After arriving at the division headquarters, Chief of Staff Xiong naturally represented the Independent Regiment and participated in the emergency meeting.
As for Chen Yuan, he was led by the division staff officer to rest and eat. The comrades of the regiment guard company also followed Chen Yuan and the others.
During
the division headquarters 'meeting, Staff Officer Xiong also relayed Li Feng's words to the division headquarters' leaders. When the division headquarters 'leaders heard Li Feng's words, they all agreed.
Deputy Division Commander Nie smiled and said,""I didn't expect Li Feng to have such strategic foresight.”
"Just like what he said, once we announce to the public that the Japanese are using poison gas bombs and that we still have these bombs, the Japanese will be afraid that we will use these bombs on their troops.”
"At the same time, they have to be wary of the international influence. As long as we respond appropriately, we can at least ensure that the Japanese will not use poison gas bombs on the battlefield of the upcoming Xinkou Battle.”
As soon as Vice Teacher Nie finished speaking, a master teacher leader beside him added,""Moreover, the Japanese didn't admit that they used poison gas bombs. Now that we've seized their gas bombs, I'll see how they're going to defend themselves.”
The meeting at the division headquarters did not last long. To them, the significance of the poison gas bomb was not something they could interfere with.
Therefore, they quickly suppressed the matter and reported it to the Eighth Route Army headquarters by telegram. They handed it over to the Eighth Route Army headquarters to discuss with the commander of the Second World War area.
After reporting it to the headquarters, the headquarters also attached great importance to it. At this time, the commander-in-chief was in Dayuan City. He immediately went to the commander's office in the Second World War Area with Deputy Leader Zhou to see King Xishan.
After discussing with the West Mountain King and the other people in the Second World War Area, everyone quickly reached an agreement to fight the Japanese around the poisonous gas bombs.
This would make the Japanese unable to take care of themselves and prevent them from using poison gas bombs on the front line of the Xinkou Battle.
At this time, the Second World War Area and the Eighth Route Army were in the honeymoon period of cooperation.
This batch of poisonous gas bombs had solved a big problem for the troops in the Second World War Zone. The King of the West Mountain, who was stingy with money, was also very generous at this time.
In front of the commander-in-chief and Deputy Leader Zhou, he said,"It's all thanks to our Eighth Route Army this time. Otherwise, with the Japanese's personality, they would definitely use poison gas bombs on our frontline troops.”
"They have made a great contribution. On behalf of the Second World War Area, I will give the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army a commendation order. At the same time, I will reward the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army with a mortar company and 100,000 French coins.”
The Commander-in-Chief and Deputy Leader Zhou naturally accepted King Xishan's generosity with a smile.
After discussing with King Xishan, the commander-in-chief and Deputy Leader Zhou returned to the residence and sent a telegram to the 115th Division.
In addition to asking the 115th Division to send people to hand over the gas bombs to the Jin (2) Sui Army, the telegram also told the 115th Division to remember to bring a mortar company's equipment and 100,000 French coins when handing over to the Jin (2) Sui Army.
In the telegram from the headquarters, apart from that, there was also a commendation order issued by the headquarters.
Because the Independent Regiment was considered a supernumerary force, when the Commander-in-Chief and Deputy Leader Zhou spoke to King Xishan again, they did not mention the name of the Independent Regiment. They only replaced it with the 115th Division.
However, the Commander-in-Chief and Deputy Leader Zhou knew that it was the Independent Regiment. They also knew that the poison gas bombs were seized by the Independent Regiment's First Battalion, First Company, and Third Platoon.
Therefore, in the name of the headquarters, they personally gave Li Feng's third platoon a second-class merit.
"Haha!"
In the command center, the leaders of the division looked at the telegram from headquarters and laughed out loud.
"We're all basking in Comrade Li Feng's glory!”Director Luo smiled and said,"He seized a truck full of Japanese gas bombs. In the end, we got 100,000 French coins and a mortar company's weapons and equipment.”
As soon as Director Luo finished speaking, Teacher Lin, who had been silent all this while, spoke up at this moment,"I heard that Li Feng's third platoon is a super-sized platoon.”
"And there are a lot of people who were recruited from the national army. Why don't we give him a squad of veterans from the division's security company?”
