Dou Xiangguang immediately said: "That's right! The superintendent said it perfectly. The green camp is the border policy set by the marshal, absorbing those green forest heroes who have the ambition to serve the country and use it for our use. Not only can it play a role in resisting the attack, delaying the attack, and collecting information, but at the same time, it can play an irreplaceable role in reducing our army's own casualties and making the greatest use of the enemy! The suppression of bandits is to be suppressed, but the combination of suppression and supplementation is also essential! ”

Lu Ding nodded slightly, looked around, and said to his subordinates: "Everyone heard what the General Staff officer said just now. That's the next step for us! What does it take to build up the troops? It's not the batch of recruits from the Military Training Bureau who fill in, and the Ordnance Bureau sends weapons into their hands, which is called an army! A qualified army must be an army that has seen blood! If you haven't experienced the grinding of the battlefield, then there is no possibility of taking on the heavy responsibility! What is our whetstone? It's the bandits around who don't obey! I remind you all to be vigilant! But all the armed forces that oppose the commander and do not obey the orders of the dangerous mountain army must be annihilated in the shortest possible time! Take this to train your troops! ”

~~

Tsubaki Island, inside the newly built General Military Palace.

Ye Fu threw the report in his hand on the table, raised his head and rubbed the corners of his forehead, and sighed: "This Lu Ding will really cause trouble for me!" ”

Lu Ding wants to train troops, which is right.

If you want to train with bandits, you can naturally do it.

But when Ye Fu withdrew his troops, he withdrew from the dangerous mountain on the grounds of defeat.

He fought the bandits so flamboyantly that he made a lot of noise. Even the imperial court has heard about it, is this worth it? Does this sound like a lost battle?

"Dashuai, Supervisor Lu also wants to share your worries!" Ye Fu originally didn't mean to blame Lu Ding, Xu Gaozhuo had to speak for Lu Ding, and also gave Ye Fu a step down, he said, "This time it's a big favor from Grandpa Wei!" The imperial court sent an edict that did not mention your defeat and retreat to Korea, but praised you for shooting the Tartar general Daishan and seriously wounding the enemy chief Nurhachi. I also added a bounty to you, which should not care about your defeat. As for Lu Ding's side~~ It can be said that the military salary is insufficient, and there is no way to continue, so he has no choice but to plunder. The last time you asked for the guilt, the court estimated that it would only give you a batch of military salaries. Liaodong is eroded, and you are needed to call the shots everywhere, and the imperial court will not say anything at this juncture. ”

Xu Gaozhuo's judgment was not wrong at all.

The imperial court not only did not pursue the accounts of the retired soldiers, but demanded that the town of Xianshan report the actual number of soldiers and promised to give a full amount of money.

Ye Fu is now deliberately expanding, and the Border Supervision Office alone has been expanded to four field infantry brigades, two field cavalry brigades, two urban defense infantry brigades, plus some independent technical arms. In the case of full strength, it is equivalent to the entire strength of his former troops.

Today, most of them are just an empty shelf, and none of them are in full capacity.

If you use this as a template and ask the court for salary, it is estimated that the first thing the court will do is to send troops to recruit in case Ye Fu really sits in Korea.

Therefore, Ye Fu could not report the exact and accurate number, but instead discounted it and reported an imaginary number of 40,000.

But even so, it was enough to surprise the imperial court.

"Dashuai, this is the list of students to be recruited in the fourth phase of the main school of the Martial Arts Academy, please take a look."

Standing in front of Ye Fu was Ma Xiaoliu, the current deputy head of the Dangerous Mountain Martial Arts School, the general office of the Arms Bureau and the director of the infantry.

Ma Xiaoliu, who has experienced a lot of experience, is much calmer and more capable than before, especially in the position of the general office of the Arms Bureau for a long time, even if he used to have a black eye for teaching and training, but now, he has handled it handily.

Ye Fu took the list from his hand and roughly swept it around.

Ma Xiaoliu is really very secure, on the list of candidates to be admitted, each person's name is marked with their place of origin, age, guarantor, preliminary examination results, and concise comments. At a glance, you can almost understand the general situation of each person with just a glance.

Ye Fu swept the list, looked up and asked Ma Xiaoliu: "The fourth phase of the main school plans to admit ~~ 657 people?" ”

Ma Xiaoliu responded: "Yes, handsome!" According to your intentions, there is now a total of one main school and four branch schools in the Xianshan Martial Arts School. The school admits 500 regular students in each regular class, which is divided into infantry, horse, artillery, engineering, and reincarnation, with 100 students in each subject. Each regular class of the branch admits 200 regular students, of which the Yongbyon branch only has a step course. The Seoul branch has horse and artillery departments, the Haeju branch has engineering and baggage departments, and the Naju branch has sailors and ship departments. In each period, according to the actual situation, the number of soldiers to be recruited will be increased as appropriate. After the later elimination, the number of admissions can basically be guaranteed when the subjects are divided. ”

"Well, that's good." Ye Fu nodded.

Now it is the first month of the first year of the Apocalypse, and in the first month of the second year of the Apocalypse, this batch of fourth-class students will enter the school, and at this time in the next year, the second-class students will also graduate.

These students are the seeds sown by Ye Fu, just like the first batch of students who have already emerged in the army, each of them will be the mainstay in Ye Fu's hands in the future!

Thinking in his heart, Ye Fu was in a good mood.

I looked carefully at the list in my hand, but found something different.

"Jiangxi people?" Ye Fu looked at the place of origin at the back of the list, and then, after looking carefully, he raised his eyebrows, "Why are there so many southerners?" ”

Ma Xiaoliu even misunderstood, he hurriedly said: "Dashuai, with the rules you set, it didn't say that you can't recruit students from other provinces, so you didn't notice this when you were selected. If you don't like it, humble duty~~"

"No, no, no!" Ye Fu waved his hand and said to Ma Xiaoliu, "What's not to like about this?" I'm just curious, it's normal for our school to recruit students from Shandong, and it's not easy to recruit students from Shanxi and Zhili, so why did the influence go to the south for a while? I think there are one-sixth of the southerners! That's a good thing! Great thing! Tell me, how? ”

Ma Xiaoliu heard Ye Fu say this, so he put his mind at ease, touched his head, and smirked: "The handsome man said it earlier, it scared the lowly position!" Actually, this method is really not a humble idea, it's Trinidad's Western guy! ”

"Oh? Trinidad? Ye Fu was surprised, "What does this matter have to do with him?" ”

Ma Xiaoliu explained: "Trinidad is the head of our Western advisory group, you have instructed you to discuss things with him a lot, although you can't be led by the nose in everything, but sometimes, our knowledge is indeed not as big as others!" No, since the Naju branch opened the sailors department and the ship department, Trinidad told me that he was a person from Fujian, and his ability on the ship was much better than that of our landlubbers in the north. If you can get someone over there, then it's called a treasure! It's easy to teach, it's easy to learn! Where was the humble first willing to listen? What about Fujian, a place we have never been to, how do we know how people are? But Trinidad always mentioned it to the lowly office, and said that if the lowly office did not listen to him, he would have to give you advice. He couldn't help it, and he thought that instead of bothering you for such a small thing, it would be better to try to do it first, and if it couldn't be done, he would talk about it. No, I listened to his advice! ”
