After explaining these, Zhang Gongyan then began to turn the page while using the formation diagram to explain the use of the Spanish phalanx and the change of formation in response to various situations. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThese have been specially studied by the General Staff Department since the First Battle of Yushan, and although they are brief, they quickly made the generals present realize what the advantages of this formation against the Ming army are.

"Since our army's Lumi guns are significantly superior to the Tartars' bird guns in terms of power and range, they were forced to attack in hand-to-hand combat instead of using firearms to continuously fire at our army's advancing battle formations, so we only saw hand-to-hand combat."

"According to the deduction of the General Staff Division and the demonstration of the surrender of the soldiers, its formation has better played the effect of firearms than the formation used by our army......"

The Ming army of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Zhejiang has always been at a disadvantage in terms of quantity and quality in the face of the Qing army. In this regard, on the one hand, it is to adjust the cavalry tactics, on the other hand, it is to make use of the terrain and fortifications as much as possible, and the last aspect is to spread the pressure of the defensive cavalry to the firearms team, and use the continuous shooting of the firearms team under the cover of the hand-to-hand infantry to reduce the threat of the Qing cavalry, and buy time for the frontal hand-to-hand infantry to defeat the opponent.

Now, with the increase in seizures, the cavalry is about to form a scale, and the infantry formation has revealed problems, and adjustment has become inevitable.

"From now on, the training department will start training the firearms team for the rat battle under the spear forest, and the weapons will be temporarily equipped with waist knives."

"Does the firearms team attached to the Mandarin Duck Formation need to train for this?"

In the hand-to-hand combat stage, the spear formation will suffer a loss in the rat battle in the face of the Spanish phalanx, but the mandarin duck formation will suffer in the long soldier attack when facing the Spanish phalanx, and those firecrackers who kill under the spear forest are basically here to die, and there is no such problem.

"You need to be trained to prevent problems before they happen."

Chen Wen took over the question and set the tone for this, and the officer in charge of the Military Training Department naturally would not argue with Zhang Gongyan. Zhang Gongyan continued to explain some other training tasks.

After explaining the Spanish phalanx and a series of training tasks, Zhang Gongyan gave Chen Wen and the participating officers a flat-chested salute and returned to his seat, while Chen Wen began to explain the adjustment of the army.

"The battle barracks of my Jiangsu-Zhejiang Wang Division is the head of the mixed battalion of infantry and artillerymen. Each battalion has four infantry bureaus, two of which are spear formations and two are mandarin duck formations. Each game is equipped with four tiger squat cannons and one Franc machine gun. There are four Franc machine guns and four bronze guns in the artillery team directly under the battalion. The battalion is directly subordinate to two squadrons of cavalry, two hundred cavalry. The battalion is directly under the engineer corps of fifty people. With the addition of the commanders, staff officers, drummers, military doctors, ambulances, men, and grooms, the battalion totaled 2,377 people. ”

This establishment is the result of several rounds of small-scale expansion, the main body of infantry remains unchanged, the establishment of four bureaus, and the cavalry, engineer and artillery, and other battalion personnel are always expanding.

The people attending the meeting will know these things well, and Chen Wen immediately announced the results of the expansion after saying all this.

"The adjustment of the establishment of each battalion is as follows, from now on, the four infantry bureaus of each battalion will remain unchanged, the establishment of the spear formation will be expanded to three, and the mandarin duck formation will be reduced to one. The bureau's artillery team added one Franc machine gun, and the artillery team directly under the battalion added four Franc machine guns and four bronze guns. The battalion cavalry was expanded from two squadrons to four squadrons with four hundred cavalry. The battalion directly under the engineer corps was expanded to a hundred people. The battalion is directly subordinate to the grenadier brigade of one hundred people. The increase or decrease in the number of subordinate personnel of other battalions will be carried out in accordance with the document of the order of expansion in September of the eighth year of Yongli, and after the expansion, the total number of personnel in the battalion will be 2,905. ”

The original 2,300 people in each battalion was already close to the standard of the odd barracks, and now the 2,900 people are about to be restored to the establishment of the regular barracks. And that's not the end of it.

"Due to the needs of large-scale field command, from now on, the establishment of divisions above the battalion level will be established. It is mentioned in "Saying Words": Teacher, 2,500 people are teachers. This is the military system of the Zhou Dynasty, and our army has three battalions of soldiers and one cavalry battalion under each division. The two infantry bureaus directly under it, the Mandarin Duck Formation. The artillery team directly under it is equipped with four mortar guns and four Hongyi guns. There are 200 cavalry troops directly under it. One hundred people directly under the sapper corps. The division has more than 11,000 people. ”

There are tens of thousands of people, boundless, and the enormity of this establishment has calmed everyone present and made them all feel excited by it.

