Chapter 286: Army Reform!

Nan Haixing, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, looked happy, and hurriedly knelt down and thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

"The Ministry of Industry has a great responsibility, remember, I give you twenty years, the railway must cover the entire empire, and every county and city must be connected to a railway!" Zhao Cheng admonished.

"Obey the order!" The South China Sea Trip was handed over.

"Where is the military department?" Zhao Cheng called softly!

"The minister is here!" Zhang Chuanzhi, the secretary of the military department, replied.

"I have decided to carry out military reform, and the previous military system is a little backward!" Zhao Cheng said softly.

At the same time that the empire is strong, any system must be improved, otherwise the outside is strong and the middle is strong, and at present, hot weapons have become the mainstream, and the former army system is only suitable for cold weapons.

Hearing the military reform, Zhang Chuanzhi couldn't help frowning, in his opinion, the army of the Great Qin Empire is good, why should it be reformed, there is no need at all.

"I don't know how Your Majesty will change it?" Zhang Chuanzhi asked with curiosity on his face.

"It used to be a team of five people, ten people, fifty people, a hundred people, etc., but now it has been changed to ten people as a platoon, with one platoon commander, one deputy platoon leader, eight riflemen, one machine gunner, one mortar gunner, a total of twelve people in a platoon!"

"Three platoons are companies, with a company commander, a deputy company commander, and a company of 38 people, three companies are battalions, with a battalion commander and a deputy battalion commander, and a mortar company directly under the battalion, with 154 people in the battalion!"

"The three battalions are regiments, with a regimental commander, a deputy regiment commander, and a regiment-level political commissar, and an infantry artillery battalion directly under the regiment, the infantry artillery battalion consists of 12 flying elephant cannons, 112 artillery, artillery battalion commander, deputy battalion commander, a total of 114 artillery battalions, and 579 people in the whole regiment.

"The three regiments are brigades, with a brigade commander, a deputy brigade commander, and a brigade-level political commissar, and a fire regiment, three battalions of the fire regiment, one battalion is a machine gun battalion, the second battalion is a mortar battalion, and the third battalion is a bazooka battalion, in addition to the fire regiment, there is an infantry artillery regiment and a brigade-level field medical hall, 100 field doctors, and 3,000 people in the whole brigade!"

"The three brigades are divisions, with a division commander, a deputy division commander, and a division-level political commissar, two fire regiments, an infantry artillery brigade, a brigade-level field medical hall, 400 field doctors, and 11,600 people in the division!"

"The three divisions are armies, and there are army commanders......... The whole army is 35,000 people, this is the army establishment, and at the same time, the infantry army will be changed to the army! ”

Zhao Cheng grunted and put out all the new army formations.

After hearing this, Zhang Chuanzhi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was a little confused, and he couldn't remember what Zhao Cheng said at all.

Zhao Cheng saw Zhang Chuanzhi's expression, a little speechless, co-author Lao Tzu said this, you didn't understand a word, but this can be understood, after all, this compilation is a bit advanced, "That's it, I will personally write down the compilation later, and you will do it when the time comes!" ”

"Yes!" Zhang Chuanzhi bent down a little ashamedly and responded.

This compilation is actually very simple, just remember three times three times three........

"Not only the reform of the military establishment, but also the .................... of military ranks" Zhao Cheng said the rank system one by one, since it is necessary to reform, it is necessary to reform the big point, the military rank system is a good way to stimulate, I believe that after the implementation of the military rank system, there will be soldiers in order to improve the rank, bravely kill the enemy!

The military rank system covers not only the infantry army, but also the sailors!

The ranks of officers are divided into the following three ranks and ten grades.

(1) Generals: generals, lieutenant generals, and major generals;

(2) Officers: colonels, colonels, lieutenant colonels, and majors;

(3) Lieutenants: Captains, lieutenants, and second lieutenants.

Platoon-level officers are generally second lieutenants, lieutenants, and company-level officers are lieutenants and captains, battalion-level officers are captains, majors, lieutenant colonels, regimental-level officers are majors, lieutenant colonels, and colonels, brigade-level officers are colonels, divisional officers are colonels and major generals, and army-level officers are major generals and lieutenant generals.

Above the military level, it is the theater of operations, Zhao Cheng is preparing to set up twenty-five theaters, all over the borders of the Great Qin Empire, and the theater has a commander-in-chief and a deputy commander-in-chief, with the commander-in-chief being a general and the deputy commander-in-chief being a lieutenant general.

Each theater has jurisdiction over six armies, about 200,000 people, and the national strength is 5 million, and at the same time as the establishment of 25 theaters, five military departments have also been established, each of which has jurisdiction over five theaters, and the supreme commander of the military department is the chief of staff of the military department, and the military rank is senior general!

At the same time as the establishment of the military department, the army general command center was also established, which governed the five major military departments, and the supreme commander was the chief of the general staff and the field marshal!

Zhao Cheng was full of joy and took out the military reform plan completely, and the civil and military officials were stunned when they heard it, and only the military attachés from the system could understand the meaning.

Fang Xin stood up from the civil official queue and said in a respectful tone: "Your Majesty, if this is the case, then who will be the chief of the general staff?" ”

The power of the chief of the general staff is too great, and he controls the military power of the whole country, so Fang Xin has to be cautious!

Before saying this, many officials have already guessed who.

"Hussar General, Duke Gaogong!" Zhao Cheng confided without hesitation.

Gao Gong and Le Huan are the first batch of commanders to follow themselves, the system was born, the strength is the late day after tomorrow, the life expectancy is high, and loyalty, with him, the army of the Great Qin Empire will always be in his own hands, if it weren't for Le Huan's accidental death, the chief of staff will definitely let Le Huan dang, and Gao Gong will stay on Pandora Star.

Zhao Cheng had already thought about it, the commanders of the twenty-five theaters, half of the commanders used generals born in the system, and half used ordinary born generals, while the military department only used one ordinary born general, and the rest were born in the system, so that there was no fear that the commanders of the theater would conspire to rebel, and the military power of the army of the Great Qin Empire would always be controlled by the imperial family.

The system said that all those born in the system will be loyal to Zhao Cheng as soon as their descendants are born, if Zhao Cheng dies, Zhao Cheng's descendants will still be loyal to them, and the emperor will give priority to allegiance and will not betray, unless the Zhao royal family is wiped out!

Hearing Zhao Cheng's selection of candidates, all the ministers nodded secretly, whether it was a title, experience, or identity, Gao Gong was worthy of the post of chief of general staff, Fang Xin was also very satisfied, of course, some people had objections.

"Your Majesty, the power of the chief of the general staff is too great, why don't you set up a few generals to supervise?" Zhang Chuanzhi, the secretary of the military department, proposed.

He felt that as soon as the chief of the general staff came out, the power of his military department was greatly weakened, and the military department was originally in charge of the army and ordnance, etc., but now all the military power was given to the chief of staff.

However, it is normal for him to be unhappy, comparing whose rights have been weakened for no reason, and no one is happy.

"No, I set up the chief of general staff, just in the hope that the army can be mobilized in a unified manner, if the post of supervisor is established, the two will disagree at that time, and the order will never be transmitted, won't it delay the fighter!" Zhao Cheng directly shook his head and refused.
