Yang Yi, Luo Huiliang, and Yang Xiongcai were released by Xu Qing ahead of schedule, and they also became officials, and only Cui Meng was left in prison at the same time, Cui Ling never forgot to intercede for her brother every time she had a tryst with Xu Qing's office, begging Xu Qing to release her brother, Yang Min also asked Xu Qing to release her brother-in-law every time she had a tryst with Xu Qing, Xu Qing couldn't stand the two beauties pleading many times, and released him in advance when Cui Meng was locked up for a month, and arranged a petty official for him in the horse gang.

Yang Siqi is only sixteen years old, at a young age, the burden on his shoulders is not light, in the first and second women's dart division battalion riding, archery chief instructor after half a month of work, Xu Qing is distressed, not caring about the relationship with the pretty widow Yang Min exposed, let Yang Min be the second women's dart division battalion riding, archery chief instructor, Yang Siqi changed to the first women's dart battalion riding, archery chief instructor. Yang Siqi has become smaller, but this is Xu Qing's consideration for her, she has no dissatisfaction, she is only in charge of a women's dart master camp, she feels that the burden on her shoulders is much lighter, and she does not have to get up early every day to teach in the dark.

On December 20, the 100th pistol was successfully imitated, Xu Qing formally formed a new army that could use cold and hot weapons to fight, called the Third Dart Division, recruiting 300 people in advance, half of the male and female soldiers, Xu Qing served as the regiment commander and the commander of the male barracks, Yang Ziyan served as the deputy regiment commander and the commander of the female barracks, Xu Qing was in charge of the entire Third Dart Division, and was in charge of the male soldiers, Yang Ziyan was in charge of the female soldiers, and the male and female soldiers were in separate classes and training. Cui Zhenhai, Yang Yi, Luo Huiliang, Yang Xiongcai, Yang Chao (Yang Ziyan's distant relative of the same clan), Nie Hu, Nie Qing (Nie Hu's son), Luo Zhi (Luo Huiliang's son), Yu Junsheng (the former seventh leader of the Heifengling Group, the deputy leader of the Ma Gang, when Xu Qing inherited the position of Yang Ziyan's big boss, he stood on Yang Yi's side, and after Xu Qing took power, he was placed in the Ma Bang Yumen Pass as the helm of the incense, and after Xu Qing accepted Yang Yi as a confidant, he was re-employed and transferred back to Liangzhou as the deputy leader of the Ma Gang, Zhao Tuozhi, Zhao Gain, Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Zhao, Zhao Mengchen, Yang Min, Cui Ling, Yang Siqi, Li Xiu'er, Fei'er, Lian'er, Ling'er, Mei'er, Ye'er, and Hong'er are all squad leaders, ranging from ten to fifteen people in each class, all selected from Xu Qing and Yang Ziyan's cronies, most of them are the descendants of Yang Ziyan's grandfather's subordinates, loyal to the Yang family for more than 50 years, and their loyalty is absolutely reliable.

Cui Meng was excluded, Xu Qing stabbed himself at him, and if he hadn't had body armor to protect his body, he would have died under his random arrows, and he couldn't let go, although he became a relative, the relationship was still not good. Wang Shouxin presided over the work in Fanyang and Liaodong Province for 20 years, and was suspected of being Yang Cheng's confidant and supported Yang Cheng to regain Yang Ziyan's power.

On the day of the founding of the New Army, Xu Qing founded the "Military Academy", and in order to hide people's eyes, the external name was "Dart Master Skills Training School" and the internal name was "Military Academy".

Xu Qing served as the principal and new military command instructor, Yang Ziyan and Yang Yi served as the old military command instructors, Yang Ziyan, Cui Zhenhai, Nie Hu, Zhao Gain, Zhao Tuozhi, Zhao Mengchen, Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao served as martial arts instructors, Xu Qing served as pistol shooting instructors, Yang Yi and Yang Min served as riding and archery instructors, Xu Qing served as new-style spy and counter-espionage instructors, and Yang Ziyan, Yang Yi, Luo Huiliang, Cui Zhenhai, and Nie Hu served as old-style spy and counter-espionage instructors.

