Liang Jian: Commander, save some for me

Chapter 825

"Someone's dead!!!" A passerby couldn't help but scream after seeing this scene.

At once, many people came over.

"These beasts are actually dead?!"

"It's a good thing they died! Damn it, these bastards are allowed to show off their power in this town every day!"

"That's right, evil will be punished. Whoever did this, really got rid of a big evil for us."

Many people were talking about it and had no sympathy for the deaths of the Japanese and puppet soldiers. They had been oppressed by the other side for too long.

At this moment, seeing these beasts being killed, I felt extremely happy.

"Are all the Japanese in the military camp dead?!" some people asked.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

"They must have all died, otherwise, the bodies wouldn't be here." A man spoke up, believing that all the Japanese and puppet troops in the military camp were dead.

For a moment, a thought flashed through the minds of all the people, that is, the military camp is now empty.

At this time, a civilian suddenly ran quickly towards the military camp from the crowd, and other civilians also ran into the military camp when they saw this.

Anyway, the Japanese and puppet troops in the military camp have been dealt with, and the things inside are ownerless.

However, the people turned the military camp upside down but did not find any valuables such as money, not even a gun.

Many people felt a little disappointed. They had thought they could find some good things, but it seemed that all the treasures had been taken away by others.

"Damn it, even if I don't have money, I can still take the chairs!" A citizen picked up a few chairs and ran outside.

Seeing this, other civilians did the same. They took away all the wooden boards, tables, chairs, benches and cups for drinking water from the barracks.

All the usable things in the entire military camp were taken away by the people. After all, since they were here, they couldn't go back empty-handed.

.........

At this time, in the woods.

Li Jin also led the soldiers and started walking towards the base.

"I didn't expect that I could loot hundreds of dollars from this Japanese military camp. These Japanese are really good at making money." He Ming said as he walked.

"Otherwise why would they call us little devils?" Qin Yuanxin said with a smile.

"Battalion Commander, where is our base?!" He Ming changed the subject. He then realized that he had been so happy these days that he forgot to ask Xu Qingfeng where the base had moved to.

"Tianli Mountains." Li Jin replied.

"Where is the Tianli Mountains?!" Qin Yuanxin asked.

“You’ll know when you get there.” Li Jin smiled. Now they are only a few dozen miles away from the Tianli Mountains. They can reach the Tianli Mountains in the afternoon and reach the base in two or three days.

Along the way, the soldiers were talking and laughing.

Three days later, at around nine in the morning, Li Jin brought He Ming and others to a location about three kilometers away from the base. The young soldier on guard came out first.

"Platoon leader, Squad Leader Qin! Why are you here?!" The young soldier was very happy to see the two of them. They hadn't seen each other for nearly a year.

"Luo Xiaowu, you haven't changed much." He Ming recognized the other party at the first moment. He was very happy to see the soldiers from his own platoon.

"Hehe, Platoon Leader, you haven't changed much. You're still as handsome and dashing as before!" Luo Xiaowu said with a smile.

"After a year, you've become so smooth-talking." He Ming smiled when he was praised.

"Are the others okay?!" He Ming asked.

"Well, I'm fine. What's more, I'm the squad leader now." Luo Xiaowu couldn't help but feel proud when he said the latter part.

"Not bad, there has been progress." He Ming patted Luo Xiaowu on the shoulder.

"Platoon leader, why are you here? Don't you need to protect people?!" Luo Xiaowu asked. He remembered that the platoon leader and the others were going to protect the boss and the brigade commander, so why did they suddenly come back?

"They no longer need our protection, so we followed the battalion commander back." He Ming replied.

"What?! That's great, we can fight the Japanese together again." Luo Xiaowu was very happy. He had long wanted to continue fighting the Japanese with the platoon leader. Unexpectedly, this wish came true today.

"Yeah." He Ming also nodded, with a smile on his face.

"Okay, okay, let's go back to the base first. We'll have plenty of time to talk later." Li Jin interrupted them while they were reminiscing about the past. He knew that they still had a lot to say, but he still took them to see Xu Qingfeng and the others first.

"Okay." He Ming nodded, still feeling a little unsatisfied, but also knowing that now was not the time to reminisce.

Li Jin took out the walkie-talkie and contacted Xu Qingfeng.

