With Thunder Dragon as an example, others also stood up and expressed their surrender and obedience to Zhang Pingan in this way. Zhang Pingan did not refuse, and they all solemnly returned the gift and expressed their welcome.

Hearing Zhang Pingan's words, everyone laughed and did not answer. We are all good soldiers, but we do not have zero emotional intelligence. We all know that Zhang Pingan's words are polite, so everyone is waiting. According to the speaking habits of Chinese people, After being polite, you will get to the point.
Zhang Ping'an didn't keep everyone waiting for too long. After exchanging pleasantries, he went straight to the topic and said: "From now on, we can be regarded as comrades in the trenches, so we must openly announce something so that we can all understand each other. I believe everyone is murmuring now, after all, it is well known that our Eighth Route Army is poor, especially our county brigade, a local unit!"
"I believe you all know about our Eighth Route Army. Since you join our Eighth Route Army, you must abide by the regulations and disciplines of our Eighth Route Army. In the Eighth Route Army, officers and soldiers are equal, so we have no officers here, only comrades."
Speaking of this, Zhang Ping'an began to make suggestions, saying: "Our county brigade has just experienced a hard battle, and currently there are only more than 160 people. This time, I came to the 386 brigade to ask for help from the leaders, and got some help from the leaders. A Red Army squad, a veteran platoon, plus ten company platoon commanders.”
"Secondly, I serve as the captain of the county brigade, and the instructor is Comrade Zhao Mingyu. However, Comrade Zhao Mingyu was injured in the Baijiawa battle and is still recovering in the field hospital. The leadership of the county brigade is currently only me and the injured Comrade Zhao Mingyu."
"Further down, there is the No. 1 Squadron, which integrates all the troops of the county brigade. The squadron leader is Comrade Mao Fugui." At this point, Zhang Ping'an glanced at everyone and said, "Currently, these are the personnel of our county brigade. Due to the situation, recruitment and expansion are necessary."
After hearing Zhang Pingan's words, everyone present had different expressions, ranging from calm to happy. Generally speaking, they were all positive and had no other complicated emotions.
Zhang Ping'an took in everyone's expressions and said with a smile: "After talking about the personnel situation, let me talk about weapons and equipment. As for rifles, we have about 1,500 rifles, about 150 pistols of various types, and light and heavy machine guns. There are about 20 guns, about 20 grenades, and six 82mm mortars in the artillery."
Everyone knew that Zhang Pingan had captured a lot in the battle at Guojia'ao, but they didn't expect that Zhang Pingan had such a rich family background. This made everyone who had been sitting back and suffering suddenly become excited.
"hehe!!!"
Seeing the changes in everyone's mood, Zhang Pingan chuckled and said: "It can be said that except for the small number of personnel in our county brigade, there is no shortage of weapons and equipment. To sum up in one sentence, that is the wealth of our county brigade, not It’s rich but not bad either.”
Speaking of this, Zhang Ping'an also saw the same thing, and began to draw the pie for everyone skillfully, saying: "Everyone has chosen to join our county brigade. The time is just right. Our county brigade is about to usher in great development and expansion, and we are in urgent need of talents." when."
"As long as you work hard in your daily training and work, you can still complete the tasks in the battle, and you can win the battle, you don't have to worry about rewards, and you don't have to worry about your awards being replaced or discounted by others. There is no seniority in our Eighth Route Army. It only focuses on ability, and there are no unspoken rules that have been agreed upon. What matters is strength, strength, strength!"
As soon as Zhang Ping'an said these words, everyone's eyes lit up. Didn't everyone choose to join the Eighth Route Army because they got to know some of the situation of the Eighth Route Army through this period of contact? Now Zhang Pingan emphasized it to everyone again, which made everyone's anxiety completely disappear.
"Okay, I'm done." Zhang Ping'an didn't have a long speech, it would end here. Then he looked at the Thunder Dragon beside him and said with a smile: "Thunder Dragon, you can talk next!"
"Yes, Captain!!"
Lei Long responded solemnly when he heard the words, and then saluted everyone and said: "Captain, comrades, my name is Lei Long. I graduated from the ninth class of Huangpu. I have been working in the Jinsui Army since then and have served as a second lieutenant platoon. The commander, lieutenant company deputy, and captain company commander were transferred to the New Army three months ago as major battalion commander."
"The 103 soldiers who followed me to join the county brigade this time include 5 squad leaders, 2 platoon leaders, 1 company commander, 2 company instructors, and the rest are soldiers." After speaking, Thunder Dragon saluted everyone again. , and then sit down.
"hehe!"
Hearing Lei Long's introduction, Zhang Ping'an chuckled and said, "I must remember correctly. Huangpu's ninth class should have graduated in 1934. In four years, they can become a full-level military officer, and they are still in the army. Jinsuijun is indeed a top student of our Huangpu Military Academy."
"You are not just a member of the Whampoa Military Academy here, our brigade commander is your senior!"
When Lei Long heard Zhang Ping'an's words, he quickly waved his hands. He, who had always been very calm, couldn't help but become shy. He waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Captain, I don't dare to compare with Senior Chen. He is from our Whampoa Military Academy." The legend of Huangpu, those are the Three Heroes of Huangpu!"
"Hahaha!"
Seeing the look of Thunder Dragon, everyone laughed.
Zhang Ping'an even patted Thunder Dragon on the shoulder and said, "Wait a minute, I'll ask Brigadier Chen to treat you, a young boy from Huangpu, to breakfast tomorrow!"
"Huh? Huh!!!!"
As soon as Zhang Pingan said these words, Thunder Dragon couldn't hold back. He was stunned at first, and then full of surprise. He looked at Zhang Pingan and asked cautiously: "Captain, can you, okay?" The person who said this sentence At that time, Thunder Dragon had expectations but also uneasiness.
Looking at the Thunder Dragon like this, Zhang Ping'an couldn't help laughing and said: "Haha, don't worry, the brigade commander didn't know about this yesterday. If he knew, he would definitely meet you. There are many seniors of yours in our Eighth Route Army. If you carry the name Whampoa Military Academy, you might be able to meet the seniors wherever you go in the future, which will definitely make you more popular than the captain like me!"
Hearing Zhang Ping'an's words, Lei Long waved his hands repeatedly, but there was a hint of expectation in his eyes. There was no way, anyone who graduated from Huangpu Military Academy could not know that Huangpu produced fierce men in the first three periods, and there were famous generals in the country. , more or less graduated from the first three classes of Huangpu.
"Comrade Zhou Huairou, Comrade Lei Long has finished the introduction. Now it's up to you to introduce him!" After Lei Long introduced himself, Zhang Ping'an looked at Zhou Huairou beside him and said with a smile.
