In the ninth year of the new calendar of Longhua, Xu Bin's first Spring Festival in this time and space finally arrived. At the end of the battle of the bandit coalition army attacking the mountain, the Xu family army, which was entrenched in Heifeng Village, finally gained valuable training time. The recruits who were subsequently incorporated and recruited in Baofeng Town, after three months of complete military training, were finally assigned to various companies as official soldiers of the Xu Family Army.

In addition to the more than 20 village-level joint defense teams formed in various villages of Baofeng Town, the regular army of Xujia Army has officially exceeded the 500 mark. In addition to the three infantry companies that were already full, Xu Bin also formed a guard platoon with Xu Jiacheng as the platoon leader.

In addition, the mortar detachment trained by him has officially become an independent infantry company, directly under the command of Xu Bin.

And Xu Bin, who has been called a big boss for a long time, now has an official title in the army, that is, the battalion commander of the Xu family's army. The deputy battalion commander was Xu Yizhong, who was responsible for the logistics of the Xu family camp in addition to military command.

The logistics brigade under his command, in addition to the old bandits who had been eliminated in the past, also set up a special reserve transport team. For the first time, the number of personnel also exceeded the 200 mark. It can be said that in terms of numbers alone, Xu Yizhong can command only slightly fewer troops than Xu Bin.

In Xujiaying, the army was officially formed, and it ushered in the most lively Spring Festival for the people of Longhua. Except for the companies that need to be on combat readiness duty, they are not allowed to go out without permission, and the other recruits who have not returned home once in the three months they have been on the mountain. The day before the Spring Festival, after handing over the leave form to the squad where he was located, he was sent home to spend the holiday with his relatives.

Of course, the soldiers who enjoy this right are limited to Baofeng Town, which is completely under their control for the time being. The rest of the soldiers from Jinzhu Town, considering the impact, Xu Bin did not approve their leave. However, they still handed over the subsidies and rewards they received to the soldiers of the logistics department and handed them over to their families, so that the families of these soldiers could have a slightly comfortable Spring Festival.

Bai Mulan, who had been accompanying Xu Bin to stay in Heifeng Village for military training, was also picked up by someone sent by Baidiantang a few days ago to celebrate the New Year. Therefore, without this fiancée who was sticking to him more and more, Xu Bin suddenly felt as if there was something missing.

In order to celebrate the first Spring Festival of this era, Xu Bin instructed the second uncle to slaughter several fat pigs of nearly 300 catties at a time and add food to these people who stayed in the mountains for the New Year. Seeing the cooking class of the cottage, several fat pigs were killed in the morning, and these soldiers who stayed on the mountain for the New Year also began to run to tell each other, looking forward to the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the evening.

When the rallying horn for dinner sounded, the soldiers who were brought to the dining hall for dinner began to salivate when they saw a large pot of braised pork on the dining table. As if knowing that these people were anxious to have dinner, Xu Bin gave these soldiers an early greeting, and announced that they would not have to go out to exercise tomorrow and could rest.

The sentry of the cottage at night will also be carried out by officers and men from the guard platoon. The rest of the soldiers who usually serve as sentry guards were undoubtedly smiling from ear to ear when they could relax and eat and drink tonight.

As Xu Bin opened the meal, the soldiers who looked at the braised pork and other rare good dishes on the dinner table were eager to eat more. Some soldiers, who hadn't tasted the taste of wine for a long time, also began to push their glasses to celebrate when they looked at a jar of water and wine placed beside them.

Although they don't know what other cottages are like this year, the soldiers who stayed in the mountains for the New Year this time. They all felt that this was the most sumptuous and comfortable Chinese New Year's Eve meal they had ever eaten when they were so old. And because the officers need to be on duty at night, most of them toast with their soldiers and chat about their intentions after a glass of wine, and then they do not accompany these soldiers who began to eat and drink.

Compared with the recruits, who didn't know the severity and were drunk and dizzy, the veterans seemed relatively calm. Feeling that they almost stopped drinking, because they knew that as Xu Jiajun, they could not relax their vigilance at any time. The veterans who have been rectified by Xu Bin once before are now very comfortable drinking.

Seeing that the veterans in the restaurant had developed the habit of not getting drunk easily at any time, Xu Bin felt very satisfied. As for these recruits who began to drink a lot, although he was a little unhappy in his heart, he also knew that after joining the Xu family's army, the opportunity for these people to drink was undoubtedly greatly reduced.

It is different from the propaganda of other bandit cottages, which eat meat and drink wine. Xu Jiajun is very strict with the control of wine, and as for meat, he has the logistics department to raise it himself. Basically, every soldier is guaranteed an egg for breakfast. You can eat meat for one of the three meals a day, and only provide rice for the rest of the day when it is not a festival.

But even so, the soldiers who were recruited to the mountains some time ago did not continue to be thin after three months of hard training. Many people obviously feel that after three months of coming here, their complexion and energy are much better than when they were at home. This is most directly reflected in the soldier's home who was granted leave and returned to the village to spend the New Year with his family.

