Chapter 129: Independent Brigade

For Qin Zhen's proposal, everyone readily agreed, but it was a little difficult to decide on the candidate for this team for a while.

Xue Yuan lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then stood up and said: "Captain, I want Mao Sui to recommend himself to be the captain of this independent brigade, please rest assured that the captain, deputy lieutenant and all the team members are assured, I will definitely let our Weizhou Independent Brigade develop and grow in this Longshan." ”

Seeing Xue Yuan's self-recommendation, Qin Zhen's eyes lit up, to be honest, among the seven people seated, there was no one more suitable for the position of the team leader of this independent brigade than Xue Yuan.

When Qin Zhen proposed to set up the Weizhou Zhechong Mansion Independent Brigade in Longshan Black Dragon Village, the first candidate for the team that came to his mind was Xue Yuan, and he was thinking about asking Xue Yuan's own opinion, but he didn't expect Xue Yuan to propose it himself.

Xue Yuan's ability is beyond doubt, although Xue Yuan's stay in Weizhou has been in Weizhou for less than a month, but Qin Zhen believes that as long as there are brothers who were born and died together, Xue Yuan's loyalty to Weizhou Zhichong Mansion is not discounted.

Regarding Xue Yuan's appointment as the head of the independent brigade, Qin Zhen, Meng Xuan, and Chen Luosheng naturally strongly supported it, and Wang Zhu and Zhao Feihu also clearly knew Xue Yuan's ability and the relationship between him and Qin Zhen, so they also agreed, only Liu Sheng didn't know much about Xue Yuan, but when he saw that the other five people all agreed, he also agreed.

Qin Zhen proposed that the first, second, and third teams each assign one person to serve as the deputy team leader, and cooperate with Xue Yuan to manage the independent team, and let the four teams each send fifteen people as the backbone framework of the independent team.

Qin Zhen's arrangement, Wang Zhu, Liu Sheng, and Zhao Feihu also readily agreed, and at the same time, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts and gave a thumbs up to Qin Zhen's approach.

Originally, all the Fengxiang Mansion War Horse transactions were initiated by the Flying Eagle Regiment, and their task was to protect the safety of this transaction, as for the proceeds of this time, except for the part that Qin Zhen and Guo Wei had agreed on, the rest should all belong to the Flying Eagle Regiment, and this time fighting with the Longshan bandits, the Flying Eagle Regiment suffered the greatest losses, even if Qin Zhen classified the entire independent brigade under the name of the Flying Eagle Regiment, they couldn't say anything wrong, but after all, they wouldn't be too comfortable in their hearts.

Now Qin Zhen didn't eat alone, he put the independent brigade under the name of the entire Weizhou Zhichong Mansion, and let all four teams participate in the management, which made the three of them look at Qin Zhen with more admiration.

Zhao Feihu suddenly scratched his head, and said with some concern: "This Black Dragon Village is remote and precipitous, in the past, this gang of bandits lived by robbery, our independent brigade must not rob, it is too far away from Weizhou, there is no stable logistics support, how can the independent brigade survive?" ”

Xue Yuan laughed: "Team Wang doesn't have to worry, we have the general manager of Luosheng, the Flying Eagle Commercial Bank, are we still worried that the independent team has no way to survive?" ”

Zhao Feihu patted his head: "Oh, yes, you see that my brain is spinning slowly." ”

After everything was agreed, the four teams were arranged overnight.

After Xue Yuan inspected outside, he came back and discussed with Qin Zhen that the fourth team now has fifteen seriously injured people, and it is just right to leave these fifteen seriously injured in Heilongzhai to recuperate, and after the injuries are healed, they will stay in the independent brigade.

"Captain, there is one more thing that you need to coordinate now." Xue Yuan said in a deep voice.

"You're talking about doctors, aren't you?" Qin Zhen asked.

Xue Yuan nodded and said: "Yes, what is most lacking in Black Dragon Village now is doctors, it is far away from villages and towns, it is extremely inconvenient to ask for doctors, and now these wounded people who stay in Black Dragon Village also have to be taken care of, so I want to ask one of the two doctors to stay in the independent brigade." ”

Qin Zhen nodded: "Okay, so many things have happened today, the two doctors are estimated to be tired, it is not appropriate to disturb them at this time, I will go to them tomorrow to discuss." ”

As he was talking, Yang Xiaoqi suddenly broke in: "Captain Qin, Deputy Captain Meng, I also want to stay." ”

Meng Xuan said with a smile: "Xiao Qi, you are now the deputy head of our Flying Eagle Regiment, and the independent team now has three deputy team leaders, if you stay in the independent team, you will not have the position of deputy team leader." ”

Yang Xiaoqi said with a straight face: "I understand. ”

Qin Zhen thoughtfully: "Since Xiao Qi wants to stay, then stay, Xiao Qi is from Orion, and he has been used to running in the mountains since he was a child, I think Xiao Qi's role in this Long is greater than that in Tong'an Town, but as Deputy Captain Meng said, the independent brigade has no position as a deputy team leader, so you can only deign to be a chief." ”

Yang Xiaoqi said happily: "Thank you for the success of the captain, as long as I can stay, don't say that I am a captain, even if I am an ordinary soldier, I am willing to be an ordinary soldier." ”

Xue Yuan smiled: "It's great that Xiao Qi can stay and help me, we can fight side by side again." ”

In an open space in the Black Dragon Village, more than two hundred bandits from the Black Dragon Village and Erlong Mountain were all gathered together, looking at the surrounding Zhichong Mansion armor soldiers and Qin Zhen and others standing on the high platform, they all showed panicked expressions on their faces, not knowing what the fate would be next.

