After bidding farewell to the Eighth Route Army's boss, Chu Yunfei led the troops back to the station.
As soon as Chu Yunfei got off his horse, he was immediately welcomed by the entire brigade!
Sun Ming and the others came up excitedly.""Traveler, we've all heard about you wiping out the Yamazaki Brigade. This time, our brigade has really gotten the limelight. I'm afraid that the entire Northwest Shanxi knows about us!”
An officer led Chu Yunfei's horse and said,"" I'm afraid that the Japanese won't even dare to retaliate if they get slapped in the future. They're already scared of us, haha…"
The corner of Chu Yunfei's mouth curled up. He naturally knew why everyone was so excited.
Back then, they had relied on medicinal herbs to defeat the Sakata United Team. Before they could even display their strength, the Sakata United Team had already lost their fighting strength.
However, this time, it was a real fight. They took out a large group of Japanese soldiers head-on.
They used pure martial strength, which was enough to show their strength!
Everyone was naturally very happy.
Chu Yunfei looked at everyone and smiled." This is just the beginning. The Japanese will definitely come to find trouble with us. We can't let our guard down just because of one victory. Everyone, you have to hurry up and train!"”
"Don't worry, traveler," Sun Ming said with a smile. Everyone hasn't been idle during the two days you've been gone. They've been training hard!”
Chu Yunfei nodded in satisfaction.
He turned around and looked at the few hundred soldiers in his own unit. Then, he thought about how the Yamazaki Battalion alone had more than a thousand Japanese soldiers. He suddenly felt that it was a little too little.
In this battle with the Yamazaki Battalion, he had seen how Eight Paths had used the human wave tactic.
If they encountered the Japanese army in the future, it would definitely not be enough!
Since the higher-ups had already approved the establishment of a brigade, he would definitely need to recruit soldiers and buy horses!
Previously, Yan Laoxi had hated him and refused to give him any extra weapons, equipment, or food.
This was why his recruitment was restricted!
But now, he didn't need it. With the new weapon, everything else could be solved!
Chu Yunfei immediately said to Fang Ligong and the others,"After the battle with the Yamazaki Brigade, I feel that the number of troops is too small, so I'm going to recruit soldiers immediately!"”
"Traveler, how many more people do you think we need to recruit?" Fang Ligong nodded.”
"We still need to recruit 1,500 people to form a strengthened brigade!" Chu Yunfei said in a deep voice.”
Chu Yunfei was very thoughtful. He couldn't afford to hire too many people.
If Yan Laoxi didn't give him extra food, he wouldn't be able to conjure it for the time being.
Moreover, it was more important to have more people, so there was no need for so many people.
The next morning.
Fang Ligong and the others were ordered to spread the news of the recruitment.
Chu Yunfei personally went to arrange the matters after the next person arrived.
In the afternoon.
Fang Ligong suddenly pushed open Chu Yunfei's office door and panted,""Brigade…Traveler, please come out."
Chu Yunfei frowned.”
Fang Ligong swallowed his saliva and looked at Chu Yunfei excitedly,""Traveler, good news. You'll know when you see it!”
Chu Yunfei didn't know what was going on, so he nodded and followed Fang Ligong out.
After leaving, Chu Yunfei was completely shocked.
He saw that there were people outside the town. It seemed that all the people from the surrounding villages had come!
These people added together were probably more than the number of people in the original movie when Li Yunlong attacked Ping 'an County!
Chu Yunfei looked around and found that there were old people and young people in the crowd. There were even women.
Fang Ligong scratched his head and smiled bitterly."Traveler, we just released the news of your recruitment this morning. Everyone came after hearing it.”
"These people have been harmed by the devils. They heard that you attacked the devils, so they want to follow you to kill the devils for revenge.”
Chu Yunfei looked at the crowd in front of him and felt very emotional.
He could understand how these people felt, but he really did not need so many people, especially the elderly, women, and children.
Chu Yunfei quickly walked to the front of the crowd, picked up a simple loudspeaker and shouted,"Villagers! I'm very grateful that you're willing to follow me, Chu Yunfei, to fight the Japanese. However, protecting the country is the job of us men. The elderly, children, and women only need to be responsible for the family. Moreover, we only accept adult men!”
A woman squeezed out of the crowd." Officer Chu, my man and children were killed by the devils. I'm the only one left at home. I can shoot the devils with a gun. Please let me join the army, Officer Chu. I won't cause trouble for the army!"”
With this woman taking the lead, the crowd once again boiled over.
A child standing in front of the crowd looked at Chu Yunfei with a serious face,""Sir, my name is Hu Wa. I'm already 14 years old. My father and brother died at the hands of the Japanese. I heard that you can fight the devils, so I came from five miles away to ask you to let me fight the devils with the troops!”
At this moment, a white-haired old man pushed his three sons to Chu Yunfei and knelt down with a thud!
Chu Yunfei quickly stepped forward and helped the old man up,""Sir, what are you doing? If you have something to say, say it properly. We are regular soldiers, not landowners and old wealth.”
The white-haired old man held Chu Yunfei's hand, tears rolling in his eyes,""Sir, my name is Qian Zhen. I passed the imperial examination in my early years. After the devils came in, they slaughtered the people of our village. We fled here and heard that you are recruiting soldiers here. You want my three useless sons to join the army to fight the devils.”
Fang Ligong couldn't stand it anymore."Old man, I don't think you're young anymore. You sent all three of your sons to join the army. What are you going to do?”
The white-haired old man quickly waved his hand." Sir, don't worry about me. I can survive on my own. I only hope that you can accept my three sons!"”
Chu Yunfei had mixed feelings and was very touched.
He heaved a long sigh in his heart, If the people of the country are like this, why worry about the enemy not being destroyed?”
"Fang Ligong, register!"
"Yes, sir!"
After a round of screening, Chu Yunfei left behind 1,500 young men and some women to form a medical team. Finally, he left behind some children to form a reconnaissance team.
Children usually wouldn't arouse the enemy's suspicion, so they were the most suitable to be used as scouts.
After the recruitment of the new troops, Chu Yunfei began to think about how to quickly train them so that they could quickly become qualified soldiers.
