Long Wenzhang's words not only deeply touched the hearts of the soldiers, but also touched Zhang Sen's heart.
He stood on the carriage and shouted,""Look at you now. Are you still men of the Northeast Army? Our Northeast Army was invincible in the past, and we are still invincible now. If you're men, raise your heads and look into my eyes.”
All the soldiers raised their heads at the same time, staring straight into Zhang Sen's eyes that were filled with fighting spirit.
"It doesn't matter if you acknowledge me as your leader or not, I'm going to lead my men back to the northeast." Zhang Sen raised his arms and shouted. My home is on the Songhua River in the northeast, where I was born and raised. I'm going to fight the Japanese right now. If you still have a bit of the courage of the Northeasterners, pick up your guns and follow me. Don't let our parents suffer in the Northeasterners. Don't let the whole world poke our spines and call us trash!”
A soldier was so excited that tears streamed down his face."General, I'll go with you. My mother is still waiting for me at home. Even if I die, I will die in my hometown in the northeast. I will never wander in the Central Plains.”
"General, I'll go with you to fight the Rising Sun Empire.”
"General, I will follow you!"
For a moment, hundreds and thousands of people roared.
They didn't want to lose their homes. Who would want to live a life of wandering?
Now that Zhang Sen had stepped forward, even if his identity was not a general, as long as he was willing to lead everyone back to the northeast, he would be the general in everyone's hearts.
"Long Wenzhang, take in the troops!" Zhang Sen shouted excitedly.
Long Wenzhang immediately began to recruit these troops.
In less than an hour, the 3,570-man army was reorganized.
Three thousand men could barely make up a brigade, but Zhang Sen gave up.
He felt that in the current situation, this three-thousand-strong army would be easier to control with a reinforced regiment.
"General!" "Now that the troops have it, our weapons?" Long Wenzhang chuckled.”
"I knew you'd always be thinking about weapons!" Zhang Sen smiled.”
Long Wenzhang said awkwardly," There's no other way, General. We do have an army, but a clever housewife can't cook without rice." Look at the weapons we are equipped with. They are no different from fire sticks. How can we fight against the Japanese?”
Zhang Sen nodded with emotion. He knew that the best weapons of the Northeast Army had been sealed in the warehouse and handed over to the Japanese. The rest were all in the hands of the main force of Major Xueliang, who had retreated outside the pass with them.
As for Zhang Sen's troops, they used old-fashioned Hanyang guns, and many of the rifling lines had been smoothed out.
As for the cannons, there were none. The only two mortars were lost in the previous battle.
With their current weapons, fighting against the elite Guandong Army was equivalent to sending more than three thousand people to their deaths.
"Let's go to Chengde!" "Tang Yulin of Heat Province has a lot of good stuff in his armory," Zhang Sen said. I heard that he has already run away with his treasure. Let's go rob his mother.”
Long Wenzhang's eyes lit up and he laughed,""Good idea. Tang Yulin doesn't want to fight against Japan anyway. The weapons are cheap for the Japanese. It's better for us to fight the Japanese.”
Zhang Sen immediately led the army to Chengde.
He stored all the weapons given by the system in an empty warehouse in Chengde. He only needed to bring his troops over to retrieve them.
An hour later, Zhang Sen's troops arrived at Chengde, but the soldiers guarding the city stopped them from entering.
"This is General Zhang. Let us in quickly.”Long Wenzhang roared.
The officer guarding the city shook his head." Stop lying. When did the Northeast Army have such a young general?" Our Young Marshal is currently in the British Settlement in Tianjin, so he doesn't have the time to care about this place. Leader Tang ordered that no troops were allowed to enter the city.”
Zhang Sen frowned. He knew that Tang Yulin was a jerk. He had run away from the resistance, but he didn't allow the Anti-Japanese Army and other troops to enter the city to rest. He was afraid that his city would be occupied by others.
"Major, what should we do?" Long Wenzhang asked.
" Hmph!" Zhang Sen snorted coldly." We're going to fight our way back to our hometown. Whoever dares to block our way is our enemy." If he is an enemy, our Northeast Army will fight him to the death.”
"Fight to the death." The 3,000 soldiers shouted excitedly.
"Shun Liu!" Zhang Sen shouted angrily,"Whoever dares to block our way, blow up that bastard's head!"”
"Yes, sir!" At this moment, Shunliu put away his childish aura and raised his gun with a murderous aura. He aimed at the officer who shouted and shot off his hat.
Tang Yulin's troops were not strong enough to begin with. When the officer's hat was knocked off, he immediately squatted down in fear. The rest of the soldiers also fell to the ground.
Zhang Sen immediately shouted at the soldiers,"Brothers, follow me into the city and take out your weapons to fight the devils."”
More than 3,000 soldiers followed Zhang Sen and rushed into Chengde City.
At this moment, there were still tens of thousands of Northeast Army soldiers in Chengde. When the commander of the city guard heard that a unit dared to barge into Chengde, he immediately became angry and wanted to gather the troops to surround and annihilate them.
"Bastard, this is Marshal Tang's territory. Who dares to behave atrociously here?”The commander roared," Brothers, follow me. I want to see which bunch of fools are courting death!"”
Just as he led his men out of the command center, one of his subordinates rushed over to report,""Sir, it's bad. The Japanese army is here."
The commander was so frightened that he almost knelt down. Without thinking, he shouted at his subordinates,"Retreat, quickly retreat. The Japanese are here.”
"What about those people who rushed into the city?" the adjutant asked hurriedly.”
The commander stomped his feet anxiously." What's there to care about? Our priority is to escape. Retreat!"”
Tang Yulin's 10,000-strong Northeast Army retreated from Chengde, but they didn't know that the Japanese army they found only had 128 Japanese cavalry.
