Chapter 260: Fishing For Yuan Lang With A Straight Hook!
The Army Aviation Brigade was not far from Seventh Hundred and Second Regiment. Chen Jun drove back to Seventh Hundred and Second Regiment Headquarters and immediately used the telephone in the regiment headquarters telephone room to dial the external line of A Brigade.
Seventh Hundred and Second Regiment had no connection with A Brigade, and since A Brigade was a confidential unit, the internal line could not get through.
The external line was the unit’s telephone for external contact, with a confidentiality level not that high. It could not handle big matters, but finding a person was no problem.
Especially since Chen Jun had stayed in old A for so long and had taken away so many cadets.
He was already somewhat famous in A Brigade.
Almost everyone in the entire A Brigade base knew Chen Jun, and they all had the same feeling toward him: love and hate.
They loved that Chen Jun’s special warfare theory was indeed interesting, benefiting the entire A Brigade greatly.
Combat effectiveness was steadily rising!
They hated that A Brigade had always been in the sky, able to suppress everyone no matter where they went, with only A Brigade playing others.
But with Chen Jun, it was reversed, and A Brigade kept being played around by Chen Jun.
So when Chen Jun’s call came to the telephone room and he voluntarily identified himself, the telephone operator immediately recognized him.
It was the teaching assistant who had come to A Brigade a few months ago and taken away dozens of cadets.
When he heard Chen Jun say he wanted to talk to Yuan Lang or Captain Tie about something very important, the telephone operator did not dare to be negligent at all.
He knew how much his own Captain Tie valued Chen Jun.
He immediately treated it as a major matter.
He personally ran to the captain’s office to report, but was told by the civil servant that Captain Tie had gone out and was not in the brigade now.
He then hurried nonstop to the parade ground and called back Yuan Lang, who was leading the team in training.
In a highly confidential unit, mobile phones could not be used, not even Company Commander Yuan Lang during training, making it quite troublesome to even call someone.
Fortunately, the roads in the base were all wide, and being able to drive anywhere made it much better.
This was also quite a helpless matter.
At this time, Yuan Lang was conducting related counter-terrorism special operations training according to the lesson plan written by Chen Jun, and it happened to be at the kill house stage.
Even with Yuan Lang’s demonic intelligence quotient and all kinds of rich combat experience.
For this completely new training model, and counter-terrorism and riot control combat he had never encountered, he was indeed a bit overwhelmed.
He had been leading the team for several days, but still felt it was not quite right.
Things like corner cutting, tactical commands, formation…
They sounded very simple and did not seem difficult, but once the team started training, problems arose everywhere.
Fortunately, it had not been promoted to the entire brigade yet; he was just leading a small team to explore first.
If the training could not get going, it would not have much impact.
The others were still training as usual, and the few newcomers who had just joined were also training in an orderly manner, about to enter the final assessment.
Whether the newcomers could stay in A Brigade and become real old A members.
Still depended on passing the final assessment.
But with the training progress so stagnant, for the time-pressed A Brigade, it was ultimately not a good thing and must be resolved somehow.
Moreover, the newcomers’ assessment was about to begin, and Captain Tie had specially gone out to communicate and make preparations.
Yuan Lang’s time was also very tight; he had even thought about whether to consult Chen Jun or ask him to come over and help.
As a result, just as Yuan Lang thought of this, Chen Jun took the initiative to come to him.
This made Yuan Lang very happy.
Asking Chen Jun to come help would ultimately be a bit embarrassing, making him seem useless, unable to even understand a training plan.
But if Chen Jun called proactively and he just added a word, it would be completely different.
With this idea, Yuan Lang immediately paused the training temporarily, took a few quick steps out of the newly built kill house, jumped into the car, and drove straight back to the cadre building.
“Hey, rare guest, Chen Jun, how come you have time to call? If I guess right, you’re here to ask for people, right?”
Yuan Lang spoke quite directly, but this time he was really wrong.
“Captain Yuan, if you didn’t mention it, I almost forgot. You still owe me five spots. Calculating the time, it’s indeed time to pay back, haha.”
Chen Jun had actually always remembered, but the time had not come yet, so he was not in a hurry to ask.
Moreover, the person he wanted most was Wu Zhe, who had not passed the final test yet, had not seen blood, so taking him back now was obviously too early.
After all.
A special forces soldier who had not seen blood on the battlefield was not a real special forces soldier.
