Chapter 517: Three Army Groups
Lu Budao: "The money in the bank, transferred out and back in, although it did not cause losses, but it took a great risk. If the person who took out the loan can't repay it on time, who will fill the huge hole? So this matter, you shadows should pay attention to it, and send someone to check it out, where did all that money go in the month since it disappeared? ”
Nie Zheng said: "My lord, we are secretly checking the accounts... I'm not good at it. In particular, the transfer of interests between banks and businessmen is investigated. The subordinates suggested that the Criminal Department should investigate, perhaps faster than us. ”
"As soon as the criminal department made a move, it startled the snake." Lu Bu said: "It's better for you shadows to investigate." The main thing is to check the bank and the household department Shangshu and Shen to see if there is a relationship between them. Report to me as soon as there is a situation. ”
"Yes."
Nie Zheng responded.
Time flies...
After half a month of operation, Xiang Yu's broken military camp and Li Cunxiao's Flying Tiger Army were reorganized. But compared to before, it's much worse. The soldiers who joined the broken barracks and the Flying Tiger Army were at most veterans and had limited combat effectiveness.
Xiang Yu's broken military camp has been increased to 20,000!
Li Cunxiao's Flying Tiger Army, five thousand!
The 25,000 men were all heavily armoured. It can be said that it took several years of reserves of the Military Aircraft Department and a huge amount of money to build. Each of the war horses is from the north and the west, and the people of the Chamber of Commerce must buy them back one by one, which is not only risky, but also very expensive. Even Cao Cao didn't have such a big hand.
And the two elites that spent so much money and food to build, Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao were not satisfied.
Because the quality of the soldiers is so poor ...
this day.
The Military Aircraft Department convened generals at all levels to announce the division of posts.
The generals who came to attend the meeting included Xiang Yu, Li Cunxiao, Fan Lihua, Mu Guiying, Han Xin, Li Jing, Song Xian, Cao Xing, Zang Ba, Yang Lin, Pei Yuanqing... Wait a minute. All the generals who have positions have gone to the military aircraft department.
The meeting was presided over by Chen Gong, Xu Shu, Jia Xu, and Zhang Liang.
"Let's all sit down."
Xu Shu was the first to speak: "After more than a year of war, our army structure has been chaotic. So, there is a reorganization. First of all, my 1st Army, to be restored to 100,000 people. Originally, the lord said that we should select elites from the garrisons in various places to join the new army, but after our later consideration, we still don't want to choose. Those who were previously members of the Forces nouvelles were restored to the structure, and the number of poor soldiers was replenished from the reservists of the military department. ”
"Thank you, sir..."
Bai Qi, Liang Hongyu and others hugged their fists. They were afraid that the Military Aircraft Department would pick out their troops again.
"Thank you for what I do, it's the decision of the Military Aircraft Department." Xu Shu looked at Chen Gong.
Chen Gong continued: "Let me announce the formation of all the armies. ”
"I won't talk about the local garrisons, the Volunteer Army, and the Tuntian Army, I will only talk about the restored structure and the newly given structure. 20,000 barracks, 5,000 Flying Tiger Army, 100,000 100,000 1st Army, 100,000 2nd Army, 100,000 3rd Army. In addition to these, there is also the newly formed 200,000 Yangzhou Army, which I have ordered the Ministry of War to supervise, and it will be completed within three months. ”
"Sir, what about our troops..." Bai Qi, Wei Yan, Liang Hongyu, etc., are all a little worried. What Chen Gong said just now, it doesn't seem to include their troops, do they want to be disbanded?
Jia Xu said with a smile: "The generals' troops will be included in the 2nd Army and the 3rd Army sequence. After that, they will go to Jingzhou and Xuzhou respectively to garrison. ”
"That's right," Chen Gong said, "except for General Liang Hongyu, her army will be incorporated into the Yangzhou Army and serve as the deputy governor of Yangzhou." ”
The appointment of the chief and deputy governors of Yangzhou was announced half a month ago.
Hearing Chen Gong mention it again, Li Cunxiao looked at Liang Hongyu with a smile.
"Hmph."
Liang Hongyu snorted a little arrogantly and sat back in place.
Chen Gong continued: "After careful consideration, we have decided to appoint General Bai Qi as the commander-in-chief of the 2nd Group Army, and Generals Zhang Liao and Wei Yan as the chief and deputy commanders of the 3rd Group Army. Yang Lin, Wu Yunzhao, Wu Tianci, Zang Ba, and Xue Rengui were appointed as generals of the 2nd Group Army, and Pei Yuanqing was appointed as the vanguard of the 2nd Group Army. ”
"After the troops were formed, the 2nd Army went to Xiangyang City in Jingzhou to garrison it. The 3rd Army went to Xuzhou to garrison Xiapi City. All units are actively training and preparing to send troops.... ”
"Yes...!"
The people stood up and answered.
After sitting down, they all laughed and said hello to each other.
Especially Wei Yan, he couldn't stop laughing. He had been complaining that he couldn't get Lu Bu's reuse before. Although the official is from the second rank, he is already one of the best generals under Lu Bu, but he has an empty rank and no actual military power. Now he and Zhang Liao are in charge of the newly formed 3rd Army, although it is only a deputy position, but it is also a commander-level position.
Wei Yan was very satisfied and didn't complain anymore...
Zhang Liao was also full of joy.
Chen Gong said: "The 1st Army is a new army. I won't talk about the equipment of the new army, there is a fixed structure. For the equipment of the 2nd Army and the 3rd Army, our Military Aircraft Department will give each group army 20,000 light cavalry and 30,000 three-bow crossbows, and you will be in charge of the rest, and you will go to the military headquarters to receive the necessary equipment. About a month later, he went to Jingxu to garrison. ”
"White up."
"Yes."
Bai Qi stood up.
He is now sixteen years old, about 1.7 meters tall, taller than the average adult.
Chen Gongdao: "After the 2nd Group Army led by you arrives in Jingzhou, you should get to know each other more with Luo Cheng and Lu Xun's Jingzhou Army and Liu Bowen's Thousand Banners Army, and practice the skills of cooperation and combat. In the future, when we go to the battlefield, we can cooperate more tacitly. ”
"No."
"Zhang Liao and Wei Yan are the same. The troops of Xuzhou and Qingzhou are not far apart, and they can build several camps at the junction of Qingzhou and Xuzhou to concentrate the troops together for training. ”
"No."
After arranging the affairs of the three group armies, Zhang Liang, the minister of the Military Aircraft Department, said: "In the course of our battle with Liu Bei and Yuan Shao, there will often be enemy masters who will be captured or killed in battle, and the troops under his command will also surrender. This situation seems quite common in the history of warfare, but ... Our military aircraft department does not want to see our troops, and this is also the case.... ”
Xiang Yu interjected: "Mr. Zifang, you are too worried, since the army in Xuzhou, it has been ten years now, how many soldiers have you seen who took the initiative to surrender?" I dare to say that none of the soldiers who broke the barracks would surrender! ”
"Me too. Whoever dares to surrender, I'll screw his head off first! Li Cunxiao said.
"That's not something you can guarantee. The Military Aircraft Service will not believe your assurances either. Zhang Liang said: "In order to avoid this kind of thing from happening, I, Wenxian Pavilion Military Academy, are preparing to open again in early September." This time, whether it is a general of the new army, a general of the local army, or a regular army, all those above the rank of captain and battalion commander must come to Shouchun to study. For two months! ”
"Of course, except for generals above the fourth grade, after all, the army still needs people to lead, and they can't all come to Shouchun."
