Chapter 1637: If I could do it again

Views:

If I could do it again, I would die of curiosity and would not sleep with Huaer, at least I would not keep watch with her!

Early in the morning, before daybreak, the enchantress Ruonan, with a pair of dark circles under her eyes that could rival those of a national treasure, fled from the ear room with her legs clamped together and returned to the guest room where she was staying.

Not only were his eyes swollen and lifeless, his complexion was dull and lifeless, but there was also a pimple on his forehead...

After the evil woman Ruonan returned to her room and closed the door, she thought of what happened last night. Her dull face instantly turned red with shame and she wished she could bang her head against the pillow and die.

Last night was definitely the most difficult and terrifying night she had ever experienced in her life.

Last night, she was on night duty with Huaer. She only had time to hear a sentence from the inner room, "A filial son is born under the stick." Before she understood what was going on, everything happened so quickly. She was caught off guard, unprepared, and unable to defend herself. She was hurt both physically and mentally.

Chirp, chirp again, a sleepless night, every moment is as long as a year, this night is so hard to endure... ...

Early in the morning, Zhu Ping'an hurriedly had breakfast, and feeling refreshed, he rode back to the military camp with Liu Dadao and others.

Li Shu looked rosy and radiant, her pretty face like peach blossoms after rain. She stood at the door and waved goodbye.

"You two bastards..."

Ruonan, a seductive woman with dark circles and big bags under her eyes, was among the crowd of people seeing others off. She couldn't help gritting her teeth when she saw the two radiant people.

After Zhu Ping'an returned to the military camp with Liu Dadao and others, he gathered all the veterans and newly recruited conscripts.

On behalf of the Zhejiang Army, Zhu Ping'an once again welcomed the new recruits from Yiwu, and then began the highlight - the reorganization of the army.

Zhu Ping'an's idea of reorganizing the army was to "use the old to lead the new". He incorporated the new recruits from Yiwu into the old Zhejiang Army and used the old soldiers to lead the new recruits.

The Zhejiang Army had a total of more than 700 soldiers, with nine battalions, and the staffing was not full. The Supervisory Battalion led by Liu Mu had only one squadron of soldiers, the Guard Battalion led by Liu Dadao had only one sentry, the Cook Battalion led by Liu Daqiang and the Logistics Battalion led by Liu Dagang also had only one sentry, and the other five ordinary battalions had only one general (with only two sentries under their jurisdiction).

The Zhejiang Army's organization is seriously understaffed and can almost be described as an empty shell.

Now with these 1,200 new recruits from Yiwu, we can finally greatly fill up the Zhejiang Army's organization.

Of course, in reality, these 1,200 Yiwu recruits were not enough to complete the Zhejiang Army's establishment.

When the Zhejiang Army was formed, Zhu Ping'an set up nine battalions for long-term considerations. According to the planned organization, ten people form a squad, each squad has 10 people; four squads form a sentry, each sentry has 40 people; four sentries form a general, each general has 160 people; four generals form a battalion, each battalion has 640 people; the total number of Zhejiang Army battalions should be more than 5,600.

However, after adding 1,200 people, the Zhejiang Army's strength was greatly enhanced.

Zhu Ping'an arranged and distributed these 1,200 men in the following way: 30 men were assigned to Liu Mu's Supervisory Battalion to fill up one sentry. The Zhejiang Army now had nearly 2,000 men. Liu Mu's Supervisory Battalion originally had only one squad, which was not enough to undertake the important task of supervising and maintaining discipline for the entire army; 120 men were assigned to Liu Dadao's Personal Guard Battalion to fill up one general; 120 men were assigned to Liu Daqiang's Cook Camp and Liu Dagang's Logistics Battalion each to fill up one general, so that they could undertake the important task of cooking and logistics for the entire army; the remaining five ordinary battalions were each assigned 162 men, which means adding one general, from originally having one general under their jurisdiction to having two generals under their jurisdiction.

"Alright, according to the quota allocation, each battalion should start selecting soldiers. Select one team at a time, first come first served, no fighting allowed."

After Zhu Ping'an announced the allocation, he ordered each battalion to select soldiers.

The Yiwu recruits stood in teams of ten according to the formation they had trained on, waiting to be selected.

Liu Dadao and others who followed Zhu Ping'an to Yiwu to recruit soldiers took advantage. They had been with the Yiwu recruits all the way and had a deep understanding of them. They knew which team's recruits were the strongest overall and which team's recruits had the most potential. At the beginning of the recruitment, they had a clear goal and selected their favorite team early on.

"Damn Captain Liu, can you please show some mercy? You have picked all the good soldiers."

"You followed the adults to Yiwu to recruit soldiers, and you already know everything. If you select soldiers with us, it would be like cheating for you."

"That's enough, Dadao, please stop it. You have to give us some soup when you eat the meat. You only have one pick left. Wait until we finish picking, then you can choose."

When the other battalions saw that Liu Dadao and his men were quick, accurate and ruthless in picking out the best recruits, they couldn't help but cry out in envy and jealousy.

"Haha, the adults said first come first served, it's your fault that you are not flexible, who can you blame..."

Liu Dadao laughed and mocked them, but his movements were not affected at all. He quickly and accurately sent out a team of new recruits again. All of them were strong and had potential, which made the other battalion officers envious and jealous again.

"Okay, I'm sorry for you guys. I'll wait for you to pick the remaining three teams first, and the rest will be mine."

After Liu Dadao selected several teams of new recruits that he had seen on the road, he stopped with satisfaction and spoke in a tone like a wealthy landlord giving alms.

Anyway, the best teams of recruits have already been picked by me, and the quality of the other recruits is similar, and they are all good soldiers.

"Damn it, you must have picked all the ones you saw on the road and put them in the pot." The generals from the other camps gritted their teeth and said angrily.

"Oh, if you say so, then I'll continue to pick..." Liu Dadao shook his neck and chuckled.

"No, no, no, isn't it enough that we appreciate it?" Shen Tajiying waved his hands quickly and said with an apologetic smile.

"Haha, you guys, let me tell you, Yiwu people are born to be soldiers. This batch of Yiwu recruits are carefully selected by us and the adults, and each one is a good soldier among the good soldiers. You will have no problem choosing with your eyes closed."

Liu Dadao laughed and said to them, "He and Zhu Ping'an went to Yiwu to recruit soldiers, and they were very satisfied with this batch of new soldiers."

Soon, each battalion selected new recruits according to the quota, and the remaining three teams of new recruits were assigned to Liu Dadao's personal guard battalion.

After the recruits are assigned, the officers are selected.

This expansion of the Zhejiang Army added 1,200 people, which is equivalent to adding 120 squads, 30 sentries, and eight captains. That is to say, there were vacancies for 120 squad leaders, 30 sentry leaders, and eight captains.

The veterans of the Zhejiang Army had long been looking forward to the expansion of the Zhejiang Army, and they were looking forward to the arrival of new soldiers. Because the adults had said that after the expansion of the Zhejiang Army, the candidates for corporal and sentry leaders would be selected from among them first.

They have been training hard and seriously over the past few months and have been looking forward to this day.

Don't treat sergeants and sentry leaders as less than military officers. Sergeants and sentry leaders are in charge of ten or forty soldiers. Just imagining how impressive they are is enough, not to mention that after becoming a sergeant or sentry leader, their own treatment will also increase.
