Chapter 5 Preparations in progress (1)
Time has entered May, and several main members of the preparatory committee have returned to Guangzhou to start formal preparations for operation. The second batch of candidate interviews has also ended successfully. For the first time, the number of people who have decided to join the crossing operation has exceeded fifty, and the industry distribution is relatively even. Mining, agriculture, chemical industry, metallurgy, construction, energy and other departments have begun to form separately, and each department is also nervously formulating their own preparations. Plan, everything seems to be going in a good direction.
The department with the largest number of people so far is not the industrial department as anticipated by the preparatory committee, but the Military and Police Department under Yan Chujie. Although the number of candidates left in the second batch was almost the same as that of the first batch, what was rare was that two-thirds of this batch of candidates had served in the military. As a result, Yan Chujie’s department suddenly exceeded the 20-member National Congress. close. Of course, the vast majority of them are no longer working in the military and police units due to their discharge from the military, so they are temporarily assigned to other departments. Like Wu Zhuo, they can only be placed under Yan Chujie's command when performing military tasks.
Of course, the few people who remain in the Military and Police Department will not be active soldiers or officers. They stay only because they are engaged in grassroots work in the local People's Armed Forces Department, police stations or anti-riot teams, and are not technical personnel or officers. Manager, so it was assigned to Yan Chujie. But Yan Chujie was not discouraged. In his plan, all members must undergo at least two to three military trainings before crossing over. All adults in this group must be included in the reserve list. Once there is a military operation, they will This former army major and deputy battalion commander must assume the task of military commander-unless there is anyone else who has a higher military rank than him among the latecomers. How to prevent this team, whose members come from all over the world, from being scattered and implementing orders and prohibitions, is the issue that Yan Chujie and the Military and Police Department have to solve.
In view of this, Yan Chujie and several of his new colleagues formulated several targeted military training plans, striving to make this piece of loose sand initially reach or approach the military level of the reserve militia before crossing. In the plan to build military strength, the infantry, cavalry, and artillery have all begun to formulate training plans, and even the sailing warship navy, which has not yet been written, has also been included in the long-term plan - so far, no navy has retired. Veterans joining is also something Yan Chujie is very anxious about. These days, Yan Chujie's office has become a combat headquarters. The walls are covered with maps of the coastal areas and Hainan Island. A few over-energetic veterans have been muttering about Google satellite maps for several days, listing all the land around Sanya. All the above points are listed, and multiple combat plans are also formulated to prepare for emergencies.
Of course, these arm's-length tactics are completely unable to satisfy Yan Chujie's ambitions, and the next ordnance purchase is the top priority. There must be a force with modern military power to fully protect the safety and interests of the people in another time and space. This is the consensus of every member of the Military and Police Department. But the problem is that it is definitely impossible to find legal channels for large-scale purchase of arms in China. Going abroad to negotiate orders with underground arms is really difficult for Yan Chujie, who has only traveled abroad with a group tour to Phuket.
At present, the only overseas procurement channel is lawyer Gu Kaigu. Although this guy has no moral integrity, he is a very typical pacifist. The mantra he talks about all day long is "Love & Peace" and despises all military solutions. Problem behavior. Having said that, even if Gu Kai was willing, Yan Chujie was not sure about leaving the matter to this military blind man who couldn't even tell the difference between an M4 and an AK47. Although everyone in the military and police department was dissatisfied, the Preparatory Committee also believed that it was not appropriate to carry out large-scale arms procurement too early. If the news accidentally leaked out, smuggling arms would be a serious crime that would make them pick up soap in prison. After retiring, the purchase of ordnance can only be put on hold for the time being.
Menghe's "complaint" forum set up on a foreign server has begun to operate. Members who have passed the review can see the latest preparation progress on the forum, as well as the development plans and procurement material lists formulated by various departments. As expected, registered users, mainly young people, mercilessly criticized the preparation plans of various departments, and the speed of the posts was fast enough for latecomers to ignore the topic of the post.
For example, the Ministry of Construction's procurement list drafted by Tao Donglai personally included a large number of construction machinery, including earthmoving, lifting, road construction and maintenance, piling, special vehicles, etc. The keyboard committee members quickly started arguing over whether domestic machinery should be mainly purchased. . One group believes that we should be prudent and support domestic products, while the other group believes that the quality of imported products is better. When going to another time and space, the first thing to consider is the durability of these things. The topic soon turned to whether buying imported products would contribute to military expenditures for future invaders. Then the two sides charged each other fifty cents, and they were full of fun.
