Two miles away from Nanzhang County, Li Yan's 108th Division was advancing at full speed. Nanzhang County was already in sight.
Along the way, all the Japanese outposts were removed by the 108th Division. Li Yan did not take any prisoners. They were all shot!
At this moment, a signalman ran to Li Yan's horse with a telegram and reported,""Master, the 9th Battle Area Command sent a telegram to our division!”
Li Yan took the telegram from the signalman and checked it.
" The order of the 9th Battle Area Commander, Chen Cheng. The 108th Division is not allowed to occupy Nanzhang County…" Li Yan smiled and shook his head. He would not carry out Chen Cheng's order.
Although his troops were the newly formed 108th Division of the Republic of China and belonged to the 9th Battle Area, the 108th Division was Li Yan's own army. He would not listen to the orders of the 9th Battle Area or even the Republic of China government.
Better be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. Li Yan understood this very well.
Moreover, he had the system, so he could exchange for more weapons and equipment in the future to arm a huge army. The entire planet was waiting for him to conquer. As for the national team, which was the nominal government of Huaxia, they could stay where they were.
"Master, what did the 9th Battle Area Command say in the telegram?”Zheng Sanlin tilted his head and peeked at the telegram in Li Yan's hand.
"Take a look. This is the order and reward given by the commander of the 9th Battle Area, Chen Cheng, to the 108th Division.”Li Yan passed the telegram to the battalion and company level officers behind him.
Soon, the battalion commanders and company commanders of the 108th Division read the telegram.
"Master, is there something wrong with this Chen Cheng's brain? The Kawasaki Brigade has been completely wiped out by us. There are only a few dozen Japanese soldiers in Nanzhang County now. This is the best time for our 108th Division to recover our lost territory!”Ma Kui spoke in a carefree manner, completely disregarding Chen Cheng, a first-class general of the national army.
The 108th Division used to be the Nanzhang Royal Association Army. In short, the 108th Division did not have much connection with the national team, so Ma Kui did not have any respect for Chen Cheng. He would only obey Li Yan's orders.
"Old Ma, Chen Cheng is the commander of the 9th Battle Area. How can you say that? Moreover, Commander Chen Cheng has also specially approved 3,000 new recruits and 50,000 yuan for our 108th division!”Zheng Sanlin couldn't help but speak up. He was a commander, so he naturally had to speak up for Chen Cheng.
"Tsk, what bullsh * t commander? I don't know him, and I don't want to know him. I'll do whatever Master says!”Ma Kui raised his head and secretly sized up his teacher's expression.
As expected, his words made the master very satisfied, and he immediately revealed a smile.
"Master, since the commander of the 9th Battle Area has given us an order, should we still go to Nanzhang County?”The commander of the 3rd Battalion, Zhao Si Hai, looked at Li Yan and said.
"I can accept the reward from the 9th battle area. As for this order, just pretend you didn't see it.”Li Yan said with a faint smile. Then, he raised his whip and whipped the horse under him, speeding up.
…………………
Ten minutes passed, and the 108th Division's mighty army arrived outside Nanzhang County. Some of the Nanzhang County people who entered the city retreated to the sides of the road, afraid of provoking these soldiers.
At the city gate, the 12 Japanese soldiers on duty did not know that the Kawasaki Brigade had been destroyed. They naturally recognized that this unit was the Imperial Association Army of Nanzhang County.
Da! Da! Da!
Suddenly, gunshots rang out. Li Yan's platoon of guards raised their Type 56 semi-automatic rifles at lightning speed and directly killed the 12 Japanese soldiers.
Seeing this scene, the citizens who were entering and leaving Nanzhang County widened their eyes as if they had seen a ghost.
What did they see? The Imperial Association Army in Nanzhang County had actually killed 12 Japanese soldiers.
Heavens, weren't the Imperial Association Army in Nanzhang County all Second Devils? How would they dare to attack the Japanese? And he even killed someone!
At this moment, Li Yan, who was riding a tall horse, also arrived at the city gate. He looked around at the crowd gathered at the city gate, ready to enter and exit the city, and shouted,"Dear fellow villagers, I, Li Yan, have led the Nanzhang Imperial Association Army to accept the amnesty of the national government. My army is no longer the Imperial Association Army, but the newly formed 108th Division of the Republic of Xia.”
"Also, a few hours ago, the Kawasaki Battalion was wiped out by the 108th Division.”
"From today onwards, Nanzhang County will be taken over by the 108th division. I hope that all of you can pass this news to your relatives and friends!”
After saying these words, Li Yan rode his tall horse into Nanzhang County under the escort of the guards.
At the city gate, Nan Zhangren, who had gathered here, looked at the troops that were entering the city and started a heated discussion.
"Are you serious? Li Yan's Second Ghost soldiers accepted the amnesty of the national team and became the 108th Division. Then, won't Li Yan become the commander of the Republic of China?”
"What? The Kawasaki Brigade was wiped out by Li Yan. How was that possible?! Would Li Yan's soldiers dare to fight the Japanese soldiers?”
"Everyone knows Li Yan's character very well. Although he was the commander of the Second Ghost, he didn't do anything to his fellow countrymen. This matter should be true. The Nanzhang Royal Association Army has really become the 108th Division of the Republic of China!”
……………………………………
In less than half an hour, the entire Nanzhang County was in an uproar. Everyone knew that the Nanzhang Imperial Association Army led by Li Yan had accepted the amnesty of the national team. The Nanzhang Imperial Association Army had turned into an anti-Japanese army!
Furthermore, Li Yan also said that the 108th Division had completely wiped out the Kawasaki Battalion. Regarding this matter, most people in Nanzhang County remained skeptical and could not believe it at all.
However, after a few hours, news began to spread from all directions. The news of the battle between the 108th Division and the Kawasaki Brigade swept through the entire Nanzhang area like a tide.
Some storytellers took this opportunity to set up open-air teahouses and began to explain the entire battle in detail.
Li Yan and the 108th division he led had become the center of attention, almost reaching the point where everyone knew about them!
Especially Li Yan, many Nanzhang people described him as a god of war who had descended to the mortal world, with the means to strategize and win thousands of miles.
Many people believed that Li Yan had been enduring hardships and tasting courage, keeping a low profile, just like the ancient King of Yue, Gou Jian.
To the Nanzhang people, the destruction of the Kawasaki Brigade and the 108th Division taking over Nanzhang County meant that the entire Nanzhang area had once again returned to the embrace of the Republic of Xia!
