Chapter VIII Expansion Plan
At night, in Zhou Xiaozheng's bedroom, Zhou Xiaozheng, who was lying on the bed, had a very complicated expression on his face, some excited, some relieved, and more doubtful.
"Xiao Rui, tell you the truth to your father, where did you get the 24,000 silver bricks used to buy three warships and ammunition?"
Zhou Rui smiled, "Dad, you just let your son dig up a big treasure!"
There are some things that are hard to believe when explained, and I think it's better not to say it.
Anyway, in the future, our Zhou family may lack everything, but only there should be no shortage of money! β
Wen Yu next to him scolded with a smile: "You stinky boy, why are you still hiding from the two of us, where did so many silver bricks come from?"
Listen to your tone, in addition to the 24,000 silver bricks, you should have a lot of silver bricks in your hands! β
"Mom, that's my little vault, don't beat my little vault."
Regarding the lottery system, just like the matter of rebirth, Zhou Rui will not tell anyone, including his parents, of course.
This has nothing to do with trust or distrust, Zhou Rui just doesn't want to increase mental pressure on his parents, after all, even Zhou Rui can't figure out why he was reborn, the whole thing is really a bit unbelievable.
At this time, Zhou Xiaozheng said: "Since you don't want to say it, then your mother and I won't get to the bottom of it, but you have to remember that good steel should be used on the blade."
Ahem, the garrison brigade is the foundation of our Zhou family, and no matter how much money is thrown into the garrison brigade, it is worth it.
This time, you were able to add an all-steel battleship and two armored cruisers to the coastal defense fleet of the garrison brigade, and Dad was very pleased that you had grown up.
Ahem, with these three warships, the scale of the coastal defense fleet will surpass the Xiyun fleet of the Liu family in Xiyun City, and become the strongest fleet in Fengwu Town, and our Zhou family's position in Ganyang City, and even in the entire Fengwu Town, will be unshakable! β
Hearing that his father no longer asked where the silver bricks came from, Zhou Rui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Sometimes a lie needs more lies to cover up.
As long as the parents no longer ask about the origin of the silver bricks in their hands, Zhou Rui does not need to explain other people's doubts at all.
Then Zhou Xiaozheng's voice changed, "Your second uncle said that you found out that Jia An had collusion with the Cui family?" β
Zhou Rui pondered for a while and said, "Dad, although I don't have direct evidence in my hand, Jia An must have two hearts for our Zhou family." β
"Ahem, you don't need to worry about this matter, Dad will help you deal with it."
"Dad, there is one thing I want to discuss with you, the first corps that is now being rebuilt, or the second uncle is also the head of the regiment, and I am ready to let Song Shenghe take over as the head of the first step corps."
"That nephew of Song Limin?"
"Yes, that's him! Dad, Song Shenghe used to go to a military academy in Shuonan Town, and he also served as a deputy company commander in the Shuonan Army, plus he has been by my side for the past two years, so I also trust his character. β
"Yes."
"Dad, there's one more thing ......"
After Zhou Rui left, Wen Yu said to her husband with emotion: "I didn't expect Xiao Rui to grow up all of a sudden. β
The corners of Zhou Xiaozheng's mouth showed a hint of bitterness, "It seems that we really ignored Xiao Rui before, if it wasn't for Xiaokang...... Maybe Xiao Rui will always stay the same as before and continue to be his gentleman. β
"Huh? Husband, do you mean that Xiao Rui was before? β
"Alasβat least for now, I can safely hand over the garrison brigade to Rui."
In the hall where Zhou Rui lived, Zhou Rui said to Li Donghu and Li Dongbao with a smile: "In the future, Heihu will be the company commander of the first company of the guard battalion, and the leopard will be the company commander of the fourth company of the guard battalion."
In the future, my safety will be entrusted to the 1st and 4th companies. β
The guard battalion of the garrison brigade had a total of four companies, one company and four companies, all of which participated in the battle of attacking Jingyang City with Zhou Xiaozheng.
The two brothers, Li Donghu and Li Dongbao, glanced at each other, and Li Donghu said with some uneasiness: "Second young master, neither I nor the leopard have ever led soldiers, so it is better to let the big head and the scar ...... them."
"They have other important responsibilities, they have never led soldiers to school, and no one is born to lead soldiers.
There are only four of you around me, and if you two don't help me lead the troops, who will I let lead the troops for me! β
When Li Donghu and Li Dongbao heard Zhou Rui say this, they dared to refuse.
"Second young master, don't worry, our brother will definitely not disgrace you."
"Call me a major general in the future!"
"Yes, Major General!"
Zhou Rui then said to Song Shenghe: "Big head, in the past two years, you have been wronged by letting you, a high-achieving student who graduated from the Shuonan Army Academy, be my bodyguard."
