Chapter 163 I have the final say
Seeing the soldiers die like this, Su Dao had no way to stop them. Faced with the large-scale mustard poison gas, the general prevention and treatment methods had no effect at all. In the end, with the forcibly preventing several guards, Su Dao was unable to enter the death area, but Su Dao stood on the warning line outside the death area and took off his military cap and obsessed with the soldiers for dozens of minutes.
In the end, the military correspondents brought the Wuhan telegram, and Su Dao left here. Although they had already avenged these revenges, Su Dao felt that what he had done was far from enough. Originally, a war would have been damaged by about 10,000 people. No one expected that the Kwantung Army would use such despicable means.
With the exposure of the Northeast incident in Wuhan, a large number of domestic and foreign media reporters set off for Jinxi. This small city with an important geographical location but not very famous resounded throughout the country overnight. People all over the country knew that there was a place called Jinxi in the Northeast. In Jinxi, the Kwantung Army released a large number of poison gas bombs, causing heavy casualties to the 99th Army.
The meaning of the call from Wuhan is very simple. It is nothing more than the tight battlefield in the Guanguan City and the scarcity of all kinds of supplies. The only thing that can support them is really limited. The Ninety-Nine Army must first think of a way to overcome the difficulties as soon as possible. As for the loss of troops, the click on the newspaper did not mention a word at all.
The Jinxi poison gas war seems to be a battle between China and Japan, but isn’t it a battle between China and Japan and Su Dao? Through the intelligence sent back by the spies lurking in major cities of the 99th Army, Su Dao was speechless about Jiang Guangtou’s actions. The leader of a country can deliberately ignore the merits of the soldiers for a little selfish benefit, which Su Dao would never accept.
"Military, what do you think about this?" Wu Zhongguo asked Su Dao with a cigarette in his mouth and his face full of sorrow. The frontline incidents left him with a loss of good mood for several months, especially when the Air Force reported the news of the destruction of the two Kanto military divisions, he was even more unhappy.
"What else can we think? Since the central government has asked us to find some suitable places for the reporter to take photos after they come, can we still disobey?" Su Dao asked back.
This battle has become a game between him and Jiang Guangtou. Since he issued the first battle report, there seems to be nothing Japanese. Jiang Guangtou deliberately concealed the news of the destruction of the 8th Division and the 12th Division of the Kwantung Army. The reason is very simple. It is nothing more than to gain sympathy from the international community. On the one hand, it will speed up mediation of the war between China and Japan, and on the other hand, it will launch assistance to China.
Now China is lonely and lonely. The war of resistance can only be carried out by its own strength. China's weak industrial foundation is destined to be no match for the Japanese. The only way to solve it is to relieve China's industrial pressure through external assistance.
Su Dao's idea was also very simple. Jiang Guangtou wanted to get help from the outside world. Although he didn't want Jiang Guangtou to succeed, in order to consider the overall situation of the War of Resistance Against Japan, he would not stand up directly to prevent contact with Western countries. Although this was not conducive to Su Dao's future plan for Guoguang, he endured all these. Only by covering up the contributions of the soldiers of the 99th Army, Su Dao could not tolerate it. How many Kanto soldiers had been eliminated in this battle? It must be announced to the public.
Otherwise, not only will it not be able to explain to the people, nor to the soldiers of the 99th Army, but the biggest blow to the 99th Army is not these two aspects, but the difficulty of carrying out their work in the Northeast in the future will increase. If a unit that cannot even defeat the Kwantung Army, if you want the people to support you, the difficulty will increase.
The Japanese have been controlling the Northeast for quite some time. Although they are a little cruel on weekdays, the Japanese are generally not as bad as later generations imagine. Of course, it is not wrong to say that he has ulterior motives. The reason why the Kanto Army did not cause any massacres in the Northeast was simply because they used the Northeast as the lifeline of Manchuria and Mongolia in the early days, which is the Japanese's rear resource base.
If you don’t do too much damage here, you just want to rule here smoothly, reduce the resistance of the local people, so that Japan can successfully send more resources back to the country. Now the Ninety-Nine Army suddenly plunged in. Although it is impossible for the Kanto Army to move forward in a short period of time, according to Su Dao’s personality, it is a matter of time. It can even be said that Su Dao’s arrival has affected the safety of Japan’s rear resource base.
Without the support of those people, it would be difficult for Su Dao to complete his plans in a short time. The Dawn Plan is just a major plan to incorporate the entire Northeast region into one of the major plans. There will be the North Light Plan, the Zhongguang Plan and the Nanguang Plan, and the last Longteng Plan. These five small plans combined together will be a complete Guoguang Plan.
"If you let the reporters take a photo, isn't it just a photo? Where are we not suitable for taking photos? Every place on the battlefield is suitable for taking photos. If you inform them, send a few soldiers to the battlefield to take photos. When these reporters come tomorrow, they will give them all the photos." Su Dao turned around and spoke.
This war is so miserable that in the end you can't just think about taking the benefits into your own pocket. Since you are ruthless, don't blame me for being unintentional. Anyway, no matter what, as long as you don't report the results of the 99th Army's annihilation of the two complete divisions of the Kwantung Army, Su Dao just doesn't do it. If you don't say that I'm not allowed to say it myself, wouldn't it be okay?
