From the 7th Steel Company to the Synthetic Division

Although General Andrei did not name names, his eyes were fixed on the Chinese group, which was tantamount to implying through his gesture that he was referring to the Chinese troops.

Previously, the exercise was divided into red and blue teams and the directing department. Now, everyone is sitting in this conference room, and because of their different camps, they are only divided into two factions.

That's China and Russia!

Now that General Andrei is acting on behalf of Russia to stir up trouble and has directly targeted Chinese troops, other senior Russian military officers will naturally follow suit.

As a result, dozens of pairs of eyes all turned their attention to the Chinese group.

It seems that even before the incident is officially confirmed, they are trying to use their numerical advantage to create pressure, causing the Chinese side to lose its composure under pressure.

This is indeed a good approach!

pity.

Both Gao Cheng and Chen Jun have seen a lot along the way and have experienced all kinds of situations. How could they not be able to withstand this little bit of pressure?

Fang Zijian was also a high-ranking officer from the military, and his workplace was full of generals.

It's wishful thinking for a mere Major General like Andrei, along with a bunch of Russian instructors, to think they could overwhelm him in terms of sheer force.

therefore.

Even with dozens of eyes staring at them, the Chinese delegation did not back down in the slightest.

They sat there, their backs ramrod straight.

"Today I'll just stay put and listen quietly. I'll see what tricks you have up your sleeve and what nonsense you can come up with."

Chen Jun knew that the Russian army had lost face in this battle and would definitely cause trouble for the Chinese side afterward. He muttered a few words to himself, but a smile appeared on his lips.

If the Russian army wants to regain face afterward, it will depend on whether it has the real ability to do so.

If you don't have the ability, you're bound to fail if you try to find fault.

China is not someone to be trifled with.

The global hegemony of a certain major power cannot be shaken for the time being, and in many cases, we can only swallow our anger and wait for it to rise again and take back what we owed with interest.

The Russian army, now weakened and barely functioning, is not to be underestimated by the Chinese side.

If there is real evidence, then there's nothing to say; if they are in the wrong, then the other party has the final say.

If you can't produce evidence but still want to cause trouble, then you have no choice but to let the other party have their way.

With a clear conscience and nothing to fear, Chen Jun and Gao Cheng sat there calmly, waiting to see what Andrei would do next.

"Huh?? So calm?"

Andrei's brow furrowed slightly, taken aback by the composure of Chen Jun and his group.

It's hard to believe that the 7th Steel Battalion wiped out an entire reinforced regiment of their own, and that not a single soldier was killed in the entire exercise, giving the Blue Army a resounding slap on the back.

If such an exaggerated record were confirmed and spread, the Russian army would lose face big time.

Andrei simply cannot accept this!
Therefore, regardless of whether it was a genuine attempt to exploit loopholes or whether the Chinese 7th Steel Battalion truly possessed such strength, Russia must find a way to overturn the results of the exercise.

To overturn the outcome of this exercise, the only option is to shift the blame and smear the Chinese troops.

Once it is established that the Chinese troops did not follow the rules and used underhanded methods in the exercise, all of their achievements can be nullified.

As long as the Chinese troops achieve no results, the 0 to 3253 casualty ratio will not exist.

The Russian military can save face.

Before notifying the Chinese troops to come for a meeting, the Russian military high command had already held a small meeting to unify their statements and devise a mature and reliable plan to smear China.

therefore.

Even though Chen Jun and others were overly calm and composed, which made General Andrei uneasy and worried, he did not give up his idea and insisted on continuing to carry it out.

"After investigation by the referees of the directing department, it has been preliminarily determined that the Chinese 7th Steel Battalion violated the rules in this exercise."

There was a serious violation of the rules of the confrontation exercise, in which a sneak attack destroyed a total of fourteen Blue Army companies on the right flank, causing the complete collapse of the Blue Army's right flank.

In response, after unanimous discussion and deliberation by the directing staff, all of the Chinese troops' scores were ruled invalid.

Considering that the Chinese troops had come from afar to participate in the exercise and had worked hard along the way, no further action was taken against them, and the matter was thus concluded.

After the meeting, I will write a report on the results of the exercise and submit it to the General Director's Office for approval.

If everyone agrees, then it's settled. We'll all have dinner together tonight to reward the hardworking soldiers.

