Chapter 162: All things to come to fruition

I screamed in shock:

"Really? That's good! But it would be even better if we both fell out!"

Captain Zhu said seriously:

"Xiao Lu, don't say that. How can organizational decisions be regarded as a joke? Change them at will? You should believe in yourself. Since your superiors have asked you to be the chief of staff, it proves that you have this ability. In fact, I also think you are the best candidate for the chief of staff of this conceptual force."

I smiled and said:

"Haha, understand! I will definitely keep your instructions in mind!"

Captain Zhu couldn't help but smile:

"What instructions are not given? I used to be your regiment commander, but now we are at the same level. And you are already the chief of staff of the Thunder Brigade. My deputy regiment commander has not even given the order! I will be acting here for the time being until my successor takes office!"

When I said the successor, I remembered the serious business and asked:

"By the way, the leader, who will I hand over my job? Haha, in fact, I haven't been in office for a few days, but I still have to leave the program. Otherwise, what if there is any problem in the future, what should I do if everyone refuses to admit it?"

Captain Zhu said with a smile:

"You go and hand over to Deputy Leader Li! Now that we have transferred from our group, Lao Chen and I have been demoted again, and there is a serious shortage of leading cadres!"

I nodded and said:

"Haha, then I'll be busy with the important business first, and we'll talk if we have time!"

"Go! After finishing your work, I'll get the documents. The instructions from my superiors about the construction stage of the Thunder Brigade, and I'll get here together with your transfer order."

I nodded and went directly to find Deputy Commander Li to hand over the work. Although I didn't work for a long time, it was still quite troublesome to hand over. All kinds of documents had to be counted - losing the secret is a serious crime! This is also the most important part of the handover, as well as some of the business equipment in my office, office keys, car keys, etc. As for the specific work precautions, I have nothing to explain - after all, I was admitted to the hospital after a few days of taking office.

After everything was done, I returned to the regiment commander's office again. I first looked at my transfer order. The general meaning was that Lu Changfeng, the former chief of staff of the xxx regiment, was transferred to serve as chief of staff of the xx regiment, and presided over the construction of the brigade. I read it roughly and then picked up a few instructions. This was sent to our brigade in the name of the group army. However, I was the first to determine the leader of the brigade - the leader of the brigade and the political commissar were still considering the superiors - I was also responsible for the preliminary preparations of the brigade, so these instructions were also sent to our brigade.

I roughly browsed them and put them in briefcases. After returning to Fuzhou, I read them carefully! But I still read a general look. The superiors of the brigade's garrison took great pains to choose the site and finally chose the garrison of a certain Navy in Cangshan District. This was used to be a division-level unit, but after the Fuzhou Military Region was withdrawn, the troops gradually shrank. Now there is only one battalion stationed in an empty camp. This time, through the headquarters coordination, the group army found another garrison for this battalion, and the military camp in Cangshan District was assigned to our garrison, which will be our future base camp.

The Armed Police Engineer Corps, which was carrying out early construction, has entered Cangshan, and one aspect of my mission is to assist the Armed Police Force in the construction of some infrastructure in advance.

Another instruction is about the equipment issue of our brigade. This needs to be studied in a concentrated manner after the main leading cadres are basically in place, and then proposed a plan to the superiors, and then the experts can only issue the troops. After all, most of these equipment are distributed to the troops for the first time, so I can not consider this issue for the time being.

The last instruction was about personnel allocation, which pointed out that the candidates for cadres below the battalion were determined by the brigade, but we could only give a series of standards, such as what level of military quality should be achieved, the requirements for academic qualifications, what kind of employment experience have been, etc. Then we report these standards to the General Political Department, and the General Political Department will draw cadres to form a brigade cadre team based on the standards we gave across the entire army. This shows the degree of importance attached by superiors to our brigade - in the past, the establishment of new units was at most selected within the scope of large units, and it was rare for the entire army to draw in such a way.

