-------------------------------------------------------------

There was a small uproar among the surrounding crowd, especially among the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, who were talking to each other, and there was a word:

"Isn't this the Danshu Iron Coupon!"

In the midst of this surprise, Xie Xi also looked up at Pang Yu a few times-he didn't want to add the dead ghosts from the logging team. He didn't have a good impression of those people at all, and in Xie Xi's opinion, if it weren't for the fact that the lumberjacks were useless, even if they were a little stronger, the casualties of his own escort team would not be so great, and Pang Yu was also injured.

But Pang Yu finally convinced him. He said that if you were going to do such a ritual, it would be better to set a few examples among the locals, so as to win hearts and minds -- they had taken in about twenty or thirty thousand refugees during the winter, some of them had been taken away, but many more remained in the camps. Even if there are a lot of spies mixed in, the vast majority of people still want to live a good life after all, and they are grateful for the food and shelter they provide. On the basis of the already good feelings, a slight addition of fire is enough to raise the prestige of "friendliness" to "respect" or even "reverence", even if it only plays a role in this military operation, it is a matter of benefit, so why not do it?

One of the biggest advantages of Xie Xi's ability to climb to the position of leader among this group is that he is willing to listen to people's advice. Therefore, even if I was still not very happy in my heart, I still found a few typical examples from the more than 30 local dead ghosts - of course, they all died relatively heroically, and many people can testify that they did rush up to fight with the Houjin soldiers, and they were killed by the enemy, so it is not a shame to give a martyr treatment.

As for the other victims, some of them had wounds in their backs, and some of them died silently somewhere, and only the bodies were found afterwards but no one saw the killing process, so they had to give some pensions - of course, it could not be as high as the reward Pang Yu had promised, after all, most of the killed and wounded Tartar soldiers had nothing to do with those lumberjacks. Pang Yu wants to win people's hearts, but he doesn't want to be seen as a wronged person for no reason.

After that, several family members of the deceased who were covered with military flags on their coffins were also treated with military salutes -- Lao Xie was indeed very good in this regard, no matter what he thought in his heart, he was always meticulous when saluting people, and expressed his respect and regret for those local martyrs to the greatest extent in his speech and demeanor. And this is exactly what Pang Yu thinks he will never be able to do, so he can only write a big "service" for Xie Xi to be the leader of this small group.

Lao Jie's performance can even suppress Pang Yu, who knows him well, not to mention those local soldiers and civilians, who almost have to lie on the ground one by one - for the civilians of this era who have long been accustomed to being oppressed and humiliated by the Later Jin and Ming Dynasty troops, this kind of respectful attitude from the military and the head of a strong army is definitely a miracle that they have never seen and heard of before!

As a result, most of the knees of those people were weak when they saluted them, and kneeling and kowtowing was almost the only "normal reaction" they could make. If this is the case, the propaganda effect will be much worse - the dismissal of such a tall person, the original salute is almost towards the head of the person, if there is a bang bang kowtow at his feet, no matter how flawless his posture is, it will become a joke.

Fortunately, Pang Yu took precautions in advance, and arranged two honor guards beside each local bereaved family member standing in front of the coffin in advance.

But for those people around him, even Pang Yu couldn't do anything - the civilians of this era were really humble to the bone, the key is that even they felt this way - in the second half of the ceremony, almost all the surrounding refugees knelt on the ground, but the members of the Qiong Navy who had always stood tall and taller.

As for those members of the Dongjiang Army who came to watch the ceremony, to say that the Qiong Navy is so "humble" to the common people, will the other party despise them? - In fact, it is the opposite: after this ceremony, those officers and soldiers of the Dongjiang Army became more and more polite when they saw the Qiong Navy, and even Huang Long, the chief soldier of Dongjiang Town, now met an ordinary soldier of the Qiong Navy with a smile on his face, his words were gentle, and he was even more humble than before - no way, who let Lao Xie perform so devotedly, making people feel that every short-haired soldier is extremely valuable. If you offend any of them, maybe there will be a real short-haired man who will come out to find a place in person.

