In a spacious and bright room in the farm, long tables made up of five or six square tables occupy most of the room, with some dried fruit candied fruits, teapots and tea bowls on it.

The bandit leaders sat in turn, looking at Zhang Zhiqing sitting in the main seat, with their eyes full of anticipation and excitement. These people were waiting for Zhang Zhiqing to announce their appointment!

At this time, Zhang Zhiqing stood up, cleared his throat and said, "Next, I will announce the appointment of the provincial government to you!"

"From now on, the provincial government has decided to establish the Lingnan Provincial Jingguo Army, and I will serve as the commander-in-chief of the Jingguo Army!"

"Han Wenkui and Mu Hongbin serve as deputy commander of the Yasukuni Army!"

"Han Wenxing served as the Major General Brigade Commander of the First Brigade of the Yasukuni Army, Mu Hongfeng served as the Major General Brigade Commander of the Second Brigade of the Yasukuni Army, and Xu Leiyong served as the Major General Brigade Commander of the Third Brigade..."

The first person to be called was a member of the five gentry families in Dongjiang City. These people paid for their money and paid for them. Zhang Zhiqing naturally wanted to give them to the high-ranking officials.

Although these generals, lieutenant generals, major generals are the names they added to themselves, they did not have permission from the capital.

But these people seemed to be too immersed in the role. They really felt that they had taken over the title of general, and they were all so excited!

Then, it was the bandits in Partridge Mountain, Blackhead Valley and other places!

"Appoint Zhou Yanchang as the colonel commander of the Sixth Brigade!"

"Appoint Yao Dajiang as the colonel brigade commander of the 7th Brigade, and Li Baishui as the colonel brigade commander of the 8th Brigade..."

As Zhang Zhiqing announced one by one, Zhou Yanchang and others also stepped forward one after another and took the letter of appointment stamped with the seal of the Jingguo Army from Zhang Zhiqing!

The seal stamped on it was only recently that Zhang Zhiqing hired someone to carve it. As for why he didn't use the provincial government's seal, it was because the seals of the provincial government were all stolen by Chu Liangyi and his troops.

No, it cannot be said that he robbed him. Chu Liangyi did not rob him. He just brought more than 500 Jiangbei soldiers to surround the provincial government.

Then, Zhang Zhiqing thought that the provincial government's seal was too expensive and it was not safe to place it in the provincial government, so he took the initiative to ask Chu Liangyi to keep it on his behalf.

Chu Liangyi did not force Zhang Zhiqing, he did it voluntarily!

The seal of the provincial government is now in the hands of Lin Hongfei, Jiangbei City. This is why Zhang Zhiqing is a puppet governor. He doesn’t even have a seal!

Everyone held the letter of appointment that they had just received, and their faces were full of smiles. Since ancient times, they wanted to become officials, kill people and set fire to be recruited.

Everyone was wandering in Lingnan Province and Shaanxi Province’s senior bandits. They killed such people and set off so many fires. Today they were finally recruited!

But even if you are happy, you still have a thorn in your heart, such as Zhou Yanchang, Yao Dajiang, and Li Baishui, who have more than a thousand people under your command.

The reason is simple. Thousands of brothers under his command were named a colonel brigade commander, and there were only a few hundred people under his command, and he was actually a colonel brigade commander.

Isn't this a fucking equal to me?

Do they have that qualification?

However, Zhou Yanchang and others did not have any attacks. This is not because they have a good temper. They mainly cause trouble on such occasions and are easily disgusted by Zhang Zhiqing.

Zhang Zhiqing has money and guns in his hands. He has promised that after recruiting the amnesty, he will give everyone military pay and guns.

For the sake of military pay and guns, Zhou Yanchang and others temporarily endured it.

At this time, the Yasukuni Army had not yet been reorganized, and cracks had appeared inside.

The official has been sealed off, and the next step is to eat and drink!

However, these bandit leaders are all old. Although there are jars of good wine in front of them, they just took a few simple sips.

Drunk in other people's territory is simply because I feel that I have lived for a long time.

After not having enough wine and eating, the bandits did not leave. They came this time not just for a letter of appointment.

These people are also the ones who don’t show off their eagles without seeing the rabbit. They want to hold a piece of broken paper to work hard, which is really underestimating them!

Zhang Zhiqing also understood what these people meant, and then took out part of the military pay and distributed it according to the number of people on each hill.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a part of the old guns purchased from the Zhensong Army and distributed them to the bandits.

The bandits finally showed a satisfied expression, and they immediately patted their chests and promised that as long as Zhang Zhiqing issued a military order, they would immediately come over with their subordinates and ask them to hit whoever they asked them to hit.

.

The bandits got the benefits and really chose to surrender to Zhang Zhiqing, and then they left the farm one after another and returned to their own village.

However, Zhang Zhiqing left Lang Kun alone in the Blackhead Valley. Lang Kun should be called the commander of the 9th Brigade of the Jingguo Army!

"Brig Commander Lang, I know you are from the army, unlike those local buns like Zhou Yanchang and Li Baizi, you understand military affairs!"

"So, I want to ask you to serve as Major General Chief of Staff of the Yasukuni Army, and you will continue to serve as the brigade commander of the Ninth Brigade."

"I wonder what you think?" Zhang Zhiqing looked at Lang Kun and said.

As early as the morning meeting, Zhang Zhiqing was very satisfied with Lang Kun and felt the intention of recruiting him.

Although Zhang Zhiqing was appointed commander of the Jingguo Army, he did not have a direct army. The soldiers from each brigade were either recruited by the gentry or bandits.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Zhiqing is a bare commander.

The reason why everyone is willing to listen to Zhang Zhiqing's orders is because he has received support from Zhang Dashang, and he feels that following Zhang Zhiqing has a promising future!

Therefore, Zhang Zhiqing planned to recruit Lang Kun under his command and become his own direct army!

Lang Kun naturally agreed in surprise. He used to look down on the bandits around him on weekdays, but now he has been recruited and is on an equal footing with them. This made Lang Kun very dissatisfied.

Now, Zhang Zhiqing actually took the initiative to promote himself, and Lang Kun is naturally very willing!

"I am thankful for the commander's promotion. I will go through fire and water in the future, and I will never refuse!" Lang Kun said with a confident look on his face.

Zhang Zhiqing nodded with satisfaction, and then asked his followers to lift the felt cloth beside him, revealing the military green wooden box below.

"Chief of Staff Lang, open it and take a look!" Zhang Zhiqing said with a smile.

Lang Kun lifted one of the wooden boxes, and what caught his eye were ten brand new rifles. Lang Kun couldn't help but pick up one and fiddle with it in his hand a few times, exclaiming:

"Good gun!"

"This is much better than the old guns I just got!"

At this time, Zhang Zhiqing smiled and said, "A good gun needs a good guy to use!"

"Chief Lang is from the army and is good at managing the army. Only when these new guns come into your hands can they truly play a role."

"If it were Zhou Yanchang and the others, no matter how good the gun was, they would not be able to shoot it!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhiqing looked at Lang Kun and said, "I will hand over this batch of new guns to Chief of Staff Lang. I hope you can improve the combat effectiveness of the Ninth Brigade and become the elite of our Jingguo Army!"

Lang Kun was very excited and immediately saluted and said, "Please rest assured, the commander, I must train a team of elite soldiers for the commander!"

Zhang Zhiqing wanted to obtain a direct army, while Lang Kun wanted to become an officer of the regular army and get rid of his identity as a bandit.
Chapter completed!
