590: Our special forces unit isn't something those people can just take away.
This was their first day arriving at the Special Forces Brigade. Xiao Niannian did not punish them too severely; after they finished running three kilometers, she dismissed them to return to the dormitories to rest.
At 6:50 in the morning, the broadcast in the camp area sounded.
The Team Members quickly got up.
Meng Ning, Gao Yao, and Lin Shi saw Xiao Niannian standing at the front of the line, always looking energetic and radiant, and they smiled.
After running another three kilometers, the Team Members returned to the dormitories to wash up and organize their internal affairs.
Xiao Niannian went to the Production Brigade office.
“Report.”
Captain Chen and Political Commissar Li were talking with a few others.
“Come in.”
Xiao Niannian began reporting on the situation over the past few days.
“Reporting, Chief, we went to the City Name this time... we selected thirty Team Members in total. Currently, the Womens Team has sixty-five newly selected female Team Members...”
After listening to Xiao Niannian's report, Captain Chen nodded cheerfully.
“You did very well. We have already reviewed the materials you submitted yesterday...”
Yesterday, after Xiao Niannian and the others submitted the materials, the few of them held a meeting to discuss them. They reviewed the origins, personal data, political review documents, and assessment results for each person... The combat effectiveness of these selected Team Members for the Womens Team was indeed slightly lower than that of the Team Members selected for the men's team.
Captain Chen and Political Commissar Li both felt that Xiao Niannian's memory was excellent and her capabilities outstanding; they had praised this countless times.
Xiao Niannian recited this report, which contained over a thousand characters, without looking at a single word.
This was truly outstanding.
“There are no other matters. Comrade Xiao, you may go and get busy. If anything comes up, we will find you.”
“Yes.”
After Xiao Niannian left, Captain Chen glanced at Political Commissar Li and said angrily.
“We just managed to establish the Womens Team of the Special Forces Brigade, and now they are already thinking of coming to reap the rewards, even saying they want to assign some Womens Team cadres to come and help manage the Womens Detachment. How shameless...”
He and Political Commissar Li were still negotiating this matter with some people higher up and hadn't planned on telling Comrade Xiao or Brother Lu yet.
If they knew about this, they would definitely be very angry.
Chief Gu and the others must know about this matter. The higher-ups must be competing, and he believes Chief Gu and the others will certainly be able to get rid of those people harboring malicious intentions.
Captain Chen cursed a long string of national essence, truly unable to restrain himself.
Over the past few years, there have been many people trying to scheme against the Special Forces Brigade. Some wanted to transfer him or Old Li away, others tried to insert their own people, using all sorts of schemes.
Rules were clearly set regarding the requirements needed to join, yet those lacking ability still tried to squeeze their way in.
This is the Special Forces Brigade, meant to protect the country, not a place for them to steal credit.
Everyone has seen the contributions Comrade Xiao has made to the Special Forces Brigade over the last two or three years.
It can be said that Comrade Xiao helped earn more than half of this new training base. Moreover, the latest training manuals and several training subjects were developed by Comrade Xiao and Brother Lu together.
“Don't let it ruin your health. Our Special Forces Brigade is not something those people can just seize...”
Political Commissar Li took a puff of his cigarette and said in a serious tone.
“You are right. They cannot seize it, and we absolutely will not let them take all this away.”
“Instead of wholeheartedly protecting the country, they are constantly thinking about these schemes and tricks...”
Captain Chen cursed furiously in his anger.
Xiao Niannian returned to the dormitory.
She felt that Captain Chen and Political Commissar Li were acting a bit strange today, but when she left just now, Captain Chen and Political Commissar Li didn't say anything.
What exactly happened?
Something must be being hidden from her.
Xiao Niannian's eyes flickered slightly. She planned to find Lu Jing to ask about the situation; Lu Jing was well-informed.
Seeing Lu Jing walking toward her from the opposite direction, Xiao Niannian quickly stepped forward.
Seeing Niannian's gaze sizing him up, Lu Jing immediately understood that Niannian had something to say.
They walked side by side for a while, then Lu Jing spoke.
“Something you want to ask me?”
Xiao Niannian smiled.
He was always so good at immediately sensing her emotional changes.
“When I went to report today, the Captain and the Political Commissar seemed a bit off. Has something happened these past few days?”
She had been so busy these past few days that she hadn't called her family or her Godmother.
“Yes, something did happen.”
Hearing Lu Jing's words, Xiao Niannian looked at Lu Jing.
Seeing Niannian's expectant look, Lu Jing continued.
“A few days ago, someone suggested that the higher-ups send some people over to help manage the Womens Team...”
“Ah?”
As soon as she finished setting up the framework, someone wanted to reap the rewards?
“It's not just the Womens Team; they also want to send people to the Special Forces Brigade...”
Hearing Lu Jing's words, Xiao Niannian felt a surge of anger.
She had thought of this possibility before, but for them to try and reap the rewards right when the Womens Detachment was just starting up—they were truly dreaming.
“The Captain and the Political Commissar will figure out a way. When it comes to the Womens Detachment, only your word counts; no one else should think about getting involved...”
Lu Jing comforted Xiao Niannian.
“Yes, they are making a move now, intending to target not only the Captain and the Political Commissar, but also to seize control of the Special Forces Brigade, and they have their eyes on the money donated by Uncle Wang...”
Uncle Wang donated fifty million yuan to the Special Forces Brigade. Captain Li and the others took ten million yuan, and another ten million yuan was handed over to the higher-ups. The Special Forces Brigade still had thirty million yuan, and after giving Division Commander Yu and the others several million yuan, the Special Forces Brigade currently holds over twenty million yuan.
In an era where salaries were only dozens of yuan per month, over twenty million yuan was an astronomical figure. Even in her Original World, over twenty million yuan was a huge sum of money.
Lu Jing nodded, agreeing with her assessment.
“The family knows about this too, and they won't let their schemes succeed...”
Hearing Lu Jing say that the family knew, Xiao Niannian understood that “the family” referred not only to the Lu Family but also to her own family.
“Their schemes definitely won't succeed. The higher-ups won't allow them to cause trouble. Our Special Forces Brigade is now a benchmark...”
Xiao Niannian used a tone of certainty.
She had encountered such things in her Original World before, but those schemes were all destroyed.
She believed the same would happen here.
Seeing Niannian's determined expression, Lu Jing also smiled.
“You are right.”
After talking with Lu Jing for a while, Xiao Niannian continued to the training grounds to train the Team Members.
When noon arrived, Xiao Niannian went to the office to call home.
“Hello.”
Xiao Niannian heard Grandma's voice and immediately called out.
“Grandma.”
“Precious, you haven't called back for several days. Have you been very busy lately?”
After Xiao Niannian talked with Grandma Gu for a while, Grandpa Gu walked over.
