Chapter 972 Full-time Secretary System

Boom boom boom!

"report!"

Just as Gu Chengyuan and Chief of Staff Wu Bin were conducting in-depth analysis of the "Western Theater Joint Target Reconnaissance Reorganization Report", the heavy explosion-proof door of the office was knocked briefly and forcefully.

"Enter!"

The door was pushed open, and Colonel Zhou Guihong, Director of the Secretariat, walked into the room with steady steps. He faced Gu Chengyuan, stood at attention and saluted, his voice clear and solemn:

"Reporting to the commander! The identity of the important individual in the photo has been verified! After personal identification and signature confirmation by Commander Yu Zhengguo of the 77th Corps, the target individual is undoubtedly Major General Gao Zhikai, Commander of the 76th Corps of the Western Theater Command!"

After the words fell, Zhou Guihong took a step forward, bowed slightly, and handed a tightly sealed folder to Gu Chengyuan with both hands:

"This is the 'Supplementary Intelligence Report on Gao Zhikai and the 76th Corps,' compiled based on Corps Commander Yu Zhengguo's oral account."

He then handed another identical document to Chief of Staff Wu Bin.

Originally there was only one copy, but Zhou Guihong knew that Chief of Staff Wu Bin was reporting in the chief's office at that time, so she specially printed an extra copy and even used up some favors for this.

After all, this is a top-secret document. Each copy must be individually numbered and strictly controlled. It is not a flyer distributed on the street where you can print as many copies as you want.

"Does the leader have any other instructions?" Zhou Guihong asked.

Gu Chengyuan's eyes were still on the newly received documents, without raising his head:

"We don't have any here at the moment. Go to the secretariat next door and take your men to thoroughly sort out the latest battle reports from Yucheng and summarize the situation. Then submit a briefing to me as soon as possible."

"Yes! I guarantee to complete the task!" Zhou Guihong saluted and turned away neatly.

With the rapid expansion and complication of the jurisdiction and combat missions of the Zhongzhou Theater Command, in order to ensure that the core command level of the theater command can focus on the main business of strategic decision-making and combat command, the interference of redundant administrative affairs can be minimized.

After repeated research and discussion and approval by the Standing Committee of the Theater Command, Gu Chengyuan finally made the decision to introduce a professional and standardized full-time secretary assistance system in senior command positions in the theater command.

According to the "Regulations on the Management of Full-time Secretaries for Senior Command Posts in the Zhongzhou Theater Command" officially issued by the Theater Command Standing Committee:

Scope of deployment: Leading cadres at the rank of deputy theater commander and above (including those enjoying the treatment of deputy theater commander rank) may be equipped with full-time secretaries in accordance with regulations.

Core responsibilities: Full-time secretaries are mainly responsible for key auxiliary tasks such as coordinating and supervising important daily affairs, efficiently circulating and processing core documents, and carefully arranging and ensuring the leader's itinerary, becoming an "efficient filter" between the leader and complicated affairs.

Allocation principles: The number of full-time secretaries shall be determined dynamically and allocated according to the principle of "dynamic staffing and demand-based allocation", and scientific assessment and dynamic adjustment shall be carried out strictly based on the importance of the areas actually under the chief's responsibility, workload intensity and wartime/peacetime status.

In conjunction with this regulation, the Theater Command Standing Committee also approved three distinguished general officers to enjoy the treatment of deputy theater commanders (only treatment, not actual position and rank promotion):

Commander of the Yucheng Military Region: Major General Lu Chong

Commander of the Night Market Garrison: Major General Jia Sanniu

Commander of the Tongren Military Sub-district: Major General Zhu Jun

Among them, in view of the extremely complex and severe situation of the Yucheng battlefield, the theater specially approved the Yucheng Military Region to set up the "Yucheng Front Command Secretariat" with a staff of 5 people. It has the largest number of secretaries except for Gu Chengyuan's theater command secretariat, and even other theater standing committee members cannot match it.

Some people may think that this is unnecessary. After all, even if it comes to company and battalion commanders, the clerks in the company and battalion headquarters are doing the work of secretaries. Why should we create a separate title?

But in fact, the promotion of the full-time secretary system, in addition to improving the work efficiency of senior commanders and fighters, is more to significantly enhance the sense of honor, authority and command control of senior commanders and fighters through carefully designed differences in power, position, ladder and treatment.

