Yu Mingjun didn't ask Qian Taiduo why he built a wooden warship the size of a treasure ship.

This is Liu Xia's military secret, Yu Mingjun, as the governor of the navy, naturally knows the purpose of this matter, for now, compared to the construction of the navy, the construction of these treasure ships is more important.

After another half an hour, Yu Mingjun and Qian Taiduo talked for a while, and Yu Mingjun left the shipyard with a few personal guards and returned to the military base of the North Sea Fleet.

Since the White Dream Tiger recovered Hammer Island, he built Hammer Island into an overseas base. To monitor the security of the sea area, a squadron of men and horses is assigned to guard the Hammer Island, and their task is to patrol the security of the surrounding sea area.

And the pirates who came down from Hammer Island, after so many days, have basically adapted to the bad environment here. also slowly melted into the water army. Life is much better now than it used to be on Hammer Island. Most people are happy, and of course there are some who are unhappy, that is, Li Dazhui and the one-eyed dragon.

After all, Hammer Island is his shelter, he has a deep affection for Hammer Island, and he has asked Bai Menghu to let Bai Menghu hand over the defense of Hammer Island to him, even if he is allowed to serve as a squadron leader.

It can be seen that Hammer Island has a high status in Li Dazhui's heart.

The result is obvious, Bai Menghu will not agree to Li Dazhu's request at all, let alone let him personally go to Hammer Island to defend, even if he lets those pirates in the past go to Hammer Island, Bai Menghu will not agree. Bai Menghu naturally knew the significance of Hammer Island to Li Dazhui and the others, so he couldn't let them go to Hammer Island yet.

As for why the one-eyed dragon is unhappy, this has to say that Zhang Wei, the one-eyed dragon is now a scout of Nu Haiwei, and his boss is Zhang Wei, so it can be seen that his life is naturally not very good. Zhang Wei is very strict with the one-eyed dragon, of course, this is not for revenge, Zhang Wei understands the qualifications of the one-eyed dragon, so he wants to train it into a powerful scout, so as to enter the Eagle Yangwei in the annual Eagle Yangwei selection and be called a member of the Eagle Yangwei.

Zhang Wei knew that he would not have a chance to go to Eagle Yangwei, so he wanted the One-Eyed Dragon to help him fulfill this wish. Ying Yangwei has always been a dream in Zhang Wei's heart. Being able to enter the Eagle Guard is also a dream for many scouts. But this one-eyed dragon obviously didn't have the slightest interest in this so-called Eagle Yangwei, so Zhang Wei became angry, so he began to be more strict with the one-eyed dragon, and forced him to participate in the selection of Eagle Yangwei.

So the one-eyed dragon was tragic, and now every night he was as tired as a dead dog. I can't get up from my bed.

The Laizhou Navy Corps recruit battalion received an order from the Logistics Department to continue to recruit troops and give the Navy a sufficient number of soldiers. As a result, the recruitment notices of the new battalions of the navy began to be posted in various counties under the jurisdiction of those prefectures in Shandong. Recruits are generally carried out by local garrison regiments.

Because when recruiting recruits last time, many people wanted to sign up, but there were relatively few recruits, so as soon as the list was posted this time, those who failed to enter the naval army recruit camp last time signed up one after another.

At present, there are no new barracks in other places, except for the Luoyang Recruit Camp on the outskirts of Luoyang and the Xi'an Recruit Camp on the outskirts of Xi'an. So for example, people in Shandong, Jiangsu and other places in Henan have no chance to enter the recruit camp to become a glorious Pingbei Army, and Shandong has a naval army new battalion, so people in Shandong have begun to sign up for this naval army new battalion, although now the status of the naval army in the Pingbei Army is not high, and there is only one general in a separate military branch. But in any case, this is also part of the Pingbei Army.

In order to be able to enter the Pingbei Army, some people from Shandong even traveled thousands of miles to Luoyang, waiting for the Luoyang new barracks to recruit troops, and then participate in the recruitment of the new barracks.

Luoyang

Liu Xia was looking at the commanders of the garrison corps in some places as they handed over the documents to Liu Xia's hands layer by layer. These were naturally requests for Liu Xia to set up a new barracks in the local area.

Now Liu Xia's territory is quite large, but there are only three camps in the recruit battalion, and only two are army recruit battalions and one is the navy recruit battalion. Therefore, men in many places can't find a place if they want to join the army.

