"Your Majesty, there are many generals in the army now, and we sometimes can't tell who is our superior! We can't tell the size of the generals' official positions, and we are often confused! Finally, a soldier stepped forward and said.

The soldier was a little dark and thin, but his eyes were shining, and it seemed that after two days of the long journey, he was still in good spirits!

"It's you! Wang Ying! Zhao Chen couldn't help laughing.

It turned out that this somewhat dark and thin soldier was Wang Ying, who had been standing for two and a half hours that day! At that time, Zhao Chen remembered his name, but he didn't expect to see him again in the army today!

"It's the villain, the name of the villain remembered by His Majesty, and the villain is extremely grateful!" Wang Ying said with some excitement.

"The question you just talked about, General Yue and I are also discussing these days! Do you have a solution to this problem? Zhao Chen thought for a while and said.

What Wang Ying is talking about is a problem of the military system! The military system of the Song Dynasty was chaotic, and there were countless high-ranking officials in the army, such as the envoy of strategy, the envoy of control, the envoy of observation, the envoy of defense, and the envoy of recruitment, as well as the captain of Zhaowu, Captain Zhenwei, Captain Zhiguo, Captain Yilu, Captain Xuanjie, Captain Yu, and countless other middle-level officers of different ranks, as for the junior officers, there are countless others! An army is often under the joint command of several generals, most of whom have unclear responsibilities! In the past, among the Kaifeng forbidden army, some generals didn't even know which army their subordinates were, and many army soldiers didn't know who their direct superiors were! The reason why the Song Dynasty implemented such a military system was mainly to learn from the experience of the Tang Dynasty to prevent the generals in the army from having too much power and the rebellion of the feudal towns, there was a Song generation, there was almost no military rebellion, but unfortunately the combat effectiveness of the army also declined indefinitely, almost all the Han dynasties were the worst in force, the Khitans could bully the Han people, the Tangut people could bully the Han people, the Jurchens and Mongols could also bully the Han people, and the territory of the Han people became smaller and smaller until the country perished! Of course, the military system of the Western Army and the forbidden army are still a little different, after more than 100 years, the Western Army has formed countless families of generals, the military system of the Western Army is slightly stronger than the military system of the forbidden army, but it is still inefficient, and there is still a situation where the soldiers do not know the generals and the generals do not know the soldiers!

At this moment, Wang Ying asked this question, Zhao Chen asked rhetorically, and Wang Ying said: "Your Majesty, I think the official system of the Jurchens is good!" They have 10,000 commanders, 10,000 commanders under a 10,000 commander, and ten centurions under a 1000 commander! In this way, the army will know who is big and who is small, and it will be clear at a glance, and there will be no situation where we don't know the superiors! ”

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "The Jurchen system is excellent, and it is indeed better than my Great Song army!" ”

When the Mongols rose in later generations, they also adopted the Jurchen military system, which was also a system of ten thousand commanders, thousand commanders, centurions, etc., such a system seems simple, but it is extremely effective! In the era of cold weapons, such a simple military system was much stronger than the cumbersome military system of the Song people, and the reason why the Jurchens and Mongols were able to oppress the Song people was also an important reason!

Wang Ying said: "Your Majesty, why don't we adopt the official system of the Jurchens?" ”

Zhao Chen was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "If we adopt the military system of the Jurchens, I am afraid that many ministers in the DPRK and China will not agree first!" The Jurchens are barbarians, in the eyes of the ministers, how can we use the barbarian military system in China? But we do have to change, I have discussed with the generals of the forbidden army these days, and there have been some results! ”

Wang Yingdao: "I don't know how Your Majesty has decided to change?" ”

Zhao Chen said: "The forbidden army now has a total of 60,000 people, and I have decided to divide the forbidden army into six armies, and the commander of each army is a general!" Each army is divided into three divisions, and the commander of each division is the deputy general! Each division is divided into three regiments, and the commander of each regiment is a lieutenant! Each regiment is divided into three companies, and the commander of each company is an lieutenant! Each company is divided into three platoons, and the length of each platoon is a warrant officer! Each row is divided into several platoons, led by the captain! These are just some preliminary ideas, and I have discussed them with General Yue several times, but they are still not completely decided! However, in a month or two at most, a new military system will inevitably be implemented in the army! The current military system really cannot be continued! ”