Almost every department's announcement of its preparatory plan was met with merciless rhetoric, and he was so angry that more than one department head asked Menghe to "uncover these reactionaries hidden among the masses." Naturally, Meng He would not offend people easily, and he did have reasonable excuses to deal with these dissatisfied complainants: "I think this is just an isolated phenomenon, and not every department is scolded! Look at the newly established medical team. Has anyone on the forum expressed dissatisfaction with the medical team? ”
"Is there such a thing?" Tao Donglai, who was also suspicious, returned to his office after getting the answer and logged into the forum again. He usually had too many things to do and didn't pay much attention to the forum. If he hadn't wanted to see the effect of posting the announcement the day before yesterday, he probably wouldn't have taken the time to read the replies. As for the work progress of other departments, most of them come from oral or written reports from department heads, and the relevant trends on the forum are not paid much attention to.
The current members of the medical team are only two girls. They are colleagues and work as nurses in a hospital in a third-tier city. After the interview, they decided to go back and resign to participate in this action that they thought was very exciting. In their words, "There must be a time in your life where you can travel at will." Because there were so many people he had dealt with recently, Tao Donglai couldn't even remember the names of these two little girls.
Tao Donglai didn't have the time to deduce whether these two girls were too deeply poisoned after watching too many time-travel dramas, and they still dreamed of traveling to ancient times to become concubines and queens. Just because of their profession as nurses... No, just because of their profession. gender, Tao Donglai must agree to let them join. The Time Travel Group has more than fifty participants so far, but before these two little nurses, there were no female members. What does this mean? This means that in the near future, a series of impure super-friendship relationships are very likely to appear within the group, which is a major event that affects unity and stability! Just thinking about it makes Tao Donglai goosebumps. For the sake of the physical and mental health of the members, Tao Donglai is already planning to adjust the candidate selection system and consciously relax the conditions for some special groups, such as those who are unmarried. Young women or something. It has to be said that the effect of this policy tilt is very obvious. According to data from the Menghe newspaper, in the currently scheduled third batch of interview candidates, the number of female candidates has doubled compared to the previous two batches combined. Times! This exciting news made Tao Donglai instantly forget the fact that there were only two women in the first two batches of candidates.
Tao Donglai even thought that it didn't matter whether they had professional skills or not, as long as they were unmarried and in good shape... well, as long as they didn't look like Sister Feng, we could accept them. As long as this imbalance of yin and yang can be changed... No, there are more wolves and less meat... It doesn't seem right. Whatever, even if you don't let these bachelors eat meat, at least let them see that there is still meat in the pot. If the disparity in the ratio of men to women has not been effectively improved by the end of the preparations, Tao Donglai may start a special fund to work as a human trafficker in Vietnam and Myanmar.
While Tao Donglai was thinking wildly, he clicked on the medical team's preparatory work announcement post. When he saw it, his jaw almost dropped to the ground - the entire page was filled with photos of two little girls in various costumes and postures. Taking a selfie, Tao Donglai scrolled with the mouse in his hand for half a minute before he saw at the end of the photo gallery a brief self-introduction from the medical team: Hello everyone! We are a nurse duo from Jiangnan Water Town. Please take care of us in the future!
What surprised Tao Donglai even more was that the moral integrity of the following replies showed a negative value.
Thick right hand: "Xiaosheng has been suffering from single depression for many years. Now he has reached the advanced stage. I beg the nurse sister to save me! I must repay my life-saving grace!"
Chen Laoshi: "A senior photographer is at your service at any time. He specializes in all kinds of uniform cosplay. The young models he has photographed can circle the earth together. If you want to see sample photos, please contact us via private message. You will be satisfied with the results!"
< br>
Extraordinary pick-up man: "Dedicated to protecting flowers for thirty years, second-degree black belt in Taekwondo, proficient in repairing and installing sewer pipes, installing computer systems as a moving driver, winner of three consecutive championships in city walking competitions, I will accompany you forever!"
Classmate, your soap has fallen off: "These beasts upstairs, where have you lost your moral integrity? They are just two little sisters. Do you deserve to be so greasy and obscene with all kinds of attentiveness and verbal teasing? There is no limit to this. The free and undisciplined atmosphere is really heartbreaking! As a thoughtful and educated young man, I want to draw a clear line with you, and at the same time express my strong contempt for your groveling behavior! Finally, I just want to show you scumbags! Say five words - leave it alone and let me come!"
The later replies were more shocking. Tao Donglai scrolled to the bottom and saw that the replies had reached more than 50 pages and more than a thousand floors. Judging from the actual number of users of the forum, this was really an illogical number. Tao Donglai was so angry that he wanted to reply and curse a few words later, but after thinking about the possible consequences of being attacked by trolls from all walks of life, he gave up this dangerous idea. It's just that for this medical team to be formally formed and come up with a preparatory plan, I'm afraid it will have to wait until a real doctor joins it.
