    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 667

    "Our brothers can beat several times the regular army of the imperial court to pieces, can't they also deal with the gangsters who are like mobs?"

    After Chen Ziang heard the words of the deputy army commander Yuan Jie, he was also very puzzled, after all, it was beyond common sense.

    "General, these gangsters are not mobs." Yuan Jie corrected.

    "These gangsters have a complex composition, including soldiers from the Southern Army's collapse, private soldiers raised by wealthy families, local ruffians, rogue bandits, etc."

    After hearing Yuan Jie's explanation, Chen Ziang was also relieved. No wonder the gangsters are so rampant and their composition is so complicated.

    "The fighting power of these gangsters is not weak. Some of them gather in the mountains and forests, and some hide among the people in the villages and towns. At the same time, they secretly collude with the country gentry and wealthy families, and their power is huge."

    "Although our Qinghe army has occupied important towns, the vast rural areas are difficult to take care of due to insufficient troops, which gives them a wide range of activities."

    It is no longer easy for Yuan Jie to lead the twelfth and thirteenth banner groups to capture Jiangnan province.

    Conquering the Jiangnan province only required concentrating forces to destroy the enemy's vital forces. With the combat effectiveness of the Qinghe Army, it would be no problem to win more with less.

    However, if they want to occupy ten prefectures and dozens of counties in the Jiangnan Province, their strength is a bit stretched.

    If each prefecture stationed a banner battalion of 5,000 people, they would need ten banner battalions, not counting the provincial capital and the counties below.

    The troops of their two banner regiments are now scattered and stationed in various places, and it is not easy to hold important towns, let alone occupy roads and rural areas.

    After Chen Ziang heard Yuan Jie's explanation, he realized Yuan Jie's difficulties. It was normal for him to be attacked on the road.

    It is true that the Second Army of the Qinghe Army does not have many troops capable of fighting at present. The First Banner Regiment and the Ninth Banner Regiment are led by Deputy Army Chief Li Lang to guard the West Camp to ensure the stability of the northwest of Jiangbei Province.

    The Guards Banner Regiment is responsible for staying in Yunxi Mansion, where the base camp is located, and has already defended factories, iron mines and other important strategic facilities in various places.

    The newly formed Nineteenth Banner Regiment has not yet fully controlled the waters of the Dongjiang River, and cannot go ashore to fight.

    Although Chen Ziang had previously held a meeting to prepare new troops of five banner regiments, due to insufficient preparations in various aspects such as materials, food and weapons, only one new banner regiment has been recruited and is currently training in the recruit training camp.

    "General, what we are facing now is not just the problem of suppressing bandits. I have already received news that the main force of the southern army with more than 200,000 people has already pressed towards us." Yuan Jie said with a solemn expression.

    Chen Zi'ang and the others took advantage of the fact that the southern army and the rebel army Yang Hao were fighting in Yunshan and Dongjiang province, and they took advantage of the vacancy to occupy the Jiangnan province.

    ? How could someone else be allowed to snore and sleep on the side of the couch, Luo Mingyuan, the general of the Southern Army Zhennan, was naturally unwilling to reconcile the Jiangnan Province to being taken away by the Qinghe Army.

    Therefore, after he cleared up the troops of the rebel army Yang Hao, he immediately led a mighty army to the Jiangnan province, preparing to take back the fertile land of the Jiangnan province.

    Chen Ziang suddenly discovered that he had seized the Jiangnan province, and it seemed that he had also stabbed a hornet's nest.

    Now not only the wealthy bandits in Jiangnan province are full of hostility towards their Qinghe army.

    Moreover, there are also the main force of the Southern Army outside. If it is not done well, they will capsize in the gutter.

    However, it is not Chen Ziang's style to eat something in his mouth and then spit it out.

    Since the problems encountered, worrying has no effect, and we can only find ways to solve the problems.

