Tang Yufeng ignored those old fried dough sticks and looked at the more than 6,000 people who were willing to join the National Salvation Army: "Everyone should know that I am the deputy commander of the National Salvation Army, so I will no longer introduce myself. First of all, on behalf of the National Salvation Army, I welcome your joining. From today on the National Salvation Army, you will be a member of the National Salvation Army."

"In the previous battle against Shouyang and Yangquan, although the National Salvation Army suffered a considerable loss, the vacancies of each battalion and company have been filled, so there is no need to join the National Salvation Army for the time being."

"In order to alleviate the grain pressure caused by the blockade of the Japanese and puppet troops in the defense zone, the regiment headquarters decided to temporarily reorganize everyone into six agricultural reclamation brigades, and train while devouring land and farming in the defense zone."

"In the event of a battle breaking out in the defense zone in the future, personnel need to be drawn to supplement the main force, and the regiment headquarters will directly select the best candidates from the Agricultural Reclamation Brigade."

"The best-trained warriors are given priority to supplement the main force!"

A stone stirred up a thousand waves. As soon as Tang Yufeng finished speaking, the team of more than 6,000 people became boiling.

Most of the soldiers showed a reluctant expression, and then shouted: "We joined the National Salvation Army to fight the Japanese for revenge, not farming. I don't want to join the agricultural reclamation brigade. I want to join the main force to fight the Japanese!"

"I don't join the Agricultural Reclamation Brigade. I either go to the front line to fight the Japanese, or leave the National Salvation Army and return to the old army to fight the Japanese..."

The most fierce people were the ones among the prisoners who wanted to fight the Japanese the most. Tang Yufeng was very satisfied with their performance.

This kind of person is very energetic. When he goes to the battlefield, he will immediately turn into a screaming little tiger with his command...

Of course, any time, anywhere, no matter how good your personality is, it is a double-edged sword...

If you use this personality well, these people can become backbone of the army and anti-Japanese heroes; if they are not used well, they will become the most difficult thorn in the army to manage!

A large number of warriors chose to remain silent.

They basically don’t have many opinions, and the decision to join the National Salvation Army was also made according to the general trend.

I really want to fight the Japanese, but I’m afraid.

After hearing that they were going to be organized into a farm reclamation brigade and did not have to go to the battlefield for the time being, a hint of joy flashed through his heart.

In Tang Yufeng's view, although most of these people do not have the potential to become soldiers, they are obedient.

After replenishing the troops, they will all become the best soldiers of the National Salvation Army.

The army is a very strict discipline. Compared with the thorns with endless thoughts, the most needed soldiers are soldiers who are willing to obey the orders of the superiors. Only in this way can a unit be obeyed and everyone's strength is in the same place.

"What are you shouting? Stay quiet, don't whisper..." A soldier of the National Salvation Army scattered among the crowd shouted loudly.

Other soldiers responsible for managing these prisoners spoke one after another, and within a minute the chaos in the venue was stopped.

Tang Yufeng continued to shout to everyone: "I know everyone wants to fight the Japanese and don't want to farm, but we have to farm."

"Under the blockade of the Japanese and puppet troops, no grain outside can enter our defense zone. The food you eat these days is saved by the people in the defense zone themselves when they are hungry."

"You all have parents, wives and children. Do you want to watch them go hungry to fight the Japanese in order to give us a full meal?"

"Our National Salvation Army is a team of ordinary people. Without the support of the villagers, no matter how strong the troops are in combat, they are rootless and vague. They cannot gain a foothold in the enemy-occupied areas, so I can't do anything to make the villagers hungry to provide us with food."

"In order to reduce the burden on the people in the defense zone, not only do you need to farm, but the main force must farm."

"But because they need a lot of time to train troops and have to undertake a lot of combat tasks, each main force company only needs to reclaim 200 acres of wasteland, and the average per capita is more than one acre!"

"We don't need to undertake combat tasks, and everyone has a foundation and the training time does not need to be too long. Therefore, the regiment headquarters requires the Agricultural Reclamation Brigade to reclaim three acres of land per capita."

"Everyone has planted the fields, so it should be clear that for the strong labor force, the three acres of land per capita are not a lot. Apart from being busy during spring plowing and autumn harvest, there is basically nothing to do in normal times. Everyone should train and train as well, and it will not affect the combat effectiveness of the troops at all. When it is your turn to go to the battlefield, you will become a hero who kills the Japanese when you get the gun!"

"I'll tell you one more thing. Not only ordinary soldiers of the National Salvation Army need to reclaim land, but officers and cadres are no exception."

"I received the news in the morning: the leader reclaimed wasteland outside the city yesterday, and had dug up land for three consecutive days, almost one acre of wasteland."

"The leader of the group gave himself the requirement to reclaim two acres of land before spring plowing, and provide rations for half a year for self-sufficient food."

"I have been here these days and have no time to reclaim the land."

"After you are adapted, I will also reclaim two acres of wasteland and plant grain in spring plowing."

"Even the group leader set an example, took the lead in reclamation of land, was self-sufficient, and relieved the pressure on the villagers. Why can't we do it!"

"Soldiers are obeying orders as their duty. Since you have chosen to join the National Salvation Army, you must implement the orders of our National Salvation Army."

