After graduating from Huangpu, he rose to prominence as a regiment leader.

At the garrison, an officer of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was inspecting the troops with his men.

He is the cousin of the division commander Chen Changfeng, his name is Chen Changhe, and he is also the head of the logistics department of the 65th Division.

While inspecting the troops, Chen Changhe frowned: "There are only so many people left in the 357th and 359th Regiments? It seems that my cousin is right. This is just a remnant army."

In Chen Changhe's eyes, there were very few soldiers in the entire garrison, and many of them looked like bandits. They didn't even stand properly and exuded a rough air - which was not a good thing.

"Two complete regiment-level organizations have been beaten to this point, and even bandits have been recruited into the group. Their commanders cannot shirk their responsibility." Chen Changhe shook his head, obviously not optimistic about the superiors of this group of soldiers.

The accompanying officer said, "Minister Chen, you can't say that casually. I heard that the division commander commended Qin Feng by name, and it seems that the whole army will be informed next."

"Is this true?" Chen Changhe was stunned. He came here in a hurry and rushed here just after receiving the order from the division headquarters, so he didn't know much about Qin Feng's basic situation.

He regarded those few words as exaggerations and the same old false propaganda, and didn't think of them as the real thing at all.

The accompanying officer nodded: "It should be true, have you forgotten? The division headquarters also sent a staff officer to accompany us on the way here, and it is said that they are going to confer a rank on Qin Feng."

Hearing this news, Chen Changhe couldn't sit still: "No way, I've heard some rumors about Qin Feng before, did he really win this time?"

At this point, Chen Changhe happened to pass by a group of soldiers, so he simply pulled a soldier over to ask.

"Are you a soldier from the 357th Regiment? Tell me the truth, the reason why there are so few people left between your two regiments after fighting for so long is that you were badly betrayed by Qin Feng?"

The soldier who was pulled here was originally building a wall. When he heard Chen Changhe's question, he immediately stopped what he was doing and straightened his back.

As he stopped, the people around him stopped what they were doing at the same time, and the originally bustling scene suddenly became quiet.

"What are you doing?" Chen Changhe frowned. He felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

The soldier's eyes met Chen Changhe's. He looked directly at the senior officer without fear and said word for word: "It was Commander Qin who led us to fight our way out. No one can question him!"

Being contradicted in public, Chen Changhe narrowed his eyes and was about to say something.

At this moment, an officer came towards this side surrounded by several people.

Hearing the noise, Chen Changhe looked in the direction of the sound and his eyes swept over the group of people. He saw several familiar faces among them.

When Chen Changhe saw the leader, his pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.

A golden and shining star of a general.

The rank of the visitor was actually a major general!

"Minister Chen, I was delayed by something just now. I'm late. Sorry." Qin Feng spoke first and greeted Chen Changhe.

Through what he learned from Wang Ke, Qin Feng also knew that the quartermaster minister in front of him was the division commander's cousin.

He was in charge of military supplies and was also a close relative of the division commander, so Qin Feng had no intention of causing trouble with him.

Listening to Qin Feng's words, Chen Changhe's expression softened. "It's okay. You were conferring ranks just now, right? Congratulations, Brother Qin, on your promotion to Major General. I was just taking a look around. After all, I was ordered by the division commander to resupply you with supplies."

Although major generals are everywhere nowadays and it is not a very high military rank, it is at least a general.

As for now, Chen Changhe is only a colonel and has not officially taken that step yet, so he has to show enough basic attitude towards Qin Feng.

And Chen Changhe was not a fool. After seeing that Qin Feng had truly gained a new star as a general, he also understood that Qin Feng must have really made considerable military achievements.

This actually surprised him. Qin Feng used to be low-key and well-known, so how come he suddenly became so famous now?

When he thought about his cousin's attitude again, Chen Changhe immediately understood that his cousin Chen Changfeng was probably planning to make use of Qin Feng.

Just as Chen Changhe was thinking about it.

Qin Feng also spoke up: "Minister Chen, my people just contradicted you. I apologize to you on behalf of my soldiers. I hope Minister Chen will forgive me."

Chen Changhe immediately waved his hands: "No, no, I was just asking about the situation. We are all family, it's not a big deal."

The two of them exchanged pleasantries, and then Chen Changhe got down to business.

"Brother Qin, I came here to bring you a group of new soldiers. This is a supplement for you from the division headquarters. I hope the 357th and 359th Regiments can recover their combat effectiveness as soon as possible."

"In addition, this batch of new soldiers had been recruited a long time ago, so they could be delivered today, but the equipment and supplies are still being mobilized, so it might take some time." Having said that, Chen Changhe seemed to be afraid that Qin Feng would misunderstand, so he immediately added another sentence.

"Don't worry, the commander has informed me that the supplies will definitely be delivered as soon as possible, so don't worry, brother Qin."

Qin Feng nodded, he finally understood.

Fortunately, the division commander had given the order, so this batch of supplies will be delivered as soon as possible. If no one was keeping an eye on it, it would probably take ten days or half a month to deliver, and it might not even be "fully" delivered.

Now, Qin Feng has a deep understanding of the efficiency within the National Army.

"If there is nothing else, I will leave first. After all, the division headquarters is quite busy." After sending the new recruits to Qin Feng, Chen Changhe immediately prepared to say goodbye.

This place was too shabby. There was not even a place to sit. Dust and dirt were everywhere. He couldn't stay there for a moment, pinching his nose.

"Minister Chen, I'm in a state of disarray now, and I don't have anything to show off. I just have some spoils of war from the Japanese. You can take them first." Qin Feng took out half a pack of confiscated cigarettes from his pocket and handed it over.

At the same time, he waved his hand, and the soldier next to him handed him a yellow woolen coat and a fountain pen.

Qin Feng is well aware of the current trend and knows that the other party may not take the matter seriously if he doesn't give them something.

"Well...thank you very much, Brother Qin." Chen Changhe hesitated for a moment, but still took the cigarette and fountain pen. Then he ordered someone to take the yellow tweed coat and turned to leave.

Chen Changhe led his men farther and farther away, and when they were almost away from Qin Feng’s base, he took out the fountain pen.

"Sir, this person really doesn't know the rules. How can he give such a gift as a present?" The follower next to him looked disgusted.

Although fountain pens are rare, that is only for people who can barely afford food and clothing. For those who are in charge of logistics, this kind of thing is not really worth much.

Before, no matter which garrison they went to deliver supplies to, didn't the people there always give them big bucks, good knives, and gold watches? He saw that the knife on Qin Feng's waist was pretty good.

"Okay! My cousin specifically asked me to take care of him, so he must think highly of Qin Feng." Chen Changhe played with the fountain pen in his hand, hesitating whether to throw it away.

"And I saw those soldiers defending him just now, which shows that Qin Feng is good at leading troops. Maybe he was really hiding his incompetence before."

"We'll know whether it's a mule or a horse at a glance. When we come to deliver supplies, maybe we can get some more information." After thinking it over again and again, Chen Changhe decided to put the fountain pen in his pocket.

Although he could not predict Qin Feng's subsequent performance, he chose to trust his cousin's vision.

If Qin Feng is really capable, the leader of this regular army might have to be replaced in the future.
