The Shun army's offensive was broken and it was no longer able to threaten the Chinese army.

Moreover, all the Shun Army's cavalry were annihilated, so the Huaxia Army could calmly send out scout horses to monitor the Shun Army. The entire battle situation with the Shangzhou Prefecture Army was already translucent to the Huaxia Army.

The battlefields in various parts of the city were quickly cleared. The east and west gates were attacked, and the west gate was defended. The Chinese army won a great victory!

Wan Jun held a post-war summary meeting in the county government hall, and Zhang Wuyang tallied up the results of the entire battle.

In this battle, 319 Chinese soldiers were killed, including deputy battalion commander Qin Lang.

However, the Chinese army killed nearly 2,000 enemies and captured 410 people, as well as 390 precious war horses!

"To achieve such a result in the battle against the army of the puppet Shangzhou Prefecture is a great victory!"

Zhang Wuyang's face was full of excitement, and he laughed excitedly with the generals.

Wan Jun listened and drew something on the paper. After a while, he raised his head and said, "To me, this battle was just a tragic victory. Most of the Shun army were civilian troops who fought with Li Zicheng on the move. They won the title of Shangzhou."

The name of the soldiers and horses of the imperial court is only a year or two old, but more than 300 brothers, including Qin Lang, are all carefully selected elites of our army, and now they have lost so many."

When the generals heard Tan Lang's name, they all stopped laughing and looked grave.

Wan Jun said to Wang Lihui, "The rocket launchers made a great contribution in this battle. If we had had muskets this time, many brothers might not have lost their lives."

Wang Lihui said, "I will definitely step up the production of firearms."

Wan Jun nodded and then said to the generals, "Now you also know some news. Li Zicheng was defeated by the Hu people in Shanhaiguan and retreated from Beijing to Shaanxi. Shanxi cannot hold it. How long can Guanzhong hold on? I guess it won't be long before Li Zicheng

It will be defeated, and we won’t have much time left.”

Zhang Wuyang said, "What do you mean, sir, do you want to fight against the barbarians?"

"Human!"

"Building slaves is not easy to fight."

One person said, "Now that the Hu people have entered Beijing, Wu Sangui's Liaodong Army, as well as Shanxi, Shandong has surrendered no less than a million soldiers and horses, and our army only has a few thousand. I'm afraid the strength gap is too big!"

Wan Jun said, "What you said is right, but the generals should not feel self-contempt. Li Zicheng is still resisting in the north. Before that, our army will have some time to fight with the Hu people, and we can prepare for the future war."

Prepare!"

Li Wenlong stood up and said, "The barbarians are no more powerful than the cavalry. We are surrounded by mountains. How can the barbarians fly over?"

Someone immediately said, "Liaodong is also full of mountains, and Shanhaiguan has mountains and seas. The Hu people haven't come here yet."

Li Wenlong said angrily, "That bitch and traitor Wu Sangui let her here."

Another person said, "The Ming Dynasty's millions of soldiers and horses can't stop the Hu people, why don't we run south too!"

Wan Jun slapped the table, "Li Youtian!"

Li Youtian stood up in excitement and looked at the army. The generals stopped talking and looked at the army quietly.

Wan Jun scolded, "Li Youtian, how the hell do you do your political education? These generals are so afraid of war and death!"

Immediately, Wan Jun turned around and cursed at everyone, "If you defeat the Shun army today, I want to be rewarded! However, some brothers are afraid of the barbarians and made remarks that disrupted the morale of the army. I want to punish you. I will punish you. You will all follow Li Youtian to educate you tomorrow."

, let’s discuss specifically what our army relied on to defeat the Shun army, and whether it can defeat the Hu people!”

"Li Youtian!"

Wan Jun slapped the table, and Li Youtian got excited again and said loudly, "Here!"

"Discuss tomorrow

If the discussion fails to produce a satisfactory result, we will continue the discussion without dinner at night. When the discussion comes to a conclusion, you can tell me!"

"Yes!" Li Youtian saluted.

He asked Li Youtian to sit down. Seeing that the generals were shocked, Wan Jun said again, "As I said just now, today the army defeated the Shun army. All the generals will be rewarded according to their merits. The generals must not be arrogant."

When everyone heard about the reward, they all listened quietly to what Wanjun said.

"The war is coming. Now the new army has been training for more than a month and has experienced another battle. It is already an excellent Chinese army. From now on, I have decided to mix the nine new battalions with the three old battalions and organize the twelve battalions into

Four regiments!”

"Zhang Wuyang!"

Zhang Wuyang responded, stood up and looked at Wan Jun.

Then Wan Jun named Li Wenlong, Chang Jian, Gui Dongliang, and He Chuyi, "Through this battle and the performance during this period, I decided to appoint Zhang Wuyang as the commander of the first regiment, and Li Wenlong as the second regiment."

The commanders of the regiments, Gui Dongliang is the commander of the third regiment, and He Chuyi is the commander of the fourth regiment! There are also lists of deputy commanders and regimental staff of each regiment, which I will give to you after I have considered them."

"All the commanders of the former combat units have been promoted to one level."

When the generals heard that they had been promoted to one level, their faces showed great excitement.

"Gui Dongliang!"

Gui Dongliang, who had already sat down after receiving the order, stood up again and looked at Wan Jun.

"You did a good job training the new army."

Gui Dongliang smiled and said, "Thank you sir, it's all your teachings!"

Wan Jun nodded, "However, the strength of our four regiments is still too small. Your third regiment will be temporarily taken over by Lu Dayong. You will be responsible for screening prisoners, recruiting refugees, and then expanding our army's strength!"

