Calls from various departments at the higher level arrived soon.

Zhang Junhao read the telegram to everyone, and everyone was excited.

Although the 88th Army and the 49th Army did not participate in the war, they dispatched teams to advance towards Jinhua Lanxi and Dongyang respectively. The flanks of the Special Melee Team were absolutely guaranteed. The Special Melee Team was equivalent to having a strong backer and being able to fight the Japanese.

Zhang Junhao said to Wei Baoqi: "You have also heard that the telegram sent by the Third War Zone under the order of Chongqing is great news for you. The Third Regiment has been changed to an independent Regiment, and all of you have their official positions will be retained and commended by meritorious personnel. If Du Wei learned about this, he would definitely be very happy."

Wei Baoqi's tears were in his eyes and said, "Thank you, General, for pointing out a clear road for us. My battalion firmly obeys your orders."

Zhang Junhao said to the company commander who surrendered first: "Since the Independent Regiment is under my command, Company Commander Yang Wenxian, given that you were the first uprising, I will promote you to battalion commander, and the remnants of the First Division and the Third Regiment are all under the command of your battalion. Your battalion is adapted into the Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment."

Company Commander Yang Wenxian was ecstatic and stood up immediately and shouted: "I, Yang Wenxian, firmly obeyed your command, went through fire and water, and died without hesitation."

Zhang Junhao nodded and said, "Since the 88th Army and the 49th Army have come here, our strategy must also be adjusted. Before the superiors call back, we adopted a defensive counterattack strategy, which has been changed from now on to offensive deployment. We established a command center and moved at any time according to the needs of the development of the situation. The first and fourth battalions immediately followed me. Once Du Wei succeeded in the uprising, the first and fourth battalions immediately returned to the independent regiment. The New Fourth Army Self-Defense Force was responsible for logistics support."

Zhang Junhao stood up and said with a smile: "Let's go! Let's go to the entrance of the canyon together and wait for the good news from Du Wei."

Zhang Junhao rode a big red horse, hung the semi-automatic rifle on the saddle, grabbed the reins with one hand and the whip with the other, and rode the horse forward.

Xie Xinming led two squads of the Guard to accompany him, and the remaining squad assisted the transfer of the team.

After arriving at Wang Jinxian's office, Wang Jinxian ordered all the guard teams to get on the horse and follow Zhang Junhao toward the entrance of the canyon.

Wei Baoqi and Yang Wenxian immediately returned to their headquarters to report the good news while preparing to lead the team out.

After Zhang Junhao and others arrived at the entrance of the canyon, the guard immediately stepped forward, and everyone rode their horses to control the vast space.

Zhang Junhao and Li Li rode a horse and stood side by side.

Zhang Junhao used a telescope to observe outside the canyon.

The First Division and the Third Regiment of the Peaceful Founding Army had no more combat forces. When the two battalions of the Second Regiment were killed, all ordinary soldiers knelt down and surrendered, and the officers were shot dead. The division headquarters was originally in a mess. When Du Wei's team surrounded the division headquarters and killed it, the division headquarters did not resist too much. The surrendered surrendered and the shot dead were shot dead. In less than two hours, Du Wei's regiment eliminated the First Division of the Peaceful Founding Army, and since then there was no division, only Du Wei's independent regiment.

Du Wei gathered all the officers and soldiers of the regiment together and ordered the chief of staff to control the team. He personally rode his horse to the canyon, naturally, his purpose was to report the good news to Zhang Junhao.

When Zhang Junhao saw Du Wei riding a horse, he urged the horse to meet him. Wang Jinxian and Li Li followed closely.

When Du Wei saw Zhang Junhao riding over, he jumped off the war horse from a distance, ordered the guards to stop and ran towards Zhang Junhao alone.

Zhang Junhao also jumped off the horse and walked up to him quickly with Wang Jinxian and Li Li.

Du Wei came to Zhang Junhao, stood attentively and saluted, and said loudly: "Report to General, Du Wei led the Second Regiment to revolt under your order. The Second Regiment has successfully held an uprising. I personally shot Deputy Commander Hu Dexin to death. Our regiment eliminated all the stubborn traitors. Please instruct."

Zhang Junhao smiled and said, "Congratulations on your success in the uprising. I reported to the commander-in-chief of the Third War Zone Commander-in-Chief Department of the Third War Zone. The commander-in-chief Department of the Third War Zone passed on a telegram to the principal of Chongqing. The principal of Chongqing now sent a telegram to commend you for leading your uprising. Those who have made contributions will be commended. Your regiment will be changed to an independent regiment. All officers' positions remain unchanged. The independent regiment belongs to my command. I have promoted Company Commander Yang Wenxian to battalion commander, and he will serve as battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment. The remnants of the First Division and the Third Regiment are all incorporated into the Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment."

Du Wei was ecstatic and smiled and said, "I didn't expect that I would hold an uprising, and the principal paid attention to it."

Zhang Junhao said: "You are his student, so of course he will pay attention to you."

Du Wei sighed and said, "It's a pity that I took a detour."

Zhang Junhao said: "It is no big deal to improve your mistakes."

Du Wei said: "Our group has been assembled, please give me a lecture."

Zhang Junhao laughed and said, "Don't worry, wait for Wei Baoqi and Yang Wenxian's team to announce the official establishment of the Independent Group when I speak."

