is worthy of being a prime minister in another time and space, Zhang Jiuling only took two days to find out the general situation of Broken Leaf Town. From the third day, as the mayor of Broken Leaves, he began to assist the town guard Zhang Qian in handling daily affairs. Immediately, it took two more days to sort out the terms of responsibility between the various departments. On the seventh day, the workload that Zhang Qian needed to deal with was reduced by a small half.

Finally caught someone who could work, and he didn't know how long the other party could work under him, of course Zhang Qian would not be polite to Zhang Jiuling. simply, the heavy task of preparing food and grass materials for the expeditionary Turkic army was also thrown to him. He concentrated all his energies on dealing with the affairs that had been put down by the army and the weapons manufacturing side.

"In the teaching regiment, Lu Dechuan, He Guangsha and others, who performed well in the battle of Shiguo, were assigned to be the brigade leader, and the team was basically promoted to a higher level in accordance with their current positions. The other brothers who had made meritorious contributions and shown bravery in the battle against Shiguo, regardless of whether they belonged to the Broken Leaf Battalion or the Fine Willow Battalion, were transferred to the teaching regiment and handed over to Zhang Si'an and several of their brigades to lead the old with the new. Later, this became a common practice. ”

His gaze quickly swept over the faces of the generals and civilians under his command, and Zhang Qian announced his decision in a loud voice.

The teaching regiment system is effective, and the brothers of the teaching regiment have a significantly stronger sense of belonging to the Broken Leaf Army than the Broken Leaf Battalion. Therefore, he is ready to regard the teaching regiment as his "Whampoa Military Academy". I don't expect to be able to train a few peerless generals, at least gradually replace the original grassroots of the Broken Leaf Battalion and the Fine Willow Battalion with several layers of trained officers from the Teaching Regiment, so that the Broken Leaf Army as a whole can move closer to a professional army in another time and space.

All the captains and soldiers claimed to be so. There were no objections. The army is a place where the results of the war are spoken, and who can do and who does not is based on their performance on the battlefield. Although the Broken Leaf Army has always been overwhelmed in the operation of conquering the Stone Country. However, the gap between the other departments and the teaching group, especially the departments under the old Broken Leaf Battalion, and the gap between the teaching group, can still be clearly seen by everyone.

If there is a gap, you have to find a way to catch up. Otherwise, they will be taught to fall farther and farther away. And Broken Leaf Town, with this expansion of territory, has obviously entered a rising period. Whether it is Zhang Qian, the town guard, or the generals and civilians of Broken Leaf Town, the future is bright. At this time, if anyone in the singing crowd falls behind, or does not want to forge ahead, he will definitely regret it in the future.

"On Zhang Changshi's side, it will take about six days to prepare the grain and grass before the expedition. And the march from Broken Leaf Town to Yanpo Prefecture took about fifteen days. Not only did he want to bring the grassroots team and brigade leaders back to another place, but Zhang Qian also did not intend to let them grow "freely" for officers above the rank of lieutenant. After a pause, he commanded in a loud voice, "During these twenty-one days, the chief and deputy captains of each regiment, except for the chief and deputy captains of the teaching regiment, shall perform their respective duties during the day. After the evening, from the time of the time to the time of the sea, all of them went to the Chinese army for training. Everyone must learn to use all the weapons that the Leaf Crushing Army has in their possession, from projection vehicles and fire dragon vehicles to grenades. ”

"Yes!" All the generals agreed in unison again. Some were ecstatic, others were sad.

The power of gunpowder bullets, dragon carts and grenades is obvious to all. The town guard envoy ordered all the captains and lieutenants to learn to use these three magic weapons, and it was obvious that these three magic weapons would be equipped in large quantities for each regiment in the future. From then on, the brothers will surely be strengthened.

However, when the new weapons are popularized in large quantities, the unique skills of some generals and colonels will be useless. And the combat method of the Broken Leaf Army will soon face a big change. If someone learns too slowly, or isn't adaptable, they'll inevitably be replaced by up-and-comers.

"Also, after the captains of each regiment returned, they worked hard to select tall soldiers, strong strength, and good at throwing from their respective commands, and reported them to Secretary Luo Zhang. He plans to form a separate grenadier team to be used as a surprise soldier in the future. ”

The answers were still neat, and the expressions on everyone's faces were still happy and worried. The emergence of new classes can make the Broken Leaf Army as a whole more powerful. However, tall and powerful soldiers, no matter which team or group they are in, are the core of combat effectiveness. Draining them out in large numbers will inevitably affect the team's combat effectiveness.

