Director Yu, who was in a high position at a young age, was naturally Yu Xiaobao, who had been a dragon for a long time among immigrants. As early as 1627, when the traversers landed in Yulin Bay, Yu Xiaobao had already joined Haihan with his father Yu Dashan, and he was the longest group of naturalized people in terms of working experience. In his early years, he successively studied under Tao Donglai, Ning Qi, He Xi, Ma Li Ke and others, and has been serving beside the big men since he was sixteen years old, and this resume is rare in Haihan.

Under the words and deeds of the traversers, Yu Xiaobao learned the skills to greatly outperform those who came after him, and his loyalty to Haihan was high enough, so the executive committee trusted him very much and appointed him as the official in charge of the Haihan Youth League.

Contrary to the first impression, the Haihan Youth League is not a military organization, but a political organization. The purpose of this organization was simple: to make the young citizens under Haihan's rule loyal to the state and the Executive Committee, and to become the "political guard" of the Executive Committee. The establishment of the Youth League is not limited by industry or department, and it is only based on the two conditions of nationality and age, and you can join it if you meet the requirements. As a result, the Youth League has become a large organization with a large number of members across industries and departments. According to the statistics during this year's National Day, the number of members of the Youth League has even far exceeded the strength of the Haihan Army, and its influence among the people can be imagined.

Although joining the Youth League will have many benefits for personal future in the future, the Youth League does not have administrative management power over individuals, so Yu Xiaobao's official position can be said to have great influence and can influence the future of millions of people, but at the same time, the real power is also very small, and it cannot even directly determine the promotion of a certain person. But as long as people who are well versed in the Haihan system understand that Yu Xiaobao's position seems to have no real power, his influence among the people is already the first person to naturalize the people, and he can't be promoted at present, otherwise he will have to take off the position of a certain chief.

Yu Xiaobao was a very popular minister at a young age, and he worked and lived with the traversers all the year round, whether it was dressing or talking and behaving, he had basically left the state of the Ming people, and there were even many new immigrants who had just arrived in Sanya, who would equate him with the real "Haihan people". However, Yu Xiaobao himself and the big people above don't seem to have any scruples about this, similar to the treatment of being equipped with guards, in the past, it was true that only traversers could enjoy it, but now naturalized high-ranking officials like Yu Xiaobao will also be equipped with guards when traveling. Of course, in Sanya's good security environment, this kind of staffing is more of a status symbol.

The purpose of Yu Xiaobao's visit to the training base today is to inspect the work, and at the same time to check whether there are any young seedlings worth noting among the prospective civil servants recruited recently. With his current status, the staff here naturally have to be carefully received, lest anything go wrong. But when Yu Xiaobao walked here, he noticed Liu Shang lying on the lawn, so he sent the staff over to ask what the situation was.

Due to the special nature of the work of the Youth League, the propaganda department has always been one of the main cooperative units, and many young officials in the Haihan Propaganda Department who were naturalized earlier have studied under Ning Qi, and they also have a brotherly relationship with Yu Xiaobao. For example, Hong Jingwen of the Propaganda Department of the Sanya Port Management Committee once studied art with him, and he can be regarded as having a little personal friendship. Since this unsettled newcomer is Hong Jingwen's subordinate, he naturally has to ask a few more questions.

Liu Shang didn't know why the other party wanted to ask about his previous occupation, but he still honestly said according to the standard answer, he once made a living by talking about books in Guangdong, and heard that people on Haihan's side liked to listen to books very much, so he took a boat to Sanya to make a living, and later received a call from Changdegao.

Yu Xiaobao nodded and then asked, "Can you read and hyphenation?"

Liu Shang bowed down and responded: "The villain is coarse and well-versed, and the books he used to talk about were all written by himself. ”

"When will the class of the Propaganda Department be opened?" Yu Xiaobao no longer asked Liu Shang, but the staff next to him.

