Hainan Island is regarded by Chen Zijian as the resource base for the next development of Zhangjiacheng, and he has checked the relevant information and concluded that before attacking Hainan Island, Chen Zijian wanted to solve a back road problem, in fact, there is no back road, and the closest mainland to Hainan Island is the Leizhou Peninsula.

Chen Zijian's strategy was to attack both on land and at sea, leaving two corps to protect the safety of Zhangjiacheng, the other three corps to attack the Leizhou Peninsula, and the other navy to be led by Chen Zijian himself.

Before departure, it is necessary to commend the volunteers, during the outing, the volunteers can be said to have gained a lot, some volunteers have made merits, get the opportunity to be promoted, some volunteers have also earned a lot of silver coins, the following regiment reported the credit, Chen Zijian asked Zhang Youde to take people to be responsible for cleaning up.

At present, Zhangjiacheng's cultural level, as far as Zhang Youde can lead a group of teaching gentlemen to count well, these Chen Zijian is relieved to hand them over.

The second floor of the tea house in District A, which belongs to the high-end consumption place in Zhangjiacheng, the first floor of the second floor today, was wrapped down by Chen Zijian as an away place, who to invite? Of course, it is a few regiment commanders and volunteers who show courage on the battlefield, these will be the foundation of the volunteers in the future, Chen Zijian wants them to work for themselves, and they must usually have relevant movements, otherwise people will fight for him.

If Chen Zijian is only commanding in a high position, regardless of the people below, this may also cause an embarrassing situation where the soldiers do not know the generals and the generals do not know the soldiers, and there is a good counterexample here, Chongzhen Tianzi, who was forced to death by Li Zicheng not long ago, Chen Zijian is 100% sure that this master has never seen the low-level officers and soldiers fighting outside, and the low-level soldiers fighting outside have never seen the high-ranking Son of Heaven, plus the civilian officials usually suppress the army, the consequence of this is from the body to the heart, and the low-level army has no possibility of loyalty.

Such an army was attacked by the Tartars, and the result was that they were crushed with one blow, losing their armor, they did not have the will to die in a decisive battle with the enemy, and then the northeast was defeated and retreated.

Such a terrible example, Chen Zijian naturally has to learn from the lessons learned, isn't this in the name of the best chief, invite the volunteers who are fighting outside, well, the volunteers with great merits, after all, the total number of volunteers is more than 30,000, Chen Zijian can't invite all the volunteers in such a small place as the teahouse.

The number of volunteers invited this time exceeded 200, all of whom were men with outstanding military achievements, and although some of them had made great military achievements, they encountered the enemy's desperate counterattack during the battle, resulting in disabilities.

The disabled volunteers will withdraw from the queue, this is no way to do things, the task of the volunteers is to expand externally, the life of the seriously injured volunteers after they quit, Chen Zijian has already thought of their way out, and at the same time, it is also for the people who quit the volunteers in the future to have a job to support their families, so that they will not be disabled and die after quitting the volunteers.

The matter of the placement of the disabled volunteers will be talked about later, in short, Chen Zijian will not be ungrateful, leave his brothers who worked for him, and Chen Zijian will be generous to the outsiders who have nothing to do with him, and it is impossible not to be anxious about his brothers.

Chen Zijian was the last to appear, and behind him were several women, and this banquet was a private banquet, which could be attended by family members.

"Bang Bang!"

The applause started with Li Xian, and then the audience welcomed Chen Zijian's applause.

Behind him, Xiao Qiao Xiaoxi held his hands and followed nervously behind, this kind of high-profile thing, they have not experienced it, and it is inevitable that they will feel weak in their hearts, even if Chen Zijian blocks the eyes of most people. Li Zhuer naturally didn't follow because she was pregnant.

Wu Xiang's will not be much better, and he followed nervously behind him, this kind of banquet Chen Zijian took them out, undoubtedly to show their identity.

On the second floor of the teahouse, all the high-ranking volunteers were included, including Zhang Youde and Zhang San, who managed Zhangjiacheng.

Chen Zijian came to the temporary high platform, waved his hand to the people below, and the scene suddenly quieted down, "This is my private invitation to everyone's banquet, there are no rules here, many brothers go out this time, make contributions, and the merits will be cashed in the barracks in a few days, not much to say here, come over this time, bring you a little gift, okay, start the banquet!" ”

When it comes to Chen Zijian's status, there is a class, which is inevitable, and Chen Zijian can't change it, of course, this situation is beneficial to him, why should he change, everyone is equal and sounds good, that's it, human beings have hierarchies at all times, this is an indisputable fact.

Chen Zijian's gift to everyone is the latest stamped gold coin, the price of a gold coin is worth one hundred silver coins, according to the level of the position, everyone has a different amount of gold coin reward, such as Li Shi, get a reward of fifty gold coins, a brother who was originally an ordinary volunteer, can only be ten gold coins, the reward can not be the same for everyone, such egalitarianism is not conducive to struggle. A Legion Commander is the same amount of gold as a regular Militia.

This is the first time that gold coins have appeared on the market in the name of rewards, belonging to the first batch of gold coins, the gold coins rewarded by Chen Zijian on the spot, to ten or twenty years later, have important collection value, and their value has increased by more than 100 times.

