Chapter 72 Reforming the Military System

After chatting briefly with Jin Sheng for a while, Jin Sheng finally said: "My lord, at the moment, you are the main battle, but as a parent official in a place, the subordinate officials also need to have soldiers in their hands to deal with some mobs and homeless people to make trouble." ”

Zhang Qiang also felt that it made sense, but he didn't want outsiders to control the army, so he said, "Each county has a local garrison, and the prefecture also has a garrison of the prefecture, and the official of the same governor of the prefecture is responsible for the duty of arresting bandits. ”

Jin Shengdao: "It should be so, I don't know who your subordinates think can be this important task?" ”

This person doesn't need to think about it, he can show his talent and fame, and he can also deal with civil affairs, and the one who can talk to these scholars is of course Zhou Congee, so he said: "The magistrate of Wuyi County and the garrison of Zhou Congee can be this position." ”

Jin Sheng stood up, "Then I can rest assured, my lord will go down to do things." ”

The troops in the hands of the official position of garrison can be large or small, but here Zhang Qiang positions him as a force that can be commanded by a hundred households.

It doesn't take much to maintain the place and arrest the bandits, and it takes about 200 people to maintain local law and order in peacetime, assist the civilian government in power, and assist in defending the city in wartime.

These people are under the direct vertical jurisdiction of the Tongzhi, and they are used by the Chinchi, or they are usually subject to the request of the Governor to suppress the exiles, bandits, and have limited participation in local affairs.

They generally only defend the county seat.

Zhang Qiang thinks that he is the commander, he uses the military system of the Ming Dynasty guard, the righteous army, and he does not need a too regular military system for the time being, and it seems that his military system is not quite the same as the pure historical Ming Dynasty military system, because he is more casual, sometimes according to the reality and his own ideas, he is such a person.

In the past, he did not have many soldiers, several subordinates commanded a class, and he commanded his subordinates, and together they formed an army to fight the enemy, but now he has to make this simple military system a little more complicated.

Below the capital division is the commander of the guard, responsible for commanding thousands of households, otherwise you are not good at distributing, say that these generals who were assigned to various places by Zhang Qiang are thousands of households, and the number of troops they command far exceeds the number of thousands of households stipulated by Zhang Qiang, and it seems that they are undermatched.

Du Si, Wei Commander Envoy, Thousand Households, Hundred Households, General Banner, Small Banner, Shi Chang, Wu Chang This is Zhang Qiang's division of military positions, simplifying and modifying the Ming Dynasty's military position and official position system, at a glance.

The commander of the capital division and the commander of the guard will not fix the number of subordinate thousand households under his command, because this is not suitable for Zhang Qiang's current situation.

At present, a guard commander may command two thousand households, or even two thousand households, one hundred households, and some may command one thousand households, or several hundred households, and the deployment of troops is entirely for the needs of defending the enemy.

Inside Zhang Qiang's team:

A corps commander commands five soldiers, plus him six men.

A sergeant, commanding two captains, twelve, plus him and two heralds, is fifteen.

A small banner, commanding two chiefs, thirty men, plus four of his own guards, also heralds, and he, thirty-five.

One general banner, commanding three small banners, one hundred and five people, plus himself, and ten guards, is one hundred and sixteen people.

One hundred households, commanding two general banners, two hundred and thirty-two people, plus himself, plus fifteen guards, is two hundred and forty-eight people.

One thousand households, commanding five hundred households, one thousand two hundred and forty men, plus himself, plus thirty guards, one thousand two hundred and seventy-one.

And the Wei commanders, that is, Wei Wuji, Xuanyuan Longfei, Du Ge, Mi Chun, Mi Lin, He Jin, Lin Yangsheng, and Hu Kui, the troops under their jurisdiction are all different.

Wei Wuji and Du Ge have a heavy task.

Wei Wuji had two thousand households under his jurisdiction, plus one hundred households, plus his own personal guards with a strength of one hundred households, a total of two thousand four hundred to five hundred people, and the county town also had a garrison of one hundred households under the command of Zhou Congee, a fellow knowledge, which was also two hundred and eighteen people.

