Section 1: Familiarize yourself with the situation

After Huang Jiashan entered the account, he didn't say too many polite words, but said directly and loudly: "Tongzhou garrison Liu Yunwei takes the order!" ”

When Liu Yunwei heard this, he immediately took Yuan Mingxuan, Lu Ying, Wu Xing, Li Tianhao, Wen Poyu, Wang Dangdang, Gao Hongguang, Huang Fuming, and Zhao Kaishan to kneel down respectfully. After that, Huang Jiashan read the holy decree in public:

"Fengtian carried the emperor and summoned him:

Today, there is Tongzhou garrison Liu Yunwei has repeatedly made meritorious deeds and lived up to my hopes, I am very pleased, so I entrusted the soldiers and horses of the Tongzhou New Army battalion, and ordered Liu Yunwei to sit in the Tongzhou New Army to train the Yamen with the garrison, and train the new army for the imperial court, thinking that it is the shield of China!

On the day Liu Yunwei arrived in Tongzhou, he immediately commanded all the soldiers and horses of the New Army Battalion and the Hanwei Battalion, and stepped up training, and the grain, grass, baggage, and salary required by the New Army Battalion were all raised by the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households on a monthly basis, and the equipment and weapons required by the army were all made by the craftsmen requisitioned and transferred by the New Army Battalion. All the affairs of the new army, the local governors and generals of Gyeonggi have no right to intervene, and Liu Yunwei, the garrison of Tongzhou, directly submitted a letter to the military department in front of me. In addition, the Hanwei Battalion will cancel the battalion number from now on, change the battalion number to the Hanwei Army, and guard Tongzhou; The soldiers and horses of the Hanwei army are not under the jurisdiction of the local governor, and are directly under the orders of the military department!

The reason why I worked hard to run the new army camp in Tongzhou was only to obtain a division of tigers and wolves, so that I could go north to Liaodong in the future, exterminate Jiannu, protect the pillow of China, and defend the hometown of Yanhuang! Tongzhou garrison Liu Yunwei and the soldiers of the whole army must not live up to my hope! Chin this! ”

Liu Yunwei and everyone were stunned on the spot after listening to it, just looking at the content of Emperor Wanli's holy decree, it was obvious that Tongzhou had been turned into Liu Yunwei's fiefdom, not only all the soldiers and horses, money, food, and equipment of the new army camp were all sent to Liu Yunwei, but the follow-up investment was also directly allocated by the imperial court; Moreover, as long as it is related to the affairs of the new army, the local governor can't control it, what is the matter that has anything to do with the new army? That's not what Liu Yunwei said? With this holy will, then Liu Yunwei is the soil emperor of Tongzhou, and he is also the soil emperor who will have more than ten or two hundred thousand troops in the future!

Huang Jiashan looked at Liu Yunwei, who was still in a state of trance, and said: "Little general, Your Majesty's holy decree can be said to be the emperor's grace, and the weight of it must be understood by you even if I don't say it." Speaking of this, Huang Jiashan stretched out his hand and motioned for Liu Yunwei and the others to get up and speak first, and then continued: "I won't hide it from you, Your Majesty's time is probably short, and the Jiannu of Liaodong has always been a thorn in Your Majesty's heart, although Your Majesty knows that you can't see the day when Jiannu will fall, but you still want to do something for the successor monarch, this Tongzhou camp is a killer feature that Your Majesty has painstakingly managed for the successor monarch!" Yunwei, the reason why Your Majesty will use you and the soldiers of the Hanwei Battalion so much is because of your bloody battle against Jiannu in Liaodong and your undying life, and because you and Jiannu have a deep blood feud, and hand over the new army camp to you, Your Majesty can rest assured! ”

Liu Yunwei nodded heavily and said, "Lord Huang, don't worry." Since His Majesty has entrusted me with such a heavy burden, then Yun Wei must do his best to train a tiger and wolf army that will win all battles in the shortest possible time! ”

Huang Jiashan was very pleased and said: "I believe that Yunwei you will be able to do it." Okay, Yunwei has just arrived here in Tongzhou, and there will definitely be a lot of military affairs to deal with, so I won't get in the way here. If there is any difficulty in the future, you can tell me, and Master Li Linbin and I will definitely do our best to help you. ”

Liu Yunwei couldn't help but be a little moved when he heard this, and said: "Thanks to Lord Huang, Yunwei is grateful!" ”

Huang Jiashan smiled, and then said with a straight face: "Yunwei, it is not for nothing that Master Li and I help you so much, we want to repay it!" ”

Liu Yunwei was slightly stunned and asked, "What kind of return do adults want?" ”

"I want you to lead a large army to annihilate the entire Jiannu clan for me, and no one will be left!"

"Your Excellency?" Liu Yunwei didn't expect Huang Jiashan to say such a thing, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"I am the secretary of the military department, and Jiannu ran rampant in Liaodong during my tenure, which is a humiliation to me, the secretary of the military department! In the future, in a hundred years, what will history books say about me? The history books will write me as a mediocre and incompetent person, a waste who has lost his city and land! Kill! Kill all these despicable lowly breeds and raise the prestige of our country! ”

After sending Huang Jiashan away, Liu Yunwei was still sighing at Huang Jiashan's words in his heart, thinking: "It seems that Lord Huang is still a little enthusiastic, and the weight of the Qingshi Festival is really heavy!" ”

At this time, Lu Ying said on the side: "Big brother, should we first find out the situation of the new army camp?" ”

Liu Yunwei thought for a while and said to everyone: "In this way, let's all act separately and try to save time." ”

Everyone clasped their fists and took their orders, waiting for Liu Yunwei's dispatch.

