37.Chapter 37: Expansion of the Army

Chapter XXXVII

The life thinking brought by this rain is not only Luo Bingzhang, but there is another person who is also entangled, and this person is Zeng Shihe. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

From the day he was rescued by Yang Dongfang, he enjoyed Yang Dongfang's special treatment, and he just wanted him to take Xiao Zhongzhong out of Sichuan as soon as possible, so he didn't help Yang Dongfang do anything, of course, there are also reasons why Yang Dongfang's stall is too small, the structure is single, and he is not needed.

This month, he can be regarded as knowing Yang Dongfang's personality better, and from the general indications, Yang Dongfang does not plan to leave Sichuan, and wants to use this as a basis to develop his power and be a sword that pierces Sichuan.

For Yang Dongfang's courage, he also expressed his admiration, not losing to his younger brother Shi Dakai at all, as for his military talent, although he was not fighting the main army of the Qing Demon, most of them were bandits and militias, but the soldiers he used in this record were appropriate, which was not something that ordinary people could do.

Governing the army is the inheritance of the consistent style of the younger brother, and even more strict in some aspects, no matter how you look at it, he is a rare handsome talent.

But such a handsome talent made him very embarrassed.

Having such a person to assist Xiao Zhongzhong is simply like a tiger with wings, once he leaves Sichuan, he can compete with Lai Yuxin, Li Fuyou and others, so that he can level the left and right, so that Xiao Zhongzhong can inherit the throne smoothly and steadily.

However, but this Yang Shuai doesn't want to go out of Sichuan, how is this good, originally Tang Yi attacked, he was still very worried, and even thought that once Yang Dongfang died in the Eagle Village, he would take Xiao Zhongzhong to the east, and now Tang Yi is defeated, Yang Dongfang has begun to recruit troops again, and Heishan Tsui is bound to grow, do you want to go out of Sichuan?

"Is it better to stay here?"

"Yang Dongfang, he can really use this fish intestine sword to overturn the whole of Sichuan, do you want to take Xiao Zhongzhong to find Li Fuyou?"

Brother Jun spent a lot of effort, thousands of miles to fight, countless casualties, and even took his own life, in order to enter Sichuan, now he and others are already standing here, but they don't want to go out of Sichuan all the time.

"I don't know the true face of Lushan, is it only because I am in this mountain?"

"Or do you want to buy beads?"

One question after another lingers in my mind, the rain and wind blow down, and the prosperity is in spring and summer, and I am confused.

For a long time, Dai Rufeng's knock on the door and the message came from outside the door: "Lord Zeng, the brigade commander asks you to go over and discuss something." ”

Yang Dongfang took the initiative to find himself, this is the first thing, I don't know what is going on, with curiosity to clean up his mood, Zeng Shihe came to Yang Dongfang's room, there is only Yang Dongfang here, Dai Rufeng closed the door and took Li Xiaozhu to guard the outside, at this time Yang Kai handed over a letter.

"Whose letter?" Zeng Shihe asked, and Yang Dongfang said: "The boss will know when he sees it." ”

After reading the letter, Zeng Shihe's face was red and blue, and his chest rose and fell.

His eyes were staring at Yang Kai, and he slapped the letter on the table: "Luo Bingzhang has a good calculation, Zhao'an, hum, it was just the wrong belief in the words of this Qing dog that will harm Chitose, has anyone else read this letter?" ”

Yang Dongfang shook his head, Zeng Shihe nodded, "What about the person who sent the letter?" ”

"I was imprisoned in the depths of the grain cave."

After Yang Dongfang finished speaking, Zeng Shihe's face softened and calmed down, nodded, thought for a while and asked, "How is Yang Shuai going to deal with it." ”

"I don't know!"

"yes, I don't know!"

Zeng Shihe understood what Yang Dongfang meant: "That's fine, just as if no one has ever been sent, the people below will not have any ideas, and there will be no chaos, Yang Shuai must grasp it steadily, and it will not be a little messy, and now it is not as good as before." ”

"Remind Mr. Xie." Yang Dongfang took the letter and put it back in, and gave Zeng Shihe a cup of tea: "I don't know it's enough, I still have to do business with him, it's not a matter if there are too many prisoners." ”

Zeng Shihe took a sip of tea and put it in his mouth, and then swallowed it slowly, he couldn't help but sigh that people are really old, and he finally made a decision in his heart:

"Then burn him first. We are not short of money or food now, let's keep those prisoners, I'll help you look at it, Sichuan is a good place, you need talents, and Yang Shuai should pay more attention to the boundary field. ”

"Boundary!"

Also in the Iron Mountain Mountains, but in a town not far north of Heishanzui, a smelting place for thousands of troops, Yang Dongfang muttered and his eyes radiated light, Lianjiechang This is a place that is more important than the county seat, and even equivalent to the state capital.

Zeng Shihe's tone softened again, and finally stopped thinking about Sichuan, Yang Dongfang breathed a sigh of relief, there is an old man in the family, there is such an old Zaifu in charge, and many complicated things will be taken care of in the future.

