Cross the Songhu battlefield and rise to become the most powerful warlord

13 Take A Group of Veterans

But such a powerful soldier obeyed Ye Qingshan's orders, and even had admiration in his eyes.

This is definitely not an act.

"Did you really seize the equipment of an entire squadron of the Japanese?"

“Yes, but I didn’t bring it.

You know why.”

Ye Qingshan smiled mysteriously.

The old soldier understood immediately: "The commander is a smart man. If you bring it here, you probably won't be able to take it away."

“The equipment is outside, in the hands of my people.

If you don’t believe it, you can come with me and see for yourself.

If you are willing to join me in fighting the Japanese, each of you can have a Type 38 rifle by then.

There are also canned beef like this, which can be eaten open."

As he said that, Ye Qingshan asked the soldiers behind him to distribute the batch of canned beef they brought to Zhou Pingkou and the old soldier.

"Oh my god, this is the devil's canned beef."

The old soldier took a can and picked it up curiously.

"Are you gathering the defeated soldiers to return to the front lines to fight the Japanese?"

Zhou Pingkou looked at Ye Qingshan and asked.

“It’s to fight the devils.

But I promise that I won’t let you be cannon fodder.

I will act with you.”

Ye Qingshan understood that Zhou Pingkou was worried about Ye Qingshan and wanted to use his surviving brothers as cannon fodder.

They had managed to save their lives on the battlefield, and they didn't want to hand them over to others in a confused manner.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

After a moment, Zhou Pingkou said.

"Company commander."

The old soldier behind became anxious again.

"Brother Zheng, I have made up my mind.

My intuition told me that Officer Ye did not lie to me.

I joined the army just to fight the Japanese.

But this is just my personal decision. If you don’t want to leave, you can stay.

Brother Zheng has saved my life many times, and I, Zhou Pingkou, will never forget this kindness.

If I defeat the Japanese, I can still survive.

I will definitely go find you, Brother Zheng, to repay you for saving my life."

Zhou Pingkou spoke seriously to the veteran.

"Commander Ye, I will follow you from now on."

Zhou Pingkou walked up to Ye Qingshan and said with a smile.

"Haha, let's go then."

Ye Qingshan said with a smile.

"Hey, wait."

Just as Ye Qingshan and others turned around to leave, the old soldier behind them couldn't help but shout.

"Forget it, forget it, go fight the Japs and leave me behind.

Do you really think I'm a coward?

I am one of you, too."

The old soldier also picked up his Hanyang rifle and limped along.

It was at this time that Ye Qingshan discovered that the old soldier named Zheng was actually a cripple.

But Ye Qingshan did not dislike the other party.

"Zhou boy, don't even think about getting rid of me.

I want to wait until we defeat the Japanese and then take you back to see my sister.

I have decided on you as my brother-in-law."

When Zhou Pingkou heard the old soldier say this, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Hey, Lao Zhang, the one-eyed, deaf man.

What are you waiting for? Come out.

Are you willing to separate from me?

We agreed before that we would die together in this life.

Now, I am going to fight the Japanese with the company commander, and you guys are not following me.

If I die, who will collect my body? "

The veteran named Zheng turned around and shouted loudly to the other veterans.

"You stupid cripple, did your head get kicked by a donkey?

I just saved my life from the Japanese, but now I’m in a hurry to die.

If you want to die, don't drag us into it."

"That's right. Instead of enjoying the comfortable life in the rear hospital, we have to go fight the Japanese.

What a jerk."

Several old soldiers behind him quickly came over and cursed at the lame old soldier.

Although they cursed, their actions were firm.

"Hey, Black-haired, stop pretending to be asleep.

Get up, the company commander and Zheng Quezi have left, and you are still sleeping."

These veterans along the way kept kicking the surroundings and calling out to the other huddled veterans to wake them up.

"Fuck it, even if you guys go to die, you have to take me with you.

I owed you this in my previous life."

Soon, more than thirty veterans gathered in front of Ye Qingshan.

“Hello, sir.

If we go with you, do we have to give you canned beef as well?

Zheng Quezi and the others all have it."

An old soldier shouted at Ye Qingshan.

"Haha, yes, everyone has one.

Even if there is none, I will take you to snatch it from the devils."

Ye Qingshan said with a big laugh.

"Oh my god, I don't feel good.

The new commander we are following this time also sounds like a lunatic."

Someone whispered.

"It's over. It's over.

A mad commander, leading a group of blind and lame soldiers.

Isn't this just delivering food to the Japanese?

Hey, why are you hitting me? Did I say something wrong?

Hey, you are still fighting.

Damn it, who poked my ass...

You guys are going too far..."

"We still need more people. Do you know where to recruit them?"

Ye Qingshan asked Zhou Pingkou.

“I really do know.”

Zhou Pingkou arrived at this rear hospital two days earlier than Ye Qingshan and his friends.

There is a lot to learn about the situation here.

With the help of Zhou Pingkou and veteran Zheng Quezi and others.

In the end, Ye Qingshan took away more than 120 veterans from this rear hospital.

When Ye Qingshan left the rear hospital, the number of veterans he took away was more than the number of wounded soldiers he brought.

If Ye Qingshan was given more time, he could take more people away from this rear hospital.

But Ye Qingshan didn't dare to stay any longer, for fear of any trouble.

If by chance he meets an officer with a higher rank than him, he might just let them stay and recruit him instead.

Not long after, Han Xiaofei, who had said goodbye to his sister, came over to meet Ye Qingshan.

Everyone left the rear hospital.

"The battalion commander and his men are back."

Soon, Ye Qingshan met up with Lu Dahai and others.

"Oh my god, it's really a full set of Japanese equipment."

Zheng Quezi and others looked at the Type 38 rifles carried by Lu Dahai and others, and the Type 99 light machine gun carried by Lao Dong.

There were also several grenade throwers who were tinkering with and studying the Japanese grenade throwers, and they were all extremely amazed.

For these veterans, guns are their second life.

The appeal of a good gun to them is huge.

"This is Captain Zhou Pingkou, formerly of the 51st Division."

Ye Qingshan introduced Zhou Pingkou to Lu Dahai.

"They are all veterans I brought out of the hospital. They will continue to fight the Japanese with us."

Ye Qingshan pointed at Zheng Quezi and others and continued.

After saying that, Ye Qingshan picked up a Type 38 rifle and threw it to Zheng Quezi: "I mean what I say.

Since you are willing to follow me and continue fighting the Japanese.

Let's first use the Japanese's Type 38 rifle to replace your old guns."

Zheng Quezi took the Type 38 rifle that Ye Qingshan threw over, pulled the bolt and aimed, checked it, and grinned foolishly, "Hehe, good gun.

It is much better than my Hanyang rifle, which is almost worn out. "

Soon, other veterans also upgraded their old rifles, such as the Hanyang rifle and the like, and replaced them with the Type 38 rifle.

"The Japanese Type 89 grenade launcher is a good thing."

Zhou Pingkou walked up to the soldiers who were tinkering with the grenade launchers, looked at Ye Qingshan and said.
