In January 1860, just when Li Yongji had just destroyed the Wang family, and then coerced and lured the magistrate of Qingpu County, and initially consolidated the position of the Jingwu Army in Qingpu County, the shape of the Jiangnan camp of the Qing army also became very good.

At the end of January, the Qing army of Jiangnan Daying, which was besieging Tianjing, advanced by land and water, successively captured more than 20 Taiping military bases along the river in Pukou, and occupied Jiangpu and Jiuhuanzhou on February 1 to further besiege Tianjing.

At this time, the morale of the Qing court was greatly boosted, and they all thought that it would not be long before they could break through Tianjing, strangle Hong Rebellion, and then end the turmoil of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom for many years, and the day of the Qing Dynasty's revival was just around the corner.

However, after hearing the news, Li Yongji stepped up the training intensity of the elite army, not only canceling a qiē vacation, reducing basic training, and strengthening tactical training, but also started a new round of recruitment plans ahead of schedule.

In the new recruitment plan, compared with the original recruitment restrictions, the main reason for this restriction is the height and age requirements, that is, as long as the age is over 16 years old and under 25 years old, and the height is over 155 cm, but it is still very strict in terms of eyesight, health and knowledge.

Qingpu County has always been a big economic county and a big education county, the literacy rate of the people is very high, and it is also among the best in the entire Qing Dynasty, so it is not a problem in terms of eyesight, health and literacy, as for the height, 155 cm is a lot of qualified in Japan at this time, let alone in Qingpu County, so the relaxation of this height and age is equivalent to opening a door for most young people in Qingpu County.

And the Jingwu Army also played out the brand in the process of exterminating the Wang family before, so it attracted a lot of people, so this time I knew that the Jingwu Army was recruiting again, and it was not far away, and the young people who thought they were qualified enough in the nearby seven miles and eight towns enthusiastically joined the army.

The reason why these young people are so enthusiastic to join the army, to put it bluntly, in addition to the treatment, the biggest purpose is to find a backer for the family, so that the family will not be bullied in the future. Because since the previous incident of the Jingwu Army exterminating the Wang family, as long as someone in the family is a soldier in the Jingwu Army, then even if this family has a big backer, the people nearby, whether they are landlords and bullies or government officials, dare not look for trouble anymore.

The concept of the countryman is very simple, as long as the family can not be bullied and can have a backer to rely on, then it is worth taking refuge and working hard!

In this way, in a very short period of time, in less than seven days, Li Yongji again recruited more than 6,000 people from the vicinity, all of whom were young men who were in good health, had good eyesight, were coarsely literate, were between 16 and 25 years old, and were over 1.55 meters tall.

It can be said that after this recruitment, the Jingwu Army is equivalent to extracting most of the male backbones in Qingpu County, especially in the villages near Zhujiajiao, plus the previous soldiers are mainly people from the vicinity, from the perspective of the main body of the soldiers, it is not wrong to say that the Jingwu Army is a local soldier in Qingpu County.

In addition, almost all of these soldiers have their own families in the local area, and the reputation of the Jingwu Army was not obvious before, and the families of the soldiers did not feel anything, but after the extermination of the Wang family, the families behind the soldiers of the Jingwu Army also identified with the Jingwu Army, which is equivalent to making the Jingwu Army quickly have a deep mass base.

What is the use of this mass base? Now it seems that it may have a general effect on Li Yongji, but this is a popular heart, an interest group with the Jingwu Army as the core, and it is an interest group deeply rooted in the people, with this popular foundation, Li Yongji and the Jingwu Army are the veritable bosses in Qingpu County, and there is no force that can be suppressed, not even the government.

In other words, the group with the Jingwu Army as the core is already a group that is not subject to the laws of the township and the Qing Dynasty, and the only thing that can restrain this group is the military law of the Jingwu Army and the will of Li Yongji.

After understanding this, Li Yongji quickly integrated the original discipline picket team and re-established a military justice department, and the members of the original discipline picket team automatically became military police and were placed under the management of the military justice department, and the first director was temporarily appointed by Zhou Da.