Du Wei smiled and said, "Then please go to the Independent Tuantuan headquarters for tea."

Zhang Junhao laughed and said, "Okay!"

Zhang Junhao rode into the Independent Regiment on his horse and saw the Independent Regiment officers and soldiers standing in an open area. He nodded and followed Du Wei to the Independent Regiment headquarters.

In the Independent League Headquarters, Zhang Junhao sat in the chairperson, and Du Wei stood and made tea for Zhang Junhao, Wang Jinxian and Li Li. The other personnel gathered in the open area. The League Headquarters were empty, so Du Wei could only do the tea making work himself.

Zhang Junhao asked Du Wei to sit down, looked at him and said, "Tell me about the current number of people in your regiment, the number of people in the remnants of the 1st and 2nd regiment, and the weapons and equipment."

Du Wei immediately made a detailed report, and then said with a smile: "My regiment has a roster and a list of weapons and equipment. I will give you one at that time."

Zhang Junhao laughed and said, "Very good. Your regiment still has more than 2,000 people, more than 200 remnants of the first and second regiments, plus Yang Wenxian's company, more than 100 people, with a total of 350 people. The team is still strong. The equipment of the independent regiment is only a little less than that of the Japanese army. Relatively speaking, it is already very powerful. Very good! I hope that under your leadership, the Independent regiment can win more battles on the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War."

Du Wei smiled and said, "Please rest assured, since I, Du Wei, have revolted, will definitely cherish the hard-won opportunity. In the future, I will definitely lead the Independent Group to fight the Japanese under your leadership."

Zhang Junhao said: "After I announced the establishment of the Independent Regiment, we do three things. First, we will immediately count all the equipment of the First Division. The key is to collect the radio stations and hand over the codebook to our radio staff. With the codebook, we can intercept the telegrams between the Japanese army and grasp the trends of the Japanese army. Second, we will do ideological work. If someone doesn't want to fight, send money to them home. Third, we will control the east side of the Puyang River and make preparations for cutting off the traffic line between Dongyang and Zhuji."

Du Wei nodded repeatedly and said yes.

Zhang Junhao said: "The team is gathering, you can't leave for too long. You can go and do your business. When the first and fourth battalions arrive, let them line up and send someone to call me."

Du Wei said yes and left.

Li Li looked at Zhang Junhao and said with a smile: "It seems that no matter how powerful the puppet army is, political offensive is far better than combat."

Zhang Junhao laughed and said, "You are so brave. You dare to go to the puppet army alone to negotiate with the puppet army."

Li Li smiled and said, "I said it was your fiancée, who dared to harm me? I am not afraid! You don't know! We used your name to shock these puppet troops, so that a series of situations are happening now."

Zhang Junhao laughed and said, "You all have made contributions and should be commended."

Wang Jinxian smiled and said, "It's a pity that Li Li belongs to the US military. If she were in the special melee team, she should be at least a major now."

Li Li smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. The reporter is the uncrowned king. People will respect me wherever I go."

Zhang Junhao nodded and said, "The puppet army uprising looks calm on the surface, as if there is nothing to write about. In fact, if you think about it carefully, there are still many things to write about. Especially you, Li Li, who dares to enter the puppet army alone and negotiate with the puppet army. This move makes me respect it."

At 11:00 noon, Zhang Junhao stood on a table in front of the Independence Group and spoke.

Li Li took photos and recorded this important moment.

Zhang Junhao first praised all the officers and soldiers for the uprising, and announced that the surrendered personnel of the remnants of the First Regiment and the Third Regiment were also considered an uprising and were treated equally. The Independent Regiment was officially established, and the list of meritorious personnel was created and reported to the superiors to wait for commendation.

Then Zhang Junhao talked about the international and domestic situation and told everyone that the world's anti-*** alliance is launching a counterattack against Germany and Japan. Victory are being won steadily on the battlefields of the East and West. The defeat of the *** is already doomed. The Japanese army in China is already in autumn. When the cold wind blows, they will all go to see the King of Hell.

Finally, let’s talk about the situation facing the Independent Regiment, telling you that the 22nd Division of the Japanese Army is at the end of its path and is making its final struggle. The Independent Regiment must cooperate with the special melee team to beat the Japanese army and strive to completely eliminate the 22nd Division of the Japanese Army.

Zhang Junhao has an unimaginable prestige among these puppet troops. Everyone is legendary that Zhang Junhao is the star Wu Qu and the God of War is alive. When he looks at Zhang Junhao, he will be so excited that he can't sleep for days and nights. When he hears Zhang Junhao's speech, he is so excited that his heart is about to jump out of his chest.

When Zhang Junhao spoke, the applause became tighter and more intense. Zhang Junhao had to stop and wait until the applause stopped before continuing to speak.

Just as Zhang Junhao was speaking to the Independent Regiment, the news of Du Wei's uprising had already reached Dongyang and Yiwu, and the top Japanese troops were suddenly panicked. The Chief of Staff of the 13th Army, Lieutenant General Gu Jinji, and Lieutenant General Isoda Sabuki, the commander of the 22nd Division, immediately rushed to the Dongyang Front Command Center to hold an emergency meeting to discuss strategies to deal with changes in the current situation.
