Although Tang Shengzhi took the initiative to express his willingness to take on the heavy responsibility of staying in Nanjing, he was still resolutely opposed by the abandonment faction represented by Bai Chongxi and Gu Zhutong!

A group of high-ranking generals quarreled for a long time, and finally broke up!

The second high-level meeting of the high command is over!

The Japanese army is approaching Nanjing day by day, but a senior general of the Nationalist Government has still not been able to reach an agreement on whether to fight or abandon the defense, which also reflects the political ecology of the Chinese and Japanese governments from another side! The Japanese government is gambling on the fortunes of the whole country, and the government and the opposition are working together, but the national government is full of all kinds of ropes and dogs, and all kinds of mutual bargains!

Chairman Jiang was also tired, and he didn't want to move as soon as he lay down on the sofa after returning to the resting house.

was closing his eyes to recuperate, and there was a knock on the door outside the study, but when he opened his eyes, it was Qian Dajun.

"It's Mu Yin." Chairman Jiang beckoned and said, "Something comes in and talks." ”

"Commission, I just received another telegram from the 367th regiment." Qian Dajun felt that he was about to become the liaison of the 367 regiment, but then again, he was still happy to be this liaison.

Why? Because the 367 regiment always gives him good news!

"Really?" Chairman Jiang perked up when he heard this, "What's the good news?" ”

"Really." Qian Dajun nodded, and said, "After the special service battalion of the Tax Police Corps was incorporated, the 367th Regiment immediately fought a beautiful ambush battle, completely annihilated a heavy team of devils, and seized a large amount of military supplies!" The telegram said that there was a surplus to arm a main regiment! It seems that this harvest is really not small! ”

"This Zhong Yi!" Chairman Jiang muttered, "This person is really incomparable!" ”

"No!" Qian Dajun said, "Some people always lose battles and complain hard, but some people have never asked the Ministry of Military Affairs for a penny, but they have won all the battles, such as this Zhong Yi!" ”

Chairman Jiang said: "Mu Yin, how many battles have you counted Zhong Yi has won?" ”

"I'll do the math." Qian Dajun wrenched his fingers and said, "The Jinshanwei Defense Battle, the Jinshan County Counterattack Battle destroyed a field heavy artillery brigade of the Japanese Army, and the Sheshan Town Raid Battle destroyed a division and regimental headquarters and killed a lieutenant general, these three times are great victories!" After that, the annihilation of the devil squad, a squad, another squadron, another squadron, and today is another baggage team, these five battles are small but they are also victories, and there are nine victories before and after! ”

"Nine times!" Chairman Jiang said, "Nine battles and nine victories!" ”

"yes!" Qian Dajun also said, "Nine battles and nine victories!" ”

"Mu Yin." Chairman Jiang suddenly said faintly, "Am I a little too harsh on Zhong Yi?" ”

After a pause, Chairman Jiang said again: "If you just talk about your combat merits, it is enough for Zhong Yi to be promoted to major general and brigade commander, but I only gave him a major staff officer!" Isn't that excessive? ”

Qian Dajun could probably guess Chairman Jiang's thoughts.

If Zhong Yi was born in the Whampoa department, even if it was the sixth or even the eighth period, he would have been promoted to colonel and regimental commander a long time ago, He Yingqin They would never be able to stop them even if they wanted to, could it be that the chairman of the dignified military committee appointed a colonel regiment commander, and you still need the approval of a minister of military affairs? Just kidding!

But the reality is that when He Yingqin and the others expressed their opposition, Chairman Jiang did not insist!

In order to protect Zhong Yi and not give him the opportunity to be proud, or something, it's just an excuse!

The only reason is because Zhong Yi graduated from West Point Military Academy, and he is also involved with the Song family, although he doesn't deal with Song Ziwen much on the surface, but after all, he is still branded by the Song family!

Of course, I am still willing to give a regiment leader, Chairman Jiang, and it will be more difficult to go any further!

In the future, Chairman Jiang may still reuse Zhong Yi, but it will take time!

It must be admitted that it is not for nothing that Qian Dajun can be the director of the chamberlain, at least he has a very good understanding of Chairman Jiang's thoughts.

For example, Sun Liren, who also graduated from the Virginia Military Academy, also failed to gain the trust of Chairman Chiang at the beginning, but after several years of precipitation, when the Indo-Burmese War broke out, it was finally reused! Of course, Sun Liren did not live up to Chairman Chiang's trust, and his performance on the battlefield in Burma was very eye-catching!

At that moment, Qian Dajun said respectfully: "The commission is all painstaking, and they are all caring for Zhong Yi, so how can you talk about being hardworking?" ”

"That's right." Chairman Jiang nodded, and said, "There is a way for trees to show in the forest, and the wind will destroy it; If the pile is higher than the shore, the current will be turbulent! Zhong Yi's performance is very good, but it is precisely because his performance is too good that it is not appropriate to be promoted suddenly, so as not to attract the jealousy of the peak and the isolation of his colleagues! ”

"Sitting on the table." Qian Dajun said respectfully.

After a pause, Qian Dajun suddenly said again: "By the way, there is another matter, Zhong Yi has gathered more than 500 defeated soldiers of the 170th Division, and wants to ask for the number of an independent 7th battalion for these Gui defeated soldiers!" ”

After speaking, Qian Dajun handed the telegram in his hand to Chairman Jiang.

"Separate 7th Battalion?!" After reading the telegram, Chairman Jiang said, "These Guangxi Yankees! ”

Chairman Jiang's political skills are absolutely mastery, and you can guess Chen Yaoting's thoughts from hundreds of miles!

Qian Dajun also said: "These Guangxi Yankees are really worthy of Li Delin and Bai Jiansheng's soldiers, all of them are stones in the pit, smelly and hard, and it is difficult to win them over!" ”

"Over the years, Gui Jun is the only one who can't be bought with money!" Chairman Jiang nodded, and then continued, "Zhong Yi wants to use the strategy of delaying the army to show that it is good to gather and absorb these more than 500 Gui troops, I'm afraid it will not be easy!" In this case, then I might as well help him again, you immediately go and make a phone call to the Ministry of Military Affairs, promote Chen Yaoting to a major in the army, and actually give him the commander of the 367th Independent Battalion of the 7th Regiment! That Yuan Qiang was also promoted to captain of the army and awarded the rank of major battalion deputy! ”

Here is a word of interest, there are two kinds of military ranks in the national army, one is the rank of the officer, and the other is the rank of Quanxu!

The rank of the post is linked to the position, and what position is what the rank, for example, the regiment commander is the colonel!

However, the Quanxu military rank refers to the registered military rank of the Ministry of Military Affairs, this kind of military rank has a fixed number, and there is no way to be promoted before there is a vacancy, such as Zhang Lingfu, the commander of the 74th Division, who was already a lieutenant general and division commander before the Liberation War, but his Quanxu military rank is always a major general of the army, because there is no vacancy of lieutenant general!

How else to say that Chairman Chiang is a master of political maneuvers?

With this hand, he is very clever, and with this promotion order, it will be difficult for Chen Yaoting, Yuan Qiang, and the more than 500 Gui troops to return to the 7th Army!

What is this called? Let the yellow mud fall into the crotch of the pants, it's not, it's!

"Be wise!" Qian Dajun is also convinced by this, and he must admit that by following Chairman Jiang, he can really learn a lot of things unconsciously.
