Chapter 371: Visiting Zheng Zhilong

Since the Kakado Kingdom took over Hirado Island, several docks on the island have become more and more busy, and even the few small docks that were abandoned in the early years are now full of people.

This was all due to the mobilization of Chinese troops, material transportation, mass immigration, and prosperous commerce.

Due to the large number of Chinese immigrants, the number of residents in Hirado has reached more than 200,000, of which 180,000 are Chinese. Coupled with the presence of troops, it is not surprising that the streets are full of Chinese landscapes.

The headquarters of the 211th Division has been deployed in 10 days, and the organization of the division headquarters has been fully matched.

There are seven main generals in the division headquarters, all of whom are in place, they are the division commander Shi Guangming; Chief of Staff Xu Jiajie, Deputy Chief of Staff Fang Zhongliang, Deputy Chief of Staff Wang Wenxue; Li Ping, Director of the Logistics Division, and Shen Baoxiang, Deputy Director; Director of Communications Ouyang Fontaine.

Because the navy's transport ships were constantly transporting new recruits from the interior to Hirado for assembly, the two battalions that the 211th Division lacked were replenished the next day.

After the entire division was formed, division commander Shi Guangming and chief of staff Xu Jiajie went to the general headquarters to accept the task.

The two of them were received this time by Wu Tiantian, deputy chief of staff of the General Headquarters, and Wu Tiantian was also the chief of staff of the Second Army Corps.

Wu Tiantian said: "According to the emperor's will, the general headquarters will set up thirty recruit divisions, your 211 division is the first recruit division, the main task of the recruit division is the guard of the rear, whether the rear can be stable is related to the success or failure of the battlefield ahead, so don't underestimate your responsibility." ”

Shi Guangming asked anxiously: "Then what is our specific task?" ”

Wu Tiantian said: "There is no specific mission yet, as our territory expands, you will be sent to the newly occupied area, and now you can only stay in Hirado." ”

Shi Guangming said: "You let us stay in Hirado like this, so what's the point of establishing the 211th Division?" ”

Wu Tiantian said: "Master Shi, don't worry! Your 211th Division has a specific mission to stay in Hirado. ”

Xu Jiajie, chief of staff of the division, asked: "Chief of Staff Wu, you have been sold to us, tell me what our task is!" ”

Wu Tiantian said: "Since you are the first recruit division to be established in Hirado, the War Command has given you three tasks for the 211th Division: first, to maintain local law and order; second, to assist the county government in establishing local armed police agencies; Third, it is necessary to assist the Military Management Office in the formation of new divisions. ”

Shi Guangming asked, "Is it these trivial things?" We don't have combat missions? ”

Wu Tiantian said: "You want a combat mission? News came from the front yesterday that our 703rd Division killed the old middle of the Tokugawa Shogunate, Abe Tadaaki, at Mt. Tenmian in Oita Prefecture, and all the 80,000 cavalry of the Tokugawa Shogunate were eaten by us. ”

Shi Guangming asked anxiously: "So, what about the situation of our 201st Division?" ”

Wu Tiantian smiled: "The army of their shogunate is not our opponent, how many days can those sweet potato soldiers jump?" ”

Xu Jiajie comforted Shi Guangming: "Lao Shi, you are now the commander of our 211th Division, don't worry about the affairs of the old troops, our task has been clear, hurry back to the division headquarters!" ”

"Go back to the division!"

……

After Shi Guangming returned to the division headquarters, he carried out a specific division of labor on the tasks assigned by the general headquarters:

Wang Wenxue, deputy chief of staff, and Li Ping, director of the logistics department, are responsible for liaison with the Military Management Office, coordinating and helping them to do a good job in the resettlement of new barracks;

Deputy Chief of Staff Fang Zhongliang was in charge of the security and defense of Hirado;

Assisting the local yamen in establishing an armed police force is a major matter, and Shi Guangming will personally arrest it.

