Li Jing opened the camp door to greet everyone, and Ran Tianyi ran over excitedly and threw himself into Li Jing's arms, "Brother Li Jing, that Li Yu under your command bullied me, you have to help me get angry." ”

Li Jing was embarrassed, but fortunately, Aunt Bai grabbed her double ponytail and pulled her off the octopus holding Li Jing's body.

"Dead girl, if you are still a little reserved, get out of the way." Bai Zaixiang scolded angrily.

Bai Jae-young and Bai Zai-yun both covered their mouths and smiled. Ran Tianyu also glared at this wild girl.

Li Jing hurriedly gave a salute to Aunt Bai, and then welcomed everyone into the big tent of the Chinese army, and the other soldiers naturally had other people to receive and settle them.

Li Jing's camp is very well built, which is also Li Jing's habit, in this era, Liaodong is full of primeval forests, and there are big trees with a diameter of more than one meter. Timber is the best building material, the one-meter-thick plank walls are very warm, the stone and cement masonry fireplaces are very warm, and the three-story wooden cottages sit in the middle of the camp, rows of two-story barracks with bunk beds, wooden wardrobes and lockers. Calcium carbide lamps are hung on the roof. Toilets and bathrooms are all available in the camp.

More than 6,000 people were well arranged. This time more than 3,000 people came, and the rich houses were enough to live in.

After Li Jing and Wang Gui finished talking that night, he asked Bai Yu to lay out the map of the staff, clicked on the location of Kaohsiung and said, "I need a tiger general to help me garrison here." ”

"What kind of place is this?" Wang Gui said suspiciously.

"I call this place Kaohsiung, it is a natural harbor, there are a lot of pirates here, as well as immigrants from Fujian and Guangdong, the population is about 50,000, scattered in the southern tip of the entire Dayuan Island, this place is very chaotic and dangerous, basically in a state of anarchy, I will send you here to establish a government, and include these people in the household."

Seeing that Li Jing had allocated such a large area and that it was all plains, Wang Gui really felt Li Jing's sincerity, but he had too few soldiers in his hands.

"Dashuai, there are only 200 Mao soldiers left in my hands, I'm afraid I won't be able to control this place."

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll send five hundred recently graduated midshipmen from the crash course of the Army Academy of the South Australian Maritime Academy to assist you, and they will bring plate armor, Apocalypse rifles, and three-pounder guns. They will recruit troops from the local settlers and form an infantry for a town, and you will be the commander of the town. At the same time, after the land is divided among you, your soldiers can send some of them back to southern Henan to bring everyone's family members, and each adult with family members will be given 100 acres of land, and if the other township party is willing to come, each adult will also be given 100 acres of land. If you don't want the whole family to come, you also want to be a soldier, and the military salary is 36 taels of silver per person per year (the annual salary of the Ming border army is 16 taels of silver). Enjoy the same land division policy, and other benefits are not counted. ”

"Great, Dashuai, you gave me such a good policy, I will definitely find all the township parties, a town with 8,500 regular soldiers, 5,000 auxiliary soldiers, I will give you a full load within a year."

"But conscription is conditional, and not everyone wants it, there will be people from the conscription office who will go with you in this area, and they will be responsible for the selection."

"Don't worry, the mountainous areas of southern Henan are too bitter, and the young people there are all strong, and it is not a problem to recruit tens of thousands of people."

"You are a garrison, and the rank in the military attache is not low, I don't have a set of civil and military forces here, I have my own set of principles for building the army, and the Fujian and Guangdong General Town Government divides the officers into three levels, captains, colonels, and generals. Each grade is divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. Let's give you a major general commander first, 3,600 taels a year, 3,600 acres of land, a mansion, and a four-wheeled carriage. ”

"Xie Dashuai, from now on, he will fight the fire for Dashuai and never give up." Wang Gui was overjoyed, such a high salary was something he never dreamed of. The Ming Dynasty is only more than 60 taels a year of garrison, and it is more than 1,000 taels of silver a year by eating empty salaries.