And those low-level soldiers of the Dongjiang Army inquired in many ways, asking how they could join the Qiong Navy. However, after asking, most of them are disappointed - in fact, the recruitment threshold of the Qiong Navy is not very high advertised to the outside world, and it can even be said that it is very relaxed: within the jurisdiction of their Qiong Navy, family members who have lived in the territory for more than a year can voluntarily join the army. To be more specific, residents in Hainan, Luzon, and Taiwan who have lived in the local area with their parents or their wives and children for more than one year are eligible to sign up for the army.

But this is only qualifications, if you really sign up for the army: physical fitness, family status, and usual speech and behavior will be carefully examined - I can't complain that they are so careful, the weapons and tactics of the Joan Navy are too many than this era, and there are too many people outside who want to sneak in with special purposes, learn technology, understand tactics, or simply just want to steal weapons and escape. Especially the special relationship between them and the Ming Empire, even Jinyiwei has public stations in Qiongtai and Lu, and it is impossible to completely block the infiltration from the opposite side.

The only thing they can do is to minimize the trouble in this regard as much as possible -- Pang Yu and others recruited homeless people everywhere and gained countless hearts for food and clothing, but they never recruited troops from among these people. Only when these people have established a family in Hainan, lived there for more than a year, and have not revealed any suspicious tendencies after daily inspections by grassroots organizations, will they be regarded as reliable soldiers.

After being recruited, it will go through at least half a year of military training, during which ideological transformation and education are also essential, the army is a melting pot This sentence is really very appropriate in the Qiong Navy, even if it was originally with different intentions, it can be reversed a lot at this stage, or at least it will show some horses.

But even with such precautions, there are always several escapes in the army every year, some with guns, some with empty hands, and the pursuit and punishment of these people are very severe, and even their families will be implicated, but it is still impossible to prevent the defection from happening -- some people come in with a special purpose, and even the family members are fake when they are investigated afterwards, and there is really no way to prevent them.

Ask Jinyiwei for sin? People spread their hands and said that it was not arranged by us, we really don't know, what can you do with him? And this is true - the Ming Dynasty government had very low control over the local areas, and some local military leaders or clans decided to send nails to the short-haired army at their own discretion, and the imperial court could not know about it at all, and it could not control it. Zhou Sheng and Liao Yong are all rare "pro-faction" among the Jinyi Guards, and they are still thinking about buying weapons from Qionghai Town through regular channels all day long, and it is impossible to use such small means to ruin their own future.

So today, there are really a lot of Qionghai rifles scattered outside, and the principle of paper shell bullets is no longer a secret. There are even imitation Qionghai rifles on the black market, and the craftsmanship is still very exquisite. Fortunately, the rifle can be imitated, but the bullet cannot be imitated - the key is the primer, don't look at it is just an inconspicuous small copper sheet and a very small amount of ****, and the chemical technical support required during this period is definitely not something that can be solved by the Ming Dynasty workshop. As long as the Qiong Navy firmly controls the **** raw materials, there is no need to worry about large-scale copycats copying their arms outside.

…… To get back to the point, through this funeral, the dismissal was considered to have successfully completed the integration and clean-up of the camp internally. The prestige of the Qiong Navy in the eyes of the local military and civilians has once again been greatly enhanced. Although I don't dare to say that there are absolutely no spies in the refugee camp now, at least I can guarantee that for some time to come, its internal information will not be easily leaked out - in the past, those spies only need to guard against authentic short-haired green skins, and after this ceremony, if they have any sneaky behavior, everyone they meet may report it at any time, and the probability of not showing their feet is too low.

So now, even if there is still Houjin Xiaozuo mixed in the camp, he can only lurk honestly and dare not act rashly. After solving the problem of internal ghosts, Xie Xi set his sights on the outside of the camp and the security of the entire Arthur Peninsula.

