The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 195: Here Comes the Rookie
On October 12th, Yuanheng 3, the Shuntianfu Bingzi annual martial arts examinations were announced, and Rongguofu Jia Min won No.1 and successfully passed the examination.Marchand won No.[-] and became Jie Yuan.

Although it is No.3, this achievement is enough to make the entire Jia family feel proud.

Among the four great families of King Jia Shixue, a son of the Wang family participated in this year's martial arts exam, but failed in the children's examination.

Some sons of the historian passed the children's examination, but they also failed in this round of rural examinations.

Therefore, Jia Min won the election this time and became the only remaining one among the four major families.

As a representative of the Xue family, Aunt Xue followed the old lady to wait for the news at Rongxi Hall. After hearing the news, she was the first to express her congratulations.

Afterwards, the historians and members of the Wang family also sent people to congratulate them immediately.

After passing the township examination and becoming a Juren, this is considered to be officially famous.Even if you fail the test in the future, you can still register with the Ministry of War, at least you can serve in the local army in Shuntian Prefecture.

In other words, Jia Min is now considered to have officially entered the ranks of officers.

With the good news came the bad news.That is the false accusation about Jia Min cheating in the examination room.This matter was known not only to the entire Jia family, but also to almost everyone in the various families and even the official circles in the imperial capital.

Although the case has been accepted by Shuntian Mansion, people are still guessing in private as to who did it.What is their purpose?
During the discussion, people's attention turned to the Niu family, Liu family, Chen family and Ma family who had previously had business disputes with Jia Min.

The four members immediately stood up and spoke out on different occasions, saying that this matter had nothing to do with them, and they disregarded the relationship between this matter and themselves.

The important evidence for the Niu family, the Liu family, and the Chen family is that their own families did not take the exam, did not have any serious conflicts with Jia Min, and they had no motive to make false accusations.

Although Ma Shangde of the Ma family participated in the imperial examination, Ma Shangde was the first in both the children's examination and the rural examination, and he did not regard Jia Min as an opponent at all, so they had no motive to falsely accuse Jia Min.

This matter has been discussed for a while, and it is difficult to reach a conclusion.People are waiting for the final conclusion of Shuntian Mansion.

This incident of false accusation is somewhat similar to last time when Baoyu and Jia Rong publicized Jia Min's plagiarism. Therefore, there was a kind of discussion in Jia's house at first, suspecting that this time it was also done by Jia's insiders.

Jia's mother summoned Baoyu, Jia Rong, Jia Huan and Wang Xifeng, and sternly interrogated them.Aunt Xue and Baochai also questioned Xue Pan carefully, but they all firmly denied it.

In this regard, Jia Min also conducted an internal analysis, and finally denied the suspicion that the insiders of Jia's house did it.

Although he once had trouble with Baoyu and others, his position has been consolidated after several rounds of confrontation. Even if the insiders of Jia's house falsely accuse him, it will have no effect.

Besides, it is an honor for the entire Jia family that Jia Min wins the exam.Even if Baoyu and others wanted to do this, they had to consider the consequences.

Once it is found out that they did the thing, they will become the public enemies of the Jia family. This consequence is very difficult to bear.

Since this matter did not delay Jia Min's promotion, the crisis of false accusation was temporarily resolved.

Jia Min is now waiting for the investigation results of Shuntian Mansion.If there is a result, it is of course the best.If there is no result, or if the result is not satisfactory, Jia Min is ready to take action on his own.

Therefore, Jia Min soon put his main energy on training soldiers.

Because Feng Ziying is back.

The family soldiers drawn from various mansions have already arrived at Yeduju. Yesterday, all the mansion soldiers recruited by Feng Ziying were also in place.The recruits were registered, grouped, and formed overnight, and the officers of each team were appointed. Today, the camp opening ceremony will be held.

Those princes and brothers sent by various mansions in the early days have now become military officers.After arduous, inhuman training, they seem to have completely changed themselves.

Facing this group of recruits now, it was like an old fox seeing a chick, giving them a bloodthirsty excitement.

The torture, insults, and corporal punishment that Jia Ming imposed on them back then can finally be imposed on these new rookies.

It seems that he can vent his anger severely.

Since he didn't dare to vent his pent-up anger to Chief Min, let's vent it on these unlucky newcomers.

How Jia Min treated them back then, they treated these rookies.

Of course, what they were looking forward to the most was another thing.

That's the upcoming officer appointment.

Although they all know that they will definitely have an officer position.However, the size, treatment and dignity of the position are different.

The former watermelon garden has now become a big playground.The original training was all carried out in the yard, but now there are too many people, and it can no longer be accommodated.All future training will be held here.

On the frontmost troop counting platform, hung a large banner with the words "Opening Ceremony of Fubing Training Camp" written on it.

In the center in front of the counting platform, there is a flagpole, where the military flag of the Fubing Regiment will be raised in a while.

On the playground, the recruits lined up roughly.Although there is a formation, it still looks chaotic.Everyone was discussing something in a low voice, and the voice was noisy.

