Rise From Eight Hundred

Of course, Wu and Guo have been struggling in the murky waters of the officialdom for twenty years, so they naturally understand well that "it's so easy to say something so stupid if you take the horse's peas away!" ’ principle.

Before the Independent Battalion Headquarters could report their military exploits, all kinds of weapons and ammunition seized from the battlefield were still being loaded here. Over there, the Chief of Staff of the 67th Army came with a bunch of seals signed by Wu, Guo, and Gu. The sealed certificate and a box of Xin Da Yang came over.

Now that Dayang has given him a lot, a box must contain ten thousand Dayang. These were all taken from the inner treasury of the Songjiang County Government when he left Songjiang.

At the beginning, the bosses were all excited for a while. It was said that if you have money in your hands, you don't have to panic. You can buy supplies along the way or give rewards to meritorious officers and soldiers.

It was only when they arrived in Jiashan that the big bosses tragically discovered that in this time of war and chaos, money was really not as useful as food. The quartermaster carried a box full of silver and went around the villages and small towns behind the defense line. Circle, the grain purchased was not enough for two carts.

As for the rewards given to meritorious soldiers, the soldiers were already exhausted carrying guns, grenades, uniforms, and heavy food bags. If they were to find the ocean, it would just add to the burden. Moreover, this thing is currently not available for purchase, and the officers and soldiers don’t know when they will die. If they are too tired to carry it with them, they may become Japanese trophies that day. Except for a few who are obsessed with money. , most willingness to take cash is also rapidly fading.

Not to mention the soldiers, even the relief refugees, the hungry refugees, only looked at the food with their eyes shining, and the shining ocean was not so attractive anymore.

The three big guys discussed it and decided that just a certificate of meritorious service would not fool anyone. Throwing 10,000 yuan over it would be enough to stop Tang Dao's mouth.

As everyone knows, compared to Tang Dao, which has no shortage of equipment, the Japanese light firearms, guns and ammunition are far less practical than the seemingly useless modern weapons.

Because after that, the whole army mainly ran away and ran away, but there were not many battles.

Of course Tang Dao wanted to save Jinling, which was about to face a huge disaster. He even took the huge risk of exposing his origins two days ago and talked with Tantai Mingyue for half a night, talking about the disaster that Jinling was about to face in the future.

In the eyes of the second-class Niu people who were responsible for protecting them, the man and woman were sitting in the trench under the moon talking to each other. They would know that Tang Dao was speaking in an extremely serious manner about the heart-wrenching disaster that the big city was about to suffer. suffering.

Tang Dao knew that in terms of military affairs, although he was now an army colonel commanding nearly a thousand people and had a certain influence on two army lieutenant generals commanding an army of 20,000 people, facing the dispatch of up to seven divisions of infantry and The Japanese in both fleets and navies are still as weak as a piece of paper.

Even if they knew the inevitability of history in advance and were willing to live and die with this city, they would just become a series of enemy annihilation figures on the Japanese army's battle report.

The truth is cruel, but what is even more cruel is knowing the truth but having to watch it happen. For a man and woman under the moonlight, they must have a strength that is unimaginable to ordinary people.

History has proven that those at the top of the pyramid are incompetent. Tang Dao knows that it is useless to look for them. If he wants to change something, he must rely on the power of the people.

Tang Dao hoped to use Tantai Mingyue's influence in the newspaper to tell those people who were unwilling to evacuate what was waiting for them.

The 18th Division is still firmly blocked by the Jiashan defense line. Jiaxing, Guangde, Xuancheng and Wuhu have not yet been lost. The people in Jinling City still have time to evacuate through the north bank of the Yangtze River to Jiujiang, Jiangxia and other cities in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

Otherwise, when the Japanese army captures Wuhu, no one in Jinling will be able to escape, especially after that stupid city defense commander ordered all ships to be burned, and no one will be able to cross the Yangtze River and leave that hell.

Tang Dao's tragic prediction about the future will undoubtedly shock people to the point of inconceivability. I'm afraid the Japanese army themselves won't believe it. The ugliness and ferocity of human nature will certainly not be revealed under the maintenance of military discipline.

But if those who make these rules tell them that you can do it, their animal nature will of course break out and become a group of devils that are even more brutal than beasts.

Tantai Mingyue also found it difficult to believe this prophecy, but she still chose to believe in Tang Dao, even though the Japanese army had not shown all their beast-like ferocity to the world so far.

