Quartermasters can also fight the devils

Zhao Dong's evaluation of Zhang Wenwu has risen a lot. He thinks this guy is good at talking. Well, he is thick-skinned, which is in line with the position he has arranged for him. He can also give a good explanation to his old boss.

"Wenwu, I think you are a talented person, with some of the demeanor of an old commander. You are indeed a descendant of a military family. It would be a waste of your talent to ask you to lead the troops. You know, the 102nd Division has just been established. It can be said that it is basically an empty shell. Even the division headquarters is short of staff. How about you stay at the division headquarters and take charge of logistics?"

Zhao Dong first praised Zhang Wenwu, and then tentatively told him about the arrangements he had made for him, to see how he would react. There was no other way, since he was the old boss's younger brother, he really had to make proper arrangements and not let the old boss down. If it was someone else, Zhao Dong would just meet him casually, and then let the cadre department make the arrangements themselves.

Zhang Wenwu didn't know what Zhao Dong was thinking. When he heard that he was going to stay in the division headquarters and be in charge of logistics, he felt relieved. To be honest, he really didn't want to go down and be a platoon leader or something. It wasn't that he had any opinion on going down, but his military quality was really not good enough. He had never been a soldier in his previous life. When he was in high school and college, he did have military training, but military training and actually leading troops are two different things. In this life, although he spent a few years in the military academy, his military subject scores were basically ranked first, well, I have to add a last number in front.

If it weren't for his brother and the dean, he would not have graduated. It would be better to say that he was leading the troops to their deaths than to lead them to their deaths. He still had some self-awareness.

But it is different if I go to logistics. First of all, the degree of danger I face is much lower. Secondly, I am a graduate of science and engineering, so I have no problem with the core numerical issues in logistics and can play a better role.

Zhao Dong actually had a very simple idea. If he left Zhang Wenwu in the division headquarters, he could take better care of him and it would be relatively safe. The most important thing was that he could see him often, so that this second-generation rich kid wouldn't cause any trouble for him. He had heard from his old superior that his younger brother's thoughts and behaviors were a bit eccentric. Besides, in Zhao Dong's eyes, Zhang Wenwu was too white. Well, compared to the soldiers who were exposed to the wind and sun every day, he was indeed a little white. At first glance, he looked too bookish. If he was placed in the company below, he probably wouldn't be able to control those veterans. To put it bluntly, he didn't think Zhang Wenwu had the talent to lead troops, at least he hadn't discovered that at all.

"How about it, Wenwu, are you satisfied with this arrangement?" Zhao Dong couldn't help but ask again when he saw Zhang Wenwu was lost in thought after hearing his arrangement.

"Ah, oh, I agree with the chief of staff's arrangement. I will definitely do a good job in logistics and live up to the chief of staff's cultivation." Zhang Wenwu was pulled back by Zhao Dong's question and could not help but express his opinion quickly.

Zhao Dong was overjoyed when he heard this. He was afraid that this second-generation rich kid would make a fuss and ask to leave the company and not follow his arrangements. Now it was good. It seemed that this second-generation rich kid was not bad and followed his arrangements. Now he was relieved.

"Okay, Lieutenant Zhang Wenwu, according to the arrangement of the division headquarters, you are appointed as the lieutenant deputy chief of the Quartermaster Department of the 102nd Army Division. You will be in charge of the logistics work of the entire division and will be responsible for reporting to me." Zhao Dong issued the appointment notice solemnly.

Zhang Wenwu wondered if he had heard wrongly or if Zhao Dong had said it wrongly. He was a lieutenant, but he was promoted to deputy director of the Quartermaster Department right after he arrived. This was not the key point. It was the following sentence: in charge of the logistics of the entire division. Isn't this the power of the Quartermaster Department? How could he be in charge of it? Would he be overstepping his authority? That would be a big taboo.

"Yes, I obey your command. Thank you for your training, sir." Zhang Wenwu quickly agreed, then asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Chief of Staff, you want me to be in charge of the logistics affairs of the entire division, then the director of the divisional logistics department..."

Zhang Wenwu did not ask the rest of the question. He knew that Zhao Dong must understand what he meant by this point, so there was no need to ask too clearly.

Zhao Dong patted his forehead lightly and said apologetically: "Oh, look at my head. There have been too many things to do with the army recently. I forgot to explain the situation to you. It's my fault."

"My lord, there are many important matters to deal with. These are just small matters that I am too nosy about. I should not be in a hurry. I have been reckless." Zhang Wenwu said quickly. This bit of insight was not difficult for him.

"Wenwu, I forgot to introduce you to me. Our division was formed not long ago, and we are short of officers. We haven't appointed a quartermaster yet. I have been serving as the quartermaster and logistics director before. So, your taking up the post of quartermaster this time has been a great help to me." Zhao Dong didn't care about Zhang Wenwu and introduced him directly.

Got it. Zhang Wenwu now understood that Zhao Dong was putting him under his direct leadership and was able to take good care of him.
