The army's approval of first-class merit is quite strict, and the approval authority lies with departments above the military region.
There is a saying circulating in the army that "nine first-class meritorious servicemen are martyrs, and one is lying down." It can be seen how difficult it is to obtain first-class merit, and in wartime, first-class merit is earned with one's life.
Therefore, the approval process is very rigorous.
This time Li Zheng and Hou Jun's merit report materials were sent over. Among them, Zhuang Yan was actually more focused on Hou Jun's meritorious service.
In the previous operation of country L, Hou Jun's performance was worthy of a first-class merit medal. What's more, he is a veteran and missed an opportunity to be promoted. If he can successfully win the first-class merit medal this time, the brigade will Help him apply for promotion again and strive for an exceptional promotion before his term of service expires.
As for Li Zheng, Zhuang Yan believed that the chance of getting first-class merit was relatively small.
After all, in the rescue operation of country L, Li Zheng was a supporting role, an assistant who assisted Hou Jun in the rescue. Even when they broke into the tunnel, it was Hou Jun, the old squad leader, who stood at the front of the team with a shield. The risks taken are the greatest and the dangers are greatest.
If Li Zheng couldn't get the first-class merit, Zhuang Yan would be disappointed. Then if Hou Jun couldn't get the first-class merit, Zhuang Yan would be angry.
Zhuang Yan never expected that this matter had already passed the review of the political department of the army group and had been stamped and sent to the military region. He only had to wait for the political department of the military region to pass the review and then submit it for approval and seal. It would be considered a success. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin showed up halfway, and the Political Department of the Military Region discovered that there was a discrepancy between the Tiger Brigade's reporting materials and the content of the report published in the "Military Region Newspaper".
In order to ensure that there would be no flaws in the first-class meritorious service, the military region simply stopped the review and approval.
Many people can't understand why they are so cautious. They say that you would know better if you sent someone to investigate.
Of course it's not that simple.
The higher the honor, the more careful and even harsh the review process is.
If there are any disputes or doubts during the process, or if the details of the meritorious service are unclear or contradictory, it will be stopped. In the end, the military merit reported by the subordinate unit will not even be recognized and it will be returned to the original unit. It is recommended that the honor be rated at a lower level.
Originally a matter that was uncontroversial, after Huang Xianxian's processing, it became complicated and ended up in trouble.
If Zhuang Yan had not been a brigade commander and was already in his thirties, if Zhuang Yan had been more than ten years ago, he would probably have grabbed Huang Xianjin's collar, lifted him up and cursed him.
The director of the Propaganda Department was also shaken by Zhuang Yan's sudden slap. He quickly stood up and advised: "Captain Zhuang, you need to calm down."
He is worried!
He knows who solemnly says.
This man has been a top trainer since he was a soldier. Later, he served in the special forces and went to study abroad as a special forces student. He is a well-known presence no matter where he goes. Whether he is himself or leading troops, he has never lost.
With Huang Xian's chicken-like appearance, if Zhuang Yan couldn't help but slap him, he could knock him out on the spot.
At this moment, Huang Xianxian was also frightened to death by the solemn thunderous wrath. His face turned pale, and his face that was hot and red just now had no trace of blood at this moment. He was so scared that he froze in his chair. Can't move even half a minute.
Standing solemnly in front of him, it was like a bronze statue weighing dozens of tons. The weight made him feel unbearable, and he could be crushed into a pulp with just one tip.
Finally, Zhuang Yan endured it, took a deep breath and sat back in the chair.
Upon seeing this, the director hurriedly smoothed things over: "Captain Zhuang, Xiao Huang did something wrong in this matter. The problem is that the report has been published now, so it is better to think about how to eliminate the impact."
"Write a letter to the military newspaper and ask for correction!" Zhuang Yan said, "Just say that I made a mistake when I wrote it and the content is inaccurate!"
After Huang Xian heard this, his face felt as if he had been hit hard with a soldering iron, and he said with a painful expression: "Then...then..."
I said "that" several times, but in the end I didn't come up with a reason.
The director said: "Xiao Huang, you have to admit when you have made a mistake. You didn't know the specific situation at the beginning, so you can be forgiven for writing wrongly. Now that Brigadier Zhuang has come to tell you the truth and pointed out your mistake, You have to accept it! You have to change it! You have to correct it! You have to do it to correct this!"
After saying that, he turned to solemnity.
"Brigadier Zhuang, I actually have the leadership responsibility for this matter. I am responsible for the lax control. Don't worry, I will urge him to handle this matter and get it done as soon as possible. Recently, our military newspaper has a special topic. I asked Xiao Huang When rewriting this report, be sure to restore all the details and be impartial. In addition, after writing it, I will ask him to send a copy to you first. If you review it and there is no problem, he will send it to you for election."
He gave the director a solemn look.
He knew that the director's words were actually protecting Huang Xianxian.
It’s not surprising, who doesn’t protect the calf? Who doesn’t protect his own soldiers?
it's the same.
Write the material and report it to the military district for correction. Then I will apologize to the brigade. In the future, I will still use this topic to participate in the topic selection of the military newspaper. The military newspaper has a higher level than the military district newspaper. After all, the division chief is reluctant to give up this topic. Good material, and I hope that Huang Xianxian will make up for his mistakes. At the same time, it also gives Huang Xianxian a chance to change his mind.
Not only did he protect his subordinates, he was able to explain himself, and he could continue to use this subject to earn back the lost face for the Propaganda Department.
high!
This is really high!
Killing three birds with one stone!
However, even if he persists, even if the matter goes to the military district, he can only go so far.
Even if Huang Xianjin is punished in the end, it will have no effect. Everything is done, and the impact has been caused. The merit report is obviously a failure. It will be useless to start the merit report process again. Because of the previous mistakes in the military region, it is estimated that the first-class meritorious service will be awarded. Not likely.
Sometimes, everything that is supposed to be there will not be rewarded as it should be. This is also fate.
In the end, Zhuang Yan could only choose to say goodbye and leave.
After leaving the door and going downstairs, the director came downstairs and kept saying sorry. Huang Xianxian followed the director with his head raised like a frightened quail.
Before getting in the car, Zhuang Yan had already opened the door. Suddenly he thought about it and turned around and said to Huang Xianxian: "Director Huang, as a cadre in an organization, you should visit the grassroots. To truly understand the grassroots, you are here to be a soldier." , I’m not here to be an official. If you play this trick, you’ll end up with a bloody head sooner or later.”
After saying that, he got in the car and closed the door. The driver stepped on the accelerator and the car disappeared into the distance.
It wasn't until the solemn car was out of sight that Huang Xianxian breathed a long sigh of relief. There was a layer of sweat on his forehead, and his hands felt cold when he touched them.
