Anti-Japanese War: You drove me away, and now you want me to rescue you?

A few days passed quickly.

The people who went to various places to recruit also came back one after another.

Sure enough.

Just as Lu Zhixian expected.

In the current resource-scarce China, what is least lacking is passionate patriots.

It only took a few days.

Heiyun Village directly recruited as many as 700 to 800 people, and this is the number after screening. If all were recruited, it would be even more.

Looking at these slightly unfamiliar and nervous faces in front of them, many backbones of the regiment present were excited.

"Captain!"

Yang Zhihua spoke first: "Our artillery battalion is short of manpower now, and it is not easy to find good gunners. We have to pick those here first!"

Sun Desheng on the other side said eagerly: "It is also not easy to become a cavalryman. The soldiers of our cavalry battalion must also be selected first!"

Your artillery and cavalry are precious?

Then our infantry don't need good seedlings?

Chen Feng and others beside him were all complaining about this, and soon they started to clamor for the best selection.

"Quiet!"

Lu Zhixian was not going to tolerate them. His loyal eyes quickly swept over all the recruits. After confirming that there were no Japanese spies, he said loudly: "Don't worry, all the recruits will be selected by Lei Zhan. At that time, they will be enrolled according to their talents. No one needs to worry!"

The crowd was slightly relieved.

"Humph!"

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Lu Zhixian said solemnly: "I have to say this in advance. When the personnel are given to you, if the battalions cannot train their own combat effectiveness, don't blame me for turning my face against you!"

"Yes, commander!"

Many battalion-level cadres accepted the order in unison.

...

Taiyuan.

Japanese headquarters.

Shinozuka Yoshio's life has been extremely difficult recently.

The clearing operation that he had placed high hopes on ended in failure. Not only did the Empire suffer heavy losses, but even the elite Sakata Regiment was wiped out.

This was an unprecedented blow to the situation in Shanxi Province.

Of course, if that was all, his pressure would not be so great. What's more important is that all the observation groups in Huting were killed!

You have to know that there were dozens of senior officers of the Empire!

These were drawn from various departments of the North China Expeditionary Force, and almost represented most of the command system of the entire North China Expeditionary Force.

Now they all died in his own hands.

How could he bear this?

When the news was reported, he was severely reprimanded by the General Staff Headquarters as the commander. If it weren't for his many military achievements over the years and the intercession of many classmates and friends, he would probably have been removed from the position of commander in Shanxi Province. But even so, he still endured great pressure and criticism.

"Baka!"

Thinking back to the recent bad things, Shinozuka Yoshio couldn't help but curse.

Nanshan Hideyoshi naturally understood the other party's thoughts, and at this time he comforted: "General! This incident was an accident after all. No one expected that the 358th Regiment would have such a strong strength. You don't have to blame yourself too much!"

"How can I be willing to not take revenge?"

Shinozuka Yoshio looked at the map with a sullen face.

"Report!"

Just then someone came outside.

"Come in."

"General!"

The staff officer walked in quickly and said seriously: "The person you asked for from the General Staff Headquarters has arrived and is now outside."

"Great!"

Shinozuka Yoshio looked overjoyed.

Nanshan Hideyoshi's eyes flickered slightly, and he said: "General! Could it be what you mentioned at the beginning-"

"That's right!"

Shinozuka Yoshio nodded and said: "Let's go! Let's go meet our imperial talent together!"

...

Very soon

A certain meeting room.

Shinozuka Yoshio saw the person he had been thinking about.

No.

To be precise.

There were two people who came this time.

They were both young, one was about 30 years old, and the other was in his twenties. They were both wearing military uniforms, and they were all handsome and sharp-looking. It was obvious that they were not ordinary people.

"Report to the general!"

The older man quickly saluted and said loudly: "Yamamoto Ikki is here to report to you with the special forces under the order of the General Staff!"

"Yoshi!"

Shinozuka Yoshio returned the salute and said with a smile on his face: "Yamamoto-kun! I have finally waited for you to come!"

"It is Yamamoto's honor to be under the command of the general today!"

Yamamoto Ikki, who has always been arrogant, did not dare to be arrogant in front of this person.

"Who is this?"

Shinozuka Yoshio's eyes swept to the side.

Yamamoto Ikki immediately introduced: "General! This is the emperor"Report to the General!" Takeshita Shun also saluted quickly and said loudly: "Lieutenant Colonel Takeshita Shun is here to report to you!" Shinozuka Yoshio was surprised: "I didn't expect that Takeshita-kun is already a lieutenant colonel at such a young age. It seems that Yamamoto-kun is right!" "General!" Yamamoto Ikki said again: "Takeshita-kun graduated from my Imperial Army Non-commissioned Officer School and then studied at the Kyoto Military Academy of D Country. He also has amazing talent in special operations. As early as two years ago when my Imperial Army broke through the Kyoto of China, he led the special operations team to break through the city gate first. I heard that the general was interested in recruiting special operations talents, so I took the liberty to invite Takeshita-kun and his special operations team to come together." "Soga!" Shinozuka Yoshio's eyes lit up and said: "With the help of the two of you this time, my Empire's anti-bandit operation in Jin Province will surely usher in a huge victory! "

Both sides are vigorous and resolute.

No hesitation.

They quickly communicated about the current situation.

Yamamoto Ikki has a cold personality and is ruthless. He has no interest in frontal combat, but is only interested in special operations. At this time, he stood quietly on the side and listened. Although Takeshita Shun is also an expert in special operations, he has a very high level of military attainments and has his own understanding of the current situation. He occasionally speaks a few words.

Not long after.

Shinozuka Yoshio said solemnly: "This is the current situation. The Eighth Route Army specializes in destroying the transportation and supply lines of our empire, but when we launched a cleanup, they mainly used guerrilla warfare, and it was difficult to completely wipe them out. Although the Shanxi Suiyuan Army was almost defeated by the army of our empire before, it seems to be ready to move again recently, especially the 358th Regiment dealt a heavy blow to our empire before!" At the end, his tone was full of anger.

"General! "

After hearing the details, Yamamoto Ikki joked, "I had heard about the previous battle on the way, but I didn't expect that the so-called 358th Regiment was so arrogant! But please rest assured, General - since Takeshita and I have come here this time, we will bring Chu Yunfei's head to comfort the soul of the imperial warrior in heaven later!"

"Yoshi!"

Shinozuka Yoshio was immediately excited when he heard this: "Then I look forward to your performance!"
