Chapter 572 Guan Jiwu's Expectations! [Please subscribe! Please vote!]

"All right!"

Guan Jiwu's smile remained unchanged as he cheerfully gave instructions to Hu Yiming and the others.

"Didn't Wei Hong say that he's going to continue staking out tonight?"

"He is now the most capable and meritorious person in our division, so let's not disturb his rest."

"Aren't there other people in the stakeout team? They should have some information about the specifics, right?"

"Find two people who are close to Wei Hong and have them give a brief talk."

"If I don't know anything about the situation and I go to report it, I'm afraid I'll get scolded!"

Unknowingly.

Guan Jiwu changed his way of addressing Zhao Weihong from calling her by her given name to the more intimate "Weihong".

The cadres were immediately amused by Guan Jiwu's words. Only a very few people remained frowning, pondering Guan Jiwu's words, "This is Zhao Weihong!"

Guan Jiwu saw this but didn't make a fuss. He simply waited calmly for the other members of the stakeout team to come and report the situation.

Guan Jiwu had been somewhat worried recently that the 149th Division might decline after his departure.

If it were Guan Jiwu a year ago, he probably wouldn't have considered this kind of question.

But after Zhao Weihong’s several resounding “reminders”, Guan Jiwu finally realized that his past “patriarchal” work style, relying on his personal ability and extremely vigorous energy, had indeed made the 149th Division a renowned elite unit in the entire army in a short period of time.

However, in the long run, his "hands-on" approach to leading troops has seriously affected the growth and development of his officers and soldiers, especially the cadres, and has also created a difficult problem for his future successors.

Over the course of ten years, everyone in the 149th Division has become deeply accustomed to Guan Jiwu's work style.

However, not everyone has the ability and energy of Guan Jiwu to oversee all aspects of the 149th Division's work and personally handle every matter.

In fact, looking across the entire army, only Guan Jiwu could do this, and orders could be directly issued to the company level, or even the platoon level!

Other division-level commanders generally only issue orders to their subordinate regimental-level units and directly subordinate units.

As for how to accomplish the task, that's a question that grassroots cadres need to consider.

This is quite different from the current overall style of the 149th Division.

This was to be expected.

After Guan Jiwu leaves office, the working style of the entire 149th Division will undergo a major shift!

Guan Jiwu was quite worried about whether the cadres, who had been "spoiled" by Guan Jiwu, could adapt to this new work rhythm and demonstrate the ability and initiative required for it.
After all, this is a mess he created himself; if he doesn't care, who will?
He originally planned to go to Beijing after resolving this issue.

However, the pressure from Yanjing was too great, and Guan Jiwu simply didn't have time to clean up the mess. He could only carry his worries and seize the last bit of time he had left in the 149th Division to try to guide the entire division to make some changes.

For example, in this joint operation, if it were Guan Jiwu's usual style, would Zhao Weihong still want to lead a team to conduct a separate stakeout?
dream!

It is estimated that Guan Jiwu had already planned out the tasks for each company, and even each squad, before they set off!

All the officers and soldiers of the 149th Division had to do was follow Guan Jiwu's instructions and act accordingly; they didn't need to worry about anything else.

This was once the source of the 149th Division's numerous victories in the past.

Today, this has also become a constraint on the continued development and reform of the 149th Division.

Although they have begun to consciously guide the 149th Division to make changes.

But Guan Jiwu's worries did not lessen at all, because the time left for him was simply too short.

However, after learning about Zhao Weihong's performance
Guan Jiwu knew he could rest assured.

Although he will be leaving soon.

But Zhao Weihong is still here, and the 149th Division will surely become the most significant and memorable stop in Zhao Weihong's military career!
He firmly believes that no matter what happens, Zhao Weihong will definitely be able to set a good example for others!
This is the significance of benchmarks!

Guan Jiwu even had some expectations.

We eagerly await to see what the 149th Division will become after his departure, under Zhao Weihong's "bottom-up" influence.

However, we will only know this after Guan Jiwu finishes his new job.

Just before the joint operation began, Guan Jiwu's promotion and move to Beijing were finally finalized.

