My Military Career in a Parallel World

The criminals were successfully captured. Although the hostages were in a bad condition, they were mostly frightened. There were no major problems in other aspects.

Jiang Chen and others don't need to worry about the aftermath, as the comrades from the criminal police team have already taken over the follow-up matters.

Although the recruits didn't know what had happened, the squad leaders suddenly disappeared collectively, most of the hospital was cleared out and under control, and police cars subsequently arrived with sirens blaring. They could easily guess that something big had probably happened.

The people in Class 5 were the first to react. Combined with the mysterious looks of Jiang Chen and Li Gang, they knew that this matter was probably related to their monitor and vice-monitor.

At first, they were afraid that the new recruits had no experience and might alert the enemy and cause trouble, so they didn't tell them the truth. Now that the matter is over, the squad leaders naturally won't continue to hide it.

Everyone was shocked to hear that just a dozen minutes ago, a vicious incident occurred right above their heads, in which a gangster held hostages at knifepoint.

Later they heard that the key person to solve the matter was a new recruit like them, and everyone was even more shocked.

"Fuck, the deputy squad leader is so awesome! He actually dared to exchange himself for hostages with the criminals, and finally successfully defeated the criminals. This is too fierce!" After listening to the narration of the sixth squad leader, Chu Fei couldn't help but exclaimed.

Everyone else had similar expressions.

"By the way, squad leader, why didn't our squad leader and deputy squad leader come back with you?" Looking towards the corridor, Zhang Meng still didn't see Jiang Chen and Li Gang, so he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Haha, such a big thing has happened. We have to report the situation to the local police. The criminals' accomplices have not been caught yet, etc. It may take some time..." Squad Leader Six explained casually.

"Oh." Everyone nodded in understanding, but their eyes still couldn't help but glance outside, expecting their squad leader and deputy squad leader to come back as soon as possible.

When you hear things like this from other people, it's not as true as hearing it from the person involved.

Unfortunately, their wish was doomed to fail. Even after everyone had completed their physical examinations and boarded the troop carriers to return, Jiang Chen and Li Gang still hadn't returned.

Not only the two of them, but also platoon leader Zhao Hongbin stayed.

The three stayed behind not to participate in the police's subsequent investigation and arrest operations, but to complete the remaining procedures.

Although both belong to the national armed forces, they are departments and units with different main responsibilities, so some necessary procedures still need to be followed.

The first person to be questioned was naturally Jiang Chen, after all, the whole thing was discovered by him in the beginning.

"This is probably how it happened..."

Jiang Chen briefly described how he discovered the problem with Zhao Lei and reported it to his superiors, how he found clues and locked the suspect's location, etc.

After the criminal police officer next to him finished taking notes, he smiled and said, "You have sharp observation skills and active thinking. Without any professional training, you can find something wrong and report it in time to find the murderer. You have great potential in our field. Are you interested in working in the criminal police team?"

Before Jiang Chen could refuse, Zhao Hongbin on the side said unhappily: "Captain Wang, this is too unfair. We have helped you so much, but you turn around and try to poach our people!"

"Haha, I just said it casually. He is still young. There is no harm in training more in the army. Even if he really wants to come, it will be after he retires and transfers to civilian work." Captain Wang laughed and explained.

After hearing what Captain Wang said, Zhao Hongbin suddenly showed a strange smile on his face.

"Haha, then you have something to wait for!

Captain Wang may not know this, but I was a graduate of a prestigious 985 university before I joined the army. And with what happened today, if nothing unexpected happens, I will definitely get a third-class merit, and a second-class merit is not impossible.

As long as he is assigned to the company, with this achievement and his status as a 985 university student, it is almost certain that he will go to a military academy for further studies.

Once you become an officer, your service period is at least twelve years, not to mention future developments.

You want to wait for him to retire, but I'm afraid you'll have to wait a while."

Zhao Hongbin smiled very brightly, and his tone couldn't help but carry a hint of pride.

"Oh?!" Captain Wang was also surprised by his words.

If the little guy in front of him was really as Zhao Hongbin said, his idea of ​​getting him into the criminal police team would probably fail.

