Chapter 130: Principles Can Occasionally Be Abandoned
It didn't take long for Lin Ziran to know that this person's name was Jian Liangyu, and he was Jian Liangzhi's younger brother.
There are three direct descendants of the second generation of the Jian family. The leader is Jian Liangzhi, the second in line is Jian Liangyu, and there is also Jian Liangshu, who is only 18 years old and is still studying in the military academy.
There is no doubt that among the second generation direct descendants of the Jian family, Jian Liangzhi is the leader and the only leader who currently holds a high position in the military and holds actual military power.
However, even Jian Liangzhi, the leader of the second generation of the Jian family, is only a junior within the Jian family.
The person in charge of the Jian family is Jian Minggang.
This man was already the number one general under Cheng Lingfeng when Cheng Lingfeng established himself on his own and occupied the two counties. Later, he successively served as the commander of the first army of the Luo'an Army, the chief of staff of the Luoan Army, and the director of the Military Affairs Department of Luoan County.
Although this man officially announced his retirement three years ago, his influence is still huge, and his disciples can be found in almost every corner of Luo An's army.
This Jianming Post is not only influential, he still controls the military power under his command, and can directly mobilize tens of thousands of troops when necessary.
Today, when Jian Liangyu came to Qingshan Town, he came to Qingshan Town to meet Lin Ziran on the instructions of his father.
Why are you meeting Lin Ziran?
Lin Ziran couldn't understand it at first, because after talking to this Jian Liangyu for a long time, he didn't say anything. Lin Ziran thought that this man was so idle that he came to Qingshan Town to chat with him.
But gradually he started to feel something was wrong.
Because this Jian Liangyu said, not only his elder brother Jian Liangzhi admires you, Lin Yingguan, but even my father deeply felt that Lin Yingguan was a talent after hearing about your deeds.
The Jian family has always appreciated talents.
This time, I came here to ask Lin Yingguan if he was interested in joining the regular army. He said that Luoan County is now facing powerful enemies from two counties. In critical moments, more talented people and troops are needed to protect the country and the people. At this time, it is also necessary to
This is the time for men of my generation to make contributions.
He also said that the Third Division has suffered a lot of losses now, and the strength of the temporary brigade of the Third Division has also been lost, and it continues to replenish new troops.
If you, Officer Lin, are interested, the Jian family can operate Lin Ziran's Qingshan Patrol Battalion as an infantry regiment of the regular army and directly integrate it into the temporary brigade of the Third Division under Jian Liangzhi.
There are some words that don't need to be said, but it is certain that Lin Ziran will instantly become the commander of a regular army infantry regiment. At least he will be a military lord of a middle-level doctor, and most likely a military lord of a high-ranking doctor.
Lin Ziran became more vigilant after hearing Jian Liangyu's words!
Everyone knew that the front line suffered heavy losses, but he, Lin Ziran, knew better that after losing more than half of the Third Division deep into the hinterland of Guang'an and retreating to Chongguang City for only a month, Cheng Lingfeng directly sent at least 8,000 reinforcements to Zhongqing Feng Haozhong. Now,
Although the Third Division is far from returning to its peak combat effectiveness, its strength has almost returned to 20,000.
As a regular army with a stable territory, Luo An's army also has a complete system for recruiting and training new soldiers. As long as they don't defeat them all at once, they will be able to recover in a few months.
Just like the Guang'an Army, they have lost at least 50,000 troops since last year, but now they are not holding on to the same stubbornness, and they have even bitten the Luo An Army.
In other words, there is no need for the Third Division to deploy militia groups like the Qingshan Patrol Battalion to strengthen the defense line. When the Third Division returned from a disastrous defeat two months ago, the superiors did not even think about deploying any local militia groups to join the battle on the front line.
Now that we have calmed down, we will no longer pay attention to local vigilante groups.
After all, the low combat effectiveness of local militia groups is obvious to all. Going to the front line to directly fight head-on and escorting baggage from the rear, and occasionally assisting the regular army in clearing out enemy raiding forces deep behind enemy lines, are two completely different things.
