Chapter 1023: Chapter 623: Garrison and Expedition, Power Surges!

Fang Zhou looked at Ma Wei, whose face was bruised, "Who is this..."

"Subordinate Ma Wei, Major of the Logistics Department.

If Colonel Fang Zhou doesn’t give our Logistics Department an explanation, we will certainly report this matter to the Military Law Department!"

So he was the one Zhuo Yue mentioned, the officer who deliberately made things difficult for him.

Fang Zhou heard the blatant threat in his words, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

"This matter certainly won’t end like this..."

Upon hearing this, Ma Wei thought Fang Zhou was backing down, a trace of smugness flashed in his eyes.

But before his smile could appear, Fang Zhou’s cold voice whispered by his ear, "Major Ma Wei and the Logistics Department hindered my execution of military orders, I’m just about to demand an explanation from you!"

"What!! You..."

Ma Wei was shocked, Fang Zhou’s accusation was too serious.

"Clearly, Colonel Fang Zhou, your authority is insufficient, we were just following official procedures.

On what grounds do you claim we obstructed military orders?" he said angrily.

"Is Major Ma Wei the only officer in the Logistics Department?" Faced with Ma Wei’s questioning, Fang Zhou asked calmly.

"Of course not, the Logistics Department has ten officers; I’m just one of them," Ma Wei retorted irritably.

"Then according to Major Ma Wei’s words, the other officers committed the crime of favoritism and disobeyed military law, shouldn’t they all be reported to the Military Law Department for dismissal and investigation?"

"Colonel Fang Zhou, don’t try to sow discord, I never said such words!" Ma Wei said angrily.

"Indeed, Major Ma Wei did not say such words..." Fang Zhou said with a smile.

Then he pointed to Leng Feng beside him, "However, my subordinate had previously come to the Logistics Department to receive supplies several times, all with lists signed by me.

Yet none of the officers at that time obstructed like Major Ma Wei, doesn’t that indicate they were all guilty of favoritism and injustice?"

"This..." Ma Wei was dumbfounded.

In fact, he knew the reason clearly.

He simply had conflicts with Leng Feng, Zhuo Yue, and other individuals, along with envy towards Fang Zhou for attaining a high-level position at such a young age.

Originally, he just wanted to cause minor troubles for Fang Zhou and Leng Feng, but offending other colleagues over this issue, he’d certainly not agree.

Moreover, being able to serve in the most leisurely Logistics Department, his colleagues all had strong backgrounds, he definitely didn’t want to dive into this murky water.

"Actually, it’s not that the other officers in the Logistics Department committed favoritism and injustice..." Fang Zhou began to twist his words.

If these words were passed to the others’ ears, it would unnecessarily offend those who facilitated him.

"Rather, they all know Major General Ning Danxin ordered me to integrate the Calamity Special Operations Team, making promises in front of various Battle Group leaders.

If it’s something needed by our Calamity Special Operations Team, all Battle Groups and the Logistics Department should do their utmost to cooperate.

Now Major Ma Wei obstructs my actions, isn’t that disobeying Major General Ning Danxin’s orders?"

After hearing this, Ma Wei began to sweat on his forehead.

Fang Zhou slowly wrapped him in accusations of disobeying orders.

He neither dared to offend his colleagues in the Logistics Department nor dared to face Ning Danxin in front of Fang Zhou.

Everyone knows the outcome when a minor major in the Logistics Department conflicts with a newly elevated colonel!

Ma Wei now regretted provoking this person for no reason.

A little major like him shouldn’t be trying to show off!

Leng Feng, Zhuo Yue, and the members of the Calamity Special Operations Team watched as Fang Zhou, with just a few words, brought this previously arrogant major into submission, deeply admired him.

Simultaneously, they thought in their hearts: a leader is indeed a leader!

Fang Zhou, with mastery over human nature, saw Ma Wei’s change in expression and knew this major had already regretted.

Originally, given Fang Zhou’s character, once offended, it would be better to ensure no future troubles.

But this matter had escalated too much; although Major General Ning Danxin had said if the Calamity Special Operations Team had any issues, assistance from the staff department was available, she certainly wouldn’t want to see such domineering behavior from Fang Zhou.

To calm things down, Fang Zhou reluctantly offered Ma Wei a way out.

"So, Major Ma Wei now understands that the Calamity Special Operations Team has military orders, yet still unwilling to distribute supplies?"

Ma Wei heard Fang Zhou’s apparent ceasefire statement, wishing for just that.

He hurriedly replied, "Of course not, of course not.

Actually, at that time if Lieutenant Colonel Leng Feng had only said he had military orders, it would’ve been fine, right?

Subordinate indeed did not hear colleagues mention this matter, so made many offenses, please, Colonel Fang Zhou, forgive!"

Thus, the farce came to an abrupt end.

Fang Zhou returned to the camp first, while Ma Wei, whose face hurt from forced smiling, had to pretend respectfully to send Fang Zhou off, but did not dare to blame him.

He didn’t underestimate Fang Zhou, the young man, at all now.

After Fang Zhou left, Leng Feng, Zhuo Yue, and their group followed Ma Wei and another accounting officer to the military’s supply warehouse.

The warehouse was filled with mountains of assorted army equipment, whether new or old, dazzling their eyes.

Ma Wei led Leng Feng and his team to the warehouse storing the Radiant Set of Green Excellent Quality, saying kindly: "All here, move them yourselves according to the quantity."

Leng Feng wasn’t bothered by Ma Wei’s change in attitude; following the accounting officer’s instructions, he ordered his warriors to start moving items.
