Chapter 180 Adapting measures to local conditions

This can be regarded as a feature adapted to local conditions.

The Dzungar Department did not have well-trained line soldiers, and the number of stragglers who harassed and pinned down in the front row did not need to be too much, and it was enough to rely on their own line infantry to fight.

If Dzungaria is defeated, the imperial court will definitely send cavalry from the north, and the Qingzhou army does not need to train its own cavalry, but only leaves a company of heavy cavalry as seeds.

There are cities in Dzungaria, so special engineering units are needed.

Taking into account the Dzungar cavalry, it was also necessary for each battalion to make light artillery to support the fire.

With the organizational strength at this time, the company can be used as a combat unit at the very least, which is far ahead of the times.

The premise is that there are enough officers, and for the formed infantry alone, nearly two or three hundred officers are needed at the company level.

And the heavy cavalry company, which was the seed, was directly stuffed with eight officers.

Such a proportion of trained officers is the source of Liu Yu's self-confidence, and of course, it is also the bait for the emperor to open up the education of Liangjiazi and establish more basic education schools in the future.

As a trainee officer, some of them are graduates of Wude Palace, and some of them are good sons with the most basic education.

As for the cavalry, there is no way to do it.

The military salary given by the imperial court was not enough, and there was no money to train a regular cavalry unit.

The regular cavalry troops do not need the Songhuajiang soldiers who can ride horses since childhood, and they can be trained to catch a group of people who have never ridden horses.

The idea of the imperial court is still the idea of the previous dynasty, and the various ministries gather and send special generals to pinch together.

With this cooperation, although there will definitely be problems. But considering the level of Dzungaria, this is not a big problem.

The compromise idea is that we can only adopt a new tactical system, emphasize the mobility of the infantry and the speed of changing formations, and rely on the infantry to conquer the world, and cannot completely expect the cavalry drawn by the imperial court to make good cooperation.

The role of the General Staff is to draw up various tactical plans and make adequate preparations. With the volume of Dashun, undefeated is victory.

Liu Yu doesn't care much about various training arrangements.

This group of cadets of the staff class inherited his tactical thinking and explained the reasoning clearly, and they were to draw up specific training plans, which were to be carried out step by step.

After Liu Yu inquired about the specific situation of the training, he asked: "Before the autumn, do you think you can make the Qingzhou Army look like a combatable army?" ”

Wu Fangrui thought about it for a while and said, "There should be no problem." My lord, what needs to be solved at the moment is still some details of the formation change, and now the time for the formation change is still a little slower. Even if there are factors that the drill is still insufficient, there are also some things that are not quite right. ”

"Hmm."

Liu Yu knocked on the training log they had compiled on the table and said, "If there is anything wrong, bring it up for discussion and research." Three stinkers, one Zhuge Liang. Commanders of various companies and battalions, you should also ask more questions. Discuss the research together. I just know a rough idea, have ideas, and understand the general idea. How specific is right or not, you can use this tactical system as the criterion to measure right and wrong; But if you ask me to write everything, it's hard. ”

Wu Fangrui nodded and said, "What the adults said is true." This kind of thing is very cumbersome, so there are more than 80 people in the General Staff Headquarters, and they are also studying for this purpose. According to the requirements of adults, there should be no problem in autumn. In the spring of next year, it should be possible to conduct the long-distance marching training of the Qingzhou Army. The point is that guns are often damaged now, which is already insufficient, and if there is damage, it is even more insufficient. ”

"Again, the lack of guns is a trivial matter, and I think adults can solve it. But on the issue of the reservists, you should also write to Your Majesty. ”

"Of the 9,000 people now, one or less has died. The idea of adult training is to pass on the help. It is said that now that there are 9,000 people, some new recruits should be arranged to be sandwiched between them, so that there will be a continuous supply of energy. Otherwise, how can these people be replenished after they finish fighting? ”

His words were to the point, and Liu Yu was also quite helpless about this.

The military system of the imperial court was very problematic, and it cost money to raise soldiers.

Train some reserve soldiers on weekdays...... At this time, the organizational power can also organize the children of good families. In addition, some tenants have problems with eating, and letting them give up farm work to conduct training is tantamount to ruining their families.

Homesteaders are a little better, but the number of homesteaders is a problem.

It has its own national conditions.

The best way to do this is to recruit the victims. There are disasters and famines every year, and we are not afraid that there will be no disaster victims.

The question is whether the imperial court can come up with this money?

Dashun's fiscal revenue and expenditure can be said to be stretched, and the huge country has no money left, especially for disaster relief.

There was no solution to this matter for the time being, so Liu Yu had no choice but to say: "If this matter is to be solved, it depends on how well it is fought in the future." Playing well, everything is right, strategic, far-sighted; If you don't fight well, it's rhetoric and rhetoric. People, especially the ministers of the DPRK and China, are extremely realistic. ”

Liu Yu has his own ideas about this matter, but in the end, it is still the same sentence, there is a problem with Dashun's military system, and it is the entire military system that needs to be changed, not just one Qingzhou soldier.

Dashun does not need conscription, nor does it have the grassroots control of conscription, nor does it have the material conditions for conscription.

What is needed is the box army of the Great Song Dynasty.

The land is vast, and there are disasters every year, if there is only one 108,000 disaster victims in any year, you can simply go to the Temple of Heaven to say goodbye to the heavens.

The young and strong people among the victims were selected, and each of them was given a lower military salary, and some basic training such as queues and guns was done. Once the war starts, it will be replenished by picking people from it, and the number of soldiers is not a problem at all.

