The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

"That's right, the little devil is playing dirty with us, let's play him to death!"

The brothers were all beaming with joy. Their action this time successfully shattered the anti-hunting operation of the devils and wiped out the infiltrated devils and puppet troops.

Moreover, it dealt a severe blow to the arrogance of the devil soldiers, boosted the morale of the guerrillas, and made the guerrilla brothers admire Yang Ling even more in their hearts.

Whether in the regular army or in the guerrilla army, for these blood-slashing brothers, they all hope to follow a good officer who can lead them to victory, and Yang Ling has undoubtedly won their approval.

Yang Ling is also in a good mood. Now that the reverse osmosis of the devils in Qinghe town has been smashed and a large number of them have been wiped out, the countryside outside Qinghe town has once again become the world of guerrillas, and the situation they opened up has stabilized.

Faced with such a heavy blow, the devils would definitely be afraid of the guerrillas. Without knowing the strength of the guerrillas, they dared not come out to encircle and suppress them in a short time. This bought time for Yang Ling and the others to develop .

Although Yang Ling and the others eliminated many devils, those who could be sent out to reverse infiltration were elite devils with fierce strength, and the brothers also suffered a lot of casualties in the fight with the little devils.

Regardless of whether it was the injured or the sacrificed brothers, Yang Ling and the others brought all of them back to Xiaowangzhuang.

These casualties are brothers who fought side by side, and none of the brothers who were unscathed can guarantee that they will not be injured or sacrificed in the battle.

So Yang Ling's order not to abandon everyone was approved by the brothers, which made the hearts of the officers and soldiers of the third guerrilla unit more united.

And they will have no worries in future battles, because even if they are injured, there will be brothers to rescue them back, and they will not die in the wilderness if they are sacrificed. This kind of trust will invisibly enhance the combat effectiveness and cohesion of the troops. Yang Ling wanted to achieve the effect.

Yang Ling and his brothers personally found a good place outside Xiaowangzhuang, buried more than 20 brothers who died, and a new grave was added outside the village.

"Brothers, go all the way!"

Yang Ling stood up straight and saluted the sacrificed brothers. The ragged and smelly guerrilla officers and soldiers also had tears in their eyes and raised their hands in salute to see these brothers off. The atmosphere was solemn.

Casualties in war are inevitable, and the brothers have long been accustomed to this. Although there is grief, they have learned to turn grief into strength and fight the little devil with a more high-spirited attitude.

The brothers lurked and fought fiercely with the devils in the mud and wet countryside. Although they eliminated the little devils, they themselves were unkempt and unhuman.

But these guerrilla brothers have lost their greenness and become more calm and sophisticated, gradually transforming like a veteran.

"Everyone go back to take a shower, eat, and continue to fight tomorrow!"

Seeing this group of brothers with knife-like gazes, Yang Ling waved them away.

The brothers are also exhausted. These days, the infiltration troops of the Devil Soldiers have been ambushing everywhere and shooting cold shots, making them nervous all the time.

But now they have completely eliminated these devils hiding in the dark, the danger has been lifted, and the natural people have relaxed.

The villagers in Xiaowangzhuang had already boiled hot water in a large pot. The brothers washed the mud and blood all over their bodies in the hot water vapor, and finally became refreshed again.

The brothers took a bath and fell asleep after eating hot meals, and the villagers in Xiaowangzhuang were also busy quietly, worrying about waking up these brothers who were protecting them.

The brothers were so tired that they went to bed, but Yang Ling didn't care about rest, and summoned all the officers above the company level.

"Huzi, Company Commander Wu, from tomorrow onwards, you will take turns to lead the team out to fight cold shots and carry out sabotage. We must not let the devils have the slightest chance to breathe. We must beat them so that none of their teams dare to come out to patrol, and dare not spend the night in the wild. ..."

"Yes!"

First company commander Wang Huzi and second company commander Wu Changqing both agreed with confidence.

After training in actual combat, they now have the confidence to suppress the devil soldiers and puppet troops in various strongholds and do not dare to show their heads. As long as this continues, the little devils will gradually lose their control over Qinghe Town.

Yang Ling believes that under such a blow from them, the devils will not dare to come out again for a while, and this is also a good time for them to grow and develop

When their third guerrilla detachment was originally stationed in Qinghe Town, it had nearly a thousand people and was very powerful. However, Qinghe Town suffered heavy losses in the First World War and was almost completely wiped out.

