25. Wu Junrui
In the morning of Clear Wind Camp, the soldiers 'training had already begun.
During this period of time, Li Fei had recruited even more soldiers. Now, Li Fei did not even need to deliberately recruit soldiers to have people come to Clear Wind Camp to sign up for the army.
They had taken down the first stronghold of the Japanese, two large battalions of the Japanese, a military police squadron, and a field army. If they still couldn't recruit soldiers with such achievements, it meant that Wolf Fang still hadn't gained the recognition of the civilians.
It had been a month since the establishment of Wolf Fang, and Li Fei now had 5,000 soldiers.
Li Fei's forces were enough to compete with the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, but Li Fei did not expand his forces and still used two regiments as the foundation.
This was because the soldiers were not well trained, and there were no better military commanders. These soldiers were hard to come by for Li Fei. He could not appoint a pig-headed commander to destroy a well-trained army.
Therefore, the most important thing for Li Fei now was to recruit a better commander.
At the very least, he had to have some good military skills.
..........
The 25th Division of the National Revolutionary Army was defeated by the Japanese army in the northeast battlefield. The entire military system was destroyed by the Japanese.
Some of the soldiers even turned into civilians to hide from the Japanese.
However, at this moment, there was a group of people at the foot of Clear Wind Camp. There were about ten of them.
Every single one of them was covered in dust. It was obvious that they had not bathed for nearly a year, and their faces were filled with traces of smoke.
"Sir, how long will it take for us to return to the army?”A soldier said weakly.
They hadn't eaten well or slept well during this period of time. He had been hiding from the Japanese all day.
Sometimes, they would even spend the night in the pond. They had never lived such a life before, but now that they were on the losing side, they had no right to say that such a life was bitter.
"From the northeast to the northwest, we passed by countless national armies, but none of them acknowledged us because we were defeated.”The man who was addressed as the commander had tears on his face.
Who said that men don't cry? It's just that they haven't reached the point of sadness.
As their commander, he couldn't bring them home. He even hid from place to place every day. They had enough of such days.
"Brothers, from today onwards, we won't be returning to the army.”
"Right, we won't be returning to the national army. We fought for the national army and suffered countless fighting spirits.”
These soldiers were all rebounding, all of them dissatisfied with the national army.
"Sir, if we don't return to the army, where will we go?”A soldier voiced out their thoughts.
If the national army did not accept them, what would they do? They were all born in the army. From the time they joined the army until now, they had lived in the army every day and experienced different battles every day.
But now that they had been defeated, none of the troops in the national army were willing to accept them. They were no longer crawling in a pit of fire.
"Let's go and join the Eighth Route. Life there is a little tough, but at least we can fight the Japanese openly.”
"Why do you want to go to the 8th route? This is the territory of our Wolf Fang?”Just as the soldiers were about to make a decision, Li Fei led his troops over.
"My name is Wu Junrui, the former commander of the 25th Division's 1st Regiment?”Wu Junrui immediately ran in front of Li Fei and gave him a military salute.
"The commander of the 25th Division?" Hearing this word, Li Fei's heart could not help but vomit.
He was just about to go to the national army to poach a general, but he didn't expect to see a regimental commander in front of him.
"The 25th Division was defeated by the Japanese in the northeast. Why did you run to the northwest?”Li Fei asked.
"Yes, why are we able to travel such a long distance? Is it because none of the troops in the national army are willing to accept us?”Wu Junrui said sadly.
For the sake of China, they did not hesitate to sacrifice their lives and shed their blood, but in the end, they became a wandering dog.
The clothes of his soldiers were all tattered, and some of them had even revealed their reddish-yellow bodies. However, they still did not give up. They were still fighting against the Japanese with their own bodies.
This was a troop worthy of respect.
On the battlefield in the northeast, the 25th Division was the only unit that fought against the Japanese. Although the 25th Division was defeated by the Japanese's planes and cannons, their battle was still exciting.
There was no one who did not applaud them on the battlefield because they had displayed the might of the people of China in this battle.
They were not the sick men of East Asia. They used simple weapons to fight against the Japanese planes and cannons. Such a force was worthy of respect.
"I am the commander of the Wolf Fang Special Combat Brigade. If you don't mind, please join us.”Li Fei directly sent out an invitation.
Regardless of whether this Wu Junrui could become the commander in his heart, he should take them in based on the reputation of the 25th Division in the northeast.
"You Wolf Fang belong to that unit's battle sequence.”Wu Junrui asked.
"We Wolf Fang do not belong to any combat unit. We are only doing this for ourselves and to protect the civilians who are being bullied by the Japanese.”Li Fei's words were filled with a domineering aura, causing Wu Junrui and the others to feel their blood boil.
They felt that perhaps joining Wolf Fang's unit would make them stronger even if they didn't join any unit. After a short period of thought, he immediately confirmed it.
"Brothers, if the army doesn't want us, then I don't want to wear the army uniform anymore. From today onwards, we will officially join Wolf Fang.”Wu Junrui and his officers were soldiers who obeyed orders. Since their officers felt that it was feasible, why would they be unwilling?
Wherever they went, they would kill the Japanese. Moreover, they already hated the actions of the national army.
Now that a troop had taken the initiative to invite them, how could they refuse?
