    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1085

    Three months after the collapse of the Far Eastern imperial court was the three months of Qinghe Army construction. They carried out construction in full swing and implemented the New Deal in the newly occupied area.

    And the effect is also remarkable. A large number of roads have been secured with work relief, irrigation canals have been repaired, and the inner city of the new city has begun to take shape.

    At the same time, the New Deal is tantamount to the redistribution of the cake, and a large amount of land that was once annexed by princes and ministers returned to the hands of the people again.

    Although the amount of land obtained by the people of each family is not much, it can be regarded as having a place to stand on.

    And the people got the land distributed by the Qinghe Army, and while they were grateful to the Qinghe Army, they were also ready to take up arms to defend their land at any time.

    The Qinghe army quickly and thoroughly controlled the newly occupied area in just a few months, and the second-line security banner battalions were also established one after another.

    It's just that the war caused the population of each prefecture to drop sharply, so although the security banner camps in each prefecture and county have numbers, the actual number is only 30%.

    And in order to ensure that the prefectures and counties have enough labor for farming, these newly formed second-line security banner battalion soldiers are only in a semi-military state.

    This also means that these newly formed security flag battalions not only have a large gap in numbers, but also they are half soldiers and half farmers, and can only maintain local law and order.

    But now the population has dropped sharply due to the war, especially the large number of young and old people killed in battle. This is also something that can't be helped.

    Fortunately, these areas have completely become the control areas of the Qinghe Army, and the people in these areas have also become staunch supporters of the Qinghe Army.

    Now, apart from Beichuan, which has more mountainous areas, Nanchuan Province and some mountainous areas in the Western Province, there are still a certain number of Far Eastern imperial courts and remnants of bandits hiding, and more than 90% of the area has been controlled by the Qinghe Army.

    The weather was also getting colder day by day, but Chen Ziang didn't show any intention of stopping.

    They are digesting the occupied area, and the enemy is also recruiting troops wantonly, so their task is still very arduous.

    Chen Zi'ang ordered the field troops scattered in various places to gather in the Gyeonggi province one after another, while the local suppression of bandits was left to the newly formed Security Banner Battalion.

    In order to strengthen the combat effectiveness of the security flag battalions in these places, Chen Ziang specially ordered some elites from the field troops to stay in the area to ensure the stability of the rear.

    Chen Ziang was actively mobilizing troops. In late November, the field troops of the Qinghe Army scattered in Beichuan, Nanchuan, Yunmeng and other places also gathered in Gyeonggi Province one after another.

    These assembled troops included both those under the banner of the Qinghe Army and those under the banner of the Rebel Army.

    However, without exception, the actual control of these armies is in the hands of Qinghe Army Chen Ziang.

    Zhou Ba, Lei Ming and others went deep into the enemy's rear and laid down a large territory for Chen Ziang, so Chen Ziang gave them special treatment and met them personally.

    Facing Chen Ziang's personal interview, Zhou Ba and Lei Ming were also flattered.

    In the past, when they fought with Chen Ziang, they often ate food from the same pot, just like brothers.

    But now Chen Ziang is already the former prince, and they have evolved from brothers to courtiers.

    And Chen Ziang treated them as before, which also moved Zhou Ba, Lei Ming and others deeply.

    "You took great risks to lay down a large area behind the enemy lines. On behalf of the Qinghe Army, I thank you."

    ? At Chen Ziang's alone banquet for them, Chen Ziang put down his airs and offered a toast to them.

    "Thank you Your Highness, these are what we should do."

    Zhou Ba and Lei Ming also stood up to thank them in trepidation, not daring to be rude in the slightest.

    "Don't be so restrained, you are all brothers who fought on the battlefield, why are you so born."

    Seeing that both of them were stiff and unable to let go, Chen Ziang couldn't help but scolded with a smile.

    "Let's drink freely tonight, and we won't return if we don't get drunk." Chen Ziang suggested.

    "The general will obey."

    Zhou Ba and Lei Ming naturally did not dare to refuse, and agreed one after another.

    Fortunately, after a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere relaxed.

    Lei Ming and Zhou Ba talked about their experience of fighting in the enemy's rear and the various dangers they encountered, and Chen Ziang was also terrified when he heard it.

    And Chen Ziang also told them about the current general trend of the world at the wine table,?They have a rough judgment on the current situation.

    Now that Zhou Ba and Lei Ming are both generals in command of the army, Chen Ziang entertained them alone in order to get closer to each other.

    After all, now that the Qinghe military family has a great career, and the enemies they face are stronger, they can no longer gather together anytime and anywhere like they used to.

    Banqueting the generals under his command to drink has also become an important means for Chen Ziang to get closer to each other, because only on such occasions can they temporarily put aside each other's identities.

    When Chen Ziang entertained Zhou Ba and Lei Ming, he learned some of their real thoughts by insinuating.

    After confirming that Zhou Ba and Lei Ming were still loyal to him despite leading the army, Chen Ziang also told them some of his thoughts.

    "I have decided to set up the Sixth Field Army and the Seventh Field Army. You will be the commanders of the army. What do you think?" Chen Zi'ang looked at the two people who were flushed from drinking.

    Although Zhou Ba's drinking capacity is good, but Yunxi wine has a high alcohol content, so it took a drink interval before he realized it.

    "Your Highness, thank you Your Highness."

    After Zhou Ba realized it, he was ecstatic in his heart. He stood up and wanted to thank Chen Ziang, but was pushed back to his seat by Chen Ziang.

    "Your Highness, I am worried that I am not capable enough, and I have failed His Highness' trust."

    Although Lei Ming previously served as the deputy head of the Third Field Army, he actually also served as the head of the Thirteenth Banner, most of the time he was on the frontline commanding battles.

    Now that Chen Ziang wants to appoint him as a regiment commander, he is still a little apprehensive in his heart.

    After all, being the deputy army chief is only in charge of a part of the affairs, while the army chief has to coordinate the overall situation and has a heavier burden.

    "It is enough to prove your ability that you can integrate the rebel army behind the enemy and conquer such a large territory alone."

    "Besides you, you have the experience of being the head of the army. I don't think anyone else is qualified to be the commander of these two legions except you," Chen Ziang said.

    Under Chen Ziang's praise, Zhou Ba and Lei Ming were also a little embarrassed, but Chen Ziang officially made them regular, which made them very grateful to Chen Ziang in their hearts.

    Although they were previously stationed behind enemy lines to command the rebel army, they were actually only temporary positions.

    Now directly serving as the head of the newly formed Sixth and Seventh Field Army, it can be regarded as officially stepping on a new level.

    After all, the Qinghe Army now has a lot of deputy army commanders, and the Qinghe Army plus the newly formed Sixth and Seventh Army Corps, including the Guards Corps, only has eight legions.  more difficult.

    All those who can be trusted by Chen Ziang to become the sole commander of the army are brave and brave generals with outstanding abilities.

    Chen Zi'ang formed two new legions not by recruiting troops alone, but by directly reorganizing the rebels in Lingnan Province, Western Province, Beichuan Province, Nanchuan Province and other places.

    Under the leadership of Zhou Ba and Lei Ming, the rebel army in these places is actually no different from the Qinghe army except for the designation.

    Now that Chen Zi'ang has given them a formal designation, it can be regarded as officially joining the battle order of the Qinghe Army.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
