The commendation conference at the police station was arranged by Lu Tingyun. He set the general process, and Zhu Xin was in charge of the specific details.

The purpose here is to commend Fang Yanwei and the special police officers who participated in the exercise, so it is relatively simple. The venue for the commendation meeting is the large conference room of the Provincial Public Security Department.

The banners and the podium were also set up.

Fang Yanwei would of course go up to speak today, so he was dressed very appropriately. Before leaving, Zhao Chengzhi said, "It would be nice if family members could also attend. But I told my dad that when you go up on stage to receive the commendation speech, he will take a few more photos of you and send them to me."

"Dad is a leader, how can he take a picture of me?"

"Why not? It's just a few photos. It doesn't break the rules. Just do your best. Everyone is watching. Especially Lu Tingyun is here. He will give you an award, right? He will be so mad then."

Fang Yanwei couldn't help but laugh when he thought of this. He would be very reluctant for Lu Tingyun to present the award to him, and then he would have to force a smile. He would be really angry to death, right?

After all the leaders arrived, the commendation meeting began. The host of the meeting was Zhu Xin. At the beginning, he briefly talked about the process and results of the joint exercise. Then the leader gave a speech, and after the speech, the theme of this commendation meeting came out.

"Okay, next, please invite Comrade Fang Yanwei, who won the first-class individual merit this time, to come on stage."

After Fang Yanwei took the stage, he was particularly energetic. Other leaders also came up to Zhao Yunsheng and whispered, "Director Zhao, your son-in-law is really amazing. He won the first-class merit when he was in the army, and now he has just arrived at the provincial department and won the first-class merit again. He has a bright future."

Fang Yanwei's first-class merit this time was completely picked up. With the help of this large-scale joint exercise, he defeated the country's ace troops. The army will give Yang Xilin the first-class merit. Naturally, he is not willing to fall behind.

Zhao Yunsheng was naturally happy to hear these words. Seeing him take out his mobile phone, his subordinate immediately said, "Director Zhao, I'll take the photo. I'll send it to you when I'm done. You don't need to take it yourself."

They all took out their phones to take photos, praising him as they took photos: "He is so heroic, and the younger generation is better than the older generation."

Among those sitting in the front rows, apart from Zhao Yunsheng, Lu Tingyun was the only one who didn't move.

He looked at Fang Yanwei on the stage. If he had won by real strength, he would definitely applaud and congratulate him, but...

"Now, please invite Comrade Lu Tingyun, Deputy Director of the Provincial Public Security Department, to present the awards to the honored personnel."

This was the arrangement of the procedure. Logically, the first-class merit award should have been presented by Zhao Yunsheng, but he said he wanted to avoid suspicion, so it was him who did it.

The etiquette lady handed the medal and ribbon to Lu Tingyun. Lu Tingyun took them, walked over to Fang Yanwei, put the ribbon on him, and then gave him the medal and said, "Congratulations."

Seeing Lu Tingyun, Fang Yanwei smiled happily and said, "Thank you, Deputy Director Lu."

Lu Tingjun smiled again and stood aside. After all, Fang Yanwei was the protagonist today and he couldn't steal his limelight. Next it was time for Fang Yanwei to give his acceptance speech.

Lu Tingyun returned to his seat. As soon as he sat down, Zhao Yunsheng said to him, "Tingyun, you have worked so hard to arrange this commendation meeting so well in such a short time."

"Thank you for the compliment, Director Zhao."

Afterwards, Lu Tingyun listened to Fang Yanwei's speech with others. At the same time, a commendation meeting was also going on at the military district, which was also very grand.

"Comrade Yang Xilin, as the commander-in-chief of this joint exercise, was calm and composed, brave and resourceful... After research and decision by the military, Yang Xilin was awarded the first-class individual merit, promoted to the rank of colonel, and appointed as the instructor of the Blood Wing Special Forces Battalion."

After hearing this appointment, Gu Dongle in the audience was so happy that he kept cheering for him.

As the commander-in-chief, Yang Xilin naturally made the greatest contribution, so he received the most rewards.

After Yang Xilin finished his speech, the commendation continued.

"In this exercise, the technical soldiers and the codebreakers also played a key role in the victory. After research and decision by the military, the codebreaker Leng Qing and the technical soldier... were awarded first-class merit and a bonus of 20,000 yuan each."

Leng Qing didn't expect that she would also be awarded the first-class merit, but she would not be promoted to a higher rank like Yang Xilin, but this was really flattering for her.

"The half-month joint exercise was quite arduous. Comrade **, who persevered to the end of the exercise... was awarded the second-class individual merit and a reward of 10,000 yuan each."

"This victory is inseparable from the efforts of every soldier in the exercise. All soldiers who participated in the exercise were awarded the third-class individual merit and a reward of 5,000 yuan each."

This was the content of the commendation, so Gu Dongle, who only participated in the exercise but did not make it to the end, was only awarded a third-class merit. Neither Yang Xilin nor Leng Qing had expected this result.

The commendation meeting was over. It would be a lie for Gu Dongle to say he wasn't disappointed. But no matter how disappointed he was, he had to congratulate Yang Xilin: "Congratulations, Yang Xilin, you're amazing. From now on, I'll call you Colonel Yang. And now that you're an instructor, do you not have to participate in drills anymore? That's amazing!"

Yang Xilin couldn't be happy with Gu Dongle's behavior. Instead, he felt uncomfortable for having received so many awards.

"Dongle, I didn't expect the military to arrange this. I..."

"What? Are you so happy that you can't speak?" Gu Dongle could only pretend that he was fine. "It's okay. I said before that I wanted to be promoted and make meritorious service. That was just a joke. I know it's impossible. I have also won the third-class merit. It's a 5,000 yuan bonus, which can buy several meals."

The more Gu Dongle acted like this, the more uncomfortable Yang Xilin felt. Leng Qing felt even worse. She felt like she had stolen the credit from someone else. The last time she won the first-class merit it was well earned by herself, but she felt unworthy this time.

"Commander, my first-class merit is too much. I can't accept it. Besides, the credit should belong to Captain Gu."

After the commendation ceremony, Leng Qing hurried to find Zhan Junlin.

"I've said it before, this is a military decision. If you say that your first-class merit award is too exaggerated, or that the reward for Gu Dongle is too little, then you are questioning the leadership's decision."

"No, I don't question it, but this is really unfair. Captain Gu shouldn't just get a third-class merit no matter what. If this is the case, as long as he holds on to the end, he can make a greater contribution. Then everyone doesn't have to worry about the team's victory or defeat, and can just care about themselves, right? Wouldn't this be disheartening to those who sacrificed themselves to save others?"

As soon as Leng Qing asked this question, she saw Xue Xiao walking over. He must have heard what she said.