The official next to him replied: "Recently, the Propaganda Department has recruited few people, and there are not enough students, and all the part-time lecturers also have their own jobs to be busy, so ...... It's probably going to be next month. ”

There is no way to do this situation, and the training base can't specially convene lecturers to open classes for a student like Liu Shang. The lecturers who teach these students are not full-time, they are basically in-service officials of relevant departments, and they have to coordinate the time arrangements of the lecturers before arranging training courses. The Propaganda Department handed over the person, and the person in charge of handling the formalities here did not know the arrangement, so he directly accepted the person, and he could only make a mistake and let him stay here temporarily. Anyway, taking in Liu Shang is also a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks and a bowl, and this additional cost will not be a burden on the training base.

However, this matter was noticed and questioned by Yu Xiaobao, which means that someone may have to be responsible for this matter. Although Yu Xiaobao's official position is on the side of the Youth League, anyone with a discerning eye knows that what he usually does represents the meaning of the Executive Committee. In particular, when he came out to inspect the local work, this was almost the status of the minister, and he found out that something had gone wrong in the work of the training base, although it was a small matter, but the relevant personnel could not help but get nervous.

But Yu Xiaobao was obviously in a good mood today, and did not immediately blame the staff for the improper arrangement, but turned his head and said to Liu Shang: "In this case, you have nothing to do here recently, it just so happens that I am going to inspect the various counties on the island recently, and I need a person who can speak well to do the preaching work, are you willing to take on this task?"

Liu Shang hadn't come back to his senses yet, and Xiang Da Yan was already urging beside him: "Director Yu gives you a chance to perform, don't let down this kindness!"

Yu Xiaobao saw that he was hesitant, so he continued: "When you return from the inspection, it is not too late for you to complete the induction training, and I will say hello to Section Chief Hong when I go back." ”

Liu Shang felt that this might be a turning point in his task, so he immediately bowed down and responded: "That villain is better to be respectful than to obey his orders, so he will listen to the director's arrangement." ”

Yu Xiaobao will take a fancy to Liu Shang, of course, he is not a discerning hero, and it is not that Liu Shang has anything outstanding in appearance, the real reason is actually what he said, there is just such a vacancy that needs to be filled by someone who does things. Originally, there were personnel in his attaché team who were responsible for this work, but today before departure, he suddenly fell ill and fell, after he finished inspecting the Luhuitou Peninsula, he would take a boat from here to go to other places, and there were many inconveniences in the temporary transfer of people, and it happened that the preparatory cadres from this storyteller were idle here and had nothing to do, Yu Xiaobao read the opinions of the introducer on the registration information, and decided to temporarily recruit him as his entourage on this tour to fill the vacancy of the one who failed to make the trip due to illness.

Having said that, to have such a coincidence, Liu Shang also has to thank Chang Degao, if he hadn't been a little negligent and helped Liu Shang finish the training procedures, he would not have had the opportunity to meet Yu Xiaobao here. Or the introducer of Liu Shang wrote it briefly, without mentioning his personal situation, and Yu Xiaobao may not take a fancy to him.

So Liu Shang changed from an idler to a temporary attaché of Director Yu of the Youth League, and then he had to inspect the operation of the Youth League in various places on Hainan Island. Although Liu Shang still didn't quite understand what kind of task this was and what work he needed to undertake in it, since he had the opportunity to get close to the high-ranking figures in the Haihan court, he naturally wanted to try his best to seize this opportunity. Being able to do things next to such big people naturally gives you access to a lot of information that you would otherwise be completely unable to understand.

Of course, Liu Shang would not expect a person like himself who was temporarily recruited to have access to real confidential information, but as long as he could learn some of the inside stories of the operation of the Haihan Youth League through this temporary errand, it would be worth the trip.

Liu Shang has only a superficial impression of the existence of the Haihan Youth League through limited information, and this organization has a large and generally young members, and has an almost fanatical worship of the Haihan regime, which can be said to be one of the special products under the rule of the Haihan. How Haihan manages and runs this organization is a mystery to the outside world.

Liu Shang never thought that he would be able to deal with this department so quickly, and the person he came into contact with was the official in charge of the Youth League, which seems to be God's favor. By the time he thought about the meaning of this matter, Xiang Da Face was already urging him to hurry back to the dormitory to pack up.

