Anti-Japanese War: Plunder the devils to create a super army

"Brigade Commander! Pah! Army Commander! Hehehehe! You are the Army Commander now!"

Li Yunlong's face flushed red, and he was as excited as if he had discovered a new continent. He rushed forward and patted Wang Lin's shoulder heavily.

Looking at Wang Lin's surprised expression, he couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter. His laughter echoed in the room, as if it was going to break through the roof.

"Tsk tsk tsk, watch out, kid! Wang Lin is now a military commander after all! Look at you, you have no respect for your elders!"

Ding Wei watched Li Yunlong making a fuss from the side and couldn't help but stepped forward and gently pushed Li Yunlong away with a reproachful look on his face.

"Hey! What's it to you if I congratulate our commander?"

Li Yunlong muttered with disgust, curled his lips, like a naughty child. He walked to the side while talking, and turned back to glare at Ding Wei from time to time.

"Come on, let's go out first."

Seeing that Wang Lin was still immersed in shock and had not come to his senses for a while, everyone looked at each other and decided to leave for the time being to give Wang Lin some time to digest this heavy news.

Wang Lin stood there, his thoughts tangled like a tangled mess.

He was not shocked by the speed of his promotion. After all, in this war-torn era, everything was possible.

His mind was now occupied by two key issues: after forming an army-level unit, how to reasonably distribute weapons and equipment so that each weapon can play the greatest role; facing the remaining Japanese troops, what combat strategy should be adopted to defeat the enemy in the next battle.

These two questions were like two huge mountains, weighing heavily on his heart and plunging him into deep thought.

Time passed minute by minute, Wang Lin paced in the room, and his thoughts gradually became clearer.

After a long period of careful consideration, he finally determined the organizational situation in his mind.

"Come in, let's have a meeting!"

Wang Lin took a deep breath, walked out of the room, waved to the team leaders, his eyes revealing determination and decisiveness, and signaled them to go in.

Several regiment commanders were originally discussing in low voices outside. When they heard Wang Lin's call, they looked surprised, but they immediately straightened their uniforms and followed Wang Lin into the room.

"Everyone knows that our Special Operations Brigade has been expanded into a Special Operations Army. Our superiors have also required each of our units to expand, so I will now announce the organizational structure of each combat unit as follows!"

Wang Lin stood in front of everyone, his voice loud and powerful, as if carrying an innate majesty.

"The Independent Regiment, the New 1st Regiment, the New nd Regiment, and the st Special Operations Regiment have been expanded into division-level combat units! The original regimental commander has been promoted to division commander!"

His words resounded in the room like a huge bell, every word clear and powerful.

"The other several special operations regiments were all expanded into special operations brigades, with the brigade commanders being the respective regiment commanders."

"As of now, the total strength of the Special Operations Force is approximately 100,000!"

Wang Lin told his subordinates the news of the troop expansion in an orderly manner.

As soon as the words fell, the room exploded.

"Wow! One hundred thousand people! Our Special Operations Brigade... oh no, the Special Operations Army is eating good food too!"

One of the group leaders was so excited that his face turned red and his voice trembled.

"One hundred thousand people! I can't even imagine the scale!"

The other team leader's eyes widened, his face filled with shock and excitement.

"With our current size, we can completely liberate all of China! A force of 100,000 men!"

Everyone was talking at once, their excitement was beyond words, and everyone's face was filled with proud smiles.

"Hahahaha! Old Li has become a division commander! He can be so majestic now!"

Li Yunlong smiled from ear to ear, and the pride on his face was almost overflowing, as if he could already see himself leading the troops to charge into battle heroically.

"Look how happy you are! You're really promising!"

Ding Wei looked at Li Yunlong's smug look and couldn't help but tease him.

"Hey! You're not happy! Stop pretending! I've already seen what you're thinking!"

Li Yunlong immediately retorted, and the two of them talked back and forth like two bickering children, making everyone laugh.

After everyone's joy at the news had worn off a little, Wang Lin's expression gradually grew serious. He cleared his throat and issued the next combat order.

"We now have a combat force of 100,000 troops. The Japanese army in East China is still quite large. Especially in Nanjing and Shanghai, the Japanese troops stationed there are few in number and equipment."

His eyes revealed a firm determination as they swept across everyone's face.

"So, in two days, have all the troops prepare. We will continue eastwards. Our next target will be Nanjing!"

His voice was firm, as if declaring their determination to the Japanese army.

……

In another dark corner, a conspiracy is quietly unfolding.

"Damn it! What the hell are we supposed to do with hoes on our backs? I'm dying of exhaustion!"