Four years ago, on Dalan Mountain, the Nantang battalion with only a few hundred people at that time has developed to today, and it is also an army with tens of thousands of iron armor. Prior to this, it was still a little unnoticeable to the battalion, but with the establishment of this new organization, the overall momentum has been completely different.

It's just a feeling, and although it's not like adding a new layer of strength can produce more soldiers, it sounds like how many battalions and divisions there are, even if the final numbers are the same, but the feeling is completely different.

This is something that can't be helped, originally when Chen Wen only had eight mansions in eastern Zhejiang, he only faced two general directions - Hangzhou and Guangxin Mansion, and the distance between them was enough for him to quickly dispatch a large army to help. However, now that half of the four southeastern provinces are in his hands, and with the increase of opponents, the operational directions that need to be faced have also increased, and he has to expand the command structure to cope with the next situation.

"The specific personnel positions will be announced in the next month or two, and our army now has only thirteen combat battalions, one mounted infantry battalion and one cavalry battalion, and there is a long way to go if we want to organize into a completely new establishment."

As for which battalion commander can be promoted one step ahead of others, the top brass in the army basically have a number in their hearts, and if they do the math, there are only a few candidates.

"In addition, the garrisons of the prefectures and counties also need to be further adjusted, and the counties will distribute troops according to the situation in each locality, and the prefectures will no longer be limited to the defense of the prefecture and the attached Guo County, but will be expanded as a mobile force. In this way, our army's combat battalions can be completely turned into mobile forces in various strategic directions, instead of being limited by the tasks of assisting in defense in various localities. ”

………………

Expansion is the first priority of the Ming Army in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Zhejiang today, not only the army, but also the naval division. The original Zhejiang inland water division has always been on the defensive in recent years, and it was once nicknamed the training base of the water camp.

This is something that cannot be helped, Chen Wen has basically been on the defensive on the northern front in recent years, and the Qiantang River is beyond his ability to overcome for the time being. It's not that he can't kill it, but the situation he needs to face after killing it is difficult to deal with with his strength in the past few years.

In this way, the inland water division was on the defensive, and a part of the personnel participated in the formation of the Zhejiang coastal cruise water division, and now, with the recovery of Jiangxi, the establishment of the Poyang Lake water division is also imperative.

The base of the Poyang Lake Naval Division will be set up in Raozhou for the time being, and after the construction of the forts in the Jiujiang area is completed, some ships will be separated to assist in the defense, so as to achieve the strategic goal of cutting off the Yangtze River route.

None of this can be done overnight, and it will take time to achieve the goal. In the following days, as the investigation team returned one after another, Chen Wen also gained a better understanding of the situation in Jiangxi.

"According to the records of the Jiangxi Metropolitan Command and Envoy, there are four guards in Jiangxi Province, including Nanchang Wei, Yuanzhou Wei, Ganzhou Wei, and Jiujiangwei, and eleven thousand households such as Ji'an, Raozhou, Anfu, Huichang, Yongxin, Nan'an, Jianchang, Fuzhou, Leadshan, Guangxin, and Xinfeng, all of which are under the jurisdiction of the former military capital governor's office."

"Former Military Governor's Mansion?"

"Exactly."

In the Ming Dynasty, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies can be understood as the division of five theaters. In addition to Zhejiang and some of the guards in Beijing, the Governor's Office of the Left Army, which belongs to Zhejiang, is also responsible for the command and envoys of Shandong and Liaodong. The former military governor's office is under the jurisdiction of the guards who stayed in Beijing, Long Xiangwei, and Bao Taowei, as well as the commanders of Huguang, Fujian, Jiangxi, and Guangdong, and the guards of the Fujian Xingdu Division, Huguang Xingdu Division, and Xingdu Left-behind Division, as well as Jiujiangwei, which is directly subordinate to the former military governor's office instead of Jiangxi.

Chen Wen claimed to be the hereditary hundred households of the right guard of Tianjin, and it stands to reason that he should have been the post of the governor of the Later Army, but because of the command of the army in Zhejiang, Lu Jianguo was appointed to the post of the governor of the Left Army Governor's Office, and it was logically continued after being transferred to the Gui Domain.

Needless to say, Zhejiang is the capital of the Left Army, but Jiangxi is not within his jurisdiction. Although the system of guards has long been corrupted, some things still need a certain explanation in name.

