big aspects to the small aspects, from the high-level strategic decisions to the needs of the troops' operational objectives and tactics, sprinkled with more than 10,000 words. I'm not going to use it, and I'm not going to say that kind of empty talk to you. ”
"At today's mobilization meeting, I don't plan to let other leaders speak, what I say today, you will implement it for me. I will not follow you for nothing, the work of reorganizing and expanding the Marine Corps must be unswervingly carried out in accordance with the plan. Whoever has a complaint, hold it back, whoever has an opinion, I'll let you go back!"
The leaders in the rainstorm looked at each other, and the officers and soldiers in the rainstorm were full of enthusiasm.
Li Mu spoke for an hour without pause like a bandit leader, and when the rain stopped, he ordered all troops to disband and bring them back.
This mobilization meeting took everyone by surprise.
