The end of the military era

Early the next morning, more than [-] other warships from the Coastal Defense Fleet returned to Ganyang Military Port.

Immediately, the Cui family and the Chen family became involuntarily alarmed. The Cui family's Ninth Division of the Fengwu Army and the Chen family's Fifth Division of the Fengwu Army both entered a state of preparation.

Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.

The problem is that the Cui family and the Chen family both received benefits from the Silver Wolf Empire, and even the two families received a batch of weapons and ammunition sponsored by the Silver Wolf Empire free of charge, planning to take the opportunity to completely remove the power of the Zhou family from Ganyang City.

Now that the Silver Wolf Empire has withdrawn, the Cui family and the Chen family are of course worried that the Zhou family will settle accounts after the fall.

As for the secret acquisition of the Cui family and the Chen family by the Silver Wolf Empire, neither the Cui family nor the Chen family thought they could keep the Zhou family from it.

Zhou Rui and Liu Yiqiu also returned to Ganyang City with more than [-] warships of the coastal defense fleet.

In a study room of the Zhou Mansion, Zhou Xiaozheng, who was sitting in a wheelchair, smiled and said to Zhou Rui: "I never thought that our Zhou family would still be so beautiful!

Even a behemoth like the Silver Wolf Empire has no choice but to succumb to our Zhou family!

Well done son!

As expected of Zhou Xiaozheng's son!Ha ha! "

Zhou Rui said with a smile: "It just happened to coincide with the intensification of the conflict between the Silver Wolf Empire and the Flying Leopard Empire. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to make the Silver Wolf Empire subdued."

Zhou Xiaozheng said: "No matter what, our Zhou family has shown its face in the entire Han and Tang Empire this time.

By the way, how is the situation in Zhenwei Town? "

"After Huitong City and Yiguang City were captured by our Zhou family, most of the families in Zhenwei Town have already expressed their willingness to honor you as the new Zhenwei Jiedushi."

Zhou Xiaozheng waved his hand, "I'm already 120 satisfied that you can make our Zhou family into the current state, so you should be directly in charge of Zhenwei Jiedushi!

Now that I am like this, I don't want to be called a Jiedushi anymore, and I plan to retire in Ganyang City in the future.

A few days ago, Shen Zhi came for a visit, and what he said inside and outside the meaning was that Fengwu Jiedu Mansion hoped that our Zhou family's forces would withdraw from Fengwu Town.

Ganyang City is where your father and I made our fortune, I don't care about anything else, our Zhou family's territory in Ganyang City must not be given up. "

Zhou Rui hurriedly said: "Father, I have sent people to find medicines for tendon injuries and spinal injuries, maybe"

Before Zhou Rui finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhou Xiaozheng, "Stop wasting manpower and material resources. I know my injury best, and it is impossible to heal it."

Of course Zhou Rui knew that injuries like Zhou Xiaozheng could not be cured, but Zhou Rui pinned his hopes on the lottery system.

At the beginning, Zhou Rui asked the lottery system whether the "Primary Physical Quality Enhancement Potion" could heal his father's injury?

Although the lottery system told Zhou Rui that it is not recommended for seriously injured people to take "primary physical fitness enhancement medicine" to avoid counterproductive effects, but the lottery system mentioned medicine for healing.

It's a pity that up to now, Zhou Rui has not prescribed any healing medicine that can treat his father's injury.

Zhou Xiaozheng went on to say: "Now that your elder brother is gone, the family business of our Zhou family will belong to you after all.

In the position of Zhenwei Jiedushi, there is no difference if you sit in the morning or in the evening. "

Seeing Zhou Xiaozheng's attitude, Zhou Rui did not insist on letting Zhou Xiaozheng have the false name of Zhenwei Jiedushi.

"Father, don't worry, Ganyang City is the foundation of our Zhou family, no one can let our Zhou family leave Ganyang City.

I will take care of Fengwu Jiedu's mansion. "

"Our Zhou family's army, how did you and your second uncle come together for this new reorganization plan?"

Zhou Rui first told his father Zhou Xiaozheng about Zhou Xiaorong's slimming plan, and then said: "Father, I will discuss with my second uncle that the several troops in Fengwu Town will be reorganized according to the new organization.