A puppet soldier was carrying a hoe with difficulty, cursing under his breath, his face full of fatigue and dissatisfaction.

"Who the hell knows what these bastards are thinking! With just a few dozen little devils, why don't we just run away?"

Another puppet soldier looked around cautiously and suggested in a low voice, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"Run? There are Japanese strongholds for dozens of miles around here, and we're wearing Imperial Army uniforms! Run? Where to run?"

The third puppet soldier sighed helplessly, his voice full of despair.

The night was as dark as ink, and the Yamazaki special forces, along with a group of puppet troops, were marching towards the Poyang Lake embankment.

In order to stop the special forces from advancing eastward, Hata Shunroku racked his brains and finally decided to dig and blow up the dam of Poyang Lake, attempting to let the lake water flow along the Yangtze River to form a flood area, thereby obstructing the special forces from advancing eastward.

This time, the Yamazaki Special Forces was tasked with this secret mission. They led some puppet troops and sneaked to Poyang Lake to conduct excavations under the cover of night.

However, these puppet soldiers had no idea what terrible consequences their upcoming actions would bring.

"Captain! Those Imperial Army soldiers seem a bit negative. Should we teach them a lesson?"

A Japanese soldier in the team keenly noticed that the puppet army was in a low mood at the moment, so he quickly walked to Captain Yamazaki and reported in a low voice.

"No need for that. Now is a critical moment. It would be bad if the Eighth Route Army discovered our whereabouts. We must keep a low profile."

Captain Yamazaki frowned, glanced at the exhausted puppet troops in the rear, and then said helplessly.

After all, their main task now is to hurry to the Poyang Lake embankment. If they have conflicts with the puppet troops on the way, they may not be obedient when asked to do the work later, which will delay important matters.

"Yes! I understand!"

After responding to Captain Yamazaki, the subordinate immediately walked quickly to the back of the team and loudly urged the puppet soldiers to move faster, with a hint of impatience in his voice.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, the team was getting closer and closer to their destination.

"Where the hell did this guy go?!"

A puppet soldier stopped and looked around in confusion.

"I don't know! But why does it look so much like the road to Poyang Lake?"

Another puppet soldier also narrowed his eyes and looked carefully at the surrounding environment.

"Hiss... Now that you mention it, they really do look alike!"

"What the hell! They're not giving us tools just to tell us to dig something up! We should go to the lake!"

The puppet soldiers began to discuss in low voices, their doubts growing, and they all speculated about what the Japanese army asked them to do.

"Bakayaro! What are you guys whispering about back there? Be quiet!"

A Japanese soldier heard the puppet soldiers whispering in the back and immediately became furious. He shouted at them angrily, his voice particularly harsh in the dark night.

After being yelled at by the Japanese army, the puppet soldiers were so frightened that they immediately shut their mouths and dared not make any sound.

"Fuck it, what are you yelling about, damn it..."

I could only curse the Japanese soldiers in my heart, and then continue to follow them reluctantly.

After a long time, the team finally arrived at the edge of Poyang Lake.

The troops stopped, Captain Yamazaki turned around, glanced coldly at the puppet troops in the rear, and began to give orders.

"Soldiers, the Imperial Army has issued an order to you! Poyang Lake is ahead. All you have to do is dig through the embankment, and you will receive a reward of ten dollars each!"

His voice echoed in the night air, carrying a hint of temptation.

After hearing what Yamazaki said, the puppet troops below began to get restless.

"Dig Poyang Lake? Is that even possible..."

Some puppet soldiers looked hesitant, feeling that something was not right.

"Ten dollars! Oh my God! Is there such a good thing?!"

Some puppet soldiers were blinded by money, with greed flashing in their eyes.

"Damn it, why don't they dig up the lake and flood it?"

Everyone was talking about it, and the voices were getting louder and louder. Some wanted to do it, but some were unwilling to do something that would harm others and not benefit themselves.

"If you dig up the dam and release the water, it will flood the entire downstream area! My land is still there!"

At this time, a burly puppet soldier stepped forward first and loudly opposed this matter, his face full of anger and worry.

"Really? My house is right downstream! If you dig it up, it'll be flooded!"

His words immediately resonated with most of the puppet army. Everyone began to oppose this matter and their emotions became increasingly agitated.

They threw the hoes and shovels in their hands to the ground, indicating that they were unwilling to do this.

"Bakayaro! What are you trying to do? Are you rebelling?"

Seeing these puppet soldiers throwing away the tools in their hands, the Japanese soldiers in front of them instantly became anxious. They were furious and cursed at them, their voices full of anger and threats.
