"Brother, what are you talking nonsense!" Li Yanling stomped her feet, she didn't expect Li Zhenwu to make such a request.

Wu Haoxuan was also stunned, he didn't expect Li Zhenwu's request to be like this. Could it be that his character exploded, and the beauties threw themselves into their arms? Li Yanling, this chick, although a little wilder. But he looks very good, and he also has a wild beauty that other women don't have.

Fortunately, it is normal for men in this era to have three wives and four concubines. Wu Haoxuan naturally didn't think about starting with a wife. It's just that I've been so busy lately that I don't have time to look for flowers and willows.

"Okay, I'll help you with that. Let Yan Ling be my secretary for a while first! Wu Haoxuan immediately agreed. At this time, if anyone refuses, they must be fools. Don't want the beauties sent to the door, only fools can do it.

Wu Haoxuan was a *** silk in his last life, and he could only drool at the beauties on the street. Now, there is a beautiful woman sent to the door, of course he will not refuse. Let Li Yanling be the secretary first, and then find a chance to eat it.

Although, Li Zhenwu didn't know what a secretary did. However, since Wu Haoxuan had already nodded, he was relieved.

"With the words of the young marshal, I am relieved. In the future, if I, Li Zhenwu, frown, will not be a hero. Li Zhenwu's chest thumped.

Although Li Yanling was a little shy, she surprisingly did not refuse. This made Li Zhenwu even more convinced that his idea was correct.

Erlongshan's beard accepted Zhao'an, and Li Zhenwu was appointed major battalion commander. The rest of the leaders were also appointed. However, officers above the company level must go to the military academy for training. Only after passing the training can one become a real officer of the Jilin Army. The other beards of Erlongshan, who were willing to join the army, began to pay military salaries according to the standards of the Jilin Army. Those who did not want to join the army were also paid severance pay.

The old and weak women and children of Erlong Mountain were placed in a town outside Baicheng. From now on, they are ordinary people under Jilin, and they are no longer beards. Such a placement made the beards of Erlongshan very satisfied.

Li Zhenwu took a few of his men to the military academy to report, and Wu Haoxuan had Li Yanling's little tail by his side. After leaving Erlong Mountain, Li Yanling looked a little restrained and uneasy. After all, from now on, she will have to rely on herself. Fortunately, Wu Haoxuan took care of her very much and made her feel a little warm.

When Li Yanling changed into the women's uniform of the Jilin Army, she couldn't help but make people's eyes shine. This is a second lieutenant uniform. From now on, Li Yanling's official identity will be that of a staff officer of the General Staff Office of the Jilin Army General Staff Headquarters, and concurrently the secretary of Wu Haoxuan, chief of staff.

When Wu Haoxuan brought Li Yanling back to the Overseer's Mansion, Wu Xingquan and his wife did not despise this female bandit, but were very good. This made Li Yanling, who lost her father since she was a child, very moved. Wu Haoxuan's wife, Ma Jiahui, treats Li Yanling as a sister. Although, Li Yanling is even younger than her. However, as Wu Haoxuan's wife, Ma Jiahui is the main room. And even if Li Yanling enters the gate of the Wu family in the future, she can only be a concubine.

Ma Jiahui was originally a weak person, and now that she is a few months pregnant, she has a maternal glow on her face. She knew that if she wanted to tie up Wu Haoxuan, it would be impossible. So, as long as she holds her position, that's enough. Anyway, no matter how many women Wu Haoxuan will have in the future, she will be the main room.

In this way, Li Yanling gradually integrated into the family. The high-ranking military and political officials in Jilin and Heilongjiang also knew that the beautiful woman who followed Wu Haoxuan would become one of the young marshal's wives. Although Li Yanling's military rank is nothing more than a second lieutenant. But those major generals and division commanders were very kind to her.

The Zhao'an of Erlong Mountain had a huge impact on the beard of the entire western part of Jilin. Isn't that the bearded people who committed the most heinous crimes learned from Erlongshan to surrender to the Jilin Army, which made the battle plan for suppressing bandits smoothly.

By mid-June, the crackdown on bandits had almost been successful. The beards that are active in Jilin and Heilongjiang provinces have almost disappeared, and even if there are a few left, they are all hidden, and they dare not come out to do evil again. The rest of the beards were either killed in the fight against the bandits or surrendered. Others fled the provinces of Jilin and Heilongjiang and fled to Mukden, Rehe and Mongolia. For these beards, since Jilin and Heilongjiang can't stay any longer, they can move to other places at any time. There are so many places in the world, there will always be a place for them.

