On the afternoon of May 1, 1939, Wuchang County had just experienced a small battle, and it seemed unusually calm. Meng Qingshan, who had just finished handling the matter, came to the train station to visit the captured compatriots who had just regained their freedom, and the prisoners who had just been rescued stood neatly in front of the podium, and nearly a thousand people were densely packed and could not see the edge at a glance. Meng Qingshan stood on the stage, his heart was very excited, seeing that these people were all hanging on their bodies, and there was only a pair of pants left in their bodies, obviously the Japanese army was to prevent them from escaping, these are all strong lives, although they have endured the devastation of winter, but they are still standing pines and cypresses. He raised his hand and saluted them and said, "Brothers, fellow citizens, I am too late to make you suffer. After speaking, he bowed deeply to everyone. I am very touched by the fact that none of our nearly 1,000 people betrayed the motherland, betrayed the country, and sought satisfaction from the enemy. On behalf of the country, I would like to thank you for not tarnishing the honor of being a middle-class person and not becoming an accomplice to the enemy. You are all heroes and heroines. I salute you. ”

After speaking, I saluted everyone again. "Although we have suffered setbacks and sufferings in the early stage, it is only a small twist and turn in the journey to victory, because we have noble struggles, we have iron will, and the road we have taken is an incomparably glorious road." The whole of China will be reborn because of our struggle and sacrifice, and we are fighting the aggressors to rescue our invaded homeland. Therefore, we will not regret it, we will not be depressed, and we will not give up our ideals. We still have to fight, we have to live well, we have to destroy all the enemies who have hurt us with our own hands, and we have to build our country with our own hands, so that our children and grandchildren can live a happy life of equality, tranquility and prosperity without suffering, famine, and war. ”

"Okay—"

"First of all, let me introduce myself, I am Meng Qingshan, the commander of the Independent Division of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Army, and you can't go back to the original place when you go to the Northeast, because the blockade of the little devils is very serious, and it is difficult to move an inch without a certificate of good citizenship here, so you will now face two choices, one is to join us and continue to fight against the invaders, and the other is to walk back to your hometown by yourself."

"First of all, I hope everyone can stay and fight with me against the Japanese invaders, but I am not an unreasonable person, if there are people who are unwilling to continue fighting, I am willing to give each person two fast oceans as the fare to go home, as for whether you can escape the pursuit of the little devils, this is not what I can help you, after all, my ability can only send you some travel expenses."

"Of course, I want to tell you about the situation we are going to face, at this moment there are hundreds of thousands of fierce Japanese puppet troops around us, and we will always be surrounded by little devils, during this period we may face starvation, lack of medical treatment, lack of ammunition, and the soldiers who want to join our army may die at any time."

"Due to the urgency of time, I must organize the soldiers who are willing to participate in us as soon as possible, form a strong combat effectiveness, and carry out active operations against the enemy, of course, there are not many personnel in the independent division, fighting alone, the task is arduous, full of dangers, everyone's belonging is different, I don't force everyone, you can go if you want to, please stand aside, I will pay you the travel expenses. Did anyone leave? "We're not leaving."

"We're going to fight."

"We want revenge."

...... "Very good, brothers, I am very relieved, although we have suffered a temporary defeat and suffered great humiliation, our faith has not wavered, our fighting spirit has not collapsed, and we are still heroic people." As long as we are united, unanimous, heroic and fearless, carry forward the fine style of the Chinese people, and adhere to flexible and mobile strategies and tactics, we will certainly be able to return the humiliation imposed on us by the enemy and let the arrogant and barbaric Japanese aggressors break their heads in front of us. Do you have any faith—"

"Yes!"