“I knew it, you kid, no profit no early rise. Sure enough, I guessed right. If you keep doing this, our A Brigade will sooner or later be moved over by you,” Yuan Lang teased.
“I wouldn’t dare, I don’t have such big ambitions.”
Chen Jun quickly denied it, but actually, if possible, he really wanted to take them all.
If in the future his combined arms division could include A Brigade as part, just thinking about it made Chen Jun feel extremely stimulating.
Then the combined arms division in his hands would be the strongest division in the entire army.
“You wouldn’t dare? Is there anything in this world you wouldn’t dare?” Yuan Lang continued to tease.
Though it was teasing, that was really his thought.
Yuan Lang now saw through Chen Jun.
Don’t look at Chen Jun with just one Mao Three on his shoulders, a grassroots unit cadre, a dime a dozen, but his guts were really fat beyond limits; he could even do “Three Mao One” things.
Before contacting Chen Jun.
Yuan Lang would never believe that someone in the world would dare to threaten A Brigade, not only forcibly taking A Brigade’s people but also secretly grabbing another handful.
Not to mention this person was not some high-level leader, just a small captain.
Until meeting Chen Jun…
Yuan Lang was truly enlightened!
“Captain Yuan, you can’t wrong me. This time I’m really not here to ask for people from you. On the contrary, I’m here to give you people.”
Chen Jun tried hard to defend himself, speaking with utmost sincerity.
However, Yuan Lang was famously an old fox; fooling him was not that simple. Even with Chen Jun’s sincerity, he smelled something off.
“Give me people? Are you that kind-hearted? You kid have a belly full of bad water, definitely here to scheme against our A Brigade again.”
Yuan Lang saw through Chen Jun’s trick at a glance and directly exposed it: “We’re both the same kind, no need to act for me.
Just say it straight, what trick are you planning to play this time.
I tell you upfront, fair transaction is already my bottom line. Leave a line for future meetings, right?”
Yuan Lang was obviously scared of being pitted by Chen Jun; he had never been this cautious with anyone.
Chen Jun was the only exception!
“Don’t worry, Captain Yuan, am I that kind of person? How could I pit your A Brigade? I’ve always been A Brigade’s best partner, right? Look how pleasant our previous cooperation was.”
Chen Jun spouted nonsense with open eyes, not batting an eyelid, utterly invincible.
First clearing himself completely, then getting to the main topic: “Actually, this call is to make a deal with A Brigade, and I believe you’ll be very satisfied with this deal.”
“Deal?”
Chen Jun had many good goods in hand, and previous events could serve as witness. Yuan Lang immediately became interested upon hearing this.
He said with keen interest: “Come on, tell me, what kind of deal?”
“It’s like this…”
Seeing the fish had taken the bait, Chen Jun said unhurriedly: “I see that A Brigade base is quite big, with many training grounds idle.
While on our side, alas, military expenses are few, completely incomparable to your A Brigade. Training grounds are limited; special warfare training can’t even unfold.
So I thought, how about sending my special operations platoon to your place for half a year of training? How about it?”
“How could that poss…”
Yuan Lang instinctively wanted to refuse. How could a place as prestigious as A Brigade become a training unit? Impossible in this lifetime.
There had never been such a precedent!
But before he finished, Chen Jun interrupted.
Chen Jun seemed to know Yuan Lang would refuse and had prepared an irresistible condition in advance. He interrupted Yuan Lang and threw it out directly: “Don’t rush to refuse. I’m coming with sincerity, prepared a grand gift for you, absolutely satisfactory.”
If it were anyone else talking big like this, Yuan Lang would hang up without a second thought.
But Chen Jun was different.
He was the exception.
He really had good stuff.
Thinking that Chen Jun really had good stuff, even Yuan Lang could not escape the true fragrance rule. For unprecedented cases, he had to make an exception for Chen Jun.
Suppressing his inner anticipation, making himself look calm enough, he asked: “What grand gift? Tell me first?”
“Special Warfare Techniques Compendium!!”
Chen Jun deliberately teased, saying only five words.
But these short five words stirred waves in Yuan Lang’s heart, with his heart pounding, perfectly capturing his current state.
The biggest difference between special forces soldiers and ordinary soldiers was not physical fitness.
It was those skills combining experience and blood, able to multiply warriors’ combat ability countless times, turning quantitative change to qualitative change—special warfare skills.