Wu Haoxuan's several goals in launching the anti-bandit campaign have almost been achieved. After the influence of the beard was gone, the people of Jilin and Heilongjiang settled down a lot. The displaced people attracted from Kannai also began to live and work in peace and contentment. And Wu Haoxuan and them got a lot of strength. These are the best soldiers!

On June 18, 1906, Wu Haoxuan held a military meeting at the General Staff Headquarters in Jilin, which was attended by Wu Xingquan, the overseer. In addition, Shi Deshan, commander of the 1st Division, Zhao Xifu, commander of the 2nd Division, Shi Tianhan, commander of the 3rd Division, James, deputy commander of the instructor, and chief officers of the Operations Department, Training Department, Equipment Department, and Logistics Department under the General Staff Headquarters also attended the meeting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, after more than two months of hard work, our anti-bandit operation has come to an end. In this battle, we basically swept away the beards of Jilin and Heilongjiang, so that the support of the broad masses of the people for us increased day by day. It's all a credit to all of you, and on behalf of the Overseer's House, I thank you! Wu Xingquan first spoke at the meeting.

The other generals naturally didn't dare to even say it.

"Okay, I won't talk about the extra nonsense, what to do, it's all up to Haoxuan to arrange. I've got to go back to business. After Wu Xingquan dropped this sentence, he left the staff headquarters directly. He came today to stand on the platform for Wu Haoxuan.

"Send the handsome!" The generals all stood up and saluted. Wu Xingquan nodded and strode out of the conference room.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in this anti-bandit operation, our troops have had a lot of problems. Although, after hard training, the soldiers' fighting qualities have improved a lot. But again, because I haven't been on the battlefield. So there are all kinds of ills. I believe that after this operation, all the ministries already know what problems the troops are facing. In the next training, I hope that all departments will be able to train on these issues. Wu Haoxuan said sternly. If these problems are not resolved, they will have a tremendous impact on the combat effectiveness of the Jilin Army.

Several division commanders nodded their heads again and again, the weapons and equipment of the troops were so good, and the training was hard enough. However, there is always a difference between the battlefield and the training ground. Many soldiers will inevitably be frightened when they go to war for the first time.

"In this battle, our army lost a total of 703 killed, 527 seriously wounded, and more than 3,400 lightly wounded. However, after recovering from their injuries, most of the lightly wounded were able to return to the troops. Wu Haoxuan continued.

The dead and seriously wounded are considered the real losses of the troops. After a battle to suppress bandits, the Jilin Army lost more than one battalion of troops, which made him feel a little distressed. This is still against bandits, and if we encounter the Japanese, wouldn't the casualties be even greater? However, fortunately, the troops have already seen blood, and in the next battle, the combat power should be improved a lot.

"Although the loss is not small, it is very small compared to the results we have achieved. In more than two months of anti-bandit operations, we wiped out more than 150,000 beards. Of these, more than 20,000 were killed, and tens of thousands more were seriously injured. Of the remaining 120,000 people, 60 percent were willing to join the army. In other words, we now have four more infantry divisions. ”

"Four more infantry divisions? That's a good feeling. In this way, we will have eight infantry divisions, a total of nearly 150,000 people, even compared with Yuan Datou, it is not a lot! Major General Shi Deshan's face was happy.

"Yes, once we have eight infantry divisions, we can sweep through the northeast. However, if you want to deal with the little devil and the old hairyman, this is not enough. In the last war, Little Devil and Lao Maozi invested 400,000 and 500,000 respectively. Zhao Xifu said.

"I already told you about the expansion plan last time. That is, after the anti-bandit operation, we plan to expand by 4 infantry divisions or 8 infantry divisions. Since we have now acquired 4 infantry divisions, we only need to recruit 4 more infantry divisions. Recently, there are quite a few strong people who have come from the Guannai, and it should not be a problem to recruit soldiers from the four infantry divisions. Therefore, I decided to expand the Jilin Army by 8 infantry divisions, bringing the Jilin Army's troops to 12 infantry divisions. The expanded numbers are the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th and 11th Divisions of the Jilin Army. The expansion will be completed by the end of next month, and then training will begin. I hope that the troops will be able to form combat effectiveness in the shortest possible time. Wu Haoxuan said solemnly.

Yuan Shikai's integration of the forces in the Guannei has reached a critical point, and the situation in the northeast is not peaceful. The contradiction between Zhang Yuting and Feng Linge is getting bigger and bigger, and Little Japan and Lao Maozi are also fanning the flames. In such a situation, apart from expanding the army and enhancing his own military strength, Wu Haoxuan had no other way.
