Start as a young leader, grow bigger and stronger, and create more glory

Xu Le spoke loudly, and Commander Yan, Commander Wei and General Tong who were sitting around him could hear it clearly.

Logically speaking, after making such a great contribution, it is normal for the troops to properly handle the soldiers' families, and it is also a means to win over the hearts of the people.

But Xu Le was not talking about the 176th Division, but the Xu family army that was responsible for Chen Sen’s wife and daughter.

Everyone knows that Xu's Army is the predecessor of the 176th Division. Without going into details, both names represent Xu Le's current subordinates.

But if you look deeper, you will find that the 176th Division is under the National Guard Military Commission, and all troops under the Military Commission are under the command of Commander Jiang, the Commander-in-Chief of the Tang Dynasty's Navy, Army and Air Force.

The Xu Family Army was the name of the local army, which was independent of the National Guard Military Commission and only accepted orders from Xu Le.

They did not think that Xu Le, the young marshal and lieutenant general of the National Guard Army, would make a verbal mistake in such an occasion.

Commander Yan and Commander Wei both tilted their heads slightly to look at General Tong, wanting to see the other's reaction.

Although General Tong is also a lieutenant general, at the same level as Xu Le, and even one level lower than Commander Yan and Commander Wei, who are both second-level generals.

However, General Tong came as a special envoy of Commander Jiang, representing the National Guard Military Committee and Commander Jiang himself.

However, General Tong's reaction was beyond the expectations of Commander Yan and the others. General Tong's eyes never left Chen Sen's wife and daughter. He nodded slightly, as if he didn't hear what Xu Le said!

Even Commissioner Wei and others standing next to General Tong did not show any change in expression!

"Are these people deaf?"

Commander Yan was thinking in his heart, especially Commissioner Wei, who is a member of the Military Control Commission and is very sensitive about certain things, so how could he be so calm in this situation?

Even if you don't get angry on the spot, you should at least change your expression and express your position!

They all acted as if nothing had happened!

Commander Wei was thinking the same thing. He felt more and more that General Tong’s arrival was extraordinary, and he was afraid that something big would happen today.

.....

Xu Da came back in just one minute after he left. He did not lower his voice either: "Young Marshal, the matter of Chen Sen's wife and daughter has long been investigated. There are no other relatives at home. Regarding the follow-up issues of the sacrificed soldiers, this matter will be handled by Zhu Xiaoping!"

Xu Le was slightly surprised. He had originally placed his uncle Zhu Xiaoping in the Quartermaster Department of the Logistics Department for training, which also made it convenient for him to meet his aunt Xu Wenwan.

He didn't expect that Jiang Feng would actually hand over the resettlement of the soldiers' families to Zhu Xiaoping, and he didn't expect that the once pedantic Zhu Xiaoping was so capable in handling things.

But this was exactly what he wanted. It was best to let his own people handle this kind of thing.

"Uncle Jiang is very thoughtful. With him around, I, as the shopkeeper, feel much more relaxed!"

Thinking of this, Xu Le did not continue speaking, but watched Jiang Feng on the field continue speaking.

Watching the soldiers take Chen Sen's wife and daughter away, Jiang Feng continued, "Armored Regiment, 3rd Battalion, 9th Company, 4th Platoon. Platoon leader Zhu Zhaolan, fearless of danger, went deep into the enemy's rear, destroyed the devil's secret base, and made a huge contribution to the victory of the entire Majiazhai Campaign. Zhu Zhaolan is awarded a second-class merit and his rank is promoted to lieutenant. The entire 4th Platoon is awarded a third-class merit, and all soldiers are promoted one level in rank!"

Xu Le is the division commander. According to the system of the Military Commission, he has the right to directly change the ranks and positions of officers below the colonel level without asking the Military Commission for permission.

In addition, he is a lieutenant general, so he can even appoint a colonel as the regimental commander. He only needs to report to the Military Commission for registration, and then the Military Commission will issue a formal appointment letter.

After he finished speaking, Zhu Zhaolan straightened his military uniform and walked onto the stage in unison. The 9th Company commander's eyes never left Zhu Zhaolan. This brought honor to the 9th Company, so how could he, as the company commander, not be happy?

Behind the officers' seats where Xu Le and others were sitting, two people were holding hands tightly together, with expressions of relief on their faces. They were Xu Wenwan and his wife.

Xu Wenwan is the director of the clothing factory, which is a thorough logistics support department. She does not hold any military position, so naturally she has no qualifications to take a seat.

Although Zhu Xiaoping was in charge of the Quartermaster Department of the Logistics Department, the three major departments were not yet open to the public, so he could not take a seat.

How could they not be proud when they saw their son had made such great contributions in just a short time after joining the army?

"Look, my son is so awesome!" Xu Wenwan said with a hint of pride.

Zhu Xiaoping smiled and said, "Yes, yes, you can't give birth to a son without me!"

"What did you say?"

"No, I didn't say anything!"

Xu Wenwan's expression suddenly changed, and she said with a hint of complaint: "The father is not as promising as his son!"

Zhu Xiaoping also put away his smile. He had been in the logistics department for some time, and because of his relationship with Jiang Feng and others, he knew more secrets than others. He probably knew something about Xu Le's future plans, so he had been working diligently and responsibly.

He also understood that Xu Wenwan was joking. Although she didn't know as much as he did, he still comforted her: "As long as our family can be together, Zhaolan's glory is our glory!"

After saying that, he looked up at the sky and whispered, "Brother, if I had listened to your teachings at the beginning, perhaps you would not..."

.....

The commendation meeting only awarded military ranks and other rewards. As for the changes in military positions, they are internal matters of the General Staff and will not be discussed here. Zhu Zhaolan will not be able to escape his position as company commander, but will first serve as deputy company commander. He will take over the position of company commander after the current company commander is transferred.

In fact, the officers of the 176th Division were eager for their subordinates to be promoted, and even wanted them to replace them, because this meant that they could also move up.

This is the promotion of the 176th Division. The army is developing rapidly and needs a large number of officers. Xu Le does not trust outsiders very much, so he asked Jiang Feng to try to promote from within.

Don’t worry about whether you have enough qualifications or not, as long as you have brains and can fight, you will be promoted step by step!

There is no need to worry about an oversupply of senior officers, as there are plenty of newly formed troops to lead them!

Some soldiers or officers were commended again, but only Chen Sen was posthumously awarded the first-class merit, and only Zhu Zhaolan was awarded the second-class merit, while the rest were awarded third-class merit.

The commendation meeting is over, which is what the grassroots officers and soldiers and the people care about. Next is the military parade, which is the only thing that all the troop representatives and commanders and generals care about.

As Jiang Feng announced the start of the military parade, General Tong sat up straight instantly. Commissioner Wei and several figures from the Military Control Commission also stared intently at the corner of the road in the distance.

This road was built at an accelerated pace by the Infrastructure and Barracks Department of the Logistics Department. Its main purpose is to be used for military parades and for vehicles to travel.

Xu Le noticed the changes in the expressions of General Tong and the others, and then whispered to Xu Da: "Let them start, and don't be too anxious. If these guests want to see it, then let them see it, but that's all!"

Xu Da turned around and nodded slightly to several guards hiding in the crowd, and those guards quickly dispersed in all directions.

In a hidden corner, a person saw this and left instantly.

He was Dalong, whom Xu Le secretly placed in the logistics department to perform special tasks when he led the troops out of Kang.
