Although the little emperor did not conceal his military reform, Ying Jieyan did not expect that he would engage in such a big battle, which can be said to have subverted the three-hundred-year-old tradition of the Great Song Dynasty, and risked offending the entire Shilin to improve the status of the warriors. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info And he also knew that the little emperor had always been cautious in doing things, and there must be a reason for taking such a big risk this time, so he wanted to explore the root cause.

Zhao Yu is not stupid, of course he understands the old man's voiceover, and he knows that if he wants to carry out military reform, he must get the support of several gentlemen to persuade the ministers in the court. I know more that they have formed a community with him since the day they became their masters, and they can be the people they can trust and rely on the most, so they don't plan to hide it from them, and then say what they think.

Since its own establishment, it has been in a state of wandering, and there is no long-term plan at all. And Zhao Yu is the same, he also sees the move, and everything he does is to save his life. At present, the Yuan army has defeated several attacks in succession and quelled the chaos, so it can be said that it has gained a firm foothold in Qiongzhou, so it is not possible to act with a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west, but to have a long-term plan.

Needless to say, 'Restoration of the country' is the highest goal of the Xing Dynasty, and all work must be done around it. It's not just Zhao Yu, I'm afraid everyone knows that if you want to restore the country, it will not be possible to succeed overnight, it is likely to take ten years, eight years, or even longer, and many people may find it difficult to return to Bianliang for the rest of their lives. So since you can't eat a fat man in one bite, you must have a plan and advance towards the goal step by step.

The foundation of the restoration of the country is the economic foundation, and strong economic capacity is the foundation on which all countries can gain a foothold, so as to provide a guarantee for a strong military strength; At present, only by building a sufficiently strong army can we maintain the base areas and maintain economic development, and we can only fight out after accumulating sufficient strength.

Of course, Zhao Yu didn't want to do this, if he said that he would attack the counterattack tomorrow, he would want to take down Dadu and kill Kublai Khan, because the pressure he was carrying was too great, not only because he was only a descendant of the Zhao family, but he was also the lord of all peoples. However, the objective law will not be broken because of subjective wishes, he is facing the most powerful enemy of the Han nation in Chinese history, it is not easy to defeat them, otherwise the War of Resistance against Japan would not have been fought for more than ten years, on the other hand, the situation at that time was a hundred times better than his own. It's similar to Wanwan, but they have been shouting **** for decades, but they are still shouting until now.

Compared with the Mengyuan Dynasty, the current Xing Dynasty and the Mengyuan Dynasty, not to mention the population, region, and economy, even the army itself is difficult to match, and these battles can be won by themselves, but it does not mean that they can still win in the future. Because his army still has many fatal shortcomings, if it is not changed, let alone defeating Meng Yuan, it will be good if it is not swallowed up by others.

First of all, in addition to being inferior to the Yuan army in terms of combat effectiveness, the current Song army is still in a backward state in terms of conventional weapons, in addition to occupying some advantages in equipment. Now, in addition to consumables such as arrows, most of the armor and even warships are maintained by capture, and the work of the capital is more about tinkering than manufacturing. The production of muskets and artillery weapons is still very low, and there is still a long way to go to form combat effectiveness.

On the other hand, the quality of the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty was also very problematic, of course, Zhao Hao did not dare to expect them to have knowledge and consciousness, but the physical fitness and training of the soldiers were difficult to meet the standard of qualification. When the army was first established, he found that the volunteers and officers assigned to him were weak to march, and the main reason was that they were in a state of semi-starvation, which was not only in a state of turmoil, but also due to poor logistics and supply work, it was difficult to raise enough military rations, resulting in frequent food shortages.

When facing the risk of running out of food, Zhao Yu also found that more than half of the soldiers were weak, and they looked like idiots and unworthy coaches. And Zhao Mengjin and Liu Zhu have proposed to themselves more than once that they should send soldiers who can be trained to form another army, ensure that the diet is concentrated and trained, and the rest will be taken care of by each team.

When he was in Yashan, Zhao Yu found that the suggestions made by Zhao Mengjin and others at the beginning were a common phenomenon, even if the Huai Army was the main force, and the selected strong soldiers could only barely eat enough, and the other officers and soldiers were just starving to death. That's why when he hunted whales and distributed the meat to the armies, his situation immediately changed.

