Now that the tone of pension has been set, everything is easy.
The Independent Regiment's baggage team transported six million cash from the Huashang Group. After Liu Lang and Fan Ziran signed and pledged their money, they received thirty large boxes filled with cash from the warehouse on the spot and placed them on the training ground.
Distributed on site.
Naturally, the first ones to be distributed are those with military background.
The families of the 360 dead recruits in Tongguan and the more than 700 people who joined the army and died in Sichuan each received 400 yuan plus a reward for killing the enemy by the fallen soldiers and left their fingerprints. This was used by the independent regiment to later calculate whether they received annual support funds.
Even the newly joined Qinglong Mountain bandits and civilians who died in the two ambush battles were all paid the independent regiment casualty pension.
The only difficult thing to deal with was the veterans who came from the 17th Route Army. The 500 veterans died in a small number, a total of 118 people, but most of them were in Guangdong, and their families did not come here. Fan Ziran took these officers and soldiers one by one
Make a record of your place of origin and address, and promise to deliver all the money within two months.
Except for a handful of disabled soldiers who are willing to go home, most of them choose to stay in Guangyuan. Fan Ziran has promised on behalf of the Huashang Group to provide them with jobs suitable for them.
The Independence Regiment did not worry too much about the return of the family members who were far away in Tongguan. The Gou family sent more than 200 armed guards, and they were responsible for the safety of the family members and returning soldiers.
As businessmen, the Gou family certainly did not pay in vain. When Chi Dakui arrived in Tongguan, he signed a three-year grain purchase contract with the female head of the Gou family. Seventy percent of the independent regiment's military rations for the next three years will be provided by
Provided by Goujia.
Although Sichuan, known as the Land of Abundance, is rich in rice, sweet potatoes, corn and other food crops, perhaps due to the climate, wheat is a weak link, and the independent regiment soldiers make up a lot of soldiers from the north, so Liu Lang put the task of purchasing military rations instead.
It was handed over to the Gou family in Tongguan.
The officers of the Independent Regiment, who had just become rich, now realized how wasteful money is.
More than 500,000 cash were distributed to 1,342 fallen officers and soldiers. Including the 1,100 disabled veterans of the 29th Army, the Independent Regiment received a total of 360,000 cash to nearly 1,800 disabled officers and soldiers.
, this time it went to 900,000.
Liang Wenzhong had to take out 10,000 taels of gold from the batch of supplies that had just been taken into the treasury and seized it from the Japanese army. He asked Manager Fan Ziran to exchange it for cash on the spot. Now it was business. Fan Ziran sent a telegram to Peking until he confirmed this.
The exchange ratio between the gold of time and the gold of cash is now ready to be exchanged.
Goatee Hu, who has already gloriously become the treasurer of the Logistics Department of the Independent Regiment, is indeed worthy of being reckoned with. He plucks the abacus beads and argues with the business-minded Manager Fan. He even includes the freight from Peking to Xianyang, Sichuan. Fan is a good figure.
The manager rolled his eyes. Why don't I just go to the bank if I am unlucky?
Of course, this is just saying that if you want to do business in Sichuan now, you really have to bring a large amount of cash with you. As a local warlord, Sichuan has not yet established a national bank. If you want to use money, you can go to a pawn shop.
That is currently the most mainstream financial industry in Sichuan.
People's "counting half the city" is never without purpose.
In the end, with the insistence of "counting half the city", the independent group successfully exchanged 10,000 taels of gold for 370,000 silver dollars, which was 4,872 pieces of silver dollars more than the current exchange price in Peiping. That was a full salary.
One month's military pay.
Based on this, Mr. Accountant, who was forced to follow the independent group from Chengde, came into the sight of Liang Wenzhong, who was in charge of logistics.
It can be seen that capable people will not be buried wherever they are.
After the subsidies for fallen soldiers and disabled soldiers are paid in place, the next step is to distribute bonuses to the entire regiment's officers and soldiers. Who killed how many Japanese soldiers and who performed what merits are all recorded by the company and platoon-level officers, even the company commander.
Even if the platoon leader dies in battle, this record of merit will not be lost.
Whether it is bonus distribution or military rank promotion, the company-level merit book is the biggest proof. If you want to be an official in the independent regiment, you can get credit in exchange for it. This is the independent regiment military rule set by Liu Lang from the beginning.
