In this military system reform, the problem of detailed establishment is not a big one, because except for Li Xuan himself, in fact, other people do not care much about whether it is a team of ten people or a team of thirty people.

Because if it is only a change in the organization, it will not have much impact on their own power.

What they are really concerned about is that after the change in the establishment, the candidates for the captains and vice-presidents of each team, and more importantly, the commanders of the new army.

In the past, the Standing Army of the Tang Dynasty had a total of five armies, left and right, and the Zhenxi Army, all of which fought separately, and Fang Dongquan, Huang Xueren, Chen Butcher, Bai Yunqi, and Cai Erhu each served as the commanders of the first army.

However, now it is necessary to abolish these five independent armies and consolidate them into one large army.

Then they have to worry about whether their power will be weakened!

So, when everyone said they had no opinion on the detailed formation, and also proposed to add six more troops under each team, the chamber fell silent again.

Because everyone knows that the next time is for everyone to discuss the candidates for each team and the commander of the new army, the newly established new army needs a general to command, and the following teams also need competent candidates to serve as team leaders.

Looking at their silence, Li Xuan didn't worry too much, he had been preparing for a long time for today, and he already had a set of plans in his heart, and even at least two sets of preparatory plans had been prepared.

He didn't believe it, he was a modern man in the 21st century, and he couldn't play these illiterate bandit leaders.

However, the silence in the council hall did not last long, and soon claimed to be the head of the hundred officials, Liu Bagou, who had just been awarded the title of scholar of the Zhongji Temple and the head of the household department three days ago, came out and said: "Now that the new army has just been established, a general is urgently needed to take charge of the new army, stabilize the morale of the army, and train and prepare for war!" ”

At this time, Wang Wenhua and Qian Mengjiu both said one after another: "The minister seconded the proposal!" ”

For the three of them, whoever is the commander of the new army will not have much impact on them, anyway, they can't meddle in the military power, so it is better to settle down and prepare for the Ming army with peace of mind.

But their words made Fang Dongquan and several of their generals change their faces slightly.

At this time, Bai Yunqi once again came out and said: "What Lord Liu said is very true, the personnel of the new army needs to be decided as soon as possible!" Speaking of this, he paused, then glanced at Fang Dongquan, and they said: "Although my Tang Dynasty Wang Division is as fierce as a cloud, but when it comes to strategic vision, only General Fang can serve as the commander of the new army!" ”

When Fang Dongquan heard this, he didn't show any happy look, but waved his hand: "How can I be the commander of the new army, I think Huang Dacai is the most suitable!" ”

However, Huang Xueren also postponed: "General Fang, you have enough prestige and deep qualifications, you are the commander of the new army, and the big guy is served!" ”

Watching them postpone, Li Xuan frowned slightly.

Bai Yunqi recommended Fang Dongquan to be the commander of the new army, which was naturally arranged by Li Xuan, there are three reasons for Li Xuan to do this, on the one hand, Fang Dongquan's prestige and qualifications are indeed the deepest among the generals, and he is worthy of the name to be the commander of the new army.

Second, he wants to exacerbate the contradictions and conflicts between Fang Dongquan, Huang Xueren and Butcher Chen, everyone is of equal status on weekdays, and now Fang Dongquan, you have run to Huang Xueren's head, and Huang Xueren is convinced? I definitely don't accept it!

And the third, and most important, is to want to lift the person high in order to empty him.

As for how to overhead? Li Xuan also plans to set up a number of deputy marshals in the new army, and the candidates for these deputy marshals don't need to guess to know who they will be, that is, Chen Butcher, Bai Yunqi, Cai Erhu and a few others.

The point is that Li Xuan intends to let the deputy marshal directly serve as the captain of the following teams.

In this way, it is very likely that the commander-in-chief of the whole army who is high above will be overthrown by the deputy commanders who hold the real power of each team below.

In other words, Li Xuan just wanted to strip Fang Dongquan of the opportunity to directly control the grassroots soldiers!

Of course, if it weren't for Fang Dongquan, but if Huang Xueren was replaced as the commander of the new army, Li Xuan would be acceptable, anyway, no matter who went up to be the commander, Li Xuan estimated that in the end, he would be overshadowed by others.

And Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren are the most powerful, their left and right armies have swelled to the scale of 100 people after defeating Jiguan Mountain, Black Tiger Village, and Huang Guishan, and the left and right armies of the two of them occupy two-thirds of the total strength of the Datang Standing Army.

So don't be able to overhead Fang Dongquan or Huang Xueren, it's a good thing for Li Xuanli.

But Li Xuan prides himself on being smart and secretly buries mines, but people are not stupid, whether it is Fang Dongquan or Huang Xueren, they are all postponed, they may not be able to see all Li Xuan's intentions, but they will definitely guess that the commander of the new army that Li Xuan made looks very beautiful, but it is not a good errand.

Seeing that they were each shirking, and the tone of the postponement was extremely tough, this made Li Xuan have to give up his previous plan, it seemed that it was too difficult to put one of them in the air, so he simply gave up this idea.

Therefore, he immediately spoke: "It is indeed difficult to make a decision easily because the commander of the new army has a heavy responsibility, and each team will be responsible for the subsequent training of the formation of the new army, so the commander will discuss it later." However, the choice of commander can be postponed and discussed, but the deputy commander and the candidates of each team cannot be delayed! ”

This time, Li Xuan did not let Bai Yunqi act as a pawn, but personally spoke: "If the deputy marshal is spoken, General Fang, General Huang, General Chen, General Bai, and General Cai are all appointed. ”

With this sentence, he put all the generals in the hall except for Wang Danxu, the commander of the Guards, as a deputy marshal.

And without giving everyone time to think about it, he continued: "The next team leaders and team vice-presidents, can you Aiqing be recommended by anyone?" ”

Since it was impossible to put one of Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren in the air, Li Xuan adopted the second plan, that is, to press all five people to the title of deputy marshal, but in the first plan, Li Xuan was ready to let the deputy marshal concurrently serve as the head of each team, but now this second plan is not.

In fact, whether it is the previous plan or the current plan, although there are many differences, they all have the same purpose, that is, to try to no longer let Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren directly control the army, even if the team below is their henchmen, it is better than them to control it personally.

But even if these team leaders and team deputies are Fang Dongquan's henchmen, people always have their own ideas, Li Xuan is making some small moves behind his back, and he can't win them over if he doesn't believe it.

If you want to win over people, there is nothing that cannot be done by an official position, and if there is, then give a bigger official position!

And Datang lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of official positions!
