Chapter 299 Promotion, Honors, and Expansion (please vote for me)
Dai Chunfeng looked at everyone with satisfaction and thought.
"We have Cheng Qianfan, a captain of the national army and leader of the Secret Service's Shanghai Blue Bird lurking team, who has repeatedly made military exploits. This time, he was not afraid of sacrifice, went deep into the tiger's den, and captured the top-secret strategic intelligence of the Japanese army. He has made great contributions to the state. He will be specially promoted.
He was awarded the rank of major and awarded the third-class Medal of Baoding."
"Zhong Guohao, a member of the 'Blue Bird' covert team, has served the country sincerely and has experienced meritorious service. He was specially awarded the title of second lieutenant, awarded the eighth-class Yunhui Medal, and was awarded three hundred French coins."
"Bai Xiaoxia, a member of the 'Blue Bird' team, was awarded the ninth-level Yunhui Medal and was awarded three hundred legal coins."
"Li Hao, a member of the 'Blue Bird' team, was awarded the ninth-level Yunhui Medal and was awarded three hundred legal coins."
"Member of the 'Blue Bird' team, Second Lieutenant Zhou Ru of the National Army, was awarded the ninth-class Yunhui Medal and was awarded three hundred French coins."
"Members of the 'Blue Bird' team, Second Lieutenant Wu Shunjia, Second Lieutenant Qiao Chuntao, and Second Lieutenant Yang Changnian of the National Army, for their loyalty to the country, will be rewarded with three hundred French coins."
"The members of the 'Blue Bird' team, Jiang Dashan, Jiang Sanqun, Jiang Xiaoning, and Zhuo Yun, have dedicated themselves to serving the country and will be rewarded with two hundred French currency."
"Major Xicheng Qianfan and his team members will continue to work hard and cooperate sincerely to serve the party and the country with fearlessness, bravery and loyalty."
"This order comes from Chang Kaishen, Chairman of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government."
"Be loyal to the leader, be loyal to the party and the country, and be loyal to your office." Cheng Qianfan led the crowd in salute and said loudly.
"Very good." Dai Chunfeng nodded happily. He personally took off the captain's rank for Cheng Qianfan, wore the rank of major, the third-class Baoding Medal, and arranged the ribbons.
Afterwards, he continued to wear eighth- and ninth-class Yunhui medals and organize ribbons for Zhong Guohao, Bai Xiaoxia and Zhou Ru.
Finally, he personally sent bonuses to everyone else, and also gave a few words of encouragement.
Afterwards, everyone defended Dai Chunfeng and took photos together. (PS1)
After completing all this, Cheng Qianfan gave an order and everyone changed out of their military uniforms and back into their regular clothes.
Li Hao and Hao Zai led everyone to disperse secretly.
Cheng Qianfan was left alone to talk secretly with Dai Chunfeng.
…
"Qianfan, this time the principal has not hesitated to reward you, and he is even more favorable to you, and you have been promoted exceptionally." Dai Chunfeng said.
"Thank you very much for your kind words, principal. I love you, principal." Cheng Qianfan said with tears of gratitude.
If he strictly followed the Quanxu rank awarding plan of the Nationalist Government's Military and Political Department, Cheng Qianfan would have to wait at least two years before he would be eligible to be promoted to the Quanxu major rank.
Nowadays, at the age of twenty-two, the title of Major Quanxu is rare not only in the Secret Service, but even within the national army.
You know, even Dai Chunfeng, the chief of the Secret Service, is only a colonel now. (PS2)
Let's put it this way, at this time, the station chief and district chief of such important stations as Peking, Tianjin and Shanghai of the Secret Service only hold the rank of Lieutenant Colonel Quanxu.
"Sit, sit, sit, you don't need to be restrained in front of me." Dai Chunfeng said with a smile.
"Yes!" Cheng Qianfan obeyed, but he only sat upright on half of the chair.
"The war in North China has begun, and Pingjin has fallen." Dai Chunfeng said solemnly, "The headquarters has determined that the Japanese army is likely to open a second battlefield in Shanghai, and the second Battle of Songhu is very likely to break out."
He looked at Cheng Qianfan and said, "The troops and horses have not moved yet, but the intelligence comes first. I have ordered the Shanghai District to make every effort to detect the intelligence of the important military and economic strongholds of the Japanese army. Your lurking team also has a difficult task."
