If Jian Liangzhi can help him narrate his merits, he may be able to earn the title of an active-duty officer when he is rewarded based on his merits. This will make his status as the officer of the patrol camp of Qingshan Town even more
There are no more flaws.
Jian Liangzhi, the leader of the senior doctor group, had no intention of chatting with Lin Ziran, Wang Jinquan and the others. After a few brief words, he led the people into the city.
As soon as they entered the city, they unceremoniously occupied the garrison. Wang Jinquan had no choice but to go to the city gate barracks and live with Lin Ziran and the others.
Not only did Jian Liangzhi enter the city, but his army also entered the city.
But what made Lin Ziran and Wang Jinquan a little relieved was that Jian Liangzhi had already told them.
His Seventh Regiment will not stay here long. They will just rest for one night and will set off to continue their journey north the next day. As for why they are going north, he did not say.
But you can guess that they must be fighting with the Guang'an rebels.
The seventh regiment has a large number of people. The first batch came with nearly a thousand people. Later, hundreds of people arrived near the evening. The total force has reached 1,500 people, which is larger than the permanent population of Qingshan Town.
There are too many!
So many people poured into the city, causing chaos, but this has nothing to do with Lin Ziran and Wang Jinquan. Now they are both hiding in the city gate barracks. If anything goes wrong, they will immediately leave the city gate.
Run away.
That night, Lin Ziran, Wang Jinquan and even the other young bandits were not feeling at ease. Even the new recruits knew that a large army was coming and were a little uneasy.
Just afraid of something unexpected happening!
Fortunately, the night passed peacefully.
The next morning, just as Lin Ziran got up and had breakfast, someone informed that Jian Liangzhi wanted to see him.
He was wondering why Jian Liangzhi wanted to see him, but Lin Ziran estimated that it was not because of his identity being exposed. Otherwise, instead of sending a soldier to report, a large group of officers and soldiers came over with guns.
When arriving at the governor's mansion, Lin Ziran saw that the officers and soldiers under Jian Liangzhi had already begun to pack their bags, obviously preparing to set off again.
Seeing this scene, Lin Ziran felt a little at ease.
The seventh regiment was indeed what Jian Liangzhi said. They only stayed in Qingshan Town for one night before performing military duties. Regardless of whether they went north to fight with the Guang'an rebels, for Lin Ziran, Wang Jinquan and others in Qingshan Town,
, but this is a good thing, a great thing.
Lin Ziran felt a little more at ease and his steps were much more brisk. After entering the front hall, he saw that Jian Liangzhi was already dressed in military uniform and seemed to be ready to set off.
Lin Ziran immediately stepped forward and said: "I'm here to pay my respects to you, sir!"
Strictly speaking, since Lin Ziran pretended to be the battalion commander of the Qingshan Town Patrol Battalion and also had a letter of appointment issued by the Qingshan Town Governor's Office, he could barely be considered an official. It was not wrong to call himself an official.
When Jian Liangzhi saw Lin Ziran coming in, he immediately said: "Well, come in!"
As soon as Lin Ziran came in, Jian Liangzhi continued to speak: "I asked you to come here this time to ask you to pay more attention to the defense of Qingshan Town in the future, and to guard against the Guang'an rebels in the future!"
"Since you and your men were able to stop the Guang'an rebels once, I know that you still have this ability, so you still need to be careful in the follow-up!"
"Besides, since you are in the private sector, it is not easy for you to go directly to the Privy Council to express your merits. In this way, when the time comes, you can say that you were ordered by me to defend the city. This is just and justified, and I can also express my merits for you."
To put it simply, Jian Liangzhi directly related his previous achievements in defending the city to himself.
Lin Ziran naturally had no problem with this. He could also guess that Jian Liangzhi wanted to benefit from it, but this was actually a good thing for him.
Without Jian Liangzhi, it would be difficult for him to report military merit. After all, his patrol camp is just a local private camp, and the county does not recognize them as regular troops.
If Jian Liangzhi can help him describe his merits, there will be many benefits.
Therefore, Lin Ziran said: "All of this is due to the good leadership of the adults, and only the lower officials can achieve some results. It is naturally appropriate to report it like this!"
"Okay!" Jian Liangzhi nodded slightly at Lin Ziran's suggestion.
After deciding on the matter, Jian Liangzhi continued: "In addition, our regiment will have a large number of baggage trains going north through Qingshan Town. You must protect the safety of these baggage trains!"
Jian Liangzhi's words made Lin Ziran feel strange.
It's not that Jian Liangzhi's instructions were due to his expectations. In fact, it was normal. He was told to do a good job in the defense of Qingshan Town and at the same time maintain the logistics supply line of the 7th Regiment. This was all expected.
However, if Jian Liangzhi knew that he, no, he was the one who had just led the convoy that robbed the officers and soldiers more than a month ago, I don’t know how he would feel!
Although it felt weird, Lin Ziran still wouldn't reveal anything, and immediately pretended to be sworn in and said: "Don't worry, Sir Jian, I will protect the safety of the baggage to the death!"
But as soon as he finished saying this, he looked embarrassed and said: "It's just that, sir, you also know that we are just a patrol camp in a town. We are not a regular army. There are not many people who don't say it, and these guns and cannons are not
Not much…”
Originally, Lin Ziran was going to continue talking, such as that the Guang'an rebels consumed a lot of ammunition during their attack, and that a lot of pension expenses were also used.
Anyway, no one has grabbed it now, no ammunition, no money, nothing!
But Jian Liangzhi is not a stupid person. As soon as Lin Ziran started to say a few words, he directly interrupted Lin Ziran and said: "In this case, I will leave you fifty guns and a batch of ammunition. In addition, I will wait for you."
I’ll give you fifty guns and ammunition when the baggage comes later!”
Hearing this, Lin Ziran couldn't help but look at Jian Liangzhi!
This is a refreshing person!
Before I even finished speaking, I had already agreed!
After saying this, Jian Liangzhi suddenly stared at Lin Ziran, and then said: "I gave you this gun, but there was a problem with the baggage team..."
Jian Liangzhi didn't finish his sentence, but everyone knew what it meant.
If there is a problem with the logistics supply of the Seventh Regiment on the ground in Qingshan Town, I am afraid that people will come directly with a large army and shoot him dead.
However, even so, Lin Ziran still felt that this business was done well!
He helped Jian Liangzhi maintain the logistics supply line, and he gave him firearms and ammunition, a fair and just transaction!
And when a large amount of logistical supplies cross the border in the future, it is estimated that we will be able to find a way to obtain another batch of firearms.
Now Lin Ziran was only thinking about army expansion and training. He was in urgent need of sources of ordnance. However, he didn't have any good channels before, but now he saw an opportunity.
He immediately said: "I will definitely not let the baggage train have any problems!"
But when he spoke, he had already made up his mind to take a bite from the baggage train that followed.