"Why did you come back just now?! You didn't go to kill the Japanese, did you?! Didn't I tell you not to cause trouble?!" Xu Qingfeng's voice came from the intercom, and he immediately guessed that Li Jin must have gone to cause trouble after coming back a day later.

"Haha, you really can't hide anything. I have a surprise for you. Hurry up and ask a few company commanders to gather in the classroom." Li Jin laughed twice and quickly changed the subject to prevent Xu Qingfeng from scolding him again.

"Okay, I'll call them right away." Xu Qingfeng responded.

"Battalion commander, you really know how to pick a place. Using this place as a base is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If the Japanese come, we can fight back and destroy them with fewer people." Qin Yuanxin was full of admiration.

"Of course. Otherwise, do you think anyone can be a battalion commander?" He Ming continued, praising Li Jin at the same time.

"This place is only six miles away from the base. There are more than 2,000 people here, 1,000 of whom are new recruits. They have some combat effectiveness, but no combat experience..." Li Jin talked to a few people about the situation of the base as they walked.

When they returned to the company's base, many soldiers recognized He Ming, Qin Yuanxin and other soldiers.

"I seem to be dazzled when I see Platoon Leader He and Squad Leader Qin and others!" A soldier in the barracks rubbed his eyes and looked at He Ming and others who walked into the barracks.

"It's either my eyes are blurring or they are coming!" said the soldier next to him, and he quickly ran over to He Ming and the others.

"Platoon Leader He, long time no see." The soldier's face was filled with smiles.

"It's been a while since we last met." He Ming responded.

"You are worried about us, so you came back to see us, but why are all of you back? Don't you need to protect the boss?!" The soldiers were puzzled, thinking that He Ming came back to see them, but they also felt that this was not the case. After all, if they were to come back, not all of them would come back.

"You won't need our protection anymore. We can fight side by side again." He Ming said.

"Is this true?! Don't lie to me, is the battalion commander real?!" The soldier looked at Li Jin.

"It's true. Okay, okay, we can talk about it later." Li Jin led He Ming and the others towards the classroom.

When Li Jin and others walked into the classroom, Liu Changshun, Xu Qingfeng and others saw the soldiers behind He Ming and Qin Yuanxin. They were all stunned and couldn't quite believe what they saw.

"Deputy company commander, deputy battalion commander!" He Ming saluted Xu Qingfeng immediately, and Qin Yuanxin and the soldiers behind him also saluted Xu Qingfeng immediately. "Well, welcome back." Xu Qingfeng nodded, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Old Liu, Old Zhao, Old Jiang...what's going on with you? Your old comrade-in-arms is back, don't you even bother to say hello?!" He Ming looked at Liu Changshun and the others at this time, deliberately acting unhappy!
"Damn it, Old He, you're finally back!" Liu Changshun stood up, ran to He Ming first, and gave He Ming a bear hug.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't be like this. I don't like men." He Ming said with disgust.

"Fuck you, I don't like men either." Liu Changshun quickly let go of He Ming. At this time, the others also stood up and came over.

"Old He, we miss you so much." Zhao Ming walked over and punched He Ming in the chest.

"Serious injury, pay me quickly!" He Ming deliberately covered his chest.

"Get lost! You're not a woman. You got seriously injured by just one punch. Are you that precious?" Zhao Ming rolled his eyes and said unhappily.

“Hahahaha…” Everyone burst into laughter after hearing this.

Other soldiers also found seats in the classroom and sat down.

While they were reminiscing about the past, Xu Qingfeng also came to Li Jin.

"Is this the surprise you were talking about?!" Xu Qingfeng said.

"Just tell me if it's a surprise enough." Li Jin saw the smile on his face and knew that Xu Qingfeng was very happy to see He Ming and the others come back.

"Well, it's a bit surprising. The people have been trained, right?!" Xu Qingfeng also guessed that He Ming and the others were able to come back. It was likely that the soldiers had already been trained, so they didn't need He Ming and the others' protection.

"Yes, so I brought them back." Li Jin nodded.

"How is the combat effectiveness of those trained soldiers?!" Xu Qingfeng asked.

"They are no worse than our previous special operations company. They are all carefully selected veterans, and each soldier has some rich combat experience." Li Jin commented.

When he went to the headquarters, he met those soldiers and tested them, so he knew the fighting effectiveness of those soldiers.