After the meeting, he took Chief of Staff Xu Jiajie to visit Zheng Zhilong.

Zheng Zhilong is now the highest magistrate of Huaxia Prefecture on Hirado Island, and his position is the head of the Hirado District Public Security Committee, and the head of Hirado Prefecture is under his jurisdiction.

Zheng Zhilong received Shi Guangming and Xu Jiajie in the living room of his mansion.

After Shi Guangming sat down, he said straight to the point: "Director Zheng, the main reason we came to your mansion this time is to learn from you about the current local public security situation, and in addition, to solicit Director Zheng's opinion on the establishment of the local police. ”

Zheng Zhilong said: "The law and order environment in Hirado is good. Before we took over Hirado, it was controlled by Matsuura Toshin, and I, as the representative of the Huaxia State in Hirado, was authorized by the emperor to have private arms, and because of my relationship with the Matsuura family, my Zheng family army participated in the local security management in Hirado and protected the interests of my Chinese businessmen in Hirado. Since Hirado belonged to Huaxia, I, Zheng Jiajun, have taken on the task of policing Hirado 100 percent. ”

Chief of Staff Xu Jiajie said: "Pingdo Island is surrounded by the sea on all sides, your Zheng Jiajun has a large number of sea vessels, and you have made great contributions to China in maintaining the safety of maritime transportation, which is obvious to all, and I hope that Director Zheng will continue to carry forward the Zheng Jiajun and make greater contributions to the interests of Chinese businessmen." ”

Zheng Zhilong said: "Chief of Staff Xu's words, Zheng does not dare to agree. I have already said that my Zheng Jiajun was maintained with the authorization of the emperor, yes, he is the team pulled up by my Zheng Mou, and now it is still nominally my personal arm, but it is already an armed force belonging to the Huaxia Kingdom, and I am also coming out for the Huaxia Country and the emperor, not for me Zheng himself. ”

Shi Guangming said: "Director Zheng, you misunderstood, we didn't come to talk nonsense to you Zheng Jiajun this time. We were ordered by the General Headquarters on the island to discuss with Director Zheng about the establishment of a police force, and we mentioned that Zheng Jiajun wanted to use Zheng Jiajun as the backbone force to establish a police force to maintain local law and order. ”

Zheng Zhilong said with a smile: "It turns out that this is what the two of you mean, I, Zheng someone, have indeed misunderstood, if you offend the two of you, please also ask the two Haihan." ”

Xu Jiajie smiled faintly: "It's all because we didn't express it clearly." ”

Shi Guangming said: "Our 211th Division is an army, and the defense of the sea still depends on the strength of the Zheng family's army. We need to know about your Zheng Jiajun. ”

Zheng Zhilong said: "If you want to know my Zheng family's army, you still have to go to my barracks." ”

Shi Guangming said: "It's free today, today we are here to visit your house, as the security forces of Hirado, we will inevitably come to disturb Director Zheng often in the future." ”

"Well said, well said."

Xu Jiajie asked: "I heard that there is a strong naval army in Hirado, how is the situation of this naval army now?" ”

Zheng Zhilong explained: "That's true. The Hirado Matsuura Navy is one of the most powerful naval divisions of the island nation's navy. At the time of the Battle of Tanura, the activities of the Motoko, and the Wako, the naval power of the Matsuura Navy was known. They were defeated by the Korean navy during the retreat of the Imjin Great Patriotic War 50 years ago, and then collapsed and withdrew from the island navy to become a fleet of the Hirado clan of the Matsuura family. ”

Shi Guangming asked with concern, "How is this fleet now?" ”

Zheng Zhilong replied: "Since our Chinese army drove the 3,000 feudal soldiers of Hirado Island out of Hirado, this feudal fleet has also existed in name only, and most of the ships of the feudal fleet have been taken over by me, and a small number of their men have been retained by me, and many people have fled with the 3,000 feudal soldiers. ”
