As soon as he heard this, Shi Huiji made a mistake... Almost dropped the revolver to the ground. Fortunately, he is usually known for his shrewdness, and immediately stood up: "Check, mark the ......" What should I say, Shi Huiji was actually stuck for a while, although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, but he didn't expect Liu Chang to directly promote him to the battalion commander.

You must know that he is only a newcomer who participated in the Rainbow Army in the Ruian Campaign, and his qualifications are only a little more than a month and a half after a full battle, which is not as good as the old man in the Red Turban Army, not to mention that now a strong man like Zhou Xiuying, the company commander of the Niudao Company, has been left behind by him.

He really didn't know what to say, it turned out that his most optimistic estimate was that An Hai was expanded into two companies and then separated according to the custom, so that his brothers could be promoted to an officer, but he didn't expect to be promoted himself.

He also heard some rumors before, saying that the Panshi Company was going to be upgraded to an infantry battalion, which was a normal thing, and the Panshi Company was originally the third infantry company formed by the Rainbow Army.

It is logical that Nanxi Company will be upgraded later, but after Panshi Company leaves the Dragon Lance Battalion, what should the vacant company do, everyone says that Shi Yunqing and Qu Jie do not get along well, so it is most likely that he was added to the Dragon Lance Battalion in the retirement season.

There are also rumors that the Fenyong Company will also be expanded into a training battalion, for such a rumor, Shi Huiji also feels very reasonable, the qualifications of the Fenyong Company are very old, and the Panshi Company is the predecessor of the Fenyong Company, and the current Fenyong Company originally had 2780 people, which is more than the number of ordinary two infantry companies.

No matter where the Qing army is captured, it is generally not added to the infantry company, but in the training battalion for a week to two weeks, and then he has a certain ideological understanding of the Hong Army before joining the various infantry companies of the Hong Army.

As for his own An Hailian, how could Shi Jiwei think that he would only be promoted to an infantry battalion after he had conquered the Taizhou capital city under the smoothest situation, so he was confused for a while and finally said: "Mark...... I really don't dare to be! There are more companies in the rainbow army that are older than An Hailian and have strong combat effectiveness, and it is not his turn to steal the limelight in the retreat season, but Liu Chang said: "We can't let honest people suffer, how are you doing in our rainbow army, everyone sees it."

Shi Huiji's performance is good, he carried forward the style of Gao Feng Liang and took the initiative to assign the supernumerary personnel in his company to other companies, the previous Chashan battles, Ruian battles, and Lebei battles have commendable performances, this Taiping attack battle, Anhai Company casualties of nearly 30 people did not collapse, and he could stick to the line of fire, but even he didn't think that he could surpass other companies to be promoted in advance: "Check, our Rainbow Army is more than our Anhai Company's sharp company, such as Niudao Company, For example, Jin Tang Lian is like the second company of the dragon spear ......" but Liu Chang quickly told him: "What you said is also true, but what I ask you is the question of whether you are willing to be the battalion commander, not the question of An Hailian's promotion." ”

"I'm leaving Anhailian?" Shi Huiji was reluctant to leave his old company: "If it is an order to check, I am willing to carry it out." Liu Chang reassured him: "An Hailian is still under your command, but this time it is not simply upgraded by An Hailian, and the establishment of your battalion will be smaller." ”

He told Shi Huiji: "Since our Hongjun wants to appease the localities, we should distinguish between mobile troops and local troops, and this time we are going to use your Anhai Company as the basis to form Huang (Yan) Tai (Ping)

The independent infantry battalion, before conquering Huangyan County, temporarily formed a Taiping independent company and artillery platoon. "However, the history of the Anhai Company is relatively new, and it is not realistic for the Anhai Company to be directly upgraded to an independent battalion, so the battalion headquarters, the Taiping Independent Company, and the battalion artillery platoon were formed together with the assistance of the two old battalions of Longgun and Nanxi."

Liu Chang said it in a fog, but Shi Huiji immediately understood the meaning of Liu Chang's words, that is, he could be promoted to the battalion commander of this Huang (Yan) Tai (Ping) Independent Battalion, but the entire independent battalion was no longer only composed of his Ruian clansmen, Liu Chang wanted to mix sand in it, and complete the lineage of the entire independent battalion to a certain extent.

Therefore, he asked: "Are the battalion headquarters and each company and platoon other companies assisting in the formation of An Hai Company?" He focused on the word "assist", and Liu Chang gave a positive reply: "An Hailian is the mainstay!" Shi Huiji immediately gave a positive reply: "I am willing to die for the inspection point!" ”

He can explain to the Ruian clan relatives in his company that most of the old brothers have the opportunity to be promoted to the next level, in fact, this is a certain kind of promotion, but in the process of upgrading, some more sand is mixed in to realize the lineage of the entire independent battalion.

It's just that he asked for a little more detail: "Where do the replenishment of the Taiping Independent Company and the artillery platoon come from?" Whether it was a captive or a recruit recruited by the Taiping natives. ，…

Liu Chang told him! "Now we have to build a new Rock Camp and a training camp, so the training of the training camp is not enough to distribute, so you can only give half of the prisoners, and you are responsible for recruiting the other half locally, I just reiterate the general principle, that is, it is better to be less than reliable."