In the future, you will be the commander of the First Advance Corps, and the First Tier Corps has always been the main force of our garrison brigade, although now the First Tier Corps is completely new, but I hope that the First Tier Corps will still be the main force of the garrison brigade in the future! β
Song Shenghe excitedly saluted Zhou Rui and said loudly: "Don't worry, the young general, I will never live up to the expectations of the young general, and I will definitely turn the first step corps into the main force of our garrison brigade again!" β
"By the way, big head, if you have classmates or friends who are not happy with the Shuonan Army, I am willing to sweep the couch to welcome you.
Next, our garrison brigade will carry out a series of expansions, and there is a great need for officers with strong military skills. β
The Shuonan Army Academy in Shuonan Town can be regarded as the most formal army military academy in the Han and Tang Empires.
Because of the existence of the Shuonan Army Academy, the combat effectiveness of the Shuonan Army has soared in recent years, and in the twenty-four feudal towns of the Han and Tang Empires, there is a faint posture of the first army of the feudal domains.
However, due to the increasing number of cadets in the Shuonan Army, it is inevitable that the interests of those hereditary military leaders in the Shuonan Army will be touched, so many military cadets who graduated from the Shuonan Army Academy will be excluded and suppressed in the Shuonan Army, so that a large number of military cadets from the Shuonan Army Academy have been exiled to other feudal towns.
As far as Zhou Rui knew, there were many famous generals in the future feudal towns, all of whom graduated from the Shuonan Army Academy.
Song Shenghe was excluded from the Shuonan Army and left the Shuonan Army in anger, followed his uncle Song Limin, and came to Ganyang City in Fengwu Town.
"Major General, it's been several years since I left Shuonan Town, and my former classmates and friends have also lost contact, and I don't know what their situation is now.
However, I can write to them and give them a briefing on our garrison brigade, but I don't know if anyone would like to come. β
"Then give it a try, I'm looking for talent now, as long as there are cadets who graduated from the Shuonan Army Academy who are willing to come to our garrison brigade, everyone will get a settling-in fee of 3,000 silver coins!"
Then Zhou Rui said to the last personal bodyguard Huang Zhigang: "Scar, you were the platoon commander of the guard battalion before, and you also have experience in leading soldiers, so I want to give you a difficult task to form the Fourth Infantry Regiment of our garrison brigade."
Of course, in order to avoid trouble in Fengwu Jiedu Mansion, it will be called the baggage regiment of the garrison brigade to the outside world. β
Huang Zhigang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a happy face: "Thank you for the cultivation of the young general, I will definitely be the commander of this regiment, and I will not disappoint the young general!" β
Zhou Rui nodded, "Including the baggage regiment that is about to be formed, that is, the fourth infantry regiment, the four infantry regiments of our garrison brigade, will be reorganized in the next period of time."
I intend to expand the strength of each infantry regiment to more than 3,000 men, and each infantry regiment will have five infantry battalions, an artillery battalion, a baggage battalion, and a regimental guard company. β
Zhou Rui's expansion plan made Song Shenghe and Huang Zhigang all shine.
You must know that the infantry regiments of the Han and Tang Empire's feudal towns are generally only more than 1,000 people, and an ordinary infantry brigade may be more than 3,000 people.
The original three infantry regiments of the Ganyang City Garrison Brigade were only more than 1,000 troops.
According to Zhou Rui's expansion plan, the four infantry regiments of the garrison brigade are almost equivalent to four ordinary infantry brigades, so the status of the two incoming regiment commanders will naturally rise.
And the reason why Zhou Rui was in such a hurry to expand the garrison brigade was because when he got up early this morning, Zhou Rui found that the taskbar of the lottery system was refreshed.
Mission: Expand the strength of the garrison brigade of Ganyang City to more than 15,000 people. (A two-star lucky draw card, 20 points)
Seeing this system task, Zhou Rui was actually very puzzled.
You must know that this lottery system was taken from Wei Jie after all, how could Wei Jie complete such a task in the previous life, could it be that the lottery system will specially formulate tasks for the host?
It's a pity that the lottery system did not give an answer to Zhou Rui's questions.
Zhou Rui didn't dig too deep into this, anyway, if there was a task, just work hard to complete it.
According to Zhou Rui's understanding, there are currently more than 1,000 people in the coastal defense fleet of the garrison brigade, and this time he has purchased three warships for the coastal defense fleet, and if he can't get the personnel of the coastal defense fleet, he will have to expand the number of nearly 2,000 people in the future.
The garrison brigade's fortress heavy artillery regiment and guard battalion combined, there were also more than a thousand people.
If the four infantry regiments of the garrison brigade were to be expanded to more than 3,000 men, the strength of the entire garrison brigade would far exceed 15,000 men.