With the increase in the number of new people's troops and the large number of prisoners under them, the management troubles will become more and more prominent, and it is better to hand over the civil affairs department to the management of traditional talents.

Sending Zeng Shihe away, Yang Dongfang sneered at Tang Yan's letter, Luo Bingzhang! Luo Bingzhang, you probably don't know that we were originally Shi Dakai's subordinates, and you don't know that Xiao Zhongzhong is right in front of you.

"You look so ugly, but you think it's beautiful."

Luo Bingzhang's plan is to kill two birds with one stone, this letter, on the one hand, wants to disturb the New People's Army and cause internal commotion, and on the other hand, he wants to confuse and appease the New People's Army.

But he could not have imagined that his opponent was his mortal enemy, and his plan was stillborn from the beginning.

"Judging from the letter, at least from the beginning, Luo Bingzhang will not make any big moves against Black Mountain Tsui in the short term, and then I can sweep the entire Iron Mountain with peace of mind."

"I just don't know who he will transfer to take care of this matter first, next time it will definitely be a heavy army."

Now I want money in my hand, I want food, I want a place to have a foothold, and I am the only one who lacks soldiers, so on the second day after returning to the village, I let people go down the mountain to spread the news and recruit troops, and a large number of recruits.

There are not many people in these years, that is, there are many people, there are many people who have no food, there are many people who have no land, there are more people who have no money, and there are many people who have nowhere to stay, as long as you have money and food in your hands, in fact, it is not difficult to recruit soldiers, even if you are a bandit.

As long as you give a bite to eat and dry it, this is the basic national condition of this era. (This is the national situation since ancient times-embarrassment-can't tell the truth.,The beast is coming.。。 )

In addition, in the past few years, the Great Shengguo fought back and forth with the Qing army, and the nearby state capitals were all smashed, and the order had not been completely restored, and there were more people who were homeless and had nothing to do, so it was not difficult to recruit troops.

This is also the reason why bandits in the Iron Mountain area have sprung up like bamboo shoots.

The New People's Army was not a bandit, which was quickly confirmed by the neighbors, because the New People's Army invaded the county seat and captured the clansmen of the three regimental training masters, and did not do evil in the city, killing people and setting fires, and at the same time did not harm the surrounding villages and villages.

Suddenly there is such a strong army, there is no reason not to eat mixed rice.

With the development of recruitment, there were more and more new recruits, and soon the number of people exceeded 500, so Yang Dongfang had to start adjusting the structure of the military department again, on the one hand, let the old team go down as instructors to train these people's basic subjects, and on the other hand, new departments were added.

The first part of the new addition is the Propaganda Department of Culture, which unifies ideology and program, and ideology is the most powerful weapon, and popularizes knowledge and instills their own ideas in recruits every day.

The second department is the intelligence department, which began to monitor inwards and set up intelligence stations to collect information from the outside, and intelligence is also indispensable for eyes.

The new department is temporarily led by Yang Dongfang himself, and some veterans are drawn from below, because the number of grassroots institutions is not large, the internal is still quite simple, and the current role is still quite limited, so the superficial title of these people is Yang Dongfang's personal soldiers, assisted by Dai Rufeng.

After a week of basic training, the recruits were added to the company headquarters after the original veteran team foundation, and the original veterans were promoted to rank and served as squad and platoon leaders.

There are a total of 5 regular platoons, and below each platoon are three large squads of 20 people, forming a musket battalion.

There are also two Class B companies, below the 2nd company are 4 fully formed platoons, the company commander is the monk Tie 13, these people do not use muskets in principle, but use cold weapons and grenades, and most of the internal personnel are mainly practitioners, and their physique is first-class and strong.

Below the 3rd Company are 3 fully formed platoons, the company commander is the fat man Li He, this company also switched to cold weapons and grenades, but they even hold all the crossbows and bows and arrows in their hands.

Yang Dongfang's musket plus the captured income is almost 380 pieces, just one person, which is why he only set up 6 regular platoons and asked the monk fat man to get a class B company.

For a certain period of time in the future, his troops may still have to use cold weapons for a long time, after all, it is extremely difficult to buy muskets from Sichuan, and it is difficult to predict the capture, so he has to make preparations in advance in this regard, so as to expand the Category B troops in the future.

Of course, if it is divided by the number of people, in fact, he can slap his swollen face and become fat, and promote him to the regimental level, which sounds more majestic.

It is important to know that the last independent command structure of the Taiping Army is located at this battalion level, and a brigade commander has the decision-making power to fight independently after the separation of the army.

However, our party regards the company as the lowest command center, so after taking a comprehensive look at the actual situation, Yang Dongfang is a battalion-level command system at the company level, and another reason for doing this is that he is afraid that the organization will be suddenly improved, which will bring about loopholes and negligence in management, which will seriously affect the combat effectiveness, after all, there are too many recruits, which has lowered the combat effectiveness.

Therefore, in order to unite and improve combat effectiveness, he convened the first grievance meeting after the reorganization and expansion of the organization.
