Since the order was issued by the Governor's Office in Taipei, Chen Niu, the chief soldier of Dengzhou, who has been busy with military training and land reform in recent years, has suddenly become busy like a spinning top that has been whipped.

One after another, orders were sent from Dengzhou to the military camps stationed in various prefectures and counties through cable telegraphs erected on the land of Shandong. A day later, the middle and high-ranking officers of Dengzhou Town, who had arrived from the station, gathered in the General Military Mansion, which was located on the north side of Dengzhou Mansion.

Chen Niu, a general soldier in his twenties, propped up the table and looked at the officers sitting below with some emotion. These people, who had been tenants, porters, and vagrants a few years ago, had themselves drawn them into the army and taught them basic military skills.

And then... A group of merchants who had gone to Wendeng to do business—they were still working in Wendeng at that time—noticed their ranks. A few days later, a group of people with short hair and suits found him. After that, I went to Qingdao by myself and came into contact with a few people with special identities.

Oh, yes, those people were the intelligence officers of the Chinese Governorate of the Republic of Australia, and Zhang Daojian, who is now wanted, was still the head of those intelligence officers at that time.

After that, he accepted the guidance of the Ao-Song Dynasty and reorganized his army into the Ao-Song Republic's co-subordinate army, in fact, handed over the command of the troops. However, what did it matter if the troops of more than 100 people lost their command at that time? After that, he received all-round support from Aosong, from funds to weapons, from food to intelligence, as well as his most headache officialdom, all of which had the above support. If it weren't for the help of Aosong, I don't know how many years I would have been able to achieve my current achievements.

Chen Niu shook his head and drove away the thoughts that poured in. Now it was time for the meeting to begin, and the Aussie and Song military advisors had hung a huge and detailed Shandong-Liaodong map on the wall. With the help of the sunlight shining in from the window, several black arrows drawn in the north of the Liaonan Peninsula pointing to Lushun appear extremely clear.

The more than 20 officers of the Dengzhou Association Army present were all looking at the map, waiting for the explanation of the consultant of the Song Dynasty.

The advisor calmly took the whip and pointed to the map: "According to the latest information, Jiannu will attack Lushun in two directions. Among them, the left wing and the right wing were originally all the way, and the troops were divided in Yulinpu. The left flank advanced along the coastline of the Liaonan Peninsula, mainly to clean up the coastal islands controlled by the Dongjiang Army. In order to ensure safety, Lianyun Island, which is far away from Lushun, has been abandoned, and the garrison has been evacuated to Changsheng Island, where Lieutenant Colonel Huang Stone is located. ”

Speaking of this, the advisor pointed to another map and said, "This is the deployment map of Changsheng Island. Six days ago, Jiannu launched a sea-crossing operation with a white flag. Comrade Huang Sitong relied on the coastal forts to stubbornly resist the Jiannu naval army, and after the forced landing of Jiannu, he abandoned the beachhead, lured the Jiannu on the island to go deep into the Tuntian area, and then outflanked him with elite troops, successfully annihilated the four Niu Lu who landed on the island, and killed 326 Niu Lu and the following 326 people. ”

"In this battle to defend Changsheng Island, the casualty ratio of friend to enemy is 3.05."

"At present, Changsheng Island is still firmly in the hands of our army, and the right flank of Jiannu is threatened by our army, so we have to divide our troops to defend in Beixinkou and Nanxinkou."

The Dengzhou officers present nodded slightly. The difference is that the former describes Jiannu as a barbaric, brutal, and exceptionally powerful army, while the latter only says that Jiannu is just a group of bandits with no culture or technology.

Now tell them about the achievements of the Dongjiang Association in the army, which will help build their self-confidence.

"There is intelligence that the Slave Chief Emperor Taiji has personally led a large army to Gaizhou, and it is likely that Fuzhou will be set up as a large camp."

The adviser moved the whip down and pointed to the red arrow extending from the Shandong Peninsula: "In order to eliminate the ambition of Jiannu to provoke us, the Governor's Office has decided to carry out a comprehensive mobilization of the Liaodong Military Region and the Shandong Military Region, and transfer no less than 3 divisions, a total of 35,000 soldiers, plus a brigade of Wehrmacht infantry and part of the cavalry, to form the Liaoning South Group Army. The commander will be a famous general of our country, Major General Qi Wu. ”

While the civil and military officials of Dengzhou Town were holding a meeting in the conference room, the Mobilization Department, which was personally in charge of Liu Pihai, the No. 2 person in Dengzhou Town, was also running at the highest efficiency.

