Anti-Japanese War: I have unlimited assistance

After the fighter plane flew over, Li Yunlong began his speech.

Loudspeakers were tied to various areas of the venue and surrounding telephone poles and connected with wires to ensure that Li Yunlong's voice reached the ears of every soldier.

"You all saw it just now, right? Those are our Eighth Route Army's own fighter planes and bombers."

"In this Hundred Battalions Battle, I have only one request for everyone: Kill those bastards!"

"Remember, even if there is only one person left in our Northwest Shanxi Military Region, we must continue the attack, and we must die on the way to the charge!"

"If anyone is afraid, I can give him a chance to take off his military uniform, surrender his weapon, and become a civilian. Is that right?"

"no!"

More than 100,000 people responded in unison, and the murderous aura was overwhelming.

"it is good!"

"Men of courage, tighten your leggings, polish your bayonets, bring grenades, and bring bullets!"

"If they want to eat up China, we must let the Japanese know that not only will they have their teeth broken, but they will also have to pay a price they can't even imagine!"

"Time is pressing, so I won't say much. Now, I'll let Political Commissar Zhao make the pre-war mobilization."

After Li Yunlong spoke a few words, he handed the microphone to Zhao Gang.

Although pre-war mobilization is also Li Yunlong's strong point, a speech can directly soar the morale of the soldiers and turn them into a group of howling wolves.

However, he gave the opportunity of pre-war mobilization to Zhao Gang. Zhao Gang also had his own way of ideological work and pre-war mobilization.

clap clap clap...

Amidst thunderous applause, Zhao Gang walked to the phone with a serious expression.

"Hey hey~"

Zhao Gang blew on the microphone to make sure it was working properly before he began to speak:
"Comrades!"

"Today, we stand on the land of northwest Shanxi. Under our feet are the mountains and rivers watered by the blood and sweat of the Chinese people for thousands of years, and above our heads are the dark clouds trampled by the iron hooves of the Japanese invaders!"

"Today, all the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army of the Northwest Shanxi Military Region have gathered here, not to retreat, not to remain silent, but to use our bayonets and our blood to roar the loudest to the invaders - China will never surrender!"

"On July 1937, 7, the Japanese invaders provoked an incident at Marco Polo Bridge in Beijing, attempting to use force to force us to surrender and cut our country into pieces!"

"They burned down villages and massacred their compatriots. Did they think the Chinese would kneel down and beg for mercy?"

"No! Today we will use the full might of a hundred battalions to crush their bones and chop off their heads!"

"We must prove with our actions that even if the enemy is strong and we are weak, even if the enemy is well-trained, justice is in our hands and the people's support is behind us!"

"What is our mission?"

"First, recapture the Zhengtai Railway! Turn the Japanese trains into scrap metal and prevent their artillery shells from reaching the front lines!"

"Second, recapture the provincial capital of Taiyuan and remove the poisonous thorns that have pierced the hearts of our fellow villagers one by one!"

"Third, we must destroy the Japanese and puppet troops. Use our weapons to wipe out the enemies in Shanxi and let the invaders and traitors know that the land of China is their burial place!"

"I know some people will ask: How many soldiers will be sacrificed in such a large-scale battle?"

"Indeed, we will face an unprecedented bloody battle. The fighting will be brutal, and many of us will be sacrificed."

"What I want to say is that no matter how great the sacrifice, this is the price we must bear because we are soldiers!"

"We shoulder the mission and responsibility of defending our territory and resisting the enemy!"

"If we don't sacrifice ourselves, will we be forced to sacrifice ourselves by chewing tree bark and swallowing grass roots while giving our last bowl of millet porridge to the Eighth Route Army?"

"Look at these sparks all over the mountains. From the victory at Pingxingguan to the victory in northwestern Shanxi, our victory depends not only on the weapons in our hands, but also on our spirit of sacrifice and risk-taking!" "Comrades! Some comrades will fall in this battle, but their names will be engraved into the rocks of northwestern Shanxi and melt into the waves of the Yellow River! We shed blood today so that tomorrow's children will no longer have to flee!"

"Today we attack to make the sun rise again in China!"

"Finally, remember these three iron rules: First, never leave a wounded person behind!"

"Second, never take a single needle or thread from the people!"

"Third, even if we only have one last breath left, we must plant the flag on the enemy's position!"

"Comrades! This battle is not about the gain or loss of a city or a pond, but we want to tell all of China and the world: We Chinese will never be slaves!"

The whole audience stood in silence, the wind was whistling, and the morning sun cast a red glow on the resolute faces.

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers roared in unison.

"Never a slave!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The shouts and cries of killing rose into the sky, piercing through the clouds and splitting the rocks.

The overwhelming fighting spirit and morale completely ignited the bloodiness of the soldiers.

The soldiers' eyes were filled with murderous intent that was as real as a wolf's, and their gazes were like those of hungry wolves, eager to eat the flesh of the Japanese.

Li Yunlong nodded on the side. Zhao Gang’s pre-war mobilization and domineering speech immediately made Li Yunlong feel excited.

"What a great saying! The Chinese will never be slaves!"

Zhao Gang took two steps back, and Li Yunlong stepped forward and spoke loudly into the microphone:

"A soldier must have the courage to win when two enemies meet on a narrow road!"

The soldiers shouted: "Kill the enemy to the death! Defend the country!"

Li Yunlong nodded with satisfaction and said, "Now I order—all troops to attack according to the predetermined plan. Let the artillery fire of the Hundred Battalions Battle become the death knell for the invaders and traitors!"

As Li Yunlong's order was issued, all the troops followed the instructions and left Ping'an County and headed towards Datong and Taiyuan.

This unprecedented pre-war mobilization is destined to go down in history.

The people of Ping'an County also watched this pre-war mobilization and were all shocked.

For hundreds of years afterwards, the legend of this pre-war mobilization was still circulating in Ping'an County and even in the entire northwest of Shanxi.

On the way to the front line, the roadsides were filled with ordinary people holding cloth shoes, eggs, vegetables and fruits. When they saw the Eighth Route Army soldiers, they enthusiastically stuffed the things in their hands into the soldiers' hands...

Looking at the tanks, cannons, powerful soldiers, and three fighter jets flying overhead, the people felt a sense of security.

The headquarters of the new regiment, Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and others will also set off with the troops immediately.

Zhang Dabiao handed over a telegram: "Commander, I just received intelligence that the Japanese have transferred the main force of the 109th Division deployed on the Zhengtai Railway and added a regiment of troops in Xin County."

"This way," Zhao Gang said with a slightly serious expression, "the battles to attack Xin County and Taiyuan will become more difficult."

"As expected." Li Yunlong's expression remained unchanged. "The Japanese can't hold the two county towns of Yangquan and Shouyang. They only need to hold Niangzi Pass, and the main force of the North China Front Army can enter Shanxi through Niangzi Pass."

"The commander is right." Zhang Dabiao, with a shaved head and sharp eyes, nodded. "Niangzi Pass is a place that is extremely important to both us and the Japanese."

Li Yunlong said sternly, "Order the New 1st Regiment's Flight Squadron and the Headquarters' Flight Regiment to conduct an all-around bombing of the outer fortifications of Xin County."

Zhang Dabiao: "Yes!" (End of this chapter)
