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

With the support of the guerrillas, women's committees, patrolling militias and other organizations were established in various villages in the area of ​​the third guerrilla detachment to restore order.

Due to the corruption of the previous war, a large number of officials fled, and the devils had limited forces and could only care about the towns. Many rural areas in northern Jiangsu have become anarchic, so that bandits are rampant and the people are in dire straits.

But now Yang Ling and the others quickly restored the order in these rural areas, cracked down on bullies and bandits, suppressed the traitor plainclothes team, and ended the previous state of chaos.

With the successive establishment of village militias, the guerrilla officers and soldiers who were originally stationed in the villages to maintain order gradually retreated to the area around Xiaowangzhuang for intensive training to improve their combat effectiveness.

The recruits from the six companies recruited by Yang Ling's third guerrilla detachment had already looked like soldiers after the initial intensive training.

In order to quickly improve the combat effectiveness, Yang Ling asked the recruits to be mixed into two main companies in batches, and led them to a place near Qinghe Town to practice cold guns with veterans as the backbone.

Due to the good logistics support, the recruits are very enthusiastic about fighting. Although they missed frequently at the beginning, Yang Ling believes that after training, they will gradually grow up.

When Yang Ling paid attention to the training of recruits, some elites were selected from the veterans who were preparing for the backbone and began to form a special force.

"Sir, what is a special force?"

At the regular military meeting of the guerrilla detachment, Yang Ling just proposed to form a special force, and everyone was puzzled, after all, they had never been exposed to this concept before.

Facing everyone's confused eyes, Yang Ling was not in a hurry, but patiently explained to them.

Yang Ling gave an example: "You know the special agent battalions and special agent companies directly under our armies and armies?"

"I know, they are all very powerful." When Yang Ling said this, they all suddenly realized.

After all, in the Chinese army, these spy companies and battalions are all elites selected from the whole regiment and army, and to a large extent they also shoulder special combat missions.

"The special operations team we want to form is similar to the special service battalion. It is mainly formed to perform special tasks, but there are also differences."

Staff officer Lei Xiong asked curiously, "What's the difference?"

Yang Ling explained: "Those special forces directly under the regiment headquarters and the military headquarters are mainly responsible for defending the chief and blocking the enemy at critical moments. There are many staff members, and the selection is not very strict."

"But the special forces I'm talking about perform more difficult tasks, such as going deep into enemy camps to perform beheading tasks, going deep into enemy-occupied areas to spy on military conditions, and rescuing hostages under heavy siege by the enemy..."

After Yang Ling finished speaking, everyone gasped. These tasks were really beyond the capabilities of ordinary troops, and almost all of them were close to death.

"This is almost no different from the Death Squad." Deputy company commander Zheng Gang said.

Yang Ling nodded: "It is precisely because the missions performed are extremely dangerous, so the special forces must be the best of the best."

Company Commander Wu Changqing asked: "Sir, do you know what conditions are required to join the Special Forces?"

Yang Ling looked around at the people who were looking at him, and said slowly, "First, absolute loyalty, and no enemy agents can be allowed to sneak in."

"And what else?"

"Besides that, you need quick reflexes, outstanding marksmanship, firm will, hard work..."

Yang Ling said a lot of conditions in one breath, and everyone was dumbfounded. According to such conditions, the entire third guerrilla detachment might not be able to choose a few.

"Sir, isn't this condition too harsh?"

Although Sun Zhong, the director of military supplies, had never led troops to fight, as the saying goes, he had never eaten pork and seen pigs running. He had never seen such strict selection conditions.

Seeing that everyone was frightened, Yang Ling softened his tone: "Of course, it's not impossible to relax the conditions. Outstanding abilities in a certain area can also be admitted exceptionally, such as marksmen who can speak Japanese and have outstanding marksmanship."

Although Yang Ling relaxed the conditions, everyone still absolutely wanted to join this so-called special forces team. It might be more difficult than reaching the sky.

"Of course, because the special forces perform extremely difficult and dangerous tasks, every member of the special forces will be promoted to second lieutenant, and the monthly salary is five times that of ordinary soldiers."

