The two soldiers looked at each other and smiled. The previous soldier immediately said happily: "Lang, if you ask to join the army, you can follow us. The car in our company will come back to pick us up later and take a bus to Yingzhou City to sign up for the army."

"Boss, I'll go with you!"

"I'll go too, grandma, I'm so bear, we'll be in the army to fight the Japanese." [..com]

"I'll go too, I'll go too..." Dozens of strong men walked forward and spoke loudly, surrounding the two soldiers.

Immediately, the two soldiers took dozens of strong men to the outside of the village. Before leaving, these strong men bid farewell to their relatives and gave instructions, and then left the village by the elders of the villagers and elders, waiting for the Hu Ben Army's car on the dirt road in the village.

After about half an hour, just when the people and Minzhuang were waiting a little impatiently, several military trucks finally arrived slowly from several villages next to them along the dirt road. However, to everyone's surprise, several military trucks were already full of people.

Many people and the civilians in the car knew each other, and they greeted each other for a moment.

The car door opened with a bang, and a lieutenant platoon leader walked over with great strides. The two war girls quickly stepped forward and stood attentively and saluted: "Plane Commander."

The second lieutenant platoon leader saluted, looked at the hundreds of people behind the two soldiers, and asked subconsciously: "How many people have been recruited?"

"About thirty or forty, platoon leader, can our car hold so many people?" The soldier looked at several military trucks that were already full and asked back.

"Damn it, don't mention it. There are nearly a hundred people in the villages ahead to join the army. I didn't expect that our Hu Ben Army has such a good reputation. When the people heard that we were recruiting soldiers, they all participated enthusiastically." The lieutenant platoon leader said with some depression.

"What should I do?" the warrior asked.

"What else can I do? You are all waiting here. I will pull the batch of cars back first and then find the company commander to get a few more cars over." The second lieutenant platoon leader said angrily, and then turned around and walked towards the truck. He didn't expect that the whole group could recruit so many people. It seems that at least a few trips today will be necessary.

"Yes!" The two soldiers quickly stood up and responded.

After witnessing the officer getting on the car, several trucks drove away. Minzhuang, who was in Xiaowang Village, hurried forward and surrounded the two soldiers and asked, "Boss, why are they leaving?"

"Friends, since there are too many people who want to join our Hu Ben Army, our cars are full. Don't worry, our commander will soon mobilize more cars to pick you up and transport everyone. Please wait patiently..." The two soldiers quickly explained and comforted everyone.

On the wall of the east gate of Yingzhou City.

Chu Jingming was patrolling the city with his adjutant Wang Baoshan and others. Chu Jingming held the wall with both hands and watched the trucks loaded with strong people rumbling into the city one by one. He asked in a good mood: "Baoshan, how many new recruits have been recruited in total today?"

"Reporting to the group, it's not considered in Yingzhou City, there must be three thousand people in any case." Wang Baoshan thought for a while and replied.

"What three thousand people?" Chu Jingming was shocked when he heard this. He had only been recruiting troops for a few days. This was not considered in Yingzhou City. If this continues, his own division has already recruited enough troops.

"Yes." Wang Baoshan nodded and said, "If we add the soldiers recruited by Yingzhou City, the number of new recruits has exceeded 5,000. In addition, our main group only needs to recruit soldiers for another one day, and we can form the Fourth Division."

"I inform all recruiting departments to recruit more than one day, and then stop recruiting for a while." Chu Jingming pondered for a moment and said, "In addition, I will draw a telegram to report to Anbang in a brief manner." It's not that Chu Jingming doesn't want to recruit more soldiers, but many realistic issues need to be considered. If the recruitment of new recruits is too much logistics, military pay and other aspects are under tremendous pressure.

It is already the ultimate scale to expand a division with a main force group as the base, and the training cycle required must be lengthened accordingly. This will make it difficult for the troops to form combat power as soon as possible. If Chu Jingming chose one of the elite divisions and a group of mobs, he would definitely choose the former.

There are many people in the turmoil, and it is not helpful.

As the saying goes, sharpening a knife does not delay the chopping of wood. As long as the fourth division is trained and formed and combat effectiveness is formed, the fourth division can be used as the base to continue to expand its troops. Chu Jingming was deeply influenced by Qiao Anbang.

"Yes!" Wang Baoshan quickly stood up and responded. He followed Chu Jingming's command for many years, and the two of them had already been as close as brothers. Wang Baoshan would not hesitate at all about Chu Jingming's decision.

Huben Army Longshan Military Camp.

Since the division of troops, the originally bustling and crowded military camps are now much quieter than before. Except for the guard regiment and the ** brigade, they also go out for exercises as usual, most of the training grounds are vacant.

Qiao Anbang was walking and patrolling in the military camp accompanied by Liang Jiahan. Today is a rare sunny day. The scorching sun is hanging high in the sky. The less intense sunlight shines on people, which is particularly warm. Occasionally, a gust of spring breeze hits, which makes people feel refreshed.

