The fifth day of the fifth month of May.

On this day, the scorching sun was in the sky, and it was extremely hot inside and outside Wangjiazhuang, except for the young and strong military households who worked hard in the fields, there were no more people inside and outside Wangjiazhuang, and the rest of the military households and ordinary people were all hiding at home to escape the heat.

Suddenly, several generals wearing the uniforms of the Great Red Army rode into Wangjiazhuang Fort, and the first person was Chen Xun, the commander of Dapan Fort, followed by Wang Yue, the small flag officer.

Behind the two of them, Shen Tuo, the chief of the Huangshan pier, Zhang Yi, the chief of the Shagou pier, and Wang Bo, the chief of the wind volcano pier, also rode horses to accompany them, and several of them were wearing the big red army uniforms, wearing the waist of the chief flag officer or the small flag officer's waist card, and there were blades hanging on the saddle, and the horses were very powerful in the streets and alleys.

Several people received a notice sent by Liu Yan, asking them to rush to the Wangjiazhuang Baihu official hall today to discuss matters, and they happened to meet outside the fort, so they rode in together.

"This damn weather, it's only the beginning of May, it's so hot, it's fucking hot!"

Wang Bo shouted and cursed, his military uniform was soaked, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead and neck, as did the rest of the people.

But a few people still did not take off their clothes, not even the mouth was untied, this is the requirement in the "Infantry Drill Code", whether it is a general or an ordinary soldier, Wangjiazhuang Dunjun must pay attention to appearance, no one is allowed to go shirtless, or do not wear military uniforms and armor correctly, once found, will be punished accordingly.

At this time, Wang Bo shouted and scolded, Chen Xun said with a smile: "You are content, I have heard that you are very comfortable in the wind volcano pier, there is wine and meat every day, if it weren't for the hard work of daily practice, I think you would be fat and fat!" ”

The rest of the people laughed, and then looked at Wang Bo with interest, as if to see if Wang Bo had really gained weight.

"Haha, what's the matter, my military salary is not enough to eat and drink, and I still have to save money to marry a daughter-in-law!"

Zhang Yi on the side said with a smile: "Do you still want to marry a daughter-in-law?" I see that you don't move at all, and you don't look elegant, it's okay to marry a peasant woman, I'm afraid you can't marry other women. ”33

Everyone laughed, but Wang Bo screamed strangely, and rode his horse to chase Zhang Yi and make trouble.

Just when everyone was laughing, they had unconsciously rode their horses to the door of the Hundred Household Official Hall.

At this time, the chief flag officer Xu Ming and Miao Shao knew that everyone was almost there, and they had been waiting here for a while.

Since Liu Yan's promotion, everyone has gathered less and left more, at this time, everyone has not seen each other for a long time, so naturally it is indispensable to reminisce about the past, and they greeted each other for a while at the door of the Baihu official hall, and then everyone saw Yue Ming, the chief flag officer, walking out of the door.

"Hehe, everyone, everyone, don't be lively here, the captain is already waiting inside, let's go talk about business first. Tonight, the master of the management team has prepared good wine and good food, let's have a good night for a long time, and we will have a drunk rest! ”

Now Yue Ming, the chief flag officer, is in charge of the allocation of money, food and materials for the hundred households in Wangjiazhuang, for everyone, this is the God of Wealth, so everyone gives Yue Ming a face, and they have entered the official hall of the hundred households with laughter.

In the main hall, Liu Yan sat on the top in a hundred official uniforms, looked at the crowd rushing in, and said with a smile: "Okay, everyone hasn't seen each other for a long time, and today is finally together." ”

Everyone laughed, Chen Xun was even more excited and wanted to cry, hugged his fists and said: "Adults have lost weight, this time is too hard, you must pay attention to your body!" ”

Liu Yan waved his hand and said with a smile: "I know, it's just that we have a lot of affairs in hundreds of households, and I am also lacking in skills." ”

Wang Yue was even more exaggerated, trembling and said: "My lord is dedicated to the country, he is really a model for us." We are sure that adults must cherish their own bodies for the sake of national affairs, and cannot ......."

Chen Xun on the side stared blankly, slapped Wang Yue's head, and said, "Okay, okay, you're a little too much." ”

The crowd burst into laughter again.

Liu Yan also couldn't stop laughing, and finally stopped it, so he beckoned everyone to take a seat.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Liu Yan picked up a document from the table next to him, and then said to everyone: "This is the plan for the reorganization of each whistle that I drafted. ”

"Now there are a total of seven sentinels in my Wangjiazhuang 100 households, and the time is ripe for an additional level of establishment above the first level of sentinels."

Everyone was very excited when they heard this, looking at Liu Yan looking forward to it, and they all wondered in their hearts what position they could get in this new level of establishment.

Before Liu Yan opened this reorganization strategy, he added: "I originally planned to integrate the various posts, with three posts as one general, and the seven sentry and dun army of my Wangjiazhuang Baihu into two generals, and the cavalry post as an independent outpost. ”

"But I thought about it all night last night, and I felt that this was still a bit inappropriate, after all, if you want to lead a general dun army, at least a hundred household officials can do it. To be honest, now that you are the chief flag officer and the small flag officer, you are commanding more than 100 dun troops at a sentry, which is already a bit of a leap forward. ”

Everyone was a little disappointed when they heard this, and Liu Yan's meaning was already obvious, that is, this reorganization should be postponed.

