Chapter 488: Awakening Soon

It's really outrageous.

As a master, Mu Guiying also raised his hand to cover his face, and he also felt very disdainful of the Great Demon King's behavior.

Dong Yu and Qingyi knotted Ghost Zhang with their mouths half open, looking at Wang Yan in shock, this seems to be ...... When did the Song people become so virtuous?

This is clearly a highly educated barbarian. I'm afraid that hooligans are educated.

Now that it has reached this point, the command is clear, and the Jishi Army is in charge of Wang Yang's farts and, kneeling down and saying: "Qiqi Xiao Wang Xianggong, the first phase of the Jishi Army has entered Zongcheng, is Xianggong reviewing now, or waiting for the follow-up troops to review together?" ”

Wang Yan was not busy reviewing the army, and walked down and patted Wang Yang on the shoulder: "The reason why your head is still there is not because your surname is Wang, but because I have already obtained the command I want, and after beating Lu Gongbi, my thoughts have been cleared." ”

Wang Yang couldn't help but bow his head in a cold sweat and said: "The crime of despicability deserves death, so that the time limit for the march has been delayed." ”

Wang Yan shook his head and said, "You are not guilty of this, because this is not under your control." If Lu Gongbi stays, I don't have a good idea, and I still need to be neutral in the war, then I will find a reason to behead you, not because of the delay in the march. Fortunately, after beating someone, I also got what I wanted, and my anger was not heavy. ”

Wang Yang lowered his head and did not speak.

Wang Yan said again: "From now on, you will be the deputy commander of the Volunteer Army, listed under Mu Guiying, and your troops will be fully taken over by the command and reorganized. Many of the original officers will step aside, and the former Funing Army will act as the entire command structure. I understand, it touches some people's interests, there will be conflicts. But I don't have time to talk about this on the battlefield, Wang Yang, tell me, how many officers do I have to kill in order to smoothly make the Funing Army and the Jishi Army run in? ”

Wang Yang said in a cold sweat: "Don't worry, don't worry about your subordinates, swear to urge your subordinates, do your best to cooperate with your reorganization, and complete the run-in as soon as possible, so as to achieve more great results for my Great Song Emperor." ”

"That being the case, I'm relieved."

When Wang Yan turned to sit down, he said lightly: "Ma Jinsi."

"Yes." Old Ma Lizheng.

"Take over the Jishi Army as soon as possible, and the officers and men of the former Funing Army will be fully stationed as a command structure. In principle, each person is temporarily promoted to one level, the original soldier is ten generals, the original ten will be the head of the capital, the original head of the capital will be the commander, and the commander will be promoted to the command, and so on. You will cooperate with and urge General Wang Yang to complete these tasks as soon as possible. If you have something, immediately ask General Mu Guiying to participate in the coordination, and if you can't solve it, don't fill your brain, and immediately ask me for instructions. Wang Yan said.

"Obey the Prime Minister's orders." Ma Jinxi said again: "What about the original officers of the Jishi Army? Do you want to stay in the army? If you stay, the old and new officers will be mixed, and there will be a lot of command troubles, causing the sergeants to not know who to listen to? ”

Wang Yan didn't want to think about it and said: "Nonsense, one mountain does not allow two tigers, there are nearly two thousand officers to fill in the blanks, of course two thousand officers must leave this unit." ”

Wang Yang couldn't help frowning, and said: "Xianggong Rongyu, after all, this is a complete Jishi Army, they are Lu Gongbi's subordinates, and they are the ...... of the forbidden army series."

Wang Yan raised his hand and stopped: "They are not Lu Gongbi's private soldiers but imperial court soldiers, and Lu Gongbi only has the power of military orders and no military power." I am one of the Privy Councillors of the Great Song Dynasty, responsible for the implementation of military policies and the ideological consciousness of officers. In the event of a war, I believe that these two thousand officers need to return to the Privy Council for ideological and quality re-education, with immediate effect, and return to Sanya for 'vocational training' within a period of 45 days. ”

Wang Yang and several other main officers of the Jishi Army couldn't help but be shocked, they had never seen such a big brain hole and such a ruthless one-size-fits-all?

It's a pity that as soon as Lu Gongbi was gone, this army lost its political armor, and Wang Yan's position really allowed him to do so.

Even Lu Gongbi, a good prime minister, was hospitalized on the spot by the Great Demon King, and according to the characteristics of the Great Song Dynasty officers who have no human rights, of course the officers will have emotions at this time, but if they have emotions, they have to go, and they can go to Sanya to cry and petition, but before there is a political statement, you really can't play tricks with the big devil here, because it will really lose your head. Everyone knows that he is a cool official by nature. At that time, he disagreed with the Dali River, confiscated the two battalions of the queen's cousin, and killed dozens of people.

The Great Demon King may be dealt with seriously because of these things, but now, he seems to have entered a state of broken jar and broken chicken blood, and he doesn't want anything else, he just wants to break through the barrier at all costs and win this war as soon as possible!

As a result, after more than 40 senior officers looked at each other in the commander's tent, no one dared to speak, and they left one after another to urgently implement the Great Demon King's policy of "laid-off officer retraining......