"In recent days, the daily training of the regiments has not been slackened. At least fully armed every day, ride a horse twenty miles round trip. The next expedition to the Turks, our army may not have too many hard battles. However, the journey is bound to be very hard. ”

"Military discipline must be strict, but the town guard reiterates it again. The punishment for non-commissioned soldiers, in non-war times, must be through the clear law to join the army. The execution of any soldier must be reported to the town guard for review. Before the examination is completed, the captains of each regiment are not allowed to do it without authorization, otherwise they will be punished for the crime of indiscriminate homicide of innocent people. ”

"This expedition to the Stone Country, the seizures assigned to each person can be concentrated and sold at the Six Gods Trading House. Or sell it to other vendors in the city, who has what they have, and who makes their own decisions, including the price at which it is sold. ”

"The lieutenants of each regiment remember to inform their brothers that if they want to send goods, letters or money to their families in the Central Plains, they can also entrust them to the Liushen Trading House. On the fifteenth day of each month, the firm will send a team back to Chang'an on time, regardless of whether it receives enough goods in its hands or not. ”

"The summer harvest is imminent, and the harvest of all the tuntian fields under the names of the soldiers will be stored in the granary. Tuntian will write the specific number on paper as a voucher and distribute it to everyone. Everyone can take all of them with the voucher, or take some of them as needed. Tuntian's side of joining the army only helps everyone enter and exit the warehouse, and will not interfere. ”

……

Zhang Qian noticed the expressions of the generals, but he didn't have time to explain to everyone one by one. Just follow the plan discussed with Luo Huaizu, Zhou Jianliang, Wang Han and other core figures, and announce the decisions one by one.

As long as firearms appear, it is only a matter of time before they become widespread in the military. Some old habits of mind and modes of warfare must be adjusted accordingly. Only when the thinking patterns and combat habits of the generals and the firearms can be adapted to each other, can the power of firearms be brought into full play. Otherwise, no one dares to guarantee that one day the Tang army will repeat the tragedy of the official army at the end of the Ming Dynasty, equipped with bird guns and heavy artillery, and will be beaten and fled by a group of wild men in the mountains and forests who can only shoot arrows and ride horses.

When all the decisions were announced, the generals and colonels below let out a long breath in unison, and the happiness in their hearts far outweighed the worries.

It is true that Zhang Zhenshou has high requirements for everyone, but Zhang Zhenshou's ability to make meritorious contributions and make money is also rare in the world. As soon as Shi Guo walked down, everyone's officials and honors rose a lot, not to mention the wealth they shared, far exceeding their expectations. Coupled with the food that Tuntian Division collected for everyone, even if he is injured and retired now, it is more than enough to be a rich man. (Note: Tang Dynasty officials were divided into positions, scattered officials and honors.) The position is the actual position, and the loose official is the title of rank, and the vacancy can be filled at the same level. Xun is an honorary title. ）

"In the shop under the name of the Six Gods Trading Bank, in the future, all the soldiers of Broken Leaf Town, whether they are officers or non-commissioned officers, as long as they show their waist cards when purchasing items, they can directly get a 20% discount." Knowing that cultivating an army that will win all battles cannot rely only on advanced weapons and strict military discipline, Zhang Qian thought about it and threw out a new policy. "This decree is valid for all the shops under the name of the Six Gods Trading Houses in the world, whether it is in the Western Regions or in Chang'an. Even if you want to buy a car plow, you can also ask the shopkeeper to discount it. ”

"Thank you, Keeper!"

"The Guardian is mighty!"

"The town guard envoy Marquis Wandai!"

……

In an instant, there was a thunderous cheer in the council hall, and all the generals and colonels were smiling. The general school with a special family in the Gyeonggi area knew what kind of sought-after items were sold in the Liushen Trading House, and he couldn't wait to dance on the spot.

"When you return, make this decree known to all the brothers." Zhang Qian's own mood was also infected by everyone, and he added loudly with a smile. "Secretary Luo, Sishi Wang joined the army and stayed, and the rest of the people dispersed!"

"Yes!" Everyone had long been accustomed to the fresh words that came out of Zhang Qian's mouth from time to time, and they all bowed their hands in unison, and then happily retired. After a short time, only Zhang Qian, Luo Huaizu and Wang Maobo were left in the hall, and the entire hall immediately became empty.

"Whew-" Seeing everyone leave, Zhang Qian exhaled a long breath.

The time was too urgent, Zhang Jiuling took the initiative to stay in Broken Leaf to help, so that he was like a fish in water. However, it was also a clear reminder that the turbulent period was getting closer and closer, leaving him less and less time to prepare.

If he is just a rich man at the moment, of course, he can hide in the countryside and laugh at the changes in Chang'an City as he hoped when he first arrived. However, more than two years ago, he was unable to stay out of the situation.

If the only bit of historical knowledge in his memory had not been discreet, not long after Li Xian's death, Princess Taiping led the Li royal family to launch a coup d'état in the name of avenging Li Xian. Empress Wei was killed by surprise, and everyone who followed Empress Wei closely, including the arrogant but brainless Princess Anle, all died.

Two years ago, fortunately, he did not become the husband of Princess An Le. However, unfortunately, he also offended Princess Taiping to death.

Although Li Xian did not promote him to the rank this time, he will cleverly find an excuse to remove Yang Qingxun from the team of relatives and allow the Yang family to choose a son-in-law for his grandson to marry. The hidden purpose behind it must be clearly guessed by many people in Chang'an City.

And Zhang Qian himself, while being grateful to Li Xian, saw more and more clearly that he and Princess Taiping were already incompatible.

Empress Wei may not follow Li Xian's arrangement and regard him as a confidant and arm. But with Princess Taiping's heart, she will definitely regard him as an enemy. In case Princess Taiping took power, she would take revenge on him at all costs. Zhang Qian can rely on it, I'm afraid that in addition to the Six Gods Trading House, there is only the Broken Leaf Army.

With the gunpowder bullets and black powder already handed over, he must race against time to build the musket. Even if you spend money to pile up a team of musketeers, it's better than letting someone slaughter them at that time!
