Nowadays, the war has entered a stalemate stage. The enemy and we are very stalemate. It is difficult for the little devil to take a step forward, and it is equally difficult for us to take a step forward.
In such a state, many people have lost confidence, and many troops have become passive in resisting the war.
These are very normal phenomena.
However, the new regiment led by Shen Quan achieved such brilliant results, which made the people and troops throughout Daxia see hope, and also let them know that the little devil is not a myth and can be defeated.
Because of the propaganda from many newspapers in Shancheng, many people gained confidence in the war and donated countless amounts of money and materials.
At the same time, as the number of newspapers participating in reporting on the war in the Huting stronghold continued to increase, more and more people remembered Shen Quan's name and the victorious army of the New Regiment.
At the same time, what is more important is that many aspiring young people who want to join the army and fight the Japanese regard Shen Quan as their youth idol, and they run away from home to look for the new regiment, hoping to fight the Japanese with Shen Quan.
It can be said that this propaganda was undoubtedly the most effective recruitment advertisement for the New Regiment.
The first people to come to northwest Shanxi were the children from the southwest.
Of course, all this happened later.
…
A week later, the weapons and 30,000 ocean military expenses awarded to the New Regiment by the president were sent to the New Regiment.
Commander Yan from the World War II area was asked to send someone here. The person responsible for delivering the reward materials this time was also the liaison officer from last time, Huang Yiming.
People from the World War II area came, and Chu Yunfei, who was still observing and studying in the new regiment, naturally followed them out.
Chen Quan looked at Huang Yiming and said, "Brother, we meet again."
Huang Yiming smiled and said: "Yes, Commander Shen, I didn't expect that just a few days later, I came to the new regiment again."
"But this time I am not representing the World War II zone, but the president of Yamacheng!"
"Captain Shen, the battle at Huting Stronghold is now known throughout the country, and the New Regiment has become the ace unit pursued by countless people with lofty ideals.
This time I am here to transport the rewards given to the new group by President Yamashiro! "
Huang Yiming did not count the supplies in detail, but first handed a commendation order to Shen Quan.
Shen Quan took it and saw that the commendation order contained the sincere and heartfelt words from Shancheng's CEO, unlike Chief Yan's commendation order, which was all stage talk.
After reading the commendation order, Shen Quan looked at Chu Yunfei proudly and said, "Brother Chu, I don't know a few words. How about you help me find out what the president means?"
Chu Yunfei knew that Shen Quan was taking the opportunity to show off to him, so he declined politely: "Brother Shen has done a great job this time. I believe the president has nothing but praise for Brother Shen."
Although he is from an authentic Huangpu background and has proud achievements, Chu Yunfei has yet to receive a personal award from the president.
Chu Yunfei was not only jealous but also a little dissatisfied with the president's award to a friendly commander.
Chen Quan then looked at Huang Yiming: "I accept the commendation. Let's take a look at the actual material rewards!"
Huang Yiming waved his hand, and the soldiers beside him quickly opened a dozen boxes.
"The first box contains 30,000 yuan for military expenses!"
"Two hundred Zhongzheng rifles, two heavy machine guns, five light machine guns, and five mortars!"
Seeing such a generous reward, Shen Quan's eyes nearly popped out.
There have been rumors among the public that the CEO is very stingy. Why is he willing to give Xinyi Tuan so many rewards?
Not only were they given weapons, but they also had a military expenditure of thirty thousand oceans. This is a full thirty thousand oceans!
Shen Quan said excitedly: "I didn't expect our president to be so generous. It is much richer than Chief Yan's award."
Revealing Commander Yan's sore spots in front of Huang Yiming and Chu Yunfei, Shen Quan can be said to be murderous and heart-wrenching!
"Captain Shen, you can't say that!" Upon hearing what Shen Quan said, Huang Yiming immediately became unhappy, "Didn't our Commander Yan also give Commander Shen gold bars and a Browning pistol?"
