Most of these supplementary soldiers were sent over after a short period of one or two weeks of training. Many of them had only fired one or two bullets, and they could only shoot, with little combat effectiveness.

Even so, these newly added soldiers were quickly divided up by the regiments, and now the commanders of the various troops don't care about picking and choosing, as long as they are people.

Because Yang Ling's regiment arrived in De'an a few days later than the rest of the troops, when the regiment leader Zhang Handuo went to the brigade headquarters to ask for recruits, he didn't get any of them because they had already been divided up.

"Brigade, our regiment killed more than 500 people and seriously injured more than 100 people on the Lanfeng battlefield. We have also made collective contributions. If there are no recruits to supplement this battle, we will not be able to fight this battle. You can give us some points. "

The head of the regiment Zhang Handuo was complaining in the brigade headquarters, and the brigade commander Zhou Zhidao also shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands and said: "You asked me for it, but I didn't have it. There are so many soldiers added to the theater, and we divided 2 troops into one regiment." There are many people, our 74th Army managed to snatch some of them, so it will be over before you come."

Seeing the regimental commander Zhang Handuo's bitter face, not ready to leave, the brigade commander Zhou Zhidao softened his expression again: "How about you wait a few more days, and when new recruits come over, how about I give priority to replenishing your regiment? "

The troops suffered heavy losses, and without recruits, they would not be able to improve their combat effectiveness. The battle would start again at some point, and the regiment leader Zhang Handuo was naturally unwilling to let go. Without recruits, he had no intention of leaving.

Looking at the head of the regiment Zhang Handuo who refused to leave, the brigade commander Zhou Zhidao also knew that going on like this was not an option, so he had no choice but to recruit the chief of military supplies and allocated more than 1000 silver dollars to let them find a way to replenish some people first.

"It counts as much as you can recruit, but the recruited people must register, and I will report to the military seat when the time comes."

The brigade commander Zhou Zhidao did not forget to remind Zhang Handuo at the end, after all, they are combat troops, and it is a taboo to recruit troops without authorization.

However, the losses of various armies and units are relatively large now, and there are not a few people who replenish their own troops, and they only need to report according to the regulations.

Although Zhang Handuo was extremely reluctant, but due to helplessness, he did not receive recruits, so he could only raise a flag to recruit soldiers with more than 1000 silver dollars.

The flag for recruiting soldiers was raised up, and it was the main force of the Central Army. There were quite a few people onlookers, but very few signed up.

It's no wonder that these ordinary people are not patriotic. Serving as a soldier in a war is fatal. Although the army is paid for the army, it has to be paid for.

The National Revolutionary Army has fought countless defeats on the battlefield, and every time there are corpses strewn across the field, the former soldiers in the village have never returned. In addition, the government has sacrificed countless people's interests for strategic considerations, and its credibility has been lost. People are willing to be soldiers.

The recruiting banner in the regiment stood up all day, but only less than [-] people were recruited. Zhang Handuo, the head of the regiment, was so angry that he scolded his mother: "You are a motherfucker, Lu Xing, take people to the town to arrest people, According to the method of drawing dogs in wartime, three dogs draw one, five dogs draw two, and those who don't obey must be tied up!"

"Wait a minute."

Zhang Handuo wanted to do something reckless, the first battalion commander Lu Xing didn't even think about it, he turned around and went to the town to catch soldiers, Yang Ling hurriedly stopped him.

"Tuan Zuo, leave the task of recruiting troops to me."

Just when the head of the regiment, Zhang Handuo, was frowning and ready to act recklessly about recruiting troops, Yang Ling stepped forward in time to ask for Ying.

The troops lost a lot on the Lanfeng battlefield. If they don't get a replacement now, they will only stare blankly once the war starts again.

"Brother Yang, this recruiting is not like fighting a war. We can't afford to delay it. I think it's better to recruit directly."

The head of the regiment, Zhang Handuo, was eager to recruit enough soldiers to start training as soon as possible, and he didn't have much confidence in Yang Ling's ability to recruit soldiers smoothly.

"Tuan Zuo, as the saying goes, twisted melons are not sweet. If we go to the town to force conscription, I'm afraid it will backfire. This matter is of great importance. If Tuan Zuo believes me, I promise to recruit enough soldiers."

Zhang Handuo, the head of the regiment, never understood this truth, but now that the army is seriously short of personnel, he has no choice but to plan to recruit soldiers. If he can't recruit soldiers as soon as possible to start training, then there will be no battles in the future.

The chief of staff of the regiment was exhausted from running around but couldn't recruit soldiers. He wished that Yang Ling would take over this hot potato, so he hurriedly said, "Sir, why don't you let Deputy Chief Yang try."

