The meeting room of the Dragon Group was filled with smoke, and there were nearly twenty general-level senior officials sitting there. They came from various military districts, including several garrison districts. Some are here to support their favorite generals, while others are here to gain experience and learn the highest level of confrontation in the army.
But without exception, their focus was on the dispute between Dragon Team Captain Jiang Qing and tactician Wei Jiang. As for the group of veterans led by Xiao Zheng—
No one denies Xiao Zheng's military talents. Although he did not have many opportunities to display his talents during the two years he was in the Long Live Army, everyone here believes that if Xiao Zheng had not committed any crime and was dismissed, his current influence and popularity in the army would be Definitely not inferior to Wei Jiang. Even entering the dragon group is easy.
Of course, Xiao Zheng is currently making a name for himself in the military. He also entered the dragon group, and even directly entered the management team, with the aura of an honorary instructor above his head. It's just that he took the wild road, even the back door. You didn't get through formal channels.
For thousands of years, China has paid attention to a right name, and Xiao Zheng has the status and influence it has today. It really lacks a chance to clear its name.
Today's fall drill is an opportunity.
An opportunity provided by General Qi!
A chance to prove your skills to the entire army!
No need to win. As long as they can create a living space between the two powerful teams, they can lead the veterans to a beautiful offensive battle. It's victory. It's more eye-catching than winning the championship.
"Old Jiang. Your beloved disciple comes on stage in person. You can't just watch and not place bets, right?" An old general with eagle-like eyebrows took a puff of cigarette and looked at General Jiang with a smile.
"No less." General Jiang has not been so excited for many years.
Xiao Zheng leads a team that is about to retreat to the second line. It looked like the resources were mismatched and there wasn't any chance of winning. He was even rated as a troublemaker by the generals. But what Xiao Zheng lacked was always just an opportunity.
He did not expect Xiao Zheng to win this actual battle. As long as he could perform well in the tough battle, his future in the military would be bright.
The position of dragon group instructor. From a certain perspective, it was a negotiation and compromise between him and General Qi. General Qi needs Xiao Zheng. General Jiang wants to fight for a new future for Xiao Zheng. It's perfect to use the dragon group as a springboard.
"It's really boring." The Eagle General shook his head and took a sip of strong tea. "Everyone, I am optimistic about Wei Jiang this time. In terms of experience and qualifications, he can be regarded as Jiang Qing's predecessor. In terms of tactical use, he is also considered a genius player. Although Jiang Qing is not weak, he has the support of the dragon group warriors. But he must Winning this exercise is difficult.”
He explained the battle situation, and then pointed to the sand table on his desk: "I firmly believe that at noon at most, the Dragon Group will be completely wiped out and Wei Jiang will be cornered."
General Qi sneered again and again: "Old Peng, Wei Jiang is your favorite general. But here you are still talking in official style and saying some high-sounding words. Is that enough?"
General Ying chuckled and said, "Old Qi. I'm just telling the truth. I don't mean to look down on the dragon team. Besides, your dragon team has won ten championships in a row, so it doesn't matter if you lose one game, right?"
"The Dragon Group is the highest martial arts hall in the entire army. I have never lost, and I will never lose." General Qi lit a cigarette and said calmly. "Instead of discussing how well Jiang Qing and Wei Jiang can fight here, let's see how Xiao Zheng will perform in this actual battle."
"Yes. Xiao Zheng does have some military talents. If he brings a good army and generals, it will indeed affect the outcome to a great extent. But this is also the reason why we accept the formation of three teams this year. Limit his troops." General Eagle Smile slightly. "He is the instructor of the Dragon Group after all. He must have strong generals in his hands. If he is biased, wouldn't Wei Jiang be one against two?"
After a pause, General Ying continued: "In my opinion, even if Xiao Zheng commanded it properly, he would probably lose more than half of the troops in the first confrontation, and then he would fight guerrillas to delay the situation, which would make it difficult to influence the overall situation. Even Han Xin couldn't order troops. The more the merrier. No matter how talented Xiao Zheng is, if he has no soldiers at his disposal, what kind of trouble can he make?"
The generals in the conference room were divided into two groups. One group was optimistic about Wei Jiang. He also pointed at Wei Jianghui's military districts to vent his anger. On the other side, led by General Jiang and General Qi, they relied on strength to speak for themselves. Let past records speak for itself. Neither praise nor kill. impartial.
Seeing his beloved disciple being ridiculed by General Eagle, General Jiang, who had always been a good old man, snorted: "Although I don't like to boast, Wei Jiang wants to defeat Xiao Zheng's team. It is absolutely impossible without paying a small price." After a pause. , General Jiang, who has outstanding military talents, continued. "Lao Peng. Leading troops to fight does not rely entirely on military strength. Command, morale, and dispatch are all indispensable. Otherwise, how could there be so many typical examples in history of using less to win more?"
General Ying smiled slightly and did not quarrel with General Jiang. He was convinced of General Jiang's ability to lead troops. Although his military rank is lower than others. But his prestige in the military department is extremely high. Many of the leading figures of the Young Zhuang Sect were created by him. It’s okay not to accept it.
Furthermore, the reason why he had a fight with General Qi was not out of malice, but because he had been aggrieved for many years and wanted to regain his place. It is healthy competition. There was no conflict with General Jiang, so why should he be so embarrassed
How can someone who holds an important position or high position in the military have no skills and only know how to run amok
"We'll just wait and see." General Qi took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile. "Although Wei Jiang is excellent, the soldiers I lead are not vegetarians."
…
The exercise started on time at 9:30 am. There is no time limit, if you can’t finish the fight, you will fight all night. Judging from the physical strength of this group of super soldiers, even if they fight for three days and three nights, there will be no problem.
However, based on past experience, this military's highest-level land battle can basically end before dinner.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the soldiers of each team had breakfast together in the Long Group cafeteria. Before even entering the battlefield, the atmosphere was solemn and solemn. Not to mention their respective formations, even though the veterans led by Xiao Zheng and the elites under Jiang Qing were both in the dragon group. Unusually, there was no communication today. Even if they meet face to face, they deliberately avoid looking at each other. Show a tough attitude.
The soldiers were in separate formations, but the three captains were arranged by their superiors to dine at the same table. Subtle and intriguing.
Wei Jiang is thirty-two years old. The rank of colonel. He and Jiang Qing are both young leading military officers. He is highly regarded in the military and his future is bound to be bright. Xiao Zheng also gained the rank of major. But he has no soldiers and no actual command authority. It basically belongs to Qingshui Yamen, if you can't get outstanding results. In the future, we will only become further and further apart from these two people, and have no intersection with each other.
Wei Jiang, who had a resolute expression, took a sip of the porridge and glanced at Xiao Zheng with an emotionless face. His thin lips pursed slightly: "Instructor Xiao. Once we get to the position, please be more sensible. Just do your job as a green leaf. Don't think nonsense. Maybe in this way, I will save some face for you."
