"Look at them. One unit set out from eastern Shandong Province, and another flew in from Southeast Asia. The two units have never met before, but when faced with danger, they turned their backs on each other like brothers, without hesitation. Our various units are all around Nanjing. Which army would dare to do that?"

Some officers around immediately noticed the clues. To be honest, they were indeed envious in their hearts. The only two branches within an army that could do this were probably the people of the 72nd Army.

Seeing that there was no profit to be made, the colonel of the theater command could only leave a few harsh words and then leave in disgrace with his men. Otherwise, if he stayed, he might get beaten up, as these people did not hold back when beating him.

Judging from the current situation, you have no advantage at all. If there is a conflict later, you will be the one looking for trouble.

In the end, the case was brought to the Military Commission. Do you think that Li Shaoyi is someone you can easily mess with?

"Commander Guo, thank goodness you arrived in time. If you had come any later, these guys would have seen that we were outnumbered and might have started to rob us. Right now, the troops surrounding Jinling are like hungry wolves."

Xie Guangzhi wiped the sweat from his forehead. All the people escorting the vehicle just now added up to more than 200 people. If a fight really broke out, they would definitely have to shoot. Pu Jiang was fighting hard at this time. If something like this happened in the rear, even if he could save the entire vehicle's ammunition, he would probably be brought to a military court for improper handling.

"Those guys were clearly trying to take advantage of us. It's our fault for not coming earlier. We're not from Jinling, so we got lost along the way. We're really sorry. We quickly got off the train and drove the weapons back. If we continued to stay at Jinling Railway Station, we would have been very conspicuous."

As Guo Shaoqiu spoke, he directed his men to unload the truck quickly. These weapons were exactly the same as those they used in Southeast Asia, so they were not unfamiliar at all. These were brand new weapons shipped from the north.

"Commander Guo is right. When we arrived, our commander told us to follow Commander Guo's troops into battle. This is part of our training. Commander Guo, please include us in the battle sequence."

Xie Guangzhi and his men are a reorganized infantry company, and they have their own weapons and equipment on this vehicle. When Ma Leizi sent them here, he gave the order to send the weapons to Nanjing, and you just need to follow the Overseas Chinese Group to fight together.

"That's great. Don't be shy. I'm from our army too. I'm not an overseas Chinese from Southeast Asia. Fifteen percent of our overseas Chinese volunteer group are from mainland China. They just came over to support the military construction there a while ago. We also need our mainland troops to lead the way."

After hearing what Captain Guo said, Xie Guangzhi became even happier. He was afraid that the members of the Overseas Chinese Volunteer Corps were all highly educated and would look down on us peasants.

It took two hours to unload every bullet on the military train. Then, under the leadership of Captain Guo, 25 tanks, more than 70 armored vehicles, and more than 100 trucks slowly drove out from Jinling Railway Station.

"Put this on the air."

There was a truck in front of the convoy carrying a loud speaker, and there was another one in the back, and they also brought recordings from the north.

"I, Li Shaoyi, Commander of the 72nd Army, am fully aware of the importance of the Pujiang battlefield. I have specially dispatched the Southeast Asian Chinese Volunteer Corps to participate in the Pujiang battle. Over 100,000 troops of our 72nd Army are now on high alert in the north, awaiting the order from the National Government's Military Commission to march fully towards Pujiang to defend it and East China!"

When Li Shaoyi's voice was heard in the streets of Nanjing, many people immediately understood why the 72nd Army did not send troops south, but instead went to great lengths to transport a Chinese volunteer group from Southeast Asia.

The Nanjing National Government also organized a group of people to spread rumors in society, saying that Li Shaoyi wanted to preserve his own strength and would only send troops to defend his own territory.

Pujiang is not Li's territory, so he would never send troops to Pujiang to fight.

Now that the recording has been played, it has quickly spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and everyone knows that the Nanjing National Government was the one who obstructed it.

Commander Li of the 72nd Army has already said that as long as the Military Commission issues a combat order, hundreds of thousands of troops will immediately move south.

After hearing the broadcast, reporters from all walks of life recorded it word for word, and they even got the film of the recording.

Li Shaoyi's voice also sounded on the radio, which made the Nanjing National Government very passive.

Of course, this is also true. Even if they try to explain it, they can't find a reason for it at the moment.

The Nanjing Nationalist Government didn't know how to deal with this matter, so they simply pretended to be dead. It was just a recording. Could they really arrest all of us?

The Ministry of Military Affairs only issued one order, that is, the weapons of the Overseas Chinese Volunteer Corps should be collected and sent to Nanjing as soon as possible after arrival. They had only one goal, which was Luodian.

The Battle of Luodian is known as the meat grinder in the Battle of Shanghai, and a large number of troops have been deployed to fight.

The 36th Division rushed into the Luodian Campaign at lightning speed, and its casualties have reached as high as a quarter.

According to the Military Commission, you are going to join the war, right? Then we will give you the toughest challenge and see how you perform on the battlefield.

The two regular divisions of the Japanese army, the 3rd and 11th Divisions, were responsible for the attack on Luodian.

Their strength should not be underestimated. After reassembly, they increased the proportion of their respective artillery and even had a tank unit. This caused us to suffer considerable losses in personnel. However, after looking at some data on the battlefield, Captain Guo did not think that the problem was serious.

Guo Shaoqiu's reinforced regiment, with a total of more than 5,000 people, is equipped with an artillery company and an armored company. In addition, there is also a mobile company composed entirely of jeeps.

The three infantry companies that came from the north to escort arms, with a total of more than a thousand people, all belonged to Captain Guo's volunteer regiment.

So at this moment, Lao Guo’s subordinates were not 5,000 people, but nearly 7,000 people.

This is also the reason why he is very confident. The three infantry companies coming from the north, although wearing the uniforms of the security corps, their training results are no less than those of the regular army. They are considered the absolute elite in the security corps. How could Ma Leizi send cowards to him?

The Overseas Chinese Volunteer Corps sets out to resist the Japanese invaders and fight in Songhu!
