Zhou Changfeng understood Shen Yu's kindness, but everyone has their own behavior habits.
He's not so rigid that he can't be "flexible," but that doesn't mean he'll justifiably use gray methods as his first choice. He felt this should only be a low-priority option chosen when normal avenues could not resolve it.
From the very beginning, you want to rely on connections and go through the back door? To be honest, he was not used to this psychologically.
Maybe, as Xia Xiaoshi said, he might change drastically in the future? But anyway, at least not now.
Not many days later, Zhou Changfeng came to the Ministry of War again, but this time his destination was the Military and Political Department, which he had never been before.
As the name suggests, the Military and Administrative Department is in charge of the administrative affairs of the military. Historically, the Military Training Department of the Qing Dynasty also had an organization with the same name, which was responsible for officer promotion and promotion assessment, military supplies and wages, military legal rulings, ordnance manufacturing, etc.
However, this was not the case in the later Ming Dynasty, because various affairs of the Ministry of War were more clearly divided into separate departments - the Military Promotion Department for officer promotion and promotion assessment, the Military Justice Department for military legal adjudication, the Ordnance Bureau for ordnance manufacturing, etc.
As a result, the Military and Political Department actually became a handyman, handling all kinds of chores and trivial matters.
Arriving at the door of the official office, Shen Yu said casually: "There is a saying that goes well, the king of hell is easy to meet, but the devil is difficult to deal with. Believe it or not, if you tell them later that you are here for the graded pension for those killed in battle, the most they can do is give Just say a few perfunctory words."
Zhou Changfeng looked at the three gilded characters "Military and Political Department" on the plaque, and said seriously: "However, the little devil's cultivation is not as good as that of the King of Hell. They will be difficult to deal with, but we also have ways to deal with them."
Hiss...you don't want to hit someone, do you?
Thinking of the smooth punches he had used in the Army General Hospital - throwing over the shoulder - crushing his leg with force, Shen Yu, who was alert, couldn't help but remind him: "Don't you want to do something? This is not the same as in the hospital before. , don’t be confused about the occasion.”
"You are talking about me as if I were a child," Zhou Changfeng said, dumbfounded. "If I really couldn't grasp it clearly, I would probably have to be beaten every day in martial arts."
"I'm just reminding you, in case you get too annoyed and can't help it. Getting into trouble here is no joke."
The two of them immediately entered, talking as they walked.
Perhaps it is because the Military and Political Department is responsible for many chores and trivial matters that there are so many people coming and going here.
The three receptionists were so busy that it took a while before they had time to ask Zhou and Shen about their intentions.
When he learned that he was here for the classification of casualties, although the official's expression remained calm, his attitude became obviously colder, because there was really no urgency or importance to the matter.
Zhou Changfeng and Shen Yu walked a long circle along the corridor, and finally came to a room on the east side. But there were more than ten people waiting here, and looking at them one by one, there were several colonels and brigadiers who came in person.
Outside the corridor here is a pond, a pure Chinese garden, the environment is very good, but the people present are in a bad mood? Most of the people who came out of the room looked dejected and helpless.
"The military and political affairs have followed the coup, and the world situation has been deteriorating recently. Naturally, the DPRK and China have to make plans. The Ming Dynasty's army, navy and air force need to adjust and expand the army. It is said that there are at least four divisions." Shen Yu hugged his chest and leaned against the wall. , explained: "So the military administration, military system, and military promotion departments have been very busy recently."
Zhou Changfeng nodded, suddenly thought of something, and said: "By the way, when we went to Batavia to kill Chai Guoyi, didn't I propose that we form a professional special operations unit in the future? You later submitted After receiving the report and suggestions, how is it now?"
"The superior officers are quite interested. At least the intelligence department thinks it has great potential, but this has nothing to do with our outsourced factory."
After learning what Zhou Changfeng and his team had done in Batavia in order to kill the traitors, everyone's reactions were disbelief, surprise, and sigh, almost without exception.
Although this raid was outrageous, it was successful after all, and it could be said to be very successful - the traitor's hideout was destroyed without any casualties. Not only did the Dutch and Indian troops panic, but the British were also taken out. Psychological shadow.
It is said that after the emperor reviewed the action report, he said it was wonderful. It was exactly like what was said in Chivalry. It was extremely exciting and enjoyable.
"I hope there will be results soon. We will form a team of two to three hundred people first, and we can use the venue later."
Shen Yu was speechless, "How can there be so many people worthy of such a surprise attack..."
"No, no, no, have you forgotten what I told you?" Zhou Changfeng shook his head, gestured, and explained: "What if we really want to capture Nanyang in the future and the Dutch destroy the oil fields before leaving? Brunei and Old Port If an oil drilling rig is damaged, it cannot be restored in a day or two."
This is based on known historical considerations and can be said to be inevitable.
Historically, the Dutch and Indian troops destroyed the Borneo oil fields overnight before retreating, and then the little devils spent a lot of manpower and material resources to barely restore part of the production.
If special forces were deployed in advance, perhaps a significant number of oil rigs and storage tanks could be prevented from being damaged?
First, an elite special operations team was used to open the airborne field in advance, and at the same time, they raided the engineering assembly area destroyed by the Dutch and Indian Army. Then the Ming Army paratroopers arrived...
No matter how you look at it, this is a profit. Even if only a dozen drilling wells and oil storage tanks are saved in the end, it is not a loss. After all, repair and restoration are very troublesome.
The exchange between Zhou Changfeng and Shen Yu aroused the interest of a major in front. He had been listening attentively. After a while, he simply withdrew from the team and walked over.
The medium-sized, handsome-looking major clasped his fists in salute and introduced himself: "I am Zhao Hanfeng, staff officer of the Army's Fourth Division. Sir, the idea you just mentioned coincides with mine."
Fourth Division? That means being in the same unit as He Cheng?
Zhou Changfeng looked at the major, whose face was too handsome to be that of a soldier, and asked curiously: "Coincidentally? What? Have you also considered how to prevent the oil fields in Brunei, Old Port and other places from being damaged?"
"Yes, sir, my colleagues and I have done simulations in our spare time, but the situation is not optimistic. If we use normal combat methods, even if our army's operations are completely smooth, the Dutch will have enough time to organize destruction, so I imagined that in advance With the help of hidden internal agents, a small number of elite troops were used to launch a surprise attack to stop the destruction." Zhao Hanfeng's words were fluent, and he obviously had a concrete idea.
During the conversation, Zhou Changfeng discovered that Zhao Hanfeng was a very good staff officer, with clear thinking, calm handling, and excellent tactical literacy, so he suddenly wanted to poach people.
Shen Yu on the side was ignored because of this, and he couldn't help complaining in his heart that Zhou Changfeng was really a playboy - he liked the new and disliked the old when it came to women, and now he did the same to his brothers? How outrageous.