At the same time, in view of Sun Wang's outstanding performance in previous intelligence work, a special intelligence department was set up, and Sun Wang was temporarily the director, and this intelligence department belonged to Li Yongji's direct department.

At the same time as the establishment of the intelligence department, Li Yongji also set up a security department, headed by Li Jinbao, whose members were mainly the Jiading Nursing Home in the Li family's mansion in Qingpu County, and they were also the first group of people recruited by Li Yongji. Their temporary duty is to protect Li Yongji's family in Qingpu County, of course, these people are all redressed, and their weapons and equipment are the same as those of the Jingwu Army. In addition, they can expand the number of troops on their own according to the situation, but after the expansion, they must talk to Li Yongji, and the number of people cannot exceed 1,000 at most. In addition, the salaries of the soldiers in the security department are no longer from the finances of the Jingwu Army, but his father Li Zhengxiang is in charge, which is equivalent to handing over this department to his father, so that he has a personal guard.

The Judge Advocate General's Office functions similarly to military tribunals and deals specifically with violations of law and discipline within the military. However, this military justice department can not only deal with the soldiers of the Jingwu Army, but also accept complaints from the people, but this complaint must be related to the officers and soldiers of the Jingwu Army.

That is to say, if the families of the officers and soldiers of the Jingwu Army are rampant in the township and are sued by the local people to the Military Justice Department, then the Military Justice Department will jointly carry out a joint investigation with the Intelligence Department, and if the verification is true, then the Jingwu Army will not deal with the family members of the soldiers who committed the crime, but will publicly expel the soldier from the Jingwu Army, so that once there is no Jingwu Army as a shelter, the Jingwu Army soldiers and their families will return to the original rule circle, and whether they live or die is not a matter of the Jingwu Army.

That's right, this is implication in disguise, otherwise, there is really no way to put an end to some vicious incidents, Li Yongji doesn't want his Jingwu Army to become another bully, or rather, the Jingwu Army can become a local tyrant, but it must not be a bully!

"If you do this, isn't it just the kind of state-owned enterprises, and sooner or later there will be problems, and this involves soldiers, and the problem will be even greater." It was Zhang Xinda who said this, his image at this time was a suit and leather shoes, his hair was neatly combed, his face was clean, and there was a big desk in front of him.

"I know, but if something goes wrong, it will be later, for the time being, this can maximize the morale of the soldiers, and tie their families to my chariot to support me...... Anyway, if I don't do this, do you have a better way to build it? ”

"Well, not for the time being." Zhang Xinda shrugged his shoulders, "I mean, you have to engage in the kind of recruitment restrictions you requested, and I don't have a problem." ”

"Oh, and what's your opinion?"

"I can't talk about it, I just think you're too demanding on soldiers." Zhang Xinda shook his head, "In your era, a qualified soldier, as long as he is physically literate and can act according to orders, why do you have to be familiar with three hundred thousand?" Still under twenty-five? ”

"Isn't that right?" Li Yongji said, "I can only take the route of elite soldiers now, and elite soldiers naturally have soldiers with high standards first, and then talk about training, is this wrong?" ”

"That's right, but you'll have to see what happens." Zhang Xinda said, "According to what you said, of course, you have also read the information, and you yourself know that the Taiping Army will soon launch an eastern offensive, and what you need at this time is the number of soldiers, not the trouble of quality." In other words, what you need is to recruit a large number of ordinary soldiers, pile up the number, in order to scare people, scare the Qing army and the Taiping army, of course, the real war has to rely on your elite soldiers, but with more ordinary soldiers waving their flags and shouting behind, it can also reduce the psychological burden of elite soldiers, improve their courage and morale, besides, with a huge soldier base, you will grab the territory in the future before someone will see it, right? ”

"Well, you mean, high and low, engage in A, B and C?"