Now that he had gained a firm foothold, Yang Ling also wanted to start strengthening the strength of the guerrillas. After all, only when they were strong could they fight against the Japanese and puppet troops better.

"Tomorrow, the banner of our recruitment will be displayed, and people from all villages will be sent there. Anyone who is willing to join our guerrilla team will not be rejected."

In order to strengthen the third guerrilla team, Yang Ling also went all out, preparing to recruit a lot of troops to deal with the devil's next attack.

"Sir, should we first ask the column for instructions when we recruit?"

Zhang Liechen frowned when he heard that Yang Ling wanted to recruit troops wantonly. After all, it was a taboo to expand the army without authorization.

Yang Ling smiled and dispelled Zhang Liechen's doubts: "Our third guerrilla detachment has a staff of 1000 people, but now there are only more than 400 people. Our recruitment is just to fill in the vacancies, so there is no need to worry too much."

"But we are seriously short of guns and ammunition. This sudden recruitment of so many people is not going to fight the devils with fire sticks, right? Besides, our food can't feed so many people..."

Zhang Liechen had also been an acting detachment leader, and he knew that recruiting troops and buying horses was not a child's play, everything had to be considered comprehensively, as an officer, he couldn't act on his will.

Regarding Zhang Liechen's concerns, Yang Ling had already thought about it, and ordered: "Deputy Captain Zhang, as for the lack of guns and ammunition, please go to the column tomorrow and ask them to allocate some money. Anyway, we are also under the jurisdiction of the column. , we can’t just keep relying on seizure.”

Yang Ling said and handed Zhang Liechen the list of supplies and ammunition that he had already made.

Zhang Liechen looked at the list of supplies and ammunition handed over by Yang Ling, and felt bitter in his heart, why did he bother to find this trouble for himself.

"Then I'll give it a try..." But now that Yang Ling had assigned the task to him, he had no choice but to agree.

"Deputy Captain Zhang, don't give it a try. Entrusting such an important task to you is also trust in you. You must take these things back. This is related to the future development of our third guerrilla detachment, brothers. But I count on the real you..."

"Yes! I will do my best!"

Text Chapter 765 Recruitment

The weather is getting colder and colder, and Xiaowangzhuang, which has only a few dozen families, has become noisy because of the stationing of guerrillas. People come and go as lively as New Year's Eve.

Yang Ling also set up the temporary headquarters of his third guerrilla detachment in the Liu family compound in Xiaowangzhuang, and stationed a combat company here.

The guerrilla officers and soldiers led by Yang Ling beat away the landlord Liu Liang, and helped the villagers take back the food that the villagers depended on from the devil soldiers. is very welcome.

What's more, the guerrilla officers and soldiers under Yang Ling's command not only have strict military discipline, but also help the villagers repair houses, chop firewood and carry water in their spare time, which undoubtedly further narrowed the relationship between the army and the people.

With these armed guerrilla officers and soldiers standing guard and constantly patrolling inside and outside the village, even the ruffians did not dare to provoke troubles, and Xiaowangzhuang became orderly, which made the villagers feel at ease.

In such turbulent years, with the protection of such a powerful army, Xiaowangzhuang has returned to a peaceful state.

After intensive preparations, Yang Ling and the others also erected the banner of recruiting soldiers on the grain drying ground.

"Dangdangdang-"

The village head Li Fuchun also followed Yang Ling's instructions and rang the gongs and drums in his hand to mobilize the villagers to join the guerrillas to fight the devils.

"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. Today, the third guerrilla team is recruiting soldiers. I hope everyone will sign up enthusiastically and follow Chief Yang to protect the country and the people to fight the devils..."

The voice of the village chief Li Fuchun spread far away, and the villagers burst into flames when they heard it, discussing it a lot, and those passionate young people were even more excited.

"Mom, I'm going to join the guerrillas to fight devils!"

When a young man heard the news, he put down his hoe and ran to join the army.

After all, now that the country is ruined and the family is ruined, the little devils are domineering on the Chinese land, especially some time ago, they came to grab food, which made the young people in the village feel angry.

But at that time they were unarmed, facing those ferocious ghost soldiers and puppet soldiers with guns, they could only swallow their anger.
