Lin Fengxiang, Li Kaifang and other dozens of people who stayed in Nanjing besieged the city and whispered in several circles, mostly talking about what positions they would have if they stayed in Nanjing, and how His Royal Highness the King of Han would treat them.

Tang Liang, the commander of the 15th Army on the left, Ye Lian, the commander of the former 13th Army, and others were all newly attached people who took refuge in the Northern Expeditionary Army when they passed through Shaanxi, and consciously stood in a circle and separated themselves from Li Kaifang, Lin Fengxiang and others.

Tang Liang asked in a low voice: "Ye Junshuai, have these Prime Minister Lin and Li Cheng offended His Royal Highness the King of Han, why did the two of them say goodbye to Prime Minister Ji just now, as if they had lost several battles, and their faces looked like that?" ”

Because Ye Lian joined the Taiping Army a month earlier than Tang Liang, she had been behaving like a senior in front of Tang Liang, and reprimanded: "Shut up, are these what you should ask!" Seeing that many people quieted down, pricked up their ears to listen, they couldn't get rid of the gossip psychology of women, and looked at Li Kaifang dodgedly, seeing that no one was paying attention, and whispered: "I heard that Prime Minister Li Cheng betrayed the King of Han, so I didn't dare to stay in Nanjing!" After saying this, he regretted it a little, and added: "You must not spread the word, lest you harm them." ”

Several people all nodded cautiously, but the two of them, Ning Zongyang and Shi Shaohuan, had strange faces, and walked to the other side quietly.

As soon as Li Yunzhong came in, he saw such a situation, and he tacitly knew that he knew a little about the Northern Expeditionary Army, and he already planned to win over these grassroots officers in his heart.

"Meet the King of Han" Everyone stood in two factions according to the size of their official positions.

Since he had already decided to leave for Shanghai tomorrow, Li Yunzhong didn't have time to talk to them, and said in a tone that could not be resisted: "There are 8,256 of your soldiers left in Nanjing, and I plan to organize them into two armies......

Hearing that it was only organized into two armies, Li Kaifang couldn't help but interrupt: "Your Highness, my Northern Expeditionary Army has twelve armies, including the first army, the second right army, the former thirteenth army, the fifteenth left army, and the tenth rear army, how can it only be organized into two armies." ”

Seeing that Li Kaifang took the lead in complaining, many inspectors and commanders were afraid that they would be demoted and used as division commanders and brigade commanders, and they opposed it with nonsense.

"Two armies? Isn't there only a thousand people, how can this be? ”

"I have the twelfth inspection point on the left in front of the palace, how can I serve as the commander of the division." There were a few prime ministers, and he thought that the military commander would not be his turn yet.

…………

Li Yunzhong saw that his voice was getting louder and louder, and he put on a very angry look, and sure enough, he was quiet below, and he lowered his head uneasily, "How many people are there in your army?" ”

Lin Fengxiang replied stubbornly: "The first army has 1,000 to several hundred people, for example, the first army and the second right army each have more than 1,500 people, the first 13th army has 1,000 people because it is all cavalry, and the rest of the armies only have 5 or 600 people. ”

Li Yunzhong sneered: "Back then, I discussed with Feng Yunshan, the king of the south, that the first army consisted of five divisions and twenty-five brigades, with one hundred and twenty-five commanders and five hundred two horses, so that each army should have at least 20,000 people, but I didn't expect you to ...... I actually ate empty salary, and I ate like this! ”

Lin Fengxiang was embarrassed and explained: "Because there were too many people who were rewarded when the capital was set in Tianjing, and there were thousands of people above the division commander, each army had to reduce the number of people......

Later, the newly attached people heard that there were thousands of officials of their rank in Tianjing, and they were greatly disappointed, and many people had already decided to stay in Nanjing, Sichuan was poor, and they had no status if they went, so it was better to stay in Nanjing, a prosperous place, and enjoy the blessings.

Li Yunzhong said proudly: "In the provinces under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty, there are only eight armies, including the women's army and the navy, which means that there are only six armies that officially fight, and your army is not as many as one of our regiments." ”

Ye Lian blinked her big eyes and asked, "May I ask Your Highness, how many people do you have in a regiment?" ”

Li Yunzhong replied with a smile: "In the past, it was stipulated that there were 2,000 people in a regiment, but in recent years, the generals below have expanded privately, and now I am afraid that there are four or five thousand people, a division has more than 10,000 people, and an army has 20,000 or 30,000 people. In this way, I have to add about 10,000 people to you in order to meet the minimum standards of our military system. ”

Huang Yiyun couldn't help but exclaim: "Twenty or thirty thousand people in an army!" This...... So many people! It's like a man from a royal palace in our kingdom of heaven! ”

The soldiers and horses of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom were all under the command of each king, and the system of sub-feudal was implemented, and the kings of the east, west, south, north, and wings not only had legal private soldiers, but also fiefs.

