"Why can't it work? The Eighth Route Army is a team that is good for us people. Join them, what's wrong with it!" Zhang Xinyu said.

"Sister, those who join the Eighth Route Army will die! Besides, Eighth Road is so poor that they don't even have enough to eat. Where are they going? Are they suffering?" Zhang Mazi said seriously.

Hearing this, Zhang Xinyu glanced at Zhang Mazi with contempt and said, "It's as if you can eat enough at home.
Moreover, I would rather die vigorously on the battlefield!And I don't want to live like you, a wimp, for the rest of my life! "

"Sister, you!" Zhang Mazi was stunned. Is this still his sister?
"Brother, today I just want to say, are you going to participate in the Eighth Route? If you don't, then I will go by myself! From now on, we will sever the relationship between brother and sister!" Zhang Xinyu shouted.

"What? You want to sever brother-sister relationship with me?" Zhang Mazi felt that all his strength had been drained, and he sat down staggeringly.

Seeing Zhang Mazi like this, Zhang Xinyu's heart ached, but there was nothing she could do. Her brother was too weak, so it was impossible not to force him.

"Yes, it is to sever the brother-sister relationship! Let me say it again, are you going to participate in the Eighth Road? If not, I will go tomorrow by myself! From now on, I will never have your brother!" Zhang Xinyu said loudly.

"Go! Why don't I go! Don't sever brother-sister relationship with me!" Zhang Mazi shouted hastily.

Hearing this, Zhang Xinyu breathed a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that her brother's brain would have a twitch and he would not be able to speak.

"Brother, you don't know me too well, how can I sever brother and sister relationship with you." Zhang Xinyu said.

"Okay! You are forcing your brother!" Zhang Mazi responded, but there was no way, the thief ship had already boarded!

Early the next morning, Zhang Xinyu packed her bags happily. In fact, there was nothing to pack, just a few clothes and some dry food.

But Zhang Mazi was dawdling, there was no way, he was cowardly.

This is a participant in the Eighth Route, who wants to fight the little devil, what if he accidentally ascends?Who will take care of my sister.

"Brother, you should hurry up. If it's too late, they might not accept you anymore." Zhang Xinyu urged.

"I know, I know." Zhang Mazi replied impatiently. He couldn't understand why his sister was so excited?

Why are the personalities of the two brothers and sisters so different? Did the younger sister pick it up?

Unwilling to pack up their things, Zhang Mazi and Zhang Xinyu went out.

After walking for a while, Zhang Mazi said: "Sister, have you found out clearly whether the Eighth Route Army accepts people? When we go there, others will not accept them. How embarrassing this is."

Zhang Xinyu glanced at Zhang Mazi, "Don't worry, I've found out clearly, the eight-way recruiter, by the way, brother, you won't be, are you scared?"

"Who, who's scared." Zhang Mazi refused to accept it, "I'm worried that I'll make the trip for nothing. This is to avoid unnecessary trouble. What do you know?"

"Don't talk nonsense if you're not cowardly, just follow me." Zhang Xinyu said and continued on his way.

.........

At the same time, Liu Family Village.

Li Jin is currently leading the warrior gate to help others build a pigsty at the head of the village.

For the most time, Li Jin has been helping the people, repairing houses for the people from time to time, or building pigpens, and even delivering food to some people who can't even eat.

These days, the common people are more and more grateful to the Eighth Route Army. There are even women who independently form the Women's Rescue Association to help sew clothes and make straw sandals for the Eighth Route soldiers.

In addition to helping Liujia Village, Li Jin also asked soldiers from other base areas to help other villages, which made the Eighth Road's reputation here even better, and many young people wanted to join the Eighth Road.

It's a pity that Li Jin has already recruited enough people, and there is no need to recruit more people. This makes many young people feel sorry for them, thinking that they came a step late, otherwise they can still protect their families and the country.

But looking at these young people, Li Jin recommended them to go to Sunjia Village, which was still recruiting people.

"Li Battalion Commander, drink some water." An old man came to Li Jin with a bucket of water.

"Mr. Liu, I can do it by myself. You are quite old, please sit down and rest." Li Jin quickly helped the old man to sit under a tree not far away.

"Well, the Eighth Route Army is better. Unlike the National Army, in addition to asking us for people, they also ask us for food.

