"Commander, the enthusiasm of my compatriots to join the army is very high! In just three days, we recruited more than 10,000 people in Myitkyina and the surrounding area alone. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info If you count the farther mountainous areas, this number can be doubled. Liu Shiquan smiled.

Most of the Chinese living in the mountainous areas of northern Myanmar are ethnic minorities in southwest China. Although their life is hard, they work or hunt in the mountains for many years, which makes them very physically fit, and they are undoubtedly excellent soldiers. With more than 20,000 soldiers, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army could reorganize into five more infantry regiments. If you add the existing 7 infantry regiments, there will be 12 infantry regiments. In the future, it will be completely sufficient to reorganize into 4 infantry divisions.

"Well, it seems that the Chinese in northern Myanmar have accepted us. That's good news! There are still more than one million Chinese in Myanmar. It's not too much, but it's definitely not too little. If we can get their support and recruit 70,000 or 80,000 people, there will be no problem at all. Qin Shou was also very excited. With the support of these Chinese, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will no longer be rootless and can be effectively replenished.

"But, Commander, we don't have the weapons to equip these troops. When we eliminated the 112th and 46th wings of the little devils, we captured some weapons. But capable of arming at most one regiment. For five regiments, it was a drop in the bucket. ”

Qin Shou nodded, the issue of weapons and equipment is indeed a big problem that plagues the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

"I know, divide those weapons evenly among the five regiments. These five regiments can be trained first. There's no need for them to go to war for the time being. When we get a lot of weapons and equipment from the Americans, we will be able to arm them. When the time comes, we will no longer have to worry about running out of weapons and equipment. Qin Shou put the hope of the armed forces on the Americans.

"That's all there is to it now." Liu Shiquan nodded.

"By the way, did any of the routs of the expeditionary force on the battlefield come to us?" Qin Shou asked.

They did such a big thing on the battlefield in northern Burma. It is impossible for those routs scattered in northern Myanmar not to know. If they can come to join the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, it will make the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army gain more soldiers.

"Yes, yes, but not much yet. Maybe it's because it's too far away. Along the way, you have to worry about being chased and killed by the little devils, and of course there are not many people who can come to Myitkyina safely. ”

"Well, that's the truth. However, we still need to continue to recruit more troops. Whether it is the children of the Chinese or the rout of the expeditionary force, they must be absorbed as much as possible. This time, if Major Steven succeeds, we will be able to get 110,000 men of equipment from the Americans. It would be a waste if there weren't enough people to use those weapons. Qin Shou suddenly has a kind of trouble now, that is, once he hugs the thigh of the American, military equipment will be sent in a steady stream. When the time comes, he'll have to worry that there aren't enough people to use the equipment.

"Yes, Captain." Liu Shiquan nodded. He also knew that after establishing relations with the Americans, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army would enter the fast lane of development.

After the Chinese children joined the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, they were organized into five infantry regiments and began training. The arduous training has let these Chinese children know that it is not so simple to be a soldier. Not only do you have to go into battle to fight with the little devils, but the usual training is also very hard. But even then, no one flinched.

Because of the limited number of weapons, only some people can touch the real guns and gradually rotate them. Everyone else had to use sticks instead, which made many Chinese children eager to have their own weapons.

However, before receiving military assistance from the Americans, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army could not conjure up weapons, so it could only find a way to appease them first.

The other main infantry regiments of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army were also trained even harder. This is especially true of the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th Infantry Regiments. They were equipped with advanced Japanese weapons, and their combat effectiveness had to be enhanced.

Everyone also knows that after the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army defeated Myitkyina, the little devils will definitely not give up. When the time comes, they will face an even more serious crisis. And if you want to survive, there is only one way, and that is to defeat the little devil in battle.

In order to bring out the most powerful combat effectiveness on the battlefield. The officers and men of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army are training hard.

At the same time, the conscription of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army is also continuing. Many Chinese children who were far away from Myitkyina rushed to Myitkyina to join the army. Especially the Gaoligong Mountains in eastern Myitkyina. There are quite a few Chinese people living there. After the Japanese occupation of northern Burma, their lives were also threatened. The rise of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army gave them an opportunity to protect themselves and their families by enlisting in the army. Of course, they won't let go of this opportunity.

The arrival of these Chinese has greatly increased the number of soldiers of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

By June 16, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army had reorganized 15 regiments. Of course, the first 7 regiments are equipped with sufficient weapons, and the last 8 regiments are equipped with only a small number of weapons and are still being trained.

The ranks of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army are expanding day by day, which makes Qin Shou very satisfied. He is also more confident about the future. Once these troops are armed, they will be fully capable of confronting the Japanese army.

"Commander, if we continue like this, it won't be long before we can recruit more than 100,000 people." Liu Shiquan smiled.

"Hmmm! If you have soldiers, you will soon have weapons. When the time comes, we won't have to be afraid of little devils. ”

"That's right, Commander. Recently, more and more soldiers have come to us. Many were broken up in the middle of the battle and fled into the dense forest. After the little devil was defeated by us, he learned about us, and then he came to join us. With the addition of these veterans, those recruits will soon be able to form combat effectiveness. ”

"Only this time, we can defeat the little devil again. And then from the Americans, a large number of weapons were obtained. We will be able to truly gain a foothold in Myanmar. Qin Shou said.

"Yes! Captains. This time, though, we're going to have the toughest battles. Liu Shiquan was a little worried about the next battle.

"That's for sure! Before, we didn't show anything. However, after we eliminated the 112th and 46th Wings of the Japanese army in succession, it was impossible for the little devils not to react at all. Next, we have to face an uphill battle. Qin Shou sighed. He knew that this battle was inevitable.