Shortly after Zhao Weihong returns to school, Guan Jiwu will go directly to Beijing to become the leader of the newly established "Light Infantry Division Information Reform Group"!
To some extent, this "reform team" was tailor-made for Guan Jiwu.

In terms of rank, this reform group, which belongs to the General Headquarters, is at the deputy military level.

However, in terms of functions, resources that can be mobilized, and the voice within the military system, the reform group far surpasses the numerous military-level units under the "four headquarters"!
The reason why it was able to possess such power far exceeding its rank was that it was an emergency measure taken to meet the current rigid requirements of the military's information-based transformation and development.

For example, the information technology transformation of the motorized infantry division and mountain division under Guan Jiwu's command already involves many elements such as "military, politics, personnel, equipment, and logistics," and the work directly spans the "four headquarters"!

Without a unified leadership body, it would be very difficult to implement work involving multiple departments.

Of course, having a "platform" alone is not enough.

Without a strong core leader who can effectively manage the situation, communication with other departments can be challenging.

Guan Jiwu, though of low rank, was extremely experienced and highly capable, and thus became the most suitable person in charge of the reform team!
Many of Guan Jiwu's old comrades-in-arms have become important leaders at the deputy general level or even the full general level. Whether it is the current "seven major military regions" or the "four headquarters" in Yanjing, who wouldn't give Guan Jiwu face?
This temporarily formed reform group will become the "fast track" for Guan Jiwu, who has served as a division commander for ten years, to reach a higher stage in the future!

Since this new department was established as a temporary measure, it will definitely be dissolved once its work is completed.

Having successfully completed this important mission, it was only natural that Guan Jiwu would be promoted from deputy army rank.

If all goes well.

Guan Jiwu is very likely to complete a magnificent transformation within six to seven years, from "deputy military officer to full military officer, and then to deputy military district officer," completely growing from an "ordinary" military officer into an important reserve talent who is expected to succeed Deputy Chief Wei in the future!

Thinking of this, Guan Jiwu suddenly felt a pang of emotion.

Not long ago, he had made preparations for retirement.

Unexpectedly, a few months later, his situation took off, and he will be able to shine in the military for at least another ten years!

This unexpected development for Guan Jiwu was certainly related to a change in his thinking.

But in the end, it was all because of that junior brother he used to look down on!

Zhao Weihong!
Just now, when Hu Yiming was talking in a daze about how he was "lectured" by Zhao Weihong, Guan Jiwu really wanted to chime in.

You weren't the only one who learned a lesson from Zhao Weihong! After learning the details of the operation from the armed police platoon leader and Li Sanqiang...

Guan Jiwu immediately reported the operation personally led by Zhao Weihong, which immediately caused a huge uproar at the headquarters!
In terms of results, Zhao Weihong's operation was not the most outstanding.

While Zhao Weihong was leading the team to stake out the area, other teams in various directions were also busy, and many of them received intelligence support from the public security authorities, achieving increasingly brilliant results!
However, the reason why these teams were able to achieve such great success was inseparable from the intelligence support they received.

In other words, the movements of drug traffickers are all under the control of the headquarters. No matter who is sent, they can successfully prevent drug traffickers from attempting to smuggle contraband into the country.

However, the headquarters had not received any prior intelligence about the operation that Zhao Weihong cracked!
If Zhao Weihong hadn't impulsively chosen to wait in that spot for so many days, this group of drug traffickers would have successfully entered the country!
Although the headquarters also set up multiple checkpoints within the territory.

It's simply a pipe dream for these drug traffickers to transport contraband out of the country in such a short time.

But the inability to transport it does not mean it cannot be hidden.

Once this massive crackdown is over, this small batch of contraband smuggled into the country could cause enormous harm!
fortunately!

This group of drug traffickers' attempt was ruthlessly destroyed by Zhao Weihong when it was still in its infancy.

At the joint operation preparatory meeting, the leader in the Zhongshan suit, who spoke for half an hour, praised Zhao Weihong and the 446th Regiment for more than ten minutes to Guan Jiwu and the leaders of the Bashu Military Region!
Fortunately, the leader in charge of the team from the Bashu Military Region this time was not Wang Chuan.