"That's right." Zhang Xinda said, "With the advanced weapons provided by my side, and the elite infantry training on your side has begun to take shape, then it should be divided into field troops and ordinary troops, the field troops are the elite, the main force of the operation, and the ordinary troops are the auxiliary of the field troops. Only in this way can you really grab food, money, and mother...... No, grab the land and become a big warlord in the future. ”

"I know what you mean." Li Yongji smiled and shook his head, "I also have the idea of dividing the troops into ordinary and elite, but for me at present, it is too much effort to recruit ordinary soldiers, and my large battalion cannot be full, so it is better to continue to recruit fewer elite soldiers and continue to strengthen the construction of elite soldiers." As for the ordinary soldiers, hehe, I remember that the Jiangnan camp will be defeated soon, and when the Jiangnan camp is defeated, aren't those chaotic soldiers who escaped the best source of ordinary soldiers? ”

"Are you going to recruit the rout of the Jiangnan battalion?" Zhang Xinda blinked, "Are you sure?" ”

"Of course." Li Yongji nodded, "I know your concerns, but I also have my own thoughts. At the very least, those defeated soldiers have all seen blood on the battlefield, and this kind of experience is difficult for ordinary people to have, and it is the most valuable. As for those bad habits, in fact, they can be reformed through guò training and education, and our party did not defeat the Kuomintang army back then, and it went into battle after a little transformation, and the effect was quite good. ”

"Can that be the same, our party was ...... at that time Forget it, let's not talk about it, if you really want to try, you can't do it, as long as you don't get rid of it. ”

"Don't worry, you can't get rid of it, those defeated soldiers are also people, as long as they understand the goodness of my elite army family, coupled with advanced weapons and continuous victories, they will integrate into the elite army and be proud of becoming an elite army."

"Uh-huh, good idea."

"In addition, the problem of the local characteristics of the elite troops is not difficult to solve, and it can be completely made the same as the Japanese divisions. For example, my current unit will be made into a Qingpu division in the future, and the scale will not be expanded, and I can recruit locals in other places to form a new division in the future, so that a number of main divisions with local characteristics can be formed, and the effect is also good. Li Yongji smiled.

"The Japanese division, well, in your time, it can be regarded as advanced." Zhang Xinda nodded this time, "The soldiers of a division are almost all native to their hometowns, which has a natural cohesion, if the training is strengthened, and then combined with advanced weapons, with the education level of the Qing Dynasty, it is indeed a good way to train elite soldiers." ”

"yes, you think it's good, that's fine." Li Yongji smiled, "By the way, I gave you so many things last time, you made a fortune." ”

"Hehe, I'm rich, aren't you just getting richer, I'm just a small shareholder." Zhang Xinda smiled, "Actually, it is certain that I will be rich, and what I am most happy about is that the tonnage of transmission has risen sharply!" On my side last night, a line of text just appeared, saying that I can now send you 100 tons of goods a day, up to 30 days in a row, and then send you 3,000 tons of goods at one time! 3000 tons, not to mention the number, even the previous accumulation loss is gone, and under this large tonnage, the range of goods that can be transmitted is even larger, for example, I can directly send a ship to you, hahaha. ”

"Hehe, normal." Li Yongji smiled, "According to my explanation, the increase in teleportation tonnage is calculated based on the user's survival time and teleportation tonnage. That is, if you don't do anything, as long as you survive, then your teleportation tonnage will increase slightly every day, and if you teleport frequently, then the more tonnage you teleport, the more your teleportation tonnage will increase. ”

"Oh, that's exactly what I expected." Zhang Xinda nodded, "But you're too cheating, you didn't say anything before, and now you suddenly have a text explanation, how good is it to explain it earlier?" ”

"This could be the test." Li Yongji shrugged his shoulders, "At first, it was a trial version, which was for you to experience, and after a certain amount of time, the official version will be opened, giving you a formal explanation, and unlocking new features." ”

"What's new? Are there any new features? ”

"This, it's not clear for the time being, you know, this thing is more cheating." Li Yongji smiled, but still didn't say anything about the new features that were newly opened on his side.

That's right, Zhang Xinda can accept text explanations, and the transmission capacity has been greatly improved, Li Yongji, as the server or real owner of the system, naturally accepts more new changes.

