Chapter Fifty-Eight: The New Army of Shuyang
On July 15, the Huayang Army selected Wancheng and established a thousand people, except for nearly 100 experienced soldiers of the original Huayang Army, the remaining 900 people were newly recruited.
Jing Yi held the roster, and then handed it to Lin Yuyan, and after Lin Yuyan opened it, he glanced at it.
Jing Yi said on the side: "Your Highness, in addition to the establishment of 1,000 people on the side of Shuyang, according to His Highness's wishes, another 500 people have been placed at the dock of Shuyang. ”
"Well, the military salary of the Shuyang Army can be provided by the annual tax of Shuyang, as for the civil volunteers of this Shuyang Wharf, most of them are the original Gangs of the Shuyang Wharf, and the annual salary is prepared by the red head, and another account is made, and the upstream and downstream of the Shuishui are really important, so please ask Wancheng for the system, and the pavilion system should be changed above the Shuishui."
Hearing His Royal Highness's words, Jing Yi reminded: "Now the person in charge of this matter in the Wuguo Dynasty is His Royal Highness's second brother Gongzi Xin, and His Royal Highness also understands that if he does not do something substantial, Gongzi Xin will never be able to give His Highness any help." ”
Hearing this, Lin Yuyan nodded, this second emperor brother has already made a lot of concessions in this matter, if he doesn't know what to do, presumably this second emperor brother will not have much patience.
At present, only by purging the water bandits can it be possible to make conditions with the Wancheng court!
Thinking of this, Lin Yuyan also smiled, before leaving the palace, he only thought about doing some big plans to make Wuguo rich and strong, but now he found that Wuguo was rotten to the bones, if he didn't dig up those carrions, Wuguo might be unsustainable.
Such a martial country, if it weren't for the surprise soldiers of the second and third emperor brothers ten years ago who burned the grain and grass camp of the Jin Han army, which brought a ray of life to the martial country, this martial country would have died long ago.
Rao is now, but he is struggling to support it in the wind and rain.
If you want the country to be rich and strong, as the most important transportation vein in the country, it must be opened up and the blockages must be removed.
Therefore, Lin Yuyan decided to eliminate the water bandits, and did not hesitate to do it himself, in order to do his best to make himself a prince of peace.
After all, Lin Yuyan doesn't plan to be a prince who has died in the country.
Since he wanted to change the weak national strength of the Wu State, Lin Yuyan decided to start with small things, such as the Shuyang Army that he now controls.
Lin Yuyan scratched his head, then looked at the roster, and said to Jing Yi: "From today onwards, the Shuyang Army will change its military system!" ”
Decimal!
This is the system that Lin Yuyan wants to vigorously promote in the military country, which has twelve hours for the decimal system of one day, the decimal system of thirty and eleven days, and the hexadecimal system of sixteen taels for one catty.
However, the most convenient and concise decimal system is rarely interested.
It is still too early to promote this concept on a large scale, and Lin Yuyan does not have this ability today, but through the establishment of the new army in Shuyang, people can know what this decimal system is.
It is even more understandable to use the heavenly stem to represent the decimal system.
The 1,000-strong Shuyang Army can be divided into 10 units, each with 100 people, and it can be divided into 10 units. Each department has one chief, two commanders, one centurion and two captains, and ten departments can also be called battalions, with thousands of generals and adjutant generals.
In this way, the decimal system of ten tithes and ten battalions is practical.
Nowadays, the military system of the Wu State is in accordance with the ancient rites, and the orthodoxy has 12,500 people per army, and the Wu State is like the Nanyang Army, and the Fangcheng Army and the Xinye Army are this establishment.
Some generals like to arrange troops, so the binary and three-way military systems are adopted, which is convenient for marching with the left, center and right armies, and some generals like to attack the regiment, so the military system is chaotic, and it is often difficult to give orders.
Lin Yuyan scribbled on the book, which is to write the most primitive decimal military system.
At that moment, Lin Yuyan finally thought about it for a long time, and then handed over this book to Jing Yi and asked him to bring it to Xiang Ying, the current captain of the Shuyang Army.
Xiang Ying was also born in the Zongfu, and as a military pawn who had guarded the frontier of Wuguo, he was naturally qualified to be in the position of the lieutenant of Shuyang.
Jing Yi also has a lot of respect for this sect senior.
Xiang Ying took the book handed over by Jing Yi, unfolded it, and asked Jing Yi, "Your Highness, what does this mean?" ”
Jing Yi replied: "Captain Xiang, this is the military system designed by His Royal Highness himself!" ”
Xiang Ying nodded, then carefully looked at it a few times, and immediately patted his thigh and said, "Your Highness really has the talent of a general!" ”
So Xiang Ying summoned the deputy general Yi Ji and said: "The number of people set today, the bamboo card made will be redesigned." ”
This bamboo plaque is a thing to show identity, it seems that the military of the military has a bamboo plaque, which is engraved with the owner's name, place of origin and military status.
For example, Yang Xiong, who was personally promoted by Lin Yuyan, had a bamboo plaque that read, "Yang Xiong, a native of Beiling, a centurion of the Huaiyang Army." and so on.
In order to be able to identify the bones on the battlefield when they are unrecognizable, in addition, it can also be used as a thing to prove the identity of the military in peacetime.
After the deputy general Yi Ji carefully understood what Xiang Ying said, he also nodded and replied: "The last general understands!" ”
Xiang Ying let him go.
After Xiang Ying saw the deputy general Yi Ji leaving, he looked at Jing Yi and said, "Commander Jing, Xiang wants to borrow some men and horses from His Royal Highness's Zong Guard, so that they can train the Shuyang Army that can be used to quell the bandits as soon as possible!" ”
Jing Yi nodded and agreed: "Your Highness has said hello, saying that now all the people in Shuyang will make way for the Shuyang army, and when I go back today, Jing will ask Ji Wu and Chun Yuqi to bring half of the Zongwei to help Xiang Duwei train." ”
Hearing this, Xiang Ying also expressed his gratitude to Jing Yi for his accessibility: "Thank you Commander Jing, now that the Shuyang Army is newly built, all the materials on the side of the Shuyang Order can be transferred over to equip the Shuyang Army." ”
Hearing this, Jing Yicai said: "The weapons and leather armor will be sent as soon as possible, and the military rations will be escorted over for a few days. ”
"How are the folk volunteers at the Shuyang Wharf?" Xiang Ying asked.
Jing Yi replied: "My Royal Highness has named Xiao Kun, a local patriotic warrior in Shuyang, as the deputy lieutenant of the five hundred civil volunteers who coordinate the wharf of Shuyang. ”
Xiang Ying nodded, and reminded again: "If you want to solve the problem of water bandits, you must have a water war, and the water war must be based on bows and arrows, and please Commander Jing can remind His Highness?" ”
Jing Yi said with a smile: "Your Highness knows, not long ago, I sent someone to Wancheng to order a batch of bows and arrows from the Casting Bureau, and I will send them after a while." ”
Xiang Ying nodded and said, "That's good, that's good......"