Facts have proved that the military system of the Song Dynasty has completely failed, since this is the case, then those military systems can no longer be adopted, everything has to be started from scratch! The military system that Zhao Chen is talking about now is the system of the army, division, regiment, company, and platoon of later generations, which is similar in some ways to the Jurchen system of 10,000 commanders, 1,000 commanders, and centurions, but the name has been changed! As for the previous official positions such as strategic envoys, observation envoys, defense envoys, and all kinds of school captains, etc., they were completely abolished, and the corresponding generals became army commanders, division commanders, regiment commanders, and so on! The reason why Zhao Chen took a month or two to implement this system was mainly because it involved the interests of many generals of the forbidden army and the rights arrangements of many generals, so he must be cautious! He and Yue Fei had to discuss it well before they could implement it!

This soldier named Wang Ying is very smart, and after thinking for a while, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Your Majesty, if you implement such an official system, our Han army will never be much worse than the female truth!" In the past, we were not as good as the Jurchens, many times because we couldn't find Shangguan at all when we were fighting, and Shangguan couldn't find us, and the more we fought, the more chaotic it became! ”

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "You train well, if you train well, you can become the leader of a platoon or a company!" As for other high-ranking officials, they have to rely on their military exploits to be promoted! ”

Wang Ying was overjoyed and said, "What Your Majesty said is true?" Can you become the leader of a platoon or a company if you train well? The villain is already a captain, and he will definitely train hard in the future and never lag behind! ”

Zhao Chen said with a smile: "In the future, there will be exercises in our army, and those who perform well in the exercises can also be promoted!" I remembered your name when I first came to the Forbidden Army, so I have great expectations for you, do you understand? ”

Wang Ying nodded and said, "The villain understands!" Your Majesty just look at it, the villain will make Your Majesty proud! ”

Zhao Chen said: "I hope so! Hope to see that day soon! Everyone is tired today, so let's rest! ”

On this day, everyone lay down to rest, and Wang Ying was excited, needless to say.

*** ***

By the third day, more and more soldiers were so tired that it was difficult to move!

Many soldiers are holding on to their comrades or carrying their comrades on their backs!

By the evening of the third day, Zhao Chen had already come to the foot of the Qinling Mountains, and when he turned his head to look, he saw a long dragon-like team coming towards this side! Almost half of the soldiers were supported by their comrades and carried forward on their backs, and when they saw the mountains in front of them, the soldiers of the entire army cheered!

The cheers were followed by an overwhelming hail of hooray!

This time, Zhao Chen was marching with them, and many soldiers talked with Zhao Chen on the way, and got Zhao Chen's encouragement! At this moment, everywhere is a time to kneel, and everywhere is the sound of hooray!

"Your Majesty, we succeeded! We've only been training for a month, but these soldiers have done something that no Song soldier has done before! Yue Fei said excitedly.

"It's just training now, and I'm going to take them to victory like they've never fought before! If I want to completely expel the Jurchens, it depends on them! Now I have some faith in them! Zhao Chen said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is also confident!" Yue Fei nodded.

"Let's talk about the military system a few days ago, and Wang Gui and Zhang Xian of Hedong will also be included in the forbidden army! This infantry drill will be sent to the east of the river, and they will also do it in accordance with this infantry drill code in the east of the river! They also want to change the military system and do it according to the new military system! They are all rebels on their side, there are no intricate relationships, and it should be relatively simple to implement these military systems! Zhao Chen said.

"Yes! Wechen will arrange this matter! Yue Fei said.

"It's getting late today! You send someone to inform Zhao Zhe of Dasanguan and ask him to come to see me, I have something important to discuss with you! Zhao Chen said.

"Something important? I don't know what it is? Yue Fei said with some surprise.

"When it comes to future military and political events, it is extremely important!" Zhao Chen just said lightly.

Yue Fei was inconvenient to ask more, so he sent someone to inform Zhao Zhe at the moment, and he didn't mention it.