Even Liu Lang's personal service soldier is still only a second-class soldier because he has never been on the battlefield, which is almost the lowest rank in the entire independent regiment.
If someone is found to be engaging in malpractice for personal gain, there is only one military law for him to accept. This is what Liu Lang specially explained to the company and platoon-level officers early in the morning. Who is more important, money or brains? I think everyone can still tell the difference.
After the Battle of the Great Wall, the Independent Regiment now has no new recruits. They are all veterans. Basically, they are all first-class soldiers or above. There are not a few soldiers with the rank of sergeant. If they were placed in other units, they would be squad leaders and reserve platoons.
Long choice.
The veterans who came from the 29th Army also had merit records, but they were not as detailed as those formulated by the Independent Regiment. Liu Lang simply decided to distribute them according to the average number. Each person would be counted as killing five Japanese invaders. According to the independent regiment, one Japanese invader would be ten.
The reward of the ocean is 50 oceans per person.
The soldiers in the Independent Regiment were all smiles. Some of them could get hundreds of dollars, and some of them could get fifty. Units like the baggage company, engineer platoon, and field hospital that were mainly engaged in logistics support had to go to the front line.
There are not many opportunities, so just like the 1,300 veterans, if there is no record of military exploits, then each person will be given 50 yuan. The artillery company is a relatively special unit. Originally, Liu Lang meant to give out an average number, but this time
Captain Zhao Ergou, who had been tricked into treating others several times, finally played some role. Almost all the company and platoon-level units requested orders for the artillery company, believing that they played a huge role in the battle and killed countless enemies.
Therefore, although there was no record of any military exploits, Liu Lang finally decided that each person in the artillery company, from Zhao Ergou to ordinary big-headed soldiers, would be given one hundred yuan. Zhao Ergou smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed to a slit, and he took out 2 yuan on the spot.
I want to treat everyone to mutton hot pot.
Peat, including Liu Lang, everyone gave this guy a slap in the face.
What moved the soldiers even more was that Liu Lang stipulated that except for company and platoon-level officers who have been fighting on the front line, each of whom can receive more rewards according to the military merits of his unit, other officers at the battalion level and above are not allowed to receive more rewards.
You get rewards based on how many enemies you kill with your own hands, including Liu Lang himself.
According to Liu Lang, being an official in the Independent Regiment is not to make a fortune, but to shoulder greater responsibilities. The military salary is already higher than others, and if you continue to compete with the soldiers for credit, then you are not worthy of being an official of the Independent Regiment.
But that's not what makes people admire Liu Lang the most. When the record list of military merit awards came out, Lang Tuanzuo was ranked first, and the number of enemies killed up to fifty people was simply unmatched.
Moreover, each of Liu Lang's records of the number of enemies he killed recorded in detail where and when Liu Lang killed the enemies. Among these fifty people, Liu Lang rarely used firearms and most of them relied on cold weapons to kill.
During Luo Wenyu's offensive and defensive battle, the main position faced the Japanese invaders in a hand-to-hand battle. Liu Tuanzuo personally led the guard platoon to participate in the battle and killed seven enemies;
Mi Jiayu led Chen Dafa and Mo Xiaomao to avenge a Japanese squad. The three of them wiped out fifty-three people in the squad. Liu Tuanzuo personally killed twenty-three enemies; Xifengkou lured and wiped out a pursuing squadron of the Sixth Division.
In the first battle, the squadron was defeated and all 20 enemies were killed in the ravine. The rest of the enemies who died under his gun were not counted because there was no specific statistics.
In fact, these were just a few of the times Liu Tuanzuo went to the front line in person. The officers and soldiers all knew that Liu Tuanzuo participated in almost all the battles of the Independent Regiment, large and small, and even went to Rehe to ambush the Eighth Army Corps without participating in the Independent Regiment.
Liu Tuanzuo also personally participated in the battle of divisions, but due to some special reasons there are no official records, so they are not counted.
But even so, Liu Tuanzuo still has the highest number of enemies killed in the entire group, which is hard not to admire.
When they saw Lang Tuanzu happily receiving 500 yuan, and the next moment bitterly handing the bag full of yuan to the smiling Lieutenant Colonel Ji, all the officers and soldiers in the regiment felt a chill. These two people were
He plans to make a living by killing Japanese people!