Some people approached the local garrison and asked for them to be included in the Pingbei Army, but the local corps did not have the courage to recruit privately. Because the right to recruit soldiers is only held in Liu Xia's hands, if he does not authorize the Military Division, and without the military order of the Military Division, no one dares to recruit even one soldier privately.

Otherwise, there is a high risk that they will be caught by the inspectors and then entered into the so-called military court, where they will be convicted of treason. That's right, the crime of recruiting soldiers without permission is so big.

And once convicted of treason, it is naturally a death penalty, and it is impossible to be lenient at all.

Therefore, although the enthusiasm of the local people was very high, and some even paid the local garrison officers, they did not dare to make any claims. Maybe one day he will be found out and recruited privately, and the nine clans will be punished for the crime of treason.

In the end, these officers really couldn't withstand the pressure of the local people, so they began to report to their superiors, and the captain of the garrison corps in the county town reported to the commander of the prefecture, and the regiment commander reported to the brigade commander, and finally the brigade commander sent the request letter to the Luoyang Military Division, and then the Military Division saw that this matter was really important, and they did not dare to make claims in the Military Division, so they handed it over to Liu Xia.

On the territory of the Pingbei Army, only Liu Xia can decide this matter.

"At present, the Pingbei Army does need a large number of soldiers and horses, and it is really not possible to set up new barracks to recruit soldiers and horses in Luoyang and Xi'an, after all, more people are farther away from these two places, and some people cannot come here at all."

At this moment, Liu Xia called Chen Liu, the chief of the Military Division, Meng Yu, the chief of the Supervision Department, and Wang En, the chief of the Logistics Department, to his side. Chen Liudao: "I don't know how many new barracks the prince wants to set up?" "The recruit battalion belongs to the Logistics Department, but it is the Military Service Department that only gives the recruit camp a quota for recruitment. So the boot camp is equivalent to being managed by two departments.

Wang En of the Logistics Department also raised his head and looked at Liu Xia, although one more or less recruit battalion has no impact on the Logistics Division, and even the absence of a recruit battalion has no impact on the Logistics Division. But after all, this new barracks belongs to the Logistics Department, so he Wang En has to pay attention to it at all times.

Liu Xia thought for a while and said: "Now the Pingbei Army includes Shaanxi, Sichuan, Henan, Shandong, Nanzhili, Hebei, Huguang, Shanxi and other places, but there are only Luoyang New Barracks and Xi'an New Barracks, as well as Laizhou Navy New Barracks. It's really not enough. Therefore, this king definitely set up five new barracks in six places: Chengdu, Sichuan, Jinan, Shandong, Xuzhou, Fengyang, Taiyuan, and Xinyang, and filed them in the Logistics Department. As for the number of recruits, it will be finalized by the Military Department and reviewed by this king. ”

Orders were sent to the local garrisons in all localities, telling them that if any of the people wished to join the army, they were to be given the location of the nearest recruit camp. Among them, the Chengdu new barracks is responsible for recruiting troops in Sichuan, the Jinan new barracks is responsible for recruiting troops in Shandong, and the Jinan new barracks and the Laizhou new barracks recruit different types of troops, one is only responsible for the navy, and the other is responsible for the ordinary army. The Fengyang Recruit Battalion is responsible for Fengyang Mansion and Xuzhou and other places. The Xuzhou Recruit Battalion is responsible for the Central Plains, and the Xinyang Recruit Battalion is responsible for the Huguang area north of the Yangtze River, as well as Nanyang, Xiangyang and other places. The Taiyuan Recruit Battalion is responsible for the recruitment task in Shanxi. As for the question of which regiment to deliver the soldiers and horses recruited by the new barracks, the Military Division is responsible. ”

If these new battalions are added, then the recruitment speed of Liu Xia's Pingbei Army will be faster, and the quality of the recruited soldiers will be even higher. As for the two new barracks in Shandong, there is no conflict, as for whether they want to enter the army of the Pingbei Army or the navy, it can only depend on their personal preferences, those who like to be on the sea will enter the Laizhou new barracks, and those who like to be on land will enter the Jinan new barracks. If the Jinan new barracks are established, the popularity of the Laizhou new barracks will gradually decrease.
