Chapter 144: Responding to Change with Change
On February 6, 3013 in the Tang calendar, Su Yi officially announced that Cangyu City, the capital of the original Cangyu Empire, was renamed Chang'an City, which will be the capital of the future Tang Empire, as for the names of the 52 provinces, 378 counties and 2,000 and 58 counties of the original Cangyu Empire, as well as the names of various provincial capitals, county capitals and county seats, the future Tang Empire will all be retained and will not make any changes.
In the days that followed, the construction climax began in many places of the former Cangyu Empire, various factories sprung up, many large-scale water conservancy projects began to start, and almost every city of the former Cangyu Empire became a large construction site.
At the same time as construction was being carried out in various places, the 10 Guards Infantry Division, 1 Armored Division, 130 Field Infantry Divisions, and 52 Garrison Independent Infantry Brigades of the Royal Army of the Tang Empire also completed the initial reorganization.
One of the armored divisions, 130 field infantry divisions, and 52 garrison independent infantry brigades have all the personnel, weapons and equipment in place, and there are only 10 guards infantry divisions, because the number of biochemical officers and soldiers is not enough for the time being, and it is still in a shortage of personnel.
The five main fleets, seven garrison fleets and one submarine force of the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire were formed even earlier than the Royal Army of the Tang Empire, and each garrison fleet had two ironclad battleships as capital ships.
In addition, the Royal Air Force of the Tang Empire was also established on the outskirts of Chang'an City on 10 February, equipped with 800 fighters, 200 bombers, 120 medium-sized airships, and 40 large airships.
One hundred and twenty medium-sized airships and forty large airships are the limited number of two-year purchases in the system mall, and Su Yi has organized a group of engineers and technicians to transform these one hundred and sixty airships.
According to Su Yi's request, the gondola compartment of the medium-sized airship will be equipped with four bomb ports and four sets of devices for transporting aerial bombs, and eight MG-42 general-purpose machine guns will also be installed on it.
The gondola compartment of the large airship is equipped with six bomb ports and six sets of devices for transporting aerial bombs, and fourteen MG-42 general-purpose machine guns.
In January and February, Su Yi summoned a total of 800 Air Force Junior Combat Biochemical and 80 Air Force Intermediate Combat Biochemical, although it was not enough to provide 1,000 aircraft and 160 airships, but as time passed, the officers and men of the Royal Air Force of the Tang Empire would soon become rich and surplus.
As for the commander-in-chief of the Royal Air Force of the Tang Empire, Su Yi temporarily served as the commander-in-chief.
In addition to forming the three armies of the future Tang Empire, Su Yi also formed an intelligence department of the military of the Tang Empire, which was named the Military Intelligence Bureau by Su Yi.
However, because Su Yi really couldn't find a suitable candidate to serve as the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, he had to temporarily let He Yunfei be in charge of the formation of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and transferred many army-type middle-level biochemical people to join the Military Intelligence Bureau as the backbone.
In fact, after the surrender of the original Cangyu Empire, Su Yi was left with a complete intelligence department, and the personnel of this intelligence department were not only all over the entire Eastern Continent, but even had considerable strength in the other three continents.
However, Su Yi couldn't trust the intelligence department of the original Cangyu Empire for the time being, so Su Yi used biochemical people as the backbone and set up another set of military intelligence systems.
Just after the formation of the three forces of the future Tang Empire, the Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire has also completed the reorganization, and in the future, the Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire will have four main fleets and six garrison fleets, each of which also has two ironclad battleships.
In the army under Su Yi's command, there is only the adaptation of the Royal Army of the Purple Moon Empire, and there are a little more twists and turns.
Because of the large-scale mutiny of soldiers in the process of adapting the twenty-two infantry regiments of the Royal Army of the Purple Moon Empire, the scale of the new Royal Army of the Purple Moon Empire was finally increased by twenty infantry divisions and thirty-three garrison independent infantry brigades than previously planned, reaching one hundred and twenty infantry divisions and thirty-three garrison independent infantry brigades, with a total strength of more than 10 million.
The Purple Moon Empire has a total of thirty-three provinces, and like the upcoming Tang Empire, each province will also have a garrison independent infantry brigade.
The original wing commanders, division commanders and corps commanders of the twenty-two infantry regiments, seeing that the general trend had gone, could only choose to enter the newly established Purple Moon Empire Army Military Academy to study, hoping to regain control of the military after graduation, but what they didn't know was that due to this mutiny, these thousands of middle and senior officers gave Su Yi a very bad impression, even if they graduated from the Purple Moon Empire Army Military Academy, most of them could only go to the reserve forces, and they were all some deputy and idle positions.
