Lin Jian noticed that the brigade commander said it so easily and didn't know what to say. The only one who could use a special force as a tool was Brigadier Meng.
After Lin Yi left the brigade headquarters, the reconnaissance platoon leader looked happy, "Can I call you Battalion Commander Lin now?"
Lin Yi glanced at the platoon commander, "What are you talking about, battalion commander?"
The first platoon leader was very convincing, "One person is in charge of four reconnaissance companies. This is not the kind of treatment only a battalion commander can get."
Come on, Lin Yi waved his hand, "The situation of the reconnaissance company of the 123rd Battalion is not optimistic at all. In just one night of fierce fighting, the loss of the troops reached one-third. Now it is not wrong to say that they are defeated.
The brigade commander seemed to be delegating power to me, but in fact he put too much pressure on me. It was really not easy to lead three companies with no morale to win a battle!"
The platoon leader seemed unconcerned, "Anyway, some of us have guns now, and you are now commanding four reconnaissance companies. I think it is easy to call for artillery support or even distant fire battalion support."
If you can't defeat it and cover it with firepower, I don't believe it. The blue troops who abandoned their heavy equipment can still compete with our heavily armed personnel."
Lin Yi didn't want to call for support at all now. Regaining morale was the most important thing now.
At this time, the brigade headquarters also began to move. In the Warrior vehicle, the chief of staff looked at the brigade commander, "Brigade commander, the current situation of the reconnaissance companies of the 1, 2, and 3 battalions is not optimistic. A night of fierce fighting has left them with no morale.
You might as well transfer a staff officer from the brigade to take command. I'll just ask the deputy chief of staff. If you ask Lin Yi, a young man in his twenties, to take command, I'm afraid something will go wrong!"
The brigade commander was concentrating with his eyes closed, without even opening his eyes. "The deputy chief of staff seems to be the best choice of personnel. If the deputy chief of staff is transferred to lead several reconnaissance companies, then who will command my frontline headquarters?"
I can't lose a lot because of a small thing.
As he was talking, Lin Yi had already been wandering around these battalions with the Blue Special Forces. The troops that the scouts most wanted to enter and the troops they were most afraid of encountering during the exercise were the special forces. Lin Yi was conducting reconnaissance in each battalion.
The company has already established its authority, and I think he is the most suitable person."
The chief of staff was not worried about Lin Yi's ability at all. He was worried about the source of Lin Yi's command power. After all, Lin Yi was just a company commander. Now he was put in direct charge of four companies, half a battalion.
I guess some people will be dissatisfied with the preparation.
The brigade commander opened his eyes at this time, saw the chief of staff frowning, and said: "If a commander does not have corresponding leadership charisma, he will not be able to work for long. The rights seem to be given by superiors.
But the true military spirit is the essence of power. If everyone is convinced and willing to follow you no matter what you do, then you can do what you want. Otherwise, the chief officer will only be scolded by everyone and is useless.
I believe that if we give Xiao Lin a chance and he can show us results, let’s not discuss this matter and let’s just wait for good news.”
When the chief of staff heard that the brigade commander was unwilling to talk about this topic, he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut, but he was still thinking secretly: "Lin Yi, who has been promoted from assistant to the brigade commander, has so many opportunities. He can directly become a battalion commander as soon as he becomes the company commander.
The treatment is different if you have background support."
Although Lin Yi had the power to deploy four reconnaissance companies, he did not have the corresponding auxiliary equipment, so he had to look at the platoon leader and said, "Turn around and go to the service support camp."
The platoon leader was a little stunned, "Go to the service support camp? But three reconnaissance companies are still waiting for us."
Lin Yi waved his hand, "Let them rest first. Let's go to the service camp first and then talk about it."
The platoon leader didn't understand what Lin Yi meant, but he had to obey the order, so he immediately turned around and a company's convoy rushed towards the service camp.
The service battalion commander was surprised when he saw Lin Yi coming, but he was very enthusiastic, "Assistant Lin, oh no, Captain Lin, why are you here free? Didn't the brigade just appoint you to take charge of the reconnaissance battalion 1, 2, and 3?"
Are you the commander of the reconnaissance company directly under the company and brigade headquarters? Shouldn't you be on the front line? How come we are the rear troops?"
Lin Yi was a little embarrassed, "Batalion Commander, I came here to ask you to borrow two cooking carts and some supplies."
The service battalion commander was a little confused when he heard this, "We didn't receive the order. The food of each reconnaissance company should be the responsibility of the troops to which it belongs. You should not be short of food."
Lin Yi nodded, "I know, but the reconnaissance company of the 1st, 23rd and 3rd Battalions has suffered serious battle losses and has very low morale. I want to improve the food for everyone so that they can regroup and regain a certain amount of energy."
When the service battalion commander heard that it was to improve the combat effectiveness of the scouts, he acted very generously, "That's no problem. I will immediately arrange personnel to give you vehicles. By the way, we don't have many cooking soldiers here. Look at this problem, can you
Solve it yourself?"
Lin Yi nodded repeatedly, "Of course you can. We are already very grateful for providing us with vehicles and supplies."
The supplies went smoothly, so smoothly that the platoon leader couldn't believe it. It wasn't until the convoy set off that the platoon leader looked at Lin Yi and said, "Company commander, the cooking truck and the supply truck were just brought here? I turned out to be following Huang Lian.
For those who have come to the service camp to get supplies, it’s really hard to get things.”
Lin Yi smacked his lips, "I will send a material report to the brigade leaders later, and report all the materials we received to the brigade headquarters. The service battalion supports us so much, and we cannot make it difficult for them. If they report it, they will probably be
The director of the logistics department needs to give them a lesson, we can't let them suffer injustice after doing their best."
The platoon leader said quickly: "Yes, when I get to the place, I will immediately count the supplies and report them all to ensure that the service camp will not be in trouble."
At this time, the deputy battalion commander of the service battalion watched the convoy getting further and further away, and then said to the battalion commander: "We approved equipment for Lin Yi without approval from our superiors. If the division chief finds out about this, we will inevitably be criticized.
"
The battalion commander waved his hand, "Don't worry, Captain Lin is not someone who will let us get scolded. They will do their job well. Besides, Captain Lin now seems to have obtained the command of the four companies, and he has become famous for a while.
No two, but in fact, this is a test of Captain Lin's command ability. There are four reconnaissance companies, which is equivalent to having the entire brigade's elite soldiers in Lin Yi's hands. If he doesn't manage it well, something will happen.
.
And there are many people who are jealous of him now, and they all want Lin Yi to make a fool of himself. Company Commander Lin has given me a lot of help, so we must help them, otherwise our service camp will be a bit too unethical."
When the deputy commander of the service battalion heard this, he suddenly realized, and then slapped his head, "If I had known better, I shouldn't have picked at the ropes. I should have given them more meat."