With a veteran of the militia like Shi Huiji, there is absolutely no problem in temporarily recruiting a group of Tai civilian regiments to make up the numbers, but Liu Chang believes that the Taiping recruits who have sporadically joined the army are much more reliable than the militia groups that have joined in shares: "Sit down, after the formation of the Huang (Yan) Tai (Ping) Independent Battalion, it will be temporarily responsible for advancing to the east." "That area is a coastal area, and at most there are a small number of militia groups and defeated troops, but on the other hand, these remnants of the army will be much more difficult to deal with than the large number of enemy troops gathered in Taiping County.

Shi Huiji asked about the equipment of the independent battalion, and Liu Chang replied to him: "For the time being, the existing equipment and captured equipment can be used as much as possible, and the equipment of the artillery platoon can use the light artillery captured from the Taiping battle." Shi Huiji agreed with Liu Chang's disposal, although he couldn't get more foreign guns in this way, but a local independent battalion only dealt with the militia and the remnants of the defeated generals, and he didn't use too good equipment, he just asked another thing: "My side is a long nose, what should I do on Shi Yunqing's side?" Shi Yunqing belongs to the same miscellaneous army as him, but he carp jumped into the dragon gate and became the battalion commander at once, where did Shi Yunqing, who was originally more qualified and older than him, go, but Liu Chang told him an unexpected "answer": "Since Shi Yunqing can't cooperate with Qu Jie, then for the time being, he can only hand it over to Sun Huzi to clean up, Sun Huzi's rock battalion in addition to the new second company of Panshi, there is also a shortage of such an infantry company." ”

Shi Huiji and Shi Yunqing sometimes sympathize with each other, so the relationship between the two has always been good, and when he heard Liu Chang say this, he couldn't help but sympathize with Shi Yunqing.

Qu Jie, the battalion commander of the dragon gun battalion, does not have much talent, he plays a role in the dragon gun battalion, and he relies on the company and platoon-level cadres in the battalion for peacetime operations, but he is old, and he is the company commander when the first company of the dragon gun company, the first company of the rainbow army, was formed, and he is an old officer with a gentle temperament, so Liu Chang has always let him stay in his current position.

It's just that Qu Jie has a gentle temperament, and Shi Yunqing, who was temporarily under his command, bullied him for being weak and independent in everything, and the two of them had a little unpleasant quarrel.

But now that Shi Yunqing has fallen into the hands of Sun Huzi, I am afraid that he will have to suffer a lot, Shi Yunqing's strength is that he is a disciple of the Green Camp General, and he has been exposed to it since he was a child, although he is familiar with the tricks of the Green Camp, but who is Sun Huzi? The real green battalion veteran oil, cleaning up the children of the green battalion like him is not a matter of a few words.

Sympathy is sympathy, and he also has some opinions about Shi Yunqing's independent approach to everything, but now he doesn't need to add fuel to the fire in front of Liu Chang, he just asked again: "The rock company has been upgraded to a battalion, that's a good thing, but isn't there three companies missing from the dragon spear?" ”

"Since there is a second company of dragon lance, there is naturally a third company of dragon lance." Liu Chang told him: "The dragon spear company is a unit with some arrogance, but at the critical moment, you still have to look at the dragon lance company!" "There's a third company of dragon lances, that's a good thing." Shi Huiji remembered his Huang (rock)

Tai (Ping) Independent Battalion, although Huangyan is in front, but the formation of the Huangyan Independent Company does not know when: "I don't know when Huangyan County will be defeated, let our independent battalion have a family carnival." ”

"Not far away, not far away!" Liu Chang told Shi Huiji: "Huang is too familiar, the six counties are enough, since you have taken Taiping, how can you miss Huangyan, as long as we clear the border of Taiping County, we will prepare to enter Huangyan, you have a mind to prepare, after taking Huangyan, your Huangtai independent battalion will not go north for the time being, so concentrate on guarding Huangtai and Huangtai counties." Shi retired Ji mentally prepared: "Check rest assured, you don't let honest people suffer, honest people don't let you suffer, we Shi someone will never live up to your love, this Huangyan Taiping County will definitely guard the golden soup city for you." "The two big counties of Huangyan and Taiping are the essence of Taizhou Prefecture, and there is nothing dissatisfying about being able to lead a battalion of people in this kind of place.

Liu Chang explained again: "You can just know this matter in your heart, and don't convey it to the public for the time being, if there is any nonsense outside, I will only hold you responsible." Shi Huiji nodded, knowing that Liu Chang was driving people away, and immediately gave Liu Chang a military salute: "The mark must live up to the expectations of the inspection." ”

After he stepped back, Liu Chang played with the quill, but he knew that he still had a lot of meticulous work to do, and this administrative work was much more difficult than fighting with horses.

Next, he had to meet with the main cadres of the Hongjun, and there was a general arrangement for this expansion, but when he was thinking about this, Sun Huzi sweated profusely and reported a great news: "Fifth Master Ge and Ye Niangzi have landed on Yuhuan Island."
