Chen Xiong's heart trembled, his face turned a little pale, and the corners of his mouth trembled a little with fright.

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Chen Xiong was immediately unusually respectful.

Just kidding, if Chen Xiong didn't lower his posture a little longer, Ye Feng directly ordered to shoot Chen Xiong to death, that is also possible, even if Chen Xiong is killed, he will be killed in vain, Chen Xiong is the following offender.

"Get out!"

Ye Feng glanced at Chen Xiong in disgust and snorted.

Ye Feng did not shoot Chen Xiong, and when Chen Xiong saw this, he took his own men and horses and rolled out of the mansion of County Magistrate Wang in an extremely embarrassed manner.

"Ha Lu Ha ......"

County Magistrate Wang, Wang Xueying, etc., saw Chen Xiong's gray and embarrassed appearance, and laughed one after another, not to mention how relieved everyone's hearts were, but I didn't expect that Chen Xiong, who was used to being domineering in Shannan County, also has today.

As soon as Chen Xiong left, everyone was in a very good mood, Ye Feng and County Magistrate Wang explained their intentions, seeing that Ye Feng wanted to recruit a large number of troops, County Magistrate Wang naturally patted his chest and agreed, fully cooperating with the Independent Brigade.

The independent brigade wanted to build barracks, warehouses, training grounds, and other infrastructure, and County Magistrate Wang also promised to give full support to mobilize the villagers of the whole county to participate in a large-scale construction.

Ye Feng's trip to Shannan County can be said to be very successful, and he received the strong support of County Magistrate Wang.

As early as two days ago, at least a dozen places in the entire county had posted large recruitment announcements, and after reading the announcements, the news that the Independent Brigade was going to recruit troops on a large scale spread throughout Shannan County.

The treatment offered on the announcement is simply too scary, so good, the people who have been used to it can't believe that this is true.

The Independent Brigade offered attractive conditions, and those who joined the Independent Brigade were given a one-time settling-in allowance of 10 yuan, and after that, a military salary of 5 yuan per month was paid.

Many ordinary people whose families are already too poor to open the pot, especially some young adults, have long been eager to try, because the conditions for recruiting soldiers are too good, and the news soon spread out of the county, that is, there are many villages in the countryside that know the Tao.

Lijia Village.

Li Tianbao, who is in his early twenties, is at the age of being strong, but at this age, having a body of strength does not mean that he can mix a mouthful of food, plus Lijia Village is located in a ravine and ravine, the land is barren, and everyone's life is very hard, and Li Tianbao's family is the same.

Li Tianbao is busy every day, and from time to time he goes up the mountain to hunt a little game, but his life is also very difficult.

"Hey......"

Li Tianbao sat at the door of his house and sighed, looking at the fifteen or sixteen-year-old brother, who was the elder brother, and the innocent sister who was twelve or thirteen years old, Li Tianbao sighed.

With the death of his father two years ago, and his mother's health is getting worse and worse, Li Tianbao feels that the burden on his body is getting heavier and heavier.

"Brother Tianbao, Brother Tianbao, good news, good news......"

Li Shishi trotted all the way, shouting happily, as if there was a big day.

"What's the good news?"

"Brother Tianbao, I went to the county seat, do you know the way? Two days later, the Independent Brigade of the Third Theater was preparing to recruit a large number of soldiers, and those who participated in the Independent Brigade would not only receive a settling-in allowance of 10 yuan immediately, but would also have a monthly salary of 5 yuan a month. ”

"Really!"

Li Tianbao grabbed Li Shishi, with an excited face, if this is the case, it is a pie in the sky, 10 oceans, Li Tianbao has never seen 10 oceans in his life.

"It's true!"

"That's great, I'm going to join the army, join the independent brigade, by the way, stone, are you going to join the army too?"

"I'm going to participate too, I've already told my dad, and my dad agreed." Li Shishi nodded immediately and was also ready to join the army.

"Stone, then we will all participate, and there will be a response in the future."

"Good!"

The two stretched out their big hands and clasped them tightly, both excited.

Within two or three days, the news of the recruitment of the Independent Brigade spread in several nearby counties, and many people had secretly decided in their hearts that they must join the Independent Brigade.

There are many villages like Lijia Village nearby, and there are even more people who get the news, like Li Tianbao, people who are living in distress are like a long drought and a rainstorm, seeing the hope and dawn of life.

When everyone was nervously preparing for the recruitment work, Ye Feng finally finalized the list of officers of the Independent Brigade and reported it to the Third War Zone for the record, and at the same time, thousands of brand-new military uniforms of the Independent Brigade were also shipped.

The commander of the major general of the independent brigade is naturally Ye Feng, the colonel chief of staff Guo Weiquan, the colonel deputy brigade commander Liu Yongyan, the colonel deputy brigade commander Chu Tianyuan, and the colonel special operations captain and deputy brigade commander Zhao Long.

Among the officers at the brigade headquarters, Guo Weiquan and Chu Tianyuan are middle-level military talents from the "Nuwa" system and are good at military command, while Zhao Long, after being promoted, is also a middle-level military talent and is good at special operations.

Among the regimental-level officers of each regiment, Ye Feng is a military talent who has adopted the "Nuwa" system in large numbers, and the full-ranking officers at the regimental level are generally middle-level military talents, but in order to facilitate the promotion of meritorious personnel in the future, each regiment has temporarily set up only one regiment commander, one regimental chief of staff, and deputy regiment commander for the time being.

The military talents synthesized through the "Nuwa" system are loyal, reliable, and of excellent level, and at the beginning of the establishment of the independent brigade, there was a shortage of military commanders, and Ye Feng consumed tens of thousands of merit points, synthesized several intermediate military talents, several junior military talents, and entrusted them with important tasks.

Battalion and company-level officers, Ye Feng did not use the military talents from the "Nuwa" system, but selected from the 500 national army personnel brought by himself, as well as his former brothers in Shizhuzhai, and the ten detachment leaders of Shizhuzhai served as battalion-level officers with good performance, such as Liu Funan, the former leader of the second detachment, served as the battalion commander, and the rest of the detachment leaders either served as battalion commanders or served as company commanders.

On October 8, 1937, the day of open recruitment arrived as scheduled.

The whole county is very lively, and there are obviously many more people of all kinds in the county than usual, and these people basically come from all over the country after hearing the news of recruitment.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the long queue, and twenty soldiers dressed in neat and brand-new national uniforms, led by a captain, walked towards the recruitment point with neat steps.
