"According to the information sent back by our intelligence personnel in the Jiaodong Peninsula area, Zhou Weiguo's information is true. Yesterday, they fought with the Japanese army outside Laiyang County. After nearly seven hours of fighting, they finally eliminated more than 3,000 Japanese troops and recovered Laiyang County. And its commander was Zhou Weiguo.
According to our intelligence, this person is not an impostor. He is indeed the colonel of the 87th Division of the 9th Army. His father is Zhou Jixian. At the time of the 128th Incident, he was a top student at Fudan University in Shanghai. A woman shot and killed a Japanese man. At that time, the situation forced him to shoot him.
Later, his father used the method of transplanting flowers and trees to save him. From then on, Zhou Wen changed his name to Zhou Weiguo and entered Huangpu Military Academy's ninth semester…"
Dai Yunong, the direct confidant of the chairman, was reading a document. Not only was the chairman around, but the military and political minister, He Jingzhi, and others were also around.
After a long time, Dai Yunong finished reading the information he had investigated. She looked up at Old Jiang, who was obviously very happy.
"Not bad! Not bad! As expected of my student. To be able to think of protecting the country and expelling the Japanese invaders when he was wandering, he did not forget the Huangpu spirit. But his father, Zhou Jixian…"
When Old Jiang said this, he couldn't help but frown. He remembered that Zhou Jixian seemed to have defected to the Japanese army and was now the chairman of Suzhou's maintenance committee. At that time, this matter caused a great uproar in the party.
Although Zhou Jixian did not have any substantial power in the party, he was a veteran of the Congress Party and his prestige in the party was too high. Even the Minister of Military Affairs, He Jingzhi, had to respectfully address Zhou Jixian as Mr. Zhou when he saw him. Even if he saw him, he couldn't show off his prestige and experience.
Moreover, he had connections all over the Congress Party and had great influence in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. In addition, he was born into a scholarly family and his family was one of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang consortia. He had a great impression in the education, business, and political circles.
So when he thought of this, he frowned.
Dai Yunong looked at Old Jiang and said in a deep voice,"Principal, there's something I need to tell you. Mr. Zhou did not really join the Japanese army. He was only pretending to join the Japanese army, but he was secretly working for us. Many of our previous operations in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were completed with the help of Mr. Zhou.
Because this matter is of great importance and concerns Mr. Zhou's safety, I have not made a public announcement.”
Old Jiang's face revealed a gratified expression after hearing that. Then, he looked at He Jingzhi and his think tank, Chen Bulei, and said,"" Don't tell anyone about this. If this matter is leaked..."
Although he didn't say anything else, He Jingzhi and Chen Bulei both understood that they couldn't tell anyone about this matter, so they naturally nodded in agreement.
"Jingzhi, go down and draft a telegram. From today onwards, the 78th division of the National Revolutionary Army will be reorganized. The commander of the 78th Division was transferred to the other infantry divisions.
Zhou Weiguo was promoted to the commander of the 78th Division, promoted to the rank of major general, and awarded the Zhongzheng Sword. The specific number under its jurisdiction will be decided by it and reported to the Ministry of Military Affairs. At the same time, from today onwards, the 78th Division will be directly under my jurisdiction. No one is allowed to interfere.”
The promotion telegram was finished, but was that all?
Then, Old Jiang turned to look at Chen Bulei and said,""Yanji, from now on, your news department will start to publicize Zhou Weiguo in the Kuomintang-ruled area. This is the first city that our army has recovered. Although it's only a county, it has great significance and must be publicized. At the same time, they would publicize Zhou Weiguo's life story.”
As the first city to be recovered after the war, although it was only a county, it was a very important thing for the Chinese army and the people.
After a series of failures, it was already great news that they were able to recover a county.
Perhaps some people can't feel this, but I'll use a simple analogy.
For example, if it was just a steamed bun, you wouldn't even eat it. You wanted big fish and meat, and you wanted side dishes.
However, if you were to starve for a day, you would probably be so happy that you would die if you were given this piece of steamed bun. Moreover, you would be able to swallow two steamed buns in one bite. This was what Old Jiang was thinking.
·············
Old Jiang's orders were carried out very thoroughly. After he went down, the entire Kuomintang-ruled area was promoting Zhou Weiguo and his Battle of Laiyang.
You could see the news about Zhou Weiguo in the entire newspaper, and all the newspapers had received the news that they had to report on Zhou Weiguo in full. Whoever doesn't report the entire article hehe! Then you'll be targeted by the government. By then, they might come looking for trouble with you every day.
It was under such circumstances that Zhou Weiguo became a household name in the Kuomintang-ruled area in a short period of time.
To Old Jiang, among the many generals in the national army, there was no one else who was the most upright and upright except Zhou Weiguo. He grew up under the shade of the Congress Party and was deeply educated by the Congress Party. His father was also a veteran of the Congress Party.
It wasn't enough to say that he was a righteous person. There were so many elders in the Congress Party. It wasn't that they didn't have descendants. It was just that those descendants were either playboys or went into business. None of them joined the army.
But now, there was a person who had even established the glory of regaining the first city since the war. How could Old Jiang not publicize it well?
One had to know that there were some people in the Black Congress behind the scenes who said that the National Congress was fighting against experts and outsiders. Every time they fought, they would lose. How could Old Jiang not be angry?
While the Kuomintang-controlled area was promoting Zhou Weiguo all over the world, Zhou Weiguo was currently inspecting the Japanese army's material warehouse.
"Master, take a look. This is the Japanese army's material warehouse. We have already calculated that there are a total of 30,000 sets of winter clothing and ammunition for about one division of the Japanese army!”
Xu Hu said as he stood behind Zhou Weiguo.
"So many winter clothes? There was still so much ammunition? Could it be that the Japanese army was using this place as a warehouse for supplies? But why did it have to be stored here? As far as I know, the southwest of Laiyang County is Qing Dao. Why would they store it here?”
Zhou Weiguo frowned. So many supplies were definitely not for the Laiyang Japanese army's own use. They must be transit supplies.
