The power of the group can infinitely amplify the appeal.
This is also the place where the military is most full of charm and temptation.
When you are in such a group, you are surrounded by a group of passionate comrades and brothers who can fight side by side and even take bullets for each other.
You will feel sincerely that a visit here will make your life in this world worthwhile.
The melody of the tragic and passionate Broadsword March gradually stopped on the training ground. The tearful soldiers wiped the tears from their eyes silently one by one, and their eyes became more determined.
The sad soldiers will win!
This is probably the truth.
"You successfully boosted the morale of the whole team, morale 1"
"You have successfully improved the cohesion of the whole group, cohesion 1" (The increase in attribute values means the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the entire independent group, which can be reflected in actual combat.)
This was an expected gain, and Kong Jie no longer cared about it. At this moment, he was immersed in the same tragic atmosphere as the soldiers.
Because this night attack on Xiao'an Town, the independent regiment only dispatched one reinforced platoon, which naturally cannot represent the entire regiment. Therefore, despite successfully capturing Xiao'an Town, the attributes of the entire regiment did not change much, except for the equipment and
Logistics has added a few points.
"Independent Regiment Equipment 3, Logistics 5." (The higher the value, the more difficult it is to increase.)
Xiaoan Town is one of the small material transportation hubs of the Japanese army. The captured living materials are abundant, mainly because the logistics attribute value has increased a lot.
Three points were added to the equipment section, and a Type 92 infantry gun, three heavy machine guns, and eight light machine guns were seized, plus a considerable number of rifles, pistols, grenades, grenades, and bullets.
Nowadays, the weapons and equipment of the independent regiment have begun to become more generous, and each combatant can already have one rifle and about 30 rounds of bullets.
In addition, Wang Chengzhu's artillery platoon was constantly being filled with grenades and artillery.
Even the two main regiments of the 386th Brigade have been separated by Kong Jie's independent regiment in terms of weapons and equipment.
Back to the present.
Kong Jie and his group of Eighth Route Army attached great importance to and commemorated the sacrificed personnel. This atmosphere also shocked Wang An and other puppet troops who attended the ceremony.
If they work for a living among the Japanese, they will die. If they die, they will die.
The Japanese were happy and after the battle, they ordered the bodies to be brought back and buried hastily. If the Japanese were not happy, it would not be unusual for them to just abandon the bodies and leave them in the wilderness.
How could the sacrificed Eighth Route Army soldiers in front of us receive such high standards of courtesy even if they died!
Hundreds of Eighth Route Army soldiers shed tears for it.
This can also be seen from the side of the friendship and cohesion of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment. The puppet army here feels like a big family. The sacrifice of any soldier is as heartbreaking as the death of a brother or sister.
.
Wang An, the company commander of the puppet army, even thought that now that he had surrendered, he was now a member of the Eighth Route Army. If he sacrificed himself in the future, Commander Kong and the others would be so sad, it would be worth it.
After the singing and farewell, Kong Jie ordered: "Bury these comrades on the highest hill where we are stationed! The view is far and wide there. If they miss us, they can see us from above at any time, whether we are training or eating.
, they can see it when we sleep, and they must want to continue to stay with us."
"Yes!" Third Battalion Commander Wang Huaibao responded with tears.
It was already late after burying the thirteen veterans who had died. It was not until the morning of the next day that Kong Jie summoned the puppet troops and his party to the training ground.
During the lecture, Kong Jie got straight to the point: "My name is Kong Jie, the commander of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. I don't care whether you have heard of me or not. I just have this temper and speak straight to the point."
"You used to be traitors. To be honest, I was very angry. If we had met you before, I would have chopped off your heads without even saying a word."
"In this attack on Xiao'an Town, some of you performed well, especially your company commander Wang An. This guy was very useful at the critical moment, like a Chinese soldier with backbone."
The puppet company commander Wang An burst into laughter when he was named and praised.
Kong Jie continued: "I will give you a chance now. Our Eighth Route Army will not buy or sell by force. If you are willing to stay as the Eighth Route Army, kill the Japanese, wash away the reputation of traitors, and serve for your crimes, then you can stay. If you are really unhappy,
Then leave and I will pay you the expenses."
"Okay, let's just say it. You think about it for yourselves. If you want to leave, stand on the left."
After saying this, Kong Jie said nothing.
Wang An, who had just been praised, said nothing, and was the first to reply: "Captain, I, Wang An, am willing to stay. We are soldiers to begin with. What we say about defending our home and country is too false, and you may not believe it, Commander."
To be honest, just to earn a living, even to earn a living among the Japanese, you are treated like a dog and cannon fodder every day, no one takes your life seriously, and you are still poked at when you return to your hometown.
I scolded him with all my spine, calling him a big traitor and a running dog. This life is quite useless. To be honest, none of the brothers are happy to live such a life."
"But since we are just making a living, why don't we eat anywhere? If we work as Eighth Route Army, we won't starve to death. We can kill Japanese soldiers and gain the reputation of an anti-Japanese hero. Maybe when we go back to our hometown, the village chief will have to bang the gong.
Drums are playing to welcome you! This is a good thing to do when you return home in fine clothes."
"Even if you follow the regiment leader to kill the Japanese and die, you are still a martyr! Haven't you seen those Eighth Route brothers who sacrificed heroically before? There are so many brothers who are thinking about you, seeing you off, and remembering you, that is death
Yes, it’s damn worth it.”
"Captain, I'm determined to do the Eighth Route Army!"
Kong Jie was happy, and the more he looked at Wang An, the more satisfied he became. This guy was indeed a clever man, and he knew the thoughts of these puppet soldiers very well.
After saying this, Kong Jie was thinking that if he were a puppet soldier, he would probably be tempted.
Sure enough, with Wang An taking the lead, the remaining puppet army generals quickly followed suit.
The second person who firmly expressed his willingness to stay in the Eighth Route Army to fight the Japanese was Sun Quan, the third company commander of the puppet army.
Kong Jie was startled when he heard the name, Sun Quan? Three Kingdoms? Lord of Soochow?
The result is said to be "perfect" and "complete".
Got it!
This is a good name.
Under the chain effect, more and more puppet troops chose to stay in the Eighth Route Army. In the end, no one was willing to quit.
Of course, Kong Jie is not stupid. Some people here have impure thoughts, or their wills are not firm enough, and there must be some who are still wavering.
However, Kong Jie has this confidence, as long as they are fully integrated into the independent group.
Coupled with the ideological education of the instructors (grievance meetings and the like), things can be corrected slowly under a subtle influence.
Kong Jie and Ding Wei agree on this point. If these puppet soldiers are well trained and ideologically educated, they will definitely be a powerful force.
