The addition of Sun Desheng gave the leaderless cavalry battalion another battalion commander.
This was the beginning of a new group of Iron Blood Cavalry.
Because of Li Yunlong's trust, Sun Desheng also secretly made up his mind to train the cavalry unit well.
Now, the new group could be said to be fully equipped, but they were lacking people.
In order to speed up the recruitment process, Li Yunlong decided to recruit soldiers himself.
Because this generation was considered the territory of the Eighth Route Army, Li Yunlong only brought a guard squad and set off.
Shin-Nakamura.
This was a small mountain village about 20 kilometers away from Xiao An Village.
There were not many people in the village, about 200 or so, and most of them were the elderly.
Because of the war, many villagers had already left their homes.
At this moment, the old and young of the village gathered at the grain-sunning field in Xinzhong Village.
The Eighth Route Army had a good reputation among the people. When they heard that the Eighth Route Army was recruiting new soldiers, they all gathered.
Looking at the crowd below, Li Yunlong said,""Hello, everyone. Let me introduce myself. I'm Li Yunlong, the commander of the 8th Route Army's new regiment.”
A new group?
Li Yunlong?
When the commoners heard this, they began to whisper to each other.
Obviously, they had heard of the new regiment of the 8th Route Army.
After all, the battle at the Gray Cloud Ridge had caused quite a stir.
This was a mighty army that resisted the Japanese.
Instantly, the commoners 'impression of Li Yunlong increased.
"The purpose of gathering all of you here today is very simple. It is to recruit soldiers and buy horses. We hope that those with lofty ideals who resist the Japanese will join our Eighth Route Army and fight against the Japanese together.”
"At this moment, our country is in ruins and our people are in danger. The Japanese are wreaking havoc on our land. Many families have been destroyed and many lives have been lost. Therefore, we should stand up and contribute to this country and our people, and even to ourselves.”
"The nation is on the brink of death, and we can only risk our lives to save it.”
Everyone present listened to Li Yun Long's words seriously.
His emotions were gradually roused.
This was mainly to mobilize the emotions of the people and the blood in their bodies.
After all, everyone was a man with guts.
"Only with a country can there be a home. Now that the country is broken, the Japanese are wreaking havoc on our land.”
"I won't talk about the great principles. I just want to say that if you join our Eighth Route Army, you will receive a monthly salary, or food, rice, oil, and other living materials of equivalent value. In short, your life will definitely be passable. It's better than being a slave of a subjugated country.”
"If we join the Eighth Route Army, we will have the ability to protect our families, our villages, and our wives and children.”
"If you die, we will take care of your family for the rest of your life. After joining our new group, you will be brothers and sisters. We will drink and eat together to fight the Japanese."
To these commoners, it might not be useful to say too much, but if it was related to their own interests, they would respond one after another.
Li Yunlong's impassioned words were very powerful, and his cadence was full of momentum.
The hot-blooded youths present were all stirred up.
At first, everyone was silent, but after a moment, a strong young man said,"Regiment Commander Li, I will fight the Japanese with you!”
"Erzhu, you're going to fight the Japanese, so I'm going too!”
One or two people began to respond.
The other hot-blooded youths also responded.
"I'm willing to join a new group!"
"I've had enough of such useless days. I want to fight the Japanese too!”
"To be able to join such a mighty army like the new group is better than being bullied by the Japanese!”
"I'm in!"
……
Many young men joined in.
The crowd was excited.
These people had been bullied by the Japanese and the puppet army.
Now, Li Yunlong had completely ignited their passion to resist. Coupled with the reputation of the new regiment and Li Yunlong, they all chose to join the new regiment.
Seeing this, Li Yunlong nodded in satisfaction and said,""Alright, those who are willing to join our new group can register here.”
The group of hot-blooded youths began to register the new recruits.
After some recruits had registered, they began to bid farewell to their families.
Some of the elders could not help but cry, but they were unusually firm in supporting their children to join the Eighth Route Army.
Some hot-blooded youths were reluctant to part with their wives and children, but they still gritted their teeth and bid farewell to the army.
Some forced a smile and said goodbye, but when they turned around, tears streamed down their faces.
…………
This farewell might become a farewell.
However, there was no other way. Now was the time for the survival of the nation. Someone had to stand up!
These people who joined the army were all good.
Li Yunlong saw it all!