As for taking pictures, they were arranged quickly, and the people who performed the photo task were only the few people in Group D. However, the few people obviously didn't know how to use that thing. It was only after fiddling with it that they learned how to use the camera. As for the effect, it was all up to you, and it was up to you that you could only depend on luck.
When the soldiers walked into the battlefield wearing full protective suits and carrying cameras on their backs, all the soldiers in charge of the 99th Army's guard grew up and secretly wondered in their hearts. Could it be that if they had wrapped themselves like a rice dumpling, they could be immune to the poisonous gas on the battlefield? However, while the soldiers were still worried about them, another war of curses that were striking today took place in the headquarters of the 99th Army.
"Are you crazy? No, I don't agree with this plan." Wu Zhongguo angrily slapped the table with a few thin pages of paper on it, and the content on it was not much. However, it was related to the interests of every soldier in the army.
"Why do you disagree? We have agreed before and have also notified that a new welfare plan will be announced after the battle is over. Now that the battle is over, we can't make people laugh, right?" Su Dao stared at Wu Zhongguo with a harmless expression on his face. Although Su Dao could make the decision on this matter, it would be difficult for Su Dao to carry out it without Wu Zhongguo's support.
"My military captain, please think more and think more. Do you have more money? Do you still have some money in your hands? Please calculate by your fingers. Is the money on hand enough for you to pay two months? What should I do in the future? The Northeast is sparsely populated, even if you want to fight the local tyrants, there are not so many local tyrants to let you fight." Wu Zhongguo picked up the paper in one hand, said a few words, and then he helplessly put it on the table. The people in the command center were full of curiosity, wondering what the new benefits were like? Is the money in the army not enough for two months of military salary now?
"No need to count, you don't have to worry about money, I will naturally solve this. Your task is to form a military-level financial and logistics department as soon as possible, and then the division-level finance department, brigade-level finance department, and regiment-level finance department. In the future, the welfare on this paper will be responsible for the financial and logistics department. Military pay will no longer handle the war chiefs of troops at all levels, and will be directly distributed to individual soldiers by the financial and logistics department." Su Dao continued to smile and said.
The Finance Department now has it, responsible for the statistics of the military pay report and daily expenditure of the entire army. The Logistics Department also has it, and their main responsibility is to be responsible for the various supply work of the entire army. The Finance Logistics Department that needs to be divided now is a separate department, with Su Dao himself as the section chief and Wu Zhongguo as the deputy section chief. They both take charge of the overall situation and then set up a deputy section chief in charge of military pay and a deputy section chief in charge of logistics. Everyone performs their duties, and no one delays their work, and try to simplify their work as much as possible to avoid the phenomenon of pushing balls in the future.
To put it bluntly, the Finance and Logistics Department that Su Dao Institute wants to establish is mainly responsible for the military pay expenditure statement of active-duty soldiers and the follow-up pension work for soldiers who died or were injured. Because the new order Su Dao Institute wants to issue is huge, he is worried that someone will embezzle them below. Therefore, this department is divided separately, and the original Finance Department is responsible for allocating funds to the Finance and Logistics Department, Logistics Department and other departments, and they are responsible for the overall statement of the 99th Army.
"Don't I have to worry about it? No, I have to worry about what you want me to be this deputy section chief? Look at what new benefits you have all set? Private, now our second-class private pay is fifteen yuan per month, which is higher than ordinary sergeants of the direct troops of the Central Army. Now you set the second-class private pay at thirty yuan per month, the first-class private pay at thirty yuan per month, the top-class private pay is thirty yuan, the top-class private pay is 40 yuan, the corporal 60 yuan, the sergeant 80 yuan, and the sergeant 100 yuan." Wu Zhongguo pointed at the content above panting, then looked at another place, and pointed at even more angrily:
"And this, the pension for the soldiers who fell into the army is five times the military pay of all the soldiers who served, and twice the disabled soldiers. The military headquarters is also responsible for arranging work to ensure a stable income in the future? Have you ever thought about it? For the second-class private, if you die in ten months of being a soldier, the military pay is 350 yuan, and five times is 1,750 yuan. If a soldier joins the army for ten months, we will have to pay more than 2,000 yuan. Can we pay? Have you ever thought about how long we can last according to such rules? We have more than 10,000 people killed in this battle. The pension for more than 10,000 people alone is enough to take time out all our funds. What will we pay next? Do you want the soldiers to go to the battlefield hungry?"
"Enough, I respect you because I ask for your consent. The new welfare matter is decided so. You have to agree. If you don't agree, the soldiers are willing to work hard with us. Until they die, their families can't even get some money. Do you think these soldiers have been used as free cannon fodder for us since they were born? I said, I will solve the money matter, you just need to do it, you don't have to worry about other things." Seeing Wu Zhongguo's growing angry, Su Dao was also furious and replied impatiently.
According to the current prices, you can buy a big bull and a calf with one hundred fiat currency, but Su Dao feels that the soldiers have paid their lives. Shouldn’t he get more money? Besides, he has a drug like penicillin in his hands, so it is naturally no problem to support the army. This is also why Su Dao dares to do this. (To be continued.
