Wei Yang hung the rank of lieutenant colonel on Ye Zhan's shoulder: "Lieutenant Colonel Ye, I remember that it was only 6 years ago, when you were only 14 years old and had just been promoted to corporal squad leader, Chairman Zhang said to you that you have a bright future. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Now that you have the rank of lieutenant colonel, I will send you four more words to show your ambitions. ”

"Thank you, Chairman." Ye Zhan saluted dignifiedly.

Wei Yang came to Andreas again: "Lieutenant Colonel Andreas, you have made immortal contributions to the Yulin Army, showing the perseverance and courage that a Yulin Army soldier should have, and you deserve this lieutenant colonel." ”

"Thank you, Chairman." Andreas replied loudly, "It is the honor of my subordinates to be a soldier of the Yulin Army for the rest of my life. ”

The promotion ceremony is over, and the crossing conference has arranged other work, and the first crossing conference in Chongzhen's nine years has closed.

While Xu Lang and Jiang Beiming had not left, Wei Yang held an enlarged meeting of the Military Commission to discuss the selection of candidates for the independent division.

Xu Lang put a document in front of everyone: "This is a plan that our General Staff took out, and the personnel arrangements of the independent division are all on it. ”

Everyone passed on that after reading this plan, Jiang Beiming served as the commander of the major general of the independent division. Because Jiang Beiming still had a job in Beijing, the division commander was also named, and Han Wantao was appointed as the deputy division commander of the major general and the commander of the Fifth Infantry Regiment. He Chaoyong served as the chief of staff of the colonel of the independent division; Deputy Division Commander, Colonel Lin Zhaolong, Commander of the First Step Corps; Colonel Zhou Lei, commander of the Second Infantry Regiment; Colonel Wang Qianxiang, commander of the 3rd Infantry Regiment; Lieutenant Colonel Ye Zhan, commander of the 4th Infantry Regiment; Lieutenant Colonel Andrias, commander of the cavalry regiment; Lieutenant Colonel Zhao Qi, commander of the heavy artillery regiment.

"Chief of General Staff Xu." Wei Yang closed the document and asked, "The strength of the 10,000 troops of the Independent Division will all be transferred to Yulinbao, how can we explain to the imperial court?" ”

"That's a question." Xu Lang said with a smile, "You have to ask Beiming, he is the division commander and is responsible for explaining the work." ”

"Push the problem on me again." Jiang Beiming complained, "I haven't come up with any good solutions yet, you can talk about any good ideas." ”

"We have discussed this issue in the General Staff." Leng Tianbing said to everyone, "Our cavalry regiment and artillery regiment can be broken up and incorporated into Zhou Lei and Wang Qianxiang's second and third regiments first. The rest of the infantry regiments first opened Yulin Fort in the name of tuntian and workmanship, and then did the work of Lu Baozhong and Guan Mingke later, and the imperial court should not ask about it. ”

"What if the imperial court asks." Lin Zhaolong felt that it was inappropriate, "This is 10,000 troops, I estimate that Lu Baozhong and Guan Mingke dare not hide it, and they will definitely report it to the imperial court." Besides, Yulinbao must also have people from Jinyiwei and Dongchang. ”

"We've thought about it too." Xu Lang stopped joking, "I want the people from the Second General Affairs Department to let off some wind in Beijing, just say that Tartar and Gao Yingxiang have the intention of jointly attacking Xuanfu Datong, and we are increasing our troops to be foolproof." ”

"I have an idea." Han Wantao said, "I consulted Lu Lao, in January this year, Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng led their troops to the east to encircle Luzhou, take Hanshan and Hezhou, and attack Chuzhou for dozens of miles. Lu Xiangsheng led the general army Zu Kuan, guerrilla Luo Dai and other troops to aid Chuzhou, and fought with the Liukou at Wuli Bridge in the east of the city. At the end of the month, some of the rogues returned to business and land from Nanshan. Lu Xiang was promoted to a successful performance, cutting 676 levels, and capturing more than 400 horses and mules. If we take Lu Xiangsheng's relationship, it can be said that these soldiers are going to help Lu Xiangsheng fight the rogue, and the court should not be too worried. ”

"This problem is actually easy to solve, anyway, we went north to prevent the Tartars, and we will always find a way." Xu Lang pointed to the document in front of him, "You have all read this document, our General Staff means that we want Zhou Lei to expand the scale of Yulin Fort, and it is best to build another defense line outside Yulin Fort, what do you think of this matter?" ”

"Xu Lang, do you have a map of Xuanfu Town?" Zhang Guodong asked.

"Yes." Xu Lang took out the map of Xuanfu Town and spread it in front of everyone.

"Where do you want to build another line of defense?" Wei Yang asked.

"Let Zhou Lei say it, this suggestion was made by him."

"We want to build a line of defense here." Zhou Lei pointed to the map and said, "You see, the current Yulin Fort is in the middle of the Longmen Institute and the Changzhong Bunker, and there is the Great Wall outside. Although this position is good for defense, it is not safe. There is a river just outside the Great Wall, which is this black river, and we want to build another fortress city and send a regiment to garrison it on this black river, so that we can form a support. ”

"Sir, my subordinates are willing to take my regiment to garrison Heihe." Ye Zhan asked.

"Ye Zhan, don't be in such a hurry first." Wei Yang said with a smile, "Zhou Lei, it's no problem to build a new castle, but who will pay for the silver, do you have so much silver?" ”

"We've also considered the matter of silver." Zhou Lei replied, "The family must not be able to come up with any money, and now I am afraid that the family is poorer than our Yulinbao." ”

"Hehehehe." Everyone was amused by Zhou Lei's words, and Wei Yang said, "Don't say it's useless, what can you do to solve the matter of silver?" ”

"There's no other way but trade." Zhou Lei looked left and right, "There are no outsiders here, let me reveal a situation, in fact, Wang Qianxiang and I have been in contact with Jin Shang these days." While they didn't get any real benefits, there were a lot of empty promises. They have always wanted to take our tobacco monopoly rights, and we can exchange tobacco for silver with them. ”

"I'm afraid it won't work." Jiang Beiming vetoed, "We have promised to give all the north of the Yellow River to Wu Sangui, if we lose our trust, it is difficult to say how the Wu family will react." ”

"Master Jiang, there is no conflict here." Wang Qianxiang explained, "We promised to give Wu Sangui north of the Yellow River, but this north of the Yellow River does not include Mongolia and Tatars, and Jin merchants can sell tobacco to the Mongols and Huang Taiji." ”

"You want to sell it to the Tartars?" Lin Zhaolong was the first to shout, "What do you think, how can you have this idea?" ”

"There's nothing wrong with that." Wang Qianxiang said, "Liu Jun and Fan Qiuming also agreed, we are selling tobacco, not food and materials." I don't think there's anything wrong with being able to exchange tobacco for Tartar's silver. ”

"I don't agree with that either." Wang Zhaoxing also vetoed, "Beiming and Wu Sangui swore that we can do business with anyone, except for the anti-gold tartars. ”

"Let's talk about this later." Wei Yang made a round, "Let's discuss the issue of the independent division first, when to open it, and how to station." Deputy Division Commander Han, please first introduce the progress of the establishment of independent divisions. ”
