There are still problems with the current sequence of the Flying Tiger Army, and in order to facilitate command, Gao Zhong incorporated the independent battalion into the northward detachment.

The independent battalion brought by the second uncle had only one company of cavalry, one company of crossbow artillery, two companies of infantry and a battalion headquarters of the second infantry battalion to which Zhao Huan belonged, totaling 650 people. Stilwell served as the commander of the independent battalion, Zhao Huan was the deputy battalion commander, and Su Tong, the instructor of the former third infantry battalion, was the instructor. Gao Chong's previous northward detachment totaled more than 240 people, mainly the cavalry platoon, the guards platoon, a platoon of the scout company of the Gao family's personal guard battalion, 120 people drawn from the fast counter (cavalry) battalion, and four staff officers of the staff headquarters. There was some change in the number of people on the way, but the total number of people did not change much. The Qian family's bodyguard, Boss Qian, had another task and could not be incorporated into the Flying Tiger Army, but more than 20 members of the Deng family, including Deng Yuan and Deng Bo, all asked to join the Flying Tiger Army, and after following and training all the way, plus the original considerable physical fitness and force, they basically met the requirements of the Flying Tiger Army. So now the Flying Tiger Army should have in Yinyin:

Two cavalry companies

An artillery battery

Two infantry companies

One Guards Company (Cavalry Platoon, Guards Platoon, Scout Platoon)

A detachment headquarters consisting of a battalion headquarters, accompanying staff officers, etc

The northward detachment consisted of six companies and one detachment headquarters. A total of 900 people. It is divided into three squadrons, a quick reaction squadron composed of two cavalry companies, an infantry squadron composed of two infantry companies, and a direct squadron composed of artillery companies and guards companies.

The detachment consisted of Gao Chong as the detachment leader, the second uncle Gao Shilu as the detachment's political commissar, Su Tong as the detachment's deputy instructor, Zhang Dazhu as the squadron leader of the squadron directly under him, Stilwell as the detachment leader of the quick reaction detachment, and Zhao Huan as the detachment leader of the infantry detachment. Both brothers of the Deng family entered the general staff.

Qian San and Zhao Yi went out to contact the rebels for more than a month, because one was in the east, Jingbian and Dingyuan, and the other was in the west Guyuan, Pingliang and Hexi corridors, the distance was very far from the east and the west, and the time was tight.

Zhao Yi was responsible for the construction of the entire Sweetwater Fort, the construction of the intelligence network in Western Xia, and the organization of the reorganization and training of the Eastern Righteous Army. Sweetwater Fort also needs internal security personnel, and in addition to leaving twenty or thirty personnel of the Flying Tiger Army, Gao Chong's other forces are organized by Zhao Yi himself, so he doesn't want the righteous army he contacted to participate in the war this time.

Gao Chong estimated that Qian San would have results in the next two days, but he didn't expect that when Gao Chong held a reorganization meeting, Qian San and Qian Jichen were already waiting outside. As soon as the meeting was over, two people came in.

"Gao Pet, the third child is back, he wants to report to you about the contact of the rebels in Hexi this time." Qian Jichen came in and said to Gao Pet. Along the way, he has long stopped calling Gao Pet Gao Gongzi, he is older than Gao Pet's father, but he can't be called Gao Pet's second uncle, he simply called Gao Pet.

During this time, things were going smoothly with Gao Pet, and a series of changes and adventures made him unable to believe it. Although this territory is the princess's, it is no different from the high pet, the princess is Pepsi, and she sticks to the high pet when she is free. The affairs in the territory are handled by the people of the Gao family, such as the construction of the station, the arrangement of officials, the management of materials and logistics, the placement of personnel, and so on. And the power of Gao Pet, Gao Shilu brought seven hundred people this time, and the absolutely powerful power made him unbelievable, and what made Qian Jichen even more tongue-in-cheek was that the eighteen thunderbolts assembled in Yuyin could be moved anywhere with one person, and this thunderbolt that looked like a crossbow shot was not a crossbow arrow but a Dongdong called the Thunderbolt God Thunderball, which could shoot more than 900 steps. In addition, there is a Thunderbolt rocket that has a longer range, reaching more than 1,200 steps. I really don't know what other good things this Gao family has.

More than 100 years have passed, some of them have been passed down for several generations, some have also degenerated into sand thieves, and some are some remnants of the Song army who swept Guanzhong and retreated to Western Xia after the defeat of the Battle of Fuping two years ago. In total, there are more than 10 organizations, and each branch has more or less people, more than 5 or 600, and as few as a few dozen, with a total of nearly 2,000 people. There are a few that are far away and haven't been contacted yet.

