If the general state officials and generals of the imperial army are state administrative personnel who feed off the finances of the Ministry of Revenue, then the heroes of the Tiandihui are self-financing business establishments. Although there is no appropriation from superiors, they can still be regarded as members of the imperial court.
, this was originally Liu Ziguang's trick to fool them, but these official fans were very interested. They found several local old scholars who were idle at home and carefully studied their specific professional titles.
Since Liu Ziguang only mentioned two titles, the guardian equivalent to the general soldier and the hall leader equivalent to the general, the rest of the official positions can only rely on everyone's performance. After everyone's discussion, they unanimously agreed that Tiandihui would be a national gang.
, and the chief rudder is Marquis Zhenwu, who is a member of the imperial court, so the level of their unit should be similar to that of the province. Since it is a provincial and ministerial-level unit, the official titles of everyone must also keep up with the situation, so a group of people and the imperial court
The internal structure of the gang linked to grades was quickly released. Basically, in accordance with the guiding spirit of Liu Ziguang's small courtyard speech, everyone made further refinements. The positions of protector, deputy hall leader, incense master, white paper fan, red stick, and deputy generals, Qianhu
, even magistrates and county magistrates are equated, such as the fifth-rank deputy hall master, the seventh-rank incense master, the eighth-rank white paper fan, etc. The official uniform is consistent with the cultural relic official uniform of the Ming Dynasty, with only slight improvements in the supplements.
show the difference.
When these drafts were reported to Liu Ziguang, he just smiled and agreed with a stroke of his pen. I am afraid that Liu Ziguang is the only one who can create the largest gang in the Jianghu under the jurisdiction of the imperial court since ancient times. This is good, it is equivalent to controlling the society.
Unstable factors reduce the possibility of common people rebelling. When he returns to the capital and mentions it to the emperor casually, Zhu Youxiao will probably not object. At most, he will laugh it off. As for the grades and official uniforms required by the heroes, he also fully agrees, isn't it?
Are there official uniforms? Later generations of agricultural machinery supervision, urban management and law enforcement, animal quarantine, health industry and commerce, and price and quality inspection all have uniforms. In the final analysis, it is still the Chinese people’s thousands of years of official-oriented thinking that is at work. This is the weakness of the heroes.
Let them wear official boots and gauze hats and they can help the court obediently. Why not?
In addition to these martial arts bosses who are eager to become officials, there are also some juniors who are new to the world and are determined to join the army and make contributions. Liu Ziguang is naturally satisfied with them one by one. However, those who enter the red shirt regiment must go through strict political review, and can only
Start with new recruits.
There is still a group of people who need to be resettled, that is, the prisoner death squads represented by Bai Xiaoshan who went to the Manchu-ruled areas to engage in sabotage activities. After this group of people were dispersed, only 30% returned safely. The rest were either captured by the Manchu and Qing officials or were caught halfway.
After slipping away, the remaining people were naturally loyal and capable elites. Liu Ziguang canceled their prisoner status as agreed and rewarded them according to their merits. These people were organized into a battalion specialized in fighting behind enemy lines, led by Bai Xiaoshan
After taking up the post of commander, Bai Xiaoshan put on his brand-new official boots and jersey. He was so excited that he could not speak. Liu Ziguang was the most considerate and wrote a warrant without waiting for him to ask, asking him to take thirty of his subordinates back to his hometown to find him.
The county magistrate settled accounts and brought my mother to live in Qingdao. After all, Bai Xiaoshan can be regarded as a member of the Red Shirt Regiment. Can my people be bullied casually? Liu Ziguang is really smart at this move. After Bai Xiaoshan received the order
She lay on the ground and kowtowed to him three times. The floor tiles were all broken, and her forehead was red. As the saying goes, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Bai Xiaoshan has been in unjust prison for ten years, and now he can finally go home to take revenge, and it's
Wearing official uniforms to take revenge openly and openly, this kind of joy and gratitude is difficult for ordinary people to understand.
"Xiaoshan's life, Xiaoshan's life in the next life, and the lives of my descendants, all belong to adults!" Bai Xiaoshan said this. The inmates beside him discovered that the prisoner who had never shed tears after many times of beating and torture was known as the prison's No. 1 prisoner.
Bai Xiaoshan, a tough guy, burst into tears at this moment...
Although there is no large-scale machinery, the city of Qingdao has begun to take shape thanks to the work of tens of millions of people. Liu Ziguang specially ordered two sets of beer production lines from the Song Dynasty in Nanyang. One is used to produce Tsingtao brand beer, and the other is slightly smaller.
After modification, it was used to produce sparkling plum juice, but this drink has been officially named "Cola" by him.
The current tastes of the Chinese people are not accustomed to beer. After tasting it, everyone called this kind of beer Ma Drun. No one wanted to drink it, but they were all very interested in Coke. It was sold out every day as soon as it was produced.
People are proud to have a few bottles of Coke at home. When guests come, they no longer drink alcohol or tea, but use Coke instead. This trend has led to the rapid emergence of an emerging industry in Qingdao - those who collect empty Coke bottles and walk around every day.
People in the streets and alleys shout with a Jiaodong accent: "Bring the Coke bottles to sell." This is also a unique sight on the streets of Qingdao.