Otherwise, he would probably show off to Zhou Kehu again!

Finally, the leader in the Zhongshan suit didn't forget to specifically name Zhao Weihong and ask her to come to the headquarters.

He wasn't trying to praise Zhao Weihong, after all, it wasn't time to reward her for her contributions yet.

He was just very curious as to how Zhao Weihong was so sure that drug traffickers might pass by that location.

In fact, this is a source of confusion for many people within the headquarters!

Only Zhao Weihong, the person directly involved, can answer the question that has been troubling them!

After hearing about Zhao Weihong's deeds, the leader in the Zhongshan suit added a sentence.

"Tell the comrades at the grassroots level not to rush to send Comrade Zhao Weihong over. Make sure they get enough sleep, plenty of sleep, and good rest!"

"I don't want to be the villain who disturbs the rest of our comrades at the grassroots level!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of laughter erupted in the conference room. Some people joked, "Just sleeping isn't enough, you also need to eat your fill." The air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

However, this is easier said than done.

To be precise, it was Hu Yiming, who was in charge of relaying the message, who suffered the most.
When Zhao Weihong slept comfortably until the sun was high in the sky, she opened her eyes.

What came into view was Hu Yiming standing at the door, his eyes vacant.
"Company commander?"

What are you doing standing here?

Looking at Zhao Weihong's expression, which was a mixture of surprise and fear.

Hu Yiming gave a somewhat eerie smile, but instead of answering his question, he slowly began to speak.

"Haha, Lao Zhao, you're finally awake."

"Get up quickly, you have to go on a long trip after you finish eating."

For some reason, Hu Yiming's pauses between words were very obvious when he spoke, making him sound very stiff.

It's like an old, poorly maintained, and not very smart intelligent robot.
However, although Hu Yiming's way of expressing himself was difficult to understand, Zhao Weihong still managed to grasp the key points of the matter.

"Travelling?"

"Correct."

Hu Yiming nodded, and then spoke slowly, emphasizing each word.

"The division commander has reported your case."

"The leaders at headquarters are very interested in how you discovered this group of drug traffickers."

"I need you to go to the headquarters; there may be other things I need to tell you."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Weihong frowned, seemingly wanting to refuse.

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Weihong, for some reason, put down her work, which was quite rare for her, and said.

"okay, I get it."

Zhao Weihong could roughly guess the purpose of the General Headquarters' search for her.

Actions and such are secondary.

The main question is how to pinpoint the "target region".

To outsiders, Zhao Weihong's unconventional choice of location for stakeout and his successful ambush of drug traffickers was nothing short of a "miracle"!

But setting aside the vague notion of "luck," Zhao Weihong's success is actually traceable.

The tropical rainforests bordering Laos and Yunnan are vast, but not all areas are accessible.

Near water sources, swamps often form that are difficult to detect from the outside.

For drug traffickers who have to "carry a heavy burden forward," these locations are obviously impassable, which eliminates a considerable portion of the area for Zhao Weihong.

As for those areas that Yan Guo already has information about and has dedicated patrols and checkpoints for, Zhao Weihong doesn't need to pay attention to them either.

With both factors combined, what Zhao Weihong had to do was to use military maps to find new locations that had previously gone unnoticed but were now likely to be used by drug traffickers to cross the border under the current comprehensive joint operations.

In a sense, this is probably a "mathematical problem" that requires the application of geographical knowledge.

Analyze the problem, consider the given conditions, and finally arrive at the answer.

It's that simple.

of course.

Zhao Weihong wasn't 100% sure whether drug traffickers would actually pass through the locations she had deduced.

However, judging from the current results, Zhao Weihong's conclusions are still very valuable.

If the organization needs her, Zhao Weihong will not hesitate to contribute her findings, or even go further.

For example, using similar principles, a comprehensive plan could be developed to fill any gaps or deficiencies along the entire southwestern border under the joint operation's responsibility!
