The battlefield was not cleaned up until the next day, and the corpses were gathered and buried on a small hill, and after cleaning the battlefield, Xia Jun led the team back to Xixiang.

At the back of the line, there were more than 500 captured Qing soldiers. These Qing troops are naturally unwilling to let go, this is free labor, take them to repair the road for two years, and then release them after labor reform!

In the afternoon, Xia Jun returned to Longcun, and immediately called his secretary general, You Zhengbin, and asked him to write a letter to the magistrate, in which Xia Jun threatened the magistrate and threatened to invade Xixiang again, and would enter the county seat to take his head.

Xia Jun didn't take these officials seriously at all, these magistrates all wanted to make money, where would they really give the Qing court a place to pacify.

Moreover, if there is such a mess in this place, they are responsible, which will affect their careers, and these officials generally do not report if they can not report it.

They will only report it when they can't hide it.

Anyway, after the term of office, after saving enough money to buy a fat shortage, he patted his ass and left, what kind of mess will happen, and that will be the next term.

At this time, if Xia Jun can be more peaceful, the prefect and the prefect will naturally be peaceful.

In addition to threatening the county, the letter also meant that the well water of both sides would not interfere with the river water. After writing the letter, Xia Jun handed it to Zhang Sigou and asked him to send it to the magistrate.

At the same time, Xia Jun asked people to send the good news to the squires of various villages, so that they could rest assured.

……

The news of the defeat of the security regiment soon spread, and the squires of each village were relieved that the security regiment had the ability to make Xixiang autonomous.

However, some squires were worried that Xia Jun would continue to challenge the limits of the government, so they hurried to Longcun and persuaded Xia Jun for a while, just let him start self-government in Xixiang in peace, and don't trouble the government again.

Obviously, these squires can also see clearly, there is no change in Xixiang autonomy at this time, the only thing to watch out for is that Xia Jun is messing around, if Xia Jun makes too much trouble, the government can't hide it, and the Qing court may send troops to come to suppress it.

Xia Jun nodded in agreement, but in his heart he thought about the encroachment plan, in fact, no matter how big the matter is, as long as it is maintained on autonomy, it is absolutely impossible for the Qing court to transfer troops from the north to suppress it, at most it is the soldiers and horses in the province.

In the local area, it is generally advanced to suppress, and if there is no drama in the suppression, it will be appeased.

Xia Jun thought to himself that this should not change the course of history, so he planned to encroach on a few more townships in the near future, and also establish autonomy like Xixiang.

There are more people under the rule, and the points of the people's hearts will come faster.

It is not known how much the population of Saigo is, and it will have to wait until it is included in the territory system for the people's heart system to show the population of this area.

However, judging from the population reported by each village, the population of Xixiang should exceed 15,000 people, and if each person contributes 5 points per month, it will only be 75,000, which means that it will take nearly a year to build a cultivation base for Class 1 high-yield rice, but in addition to high-yield rice, there are also high-yield forage corn, high-yield cotton, and high-yield wheat...... Each of these things requires 1 million points to build a cultivation base.

If you want to get more points, you can only suppress bandits and An Min, the first batch of soldiers has been almost trained, and now you can train the second batch of soldiers.

Xia Jun once again asked people to post recruitment notices, and sent notices to the squires of each village, asking them to organize the young people in the village to come to enlist.

Xia Jun's plan was to train a group of second-line combat troops, and then send them outside to suppress bandits. The plan was set, but Xia Jun still lacked a supervisory group to maintain military discipline, and there was also a lack of radio and telegraph operators.

However, since the autonomy of Xixiang, the squires of each village began to recruit talents for the security regiment, many of those squires have clans, and many clans in Xixiang have a good educational atmosphere, and some of their children have also been promoted or jinshi, so these squires have found some literati.

At the same time, Xia Jun also ordered Zhang Sigou to recruit people outside, all cultural people.

……

A new round of recruitment of the security regiment has begun, but this time the recruitment of soldiers has reduced the treatment of the security regiment a lot, and the monthly salary is only two silver dollars.

At this time, the security group had already gained a firm foothold in Xixiang and formed a certain force, and many people coveted the good treatment in the group and wanted to join the security group.

There are many benefits to joining the security corps, not only is there a military salary of six silver dollars a month, but also meat to eat, white rice, steamed buns, and powerful military uniforms and sophisticated steel guns.

As a result, the security corps has formed a 'seller's market', and the initiative is in the hands of the security corps.

In order to save money, Xia Jun reduced his salary to two silver dollars per month, but as long as he performed well in training or made meritorious contributions in battle, the security regiment would give him a higher salary.

Xia Jun set a soldier hierarchy system, and he divided soldiers into first-class soldiers, second-class soldiers, and third-class soldiers, with third-class soldiers only being paid two silver dollars per month, second-class soldiers being paid four silver dollars per month, and first-class soldiers being paid six silver dollars per month.

After determining the rank of the soldier, Xia Jun promoted the soldiers of the whole regiment to the first class, but Xia Jun said first, if anyone violates the military law, the level of the first class soldier will be lowered at any time.

In addition to the five military laws of the Jianzhou Security Corps, there are more than a dozen military laws. For example, you can't disturb the people, you have to pay back things you borrow, you have to be polite when you talk to the people, and you can't take a stitch from the people......

Anyway, the three disciplines and eight points of attention of a certain party were basically plagiarized by Xia Jun, and at this time, if he wanted to buy people's hearts, he naturally wanted to copy a certain party.

Although the security corps has lowered the salary, the young people who came to apply for the recruitment are still undiminished.

This time, Xia Jun recruited a total of 400 people, and at the same time exchanged 400 Springfield rifles from the system, the Springfield rifle is a U.S. weapon, using 7.62×63mm rifle cartridges, the same as the M1 Garand, so using the Springfield rifle can not make the supply system complicated.

The Springfield rifle is a World War I equipment, and the Mauser rifle belongs to the same level of equipment of the same era, the characteristics of the Springfield rifle are extremely lethal, and the rate of fire is no different from the Mauser rifle.

The exchange price is very cheap, only 10 points per hand, and the points required for one M1 Garand can be exchanged for three Springfield rifles.

At this time, Xia Jun has already gained a firm foothold, and it is enough to equip the main force in his hand with M1 Garand and motorization. Those troops who were dispatched to suppress bandits did not need to use extravagant weapons like the M1 Garand, it was a waste to deal with the bandits and the Qing army's M1 Garand.

Xia Jun recruited this time and began to reduce expenses in terms of funds and points.

After the recruitment of 400 people is in place, Xia Jun's monthly expenses should be about 3,500 silver dollars, and he still has 60,000 silver dollars in hand.

This is military expenditure, as well as administrative expenditure, those cultural people are all hired with high salaries, and it is estimated that they will have to budget thousands of silver dollars a month. With the funds in hand, there is no problem to support it for a year, but after this recruitment, it is impossible to expand the army on a large scale.

If you want to have a stable financial income, you have to set up industry, but industry has to have an agricultural foundation, and you can't have enough to eat. Therefore, Xia Jun still solves agriculture first, and at the same time, agriculture can also bring good financial income.