Transferring local militia groups to the front line will have no effect other than wasting food and ammunition. It may even become a weak point in the defense line and be exploited by the enemy.
The situation of the Qingshan Patrol Camp is a bit special, but the actual combat effectiveness of the Qingshan Patrol Camp is not known to outsiders. Even Lin Ziran himself has a hard time accurately judging it.
Just looking at the overall quality of the soldiers, they are actually at the lower-middle level, not even reaching the normal level of the regular army.
The comprehensive quality of soldiers requires long-term training and actual combat experience. As for these two, the soldiers in Qingshan Patrol Battalion are so-so. I can't say that they are too bad, but they certainly cannot be said to be high-ranking.
In addition, the equipment of the Qingshan Patrol Battalion is not bad, and the Mini rifle is a great weapon, and a series of new infantry tactics have been developed using the Mini rifle. This is the advantage of the Qingshan Patrol Battalion.
But even so, it is difficult for Lin Ziran to make a detailed judgment on the true combat effectiveness of Qingshan Patrol Camp.
He could only say that under certain circumstances, such as defensive operations, ambush operations, etc., his Qingshan Patrol Battalion should be capable of fighting.
But if it is an offensive operation and a head-on battle in the wild, then it is difficult to say.
This is true for the Qingshan Patrol Camp, not to mention other local militia groups.
This is also the reason why the regular army within Luo An's army has never deployed local militia groups to the front line to directly confront the enemy's regular army, even if they have used the militia groups as cannon fodder.
But now, this Jian Liangyu is saying that the Third Division lacks troops and can use his Qingshan Patrol Battalion as an infantry regiment of the regular army and integrate it into the temporary brigade of the Third Division.
This is not common sense!
If he were an ordinary battalion officer of a local militia and heard that he could transform himself into a regiment commander or a doctor in the regular army, he would definitely not be able to bear it.
There is a huge difference between a battalion officer of a local militia group and a regiment commander in the regular army!
Once you become a regular army, at least you don't have to worry about military expenses, equipment, etc., and this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is the difference in status and power.
A battalion officer of a local militia seems to be an officer, but in fact he is just a local nobody. But a high-ranking regimental commander in the main force of the regular army is a very important figure.
If you continue to become a Shaoqing, it will be even more difficult. Even if you are in a county, you will still be a capable person, just like Jian Liangzhi.
but!
Lin Ziran is no ordinary vigilante leader!
The designation of the local militia group Qingshan Patrol Camp was just a cover for him to expand the army and raise soldiers. Moreover, he did not spend much money on raising soldiers. He made money by selling kerosene to raise soldiers.
Therefore, he does not need to join the regular army to solve the problem of military expenditure and equipment.
Besides, if he leaves with his troops, what will happen to Qingshan Oil Company? He can guarantee that if he leaves with his troops, Qingshan Oil Company will be divided up.
In addition, and more importantly, Lin Ziran has always been the boss from the bandit leader to the militia leader, and he has never been the younger brother!
He is not prepared to be someone’s little brother either!
This is not in line with his principles!
unless……
The price offered by the Jian family is high enough!
If the price is high enough, Lin Ziran can occasionally abandon the principle.
However, if it is just the designation of a regular infantry regiment, some military title, etc., it will not impress Lin Ziran!
So, now Lin Ziran is looking forward to it!
He was particularly curious about what the Jian family wanted to do, why they wanted to win over him, and more importantly, what price they planned to pay to win over him?
When I was in the clinic in the afternoon, I was typing with one hand to prepare for updates. The patient in the next bed asked me what I was doing, and I explained that I was writing a book. After hearing this, the patient sighed: I still work even though I have a fever, it’s so awesome! Listen, it’s a rainy day.
I held it in for a long time and didn't know what to say. Finally I raised my head and smiled and said: It's okay, I just move my fingers and I'm not tired.