"But the ugly words are ahead, I will not lose any of what I should give you, and the army is not allowed to do business, buy land, engage in any business activities, and accept property from any other source. Not to mention empty salaries, corruption, etc., the Ming Dynasty has abolished all of them. Because I have already given enough treatment, your children can be guaranteed to go to the South Australian Maritime Academy, and there will be a background in the future, so you must abide by the law, the judicial system here is independent, and I am not good at interfering. I can't protect you if something happens. ”

"The marshal has taken into account all aspects for the lower officer, if the lower official stretches out his hand again, is it still a human being, and it will be dealt with by military law." Wang Gui's face flushed with excitement, and he bowed down with his fists and said.

After arranging Wang Gui and Mao Bing, Li Jing found Li Yu, he was still very satisfied with Li Yu's uncle, this time the task was completed very well, if the weight was light, he was not chaotic, he was a rare handsome talent, and he was a member of the Li family, and at the same time, he could use it with confidence if he was not close to the bloodline.

This time, more than 700 Jiannu war horses, more than 2,000 horses, as well as 3,000 cattle and 700 sheep were seized.

Li Hui and Chen Hu respectively served as battalion commanders, and the supervising army sent additional people, and at present, the first batch of crash courses of the supervising military academy of the South Australian Maritime Academy have graduated, and a total of 50 supervising soldiers can be used. The artillery battalion was newly established and is still being trained on Nan'ao Island, equipped with 60 three-pounder guns, 12 four-wheeled carriages consisting of towed 12-pounder guns and ammunition trucks, towed by two platoons of four horses.

Li Yu was appointed regimental commander with the rank of colonel. The first task given to him by Li Jing was to land on Jeju Island. Establish a base for cavalry training and animal husbandry.

Jeju Island is the largest island in South Korea, located in the East China Sea, across the Jeju Strait from the Korean Peninsula, and is the gateway to the Korean Strait. and Japan's Tsushima Island, which controls the choke point of Japan-North Korea maritime communication. It covers an area of 1845.61 square kilometers and has a subtropical maritime climate.

Historically, Jeju Island has had an independent state, Tamna. Volume 220 of "The New Tang Dynasty Book: The Legend of Wandering Ghosts" records its ancient folk customs: "Vulgar and simple, with big clothes; Summer Cave House, Winter Cave Room. The earth grows grain, and the ploughing does not know how to use oxen, and the soil is raked with iron teeth. "The primitive natives living on the island are called Jeju Yi, Shina, Tammula and Tamna in Korean history books, and they are Daoyi, Dongtu, Dongyi and Juhu in Chinese history books.

Jeju Island (Tamna) was once the territory of the Yuan and Ming dynasties of China, and belonged to China from 1273 (the 9th year of Xianchun in the Southern Song Dynasty, the 10th year of the Yuan Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty) and 1392 (the 25th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty). During the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongols sent a lot of herdsmen to raise horses here, and there are a large number of Mongol descendants here.

After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Goryeo became a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. Goryeo took advantage of this to report to the Ming Dynasty the "Tamna Calculation Table", asking that Tamna be handed over to Goryeo, and the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty on the island belonged to Goryeo, but promised to still pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty according to the management model of the Yuan Dynasty's horse herding.

Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, had a strong farming plot, and formulated the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" policy for recuperation, and was unwilling to expand his territory everywhere, nor did he look down on this remote place, so he agreed to Goryeo's request. However, the Ming Dynasty still intervened in the management of Tamna when needed. The Ming Dynasty followed the old system of the Yuan Dynasty and still used Tamna as a place of exile for prisoners. Ming Taizu exiled the family members of his opponents who failed to compete for the world, such as Chen Li, the son of Chen Youliang, and Ming Sheng, the son of Ming Yuzhen. Ming Taizu also sent the Yuan Dynasty royal family here one after another. The people here were also not very obedient to the management of Goryeo, and there were times when they rebelled.

The principle given by Li Jing to Li Yu was to first blur Jeju Island as the territory of that country, and then directly encircle the best harbor and pastures, and establish Jeju Town, with Li Yu serving as the town guard. In the future, the cavalry of the Li family will be trained here, and the expedition will also be embarked from here, and the Beiyang Naval Division fleet will also be formed here in the future.

Three days later, Li Yu took more than 1,000 cavalry from two battalions and regimental headquarters on board the ship and sailed to Jeju Island, and a newly built 80-ton small flying shear fast communication ship sailed from Yingkou to Nanao Island, and mobilized the newly established artillery battalion to go north to Jeju Island to join Li Yu and be incorporated into Li Yu's cavalry regiment.
