"Great credit, why didn't I see it?" Huang Yonggui became even more puzzled.

Wang Dehou explained: "The headquarters plan and arranges the third battalion as an ambush in advance, raiding the Japanese artillery positions, turning defeat into victory. This contribution is greater than other contributions, and it is exclusive to the three of us."

"From my understanding of the war zone, in addition to commending the National Salvation Army, they will definitely focus on commending the commander who commanded the battle, namely we and Zhou Cheng."

"Not only will we be promoted to the next level and to our military rank, we will also reward us with a lot of money and increase our support for us, so that we can eliminate more Japanese and puppet troops behind enemy lines and give the war zone chief a face!"

"The war zone gave us the rewards of the National Salvation Army to death, and they will be gone after they are used up."

"Support is different. As long as we can increase the strength of our National Salvation Army, the war zone will definitely send us weapons, ammunition and military expenditures continuously. At that time, it will be more rewards than rewards if you get a little."

The head of the Second World War Zone, the intelligence director and the communications officer agreed, appeared at the command center.

"Sir, we have just received a good news from behind the enemy: the National Rescue Army repelled the attacks of the Japanese and puppet troops against them through two days and one night of battle, eliminated at least 800 Japanese and puppet troops, seized two mountain cannons, two infantry cannons, six mortars, four heavy machine guns, and a large number of crawlers..."

The intelligence director on the side was interrupted by the deputy chief of staff as soon as he was about to speak, and he vetoed without hesitation: "This is impossible!"

"Putting down the National Salvation Army is only a local armed force of a regiment-level scale. It has a total strength of less than 1,000 people and has no equipment for heavy machine guns and mortars. Why can you repel more than 1,000 Japanese and puppet troops from attacks and kill more than 800 Japanese and puppet troops? This is too exaggerated."

"Our main force stationed on the front line may not win against more than a thousand Japanese and puppet troops. They lied about military information like this and were simply using the headquarters as a monkey."

"This trend must not rise. Commander, I suggest that you investigate this matter immediately and confirm that they really lied about the military information, and punish them heavily to serve as a warning to others!"

"I also support killing chickens to warn monkeys, and punishing them heavily." As soon as the Deputy Chief of Staff finished speaking, several people stood up to support them.

They all came from the main force, some were division commanders, and some were senior staff members who had just been transferred from the army.

If a local force deep behind enemy lines could kill so many Japanese and puppet troops, then it would be too embarrassing for them to be the main force.

Chief Yan did not respond. It was because the performance of the main force during this period that disappointed him.

Not only did some troops lose their city and land, but some troops did not even dare to fire their guns when they encountered the Japanese, and they collapsed directly before the war.

Of course, not all main forces cannot fight.

There are also some main forces who fought very well, and they even failed to take a step back even if they were destroyed on the battlefield.

But overall, the war zone still loses more recently and wins less.

In order to rectify military discipline and improve the morale of the troops, Chief Yan killed several officers and transferred several inaction officers to the headquarters as a warning to others, hoping to curb the decline of the troops' defeats.

This does have some effect, but if you want to turn the tide and truly increase the morale of the army, you will eventually have to win the battle.

After listening to the communications staff report, Chief Yan hoped that it was true.

Before he could say anything, his subordinates began to deny the good news one by one, and many people supported this idea.

Don’t they know that the war zone needs a big victory now?

Chief Yan especially wanted to scold them for being so bloody.

After thinking about it, he suppressed his anger and understood why they didn't want to see the National Savior Army win the battle behind enemy lines.

Moreover, the reasons they said sounded reasonable, and in the end, Chief Yan himself believed that the good news was false.

The Chief of Staff suddenly stood up with a very serious expression: "Commander, my thoughts are completely opposite to them. There is at least a 70% chance that this good news will be true."

"Uh?" Chief Yan rekindled hope.

Compared with these senior staff members transferred from the army, Chief Yan is more willing to trust the Chief of Staff.

After following me for several years, I have the ability, and have no prejudice or selfishness towards my subordinates, otherwise I would not be trusted by myself. I stayed in the position of Chief of Staff for several years.

He asked quickly: "Can a regiment-level national-savior army really defeat the strong with the weak and kill so many Japanese and puppet troops?"

The Chief of Staff explained: "Commander, I don't know how they fought this battle, but the results of the victory were written in such a detailed detail that it is almost impossible to fake it."

"Mountain cannons, infantry cannons, mortars, heavy machine guns... Such weapons are also treasures in the hands of the Japanese. Unless the troops are severely damaged, they will never be allowed to fall into the hands of the National Salvation Army."

"As long as the National Salvation Army can provide these evidences, it means that the results they reported are true and the good news is also true."

"Chief of Staff, you're right, I understand!"

Chief Yan was very happy.

He took the telegram from the communications officer and said while reading: "The good news also said that two mountain cannons, two infantry cannons, as well as those mortars, light and heavy machine guns, and rifles were all standard rifles they seized. People have been arranged to send them to the war zone and can be sent to the front-line troops within two days at most."

