Chapter 204: Fifty Battalions
Chapter 205: Fifty Battalions
Generally.
The original two armies of Frostwolf and Silver Wing each had a strength of about 6,000 men, which was slightly expanded, and the scout cavalry battalion had 2,500 men each, with a slight fluctuation up and down, and the two armies each had three battalions.
Both the Tieyun Cavalry and the Jingyun Cavalry are about 30,000 people, and the predetermined size remains unchanged, with ten battalions each.
Yunzhou's originally weak infantry army, General Xu Lao did not make too clear deployment, and now it is clearly adjusted to the scale of 30,000 people, organized into ten battalions. Among them were three battalions of heavy infantry, three battalions of combat infantry, two battalions of archers, two battalions of heavy weapons. The infantry army has also basically determined the combat mode of heavy infantry and combat infantry to cooperate with the enemy and rely on archers and heavy equipment to destroy the enemy from a long distance. And the combat infantry battalion and the archer battalion are not far from the equipment standards of the Blood Qi Army from the perspective of the army building plan, which makes everyone extremely excited.
This total of 36 battalions constituted the main force of Yunzhou's future foreign operations. The eight garrison battalions formed after the reorganization and training of the garrisons in various localities will take over the defense of various localities one after another. Due to the abundant animal husbandry resources in Yunzhou, almost everyone can ride a horse, and the garrison battalion is equipped with simple sword weapons and leather armor regardless of infantry and cavalry. In addition to ensuring the safety of the town, the garrison battalion will gradually undertake the tasks of patrolling the interior of Yunzhou, patrolling the main roads, and assisting local law enforcement. Naturally, Ye Tao will give a clear yardstick for assisting local law enforcement in the future, and the army cannot be given the opportunity to intervene in local affairs. In wartime, these garrison battalions may also be tasked with preventing enemy infiltration. But Suo Zheng's recitation of a series of considered equipment and training made most of the generals present roll their eyes - is it necessary to get such elite troops for these simple tasks? When the garrison battalion has all completed training and redressing. I'm afraid that the combat effectiveness will not be worse than the average cavalry in Northern Liao, and when there is a real war, it is too wasteful to leave such an army behind.
The last six battalions were all directly subordinate units of the Yunzhou Economic Strategy and the General Headquarters. It includes two baggage battalions, a Guards cavalry battalion, a Guards infantry battalion, a medium battalion and a special battalion.
The commander of the two baggage battalions is naturally Suo Zheng, the only professional baggage logistics management general in the world today.
Guards Infantry Battalion and Guards Cavalry Battalion. It is mainly responsible for the security work of the Jingluo Mansion and the General Headquarters, and by the way, it wants to become the face of the Yunzhou army, and there are some needs for honor guards.
Both the Chinese military battalion and the special battalion have an establishment of about 1,000 people. The Chinese military camp is still relatively easy to understand: In future foreign wars, with the expansion of the battlefield and with the implementation of Dongping's increasingly strict communication system and communication secrecy system, it is indeed necessary to have a group of professional sergeants who can quickly decipher and decipher letters, and to have heralds equipped with better horses. It is necessary to have professional eagle raisers and pigeon keepers, and the formation of professional staff officers and document management departments will also start from this Chinese military camp.
The special battalion is a special branch of troops that Ye Tao, Tan Weixin and Dai Yun finally decided to form in several correspondences, which was born out of the special forces that Ye Tao and Tan Weixin understood. It mainly carries out various tasks that ordinary armies cannot do. This battalion, the battalion is Dai Qiong, and the battalion deputy is one of Ye Tao's closest guards: Zhou Rui. Dai Qiong had previously managed Dai's military intelligence work and had extensive experience in reconnaissance, espionage, and intelligence analysis and management. The special battalion only takes this part of the function one step further. As the son of the famous "wolf king" in the martial arts, Zhou Rui has deep attainments in stealth, assassination, hunting, searching, etc., and is most suitable for leading the team to carry out the task of sabotage behind enemy lines in the future. And the special battalion, which is preparing to absorb many martial arts people to join the special army, naturally needs such a young man who can calm the scene, and his kung fu and brain are very useful.
When such a framework is fully completed, Yunzhou will have more than 100,000 elite troops that can play a role in future dynastic wars, while at the same time having a fairly solid rear. And in logistics, command and coordination. It also has a complete system. It is conceivable that the Yunzhou army will definitely be impressive in the future.
But when Dai Yun began to gradually announce the steps of the army, everyone couldn't laugh. There are about 40 people present today, if nothing else, most of the battalions will be produced among these people, and the type of troops to which everyone belongs is also very clear, so naturally some people will be a little dissatisfied with the preparation plan of Yunzhou. In some battalions, the rearmament plan was not completed until two years later.
