Chapter 129 Recruitment plan
Chapter 129: Recruitment plan!!!
On the playground of Taiyuan Prison, more than 3,000 prisoners stood neatly on the playground.
On the rostrum, Tao Ping cleared his throat, took a sip of tea, and began to speak to the prisoners' recruitment. Tao Ping said to the prisoners under the rostrum:
"Brothers, let me introduce myself first. My name is Tao Ping. I am the commander of the 911 Column of the Eighth Route Army, that is, the highest commander of the 911 Column. I am from the Northeast. Like many of you, I have been a bandit and killed people before, but I am different from the murderers among you. I kill Japanese and traitors, and some of you may kill Chinese.
When I was still in Shanghai about two years ago, I was very fortunate to personally take over the Japanese Army Command. I believe some of you may also know that for this matter, the Japanese Army Headquarters are now spending a lot of effort to take the heads of my neck.
Today I have only one purpose of recruiting everyone here, which is to hope that everyone will work with our Eighth Route Army to defend the country and kill the Japanese devils."
As soon as Tao Ping finished speaking, the prisoners in the audience immediately began to stir up, and many prisoners began to whisper.
"Boss, are you saying that the Eighth Route Army official is true? He can really let us join the army and kill the Japanese and fire guns to us. I'm not dreaming!" Criminal B said to the prisoner A of the Taiyuan Prison in a little unbelievable.
"Barring, ask me, who will I ask! Let's see what he said, let's talk about it. If he can really ignore the past and shoot us to kill the Japanese, it is a good way for us to join the army and kill the Japanese. After all, it is better to kill the enemy and protect the country than to burn bricks in this place where rabbits do not shit." Criminal A said to prisoner B thoughtfully.
"But boss, that boy is young and looks younger than the young scholar from afar. He can really be the hero of the Northeast Army who killed the Japanese on the beach and bombed the Japanese headquarters alone." Criminal B said to prisoner A with some disbelief.
"Scholar, why are you still standing there? I ask you, you are aware of writing and lyrics. Didn't you read newspapers all day long? Is the guy you spoke in the stands really the Northeast Army hero who went viral in our phone last year?" Criminal A did not answer prisoner B's question, but turned his eyes to prisoner C (the guy nicknamed "Scholar") who was dazed there and asked in a low voice.
"Boss is calling you!" Criminal B saw that C (the guy nicknamed Xiucai) did not answer prisoner A's reply, so he poked prisoner C with his hand and said.
After prisoner B stabbed him, prisoner C came to his senses and said carefully to prisoner A:
"Boss, it's really him, it's really him!"
"You are sure!" Criminal A asked prisoner C again in disbelief.
"Don't worry, boss, you must be wrong." Criminal C said to prisoner A carefully:
Tao Ping on the stage watched the prisoners in the stage start to stir up, so he couldn't help but look at Warden Fang Fang in the stage and smiled knowingly.
"Everyone calm down, Commander Tao has something to explain to everyone!" Warden Fang Chunsheng said as he waved his hand to signal the prisoners below to calm down.
Seeing the prisoners in the audience quiet again, Tao Ping then pointed to a large number of files on the side of the rostrum and said to the prisoners in the audience:
"As long as everyone can go with us to carry guns and fight the Japanese, no matter what everyone has done before, we will eliminate it. I have our past crime files here. If you want to forget the past and forget the past, I can make the decision to destroy them all.
But there is only one and the only condition, that is, you must fight the Japanese devils with us wholeheartedly."
As soon as Tao Ping finished speaking, the originally quiet crowd in the audience immediately began to stir up again.
"Boss, have you heard that this guy said that we can destroy all our previous records!" Criminal B said to Criminal A very excitedly.
"Barring, my ears are not deaf, but it seems that this kid really wants to take us to fight the Japanese devils together. There is definitely a way to do this." Criminal A said to prisoner B calmly.
"What should we do?" Criminal B said to prisoner A very anxiously.
"Why are you anxious? Listen to what he says below and make a decision!" Criminal A said to prisoner B calmly.
At this moment, with Warden Fang Chunsheng waved his hand again, the prisoners in the audience calmed down again.
