Chapter 2921

Ning Qi's worries are not unreasonable. Except for the garrison guarding Hainan Island, among the garrison troops in the entire South China Sea region, probably only the troops under Roger's command have maintained a relatively high level of training.

After all, his troops have been responsible for guarding the strategic importance of the Strait of Malacca, and their responsibilities are far from as simple as maintaining local security. In addition, in order to maintain combat effectiveness, the Sing Tao troops once participated in wars in other countries as mercenaries, which is very important for carrying out cross-regional operations.

The mission is not unfamiliar, and this is exactly the military quality that other troops lack.

The garrisons in Annan and Luzon are much more leisurely in comparison. The usual training tasks are mainly to maintain local security. Only a small number of elites will refer to the training standards of combat troops.

Training. In this way, the local garrison can maintain a certain scale and save a lot of "unnecessary" military expenditures.

Regarding the situation of overseas garrison troops, the Executive Committee is not unaware, but maintains this situation intentionally or unintentionally. In the long-term autonomous environment of these overseas regions, they have already formed de facto local separatism. If they are further practiced

Having a strong army but loyal to local officials may not be a good thing for the stability of the country.

The garrisons stationed in various places in the South China Sea maintain division-level army establishments and combat detachment-level armed fleets, but most of these troops serve as local security forces, and only a small part are actual combat troops. It can be said that this situation reflects the execution of the law.

There is a tacit understanding between the committee and the generals stationed in various places in the South China Sea. The local government saves money, the executive committee saves worry, and both sides get what they want.

Of course, now that the Executive Committee has made up its mind to make a difference in the South China Sea, it is necessary to enhance the strength of the local garrison.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Executive Committee can also take a good look at the true strength of the garrison troops in various places and see what kind of problems will be exposed during the operation.

Yan Chujie said: "Whether these troops can still fight, we can only know if they are taken out for a walk. However, there are quite a few people who have come to my side recently to lobby and want to transfer troops stationed in various places in the South China Sea under various names.

"

Bai Kesi responded: "There hasn't been a war in the South China Sea for a long time. Now that some news has spread, many people probably feel that an opportunity to gain military exploits has come."

Yan Chujie said: "That's right. Now there are even people vying for the positions of logistics and military supplies, and you still need to bring your own dry food."

"Who is so positive?" Ning Qi asked curiously.

Yan Chujie didn't hide anything and directly told the person involved: "Li Nai is paving the way for his nephew and wants us to arrange for him to be transferred to work under Qian Tiandun."

Tao Donglai said: "Li Nai acted quickly. I have already talked to you about it!"

Yan Chujie said: "Old Tao, let me tell you the truth, don't be unhappy. Li Nai has a good relationship with us, so we can give him some special care, but his nephew has never been in the army, so we want him to go to Qian Tiandun."

I work as a quartermaster below. Qian Tiandun is notoriously strict with his subordinates. If this kid makes any mistakes and delays the war, Qian Tiandun wants to deal with him. Should you and I try to intercede again?"

Only then did everyone in the meeting understand that Li Nai had already approached Tao Donglai and Yan Chujie in order to arrange for his nephew to go to the ace unit. Judging from what Yan Chujie said, the two men's attitudes towards the matter were obviously somewhat different.

It is actually not a big deal to pave the way for children, nephews, and descendants through personal relationships. Even in the military, there are precedents of father-son inheritance. Moreover, Li Nai has a very good personal relationship with Haihan's senior officials, and generally does not treat him as an outsider.

There seems to be no need to shirk such a small thing that can be done just by saying hello.

Tao Donglai said: "Old Yan, you can't just look at one aspect of the matter. Let's not mention the ability of this guy from the Li family, but Li Nai has hinted that the Li family will probably arrange a fleet to follow them to the South China Sea and give them money.

Tiandun's troops provide transportation services. As you know, Qian Tiandun didn't bring many ships with him when he went south. If he can get such help, I think he would be happy to create an additional quartermaster position."

Bai Kesi said: "Li Nai still thinks carefully when doing things. Everyone gets what they need. Isn't that good?"

Ning Qi also advised: "Since he is a descendant of the Li family, I think you might as well give him a chance first and see how he performs in the future."

Yan Chujie sighed and said: "I understand what you are saying, but the problem is that it will not be easy to close this hole. If you agree to the Li family to help with this, there will be people from the Zhang family, Wang family, and Zhao family behind you.

A large number of people are coming to look for me, will you help me when the time comes or not?"

Tao Donglai said: "Whether you want to help or not depends on whether it can play a positive role in our military operations in the South China Sea. If everyone is like the Li family and is willing to spend real money to support the army, then I will make appropriate arrangements.

Some less important logistics positions are not a big problem. Besides, even if you don’t open this hole, won’t they find other channels to achieve their goals?”

Yan Chujie remained silent. He understood that what Tao Donglai said was indeed true. If these rich and powerful families went directly to the generals of the local garrison and promised the same conditions, they would probably be able to let their children serve in the army.

Get an official position and gild your resume.

Moreover, due to the geographical environment constraints in various places in the South China Sea, a considerable part of the troops stationed in the army come from the local area, and there must be many children of famous local families among them. It is almost impossible to completely ban such a thing.

As for whether this situation will lead to more serious problems over time, it can only be like what Tao Donglai said before. It is better to let nature take its course and let the problems expose themselves.

The person involved, Li Yuande, was in a store not far from Victory Fort. He didn't know that he would become a topic of discussion among the big shots in Haihan. The pile of account books and cargo orders on the table in front of him was what he was paying attention to right now.

The key point. After counting these documents, he had to rush to the port to meet with several old captains.

In order to recommend Li Yuande to serve under Qian Tiandun, Li Nai had visited many high-ranking officials in Haihan, and Li Yuande followed them around, taking this opportunity to gain a lot of knowledge.

Before Li Yuande received the formal commission and set off south, he still had to complete a series of tasks assigned by Li Nai. The most important ones were to complete the procurement of various combat preparation materials and to temporarily form a fleet specifically to cooperate with him in carrying out military supplies transportation tasks.

.

The former is easier to say. After all, Qiong Lianfa and Fulifeng control business resources covering all walks of life. They need to deploy and purchase various materials. It is just a matter of visiting a few more shops and spending more money.

But the latter is not that simple. Even though Li Yuande has been operating ships in the South China Sea for several years before and is relatively familiar with some major ports, when he can actually command and dispatch a fleet to complete cross-regional tasks, in fact,

Never once.
