Chapter 1031 Promotion

"Okay, sir, I'll be right over."

After drinking a lot of fish soup, Luo Yao returned to the office and was about to take a rest. Who knows, He Yaozu called.

The old man summoned.

More than half a year has passed since the last time the old man specially summoned him. Although he often went to Shangqing Temple to report on his work.

But the chance to see the old man is very rare. This "meeting" is in person, not invisible. In fact, there are many situations where he sees him from a distance.

This sudden summons, it should be that He Guoguang went back yesterday to report to the old man the relevant situation the night before.

Otherwise, why would the old man think of summoning him?

Sir He, what a good man.

Before going to see the old man, Luo Yao naturally called Dai Yunong and informed him of the situation. This was necessary.

When meeting the old man, naturally you can't dress too casually, you have to wear formal military uniform.

"Be careful when you speak, be aware of your propriety, and don't get excited when you get excited..." Gong Hui took the military uniform, helped him put it on, and warned him.

"I know, it's not the first time we meet." Luo Yao knew that Gong Hui was doing it for his own good.

"Who will drive you there?"

"Cai Xiaochun, I have already called him to come over."

"I'll call the third child to tell him to come over later. How about having dinner at home tonight?" Gong Hui suggested.

"Okay, then just let him come over for dinner in the evening."

…

Cai Xiaochun drove to the city with Luo Yao. The old man was working at Shangqing Temple today, so he summoned him at Shangqing Temple.

The old man has many things to do and it is impossible to wait for him there, so he has to arrive before three o'clock in the afternoon. As for when the old man can make time to see him.

That depends on the arrangement.

So when Luo Yao arrived at Shangqing Temple, he went directly to see He Yaozu first.

When He Yaozu's adjutant saw Luo Yao, he first greeted him and asked him to wait in the waiting room, and then went in to report to He Yaozu.

After waiting for about seven or eight minutes, the adjutant came out and asked Luo Yao to go in alone.

When He Yaozu saw Luo Yao, he stood up from his seat and walked over to greet him. When he saw Luo Yao's left arm hanging around his neck, he was not surprised at all: "You Ning, thank you for your hard work."

"Hello, my lord." Luo Yao raised his right hand and gave a military salute.

"Come, sit down quickly." He Yaozu invited Luo Yao to sit down on the sofa where the guests were waiting, and asked his secretary to make a cup of tea.

"Single-handedly, one man and one gun, he shot down a Japanese plane. Why didn't you report such a big thing to me?" He Yaozu pretended to be angry.

He was Luo Yao's direct leader. His subordinates had made meritorious deeds. He should have been the one to take the credit, but in the end, an outsider who didn't want to do it stole the limelight, which made him feel bad.

The problem is that Luo Yao didn't call him to report the situation, but he didn't mention anything about his "masturbation".

He understood that Luo Yao wanted to keep a low profile and not take the initiative to show off his achievements. Furthermore, if anyone could report his own meritorious deeds, that would not be an invitation to take credit.

"Your Majesty, I think there is nothing to report for this matter. It is just the shooting down of a Japanese plane. Our soldiers of the national army are fighting bloody battles on the front line every day. There is also our Air Force, which shot down an unknown number of Japanese planes. , I just shot down one, and it was due to good luck, so there is really no need to retaliate."

"You just shot down one, which is not a small statement. But judging from your past achievements, shooting down a Japanese plane is really not a big achievement. But the meaning of your shooting down is different, you know?" He Yaozu said.

"Your Excellency, you want to say that if my experience of shooting down a Japanese plane this time is shared with others, it might give our air defense a new strategy, right?"

"You have a flexible mind, that's what I mean?"

"Dear Sir, my shooting down of the Japanese plane this time was mostly due to luck. It would be difficult to replicate my situation." Luo Yaocheng said honestly.

"Although it may not be completely replicable, at least it has a certain effect. If it can't be done by one person, it can be done by dozens or hundreds of people. We can still afford the price." He Yaozu said.

"This tactic can only be used by Japanese aircraft when they are dive bombing and strafing. In fact, this is what our position air defense does when there are no anti-aircraft weapons. The damage effect is very good. A single person shoots down Japanese aircraft with a rifle. This The existence of this species is purely an individual case, the probability is too small, and it does not meet the conditions for replication and promotion." Luo Yao explained.

"Well, I know, but you alone shot down a Japanese plane with just one gun. This may only be amazing in the military and has no promotion, but the political significance is different. If the Japanese air raid the night before yesterday , if the Japanese plane flew away after dropping the bomb into uninhabited territory, it would have a huge impact on the morale and confidence of the soldiers and civilians in the mountain city. Now, although the Japanese army can come at night, they have not been able to retreat completely. , this shows that they cannot escape unharmed after the night bombing!" He Yaozu explained.

"This is indeed the first time they carried out a bombing mission in the middle of the night. As a result, not only were we prepared, but we also shot down a Japanese plane. This will make the Japanese army afraid to carry out night bombing missions again." Luo Yao nodded. .

