I rise from the sword

Chapter 135 The Return of Luo Jun
Time flies, and three days pass in a blink of an eye.

At noon that day, Yang Lin was training recruits in the back mountain.

Due to the fact that there are too many new recruits recently recruited, and in future operations, it is inevitable that there will be casualties in each company.

Considering the issue of replenishment for each company, Yang Lin set up a supplementary company, that is, a reserve company.

The task of the supplementary company is to train new recruits and be responsible for supplementing each company.

At present, including the newly recruited recruits, as well as the puppet troops and bandits incorporated, the total strength of the independent battalion has exceeded 2000, which is not counted as the fourth company of the Luo army.

Counting the time, he should be back soon.

Before, Qian Bojun's battalion had 2000 people, which made Yang Lin envious.

But now, under the development of Yang Lin, the independent battalion can be described as strong and well-equipped.

Except for the fact that the overall quality of the soldiers was still a bit lower than that of Qian Bojun's first battalion, the strength of the independent battalion in other aspects had already crushed the opponent.

However, there were too many soldiers, and another problem troubled Yang Lin.

That's talent!
The independent battalion is really short of talents.

Since there was no suitable candidate, Yang Lin had no choice but to choose a general from among the short men, and promoted Shi Laosan, the squad leader of the first guard squad, to become the deputy company commander of the supplementary company.

As for the company commander of the supplementary company, Yang Lin will do it himself and serve concurrently temporarily.

Yang Lin plans to train Shi Laosan for a period of time, and if he is sure that the other party is a man who can be made, he will be righted.

But if the other party doesn't have that ability, then let him go.

There is no way, the company commander of the supplementary company is a very important position, how strong the continuous combat capability of each main battle company is, almost entirely depends on the supplementary company.

Therefore, it can be said that the role of the supplementary company is no less than that of the other main battle companies.

For such an important position, Yang Lin naturally couldn't let the wine bag and rice bag take it.

At this moment, Niu Bold suddenly ran over in a hurry.

"Brother Lin, Brother Lin, Chen Chen is back! Chen Chen is back!"

"Oh? Chen Chen is back?"

This really means that Cao Cao and Cao Cao are here.

"Where is he now?"

Niu boldly took a breath and said, "He's at the battalion headquarters."

Yang Lin nodded. After handing over the training task of the supplementary company to Shi Laosan, he took Niu Boldly to the battalion headquarters.

"battalion commander!"

"battalion commander!"

In the living room of the battalion headquarters, Yang Jun and Tiaozi immediately stood up from their seats when they heard footsteps outside the door.

Yang Lin glanced at the dusty couple and said, "You guys have worked hard!"

Chen Yang quickly shook his head and said, "It's not hard."

"I heard from the steak chief that you brought a lot of brothers back this time?"

"Fortunately, I have brought a total of 853 brothers back this time." Luo Jun showed an uncontrollable excited smile on his face.

"Really? That's great!"

Yang Lin was also overjoyed. With the addition of these 850 people, the total strength of the independent battalion was close to 3000. Although he was still the battalion commander in name, he lived the life of a regimental commander or even a brigade commander.

The most important thing is that these 850 people have all touched guns, fought with devils, and have combat experience, so they are almost ready to use, which is much better than the newly recruited recruits.

After a pause, he asked impatiently, "Where are they now?"

Luo Jun replied: "They are still at the gate of the garrison, waiting for your review, battalion commander!"

"Go, go to the gate of the station!"

Yang Lin waved his hand and took the lead towards the entrance of the station.

……

outside the station.

Hundreds of armed men dressed in various services were chatting in small groups.

Suddenly, the wooden fence at the gate of the Independent Battalion was removed by the sentry on duty, and several officers walked out from inside.

Seeing this, everyone immediately stopped talking and put out the cigarette butts in their hands.

"The leader!"

"Leader Luo!"

Luo Jun stepped forward and introduced to everyone: "This is the well-known Battalion Commander Yang Lin Yang in our Northwest Shanxi region. From now on, he will be our Battalion Commander!"

"Hello, battalion commander!"

"Hello, battalion commander!"

Hearing Luo Jun's introduction, everyone greeted Yang Lin one after another. The people standing behind stretched their necks, looking forward to see what their hero looked like.

The reason why they were willing to follow Chen Yang to Luotuoling was because they admired Yang Lin.

Otherwise, they would not bother to join them if they were replaced by ordinary national army units.

Yang Lin didn't expect the enthusiasm of the crowd to be so high. He felt that it was necessary to say something. Firstly, it was familiar, and secondly, it was convenient for future command work.

He stepped forward, waved his hands to everyone, and said: "Everyone, my humble Yang Lin, from this moment today, I will be your battalion commander.

Now the country is in crisis, the nation is in crisis, and Shanxi is in crisis!
Our generation of soldiers should swear to the death to defend every inch of land, defend our country, and defend our national dignity!
From now on, if you join my independent camp, you will be the life and death brothers of me, Mr. Yang.

I can't promise to get promoted and get rich, but as long as I go to the battlefield, no matter what happens, I promise that I will never abandon you, even if there are mountains of swords and fire, Yang will live and die with all brothers, advance and retreat together!

If there is a promise, both humans and gods will punish it! "

Everyone was excited when they heard this, and Luo Jun acted like a little fan, and immediately took the lead in responding: "I swear to live and die with you, sir!"

"We swear to live and die with the chief, to live and die together!"

"We swear to live and die with the chief, to live and die together!"

"We swear to live and die with the chief, to live and die together!"

……

Soon, the more than 800 people present all raised their arms and shouted in unison.

The monstrous sound waves converged into strands, soaring straight into the sky, inspiring people's hearts.

Invisibly, Yang Lin, a well-known anti-Japanese hero in Shanxi, has won the initial favor and impression of these recruits.

……

Time turned, and another half a month passed.

In the past half a month, Yang Lin has been training the troops, and the recruits are also working very hard. Their quality in all aspects is growing at a speed that can be seen by the naked eye.

At the same time, Yang Lin also built the Feilei Cannon and put it into the training of the artillery company.

The effect is also as introduced by the system, whether it is accuracy or range, compared with the traditional thunder cannon, it has been greatly improved.

Although Zhao Yuting was well-informed, he was still stunned after experimenting with the power of the Thunder Cannon.

The lethality of this thing is completely comparable to that of a large-caliber howitzer!
The most important thing is that the Flying Thunder Cannon is light in weight. Compared with the large-caliber howitzer, its volume is much smaller, and it is very easy to carry and hide.

Although its range is far inferior to other artillery, its strategic role in the mountainous terrain of Northwest Shanxi is far greater than that of other artillery.

With this thing, the devil's bunker is completely a living target of paper, and it is not vulnerable at all.

It is worth mentioning that during this period of time, although the independent battalion was relatively safe, there was no fighting.

But the whole of Jinzhong, and even the northwestern region of Shanxi, is about to become a pot of porridge, and the smell of gunpowder is everywhere.

Facing the cruel sweep of the Japanese army, this time, the Chinese army did not abandon the city and flee, but prepared to gather heavy troops to fight the Japanese army in the Jinzhong area, and to have a head-to-head decisive battle.

In this battle, the armies of both China and Japan mobilized heavy troops, and a great battle kicked off...