Thinking of Yang Ling's always thoughtful appearance and his confident appearance at the moment, Zhang Handuo lowered his head and thought for a while, then decided to let Yang Ling try.

"That's okay, brother Yang, just go and try it out. I'll give you two days. If we can't recruit enough people to replenish the army, we can only go to the town to forcibly recruit troops."

Seeing that Zhang Handuo agreed, Yang Ling also breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Zhang Handuo would go to the town to forcibly recruit soldiers. After all, even if the kidnapped people got enough heads, they would be greatly reduced in battle, and the combat effectiveness of the troops would not increase. , all in vain.

Wang Huzi and the others were full of doubts when Yang Ling took the job of recruiting soldiers. Recruiting soldiers is easy to say, but difficult to do.

"Deputy regiment, why are we wading through this muddy water? It's a forced recruitment. As long as those strong men join the army, I can still train them to be obedient and howl when they start fighting."

Yang Ling shook his head and said: "You don't understand this. What you need in this war is unity of heart. When you go to the battlefield, you must have the awareness to block bullets for your brothers. You can manage those who are captured by force. Tie, if there is a real war, can you guarantee that they won't run away? Won't you shoot you in the back?"

Captain Wang Huzi patted his head and muttered, "That's true..."

"Okay, take a platoon of brothers with me, and we'll recruit troops." Yang Ling instructed Wang Huzi.

Wang Huzi asked curiously: "Regiment deputy, where should we go to recruit troops?"

"You'll know when you get to the ground." Yang Ling smiled, deliberately showing off.

Full of doubts, Wang Huzi followed Yang Ling with a row of brothers and soon arrived at a field hospital on the outskirts of De'an.

This field hospital was hidden in the woods on the outskirts of the city, where thousands of wounded soldiers were wounded on the battlefield. From a distance, one could smell the smell of blood mixed with medicine. The weather was stuffy and the smell was really unpleasant.

"Regimental Vice, let's recruit troops, what are we doing here in this field hospital?" Wang Huzi was even more puzzled now.

Yang Ling didn't explain, and strode towards the hospital. His target this time was the wounded soldiers in the field hospital, and he planned to detain them all and add them to his regiment.

Compared to recruiting new recruits from the town, these recovered soldiers are much better. Most of them have combat experience on the battlefield, and there are many veterans.

As long as they are added to the company for a little restorative training, their combat effectiveness will explode again. In Yang Ling's eyes, these injured veterans are treasures that are hard to replace.

Yang Ling met the director of the field hospital in a dilapidated tent, a skinny middle-aged man. He didn't beat around the bush, and directly explained his reason for coming.

"Deputy Commander Yang, these wounded soldiers will return to their respective units according to regulations. If you want to add them to your unit, I can't decide this matter. Please go back."

The director of the hospital flatly rejected Yang Ling's request, so Yang Ling had to take out the warrant stamped by brigade commander Zhou Zhidao, but it still didn't work.

"Deputy Commander Yang, the wounded and wounded will automatically return to the original unit and return to the army. That's the rule above. Not to mention your brigade commander, even your army commander has no right to forcibly detain them."

Seeing Yang Ling's reluctance, the director of the hospital seemed a little impatient, and issued an order to expel Yang Ling and the others.

"Guards, please get them out!"

Yang Ling didn't expect to hit a nail when he arrived, and was invited out of the tent by the director of the hospital, which made him feel a little frustrated.

The captain and company commander, Wang Huzi, was also full of anger and displeasure. When did they suffer from such uselessness?

"Lieutenant, let's go back. It's not worth it for a few wounded soldiers to be so useless. Where can we not recruit people? Why should we look at his face?"

Yang Ling himself was a little annoyed that he had oversimplified the matter, and was thinking about how to bypass the dean's hurdle and get the wounded veteran back when suddenly a familiar figure came into view from afar.

After more than a year, Zhang Hongying has successfully transformed from an experienced battlefield medical soldier into a field military doctor after intensive training in Wuhan.

Life in the hospital is boring and tedious. We face bloody wounded soldiers every day, from simple debridement and bandaging at the beginning to simple surgery at the end.

In the military field hospital where there is a shortage of doctors, Zhang Hongying grew up rapidly, and now she has become a female military doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded.

She had just finished an amputation operation, and the snow-white coat she wore was still stained with blood. Because of the lack of medicines, many wounded soldiers had to have their limbs amputated because their wounds became infected.

Zhang Hongying was exhausted and was about to go back to rest for a while, when she suddenly heard someone calling her name, she turned around subconsciously.

When she turned around, she happened to see Yang Ling standing not far away, with that tall and straight body, a familiar face that had appeared in dreams countless times.

All kinds of emotions flooded into her heart like a tide, and Zhang Hongying wept with joy. While wiping the tears rolling down her eyes, she trotted into Yang Ling's arms.