"Enemies, if their three Japanese planes leave safely this time, then the night in the mountain city will become very unsafe." He Yaozu said, "This is the impact and benefit of shooting down this Japanese plane. .”

"Therefore, the fact that I shot down the Japanese plane alone must not be leaked to the outside world. It is best not to be announced to the outside world for a period of time." Luo Yao said.

He Yaozu's eyes heated up.

Before meeting the old man in Luo Yao, this was the purpose of meeting him. It had already been discussed above.

The situation of Luo Yao shooting the Sunset aircraft one by one cannot be disclosed to the outside world, and it even needs to be kept secret internally.

In terms of external publicity, it is even more important to highlight the advance discovery of the Japanese aircraft's air raid and bombing plan, which is actually a kind of tactical fraud.

Let the Japanese army not understand the situation of the mountain city authorities. If the Japanese army knows that the mountain city authorities can provide early warning and detect Japanese aircraft.

Then their night air raids and bombings have no advantage, and they will naturally choose to bomb mountain cities at night carefully.

At this stage, the mountain city's air defense force is still very weak, and there are not many early warning means. It is okay during the day, but it is difficult at night.

If the Japanese fighter planes could really operate around the clock, the threat to the mountain city would be too great.

This is also a no-brainer. If you can scare the other party and give yourself some time, maybe you can find a solution?

The higher-ups are easy to talk to. As long as they give an order, the information can be blocked. Anyone who dares to leak it will definitely be severely punished.

The military technical room is also easy to handle. It is a unit that strictly keeps secrets from the outside world. As long as a hush order is issued, the information can naturally be blocked.

But this requires Luo Yao's cooperation.

This is tantamount to saying that Luo Yao's contribution should be taken away. Of course, it is not really taken away, but the credit should be temporarily given to the mountain city air defense force.

This is obviously extremely unfair to Luo Yao.

He Yaozu was still worried about how to convince Luo Yao, but he didn't expect that he didn't take this credit too seriously, and even quickly understood what he wanted to say.

"I may have to wrong you this time. Also, after you go back, you have to explain it to the people below. This is also for the safety of the mountain city." He Yaozu said a little guiltily.

"Don't worry, sir. I know that the overall situation is the most important thing. Personal honor and disgrace are really insignificant compared to the overall situation of the war of resistance."

"Very good, I saw you right!" He Yaozu nodded happily.

"Your Excellency is so complimentary."

"Okay, I'll make a call. Please wait for me." He Yaozu walked to the desk and picked up the phone on the table. "Hello, I'm He Yaozu, I'm here to answer the committee's office."

"Okay, I understand, come right away."

"The committee members are free now, let's go over now." He Yaozu hung up the phone and walked over to greet Luo Yao.

"Yes." Luo Yao nodded, stood up and walked out with He Yaozu.

Luo Yao has been to the old man's office in Shangqing Temple before and is very familiar with it, but he doesn't have permission and can't get close to it.

He Yaozu has a different identity and can enter the old man's office directly without any notification.

Knock on the door.

"Please come in."

He Yaozu opened the door and led Luo Yao inside.

"Committee, here comes Luo Youning, deputy director of the Military Technical Office." He Yaozu said casually, but Luo Yao put his legs together, stood at attention, and saluted him with a military salute!

Nothing was said.

"Without courtesy, please sit down." The old man seemed to be in good spirits and raised his head to say hello.

"Thank you for your appointment."

"I've heard everything about what happened the night before yesterday. You did a good job, not only avoiding heavy losses, but also making great contributions. You are worthy of being the best elite of the party and state!" The old man praised Luo Yao as soon as he opened his mouth.

"The commission is over the top. This is what I should do."

"Victory without being arrogant, yes. If the party and the country had more young people like you, there would be no need to worry about our great cause failing to succeed. You Ning, I am very optimistic about you. I hope that you will continue to work hard and make new contributions to the party and the country!"

"My subordinates are willing to serve the party and the country till death."

"Well, it is indeed the most suitable for you to entrust the military technical department to you. Zong Xiang has too many part-time jobs and limited energy, so his acting director is just a false position. You will be responsible for all the power of the military technical department. Your current position His military rank is colonel, right?"

"Yes, commission."

"You can advance to another level, but only after you successfully graduate from the Party and Government Training Course of the Central Training Corps. But from now on, you can enjoy the treatment of a major general!" said the old man.

"Thank you for the appointment, I am willing to serve you to the death!" Luo Yao immediately said with great gratitude. The old man's ability to win over people's hearts is really top-notch.

Moreover, this clarified his power in the military technical room, and Mao Zongxiang was afraid that he would no longer be able to restrict himself in the future.

Mao Zongxiang really became a tool for stamping human figures.

It's almost like the two unifications. The top bureau chief is the mascot. He doesn't care about things and gets a salary, while the deputy is in charge.

The military technical room was not clear before, but now it is completely clear, and even the promotion of military ranks has a clear timetable.

Not only does it mean reward, but it also means compensation.

"In the future, if you have anything important, you can come to see me directly." The old man added, this treatment is different, it is only given to confidants.
