Chapter 508: Bestowal (I)
Retracting his gaze, Wang Shihe continued to read: "In this war in the north, although our country failed to fully defend the enemy from the country, the Japanese invaders also suffered heavy losses under the efforts of the monarchs and signed a peace treaty. Zhongzheng Benyu came to congratulate you in person, but the battle to suppress the bandits in front was very urgent, so I specially appointed the guard Changshi and Yu to replace me to congratulate the generals in the north, and authorized the generals in front to wear ceremonial clothesγγγγγγ β
Speaking of this, Wang Shihe paused slightly, and the audience applauded like thunder.
There should be applause here, everyone knows that.
Clearing his throat, Wang Shihe continued to say in a deep voice: "By the order of the chairmanγγγγγγ β
The audience was awe-inspiring.
Here comes the real show.
"Huang Jie, commander of the Second Division of the Central Army, was awarded the Order of Baoding of the Third Class, and the Second Division of the Central Army was awarded the γγγγγγγ"
Every time Wang Shihe recited a name, from lieutenant general to lieutenant colonel, he stood on the stage in an orderly manner, and then waited for the bigwigs led by General He to hang up the medal in person.
Except for the three divisions of the Central Army, which were based on divisions, the rest were all based on military units, except for officers large and small above the rank of lieutenant colonel who received their own medals, and the soldiers who fought bravely in this battle were also awarded meritorious medals.
As the medals continued to be awarded, everyone also saw some clues from them.
Obviously, the more troops are first to be remembered, the smaller the number of medals and medals they receive, that is, the fewer their military exploits.
During this period, the Nationalist Government had formulated the "Navy, Army and Air Force Medal Regulations", which was based on the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal regardless of rank; the second is the Baoding Medal, the Yunlu Medal, the first-class ribbon, the fourth-class and fifth-class collar ribbon, the sixth-class and seventh-class ribbon with the medal table, and the eighth-class and ninth-class ribbons; The three are the Medal of Loyalty and Courage and the Medal of Loyalty, all of which are with scarves.
The Order of the Blue Sky and the White Sun was only awarded to sixteen people before this, including Zhang Zhi, who was tied with the Japanese army in the Songhu War of Resistance a year ago, and Liu Lang, who killed a major general and a big Zuo at the headquarters of the Seventh Wing of the Japanese Army with one shot, also mixed with the highest level of the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal at that time, so he didn't care too much about this kind of medal that couldn't be exchanged for food and drink.
But Liu Lang doesn't care, it doesn't mean that others don't care.
For example, the lieutenant generals and division commanders of the three divisions of the Central Army, who were the first to be awarded, had medals on their chests, but their faces were all black.
The bald boss was obviously extremely dissatisfied with the battle of the three divisions of the Central Army in Shougubeikou, so starting from the second division, the three lieutenant general-level division commanders were only Huang Jie who won the third-class Baoding Medal, and the other two division commanders were all fourth-class, which was the lowest Baoding Medal that the general level could obtain. The leading brothers are so miserable, so naturally their subordinates are not to mention, there are very few who can win the Baoding Medal, and the vast majority of them are the Medal of Loyalty and Bravery.
Comparatively speaking, the eighth-class, ninth-class Baoding medals awarded to the soldiers were a little more valuable than the lowest-ranking medals received by their commanders.
For such a result, most of the officers in the audience who belonged to the Northeast Army did not say anything, but the expressions on their faces still betrayed their inner pleasure. In the Battle of Gubeikou, the three well-equipped three divisions of the Central Army were the first to retreat, and it was already unpleasant to not treat them.
However, the bald boss rarely did not protect his calves, and a few third- and fourth-class Baoding medals hung on a few black faces, making people feel a little angry.
Like the penultimate announcement of the 29th Army, not only did the commander Song Zheyuan win the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal, but Zhao Dengyu, the major general of the 109th Brigade of the 37th Division who still fought bravely with two gunshot wounds under his command, also won a Blue Sky and White Sun Medal by virtue of the record of annihilating 1,500 Japanese invaders in World War I.
The bald boss is really good at playing with his wrists, Liu Lang looked at the excitement on and off the stage, and not only did he have a deep understanding of the wrist of the leader of the Kuomintang again.
In fact, only in terms of actual performance on the battlefield, the three divisions of the Central Army that tried to preserve their strength were not to mention the medals, and one fearful of the enemy was enough to make the three lieutenant generals roll up and get out. But the bald boss still calmed the anger of the northern army with such a hand, and by the way, he also asked the big guy not to keep staring at the "Tanggu Agreement" signed by the Kuomintang under his leadership in an almost humiliating posture.
I've given you such an awesome medal, what should the big guy do, don't make trouble anywhere, the bald guy played a little trick on the award, Liu Lang estimated that the big guys who won the medal were embarrassed to shout back to the north of the Great Wall every day.
The chairman of the committee has no intention of fighting with the powerful Japanese now, and his two old opponents are now leading soldiers to resist him in Jiangxi! What annoys the bald guy is that his army of hundreds of thousands is still helpless.
Except for the officers of the three regiments who sat in the center of the stage, all the rest of the troops were awarded, and even several people from all walks of life in Peiping were awarded the Gancheng Medal, which is a medal that can be issued exclusively to non-military personnel.
Liu Lang's future father-in-law, Ji Lianrong, won this medal together with three other big businessmen in Beiping because of his particularly positive donations, and he was happy to be a middle-aged man standing on the rostrum, and Liu Lang could see his back molars from a distance of more than ten meters.
Liu Lang couldn't help but feel a little pain, pursed his lips and put his mouth in the ear of Ji Yanxue, who had been sitting upright, and whispered: "Look at your father excitedly, if I hang my Blue Sky and White Sun Medal on my chest, will his old man bow down?" β
Ji Yanxue, who was blushed by Liu Lang's warm breath and earlobes, was almost not thundered to death by this goods, if it weren't for the fact that there were too many people here, Major Ji would definitely go up with one move, Nine Yin White Bone Claw, and open the skull of this cargo to see what was in his head.
You hang a "broken" medal, and you want my father to come to worship? If he really worships, do you dare to stand it? Are you the old lady is air?
Looking at Ji Yanxue's beautiful eyes that were about to breathe fire, Liu Lang also quickly closed his mouth, and it was only then that he remembered that he would have to visit Boss Ji with a gift in a few days, who made the family not only rich, but also a beautiful girl!
However, this Blue Sky and White Sun Medal can't be hung on his chest and pretended, if Boss Ji is really like that, then his most likely reaction can only be to kneel, from psychology to physiology.
Dare to say that he let his future father-in-law come to worship, except for himself, the strange chief, it is estimated that there is no one, and Chi Dakui, who was sitting equally straight, held back the muscles on his face.
It wasn't until the beautiful reporter Liu Xueyuan won a Gancheng Medal and stepped down that Wang Shihe took out another piece of paper from his chest pocket and walked to the microphone.
The breathing of the officers of the three regiments, large and small, could not help but become heavier.
The audience also became much quieter, and the huge team of 470 people surrounded by envious eyes.
Needless to say, the glorious moment belonging to the three regiments of the Independent Regiment, the 288th Regiment and the 289th Regiment has come.
