Entering July, Chen Jiajun's momentum seems to have become even greater. They broke the city of Runing, and the officials and gentry with a firm attitude were all killed by the Chen army, and then the troops went all the way south, and even Gwangju was swept away by the strong wind blowing by the Chen army.

Chen Jiajun fought all the way to Pingchang Pass and Changle Pass, and directly killed the outskirts of Xinyang Prefecture, but in the face of the soldiers and horses of Hanyang Slope and Yunyang Town, who urgently went north from Hubei, Chen Hongtao and Huang An, who led Chen Jiajun south to Runing Mansion, finally chose to retreat.

Although the soldiers are fighting more and more, Chen and Huang already have 2,000 people in their hands when they kill under Xinyang City, but these 2,000 people are too much different from the real 2,000 Chen family's army.

When the news reached Chen Ming, Chen Ming couldn't say whether he was happy or unhappy. Chen Hongtao and Huang An failed to take Xinyang Prefecture in the end, Chen Ming was of course disappointed, but they won all the way, even if they retreated from the city of Xinyang Prefecture, they were not defeated and retreated, and the military prestige of the Chen family army was always a mighty and mighty style, which was also acceptable.

Just like Chen Erbao also chose to retreat under Chenzhou City, he swept Xihua after the Qing army withdrew, as well as Taikang, Fugou, Yanling and Changge, and the soldiers once entered Kaifeng Mansion and pointed directly at Wei's family, but Chen Erbao also failed to take Chenzhou Fucheng, the most reliable front-line fortress of the Qing army in the east of the Chen army, and the Chen army in the north attacked Luoyang City. This does not mean that Chen Jiajun's combat effectiveness has weakened, but that Chen Jiajun's potential has been brought into full play.

Yuncheng, Xiangcheng, and Yiyang, except for the people of Nanyang Mansion who entrenched there after defeating Nanyang Mansion City, the other Chen Jiajun, who returned from the back, east and south roads, were all enjoying the reward of wine and meat.

The war is coming, how to make this group of victorious soldiers who have fought for a long time rekindle the desire to fight, in addition to monetary rewards, that is, material and spiritual rewards.

Fat pigs, fat sheep, chickens, ducks, geese, fish, and even cattle in Nanyang, why do you keep them? Rewarding the sergeants and rallying the morale of the army is much more useful than keeping them.

Baofeng's wine jar after altar, as well as the singing and dancing girls collected by Chen Jiajun from all over the country, wine and meat, these bone scrapers seem to have nothing to do with the real iron army, but in fact, they can really restore the morale and fighting spirit of the troops. Of course, there are also medals made by Chen Mingxin here: iron, bronze, silver, gold, etc., which are temporarily listed as fourth class.

The Medal of Loyalty and Loyalty, which have the lowest threshold, correspond to the two systems of civil and military respectively, and those who have been injured in battle and those who have been wounded in war can get the iron Medal of Loyalty or Loyalty; or those who have fought continuously without missing battle, or who have been doing their logistics and dutiful duties, can also get the iron Medal of Loyalty or Loyalty. This is the lowest level of the medal, and it covers everyone in the military, including Chen Ming himself.

The bronze Medal of Loyalty and Courage and the Medal of Loyalty and Diligence depend on whether or not meritorious service is made, while the silver Medal of Loyalty and Courage and the Medal of Loyalty and Diligence depend on whether the meritorious service is significant.

The Yunlu Medal for officers above the platoon commander level and the Baoguang Medal for officials at and above the county and bureau level are also divided into four categories: iron, bronze, silver, and gold.

This medal system does not seem to have played much role in the short term, and the civil and military systems of the General's Mansion are more of a curious and playful mentality for the capital. Chen Ming didn't think that once he took out the medal system, he would immediately be able to raise the morale of the whole army and be extremely excited. He is to prepare for the future, for example, what kind of social treatment and benefits can be enjoyed by the bronze rank, that is, the third-class Medal of Loyalty and Courage and the Order of Loyalty, such as the first-class Medal of Loyalty and Courage and the Medal of Loyalty [gold] Winners can let the general salute first, obtain a social status comparable to the general, what kind of social benefits can be enjoyed, and so on.

It's just that these ideas are still in the future, and the only thing Chen Ming can do now is to add military merit fields to them, and then use a huge and grand 'award ceremony' to express himself, to show the general's mansion, and to thank and attach importance to them.

In the future, Chen Ming will set up more medals, and gradually guide the soldiers of the army, so that they know that medals are honors, and medals are the best embodiment of self-worth, and cultivate a kind of pursuit of honor in the army.

The number of the army can also make a fuss, but it's a pity, the current Chen Jiajun is too easy to fight all the way, there is no sensational and heart-shaking bloody battle, Chen Ming can't do it if he wants to give the name to the battalion head or the team-level establishment, otherwise it will be too embarrassing.

"Wei Baocheng, the first battalion [Chen Erbao] soldier, the first team of the first platoon and the second squad leader, seven times to participate in the battle, and Xuzhou siege war, led his soldiers to kill Xuzhou to defend the city of Qing soldiers, government service, militia 50 people, captured more than 30 people, his own soldiers did not die a group, showed a heroic and calm spirit and skillful weapon operation ability, as an example for the whole army, Wei Baocheng was awarded the second-class Medal of Loyalty and Bravery, all members of the second squad collective third-class Medal of Loyalty and Bravery, and awarded the title of the first battalion of the first team of the first platoon and the second squad of the sharp knife squad."

Xiangxian outside the university field. The school field was red, and after the establishment of the Fu Han General's Mansion, Chen Jiajun's military uniform was undoubtedly set as red, the color of fiery red. Who let the Manchus take water virtue?

On the high wooden platform, there was a row of soldiers wearing red military uniforms in the cuirass, Chen Cong's voice just fell, and a young man who looked less than twenty years old stepped forward and stood in front of Chen Ming with his chest held high, he was Wei Baocheng.

With his own squad, with the strength of ten soldiers, he killed fifty enemies in seven battles, which can still be assured, in fact, he must have killed more than fifty people, and captured more than thirty people. And what is even more commendable is that only one person in their squad was injured in the siege of Xuzhou, a soldier's arm was pierced by a cold arrow, and the soldier's shoulder was covered with rattan armor, and the arrow cluster did not have much strength after breaking through the rattan armor, and the soldier was only slightly injured.

Chen Xin personally hung a silver second-class medal of loyalty and courage on his chest, Wei Baocheng's chest was held high, he already had a different kind of feelings for the medal hanging on his chest, such a grand and grand ceremony, in his mind, only finally manifested into two big words: scenery.

Scenery, what a scenery this is.

Chen Ming picked up the next medal, and Chen Cong, the second uncle of the director of the Military Merit Examination Department, said loudly: "Chen Jincai, a soldier of the first battalion, the deputy squad leader of the third platoon of the first team, fought bravely in the white-knuckle battle, and went to the head of the city three times. ”

Chen Jincai is an absolute son of the Chen family, but no one will say that he won the silver medal because he went through the back door, and the sentence 'three times to the head of the city' proves everything!
