Yuan Tengfei did not break his promise, and Yang Weiguang saw nearly 200 of his subordinates the next day.

Haha, I'm going to be a company commander? Or strengthen the company. He was very happy in his heart, and he could be said to be excited. But after seeing the soldiers in the barracks, the joy melted away like snow meets the sun.

The soldiers were divided into small groups, and the gangs did not communicate with each other; Dressed in messy clothes, with patches and holes, he looks like a beggar; The weapons are cold weapons such as swords and axes, and there are only a few antique arquebuses.

"Hello company commander!" Seeing Yang Weiguang coming, the soldiers shouted sparsely to welcome his arrival.

Yang Weiguang was shocked at first, could it be that these Qing Dynasty natives knew the composition of the modern army? But thinking of Yuan Tengfei, a modern person, it makes sense. It must be that he was not used to the messy titles of the late Qing world, and changed to the familiar military rank system.

He yelled, "Queue! ”

The soldiers began to move slowly, and it took five minutes to barely line up in five rows, worse than schoolchildren who did radio gymnastics.

Yang Weiguang's head is big, and if he goes to the battlefield with such a good look, his life is in danger. He suddenly wanted to leave, give up the position of company commander, and leave this ghost place. But he was a little reluctant, and after leaving here, he became a single person again, and it was even more unfavorable for him to survive.

For the next whole day, Yang Weiguang soaked in the barracks, and the soldiers who trained him couldn't tell the difference between left and right were hoarse. Not only him, but other gangsters from the modern day are doing the same.

Everyone has a brain. Knowing that the soldiers under their command is their capital to save their lives and survive in the late Qing Dynasty. They all want to train these people better.

The next day. Yuan Tengfei's order came down. Half of the people were going to cut down trees in the mountains twenty miles outside the city, and Yang Weiguang's team was among them.

"Oh! Great, no need to walk around all day! "The soldiers are not as confused as Company Commander Yang Weiguang, they all enjoy the activity of logging.

Relying on his familiar friendship, Yang Weiguang found Yuan Tengfei, who claimed to be the commander-in-chief, after coming to the mountains and forests: "Commander-in-chief, why do we come here to cut wood, shouldn't we continue to train soldiers." Make them more combative? It is also good to resist the encirclement and suppression of the Qing army. ”

"I've put away all the little wooden cards I gave you, keep them carefully and don't lose them." Yuan Tengfei had a smile on his face, but the words that came out of his mouth were related to another matter.

He was indeed very happy that with Yang Weiguang, a hundred or so traversers, he could not only control an army of 1,000 units before, but could command the grassroots level of 100 units. In this way, the intensity of control is greatly deepened, and the possibility of defection or something is much lower.

"Oh!" Yang Weiguang was still confused, and his mind was full of questions.

Yuan Tengfei made a new move, and he pointed towards an osmanthus tree five meters away. There was a large black rot area on the trunk.

"That's our killer feature, the real spell. Otherwise, do you think that the Qing army is so easy to be repelled by our army with cold weapons? Of course, it is different now, after seizing the guns and ammunition of the Qing army, it can barely be used by three or four thousand people.

It's just that you can't trust these soldiers for the time being, and all your men still have cold weapons. However, there is also a condition for the casting of this spell, and that is logging. When it's time to fight the enemy, I'll give you different spell times depending on your rank. ”

Yang Weiguang didn't know how to get back into the team, and his head was full of scenes of tree trunks rapidly rotting. It was only then that he understood where Yuan Tengfei's confidence came from, and why he didn't care about the sixteen people who left on their own yesterday.

Ten days passed like this, training soldiers and going to the mountains and forests to cut wood. Under Yang Weiguang's hard training, the speed at which the soldiers assembled and lined up was reduced to two minutes, and finally surpassed the patrol battalion of the Qing army.

On this day, all the soldiers did not go out to cut wood, but were gathered in the large training ground in the barracks, forming a huge phalanx. Yuan Tengfei stood on a high platform, and every time he spoke, a herald spread his words to the army.

"Now, it's time for us to attack. Announce that from now on, the army will attack the province of Fujian! ”

Yang Weiguang had already guessed that Yuan Tengfei, the commander-in-chief, would not be willing to nest in Ganzhou, otherwise he would not be so diligent in worrying about the training of soldiers. With the power of the spell, it was more than enough to defend the mountainous area, but Commander Yuan's posture did not look like he was satisfied with the current situation.

As for why it was not to attack the Yangtze River valley in the north of Jiangxi Province to the north, he could also guess one or two.

The northern part of Gan Province is a plain area with a developed economy, and the number of peasants who dare to rebel has greatly decreased. Moreover, it is also the place where the new army is stationed, and it is difficult to take it quickly. Fujian Province is different, most of the area is mountainous, and it is very likely to be captured by spells.

Yang Weiguang thought in his heart: It seems that the current army of nearly 20,000 people, except for a small number of those who stay, most of them have to fight the Qing army, and I hope that it is not me who will stay.

For Yuan Tengfei's majesty like the emperor of Ganzhou, Yang Weiguang was very envious. This is an army of 20,000 people, the territory of a place, and the fate of two or three million people are all decided by Yuan Tengfei.

Moreover, Yuan Tengfei had already said that as long as the territory was expanded, the traversers would be sent to the county seat and the capital city according to the size of the merit. This inevitably made Yang Weiguang and the others excited, and they all thought of attacking other counties in the Qing Dynasty.

Perhaps it was Yang Weiguang's chatter that played a role, and it was not him who stayed in Ganzhou, but another dejected traverser. Obviously, the time for the person who missed the credit to become the county magistrate was greatly delayed.

Under the guidance of the guides sent by Yuan Tengfei earlier, as well as the supply depots established in advance to provide food, the army easily crossed the mountain area to Changting in Fujian Province. Outside the county.

The 20,000-strong army densely blocked the small county town in three directions, leaving a northern opening, and then the artillery captured from Ganzhou began to pour shells on the city wall.

The commander of the artillery team is a guy with good math scores, and most of all the shells fall on the city wall, making large gaps in the brick wall.

When the ambush team in the north took out the fleeing patrol battalion, Yuan Tengfei ordered the army to begin the siege of the city, and soon captured the county town that had lost its army guards.

Yang Weiguang found that he hadn't even cast a spell, so he won the battle, leaving his prepared strength into the void. Next, the good news spread frequently, one county after another was captured, and soon even the Tingzhou capital was conquered, and the army swelled to 30,000. (To be continued.) )