Looking at the pairs of longing eyes off the stage, Tao Ping then said to the prisoners off the stage with a firm expression:
"Everyone is Chinese, I believe everyone understands that Japan has taken over half of our territory now. The three eastern provinces are lost, Peking is lost, Shanghai is lost, Tianjin is lost, and even Nanjing, the capital of the National Government.
Japan burned, killed, abused, and committed all kinds of evil on our territory. I believe everyone has heard of the Nanjing Massacre that happened some time ago, but you may not know it yet. Just 16 years ago, in the 12th year of the Republic of China, that is, in 1923 AD, Japan, a very huge earthquake in Kanto occurred, killing many people, tens of thousands.
Our Chinese government at that time, the Beiyang government, was fully helping them. A Buddhist leader in Shanghai even donated 6,000 dan of rice to rescue them. Mr. Mei, a famous master of Jingju, also launched a charity performance for him.
But what is the result? I believe everyone knows that just eight years later, the Japanese who we had fully rescued launched the September 18th Incident, launched a full-scale war of aggression against China, and the Jinan Incident. Do you know? In our own territory, the diplomats in our country were poached and cut off their tongues. This is the national humiliation!
In Nanjing, those Japanese animals who have lost their humanity even held murder competitions, but the people killed were all the people in Nanjing. The result of the competition was that many Japanese soldiers' sabers were chopped and rolled.
So I said, these Japanese devils are not humans at all, they are pigs and animals at all.
Sometimes, I even think that it is wrong for me to call them animals because they are not even as good as animals. Calling them animals is an insult to animals. Although one day God will certainly shake this country of sin into the bottom of the sea, our most important task now is to drive them out of China.
Whether you are murderers, thieves, or fraudsters, as long as you sincerely regret and sincerely carry a gun to attack the Japanese devils, I promise you will be treated like a hero.
I believe many of you may also know that I am not much better than you all. I am also from the Green Forest of the Jianghu and the Horse Bandits.
I promise you with my personality that as long as everyone joins the army to fight the Japanese devils with me, we will be good brothers who share life and death, share honor and disgrace, and never leave us.
Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of a country. At this time when the country is destroyed and the nation is survived, I hope everyone can stand with our Eighth Route Army and drive Japan out of China together.”
Tao Ping had just finished speaking, and the crowd who were hesitating just now immediately burst into applause and couldn't stop for a long time.
Looking at the enthusiastic crowd in the audience, Tao Ping then said to everyone in the audience:
"We are voluntary registration when joining the Japanese army and fighting Japanese devils. As long as we are willing to fight Japanese devils, please stand still and we will register together after a while;
If you are unwilling or have other special circumstances that are inconvenient to join the army, please go back to the cell and continue burning bricks like this!"
Tao Ping had just finished speaking, and the crowd that was still a little restless just now immediately became quiet again. Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you. In the end, ten minutes passed, but no one left.
Looking at the increasingly firm eyes of the crowd below, Tao Ping said to the crowd below with great joy:
"Thank you very much for your trust in our Eighth Route Army. We are all good brothers in the future!"
"Xiao Lu, set fire!" Tao Ping said to Lu Gaosheng, a guard not far away.
"Yes!" Lu Gaosheng immediately stood attentively and said to Tao Ping. After that, he used a lighter to light the torch that had been prepared long ago and burned the "inmate files" retrieved from the Taiyuan Police Station and Taiyuan Prison.
Accompanied by the firelight that rose with the wind, the cheers of Zhentian immediately came out on the playground of Taiyuan Prison.
When it was two o'clock in the afternoon, after the final screening, in addition to fifteen old prisoners over 70 years old, including some prison guards, fire husbands, as well as some runners and chefs, Tao Ping screened out a total of more than 3,600 people from Taiyuan Prison.
Of course, as the former boss of Taiyuan Prison, Warden Fang, was also recruited into the army. After all, it is not easy to lead such a team with mixed personnel and mixed personnel quality. It is really impossible to do without an old world like Warden Fang.
By the way, Tao Ping did not burn the archives of those prisoners at all, but burned some waste archives that had been expired.
Looking at the dozen new pseudo-lists piled on the table, Tao Ping was happy and said:
"Lao Fang, from now on, your work has shifted from underground to ground. How to lead this team well, I rely entirely on your support!"