Du Ge had three towns that needed to be defended in order to completely block the enemy's back to attack Dongyang, attack Yongkang County, and attack the road to Jinhua Fucheng, so he had a force of three thousand households, plus one of his own hundred households of personal guards, because it was not a county seat, so there was no garrison of this hundred households.

Zhou Congee, the same acquaintance, stationed in the capital city, the garrison of the whole government, the garrison force is under his control, he also serves as the official position of the commander of the garrison in the capital city, commanding a thousand households.

Xuanyuan Longfei was stationed in Yiwu County, leading a force of two thousand households, plus two hundred households, and one hundred and fifty of his own personal guards, with nearly three thousand troops.

He Jin and Lin Yangcheng had 1,600 troops at the same time, each of them controlled the troops of a county town stationed in a thousand households, and at the same time controlled the temporary dispatch of troops of two hundred households, and he also had a personal guard of dozens of people. This is mainly because Zhang Qiang doesn't trust them too much, after all, they are demoted generals, which means that they are only equivalent to the rights of a thousand households.

If it weren't for the heavy defensive task, Zhang Qiang would not have temporarily sent them two more troops of 100 households.

Mi Lin, Mi Chun, two people each have jurisdiction over two thousand households.

Hu Kui was originally stationed in Wucheng, under the jurisdiction of four hundred households cavalry squadrons, and at the same time responsible for the movement of the surrounding enemy troops, and later because Zhou Congee returned to Fucheng, he could only take a hundred households cavalry guards to take over the Wuyi County garrison, as the commander of the Wuyi County Guard, under the jurisdiction of two thousand households.

Zhang Qiang personally led three hundred cavalry squadrons, but the three hundred cavalry squadrons were still stationed in Wucheng, and Zhang Qiang led one of his own personal cavalry squadrons, one hundred and fifty people, and two thousand troops of firecrackers stationed in Jinhua County.

The troops of the thousand households led by Zhou Congee were actually stationed at the back of the county seat, on the Beishan Pass, to prevent the enemy from sneaking up on Jinhuafu City from behind.

At present, a thousand households are stationed in each county to guard the county seat, and the capital city is led by me, and the military strength changes, and there is no permanent system. ”

Let's put it this way, Zhang Qiang's current army actually follows part of the military system of the Ming Dynasty's guards, but in fact, his army has become a system of its own.

But it is slightly different, the garrison is responsible for carrying out the orders of the political envoys, and the Tongzhi is responsible for the specific implementation, guarding the city, eradicating bandits, chasing down the rogues who threaten us, and other vicious criminals, while the usual tax collection and court trial are still responsible for the official and the arrest, which is the affairs of the government.

Zhang Qiang's regular soldiers, now also known as the Jinhua Righteous Army, although they are also responsible for guarding the city, are directly under the jurisdiction of Zhang Qiang, not under the jurisdiction of the local government, and their main duty is to guard against foreign enemies and go out to fight.

Zhang Qiang's model, to put it bluntly, is equivalent to the division of labor among the police, armed police, and the army in later generations.

Time passed quickly, another week passed, and Jin Sheng had begun to actively recruit administrative personnel in Jinhua Mansion and its subordinate counties, the displaced people and the original people of Jinhua Mansion, visit some squires who still remained in Jinhua Mansion, and re-straighten out local relations, so that they recognized the responsibility of the Righteous Army to protect Jinhua Mansion, and they recognized the Righteous Army as a local army, and recognized the tax payment to the Righteous Army, that is, Zhang Qiang's army.

Due to Jin Sheng's publicity, Zhang Qiang's popularity rose again, and according to the system's statistics, his popularity reached thirty.

According to the system's division of popularity, 0 is cold, 5 is accepting, 10 is friendly, 20 is friendly, and 30 is close.

In other words, they have now accepted Zhang Qiang from their hearts, and are willing to get close to such an army and this person.

With Jin Sheng's preliminary work, Zhang Qiang decided to recruit all his subordinates back, officially hold a ceremony to seal the official seal, and officially adjust the military system he thought of this time in place to prepare for the next battle with the enemy.
