Happy New Year and calm down, this time we must get the maximum harvest.

Wen Jitao didn't dare to say anything. He Nian had a very high prestige in the operations department. If Chu Lingyun hadn't appeared, the operations department would have been the one to speak.

This was the case when we were in the Operations Section. Deputy Section Chief Yuan Shouwang did not dare to raise any objections.

In Wuhan, Lao Chang took over the latest goods from Fang Shiyi, and this time there was a lot more than last time.

After the last exchange with Hebian Zhengsi, Chu Lingyun had a hunch that Hebian would not be at the headquarters for long. Chu Lingyun was very clear about the situation in Japan.

He often sent telegrams to Touman, at least twice a week. Even if nothing happened, he would send messages to inquire about his safety and maintain contact between the two parties.

Touman analyzed it for him and found that the radicals in the base camp had the upper hand, while Yamada was the conservative. These radicals were very dissatisfied with him.

There is a high possibility that Yamada will be replaced. Once Yamada is transferred, there is a high probability that Hebian will also be transferred, and he will not be allowed to continue to serve.

This is no longer a problem that can be solved with money.

"Sakamoto, can you do a good job as captain of the 58th Regiment of the 116th Division?"

In the office of the literary society, Chu Lingyun was meeting members. Standing in front of him was a small officer with the rank of colonel. He was a casualty before. He was the third batch of members to join the literary society, and his qualifications were not high.

"Thank you, Mr. Ishihara. Don't worry, I will definitely do a good job."

Sakamoto was overjoyed. Didn't he just want to get a better and higher position when he joined the literary club? His previous position was very average. During this time, he has been working hard to accumulate contribution points, but it is a pity that it is still less than 2,000 points.

This amount of contribution is simply not enough for his transfer.

He has been working hard, and now his hard work has finally paid off. Ishihara Hiroshi took the initiative to help him operate, transferred him to the front line, and directly appointed him as the captain of the company.

The commander of the regiment is the chief military officer, which is much stronger than his previous position.

"Very well, remember, don't cause trouble for me, but we are not people who are afraid of trouble, understand?"

Chu Lingyun said with a smile, while Sakamoto kept nodding his head. He understood what Ishihara Hiroshi meant.

When he arrived at the place, he kept a low profile. His most important task was to consolidate his power and firmly hold the alliance in his hands.

This means not causing trouble, but if anyone thinks he is easy to bully, that person will definitely be in trouble.

The power of the literary society is very huge now. Sakamoto is someone who has watched the literary society grow up and has absolute confidence in the literary society.

Especially Hiroshi Ishihara, who not only has huge connections among high-level officials, but is also a close disciple of Lord Manchu.

He has more resources. Anyone who doesn't open their eyes and goes against them will definitely die miserably in the end.

"Go out, I'll see you off in a few days."

Chu Lingyun waved his hand. From beginning to end, Sakamoto stood and talked to Chu Lingyun, indicating the subordinate relationship between them.

Chu Lingyun can lift these people up, but he can also trample them down.

"Ishihara-kun."

Cangke Shensi walked in and stood respectfully in front of Chu Lingyun.

"The position of chief of staff of the 16th Brigade has been won for you. You will take up the post in a few days and work hard. When the opportunity arises, I will help you get promoted and strengthened."

Chu Lingyun said lightly, Cangke was forty-two years old and was promoted to colonel in his early years.

Promoting him to brigade chief of staff this time gave him the possibility of impacting the major general.

"Thank you Ishihara-kun, don't worry, I will do it well."

Kurashina Shensi replied excitedly that although the chief of staff of the brigade was not a military officer, his rank was not low, and Ishihara Hiroshi had said that he would help him continue to be promoted.

Once corrected, he will definitely be promoted to major general.

After eliminating the need for low-level lieutenants in the literary society, there are now many lieutenants. These lieutenants are all waiting eagerly, hoping for better development.

Since Hebian might have to leave, Chu Lingyun couldn't waste the next time. While Hebian and Yamada were still there, he could promote more of his own people to the top.

This time he operated four positions,

Two wing captains and two brigade chiefs of staff.

They are all exported. There are two on the line from Wuhan to Changsha, and two on the line from Jiujiang to Nanchang, which better consolidate his smuggling channels.

No matter which route, there are always his people to ensure the safety of the caravan on the road.

Hebian was very cooperative, including Yamada, and with Abe's help, the transfer of the four people went smoothly, and they will take up their posts in a few days.

Abe is much more positive than Hebian. He came to Shanghai not long ago, and now he has almost made back all his previous investment, which is enough to show his madness.

In the future, the longer he stays in Shanghai, the more money he will earn. After earning back his capital, everything in the future will be pure profits.

Four people in the literary club were promoted, all of whom held important positions in the military, and they also provided great encouragement to other members.

Those who were disobedient or complained had been eliminated by Chu Lingyun, and the remaining ones were all those who were willing to obey and cooperate.