Jimo, the periphery of the courtyard wall of the military district, which has been painted snow-white, is full of residents in the city. The bustling crowd surrounded the road, and the crowd standing behind struggled to stretch their necks, trying to get past the crowd to see the gate of the military district.

Soldiers with red armbands on their arms had to shout "give way" and use wooden sticks to press residents to make way so that their comrades who had arrived from leave could squeeze through the crowd and enter the military district.

If we can look down at the city from a height of 30 meters, we can clearly see that hundreds of men in fiery red military uniforms are coming out of the east, south, and north of the city, from restaurants, restaurants, or residential buildings, and gathering towards the military garrison in the west of the city, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea.

In a certain alley in the south of the city, Private Cao Xingwen carried a large gray bag on his back and carefully walked out of the narrow alley to avoid his neat military uniform and beautiful backpack being stained by the moss on the wall.

He smoothed out a trace of wrinkles on his body, turned to his mother who came out with him, and said, "Mother, go back, I'm going to gather." ”

Mrs. Cao looked up at her son, clutching the ununtied scarf with both hands. The bright afternoon sun shone on the side of her son's face, and the red military uniform reflected a bright red light, which made her a little unable to open her eyes.

But she tried to keep her eyes open, patted her son's face with both hands, and kept repeating: "I want to come back alive." ”

Cao Xingwen pursed his lips, his eyes a little red. He subconsciously turned his face, not wanting the old lady to see the tears in the corners of his eyes.

"After eating Lord Chen's food, I have to fight for Lord Chen... Your brother is not angry, your father and mother are the only son with you who has a good future, you must come back alive... When there is a real fight, run if there is danger, don't stand on it..."

The old lady's increasingly whispering nagging was suddenly interrupted. Cao Xingwen turned his head, and Father Cao, who had just walked to the alley, was glaring at Mrs. Cao angrily and spit out two words: "Bad luck!" ”

Cao Lao Niang hung her head in front of her husband and didn't dare to speak.

"Dad, don't murder my mother."

Father Cao turned his head to look at his son. Unconsciously, his son, who was originally as tall as himself, is now a head taller than himself. He wanted to soften his complexion, but his expression, which was used to being serious, could not be relaxed, so he had to show a somewhat stiff smile: "You fight well, don't listen to your mother." She's a, what do you know? Do your best for Lord Chen, don't be afraid of losing the face of the Cao family. ”

Daddy Cao babbled a bunch of things. When he realized that he was talking about the third round of what he had said twice, he finally stopped.

After a while, Father Cao finally spoke, "If you really want to die, there are also pension departments and street offices at home to take care of, don't worry about us." ”

Cao Lao Niang raised her head angrily, reached out and grabbed her husband's arm, tears had already flowed down the corners of her eyes: "You bad old man, what nonsense are you talking about!" ”

Father Cao glanced at his wife, sighed softly, and stuffed a cloth bag that he had been holding in his hand to his son: "Your mother didn't sleep all night last night, and she baked ten catties of cakes for you, she forgot to take it out, I brought it to you." ”

Cao Xingwen took the cloth bag with both hands, carefully carried it on his shoulder, and whispered, "Dad, mother, then I'll go." ”

Father Cao nodded slightly: "Don't worry about things at home." Fight the war well... Come back alive. ”

Cao Xingwen's eyes were sour, and he happened to run by a few comrades on the street behind him and shouted at him. He immediately turned around, said to his father, and quickly followed the footsteps of his comrades, and his figure disappeared among the passers-by on the street.

By two o'clock in the afternoon, the playground in the Jimo barracks was full of soldiers with backpacks and standing straight.

As the guards sounded, all the soldiers subconsciously leaned on their feet. The sound of "bang" sounded, and everyone's eyes were focused on the front rostrum.

Standing above them was their political commissar Zhao Xuan, a very gentle young man.

Cao Xingwen stood at the front of the team and could see the political commissar very clearly. Of course, the words of the commissar can also be heard very clearly.

“...... Soon, we will go to sea from Qingdao, go to Dengzhou to join the large army, and then cross the short Bohai Sea together and go to southern Liaoning to participate in the war. ”

Looking at the sea of red like fire below, Zhao Xuan was also a little excited in his heart. He couldn't help waving his arms, and his voice became excited: "Comrades! The motherland is watching us, the nation is watching us! Millions of Liaodong compatriots who have been robbed of their hometowns are watching us! Five million compatriots in the Northeast who were killed by Jiannu, their spirits in the sky are also watching us! ”

"In order to destroy Jiannu, in order to recapture Liaodong! I declare, Jimo Battalion, now open! ”