"I know that most of you are not born to like to be bandits, but more because of the compulsion of life, you have to go up the mountain to be a bandit, if you are born in a peaceful and prosperous world, everyone is well fed and clothed at the bottom of the mountain, who wants to go up the mountain to be a bandit." Qin Zhen said slowly, his voice was not particularly loud, but it was enough for more than two hundred people to hear clearly.

The bandits below were all stunned, they had thought about many scenes, but they didn't think that Qin Zhen would speak for them as soon as he opened his mouth, and their faces became complicated for a while.

"However, no matter whether you made a decision out of your own heart or against your will, it is an indisputable fact that you have gathered the mountains and forests, robbed the officials, businessmen and people, and endangered one party." Qin Zhen looked serious and continued.

"Now we Weizhou Zhichong Mansion want to form an independent brigade here, we need to recruit new soldiers, I give you a chance to change the identity of bandits, if you are willing to join our Weizhou army, stand on the left, if you are not willing to join the army, stand on the right, we will send you away, for whether you join the army, everything depends on your willingness, we do not force it." Qin Zhen's voice became majestic.

"If we join the army, can we really become real soldiers like them? Will we look the other way because we were bandits? One of the bandits asked loudly as he pointed at the armor soldiers around him.

"As long as you join the Weizhou Zhichong Mansion, from the moment you join, you will be a real soldier of the Weizhou Zhichong Mansion, no different from them, eat the same food, wear the same clothes, and be subject to the same military discipline. Qin Zhen said solemnly.

After Qin Zhen finished speaking, more than 200 people fell silent, and then they exchanged heads with each other and discussed with each other.

"I am willing to join Weizhou Zhichong Mansion!" One of the bandits shouted as he raised his hand and walked to the left of the group.

"I am also willing to join the Weizhou Army!"

"I do, too!"

......

One by one, the bandits of Black Dragon Village and Erlong Mountain shouted loudly, and came to the team on the left, some of them were really willing to join the Weizhou Zhichong Mansion, some did not have their own ideas, and came with the main flow, and some were taken by the surrounding Weizhou Zhichong Mansion soldiers against their will to join.

There were also dozens of bandits who seemed a little hesitant, it seemed that they didn't want to join the Weizhou army, their eyes glanced at Qin Zhen and the surrounding Weizhou army from time to time, and one of the bandits dared to ask: "My lord, is it true that you said that we should choose voluntarily?" ”

Qin Zhen smiled lightly: "Of course it's true, if you don't want to join our Weizhou Zhichong Mansion, I will let you go later." ”

Immediately, Qin Zhen's face became serious: "But there is one condition, you can not join the army, you can do whatever you want after you go down the mountain, but you can't be a bandit anymore, if you meet it next time I want to suppress bandits, it won't be as easy to talk as today as it is today." ”

Hearing Qin Zhen's conditions, these bandits were a little relieved, they discussed with each other again, and more than a dozen people came to the left side of the team, and the remaining twenty or so people moved to the right.

Qin Zhen looked at the two waves of teams that were clearly distinguished, and nodded with satisfaction, this result was much better than he expected.

Standing on the right and wanting to leave, these people Qin Zhen arranged for each person to be given five taels of silver, and sent someone to send them out of the village, these people did not expect that Qin Zhen not only did not embarrass them, but also gave them silver taels, and knelt on the spot to thank them.

"From now on, you are a member of the Weizhou Zhichong Prefecture soldiers, you will form our Weizhou Zhichong Mansion Independent Brigade stationed in this Longshan, from now on, you don't have to rob anymore, you have our own logistics supplies to send you supplies. This is Xue Yuanxue's team leader, and in the future, he will be the team leader of the independent brigade, and all of you are under his control. ”

After appeasing these bandits, Xue Yuan immediately entered the role of the leader of the independent brigade, and let the three deputy teams take the backbone of the Zhichong Mansion to reorganize the newly joined bandits.

"From now on, your tasks are mainly threefold: first, military training, so that they can become qualified soldiers of Ochong Province; second, to protect the smooth flow of trade routes in Longshan; The third is to clear out the other bandit forces in Longshan and strengthen our power. Qin Zhen said as he left.

Xue Yuan nodded in understanding.

Meng Xuan said with emotion: "This Black Dragon Village and Erlong alone have recruited nearly two hundred recruits, and there are dozens of bandit forces large and small in Longshan. Xue Yuan, it won't be long before your team will lead more soldiers than me, the deputy lieutenant. ”

Chen Luosheng said with a smile: "Why wait until later, now Team Xue is leading more soldiers than you." ”
