Chapter 5: Taking Credit

Liu Zhengfeng paid his respects with a bow

Liu Zhengfeng's words enlightened the commander of the guard battalion, Zhou Liankai. Destroying an enemy company is a tremendous achievement. Looking across the entire division, the whole right-wing corps, no, the entire Fifth War Zone, there is no one with such a record as his. Promotion and wealth are just around the corner

The commander stated that whatever belongs to someone is indeed theirs

Yes

Just now, Master Guo Wanlin mentioned that it was fortunate that Zhou Liankai had set up a lookout here, yet Zhou Liankai surprisingly chose to remain passive. This indicates that one should not expect any credit for their contributions.

Those officials are not even worthy of having their shoes carried for them, yet they indeed possess such a super soldier

In the current historical tide of national resistance, eliminating the enemy and punishing traitors is the foremost priority. Killing can happen anywhere, thus Liu Zhengfeng is not in a hurry to leave his current environment. As long as he maintains his integrity and recognizes the prevailing situation, there will be ample opportunities in the future to embrace our party.

The facts are present; if they do not belong to you or me, then whose do they belong to

A refined young officer took out his binoculars and looked for a while, suddenly his face lit up with joy

Hahaha ... ...

The man with the big beard sat opposite Liu Zhengfeng, his face full of envy

Zhou Liankai was robbed of the fruits of victory by Guo Wanlin, feeling secretly frustrated, he said irritably: "No way"

Well

Lian Kai, fortunately you set up a lookout here and timely discovered this sneaky Japanese army; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. Well, please provide me with a report tomorrow detailing the course of the battle, especially highlighting how this Japanese army was discovered. I want to reward him handsomely.

Bao Dayou, in a daze once again, said indignantly: "Why should that be?"

You are about to become wealthy, just look at how the master is discussing rewards and merits, you will be generously rewarded, and even you, Bao Dayou, will share in the glory

Come back

He has crossed over to this world, entering a conglomerate on the brink of collapse, which is truly unfortunate. Therefore, he does not wish to seek development within this decaying conglomerate; the better he develops, the harder it will be for him to extricate himself in the future

The leader of this ragtag group, Guo Wanlin, had recently been reprimanded harshly by the commander of the right-wing corps, Li Pinxian, for his ineffective combat performance, as he repeatedly became a breakthrough point for the Japanese army's attacks. He was feeling quite frustrated, but unexpectedly, they achieved a great victory here, which can truly be described as a timely assistance in a moment of need

Bao Dayou was stunned for a moment, his face filled with confusion

Zhou Liankai paid a respectful greeting, but his eyes secretly glanced at Liu Zhengfeng.

If Liu Zhengfeng were to cause a stir, he would certainly want to reclaim his achievements; however, it is not that he is unwilling to do so.

This great victory is enough for him to hold his head high in front of his colleagues. Not to mention Commander Li Pinxian, even the little Zhuge Bai Chongxi of the Fifth War Zone would probably look at him with new eyes

Before long, the team arrived before them. Zhou Liankai sighed, suddenly forcing a smile onto his face, and walked up quickly.

At that time, the twilight was dim and vast, and the battlefield hospital not far away was tranquil and peaceful, appearing faintly.

Lian Kai, well done, I truly did not misjudge you. Hmph, let’s see if those arrogant little bastards dare to look down on us again.

At this thought, Zhou Liankai's heart blossomed with joy as he looked at Liu Zhengfeng with a kind expression, patting him on the shoulder

Bao Dayou wore a joyful expression on his face and cast a grateful glance at Liu Zhengfeng

Liu Zhengfeng patted Bao Dayou on the shoulder and let out a gentle sigh

Yes, Master.

In the recent close-quarters combat, he single-handedly killed more than ten Japanese soldiers, which is truly incredible. His tactical movements were at times fierce and aggressive, and at other times delicate and agile, yet all were equally effective in eliminating the enemy

Zhou Liankai gazed at Liu Zhengfeng, speaking with double entendre: "Apart from guns and bullets, you do not want anything else?"

He could not dare to imagine what would happen next; it can be said that this battle completely changed his fate

Zhou Liankai looked at Liu Zhengfeng as if he were a monster. He did not appear to be a timid person who feared trouble; instead, he seemed to covet Liu's achievements, while Liu was more than willing to comply, provided that he was given some weapons. It is truly incomprehensible that such a person exists in this world

Liu Zhengfeng let out a cold laugh: "Since it is like this, then I will go ask the Master for it."

At this moment, a large group of people appeared on the distant ridge, making their way towards here.

He can do without the credit, but he cannot let Zhou Liankai benefit from it for free. It is acceptable to take my credit, but it must be exchanged with a gun and bullets

Guo Wanlin stood at the top of the mountain and glanced back at the battlefield hospital not far away

His physical fitness, military quality, and ability to respond in critical situations have suddenly advanced by leaps and bounds, making him incomparable to his former self. Although I am also a veteran, I have not come close to his level.

Zhou Liankai forced a flattering smile on his face: "I owe my entire career to your guidance, and I am willing to go through fire and water for you, without hesitation even if it costs me my life."

Who would have thought that such a person is merely an ordinary soldier among the miscellaneous ranks

The big-bearded man carefully scrutinized Liu Zhengfeng; since leaving the field hospital, the performance of this rookie has been nothing short of a mystery

Liu Zhengfeng looked at the other person with a calm expression

Indeed, you are right. I almost misjudged you. Your bravery in battle is commendable, and I will report to headquarters to commend you.

The big-bearded man stared blankly at Liu Zhengfeng, but Liu Zhengfeng suddenly stood up and walked towards the camp commander of the guard unit, Zhou Liankai

The tide of history rolls forward relentlessly, and no one can change it; turning away from darkness and embracing the light is his only choice

Bao Dayou, do not be in a hurry to thank me; this credit may not necessarily belong to either of us.

Zhou Liankai's expression changed, and he said: "Deputy Officer Lu, go see who it is."

"Commander, the division commander has come in person, look."

The man with the big beard had a glint in his eyes, and suddenly understood the meaning behind Liu Zhengfeng's words, letting out a long sigh.

Liu Zhengfeng cast a meaningful glance at Zhou Liankai

Brother Liu, thank you. I inadvertently achieved merit.

At this thought, Guo Wanlin's joy was evident on his face. Normally, when visiting and comforting the injured, he would merely go through the motions. However, at this moment, he felt genuinely happy and, surprisingly, spoke to the injured with a kind demeanor, patiently offering his condolences.

He turned to leave, but unexpectedly, Zhou Liankai suddenly called out to him

Guo Wanlin suddenly shivered; the distance from here to the field hospital is approximately 2 miles. What would happen if this group of Japanese soldiers had not been discovered? Or what if they had been discovered but not stopped?

Sir, I would like a Type 38 rifle and two hundred rounds of ammunition

A middle-aged officer in his forties, with a face full of pockmarks, walked over with a hearty laugh and affectionately patted Zhou Liankai on the shoulder

Report to the Commander, I, a humble officer, have been tasked with the defense of the field hospital. I am pleased to report that I have fulfilled my duty, having eliminated a total of one hundred eighty-three enemy combatants, including three lieutenants.

If the master still leaves a bowl of soup for himself, then it can be considered that he has a conscience

Yes

Zhou Liankai took the telescope, but his expression darkened. He knew in his heart that his dreams of promotion and wealth were likely to be dashed. At this moment, the instructor had come here to seize the fruits of victory.
