General Fan Songfu not only gave Hu Fei a position, but also allocated 500 servings of weapons, ammunition, food, grass and military pay. General Fan made it clear: I know you don’t have so many people now, I give you these things to let you recruit people as soon as possible. If the people exceed 500, I will reissue food, grass and supplies to you!

Okay, people give the things first, whether they can attract people depends on your ability! Hu Fei has always been short of money. He can go to grab big investors if he has no money. Hu Fei lacks a name, a formal name. Now he has a name. Although he is a guerrilla team, this is a genuine army recognized by the state. With this name, he will be more confident in recruiting troops and buying horses!

Where to recruit soldiers? Of course, it is to go to the vast rural areas. How many mountain people can there be in the mountains? Besides, the nearby mountainous areas are all under the territory of Commander-in-Chief Fan. Even if there are some idle laborers, they have been pulled away by the guerrilla corps. Where is the turn of Hu Fei, the newly established advancing detachment, to recruit people?

Hu Fei felt like a mirror in his heart. He understood that if he wanted to expand the team, he had to go outside the mountain to pull people, and he couldn't get involved in the mountainous areas. In the past, Hu Fei wanted to expand the team, often wiped out a bandit village and ate a small fish directly to annex. But now he is an officer recognized by the state, so of course he can't always rely on that unreliable method. He has to learn from other people's regular army and post a notice to recruit people!

Hu Fei convened all the major officers such as Liu Dong, Gou Tianxiao, Ji Jinbiao to hold a meeting and informed everyone of the current situation of the army. Everyone heard that their team had changed their numbers again, and some were happy and some were dissatisfied. In short, they all said everything.

Ji Jinbiao and Gou Tianxiao were the most radical, and Ji Jinbiao even wanted to bring people into Nanchang City to recruit soldiers. Liu Dong was the calmest person. He thought it was nothing to be excited about just changing the number, and this advancing army detachment may not be much better than the temporary third regiment. The third battalion commander Yang Jinsheng even thought that the advancing army's 88th regiment did not have the temporary third regiment yet. The advancing army's 88th regiment sounded formal.

The more people talked, the more outrageous they became. In the early stage of a good discussion, the louder they spoke, and in the end they were a little bit like a quarrel. Hu Fei looked at him and stretched his hands to stop me! The people present suddenly became silent, and all their eyes looked at the newly appointed Captain Hu.

"The 88th Detachment of the Advance Army must be reported to the Military Commission for filing, and it is incomparable to the temporary organization of the 3rd Regiment. Brothers, I have nothing to say about anything else. In short, the 3rd Regiment of the Advance Army is more reliable than the 3rd Regiment! Let's talk to the outside world in the future, that is, the 88th Detachment of the Advance Army. Don't mention the 3rd Regiment of the 3rd Regiment to me. Do you understand?"

"I understand!" Hu Fei said, and the officers present obeyed. This has become a habit. Hu Fei didn't speak, and everyone discussed it casually. Once Hu Fei spoke, it was a conclusion, a resolution, and no one could change it!

The discussion on the issue of military number ends here. Next, let’s get to the point and continue to discuss the issue of how to recruit troops.

Hu Fei made a public request: After the officers who came to attend the meeting returned, they immediately organized effective personnel to recruit soldiers in the countryside, and large cities were not allowed to go. The interests of all parties there were complicated, and the 88th Detachment of the advancing army was not suitable for the city to be involved. The scale of recruitment was the better, and the more the better. No matter how many people you could recruit, we would be responsible for food and pay! If you recruit a company, you should be the company commander, and if you recruit a battalion, you should be the battalion commander!

"What if I recruit a group?" Gou Tianxiao made up for fun at the right time.

"I will let you be the leader of the group if I can recruit two thousand people!" Hu Fei's words made everyone present burst into laughter. However, behind the smile, everyone's eyes flashed with greed.

Who doesn’t want to be a high-ranking official? Who doesn’t want to have many people under his command? Is Brother Fei worried about not being able to recruit people with such generous conditions? It’s hard to find a toad with three legs, and people with two legs are everywhere in the world! Whether people can be recruited and how many people can be recruited depends on your personal ability!

At that time, the Chinese people were poor, and there were many people who couldn't eat enough. There were also many people who were poor and selling their children. The news of the 88th Detachment's opening recruitment immediately caused a sensation!

I heard that there was a place to take care of the full meal and even pay for money, so the brave one came to inquire about the news that day. After a meal of full meal, someone happily returned to the countryside to promote it. Well, groups of villagers flocked to them. There were men, women, old and young, and thousands of people who helped the elderly and brought the young to come to eat and get the money.

When the officers in charge of recruitment and reception saw what was going on? I am a recruitment office, not a charity hall! None of Gou Tianxiao's gang has a kind heart and soft face. Seeing that the situation was wrong, he pulled his face and even threatened it. The elderly, weak, women and children did not dare to make do with it. In the end, all the young and middle-aged men aged 17 to 35 were left.

Those young and middle-aged people were the relatives of the elderly, weak, women and children. After signing up and filling out forms, they naturally had to hand over the money to their relatives who accompanied them. The elderly, weak, weak, and heavy Yuan Datou was held in the palm of their hands, and naturally they lost interest in continuing to make trouble. What else should I do if I get the money?

The conscription work went smoothly. Hu Fei recruited more than 600 people in three days. He, the captain of the colonel, finally no longer had to sing an empty city plan. He didn't have enough guns, so he went to see Commander-in-Chief Fan. Without saying a word, Fan Songfu distributed guns and ammunition in full according to the head. At the same time, the corresponding military uniform, cloaks, including money, grain, and military pay were all reissued.

Fan Songfu was too curious about Hu Fei's recruitment speed. After distributing weapons, money and food, General Fan pulled Hu Fei to consult the reason why he was recruiting quickly. Of course, Hu Fei had nothing to hide. After saying everything, Fan Songfu was shocked, "Have you spent all the money and food I gave you on the recruits?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Looking at Fan Songfu's expression, Hu Fei felt this puzzle in his heart. Is there anything wrong with me doing this?

"Haha, no wonder, no wonder." Fan Songfu said two times, with a wry smile on his face. "After other army commanders get the money and food, they must first leave enough operating funds for the troops. It would be nice to use the remaining small part to send to the recruits. If you use all the money to recruit new recruits, no wonder they recruit so quickly."
