Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don’t Mess Around!

Chapter 1718: Stabilizing The Army

Commander Liu, who had a cold expression on his face, said, ”Director Ye, Old Yan and I have something to discuss. Itʼs not convenient for me to talk to you.” Compared to the political commissarʼs tactfulness, Commander Liu was much more direct.

Even so, Ye Zhifan didnʼt show any anger on his face. He maintained his composure and said, ”Itʼs my fault. Sorry for disturbing you. See you tomorrow.”

With that, he left.

Commander Liu stared at his back and sneered. ”I really donʼt know where he got his confidence from. He really thinks heʼs a big shot. Heh, he can even be so cruel to his own niece. I donʼt see how such an official is worthy of respect.”

”Heʼs a despicable person. You donʼt have to get close to him, but you donʼt have to make him look bad either. The more you want to make things difficult for him, the more heʼll appear magnanimous. He wonʼt be calculative with you.” Commissar Yanʼs character was firm and gentle. He could soften someoneʼs fist, and he could also retaliate fiercely.

Therefore, he was the political commissar while Commander Liu was the head of the regiment.

If the regiment commander couldnʼt control the situation, at least his strong facade would be able to stabilize their morale.

Commander Liu had always listened to the political commissarʼs opinion. When he heard that, he responded coldly and changed the topic. ”Iʼm afraid Old Chen canʼt work anymore. He has too many old illnesses. If something happens, how are we going to explain it to the girl?”

”When heʼs out of danger this time, arrange something easier for him. We canʼt let him go back to the team to guide the new recruits. His health worries me a little.”

They didnʼt know what Old Chenʼs identity was in the past. They couldnʼt find out about it and they didnʼt hear him mention it either.

However, one thing was certain. Old Chenʼs identity was not simple. Otherwise, it was impossible for him to enter and leave the army as a retired soldier. For example, Grandpa Gen was a Class A Master Sergeant, a veteran soldier, and a revolutionary. Even if he was discharged from the army, the army would still value him.

Commissar Yan agreed. He sighed and said, ”I donʼt have any objections either, but it still depends on whether Old Chen is willing or not.” He raised his head and looked at the operating room, which was still lit up with red lights. Commissar Yanʼs expression was slightly solemn. ”Iʼm afraid that itʼll be difficult.”

”When the time comes, let the girl talk to her. With her around, itʼll be much easier.”

The two of them didnʼt pay attention to Ye Zhifan anymore. They didnʼt expect him to specially check who the leader in the operating room was.

”Chen Dongfeng?” When Ye Zhifan found out who it was, he was surprised. Chen Dongfeng was the principal of a high school but it seemed he was still remembered by the military unit. Even when he was sick, a regiment commander and a political commissar appeared. He had to think about this carefully.

”Can you find out Chen Dongfengʼs identity? He used to be the principal of my daughterʼs junior high school. I have some ties with him. Now that heʼs sick, I want to see if I can bring his wife and children over. I wonʼt fight with him over past grudges anymore.

”After getting old, heʼll naturally think of having people by his side to accompany him. Even if itʼs just a chat, heʼll feel at ease. Itʼll also be useful for his recovery.”

He was talking to a hospital administrator to see if he could find out Principal Chenʼs identity through the medical records.

When the manager on the other end of the phone heard this, he smiled and said, ”This is simple. Iʼll ask around. Itʼs rare for you to personally call me to investigate something, so I have to settle this matter for you.”

Ye Zhifan smiled when he heard that. He was really polite. He had the prestige of an official and had a friendly attitude.