Li Yunzhong continued: "The numbers of these two armies are the Sixth Army and the Eighth Army, and each army has two divisions, six regiments and twelve battalions. Each battalion has five companies, each with about 100 men. ”

Li Kaifang hesitated, this number has been decided, wouldn't it become the private army of the King of Han, how to explain to the King of Heaven when he returns to Tianjing a year later, and objected in a low voice: "Your Highness, this is not appropriate, these holy soldiers are all current soldiers in the Kingdom of Heaven, and they rashly gave up the existing number, this ...... Isn't this a betrayal of the kingdom of heaven! After death, he will go to hell. ”

Li Yunzhong saw that Li Kaifang's words broke through the mystery, so he suppressed his aura first, and criticized by changing the topic: "What hell? At first glance, you know that you have not read the Bible, and you do not know God and Jesus! God dwells in heaven, and hell is the hell of the West...... In short, you are wrong, you are a false believer, and you will not ascend to heaven after death! ”

Isn't this nonsense! Li Kaifang glanced at Zhu Xikun, hoping that he would also come out to oppose it, as long as the generals of their Northern Expeditionary Army were united, the King of Han would not be able to do anything about them.

Zhu Xikun saw Li Kaifang blinking desperately at himself, he didn't dare to make a bird, pretended not to see, and continued to bow his head to 'count ants'.

Li Kaifang was angry, and then bent his head to look at Huang Yiyun, and pouted in the direction of King Han. Huang Yiyun also kept looking up at the roof beams, not daring to object.

"Brother Li, what's wrong with your head, you're always swaying from side to side, do you want me to find you a Langzhong." Li Yunzhong looked at Li Kaifang's anxious appearance and felt quite funny.

Li Kaifang sneered and said: "The little one is an old problem, just turn around!" Don't bother Your Highness. ”

Lin Fengxiang saw that Li Kaifang was defeated, so he stepped forward and persuaded: "Your Highness, think twice, if you forcibly annex our Northern Expeditionary Army, you just want to...... If you want to force us to death, the law of heaven: those who lose their army will be beheaded. When we return to Tianjing alone, it will be a dead end. ”

As soon as Li Yunzhong heard that there was a door, he promised: "If you are willing to return to Tianjing in a year's time, I will not stop you, I will prepare weapons, food and grass for you, and go wherever you want." ”

Li Kaifang and Lin Fengxiang glanced at each other and nodded, they were under the eaves and had to bow their heads. should repay the kindness of the king of Han for taking him in.

Li Yunzhong waited for a moment, no one objected, and continued: "Then now that I announce the personnel appointment, you must be mentally prepared, tomorrow the Sixth Army and the Eighth Army will complete the reorganization and go to Jiangnan, and the people who merge with you to form an army are some brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society." ”

Lin Fengxiang frowned, and stopped talking. Influenced by the atmosphere of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he also looked down on the party members in his heart, and the military discipline was lax, burning, killing and looting, and his nature was repeated.

Li Yunzhong took out the plan that had been prepared and read it out: "The commander of the Sixth Army is Lin Fengxiang, under the jurisdiction of the 11th and 12th divisions, the commander of the 11th division is Liu Lichuan, and Huang Yiyun is the commander and deputy commander of the 12th division. The 11th Division has three regiments. The regimental commander is appointed by the military department.

The commander of the Eighth Army was Li Kaifang, and Zhu Xikun was also the chief of staff, under the jurisdiction of the 15th and 16th Divisions, Tang Liang was appointed as the commander of the 15th Division, and Ye Lian was appointed as the commander of the 16th Division. ”

Ye Lian plucked up the courage and asked, "The division commander can command 10,000 people!" How big is it? ”

Li Yunzhong also briefly introduced the grade of the Han Dynasty: "The army commander is the third grade, the deputy army commander and the chief of staff are the third grade, the division commander is the fourth grade, the regiment commander is the fifth grade, and the battalion commander is the sixth grade......