Even if the other party really wants to transfer to the police system in the future, his level may not be able to be accommodated by the criminal police department of his small county.

Captain Wang is not some young man who is ignorant of the ways of the world. He is also a mostly official. His political sensitivity is much more acute than that of ordinary soldiers like Zhao Hongbin and Li Gang.

At the age of eighteen, he was a new recruit. He had at least a third-class merit award, and a great chance of getting a second-class merit award. In addition, he was a 985 university student.

As long as you graduate successfully from the military academy, it will not be an exaggeration to say that you will soar to the sky.

In the future, he will at least be able to become a colonel-level officer, and it is not impossible for him to even reach the pinnacle of colonel-level officers.

As for why I didn't mention the general...

Although Captain Wang is not a soldier, he knows how rare generals are. To become a general in peacetime, one not only needs strong personal strength but also a certain amount of luck.

Generals are different from colonels and lieutenants; they are the true top leaders of the country and cannot be promoted simply by accumulating seniority.

If it was a war, it would be fine, but in this peaceful era, to have a general...

The difficulty of this is probably much higher than for an ordinary civil servant to become a provincial or ministerial level official.

It’s not that the status of provincial and ministerial officials is lower than that of generals, but the army and soldiers are born with the attributes of war. When there is no war, it is too difficult to achieve results, and promotions mostly depend on seniority.

Officials are just the opposite, especially now that we are in the period of reform and opening up, the country is vigorously promoting economic development and the rejuvenation of cadres, and any small achievement can easily attract attention.

If you are a little more tough, stand on the right side and have someone supporting you, it is not surprising that you will be promoted like a rocket.

……

Captain Wang did not say anything more about poaching. He had only mentioned it casually in the first place. After learning about Jiang Chen's specific situation, he would never say anything like that again.

After the three of them were taking statements, the suspect on the other side also spoke freely. Captain Wang was looking at the statements sent by his subordinates and outlining the general circumstances of the case in his mind.

Zhao Lei doesn't look like the kind of person who would refuse to speak. It shouldn't be difficult to follow the clues and catch other accomplices and solve the whole case.

The key is to catch the suspects before they spend the stolen money.

They have already learned from the victim that this money is real life-saving money and it must be used for surgery tomorrow, and there is no time to waste.

This also answered a question in Jiang Chen's mind.

Anyone with a bit of common sense probably wouldn't risk taking action in a hospital full of soldiers and in the event that they were discovered. That's how emotions work.

However, according to Zhao Lei's confession, he originally wanted to postpone the action to the afternoon, and take action after the new recruits who came for the physical examination left, but his other companions could not wait, fearing that the situation would worsen, and insisted on taking action now.

When Jiang Chen met him in the hospital bathroom, they were just about to take action. The voice of a phone call that Jiang Chen heard when he went out was the victim of a robbery.

They had been targeting this person for a long time, but they were not sure whether he had cash on him. They were afraid of making a mistake, so they had been delaying until now, waiting for Zhao Lei to confirm before taking action.

In addition, Zhao Lei also confessed some other things.

There were four people in their group, all of them were ordinary farmers at first. In the past few years, they were robbed by motorcycle gangs several times when they went out to work. Thinking that if others could do it, they could do it too, they got two motorcycles together and prepared to follow suit and start a motorcycle robbery.

But before they could take action, a severe crackdown began. A large number of motorcycle gangs were arrested and sentenced, and the serious ones were even dragged away to eat peanuts.

Helpless, they can only find another way out.

It is difficult for people to learn well, but wanting to learn bad things is often just a matter of thought.

Although the biker gang's affair came to an end, the few people who were ready to take practical action were obviously no longer willing to work honestly to earn money.

In just one year, several people went from being working people to being social scum who indulged in eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, smoking and other five vices.

In order to make money, they dare to do anything, especially after being led by a good big brother and being involved in "laundry"...

Therefore, a few of them set their sights on joining the biker gang as a quick way to make money.

At the beginning, they also thought about going to big cities. After all, people in big cities have money, and basically as long as their luck is not too bad, they can gain something.