So Liu Shang began to pack up for the second time in just three days, Yu Xiaobao did not tell him the specific itinerary, but listening to what he said about inspecting all parts of the island, it is obvious that he will not be able to return here in three or five days. But this time, Yu Xiaobao came forward to order, and Liu Shang also followed to enjoy the blessings, and he didn't even have to take the luggage himself, and after packing up, Xiang Da Face asked him to send him to Yu Xiaozhuo's ship docked on the nearby coast.

When Yu Xiaobao left the training base, Liu Shang had already joined the team of attachés. However, he was dressed in a Ming costume, which was a bit eye-catching in this team, and these people led by Yu Xiaobao all gave up the Ming-style clothes with wide robes and large sleeves, but wore Haihan-style clothes with a more suitable and slim tailoring style, and they looked more mentally capable. However, Yu Xiaobao did not express any opinion on his dress, which made Liu Shang, who had always been secretly worried about this, finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After leaving the training base, Yu Xiaobao led the team to the nearby Haihan Army School. Luhuitou Military Academy is currently the highest grade institution of the Haihan Army, all officers above the company level must complete the relevant advanced courses here before they can be successfully promoted, every year there are hundreds of officers including foreign military students trained here, it can be said that it is the production line of army officers.

How the Haihan Army's military strength has formed an invincible advantage in a short period of time has always been a mystery to the outside world, and it is rare for non-military personnel to be allowed to enter the area. However, the youth league in charge of Yu Xiaobao is obviously an exception, almost more than eighty percent of the young officers and soldiers in the Haihan army are members of the youth league, and one of the necessary conditions for a soldier of appropriate age to be promoted to lieutenant, that is, a company-level officer, is to check whether he has the qualifications of the youth league. If you don't join the Youth League, then the second lieutenant platoon commander is already at the end, or you have to stay up beyond the years of the Youth League to get a chance to be promoted.

There are so many members of the Youth League in the army, and it is only natural that Yu Xiaobao, the supervisor, will lead the front-line guidance work. Although he does not have the command of the army, his prestige is no less than that of some high-ranking officers in the army. After Yu Xiaobao arrived at the military academy, he directly gathered all the students here for review, and the treatment was already comparable to that of a senior official of the Ministry of National Defense.

Liu Shang is naturally interested in everything in the military academy, but he is only a temporary attaché now, so most of the time he can only follow and take a look, and he does not dare to contact the cadets in this military academy on his own.

What really surprised Liu Shang was that when he inspected the cadets of the military academy, he learned that there were so many foreign students here. In addition to the well-known Haihan vassal states such as Annam and Champong, even the Ming Dynasty also had military officers to study here, which was something he had never heard of before. Foreigners account for almost one-third of the total number of students who are reviewed, and the nationalities are even more diverse, at least seven or eight nationalities.

After Liu Shang noticed this, he had to re-examine Haihan's military influence in the South China Sea. Liu Shang would certainly not be surprised to see that these foreign cadets all had the same actions and reactions as the Haihan officers during the review, and it also showed that they had been deeply imprinted by the Haihan military system, and if there was a war in the future, these countries would send troops to help Haihan in the war.

After the review, Yu Xiaobao held an iron horn and gave a brief lecture to the students, to the effect that he encouraged them to study hard and be loyal to their country. But this is not the end, after the disbandment, Yu Xiaobao convened a group of young officers to hold a short meeting on the spot, it is said that these people are the backbone members of the Youth League, specializing in political work in the army.

After Liu Shang attended the meeting as an attaché, he finally had a general understanding of the existence of the Haihan Youth League in the army. These officers are the mouthpieces of the Youth League, and the grassroots soldiers are the targets of their propaganda and development. According to the establishment of the army, there are special personnel at all levels who are responsible for organizing the Youth League, and almost all of these people Yu Xiaobao met with are senior officers above the company level, and he only needs to explain the affairs of the Youth League to them, and they will be carried out layer by layer like a military order. All the propaganda work of the Youth League in the army is also carried out around the center of "loyalty to Haihan", and to put it bluntly, it is to brainwash and propagate the soldiers day after day, year after year, so that they can be extremely firm in their belief in loyalty to Haihan.
