Why is this kid as stubborn as a donkey?
Xiao Chen rubbed his temples angrily.
At this moment, Jin Chengzhong's horse slowly came forward and landed next to him: "Master, you might as well give him a chance."
"The explosive power of a person with hatred is unlimited."
He came earlier than Xiao Chen, and was used to seeing Jiangdong passively massacred by one man, so he knew the unwillingness and helplessness in these people's hearts.
Probably he could understand the sorrow of these people, so he was willing to help them.
Jin Chengzhong took the initiative and said, "Master, if you want to recruit new troops and expand the team, my subordinates are willing to serve as commanders and train them."
"The numbers are all trained. No matter how weak this pretty boy is, my subordinates can still make him become a brave man."
Xiao Chen rubbed his temples depressedly. The reason why he stopped was because he didn't want an ambitious person like Lin Xian to lose his life in vain.
Looking at Lin Xian's determined gaze, he nodded in agreement: "Okay, that's as you wish."
Seeing his face instantly glowing with light, he kowtowed and thanked Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen immediately interrupted him, "Don't be too happy first. You need to be careful about the recruitment you just mentioned."
"We only have 100,000, and there is indeed a huge gap in strength. We have to leave some backup."
Lin Xian nodded in agreement: "Sir, don't worry, Lin Xian will never disappoint your expectations!"
For several days in a row, supplies continued to be delivered to Jiangdong every day.
The people in Jiangdong saw it, and the heated discussion became louder and louder.
They knew there was going to be a war, and they were excited and nervous but full of expectations.
The common people yearn for a peaceful and contented life, but they also know that true peace requires someone to bear the burden and move forward.
Not eradicating those Japanese people and not attacking them will only encourage the other party's arrogance and make their lives more difficult.
The ideal tranquility and peace will never be reached.
Ever since!
Under Lin Xian's influence, many people responded.
A small arena was built at the fork of Jiangdong Road.
Lin Xian was sitting there, with recruitment information on the left and related requirements on the right.
Such as age, family situation, physical health, etc.
"I want to sign up!"
"Take me with you and see if I don't kill all those idiots!"
"We've let them go for a long time. It's rare that someone is willing to take us to revenge. This matter is obligatory!"
"Serving the country and safeguarding the territory are things that all people in the world share."
"..."
Mysterious gods kept coming, and everyone made impassioned speeches.
Among them were farmers, ordinary hard workers, and young and energetic students.
While Lin Xian recorded their name information, he felt all kinds of emotions in his heart.
Lin Xian's hands never stopped until sunset.
"Everyone, today's registration is over. Before officially joining the team, everyone still has the opportunity to regret it. If you have not registered, please come back tomorrow. I hope everyone will consider it carefully..."
He warned again and again, fearing that these people would just get ahead of themselves.
But there is no doubt that everyone’s answer is, “How can you regret defending your homeland and country?”
"Growing up in this land, it is our responsibility to protect it. How can a man with ambition be a coward now?"
Amid everyone's impassioned speeches, Lin Xian left calmly.
The red color of the setting sun dyed the clouds on the horizon, and the end of the sky seemed to be burning with fire.
The war was imminent, and Xiao Chen felt uneasy until Lin Xian came with a long scroll of paper.
"See Governor Xiao, this is the list of those who are willing to join the army today. Please take a look."
Although the breath is only as big as a hand ring, after opening it, it is a full meter long!
Xiao Chen's eyes were stunned when he looked at the very regular names in the sequence above, each of which was different.
"Are these the people who responded today?"
Lin Xian nodded calmly: "Yes, Jiangdong has been harassed by the Japanese for a long time. Everyone has always had deep grudges. It's a pity that there is no chance."
"Don't say you spend money to recruit troops. Even if you don't have money, I'm afraid there will be a lot of applied knowledge who will respond."
"I counted, and there were a total of 3,524 people who responded."
"This is just for today, I guess there will be no less tomorrow."
The entire area of Jiangdong Province has a population of approximately 150,000 to 200,000.
Originally I wanted to write more, but because of the continuous harassment of the Japanese, many of their compatriots were massacred, so the number dropped sharply.
According to Lin Xian's estimate, within half a month, there may be as many as 20,000 people responding.
This is not a small amount.
So among the hundreds of thousands of people, there are also young people, old people and women.
There are at most 70,000 to 80,000 young adults left.
A response of 20,000 is already an incredible thing!
Xiao Chen patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, good job. This is the courage we Chu people should have!"
Who says he is alone?
Standing behind him and supporting him are the entire people of Jiangdong Road!
Xiao Chen instantly seemed to have been greatly encouraged. He immediately ordered: "Commander Jin, I will work hard for you these days. Form all the new soldiers into formation and teach them combat skills."
"As for supplies, don't worry, the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce all over the world is absolutely reliable!"
Jin Chengzhong responded with tears in his eyes.
Xiao Chen looked at Lin Xian and suggested: "Actually, I think you are more suitable for documents than Wu."
"You are wise, strategic, and influential. You can recruit troops and provide logistics, and your value can be even greater. Are you willing?"
Xiao Chen said these words sincerely.
Lin Xian was slightly surprised: "Really?"
"It's absolutely true, this governor never sees the wrong person."
Lin Xian immediately nodded repeatedly: "As long as I can accompany the army and help out, Lin Xian is naturally happy!"
This kid realized that he should not send Xiao Chen away, and he smiled with satisfaction.
"Okay, you have worked hard today, go back and rest first, and continue tomorrow."
In the blink of an eye, less than half a month has passed, and the supplies frequently sent by Sihai Commercial Bank can no longer be piled up.
Their total number is 100,000, and they do not need all the equipment.
As for the rest, all will be given to the recruits from last year.
At this time, there were more than a dozen ships on the sea, floating from a distance and landing at the ferry.
As soon as they heard the news, Xiao Chen and the others hurried over immediately.
It is worth mentioning that the person who came to deliver the ship was actually Sheng Yuan.
Wei Baian was so shocked that he could fit an egg into his mouth, "Old Sheng, these warships seem to be different from before."
"It seems that your research on ship hulls is getting better and better. It is hundreds or thousands of times better than the ones that were well-dressed before."
He couldn't help but complain about the seemingly weak boats in the past, which made the parties involved feel embarrassed.