Considering the problem of replenishment during the war, Su Yi will establish a huge reserve system in the Purple Moon Empire and the future Tang Empire, and the army reservists of each country will reach tens of millions.
In a mansion in Suisheng City, the capital of the Purple Moon Empire, a middle-aged officer wearing a gray-green military uniform said to a young man with a wry smile: "Young master, the Su family's appearance is too ugly, for example, among our people, there are many captains who have been directly demoted to a deputy company commander after a so-called assessment, this is not the worst, this time the twenty-two infantry regiments were reorganized, some captains were directly demoted to deputy platoon commanders, some squadron leaders were even demoted to deputy squad leaders, and some squad leaders were even pushed to the end, turned into an ordinary soldier. ”
The young man sighed and said: "I have already considered this situation before, even if it is replaced by me, I will also control the military power as much as possible in my own hands in the reorganization of the twenty-two infantry regiments of the Royal Army of the Purple Moon Empire, but fortunately, in the end, the Su Family Army agreed that the officers at the level of captain can directly join the new infantry division, so that our people can stay in the Royal Army more." ”
The middle-aged officer frowned and said, "But young master, our people, the highest level is only the deputy company commander now, and it is definitely a very difficult thing to control an infantry division." ”
The young man rubbed his temples on both sides of his head with his hands, and said helplessly: "There is no way but to start all over again, and no one can expect things to develop to this point." ”
The middle-aged officer hesitated for a moment and said: "Young Master, this time our thousands of wing commanders, division commanders and regiment commanders have temporarily lost their military power, and our subordinates are worried that some people will be shaken, especially those who know the true identity of the young master and are just bought by us, once they betray the young master, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
A cold light suddenly flashed in the young man's eyes, "Since some people have no use value, then there is no need for them to continue to live, you should understand what I mean." ”
"Don't worry, young master, I know what to do."
"Don't expand the scope, just get rid of some of the wall grass that knows my true identity, and do a good job of appeasing and coming up with a suitable reason not to cause panic among our own people."
On the afternoon of February 27, 3013 in the Tang calendar, in a dormitory in the Imperial Palace of Chang'an City, Empress Ouyang Xue said to Su Yi with a wry smile: "Husband, you must already know what happened to the Purple Moon Empire Army Military Academy, the four corps commanders and eleven division commanders of the original Purple Moon Empire Royal Army were all poisoned and died overnight, it seems that the water of the Purple Moon Empire Royal Army before was deeper than I imagined, I suspect that the four corps commanders and eleven division commanders who died of poisoning should have been killed and killed." ”
Su Yi nodded and said: "Most of these four army commanders and eleven division commanders were promoted during the war, and their predecessors died in an accident, it seems that in the territory of the Purple Moon Empire, there is a secret force that we don't know about, and they may have been planning to replace the royal family of the Purple Moon Empire before, but I, a spoiler, appeared, and disrupted their plans." ”
Empress Ouyang Xue frowned and said, "So who controls this secret force?" ”
Su Yi thought for a while and said: "Although I don't know who the leader behind this secret force is, it is certain that his identity is definitely not low, and there may even be many of them in the intelligence department and the royal guard, otherwise the previous investigation would not have had any clues at all." ”
Empress Ouyang Xue then asked, "Husband, then Prime Minister Guo Xian and Minister of War Yuan Lin should have no problem, right?" ”
Su Yi nodded and said, "I still don't think they should be the leaders behind this secret force, if they are really one of them, it should be very easy to control the entire Purple Moon Empire's Royal Army before, and it won't even arouse your slightest suspicion." ”
"Husband, what should we do now?"
Su Yi smiled slightly and said: "Now that the one hundred and twenty infantry divisions and thirty-three garrison independent infantry brigades of the Royal Army of the Purple Moon Empire have been formed, the military power can be said to be firmly grasped by me, and that dark force will not be able to make any waves for the time being, if that dark force wants to control the current military power of the Royal Army of the Purple Moon Empire, the fox's tail will eventually be revealed, and we only need to respond to all changes with the same now." ”
After a pause, Su Yi continued: "In addition, I have asked Cheng Ziwen, the commander-in-chief of the Royal Army of the Purple Moon Empire, to set up a military intelligence bureau subordinate to the military of the Purple Moon Empire, and I will ask Cheng Ziwen to transfer some backbones of the military intelligence bureau to secretly investigate that secret force, you don't need to worry about these things, you just need to raise the fetus with peace of mind." ”
Empress Ouyang Xue said with a smile: "Indeed, as the husband said, now the power of the Purple Moon Empire's Royal Army and the Purple Moon Empire's Royal Navy is in the hands of the husband, and there is no need to worry about those petty people." ”
