Humeng County
Qin Jinhong, Song Tiance, Xu Zhiyong, and Bu Nanying were sitting in the headquarters.
"Tell me about it first." Qin Jinhong raised his head towards Xu Zhiyong.
Xu Zhiyong stood up with a piece of paper and said: "Commander, the number of our 14th regiment has reached more than 23,000 people in five battalions, including four infantry battalions and one armored battalion. The gun holding rate is hundred percent."
Qin Jinhong raised his eyebrows and said, "There are more than 23,000 people. How many people are there in just one month?"
"Yes, Captain, fortunately I have stopped recruiting now, otherwise we would have signed up even more."
"Now the people in the nine counties under our control love us very much. They all say that we are different from the soldiers in the past. In the past, when they saw the soldiers, they would hide away for fear of offending them. Now the people are very fond of us. We are not afraid at all.”
"That's very good. Our strength can only be used against the enemy. We must use gentle methods against the people, and we must not use violence!"
"Don't worry, captain, new recruits need to know this first when they join the army." Xu Zhiyong assured.
"That's good." Qin Jinhong nodded.
"Tiance, where are you?" Qin Jinhong then looked at Song Tiance.
"I have nothing to say here. Just like before, each of our four infantry battalions now has more than 4,000 people. Each battalion includes three infantry companies and an artillery company. The armored battalion has 3,800 people."
"The armored battalion must train more, they will be the main force in the battle in the future!"
"I understand, commander, now the soldiers have high fighting spirit and are proud to join the armored battalion."
"Commander, I have a suggestion. I plan to raise the salary of the armored battalion. This can also stimulate the motivation of the troops." Xu Zhiyong said next to him.
Qin Jinhong did not agree directly but looked at Song Tiance.
"I don't have a problem with the regiment commander. Soldiers in the armored force are currently training more physically than ordinary soldiers. They will also be the main force in future battles. It is reasonable to increase military pay."
Song Tiance expressed his opinion.
"I agree, do you have a plan for it?"
"I plan to give each of them two yuan per month." Xu Zhiyong said, holding out two fingers.
"Okay, you can do this."
"Okay." Xu Zhiyong nodded.
"We must always be prepared for war. I think the court will take some action during this time."
"Don't worry, Commander, the troops have not missed a single day of training during this period."
"very good."
"Southern Eagle."
"Captain." Bu Nanying stood up and responded.
"How organized is your intelligence service?"
"Now the seven counties can be said to be completely under our control. The imperial court has not yet completely infiltrated, but we have already mastered some things such as their basic troop configuration. What we have completely infiltrated is the imperial court's 38th Division. The movements of the Seventeenth Division.”
"Okay, you can expand as much as possible to the court."
"Yes, Captain."
"Do we have many spies in our army now?" Qin Jinhong asked.
"Seventeen of them have been monitored, but they don't seem to want to investigate us in depth. They are just doing routine detection."
"Then don't worry about it, as long as they don't touch our red line, the spies can't be stopped."
"Which force are these spies mainly from?"
"They are all from the imperial court, but the head of the regiment, I have discovered a problem. In the past few days, there have been more than a dozen spies in our nine counties. Originally there were only a few spies, but in the past few days, there have actually been seventeen, and it is not ruled out. There are others we haven’t found yet.”
"hehe……"
Qin Jinhong chuckled and said lightly: "This is the prelude to the storm."
"Captain, you mean the court is going to take action." Xu Zhiyong asked from the side.
"Just wait. We are still nominally part of the imperial army. Otherwise, the imperial court will send someone."
"Then what do we do?"
"Just wait and see what happens. Although we don't have as many people as the imperial court, we are not afraid of them if we really want to fight."
"Yes, Commander, the imperial court is so shoddy, I will kill them."
Song Tiance shouted from the side.
"Tiance, please prepare the second and fourth battalions to provide support at any time. We will be fighting soon."
"Yes, Captain."
"Okay, let's break up the meeting."
"Yes, leader." The three stood up and saluted before leaving.
After the three people left, Qin Jinhong walked to the map and looked at it.
He stared at the map with his eyes, and kept rehearsing the scenes of fighting with the court in his mind.
"Thirty-seventh Division, Thirty-eighth Division, Guanjiatun...Luojiabao..."
"It's easy to defend but difficult to attack. It's difficult to attack without heavy weapons."
"Niancun... this is a plain... just where the armored battalion can come in handy..."
"The combat effectiveness of the Thirty-Eighth Division is not worth mentioning. Only the Thirty-seventh Division is more effective."
"Once a war breaks out, it means a complete break with the imperial court!"
Qin Jinhong murmured while looking at the map.
He kept rehearsing combat situations in his mind.
"Then what if..." Qin Jinhong's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he suddenly discovered something.
…
After coming out of the headquarters, Qin Jinhong said to Sanxi at the door: "Let's go home."
After saying that, he got into the jeep at the door.
In this month, Qin Jinhong's reputation value continued to increase, so he drew more than a dozen prizes midway, and the rewards made Qin Jinhong very happy.
At this time, Sanxi was sitting in the driver's seat and said with a smile: "Captain, why do you want to come back?"
"Mom and dad haven't seen them since we came here. Go and see them." Qin Jinhong chuckled.
The last time Qin Jinhong came back was three years ago. When he was a battalion commander in the imperial court, he was fighting every day. He had no time to go home. What's more, his home was far away, in Qin Province, and his army was in Kyoto. around.
Since Qin Jinhong brought his family here, he found a house for them to live in.
The house is not too big, but it is not too small either. There is no problem for a dozen or so people.
In fact, there are not many people in his family. Counting him, there are six people in total, including his father, mother, two elder sisters and one younger sister. Counting the housekeeper and his mother's personal maid, there are only eight people in total.
After they arrived, Qin Jinhong specially arranged for several soldiers to guard them.
"Captain."
The two soldiers saluted and shouted after seeing Qin Jinhong.
Qin Jinhong also nodded in response.
Qin Jinhong opened the door and saw a fat middle-aged man sunbathing on a lounge chair in the yard.
This middle-aged man is Qin Jinhong’s father, Qin Yi.
At this time, Qin Yizheng was humming a ditty with his eyes closed.
"Master, why are you back?" At this time, a middle-aged man in blue clothes next to Qin Jinhong shouted excitedly.
"Uncle De." Qin Jinhong smiled and greeted the middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man is called Wang De, and he is the housekeeper of his family. He has been the housekeeper of his family since Qin Jinhong was born.
Same with his family.
"Xiaohong is back." Qin Yi stood up on the recliner and looked at Qin Jinhong.
"Dad is back."
Qin Yi walked over and patted Qin Jinhong on the shoulder: "Not bad, you are strong!"
"Have a good meal, hahaha" Qin Jinhong grinned.
His parents in this world were very kind to him. They not only spent a lot of money to send him to military school, but also respected his wishes.
So he still has a special feeling for them.