Following Qiao Anbang, Liang Jiahan seemed to be in a good mood and looked around from time to time.

While the group was walking, a communication soldier hurriedly ran over, and immediately stood attentively to Qiao Anbang and said, "Military seat, call from Yingzhou."

Liang Jiahan quickly reached out to take the message and immediately handed it to Qiao Anbang.

Qiao Anbang took the message and opened it and read it at a glance. He smiled heartily and said, "Yes, my brother is recruiting troops in Yingzhou very smoothly. It seems that other divisions should follow the example."

"Military throne, do the troops still need to be expanded?" Wang Gensheng, the commander of the guard regiment who had been standing behind him, asked.

"Well, our troops are still too small now, we must at least double the expansion!" Qiao Anbang nodded thoughtfully.

Wang Gensheng and others looked stern and were secretly shocked when they heard this. If they doubled their army, the Hu Ben Army would have an army of 100,000. Be good, the scale would almost catch up with an army group.

Qiao Anbang pondered for a moment, and suddenly said to Wang Gensheng: "Gensheng, I plan to form another teacher and want you to be this teacher. How about it?"

Wang Gensheng was shocked when he heard this, and then shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I understand how much I have. I can't be competent for this division commander, so I'll just be the commander of the guard for the military commander."

"You bastard, I will give you a division commander, you don't want to be the commander of the guard. Don't you know how many people want to rush to go to this position?" Qiao Anbang knew that Wang Gensheng didn't want to leave him to command the troops alone. After all, the two of them have been playing since childhood. Wang Gensheng's feelings for Qiao Anbang are the same as those of his elder brother.

"Hehe, Gensheng doesn't care about those things, just follow the military throne!" Wang Gensheng said with a silly smile.

Qiao Anbang thought for a while and said, "Okay, then I'll consider others." Qiao Anbang was relieved to have Wang Gensheng as his guard commander. If it were someone else, would it be possible that something would happen? The position of commander of the guard regiment must be held by his absolute confidant.

"Master, I recommend someone to you." Wang Gensheng suddenly said.

"Who?" Qiao Anbang asked back.

"My deputy commander, Jiang Jun." Wang Gensheng replied immediately. "He?" Qiao Anbang frowned when he heard this. Jiang Jun was a professional soldier and had more combat experience than Wang Gensheng. After thinking about it, no one seemed to be more suitable in the battle sequence of the Hu Ben Army than him.

"I'll consider this matter!" Qiao Anbang said, and took the lead to continue walking forward. Liang Jiahan, Wang Gensheng and others hurriedly followed.

Xuzhou, on the road leading to zhiheji.

A military jeep was winding along the road, and there were two young men in extraordinary clothes on the back seat. They were in a better mood while sitting inside the car without looking around the outside of the car.

"Brother Hao Yao, this northern Anhui is really good. It is a wide river, and it is really suitable for large-scale mechanized troops and armored assault troops to fight." Zhang Yi, who was sitting on the left, looked around and looked around.

"Yes, Brother Ling Yun doesn't have to worry that you have nowhere to play your strengths. The Hu Ben Army now has tens of thousands of troops, and its armored troops are even larger and the largest in the country!" Liang Haoyao nodded with a smile.

The two of them are Liang Haoyao and Zhang Yi, a Chinese overseas Chinese who returned from Germany. Because China and Germany are far apart, they have worked hard to come to China. At that time, the Battle of Xuzhou had just begun and the East China region could fall at all times. So they stayed in the rear for a while until the victory of the Xuzhou Battle ended, and the two Japanese strategic groups retreated one after another, and they set off again.

When they passed by the defense zone of Sun Lianzhong in Xuzhou, they met Chi Fengcheng, the commander of the 31st Division. They heard that they were back from Germany, so Chi Fengcheng intended to take in the two of them. However, when they learned that they were planning to go to join the Hu Ben Army, Chi Fengcheng was disappointed and personally sent Adjutant Li Dongming and a military vehicle to send the two to the base of Zhiheji Hu Ben Army.

After all, Qiao Anbang's Hu Ben Army was kind to the entire Second Army, especially the 31st Division in Chifeng City. Without the assistance of the Hu Ben Army, the entire army was wiped out as early as the Battle of Taierzhuang.

Along the way, Liang Haoyao and Zhang Yi also heard about the performance and recent situation of the Hu Ben Army in the Battle of Xuzhou. They learned that the Hu Ben Brigade had expanded into a main force in just a few months, and the two were even more eager to join the Hu Ben Army.

While the two were talking, Li Dongming, who was sitting in the front row, suddenly turned around and said, "Two, you are going to the Hu Ben Army's defense zone in front. We can only send you to Xiangcheng, so they will naturally take you to the zhiheji."

"Well, thank you, Chief Li." Liang Haoyao nodded solemnly.