As soon as Division Commander Lin made this suggestion, Deputy Division Commander Nie immediately nodded and said,"I agree with the commander's suggestion. Indeed, he needs to fill in some old comrades, especially party members.”
Therefore, under the discussion of the division leaders, in addition to the second-class collective merit awarded by the headquarters, the division headquarters awarded the third platoon a second-class collective merit and a veteran Red Army class to supplement the lack of veterans and party members in the third platoon.
Li
Feng, who was far away in Little Liu Village, naturally didn't know about the reward from the division headquarters. If he knew that the division headquarters had given him a veteran Red Army squad, he would definitely jump for joy.
Every veteran Red Army soldier who had experienced the Long March was a treasure. If they were pulled out, they could be the squad leader or platoon leader.
Moreover, these old Red Army soldiers were all determined. If they could join the Third Platoon, it would definitely be a good supplement for the Third Platoon.
With these tough bones, he could guarantee that his Third Platoon would become a tough and resilient force.
That
night, Chen Yuan and the soldiers from the reconnaissance squad stayed at the division headquarters to rest for a night. The next morning, they returned to the regimental headquarters with Staff Officer Xiong.
When they left, there was also a squad of old Red Army soldiers from the Division Headquarters Guard Company.
Chief of Staff Xiong informed the regiment commander and the certification committee about the situation in the division headquarters. When the regiment commander and certification committee heard Chief of Staff Xiong say that the headquarters had given Third Platoon a collective second-class merit, the division headquarters had also given them a collective second-class merit and other rewards.
"Bada!"
Especially when the regiment commander saw that the division headquarters rewarded Li Feng with a veteran Red Army class, he smacked his lips in envy.
"Old Luo, the headquarters and the division headquarters have given the scholar a reward. Shouldn't we also show our gratitude?”Regiment Commander Yang Wu looked at the Luo Zheng (2) Committee and asked.
"Indeed, Scholar has brought glory to our independent regiment. It would be a little unreasonable if we don't express our gratitude.”
Hearing Regiment Commander Yang Wu's question, Luo Zheng (2) thought for a moment and then said,"But what should we reward the scholar with?”
"Weapons and equipment? This kid had already destroyed a Japanese transport squadron, so he definitely did not lack weapons and equipment.”
"Veteran soldier? This time, our Independent Regiment has recruited many new recruits. We lack veterans, so we can't give them to him.”
At this point, Luo Zheng (2) looked at Regiment Commander Yang Wu and spread his hands,"Guild Leader, do as you see fit. I really don't know what to reward.”
Hearing the words of the Luo Zheng (2) Committee, Captain Yang Wu couldn't help but scratch his head, his face was also conflicted.
In the end, he sighed."Forget it. We just happen to be cooperating with the main battlefield. The troops have to gather. When this kid comes, ask him what he wants. Then we'll make a decision!”After thinking about it, Regiment Commander Yang Wu finally gave up.
Following that, Regiment Commander Yang Wu and the Luo Zheng (2) Committee personally met with Chen Yuan.
"Comrade Chen Yuan, we were going to send someone to inform the troops to gather at the regiment headquarters.”
"Since you're going back, you can pass by your battalion and company headquarters and tell them this news. Order all the troops to arrive at the regimental headquarters before the evening of the day after tomorrow.”
When Chen Yuan heard the regiment commander's words, he immediately nodded and saluted the regiment leaders. Then, he left the regiment headquarters with the reconnaissance squad and headed back.
Passing by the battalion and company headquarters, he passed on this news.
At the same time, it was inevitable that he would be questioned by the battalion commander, instructor, company commander, and instructor. Chen Yuan also explained the specific situation.
Hearing Chen Yuan's words, they were so happy that their mouths cracked open. They did not care about Li Feng's report at all.
They naturally understood that special circumstances would require special treatment.
Finally, in the evening, Chen Yuan brought the soldiers of the reconnaissance squad and the old Red Army soldiers of the division guard company. They returned to Liu Zhuang, who had been away for two days and two nights.
However, when they entered Little Liu Village, they were shocked by the scene in Little Liu Village. More than 20 people stood at the entrance of the village in a daze, not knowing what to do.