Xu Lei led people to seal the land access to the peninsula, and there were patrol ships going back and forth on the sea, and if there were ambushes on the peninsula after Jin, this period must be very difficult - Lao Xie was not in a hurry to spend a few days sorting out the inside, and he also deliberately hung the outside to weaken the opponent's combat power. If you are a good man, you will sleep in the wild for three or five days, eat dry food and sleep in the field and dare not raise a fire, then your physical and mental condition will definitely be greatly affected, and it will be much easier to clean up when the time comes.

Xie Xi originally planned to go out in person, but was later reminded by Pang Yu and others, saying that there is someone in our team who is more suitable for this job than you - Li Ashui, the deputy commander of the first battalion, the best sharpshooter in the third regiment. At the beginning, he made a big fuss in Manila City with Pang Yu and others in Beiwei. He was originally born as a Li hunter on Hainan Island, and it is his old business to trace and hunt down prey, although the forests in Liaodong are somewhat different from those on Hainan Island, but after all, he is much stronger than Xie Xie, a half-hung camping enthusiast.

Xie Xi thought about it and felt quite reasonable, and since Xiao Lang was injured and actually relieved of the position of commander of the first battalion, the first battalion has been led by Li Ashui, Xie Xi wanted to simply promote him to the commander of the first battalion several times, but he was worried that the committee would not be able to pass it - their internal unwritten rule: so far, all the positions at the level of battalion commander have been held by the "own people" of the traversal, and if Xie Xi wants to pierce this glass ceiling, there must be quite a good reason. It is obviously a good way to let him take people to drill into the old forest to capture the Houjin ambush soldiers, and to make enough military achievements.

After making up his mind, he no longer hesitated, and on the same day, he asked Li Ashui to set off with the first battalion and start a clean-up operation on the entire peninsula. On the other hand, the Xie Xi side continued to patiently raise armaments and materials to prepare for the next stage of large-scale warfare -- once the war broke out and it was a battle against a strong enemy like Houjin, no one knew what it would look like, and the more fully prepared the better. By the way, I also waited for the reinforcements sent by Hainan Island to see what kind of support the rear would give him.

After about 20 days, the supply convoy from Hainan Island docked at the Laohuzui Wharf, but the officer who led the team standing at the bow of the ship surprised everyone - it was actually the northern latitude! He was followed by Wei Aiwen and the listless Ye Mengyan with eager expressions on their faces, as well as a number of old faces that Xie Xi Pang Yu and others were familiar with - they were all security personnel of the main base of Baiyantan. The committee is really interesting, and the guard battalion directly under the base has been dispatched!

On the dock, Xie Pang Xiao, who came to pick up people, glanced at each other, and they all focused on the weapons in the hands of the soldiers in the front row - sure enough, it was no longer the familiar Qionghai rifle, but another type that everyone knew before, but in recent years, it has become a little unfamiliar -- the five or six semi-automatic! The two on the shoulders of Wei Aiwen and Ye Mengyan are even more similar in appearance, but they have a long curved magazine and a slightly shorter barrel.

"Good guys, new weapons are equipping the troops so quickly? Dr. Feng: They are so fast! ”

Xiao Lang muttered, Xie Xi's eyesight was better, and after a few more careful glances, he shook his head:

"Most of the people in the back are still carrying the Qionghai type, and there are more than a dozen new guns in front of them, and it is estimated that they are only here for testing."

"Hmph, that's fierce enough, I had two small pistols in my hand when I was attacked last time, if they were replaced with submachine guns, even if there was only one, then dozens of people would be counted as wool!"

Pang Yu looked at the new gun on Xiao Yezi's shoulder, and said fiercely.

When the fleet approached the dock, the troops went ashore in turn, and Beiwei, with their familiar evil smile, took the lead in front of the three regiments.

"I heard that you were embarrassed by the special tactics used by the Houjin soldiers?"

He first looked down at Pang Yu's big feet covered with plaster bandages, and then at Xiao Lang's pale face, and then pouted and shook his head:

"So, professional things still have to be left to professionals. It's not what you're best at after all, it's not that kind of thing like special warfare, so let me play with them. (To be continued.) )