Yang Ling offered a very generous salary. As long as he successfully joined the special forces, it was equivalent to turning a crow into a phoenix. Ordinary soldiers could also become officers at the rank of second lieutenant.

After hearing the treatment given by Yang Ling, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. This treatment is too good.

Many brothers may not be able to reach the rank of captain after fighting for a lifetime, but now Yang Ling has created a shortcut for them to be promoted.

"Do you have any objections to this?" Seeing that everyone was silent, Yang Ling knocked on the table and asked.

Everyone can have any objections, now Yang Ling has established absolute authority in the third guerrilla detachment.

Besides, the vice-captain Zhang Liechen hadn't come back from the column yet, so he kept his word, even if he objected, it was useless, they all shook their heads one after another.

"Since you have no objections, let's inform you that tomorrow we will begin the selection of special forces members in our third guerrilla detachment. Anyone who is willing can sign up."

Staff officer Lei Xiong asked weakly: "Mr. Yang, can recruits also participate?"

Yang Ling nodded: "It doesn't matter if you're a veteran or a new soldier, you can participate too."

Hearing this, Wu Changqing and the others became excited. Ordinary special forces members have the rank of second lieutenant, so the special forces captain must be at the school level.

Although Wu Changqing and the others are the company commanders of the main force company, they are lieutenant-level officers. If they can enter the special forces team, their ranks will probably have to be promoted. They are very enthusiastic and eager to try.

Soon, the news about the formation of the special forces spread in the third guerrilla detachment. Hearing such a generous treatment, he was immediately blown away.

Both veterans and recruits are gearing up for a big fight. After all, passing the competition can be promoted to second lieutenant, and the salary is five times that of ordinary soldiers, which is too tempting.

But when they saw the harsh conditions of the selection, they were all dumbfounded. Isn't this just to tease them?

No matter what the soldiers thought, the selection of Yang Ling's special forces team had begun, and Yang Ling personally attended the selection, making everyone realize that Yang Ling was not joking.

Those recruits who were not capable were uneasy, while the capable veterans were full of confidence. Faced with generous treatment, almost all officers and soldiers signed up for the primary election.

Text Chapter 791 Inducing Surrender

While Yang Ling was busy selecting members of the Special Forces, Han Feihu, the captain of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Team, locked himself in the room and drank alcohol.

Han Feihu wanted to go to the populous Zhangjiaji to get some money and food for the winter, but he bumped into Yang Ling's muzzle.

Not only did he not get the money and food, but he was hit with ashes. More than 20 brothers under his command were shot dead by Yang Ling.

The most important thing is that he lost his face, went aggressively, and returned to Xinzhuang disheartened. His prestige as the captain had been discredited, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

But he could only endure his anger, and he secretly inquired. The third guerrilla detachment not only had a lot of machine guns.

Moreover, there are many grenades, [-] big cover rifles, and the recent recruitment and expansion of the army can be said to be strong and strong. He dared to fight the attention of the guerrilla detachment.

Now Han Feihu is worried. Although he is under the command of the Ninth Guerrilla Column, there is a shortage of supplies in the enemy's rear. He sent people to the headquarters to ask for food and ammunition several times, but all of them came to nothing.

But the hundreds of people under his command wanted to eat, and they all counted on him, the captain, to find a way.

In the past, he could go to the surrounding villages to find big households to extort some money and food, but now every village has formed a militia to stand guard, backed by guerrillas, so he dare not.

Except for the guerrilla zone of the third guerrilla detachment, he didn't dare to go to the territory of the little devil. As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

Don't look at the little devils being beaten into a coward by the guerrillas. I'm afraid their Anti-Japanese National Salvation Brigade dared to go to the devil's territory to grab food. , Who told them to have a machine gun?

Originally, they could also rely on the people of Xinzhuang to tide over the difficulties temporarily, but because of their lax military discipline, they often ate and drank for free, and harassed the people, so that the people of Xinzhuang had long since fled, and now only their anti-Japanese and national salvation brigade was left nest here.
