Cloudless and sunny.
The cool breeze is very pleasant in early summer. It blows through the newly built military camp and spreads out the colorful flags. It looks colorful and festive.
Two thousand soldiers newly stationed in the military camp gathered on the school grounds today, their faces serious, but there was a little undetectable smile on their brows. Looking at the little old man who was high-spirited and impassioned on the high platform of the school field.
"Today, the country and the country are in danger due to foreign aggression. The whole country is of one heart and one mind. All the strength is gathered to hope that the soldiers will serve their lives and the generals will serve their lives! However, the powerful enemy is in the south. He is strong and strong, and his temperament is like an animal and bloodthirsty. We need to go all out to do this. Those who can be killed will be destroyed.
Therefore, the status of military industry in various places needs to be elevated, more troops need to be deployed, and more surrounding fortifications and checkpoints need to be installed. This can ensure that the output of ordnance is not endangered by emergencies.
Liu Jianyu, the commander-in-chief of the left army of the Yuzhong Military Mansion currently stationed in Yongchuan, is diligent in the garrison, thoughtful, and his tactics are in line with the current situation, and he has the ability to continue to maintain Yongchuan City. He was promoted to three generals and commanded the three armies of Yongchuan City.
The rest of the soldiers and generals are waiting with General Liu."
Bai Lang was also in the audience. Hearing the ups and downs of the people on the stage's announcements, he felt like he had been hit by a pie.
The name of the person on the stage is not important at all. What is important is his identity. He is a special envoy from the Yamen of the Ministry of War in Shunning, the capital of the country. And those words he said were the promotion orders announced by the Ministry of War Yamen! A promotion order benefiting more than 3,000 people in the Zuo Army! This includes Bai Lang, who has been recruited by Liu Jianyu and given an official position.
"What level am I at now? What official position am I in?" Bailang grabbed the principal beside him and asked. He has no idea about the rules of the army and the promotion and demotion of official positions. But I am also curious about how big an official I will be after my promotion.
The small school next to him was just a martial artist, how could he withstand the capture of a Qi practitioner like Bai Lang who was a fellow practitioner of martial arts? His shoulders were buckled, and half of his body felt inexplicably weak. While his face changed drastically, he quickly answered Bai Lang's question.
"Bai, Lieutenant General Bai! Let go! Now you have been promoted two levels with the general, surpassing the deputy general of the camp, and directly reaching the position of deputy general. But you also lead the troops yourself, so your actual position now should be the deputy general of the superior camp. "
"How many troops can you take?"
"The full force can command one thousand and five men and horses, including one hundred cavalry!"
"What do you mean by the word super?"
"This means that you can actually skip the rank of deputy general and directly serve as the commander-in-chief of an army. However, if you continue to serve as deputy general due to insufficient manpower and other reasons, you will be given priority when you are promoted next time. Many people with great merit in the army will be "super-grade". After all, no matter how great your merits are, you can’t be promoted endlessly, and there aren’t that many positions that can be vacated.”
The colonel's shoulders were released, and while he was still frightened, he also looked at Lieutenant General Bai with admiration, who had been ignored by the middle and lower ranks of the soldiers in the camp since he was recruited. This strength alone makes him worthy of being a deputy general. So the words should be as detailed as possible.
"Hiss!" Bai Lang gasped after hearing this. He didn't expect that he could become such a big official after being promoted two levels in a row.
A superlative deputy general! Can lead a thousand and five men at full strength! ? And if you have the opportunity, you can directly serve as the commander-in-chief of an army! In other words, as long as he is lucky enough, Bai Lang can now fill almost the same position as Liu Jianyu before? Of course, he knew that this was only a theoretical statement, and that in reality it was very unlikely that this would come true. It's a pity, otherwise I would have reached the sky in one fell swoop.
However, Bai Lang soon figured it out. He was not aiming to become an official. The beginning of everything was actually just to help myself, my family, friends, and subordinates find stability in this messy situation. Whether it is working as a swordsman in a knife studio, colluding with gangsters to open a black market dock, or being a double-dealer who actually controls the industrial park and secretly transfers weapons for personal gain, etc., it is all for this purpose.
Nowadays, the vague official position is like pie in the sky for Bailang. If you can take a bite, you will make a lot of money. There is no need to speculate about what is available and what is not.
The most practical thing that made Bailang's heart boil the most was the full leadership staff of 1,500 people. This means that he can legitimately nearly double his manpower!
Of course, what happens in the end depends on Liu Jianyu’s instructions. But adding some manpower is inevitable. Including Liu Jianyu's direct troops, they will definitely call in more troops.
Because the reason is very simple, the army is expanded into three armies, that is, from more than 3,000 people to 9,000 to nearly 10,000 people. If Liu Jianyu's immediate subordinates cannot account for the majority, it is likely that people will be dispatched to evade his actual power. In other words, it leaves behind hidden dangers that are difficult to convince the public.
When the military announced the end of the ceremony, Bailang was soon handed over to the Chinese army's tent for training. He stood in the corner and listened to Liu Jianyu making detailed arrangements one by one. His tone was smooth and there was almost no pause. It could be seen that Liu Jianyu had considered all this and handled it in a completely orderly manner.
Everyone else was fine. Bailang didn't even pay much attention to what he was listening to. The content was similar to what he had guessed before. Liu Jianyu wanted to expand his own troops and needed to choose them from the new barracks instead of directly asking the Ministry of War Yamen to transfer people to him. But there is a limit, that is, the maximum number of troops can be expanded to 6,000. A staff of more than 3,000 people was reserved for deployment by the Yamen of the Ministry of War.
However, it was not Bailang's turn to select people from the new military camp. That was the treatment of Liu Jianyu's direct descendants.
"White Waves."
"The general is here!" Bai Lang quickly stepped out of the queue, bowed and clasped his fists. Then he held his head high and held his chest high. Although his temperament did not have the iron-blooded and fortitude of the generals in the army, it had an evil spirit and viciousness, like a poisonous snake. People did not dare to underestimate him and at the same time felt that this person seemed to be out of tune with the army.
"You are in a special position. You have more than 500 people at your disposal to fill up to 800. I am willing to help you find people from the West City Sword Hall in Yongchuan City to make up for this part."
Bai Lang's brows jumped, and he secretly thought that Liu Jianyu was still worried about him. But we cannot remain silent at this time.
"Commander! My subordinates think this is inappropriate!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent frowned. The hot-tempered people had put their hands on the hilts of the knives at their waists, and the voices scolding Bailang for not knowing the rules immediately followed.
Liu Jianyu, on the other hand, waved his hand to stop the noise in the tent and said, "What's the reason?"
"Dongcheng Sword Hall and Xicheng Sword Hall have been killing each other for decades without any plan. The hatred has long been rooted and there is no possibility of getting along harmoniously. If 300 people from Xicheng Sword Hall are recruited, the fighting strength of the partial camp will definitely not increase. It is not unusual for them to surrender or even kill each other within the camp.
General, the people in the knife studio are unruly, don't like rules, and at the same time they hold grudges very much. Going crazy has no regard for the consequences. "
Liu Jianyu seemed to agree with Bailang's statement. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Since you don't want the manpower of the Xicheng Swordsmanship Hall, then I will transfer 300 people from the personal guard camp to you. How about that?"
Bailang: "."