Liu Yunwei walked to the bookcase, unfolded the map of Tongzhou, and said: "Lu Ying and Wu Xing, from today onwards, the two of you will immediately check the situation of the new army in Tongzhou, and I will know everything about the new army before Chinese New Year's Eve; Li Tianhao, you immediately reorganize the 180,000 captives, I want to know before Chinese New Year's Eve how many of these captives have families among those displaced people, and how many are alone, and be ready to merge these 180,000 troops into the Hanwei camp; Huang Fuming, you immediately check the situation of the 100,000 displaced people, and I will know before Chinese New Year's Eve how many families these displaced people have, and how many military households and soldiers can be provided; Zhao Kaishan and Wang Dangdang, the two of you immediately checked the losses of the 1,000 headquarters of the Hanwei Battalion, and prepared for the large-scale expansion of the Hanwei Battalion; Wen Poyu and Gao Hongguang, you two will immediately verify all the land in Tongzhou, and I want to know before Chinese New Year's Eve how much land there is ownerless, how much land the gentry have encroached upon, how much land the officials occupy, and how much land the local people have! Lord Yuan, I need you to mobilize manpower in the army to form a special intelligence collection organization, which is specifically responsible for collecting information on the construction of slaves and taking into account all parties, and in addition, you will hand over all the firearms craftsmen you brought back to Master Chen, and I will hand over all the equipment construction and logistics affairs to Master Chen in the future; Master Chen, from today onwards, I want you to immediately straighten out all the craftsmen in the camp, and make every effort to produce fine guns, all kinds of artillery, armor, heavy spears, horse knives, horse lances, and the rest of the swords, guns, swords, and halberds, and I want you to fill the arsenal of the new army camp in the shortest possible time! ”

After finishing speaking, everyone was stunned by Liu Yunwei's arrangement, this is to do a big job in Tongzhou!

Liu Yunwei looked at the people in front of him and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, since Your Majesty handed over the Tongzhou New Army to us and handed over this great bargain to us, then we can't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and we must firmly hold everything in front of us in our hands in the shortest possible time!" One year! After the Spring Festival, at most a year, I will see the Hanwei army fully loaded and ready to go! ”

Yuan Mingxuan, Lu Ying, Wu Xing, Li Tianhao, Wen Poyu, Zhao Kaishan, Wang Dangdang, Gao Hongguang, and Huang Fuming were all enthusiastic and hugged their fists to take their lives.

Liu Yunwei's heart was also surging, and he said: "Okay, let's go and get busy, and when everyone understands everything, our Hanwei Army will begin to expand!" ”

Everyone received the order together, and then they mobilized their own people to get busy. In the following days, Yuan Mingxuan, Lu Ying and others worked together, traveled around Tongzhou every day, and moved the camp of the Tongzhou New Army from the east of Tongzhou City to the side of the Hanwei Army garrison. Seeing that the soldiers and horses from all sides had been gathered, Liu Yunwei personally planned a new battalion: The entire Hanwei army was still divided into nine battalions, and after the expansion in the future, the original eight thousand headquarters would be expanded into guerrilla generals' headquarters, and these eight guerrilla generals' battalions would be built around Liu Yunwei's garrison camp on the plain south of Tongzhou City and on the west bank of the Grand Canal.

During this period, Huang Jiashan also sent people several times to send grain, grass, and baggage, as well as some necessary supplies for the army; Li Linbin even rushed over in person in a carriage, and accompanied by Liu Yunwei, he looked around the camp and learned about the progress of the Hanwei army.

Li Linbin saw that all the affairs of the Han Wei Army were being carried out in an orderly manner, and Liu Yunwei was in command of the Chinese army, so he laughed out loud and said to Liu Yunwei: "Haha, Yunwei, I said to Huang Shangshu before I came, I am afraid that you will not be able to hold up this Tongzhou camp for a while, and now it seems that we are too worried." Yunwei, I think you are a rare handsome talent, and in the future, the heavy task of waving the army north and defeating Jiannu will be entrusted to you! ”

Liu Yunwei couldn't help but blush when he heard this, and said: "My lord has won the prize, don't you know how many catties and taels Yunwei has?" I'm also chasing ducks to the shelves, if it weren't for the support of my brothers, I guess I would have been at a loss. ”

Li Linbin waved his hand and said: "Then you have to be in command, if you don't have to coordinate the overall situation, how can the affairs of the new army camp go so smoothly now?" Yunwei, don't be too modest. ”

After speaking, Liu Yunwei accompanied Li Linbin to look around. It was not until the afternoon of that day that Li Linbin returned to Beijing satisfied.

In the following days, Liu Yunwei led the officers and soldiers of the Hanwei Army to be busy until the eve of Chinese New Year's Eve. The local officials, gentry, and common people in Tongzhou have completely become bystanders, and they are completely indifferent to what the Hanwei soldiers are doing. Those people were still just holding on to the excitement, while the local officials and gentry in Tongzhou were full of worries, not knowing what this new garrison master was going to do and whether it would infringe on their own interests.

For a time, Tongzhou seemed to be in full swing, but in fact, there was an undercurrent.
