Who taught you to be a recruit like this?

Chapter 294: Commander, there will always be some

"The agreed time for the peace talks is tomorrow morning at 10:00 AM in xxx Valley. Who do you think would be the most suitable person to send?"

As soon as Lu Chong finished speaking, Ge Zhiyong immediately straightened his chest.

"Commander, I'm willing to volunteer!"

Lu Chong nodded: "Very good! You are indeed very responsible!"

He added: "As for the negotiation conditions, they are also very simple. As long as they go back to where they came from and stop doing anything that goes against the rules, we will release the rest of them."

"What if they don't agree?"

“They won’t disagree.”

Lu Chong sneered: "As long as we expose the true situation, they will be the ones who are most affected. Otherwise, they will not give in and take the initiative to negotiate with us."

"That's true." Ge Zhiyong nodded in agreement.

Over the years, those guys have been bullies who only care about the weak and fear the strong.

We still have some prisoners and video footage in our hands.

In order to minimize the adverse impact, the other party must accept this condition.

Besides, we have not put forward any unreasonable conditions, we just hope to return to the original state.

So, for those guys, there is no loss even if they agree to this request.

"Okay, go back first. I'll call you if there's anything."

After Lu Chong gave his instructions, he returned to his seat.

I just talked too much and I'm a little exhausted.

He needed to take two more breaths of oxygen to recover quickly.

This kind of high altitude plateau is really not very friendly for people of his age.

But just as Lu Chong was about to put on his oxygen mask, he saw Ge Zhiyong standing there motionless, with no intention of leaving.

"Why don't you leave? Do you want to have a few too?" He pushed the mask forward and asked curiously.

Ge Zhiyong immediately shook his head: "Commander, I came to see you because I have something else to ask."

Lu Chong asked, "What's the matter?"

Ge Zhiyong smiled awkwardly and moved his lips, but no words came out.

"Louder?" Lu Chong frowned. "Did you leave your vocal cords at home before you came out?"

Ge Zhiyong scratched his head and said two words awkwardly: "I want money."

"Money?" Lu Chong was a little confused: "What money do you want? I don't remember borrowing money from you."

"That's right, Commander." Ge Zhiyong said a little embarrassedly, "In order to enhance the combat effectiveness of our combined battalion, to fully meet the grand goal of strengthening the country and the army, and to take the lead in the test in two months. So..."

"Qin Feng proposed to set up a special operations platoon. I think his idea is very good, but I really don't have the funds at the moment, so I hope you can help..."

"Wait a minute? Special Operations, Special Operations Platoon?"

Lu Chong's eyes widened and his heart beat faster.

He quickly put on his oxygen mask and took two deep breaths.

This calmed down my excitement a little.

"Ge Zhiyong, are you kidding me? Do you think our master is such a wealthy family that he can afford to spend all that money on you?"

"Commander, I know..."

"You don't know! Do you know how much money it costs to build a special forces unit? Do you know how much time and energy it takes to train a special forces soldier?"

Lu Chong pointed at Ge Zhiyong and said seriously, "I've received news that the higher-ups will soon start making changes to the division-to-brigade system. When that happens, I might be transferred, or I might stay!"

"But what is certain is that the budget for the division-to-brigade transformation will have to be further reduced, and every penny must be spent wisely!"

"At this critical moment, you're telling me you want to set up a special operations platoon. Are you crazy?"

Ge Zhiyong forced an awkward smile and said, "Commander, I understand everything you said. I've also heard about the division-to-brigade transformation."

"But I think money is like anything else. If you squeeze it, you'll always have it."

Lu Chong was so angry that he slammed the table, put his hands on his hips like an old gangster, and pushed his chest forward hard.

"Come squeeze for me and see? Come squeeze for me and see? I'm the commander, not a fucking cow!"

"The army has a fixed annual budget. Where can I get it for you?"

"Then can we scrape some off from other troops?"

When Ge Zhiyong said this, he made a scratching motion with a secretive look.

Lu Chong was so angry that his head was buzzing. He pointed at him for a long time without saying a word.

"Let me ask you, the cake is so small. If you want to eat more, will the other troops survive?"

