After the Chairman of the Generalissimo left, he still had to go to other troops to offer condolences, and he also had to convene senior generals for a military meeting.

But when he left the headquarters of the Northern Anhui Independent Brigade, his eyebrows were furrowed and his face was solemn.

"A new world war will inevitably break out within a year and a half at the latest!"

Jiang Dong's words have been lingering in the chairman's mind. He is emotionally willing to believe it, but his reason still makes him doubt this statement.

After all, this is a world war and hundreds of countries will be affected. The Chairman thinks it is unlikely to happen.

Unlike the Chairman's gloomy look, Jiang Dong was in a very good mood after all the officers left.

One battle achievement and a regimental captain would buy him a complete German weapons brigade. This business was very profitable.

"Lao Xie, didn't the principal reward us with 100,000 yuan, and distribute it to the brothers? I once said that I would not deduct a penny of their military pay, and the same goes for military merit. As a commander, I keep my word!"

Jiang Dong said somewhat boldly that the ideological education work of the army has not yet been put on the agenda, and military pay and rewards must be paid truthfully.

After the army is completely independent, Jiangdong will not follow the path of the red army, and military pay will continue to be paid. However, he will enhance the social status and sense of honor of soldiers, change the inherent concept of serving as a soldier and eating food, and build an army that advocates honor.

, a new army that dares to devote itself to its mission.

"Okay, I will notify the people in each battalion to collect it soon."

Xie Chengrui originally wanted to leave the 100,000 yuan at the brigade headquarters, but after Jiang Dong said so, he said no more.

"By the way, tell brothers not to spend the money earned through hard work casually. Those who are willing to send the money back to their hometowns must also register."

"Well, I know!"

In the afternoon of that day, a person came to the door of the Independence Brigade with an anxious mood.

"Stop! What are you doing?" the guard at the door yelled to stop!

The visitor bowed and said, "Brothers, please tell me that I'm here to see Chen Zhengyue!"

The two guards looked at each other. They naturally knew Chen Zhengyue's name, because the two guards were among the crowd watching the ceremony earlier when the medal was awarded.

"What's your name? What do you want from Captain Chen?"

"My name is Deng Dahai. I used to be a soldier under Captain Chen. I left the army for a long time due to injury. Now I want to return!"

The two guards looked Deng Dahai up and down, and one of them ran back to the camp.

The afternoon sun was not very hot, but there were fine beads of sweat on Deng Dahai's forehead.

"Brother, come here and take a rest. Captain Chen should be out soon."

The guard kindly asked Deng Dahai to stand where the sun could not reach him.

Jiang Dong also learned the news of Deng Dahai's return to the team soon. He felt very happy at the first moment, because at that time the sniper team was performing a near-death mission, and he was lucky to come back alive.

Accompanied by Chen Zhengyue, Deng Dahai told Jiang Dong and Xie Chengrui about his experiences in the past few months.

"According to the order of the regiment leader, the three of us messed up two Japanese heavy artillery positions. When we wanted to return to Nanjing, we found that the whole city had been surrounded by the Japanese army. Therefore, we could only find a place to cross the river according to the map's instructions.

, but one brother suffered a gunshot wound in a previous mission, and he died before he could reach the river. Another brother was also washed away by the water when he was crossing the river. I waited on the north bank for a day, and

I didn't see the brother ashore, so I had to rush to Chuzhou alone. But by that time, the Japs had already occupied Jiangpu. I bumped into a group of Japs while I was on my way. Although I managed to get rid of them in the end, I still had some problems with me.

I was injured in many places. Fortunately, a fellow villager from a nearby village took me in, so I stayed at his house until the injury healed two months later. I inquired all the way to find the troops, and fortunately the regiment leader was quite famous.

I first found out that you were in Huaibei, but when I rushed to Huaibei, I heard that you were in Xuzhou again, so I found this place again after wandering around."

Deng Dahai slowly told about his arduous journey of finding the troops, which made several people in the room feel very sad!

Jiang Dong was moved when he saw that he was dressed like a refugee and that he looked sallow and thin.

"You should take a good rest for a while. After you recover, you can continue to work under Captain Chen."

Seeing Chen Zhengyue happily leaving with Deng Dahai, the word "Sichuan" gradually appeared on Jiang Dong's forehead, and he whispered a few instructions to Xiaodouzi.
Chapter completed!
