Chapter 643: A Deal with Guan Ningjun

After arranging the two generals Huang Hansheng and Wei Lianheng and the two literati Sima De and Sun Yuanhua, Xia Nan then reorganized the two armed forces directly subordinate to him. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Yang Youji's guard corps was renamed the Guards Battalion, and the establishment was temporarily approved as one battalion, and it will be increased as needed in the future, and it will be responsible for the protection of my travels and on the battlefield; The samurai under Chiyo Shimazu were organized into the sword drawing team and were responsible for my personal guards; Huang Mengjia's special combat team will also be expanded, and the number of people will be temporarily set at about one battalion, and the name will remain unchanged. These three forces are directly accountable to me. ”

If the Qiong Navy represents the entire group and condenses the interests of everyone, then these armed forces are directly loyal to Xia Nan, similar to the emperor's pro-army. The Guards Battalion and the Special Combat Team are similar to the later Forward Battalion and the Cavalry Battalion, and the sword drawing team is equivalent to the guards with knives in front of the Emperor.

This arrangement is understandable to all. From the escort team to the Qiongzhou battalion, and then to Qionghai Town, the entire system is thriving under the leadership of Xia Nan, and everyone knows what the goal is - although Xia Nan once said that it is not necessary to be the emperor, and it is okay to be a generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, but except for a few people such as Sun Yuanhua, everyone regards this as a retreat or even an excuse - since Xia Nan is likely to sit in the position of the Ninth Five-Year Emperor in the future, then why not take precautions to follow the emperor to establish the prototype of the pro-army.

The design of the superstructure of the Joan Navy was preliminarily completed, and the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level did not know about this, they only cared about their positions and salaries being upgraded with the expansion of the army.

The two battalions of the original Qiongzhou battalion are veterans who have experienced several battles, and in the process of this expansion, almost everyone has been promoted and paid. Huang Hansheng and Wei Lianheng were directly promoted from major battalion commanders to colonel regiment commanders, and the rest of the squad leaders were promoted to platoon commanders, platoon commanders to company commanders, and company commanders to battalion commanders.

Lan Lin and Zhu Jinhu, who fought and made a bet during the Tuntian period, got their wish and ended their identity as Tunding, entered the Qiong Navy, became two recruits, and began their careers as professional soldiers.

The tall and strong Lan Lin originally thought that the weak Zhu Jinhu would be eliminated early in the cruel military training, but he didn't expect this guy to stick to it, and the food in the army was hundreds of times stronger than when he fled in Shandong. At the end of the one-month recruit training, the two were assigned to the first battalion of the first regiment of the Qiong Navy with excellent training results, but they were not in the same company.

Unlike Lan Lin, who is a hero and has a good face, Zhu Jinhu came with lofty ideals to join the Qiong Navy, not just for the so-called gambling contract. He lost his parents and everything, and changed his fate by becoming a soldier, making his parents smile and Jiuquan, which became the biggest motivation for him to survive in this world.

After the expansion of the army was completed, the agreed date for the transaction with the Guanning Army also arrived.

The leader who was sent to Shandong to complete the deal was supposed to be Sun Yuanhua. He was in charge of the military quartermaster, and the horses and guns belonged to the equipment and equipment, and they were all under his control. But after all, he was the former governor of Denglai who was dismissed by the imperial court, and if he didn't come to the high school, his original fate was to be imprisoned and beheaded, and it was not appropriate to appear openly in the Dengzhou area. So Sun Yuanhua sent another candidate.

This person was chosen to the surprise of many people, and it was actually Lu Gengyu of the former Changhua Zhi County who had assassinated Xia Nan unsuccessfully.

After Lu Gengyu's assassination failed, Xia Nan, under the persuasion of Sun Yuanhua, generously let him go and did not take his life. Lu Gengyu's right leg has been disabled, and he resigned from his official position, originally with the idea of dying together, he was generous and righteous when the assassination succeeded, and he calmly died if the assassination failed, he never thought that he could live, but he didn't expect Sun Yuanhua to come forward to save his life and stay in the mansion. After calming down, the nameless fire against the Qiongzhou camp and Xia Nan slowly dissipated.

During the days of staying in Lingao, Lu Gengyu felt the rapid changes in Lingao, and saw that the people could live and work in peace and contentment, and their living standards were far better than those of Changhua and other counties, coupled with Sun Yuanhua's enlightenment, he slowly figured it out: No matter how domineering Xia Nan's approach was, it was true that the people of Lingao lived a good life, and it must be admitted that even if the people of Changhua County mined for it, their income was much better than before. Since Xia Nan can benefit the people, why bother with some of his practices and ways of doing things? As a result, Lu Gengyu accepted Sun Yuanhua's arrangement and became his subordinate to assist in handling matters related to the production and deployment of ordnance.

Sun Yuanhua also reported this matter to Xia Nan. Xia Nan is very open-minded, the assassination has passed, Lu Gengyu is just impulsive, there is no other deep hatred for each other, it is naturally a good thing to have one more literati who served as the magistrate to serve him, and there are not too many scholars under him, but too few. Baicaoyuan has cultivated a group of seedlings, but most of them are cultivated as technical backbones, lacking administrative talents, and it will take time for these teenagers to finish their studies and enter positions in various industries.

Lu Gengyu went to Shandong instead of Sun Yuanhua, mainly to deploy and transport Qionghai-style rifles and mountain artillery for the newly established Quartermaster Bureau.

After Ma Wei helped Su Thick Leg stop the hungry people from storming the porridge shed set up by the government, he was appreciated by Su Thick Leg and suggested that he join the Qiongzhou camp. Ma Wei was in the prime of life, and he didn't want to waste this skill honed in Xuanfu, so he resolutely chose to join after learning about the mouth-watering benefits of the Qiongzhou camp. Su Thick Leg is Huang Hansheng's cronies, and the candidate he recommended has been valued by Huang Hansheng, but at that time, there was no cavalry in the Qiongzhou battalion, so it was too wasteful to let Ma Wei, who was skilled in horsemanship, pick up a rifle and serve as the head soldier, so Huang Hansheng reported this to Xia Nan.

After Xia Nan heard about Ma Wei's performance and experience in the border town, he attached great importance to it, and at that time, he had already negotiated with the Guanning Army about the sale of guns and artillery for war horses, so he appointed Ma Wei as the instructor of the first batch of cavalry, and the place of recruiting cavalry and training was set up in Dengzhou, so as to avoid the phenomenon that the Mongolian horses that Wu Sangui said would not adapt to the soil and water when they arrived in the hot Qiongzhou Prefecture. Anyway, Governor Denglai is Xia Nan's future father-in-law, and it is not a big deal to secretly train a cavalry unit under his protection.