"Since you don't want to go, it seems that everyone is willing to fight devils with us, now I hope that some of you who have been officers will come out for a while, and the rest of you will rest in place, and someone will bring food and clothes in a while." After a while, dozens of people stood up among the thousands of people, and walked over under the leadership of Xiaohuzi, "Report to the chief, Guo Bingxun, the captain of the 41st Army of the Sichuan Army, reports to you. "Report to the chief, Zhou Yuewu, the second lieutenant company commander of the 41st Army of the Sichuan Army, reports to you" "The head of the report, Wang Lianshan, the battalion commander of the Independent Regiment of the 129th Division of the 18th Group Army of the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan Military Region, reports to you. He had no choice but to return the salute "Hard work" and "Welcome, welcome." "It's busy.

I didn't expect to meet the comrades in the pass, I thought that only ** was captured, but I didn't expect that there was also the Eighth Route Army, and it was still a big official, and I continued to ask only to learn that in March this year, I was captured because I was stunned by a shell during the anti-Japanese Nine-Way Siege and the Japanese army. After saying that, Wang Lianshan was very angry, he may be the first batch of officers captured since the Eighth Route Army went to resist Japan, fortunately, the soldiers who were captured together had a hard mouth, the little devil thought that he was an ordinary Eighth Route Army soldier and transported it to the three northeastern provinces together, ready to be used for human experiments, this human test was newly developed by the little devil, and was used to deal with the Chinese troops who resisted on the battlefield, so Shiro Ishii sent a report to North China hoping that North China could send a group of physically strong Chinese to support his great experiment, In order to prevent the escape of these soldiers, the Japanese army put them in the carriage and welded the carriage to death, leaving only one mouth to deliver food, and some small holes to gasp, so they did not send a large number of troops to escort, only sent a small number of troops to escort. With the help of these captive officers, the rescue operation was much faster. With the support of the soldiers, all the captive ** people were resettled, put on clothes, for which Meng Qingshan deliberately let the cooking squad kill a few heads, drank hot mutton soup, ate a full stomach, covered with quilts, and fell asleep. Quiet has returned to the county.

Meng Qingshan is very proud, the more than 1,000 rescued people have been free from the tragic fate of being ravaged, devastated, killed, and experimented, they are all heroic Chinese people, they are the country's precious wealth, and they are the vanguard of the small Japanese army in the future. Hahahaha......

And in the police station not far from here. "What's wrong with Lao Zhang, aren't you going to recruit soldiers? Why did you come back alone, didn't you recruit it? Wang Yachen asked suspiciously. It's not Lao Wang, that kid surnamed Meng is too yin, I said why did he let us recruit so generously, we recruited very well, but I didn't expect him to send a group of female soldiers to perform a show, attracting all the people who want to join the army to him, I was angry. Zhang Zhongxi said breathlessly.

"Lao Zhang, don't be angry, it's all the Anti-Japanese Federation, who recruits soldiers and doesn't recruit, they are all devils, don't be so careful." Wang Weiyu, who was on the side, said: "I think it's better to merge with them, commander!" ”

"How can I merge, I am the army commander, he is the division commander, if it is merged, who will listen to whom?" Zhang Zhongxi shouted.

"Merge?" Wang Yachen lowered his head and whispered. "The merger of army commanders is good for all of us, first, the round-up of the little devils has been getting longer and longer, and the number of troops is getting bigger and bigger, if we continue to fight like this, our ten armies will be exhausted, and only when we merge together can we better combat the arrogance of the Japanese puppet army."

"They are only a few hundred more than us, anyway, I'm fine, just let me fight the devils and let me lead the troops." Zhang Zhongxi said. "Oh, and there's good news." "What's the good news?"

"When I saw Wen Nian just now, I asked him about the more than 1,000 captured soldiers in the Guannai who had just been rescued at the train station, and now they have all joined our Anti-Japanese Federation."

"Oh my goodness! When they entered the city, there were only about 300 people, two or three hundred people were recruited, and more than 1,000 veterans who had seen blood were recruited, which was more than the total number of our Second Route Army. Zhang Zhongxi said in surprise.