"We will start the adaptation now, and everyone is adapted into six agricultural reclamation brigades based on a unit of thousands of people."

"The team leader and the team leader are all elected by themselves. If someone thinks they are competent as the squadron leader, they can propose it themselves, and they can be regarded as the one who passes the assessment!"

More than a thousand are willing to join the National Salvation Army, or are still thinking about continuing to work hard for the Japanese prisoners standing beside them.

I heard that the prisoners who decided to join the National Salvation Army could not replenish the troops immediately. Everyone would be adapted into a farming brigade. After reclaiming land like ordinary people, many people showed sarcastic expressions on their faces.

There were even people who were lying coldly beside him, saying: "If I had known this, I would have not joined the National Salvation Army like them..."

As I listened, some of the prisoners who were not very firm in their attitudes, began to regret it because of the general trend.

Of course, Tang Yufeng would not let the situation worsen. With a wave of his hand, a company of soldiers rushed up and surrounded them.

Tang Yufeng followed him and said in front of everyone: "As for you, although you are not killed by sin, you cannot leave safely!"

"According to the order of the regiment headquarters, all of you here must join the labor reform brigade, and through labor reform, reduce the crimes you committed to the Japanese during their life."

"We will allow you to undergo labor reforms ranging from one to five years depending on the crimes you committed during your time as a puppet army."

"If there is any behavior of disobeying management or defecting during the renovation, we will decide to increase the renovation time or directly shoot it according to the degree of harshness."

"Of course, if someone performs very well during the renovation period, we will also reduce the time for everyone to make renovations."

"The labor reform brigade includes land reclamation and farming and completing other tasks assigned by the regiment headquarters. It is required that every person involved in the transformation reclaim at least five acres of land."

"If you have the ability, you can reclaim six acres of land and get a good harvest during autumn harvest. Every year you transform, you can reduce the renovation time by half a year."

"This means that you are working harder now. Dig an additional acre of land and serve the crops when reclaiming land. After the autumn harvest is over, most of you can leave the National Salvation Army."

"Why, I won't join the labor reform brigade? I want to go home. Your national rescue army has no right to detain us!" shouted a puppet army battalion commander hidden among the prisoners.

He has a considerable backstage in the enemy-occupied area. As long as he returns to the enemy-occupied area alive, he will be able to restore his position and continue to be the battalion commander.

If you join the transformation brigade, it means you have to stay here for at least one year.

It took too long, and maybe he wouldn't know himself in the backstage at that time. Moreover, he was used to being pampered and could not farm at all, and could not endure hardships. Letting him join the land reclamation brigade to farm would be more painful than killing him.

As soon as he opened his mouth, his subordinates around him started to shout, as if Tang Yufeng would not give up until he took the order back.

Tang Yufeng was not polite at all to deal with the people in front of him, and decisively took out the box cannon and shot it at the sky.

"Bang..."

The harsh gunshots shocked the prisoners all at once. The soldiers of two squads of soldiers decisively rushed into the prisoners group and caught the battalion commander who had just spoken out in less than two minutes.

"Just just now, you were the first to disagree to join the Labor Reform Brigade!" Tang Yufeng asked with a calm face.

The battalion commander was very scared at first, but when he thought of more than a thousand prisoners standing behind him to support him, and the National Salvation Army had the discipline to not kill prisoners indiscriminately, he instantly became bolder and answered with his head held high, "I'm just an ordinary soldier. Your National Salvation Army has no right to hold me and not let go!"

Speaking of this, the battalion commander seemed to be brave enough to continue shouting: "There are more than a thousand brothers behind him watching. If your national rescue army kills innocent people indiscriminately, they will definitely not submit to your national rescue army!"

"Is that true?" Tang Yufeng snorted coldly and replied.

He turned around and looked at the more than a thousand prisoners in front of him and shouted loudly: "Our national rescue army does not kill innocent people indiscriminately, nor will it kill prisoners for no reason."

"But the man standing next to me is not innocent."

"After investigation, he was the captive battalion commander of the puppet army, a hardcore traitor of the Japanese. In order to work hard for the Japanese and gain the Japanese's trust, at least five puppet soldiers were killed by him."

"So the person standing in front of you is not an ordinary soldier at all, but a big traitor and a big villain who is not very eyebrowed, and everyone can kill him!"

"You are talking nonsense. I am just an ordinary soldier, not a battalion commander. The National Rescue Army wants to kill the chicken to warn the monkey. They will talk nonsense again..." The battalion commander panicked and argued anxiously.

Tang Yufeng did not intend to hide his thoughts at all, and answered without hesitation: "You are right. I want to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, but I didn't say anything nonsense."

"There must be many of you who know him, know his true identity, and have done bad things with him."

"I will give you a promise now. As long as someone dares to come forward and report the true identity of this person, no matter how long it will be for your labor reform, I will give you a year.

There must be a brave man under heavy rewards, and in such an emergency, there are more people who want to be a brave man.

A prisoner who was quite close to the battalion commander suddenly stood up: "Sir, I report... I turned out to be a platoon leader under his command. He was indeed the battalion commander, and he also promised us to leave the National Salvation Army and continue to run to the Japanese to be traitors..."

"I also report that he is indeed a veritable battalion commander..."