General Andrei was truly adept at playing the peace game, attempting to cut through the mess quickly and directly announce the outcome of the peace agreement.

The main point was that it was a deliberate act, giving the Chinese troops absolutely no chance to refute it.

This method is indeed feasible.

After all, this exercise was conducted on Russian territory, and all the videos and evidence related to the exercise were in the hands of the Russian military itself.

As long as a strong and swift decision is made in the meeting, and the final result is written down in black and white.

Even if the Chinese troops wanted to argue their case later, they would have no real evidence and would ultimately have to suffer in silence.

after all.

Without any evidence in hand, it is completely useless for the Chinese troops to go out and make grand announcements about their zero casualty ratio or how many Russian soldiers they killed in battle against the Russian army.

Without providing direct evidence, it's just bragging.

Furthermore, the United States has been suppressing China and using various means to smear China internationally, resulting in the world's perception of China still being that of a backward country with queues from decades ago.

In this situation, if China were to announce that one person had wiped out an entire reinforced Russian regiment, no one outside would believe it.

In the end, it will just become a publicity stunt!

Just over a decade ago, the Russian military was a core member of a global superpower capable of going toe-to-toe with the United States, and its global military strength was still formidable.

Everyone acknowledges that the Goose's military strength is far superior to that of the Braided Kingdom.

Therefore, only if Russia itself declares that the Chinese troops, with just one battalion, defeated an entire regiment of theirs will it gain worldwide recognition.

To help people around the world rediscover China and to promote China's cultural image to the world.

While it's impossible to completely refute the US's smear campaign with just this one incident, as long as we persist with each step, the world will eventually see the truth.

China, which has stood proudly at the top of the world since ancient times, will surely become a proud Eastern dragon once again.

...Andrei's rhetoric was fast and urgent, giving no chance or buffer whatsoever.

If the Chinese representative had been even slightly weak-willed or hesitant in their actions, the matter would probably have been settled.

pity.

The Seventh Steel Battalion is no ordinary battalion. The military officers who can lead such a formidable force are all as tough as steel.

Andrei is trying to smear the Chinese troops and forcefully establish the smear as fact.

Gao Cheng, who had the worst temper, was the first to jump out.

"Bang~"

Gao Cheng slammed his hand heavily on the table and stood up, his face turning ashen with anger.

Completely disregarding what kind of bullshit general Andrei was, he angrily pointed his finger at Andrei's nose and cursed, "You're talking nonsense! We won fair and square, beating your bunch of bastards is like beating your grandsons!"

Do we need to exploit loopholes? What kind of bullshit is this, breaking the exercise rules? I think you guys are just sore losers, shameful, utterly shameful.

If you can't handle the game, then don't play. Don't give us this nonsense...

"Battalion Commander Gao, please sit down, please sit down first."

Seeing that Gao Cheng was getting more and more furious and unable to stop, Fang Zijian, who was sitting next to him, quickly scolded him in a low voice and pulled his clothes from behind to make him sit down.

It's not that Fang Zijian is a coward, it's just that because he's been working in government agencies for many years, he understands these kinds of backstabbing and intrigue better.

Fang Zijian knew very well that cursing was useless; in fact, the other side would have preferred the Chinese troops to curse at him, and it would have been even better if the Chinese troops had attacked him.

That matter will definitely be sealed, highlighting the image of the Chinese troops being furious and exasperated.

The best approach is to debate with the other party. As long as they cannot provide concrete evidence to prove their point, the matter cannot be definitively concluded.

That's why Fang Zijian hurriedly pulled Gao Cheng back to prevent the hot-tempered Gao Cheng from messing things up.

"Don't pull me, I haven't finished cursing yet."

Gao Cheng was furious at the moment, his anger surging upwards. He couldn't sit still, so he slapped Fang Zijian's hand away and made a move to continue cursing, venting all the anger in his heart.

Sitting in the main seat, Andrei couldn't understand Chinese, but he could tell from the emotions that Gao Cheng was definitely not saying anything nice to them.

The translator sitting next to him was helpless; he really couldn't translate so many profanities.

However, his duty was to translate truthfully, so he had no choice but to grit his teeth and translate the words as subtly and carefully as possible to the Russian soldiers present.