Highlight the systematic recognition and reinforcement of authority, status, responsibility and contribution - exclusive configuration is a status symbol!

Having a full-time secretary (especially in the secretariat/section) who meets the level of the Regulations is itself a direct reflection of the authority of his or her position and an institutional endorsement.

For example, Gu Chengyuan's 10-person secretariat and Lu Chong's 5-person secretariat, these quantitative configurations can very intuitively serve as a yardstick for measuring their theater status and strategic weight.

To give a simple example, whether or not to have full-time secretaries and how many they have can be intuitively regarded as the exclusive "guard of honor" for senior generals, which is conducive to improving the enthusiasm of cadres to strive for progress!

With this kind of institutional endorsement, although there is no shortage of people with secretarial functions at the company, battalion, brigade, and army levels, by comparison, they are just playing house, directing and acting in their own roles.

...

Soon, as Gu Chengyuan opened the "Supplementary Intelligence Report on Gao Zhikai and the 76th Corps", the life of an "iron-blooded general" soon appeared before him:

Name: Gao Zhikai

Position: Commander of the 76th Corps

Age: 51 years old

Previous Experience:

1. He graduated from the Reconnaissance Department of Changshan Army Academy at the age of 21. During a graduation exercise, he encountered a live-fire attack by East Turkestan terrorists. He led his cadet class in killing 11 attackers with his bare hands, earning him first-class merit and an early promotion to lieutenant.

2. He was stationed at a plateau outpost and led seven plateau capture operations, including the Battle of Carlton Pass. He led 7 people to infiltrate the Barat Army outpost, killed 12 enemies in a night attack with a mountaineering pick, and seized a top-secret border defense map. After the war, he was offered a million-dollar reward by Barat and was awarded the honorary title of "Snow Mountain Blade" by the court's Military Commission.

3. During his peacekeeping mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in order to rescue the kidnapped Zhoubang Iron Mine engineer, he led his team in a cross-border pursuit against orders. Later, when the kidnappers killed him, he ordered the kidnappers to be beheaded to vent his anger. He was accused of "crimes against humanity" by the UN investigation team. After this incident, in order to calm international public opinion, Gao Zhikai was placed in protective cold storage.

4. Two years later, the military launched a large-scale combat training. As one of the few combat-oriented people in the country, Gao Zhikai was reinstated as the commander of a brigade of the "Blue Army" and participated in domestic exercises.

During the exercise, he illegally activated a real minefield, resulting in three deaths and four injuries to the Red Army. After the investigation into the responsibility, he was again dismissed and put on ice.

5. Gao Zhikai was promoted to Deputy Chief of Staff of the Western Theater Army and led the disbanding of the 21st and 47th Motorized Infantry Divisions.

During the dismantling process, he submitted the black materials of the officers who disobeyed orders to the Discipline Inspection Commission, sent three people to a mental hospital, forced one person to commit suicide, and finally completed the disarmament plan two years ahead of schedule, earning him the title of "Iron Fist of Military Reform."

6. One month before the outbreak of the apocalypse, Gao Zhikai participated in the "Deep Blue-76" nuclear war background exercise as the commander of the 04th Corps.

During the exercise, facing the "enemy army" requisitioning 500 citizens of Lan City to act as refugees to block the road, Gao Zhikai, in order to win, directly ordered armored vehicles to fire live ammunition to clear the way, accidentally injuring and killing 9 people.

...

"He'll do anything for victory. A typical hawkish, ruthless man!"

Compared with the 'mediocre' combat power composition of the 76th Legion, the resume of the Legion Commander Gao Zhikai obviously attracted Gu Chengyuan's attention more.

'This kind of iron-fisted strongman will probably not stay still in the end times, right?' After carefully reading Gao Zhikai's resume, Gu Chengyuan couldn't help but think strangely in his heart.

His resume seems to fit the mold of those historical heroes who lived in troubled times, all of whom were willing to do whatever it took to achieve their goals...

This is different from people like Zhu Wen who are simply bloodthirsty. People like Zhu Wen are super-male psychopaths who enjoy killing and their purpose is to kill.

People like Gao Zhikai are the type who kill anyone who gets in their way. They don't have any moral quirks, just like Cao Cao killed Lü Bushe. Regardless of your status, I killed you because I felt you were an obstacle to my control...

“Interesting~”
