Just when Ouyang Yun was thinking, Ma Kaishan had already started shooting. Different from the ordinary cavalry with one hand to hold the gun, he actually held the gun with both hands, and the whole person relied on the horse's belly between his feet, and his buttocks seemed to be glued to the saddle, in Ouyang Yun's sight, Ma Kaishan raised the gun with both hands, and the gun rang out, "Bah", followed by a bang, and the wine bottle thrown into the air by Xiao Liuzi exploded. The wine bottles flew out of the trench one after another, and Ma Kaishan's mount rushed forward without hesitation, and his gun was never put down, and in the continuous gunfire of "Bah, Woo......" The wine bottles exploded one after another, and none of them escaped the net.

"Good!" Ouyang Yun took the lead in shouting, clapping vigorously with both hands. He is also a master of playing with guns, but he thinks that he has not yet reached the height of Ma Kaishan, and shooting moving targets on horseback in high-speed movement cannot do it anyway without a certain talent.

Stern applauded reservedly, and when Ma Kaishan took the reins and turned around, he whispered: "The commander of the horse battalion said himself, give him another three months, and his cavalry battalion can match the little devil and a cavalry brigade." ”

Ouyang Yun nodded and said, "I believe him." Untied his pistol from his body, he learned a pistol called "Qi Xian" newly developed by the Arsenal, threw it to Ma Kaishan and said: "Good job, this is a reward for you!" ”

Ma Kaishan is naturally a person who loves guns, and his mouth immediately opened open, and he said happily: "Xie Lu Xie Junza!" He saluted, dismounted, handed the horse to Xiao Liuzi, who ran back after him, and stood beside Ouyang Yun and them.

Among the units of the Jewish Independent Brigade, Ouyang Yun was the least involved. Now, having seen with his own eyes the glorious military posture, he has a new plan for the use of this army. After Ma Kaishan's performance, he asked Stern to call all the company-level officers together, and held a pre-war mobilization meeting in the open space next to the training ground.

Everyone sat on the ground, Ouyang Yun slowly glanced at everyone, and asked: "The Japanese Army is known as the second strongest army in the world, comrades, we are about to start a war with them, are you afraid?" ”

"Don't be afraid!" “NO！” ……

Only a handful of officers above the rank of company commander of the Independent Brigade were Han Chinese, and most of them were Jews. The crowd replied without hesitation.

"I'm afraid!" Ouyang Yun then said something that made everyone feel incomprehensible, and Stern's brows furrowed even more, I don't know why Lu Dao Junzuo wanted to say such a frustrating thing at this time - didn't he know that Lu Dao was a serious blow to morale like this?

Ouyang Yun's next words dispelled this thought: "The Japanese are fighting on our territory, and they can use any tactics without any scruples. We are different from them, and the reason why we have to resolutely resist the aggression of the little devils is precisely to defend our country and our people. If we are defeated, our people will be reduced to slaves, and our country, our relatives, and our children may never see the light of day again - I am afraid, but the more I am afraid, the more I must strengthen my determination to resist aggression. He looked at Stern, stared at him tightly, and said, "Stern, do you know why you Jews have been unpopular with other countries?" ”

Stern stood up, the muscles on his face beating, what Ouyang Yun said was the biggest heart disease of their Jews, every time he thought about it, he would feel unwilling. For his part, he truly regarded Germany as his homeland, but Germany expelled them simply because he was a Jew.

Ouyang Yun didn't need him to answer, he gave the answer next: "Because most of you Jews are not used to treating the country you are in really as your motherland. Will you give up everything for her, will you protect her like your own mother? If you can't, how can you expect the country to accept you as if it were its own children? ”

Stern put his feet together, saluted the military salute vigorously, and said loudly: "Commander, you are telling the truth. Again, you're talking about the past. You, including the people of Renqiu, should have seen that we now regard Renqiu as our homeland and China as our own country. As you say, we will protect her as if we were our own mothers, at the cost of our own sacrifices. When he had finished speaking, he looked at the other Jewish officers, who stood up in unison, stood tall with their chests held high, and swore in a loud voice: "We, the Jews of Renqiu, the Jews of China, will defend our country as if we were our own mothers—this is the oath of all Chinese Jews!" ”

Immediately afterwards, the Han officers also stood up, and no one wanted to unify the slogan, and swore in unison under the leadership of Stern: "We, on behalf of all the officers and soldiers of the Jewish Independent Brigade, swear here that we will defend our country and protect our people with our flesh and blood, not afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice!" ”

Ouyang Yun stood up after him, although the purpose of his trip was to boost the morale of the Independent Brigade, but the scene that happened in front of him was still beyond his expectations, if he didn't know Stern's character, he would almost have suspected that this was something that Stern had already rehearsed. He solemnly replied with a military salute and said loudly: "Good! I am so proud of you for your determination! Well, I'm waiting for news of your victory. Brigadier Stern Commander, your specific combat mission staff has been issued, and how much you can achieve in the next battle depends on your own performance. I just want to emphasize one point, no matter how much sacrifice you make, please be sure to complete the set combat mission! In this battle, either the Japanese North China Front was completely defeated, or our student army disappeared from the stage of history. You, me, every member of the Cadet Army, there is no way back in this battle! The Cadet Army will win! ”

"The student army will win!"

At first, it was just a handful of dozens of people in this small place chanting in unison. Their voices reached the ears of the officers and soldiers of the Independent Brigade who were training, and everyone stopped in unison, followed by a thunderous roar: "The Cadet Army will win!" "The Cadet Army will win!" ……

"Stern! The Japanese have not yet been expelled, and comrades still need to work hard! I will hand over the more than 5,000 officers and men of the Independent Brigade to you. Finally, Ouyang Yun told Stern. Before getting into the car, he looked intently at the vast number of officers and men of the Independent Brigade who had been engaged in training again, and with a wave of his right hand, he resolutely sat in the car—if there was no miracle, he knew that most of the faces here would never be seen again. The difference in strength between the Cadet Army and the Japanese Army is still too big!
