The silver bottle burst through the water slurry, and the iron rider stood out with the sound of knives and guns. ------- Bai Juyi's "Pipa Xing"

Lingling County has a total of eight counties and five county-level marquis, namely Quanling County, Lingling County, Yingdao County, Lingdao County, Shi'an County, Yingpu County, Taoyang County, Xiangxiang County, Chong'an Houguo, Duliang Houguo, Fuyi Houguo, Zhaoyang Houguo, and Haoyang Houguo, occupying a large area such as Yongzhou in Hunan and Guilin in Guangxi on the modern map. Quanling County is the political, economic and cultural center of Lingling County, the thoroughfare of Hunan, Guizhou and Guangdong, and its status is extremely prominent, and it is also a place where soldiers of all dynasties must fight. After Chen Long took over, he set up a temporary military and political leading group, and sent a notice to the counties in the name of Lingling Taishou, and within a few days, the congratulatory documents of the counties and the Hou State arrived one after another, and the lower-level officials went to the county government to pay their respects, Chen Long took the leading group to meet and comfort them one by one, and asked about the losses of the Yellow Turban army and the agricultural and mulberry and public security in the counties. Later, Chen Long simply let Liu Xian be solely responsible for receiving officials, and he could report everything to Liu Xian about internal affairs.

The good news was that Liu Yong returned with some remnants, and Chen Long also let him join the temporary leadership group to assist him and Huang Gai in reorganizing the troops. The scattered troops gradually converged, and the major battalions also resumed normal operations. Internal affairs, water conservancy, agriculture and mulberry are all in charge of Liu Xian, assisted by Zhou Budo; The reorganization of the military force was in charge of Huang Gai, assisted by Liu Yong; The security of the city and the four gates of access control are all in charge of Liu Xian. Chen Long felt that the talent was overstretched, and personally went to find Liu Ba, intending to make him the chief secretary of the county, that is, the highest officer and staff officer in charge of the documents. Chen Long knew that Liu Ba had a high personality, he was not optimistic about himself, and he would not easily cling to him, and he could only move Liu Ba's heart by making extraordinary achievements with practical actions.

In addition to the main book, Chen Long had candidates in his heart for the most important positions in the county government, such as the chief of history, the superintendent of the post, the gong cao, and the captain. Changshi is his chief of staff, the prime minister's affairs of the county government, and he is quite authoritative, none other than Liu Xian; Gong Cao is his chief of staff, and his responsibilities are not only in charge of the appointment and dismissal of county officials, but also with the political affairs of Wenyi County, and he can often act as Taishou in his duties, which is none other than Huang Gai; The superintendent is his own judicial officer, who can supervise counties and townships on his behalf, announce government decrees, and also review officials and criminal cases, etc., that is, the combination of the director of the public security bureau, the president of the procuratorate, and the president of the court in later generations, it is none other than Liu Xian; Du Wei is his own military chief, responsible for the military affairs of a county, and is concurrently served by Huang Gai, supplemented by Liu Yong and Zhou Budo, reporting to himself and Huang Gai. Chen Long arranged this way, naturally he was heavy on military affairs and light on internal affairs, he and Huang Gai held military power, and Liu Xian had to reluctantly make it difficult in terms of internal affairs, after all, there was too much shortage of internal affairs talents, and the position of the main book had to be temporarily vacant, Chen Long secretly started Jiang Wan's idea, just to solve the great cause of building the Qinglong Army, it was necessary to find Jiang Wan, a big man in internal affairs, and to share state affairs for himself.

