Chapter 3
Upon hearing the chairman's words, Zhang Wenbin's expression turned serious. He looked at him and said loudly,"As the saying goes, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Although Wen Bin had joined the army not long ago, he had studied before.
Now that the Japanese are trying to attack our capital, how can a soldier be a deserter?
Wenbin is not talented, but he is willing to carry a three-foot-long sword and make a great contribution. He will report the cultivation of Wenbin by the party and the country, and report the expectations of the people for our soldiers!”
Zhang Wenbin saluted and said loudly.
The chairman's eyes revealed a look of admiration. He couldn't help but nod in satisfaction."Not bad! Well said. The party has you, and prosperity is just around the corner!”
The chairman was too disappointed with the sons of the elder families. Most of the second or third generation sons were basically good-for-nothings.
If you asked them to do something serious, they wouldn't know how to do it. If you asked them to fight cocks and walk birds, they would definitely be at the grandmaster level. Otherwise, they would stay in the fireworks alley all day long.
In any case, there weren't many good-for-nothings. Each one was more than the last.
"However, as a soldier, you should know that the conference room is a military location. During the military meeting, no one is allowed to trespass. Why did you barge into the military meeting?”
The chairman said lightly as if he was going to blame Zhang Wenbin. However, all the generals in the meeting room knew that the chairman was not going to blame Zhang Wenbin. He was just curious that he dared to break into the meeting room in violation of military rules.
"I heard that Commander Tang ordered the destruction of all the ships crossing the river at Xiaguan and other docks.”
As Zhang Wenbin spoke, he looked at Tang Mengxiao, the general who was like an idiot in history.
Tang Mengxiao's face darkened. He looked at the chairman but did not get angry. He said in a deep voice,""It was my order. I swear to live and die with Jinling. Destroying the ship is to show my determination.
Why? Do you have any advice?"
Tang Mengxiao looked displeased.
"Commander Tang, are you trying to kill hundreds of thousands of people in Jinling? I wonder if Commander Tang still cares about the people? If all the ships were destroyed, what would happen to the people in the city?
At that time, they could not leave and could only wait for death in the city! Commander Tang's actions are very inappropriate!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other generals looked at Zhang Wenbin in surprise. Many of them wanted to say this, but they could not.
This implied that Jinling would not be able to hold on. If he said this before the war started, it would be a blow to the morale of the army. If someone caught him, he would be sent to the military court and shot.
Even going to the military court was an extravagant hope. Tang Mengxiao might even arrest and shoot them before the war for disturbing the morale of the army to warn others.
On the contrary, the chairman's originally unmoving gaze suddenly looked at Zhang Wenbin. There was a touch of surprise in his eyes, and then he fell into deep thought, as if he was thinking about something.
"Presumptuous! How can you criticize my actions? And what do you mean by that? You mean Jinling can't be defended? Do you believe that this commander will immediately have you arrested and executed for disturbing the morale of the army as a warning to others?”
Tang Mengxiao was really angry. No matter how powerful your background was, and no matter how awesome your father was, I was still a first-class general in the army. You were just a minor major. How could a major like you criticize a first-class general?
"Humph! You've done it, and I'm not allowed to say anything? There are some words that all the generals here should understand. Destroying all the ships, isn't this forcing hundreds of thousands of people in the city into a desperate situation?
You killed hundreds of thousands of people for your own selfish reasons. Where is your conscience? Did you let a dog eat your conscience?"
Zhang Wenbin was not afraid. To put it bluntly, Tang Mengxiao did not dare to shoot him. At most, he would dismiss him. At most, he would bring his weapons and equipment to a mountain and recruit people to do it alone!
Anyway, he had a gun, what was there to be afraid of!
"Bang ~"
Tang Mengxiao was furious. He slammed his palm on the table and roared,""Men, Zhang Wenbin doesn't know his place. He contradicted his superiors and disturbed the morale of the army. Hand him over to me."
"Enough!"
Just as Tang Mengxiao was about to say something, the chairman said lightly.
Tang Mengxiao didn't dare to say anything.
"It's just a young man acting on impulse. As a senior, as a first-class general of the army, why should you be angry because of the young man's youthful words? Let's just forget about this matter!
However, it was better to stop destroying the ship!”
The chairman's words made Tang Mengxiao angry, but he didn't dare to say anything. Was he going to be dismissed by a young man's youthful words?
However, he also knew that this was also giving him a way out. If he really wanted to do anything to Zhang Wenbin, he wouldn't dare.
If he were to touch Zhang Wenbin, it would be equivalent to challenging the Congress Party's elder faction. At that time, it would be enough for him to eat. These old fellows, although they did not have much power in their hands, they had a lot of prestige. Moreover, most of them were members of the Jiangzhe Consortium. They had a lot of money in their hands!
He was once a big shot in the Xiang Army, but he couldn't defeat these people!
The chairman stood up and said lightly,""Alright, let's call it a day!”
After saying that, he glanced at Zhang Wenbin and said indifferently,"You have to understand this principle! However, your courage is commendable."
After saying that, he held his cane and was about to leave the meeting room.
He suddenly stopped at the door.
"You haven't studied in a military academy, right? Now that the Military University has been transferred to Guangxi, you should report to Lu University!”
The Central Military Academy and the Army University were the places where the Congress Party trained military talents. However, these two places were very different.
The full name of the Central Military Academy was the Central Army Sergeant Academy. To enter this military academy, one had to pass an examination. They were all middle-level and high-level military officers, and after graduating from the military academy, they would start as platoon leaders.
There were differences between the Military University and the Central Military Academy. The students of the Military University were mainly in two directions.
First, it was a place for military officers to further their studies.
To put it bluntly, entering Lu University meant that you would enter the level of a military big shot in the future.
The higher-ups think highly of you, so they let you enter the Army University for further study. After you come out, you will directly enter the higher-ups of the military.
Secondly, Luda University's other enrollment range was for the second generation of officials. To put it bluntly, they were the children of aristocrats!
As long as you had a certain ability, you could use your family's wealth to climb up the ranks.
This was University Lu. To put it bluntly, not just anyone could enter University Lu.
Anyone could enter the Central Military Academy as long as they passed the exam.
However, Lu University was different. It wasn't a place where you could enter as you wished.
"Wei Zai, I want to lead troops! I want to fight on the front lines."
Zhang Wenbin suddenly turned around and shouted at the chairman.
The chairman stood still after hearing this. After a while, he turned around and said slowly,"Do you know how to lead troops to the front lines? You know how to command? Go to Lu University!
If you learn your skills well, you will have the opportunity to fight on the front lines.”
"I will!"
As soon as the chairman finished speaking, Zhang Wenbin said in a deep voice.
The chairman looked at him in surprise, then said softly,""How?"