As a result, there were no people and no food, just like you, not only helping us with work, but also sending us food, you are good people. "Mr. Liu said with a sigh.

In the past, when the national army came to them, conscription was compulsory. Every household had to join the army, and they also had to donate food.
As a result, those young men who were conscripted basically died in battle, and they couldn't even find their bodies.

But now that the Eighth Route Army has come, the recruitment is voluntary, and they help them for free, and they will also help people with family difficulties from time to time.

With this comparison, Mr. Liu felt that his eye sockets were a little moist. The child in the past didn't meet a good army.

"This is what our Eighth Route Army should do, to help the people and let them live a good life. This has been the purpose of our Eighth Route Army since its establishment." Li Jin said with a smile.

"Good boy." Mr. Liu patted Li Jin on the shoulder very hard.

"You rest and continue working." Li Jin said, and continued to help build the pigsty.

At noon, Mr. Liu asked Li Jin and the others to go eat, but Li Jin refused to go and said, "It's our duty to help you with the work. Besides, we have brought dry food and we can't eat your food."

In this regard, Mr. Liu was also very helpless. After finishing his work, Li Jin returned to his residence.

.........

In the woods a few miles away from Liujia Village.

A group of seventeen or eighteen-year-old warriors were sitting shirtless under a tree eating.

Each of them was sweating profusely.

A bowl of rice with some pickles, two steamed buns, and a bowl of broth. This is their lunch. Although it is not much, it is much better than those who can't even afford rice, let alone having broth to drink. .

"Captain Liu, didn't you say that the eight roads are very poor and can't even afford food, but why can we eat so well every day? We also eat three meals a day, is the rumor wrong?" A soldier ate Steamed Bun said to the person next to him.

He used to hear people say that the Eighth Road is very poor, often can't even afford food, and participating in the Eighth Road is suffering, but after he came here, he almost had three meals a day, and he could still eat meat every now and then.

In his opinion, this is not suffering, this is simply happiness.

"I don't know." Liu Yuan shook his head and said, "Although the food is good, our training is also very hard. Several times I felt that I couldn't make it through."

Although the food is good, the training here is too hard. I practice to death almost every day, and I have to break through my limit every time.

"Well, it's really hard." The soldier nodded.

Li Jin sat on a rock halfway up the mountain to eat. He looked at the soldiers at the foot of the mountain and sighed in his heart. These were his main troops fighting against the Japanese.

"Battalion Commander." At this time, Xu Qingfeng also ran up.

"Have you eaten?" Li Jin handed Xu Qingfeng a steamed bun.

"No, I've eaten." Xu Qingfeng waved his hand and said.

"What, something happened?" Li Jin asked.

"I don't have anything to deal with, so I came to see how your training is going?" Xu Qingfeng said. He didn't have much to deal with right now, so he came over to take a look.

Li Jin nodded and said nothing more.

"I don't know how many of these new recruits will survive." Xu Qingfeng sighed.

"So try to make the cooperation between them better as much as possible." Li Jin said.

He couldn't make the recruits as strong as the fighters of the special warfare battalion, he could only make the recruits cooperate better with each other.

In the age of war, life is precarious. No one can guarantee that they will survive tomorrow, and they don't know which direction the next bullet will come from and take away their life!
This is the current situation of this era, so what does it mean to pay a price to obtain powerful power?
Compared with those soldiers who have died in battle, they still have time to train and gain strength.

Their current situation is much better than other places. Many soldiers went to the battlefield with guns, and they have not been trained!
Many people just know how to shoot. In most cases, they use knives to fight devils. Soldiers die every day.

The battalion commander is dead, the battalion commander is dead, and the company commander is on, until the last person dies!
Compared to those fighters, they are really much better!
If you don't train hard, are you worthy of those dead soldiers? !
Xu Qingfeng took a deep breath and said, "I see."

"Our time is running out." Li Jin said, remembering something again, and asked: "How long will the money we bring be enough?"

These days, training the soldiers cost a lot of money. Although he brought a lot of money, he still couldn't help asking.

"According to the current consumption, the money we brought is probably enough for about two months. If we use that money, we can last longer." Xu Qingfeng said.

There are a lot of people recruited now, so a lot of money has been spent.

"No! That money can't be moved!" Li Jin directly refused. The money he saved was the pension he planned to use for the soldiers who died in the future!Never move!