On this day, I was discussing the details of the initial establishment of the Qinglong Army with the leading group, and suddenly my subordinates reported that General Liu Min came to ask for a meeting. Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this, Chen Long called to come up immediately, only to see Liu Min dressed in civilian clothes, his face was full of dust, and he said: "Descend to Liu Min, who has long admired the virtue of Taishou, fortunately escaped from the hands of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and went to Taishou to see Rong, and his subordinates are willing to do their best to serve the dogs and horses!" Liu Min also knelt down with a person behind him, saying, "The criminal minister is willing to abandon the darkness and serve the lord!" When Chen Long looked carefully, it was Yang Huai, and everyone was shocked, but Chen Long was overjoyed, knowing that it must be Zhang Ning who knew that he was outnumbered, and secretly let Yang Huai take refuge in himself. Now is the time to employ people, Yang Huai's Xiaoxiang Gang is in control of important waterway freight channels, just let Yang Huai, this kid, reorganize the Xiaoxiang Gang, so that he can continue to be responsible for making money for himself.

Chen Long comforted the two for a long time, saying that they would let them go back to the original mansion to rest first, and then participate in the government another day, the two were grateful, Chen Long said to everyone: "I know that my brothers are wary of Yang Huai, but I know that he must be loyal to me, please don't be suspicious." Please discuss what position should be bestowed on the two of them? ”

Chen Long had already held a meeting of the leading group and turned it into a democratic work meeting, and the affairs of the county were all discussed collectively, and Chen Long made decisions, and everyone gradually became accustomed to Chen Long's way of dealing with it, and gradually understood what was going on with the political consultation in Chen Long's mouth. Zhou Budo said: "The positions of the two are easy to say, Liu Min can play a specialty in the military, and Yang Huai can play a specialty in business." Everyone nodded, and Chen Long asked Liu Xian to set a position for them. Everyone said that before the yellow scarf left, the grain depot and the money depot had not been robbed, which was very strange, so it was still quite full now, just used to repair the city defense and expand the army, only Chen Long understood the reason, and secretly thanked Zhang Ning in his heart.

After the discussion was over, Chen Long said: "Now there is Liu Xian in government affairs, Liu Xian in the executive affairs, military affairs are the most complicated, and army building is the first priority. When everyone unfolded it, they saw that it read: "Qinglong Army Establishment Plan (Discussion Draft)".

Blue Dragon Army Establishment Plan (Discussion Draft)

The Qinglong Army plans to temporarily set up a corps, under the jurisdiction of four regular divisions, each with 10,000 people, and a special division, with a number of 1,000 people.

Each regular division has a division commander, a deputy division commander, and a division-level military division, and consists of four regiments, the first regiment and the second regiment are combat units, with 3,000 men per regiment, the third regiment is a reconnaissance regiment with 1,000 men, and the fourth regiment is an engineer, baggage, and logistics regiment with 3,000 men. Each regiment has a regiment commander and a deputy regiment commander. Each regiment has a squad, with seven to ten people in each squad, and a squad leader and a deputy squad leader.

The first division of Qinglong is a cavalry division, with division commander Huang Gai, deputy division commander and military division vacancy;

The second division of Qinglong is the archer division, the division commander Liu Xian, the deputy division commander and the military division are vacant;

The 3rd Qinglong Division is an infantry spear division, with division commander Liu Yong, deputy division commander and military division vacancy;

The 4th Division of Qinglong is an infantry shield and sword division, with division commander Liu Xian, deputy division commander and military division vacant.

The Fifth Division of Qinglong, also known as the Special Division, numbered 1,000 people, and the division commander was temporarily concurrently served by the corps commander Chen Long.

Seeing that everyone frowned and thought about it, Chen Long explained: "The corps, division, regiment, and squad are all my newly proposed names, such as a division and a regiment, that is, a cavalry combat unit, with a number of 3,000 people, which is easy to remember. The special division is the division that I specially trained for surprise attacks, assassinations, beheadings, and espionage, and it is the secret weapon in our hands. The training of special divisions, only I have experience here, so I personally trained. Everyone only felt that although the establishment was fresh, it was endlessly aftertaste, and they all nodded their heads one after another. Zhou Bu asked: "Brother Taishou, what is the intention of setting up seven to ten people per class?" ”

