Chapter Ninety-Two: Organizing the Army
It has been a few days since the Nguyen Thiong went up the mountain, and in the past few days, many people have come to Liangshan one after another. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Han Bolong also came back a few days later, with a group of more than 60 people including the lion's head. But it turned out that the lion head and others took the silver given by Wang Lun to do business, lost the capital, and went up the mountain to start their old business. When Han Bolong went back, he happened to incorporate these people.
Recently, Liangshanbo has been very lively, and it has long attracted the attention of nearby bandits and villages. A small village strongman in the east of Liangshanbo, seeing that Wang Lun's group was powerful, also came to take refuge.
Yu Jiang, who had fallen into the grass earlier, and worked with Song Wan Wang Lun also brought people to defect. Originally, after separating from Song Wan, he also intended to fight with Song Wan and pull the team alone. But half a year has passed, and his team is only more than 100 people, and there are already nearly 1,000 people on Liangshan. Therefore, Song Wan sent a letter to him.
As for the other two young men and strongmen on Liangshanbo, Wang Lun did not intend to let them go, and he did not allow others to sleep soundly under the couch, so he sent Han Bolong and Bai Daba to surrender. If you can't surrender, then you have to meet each other.
Nowadays, there are many people in Liangshan, which can be described as a mixture. There are the Liangshan minions led by Song Wan, the farmers and idlers under Yu Jiang, and the fishermen and hunters of the Ruan brothers. In order to integrate the military so as not to affect the overall combat effectiveness of the army, and to prevent some leaders from having a monopoly on their own troops, Wang Lun reorganized the combat strength of Liangshan.
There are now more than 80 war horses on the mountain, and Wang Lun left 30 as the leader's mounts, and the rest were handed over to Yang Lin to train the cavalry. In fact, Yang Lin's riding skills and horse kung fu are ordinary, but except for Wang Lun, he is the best among the people who go up the mountain, so he has to pull out the big one among the short ones.
The Ma army is a strange soldier on the battlefield, with strong mobility and great lethality, and can often influence the situation on the battlefield. It has been unique in the era of cold weapons, and it has not withdrawn from the stage of history until modern times. The cost of cavalry training is high, and it is not easy to train, and Wang Lun has also made great efforts.
The weapon is equipped with a spear, a saber, and a small shield. Everyone is in leather armor and hats, and one person is riding. In fact, the cavalry is best for one person and two horses, but Wang Lun has to give up now that the conditions are insufficient. Wang Lun originally wanted to equip the cavalry with bows and arrows, knowing that Genghis Khan's ability to cross Europe and Asia was all due to cavalry archery. But considering that there are few people who can ride horses now, I gave up. It was only given to a few people who could shoot arrows, and each person had a horse bow.
The infantry was modeled after the Song Dynasty forbidden army, with five people and a team with a captain. Ten people are one tithe, and the chief is set. A team of 50 people is a team with a captain and a deputy captain. 100 people are a capital, and there is one head of infantry and one deputy head. If the contingent is expanded in the future, a battalion of 500 people can be appointed, and a commander can be appointed. Thousands of people are an army, set up a capital to command, and so on.
For the time being, the infantry can only be expanded to five capitals, with 100 soldiers each. The first capital is Du Qian, the second capital is Song Wan, the third capital is Jiao Ting, the fourth capital is Han Bolong, and the fifth capital is Shi Qian. Bai Daba, Yu Jiang, Yang Xianzhong, Lion Head, and the newly recruited strongman leader Scud served as the infantry leaders, and followed these five people as deputies.
The infantry melee team was armed with a waist knife per person, the ordinary sergeants wore wooden armor, the captain wore paper armor, the leader wore iron or leather armor, and there was also a war horse. The long-range team was equipped with a waist sword, a longbow, and thirty feathered arrows, and only a small number of people wore armor.
Although Du Qian and Song Wan had other ministries, Wang Lun still arranged for the two to be infantry leaders. In troubled times, military power is king! I still have to take care of my old brother.
The establishment of the navy army is only more than 200 people, which is normally only enough for two capitals. However, Wang Lun temporarily set the number of each navy at eighty, so that the three Ruan brothers had a team belt. The first capital is Nguyen Xiaoer, stationed at Golden Beach. The second capital, Nguyen Xiaowu, and the third capital, Nguyen Xiaoqi, were stationed at the newly built Duckbill Beach.
The navy was equipped with different equipment, some were equipped with spears, others were equipped with bows and arrows. Armor-piercing sailors are the fewest but each has a short blade. This was proposed by Ruan Xiaoer, so that it was also convenient for the navy to fight, and there was no cumbersomeness.
Most of the warships of the navy are small sampans, and the two largest ones are Ruan Xiaoer and Ruan Xiaoqi's ships. But none of them are serious warships, one is a cargo ship eight zhang long, and the other is a flower ship more than eight zhang. Wang Lun was also very ashamed of the equipment of the navy, how good it would be if there were a car and boat used by Yang Mi.
In addition, Wang Lun also selected 30 brave soldiers on the mountain to form his own personal guard. Because there was no suitable leader for a while, he had to lead it himself.
In addition to the regular soldiers, Wang Lun also set up an auxiliary army system to organize some old and underage people together. I don't expect to form combat effectiveness, I can wave the flag and shout, clean the battlefield, and transport baggage.
Wang Lun also tried his best to discourage public opinion, and put the new people who went to the mountain, except for those who had voted for the name and contributed to Liangshan, into the auxiliary camp for training. The three-month period is for a period of time, and only those who pass can become regular soldiers. This is also to prevent copycats from being multi-eyed and mixed with spies. There are also more than 80 people in the integration of these people, and Zhu Gui is temporarily put in charge.
The auxiliary soldiers are paid half a month, and the regular soldiers are paid a consistent month. Wu Chang has always been half a long, even three times, four vice captains, five captains, and ten heads. In addition, everyone also has dividends from robbery, as well as war merit income. A head or a captive is half a run, and the generals are killed to capture the flag and break the camp and pull out the fortress at least 100 times, and there is no upper limit.
The commanders and commanders of the army were elected this time, and they had both popular support and prestige, and it was not a problem to command operations. The captain and the deputy captain are all men who dare to fight, charging into battle for their own use. As for the leader's ability, everyone can see it and they are convinced. Therefore, after this reorganization of the army, everyone in Liangshan was happy. All of them are gearing up and ready to do a big job.
Only Zhu Gui in the hotel under the mountain was unconcerned after the army was reorganized. His letter has been sent out for more than ten days, and it stands to reason that there should be news from his brother's side. Now that Han Bolong has returned with a group of old brothers, Zhu Gui is in a hurry.
It turned out that since he went up the mountain, Zhu Gui wrote a letter to his younger brother. First, I haven't been in touch for a long time, and now I'm leaving Jeju to report safety. The second is that now the cottage is the time to employ people, and it is better to let the brothers come here to make a living than to be angry in the city.
The cottage is ranked in the first place, and Zhu Gui ranks fifth among the nine, and he is also passable. But he knew that this was Wang Lun's face that he had been taking refuge for the longest time. Now that the Ruan brothers have gone up the mountain, the seat is undecided, which makes Zhu Gui have a deep sense of crisis.
Seeing that the cottage is thriving day by day, heroes from all walks of life come to vote, and if their brothers don't come, I'm afraid the position will get lower and lower. On this day, Zhu Gui made up his mind to take leave from Wang Lun and go back to meet his brother.
