Chapter 420 Recruiting Recruits
The sun was shining brightly, in an open space to the east of the county seat of Chudong County.

300 regiment members are participating in the selection of battalion commanders.

Dressed in military uniform, Liang Shanhao walked to a high platform.

The guards and regiment members saluted Liang Shanhao.

After returning the salute, Liang Shanhao raised his voice and shouted: "Brothers, I want to choose a battalion commander from among the 300 of you. Everyone has a chance, but it depends on your ability!"

Hearing this, the regiment members were all gearing up.

In the past, the members of the regiment did not even dare to think about it, but now the members of the regiment have the opportunity to run for the battalion commander!

The group members couldn't help but get excited!
After a pause, Liang Shanhao shouted: "Today is the first day of selecting battalion commanders. Have you seen the runway ahead? The first six people to run to the finish line will have the opportunity to enter the second round of selection! Chief Staff Tong, yes here we go!"

After agreeing, Chief of Staff Tong raised his voice and shouted: "Everyone listen to the order, enter the track for me, and prepare for the [-]-meter long-distance race!"

The regiments are all ready for the long-distance race.

Chief of Staff Tong shouted again: "Flare gun, send the signal!"

Soldiers from an independent regiment fired a flare into the sky.

Bang!
Hearing the gunshot, 300 regiment members jumped across the starting line and rushed forward.

For a while, smoke and dust billowed on the runway, except for the sound of running.

At first, the 300 regiment members just ran like a flock of sheep, but after 1000 meters, the team split.

A few of the group members used their milking energy at the beginning, throwing the group members behind them far away, and they will dominate for a while!
Shaking his head helplessly, Liang Shanhao shouted: "Hey! These stunned young men don't pay attention to the allocation of physical strength at all, they will soon be exhausted!"

Sighing slightly, Chief of Staff Tong shouted, "Yes! This is [-] meters, how can we do it without a bit of strategy? Use all your strength from the beginning, and don't even think about running to the finish line!"

While the two were talking, the regiments who ran at the front were overtaken one after another by the regiments who followed behind.

Several regiment members who were far ahead were not convinced, and gritted their teeth to catch up. Unfortunately, their physical strength was weak, and these regiment members could not catch up no matter what.

Because the strength of the group members was exhausted at the beginning!

But those Tuan Ding who have been maintaining a constant speed continue to run and compete.

Time is passing by every minute and every second, and the team members are also running forward step by step.

When entering the last 1000 meters, there are only 12 people chasing each other.

Everyone was out of breath, but no one would give up easily.

As long as you get the top six, you will have the opportunity to compete for the battalion commander.

The battalion commander is an official at any rate, but that is a temptation.

Soon, only 8 people entered the 500 meters.

After running 500 meters, two people must be out.

These 8 people were exhausted to the extreme, but no one was convinced, and they all went all out!
At this moment, among the eight people, a strong young man started to speed up and surpassed the six people in front of him in a row.

The beefy lad goes head-to-head with an old troupe.

When the finish line was reached, the old troupe was a full second slower than the strong guy.

It was because of this second that Liang Shanhao fell in love with this strong young man.

Looking at the six regiments who entered the second round of selection from a distance, Liang Shanhao shouted: "This young man has a lot of brains, and he saved his physical strength until the end! Chief of Staff Tong, find out what is the young man's name?"

Chief of Staff Tong responded, "Yes!"

……

While the selection of the battalion commander was in full swing, the recruitment of new recruits for the independent regiment also started at the gate of the Chudong county government office.

A soldier of the 36th Division beat the gong and shouted: "Folks, defending the land and resisting the war is everyone's responsibility!"

"Hurry up and join the army!"

"Being a soldier not only has enough food to eat, but also pays the army and settles down!"

Hearing the shouts and the sound of gongs, the people of Chudong County gathered towards the recruiting point of the Independence Regiment stationed in Chudong County.

A man with the appearance of a businessman shouted: "Sir! How much does this independent regiment get for a month?"

Stretching out a slap towards the common people who looked like businessmen, Duan Lian shouted: "Five oceans!"

The man exclaimed in amazement: "My darling, your independent group is really rich, five oceans is enough to cover my biscuit sales for two months!"

Duan Lian shouted: "That's right! My independent regiment is playing under the banner of the 36th Division of the Central Army, and the treatment can't be owed to you!"

The man shouted again: "Sir, I have another question. I don't know how much is the family allowance after I become a soldier?"

Stretching out two palms to the man, Duan Lian shouted: "Ten yuan, if you are the only child in the family, it will be 15 yuan!"

The man shouted: "Sir! I'm a soldier! But I have to tell my mother!"

Duan Lian shouted: "No problem, sign your name first!"

The man shouted: "Come on!"

The man signed his name: Li Youcai.

Duan Lian took 15 yuan Dayang from the table to the man, and Duan Lian shouted: "Take Dayang home and settle down for your old lady!"

The man shouted: "Sir, if you give the money so readily, aren't you afraid that it will never come back?"

With a calm face, Duan Lian shouted: "The welfare of my independent regiment is so good, you must be a fool if you don't come back, do you still want to lead the rank!"

The man shouted: "Sir, please don't worry, I will come to the barracks to report after I have settled my wife!"

Duan Lian shouted: "Go!"

Seeing the man applying for the recruitment, other common people in Chudong County flocked to him.

But after a while, Duan Lian recruited 599 new recruits.

Most of them are hunters and farmers from the surrounding villages.

Some ordinary people with poor physique desperately asked to join the army in order to get a generous military salary.

But Liang Shanhao said that the recruits recruited by Duan Lian must be of high quality, and they can't just make up numbers.

Therefore, Duan Lian naturally rejected these ordinary people who did not meet the requirements for conscription.

But the problem now is that Duan Lian is still short of one quota for the conscription task assigned by Liang Shanhao!

While hesitating, a strong man with beards walked towards Duan Lian.

The sound was like a bell, and the bearded man shouted: "Dare to ask this officer, are you still recruiting troops?"

Looking up and down the bearded man, Duan Lian shouted: "Trick! You look like a hunter in the mountains!"

The bearded man shouted: "Sir, you have good eyesight!"

Duan Lian asked in a deep voice, "How old are you this year?"

The bearded man shouted: "Two out of forty!"

Duan Lian shouted: "Our conscription notice says that only young people between the ages of 18 and 30 are recruited. You are too old!"

The bearded man shouted: "Sir, being a soldier doesn't just depend on age, the most important thing is ability!"

With raised eyebrows, Duan Lian shouted: "Oh! What skills do you have? Let me see!"

Slightly pondering, the bearded man called out: "Can you make a bet, sir, if I knock down the sparrow from the treetops, you will have me!"

Liang Shanhao also said that if the recruits have special skills, even if they are overage, Duan Lian can accept them exceptionally.

Looking at the sparrow on the treetop, Duan Lian shouted: "Without a good marksmanship, this sparrow is not so easy to shoot! Okay, let me give you a chance!"

The bearded man shouted, "Thank you, sir!"

Slightly raising the flintlock in his hand, the bearded man pulled the trigger.

Bang!
The sparrow uttered a mournful cry, and then fell from the treetop.

With a look of surprise on his face, Duan Lian shouted: "You are really a hunter, your marksmanship is so good!"

The bearded man shouted: "Then sir, can I be this soldier?"

Duan Lian shouted: "I want it, write down your name!"

Picking up a pen, the bearded man wrote down his name, which contained a character Yang, but because it was a pseudonym, Duan Lian didn't pay attention.