According to information from Nanjing, Dai Yi was afraid that Liu Ziguang would be unfavorable to him, so he stayed in Nanjing for a long time and did not dare to leave. Finally, Wei Zhongxian asked for an imperial edict and a Shangfang sword for him, and then he set off for Qingdao.
My brother-in-law is good at everything, but he has a soft ear. Liu Ziguang said to Li Yan that in order to check and balance the general, he actually gave the eunuch an imperial edict and a sword to the monk. This is equivalent to completely taking away the military power. It is said that since ancient times, the emperor
It is natural to trust the eunuch, because the eunuch has no descendants, so he has no motive to usurp the throne. Moreover, he lives in the palace and is a slave of the royal family. He is psychologically close to the emperor. Of course, this does not mean that Zhu Youxiao has begun to distrust his brother-in-law.
, after all, the policy of eunuchs and supervisors of the army has existed since ancient times, and it is a very normal thing.
"Sir, please rest assured. With such a humble position, I will never let that thief Dai Yi get any military power." Li Yan assured Liu Ziguang, and Liu Ziguang waved his hand: "This eunuch is a famous person in Dongchang, and now there is Shang Fang.
Baojian, you can't move him, so I'll do it. At least knock down his arrogance and let him know what kind of territory Qingdao is."
The Beiyang Navy based in Qingdao is named the Beiyang Navy because it corresponds to the Nanyang Navy. It is responsible for water security north of Shanghai. The Manchu, Goryeo, and Japanese countries are all under its military threat. It is a force for
For the large-scale integrated water force to be built for the future maritime strategy, the navy is no better than the army, which can capture thousands of civilians and kill the enemy with a sword. Instead, it requires long-term training and running-in to form combat effectiveness. Liu Ziguang is facing President Qian.
When the above officer spoke, he once said: One month for infantry, one year for cavalry, and ten years for navy. This means that one month is enough to train an infantry that can go into battle, and it takes one year to train a qualified cavalry.
, it will take at least ten years or even longer to train an elite navy capable of crossing the ocean. This is a matter of continuation of tradition. Only the efforts of several generations can create the maritime spirit of the Chinese people. Of course, these deep-level things are for
They don't even understand, they just know that they have to train hard.
Steam engines from Qishuyan Machinery Factory, steering wheels and rigging from Wuchang Shipyard, high-quality armor plates from Liguo Iron Works, artillery and missiles from Nanjing Ordnance Research Institute, fine teak from Taiwan, and canvas from Songjiang were all brought together to the Jiangnan Shipyard in Shanghai.
, produced one after another new iron-armored gunboats, loaded with bituminous coal from Huainan, and led by instructors in snow-white uniforms from the brigade of the Song Dynasty Navy, they sailed to Qingdao and Liugong Island, and a large number of people from South Zhili, Zhejiang
, all the fishermen along the coast of Jiaodong were recruited into the army, put on blue jerseys, came here in military boats, and sweated like rain every day, training to sail boats and fire cannons.
There are also a large number of young men who are not suitable to be sailors who have become navy Bu Yong, wearing blue and white Songjiang cotton jackets, wearing bare helmets without red tassels, and holding brand-new muskets with long bayonets.
, practicing formation, shooting, and stabbing on the campus every day.
There are also dozens of airships, large and small, parked in a flat area of land designated as an airport south of Jimo and north of Qingdao. Soldiers who have been strictly screened, have good physical fitness, and have a certain cultural foundation are brought here to learn to fly.
, their monthly food standard is five taels of silver, with meat, eggs, milk, vegetables, melons and fruits. The allowance is even more generous. Ordinary pilots have a monthly salary of eighty taels of silver. This unit is affiliated to the Beiyang Navy.
The Flying Team, if the Navy is a giant, then the Flying Team is his most powerful right fist. The elimination rate of pilots is very high. In the end, only one out of ten people can wear the golden Eagle flight badge, and the others do not need it.
He returned to the infantry and became an airborne soldier. He was equipped with a carbine-type short-fire gun, grenades, daggers, an anti-collision leather helmet, and thick-soled leather boots. His mental state and self-feeling were much better than those of the infantry soldiers of the Navy.
The only regret is that they can only train in a closed place called "Liuting" and cannot go to Qingdao and Jimo to play.
On Liugong Island in Weihai, a secret submarine department is stationed, equipped with two domestically produced "Ming" class submarines and a "Song" class submarine imported from the Song Dynasty. The base is strictly guarded and no outsiders are allowed to approach.
, the selection of submariners is no less than that of pilots, and the standard of food is the same five taels of silver. These people are Liu Ziguang's treasured eggs, and the capital for future dominance. All additional expenditures come from Marshal Liu's private purse. In this regard
The instructor in charge of political work in the army talks for a minute every day before eating, asking the soldiers to think carefully about whether they can eat such fatty braised pork and send dozens of taels of silver to their families every month.
Whose blessing is it, and who should I thank?
Although the name of the Beiyang Navy is just the Navy, it has powerful combat capabilities in the air, on the water, under the water, on land, and even behind enemy lines. Whether it is a boat division officer, a navy infantry warrior, a flying team, or a cavalry team,
The members of the submarine formation are all deeply proud of their identity and the group they belong to. Such a super-modern army actually allows a corrupt eunuch to be the equivalent of second in command.
He is the supervisor of the army, who can be convinced?
