There is a big difference between the number of artillery pieces equipped by the Second Artillery Brigade and the Sixth Artillery Brigade, but it cannot be said that the Second Artillery Brigade is stronger than the Sixth Artillery Brigade, because the artillery of the Second Artillery Brigade is mainly composed of 100-mm cannons and 150-mm howitzers.

The artillery of the Sixth Artillery Brigade is dominated by 150-mm 30-caliber cannons and 150-mm 23-caliber field guns.

The Sixth Artillery Brigade of the South China Sea Prefecture has only more than 50 artillery pieces under its jurisdiction, but all the artillery pieces under the jurisdiction of this artillery brigade belong to 150-millimeter artillery, and the artillery belonging to one artillery regiment, more than 30 artillery pieces in a whole regiment, are all 150-millimeter cannons, and the other regiment is all 150-millimeter 23-fold field guns.

After this brigade was transferred to Jingzhou, in the early stage, it was directly deployed to the Quping Naval Base, and the other regiment was deployed to the river defense battery under the jurisdiction of the Jinghe estuary, which was used as a temporary shore fire prevention force.

However, this artillery brigade has not always been used as a shore defense artillery, but now the river defense of the Jinghe River is a bit weak, and the fortress artillery units at the mouth of the Jinghe estuary and the Quping Naval Base have not yet been formed, and the Sixth Artillery Brigade is only temporarily used as a coastal defense artillery.

After all, this artillery brigade is still a solid field artillery unit, and it will still be transferred to the battlefield in the future.

Although it is a bit exaggerated to say that a 150-mm cannon weighing more than ten tons was pulled to the battlefield and used as a field artillery.

In other countries, it is estimated that if you dare to do this, someone will spray you to death, but in Daheng, no one thinks it is strange.

Daheng people have always had a soft spot for large-caliber heavy artillery!

In addition, in the regular army of the Lin Dynasty Army of the Daheng Empire, there are also a number of fortress garrison regiments, all of which are river defense and coastal defense fortress troops, including Chongguangcheng Garrison Regiment, Luohaicheng Garrison Regiment, Nanfeng City Garrison Regiment, and the Dongguan City Garrison Regiment, Quping Garrison Regiment, which have just been established and have no trace of personnel and equipment.

These garrisons were also a mixture of infantry and heavy artillery, and were mainly garrisoned in the forts.

Many of the above-mentioned units have a large number of troops, but in fact many of them are not yet staffed, especially in terms of equipment, and many of them are seriously lacking.

For example, the Fifth Army Corps, although it seems that there are two armies, the Tenth Army and the Eleventh Army, and according to the establishment, there should be six divisional artillery regiments and two army-affiliated heavy artillery regiments, but in fact, the Fifth Army Corps' rear-loading rifled guns add up to more than 30 pieces, and they are all 75-millimeter guns of the early 51-year model that the Right Army has withdrawn, and even the rifling is almost worn out.

The troops are strong and weak, the main force can beat the enemy, and if the Fifth Army is enough to defend Ningyu Prefecture, this is also inevitable, after all, it is now the period of the Unification War, the focus is different, the Fifth Army Corps, which purely belongs to the defense of the two small countries in the south, is also very normal with general equipment.

However, even if the Fifth Army is weaker, it can be regarded as a regular army sequence, and it still belongs to the field army sequence, and it is still a good army in all aspects.

In the army system, there are also some local garrison units that are not field troops, which does not mean the garrison troops in the fortified areas, but the local garrison troops in the states.

It is mainly selected and reorganized from the soldiers in the surrender troops, and basically each batch of surrendered soldiers will be divided into three batches.

The soldiers selected in the first batch will be directly reorganized into field troops, that is, units similar to the 12th Army and the 13th Army.

The soldiers selected in the second batch were reorganized into local garrison units and garrison divisions in various states.

In the third batch, I don't pick it, and the rest of the brains are all packaged and organized into engineer divisions, building roads and bridges or helping to transport baggage, etc., basically used as civilian husbands, in fact, these engineering divisions are indeed just civilian men with the number of the army engineer division, in order to prevent these people from falling out of society and then harming the locality.

Among them, the second batch of garrison divisions reorganized by soldiers is actually very large, mainly responsible for suppressing places and suppressing bandits in the rear; protection of important factories such as arsenals, core steel plants, machinery factories, shipyards, etc.; Protect important transportation facilities such as bridges, railways, ports, etc.

However, although the number is huge, the army has always not included these garrison units in its combat plans, because after all, these units are poorly equipped and the comprehensive combat quality of the officers and men is inferior.

They are basically not equipped with rear-loading rifled guns, at most only some front-loading rifled guns, and at the same time, the rifles attached to them are mainly captured 18-mm modified rifled guns, and the soldiers are also selected to be leftover, and it is okay to maintain law and order in the rear with their tactical literacy, but it is too reluctant to go to the battlefield.

Even garrison divisions are not included in the battle plan, let alone engineer divisions, this thing is actually no different from the transport regiments and brigades formed by the logistics department to temporarily recruit civilians for some kind of campaign, and many engineer divisions are actually doing the same thing by these transport brigades.

Whether it is a garrison division or an engineer division, these are all helpless moves during the unification war, and the army has long wanted to renovate the garrison and engineer divisions.

It's just that now is a critical period for the unification war, and the military is still relatively cautious and unwilling to cause any trouble at such a critical moment, so it continues to maintain the status quo.

However, the army has already begun to formulate relevant plans to reform the above two types of troops as soon as possible after the war.

In this regard, Lin Ziran also supports the army's innovation plan, but he can't be in a hurry, at least before the end of the reunification war, he can't make a big move, and Lin Ziran needs to maintain stability in the rear.

We must not allow these hundreds of thousands of garrison divisions and engineer divisions to become chaotic.

Compared with the innovation of garrison divisions and engineer divisions, the key is now to unify the war, whether it is Lin Ziran himself or others, the current focus of work is to unify the war.

And the second important thing is to officially enter the Beijing Division.

At this time, it was already some time before the end of the Jingshi Campaign, and the Eighth Division carried out repeated sweeps of the Jingshi city and the surrounding areas, cleared out the remaining local routs, and completely smashed any organized and even scattered armed resistance in the local area.

At the same time, Zhao Laoqi led the patrol personnel who entered, followed the army units to carry out a large-scale law and order purge around the Jingshi city and the surrounding suburbs, and carried out a large-scale purge of local rebels.

Zhao Laoqi's work was excellent and effective, and after entering the Beijing Division with a large number of patrol police, with the cooperation and support of the troops, he arrested more than 30,000 diehard rebels, marked more than 160,000 potential rebels, and forcibly relocated these potential rebels from the capital to other areas.

By the way, he also returned more than 30 million Hengyuan in cash and a huge amount of fixed assets that could not be counted in a short period of time, which greatly improved the poor financial situation of the Lin Dynasty.

However, money is only secondary, and more importantly, these strong measures have greatly improved the security situation in Jingshi City and the surrounding suburbs.

After the current situation in Beijing has changed greatly, Lin Ziran led hundreds of civil and military officials to officially enter the Beijing Division, and the countdown has begun!
