Chapter 185 Becoming famous? !
Qin Hai is a rising star after all.
He achieved many outstanding feats in a short period of time, and was awarded the rank of major general by the government because of this achievement.
Look at this boy, so handsome.
If some of the old veterans of the Eighth Route Army become jealous of him, they would be disgusted even if he didn't have to do anything.
This is what the old man thinks is "overpraising to death".
"Okay, what are you still standing there for? Get out now and send this commendation telegram to the Eighth Route Army!" Looking at the officers who kept their heads down and remained silent, the old man said with a look of disappointment on his face.
Looking at his men,
Think about the Guard Corps again. The gap is simply a world of difference. Why can't I have a Qin Hai under my command?
I heard the old man chased people away.
The officers and generals bowed their heads and left the command room in disgrace.
After this battle,
The name Qin Hai will be deeply engraved in their hearts.
They couldn't figure it out.
I heard that Qin Hai is a very young guy, only in his early twenties. How could he build a guard regiment at such a young age and achieve so many remarkable achievements?
Is he really born to be a general?
Thinking of this time,
The Guards Regiment not only captured the Zichang Line, but also wiped out the Japanese battlefield tour group, which included not only a Japanese major general, but also more than 200 Japanese officers in total.
Is all this just a coincidence?
"Ah..." The officers looked at each other and saw fatigue and helplessness in each other's eyes.
Simultaneously,
Regarding the government's commendation telegram,
After being translated by the signalman, it was quickly sent to the general headquarters.
"Report, a telegram from the government!"
The leaders in the command room were still talking and speculating about what rewards the government would give.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, a telegram arrived.
"Haha!" The Chief of General Staff took the telegram with a smile, took a quick look at it, and immediately exclaimed.
Hearing this,
The leaders in the command room pricked up their ears, wanting to hear the government's attitude.
"The old man spent a lot of money this time. I didn't expect both sides to be so generous. More than 20 mortars, 50 grenade launchers, and 100 light and heavy machine guns. This is the first time I've seen the old man be so generous in such a long time!"
The Deputy Chief of General Staff's words were a bit sarcastic, but more of it was emotional.
Because this time,
These government awards are real, hard stuff, unlike the empty medals of honor in the past.
As soon as this word comes out,
All the leaders smiled and nodded, without any surprise in their eyes.
The government gave such a good reward entirely because the Second War Zone took the initiative.
If the rewards are not as good as those of the Second War Zone, what will the people think? What will Old Man Yan think?
The two sides were secretly competing with each other.
In order not to lose face, I had to go ahead with it, which was a huge expense.
When all the leaders nodded in agreement with a smile,
The deputy commander sneered and said, "I think this old man has bad intentions. He gave so many rewards. Even if it is to save the government's face, there is no need to give Qin Hai the rank of major general."
"This is not empty talk. The government's rank of major general is very valuable." The deputy commander-in-chief said jokingly.
But all the leaders on the scene understood the deputy commander-in-chief's hidden meaning.
It's obvious.
The old man obviously wanted to use the method of flattery to kill Qin Hai. After all, as a rising star, Qin Hai has been in the limelight recently, and the names of the jury and Qin Hai are now almost household names.
This old man's trick,
On the surface, the rewards seem generous, but in fact, the defenses are tight in secret.
After hearing the deputy commander-in-chief's joke, Deputy Director Liu also responded with a smile.
"No wonder this old man only gave Qin Hai the rank of major general. He could have upgraded the guard regiment to a guard brigade, but he refused and just sent us away with the rank of major general."
"I'm afraid the old man must have lost a lot of hair after coming up with this trick!"
Although Deputy Director Liu was joking,
But if you really meet the old man, you will find that there are very few hairs left on his head.
"Hahaha!"
Everyone was amused by Deputy Director Liu's teasing, and the command room was suddenly filled with laughter.
Whether it is the old king of hell in the Second World War,
They are still the heads of the government. These two old guys are not easy to deal with. They are the same kind of people.
Time passes quietly,
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
As soon as the Eighth Route Army Headquarters issued the order, all major newspapers did not dare to delay and immediately spread the results of the battle throughout the country via telegram.
of course,
The Second War Zone and the Pidu government are also actively promoting this matter.
Although it was not their battle, as they were on the same front, they had the responsibility and obligation to publicize it.
"Have you heard? The Eighth Route Army has won another victory, and it's the Guards Regiment again!"
"You just found out. This time the guards corps completely wiped out the Japanese battlefield observation corps. I also heard that they killed a Japanese major general!"
"It's really refreshing. To defeat the Japanese, we have to rely on the Eighth Route Army!"
"..."
For a time,
The whole country was in an uproar.
It has only been two months since the last Battle of Yaozigou, but I didn’t expect the Guards Regiment to win another battle so soon.
And this time,
It is said that many Japanese officers were killed, including a major general.
For ordinary people,
They didn't know how high a rank a major general was, but they were naturally happy that the Eighth Route Army had won the battle.
With the hype,
Many of the Guards' deeds quickly made their way into the newspapers, especially those from previous battles.
Whether it was the previous ambush,
Or the Battle of Yaozigou?
The Guards Regiment has never been defeated so far, which means that it has never lost since its establishment!
I also heard that
The commander of the guard regiment, Qin Hai, was actually a young man in his early twenties. Yet, at such a young age, he was able to lead his troops to victory in battles one after another.
soon,
The people in the country all knew his name, and many people were curious about this new general who would fight the Japanese and wanted to see what he looked like.
of course,
Once this incident happened,
The sentiment to fight against the Japanese was high across the country, and the people had only anger and disgust towards the invading Japanese.
The Japanese's actions were extremely cruel, worse than pigs and dogs.
Although they shouted "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere", the people's eyes were sharp. No matter how loud the slogans were, their actions would only make everyone hate them.
then,
Major newspapers took advantage of the situation and applied for exclusive interviews with the Second War Zone.
As the anti-Japanese sentiment in the country grew,
All the officers and soldiers of the Guard Regiment were extremely excited.
This time, not only did we win a great victory, but we also killed so many Japanese officers in one fell swoop.
more importantly,
They became famous this time, and Qin Hai's name became a good topic among people.
Every officer and soldier in their guard regiment received collective honors from the Second War Zone and the government.
Although Qin Hai didn't care much about this kind of false reputation,
But for the soldiers of the Guards Regiment, this was an honor, at least it showed that the Second War Zone and the government positively recognized their sacrifices and achievements.
that's enough.
After the large army evacuated the base,
Qin Hai, accompanied by the deputy commander of the guard regiment Wu Boming and the first-level chief of staff Xu Guobing, arrived at the Eighth Route Army headquarters on horseback at noon.
It was lunch time.
The smell of food wafted through the headquarters. Qin Hai had not been idle along the way. When he smelled the aroma, his stomach started to growl.
Arriving at the headquarters gate,
Some people were waiting early.