…
"Qianfan and his subordinates must not be afraid of sacrifice, be loyal to you, and serve the country with all their devotion." Cheng Qianfan immediately stood up and said loudly.
"Very good, very good." Dai Chunfeng nodded, "I have always had great trust in your abilities."
He waved his hand, motioned for Cheng Qianfan to sit down, and continued, "You have successfully infiltrated the two major Japanese intelligence agencies. I am very pleased and have higher requirements for your department."
Dai Chunfeng stood up, walked to the wall, and opened the spinning curtain.
This is a military map of Shanghai area.
Dai Chunfeng held the command pole and pointed at the map, "Here, here, here, and here."
"The Japanese bases in Shanghai include the Gongda Cotton Factory Armory, the Gongda Cotton Factory, the Shanghai Japanese Marine Corps Headquarters and Huishan Wharf. These locations, once the war breaks out in Shanghai, will be used by our army, especially our National Defense Air Force.
Focus on hitting the target.”
"The mission of your department is to find out the detailed information of these strongholds at all costs, and do everything possible to provide ground guidance for the Air Force bombing." After saying that, he paused, "I have given orders to the Shanghai District and will try our best to investigate.
Explore these places, but remember that you and them are independent, each performs his own duties, and there cannot be any horizontal contact."
"I understand." Cheng Qianfan nodded. He stared at the map and frowned.
"Subordinates should do their best to complete the mission without sacrificing their own lives." Cheng Qianfan pondered for a moment, "But..."
"But what?" Dai Chunfeng glanced at him and asked.
"The 'Blue Bird' latent team, including subordinates, only has twelve people. The subordinates are worried that time is tight, the task is huge, and there are not enough manpower." Cheng Qianfan said calmly.
"Well." Dai Chunfeng nodded, "I am aware of the issues you mentioned."
He smiled and said, "I have ordered that five people from the latest batch of students from the special training class in Hangzhou be transferred to your command."
"That's great." Cheng Qianfan was overjoyed, "Virgo is so kind to me, and I can't thank you enough."
…
Cheng Qianfan's gratitude was not fake. The students in the special training class in Hangzhou were all elites. As far as he knew, these students were all targeted by various stations of the Secret Service before they graduated, and were even 'divided up' in advance.
Dai Chunfeng waved his hand and mobilized five students. This was not easy and would even arouse the dissatisfaction of various princes. This is enough to show that Dai Chunfeng attaches great importance to the "Blue Bird" lurking team.
"I looked at the files of your team members, the three brothers Jiang Mulezi, Taoist Zhuo Yun, and your little brother Li Hao. Although these people are not formal agents, their abilities are still very good."
Dai Chunfeng put down his baton and said, "The Japanese invaders have launched a full-scale invasion of China. The future struggle situation will inevitably become more and more serious. We must attract more young people who are determined to serve the country. Regarding this, you have done a good job before. Later,
We must keep up our efforts.”
"I understand." Cheng Qianfan nodded, which meant that he was allowed to continue recruiting troops.
"Of course, with the expansion of the team members, the 'Blue Bird' latent team is too small and can no longer adapt to the new struggle situation, so -" Dai Chunfeng looked serious and said in a deep voice, "Cheng Qianfan is listening to the order -"
"My subordinate is here." Cheng Qianfan stood at attention.
"Effective immediately, the 'Blue Bird' latent team has been upgraded to the 'Blue Bird' latent section of the Secret Service. The section chief is Major Cheng Qianfan. Your department will directly take orders from me."
"Yes!" Cheng Qianfan said loudly with a serious expression, showing a hint of excitement and surprise.
"You can decide on your own regarding the specific structure of your department. You will send me a telegram for approval soon." Dai Chunfeng patted Cheng Qianfan on the shoulder and said.
"Yes!" Cheng Qianfan stood at attention and saluted, "I would like to thank you for your cultivation!"
"You are a junior from the same hometown that I am optimistic about, and you are my junior." Dai Chunfeng said with a smile, "Don't disappoint me."
"Subordinates should be loyal to you, to the leader, and to serve the party and the country!" Cheng Qianfan said loudly.
"Very good!" Dai Chunfeng said happily, "You are very energetic. This is the momentum you want!"