Seeing that I had packed the documents, Captain Zhu said with a smile:

"Chief Staff Lu, we just welcomed you not long ago, and we are coming to see you off tonight! Go back to the dormitory and have a rest. I will ask Staff He to go to Ding Hotel. We will stay drunk with you tonight!"

I quickly said:

"Captain Zhu, it's not possible today! I...hehe, I came with my girlfriend. After finishing my work, I will enjoy the beautiful night view of Xiamen with her! Let's do this! I'll treat you next time I have the chance!"

Captain Zhu said with a smile:

"So my brother and sister are here too! Then we old men won't join in the fun! But don't forget to find us when we come to Xiamen next time! The political commissar went to the grassroots level to hold a political work on-site meeting today. Before leaving, he specifically told you to greet you!"

I nodded and said:

"I will definitely come back to see everyone. Captain Zhu, you will still be in the group for a while. I think there will be a chance!"

Captain Zhu smiled and nodded. I thought about it and said:

"Captain, then I will leave first. I will not say goodbye to everyone one by one. We will return to Fuzhou after dinner in Xiamen. I will start working tomorrow!"

Captain Zhu said, "Go quickly! Brother and sister should wait and be anxious, haha!"

When she returned to the dormitory, the careful Xiaoying had already packed my simple luggage. When she saw me coming in, she smiled sweetly and said:

"I'm back! You're exhausted! Sit down and rest for a while!"

I saw a little sweat on Xiaoying's forehead who had been packing things. I walked over with heartache, reached out and gently wiped her sweat, and said:

"Silly girl, why don't you take a break after having been in the car for so long! You can wait for me to come back to pack your luggage together!"

Xiaoying heard my love, and she smiled mischievously:

"I can't wait to see the scenery of Xiamen with you, and your place is so simple, you can pack it up in just a few seconds!"

I gently touched her face and said with a smile:

"Silly girl, let's go! Go out for supper!"

Xiaoying agreed happily, I picked up my backpack, dragged a small suitcase, and went downstairs with Xiaoying. When I arrived at the bottom of the building, I did not forget to hand over the keys to the sentry not far away and asked him to return it to the logistics department. I put my luggage into the trunk of the car, and drove away from the xx regiment station with Xiaoying.

We didn't have fun this night, but just had a decent dinner in a restaurant that looked good, and then took Xiaoying to Gulangyu to listen to the sound of waves for a while. I stood in Gulangyu and looked at Dadan Island dozens of miles away. I felt endless melancholy in my heart. For a soldier, the biggest shame was that I could not enter the territory of my country...

Since it took several hours to rush back to Fuzhou, we hurriedly left Gulangyu and drove back to Fuzhou overnight. After sending Xiaoying home, I also drove back to the villa. Under the soft light of the study, I carefully studied several instructions from the superiors on the preliminary construction of the brigade, and deeply felt the importance of the superiors' heads to our brigade. Many specific operational issues were repeatedly raised in the instructions, and several documents covered almost all aspects of the preparation work, and they thought of many things that I had not thought of.

After carefully reading a few documents, I rubbed my sore eyes, got up to wash and sleep. Tomorrow is a brand new beginning for me. I will realize my dream and command a concept army composed of elites in the army. Although I am only conducting preliminary preparations, I must ensure that I start the first day of work in the best state. So although I was very excited, I still lie down resolutely and activate the dragon's true energy. Soon my heart became as calm as water, and in a while I entered a deep sleep...

At six o'clock in the morning, the biological clock formed by long-term military life was useless because of my month-long hospitalization. I woke up on time. I jumped out of bed, washed up quickly, and had a simple breakfast. I started my first day of my tenure in Thunder Brigade in a full spirit.

I drove the car and soon arrived at the base of a certain unit of the former Navy. As soon as the car arrived at the door, a sentry stopped me. I pulled the car aside and said to the little armed police soldier:

"Comrade, I am the chief of staff of the xx brigade. This is my transfer order!"

The little soldier carefully inspected the transfer order and my officer certificate, then saluted me and said:

"Chief Staff Lu, please come in!"

