174. Lao Xu was punished
When the two chiefs heard that Jiang Tao was worried about the shortage of ammunition and fuel supplies, they asked the staff officers beside them: "Haven't these supplies been arranged, and where are they now?" ”
The staff officer report said: "All the supplies have been loaded yesterday afternoon, it is estimated that they should be arriving soon, and we have also taken into account safety issues, and we have specially arranged two warships to escort them!" ”
Jiang Tao took over the conversation and said: "It is estimated that I have encountered a sniper, I have already sent a plane to answer it, and it is estimated that there will be news soon." ”
At this time, Huang Xin came over and reported: "Report to Captain Jiang, just now the drone found that our freighter and two escort warships exchanged fire with the enemy, fortunately the drone arrived in time, and now the enemy's two warships have been sunk by us, and the freighter will soon enter the port!" ”
Commander Xu and Commander Wang glanced at each other and breathed a long sigh of relief, in fact, these were all expected by Jiang Tao, but they had just been inserted by the guy named Song Ping, and they almost missed a big incident!
Jiang Tao said expressionlessly: "Chief, what's the matter with that Song Ping?" I think the two of you are going to unload the mill and kill the donkey, shouldn't we also be allowed to finish the work! If I hadn't just dealt with it decisively, something would have happened! "Jiang Tao knows in his heart that our naval strength at this time is really too weak, although it is said that we have sent two warships to escort the escort, but the tonnage is too small, where can it be compared with other people's warships!
At this time, Commander Xu's face turned pale, and he asked in a deep voice, "What about this kid?" ”
Jiang Tao didn't answer, but walked away, the atmosphere at the scene was very depressing, Zhou Qiming and Tang Zheng came over, Zhou Qiming replied: "Report to the chief, Song Ping was locked in the room downstairs by us!" All members of the team were disarmed! I took the lead in doing this, and I didn't have anything to do with Captain Jiang, if the superiors punished me, they would punish me! ”
Commander Xu went downstairs without saying a word. Commander Wang walked up to Jiang Tao and comforted: "You blame Lao Xu for this matter, you don't have to worry, the above will investigate clearly, you still have to finish the work now, hurry up to your command position!" ”
Jiang Tao stood for a while, tried to calm down, turned around, and said to Zhou Qiming and Tang Zheng: "The two of you will arrange team members, cooperate with the ground crew who have just arrived, seize the time to refuel and hang up the planes returning from the airport, and continue to launch a second round of attacks on the No. 1 target!" ”
Zhou Qiming and Tang Zheng responded in unison: "Yes! ”
Then, on the airport and wharf, there were cargo ships and helicopters in place, and the road from the airport to the wharf was quickly cleared, and at noon, the new combat system had been built, Jiang Tao changed into his civilian clothes, and came to Commander Wang's temporary office, Jiang Tao knocked on the door, and Commander Wang's guard opened the door, "Instructor Jiang, please come in!" ”
Jiang Tao came to the chief's side and said, "Chief, this task has been completed, should I be let go back?" ”
Commander Wang looked up at Jiang Tao and said, "Is this playing with a child's temper?" ”
Jiang Tao said calmly: "No! I'm going back, and I've got a bunch of people to eat! My family thought I was missing! ”
Commander Wang got up and walked back and forth in the room, and said after a long time: "Song Ping's matter has been investigated clearly, and the superiors are also very angry, the person has been taken away by the Military Justice Department, according to military discipline, he is enough to be shot, and his father has also been suspended for further investigation!" However, I just received the news that their old man died of a heart attack! ”
Jiang Tao was stunned, Commander Wang continued: "As a party to the incident, we can completely understand your feelings, the superior leaders have also given you a high degree of praise for this collective, Lao Xu has also been punished, he should indeed bear the responsibility of negligence in employing people, you kid is what I watched grow up, protecting you is the only thing I have to do, just now the old man Zeng called and criticized me fiercely, we are indeed in a hurry, next, the army may have to repair for a while." ”
Jiang Tao walked to the side of the sofa and sat down, the guard brought Jiang Tao a glass of water, and said apologetically: "Instructor Jiang, I'm sorry, I haven't made tea yet, so you can drink some of it!" ”
Jiang Tao said: "Thank you!" ”
At this time, Commander Xu came in, followed by a person familiar to Jiang Tao.
"I said Xu Fatzi, how did you lead the troops to fight? When parents hand over their children to you, do you do that? I'm going to sue you up! ”
Commander Wang hurriedly went over and persuaded: "Lao Huang! Just say a word! Lao Xu is not feeling good now! ”
Commander Xu said angrily: "You let him say it!" I have nothing to say! ”
The person who came was General Huang, followed by Huang Xin, who was blocking General Huang from continuing, seeing Jiang Tao here, he didn't continue to speak, General Huang also saw Jiang Tao's existence, walked straight over, and said loudly: "Boy, yes, I underestimated you, I apologize to you for my attitude towards you at the beginning, everyone thinks that I am resentful because my nephew died in this southwest frontier, and they also underestimate me Huang, how many general's children are in this jungle, and they have fallen forever, You kid now know, right? How many shameless people like Song Ping are there in our team, they are just here to make personal political capital, gilded, and bold! What makes people feel even more sad is that the leading comrades of some of our important departments have also opened the door to great convenience! Complicity! If it weren't for your boy's timely handling today, one of our fleets and one of our large freighters would have been wiped out! As a veteran, I salute you! ”
Having said this, where can Jiang Tao sit still, he hurriedly got up and returned the salute, and said in a loud voice: "Chief, you are serious, I just did what a soldier should do!" ”
General Huang continued: "Your kid is not only a general, but also a handsome talent! Although leading soldiers to fight a war must have the spirit of dedication that is not afraid of death, we must not treat the lives of soldiers as child's play! Our team needs commanders like you! ”
Commander Wang stopped General Huang's words: "Okay, Lao Huang! Just say a few words! Lao Xu is responsible in this matter, but how can he stop Lao Xu alone? As you said, there are not a few young masters like Song Ping, so what can you do if you just rely on him Lao Xu? I'm not excusing him, it's inevitable that there will be a few black sheep in these hundreds of thousands of troops, and the important thing is how to clean up these people now and prevent this kind of thing from happening again! ”
"Lao Wang, you are not bad, I will serve you, not only is you about to retire, but also insist on running back and forth on the front line, the key is that all your soldiers are good!"
At this time, Huang Xin spoke: "Dad! Don't talk about Commander Xu anymore, you don't know in the organ, while the chief is dealing with a large number of troop affairs on the front line every day, there are many calls asking for help and intercession coming in every day, and I have been criticized several times for tirelessly. However, the person who can make the call to this southwest front command is an ordinary person? ”
Jiang Tao asked in surprise, "Your father?" ”
Huang Xin lowered his head embarrassedly and said softly: "I'm sorry, Instructor Jiang, I didn't mean to hide it from you, my dad and he are a veteran!" ”
Jiang Tao turned around and stood up to the old general, a standard salute! "I'm sorry, chief, I blame you, your whole family, you have paid too much for this war!"
