Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 310

Seeing the tears flickering in the eyes of Tang Dao, who has always been tough and rarely reveals his inner emotions, Lieutenant General Wu and Lieutenant Guo looked at each other, apparently very satisfied with their decision.

You know, 20 minutes ago, Lieutenant General Wu, who received the smooth return of Cangcheng front-line officers and soldiers, asked the generals who were holding a military meeting: "Tang Dao and Cangcheng front-line soldiers are back. How should we reward them?"

As soon as this remark came out, the generals were all in a good mood.

Lieutenant General Jin Shaobi, commander of the 67th Division of the 107th Army, was the first to suggest: "The frontline soldiers in Cangcheng fought bitterly, but the annihilation of the Japanese army was beyond imagination. In my opinion, it is better to be like the Songjiang Security Regiment. Promote a rank?"

On the other side, Lieutenant General Zhang Wenqing, the commander of the 108th Division, did not change his face, but his eyes showed gratitude.

Because the main force participating in the battle of Cangcheng this time was the 108 regiment under his 644th division, if this reward method can be achieved, it can be regarded as the compensation he, the division commander, is fighting for his subordinates.

The first-level military rank represents not only personal honor, but also an increase in pensions.

The four major generals and brigade commanders sitting next to the two lieutenant generals and division commanders of the 67th Army all nodded in support, and the two brigade commanders of the 43rd Army were no exception.

This argument that the promotion of military ranks is used as encouragement has almost received an overwhelming support rate.

"No, the Songjiang security regiment is an irregular army, and the local government is responsible for the compensation. We can promote their military rank at will. We just need to report to the theater headquarters for the record. But our Cangcheng garrison is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Military Affairs, especially Tang Daozhong. The colonel and the other two major battalion commanders are colonel officers. Even if our army wants to promote their ranks, they must first report to the theater command and obtain permission.

Besides, as soon as the precedent of promoting morale is set, the commanders of all regiments and brigades will all come to ask my Songjiang headquarters to raise their military ranks because of their bravery in combat. Shall we mention it or not?
Even if we are all willing to mention it, what about the theater command?What about the Ministry of Military Affairs?Will they think that our army is suspected of taking advantage of the defensive position to threaten it?

Regardless of whether it is against the top or the bottom, I personally think that this reward method is beneficial and harmless to the decisive battle with the Japanese army that Songjiang is about to usher in. "Major General Wu Tong, the chief of staff of the 67th Army, raised objections.

This high-ranking major general and chief of staff did not deliberately sing against the two lieutenant generals and division commanders who hold heavy troops.

Because he looked at the problem from a higher level, the 67th Army was originally a thorn in the side of the top guy, and suddenly asked to be promoted to a large number of ranks during such a big battle. Well, it's still unknown whether he will settle accounts in the future, or even simply smear his face and refuse to admit it.

In other words, he did not represent his own opinion, but the opinion of the highest officer of the Songjiang Command, but it was not convenient for him to speak out.

The atmosphere of the venue froze for a while.

The generals also know that this possibility is not just speculation, on the contrary, it is likely to be the case.

It's just that the generals, who are usually quite flexible in their minds, are a little numb. They really can't think of any other suitable rewards for the frontline soldiers who have fought the Japanese fiercely other than being promoted to the rank.

Is it just rewarding Xian Dayang?That's really useless.After this battle is over, it is not known how many people will be alive, and the oceans on the dead will not be sent back to their hometown in all likelihood.

Perhaps the most useless thing on the battlefield is money.

After a long time, General Wu slapped his hands and said, "You all can't think of a suitable solution, so you might as well follow my advice!

The matter of promotion to the military rank is handled in this way. The promotion of a school officer requires the approval of the Ministry of Military Affairs, so we will not be promoted to a school officer. All officers and soldiers below the captain will be promoted to one level.For those who didn't get promoted, I don't need to say, you who are teachers and brigade commanders also know what to do.

But I think that just being promoted to the military rank is not enough. Nearly 600 people were killed on the front line of Cangcheng, but more than 2000 enemies were killed.

I suggest, everyone here, give a military salute to the frontline army in Cangcheng!On behalf of all the officers and soldiers of Songjiang, what do you think? "

All the generals were shocked, this treatment is not ordinary high.

However, since the supreme commander proposed this extra-standard courtesy, the deputy commander-in-chief on one side also nodded in agreement, and naturally no one objected ignorantly.

That's why there was a scene where Tang Dao saluted and no one returned the salute.

Because the generals here are not paying back, but saluting.

In the way of soldiers, pay tribute to the army of Cangcheng who returned from the hard battle.

Several school officers and lieutenants waiting in front of the command department were also waiting anxiously, but a few minutes later, the shocking news that all the generals in Songjiang City saluted their commander, Lieutenant Colonel Tang Dao, came.