    Only by facing up to the difficulties, listing the problems one by one, and solving them in a targeted manner, otherwise the problems will accumulate more and more.

    "The Jiangnan Province has a large population, fertile land, and four major granaries. We cannot give up."

    Although their Qinghe army was in a very passive situation in the Jiangnan province, Chen Ziang was unwilling to give up the Jiangnan province that had finally been defeated.

    ?Because they took advantage of the opportunity to fight down, if they hand it over to the Southern Army and want to cross the south of the Yangtze River in the future, they will have to pay more.

    Chen Ziang set the tone, Yuan Jie, the deputy head of the army, and Han Feng, the head of the banner, also breathed a sigh of relief.

    They managed to take down the Jiangnan Province, and they were really worried that Chen Ziang would give up the Jiangnan Province because of difficulties.

     "As for the serious problem of banditry, the army is not familiar with the Jiangnan province, so it is not easy to encircle and suppress, and now we have to deal with the threat of the southern army, so we should refer to the old method and quickly set up a security department, and the people in the security department will be responsible for maintaining the local area.  law and order."

    Chen Ziang and the others have set up security forces at the county and town levels in Jiangbei Province, including security brigades, squadrons and squads.

    The task of these troops is to be responsible for suppressing bandits and hunting down thieves in the territory. When necessary, they can be directly formed into regular troops on the spot to fight.

    Practice has proved that it is feasible to form a security force to maintain local order.

    At the same time, it can also allow the regular army to concentrate on dealing with external enemies instead of scattered to suppress bandits.

    "For the candidate for the Chief of Public Security, do you have any recommendations?"

    Chen Ziang misunderstood Yuan Jie and Han Feng before, so now, in order to show his trust in them, he asked them to recommend candidates for the Secretary of Public Security.

    After all, the Public Security Department of Jiangnan Province is in charge of the security of a province. At that time, the security force under his command may reach tens of thousands, and his power can even surpass that of an ordinary banner leader.

    Therefore, the chief of public security in Jiangnan Province will also be a person with great power at that time. They recommended them, and they will be favored by others in the future.

    Yuan Jie and Han Feng looked at each other, but they did not expect that Chen Ziang would ask them to recommend candidates.

    They also really want to push their confidants to the position of chief of public security, after all, that is a fat job.

    However, after weighing the matter, Han Feng first gave up the opportunity of recommendation.

    ?Because this chief of public security is not an ordinary person is competent, if you recommend your own person, it will inevitably cause people to misunderstand, thinking that he is using power for personal gain.

    And if the person he recommends can't quickly stabilize the position, he, the recommender, will lose face, and Chen Ziang might even reduce his favorability for him as the recommender.

    Seeing that Han Feng gave up on the recommendation, Yuan Jie, the deputy head of the army, also smiled wryly in his heart, because he couldn't back down too.

    He quickly filtered through the list of officers at all levels under his command, and soon found a suitable candidate.

    "How about Yue Shan, who is now in charge of money and food transportation?" Yuan Jie, the deputy army commander, asked tentatively.

    "Yueshan?"

    After hearing this name, Chen Ziang also quickly recalled the officer with this name.

    "No, no, he just made a big mistake in violating military law, and now he is introspecting himself. The provincial security department is in charge of the security of a province, and has a heavy responsibility. At this time, we should choose another person who abides by military discipline and works safely."

    Hearing Yuan Jie recommending Yue Shan, Han Feng, head of the Twelfth Banner, couldn't help shaking his head immediately.

    Yue Shan was the first banner battalion commander of his 12th Banner Regiment, and he was also a member of his 12th Banner Regiment. After the defeat in Taiyun County, he beheaded the prisoners of war angrily, so that he was dismissed later, but he was activated again shortly after.  Money transportation.

    Yue Shan has already left a bad impression in the heart of Banner Chief Han Feng, so he feels that Yue Shan is not suitable to be the Chief of Public Security.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
