Chapter 189: Auxiliaries, Regular Soldiers, Soldiers
In the next month or so, with the assistance of the Military Division, everything went on as usual in Dengzhou, and nothing more important happened.
During this period, Wang Zheng gave an order, and the Dengzhou battalion carried out a vigorous training activity.
This is the first time that many people have encountered this kind of training activity, and in the past, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court also dealt with this kind of thing, and since the Wanli years, there have been few places to do it again, and no one has come to investigate.
Wang Zheng is very concerned about this matter, this is the best way to see the combat effectiveness of the soldiers under his command, but the training of the Dengzhou battalion is called training, but it has changed in his bones.
Originally, when discussing this matter, the staff officers of the Military Council Department were in favor of using the old rules, but after Wang Zheng understood the original rules, he immediately refused.
Wang Zheng has already spoken, and the people in the Military Council Department have nothing to say.
Wang Zheng has always been the same in the Dengzhou camp, his status is transcendent, and the Military Discussion Department is just an auxiliary role, even if everyone agrees with a method, Wang Zheng wants to veto it is simple, it is a matter of one sentence.
In Wang Zheng's view, there are many loopholes in the rules at this time, and according to the old rules, most of them are ornamental military parades, but what Wang Zheng wants is a "drill" that can see the problem.
Only when problems are found before the war and corrected, will there be no rush during the battle.
After setting the new rules, Wang Zheng said that in the future, the training of the Dengzhou camp would come once every three months, and he would follow his own rules.
In late June, the officers and soldiers stationed in every place in Dengzhou Mansion came to Penglai in batches, and the shouting began to be repeated in the city, and the non-stop training lasted for half a month before it gradually went out.
At the end of the day, Wang Zheng took Wen Dengbing to practice in person.
The officers and soldiers of the Dengzhou battalion in the surrounding area couldn't take their eyes off it, or they said that the treatment of the Wendeng soldiers was high, that is, this kind of soldiers could completely annihilate the Tartars.
Wen Dengbing even walked with a brush, it seems that he really regards the training as going to the battlefield, no matter what orders Wang Zheng suddenly issued, they can be executed in an orderly manner, and the speed is also very fast.
Wen Dengbing is all iron armor, holding a stainless steel tiger gun in his hand, a large piece of fine light is dazzling, and more than a thousand people have just made a momentum that thousands of people don't have.
Wang Zheng was not happy after this training, and even took some responsibility, and saw too many problems.
First of all, when making preparations, there was already a deployment and coordination of the Military Council Department in advance, but the soldiers and horses in various places had not yet been uniformly organized, and it took a lot of time to complete it in a hurry.
After the beginning, it was not smooth, although these Dengzhou soldiers could be called the best of them when they were dry salt, but after they became regulars, they had a new structure, and the military column was no different from the newly recruited recruits.
In the eyes of Wang Zheng and Dong Youyin, they couldn't bear to look at it directly.
There is a long list of problems, and these are the next ones to be solved.
In fact, Wang Zheng was also a little lucky, if he hadn't done such a training on a whim, he really couldn't see that there were so many problems with his subordinate soldiers and horses, and if he went into battle, he would find out that it was really too late.
Speaking of which, the current Dengzhou battalion should include the officers and soldiers stationed in all parts of Dengzhou, these people have just been transferred from Yanding, and the most elite part is still the group of Wendeng soldiers personally led by Wang Zheng.
Wen Dengbing has a high status in the Dengzhou battalion system, just like the status of Bayala soldiers in the Qing army, although the number is only more than 1,500 people, they are all top veterans, who have fought a lot of water and land battles, and have rich experience.
After the training passed, others were still talking around excitedly, and Wang Zheng had already begun to think about the issue of compilation.
Since the establishment of the imperial court, the soldiers and horses under his command can no longer be called Chengwen Dengying, and if you go out, you have to say that it is Dengzhou Ying.
It didn't take long for the unified establishment to be issued.
From now on, all the men and men and baggage soldiers who accompany the army will be called auxiliary soldiers, and the officers and men of the Dengzhou battalion stationed in various places will be called regular soldiers, and they will not be used until a major battle.
In Wang Zheng's view, although these people have combat effectiveness, they are not familiar with the establishment and array, and fighting a war is not just as simple as rushing forward in a swarm, but also needs to be practiced well.
In addition, the part of the Wendeng soldiers he brought with him was the main force of the battle, and they were called soldiers after being incorporated into the Dengzhou battalion.
For the entire Dengzhou Mansion, the more than 1,500 soldiers are already stretched, so Wang Zheng is already planning a larger-scale recruitment.
The soldiers need to be composed of experienced veterans, and naturally they cannot be recruited directly from the people, even from the salt ding of the inspection department, and can only be recruited from the regular soldiers of the Dengzhou battalion stationed in various places.
After the recruitment, the vacant places of the regular soldiers will be selected from the salt ding of the inspection department to be filled into regular positions.
......
In the middle of July, the first batch of displaced people sent from the left camp finally arrived.
The reason why these displaced people have to be sent in batches is entirely because there are too many people, the last time the list said that there were thousands of people, which is not the truth, the real situation is that there are more than 15,000 people.
If so many people send it together, the movement is too big, and this is divided into three batches.
Most of them are displaced people from all over the world, and there are all kinds of people, including the children of the rich and noble families in the past, as well as the refugees from the five provinces of Liaodong and the Central Plains.
For Zuoying, who has no base area, it costs a lot of money every day to feed these people, but for Wang Zheng, it is not easy for the entire Dengzhou Mansion to accept these displaced people.
Now that the matter of Juntian is nearing the end, almost every household under the jurisdiction of the Dengzhou camp has land, and even if they don't want to farm, they can go to the salt works, blacksmith shops or other places to help, and the money is not low.
In the eyes of outsiders, Wang Zheng's collection of these homeless people seems to be a move that only has his brain burned out, but Li Yan knows why Wang Zheng did this.
What is most lacking in Dengzhou Mansion now, one is the population, and the other is the talents who can do various crafts.
In the long run, Wang Zheng can't always rely on himself to form a cavalry, and naturally needs experienced people to serve as the head of the coach, Jiaodong does not have this kind of talent, but the Central Plains has been in turmoil for many years, and there are many people who can ride horses, which is a good start.
Closer to say, the current firearms in the Dengzhou camp are only one kind of bird gun, which is really a bit monotonous, and there are many other earthen firearms at this time that are efficient and simple, but there is no familiar one in the Dengzhou camp, and Wang Zheng does not know.
There are all kinds of people in this group of homeless people, although some bastards and ruffians will inevitably mix in, but this is not something to worry about.
Now the Dengzhou Mansion is very peaceful, and the Yan Ding of the Inspection Department wants to enter the Dengzhou camp, and he is worried that there are no thieves who can catch the meritorious service book, which is estimated to be not enough for them to stuff their teeth.
In addition to these bastards, the rest are all useful, there must be a lot of craftsmen of various crafts, even if they don't know anything, they can also divide the fields for them to reclaim, and now the big machine of Dengzhou Camp is lacking small parts.
