2200 mixed brigade
"At present, the north has the largest number of people who have signed up to join the army, and there are about 10,000 people who have been registered and finally counted, which can be organized into four regiments. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Gongsun said with a smile. He was a major staff officer in the training section of the General Staff of the Qin Army. Their main task is to be responsible for the training tasks of the army, and in the future they will be organized according to certain needs. Composed of the most needed establishment units of the Qin army.
"Four regiments. If it is organized according to the force of 2,000 people, it is almost five regiments. In this way, we will be able to create two brigades. Lieutenant Colonel Tu Tuo nodded and said. He was an officer who grew up in the old Qin army, and because of his rich experience, he was placed in the Qin army staff. The main thing is that he has a lot of experience, but he did not go to the military academy training of the Qin military system. Therefore, in the process of accepting new things, he felt that his abilities were becoming more and more inadequate.
"Sir, we can't just rely on numbers to form two brigades. A regiment has 2,000 men, a brigade has two regiments, plus two battalions, so that it can reach six battalions. Such an establishment cannot be said to be a strong army. Gongsun said.
"We also have to look at the specific combat effectiveness. Now in the Qin army, there are more and more Huns, northern Hu people, and mountain people composed of troops, such an army is very dangerous for us, a strong army of 5,000 people. The threat to the central Guanzhong of the Qin army was also great. Gongsun said worriedly.
"Hmm. I really didn't think about that. I'm just thinking about it from a purely military point of view. Tu Tuo nodded and said.
"So how do you plan to build the latest army?" Tu Tuo nodded and asked.
"Our plan is that instead of using a large establishment of 2,000 men at the regimental level, we will use a small establishment of 1,000 men, so that we can control these combat units very well. At the same time, it can better exert the flexibility of cavalry. The establishment of two thousand people is too large. Gongsun said.
"For brigades, I personally believe that brigades should be mixed, and cavalry units should be a thousand people. The mountain infantry took a formation of one thousand and a half. Mixed brigade, organized as a cavalry unit of 1,000 people, and another 1,500 mountain infantry units. Gongsun said.
"The establishment of a brigade is only 2,500 people, is it too small?" Tu Tuo said with some concern. After all, such an establishment is only 500 people larger than the current establishment of the Hun cavalry regiment. Moreover, the cavalry's mobile combat ability has been greatly reduced. The ability to fight on foot has also been increased a bit. But it is not possible to have strong combat effectiveness. In this case, is it a bit more than worth the loss? ”
Tu Tuo said worriedly at this time. After all, the establishment will remain the same, but if the number of troops becomes smaller, it will have a great impact on combat effectiveness. Tu Tuo had to take this into account.
"Sir, what should be considered is the future combat object of our Qin army, as well as the composition and proportion of the army." Gongsun said at this time.
"Hmm. Let's talk about it. Tu Tuo didn't understand the meaning of what his staff officers said.
"Judging from the current situation, the proportion of foreign troops in the composition of the Qin army is likely to increase in the future. To what extent this percentage has increased, we don't know, but there is nothing that can prevent it from increasing. Gongsun said.
"The reason is finance. This is especially true of military spending. There may be only a limited increase in military spending, but most of it will be cut. Because the Qin army could not have too many troops fighting outside. Especially in the Guanzhong region, as well as the armies formed in other parts of the Qin army, the logistical pressure on the formation of such an army, and the military cost is too high, it is impossible for our Qin army to have too many Qin people's own army. Therefore, the degree of control over these armies must be strengthened. Gongsun said.
"In addition, there is another reason, that is, the large-scale reduction of the combat effectiveness of the main combat objects of the Qin army. The Qin army fought on the plateau in the north, in the northeast, in the western regions, and in the southwest defense line. It is still the corresponding combat object of the six Kwantung countries, and it has temporarily entered a period of confrontation or peace, and in this case, the combat object of the Qin army has been reduced. The main purpose of the Qin army is to put such troops into areas of local chaos, so that the mixed brigades of our Qin army can play a certain role, the cavalry troops of the Huns, and the mountain combat troops of the mountain people. As well as part of the artillery units, plus the command of our Qin army. In this way, a certain combat effectiveness can be quickly formed. Such a mixed brigade may form a powerful suppression against some units with strong combat effectiveness, but I think it can still be capable of dealing with some relatively weak and low-level combat areas in the combat area. Gongsun lost introducing. It is precisely for the above reasons. Gongsun lost before he thought of using such a method.
"Hmm." Tu Tuo nodded in agreement.
"You're right." Tu Tuo nodded in agreement.
"That way, we'll be able to solve a lot of things quickly. Although the combat effectiveness of the mixed brigade is weaker, it is against weaker targets. It is also possible to put it into some combat areas. All right. We began to draw up a preparation plan and submit it to the Chief of Staff. Tu Tuo nodded in agreement. Immediately, the staff officers began to compile the compilation table according to the ideas they had just formulated.
"Such a compilation. Although the number of troops has been reduced, it is very beneficial to us. Yang Duanhe looked at the compilation table in his hand and said to Wang Qian.
"At present, the combat objects are relatively weak, and troops that do not need too strong combat effectiveness appear, and the mixed formation, the Huns and the mountain people will form a confrontation, and such a contradiction is very beneficial to us. It's also easier to control. Yang Duanhe said.
"Yes. It is true that the size of the army is a bit large now. A unit like a brigade, mixed up, is also better. In this way, what was originally two brigades can become four brigades. The range of troops used will be broader, and the weapons will be more complete. After all, the Qin army was facing some combat targets with relatively weak combat effectiveness, and the loss would have little impact on the Qin army. Wang Jian said.
"At the same time, if you do this, you can also save some military spending. It is also easier to control such an army. The staff officers' analysis was correct, and Wang Jian agreed. After all, such a situation is obvious.
"It's just, in this case, in terms of military spending, after all, the initial plan was only two brigades." At this time, Yang Duanhe said worriedly.
"But the total amount of our military spending is the same." Wang Jian said with a smile.
