Chapter 171
With the end of the conscription in Lu Province, Ding Dehu also arrived in Lu Province with more than 200 Cangshi children.
In addition to the original soldiers of the fourth company, Lin Hongfei has gathered a team of more than 900 people under his command.
Coupled with the subsequent recruitment of some clerks, cooks and other civilian and logistical personnel, the number of the entire company has reached 1000 people, which is already a regiment.
To put it bluntly, Lin Hongfei is a company commander on the surface, but actually lives the life of a regiment commander.
Seeing that Lin Hongfei had recruited so many people, Wei Wenqi, commander of the [-]th Brigade, was surprised:
"Why did you recruit so many people? I don't have so many weapons and military pay for you!"
Lin Hongfei laughed: "Don't worry, you'll still pay the military salary according to the establishment of a company, the brigade, and I will bear the extra by myself!"
When Wei Wenqi heard this, he nodded clearly: "That's right, I forgot that you are a rich man!"
At this time, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I was worried before, why the higher-ups would only transfer one company of you to garrison Jiangdu County."
"Now I understand that you are a company on the surface, but you are actually a regiment."
"This regiment's team is still holding on to guard Jiangdu County!"
As he said that, Wei Wenqi gave Lin Hongfei a newly received transfer order, which clearly stipulated that Lin Hongfei should leave Lu Province within three days and rush to Jiangdu County as quickly as possible.
"Three days?"
"Didn't the original transfer order just let me go within a month!" Lin Hongfei said in surprise.
Wei Wenqi explained: "I heard the wind, it seems that there is a movement in the immediate department, and the higher-ups are worried about something, so they asked you to leave as soon as possible."
Lin Hongfei had no choice but to start arranging the departure.
The recruits should have been trained for a period of time when they joined the army, but time was running out. The order to garrison had already come down, and Lin Hongfei had to go to Jiangdu County.
However, three days was enough for Lin Hongfei to issue weapons and equip the recruits.
Lin Hongfei signed a large number of ammunition accumulated over the years, and finally has enough room for use!
"800 brand new Hanyang-made rifles, hundreds of thousands of bullets, enough to fight several battles!"
"Hanyang is not enough, there are still 200 prototype guns - 1888 committee rifles!"
"If it doesn't work, I still have 300 Lee-Enfield rifles here, but unfortunately the bullets are not compatible with Hanyang."
"20 MP18 submachine guns as my guard weapons."
"Fifty Madsen LMGs. That's good squad automatic fire."
"10 Maxim heavy machine guns, designed to fight crowd tactics!"
"5 Stokes mortars, can't kill them..."
Soon, Lin Hongfei's team of more than a thousand people uniformly equipped with brand new weapons and equipment.
In addition to what they held in their hands, Lin Hongfei still had a lot in his system space, which was enough for the soldiers to replace their firearms and replenish their ammunition.
A large number of recruits have been recruited, which naturally requires grassroots officers to manage and command.
Therefore, a large number of veterans of the Fourth Company have been promoted.
Externally, Lin Hongfei still claimed to be the commander of the fourth company, but internally, he called himself the Eleventh Brigade Independent Regiment!
Therefore, Guo Lang, the deputy company commander, was naturally promoted to the deputy regiment commander, and the three platoon leaders each served as the battalion commander. The original squad leader was promoted to a series of positions such as battalion deputy, company commander, and deputy company commander.
Although the name of Lin Hongfei's independent group is not recognized by anyone, but he coaxed himself to play, but the 1000 people are real!
When you get famous, it's easy to get a division number, let alone an official independent regiment number!
Since there was no time for recruit training, Lin Hongfei simply asked the recruits to train in the morning and hurry in the afternoon and evening.
In this way, although the speed of the journey was a little slower, there was no delay.
Originally, when Lin Hongfei and his party were about to leave, an old acquaintance, Wu Yongquan, came to the camp.
He just rushed back from the field last night, and came to look for Lin Hongfei early in the morning!
"What?"
"You don't go to Uncle Ziyu's place to be the company commander of the guard, but you want to come to the fourth company to be the deputy company commander. Follow me to Jiangdu County. You are right in your head!"
Because the relationship with Wu Yongquan was so good, Lin Hongfei was very rude when talking to him.
Wu Yongquan also scolded back unceremoniously: "You are the only one with a brain problem!"
"If it wasn't for my sister, I would go to Jiangdu County with you!"
"Come on, what does this have to do with Yushu!"
"Nonsense, with your pretty face, you are in front of the county magistrate, you have a sweet mouth, and you can coax women..."
Seeing something wrong with Lin Hongfei's eyes, Wu Yongquan directly revealed the old truth:
"Don't look at me with that kind of look. How did you coax the top card of Zuihualou into bed, and you didn't even pay for it? I saw it all!"
"If this makes you go to Jiangdu County alone, within half a year, you will have a whole platoon of concubines!"
Lin Hongfei said speechlessly: "Stop talking nonsense, am I that kind of person? Ever since I married Yushu, I have never been to that kind of romantic place!"
"I don't care, anyway, I have already resigned as the company commander of the guard, and I will go to Jiangdu County with you!" Wu Yongquan said with a rascal face.
"All right, all right, come with me, I happen to be short of a urinal holder, and from now on you will be the head of my urinal!"
"Go to your uncle!"
The two immediately lost each other!
Although Lin Hongfei and Wu Yongquan didn't say anything serious, Lin Hongfei knew in his heart that Wu Yongquan was worried that he would go to Jiangdu County, an unfamiliar place where he was born, and he would inevitably need human assistance.
That's why he resigned from his promising job and came to follow him to Jiangdu County, where the future was unknown.
To be honest, Lin Hongfei was quite sure of whether he could gain a foothold in Jiangdu County.
But outsiders don't know their inside story, so they will naturally have a lot of doubts and concerns.
Even Qian Minghe, who personally promoted him to work in Jiangdu County, sent four long letters one after another these days, in which he described all possible problems and solutions to him in detail.
Therefore, Wu Yongquan was able to do this, firstly because the two were relatives, and secondly because of the loyalty in the heart of this man from Lu Province.
Wu Yongquan was indeed a little uneasy about his trip to Jiangdu County. After all, there were many cases of dragons crossing the river being killed by local snakes.
What's more, Lin Hongfei has a company of about 100 people, and it is still very difficult to gain a foothold in a county.
Therefore, he followed Lin Hongfei to Jiangdu County this time, with a feeling of 'the wind is rustling, Yi Shuihan, I will never return'.
But when he saw the fourth company with more than a thousand troops in front of him, he was completely stunned!
"This fucking company?" Wu Yongquan said in shock!
"It's a company!"
"It didn't turn out to be so many, but suddenly there were 1000 fewer people!" Lin Hongfei said jokingly.
"My nima..."
Wu Yongquan had a lot of words stuck in his throat, and finally he could only say: "I don't have to worry about this for you!"
"Hahaha!"
Lin Hongfei raised his head and laughed loudly, then patted Wu Yongquan's shoulder heavily and said:
"Okay, here we come!"
"From now on, you are the deputy head and chief of staff of our independent regiment."
"Except for me, the entire independent group belongs to you!"
"We brothers will go to Jiangdu County to fight the world together!"
Wu Yongquan also laughed loudly and said: "Okay, Longtan Tiger's Den, let's accompany you to break into him!"