First of all, Li Yongji's tonnage of daily teleportation in different time and space has become larger, and he can transmit up to 500 tons of goods to Li Yongji every day, and the number of days of accumulation reaches 60 days, that is, after 60 days of accumulation, Zhang Xinda can transmit 30,000 tons of goods at one time, of course, limited by Zhang Xinda's storage space is too small, this kind of large-tonnage transmission can only be directly transmitted to the real space of the other party, and cannot be transmitted into the other party's storage space.

Secondly, Li Yongji's own storage capacity has been greatly enhanced, his storage space can store up to 1,000 tons of goods, and the storage space basically has no mental power consumption during the storage of materials. Needless to say, this ability alone has brought great convenience to Li Yongji.

Third, the ability to constrain clients is stronger. As long as Li Yongji is willing, he can erase Zhang Xinda's memory at any time, and even tamper with Zhang Xinda's memory. This kind of tampering is a kind of subconscious tampering, that is, once tampered with, then the client, that is, Zhang Xinda's side, will feel that this is an idea from the bottom of his heart, and will not feel any difference. There is no doubt that this pair of clients, that is, Zhang Xinda's ability to control zhì has been greatly enhanced, but for the time being, Li Yongji does not plan to use this ability, after all, he still has a friendship with Zhang Xinda.

Fourth, a new client slot has been added. In other words, Li Yongji can find another agent to help him deliver the materials, and this agent can be someone Li Yongji knows, or someone with detailed information, of course, it can also be selected randomly.

But the problem is that randomness can only be done once, and once the object is selected, it can't be changed again, so the random function is a little tricky, but among the people Li Yongji knew before, Zhang Xinda was the most reliable, and if you want to say credible words, it is his mother and sister, and choosing them as agents is emotionally a little unbearable.

After all, in Li Yongji's view, there is a certain risk in being an agent, and he hopes that his family in the original world can live more freely and peacefully, and try to stay away from these strange things.

Fortunately, there is an alternative option for this function, that is, to remove this newly added client and use it to enhance the original client, that is, Zhang Xinda's ability. Once the new client quota is removed and Zhang Xinda's ability is enhanced, then Zhang Xinda can now have double the tonnage of transmission, that is, he can transmit 200 tons of goods within 24 hours, can accumulate for 60 consecutive days, and then transmit 12,000 tons of goods at one time.

This made Li Yongji slightly entangled, because even if he didn't double it, according to the current situation, as long as Zhang Xinda lived well and tried his best to use up his teleportation tonnage on time, then his teleportation tonnage would continue to rise, and sooner or later he would reach the capacity of transmitting 200 tons of goods in 24 hours. Although according to experience, the system upgrade is more and more difficult in the future, but as long as you have patience, you can upgrade sooner or later, and now it is a pity to consume this new client quota early, after all, adding a new agent, an agent who can be fully controlled, the benefits to yourself are self-evident.

After thinking about it for a long time, Li Yongji decided to put it on hold for the time being, reserve the quota first, and talk about it when needed later, anyway, according to the current teleportation capacity, it is enough to deal with the current one.

As for the new changes he has gotten, especially the ability to tamper with the client's memory, Li Yongji decided not to say it for the time being, he thinks it is a good thing for both parties, after all, some things are said, the situation is different, at least they can't get along as happily as in the past.

"Hey, hey, what's the fuss you're doing?" Seeing Li Yongji pondering there, Zhang Xinda said, "This is a video conference, hey, this is to determine your future direction, hey, such a big thing, how dare you be distracted?" Don't want weapons? Don't talk about supplies? ”

"Oh oh, weapons, yes, weapons!" Li Yongji, who came back to his senses, nodded and smiled, "How is the weapon you prepared?" I'm recruiting a bit too many people this time, you can't drop the chain. ”

"Haha, weapons, I've already prepared them for you, just more, no less, and there are a lot of new gadgets, well, not much more, on the picture."

After speaking, Zhang Xinda sat on the large class chair and moved to the side slightly, and then lowered a large curtain from the place where his original back was faced, and then the surrounding environment was darkened, and the picture projected by the projector appeared on the screen, which was a schematic diagram of a weapon.