After I smiled and collected the transfer order and officer certificate, I asked the location of the office of their detachment leader, and then walked into the camp on foot. The future control of the Thunder Brigade will definitely be very strict. As the chief of staff of the brigade, I cannot take the lead in violating the regulations and driving local licensed vehicles into the camp!

I walked to the office of the captain of the Armed Police Engineering Forces. I raised my hand and knocked on the door. Someone inside said loudly:

"Please come in!"

I pushed the door open and went in. An armed police colonel sat in the office. He looked up and saw me coming in. His eyes showed a look of surprise. I walked forward with a smile and said:

"Hello, are you the captain of the detachment? I am Lu Changfeng, the chief of staff of the xx brigade!"

The colonel's eyes were even more surprised. After seeing my order and officer certificate, he shook hands enthusiastically with me and said:

"I am Lu Yuntian, the captain of the detachment here. Speaking of which, you are still my own family, haha! I didn't expect Chief of Staff Lu to be so young! He is so terrifying!"

I humbled a few words and went straight to the topic:

"Captain Lu, thank you very much for your help! I think we can find time to discuss the focus of the next step of work. At present, the staff of our brigade are not in place, and a lot of work is waiting for me to do. Maybe you have to worry more about infrastructure."

Lu Yuntian said with a smile:

"This is our job, Xiao Lu, you don't have to be so polite! By the way, you talk about personnel issues. Several cadres have already reported to you yesterday. Maybe they are helping with your work. I told them that your leaders have not been in place yet, so I will arrange a place for them to live!"

I naturally knew about this, but I didn't expect that the staff would be in place so soon. I was overjoyed and said:

"Then please come and find them! By the way, we need a house as a temporary office space. You are more familiar with this place than me, so let me arrange it."

Lu Yuntian smiled and said:

"No problem! I found that there are no other places here, but there are many empty houses. Haha, I really don't know why a battalion-level unit used to live in such a large yard? I guess most of their working hours every day were cleaning the camp. This place is too big!"

I couldn't help laughing. When I entered the door, I found that this camp covers a vast area. It was indeed a waste of money to be stationed in a battalion, but it was just right for us Thunder Brigade. I was already planning where to build a comprehensive training ground and where to open a modern shooting range...

Under Lu Yuntian's arrangement, a squadron of armed police soldiers soon came to help me clean up an old office building. Several cadres transferred in the early stage also met me. The unit had just been formed, so it was naturally incomplete. I arranged a lot of work for each person. Although some of their transfer orders were transferred to the brigade political department and some were in the logistics department, now that the brigade leaders are not in place, they are naturally unified by my leadership.

After the work arrangement was completed, I realized that I was nothing. I thought about it. The unit had just been established, so the first thing that must be guaranteed was naturally communications. Otherwise, military orders could not be issued in time, and superiors could not understand our situation in time. Although the battalion of a certain unit of the Navy left several military line numbers, it was far from meeting the needs of a regiment-level unit. So I decided to go to the communications headquarters at the station and let them solve the communications support problem for us as soon as possible. I had instructions from the group army and the head of the headquarters. Moreover, when I was the section chief of the division headquarters, several leaders of the communications headquarters had dealt with each other, so there should be no problem.

This busy day lasted for about a week. On the one hand, I had to coordinate the progress of the project with Lu Yuntian and others, and on the other hand, I had to consider all aspects of the brigade, from the overall planning to the purchase of office supplies, I personally checked everything. I didn't want the brigade to be in chaos at the beginning of its establishment.

Under my hard work, the brigade's preparation and construction work was carried out in an orderly manner, and cadres kept reporting. These were all pre-stage staff. The main body of our brigade cadres still had to be selected across the entire army. With the staff in place, the work progress was getting faster and faster. Everyone knows that the Thunder Brigade is a place that every passionate soldier yearned for, so no one was lazy at work, and they all showed their spirit to do things.

On this day, the scene where I supported myself alone finally ended, and the true face of Lushan, the captain of the Thunder Brigade, was finally revealed...
Chapter completed!