Li Xi "Hehe, chief, I have gained a lot from this outing, and in addition to handing over the warehouse, I specially asked people to select a few good treasures for the chief." ”

The loot was confiscated and entered the warehouse, it was a collective thing, belonging to everyone of the volunteers, and now Li Shi left a few things for Chen Zijian, which went into Chen Zijian's personal pocket, of course, Chen Zijian went to the warehouse to get the seized loot, and no one said anything, in the hearts of the volunteers, these are actually his.

It's just that now Chen Zijian has begun to distinguish between collective and individual interests, the seizure of the volunteers outside, which belongs to the collective ownership of the volunteers, Chen Zijian did not take the spoils home in his private name, every time he took out a large amount of silver in the warehouse, Chen Zijian had an official name, such as the need to mint a batch of gold coins, Chen Zijian issued an order in an official name, and no one could say a word. Because the gold coins were not for Chen Zijian's personal use.

Chen Zijian is a turtle, he doesn't know what to appreciate antique calligraphy and paintings, there are a bunch of these things in the warehouse, Chen Zijian didn't take any of them home, he really can't appreciate these things, jade pendants, hostas and other jade, and a lot of jade carvings, piled up in the warehouse and dust.

In Chen Zijian's eyes, this is a pile of stones, valuable stones, now these values can not be used, now belongs to the war period, this kind of things are not worth gold and silver Chen Zijian's plan is to wait for the war to basically stabilize, and then sell things, although I can't appreciate it, but it does not mean that Chen Zijian is stupid, gold and antiques in troubled times.

Li Shi privately intercepted a few things and gave them to Chen Zijian, this kind of fair and honest bribe is what Chen Zijian can bear, because he is the head of the volunteers, and no one says anything to bribe him from the people below, this is the power of the chief.

A beautifully packaged gift box, I don't know where Li Xi learned it, Chen Zijian opened it and looked at it, it was a probable, maybe, or Yu Ruyi thing, uh, this can't be blamed for his loneliness, he used to be an ordinary person, and he came into contact with this kind of thing.

A valuable jade Ruyi was placed in front of Chen Zijian's eyes, Chen Zijian just couldn't recognize it, but he just thought it was good, this was a whole piece of jade carved out, exquisite, luxurious, and seized by Li Shi when he raided his house.

Chen Zijian: "Well, yes, take it!" ”

This is a gift from his subordinates, Chen Zijian received peace of mind, seeing Li Xian send out the treasure by the chief, Li Hu and several guys have sent things that they think are very treasured, these Li Hu they found someone to appraise it, saying that it was the painting of the predecessor, worth 10,000 gold. The word of so-and-so is worth a thousand gold. What made Chen Zijian break down the most was that a piece of so-called glass wine glass sent by Niu Sheng was amazing to everyone, even if Zhang Youde also felt that it was worth a lot of money.

Chen Zijian was depressed, this kind of green, translucent wine glass, how awkward it looks, has woolen value.

Well, Chen Zijian thinks that he is a turtle, and Chen Zijian doesn't know any of the things sent by the people below, and he doesn't have any appreciative eyes.

Chen Zijian: "Okay, thank you brothers for your kindness. ”

Sit at the head of the main table and the feast begins.

After a while, Chen Zijian got up, followed by two beautiful women holding wine jugs.

"Chief."

"Hello chief."

Chen Zijian: "Brothers, you're polite, I give you a drink." ”

Chen Zijian's private banquet, toasting is nothing in his opinion, but the volunteers at every table who were toasted were as happy as chicken blood, and they couldn't wait to immediately take a weapon to Chen Zijian, and the high-ranking leader toasted himself, what is this? It is not an exaggeration to say that corporal Lixian in ancient times!

As the chief, it is very simple for Chen Zijian to win over a subordinate, and in Chen Zijian's opinion, the volunteers gave him meritorious service outside, and he toasted a glass of wine.

In the eyes of the volunteers, Chen Zijian's behavior is the chief's attention to himself, all the volunteers on the scene used to be low-level people, and they were all people who couldn't get on the stage, but now seeing that they are so favored, Chen Zijian's ordinary behavior is full of loyalty.

Turned around, drank a lot of rice wine, the degree of rice wine is not high, Chen Zijian was not drunk, returned to the main table and started chatting and eating with everyone, the Chinese people's wine table culture is vividly expressed here, Chen Zijian does not have the arrogance of civil officials in this era, he can put down his posture and chat with everyone, and naturally chat hotly.

Chen Zijian began to brag on the wine table, saying something that everyone could not understand, saying that he would build a temple on Mount Everest, worship the sky at the highest peak, use the Pacific Ocean as the inner lake of the volunteers, and go to Australia to eat lobster.

Chen Zijian bragged, a group of flattering guys around him, and the atmosphere was not too good.

What Chen Zijian said, only Zhang Youde could understand on the scene, because Chen Zijian gave him a map of the world, he felt dizzy for Chen Zijian's ideals, but at the same time, he was ready to pay everything for such an ideal, and followed Chen Zijian to open up the living space of the Chinese people, and he was able to do part of it, and his credit was greater than that of generals like Huo Quzhi and Wei Qing.

After reading the world map, Zhang Youde knows that just turning the Pacific Ocean into an inland lake for the volunteers will be a meritorious service for thousands of generations!