"Yes, yes! Chief Yan is not bad either!" Shen Quan said perfunctorily.
Hearing what the two said, Chu Yunfei felt even more aggrieved. This time the president gave the new group a reward. As a small group leader, he was naturally not qualified to comment.
But Chief Yan is his immediate superior and the leader he admires most. At the same time, Chu Yunfei is also Chief Yan's favorite subordinate.
But now Chief Yan gave Shen Quan gold bars and Browning pistols. This was a naked insult to Chu Yunfei!
Could it be said that a friendly commander is going to take his place in Commander Yan's heart?
Thinking of this, Chu Yunfei became even more sad.
"Thank you very much, CEO, for the generous reward. I'm sorry!" Shen Quan waved his hand: "Monk, please send someone to move these things back to the regiment headquarters."
"yes!"
Monk Wei happily stepped forward and picked up the box full of oceans alone.
Huang Yiming continued: "Captain Shen, the president and Chief Yan both admire you very much. I hope you can continue your efforts and kill more Japanese!"
Chen Quan said seriously: "As a soldier of Daxia, this is what I should do."
Afterwards, Huang Yiming exchanged a few words with Shen Quan and left Qingyang Town.
After the others left, Zhao Gang on the side said: "Old Shen, the president of Shancheng is really willing to give up 30,000 yuan in military expenses at will. I heard that many Jinsui troops have not been paid for two months." ”
Chen Quan smiled and said: "Whatever, since these oceans have arrived in a new group, they belong to the new group."
Shen Quan previously robbed the Japanese transport train and intercepted several boxes of gold, including about 600 yellow croakers. During this period, more than 20 gold croakers have been used one after another.
Now with the addition of 30,000 yuan, it can be said that the new group will not be short of money in three to five years.
But Shen Quan doesn't mind having too much money.
After all, after conquering Ping'an County, all kinds of construction will cost money.
With just this little money, I probably won't be able to do much by then.
Early the next morning, Chu Yunfei, who came to the new group to learn, observe and exchange experiences, also planned to go back.
This time coming to the New Regiment for exchange and study was an eye-opener for Chu Yunfei, who truly saw the terrifying strength of the New Regiment.
At the same time, it also refreshed the understanding of Shen Quan. He was a genius-level commander, not the weak-legged person rumored in the world.
After the battle at the Huting stronghold, the Japanese were probably frightened of the New Regiment, and anyone who saw the New Regiment would have to take a detour in the future.
"Brother Chu, you have suffered a lot during this time in the New Regiment!" Shen Quan said embarrassedly: "The conditions of our New Regiment are poor and not as good as those of the Jinsui Army. You have not been able to eat well or sleep well during this time. I'm sorry for you all the time."
"Hahaha, Brother Shen is so polite!" Chu Yunfei didn't care about this at all, but said sincerely: "As soldiers, you and I have long forgotten about wealth and enjoyment.
I am very grateful to Brother Shen for letting me come to Xinyi Tuan to learn and observe. This is something Chu will never forget in his life. "
"If there is another chance in the future, Chu will definitely go into battle with Brother Shen to fight the Japanese again!"
Chen Quan smiled and said: "Okay, Brother Chu, I believe that such an opportunity will come soon."
Shen Quan knew that according to the original plot of Liangjian, Qian Bojun, the battalion commander under Chu Yunfei, would soon rebel.
At that time, Shen Quan can take the opportunity to get the equipment of the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment.
"Brother Chu, the days are long, see you soon!"
"Brother Shen, take care!"
"That's right!" Just when Chu Yunfei was about to mount his horse, Shen Quan suddenly stopped Chu Yunfei.
"Brother Shen, what else can you do?"
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Quan finally said: "As a friend, I need to remind Brother Chu that Qian Bojun, the commander of your first battalion, should pay attention to his actions during this period."
Shen Quan really regarded Chu Yunfei as his friend, so he was willing to tell him what he knew from God's perspective.
