The puppet army surrendered, and Zhang Dabiao took over Wanjia Town with a battalion of soldiers.
However, considering that the First Battalion would not stay in Wanjia Town for long, Kong Jie ordered Zhang Dabiao to restrain the soldiers and not affect the lives of the residents of Wanjia Town.
Soldiers took out ammunition, firearms, and various materials from the warehouse of the puppet army in Wanjia Town, and tied them to war horses. Several hundred war horses were enough for the soldiers to take away all the trophies seized in Wanjia Town. The puppet army
The bullets in their hands were also confiscated. The independent regiment was so poor that they didn't want to leave any bullets for these puppet troops.
"Boss, boss, hello, I am the battalion commander here. If you have anything to do, boss, we brothers will cooperate fully. We hope you will be merciful, boss." Seeing Kong Jie's arrival, the puppet battalion commander quickly tried to please him.
said.
The puppet battalion commander was a little worried. As a cavalry battalion under the Eighth Brigade of the Imperial Association Army, they considered themselves much stronger than other puppet troops. In normal times, many of them had oppressed ordinary people. Now,
When the Eighth Route Army arrived, he was still very worried that he would be killed by the Eighth Route Army. Facing the surrounding battalion of soldiers with guns guarding them, the puppet battalion commander was full of worry.
"As long as you don't do anything bad, don't worry, our Eighth Route Army will not touch you." Kong Jie glanced at the puppet battalion commander and said in a deep voice.
The puppet battalion commander's face was ugly. He was worried about this matter. "Boss, we have something to discuss. How much do you think it would cost to buy my life? As long as I can survive, I am willing to donate a certain amount of money to your army as a ransom."
Capital!"
"Just keep your money for yourself." Kong Jie realized that this puppet battalion commander must have done nothing good.
Kong Jie had no good impression of such puppet troops. Looking at the other captured puppet troops, Kong Jie began to persuade them to join the independent regiment and fight the Japanese with the independent regiment. After all, these puppet troops
The puppet army has lost so many war horses and will definitely be punished by the Japanese. It is not necessarily a good thing to stay here and continue to be a puppet army.
However, Kong Jie felt helpless when looking at the puppet troops who did not fluctuate much. These puppet troops were somewhat insecure, and they were sure that the Eighth Route Army would not kill them all. Many of the puppet troops were glad in their hearts. On weekdays, because of their
Because their positions are relatively low, they have no chance to bully ordinary people. Now, they have never done such a thing, which means they are safe.
Many officers of the puppet army looked ugly. They wanted to survive, but without weapons in their hands, facing a battalion of gun-wielding soldiers around them, they had no chance of escaping. As for inciting the surrounding puppet troops to resist, of course
It is also impossible. The other puppet soldiers are not fools. They know that their lives are not in danger, so naturally they will not follow these officers to death.
"Captain Kong, could you please let me say a few words?" Seeing that Kong Jie's persuasion had no effect, Liu Gen stepped forward and said.
Liu Gen didn't know if his persuasion would be effective, but he was willing to give it a try. He had nothing to do, and it wouldn't be a waste of time to try.
"Okay! Then come and try it." Kong Jie was a little surprised, but still said.
Although Kong Jie didn't think what Liu Gen said would have any effect, he was still willing to let Liu Gen give it a try. Now that the independent regiment's establishment is being reduced, a large number of soldiers need to be supplemented. The combat effectiveness of these Imperial Association troops is very weak, so
Because there is very little training in daily life, if these people can be absorbed into the independent regiment, then Kong Jie will have a way to prevent these puppet soldiers from having any other thoughts.
"Comrades, the person who spoke to you just now is the deputy leader of our regiment. Now let me say a few words to you."
"We are all Chinese. There is no denying this. I know that many of you choose to become puppet soldiers because you cannot have enough to eat. The Japanese devils are also very powerful. You choose to join the Japanese army and help them fight.
Imperial Alliance Army! But this is not the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War. In the past few years, haven't you seen that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese devils is not that strong? Let's not talk about the far ones, let's talk about the near ones. The devils have attacked our Eighth Route Army base areas.
The encirclement and suppression campaign did not have any effect, but many Japanese died under the guns of our Eighth Route Army!"
"..."
Facing these puppet troops, Liu Genxiao used reason and emotion. The main reason was to catch the fact that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese devils was not that strong, and the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army was also getting stronger. The most important thing was that they did not join
In the Eighth Route Army, when the Japs come, they will definitely be punished to a certain extent. In addition, Liu Gen has made a guarantee that after these people join the independent regiment, they will have enough to eat every day and a certain monthly allowance.
, many people are tempted and choose to join the independent group.
Soon, most of the puppet soldiers made a decision and chose to join the independent regiment. Most of the remaining puppet soldiers who had not made a decision were officers in the puppet army. They often committed evil deeds and knew that they would not
What a good ending. As for the other puppet troops, they want to leave, find a place to hide, and no longer participate in any battles.
Liu Gen and others did not choose to interfere with the decisions made by these puppet troops. After most of the puppet troops decided to join the independent regiment, other people were responsible for this matter.
"Genzi, it's yours. I didn't expect you to take down these puppet troops in just two or three sentences." Kong Jie looked at Liu Gen and said with admiration.
Liu Gen shook his head quickly, not daring to accept Kong Jie's praise, "Captain Kong, these people chose to join our independent regiment because they saw that our Eighth Route Army can win battles and dare to fight against the Japanese! What's more, we rebelled some time ago
The victory of the encirclement and suppression campaign also played a big role. The Japanese have become weaker, and these puppet soldiers are not fools, so they naturally know how to choose."
"What you said is true. Many people know this, but you are the only one who said it. When I go back, I will tell Lao Li about your performance and ask him to take credit for you." Kong Jie patted Liu.
Gen's shoulders and said with a smile.
There were less than 200 puppet troops who chose to join the independent regiment. This was also because the puppet cavalry battalion had a small number of people. There were less than 300 people in the cavalry battalion. This was the reason why Li Yunlong was confident that he could easily win this cavalry battalion.
If these puppet troops are brought back, as long as they undergo sufficient training, they will be able to quickly form combat effectiveness. However, if such a large number of puppet troops join the independent regiment, it will also have some impact, but these matters will be left to Li Yunlong, the regiment leader, to have a headache
Bar.
At six or seven in the morning, Kong Jie left Wanjia Town with Liu Gen and others. The first battalion of soldiers plus the puppet troops preparing to join the independent regiment totaled nearly 500 people. In addition to the horses they brought with them, the team's
The scale seemed a bit huge. Different from when he came here, when he went back, Kong Jie sent many soldiers to investigate and avoid any attacks.
More than 300 horses are still quite valuable, and I'm afraid many people will have ideas.