"That's good." Xu Qingfeng nodded with satisfaction, "Wait, are you going to the headquarters to meet the boss and others?!"

Then he realized that Li Jin must have gone to the headquarters, so he brought He Ming and the others back.

"Yes, the brigade commander took me there." Li Jin then told Xu Qingfeng about the people he was going to meet at the headquarters.

"You kid, now you've shown your face in front of those big shots, don't get proud just because you're praised a few times." Xu Qingfeng reminded. He could see that Li Jin had a smug look on his face when he said this. This was the first time he saw Li Jin with such an asking-for-a-punch expression.

"How is that possible? Am I the kind of person who gets carried away by just a few compliments?" Li Jin said unconvinced, but he couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth.

To be honest, Li Jin was really happy to be praised at that time. How could he not be happy to be praised by these big shots in turn?

"It wasn't like this before. Now, it's hard to say." Xu Qingfeng said after a moment of hesitation, but he could understand.

"The reason they were able to come back this time was actually because of the brigade commander." Xu Qingfeng expressed his guess. Given the importance the brigade commander attached to Li Jin, it was impossible for him not to know about the future development of the special operations battalion.

So talents are urgently needed, and He Ming and others are just the right people to come back.

"Old Xu, your brain is really quick." Li Jin praised. He was a little impressed by Xu Qingfeng for being able to think of this.

"Don't give me that. I won't fall for it." Xu Qingfeng didn't take Li Jin's compliments seriously.

"Their return can indeed help us solve a lot of problems. I was worried about the selection of military cadres before, but now I don't have to worry about it anymore." Xu Qingfeng said with a smile.

Although the special operations battalion has no shortage of military cadres capable of fighting, generally speaking, the military cadres who will be assigned later are still somewhat inexperienced and need to be trained.

But now that He Ming and the others are back, a lot of training time can be saved.

"That's true." Li Jin nodded.

"He Ming is still a platoon leader, it's time for him to be promoted," Xu Qingfeng reminded.

"I have already made plans for this. We will rebuild the Eighth Company with He Ming as the company commander and Qin Yuanxin as the deputy company commander." Li Jin expressed his plan.

"It's just right." Xu Qingfeng nodded, agreeing with Li Jin's idea.

"Let's stop reminiscing here for now. I have something to say." Li Jin came to the podium and interrupted He Ming and the others' reminiscing.

Only then did everyone quiet down!

"After He Ming and the others come back, they will never leave again." Li Jin said.

After hearing Li Jin's words, everyone was very happy.

"Then, I have something to announce. I plan to form an 8th Company, with He Ming as the company commander and Qin Yuanxin as the deputy company commander. What do you think?!" Li Jin looked at everyone and announced his decision.

"no problem."

"Very good."

"Old He has been away from the special operations company for so long, and he finally came back. It's time for him to be promoted."

Everyone spoke up, and none of them disagreed at all. They all thought that He Ming should be promoted.

"Okay, then it's settled. However, to form the Eighth Company, we need more manpower. Each of your companies will select 20 new recruits to form the Eighth Company. Is that okay with you?!" Li Jin continued.

"No." Everyone shook their heads. They felt it was just right.

"He Ming, Qin Yuanxin, write down the list of platoon leaders and squad leaders you have selected for me tomorrow." Li Jin looked at the two of them and gave them instructions.

He did not plan to choose the squad leader of the Eighth Company himself, but would let He Ming and Qin Yuanxin choose.

"Yes!" The two of them nodded in agreement.

"As for the Eighth Company's base, you can choose a place by yourselves. Once you've chosen a good place, have the soldiers build houses. It will be the Eighth Company's base in the future." Li Jin continued.

Every company has a base, and although the Eighth Company is newly formed, it cannot be without one.

"I understand." He Ming responded.

"Okay, you guys continue reminiscing about the past. Other soldiers, you can go find other old comrades to reminisce about the past." Li Jin looked at the other soldiers again.

The soldiers were very happy to hear this, as they had long wanted to chat with their old comrades.

"But remember, don't say what you shouldn't say, understand?" Li Jin reminded the soldiers to pay attention to the confidentiality regulations and not leak it out to avoid danger.

"Understood!" the soldiers answered loudly.

"Okay, let's go." Li Jin waved his hand.

At once, the soldiers rushed out. They were going to visit their old comrades. As for where to live, they did not need to worry about that at all.
