Whining!

The whistle sounded again in the train station, and the car was full of soldiers of the East China Army who had been evacuated from the front line.

This is the last batch!

After these soldiers withdrew, the East China Army left only two divisions in the northeast, and these two divisions really could not leave, and they had to maintain local law and order in the northeast.

There was almost no possibility of war in the Northeast, and at this time, it was said that Ben was responding to the war in Europe, and the mobilized troops had already been dispatched.

Russia is also dealing with war in Europe, and there is no possibility of starting a war. Now the Russians have to look at China's face, especially the face of East China's political axe.

Russia was now left with only the Far East, and their western sea route was blocked by the Ottoman Empire.

Once the East China political axe is provoked, then the fate can be imagined, and the only remaining traffic line will no longer be open to traffic.

China has become the strongest in Asia after defeating the Zoben, and the Russian Emperor Nicholas II has recently been considering whether to change the name of the Far East.

In the Far East, near Heilongjiang, the place names there are very insulting to China, because they are all named after the officers who massacred the Chinese.

Each of these names carries a sea of blood hatred!

However, Nikolai feels that the Chinese may not have reacted yet, and it is not too late to change it, but as everyone knows, these names have long been included in the historical archives of East China's political axe.

With the retreat of the front-line soldiers, many stories from the battlefield began to circulate in various provinces of China, which were propaganda materials, the most famous of which was the story of the 'Iron Warrior Company' that took place on the battlefield in Shandong.

The company fought hard all the way against the Yue army in the trench battle, and annihilated ten times the Yue army in the trench with high morale, and one of the flamethrowers named Chen Zhifei even single-handedly eliminated the 16 fortresses of the Yue army, which can be described as super shit luck.

In the same way, each group of soldiers returned to the Guannai, and along the way, the railway stations along the railway lines were filled with people from all provinces, who kept stuffing things into the hands of the soldiers who were sitting on the train.

These things could not be stuffed back, and the soldiers could only go on, as did some stations that did not listen, and the train could only move at a very slow speed when approaching the station to avoid accidents.

Since the outbreak of the war in 1914, China has seen unprecedented national unity, especially in response to the national war, and the enthusiasm of the people in the provinces is very high.

During the First Sino-Japanese War, when Japan invaded Korea and China, unprecedented national unity also emerged in Japan.

This kind of scene has reappeared in foreign aggression since the thirties of the 20 th century. After the start of the war of aggression against China, which was marked by the "18 September" incident, there were often seas of people waving small flags waving at railway stations in various parts of the country, and even at small stations in remote towns and villages.

The crowd chanted "Hurrah". On February 22, 1932, three soldiers were killed in the battle in Shanghai, and the army portrayed them as the "three bomb warriors." Three days later, four companies vied to make a movie on this theme, and a week later, it was released in theaters. When the songs of the "Three Warriors" were solicited, there were 200,000 applicants nationwide; He also erected bronze statues and monuments for the "Three Warriors", quickly compiled the deeds into textbooks, and made more than 100 films. It can be seen that the people of Ben are generally concerned about and enthusiastically support the war of aggression against China.

In the textbooks of later generations, it is said that the people did not support the war, and only a small number of right-wingers started the war.

The citizens of any country want the country to be strong. If a country wants to be strong, it must first prove itself strong by defeating other countries.

The citizens of no country want their country to lose the war, and the citizens of every country have hidden in their hearts the ** of aggression against other countries.

As for the United States, it is a multi-ethnic country with complex components, so the anti-war sentiment is very high, but they are precisely the most active countries that wage wars, not every American is anti-war, and most Americans also support the war. Don't they rejoice that they are citizens of the United States of America?

This is true in a multi-ethnic country, and even more so in a country with a dominant ethnic group, and China is no exception.

This world is so cruel, the so-called humanity and peace are just a fig leaf that Western countries have pulled out for themselves, and this belongs to their propaganda offensive.

They were good at packaging, which began in the First World War, when the Allies succeeded in portraying the Allies as 'thugs, robbers, and robbers who started wars' in order to win people's support for the Allies, and these crimes can also be found in the Allies.

This world has always been the jungle, even if it is dressed in a humanitarian coat, but this coat is really good, and it can be especially supported.

…… The rewards of the soldiers were quickly distributed, all the soldiers who participated in the battle were awarded combat medals, and the militia and logistics personnel who did not go to the battlefield were awarded commemorative medals.

Soldiers with third-class, second-class, first-class, and special merits were also awarded higher-ranking medals, as well as material rewards.

At present, the soldiers of the East China Army are divided into first-class, second-class, and third-class soldiers, and a large number of soldiers have been promoted after this war, and their salaries have also been increased.

And there are many first-class soldiers who have been promoted to non-commissioned officers and become the most junior officers.

The rank and promotion of junior officers were basically determined quickly, and the ranks of the East China Army at this time were non-commissioned officer, second lieutenant, lieutenant, captain, major, lieutenant colonel, colonel, major general, lieutenant general, and general.