And domestic modernized special forces soldiers were just budding, with sufficient military expenses and massive soldier sources.
Not short of money, nor people.
Only lacking key special warfare technology!
The words Chen Jun said were worthless separately, but together completely different, especially not just one, but a compendium.
This meant Chen Jun’s set definitely contained many special operations techniques.
Exactly what they lacked most.
And he sent a whole bunch at once.
For A Brigade, it was simply a killer move.
Whether Yuan Lang or Captain Tie, they had zero resistance.
Not to mention there were no relevant prohibition regulations originally; even if there were, facing such huge temptation, they must abolish regulations and grant privileges.
It had to be said.
Chen Jun really understood A Brigade.
Yuan Lang was completely pinned down by Chen Jun, all camouflage shattered in a second, impatiently asking: “Special Warfare Technology Compendium? You’re not joking, right? This joke is not funny at all.”
“Do I look like someone who likes joking?” Chen Jun countered with one sentence.
“Good, very good.”
Yuan Lang believed Chen Jun was not messing around, feeling his heartbeat accelerating wildly, unable to suppress the inner ecstasy anymore.
Forcing himself, he said: “If you really have it, this deal should be no problem.
The captain should be back tomorrow. Bring the stuff over first then. After the captain reviews it, if no problem, we can cooperate.”
Even in excitement, Yuan Lang kept his reason.
He still knew priorities.
A Brigade’s captain was Captain Tie; it must have the captain’s approval.
“Okay, then it’s settled. See you tomorrow,” Chen Jun did not want to delay; once decided, execute immediately.
“You’re over six hundred kilometers from A Brigade; inconvenient by car. I’ll send a helicopter to pick you up.”
Yuan Lang could not wait to see Chen Jun, accurately the 《Special Warfare Techniques Compendium》 in his hands, deciding to accelerate the meeting.
“Thanks for Captain Yuan’s kindness. Steel Seventh Battalion has helicopters. You arrange reception, see you tomorrow noon.” Chen Jun rejected Yuan Lang’s kindness.
On one hand, he wanted to show off a bit.
Not only does your A Brigade have helicopters; our Steel Seventh Battalion has them too, and the models are no worse than yours.
Secondly, to use this opportunity for a fait accompli with Yuan Lang.
“Steel Seventh Battalion has helicopters?”
Yuan Lang was indeed a bit curious how a grassroots battalion had helicopters, but since Chen Jun said so, he could not press further.
Anyway, when the helicopter came, all mysteries would be clear.
So he readily said: “Alright then, contact me tomorrow morning. I’ll notify the base to give you permission; fly straight over.”
“Okay, settled.”
After confirming the matter with Yuan Lang and ending the call, Chen Jun directly found Regiment Commander Wang.
With Chen Jun’s current status, finding the regiment commander at headquarters required no appointment; he could go to the office anytime.
Coincidentally, Regiment Commander Wang was in the office, so Chen Jun explained the matter.
“This is indeed a good idea. Letting A Brigade train our soldiers for free—only you could think of it, and only you could pull it off, haha.”
Regiment Commander Wang had previously suffered at Captain Tie’s hands. As long as Chen Jun could pin down A Brigade, he was thrilled, in a great mood.
He then readily said: “Go arrange it. Just write a report for me later.”
“Got it, Regiment Commander. I’ll go handle it now.”
Chen Jun gave Regiment Commander Wang a military salute, then hurried back to the combined arms battalion to start arranging.
He notified the more than twenty officers of the special operations platoon to uniformly take the helicopter tomorrow morning to A Brigade for special training, to prepare in advance.
“We’re going to A Brigade for special training?”
The special operations platoon members who heard the news, including Tuo Yonggang, were exceptionally excited.
Back then, they were eliminated as failures; now they could return as partners, on the same level as A Brigade.
For them, it was no less than returning in glory, washing away their previous shame.
Thinking of returning to A Brigade tomorrow and saying brightly to those butchers who eliminated them: “I’m Hu Hsan San back again.”
The special operations platoon warriors were extraordinarily excited, each starting to shave, wash hair, and pack up.
Must go back in the best state, holding heads high.
And the grand gift Chen Jun was giving Yuan Lang was a fait accompli: conditions not yet negotiated, directly bringing people to the door.
A Brigade must agree whether they liked it or not.
All about being strong!
