Chapter 879 Struggle for Power

After all, the space on the ship is limited, and life is relatively boring. Even if there are various entertainment cabins, it cannot change this.

After completing the order of "escorting the takeaway truck", Team B's life became peaceful again.

During the deployment period, they can only move within the base. With no place to go on the ship, the members of Team B can only go have fun on their own at night.

Long Zhan went to find the hot navy girl he had dated before and discussed their philosophy of life in depth.

Sonny, a bachelor, now has a wife, and his wife is pregnant with a baby for him, and his heart is filled with family happiness.

When I have free time, I will video chat with my wife, and the conversation will last forever like a bitch.

Completely contrary to his rough appearance.

Clay, Full Metal, and Brock are similar. Like Sonny, they all have their own families and need to get along with their wives and children.

Only Jason and Ray, who also have children and wives, became the special ones tonight.

Because of Lei's mental state, even if he had a separate cabin as an officer and it was very quiet in the dormitory, no one was making any noise, he could not sleep due to tossing and turning.

I lay down from afternoon to evening without even eating dinner.

Jason, on the other hand, was thinking about something wrong with Lei, and always wanted to talk to Lei alone to find out what happened to this old friend who had worked with him for many years.

So after returning from the mission during the day, everyone went to relax in the evening, and Jason came alone outside Lei's dormitory.

Knocking on the door again, calling again.

I want Lei to open the door and let him in, and the two parties sit down and have a good talk.

As a result, Jason knocked at the door for a long time, but Lei didn't even open the door.

Jason knew that Lei was pretending to sleep and made it clear that he didn't want to talk to him now. Jason was helpless and had no choice but to open the door and rush in.

Even if you force a conversation, nothing will come of it. Lei is not the kind of person who is easy to persuade.

Jason could only give up.

In the evening, everyone in Team B was busy with their own personal affairs. After finishing their work, they went back to the dormitory to sleep, and the normal life of the station began.

The deployment period itself is quite boring, and being on the amphibious landing ship USS Keating is even more boring.

For some unknown reasons, possibly for privacy reasons, no one in Team B is allowed to go on the deck privately during the day.

This severely restricted the living area of ​​Team B, and they could only stay in the cabin during the day.

At night, there is nothing on the sea surface. If you come out, you are not out. During the day, you can come out to get some wind and sun, but it has been strictly prohibited.

They ate, drank, played and slept in a small space and lived a life of darkness.

It’s the kind that really can’t see the sun!

It's okay if such a day lasts for a day or two, but if it continues like this, it will be unbearable, and it will be more uncomfortable than being locked up in jail.

During this period, not to mention being entrusted by military officers, he kept causing all kinds of troubles for Team B.

For example, he set a precedent for the B team and drafted a detailed schedule on a whiteboard, stipulating that teammates must complete the things he arranged on time and on time according to the schedule.

For the DG players who have always implemented the "big boy principle" and advocated that everyone should take care of themselves.

This is no longer a problem.

It's an insult!

Whether it is Jason as the captain or Kelai and others as the team members, they all hate this rule and want to smash the whiteboard to pieces.

However, the military system is that officers control non-commissioned officers, even if the soldier's military age is three or four times his.

Even if you want to report to the higher authorities, you know that this is just a useless effort.

When deployed abroad, not at the DG headquarters, operational officers have the right to "adapt measures to local conditions" in how to arrange their life and work schedule.

Everyone in Team B had to hold back their displeasure.

Long Zhan was the only alternative in the entire team. With his status as a foreign aid transferred from other squadrons, he completely ignored Soto's arrangements.

Soto was always angry with Long Zhan, who was always against him, but he had no way to change it.

As an officer who can enter the DG as a team leader, Soto must have a few brushes in his hands, otherwise the chief officer above would not choose him.

Soto has ideas of his own.

One is reluctant to really let Long Zhan go.

In the last road pursuit to protect the food delivery team, Long Zhan's combat effectiveness was astonishing and played a decisive role.

Soto personally led the team to dispatch, and still hoped that every task could be completed beautifully.

If Long Zhan, a strong man, stays in the team, it will provide a basic guarantee for the subsequent missions. This is what a commander hopes to see most.

The other is that no matter how much you dislike it, reporting it to the higher authorities will be of no use.

It is obvious to all that DG is currently short of manpower. It must have taken a lot of effort to recruit a top elite like Long Zhan.

Soto is just a lieutenant leader of the action team and does not have the energy to transfer Long Zhan away.

It was precisely for these two reasons that Soto was so angry at Long Zhan that he could not do anything about it.

As for Long Zhan personally, he wished that Soto would report him and let him go.

In this way, he can successfully complete this dispatch ahead of time without violating Kobe's agreement, and go back to complete the affairs of Titan Company.

That's why Long Zhan was so unscrupulous and enjoyed his own privileges.

Arranging detailed schedules for his B-team teammates was only part of Soto's strong desire for control. He also deployed another trick during this period.

Soto has always been at odds with Jason. He took the initiative to strike up a conversation and compliment him after returning from the last mission, which seemed to be just superficial.

In order to further demonstrate his power and try to free up Jason's control over Team B, Soto chose to choose an agent.

Clay is Jason's designated successor as captain, Ray is only half a member of Team B, Brock is too professional and doesn't have the potential to be a leader, and although Full Metal has leadership qualities, he is already the captain of Team A.

After excluding these unqualified people, only Sonny is left.

Therefore, Soto specially appointed Sonny as the representative of Team B. Whenever his superiors had any instructions or he needed to attend an event meeting on the ship, he would take Sonny there.

Instead of bringing Jason, the titular captain.

This clever way of seizing power is tantamount to weakening Jason's presence in Team B until Jason is finally kicked out.

In this way, no one will dare to compete with him for command, and his words will exert absolute authority in the B team.

Although Jason was very angry, there was nothing he could do.

Long Zhan wanted to help Jason, but this was a power struggle within Team B, and it was too complicated for him to intervene.

All I can do is try my best to find ways to regain my strength every day.

It was a small revenge to the depressed Jason within the scope of his ability.