There are about 3 division-level troops and about 1 brigade-level troops.

The extra officers and soldiers were transferred to various units of the Zhenwei Army.

After taking Huitong City and Yiguang City, Zhenwei Army's Eighth and Ninth Divisions, as well as the Ninth Mixed Brigade and No.11 Mixed Brigade, the designations of these four troops are also in the hands of our defenders. in the hands of the army.

So in the next step, our Zhou family will reorganize 6 infantry divisions and 5 mixed brigades in Zhenwei Town.

Including Ganyang Garrison Division, Fengwu Army No.17 Independent Brigade, Fengwu Army No.20 Second Independent Brigade, Longshan Garrison Brigade and Xiangshi Garrison Brigade, the total strength of our Zhou family's army will reach 30. "

On the afternoon of Zhou Rui's return to Ganyang City, Shen Zhi, the commander of the Third Division of the Fengwu Army, visited him.

"It's really a three-day farewell, and it's even more impressive to see each other.

I don't know if it's appropriate to call nephew Zhou Xian as Marshal Zhou or Young Marshal Zhou? "Shen Zhi said with a smile.

In the Han and Tang Empires, the title of Marshal was not casually called. Only the Jiedushi of various feudal towns could be called Marshal.

"Uncle Shen can just call me like before. I don't know why Uncle Shen came to the door this time?"

Shen Zhi hesitated for a moment and said: "Then I'll just say it straight, now it's a certainty that your Zhou family will rule Zhenwei Town.

In this way, isn't it inappropriate for your Zhou family to stay in Ganyang City and control Longshan City? "

"Not suitable? I think it is very suitable!

Even if our Zhou family takes over Zhenwei Town, in Fengwu Town, we will still obey the orders of Fengwu Jiedu Mansion, and our Zhou family will never pay a copper coin less for the taxes that should be paid to Fengwu Jiedu Mansion. "

Shen Zhi said with a wry smile: "But after your Zhou family took over Zhenwei Town, it means that it is the Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion.

If you still stay in Ganyang City and control Longshan City, it will inevitably make the outside world mistakenly believe that Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion has invaded our Fengwu Town. "

"Uncle Shen was joking, now Jingyang City in Zhenwei Town is under the control of Fengwu Jiedu Mansion.

Speaking of the invasion, it was the Fengwu Jiedu Mansion's invasion of Zhenwei Town. "

Zhou Rui's words made Shen Zhi's heart tremble. In fact, the Fengwu Jiedu Mansion was very worried that after the Zhou family took over Zhenwei Town, they would make plans for Jingyang City.

After all, Jingyang City was originally one of the cities that directly belonged to the Fengwu Jiedu Mansion, and Jingyang City also involved a silver mine with tens of thousands of tons of silver reserves.

"Nephew Zhou Xian, Fengwu Jiedu Mansion and Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion signed an agreement on the ownership of Jingyang City."

"Hehe, Uncle Shen, the Xu family's Zhenwei Jiedu mansion signed the agreement with Fengwu Jiedu mansion, not our Zhou family's Zhenwei Jiedu mansion.

If the Fengwu Jiedu Mansion is willing to return Jingyang City to our Zhou family, it is easy to discuss the matter of withdrawing from Ganyang City and Longshan City. "

In a study room of Fengwu Jiedu Mansion in Xiushui City, Shen Du, the commander of Fengwu Army's first division, held a telegram in his hand. Shen Sheng said to Fengwu Jiedu envoy Shen Xiao: "Father, third brother Send a telegram back from Ganyang City.

The Zhou family actually asked our Fengwu Jiedu Mansion for Jingyang City! "

Shen Xiao couldn't help frowning when he heard the words, took a look at the telegram in Shen Du's hand, then shook his head and said: "It seems that it is impossible for the Zhou family to withdraw from our Fengwu Town voluntarily."

Jingyang City and the villages and towns around Jingyang City have a population of over one million.

Moreover, there is a silver mine with tens of thousands of tons of silver reserves in Jingyang City. Now Fengwu Jiedu Mansion can mine silver worth hundreds of thousands of silver coins from this silver mine every month. Under the premise of large-scale mining.
