Zhou Weiguo looked at Shen Quan and said, "Captain Shen, you and I are both straightforward people, so if I have anything to say, I'll just say it."
"As far as I know, your regiment is located far away from Feihu Ridge. Commander Shen's visit to Feihu Ridge this time is definitely not as simple as visiting me, right?"
Chen Quan smiled and said: "Since you have said everything for this reason, then I will have something to say directly."
"Now is the time of national crisis. As the sons and daughters of Daxia, we should work together to drive out the Tartars. I also know that Brother Zhou, you were the commander of the Eighth Route Army in Hutou Mountain. If it weren't for being framed, you wouldn't have fallen. Come here and be a bandit.
The past cannot be forgotten, let's talk about the present. I sincerely invite you, Brother Zhou, to join the new regiment and join forces with me to fight the Japanese. I wonder what Brother Zhou wants? "
"As for the treatment, brother Zhou, don't worry. As long as you join the new regiment, the position of deputy commander will definitely be yours. I believe that with brother Zhou's military wisdom, he will become a well-known figure in northwest Shanxi in a short time."
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked!
Even Zhou Weiguo couldn't sit still. No one in the entire northwest of Shanxi knew the identities of their group.
Then how did Shen Quan know that Zhou Weiguo was the leader of the Hutou Mountain Independent Regiment before he became a bandit?
This alone was enough to shock Zhou Weiguo.
"How did Commander Shen know the identities of us people?" Zhou Weiguo asked tentatively, leaning slightly.
"Brother Zhou, don't worry. I have no ill intentions. It's just that before coming to Feihuling, the intelligence department of my new regiment did some investigations. What I said just now is just a guess."
As a time-traveler, Shen Quan naturally couldn't tell Zhou Weiguo that these things he knew through TV plots before time-traveling, so he could only give up a random excuse and get over it.
The scene quickly fell silent!
The so-called bandits in Feihuling were all Eighth Route soldiers brought by Zhou Weiguo from the Hutou Mountain Independent Regiment. Now Shen Quan's invitation has completely touched their heartstrings.
No one wants to be a bandit all his life, so he would be happy if he could wear the Eighth Route Army uniform again.
However, there are also some soldiers who have become accustomed to the life of bandits and just want to continue to live in Feihuling.
In the end, everyone's eyes fell on Zhou Weiguo.
Zhou Weiguo is their boss and their original regiment leader. They only listen to Zhou Weiguo whether they want to join the Eighth Route Army again.
However, before Zhou Weiguo could speak, Zhao Jie on the side said: "Master, can't we join the Eighth Route Army?"
The collection process that originally seemed to be advancing in an orderly manner was stopped because of Zhao Jie's words.
"Master, we left Hutoushan and took these brothers away. According to the rules and regulations, we have already violated military law. If we put on the Eighth Route Army uniforms again and are tracked down by our superiors in the future, everyone will not be able to escape punishment. .”
"Besides, although we are bandits now, we have never done anything bad. Even if the little devil is beaten away in the future, we will not be spurned by the people."
These words completely reminded the shaken Zhou Weiguo, and the Juyi Hall fell into silence again.
After leaning for a moment, Zhou Weiguo said: "Captain Shen, what my brother said is not unreasonable. I took these brothers from the Hutou Mountain Independent Regiment. If the organization tracks them down in the future, they will definitely not be able to escape punishment. .
To be honest, I admire your new regiment for winning several battles one after another and thwarting the arrogance of the little devils. But now, for the sake of the future of the brothers, I am unwilling to accept your adaptation. "
Zhou Weiguo is a top military genius!
There is no doubt about it.
As a time traveler, Shen Quan is very familiar with the TV plot of Snow Leopard. Zhou Weiguo went to the German Military Academy to study when he was young. After returning to China, he became a regiment leader in the national army and made outstanding achievements.
If such a person joins the new group, it will definitely bring the strength of the entire group to a new level.
Shen Quan continued calmly: "Brother Zhou, now that the Japs are getting more and more rampant, I still hope to join forces with you to fight against the Japs.
You keep saying that you want to find a future for your brothers, but you also have to know in your heart that sooner or later the little devils will be beaten out, and then you will become a hidden danger in the hearts of the people.
No matter whether you have done bad things or not, in the eyes of the people, you are just bandits, and the country will definitely destroy you for the sake of long-term stability.
Although you have strong troops and strong horses, and you still occupy a dangerous terrain, if our army is determined to directly send 20,000 people to attack and use artillery shells to level Feihu Ridge, by then it will be too late for Brother Zhou to regret it. "
Everything Shen Quan said was reasonable, and Zhou Weiguo had no way to refute it.
The scene fell into silence again.
People's hearts have been like this since ancient times. Even if Zhou Weiguo and his gang never do bad things in their lives, their status is like bandits in the eyes of the people.
If you are a bandit, the country will not let you live for a long time!
Hearing this, Zhao Jie continued to persuade: "Master, you have to think carefully about this matter. If you really join the new group, the lives of these brothers will be in the hands of the Eighth Route Army.
We are living very well in Feihuling now. There were many forces trying to win over us before. Didn’t you reject them all? It is best for us not to offend anyone at this time. "
Zhou Weiguo looked at Xu Hu, the second master, and said, "Huzi, what do you think?"
Xu Hu touched his head and smiled: "Brother, I will listen to you!"
"Where are the brothers?"
"It all depends on the master's arrangements!"
The responses were unusually uniform, except for Zhao Jie.
Shen Quan was surprised. According to the plot of Snow Leopard, Zhao Jie joined the Eighth Route Army earlier than Zhou Weiguo. Even if he left the Hutoushan Independent Group, his personal beliefs shouldn't change so quickly?
Could it be said that Zhao Jie in this world has changed?
For a moment, Shen Quan couldn't tell whether Zhao Jie was good or bad.
After a moment of silence, Zhou Weiguo said: "Captain Shen, I have to seriously consider the matter of recruitment. After all, I represent hundreds of brothers in Feihu Ridge, and I want to think more about them."
Chen Quan smiled and said: "Brother Zhou, don't worry too much, you are also a hot-blooded man from Daxia, and a good man should go into battle to kill the enemy.
I remember your father once said, "When the Japanese pirates are wiped out, my son will return home!" "
Zhou Weiguo was even more shocked when he heard Shen Quan say what his father had said.
From this point, Zhou Weiguo could see Shen Quan's terror. He believed that Shen Quan must have investigated him clearly a long time ago, so he was so confident when he went up the mountain today.
Immediately, Zhou Weiguo said seriously: "I will seriously consider Commander Shen's words and will give you a satisfactory answer by then."
To be honest, many of the bandits present were unwilling to continue to be bandits in the mountains, and would rather die on the battlefield than continue to live here.
If you can successfully join the new group of flowers, you can get rid of your identity as a bandit and become a member of the heroic team.