Everything was unexpected, when the Great Demon King's "Officer Layoff Retraining" policy was issued, as many as seventy percent of the officers of the Jishi Army had crooked smiles, and finally had a formal order to leave the battlefield. Frankly speaking, these pot-bellied guys mainly came to the army to receive wages and military rations to support their families, but they really didn't want to fight with the brave and warlike Western Xia barbarians.

In addition, objectively speaking, although Lu Gongbi's army is not as good as Han Qi, it is not too bad, and from this quick survey in the Jishi army, there is almost no resistance to replacing the command structure.

Judging from this, the degree of corruption in this army is not serious, which can be regarded as the credit of Lao Lu.

Obviously, if the army is excessively corrupt and has a serious work style of eating empty salaries and deducting military rations and salaries, there will be great resistance to replacing officers. Because it is not only like moving the position to investigate corruption, but also tantamount to suddenly cutting off their financial route.

But when the corruption was not serious, most of the officers did not have much oil and water in this army, and they were afraid that the Tangut people did not want to fight, so it was a good opportunity to drive them back to Bianjing for sightseeing and "study on public assignment" with their salaries.

As for the most low-level soldiers, no matter who leads them, it is almost the same, anyway, those who are soldiers must obey orders to go to the battlefield, and when there is a benefit, they are officers, which is the basic obligation and rule for thousands of years. And there is no need for additional in popular science.

On the whole, the big head soldiers have no human rights, and can only count on the wisdom of the commander to try to kill the lower level soldiers as little as possible, and on this basis, it would be better if the officers could care more about the big head soldiers.

So from this point of view, although the soldiers of the Jishi Army are generally nervous and afraid of fighting, they basically trust the Great Demon King.

After all, the Great Demon King has a lot of influence in the army from the resume of his achievements since his debut. In the era when they are all bastard commanders and soldiers have no human rights, most people in the Jishi Army are willing to believe for the time being: if you have to choose a commander to follow, win more battles and reduce grassroots casualties, it is obvious that following the Great Demon King is the best choice in this era.

The war has deepened to the present, and the Great Song Dynasty cannot be said to have an advantage. However, in the early stage, the Great Demon King's four crossings of the Huangshui, several times interspersed with heavy siege from the Western Xia, and the record of pulling more than 2,000 troops to fight thousands of miles, that is real, objectively speaking, everyone must admit: Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, no one has used such a low battle loss to achieve such a big result!

The big head soldier who is now being trained by the "instructors" believes that although the Great Demon King is generally hateful, if he follows him without a choice, the chances of survival are higher, and the chance of meritorious promotion is the greatest, and the promotion of his old team Funing Army is evidence.

Living in these multiple conditions, the prestige of the commander comes from performance, and the Great Demon King is blessed with unique resources in this regard, so the work of quickly reorganizing the Jishi Army is smoother than expected.

Wang Yan instructed the instructors: The energy of sharpening the guns in the battle must be concentrated on grasping politics and ideology. We should give them confidence, give them care, and teach them the basic qualities of obeying commands and acting in unison.

As for military quality, there is no way, the so-called skill must be practiced, and it must be accumulated bit by bit. These short periods of time can't be caught, and for the time being, there is not so much time and war horses for them.

However, as long as the ideological and political discipline is passed, Wang Yan believes that in the slow tug-of-war on the battlefield, they will slowly grow into elites with the subsequent deployment of flintlock pistols and field artillery.

Now that the troop has become larger, it is no longer the super elite who annihilated more than 10,000 people in Western Xia. Therefore, if the situation changes in the next step, and Zhuo Luolan starts a positional battle on the northern front of Huangshui, there will be no miracles of the Funing Army at the beginning.

Compared with Zhuo Luolan's army, this temporarily reorganized Jishi army must be backward in quality, and it is still an infantry configuration.

But the good thing is that the gap in the quality of war can be bridged with discipline and morale.

The gap in technique and tactics can be bridged with equipment such as flintlock pistols that will be deployed soon.

The gap in the number of troops can be compensated for by the "effective command" of the commander-in-chief.

So it can be seen that in the future, it is not yet known who killed the deer. Theoretically, it's a close contest.

Fu Bi's worries have some truth, once the power is evenly matched, it becomes a tug of war between national strength and time, in the case of the disaster of the Great Song Dynasty and the existence of the unstable factor of Liao, it is indeed very unfavorable.

But this battle Wang Yan must want to fight, because he will not lose anymore.

From the tactical level, a evenly matched battle is not cost-effective, but from the strategic level, after fighting this battle without losing, the Great Song Dynasty really has the elite that has always been an establishment.

With 20,000 elites in one compartment, such a force can already resist the Liao State at a critical moment. So this is accumulation, and it is the military strategy of the Great Song Dynasty.

If you want to be famous, there is no secret, you have to sweat blood.

The Hehuang battlefield is the final testing ground of the new army of the Great Song Dynasty, and once it graduates from here, this volunteer army is the awakening of the first formed iron army of the Great Song Dynasty......