"Or should we say that all the other troops in our division stop eating, firing their weapons, or firing their artillery, just to wait for you to train your so-called special operations platoon?"

"Do you know how difficult it is to train a special forces unit? Do you know how much money the Thunder Leopards have to invest every year to maintain its operations?"

"How much money will it cost to maintain their new weapons and equipment, helicopters, and training equipment?"

Ge Zhiyong was sprayed with saliva in the face, but he didn't even blink.

"Commander, please calm down. You're feeling a bit altitude sick. Why don't you take a couple of deep breaths of pure oxygen to calm yourself down and let me finish what I'm saying?"

Lu Chong's condition is indeed not very good at the moment. It is not a good thing to have blood boiling in such a place.

He sat back in his seat, took a few breaths of oxygen, and calmed himself down.

It took two or three minutes for the symptoms to ease a little.

Altitude sickness is something that people living in this area can never avoid.

It's not just elderly people like Lu Chong. Some people who have lived in this area for generations also have to keep oxygen cylinders at home.

Otherwise, someone with a headache, fever, or cold may be taken away directly.

"I know Xiao Qin has a good idea. He wants to train a group of special warfare scouts to seize the initiative before the war even starts."

"Use special forces and engineers to clear the way, mark the precise enemy coordinates, and maximize the damage done by firepower coverage."

"We can even send special forces directly behind enemy lines to disrupt their battlefield deployment and create opportunities for our combined forces to advance."

"But I can only say that the idea is beautiful, but the reality is very bleak. Even if you are given sufficient funding, without ideas and technical support, the chance of failure is almost 100%."

"It's not like no one has tried this before, but they all ended in failure. Not only did they waste a lot of money, but they also wasted a lot of time."

Ge Zhiyong didn't hear a single word the division commander spoke.

He took a deep breath and said seriously, "Commander, our situation is different from others."

"I can see that you are thicker-skinned than others."

“No, we have technical support!”

Then, Ge Zhiyong gave a brief account of Qin Feng's plan.

When he learned that there was a ready-made template, Lu Chong's expression finally looked a little better.

Although, he didn't know why Yuan Feng would reveal such confidential information.

But what is certain is that Yuan Feng must have obtained permission from their team leader before giving the things to Qin Feng.

And from Ge Zhiyong's description, the information was not for creating ordinary special forces, but for creating special warfare spearheads like the Fang A Group.

After thinking for a long time, Lu Chong slowly said, "Bring the information back here later. If it's really as you said, I can try to provide some help."

Ge Zhiyong's face lit up with joy: "Thank you, Master..."

"Don't thank me yet, I haven't finished speaking!" Lu Chong interrupted him.

"You all performed very well in this operation. If you can successfully complete the peace talks and resolve the conflict, I can shamelessly ask the commander for additional funding for you."

"Although it may not be much, this is the greatest help I can provide at the moment."

"I understand!" Ge Zhiyong nodded gratefully. It is better to have something than nothing. Even a small mosquito is still meat.

"Another point." Lu Chong continued, "If you can successfully pass the inspection in two months and perform brilliantly in the exercises, you will win the attention of the higher-ups."

"Perhaps, by then, even without my asking, the higher-ups will proactively allocate funds to help you develop."

"In short, the opportunity lies in the hands of you and all the soldiers of your Steel Blade Combined Battalion."

"Whether you can grasp it or not depends entirely on how much effort you put in. The higher-ups won't waste a penny on worthless troops. Do you understand me?"

Ge Zhiyong nodded vigorously, but then asked, "Commander, you just said that the assessment in two months is a drill?"

"That's right." Lu Chong hummed. "Besides, this exercise is completely different from the previous ones. Oh, even I feel a little unsure."

"What form?" Ge Zhiyong asked.

"Big, chaos, fighting!" Lu Chong said word by word.

Ge Zhiyong blinked his eyes and was completely stunned.

Damn it!

What the hell is this?

In an exercise, isn’t it just the red and blue sides setting up their formations and fighting each other?

Thanks to the two great health tips from the boss, I can eat tons of hot and sour potato shreds now! Woohoo, thank you for your love and support. I won't say anything more, I'll add more chapters today!!