But even a minimum military salary must be fed.

Most of them must have no wives and children, but they don't always pop out of the cracks in the stones, and they have to support their parents.

If even my father and mother are not allowed to raise soldiers, then such soldiers will not have any combat effectiveness, and they can't all be like Liu Yu did in Shandong, and the whole family will die first.

This requires a thorough change in the military system, the elimination of a number of completely useless troops, and the release of military salaries to support them.

This matter is in a hurry, and it is useless to think about it now, so he said: "You can consider this matter, but your mind is still used for military training." ”

"I'm still the same sentence, if you can fight, it's useful to speak. This kind of military affairs will be considered after you are promoted in the future. As for whether or not he can be promoted, it depends on how well the military training is. ”

"This is a rare opportunity, and you must seize it. Not for me, but for yourselves. You know, you're still just a candidate officer, and you haven't been regularized yet. Do you understand? ”

All the staff officers stood up and said, "Understood." ”

"Okay, now that you understand, then continue training. If you have any questions, come to me. Because of the monsoon, after three or five months, the French will come again. I need to let them know that we are a meaningful ally. Hurry up. ”

"Yes!"

After they dispersed, Liu Yu did not go to see the army's drills. It's a slow integration process, and it's only a few months from being fed up to being put into training, and it's still going to take some time to see if it's combatable, so there's no need to look for problems now.

He still went to see the navy he cared about the most, even if the navy didn't even have a single warship at this time.

On the beach, on ropes and nets laid on the sand, a group of topless soldiers were practicing climbing ropes, and the officers shouted loudly below.

In the distance, several training ships were crowded with people, who were getting acquainted with seasickness.

On some dinghies, rowing is being practiced.

Most of the navy members were landlubbers, and even if they could swim, it was probably the first time they had been on board. But fortunately, most of the candidate officers were also landlubbers before, and they were full of patience for these soldiers who didn't know anything at all.

The proportion of alternate officers is very high, and the ratio of military training techniques to the number of sailors makes it so that each alternate officer and alternate non-commissioned officer only needs to train a dozen people.

Most of the officers in waiting were eagerly awaiting, waiting for the real battleship to arrive.

On the beach not far away, a group of sailors were resting for a short time, all of them were tired and tired, and the weather was still cold, but they were all lying on the beach and were unwilling to move.

Liu Yu walked over, and even if these sailors were reluctant, they all quickly got up and saluted.

In the crowd, Liu Yu saw a sailor he recognized, changed his name, and shouted: "Zhang Erbiao, come here." ”

Zhang Erbiao, who changed his name from Zhang Hu to Zhang Erbiao, heard that Liu Yu still remembered his name and hurriedly ran over.

After saluting, he called out to his lordship.

"How's it going, how do you feel?"

"Go back to your lordship, eat well and dress warmly. Although the daily drill is a little tiring, I am no longer seasick and can climb ropes. ”

"Well, that's good. I remember several of your brothers and sisters were here, right? ”

"Yes. It was chosen by Michael. The eldest brother Dabiao was not in the army, so he chose to go to Vladivostok; his younger brother Sanbiao worked as a drummer in the Qingzhou Army; The fourth sister is now in the Yixue School, and I saw it a few days ago, and she can already write her name. ”

Speaking of his sister's ability to write her name, Zhang Erbiao's face naturally showed a happy look, although he didn't recognize those words at all, but when he watched his sister draw out some words with a wooden stick on the beach, the mysterious feeling was really incomprehensible.

The more I don't recognize words, the more I feel that there is infinite magic in them.

At first, I was worried that my sister would be sold to the bustard, but I didn't expect that I really learned to read. The only thing that made him feel a little awkward was that boys and girls were reading together, which made him feel very strange.

It's hard to say anything, just thinking that I'm still young anyway, and when I'm older in the future, maybe I'll study separately.

Now the third brother is a drummer in the army, and the younger sister is also studying on the island, but the eldest brother is going to Vladivostok, which he has never heard of before.

He was already a little bold, and when he saw that Liu Yu still remembered his name, he boldly asked, "My lord, where is this Vladivostok?" Will I ever see my brother again in my life? ”

The policies were all set by Liu Yu, and he didn't answer this question directly, but asked with a smile: "Have you seen your sister-in-law?" ”

"See."

Whoever goes to the reclamation is married here. It's similar to matching livestock, the female victims who are recruited are numbered, lots are drawn, and whoever is drawn to the reclamation is whoever is drawn.

In the frontier land, there are more men and fewer women. If normal immigration passes, women will definitely give preference to those who sit on the local land rather than go to the land.

The soldiers on the other side of the Songhua River offered a very high price, and a woman could exchange a horse and a young and strong long-term worker for a cow.

Liu Yu is quite satisfied with this price, after all, in a famine year, a person may be worth four or five tortillas.

He relieved some people, and it didn't cost much money, and he arranged for people to open up the grain migration line from Vladivostok to the Songhua River and the Heilongjiang River estuary, and there was a shortage of large livestock. One person for one cow, and he is also responsible for transporting the cattle and horses to the designated place, which is simply a big profit.

Zhang Erbiao even felt that Liu Yu was benevolent and really a good official.

It was almost a dream to ask for a wife with their identity, but they didn't expect their cousin to draw a lot, and the age was just right, and it seemed that he was also able to give birth and work.

Speaking of this, he was a little grateful in his heart, but after all, he still cared about his cousin's whereabouts, waiting for Liu Yu to tell him where Vladivostok was.