Dai Yun's announced plan. It was almost based on the replacement of five battalions per quarter. Priority is given to the preparation of the Frost Wolf and Silver Wing armies. Everyone understands very well that before the armies of Yunzhou did not form a strong combat effectiveness. Detecting harassment is very important. Scout cavalry has much more training courses than ordinary cavalry, takes longer and should be prioritized. Other units will have a series of training standards, and in each season, all branches of the army that have a quota for changing their equipment will be given priority to change their equipment if they meet the training standards. And the problem arises in this quota issue, especially Tieyun Ride, it is still summer, and the maintenance plan will be officially implemented from next quarter, and the first outfit quota of Tieyun Ride will not appear until next summer. As the head of the headquarters of the Yunzhou Economic Strategy Mansion, Dai Yun can't be biased towards Tie Yunqi, which is understandable to everyone, but he doesn't have to treat his own people so lightly. However, almost all of these middle and high-ranking officers of Tieyun Riding were members of the Dai clan, and everyone looked at each other and didn't say anything strange.
However, Dai Shijin, who was designated as the commander of the Yunzhou infantry army, said with some hesitation: "Ye Jingluo, Dai Commandery...... Isn't this a bit inappropriate? Tie Yunqi has always been the mainstay of my Yunzhou, does the old man think that he should give priority to changing clothes? Moreover, the old man was originally just the commander of the Dai clan's soldiers...... Now there are four classes at once, which is really confusing. Ye Jingluo is not ......"
Ye Tao motioned for Dai Yun to sit down and said, "Let's decide the appointment like this for the time being, everyone is from not understanding to understanding." And marching to war, whether you understand technology or not is only one aspect, whether you can fight a war, whether you dare to fight a war is the key. Dai Shibo does not have to be presumptuous. If Yunzhou's infantry army can quickly become an army, you still have to rely on your prestige and bravery. β
Ye Tao stood up and said to everyone, "This is just a preliminary outfit plan. It can be said that it is a change of clothes, in fact, except for Tieyun Cavalry, the other armies are almost all starting from scratch, and they have to go through a run-in stage from immaturity to maturity. It was precisely because of the strength and maturity of the Iron Cloud Rider that I thought twice about planning it this way. I'm sure that when the equipment arrives. The Iron Cloud Rider can quickly transform into an army that terrifies the whole world. Moreover, when this plan was designated, I also missed some things. Like what...... This bag of stuff in my hand. Ye Tao tossed the bag of gems that Said had given him on the table. A few sapphires the size of pigeon's eggs, rubies, and even emerald olives, which had never been seen in the East, broke through the pockets of pure black flawless velvet and burst out of their golden silk bundles, bouncing on the table, and shining brighter and brighter in the bright light of the factory.
"The first quarter equipped a battalion of Iron Cloud Riders. I won't lower the training standards, if I can't meet the requirements of the command after changing clothes, then Tie Yunqi won't ask for it anymore, if I can meet it. That one more battalion of Tieyun Riders is unplanned to be equipped every quarter. What do you think? Ye Tao looked provocatively at the officers from Tieyun Cavalry who were sitting together and talking to each other.
The first to protest was Dai Yun, who stood up with a frown and said, "Ye Jingluo, this is not in accordance with the rules. Yunzhou needs money everywhere now. There is no need for this. Even if you don't change your clothes, Tie Yunqi is an iron army and will never lose to anyone. β
Ye Tao waved his hand and said, "There are unplanned arrangements for foreign money. The whole army needs to be assigned in order. Throw it into the local area. If the local government really needs it urgently, I definitely wouldn't suggest it. β¦β¦ The training standard of Tieyun Riding and Jingyun Riding is very high, I just want to ask, do you have this confidence in this quarter? β
Dai Yun snorted. How could she not know that Ye Tao was also very considerate of her like this, and besides, when it came to this. If she shouldn't accept it, then she obviously doesn't trust her subordinates to meet the standard. Dai Yun's chin was raised, and he whispered, "Cheng Chi, start with your battalion." Then she sat down angrily, thinking that having land in the future would be an opportunity to clean up Ye Tao.
In this way, this already well-thought-out maintenance plan can be regarded as a logical approval. Ye Tao nodded and said with satisfaction: "Then I'll talk about the next thing." You've all seen the Overseer's armor, what do you think of it? β
For Ye Tao's personal design. The beautiful set of armor jointly produced by a group of elite craftsmen in Yip's Workshop. Everyone drooled I don't know how much. Since Ye Tao asked, it naturally caused an exclamation. One of the most exaggerated is Chi Lei. He almost literally drooled, and after some description, he asked, half-jokingly, "Isn't that no longer for the proprietress only?" β
Dai Yun frowned and glared at Chi Lei, but his face turned red. Although she knew that everyone already knew about her marriage to Ye Tao, and she also knew that everyone already knew that she knew that everyone knew about it, but it was a bit ...... to be stabbed open at the military meeting It's a bit embarrassing. But in the face of the grinning Chi Lei, Dai Yun couldn't get angry, but his face was a little feverish.
Ye Tao scratched his head, pointed at Chi Lei and said, "You change it last." Then he said to everyone: "The Ye Clan Workshop now has two armor design teams, one of which continues to be in Danyang, serving the rich masters of the Blood Qi Army. Another group has already come to Yunzhou, and after you have reported the candidates for the 50 battalions and approved them by the high command, they will be customized for everyone one after another. β
Dai Shijin asked with a smile: "Can General Qiu Haohui's armor also be made?" "You know, from the moment he saw that set of cloisonnΓ© ground armor, he was greedy until now, it was really gorgeous and beautiful.
"Naturally," the corners of Ye Tao's mouth curved more steeply, and he said with a smile, "Spare no expense." β
