Lin Ziran knows very well that Kong Deyi's refuge is just a choice forced by reality, which was the case before, and it is estimated that this is the case now.

But Lin Ziran doesn't care!

As long as Kounde plays for him, then it will be enough.

And he can also slowly subdue Kong De, just like Wu Guanlin and Xu Zhongshu.

Because they are all people who are unwilling to be realistic and have ambitions, as long as Lin Ziran can pull up a real army and let them see the hope of ascending to a high position, they will not give up easily.

Even if he can't subdue Kong Deyi in the end, then Lin Ziran is not worried, he is sure enough to completely empty Kong Deyi.

The salary is paid directly by the pay office, and the troops are forbidden to recruit recruits directly, but the recruits are supplemented by the recruit battalion, and the combination of the two is a big move!

To a large extent, it can prevent generals from turning their troops into their own private army.

Coupled with the officers of the Suiying Academy gradually cultivated by Lin Ziran, it was enough for Lin Ziran to slowly control the entire army.

Maybe this control is still flawed, but it is enough for the current chaos in Daheng.

What's more, as long as Kong Deyi chooses to give in now, then Lin Ziran will make frequent personnel transfers to the Third Artillery Battalion according to his own ideas, and if Kong Deyi can still completely control this artillery battalion, Lin Ziran will obey him.

After dealing with Kong Deyi's side, the last obstacle to replenishing the brigade regiment disappeared.

Soon, Lin Ziran officially issued a military order to form the first infantry battalion and the sixth infantry battalion into the first step corps.

The 2nd Infantry Battalion, the 3rd Infantry Battalion, and the 7th Infantry Battalion were organized into the 2nd Infantry Regiment.

Among them, there are only two battalions of the first step corps, but this is only temporary, because it is still in the process of recruiting new soldiers, and when the recruits are recruited, Lin Ziran will directly form an eighth infantry battalion.

In this way, two infantry regiments were formed.

The artillery unit was organized into the First Artillery Regiment from the original First Artillery Battalion, the newly reorganized Second Artillery Battalion, and the Third Artillery Battalion reorganized from the Sixth Heavy Artillery Regiment.

The scale of this artillery regiment is quite large, and it even includes 19 heavy guns, which is a bit nondescript in terms of establishment, but the purpose of the formation of this first artillery regiment is not to integrate artillery units, but purely to completely integrate the sixth heavy artillery regiment.

After Kong Deyi is completely done in the future, when the Third Artillery Battalion can be completely controlled by himself, Lin Ziran will pull out the Third Artillery Battalion alone again and organize it into a heavy artillery regiment.

In terms of baggage troops, the first baggage regiment was organized, with the original first baggage battalion under its jurisdiction, and the newly formed fifth and sixth baggage companies became the second baggage battalion. In the future, this baggage battalion will also expand into a three-battalion baggage regiment with the continuous expansion of the troops, and as for now, there is no need for so many baggage troops.

The three cavalry companies continued to be formed separately.

The newly established engineering company will also continue to be directly under the company.

On the side of the Fourth Reinforced Battalion, it was renamed the First Mixed Regiment, and the troops under its jurisdiction remained the same, after all, in addition to the Fourth Infantry Battalion, there were also artillery, cavalry, and baggage troops, with a strength of 1,000 people.

The southbound detachment was renamed the Second Mixed Regiment, and the troops under its jurisdiction remained the same, with more than 1,100 people.

After this reorganization, Lin Ziran now has two infantry regiments, an artillery regiment, a baggage regiment, two mixed regiments, three cavalry companies, an engineering company, and a pro-soldier team.

It's much easier to command that way.

As for the commanders of each regiment, the commander of the artillery regiment is Kong Deyi, and the deputy regiment commander is Gao Gaocai, and Gao Gao Cai is also the battalion commander of the First Artillery Battalion, and the battalion commander of the Second Artillery Battalion is Xu Jin, and the battalion commander of the Third Artillery Battalion is promoted by a company commander under Kong De, but it is also temporary in Lin Ziran's plan.

The commander of the First Infantry Battalion, Xu Zhongshu, temporarily acted as the commander of the First Infantry Battalion.

The commander of the Second Infantry Regiment was acting by Lu Sanzhen.

The head of the baggage regiment was Pei Dongrong, who was born in the first phase of the Suiying Academy.

According to Lin Ziran's future plan, the Third Infantry Regiment will be established in the future, but it will be at least a month later.

Recently, he has expanded too quickly, from 2,000 to 8,000 people, in just over two months.

Not to mention the fact that there are too many recruits, and there is also a serious shortage of qualified officers.

The only thing that can be considered good is weapons and ammunition.

Lin Ziran has just purchased hundreds of thousands of ordnance from Nanzhou Bank and Hongxiang Commercial Bank, and the artillery of these ordnance is already in place, and the musket is also undergoing emergency modification, and it will not be long before the whole army can be fully equipped with Mini rifles.

With such an urgent expansion, it is difficult to guarantee the combat effectiveness of the troops, and Lin Ziran is even worried that when he pulls them out to fight, they will collapse before they can fight.

Therefore, he needs to avoid war with other feudal towns as much as possible in the near future.

Let's keep a low profile for a few months, train the troops, and at least, let these newly recruited recruits learn to shoot......

Otherwise, Lin Ziran would not have sent letters to the major feudal towns before, pretending to be weak and weak, and the big guys would have hugged their thighs.

And five days after he sent the letter, he also received the first reply.

This letter was sent by Li Kun, who was the nearest one.

Li Kun's troops are in Pingdan County on the west bank of the Luo River, and the territory of Lianguan County controlled by Lin Ziran is also separated by a Luo River, and the distance between the two sides is very close.

So he was the first to send the letter to Li Kun, and Li Kun was also the first to react.

It's just that when Lin Ziran saw Ding Jiren, his face was a little not good-looking.

This Li Kun bullies people or drips, why does he always send this idiot over.

In case this person is chattering non-stop, and he can't help but shoot him directly in the head, wouldn't that be a contradiction!

Lin Ziran felt that Li Kun did it on purpose!

And Ding Jiren on the other side looked at Lin Ziran's gloomy face, and he also secretly said in his heart, this Lin Ziran was still the same as before, which made people afraid to watch.

But in the end, he is a lobbyist under Li Kun, and he has talked secretly with many feudal towns on behalf of Li Kun, and his psychological quality is still excellent.

Immediately, he took the initiative to step forward and said, "Ding has seen Lord Lin!" ”

Then he sent a letter: "This is a handwritten letter from my family, please read it!" ”

Lin Ziran took the letter and opened it, but it didn't say much, just said that the battle of Nanguangcheng was just a misunderstanding, and the two of us didn't know each other, if you have the chance, my brother will invite you to drink.

As for the three-county commitment, it is naturally still valid!

After Lin Ziran read it briefly, he said to Ding Jiren: "I have received your adult's letter, but the letter is not detailed, since you have come, you must be able to solve Lin's doubts!" ”

Ding Jiren said: "If you have any doubts, just say it, Ding will try his best to answer it!" ”

Lin Ziran said: "How are you going to fulfill the promise of these three counties, and what do you need Lin to pay?" ”

Ding Jiren immediately said: "Don't worry, for the sake of the people of Luoguang and ...... counties."

As soon as he heard this, Lin Ziran's face instantly darkened, and then he took out his pistol cleanly: "Don't talk nonsense!" Get down to business! ”
