At noon on the second day, on a street in Wuhan, several cars were driving smoothly towards the headquarters of the Secret Service. Dai Li, the chief of the Secret Service, was sitting in the back seat of a car in the middle. He had just left the commander-in-chief.
Come back from the department meeting.
But at this time, Dai Li's face was full of joy and smile.
Because this time the Secret Service was once again in the limelight in the headquarters, at today's military meeting of the headquarters, Dai Li gave a detailed report on the case of the division commander of the Guangzhou local army who was instigated by the Japanese to rebel.
In Dai Li's words, during this operation, several Central Army troops quickly deployed and directly hijacked the division commander who was about to rebel, so that he did not dare to act rashly, and then he was captured obediently, thus making the operation possible.
It was a complete success and possible problems were solved.
Even the trap laid by Long Wei, deputy chief of the Intelligence Section of the Secret Service, yielded great results. Not only did he capture the nephew and nephew's wife of the rebellious division commander, he also uncovered a Japanese spy group and found a code book.
Therefore, this achievement allowed him to show his face in front of the chairman of the committee. The chairman of the committee even directly commended Dai Li in public, saying that Dai Li was a sharp sword in his hand.
To be honest, Chang Shenkai's behavior is understandable. After all, the case in Guangzhou is too big. If the Japanese succeed, then as long as the Japanese cut off the economic artery of Guangzhou,
To the Chinese military, it is nothing less than a super earthquake.
It can even be said bluntly that without the material support from Guangzhou, the upcoming Battle of Xuzhou would be a disaster for the Chinese army.
The high command will definitely not make the mistake of the Songhu Battle again and let its elite troops resist the Japanese army's aircraft and artillery with their flesh and blood. Therefore, Xuzhou will be unable to hold, and another major retreat will be impossible.
If it is avoided, Wuhan will even be in danger by then.
Therefore, Chang Shenkai's commendation also made Dai Li feel like his steps were fluttering after he came out of the headquarters, and there was a breeze when he walked.
After all, this time Dai Li was affirmed by the chairman of the committee in front of many military bosses, and also won the reputation of a sharp sword. Therefore, Dai Li was in an extremely good mood at this time, and he felt deeply towards Li Wei.
The performance is also extremely satisfactory.
Of course, while being satisfied, Dai Li also felt a little helpless. The reason was what to do with Li Wei's reward?
To be honest, if Li Wei's information had not been timely this time, if he had waited until the Secret Service had discovered the incident, then what he had been waiting for would not have been a reward, but he would have been severely punished!
As the chief military intelligence officer of the Secret Service, if something like this happened, he would inevitably be held responsible, and he would definitely be punished.
Therefore, Li Wei's intelligence collection work was very timely and excellent. In addition, during the previous victory at Taierzhuang, Li Wei also made a great contribution in intelligence.
To be honest, the Taierzhuang victory was a joyous event for the whole of China. Naturally, rewards should be given to those who made meritorious service. However, I have not yet rewarded Li Wei for his contribution.
He has now made great achievements again, so how to reward Li Wei is a big problem.
And based on Li Wei's achievements, there is absolutely no problem in being promoted to colonel.
However, Levi was promoted to lieutenant colonel just a few months ago. If he is promoted again now, it may not be a good thing for Levi personally or for other factions within the Secret Service.
After all, he is only 24 years old this year. A 24-year-old lieutenant colonel is already considered unprecedented in the Secret Service. If he is a 24-year-old colonel, not only in the Secret Service, but also in the ranks of the entire Kuomintang army.
It can be regarded as rare.
Therefore, if Li Wei is promoted, what will those old agents who have been working for so many years think? Wouldn't this just create enemies for Li Wei?
Moreover, the factional figures within the Secret Service would not agree to this matter.
Although Li Wei is his confidant, he is fully aware of the things he has done. He also knows that based on his merits, he can be promoted. Even some senior officials in the Secret Service also know the things he has done.
But since ancient times, haven't we done enough to hide our lies?
Especially the current Secret Service is a complete carrot and a pit. If Levi comes up, although it can strengthen his own power, it will not be a good thing for other factions in the Secret Service. After all, the cake is so big.
, if one more person shares it, the interests of others will definitely be reduced.
So it's one thing for everyone to know about Li Wei's contribution, but it's another thing whether he should be promoted.
To put it bluntly, after the great victory in Taierzhuang, the Secret Service itself revealed this intention when drafting meritorious personnel, but it was unanimously opposed by other factions within the Secret Service.
They actually only planned to apply for another second-class medal for Li Wei.
But now the all-out war of resistance has been launched for a year, and many heroic deeds of epic proportions have emerged on battlefields across the country. Therefore, a large number of military medals have been awarded. Although they are also worthy of merit, there are too many medals.
, medals are no longer as rare and rare as before, so the gold content has also been greatly depreciated.
Especially because Li Wei has made so many great contributions, he has been awarded many medals before this, so even one more medal now doesn't mean much.
Therefore, it would be very unfair to Li Wei if he only recorded meritorious service and awarded honors.
But if I let him go further, those people within the Secret Service would definitely cause trouble.
And I must consider the internal stability of the Secret Service, especially at this critical moment. The principal has clearly stated that the Secret Service can be reorganized and become an independent department.
And this matter is nothing less than a big event for me, and even a happy event for the Secret Service.
But it is exactly like this, so during this period of time, I must maintain the stability within the Secret Service and make certain achievements, so that the group of people within the Kuomintang who are biased against the Secret Service can find no reason to come.
Find trouble with the Secret Service so that this matter can go smoothly.
