In the tsunami-like clapping and cheering, Chen Wen pinned the badge of an official member of the Huaxia Revival Association to An Youfu, and asked him to go to the statue of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor to offer incense. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Next, the commendation of reserve members continued, but there were only two people who received special promotions like An Youfu, one was An Youfu's subordinates during the war, and the other was from the Yiwu battalion. These three people were all from the left flank of the Ming army that was attacked by the Governor Battalion, and the left flank battlefield at that time was indeed the most difficult, and they relied on their own efforts to drive the soldiers to strictly defend the battle formation, and bought precious time for the Chinese army and the right flank to defeat the enemy in front of them.

Such examples are not uncommon, but non-members naturally do not commend them in internal assemblies, but in the military, and there is no need to take up a limited amount of time during this period.

In addition, there are also a number of probationary members who have been confirmed at the end of the review period, and after becoming full members, they can participate in the internal affairs of the club and obtain the right to promote other personnel to become probationary members. Naturally, there will be more trust in the open and in the dark.

The scale of the Huaxia Fuxing Society is still small, but at the current rate, it will not be long before Chen Wen can begin to further strengthen his control over the Ming army in Zhejiang through this organization.

If you want to succeed, you have to put in the effort, this is the truth that Chen Wen firmly believes. Nothing can be done overnight, but it is possible to speed up the process with some special techniques.

Thinking of this, Chen Wen suddenly had the idea of developing Kong Yanzhen into the Huaxia Revival Association, a seventeen-year-old boy is the easiest to instigate, and it shouldn't take too much effort to develop into it. Once the descendants of Confucius joined, it could strengthen the weight of the Chinese Revival Society in the hearts of Confucian scholars and ordinary people, and help attract more Confucian scholars with ideals and ambitions to join it.

At that time, it is not a eunuch party, even if it is the Donglin Party, which is extremely powerful in the southeast, the party that is equivalent to classmates and linked in the same year will no longer be qualified to be compared with the Chinese Revival Association.

Putting all these thoughts aside, in fact, there are more important things to do right now.

The Zhejiang Martial Arts School has already opened a formal training course for officers of the Guard. Different from the private school-style education method, Chen Wen did not intend to teach a group of Confucian scholars, nor did he intend to create a group of all-round athletes, just like the literacy eradication and training of staff officers in the army, a large class of 50 or 60 people, as long as they can complete the basic coursework and have the ability to execute the assigned work, it is enough.

In this way, through this industrialized process, it was possible to mass-produce the guards who were urgently needed in the old and new occupation areas, and it was their own business to see if they had the need to further expand their knowledge and improve their skills through learning.

In the same way, Chen Wen intends to do the same on the civilian side. However, at the moment, the relationship between teachers and students is a big killer, martial arts has always been not taken seriously, and the traditional idea of being a soldier still exists. After all, although the occupied area of the Ming army in Zhejiang is far away, Chen Wen does not plan to do those things that are too taboo at this stage, unless there is a special need.

Since this was the case, Chen Wen went to discuss with Sun Yu to set up a department for the training of civil officials, which was still nominally under the responsibility of the Yamen of the Jinhua prefect, and its task was also to train civilian officials for the newly occupied areas of the Ming army at a time when the imperial examination could not be carried out and the vast number of meritorious scholars were unwilling to serve the Ming court, so as to rule and strengthen the strength of the Ming army so as to further expand the occupied area.

However, in terms of the way of training, it is the same as when the Zhejiang Martial Arts School trains the officials of the health center, using large class teaching. At the same time, the content of the teaching is more practical than Confucianism, Bagu and the like, and even the distribution of work will be distributed according to the results of such things as money and food, lawsuits and prisons.

It's just that training takes time, and Chen Wen doesn't plan to send out a group of sour talents who don't know anything to let the big clans and small officials from all over the country play with them.

Before the training is completed, the newly occupied areas of Quzhou and Chuzhou will inevitably be helped by the army to share the pressure, and even to implement military control. There is no other reason, the occupation area is about to expand from nine counties to twenty counties in one go, and the stall has suddenly become too big, coupled with the internal friction of Cao Conglong's rebellion, this is already a helpless way.

It was already the middle of November, and because it was found that the Qing army in Chuzhou had not retreated into Wenzhou, but had assembled in Qingtian County, which was adjacent to Wenzhou and guarding the Oujiang River, Chen Guobao was still waiting for reinforcements to converge before marching according to the order. And as the occupied territories have been further expanded, the expansion of the army must also be on the agenda.

The occupation zone was about to be expanded from nine to twenty districts, each of which would have at least one infantry post plus a small number of cavalry and artillery garrisons, and a significant increase in garrisons at more strategically important points. For example, Dongyang County before, such as Anhua Town on the northern line, there are still many such places in the newly recovered areas, and the Ming army needs to control the important areas of each county to ensure the safety of the people.

Even if these are not calculated, the weight of the Zhejiang Ming army in the Ming and Qing dynasties in the balance of the dominance of this anointed land has become heavier, and even has surpassed the weight of the Lu Jianguo group when they regrouped twice after the defeat of the Jiang Shang Division. The Qing army's large-scale encirclement and suppression will inevitably begin, and in order to deal with the Qing army, which is more numerous and more combat-effective, Chen Wen must do his best to expand the army.

According to the plan, the garrison will be expanded by county, and the barracks will be expanded from three to six to seven in one go. At that time, the strength of his Zhejiang Ming army will be nearly doubled, reaching a staggering 20,000 troops!

Some of them will be led by the battalions directly under the town and the four infantry bureaus that participated in the battle of Shentangyuan as the backbone, and some officers and non-commissioned officers will be transferred from the first three battalions, so that the leaders of these new battalions will form combat effectiveness as soon as possible. There was no hurry to break up the old troops, Chen Wen planned to put the recruits into the recruit camp for basic training, and then gradually mix them to prevent them from being exploited by the Qing army during this period.

As a result, the shortfall would be as high as 10,000. Orders have been issued to recruit non-commissioned soldiers, some of whom will be selected from the existing military households, and the rest will be recruited directly in the newly occupied territories.

The expansion of the army will be accompanied by a sharp increase in the pressure on the land, after all, Quzhou and Chuzhou are not as good as Jinhua, but in any case, it is necessary to meet the granting of military fields, military leased fields and vital military merit fields. For this reason, Chen Wen did not mind swinging the butcher's knife at the Manchu civil officials, military officers, and the landlord class who were too much involved with the Manchu government and the Qing army, even if they had Confucian status as dependents.