She also understood to some extent why Tang Dao showed no mercy in the face of the Japanese army. No matter he knelt down and begged for surrender or was seriously injured and waiting to die, Tang Dao on the battlefield was as indifferent as his name. All he could see was the light of the sword and only the shadow of blood.

She hoped that this prophecy would not come true, but she had to do something for those innocent people.

For two consecutive days, she wrote furiously, trying her best to ask the people in Jinling City to leave without causing huge panic.

During the war, even big newspapers cannot report as they please. Even a well-known war correspondent like Tantai Mingyue will naturally have unimpeded access to her war diary because of political needs. However, she is trying to appeal to the people in Jinling City to evacuate as soon as possible. The manuscript undoubtedly slapped the authorities in the face.

The frightened editor-in-chief sent her manuscripts back one after another, and earnestly sent text messages to persuade her to just report on the war on the front line with peace of mind, and she did not need to worry about appealing to the people at the rear.

Since Tan Tai Ming Yue chose to believe in Tang Dao, how could he give up? If his own newspaper didn't dare to publish, he would publish it to other newspapers. If other newspapers didn't dare to accept it, he would ask his friends to print leaflets and distribute them to the people in the streets and alleys of Jinling.

Tan Tai Ming Yue has been like a madman for most of the past two days, occupying the radio station of the independent battalion headquarters. If the power supply here is not smooth, he will go to Jiashan Command Headquarters to borrow a higher-power radio station.

Several lieutenant generals of the army were also frightened by this somewhat crazy reporter. Lieutenant General Wu even sent a special telegram to ask Tang Dao if he wanted to play the game of abandoning after having sex with the reporter Tan Tai. Otherwise, he felt a little abnormal these two days. If Tang Dao showed this sign, then he, a friend of Tan Tai Ming Yue's father, would have to shed tears and kill Tang Shimei.

Tang Dao had only a bitter look on his face. He couldn't stop Tan Tai Ming Yue's 'madness', because if she didn't 'madness', thousands and thousands of people would die wailing in hell. Every bit of her effort might save thousands and tens of thousands of people, which would be more useful than him fighting on the battlefield.

For Tang Dao, who had already decided to leave, this money was of course useful. The mountains that spanned several provinces were rich in products, but they were so poor. The independent battalion that had just arrived in your place could use this money to exchange for food, so that they would not be forced to go up the mountain to hunt and pick wild fruits to maintain military supplies.

As for the award certificate, it is useless now, but it will be of great use in the future.

So Tang Dao notified the entire battalion and asked all company-level units to report the soldiers who performed outstandingly in this battle, and the battalion headquarters would reward them.

The three infantry companies participating in the battle were the front-line combat troops. Each company had three first-class merits, five second-class merits, and ten third-class merits. The fire support company, artillery company, baggage company, and special agent company had half of their quotas. The fourth company led by Zhao Daqiang was far away from the battlefield because they were originally planning to use surprise troops to give the Japanese a hard blow in case of pursuit by the Japanese army. Tang Dao had been patiently not sending out this surprise force because of the possible reinforcements from the Japanese army. They did not have time to participate in any battles, so they had to give up.

In this regard, Tang Dao would not do the big pot meal. Even if the military merit certificates were useless, they were issued according to the actual situation.

The first, second, and third-class merits all had corresponding certificates issued. In addition, the first-class merit was 10 yuan, the second-class merit was 8 yuan, and the third-class merit was 5 yuan. If you feel it is inconvenient to carry, you can hand it over to the baggage company of the battalion headquarters for transportation. Even if you die in the battle in the future, as long as the independent battalion is still there, it will be issued to everyone's home according to the address registered on the roster.

At least half of the people chose this way, which undoubtedly showed their trust in Tang Dao and the newly established independent battalion.

Among them was Yang Bicheng, who had just won the first-class merit. This former coward was impressive. He killed a Japanese sergeant and four Japanese infantrymen alone. The number of enemies killed alone was higher than that of most people. He was also the first to take the lead when the charge order was issued. He was very brave and not a coward. He deserved the first-class merit.

Everyone thought that this guy, whose eyes would turn red at the thought of his brothers, would cry loudly.

Tears are his label! Whether it is because of bravery or cowardice.

But this time, the "coward" who received the first-class merit certificate did not cry, but his eyes were still red.

One person knelt in a corner of the position and kowtowed six times to the north.

He kowtowed to his aunt on behalf of his five brothers who had died in the battle. He was not qualified before, but now he finally dared.

Dare to tell your aunt that your nephew can avenge you, just close your eyes!

At this moment, all the demons in my heart are gone!