But the risks in big cities are also high. Some people still remember vividly the crackdowns a few years ago. They just want to make money, not eat peanuts.

After much deliberation, they turned their attention to small cities and counties.

At first they just imitated the biker gangs in big cities and attacked pedestrians on the road, but they soon found that this approach was not feasible.

People in small towns are not as wealthy as those in big cities, and the money they rob is sometimes not enough to pay for the fuel of a motorcycle.

Birth, aging, sickness and death have always been the most expensive things.

Naturally, they shifted their target to hospitals. In order to expand the scope of their "business", they were not limited to one or two counties. As long as there were hospitals around, they were their targets.

At the beginning, they were not as greedy as they are now. They only targeted passers-by near the hospital, and the harvest was indeed good, ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand...

But as the saying goes, greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant.

By chance, when they were choosing their target, they found that the man was wearing tattered clothes, but had a lot of stuff in his pocket, and they robbed him of nearly 10,000 yuan.

Several people immediately became interested and began to change their thinking. After a period of exploration, they came up with the current mode of action.

Before determining the target, several people would squat near the hospital looking for a target worth attacking. After determining the target, one person would pretend to be a patient and enter the hospital to collect information. After confirming that the target was carrying a large amount of cash, they would look for an opportunity to attack...

"Damn, these beasts!!!" After listening to Captain Wang's narration, Zhao Hongbin punched the armrest of the chair hard. If Zhao Lei had not been taken away, he would have kicked him a few more times to cripple his other arm!

Jiang Chen was also furious after hearing this. This was life-saving money. Wouldn't it be unscrupulous to spend it like this?

But think about it, if they still have even a shred of conscience, they would never do such a thing.

"Is there anything we can do to help?" Zhao Hongbin suppressed the anger in his heart and looked up at Captain Wang.

Li Gang and Jiang Chen behind him also looked over quickly after hearing this.

They have not forgotten that the 60,000 yuan robbed by this group of people is life-saving money, and they also want to do their best.

"Well, you have done a great job. Leave the rest to us! I guarantee that none of them can escape!" Captain Wang stepped forward and patted Zhao Hongbin on the shoulder, comforting them.

Captain Wang did not allow the others to interfere in the subsequent matters.

After taking the statements and completing some necessary formalities, Captain Wang prepared to arrange a car to take the three people back to the military base.

"Captain Wang, don't bother. The company commander left a troop carrier for us. Besides, Jiang Chen still has two tests to complete. Just send us to the hospital."

"Okay, I won't keep you any longer. When this matter is over, if you come to the county town on vacation, I will entertain you again!"

Upon hearing that the army leaders had already made arrangements, Captain Wang did not say much and directly arranged a car to take them to the hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital, the aftermath of the incident had not yet subsided. There were very few people in the hospital and there was no need to queue. After quickly completing the follow-up physical examination, Jiang Chen prepared to go back with Li Gang.

"Here, this is yours!" What Jiang Chen didn't expect was that Li Gang didn't just take him into the car and leave. Instead, he took out a bag from the passenger seat and threw it to him.

When Jiang Chen opened the pocket, he saw a set of clothes inside. Moreover, the style of the clothes looked so familiar...

Jiang Chen looked at Li Gang in confusion: "Squad Leader, this is..."

Li Gang explained: "Didn't I promise to grant you half a day off? I told the company commander about it before I came here, and he agreed.

I originally thought that after the physical examination was over, I would take you to the county town for a walk and return before dinner, but who knew that something like this would happen..."

"However, it's not too late now. I can take you out to relax. It can also be regarded as an early reward for your meritorious service."

Jiang Chen was a little dumbfounded. He thought Li Gang was just talking before, but he didn't expect that he actually went to find the company commander, and the company commander actually approved the leave.

"Why are you standing there like an idiot? Are you planning to go out in your military uniform?!"

"Oh oh... I'll change my clothes right now, right now..."

……

PS: Oh my god, after the burial, I still have to guard the mausoleum... The day after tomorrow is the seventh day, and it will take another two days to finish. I almost didn’t keep perfect attendance today. I hope it will be easier later. I’m really exhausted these days.