"Commander Tao, don't say that. In fact, I just thought about it carefully. Among the new recruits in our hands, there are no unforgivable people who are extremely guilty. Most of them are caught in for fighting or thieves.
Some of them were wrongly accused of being wronged because their family had no money and could not afford a lawsuit. Some even came when they were punished, such as the criminal C (nicknamed Scholar) who came in because they took the initiative to punish others." Fang Chunsheng then said to Tao Ping thoughtfully.
"You said you came in for the initiative to take the blame for others? That's strange. There are also people like this who take the initiative to take the blame for others and go to prison for others. What's going on?" Tao Ping said Fang Chunsheng, very puzzled.
"Commander, don't think that the Taiyuan Prison is not big, there are many strange things. Just call this scholar. In fact, it was because his father accidentally burned someone else's shop and there was no money in his family to compensate him. But this kid is a filial son and can't bear to see his old father suffer from prison, so he came in instead of his old father." Fang Chunsheng continued to say to Tao Ping.
"Is there anyone else in that scholar's family?" Tao Ping said to Fang Chunsheng.
"There are two younger brothers who are in primary school. His father is the accountant for them. The whole family relies on his father to support him. His mother is not in good health. So there is no way, so he comes in to take the blame." Fang Chunsheng said to Tao Ping even more helplessly.
"Lao Fang, in a while, you go to Staff Zhou to send 200 yuan to him, even if it is our little intention!" Tao Ping said to Fang Chunsheng.
"Yes!" Fang Chunsheng said.
Just when it was outdated, Zheng Guolong came to Tao Ping's office.
"Report to the commander, the results of the battle are counted." Zheng Guolong said and handed a document to Tao Ping.
Tao Ping took the battle report handed over by Zheng Guolong, read it carefully, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face from time to time.
"It's so great. I'm still worried about the gun-equipped by this group of new recruits. I didn't expect it to be solved with such a slight slight." Tao Ping said to himself very happily.
"A ammunition depot, plus more than 1,000 long and short guns seized from the Japanese and puppets and raised from the arsenal warehouse, we have nearly 8,000 long and short guns and more than one million bullets." Zheng Guolong said to Tao Ping very happily.
"Commander, you are going to distribute weapons to these new recruits now." Fang Chunsheng said to Tao Ping with some concern. After all, he is still a little worried about the more than 3,600 prisoners.
"Of course, I didn't give them a grant now. If I had a gun for them right now, it would be great. Maybe these guys might have some trouble after they had guns in their hands." Tao Ping continued to say to Fang Chunsheng.
"That's good! After all, the situation of this group of new recruits is special. I think it's better to do a month of ideological transformation before talking about it. Otherwise, there might be some chaos." Fang Chunsheng said to Tao Ping even more helplessly.
Hearing Fang Chunsheng say this, Tao Ping continued:
"I plan to conduct two months of ideological rectification and then three months of military training for new recruits. I wonder what you two are about!" Tao Ping and Zheng Guolong said.
"I agree!" Fang Chunsheng and Zheng Guolong said to Tao Ping at the same time.
"Just agree, how busy is Zhou Bin and Chief of Staff Zhou!" Tao Ping then said to Zheng Guolong.
"Report to the commander, the arsenal of the Japanese in Taiyuan was actually an arsenal repair shop that the Kuomintang did not have time to move away when they retreated in Taiyuan. Usually, they basically produced some light weapons such as medium-term rifles and bullets. Now the most produced grenades are grenades.
There are currently twenty-two machine tools. We have dismantled fifteen machines and seven are being dismantled. Now Chief of Staff Zhou is commanding the personnel to dismantle them! It is estimated that they will be dismantled before dawn tomorrow." Zheng Guolong and the others said to Tao Ping at the same time.
"Minister Zheng, now you can replace Staff Zhou immediately. We will negotiate with this bastard Wu Wen in two days. We have to prepare!" Tao Ping said to Zheng Guolong.
"Yes!" Zheng Guolong immediately stood attentively and said to Tao Ping in a standard military salute.
Then, a strange action organized by Tao Ping to copy Wu Culture's back path officially began.
Chapter completed!
