At present, Zhou Baolin's team is temporarily called the du li regiment, but the expansion will have to wait for a while before it can be decided. It is not that Yuan Su must let Zhou Baolin perform the task of recruiting and surrendering first, or that he must recruit and recruit him after surrendering.
Those civilian armies were expanded into du li regiments just because at present, whether it is equipment, supplies, personnel appointments or even reporting to the Army Department, they need to go through a certain process. Since Zhou Baolin now accepts recruitment, he must naturally abide by the official army regulations.
of this system.
Zhou Baolin himself didn't actually have much objection. Yuan Su could guarantee that the two hundred people in his direct lineage would still be under his command, which was already showing great sincerity. As for Yuan Su's explanation of the procedure, even though he was still a little unhappy in his heart,
But he didn't show it at all, let alone any intention of disobeying.
These two hundred people did not have military uniforms for the time being and were still wearing the same outfit as when they were arrested.
Yuan Su asked the Third Brigade Military Medical Office to conduct a simple physical examination for everyone, and arranged for the Shangqiu Civil Affairs Office to rush to order two hundred sets of temporary military uniforms. The so-called temporary military uniforms were modeled after the central yang army's khaki-colored uniforms, but there were still some
There are some differences in details. This temporary military uniform is to give the two hundred civilian soldiers who accepted the surrender a makeover, allowing them to make a simple physical and mental change first. As for the formal military uniform, it will be after all procedures have been passed.
, issued or ordered to be issued by the War Department.
As for the weapons and equipment of the two hundred adapted soldiers, some of them were selected from the finest rifles previously captured by the civilian army, and the other part were selected from the Third Brigade.
Another day later, Yuan Su and Zhou Baolin came to the camp of the Second Cavalry Regiment. Those civilian army prisoners who had been detained and then reorganized were temporarily assigned to be stationed at the Second Cavalry Regiment. Today, they are officially stationed there.
Change the equipment and perform the ceremony.
After these former civilian army soldiers heard that Zhou Baolin accepted Yuan Su's recruitment and formed the Zhengfu Army, although some of them were not very willing, most of them chose to let nature take its course. In the past year,
, Zhou Baolin has always been very strict in leading his troops, so even though they had several successful battles, they did not get too many spoils after the war. In other words, everyone's life in the past year was not satisfactory and easy.
.
Now that I have changed my face and joined the Zhengfu Army, although it is very different from the original intention of rising up, at least I no longer have to wander around as before. What's more, joining the Zhengfu Army can be regarded as having an iron rice bowl. From now on, I will live in the official family and wear the official family.
, and save a lot of worries.
Two hundred soldiers marched side by side along the small playground. The brand-new and uniform temporary military uniforms showed full majesty. Whether it was from the pace of leaving the battlefield or the expressions on the soldiers' faces, it was difficult to tell that this was an army that had just arrived.
The people's army who accepted the recruitment. After all, in the eyes of many people, the people's army is just a bunch of mobs. They have not experienced formal training, not to mention lack of coordination and tactics in combat, and they may not even be able to do the most basic operations.
But I never expected that Zhou Baolin's army could achieve such an extent, which is really amazing. A civilian army that can carry out raids is already ten times or a hundred times stronger than many local armies.
"As the saying goes, you can see a leopard in a tube. The majesty of these two hundred or so people today is enough to prove that Brother Zhou, you are a man who can manage the army well." Standing on the makeshift review stage in the north of the small cathedral, Yuan Su said
He said with emotion.
"Thank you, Governor Yuan. I only learned a few superficial things from my humble position. The way to manage the army depends on military discipline. If military discipline is strict, the team will naturally have traces to follow. The execution of orders and prohibitions depends on the soldiers' hearts. Only when the soldiers' hearts are aligned can the top and bottom be consistent." Zhou Baolin disagreed.
He said arrogantly.
"Very good, this soldier can be used!" Yuan Su nodded in agreement and said.
When Yuan Su officially made the news of recruiting Zhou Baolin public, it immediately caused quite a stir in Henan Province and even among all classes of people who were concerned about the civil unrest in Henan. This stir was more like a wave of waves.
The development is the speed of influence that spreads from ten to ten, so that in the end it becomes more and more interesting.
It has been nearly a year and a half since the civil unrest in Henan. During most of this year and a half, the government and army were helpless.
It seems that the central government's effort to regain Shangqiu became a turning point in the entire situation, and therefore the name "Yuan Su" once again became active in the forefront of major political newspapers. The Shanhaiguan disaster relief incident two years ago has been reported in several consecutive news reports
, let the Chinese people realize that this young man Yuan Su is definitely not a playboy. Now it has been proved that Yuan Su is a capable and courageous rising star.
After Zhang Zhenfang read the telegram sent by Yuan Su, he finally just sighed helplessly. He did not mean to be angry with Yuan Su. During this period, he thought carefully about Yuan Su's previous shooting of eighteen regiment-level officers of the Seventeenth Division, which was also on the line.
He had to say it. He knew very well that if it weren't for what Yuan Su had done during this period, which successfully reversed the situation in Henan, he would have been unable to secure the position of governor of Henan.
More than a month has passed since the incident. As Yuan Su's elder, if he continues to stubbornly argue with a junior, he will not only appear to have no courage, but also appear to have no character. No matter what method or means Yuan Su uses, as long as
If the situation can be improved, other things can be completely ignored.
After taking a deep sigh, Zhang Zhenfang immediately drafted two telegrams, one of which was sent back to Shangqiu, informing Yuan Su that the Third Brigade could be stationed in Shangqiu in the future, and also stated that he had previously promised to support Shangqiu's post-war recovery.
Supplies will continue to be sent as scheduled. Another telegram is sent to bei jing. On the one hand, it is to express credit for Yuan Su's recruitment of Zhou Baolin. On the other hand, it is to hope that the president can continue to reuse Yuan Su to preside over the peace of Henan.
.
In the afternoon of the same day, Yuan Su received a call back from Zhang Zhenfang. Although Zhang Zhenfang did not say it clearly in the message, the mere statement that he was willing to continue supplying materials to support Shangqiu's post-war recovery could already show that he was ignoring past grudges. This is a good thing, and
Zhang Zhenfang's elimination of misunderstandings can be said to have removed the cover of the political dilemma he is currently facing, so that he will not be ostracized by the government and the local government as before.
In the evening, Yuan Su held a meeting at the Civil Affairs Office. Since he had Zhang Zhenfang's understanding and continued support, the Third Brigade should be more powerful and efficient in its next actions. He responded to the development of new policies issued by the Civil Affairs Office officials.
The direction is to restore Shangqiu to the level before the civil unrest before the end of the year, and at the same time build it into the largest commercial city in the Central Plains within two years.
As early as the first few days after regaining Shangqiu, Yuan Su was already negotiating with Suye Company and decided to import capital from the north to Shangqiu so that Suye Company's sphere of influence could be directly expanded to the Central Plains. And today's event
At the meeting, he formally decided to use the Civil Affairs Office as the background to invite local financiers and capitalists in Shangqiu to invest and prepare to establish the "Shangqiu Northern Development Bank". Together with the head office of the Northern Bank and Shanghai Northern Commercial Bank, the Shangqiu Northern Development Bank will form the northern banking system.
The iron triangle further unblocks the financial capital market from the north to the middle and then to the south.
As long as capital is introduced, Shangqiu's "leap-forward" development is just around the corner!