I'm going to heaven!When Peng Chong followed Tang Dao to the temporary garrison of the Cangcheng garrison, his whole body was floating.

Not to mention him, it was the other two major battalion commanders who never closed their mouths along the way.

No mention of military rank is a fart!All the generals here in Songjiang City saluted me, this old man can boast for a lifetime.

Tang Dao and a group of officers returned to the temporary station assigned to them. The cooking team of the 644th regiment had tried their best to deliver food. White flour steamed buns are paired with two taels of white wine, which is absolutely sumptuous at this time of war.

The security team who returned to Songjiang City before them also basically received this treatment. After experiencing life and death, the security team who were used to delicious food and drink, didn't they eat this kind of food that they couldn't eat before, so they were full of greasy food. Fun?
It's just that, including the wounded, all soldiers are waiting for their commander, waiting for Tang Dao and several officers to return from the headquarters.

It's not to wait for a new military order, but after this day and night of fighting, they have completely integrated into one body, so is there any reason to leave their brothers and eat alone?

"Wait until we mess up, if you're not hungry, I'll be very hungry." Tang Dao, who stepped into the air-raid shelter, reached out and picked up a steamed bun to pick up the broth, and started to make it by himself.

The so-called over-hungry without the feeling of hunger means that it doesn't take much effort. Let him try to eat two cold pancakes for a day and a night?Tang Dao, who had expended a lot of physical and mental energy, felt that he could swallow a cow now.

After eating half full in one go, seeing that the soldiers who were also devouring the food in front of them almost finished their food, Tang Dao waved his hand and asked Peng Chong to read out the military order of the headquarters.

"Decree of the Songjiang Headquarters: All officers in the frontline of Cangcheng, except captains, majors, and lieutenant colonels, will be suspended from promotion, and everyone else will be promoted to one level of military rank; pensions for the disabled and those who died in battle will be issued according to the newly promoted ranks!"

The audience thundered with cheers!

"In addition, in view of the heroic combat of the entire army in the Cangcheng position, and the fact that it is impossible to kill the enemy, the headquarters has discussed and decided that the entire army in the Cangcheng position will not be returned to the establishment for the time being, and a garrison battalion directly under the Songjiang headquarters will be established on the spot. The garrison battalion has a staff of 800 In addition to the combatable soldiers remaining in the Cangcheng position, the remaining supplementary personnel, below the rank of lieutenant colonel, are selected by Tang Dao, the battalion commander of the garrison battalion. Cooperate fully, don't shirk and obstruct, order of Songjiang Headquarters!"

There was a moment of silence, and the cheers were louder than before.

The Cangcheng garrison was originally composed of two parts, the 67th Army and the 43rd Army, and it would have been built after completing the Cangcheng combat mission.

The surviving 200 people, after going through this bloody battlefield, went from being unfamiliar to being familiar to fighting side by side.

Although Songjiang City is not big, everyone knows that the battle is imminent, life and death depend on destiny, and after each returns to construction, it may be a farewell.

Now, the big guys can still fight together, that would be great.

Moreover, the commander of the garrison battalion directly under the command headquarters is a lieutenant colonel. In terms of specifications, it is much higher than that of ordinary infantry battalions, which means that the standard of equipment and equipment will also be higher.With the equipment in place, the chances of saving your life are naturally greater.

Soldiers who have been in the army for a long time are also familiar with these methods.

Perhaps this military order is more joyful to those who have experienced life and death than the previous promotion order.

But what makes them happy is much more than that.

The broadcasts placed in various air-raid shelters began to rustle, which meant that the headquarters had some important news to announce.

The Songjiang defenders are now accustomed to this very 'advanced' live broadcast on the battlefield, especially the gentle and heroic voice of the big reporter Tantai, which is what many Songjiang defenders look forward to.

Although many people have never actually met that great reporter, but his voice is like a person, which does not prevent them from drawing Tantai Mingyue as they want in their minds.

To put it bluntly, Tantai Mingyue is the goddess in the hearts of more than [-] defenders in Songjiang.

The voice of the goddess is about to appear, and whoever cheers foolishly at this moment is a big fool.

There are quite a few such idiots, for example, the only surviving signal soldier under the young deputy squad leader Qian Dazhu, since he heard that he was promoted to a private, he has been showing his teeth.

At this moment, Qian Dazhu naturally imitated his old squad leader, and slapped him on the back of the head: "You son of a bitch, what a fool!"

The little messenger fell silent.

It wasn't because he was scolded by the monitor, but because he saw the tears suddenly flashing in the eyes of the monitor who was not much older than himself.

He knew that the squad leader thought of the squad leader again.

In his infantry squad, there is only a sergeant squad leader and a private first class who have just been promoted.

More precisely, its own infantry platoon.
