The middle-aged man is a man who cares about face. How could he slap himself in the face at this time?
Seeing that he couldn't find anything to say to refute, the middle-aged man could only do the next best thing: "It's okay if you go, at least leave one of your two brothers for me. I have to make sure that there is someone in the library who has experience of surviving abroad. , I need the staff to provide me with relevant opinions."
The middle-aged man's reaction was also very fast, and his words were also in the same routine.
You Xu Renjie can go.
You said that you think the new recruits are not capable enough, so you can lead the team.
You think your successor can be found in the gym, yes, that's fine.
However, I, a middle-aged man, need you to leave me alone.
I kept him for no other reason than that I needed a knowledgeable advisor.
The middle-aged man's answer not only ensured that the inspection and management team under him would not be ridiculed, but also achieved his goal of retaining people in disguise.
Looking at Xu Renjie's appearance, the middle-aged man knew that he probably couldn't keep him.
If that's the case, leave something else alone.
Although the middle-aged man didn't particularly like Lei Tong and Hu Xiaodong next to Lao Xu, they were also the ones trying to survive in the abandoned city.
When the first alarm sounded and zombies broke into the museum, these two guys also participated in the operation to clear out the climbers along with Xu Renjie.
Therefore, the two of them should be capable.
Lao Xu can't keep him, so it's fine if he can keep one of the two.
Maybe, if you are given some inducements later, you can turn them into one of your own.
This middle-aged man's thinking is really quick.
But it's no wonder that Xu Renjie did make him unhappy on many issues.
If it were anyone else who dared to talk to him like this, he would have gone into a rage and dealt with it long ago.
In view of the current situation, if the people around Xu Renjie can be kept, it will not be unacceptable to the middle-aged man.
From the perspective of middle-aged people, he has no hope of dealing with Lao Xu.
This guy, to put it nicely, is upright, but to put it badly, he is stubborn and doesn't know how to adapt.
People live in this world and enjoy themselves in time.
Especially in the last days when humanity has been annihilated, what’s the point of holding on to those noble thoughts all day long?
Living in the present is the way to go.
If you have power and don't enjoy it, you will actually bow down and be a coward. In peacetime, such people are considered fools, but now...the end of the world is even more of a joke!
Middle-aged people cannot understand Xu Renjie's way of life.
Since Xu Renjie can't be changed and he can't really be tied to his ship, it's better to win over and corrupt the people around him.
The middle-aged people don't believe that the people around Xu Renjie are as stubborn as him.
He firmly believed that the reason why Lei Tong and Hu Xiaodong followed Xu Renjie was just because of their brotherly relationship. After all, the three of them went out to survive together. They were close friends in life and death and were used to hugging each other for warmth.
But if Xu Renjie dies, will the remaining people still inherit Xu Renjie's will to live?
Middle-aged people may not think so.
He had already thought about it. If Xu Renjie really died outside, he would be able to take advantage of this God-given opportunity to do something about it.
If his brother dies, the brothers around him must be sad.
When people are sad, their feelings are undoubtedly the most fragile and the easiest to break.
What the middle-aged man wants now is to take advantage of the situation when one of Lei Tong and Hu Xiaodong is sad, intervene, provide care, and then reward him. He doesn't believe that there are really people who are not interested in rights and interests.
If so, it can only mean that the things given are not to the other party's liking, or not enough is given.
And these two things happen to be within the scope of the authority of middle-aged people.
The middle-aged man made good plans, but Xu Renjie poured cold water on him with just one sentence.
"Captain, I understand what you mean, but I may not be able to leave you the person."
"Why?"
"During training, we were assigned by groups. Each of my two brothers was assigned to lead a team. This was done to ensure that the following players had a backbone. It was also to maximize combat effectiveness. Now if you stay as captain, Then there will inevitably be a team of players without a leader."
Undoubtedly, Xu Renjie's explanation was unacceptable to the middle-aged man: "What, what did you mean? Maximizing combat power? OK, I accept your statement. However, if there is one less captain, you can't even out the extra team members." Join the other two teams?"
Don't tell me, the middle-aged man's suggestion is really a solution.
The third team is missing a captain. You Xu Renjie can return the third team to the second team.
In this way, the number of people in each team will increase. In terms of numbers alone, the combat effectiveness of each team will be improved.
It's just that the middle-aged man's proposal only saw the surface, but not the inside.
It's no wonder, after all, he is an amateur who has never led troops or fought in a national war.
Three teams become two teams. In theory, the number of people in each team increases, and the combat power should increase, but in reality... Real battle is not a simple mathematical problem of one plus one equals two.
It involves many aspects and is very complex.
Apart from other things, a team is made up of people. Whether a team is good or bad mainly depends on the cooperation among the team members.
The reason for team action is that team actions are stronger and more flexible than individual actions.
However, if the team members do not cooperate closely and coordinately, it will be self-defeating and the team will not be a team. In the end, it will be worse than a single player.
As for the gymnasium, Xu Renjie had specially trained before, and the three teams practiced separately.
Although it was only one day, Lao Xu's training was intense, and the team members also had a certain level of understanding about the formation and coordination.
At this time, if one of the teams is assigned to the other two teams, it will inevitably cause problems in the movement scheduling of the other two teams.
If it's not actual combat, then it doesn't matter. Xu Renjie can slowly adjust and train so that the players can get familiar with it again.
But the problem is, Xu Renjie doesn't have the time.
Next, as soon as the middle-aged man makes the decision to implement this matter, he will have to prepare to lead the new army out to fight.
In this way, making the most changes to the team is no longer a joke.
You know, the combat capabilities of the team members themselves are not very reliable.
If there is another problem with team coordination, what's the point of this outing?
Therefore, there was no room for negotiation. Xu Renjie immediately denied: "No, captain, personnel cannot be simply allocated."
"Why?" This is the first time the middle-aged man has said these "three words".
In his opinion, Xu Renjie was clearly looking for trouble with him.
The other party rejected his proposal too many times today.
The middle-aged people in the commotion can hardly figure out who has the final say in this gymnasium and who is giving the mission briefing to whom.
"Captain, I said, the training I conduct here is conducted in groups, and the players are already familiar with the current distribution. If we forcefully add people now, it will seem that the number of people in each team is increasing, but the actual action process is likely to change due to The extra people make the original team coordination go wrong. The gain outweighs the loss."
