"Run, run, speed up...... You've only run five kilometers, are you pretending to be a grandson? That's how you call yourself elite? It's all a bunch of waste idiots......"

"Whoever dares to take off his military coat will be fired! You can use this cotton coat for almost ten months in the year of the Far East War, and even in winter you have to wear more clothes, now you must adapt to me, adapt!"

"Hold on to your rifle straps...... This is the latest Mauser rifle, and the cost price of one is 50 taels of silver! Not only that, but the gun is the life of a soldier, and if you don't care about it, you will get out of here......

The Hokkaido region, known as Ezo in ancient times, is a vast and sparsely populated area full of high mountains and dense forests, which is really suitable for special forces operations.

Long Ye never expected that there were 1,200 wild samurai gathered in Hakodate, plus the more than 600 daimyo family samurai he had gathered before, there were as many as 1,800 Japanese soldiers in the Far East Volunteer Army alone.

This has far exceeded previous expectations, and the number of Japanese samurai in Xiao Letian's plan is at most in the early 1,000s, plus the more than 400 veterans of the New Army who are now lurking on the Korean border, can support the skeleton of the volunteers.

The veterans of the New Army served as officers at the battalion and company platoon level, while the Japanese soldiers were officers at the squad and platoon level, and finally a large number of Far Eastern Han, Manchu, and Oroqen soldiers were recruited, so that the structure of the Far Eastern Volunteer Army was formed.

Now the CIA has hundreds of intelligence officers lurking east of the Ussuri River, and nearly eighty percent of the villages have established contacts, although I dare not say that everyone will support the volunteers, but everyone's common enemy is Lao Maozi, and all the villages have at least expressed their moral support, which is the basis of the people's will.

But now the number of Japanese samurai has almost doubled, which has changed the size and structure of the entire volunteer army, and the original funds have to be increased, and the supplies have to be redeployed, and even the ships in Hakodate Bay are not enough, and it will take at least fifteen days to prepare these supplies.

However, Long Ye is going to disobey the order once this time, if he is overcrowded, then he will be exceeded, now he is not willing to fire any soldiers, these are all samurai who have sworn allegiance to the military flag, and they are all soldiers who have worked hard to follow from thousands of miles, each of them is a treasure.

The telegram had already been sent to Xiao Letian's desk, Xiao Letian knew that the generals would not be subject to the orders of the foreign monarchs, and he would not give the generals discouragement before the expedition, so he said, "Full support, what you want!"

Long Ye will not waste the time waiting for supplies and merchant ships, he began to train frantically, he wants to get these warriors into the state immediately. It was too late to conduct platoon training, and guerrilla warfare in Baishan and Heishui did not need to be a grand positional warfare, so running, lurking, and shooting training became the most important items.

As for the necessary discipline cultivation of the new army, there was no need for these Japanese samurai at all, and there was not a single incident of discipline violation in the training team of 1,800 people, and the most important thing about the spirit of bushido was obedience, and this spirit was completely imprinted in the blood, and there was no need for training at all.

"Forward...... Lined up...... Immediately after three shots, return to the camp...... The 200 people who ran at the back did not have dinner to eat, and speed is life on the battlefield......"

More than 1,800 tired dog-like soldiers in the dense forest fired three shots in the target area and then turned around and began to run back.

At this time, the beginning of autumn has passed, and the climate in southern Japan is still warm, but on Ezo Island, the sky is already full of deciduous forests, and the leaves are mixed with red and yellow.

The autumn wind was cold, the stream was cold, and the cruel Long Ye deliberately drove them into the stream and river, and the thick military coat was soaked in water, how heavy and cold it was, but no one dared to resist the opportunity that everyone exchanged for their lives, and no one wanted to lose it.

Long Ye was shocked, he had never seen such obedient soldiers, although the soldiers of the Marine Corps were not weaker than them, but one was trained, and the other was born, which was incomparable.

Whenever someone fell behind and someone was paralyzed and couldn't walk, Long Ye would ride his horse and rush over and shout, "Remember every word I said, sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime......!"

"The desperate work now is for the sake of survival in the future!Get up, get up immediately......" The leather whip shook out whips in mid-air, and the crackling cracks hit the soldiers who jumped up like rabbits and ran wildly.

Long Ye looked at the soldiers who were scurrying all over the mountain, and said coldly, "Run, from today on, running is your fate, there are 400,000 square kilometers of land east of the Ussuri River that you need to run, and there are 600,000 square kilometers of land on the north bank of the Heilongjiang River that also need you to run wild......"

"If you want to build a Far Eastern country, let's start by running, and see if you can run a future between the white mountains and black waters......

In the past fifteen days, Hakodate Castle has successively transported other materials and equipment, and the soldiers' equipment is now complete. The military coat was tied with a leather armed belt, and the bullet magazines on it were half a circle around the waist one by one, and there were neatly tied bedding and sleeping bags on the back, and water bottles, sapper shovels, and tinplate lunch boxes were also hung on them.

The Mauser, with a good bayonet, carried it on his shoulder, a pair of high-quality leather boots per person, and even four pairs of thick wool warm socks per person.

What's more eye-catching is the leather hat with a distinctive personality, the material is different, the cheap ones are dog skin, sheepskin, and the better ones are wolf skins or even fox skins, which are worn on the top of the head and look very big.

The clothes looked strange, but not many people complained, because the temperature in Ezo had begun to drop rapidly in the last half month, and there was information from the sea that snow had begun to fall in the Far East on the other side.

In such a cold climate, it is also a kind of luck to have such warm equipment, and it doesn't matter if it looks good or not.

Fifteen days later, the army finally made all preparations, and in the evening the heavily armed soldiers at the Hakodate pier began to board the ship in silence, and twenty boats, led by the most experienced old fishermen, sailed northwest in the wind and waves, and the Far Eastern War of Independence, which shocked the world, finally began.

There are always some things that are very coincidental, just when Long Ye's fleet began to set sail, there was also a fleet in Vladivostok that was also ready for battle, and the flagship of the Russian Navy in the Far East, the Aleut, had been raised to the fullest, and under the arch of two corvettes, it headed for Daqingdao on the sea.

"Your Majesty's warriors, there are more than a thousand Chinese on that small island in the open sea, and they are secretly mining gold, and it is all His Majesty's gold, and the pigs must not be allowed to steal it......"

"Warriors, polish your bayonets, tonight we will bloody Qingdao and regain the gold that belongs to us......"

The three battleships were jubilant: "Gold, gold, gold......"