All the generals knew that once the army and horses expanded, all commanders at all levels could take further steps, and they all looked at Gui Dongliang happily.

Gui Dongliang took the order and sat down, and Wanjun listened to Zhao Boyuan's report on the summer harvest and grain collection. The logistical problems of the Chinese army came to an end for the time being.

However, the situation at Fushui Pass is not very optimistic. The number of hungry people coming from western Henan is increasing day by day.

After everything was arranged, the generals left in a hurry according to Wanjun's instructions.

Wanjun was about to leave when he saw a man sitting motionless at the end of the hall, looking straight at him.

Wan Jun looked at it and said, "Who are you? Why are you sitting still? Don't you know the time is urgent?"

The man stood up and gave a standard military salute, "Last General Cui Ziyi!"

Wan Jun was stunned for a moment. He remembered the name of Cui Ziyi, an arrogant and rebellious Taoist priest. However, Cui Ziyi, who used to be bookish, now has a fair face that is much darker and thinner.

Wan Jun remembered that when they first met, Cui Ziyi was a complete arrogant. The ancients were fond of arrogance, either a great talent who deliberately used arrogance to attract the attention of Mingjun, or a mediocre person who used arrogance to make himself look like a great talent.

Cui Ziyi's arrogance is much less, his whole person is mature and restrained, and he has more heroic spirit.

Wan Jun nodded and said, "You have changed a lot in a short period of time. What position do you hold in the army now?"

Cui Ziyi said, "Before coming here, I was the team officer of the 1st Platoon and 2nd Team of the 3rd Company of the 5th Battalion of the New Training. He was one of the three team officers specially assigned to participate in this battle due to his outstanding performance."

Wan Jun smiled and said, "Well done, your military exploits can directly promote you to company commander, but you have to work harder and reorganize the army. There are still many things to do, so go ahead!"

Cui Ziyi stood still, "Ziyi is here to say goodbye to you!"

Wan Jun asked curiously, "Farewell? Why?"

Cui Ziyi sighed, "I, Cui Ziyi, am a person seeking immortality. How can I be a layman seeking fame in vain? I am just a company commander. How can I take it to heart?"

After hearing this, Wan Jun walked over and pulled out two chairs for Cui Ziyi to sit down.

"Please tell me in detail."

Cui Ziyi didn't show any pretense, he sat down and told his story generously.

Cui Ziyi has been quite intelligent since he was a child. He was accepted as a disciple by Wu Zhenren of Qingfeng Temple in Yuntai Mountain. Meeting a master is the greatest blessing for those who seek Taoism. Wu Zhenren is exquisite in Taoism and Cui Ziyi has a high understanding. Cui Ziyi has been practicing with the master for ten consecutive years.

Learn the Tao.

But in the world, only Wang Yangming and Longchang enlightened, not Cui Ziyi and Qingfeng. The more eager we are to realize this, the further away it becomes.

One day, Master Wu called Cui Ziyi at midnight.

On Yuntai Mountain, outside Qingfeng Temple, Wu Zhenren finally told Cui Ziyi, "I have devoted myself to seeking the Tao for ten years, but I don't realize that the Tao is in my heart. Why be careful about destroying human desires? The breeze and the bright moon are all fate! The immortal fate between you and me as master and disciple has ended, tomorrow

Go down the mountain early in the morning!"

No matter how much Cui Ziyi begged, Wu Zhenren changed all his words, but told Cui Ziyi, "The path of cultivating the Tao is endless. You should go to the secular world and study the Taoism. When you become an immortal, you can renew your immortal fate with me."

Cui Ziyi couldn't calm down in his heart. After returning home, he was very tired of the chaos of the world, so he simply went out for a wander. Unexpectedly, he accidentally wandered into Fangcao Mountain and became a member of the Smiling Tiger Village.

After Cui Ziyi finished speaking, he said to Wan Jun, "I see that your Excellency is quite different. I thought I could show off my strategy, so I stayed for such a long time. Now that our fate is over, it's time to leave!"

Wan Jun heard this and secretly understood in his heart that Cui Ziyi's heart was still full of ordinary thoughts. He smiled and said, "Actually, the reason I want you to experience in the army these days is to make you familiar with military affairs so that you can serve me."

Give me advice. I knew from the first time I met you that you are no ordinary person. That’s fine! From today on, you follow me and be my adviser. If you can’t do it, it’s not too late to leave.”

Cui Ziyi said, "Who says I can't be a consultant? As long as Cui Ziyi wants to do it, there's nothing I can't do."

Wan Jun said, "What do you think?"

After hearing this, Cui Ziyi thought for a moment and said, "I am a Taoist and I have no intention of doing anything worldly. Since you are dedicated to serving the common people, I will stay by your side and make suggestions for you, which can be considered as doing some good deeds for the common people!"

Wan Jun said, "I wonder what Master Cui has to teach me?"

At this point, if you don't show some real talent and learning, you will really become a liar.

Cui Ziyi pondered for a while and said, "Your Majesty wants to compete with the Hu people, and his courage is admirable. However, now that the scale of the army continues to expand, and as in the past in the village, everything is not organized, it is already a bit inadequate!"

"Tell me more about it!"

"Just like the heroes who have accomplished great things in all walks of life, the founding of the country is the second, and the establishment of the government is the most basic thing."

"Establishing a government system?"

"For example, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty built walls, accumulated grain, and postponed the decision to become king. Although he postponed the title of king, he could not postpone the military, industrial, civilian, and criminal matters. He clearly established the functions and powers of each ministry and ruled.

All the people, strengthen their troops and horses, and the king's affairs can only be accomplished in a matter of seconds."

"If you only care about fame and don't pay attention to the establishment, then you are seeking your own destruction!"
