Chapter 509 Lieutenant General
Chen Shi said at the moment: "Principal, I think I should be rewarded if I have made merits. Sun Liren made such great achievements in Hanyang. If he did not receive any rewards and promotion, I am afraid that it would be unreasonable and would easily lead to the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies!"
"Ci Xiu is right!" President Chang said happily, "Sun Liren must be commended and promoted."
As soon as he heard Principal Chang's words, He Yingpei and Xu Yongsheng immediately reacted. After all, they were also smart people.
Xu Yongsheng continued: "In my opinion, we will upgrade the Anti-Smuggling Corps from brigade level to division level, and Sun Liren will also be promoted from Major General Captain to Lieutenant General Captain..."
Speaking of this, Xu Yongsheng could no longer continue.
Because he saw that Principal Chang's face had turned dark.
Seeing Principal Chang's sudden change of face, Xu Yongsheng suddenly realized that the Anti-Smuggling Corps was not actually an armed force of the Military Commission. Objectively speaking, it still had a close connection with the old commander Song Ziwen, which violated the taboo of Principal Chang. Principal Chang always had to monopolize military power!
Thinking of this, Xu Yongsheng wanted to slap himself!
Seeing Xu Yongsheng being defeated, He Yingpei and Chen Shi were secretly relieved.
He Yingpei said at this moment: "Principal, I think that Sun Liren has built the Anti-Smuggling Corps into a military force that is so brave and good at fighting. Then, keeping this armed force under the Ministry of Finance is just used to detect smuggling. It is really not useless, so I think that the Anti-Smuggling Corps should be classified as the Military Commission and given a new number."
"Yes!" Principal Chang's face calmed down and he nodded happily, "Respect this is the old saying of the country!"
He Yingpei continued: "It seems that it is better to incorporate the Anti-Smuggling Corps into the 38th Division of the new Army. Sun Liren was promoted to Lieutenant General Commander of the Anti-Smuggling Corps as the commander of the new 38th Division. What do the principal think?"
"I think it's OK." Principal Chang nodded happily and said, "However, after Sun Liren was promoted to Lieutenant General, he would be a bit inappropriate to be with Chen Jing'an, Liu Futing and others. I'm afraid he would have to give him a new identity."
Chen Shi immediately understood it because what Principal Chang was talking about seniority, which was a routine operation.
For example, after the Battle of Songhu, Song Xijian, the commander of the 36th Division, Wang Jingjiu, the commander of the 87th Division, and Sun Yuanliang, the commander of the 88th Division, were all promoted from division commanders to soldiers. At this time, Luo Zhuoying, who was older than them, was still just a commander. It was a bit inappropriate to let old seniors like Luo Zhuoying be on par with several juniors.
However, when Luo Zhuoying was appointed commander-in-chief of the army, there was no extra vacancy for a while.
So Principal Chang invented the position of corps commander, who was between the commander and the commander-in-chief of the group army, which solved a problem.
Now Sun Liren is promoted from major general commander of the Anti-Smuggling Corps to Lieutenant General Commander of the New 38th Division, and then is side by side with Chen Jing'an, Liu Futing and other brigade commanders, so he has to give him a new identity.
Moreover, Chen Shi, who is known as the young chairman, knows very well about Principal Chang's thoughts, and he even understands Principal Chang's deeper intentions in this move.
Principal Chang wanted to start to separate things silently and the alliance between Sun Liren and Zhong Yi!
Chen Shi said at the moment: "The principal is right, and Sun Liren must be given a new identity."
After a moment of pause, Chen Shi continued: "It's better to do this. Three defense zones in Hankou, Hanyang and Wuchang were established under the Wuhan Garrison Command. Zhu Liangcheng was the commander-in-chief of Hankou Defense Zone, Sun Liren was the commander-in-chief of Hanyang Defense Zone, and Zhong Yi was the commander-in-chief of Wuchang Defense Zone."
"This method is good!" Principal Chang nodded happily. In this way, not only can he inject a wedge between Sun Liren and Zhong Yi, but he can even further create some conflicts between Zhu Liangcheng and Zhong Yi!
In this way, before the Luojia system can form a climate, it is very likely that it will die in the womb!
...
Meanwhile, at Guishan Fortress.
The Anti-Smuggling Corps, the 1st Guard Brigade, the 2nd Guard Brigade and the 3rd Guard Brigade have all gathered at the underground command center of the fortress, and Zhong Yi was speaking.
Zhong Yi said: "Today we gather you together, two things."
He paused and continued, "First, your four brigades in Hanyang fought very beautifully under the command of Captain Sun. I will perform my merits to the commander of the commander! Second, regarding the outstanding performance of the Tank Battalion in last night's battle, after you go back, you will immediately issue a closure order, and no one is allowed to mention it in the future!"
The dozens of troops present at the meeting were shocked when they heard this, and they replied in unison.
After saying it concisely, Zhong Yi stood up and announced the end of the meeting.
After seeing off the captain of the attendee, Sun Liren said to Zhong Yi again: "Zi Ren, I know that you issued a ban order to be sudden when using the tank battalion in the future, but this secret is probably difficult to keep!"
"I know this." Zhong Yi nodded and said, "But what if the secret is kept?"
"Okay." Sun Liren spread his hands and said, "Also, why do you say that the Battle of Hanyang was commanded by me? Is this battle obviously your command? It's true that I need military achievements, but I will never steal your military achievements!"
Zhong Yi stared at Sun Liren and said seriously: "There are two reasons why I did this. First, even if I say that the battle in Hanyang was under my command, the commander would not allow me to be promoted again! Because I am not from the Huangpu Group, and it is over to the Major General's brigade level. Principal Chang cannot let me be promoted again! So, instead of taking advantage of others, it is better to give you this military merit!"
Sun Liren shook his head and said, "Zi Ren, you are not from the Huangpu Department, are you just me? Like you, I am not on the list of President Chang's reusable ones!"
"You are different from me!" Zhong Yi said, "You still have the chance to advance!"
Sun Liren shook his head and said, "This is just one, what is the second one?"
Zhong Yi asked back without answering: "Brother Fumin, what do you think of the Luojia system?"
Sun Liren was stunned when he heard this. Although the saying of Luojia Group had already spread all over the city, Zhong Yi, as the core figure of Luojia Group, never mentioned this in front of him.
But today, Zhong Yi finally mentioned this in front of him!
However, Sun Liren had a decision in his heart and said solemnly: "Brother Zi Ren, I hope the Luojia system really exists, and I also hope to be one of them!"
"Okay!" Zhong Yi stretched out his hand to Sun Liren and said seriously, "Brother Fumin, from now on, you and I have good achievements, are the iron triangle of the Luojia system! From now on, you and I must help each other! At any time and under any circumstances, you and I cannot destroy each other and add to the point of being hurt!"
Chapter completed!