Chen Long said: "To fight against the enemy, the most important thing is unity, and if you can form a local battle with more and fight less, you will win every battle." Chen Long actually borrowed from the squad tactics of Qi Jiguang's anti-Japanese warfare in later generations, seeing that everyone was still very confused, he explained: "Each of the seven people in each class, each of them has different combat responsibilities and combat weapons, forming a set of collective tactics, let me give you an example, it doesn't matter if the first team doesn't know martial arts, just be strong." Hold a large bamboo pole several zhang long, or a large set of poles, and sweep the set when you see people. The big bamboo pole is several zhang long, and the bamboo is slippery and difficult to cut, and it is still several times the length of the opponent to split it in half, and then it is split in half, and a split forms a gap, and the opponent still has a life when it is pierced? The front is swept down or put on, and the back spears, bows and arrows, and short knives are long to save the short, short to save the long, the throat should be cut, the heart should be pierced, and the seven people will solve it instantly to one or two people, and then echo and protect each other with other seven-person squads, and you can gain a local numerical advantage. Of course, I'm just giving you an example, and you can develop a new seven-man strategy according to the actual situation. Of course, it still needs to be tempered. Everyone suddenly realized, and they all shouted wonderful.

Seeing that everyone had no big opinions, Chen Long said to Huang Gai: "Gongfu, the stirrups we went to the Sheng family's iron shop a few days ago should come in handy for your cavalry division." Huang Gai stood up excitedly: "I'll go there myself." The other people were confused, and asked what the stirrup was, Chen Long waved his hand and said: "Keep it secret for the time being, the stirrup will appear in the future, and everyone will know for themselves." ”

At the end of the meeting, Chen Long stood up and announced: "Tomorrow morning, we will have a big army in the school field outside Beicheng to light up all our current family backgrounds, and I know what to expect." Everyone stood up and made a promise, and went to the camp to select soldiers and horses.

Chen Long returned to the Taishou Mansion, and saw that only Zhou Budo was still following behind him, so he asked him to sit beside him and said: "Yuan Zhi, you see that my deputy division commander and military division are all vacant, this person is really hard to find, do you have any way?" Zhou Budo said: "Taishou, I have also noticed that it is really difficult to fill so many places at once." At present, it is better to have a shortage than an abundance, or to draw generals from among the lieutenants and dwarves of the previous division commanders, and fill these positions first. ”

Chen Long nodded and said: "There is also a shortage of literature, and there is also a shortage of martial arts, so we still have to find a way to recruit talents." I heard in the city that in addition to the Liu family, there are also the Deng family and the Jiang family, but what are the great sages? ”

Zhou Budo said: "Liu Ba could have been on his own, but unfortunately he was not used by Taishou. The Deng family has Deng Xuanzhi, and the Jiang family has Jiang Wan and Jiang Gongyan, all of whom are well-known in the world. In addition, the Xiangyang Pang family has a large hidden Pang Degong, his son Pang Shanmin did not come out, the Ma family has Ma Bochang, Ma Zhongchang, Ma Shuchang, known as Ma's Sanchang, all famous in the world, and there is no official at present. In addition, there are Nanjun Kuai family with Kuai Liang Kuaiyue, and the Dong family has Dong and Dong Youzai. In terms of military generals, Xiangyang South County is full of people and a wide area, so it can be explored together. Chen Long said: "Can there be a white-eyed Ma Liang in the three constants of the Ma family?" Zhou Budo was puzzled: "Where is there any white-eyed Ma Liang?" "As soon as Chen Long checked his brain, he knew that Ma Liang had not been born yet, so it is estimated that Ma Liang's brothers are not bad, and it is good to be an internal affairs official for himself. There is a shortage of military generals, which is indeed a headache, Lingling is in a safe corner, and there are few outsiders, Chen Long thought that it was time to find a way to recruit some military generals. When I go back to Huangfu in a while, I must ask Huang An to write a letter to Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng, if I can recruit Huang Zhong and Wei Yan, my Qinglong Army will have a new division commander.
