"We are not trying to work together, nor are we afraid of death, but we are really ignorant of leading troops to fight. The key is to have a self-knowledge. If we agree at once, it will ruin big things. Uncle Zhizu, in my opinion, you should ask for another wise man and recruit some old corps who are good at fighting."

Qiu Chengsong's words obviously resonated with them.

Lin Shanhu closed the roster and agreed with deep agreement: "There is no diamond, no porcelain work, and you will consider it again? Of course, we will not be idle either. We can be a guard for you to ensure safety; we can also help those battalion commanders and company commanders to ensure that they have no other intentions."

It is indeed a bit difficult for them to lead the troops. Master Chen sighed secretly and asked the only "female hero": "Xie Shimei, what do you think?"

Xie Xiulan shook her head and smiled bitterly, "Mu Guiying, Mulan is the character in the play, so she can't be really taken. I, a female, can I still lead troops to fight like them? Even if I agree, the soldiers you recruit will not agree."

I have to admit that her words do make some sense.

Master Chen nodded and said as if nothing had happened: "Everyone's words make sense and logical, but according to this logic, then I, the infamous master, should not be the colonel leader."

"Uncle Jizu, we really don't mean that."

"Let me finish the sentence."

Master Chen's face turned upright and said extremely serious: "Despite these difficulties, this is the only chance for us, Qiu, Xie, Yang, Lin, Chen, and Penang, to survive! The four of them must think that Penang is far away from Shanghai, far away from China, or a colony under the control of the British. It has been calm for more than a hundred years, and has changed from the original hall to the current company, and there is no danger.

Now I will tell you clearly that things are unpredictable in the world. Penang, which has enjoyed peace for more than 100 years, is no longer so peaceful! If you want to survive in this era of war, you must be prepared for danger in times of peace and have enough strength to protect yourself. Now is an opportunity, an opportunity to let Penang Fugang society have its own army."

It turned out that it was such a big game of chess! The four of them suddenly realized that they realized why the elders in Nanyang supported the person in front of them so much. Qiu Chengsong pondered for a moment and couldn't help asking: "Before our people arrived, the soldiers have already started recruiting. Uncle Zu, I believe you have already made a charter on how to arrange it?"

Master Chen nodded and laughed: "As Brother Cheng Song said, I do have some preliminary plans. You have never brought soldiers, let alone fought. Maybe the generals who are good at fighting are not born, so we can learn it. So in a few days, you will be sent to the Central Military Officer Training Corps and learn how to lead troops to fight."

Lin Shanhu blurted out: "Send us to the Central Officer Training Corps?"

"Yes," Mr. Chen confirmed: "It is a military academy that is currently being established. The textbooks are Huangpu and the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School. They are divided into disciplines and academic disciplines, including tactics, topography, measurement, shooting, field service, and platoon coaches. Of course, political learning and Japanese are indispensable. For those who want to listen, they will listen, and if they don't want to listen, they will go in and out of the right ear."

The conditions in Nanyang are much better than those in China. Chen's Yingchuan Hall, Xiayang Zhide Hall, Qiu's Longshan Hall, Shitang Xie's Zongshi and Lin's Jiulong Hall all have their own charity schools. Even poor children who have been deliberately trained to become fists have received education at the level of high school and even middle school level.

Everyone knows literacy through literacy, and some people can speak fluent English, which is incomparable to those gangsters under Du Yuesheng. Otherwise, Master Chen would not have made such arrangements.

A man, who doesn’t want to gallop across the battlefield? What’s more, they are fighting and killing to make a living. Qiu Chengsong was moved. After thinking about it, he shook his head and said, “But the soldiers will arrive in two days. Is it time for us to cram the Buddha’s feet?”

"I just said that you are not going to lead troops to the battlefield tomorrow." Master Chen took the teacup handed by Master Chen and said confidently: "Those Japanese can train you and they can also train them. At worst, I can invite a few more, so that they will not make the Japanese suspicious, but also solve our urgent needs. And you... are mainly to win people's hearts. As for how to buy, I think you are better than me."

Yang Zhongyi couldn't hear what he meant. He laughed and said, "If anything else is not good, it's okay to win people's hearts. At worst, you can set up an incense hall, invite a god to join them in blood, and make twenty brothers of different surnames one by one. Why worry about our group not being a solid piece of solidity?"

"This is a solution," Xie Xiulan, who has been silent, took over the conversation and said expressionlessly: "But I, a woman, cannot be called brothers like you, let alone Jinlan, so this battalion commander may not be able to do it. But besides me, Xie in the Shitang has fifteen brothers. If Brother Chen Shi doesn't mind, I want to call Xie Wenbin from this hall to discuss."

He was really a person who refused to suffer losses. Master Chen was so happy that he nodded in agreement and said, "No problem."

After a while, Xie Wenbin, the second representative of Xie Company, sat next to her, briefly introduced what she said before, and returned to the topic.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the officer training regiment will be located in another Japanese military camp not far from us. This means that you can go out early and come back late, which will be of great help to get to know and master the subordinates as soon as possible. At the same time, considering that the overall environment is too complicated, no one, including everyone here, is allowed to leave the camp without permission."