"Then we can only support it for two months, unless we reduce consumption." Xu Qingfeng said, if they can't use the money, their supplies won't last long.

Li Jin shook his head, he did not agree to continue to reduce consumption, and he was trying to figure out a way to deal with supplies.

.........

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Xinyu and Zhang Mazi came to a location about three miles away from Liujia Village, and they were stopped by two Eighth Route soldiers.

"Stop! Who are you!" one of the soldiers asked.

"Don't shoot, we are here to participate in the Eighth Route Army!" Zhang Mazi said quickly, his legs weak from fear.

"Join the Eighth Route Army?" The soldier glanced at the two men and felt that there was no danger to them, so he put away his gun.

"Stay here. I'll take them to see Deputy Battalion Commander Xu." After telling the soldiers around him, another soldier led Zhang Mazi and the others into the village.

Zhang Mazi looked around vigilantly, fearing that someone would shoot him down, but Zhang Xinyu was not so vigilant, and instead looked around curiously.

They were silent all the way, and soon they arrived at the headquarters.

"You guys wait here, I'll go in and report." After telling the two men, the soldier opened the door and walked into the headquarters.

"Sister, why don't we leave." Zhang Mazi was still timid.

"Brother, you've come here now, is it interesting for you to retreat now?" Zhang Xinyu was unhappy.

"Oh, no matter what you say, let's go. We won't join the Eighth Route Army anymore. Be obedient." Zhang Mazi took Zhang Xinyu's hand and planned to leave.

But Zhang Xinyu didn't move at all, and even shook off Zhang Mazi's hand, staring at Zhang Mazi, she said angrily: "Brother, do you want me to look down on you for the rest of my life?!"

"I, I..." Zhang Mazi dodged his eyes, not daring to look into his sister's eyes.

At this time, the soldier also came out.

"How is it?" Zhang Xinyu asked quickly.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Xu is not here. I think he's off to train the soldiers. I'll take you to see Company Commander Liu." The soldier said. Company Commander Liu had already returned yesterday and was sent to Mr. Liu to help with work today.

Normally, Xu Qingfeng could be seen at this time, but today, he probably went to train soldiers.

Without further ado, the soldiers soon took them to Mr. Liu's house.

The door was not closed and they entered Mr. Liu's house directly.

"Liu Company Commander." When he saw Liu Changshun moving rocks, the soldier shouted and ran towards Liu Changshun.

"Huh? What's going on?" Liu Changshun was sweating profusely. When he saw Zhang Xinyu and Zhang Mazi, he immediately understood what was going on.

He recognized Liu Changshun at the first sight, he was a gambler, such a person, Liu Changshun was not willing to let him join.

"These two want to join us," said the warrior.

"Okay, go and do your work." Liu Changshun asked the soldiers to return to their posts first.

"You guys want to join the Eighth Route?" Liu Changshun asked when he came in front of the two.

"Yeah." Zhang Xinyu nodded quickly.

"Why join the Eighth Route Army?" Liu Changshun asked.

"Defend the family and the country!" Zhang Xinyu said loudly.

"I was forced here." Zhang Mazi muttered quietly.

Liu Changshun was happy and said: "It's okay for him to join the Eighth Route Army, but you don't need to."

"What do you mean? You look down on me?!" Zhang Xinyu said angrily.

"I don't mean to look down on you," Liu Changshun shook his head.

"Then why aren't you letting me join the Eighth Route Army?!" Zhang Xinyu asked.

"We haven't killed all our men! We will never let women go to the battlefield to fight!" Liu Changshun said.

"You are discriminating! Discriminating against women!" Zhang Xinyu shouted.

"Whatever you say." Liu Changshun did not defend himself.

"You!!!" Zhang Xinyu gritted her teeth angrily.

"Also, we have recruited enough people now, and we are no longer recruiting people." Liu Changshun said.

"No more hiring?" Zhang Mazi smiled, holding his sister's hand and planning to walk out, but Zhang Xinyu shook off his hand again.

"I said sister, they don't want us, let's go home." Zhang Mazi persuaded him earnestly, he didn't want to die.

"I won't leave! If he doesn't accept us, I won't leave even if I die!" Zhang Xinyu gritted his teeth.

"No, what's going on with you? They don't want us, so why don't we bother them by being shameless here?" Zhang Mazi continued to persuade, knowing that his sister's temper was getting worse. (End of chapter)