The trained officers looked at the recruits coldly.Almost everything in my mind.

I'll tell you to mess up for a while, and when I'm under my command, I'll clean you up in two days.There are more than 20 iron cages in the yard, but they are all prepared for you.

At the hour of the hour, Jia Min, surrounded by Feng Ziying, Chen Yejun, Wei Ruolan and Jiao Li, walked onto the Dianbingtai.

The opening ceremony was presided over by Chen Yejun.The first item is to raise the military flag.

The military flag was guarded by four people, with Jia Lian, Feng Zijing, Chen Yeqing, and Wei Ruoshui holding one corner respectively.Stepping forward to the flagpole, Jia Min stepped down, and several people hung the military flag on the rope. As soon as Jia Min pulled the rope, the military flag rose slowly.

At the top, the flag was blown away by the wind, and people could see the pattern on it clearly.

It was a bow and a musket.The firecracker is like an arrow, resting on the bow, the bow has been opened, and it seems to be fired at any time.

After the flag is raised, it is the ceremony of counting troops.

This ceremony is to call the formation according to the roster compiled in advance.The four flag bearers just now took on this task.

The counting ceremony lasted for two cups of tea, and finally formed four formations.The principle of formation is to divide as much as possible according to the country of origin.Those who are in the same hometown should be assigned to a team as much as possible.

Although there are flaws in doing so, it can promote the integration of the team as soon as possible, and it is also conducive to stimulating their sense of honor.

After the formation, the head of the team gave lectures.

At this time, these recruits officially confirmed that the fabled young man of fifteen or sixteen was really their regiment leader.

Jia Min didn't say a few words, and it was over.

It's no use telling them too much now.One is that their minds are still in a state of anxiety, and what they are currently concerned about is the daily life and treatment issues such as food, housing and military pay.

Second, if you talk too much, they will not understand you.Only in future training can I slowly integrate their thoughts into my own.

The fourth item of the ceremony is the appointment of the officers most concerned by the officers.

The establishment of the government soldiers is a regiment.The first to announce is the regiment staff.

Leader: Jia Min.

Chief of Staff: Feng Ziying.Staff assistants: Wei Ruoshan, Jia Zhi.

Trainer: Chen Yejun.Training Assistants: Jia Ping, Li Gui.

Chief of Military Intelligence: Wei Ruolan.Military Intelligence Assistant: Jia Qin.

Quartermaster: Jolly.Quartermaster Assistant: Wei Ruoyu.

All of the above belong to the organization and staffing of the regiment.

Among them, the chief of staff is equivalent to the chief of staff, and the assistant to the staff is equivalent to the staff.

The trainer, of course, focuses on daily training.What is more eye-catching is that Li Gui, as a slave, became a training assistant.

This arrangement, Jia Min is also deliberate.One is that Li Gui's performance is remarkable;Let them see that slaves can be officers as long as they perform well.

Of course, in the next step, Jia Min will redeem Li Gui's body.

The chief of intelligence is naturally the collection, collation and analysis of military intelligence.Including internal and external two parts.

Internally, it mainly collects soldiers' thoughts, background analysis, personnel screening and internal defense.

Externally, analyze the situation of possible future combat opponents.Including Tatars in the north, Goryeo in the east, Tubo in the southwest and chieftains in Miaojiang, Japanese pirates in the southeast, etc.

In Jia Min's plan, San Francisco was also included in the scope of collection.However, because it is still relatively sensitive, it will be delayed first.When the time is right in the future, work in this area will be carried out.

The quartermaster is naturally in charge of logistical support.Gioli is placed in this position, of course, because he is more expert.However, the more profound reason is to make good use of Jolly's business acumen and financial expertise.This is very important for future firearms manufacturing.

The next announcement was the appointment of officers for each battalion.

Commander of the First Battalion: Jia Lian.There are three companies under its jurisdiction, one, two, and three, and the company commanders are: Jia Qiang, Jia Yun, and Qin Zhong.

Second Battalion Commander: Feng Zijing.There are three companies under its jurisdiction, one, two, and three, and the company commanders are Feng Zipu, Feng Zimiao, and Shi Song.

Commander of the Third Battalion: Chen Yeqing.There are three companies under the jurisdiction of one, two and three.The company commanders are Chen Yetong, Huang Tianyun and Shi Liu.

Directly subordinate team leader: Wei Ruoshui.

Among them, the directly subordinate unit is mainly responsible for military doctors, grooms, cooks, coachmen, and daily patrols.Security, military law and other matters.

At this point, all agencies are announced and the appointment of officers is completed.

Due to the limited personnel, there are currently no deputy positions for each position, and all platoon leaders and squad leaders are vacant.Just waiting to be selected from the recruits in the future.

When they first entered Yeduju for military training, there were 29 people in total.Among them, Jia Baoyu, Jia Rong, Jia Huan and Xue Pan left the team.Now there are 25 people left, each in his place.