The rules of the place you have to follow, which is completely understandable. Seeing that they have no objection, Mr. Chen continued: "In order to express the common sense of Qiu, Xie, Yang, Lin, Chen, and the five major surname companies, our regiment will break the rules and set up five battalions. The battalion commanders of each battalion are held by four brothers of the Changlu of the church, and they will report to the military committee that is being prepared to give the title of major. However, there are only three companies below the battalion, and only three platoons below the company. The officers in the headquarters will be agreed upon by the regiment headquarters."

The four men who have been promoted to major battalion commander will certainly not have any objections. On the contrary, the only "female hero" is unhappy and suddenly asked: "Brother Chen Shi, as the eldest son of Yingchuan Hall, you must be familiar with the company's rules. Although Xiulan is a woman, she is the same as you, so I can't let me raise my hands to salute when I see the younger generations, right?"

Before Master Chen could speak, Yang Zhongyi from Zhidetang shook his head and said, "Auntie, don't bring such food and food. I'm honoring you three points in Penang, which means that the old and the young are orderly, and the superiors are different. But this is not Penang, I think you should not make things difficult for Uncle Jizu."

Qiu Chengsong seemed to have no relationship with this beautiful "female hero", and nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, why do you have the benefits to take? No, Brother Wenbin has become the battalion commander for you, so don't mess around anymore."

"Are you crazy?"

Xie Xiulan was furious, and slapped the table with a "bang", pointed at his nose and roared: "Qiu Chengsong, you ungrateful thing. If my aunt hadn't rescued her two years ago, you would have been in prison and counted rats now! And you Yang Zhongyi, my aunt even blocked you. I think you could just change your name, which would be called unfaithfulness and unrighteousness."

"I admit that you saved me once, but I have also eliminated disasters for your stone hall! You have to be a person based on your conscience. If you really get the most out of your life, even your uncle owes me Qiu Chengsong a life."

"Yes, I Yang Zhong..."

"It's not your business, shut up first," Xie Xiulan showed her true face, put her waist on her waist, pointed at Qiu Chengsong with the other hand and scolded her: "I've grown up my skills, and I dare to settle old accounts with my aunt, okay... Then I will figure it out to you. My uncle owes you a life, but what about the former head of your Longshan Hall? Who do you think that aunt should take care of the brothers who died in this hall?"

The five major surname companies have been in unison, and have been working together for more than a century. They have been doing things such as smuggling, drug trafficking, arms trafficking and even human trafficking. It is hard to say who owe whom.

Master Chen was so angry that he immediately coughed twice and said coldly: "Xie Shimei, Brother Cheng Song, you will be a soldier when you enter the military camp, so you should stick to the rules of the army. You just took this opportunity to announce that after the Changfu brothers in this hall will serve as the captain of the military law after returning, and the members of the team are all veterans who have been fighting for the rest of their lives."

Xie Xiulan certainly knew that this was a warning, but women also had advantages for women, and using softness to overcome hardness was one of them. So she turned around and smiled and said, "Don't let it be for Shimei Shimei. It sounds awkward, just call me Xiulan. But to be honest, if you choose Chief Fu as the military law captain, you really chose the right person, I will obey him!"

"Okay, let's get back to the point," Mr. Chen ignored the praise and criticism, looking around everyone and continued, "In view of Xiu... Xie Shimei's concerns are not unreasonable, I decided to also report to the Military Commission to award the title of major. As for the position, I am temporarily appointed as the Director of the Regiment Communication Department, and assist Deputy Chief Chen and Deputy Chief Wang to negotiate with the Military Commission on military pay, equipment and other corresponding matters."

"Social Department? Brother Chen Shi, I am not a socialite, you should ask Gao Ming for another one."

Looking at her very reluctant look, Master Chen almost burst into laughter, but in order to give her a warning, he still said with a face: "I don't know how to ask for another wise man, but I can still do it if I ask someone to buy tickets."

It’s so shameless to be driven back in such a shame! What’s more, it’s a forced one to come to Shanghai. Thinking that the case I was carrying was not settled, and after returning, it’s likely that I would be in prison for the British. Xie Xiulan had to nod and agreed: “The social department is the social department, but then before that, don’t expect me to be able to have a good reputation, and I won’t do those despicable things.”

After a good time, the old master didn't want to be disturbed by her alone, so he inserted it in, "Captain, since all five battalions have been confirmed, how will the recruits arranged the people they recruited before?"

Only then did Master Chen remember the dozens of crooked dates sent by Pan Da. Looking at his thoughtful look, the old master added: "After you go to Peking, I made some arrangements to ask Abiao to bring them into the concession with great fanfare and collect the body of Renjishantang under the banner of promoting "Heyun". At first, there was a lot of resistance and I was also shot several times. Later, the Japanese and No. 76 intervened. I don't know whether it was because the risk was too great or because it was not worth assassinating these small characters. I have been peaceful for ten days."

He is so cunning that he can come up with such a sinister trick. Master Chen was so happy and couldn't help asking, "What do you think of is running away?"

"Everyone ran away, only about thirty honest people left. However, in this mess, even our group was given the nickname "corpse collection group".

Master Chen thought for a while and suddenly smiled, "It's better to collect corpses than to be collected by others. Also, continue to let them go to the concession to collect corpses, regardless of wind and rain. Never stop. Only by making the people in the concession get used to it can we use this guise of being so unlucky that we can do something that we want to do but cannot or dare not do at critical moments."