And when the Xing Dynasty moved to Qiong, Zhao Yu has been letting the forbidden army in front of the palace carry out training, in fact, he is raising soldiers, supplementing nutrition and restoring physical strength with good food and drink every day, and training is in a secondary position. As a result, when defending the previous battle, he did not dare to put them on the front line, but used them as a reserve to prevent them from being defeated at the first blow and missing a major event.

In addition, everyone knows that the standard of the modern military generally refers to troops equipped with hot weapons, strict military discipline, and a perfect logistical support system. At present, although Zhao Hao has worked hard to ensure that the officers and men eat and drink well, and has formulated food standards and a series of related systems, due to poor logistics and supply work, he has increased a lot of miscellaneous chores for the soldiers, which has encroached on the training time.

According to Zhao Hao's observation and statistical reports, ordinary troops take about 10 days a month to receive grain and grass, carry them, collect wood, and process raw grain, and a soldier under command often allocates one-third of his manpower to regularly engage in miscellaneous work. As a result, many of the recruits who entered the camp were not adequately trained, and they could not even distinguish the orders, and this was only when there was no fighting on a normal day.

During the war, there were organized civilians to help transport grain and grass and military supplies, but this was due to the short transportation distance of the local war and the assistance of the local government, which could barely guarantee the supply. Once the battle on the island is difficult, the northern army encountered it, Wen Tianxiang repeatedly said in the report that the logistics can not meet the military requirements, and ordinary people will avoid it. However, the old regime has collapsed, and it is difficult to establish a new regime, and it is impossible to effectively recruit people to accompany the army, resulting in many difficulties in the army's transportation of grain, straw, and materials. As a result, the seized materials can only be destroyed on the spot, or allowed to be moved by the people, and it is difficult to transfer them back to Qiong.

Therefore, in the current military reform, Zhao Yu specially set up a baggage and heavy military department in charge of logistics, so as to establish a perfect logistics support system in peacetime and wartime, so that the army can obtain basic livelihood, training, and the supply of combat materials under all conditions. He even thought of adopting commercial operations and subcontracting some work to some powerful and capable businesses.

In addition to these, there is another issue that cannot be ignored and cannot be ignored. Most of the ordinary soldiers of the Song army were peasant children, they were docile, disciplined, able to bear hardships and stand hard work, obey commands, and were very malleable.

The former system of replenishing and selecting officers of the Song army had disappeared with the defeat, and in the case of the Shuaifu Army that they had single-handedly formed, the rank and file officers were appointed on the basis of trust, not talent, and many of them were villagers with hoes to farm the land a few days ago, or squires and landlords, but when they picked up their swords and guns, they became generals who led the troops into battle.

It is true that some of them have a certain military foundation or the talent of leading troops, and more can only accumulate experience in constant actual combat and management of troops, but this is still difficult to change the overall decline of the army. By himself, even if the situation of the other armies is better, Zhao Yu feels that there will not be much difference.

Similarly, the quality of middle and senior officers is also very worrisome, and the operational operations of command organs at and above the battalion level are extremely unsound. It can be said that there is no operation and sand table education on the map, and the exercises of the command post and staff officers are completely neglected, and there is neither a specific operation plan nor a complete combat order. Therefore, as soon as the army arrives at the battle, there are inexplicable problems, forming a strange phenomenon that the officers are not as good as the soldiers.

Many of the staff members of the commanders of the various armies have no military background, but most of them are the personal individuals of the commanders. Often, important positions are given to some outdated military officers or civilian people who are not trained in military affairs. However, the military leadership department does not have special professional training, and those who join the army and the staff do not know how to manage personnel and calculate the consumption of baggage supplies. As for the officials in some auxiliary departments, they are more indiscriminate, and they don't even have the common sense to manage and inspect items.

In addition, the Song army's command and coordination system was disorganized and almost disorganized. According to the procedures of the military command system, as the emperor, Zhao Hao only needs to issue orders to the Privy Council, but he has to skip the command, some big battles, he not only has to personally plan in advance, but also has to personally command when initiating battles, not only to command the armies, but even directly to the battalion level, under special circumstances, he also has to personally put on the battle.