Although the population of Baofeng Town is not large, it has the stationing of the Xu family's army, and from time to time from the people, buy some livestock or daily necessities. The people of Baofeng Town were pleasantly surprised to find that this year was much better than previous years. At least they don't have to worry about being blocked by the landlord on Chinese New Year's Eve to collect rent.

Especially those people who have many children in the family, and sent their children to the Xu family army in order to make ends meet, not to mention seeing their son come back with new clothes and new pants, they also brought back a few bright Long Yangxin stickers. With these stickers, these families with children who joined the army in the Xu family army became the envy of the whole village.

I used to think that going to the mountains to be a soldier was a bit unsafe, but when I saw that I also had such a big young son. I also began to think about whether to finish the New Year and send my children to the mountains to serve as soldiers. If they don't rush anything else, they just rush to the children to the mountains without worrying about food and clothing, and they can get back a Long Yang every month, and they also think it's worth it.

As for those veterans who were criticized for returning home on leave, after they were named by Xu Jiajun, their families also became the objects of envy of the villagers from the time when they were gossiped about by the villagers. Especially when the money these veterans got back was enough for them to buy dozens of acres of good land, the people who originally disliked them for going up to the mountains to become bandits were also very polite to these veterans who returned home.

It is these soldiers who have returned home for the New Year, who have brought the most intuitive life changes to their homes when they return home, and the soldiers who returned to the army to sell their vacations after the holiday have brought back a message. That is Xu Jiajun, whether he still recruits soldiers.

In this year, when the warlords were unable to recruit soldiers, and many of them were popular, the young people near Baofeng Town who were willing to participate in the Xu family army suddenly became surging as these soldiers returned home.

In view of the willingness of these young men to join the Xu family's army, Xu Bin decided to expand a recruit company after thinking about it. For the first time, the selection of new recruits was forwarded to the joint defense captains of each village for recommendation. For a time, these joint defense captains also felt that they were in the spotlight, and sometimes it was not a good thing.

Fortunately, these joint defense captains have received the requirements of the conscription in advance, that is, they must be between the ages of 18 and 25. In addition, if there is only one son in the family, it will not be accepted, and if two brothers sign up at the same time, only the elder brother will be accepted and the younger brother will not be accepted. These conscription conditions are met after the Joint Defence Team has undergone some basic military training for the team. Then the officers of the recruit company sent down the mountain were directly brought back to the mountains for training.

At the same time as they were taken away, the officers of the recruit company would also inform the parents of the recruits that their names had been given to their sons and that they would enjoy the benefits. After each recruit is routinely given five Longyang settling-in allowances to his family, this recruit is considered to have officially entered the Xu family's army.

Seeing that Xu Jiajun's influence began to stabilize in Baofeng Town and began to spread to the outside world, Xu Bin deliberately asked the second uncle to choose some people with strong mouths. Go and encourage the children of the people in other towns and towns to come to the permanent recruitment point in Baofeng Town to sign up for the army. As long as the conditions are suitable, a settling-in allowance of five Longyang will be issued.

As the news spread, a situation appeared that made Xu Bin smile from ear to ear. In just one week, he recruited 500 peasant children from another main battalion from the towns around Juxiang City, who were all in good physical condition. As long as the recruits of this main battalion are trained, then his Xu family army will truly become the biggest armed force in this orange city.

Knowing that it will take some time for recruit training, Xu Bin, who has just finished the New Year, feels that it is a bit too wasteful to always leave the three infantry companies trained in this way. Therefore, a decision was soon made to let these three infantry companies carry out a competitive operation to rob the rich and help the poor.

It is not allowed to play the signboard of the Xu family's army, but every time you go out, you must bring back the harvest, regardless of whether the local tyrants and inferior gentry or other bandit cottages outside the military peak mountain. In short, as Xu Bin requested, that is, the target of the attack must be the wicked person with great public anger.

For those who fail in this kind of competition, there is no doubt that these big men are very hated, washing underwear for the winning side. Two days of reconnaissance, one day of offensive. Three in a cycle, based on the final harvest of the winner. Aside from the previous wins and losses, the winning company can get an extra share of the capture bonus.

As soon as the rules were posted, they immediately attracted cheers from the soldiers of the three companies. You must know that in addition to the veterans who were trained by Xu Bin before, they received very attractive war dividends, and these recruits who joined later in addition to the monthly stickers and the rewards they received from training pacesetters. They have not enjoyed the other most lucrative war dividends.

Therefore, after receiving Xu Bin's somewhat gamified game notice, everyone began to gear up and prepare for a big fight! And Xu Yizhong is undoubtedly the most excited about his nephew's sudden idea of using this kind of competition to reduce the responsibility of the later department.

Although a lot of money has to be divided for each seizure, doesn't the final big head still belong to him? can make these people willingly make money for themselves, and there is no risk in taking it out, unless this is a fool, Xu Yizhong has no reason to support it?
