Li Hong didn't have much expectation for rewarding meritorious deeds, and didn't seem to care much about what rewards he would get.

He didn't want to come to the celebration party, and there was another reason, Li Hong knew that he would not get any substantial benefits from coming to the headquarters this time.

Although Li Hong is not very familiar with Chief Yan, he has also heard of "Yan Lao Li" and Principal Jiang, and he will only issue a commendation order and verbally praise a few words.

Yan Bochuan swept the officers and generals on both sides, and said to everyone slowly: "Ladies and gentlemen, since the establishment of the 2nd Theater, although the Battle of Gucheng County was not the biggest battle, it was the most beautiful victory fought in our theater, which played the prestige of the Chinese army and smashed the strategic intention of the Japanese army to swallow Shanxi. ”

"In this battle, although tens of thousands of enemies were annihilated in our theater, our army also paid a lot of casualties, and many high-ranking officers and generals were martyred, which is really a loss for the party and the state, and a misfortune for the nation!"

Yan Bochuan's voice fell, and a secretary standing behind him took out a document and read it out.

"Zhao Hongshan, Deputy Commander of the 7th Division of the Jinsui Army, Ke Wenjie, Major General and Brigade Commander of the 11th Division of the Jinsui Army, Wang Yijin, Major General and Brigade Commander of the 53rd Brigade of the Central Army, and Wang Zhangpeng, Commander of the 83rd Brigade of the Central Army, ......"

"The above generals were unfortunately martyred in this battle, in order to commend the brave generals who sacrificed, the above generals are posthumously awarded the rank of lieutenant general!"

"All stand !!"

Li Hong and all the generals stood up solemnly, they took off the hats on their heads with brushes, lowered their heads slightly, and their expressions were serious, feeling sorry for these officers and soldiers who sacrificed their lives.

The brief silence ended, and the generals sat down.

After a while, Yan Bochuan's secretary took out a document again.

He read aloud to the list on the document: "Cheng Daya, deputy commander of the 19th Division of the Central Army, Jiang Chengwu, commander of the 47th Brigade of the Central Army, Wu Changsheng, commander of the 13th Division of the Jin Sui Army, Chen Yaowu, deputy commander of the 28th Division of the Jin Sui Army, and Wang Kun, deputy commander of the 107th Brigade of the Jin Sui Army, ......"

There were seven or eight of the generals whose names were read, and soon they all stood up one by one.

"The above generals have made meritorious contributions in commanding troops to fight bravely against the Japanese invaders in this battle, and all of them will be awarded the first-class Yunlu Medal in commendation!"

"Bang Bang !!"

There was a round of applause in the conference room.

These generals were not only awarded medals, but also received a reward of 2,000 oceans each.

Yan Bochuan Huo Ran stood up and smiled slightly at the commended generals: "I hope that the commended generals will continue to fight bravely on the battlefield in the future, expel the Japanese invaders, and make immortal contributions to the establishment of the party-state!" ”

"Yes, Chief Yan!!"

"Humble officials must fight bravely to kill the enemy, fulfill their duties, and serve the country loyally!!"

The commended generals expressed their determination in unison, and then they all sat down.

In addition to the commendations and rewards received by the above generals, many of the generals present in the conference room were also promoted and promoted to military ranks.

Li Hong glanced at the commended generals, and was a little puzzled in his heart, it stands to reason that he has the greatest credit, and he has a share of the military merit medal.

However, the commanders of the theater turned a blind eye to his merits, and Li Hong was not mentioned at all on the long list of commendations.

Although Li Hong didn't look down on these so-called rewards, he didn't even get verbal praise, which was not a taste in anyone's heart.

Of course, except for Li Hong, the other officers were also very strange in their hearts. It is really unbelievable that Li Hong's security regiment has made such great feats and destroyed the largest number of enemies, and that the war zone does not give commendations and awards.

Li Hong was entangled in his heart for a while, and seemed to have seen fame and fortune, he sat quietly in his seat, his expression was very indifferent.

Yan Bochuan said something to encourage morale, and instead, he deliberately betrayed Guan Zi and said to everyone: "Everyone, if the Battle of Gucheng County can achieve such a big victory, the war zone should also give a special reward to one person here......

Li Hong was thinking about things casually, when suddenly, he heard Wei Boru shouting his name loudly.

"Li Hong!"

Suddenly, everyone turned their eyes to Li Hong, who was a little confused.

"Yes!"

Hesitantly replied, Li Hong quickly stood up.

Wei Boru picked up a document of the Military Committee of the National Army and read it out loud: "In the Battle of Gucheng County, Li Hong, the head of the security regiment, led the soldiers of the whole regiment to fight fiercely with the enemy defending the city for several days, and cooperated with friendly troops to create fighters to destroy the enemy. ”

All the officers and generals present understood that this battle was centered on Gucheng County, and the overall situation of the battle depended on how Li Hong fought this siege and reinforcement campaign.

If it weren't for Li Hong's good fighting in this siege battle, which attracted a large number of devil troops to increase their numbers, it would be impossible for the rest of the troops to ambush the Japanese puppet troops halfway and achieve such a big result.

"Everyone, the first contribution to the battle of Gucheng County is none other than Li Hong, I don't know, do you have any other opinions?!" Wei Boru's eyes glanced around and asked everyone in the conference room.

There was silence in the conference room, and no one objected to Li Hong's words.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Wei Boru immediately withdrew his gaze.

"Good, good! Since you all have no different opinions, then Weimou will replace the principal to commend and reward the first meritorious person! ”

At this time, Wei Boru's adjutant carefully took out a box and a delicate short sword.

"By the resolution of the Supreme Military Commission, Li Hongqing was awarded a medal of the White Sun, a Zhongzheng sword, and a reward of 100,000 yuan......."

Li Hong was a little surprised when he heard Wei Boru say these rewards, the principal was generous enough this time, not just verbal praise, but actually gave 100,000 oceans.

After thinking about it carefully, he was a little flattered again, the principal actually rewarded him with a Blue Sky and White Sun Medal, as well as a Zhongzheng sword.

The Order of the Blue Sky and the White Sun is a military medal during the period of the National Government, and this medal is awarded to meritorious military personnel who defend the country and resist foreign aggression.

Such medals are very rare, and those who have been awarded medals in the country are all high-ranking generals who have distinguished themselves in war, and the number of people who have received this medal in the country does not exceed 100.

Being able to get this precious medal is not only an affirmation of Li Hong's military ability by Shangfeng, but also a supreme honor for a soldier.

Immediately, Chen Tingxiao walked over with a medal and a sword, and he personally hung the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal on Li Hong's chest.

"Li Hong, take the sword!"

"Yes!"

Li Hong responded loudly, respectfully stretched out his hands, and took a delicate-looking Zhongzheng short sword from Chen Tingxiao's hand.

Then, with a sense of ceremony, he hung the sword on his waist.