Yang Ziyan did not ask to be the vice principal, and Xu Qing did not let her be the vice principal, this is because Xu Qing attaches great importance to the military academy, so that Wei is to cultivate his own henchmen and establish the cradle of his own team, there are many women of his own, and she can't spoil Yang Ziyan alone, otherwise she may become the second Wu Zetian, unable to tolerate the rest of her women, and may even fight for power with herself. Yang Ziyan couldn't see the importance of the military academy, and she didn't have the idea of fighting for power with Xu Qing, Xu Qing gave her a lot of deputy positions in the past, but this time she didn't give it, Yang Ziyan was just a little surprised, I didn't know if Xu Qing did it intentionally, and thought that Xu Qing had too many things to worry about every day, and she was negligent.

At the same time, as a student, Xu Qing humbly studied military command and combat knowledge of cold weapons and related knowledge of logistics supply, espionage, and formation.

The 3rd Dart Division has set aside a separate piece of land, which is newly bought, and its number is far less than that of either of the 1st and 2nd Dart Divisions, but it occupies more than 10 times the land occupied by the 1st and 2nd Dart Divisions combined.

The opening ceremony of the "Military Academy" was presided over by President Xu Qing, and all members of the New Army attended, and the squad leaders of each class performed martial arts in turn in the martial arts arena to celebrate. Zhao Mengchen and Cui Ling wore gorgeous costumes, representing the female soldiers to perform martial arts fights, they fought from the ground to the sky, and from the sky to the ground, the fight was very exciting, and the beautiful martial arts looked beautiful, winning the applause and loud cheers of more than 300 people in the audience.

A hundred pistols were not enough, and for the time being, the three of them shared a pistol to practice shooting, and after the practice, they handed it over to the warehouse, and the warehouse of the pistols and bullets was set up in the barracks of Yang Ziyan's women's personal guards, together with the vault, and was closely protected. Except for Xu Qing and Xu Qing's women Yang Ziyan, Li Xiu'er, Fei'er, Lian'er, Yang Min, Cui Ling, and Yang Siqi, who can wear pistols, the rest are forbidden to carry pistols. During training, the number of guns taken, handed over, the number of bullets, and the number of cartridge casings that were knocked out must be registered. The management of the new army is very strict, and a strict visitor admission and registration system is implemented, and all visitors must obtain the consent of Xu Qing or Yang Ziyan to enter the 3rd Dart Division, and ensure that they must always be accompanied by the person who is visiting; Implement a strict leave system, only one day off at the end of the month, sick leave requires a doctor's written certificate, personal leave must have a letter from home or family or relatives and friends to visit, and all leave slips must be approved by Xu Qing or Yang Ziyan; A strict secrecy system is enforced, and members of the Forces nouvelles are not allowed to disclose the equipment, methods, and contents of the training to anyone, including their families, nor are they allowed to reveal the names of the principals, instructors, and commanders.

The shooting range was fenced off with brick walls, and every day there were gunshots, and the people of the 1st and 2nd Dart Divisions and the 1st and 2nd Women's Dart Divisions next to the 3rd Dart Division were curious and couldn't find out by any means. This shows how well the New Army has done its secrecy work, and it does not even disclose its own people, let alone outsiders want to know.

Soon the New Year came, Xu Qing gave the dart bureau a holiday of fifteen days, the first and second dart divisions and the first and second women's dart division battalions for seven days, and the third dart division only had a three-day holiday.

In the past year, Shuguang Group has grown from 5,000 people to nearly 30,000 people when it was founded, of which the Weiwu Dart Bureau has developed to more than 8,000 people, and the Mabang has developed to more than 10,000 people. Shuguang Group's inns, money villages, and shops are also blooming everywhere in the northwest, but they have not yet entered Chang'an, Xijing, and Luoyang, the eastern capital. Xu Qing was worried that the development of the Shuguang Group was too fast and would attract the attention of the imperial court, so he sent intelligence personnel to investigate the details of the Shuguang Group, and before the new army formed a combat force and had full ability to defend itself, Xu Qing still wanted to keep a low profile. Most of the destinations of the customers of the dart bureau and the horse gang pointed to Chang'an and Luoyang, and Xu Qing had to establish a mighty dart bureau branch and a horse gang rudder in Chang'an and Luoyang, and he couldn't keep a low profile. Fortunately, the mighty dart bureau and the horse gang robbed each other for business, competed for customers, and played competitors, distracting the attention of the imperial court.