"They even said the number of weapons clearly and the things were sent. The other content on the victory news must be true!"

"Good fight! A local army of regiment-level scale, without any support behind enemy lines, not only gained a foothold, but also defeated the more with less, eliminated so many Japanese and puppet troops, and completed military achievements that many main forces could not achieve. The headquarters must reward them with great rewards!"

The deputy chief of staff blushed when he heard this. Chief Yan's words just now were obviously slapping him in the face.

But he was not a person who gave up easily, so hesitated for a reminder: "If the good news is true, the headquarters will definitely reward them with great reward."

"But in order not to make any jokes, I beg the commander to be two days late and reward him when we see the evidence."

The commander decided to take this opportunity to hit these officers who claimed to be the main force and nodded in agreement: "Then I'll wait for two days..."

Just as I was about to issue an order, the intelligence officer quit.

"Commander thinks three times, I can be sure that the results of the National Saving Military Newspaper are true. This is the news that our lurking and pacifying intelligence personnel just came. Please check it out!"

Chief Yan was stunned for a moment, but he quickly received the telegram.

After reading it, the smile on his face became stronger. Regardless of what the Deputy Chief of Staff was feeling now, he immediately ordered: "Chief of Staff, immediately inform the entire army of the good news that the National Salvation Army had wiped out more than 800 Japanese and puppet troops. I want to reward them very much."

The Shanxi-Suizhou Army had just retreated to southwest Shanxi, and almost all the family funds that had been acquiring in Taiyuan for more than ten years have moved here.

In addition, the War of Resistance Against Japan has just begun and the family has not yet been established. Chief Yan has a very strong capital, so he will not be stingy if he says he is rewarded.

He picked up the good news again and read it for a minute and ordered: "The War Zone Command took out 20,000 yuan of oceans as a pension for the soldiers who died in the National Salvation Army, and sent it as soon as possible. Then he took out 10,000 yuan of oceans to reward all the officers and soldiers of the National Salvation Army."

"Reward the commander of the National Salvation Army, and the deputy commander and the chief of staff each received one thousand oceans."

"The logistics department prepared 600 rifles, ten light machine guns, four heavy machine guns, four mortars, and five base ammunition to send them together."

"If you prepare some more medicines and send them over, they will eliminate so many Japanese and puppet troops, and the troops will definitely suffer a lot of casualties. The troops are in the enemy-occupied areas and cannot buy medicines even if they have money, so they can only rely on war zone supplies."

At one time, he took out 35,000 oceans and two battalions of equipment to reward a regiment-level enemy-backed armed forces. It is definitely unprecedented in the Second World War Zone. Everyone was frightened by the big money of Chief Yan.

Chief Yan wanted this result and took the opportunity to encourage: "From now on, no matter what troops in our Second World War Zone are, as long as we fight the Japanese with our heart and defend Shanxi, I will not hesitate to reward the old man."

The intelligence officer suddenly interrupted: "Commander, I still have a piece of intelligence here, and I need to report it to you separately."

Chief Yan didn't say nonsense: "Go to my office! Without my orders, no one can get close to you!"

If the Chief of Staff is Chief Yan’s confidant, then the intelligence officer has a higher status in Chief Yan’s heart than the Chief of Staff.

Seeing the other party's serious expression, Chief Yan thought something was wrong. As soon as the door was closed, he asked in a hurry: "What's the matter?"

"Our intelligence personnel accidentally learned that Chongqing has also set an eye on the pacification and rescue army, and have sent people to sneak into the rescue army, and the specific purpose is still unclear!" The intelligence officer took out a piece of intelligence and said in a low voice.

"The National Salvation Army is the army of our World War II Zone. What are they here to join in the fun!" Chief Yan cursed very dissatisfied.

The intelligence officer dared not respond. This was a conflict between Chief Yan and Chongqing, and he was not qualified to intervene.

Two minutes later, Chief Yan suddenly spoke.

"We have given too few rewards to the National Salvation Army."

"Chongqing clearly wants to intervene in North China and win over several troops for their use. North China is from my World War II zone, so they must not let their conspiracy succeed."

After saying that, he walked out of the office and ordered the Chief of Staff: "Immediately increase the commendation from the headquarters to the commander of the National Salvation Army to 5,000 oceans, and the commendation from the deputy commander and the chief of staff to 2,000 oceans."

"In addition, all the officers and soldiers of the National Salvation Army have been promoted to one level, the commander has been promoted to the rank of colonel, the deputy commander and chief of staff have been promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel, the battalion commander has been promoted to the rank of major, and so on."

Chief Yan's reward just now was already a big deal. Unexpectedly, the commander promoted them to the promotion. Everyone showed an inexplicable expression and looked at the intelligence officer.

They are not stupid, and this incident must be related to the information reported by the intelligence officer just now.

Disappointed that everyone could not see any fluctuations in his face, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

The intelligence officer only listened to Chief Yan's orders. If he didn't speak on his own, no one would do anything to him!
Chapter completed!