Chu Lingyun told them with facts that contribution is very important, but it is not everything. Without contribution, you can overdraw. The premise is that your attitude towards the literary society must be sincere.

These four people are all people who are working hard to earn contribution points and are dedicated to serving the literary society.

No matter how much their contribution is, if they show their attitude, Toru Ishihara can make them overdraw their contribution and gain benefits in advance.

Many members have become more active, especially those who are senior officers. Once they get more powerful and better positions, it is likely to change their life's destiny.

For example, Cangke, who only served in the staff department before, became the chief of staff of the brigade this time. If he has meritorious service, it will be much easier to be promoted to major general in the future.

"Ishihara-kun."

After Ishihara Hiroshi finished meeting the four people, Shuicheng Shun immediately walked in.

It was Shuicheng Jun who notified them to come to the literary agency, but he had already told them before that Ishihara Hiroshi was helping them run it.

Before operation, Chu Lingyun must ask for their personal opinions. If the individual does not have this desire, Chu Lingyun will not force the transfer for them.

Chu Lingyun would not do anything thankless.

"I have a lot of goods recently, so keep an eye on me and don't cause any problems."

Chu Lingyun ordered that after leaving the river, he didn't know the attitude of the new arrivals. He had entrusted Touman to help him find out who would take over the positions of Yamada and Hebian.

However, there is also intrigue in the base camp, and it is not yet certain who will win, and there are different opinions.

No matter who it is, when they first arrived, Chu Lingyun couldn't carry out goods as blatantly as now, so now they take more goods to at least ensure the normal operation of supplies in Guotong District.

This time, he has 400 trucks of goods to arrive, more than before.

"Don't worry, I specially mobilized eight patrol boats, including a gunboat, to ensure the safety of the goods of Ishihara Trading Company. No matter who dares not to open my eyes, I will greet him with cannonballs."

Shuicheng Jun immediately raised his head and replied proudly that the affairs of Ishihara Trading Company were his business, and anyone who dared to target Ishihara Trading Company would be at odds with him.

Nowadays, no one dares to do this. What he wants to prevent are those ruthless bandits.

No matter on the water or on the road, they must not be allowed to have the opportunity to take action on the goods of Ishihara Trading Company. The volume of goods of Ishihara Trading Company is so large that the bandits will definitely target them. They are not afraid of them. As long as they dare to show their faces, Shuicheng Jun will definitely make them pay a heavy price.

price.

The water patrol team has now almost become the private security of Ishihara Trading Company.

Shuicheng Jun didn't care about other things, even illegal fishing or small boats transporting goods. He spent a lot of energy and strength on protecting the goods of Ishihara Trading Company.

He deployed at least one squadron near the docks of Ishihara Trading Company and the fleet, specifically for all-round protection.

"Thank you for your hard work, I will record these contributions for you."

Chu Lingyun nodded. Among all the members, Shuicheng Jun was the most attentive and active one. From the very beginning, he focused exclusively on the literary society, even neglecting his own job.

Chu Lingyun has never been stingy with positive people, and Shuicheng Jun was rewarded.

"Thank you Ishihara-kun."

Shuicheng Jun grinned. His contribution was now negative again. This time, he was promoted to lieutenant colonel and used his overdraft in advance.

He doesn't care about the real number of contribution points. He knows very well that it is very difficult to be promoted to colonel and co-captain by accumulating contribution points. What he has to do is to let Ishihara Hiroshi see his efforts and achievements, and always focus on Ishihara-kun.

, even if his contribution is not enough, Ishihara Hiroshi will definitely give him priority if there is an opportunity for promotion in the future.

Of course, the more contribution, the better. If the contribution is reached, he can take the initiative to ask for promotion.

Three days later, Chu Lingyun booked a restaurant, and all members of the literary society in Shanghai came to attend the farewell dinner.

"Ishihara-kun, I respect you."

Sakamoto stood up first, with a smile on his face. The transfer order was already in his hand. He was now the official captain of the wing and was just waiting to take office.

When he takes office, he will bring a few of his former subordinates to help him consolidate his position in the army.

There were twelve people sitting at the main table, only Shun Mizuki and Takemoto were lieutenants, and the rest were all colonels. The four colonels who had been transferred were beaming with joy, while the rest had envious eyes.

What Chu Lingyun wants is this effect, to let them understand that they must pay to get rewards.

Those who are opportunistic or complaining will never gain anything and may even be kicked out.

"Sakamoto-kun, congratulations."

Chu Lingyun did not stand up, but picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. Sakamoto hurriedly drank the wine in his hand.

Today's literary club is no longer the original one. Everyone understands that the president is a mascot, and the dragon never sees the end. Many subsequent members of the club have never met the president even once.

The honorary president never did anything, except when the literary club was established, he never came once.

"Thank you Ishihara-kun. If you see my performance in the future, I will work harder."