A few branches have a deep relationship with the Qian family, and even people and horses came this time, but a few of them didn't want to believe Qian San's words, and they had to meet Gao Zhong before making a decision. Besides, they are from the Great Song Dynasty, and they are all in their bones, and the princess of the prison country is the prison of the Western Xia Kingdom, and they still don't believe that there is such a thing. After listening to Qian San's introduction, Gao Zhong said:

"Very good, Qian San, you have worked hard this time. In the evening, I arranged to invite them to dinner, eat Jiangnan flavor, let them experience the life of the Song people, and use this opportunity to talk together. Whether they are willing to follow or live their current life, in the end, they still have to make their own decisions. You go ahead and arrange it. The place is in the princess's mansion. ”

When Qian San left, Boss Qian also wanted to leave, so Gao Zhong grabbed him.

"Boss Qian, don't leave yet, I still have something to discuss with you, it's still a big deal." Gao Pet stood up and picked up the copper kettle on the stove to make tea for Qian Jichen. While speaking, he gave the teacup to Qian Jichen:

"Boss Qian, I'm really short of manpower now, can you come out to help?" Gao Pet is not lacking one person but many people, of course, what is more lacking is the person who can be in charge, the administration of the territory, the territory, the troops, especially the logistics of the Wolf Tooth Army, the construction of the entire territory, everything has just begun, a lot of things. I don't have so much energy, and the princess doesn't have a person in Western Xia, and now I don't care about anything except stamping.

"I don't run up and down for you every day, don't I help you do things?"

"This is different, you see, this place, there is also the army, I am doing all the big and small affairs by myself, and Zhao Yi is not here, although my second uncle has also helped me do a lot, but I have not given him most of the affairs of the army. The administrative, logistical, and material management in this place are many and complicated, and they really can't grasp it without a certain amount of experience, and there are too few people who understand management. I think only you are the most suitable, I know your home, what you usually teach, and what you learn. Don't tell me no, it's your family's heritage. You better come out and do things, don't hold on to the dead rules of your family, aren't the rules just used to break for people? Gao Zhong didn't care about persuading Qian Jichen, this is because the Qian family has rules that they are not allowed to be an official in politics.

"Besides, this is not the Great Song Dynasty or Western Xia, this is just the princess's private territory." Gao Pet persuaded hard.

"I see you're too busy, I'll help you for a few days, I still have to ask the old man, but you have to tell me what to do, see if I can do it."

"It's not much, the administration of the entire Huining County, the logistics of the army, I asked the princess to give you a general manager, you know, she will only stamp, you help me take care of the pass, the troops will be pulled out to fight in two days, I don't worry about the others."

"It's fine, but you'll have to give me a few people." Qian Jichen didn't bring anyone with him, and a few errands outside couldn't be of much use. In a few days, if Xihe Road is occupied, it will be managed by many people.

"Now I will see for yourself what the Deng family brothers gave you, the Gao family's logistics and technicians, anyway, those people will also be handed over to you. In addition, the original local officials can also use it if they can use it. ”

Back in the room, the princess somehow became obsessed with mathematics in the past two days, had a hot fight with Deng Yu, and was solving the problem of chickens and rabbits in the same cage with Deng Yu. Maybe it's because Gao Pet has been too busy to spend time with her in the past two days. Seeing that it was rare for Gao Pet to return to the room during the day, Deng Yu left immediately and let the newlyweds speak. Seeing Deng Yu go out, she immediately came up and hugged Gao Pet:

"Husband, I really miss you."

"Me too. Sometimes I desert when I do things. ”

"Really?"

"How could I lie to you? When a bunch of guests are coming, shall we accompany them to dinner? ”

"No, I'm going to eat with the two of you."

"Very important guests, we must meet."

"Who are they, who want us to meet them and eat with them?" The princess was very curious, and it was just a matter of eating with Qian Jichen and them by chance.

"It was the leader or representative of some rebels and sand thieves in Western Xia, and they were all from our Great Song Dynasty."

The princess knew that these were people from the old Song Dynasty, and she was a little surprised.

"These are people who have always been against us in Western Xia, how dare they go to the County Princess's Mansion?"

"I invited it. I would like to persuade them not to oppose Western Xia and to come to our territory as a people. There are many benefits to this. When they came to us, didn't your father have so many sand thieves and bandits, and there was a shortage of labor in our territory, but they were also very good labor force, and many of them were literate and of high quality. Besides, they are all battle-hardened and have strong combat effectiveness, and they can fight with us to fight the Jin army and defend the territory. ”

"Will they come?"

"So, it's up to our princesses, if the princesses accompany them to dinner and drink to them, can they not be moved?"

In the evening, Gao Zhong set up a few tables of wine, and the supervisors above the Flying Tiger Army came, as well as a few people around Gao Chong, and the princess was naturally accompanied.

At the banquet, Gao Pet took the princess to toast everyone table by table. The Song Dynasty and the Xia Dynasty did not have this kind of etiquette, and it was impossible for a princess to do so, although Gao Zhong had done a lot of work for the princess in private for this matter, but Xi'er said a few days ago that the princess was becoming more and more at the will of the horse, and Gao Zhong said 100 times, 101 times would not refuse, and the princess was not saved.

It was an accident for the people below, and they all dared not miss their eyes. The eldest young master (horse) and the princess came down to toast themselves like this? This is something that would never have been dreamed, and with such respect for themselves, everyone has more and more respect for this young couple.