Liu Yan looked at everyone's expressions and said, "However, this reorganization strategy will not be abolished, but will continue to be improved." I plan to wait until I get married, and then let the outposts take turns to go out to suppress the bandits and train the soldiers in battle. At that time, it will be a good time for you to accumulate military merits, and when the outposts are to be expanded into a general in the future, those with more military merits will be given priority to expand. ”

Only then did everyone rekindle their fighting spirit, and several people were secretly competing in their hearts, ready to show their skills in the battle against bandits in the near future, so as to accumulate more military merits for each other, which are all certificates for advancing to official positions in the future.

"Alright, the first thing is said and done, now I'll talk about the second thing."

At this time, Yue Ming, the chief flag officer, got up and walked to the side, took a flint bird gun, and handed it to Liu Yan with both hands.

"You see, this is the flintlock bird gun created by the Firearms Supervision Office, and now Director Tan has begun to make every effort to build this gun."

Everyone was overjoyed to see such a fine bird gun, especially Chen Xun, who was even more obsessed with bird guns, and was the first to rush up, holding this flint bird gun in his hand, constantly playing up and down, and the rest of the people also came around, pointing and watching.

Only Xu Ming and Miao Shao stood behind, both of them had seen it a few times in the past few days, and even saw with their own eyes the power of this flintlock bird shot, which was naturally not as novel as Chen Xun, Wang Bo, Zhang Yi, Shen Tuo and others.

"Your Excellency, are you going to change my clothes?"

Liu Yan said with a smile and affirmation: "This is natural, now the bird guns of each outpost equipment are still hung with fire ropes, not only can they not fight normally in wind and rain, but the process of filling is also very long, in short, it is all kinds of inconvenience." And this flintlock bird gun is not only more powerful and faster, but also avoids all kinds of drawbacks of the arquebus, so it is natural that the whole army should be equipped. ”

Chen Xun laughed and said, "In that case, can we bring this flintlock bird back this time?" ”

"You want to be beautiful!"

Liu Yan scolded with a smile: "Although this change of clothes is also part of the reorganization of the various posts, I just informed you today." When you get back, you have to send someone to bring me the old arquebor guns that you have equipped, and those arquebus guns can be converted into flintlock guns. ”

Chen Xun said in surprise: "This is okay?" Are there really no problems with the quality of those flintlock bird guns that have been converted from arquebus guns? ”

Although only Chen Xun asked, the rest of the people also had the same expressions, and in the eyes of everyone, the modified flintlock bird gun was definitely not as good as the flintlock bird gun created.

Liu Yan naturally saw everyone's worries, and said: "You can put a hundred hearts on this point, whether it is an arquebus or a flintlock bird, the pipe and the charge are about the same, the only difference is the firing device, and there will not be much difference between power and quality." ”

Only then did everyone put their minds at ease, and Wang Yue said with a smile: "What my lord said is very true, with Director Tan presiding over the firearms supervision department, no matter what kind of bird gun it is, the quality will naturally not be bad." ”

Everyone looked blank when they heard this, although they were accustomed to Wang Yue's flattery, they would not let go of any opportunity to ridicule Wang Yue.

"Wang Xiaoqi is really good at talking, weren't you worried just now?"

"When it comes to the arquebus gun to be converted into a flint hair, Wang Xiaoqi is the first to frown."

Wang Yue was not annoyed when he saw this, first smiled, and then said loudly: "Of course I was worried just now, but with the explanation of the adult, I was convinced by the adult's words, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Everyone was ridiculed again, but Wang Yue smiled more and more brightly.

Liu Yan watched everyone gag, and laughed out loud.

After everyone laughed for a while, Chen Xun asked, "I don't know how the adult's marriage is prepared?" ”

When he was in Dapanbao before, Liu Yan's marriage was prepared by Chen Jiang's help, but now that Liu Yan is in Wangjiazhuang, Chen Jiang's is staying in Dapanbao to preside over the soap workshop, and the preparations for Liu Yan's marriage fell on Zhao Min.

Now Zhao Min is in charge of the clerical affairs inside and outside the 100 official halls, and at the same time helps Liu Yan prepare for a series of trivial matters for marrying, and he is basically so busy that he can't even eat.

At this time, when Chen Xun asked this, everyone also came to their senses and asked one after another.

Liu Yan said with a smile: "Don't worry about marrying, with Zhao in charge, there will be no problem." ”

Chen Xun said with a smile: "What my lord said is that Director Zhao is thoughtful and talented, so there will definitely be no problem." It's just that when the adults want to marry, do they all invite those people? ”

What Chen Xun asked was naturally the Shangguan that Liu Yan was preparing for the banquet, as well as some people with status.

Liu Yan had obviously thought about it, and said: "Those officials in the Qianqian Household Office of Xiahe Village must have to send invitations, as well as the Song inspection of the Ancient Town Inspection Division, these are all to be invited. ”

"In this way, isn't it even the Dai Baihu in the Qianhu House in Xiahe Village who is going to make a post?"

Zhang Yi said disapprerovingly: "What is that Dai Baihu, the adults naturally don't need to pay attention to it, just give a post to the defense lord, Lord Wang, and Lord Jia." ”

The rest of the people were also convinced.

But Liu Yan had a different idea, and said to everyone with a smile: "One more of him is not much, but one less of him, I have to receive one less silver!" ”

Everyone laughed, and Liu Yan immediately beckoned everyone and said, "Okay, now it's almost dark, let's go to the side hall to drink and catch up, and by the way, we can also determine the people to be invited to the banquet, and I can draw up a list for Director Zhao as soon as possible." ”

Some people died, but not completely......
