Someone from the National Government?

Lu Zhixian was obviously stunned.

Although he had known for a long time that the annihilation of the Seventh Brigade would definitely attract the attention of the National Government, he did not expect that the other party would act so quickly.

It has only been a few days.

The National Government sent someone directly?

"Captain!"

Chen Feng hurriedly explained: "Just now, someone claiming to be a special envoy of the National Government came to Qingfeng Village and said that he wanted to see you, the commander. As for his purpose, it is not clear yet! Deputy Commander Zhou felt that this matter was of great importance, so he immediately sent a telegram to the headquarters, asking you to make a decision."

"Who is the other party?"

"A major general of the Army General Staff, it is said that his name seems to be Du, Du Dehan!"

"Major General?"

Lu Zhixian was surprised to hear this.

You know, it is not easy for Shancheng to send people to Jin Province quickly. Even if the government intends to contact him, in most cases, it will appoint people from Jin Province to deal with it on the spot. Now it is said that a special commissioner of the major general level has come in person, which is enough to prove that the government attaches great importance to this matter.

"Captain!"

Chen Feng couldn't help asking, "Would you like to see him?"

Lu Zhixian pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Let Deputy Captain Zhou take the initiative to test the waters."

"Yes, Captain!"

Chen Feng immediately took the order and left.

"Captain!"

Wei Dayong took the uniform for Lu Zhixian and asked curiously, "Do you think the government is here to commend us? Our anti-Japanese war group won a victory before!"

"Of course, commendation is for sure!"

Lu Zhixian smiled and put on his clothes, and then said lightly, "But I'm afraid there are other purposes besides commendation."

...

Evening.

Heiyunzhai martial arts hall.

At this time, all the backbones of the regiment were present, including Zhou Weiguo and others who were guarding the forward base.

"Deputy Regiment Commander Zhou!"

Lu Zhixian glanced at everyone and said lightly: "Tell me about the visit from the government today."

"Yes, Regiment Commander!"

Zhou Weiguo immediately stood up solemnly, and said with a serious face: "This morning, Major General Du Dehan of the Army General Staff was commissioned by the government to come to Qingfeng Village from the mountain city. I followed the order of the regiment commander to personally entertain and test his tone. I initially learned that the special envoy had two purposes for this trip. One was naturally to commend the great victory achieved by our Anti-Japanese Regiment a few days ago outside Qingfeng Village, and the other was to represent the government to recruit our unit to join the government's battle sequence!"

Recruit us?

The government actually wants to recruit us too? !

Everyone present was stunned for a moment, followed by a burst of joy, but in the end their expressions became complicated again.

You have to know that most of them were just ordinary people in the past, but now even the government has sent a major general to recruit them!

How can they not be excited?

"I didn't expect that even the government is recruiting us now. It seems that our anti-Japanese group is indeed different from the past!"

"No! No! Why should we join the Black Cloud Village Anti-Japanese Group to fight the devils with the leader? I think it's totally wrong to surrender to the government!"

"Joining the battle sequence of the government, we can completely get rid of the nature of bandit armed forces! It will be absolutely legitimate to recruit soldiers in the future! The benefits are definitely extraordinary!"

"..."

Everyone was talking there, with mixed attitudes in their words.

For nearly ten minutes.

"Quiet!"

Lu Zhixian then pressed his hands.

Everyone looked at the main seat.

"Everyone!"

Lu Zhixian didn't say anything. He looked around and said in a deep voice: "Although this Black Cloud Village Anti-Japanese War Group was founded by me, Lu Zhixian, it is now a base for everyone to fight the devils together. Such a major matter naturally cannot be dictated by me alone. Now I want to hear everyone's opinions."

"Captain!"

Yang Zhihua said loudly: "Our Anti-Japanese War Group is fighting the devils here well. There is no need to join the National Government! In my opinion, just refuse this matter directly!"

"That's right!"

Sun Desheng nodded.

During this period, several people around also agreed.

"Captain!"

Chen Feng expressed a different opinion: "Although I came from the National Army, to be honest, I don't have a good impression of the current National Government, but this does not prevent me from thinking that temporarily joining the National Government is still of great benefit to our Anti-Japanese War Group."

"Tell me."

Lu Zhixian's expression did not change.

Chen Feng thought about it carefully, and then slowly said:

"First of all, if we officially join the battle sequence of the National Government, we will naturally get a lot of equipment and supplies. Although we are not short of weapons and equipment for the time being, various logistical supplies such as medicines, food, and backpacks are still quite short. Even if you have money, you may not be able to get many things."

"Secondly, although we have just won a great victory in Qingfeng Village, in the eyes of outsiders, it is just a bandit village. Even if it can temporarily attract many people to join the war of resistance, it will not be able to absorb those talented anti-Japanese patriots. This is also very unfavorable to our development! The number of troops was small before, but now with the continuous growth of power, only by pulling out the banner of the National Government, can we recruit troops and horses in the future, and can we quickly expand our strength;"

"Finally, our relationship with the Shanxi Suiyuan Army is not very good. Even if we don’t say that we are as hostile as fire and water, we will definitely never have any contact with each other. It can be said that as long as the identity of the regiment leader is exposed, the Shanxi Suiyuan Army will see that there is no hope of recruiting and will definitely settle the previous hatred with us. If so, if we join the National Government now, at least they dare not openly destroy the joint war of resistance! "

As soon as these words came out.

The few people who had just opposed were instantly speechless.

Even Sun Desheng, who had always had a good impression of the National Government, swallowed back the words that were on his lips and murmured: "It turns out that there are so many benefits to joining the National Government!"

"Deputy Commander Zhou!"

Lu Zhixian glanced to the side and said: "What do you think?"

"Commander!"

Zhou Weiguo was obviously well prepared. After a slight hesitation, he said seriously: "In general, I agree with Lao Chen's statement. Nowadays, everyone in the country, regardless of north and south, old and young, has the responsibility to defend the land and fight the war. All Chinese patriots have long abandoned their former hatreds and temporarily formed a united front for the war of resistance. Even the Red Army, which had fought so hard with the National Government, was reorganized into the Eighth Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army and was affiliated with the National Government's battle sequence. What's wrong with my Black Cloud Village Anti-Japanese War Group joining? If we can join the National Government's battle sequence, it will definitely be more beneficial than harmful, but-"

"Just what? "

"But we must ensure the independence of the troops!"

"I don't think this is difficult!"

At this time, Han Shaogong waved his hand and said, "Now the power of the government is all in the southwest. As the saying goes, the emperor is far away, and they obviously can't interfere with our actions. In my opinion, the Army General Staff has gone to great lengths to recruit us, at most to set an example, involving more devils in the battlefield behind enemy lines to relieve the pressure on the front battlefield!"