In order not to attract the attention of the imperial court, the "Shuguang Group" has always been the internal name of the high-level, not only did not call this name externally, but also did not call it internally, this name was only used in high-level internal meetings, and circulated among the families of a small number of high-level leaders. The "Shuguang Group" is mentioned many times in this book for convenience only, referring to the mighty dart bureau, horse gang, Ping An Inn, Xinglong Qianzhuang and store departments jointly managed by Xu Qing and Yang Ziyan. Shuguang Group has no headquarters, no office, and no headquarters management personnel, Xu Qing only has one office, and there are many titles internally, and only one external title, which is the head of the mighty dart bureau. Xu Qing is the boss behind the Ping An Inn, Xinglong Money Village and the store department, not only to keep it secret externally, but also to keep it secret, only the high-level knows, on the surface, the shopkeeper of Ping An Inn is Wang Shouxin, and the shopkeeper of Xinglong Money Village is a bookkeeper under Yang Ziyan, and the store department is composed of more than 300 shops distributed in various places, including traditional stores, and small supermarkets of their own choice only in later generations, the names of these stores are different, and no one knows that they have a common owner.

Xu Qing has made a lot of money in the past year, most of which is used to recruit people, expand the scale and train the army, part of the money is used to improve the treatment of employees, bonuses are given to employees at the end of the year, and part of the money is kept for emergencies. In the past, employees were given wedding bride price and banquet money, and the good benefits of sharing the house when they got married are still maintained. This is also the reason for the rapid expansion of Shuguang Group.

On the nineteenth day of the first lunar month, each of the 300 new troops was issued with a pistol, and only then did a battalion of the new army be officially formed. Xu Qing and Yang Ziyan were not satisfied with this, and began to select three battalions of new troops, recruiting one and a half battalions of male soldiers of the new army and one and a half battalions of female soldiers of the new army, and then redivided the first batch of new troops into various companies, playing the role of veterans leading new soldiers, forming the first, second, third, and fourth battalions, the first and second battalions for male battalions, and the third and fourth battalions for female battalions. The second batch of new army soldiers were mainly from Yang Ziyan's women's personal guards, the first and second women's dart division battalions, and the first and second dart divisions, which were jointly selected by Xu Qing and Yang Ziyan, and the selection criteria were both loyalty and martial arts. Xu Qing concurrently served as the commander of the first battalion, Yang Yi served as the commander of the second battalion, Yang Ziyan concurrently served as the commander of the third battalion, and Cui Ling served as the commander of the fourth battalion. Cui Zhenhai served as the chief of staff of the Third Dart Division, Zhao Gain and Zhao Tuozhi served as the chief instructor and deputy chief instructor of the men's barracks of the Third Dart Division respectively, and Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao served as the chief instructor and deputy chief instructor of the women's barracks of the Third Dart Division respectively. Yang Yi served as the chief instructor of riding and archery of the third dart division regiment and the instructor of the first battalion, Luo Huiliang served as the riding and archery instructor of the second battalion, and Yang Min and Yang Siqi served as the riding and archery instructors of the third and fourth battalions respectively. Yang Siqi has been idle for a while, and he has to be busy again, but fortunately, he has accumulated experience as an instructor and is very handy.

The commanders of the first, second, and third companies of the first battalion were Luo Huiliang, Yang Xiongcai, and Nie Qing, and the commanders of the first, second, and third companies of the second battalion were Nie Hu, Zhao Tuozhi, and Yang Chao respectively; The commanders of the first, second, and third companies of the third battalion were Yang Min, Yang Siqi, and Zhao Mengchen, and the commanders of the first, second, and third companies of the fourth battalion were Li Xiu'er, Fei'er, and Lian'er respectively.

Two men's and two women's divisions were recruited again.