It is precisely because Zhao Yu personally interrogated every detail that the commanders of all units did not dare to make their own opinions, or in order to shirk their responsibilities, they all asked for instructions to carry out the incident. As a result, officers at all levels did not dare to disobey and were willing to carry it out, resulting in a lack of awareness of autonomous operations and the ability to maneuver and respond to changes among the officers at the front. He also has a reputation for being like a god and wise and brave. But he knew that this was extremely abnormal, and he could still take care of it now, but what about the future?

Zhao Hao was very aware of the current situation, after he won successive victories in water battles and the Northern Army swept Liangguang, in the case of Kublai Khan's use of troops against Annam and Japan, the Yuan army would no longer easily use troops against Qiongzhou, but would take a defensive position. In this way, there was a rare blank period, and he had to use this time to complete the transformation of the army, and build the actively defensive Song army into an offensive army.

However, although we all know that any powerful army in ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, cannot fight without teaching; All talented military strategists know how to run the army before the school, and first of all, they must train and train military cadres and talents. An important task of the military department this time is to establish a military academy to train officers, lay the foundation for the strategic transformation of the Song army, and achieve the goal of enhancing combat effectiveness.

Zhao Yu's plan was to use two years to complete rotational training for the grassroots officers of the Song army to improve their tactical command ability; Middle- and high-ranking officers complete training in campaign organization and command and combined operations; At the same time, ordinary soldiers should be educated in patriotism, loyalty, and military discipline, and should also complete basic training in the armed forces, master the weapons of the armed forces to which they belong, and strengthen coordinated training with other armed forces.

Then, a year was used to expand and reequip part of the army in a planned way, to build several corps that completely used hot weapons to fight, and then began to carry out local counteroffensives, launching a series of small campaigns to annihilate the enemy's living forces, and gaining actual combat experience; Two years later, the refitting of all the main forces was completed, and the coordinated training of all branches of the armed forces and the campaign drills of the large army corps were launched. Waiting for the opportunity to launch a major counteroffensive and launch a full-scale war for the restoration of the country......

Ying Jieyan listened to the little emperor's eloquent conversation, and suddenly felt that he was no longer his master, but a student of His Majesty. The idea is very clear, the purpose of the military reform is extremely clear, and the proposed plan is also operable. And many of them have new words and unique insights that they have never heard of, and the departments set up are also very targeted, which makes people feel refreshing, and it is obviously a lot of thought.

Look at the model of the training camp of the new army on the bookcase of the little emperor, and the formation and training plan of the new army are piled up on the side. However, Ying Jieyan can see that its 'ambition' is not small only from the distribution map of the new army's barracks model, which is not only a large area, but also fully functional, divided into living areas, teaching areas and training areas. There are three large and small martial arts exercise grounds alone, covering all specialties of the four branches of the armed forces: infantry, cavalry, baggage, and artillery, and it is equipped with a special training area, and there is also a gun and artillery range outside the battalion.

said that it was a military camp, but Ying Jieyan was an old driver, and he saw through the conspiracy of the little emperor at a glance, which was clearly a martial arts school that he had been talking about for a long time. Your Majesty is in the case of the blockage of the establishment of martial arts, in the name of running a new army, bypassing the imperial court, ready to go it alone. Cultivate a new type of military talent, and use these protégés to replace the current middle and lower-level officers of various armies on the occasion of changing their uniforms, and then break the mountains that stand tall in the army, and firmly hold the military power in their own hands.

Ying Jie Yan thought about it carefully, and felt that this child's scheming was really unfathomable, like a clever chess player who fell quietly, seemingly unremarkable, but in fact, every move was calculated and laid out a shocking game. But he was still faintly worried, the little emperor must still be young, and it was inevitable that he would be arrogant and feel that everything was in his calculations. But where is there smooth sailing in doing things, once the implementation is blocked or not smooth, it will hit its enthusiasm and frustrate its spirit, and I will definitely help His Majesty to promote this matter, even if it offends Shilin......
