After the battle of Nanking, Jiang Jieshi had never smiled again. After the loss of Shanghai, Jiang Jieshi was furious.
If he had listened to the German military advisor at the beginning, he reckoned that Shanghai could have beaten the Japanese, but he wanted international mediation, but the final result was that the League of Nations did not care about him at all.
This made him give up completely. In the end, he could only place his hope on himself.
He had long expected that Nanjing would not be able to hold on. He had never thought that he would be able to hold on.
So in the end, he acquiesced to Sun Yuanliang's retreat. After all, the German Machinists were his elite direct line of descent. There were not many of them left, but he still had to preserve some of his efforts.
"Chairman! Good news!"
Chen Bulei held a telegram and jogged to Jiang Jieshi's side! "Yanji, what's the matter?"
Jiang saw Chen Bulei and asked indifferently!
"Chairman, this is a telegram from Commander Tang Shengzhi! The 522nd regiment defeated the 16th division of the devil army at the Zhonghua Gate of Nanjing City, beheaded the enemy lieutenant general Nakajima Kinsaigo, and seized his general knife.”
Chen Bulei said excitedly! All kinds of bad news had given him a headache over the past few days, and this news was enough to inspire him.
When the chairman heard this, his originally wrinkled face immediately relaxed and gradually became shocked.
"What? Is this true?" The chairman asked incredulously.
"It's true. This is signed by Commander Tang Shengzhi, Luo Zhuoying, and Liu Xing.”Chen Bulei said excitedly.
Jiang took the message and read it carefully! The more he read, the more smiles he had on his face.
At the end, joy filled his face.
"Yanji, this young man is indeed not simple!”Jiang Jieshi said excitedly!
"He actually defeated the 16th division and the 6th division. He even killed the enemy lieutenant general and the chief of staff.”
"So, Chairman, you mean to promote Zhou Weiguo to major general?”Chen Bulei asked carefully.
"This Zhou Weiguo graduated from there?”The chairman asked.
"A ninth batch cadet from the Central Military Academy. He went to the Berlin Military Academy in Germany to further his studies. When he returned, he served as the major and battalion commander of the 522nd Regiment. During the Battle of Shanghai, due to his meritorious service, General Zhang Zhizhong promoted him to the colonel of the 522nd Regiment.”Chen Bulei had obviously done his homework.
"He's actually from the Central Military Academy, so he's considered my student. Oh right, where is he from?”When the chairman heard that it was from the Central Military Academy, his eyes lit up.
"He seems to be from Suzhou, Jiangsu Province. His father is Mr. Zhou Jixian, who was once a founding member of the Alliance.”Chen Bulei said.
"So you're the descendant of a party and state elder, and you're also a graduate of the Central Military Academy.”the chairman said.
"What do you think, Chairman?"
"En, I think so! After all, the credit was there! Oh right, get the reporter from Zhongyang to interview him! Then, he would publish some articles on the fishing boat to publicize the determination of the party and the country to resist the war.”Jiang Jieshi's words directly made the decision. Basically, this major general division commander was a done deal.
Most importantly, Chen Bulei's family had a certain relationship with Zhou Jixian, so he naturally had to help when he saw that Zhou Jixian was the descendant of a friend.
"Ask Ci Xiu and Jing Zhi to come and discuss this matter together!”Jiang Jieshi added.
After seeing Chen Bulei leave, Jiang sighed! Losing cities and lands along the way had caused his reputation to drop a lot. Many people in the party were dissatisfied with him.
Wang Jingwei had even called for the parliament to impeach him, so he had a headache. However, the frontline troops had been defeated one after another, which disappointed him.
Now that someone had actually killed the lieutenant general of the Japanese and relieved the safety of the two city gates, this was undoubtedly the greatest comfort to Baldy Jiang.
As expected of his student. In the end, his student was still reliable. Those inferior brands were still unreliable.
"Chairman!" He Yingqin and Chen Cheng shouted!
"You guys are here. Take a look at this first!”Jiang handed the telegram to He Yingqin! He Yingqin looked at it and passed it to Chen Cheng!
"Do you have any objections to me promoting him to major general?" asked Jiang.”
"No, just killing a lieutenant general is enough for him to be promoted to major general. The only problem is that he is too young.”Who was He Yingqin? He naturally understood Baldy Jiang's intentions. Seeing that he was a student of the Central Military Academy and had obtained such great merit, he would definitely promote him.
"Hmm, age is not a problem. Weren't you young when you were corps commanders? Aren't you all corps commanders or commanders of the theater of operations now?”Baldy Jiang said unhappily.
"You are right, chairman." He Yingqin lowered his head.
"Cixiu, what do you think?" Jiang asked.
"No objections. After all, we need to boost the morale of the army now. Otherwise, it will be detrimental to the overall situation of the war in the future.”Chen Cheng immediately agreed. Since he could form his own faction, he could naturally figure out the old man's thoughts.
"Since both of you have no objections, then cancel the 522nd Regiment and expand it into an A Division. It will be called an independent division, with three infantry brigades and one artillery regiment under its jurisdiction! I will settle everything by myself." Jiang said.
"In addition, you will be rewarded with 100,000 dollars and 1,000 spears.”Baldy Jiang added when he thought about how he had just promoted her and was already not giving her anything.
"Where is Zhang Lingfu?" Chen Cheng said from the side.
"He will be promoted to the rank of colonel and vice division commander, and his troops will be incorporated into an independent division.”Baldy Jiang thought for a while and said directly.
"You are wise!" He Yingqin and Chen Cheng looked at each other and shouted.