The person with the highest current rank in the East China Army is also a lieutenant colonel, Chen Xuanyu and Xie Baozhang. Lin Chenggui, Zhang Jiyu, Yang Lie, Wu Feng, Liu Wenhong, Zhang Bolan, Zhou Xiulong, and other key officers of the army and navy were ranked as majors.

Of course, Xia Jun has the rank of colonel, but Xia Jun generally does not count himself into it.

Grass-roots officers who have been on the front line will all be promoted to one level, and it will not be long before the East China Army will expand again, so a large number of officers will be needed.

Those who have made meritorious contributions may be pulled up two levels, which can be described as jumping up like a rocket.

This is only for junior officers, and the promotion of high-level officers is more strict, but it is not impossible that there will be a rocket-like upward movement.

Xia Jun is discussing with Chen Xuanyu and Xie Baozhang at the military department the issue of the promotion of the military rank of high-ranking officers, and the issue of the promotion of the rank of Zheng Chengtao, deputy commander of the Air Force.

The three of them all agreed that the performance of the Air Force in this battle was the most eye-catching, and it was also a unit with great merit, and Zheng Chengtao's military rank was only the rank of captain.

Of course, after this battle, Xia Jun, as the chairman of the committee, naturally has to mention his military rank, Chen Xuanyu said: "Chairman, it is best to mention your military rank to general, so that the lower ones can be promoted." ”

"Yes! If you don't go up, we won't be able to go up! Xie Baozhang said to Xia Jun.

"Okay, the general will be the general, then you will be the lieutenant general!" Xia Jun has no opinion, it doesn't matter to him how high or low his rank is, but there is a law that his military rank must be the highest, if he doesn't go up, others won't be able to go up.

The battle of Shandong can be described as a great victory, and it will not be possible to meet a few for a period of time in the future, so it is indeed unreasonable not to mention a few general-level officers to come up.

Chen Xuanyu and Xie Baozhang were very excited, they finally reached the general level, and they were promoted three levels in a row with Xia Jun.

There is nothing undeniable about this, in terms of promotion requirements, it is normal for a major commander to be promoted to the rank of general in a big battle.

And they have been promoted to lieutenant generals, there is still one layer away from generals, Xia Jun has reached the rank of general, and others will be able to reach generals in the future, so they still have a direction to struggle.

Moreover, with the expansion of the establishment, some positions need to be linked to corresponding military ranks.

Lin Chenggui, Zhang Jiyu, Yang Lie, Wu Feng, Liu Wenhong, Zhang Bolan, and Zhou Xiulong were promoted to major generals.

"The Western Regions Military Region is doing well, and Liu Xiaoguo is also promoted to major general!" Xia Jun said, which made Chen Xuanyu and Xie Baozhang a little surprised, Xia Jun made a movement to wipe his neck, which made the two of them suddenly understand, so they didn't have any opinions.

Liu Xiaoguo did manage the Western Regions well, but in a year's time, the Western Regions were made extremely stable, which was inseparable from Liu Xiaoguo's iron-blooded means of killing in the Western Regions, at this time the exchanges between the Western Regions and the mainland were not much, and the communication was not very convenient, and people found out many years later that some ethnic minorities in the Western Regions had disappeared.

The official explanation is that they migrated abroad, and for this reason for a long time there was no suspicion, and many years later, when the territory of China expanded dramatically, the same phenomenon was discovered. So the official explanation was that it was caused by the failure of some [***] officials to thoroughly implement the resettlement policy. Rummaging through the N files, they explained that the files of that stage had been lost due to the fire, and it was not clear who the [***] officials were...... The reward of the Beiyang political axe has not yet arrived, and the East China political axe basically set aside the central political axe, Cai Ye and Tang Jiyao also began to integrate into the East China system at this time, but Cai Yi's military rank is very high, after all, he is a general who has been sealed by the central government, so in the East China system, he was also given the rank of East China Lieutenant General, and Tang Jiyao was given the rank of East China Colonel. Jiang Baili was promoted to colonel of East China.

…… The officers of the East China Army all made rockets and raised their ranks, and the Jian'an Arsenal hurriedly began to produce medals and uniforms, which must be made before the Lantern Festival, and then sent to Hangzhou by plane.

Because on the day of the Lantern Festival, there will be a medal ceremony, and a grand state banquet will be held in East China Square.

As the central political axe, the Beiyang political axe will also participate in this state banquet at that time, after all, the name of the East China political axe is not good for this state banquet.

Xia Jun insisted on making the surname of the East China political axe the local surname political axe, and the central political axe should be thrown to Beiyang! The central government is not so easy to do.

The long-overdue 'reward' of the Beiyang political axe has finally arrived, but when rewarding the officers of the East China system, only Xia Jun was awarded.

And he was awarded the two titles of King of East China and General Jianwei.

The former is illegal as a republican state, but the Beiyang political axe is only given a title. The latter is the highest general title in ancient times, but it is not a miscellaneous general in the east and west of the town.

As soon as this reward came out, it immediately caused an uproar.
