Chapter 125: Falling into a passive position?
They also wanted to publicize it, but before they could do so, the Eighth Route Army got there first.
now,
The whole country knew about this great victory, which put the government in a passive position. It would be fine if the Eighth Route Army just did the propaganda, but why did the Second War Zone also get involved! "As the person in charge of the government, he was very angry at this time.
right now,
The Second War Zone actually stood on the same front as the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, and in this propaganda, the commendation of the Guard Regiment was also mentioned.
therefore,
This made the government even more passive. After the old leader learned the news, he started cursing in his hometown dialect.
"Sir, what should we do next?" The person in charge was worried. The current situation for the government was unfavorable, and they had to express their attitude quickly to resolve the negative impact on the government.
If you continue to hesitate like this,
Things are only going to get more and more difficult to deal with.
The old leader leaned on his cane and said with a headache: "Has the planning team discussed the commendation plan?"
Hearing this,
General Lin standing aside shook his head helplessly: "It has not been determined yet. We have only discussed two results."
The old man shook his head and drank the tea on the table: "Let me see what the specific results of the discussion are!"
General Lin nodded upon hearing this.
Following the old leader's instructions, I took out the plan from the folder next to me.
"According to the discussion group's report, the first plan is to award Qin Hai of the Eighth Route Army Guards Regiment a third-class medal of honor and the rank of major. Other regimental commanders will be awarded fifth-class medals, and each battalion-level officer will be awarded a medal of loyalty and bravery!"
At the same time, according to each person's different contributions and positions, we will award nine levels of loyalty and bravery medals, and upgrade the guard regiment to a well-equipped first-class regiment, and equip them with anti-aircraft artillery companies, 400 Type 38 rifles, 20 heavy machine guns, 50 Czech light machine guns, plus one million rounds of various ammunition!
General Lin finished explaining the plan in one breath and then heaved a sigh of relief.
There was no other way. The rewards offered by this plan were definitely much more generous than those offered by the Second War Zone. Because they had hesitated before, they had fallen behind in cooperation and contact.
In this case, we can only increase the weight of the reward, otherwise it may cause dissatisfaction among the people and make them feel that our government is putting on a show.
After listening to the first plan, the old leader frowned, tapped the ground with his cane, and then said, "Go on!"
After hearing the old leader's words, General Lin did not delay and immediately proposed a second plan.
"Award the Second Class Cloud Medal to Guard Regiment Commander Qin Hai, and grant him the rank of Senior Colonel..."
General Lin breathed a sigh of relief after finishing talking about the rewards in one breath. There were only slight differences in the discussion results of the two rewards.
That is a gap of about one-fifth in the number of equipment.
of course,
The rewards in terms of honor are almost the same as the first plan.
The old chief listened to the general's words quietly, his expression changing constantly, and he seemed to be thinking something in his mind.
Half a minute later,
The old leader seemed to have made a decision: "In this way, the Type A regiment organization in the first plan will be upgraded to Type B regiment organization, and 800 Type 38 rifles, 50 light and heavy machine guns, and 1.2 million rounds of ammunition will be awarded."
At this point, the old leader paused for a moment, gritted his teeth and said:
"Since we want rewards, we must surpass the Second War Zone and subsidize three months of military supplies according to the standards of a Type B regiment!"
At this point,
It's not just generous, it's extremely generous. For them, it's simply a big loss.
Because of my previous hesitation,
As a result, the government is now in such a situation, and has to offer more rewards to silence the people.
under these circumstances,
The old leader looked very frustrated and helpless. Originally, he only wanted to give promotions and honors to the Eighth Route Army who had won the battle. As for equipment rewards, the government itself had to tighten its belt.
But he never expected that,
As soon as the Second War Zone intervened, coupled with the fermentation of public opinion, just a moment of hesitation immediately put himself in a passive position.
If you want to silence the gossips of the people, you can't be stingy with rewards. If the government loses the support of the people, it will completely fall apart!
Therefore,
We urgently need news of a great victory from the front to boost the morale of the troops.
of course,
No matter how aggrieved he felt, the old leader had to endure it and pay the price for his previous hesitation.
"Sir S, isn't this too much..." As the person in charge of the government, he was a little confused after listening to the instructions of the old leader.
So many rewards, much more generous than the Second War Zone.
The government is not having a good time now and is tightening its belt. It may be too much for them to take out such a huge amount of resources at this time.
"Shut up, do as I say, start propaganda, and we can't let the Second War Zone and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters lead us by the nose anymore!" The old leader was leaning on a cane, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Doesn't he understand this truth?
but now,
People all over the country are watching the government's attitude. I don't know how many eyes are staring at them.
If at this time, they are stingy with these anti-Japanese heroes, the government will soon lose the support of the people. Without the support of the people, the so-called government will be nothing but a pile of loose sand.
"Yes! I'll do it right away!"
Upon hearing this, the general manager nodded helplessly, then turned around and left with his men.
in the room,
The old leader was the only one left. Seeing the empty room, he could no longer hold back the anger in his eyes and immediately started cursing in his dialect.
"Damn it, these warlords and bandits are always against the government..."
outside the door,
Hearing the roar inside, the operator's eyes flashed with helplessness. He was already accustomed to this.
……
the other side,
When the government issued the notice,
The Eighth Route Army headquarters soon received the news, and the liaison officer quickly reported the reward to the general command via telegram.
After taking a quick glance at the contents of the telegram, the deputy commander-in-chief sneered, "It seems that old Yan finally can't sit still anymore. I thought he really wouldn't say anything at all!"
Speaking of,
This matter has been reported for two days, but the government has only responded now. I'm afraid the old man is not forced to do so, but still wants to continue to turn a deaf ear and dumb.
Hearing this,
The deputy chief of general staff at the side smiled faintly and said, "This old man Yan is so generous for once. It seems that this is also a big loss for the government. He has never been so generous to our Eighth Route Army before!"
"Ha ha!"
As soon as these words came out,
The leaders present burst into laughter. After all, the Eighth Route Army had been testing the government's attitude.
But these guys clearly knew that there was a great victory at the front, but they didn't show any reaction. If the Second War Zone hadn't responded, I'm afraid this old man would still want to get away with it.
When the other leaders read the contents of the reward telegram, they couldn't help but say in surprise:
"Then again, it's not easy for the government either. It's rare for them to be so generous this time. It seems that this old leader is quite quick to react!"
no way,
If no response is taken, the government will become demoralized and without the support and backing of the people, the so-called government will be nothing but a pile of loose sand.