The high-ranking Russian military officers present roughly understood what Gao Cheng was saying.

Being insulted is generally very upsetting, and most people will immediately retaliate.

But Andrei wasn't angry when he was scolded; in fact, the corners of his mouth turned up noticeably, and his eyes darted around, clearly indicating that he had no good intentions.

The other senior Russian military officers present also looked very strange.

It wasn't that no one was angry because of the scolding, but when they saw Gao Cheng there in a fit of rage, their eyes lit up, as if this was the result they wanted to see.

But just as they were preparing to continue fanning the flames, trying to make the enraged Gao Cheng completely lose his mind.

Send a Russian officer to provoke Gao Cheng, have a full-blown fight with him in this conference room, completely muddy the waters, and leave the Chinese troops with no chance to turn the tide, only to return with the blame on their backs.

Chen Jun, who had remained silent until now, used his extremely keen observation skills to discover the intentions of the Russian officers and knew that it was time for him to make his move.

So he patted Gao Cheng's arm and said in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft but serious, "Old Gao, you've had enough of cursing. Sit down quickly. Cursing won't solve anything. Leave the rest to me."

Chen Jun did not stop Gao Cheng at all, letting Gao Cheng stand up and point his finger at the Russian army and curse.

In fact, Chen Jun did it intentionally.

Chen Jun also deeply despised the Russian army's actions, and he was furious, but it was inconvenient for him to stand up and curse.

Having Gao Cheng stand up and berate the Russian military high command was actually in line with Chen Jun's idea.

Once Gao Cheng has finished venting his anger, Chen Jun can step in at a crucial moment to stop him and continue with the next part of the process, without affecting the final result.

Since a good scolding wouldn't affect the outcome, how could Chen Jun let such a good opportunity pass by?

"Alright, Lao Chen, I'm leaving the rest to you. You have to make sure these bastards know that the Steel Seventh Battalion is not to be trifled with. If they try to frame us, forget about it, they won't get away with it."

Fang Zijian's attempts to persuade Gao Cheng were completely ineffective; his outstretched hand was slapped away. Now, Chen Jun has spoken up, and Gao Cheng immediately withdrew his hand and sat down.

Even if he still hadn't had enough of cursing in his heart, he had to obediently shut his mouth and sit down.

This is Chen Jun's current status in the Seventh Steel Battalion!

Not only were the soldiers below completely obedient to Chen Jun, but Chen Jun could also easily ignite their surging morale and suppress them into silence at any time.

Even Gao Cheng, the battalion commander, had to give Chen Jun a lot of face.

General Andrei, who was originally preparing to provoke and completely disrupt the situation, saw that Chen Jun had made Gao Cheng sit down again after a few words.

While inwardly sighing with regret, she looked at Chen Jun with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

The documents they obtained clearly showed that Gao Cheng was the military commander of the Chinese 7th Steel Battalion, while Chen Jun, also a lieutenant colonel, was only a deputy battalion commander.

The fact that the battalion commander listened to the deputy battalion commander was something Andrei really couldn't understand.

Other senior Russian military officers thought the same thing, believing that the Chinese battalion commander had been angered and that their plan would soon come to a perfect conclusion.

Unexpectedly, a deputy battalion commander stepped forward and easily overpowered the battalion commander.

This disrupted their plans, and for a moment everyone looked at Chen Jun with bewilderment, trying to figure out what secrets he might have.

Chen Jun, who instantly became the focus of attention, remained remarkably calm and composed.

Standing up, speaking fluent Russian, he fixed his gaze on Andrei and questioned, "General Andrei, I believe the Russian army is also a place that values ​​reason and law. Any decision needs to be based on evidence."

I ask you, you believe that we exploited loopholes and violated the rules of the exercise, therefore you have sufficient evidence to invalidate our results and render our efforts futile.

"Very well, please present your evidence to prove that we did indeed violate the rules, so that we are convinced and not just being deliberately smeared, okay?"

Chen Jun's words were reasonable and well-founded, and his logic was excellent and coherent.

Andrei, who had initially thought his plan would succeed easily, became serious after hearing Chen Jun's question.

By this time, he had clearly realized that the Chinese troops were not as easy to deal with as he had imagined.

You really can't intimidate someone without showing them something. (End of Chapter)
