In just ten hours from afternoon to night, they had recruited more than a battalion of qualified soldiers. Just imagine how terrifying it was.
At this time, China had a population of 400 million, which was 400 million. There were many conflicts that occurred. The common people were willing to join the army to fight the devils, but the army could not accommodate them. Especially for independent regiments, which had the ability to recruit soldiers, of course, they hoped that the strength of the regiment would be as strong as possible. Unfortunately, weapons, ammunition, and food were a problem.
Now, under Kong Jie's rule, the Independent Regiment had been active for a long time in this generation and had received a lot of support. This was why it was so popular. If it was the National Army's recruitment, it would not be so good. Now, the situation was the Eighth Route Army's recruitment. There was a fire and explosion on the spot. Unfortunately, the problem of weapons, ammunition, and food limited the ability to recruit too many troops at once. There was sufficient food, weapons, and ammunition, and the Guomindang had never taken the initiative to recruit soldiers. You could even see the Guomindang army forcefully recruiting able-bodied men in many places!!
Even so, it was still scary enough to recruit a battalion of soldiers in ten hours. Although the number of soldiers in the independent regiment was only around 300, they still needed to be selected. Not everyone could join the army.
"Picking out an elite battalion will allow the independent regiment to maintain its original number.”
The independent regiment originally had a total of 1,300 people, including some cooks. Now that they had taken over a battalion, the number of people directly increased to 2,000.
" Maybe not." Gao Fei shook his head after eating a piece of delicious meat."It might not be enough to form a battalion, but we will keep the numbers and continue to increase the number of people.”
Gao Fei couldn't guarantee that he would be able to select a battalion of people to form an elite battalion.
"It's fine, it's fine. As long as you go out more often in the future, it'll be fine.”Laughing, Li Yun Long winked at Gao Fei in a comical manner. Gao Fei almost choked on the meat in his mouth. Did he become a professional robber of Japanese weapons and ammunition?
Although he liked doing this, it would not be fun if he was crowned as a robber.
" Hahaha!"
Gao Fei's sullen expression made Li Yun Long, Zhao Gang, and Kong Jie laugh out loud. They finished the meat and the soup in a few gulps. Li Yun Long and the other two stood up and patted their bodies."Let's go. I'm also curious about how this elite battalion is selected. Perhaps we can learn from it in the future.”
"I knew that you, Kong Jie, were not a peaceful person. Fortunately, I didn't let you go out every time. Otherwise, if you split a little at a time, wouldn't you have a ready-made army?”
Li Yunlong pointed at Kong Jie and scolded him, causing Kong Jie to stutter." You're the one who's splitting it up every time. Am I splitting it?" That was a normal distribution, alright?”
"Alright, alright, let's go."
"Gao Fei, you brat, are you really raising it as your son?”
Little San 'er was participating in the selection. Gao Fei was afraid that the tiger cub would fall off the brick bed, so he stuffed the tiger cub into his clothes and brought it along. Li Yunlong grinned. He was not so enthusiastic about raising a son now.
Ignoring him, Gao Fei placed the tiger cub down and said,""Let's go."
The group left their residence and went to the encampment outside. Everyone in the regiment was gathered here, including the new recruits who had just been recruited yesterday. Yesterday, the regiment commander had said that entering the elite camp, one would have the best food and use the latest weapons. Only the elite camp had such treatment, and everyone could participate. Even the cooks from the kitchen squad had put down their kitchen knives and gathered with a glimmer of hope.
"Captain, all the soldiers of the Independent Regiment have gathered!! Wait for instructions!"
Zhang Dabiao shouted and returned to the team. Li Yunlong shouted angrily,"That Zhang Dabiao, and the commander of the 3rd Battalion, what are you doing? If all of you join the Independent Regiment, you won't want it anymore? Come out, come out! Military officers above company level were not allowed to join!!!”
Seeing that even Zhang Dabiao and the other Battalion Commanders had joined the team, Li Yun Long waved his hand in annoyance, signaling them to come out. If all the core members had joined the elite battalion, would the Independent Regiment still be needed in the future?
"Guild Leader."
The core members, including Zhang Dabiao, all had a troubled expression on their faces. They also wanted to join such a battalion. After all, the conditions were too good. Moreover, the elite battalion was the strongest battalion in the independent regiment. Who wouldn't want to join? And stay in an ordinary camp?
"Stop talking nonsense! Go play somewhere else." Li Yunlong turned his head away in displeasure.
"Political commissar! Political commissar!"
Zhang Dabiao, who used to be a good boy, started to rebel this time. He opened his mouth and shouted," It was the regiment commander who said that everyone could participate in the selection. Why can't we? What kind of gentleman was this? No, he meant what he said!!!”
"You brat, you still want to fight with me, right?”
Li Yunlong's eyes were as wide as a bull's, and he wanted to slap Zhang Biao.
Zhao Gang had no choice but to stand up and nod."That's right. Also, a man of his word can't go back on his word. However, if all of you officers participate in the selection and enter the elite battalion, won't the entire independent regiment be in chaos?”
"I don't care! It was the regiment commander who said that he wanted to participate in the selection. Even if he couldn't enter the elite battalion, he wanted to prove that he, Zhang Dabiao, could enter the elite battalion!!”
"Get lost! Do you believe that I will whip you to death?"
Zhang Dabiao's action was equivalent to slapping Li Yunlong's face, which made him furious. He was about to move his hand, but Gao Fei hurriedly went forward and advised,""Calm down, all of you. There are so many warriors watching. You two are a regiment commander and a battalion commander.”
"How about this? First Battalion Commander Zhang Dabiao and some other core members will participate in the selection, but they won't be joining the elite battalion.”
What they wanted to prove was not whether they could not join. They had the ability, but they could not join because of the team.
Don't deny the importance of a man's face. Putting aside national dignity, the most important things for a man were wealth, women, and face.
It was only a small problem whether he could join the elite division or not. For a backbone like Zhang Dabiao, the most important thing was to have the ability to enter the elite division. Otherwise, with Zhang Dabiao's character and the rest of the backbone, they would never dare to go against Li Yun Long.
