NOVEL WEB Chapter 203
A few days passed quickly.
Although Shanxi Province was an enemy-occupied area and the information from the government was relatively slow, the news about the reorganization of the Tiger Guards still quickly swept across the entire Shanxi Province.
Lu Zhixian!
Tiger Guards!
Great victory at Qingfeng Village!
When these words were combined together.
All the people instantly became very interested, and at the same time, the image of a glorious and heroic young man was suddenly established. Whether it was the famous families in various counties or ordinary people in the streets and alleys, almost everyone was talking about this matter, and also telling about the great achievements of Lu Zhixian and his Tiger Guards. Of course, they also exaggerated and cursed the old commander of the Shanxi Suiyuan Army for his incompetence!
"Damn it! The old commander of the Shanxi Suiyuan Army is really blind!"
"Hmph, I don't think he is blind! The old commander is clearly jealous of talented people, he is simply not a human being!"
"Fortunately, Lu Zhixian is talented and is not affected by being driven away at the beginning. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a complete destruction of a hero of the War of Resistance against Japan who has great potential?"
"What a great Tiger Guard! I want to join the army, I want to join the Tiger Guard!"
"..."
In the entire Shanxi Province, except for the deep mountains and old forests, almost all the people are talking about this.
Just as Chief of Staff Wang expected.
The old commander of the Shanxi Suiyuan Army, who originally had a bad reputation, took a sharp turn for the worse, so that recently all the units of the Shanxi Suiyuan Army scattered near the counties were implicated, and every time he met the people, he was met with crazy cold eyes.
...
Black Cloud Village.
Martial Arts Hall.
Lu Zhixian simply ignored the voices from the outside world, and he has been staying at the base recently.
Although the Tiger Guards not only savagely destroyed the Japanese's arrogance after the victory of this battle, but also gained a lot of benefits, he also knew that the Japanese would never give up. With their own side completely exposed, the Japanese will launch a larger-scale cleanup in the future.
For this reason, he needs to make various preparations in advance.
"Captain!"
Chen Feng, as a think tank backbone, also said with some worry: "I just received news from the military station chief Tian that the Japanese's cleanup operations in various regions of Shanxi Province are very smooth. Most of the anti-Japanese armed forces around the counties in the northwest and northeast have been wiped out. Even if many of them fled into the mountains, the strength of each unit has suffered heavy losses. After all, the power of the Japanese is still very strong now!"
"Yeah."
Lu Zhixian nodded.
After officially joining the government.
The intelligence network of the Tiger Guards was instantly expanded. The intelligence system of the Military Control Commission's stations in Shanxi Province was naturally opened to him, which also made it possible for him to quickly understand the movements of various places in a more detailed manner.
Just after reading the various intelligence sent over there.
Lu Zhixian felt very heavy.
Although he had long known that the current situation was still very serious, and the situation in the early 1940s, especially in the battlefield behind enemy lines, would become more and more difficult, he did not expect that the entire situation would be so difficult. The anti-Japanese forces in the entire Shanxi Province were comprehensively wiped out, and the resistance in various places was ruthlessly extinguished. It can be said that except for the great victory of Qingfengzhai, there was almost no decent record in all parts of the province.
It is no wonder that the government spent so much money to recruit the Anti-Japanese Group!
This situation is indeed extremely difficult!
"Captain!"
At this time, Han Shaogong also said in a deep voice: "We have hit the Japanese elite many times before, and now we have been awarded the Flying Tiger Flag by the government. We are definitely a thorn in the eyes of the Japanese. I think it won't be long before the Japanese will definitely draw out their elite to deal with us. At that time, I am afraid it will be another fierce battle."
"That's right!"
Lu Zhixian nodded again.
He looked around and said seriously: "Everyone! We did win a big victory just now, but now the Japanese are still extremely powerful. There are two standing divisions in Shanxi Province, as well as a large number of field troops and vassal troops. We must not take it lightly. According to my estimation, the Japanese will definitely not sit still and ignore us. It is estimated that they will take action in two months at most!"
"It seems that the situation is really tense!"
Yang Zhihua, who was originally a little proud, also showed a worry at this time.
Lu Zhixian said in a deep voice: "The most important thing now is to improve our strength! During this period, each department must expand as soon as possible. Only by quickly improving our combat effectiveness can we cope with any emergencies in the future!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Everyone nodded in response immediately.
"Report!"
Just then, Wei Dayong suddenly ran over in a hurry, shouting excitedly: "There are so many people outside!"
"Huh?"
Lu Zhixian raised his eyebrows.
Wei Dayong said excitedly: "Captain, Deputy Captain Zhou just called,There are so many people outside Qingfeng Village! It is said that they all heard that we are recruiting soldiers, and all of them came to join our Tiger Guards! "
"Really?"
"Absolutely true!"
"Great!"
Lu Zhixian was very excited to hear this.
...
More than half an hour later.
Lu Zhixian came to Qingfeng Village with a group of backbones.
As soon as they entered the parade ground, everyone present was instantly surprised.
So many people.
Really so many people.
On the parade ground, thousands of young people were standing densely, most of whom were young and strong militiamen in their twenties. In addition, there were many young girls standing there, almost filling up the entire parade ground.
"Captain!"
At this time, Zhou Weiguo came over excitedly and said excitedly: "We have so many new recruits who come here because of our reputation. They all come for our Tiger Guards! ”
“All of them are here to enlist?”
“Yes!”
“How many people are there?”
“There must be at least 2,000 people, and the recruiting teams are still on their way back, so there will probably be even more by then!”
“Great!”
Lu Zhixian couldn’t help but look overjoyed.
“Captain!”
Zhou Weiguo, who has always been calm, also seemed very excited at this time, and said hurriedly: “These are all after the recruitment teams have screened, otherwise there will be more than now!”
“Is this the benefit of joining the government? !”
Han Shaogong was also very excited at this time, and said hurriedly: “In the past, we recruited new recruits from all over the country. Although we have recruited many patriots, we still need to spend a lot of effort to explain to them that we are not bandits. But I didn’t expect that we would recruit so many people in just a few days this time, and judging from their appearance, it is obvious that their quality is much better than that of ordinary people!”
“Isn’t it? ! "
Zhou Weiguo nodded and said with a smile: "Who doesn't know our Tiger Guards now? Since the government's newspaper propaganda, the people of Shanxi Province know that we have won the Qingfeng Village victory and have the Flying Tiger Flag Anti-Japanese War Heroic Army. Which patriot would not want to kill the devils in such an army?"
Yes.
Although the Tiger Guards were constantly recruiting soldiers from all over the country and recruited many anti-Japanese patriots, the effect was generally not ideal.
After all.
Who is willing to follow the bandit village to fight the devils?
If it is possible, they all hope to follow the government to kill the enemy and serve the country. At least they will be the Shanxi Suiyuan Army or the Eighth Route Army!
"Captain!"
Yang Zhihua was straightforward and said immediately: "Our heavy artillery battalion is the firepower output of the regiment. The previous organization was not enough. This time you have to let us replenish it first!"
"No, no! ”
Chen Feng on the other side immediately waved his hands, instantly unhappy: "Why is it that your heavy artillery battalion always gets priority for replenishment? Our 1st Infantry Battalion is also planning to establish a reinforced battalion with American weapons!" (112/2000)
