As time passed, the turmoil over land reform and recruitment slowly subsided, and Liu Fan also had time to solve other problems. Because Sun Yuanhua didn't do anything and handed over the prefect's seal to Liu Fan, the civil affairs in Jiaozhou suddenly appeared blank and broke away from Liu Fan's control, and in the face of such a situation, Liu Fan could only find a way to solve this thorny problem.

After convening a high-level meeting, Liu Fan finally decided based on the experience of later generations, first of all, to move the personnel under the prefect yamen of Jiaozhou to Shihe, control it nearby, and install people to monitor it, and at the same time weaken its rights, and transfer the important right of taxation to the garrison government, and the yamen of the Jiaozhou prefect is only responsible for handling civil affairs disputes, criminal and other part of the powers. Secondly, political school students and some soldiers were sent to the towns and villages to serve as civil affairs officials and militia captains.

Because since ancient times, all dynasties have lacked control over towns and villages, resulting in an unprecedentedly large clan power, especially now that the world is gradually chaotic, people's hearts are not ancient, and all kinds of small forces with clans as the core are all over the land of China. In addition, these political school students are fledgling and have no experience, and Liu Fan cannot rashly remove the township chief and replace his own person, so he has no choice but to adopt this compromise method and set up such a "nondescript" civil affairs official.

The main duties of the civil affairs officer are to publicize and convey the policies of the garrison government, and at the same time serve as the director of a "kindergarten", who is responsible for educating the people and opening up the wisdom of the people, and his specific work is to gather some school-age children to teach them to read and reason, take in some orphans and lonely elderly people, deal with some civil affairs disputes, and supervise the fairness and justice of the village chief. Slowly accumulate prestige and gradually participate in political affairs. According to Liu Fan's prediction, in the next three to five years, the sphere of influence of the Broken Army will not leave Shandong, and these political school students have time to slowly accumulate experience and prestige and grow into qualified political workers.

The militia is similar to the combination of the police and the reserve in later generations, and it is also a force guarantee for civil officials. In addition to being responsible for arresting bandits and maintaining the township, he is also responsible for training farmers and cultivating reserve soldiers for the army when the farm is not working. The deeper purpose is to let the people have some self-protection power, and they can strive for a glimmer of life in the face of the coming troubled times.

With the support of the civil affairs officials and the militia team, as well as Liu Fan's support, as long as these grassroots personnel remain honest and fair, Liu Fan believes that in the near future, the Broken Prisoner Army will completely control the vast rural areas of Jiaozhou, weaken the entangled clan forces in the countryside to the greatest extent, and turn Jiaozhou into the most stable base of the Broken Prisoner Army.

After dealing with these imminent matters, as Liu Fan's core force, the Broken Army also needs to be appeased. Because of the relationship of time, Liu Fan has not taken care of the reward of the Broken Army, and after discussing with many officers, Liu Fan decided to build a martyr's cemetery in the south of Shihe City, and engraved all the names of the soldiers who died in the Broken Army on the stone tablet for future generations to worship. Taking advantage of the fact that the Broken Army has recruited nearly 10,000 new recruits, Liu Fan decided to hold an all-army meeting on the day the cemetery was completed. As soon as this matter was announced, it immediately caused a huge repercussion in the Broken Army, compared to the other armies of the Ming Dynasty, the pension of the Broken Army was already very high and perfect, and now Liu Fan is building a cemetery for them, and all the things before and after him have been taken care of. No matter what their position is, the whole army is full of reverence and gratitude for Liu Fan at this moment. With the help of the soldiers of the Broken Army, the main body of the martyrs' cemetery, which covers an area of dozens of acres, has been completed in just ten days.

On March 15 of the sixth year of Chongzhen, more than 20,000 people, including military cadets, gathered in the martyrs' cemetery outside the south city of Shihe. The originally desolate and nameless place suddenly became the most lively place in Jiaozhou.

Standing on the high platform under the stele of the cemetery, Liu Fan looked down at the crowd below, his heart was full of excitement and pride, tidied up his clothes, Liu Fan walked to the front of the stage, and said with emotion, "The harsh winter fades in the spring breeze, and the years are gone unconsciously, two years ago today, our broken army has just been built, I and everyone hurriedly embarked on the journey with the ideal of serving the country and the people, after two years of bloody fighting, today our broken army has become a huge force, and has become the patron saint of the people of Jiaozhou." In this process, some people are alive, and some people are unfortunately buried in other places. Now the situation is turbulent, the country is in internal and external difficulties, in the north after the Jin Tartars slaughtered the people of Liaodong without humanity, millions of people were ravaged by the iron hooves of the Tartars, and died in pain and despair. In the Central Plains, the rogue ravaged the people, and millions of people struggled with hunger and death. As a soldier, I should take on the heavy responsibility of defending the country and fighting against foreign humiliation. In the near future, more people will lose their lives for the sake of the country and the people! The beacon fire and wolf smoke are the time when my army is full of man's true colors. The big waves sweep the sand, and the name of my heroic and good fighting army will surely spread all over the world and become the mainstay of my Ming Dynasty. Our Bloodshed! Our sacrifice! Our contributions to the people will be remembered by future generations. Now I declare that the burial ceremony begins now! ”

Liu Fan's passionate speech detonated the blood in the hearts of the soldiers of the Broken Army, even the newly recruited soldiers were full of an unprecedented sense of belonging to Liu Fan at this moment, and no one could refuse the temptation of the eternal age. The solemn ceremony continued, hundreds of coffins were carried by the soldiers and slowly entered the cemetery, Liu Fan walked in the front and personally carried the coffins to bury the dead soldiers, the tragic and solemn atmosphere reached its peak, and the crowd burst into tears, unable to distinguish whether it was grief or joy.

After the burial ceremony, the next step was the award and reward ceremony for meritorious soldiers. According to the military rank system and medal system of later generations, Liu Fan re-announced the new military system of the Broken Army. In addition to the basic military system such as corps commander and sergeant, ordinary soldiers have also added private, first-class, second-class, and third-class soldiers, and four ranks, and the new army will be automatically promoted to private after completing basic training. In addition, Liu Fan also ordered people to build, gold, silver and bronze, three kinds of medals, and awarded meritorious soldiers according to the size of their merits.

It is worth mentioning that because of the courage of this battle and the killing of many enemies, most of the soldiers in the death battalion got rid of the identity of coolies and were promoted to the war battalion as they wished. In order to commend the merits of Shang Ming and others, Liu Fan personally awarded them with awards. And it was independently organized into a battalion, and the name "Yong" word battalion was given. The second is the reward, according to the regulations of the Broken Army, the captured soldiers will have forty percent, and all the soldiers of the Broken Army who participated in the battle will be divided into three to five taels of silver according to the size of their merits.