"I've got it done."

The land occupied by the Ming Dynasty's guards occupied nearly half of the country's land at the beginning of the country, and by abolishing the old guards and establishing new ones, Chen Wen distributed the old authority and inheritance of the guards to the civilian group and the military, realizing the perfect cooperation between the two sides in expansion from the inside out.

The old guards in the eight prefectures of eastern Zhejiang have been completely abolished, and the new ones are similar to the Ministry of People's Armed Forces, but with greater authority. And the abolition of the old health office in Jiangxi will also begin, but compared with Zhejiang, Jiangxi involves another problem, that is, the palace.

"According to the investigation, Jiangxi Province has the three feudal domains of King Ning, King Huai and King Yi, respectively in Nanchang, Raozhou and Jianchang, and there are also Ningfu Honor and Guard Division, Huaifu Honor and Guard Division, Yifu Honor and Guard Division and Huaifu Pastoral Office, Yifu Pastoral Office and other health stations......"

Huaijing King Zhu Zhanqi is the seventh son of Emperor Hongxi Mingrenzong Zhu Gaochi, Yongle was enthroned in the 22nd year, Xuande was in the fourth year of the Shaozhou Mansion in Guangdong, and moved to the Raozhou Mansion in Jiangxi in the first year of orthodoxy, which is a relatively early vassal king. And Yiduan King Zhu Youbin is the sixth son of Zhu Jianshen, Emperor Ming Xianzong of Chenghua, Chenghua was entitled in 23 years, and Hongzhi was in Jiangxi Jianchang Mansion in 8 years, and he was the feudal king in the middle of the Ming Dynasty.

The origin and subsequent history of these two palaces are relatively simple, nothing more than the pig raising model of the old Zhu family. In comparison, it is far from being able to compare with the Ning Wangfu in the first place in Jiangxi.

Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, is the vassal king who borrowed Duoyan Sanwei when Ming Chengzu Zhu Di was in trouble. After the Jingjing tribulation, the unkind Zhu Di directly moved King Ning to Nanchang in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and the right to fulfill the promise of dividing the world.

In this regard, the successive generations of King Ning from Zhu Quan and below were obviously very dissatisfied. It is unrealistic to divide the world in the middle, but compared to the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, which only occupies one Chinese character, Daning is a native emperor with military power and a younger brother of a different race, not a prisoner in Nanchang City. So, in the fourteenth year of Zhengde, Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, launched a rebellion, and the army was called 100,000, swept northern Jiangxi, and went straight down the river to Nanjing. As a result, the rebellion lasted for forty-three days and was suppressed by Wang Shouren, the governor of Southern Jiangxi, that is, Wang Yangming, the master of Xinxue.

After Zhu Chenhao was executed, Ning Wangfu was abolished, and after two terms of Ningfu Zongli, the eight county palaces under the jurisdiction of Ning Wangfu were divided into three and handed over to Yiyang, Jian'an, and Le'an.

“…… The Jiangxi Three Feudatories had extensive land and industry in Jiangxi, but most of these things were now occupied by the Imperial Court and its officials. ”

"But find out who took possession of it?"

Hearing the sound and knowing the elegant meaning, in addition to the emperor's feudal land, the Ming Dynasty's palace is also a wide range of industries in the local area, the fields pass through the state, and the profitable industries are also trying to grab the benefits of it, and the provinces in the domain are the largest tyrants. The civil official in charge of the investigation swallowed his saliva, not only because of the huge size of these industries, but more importantly, because of Chen Wen's appetite.

"Returning to the marshal, the situation in Nanchang and the surrounding provinces of Nanchang has been clarified, and the other provinces have not been thoroughly clarified for the time being."

Looking through the reports sent by the investigation team, the situation of the Ning Fan and the Huai Fan already had a general situation, while the situation of the Yiwang Mansion was still a little vague. But even so, the industry that came up from the investigation was enough to make him jaw-dropping.

In fact, this is also normal, King Fu became a vassal, and Emperor Wanli gave 20,000 hectares of high-grade fertile land, or when King Fu Zhu Changxun was afraid of the turbulent discussion and resigned from the original 40,000 hectares. In addition, the Wanli Emperor also confiscated the family property of the former first assistant Zhang Juzheng, the miscellaneous taxes along the river from Jiangdu to Taiping, the salt tax and tea tax in Sichuan, and the annual 1,300 citations of Huai salt and the monopoly of salt in Luoyang to the Fu King, and this is not counting the looting after the domain.

The three vassal kings of Jiangxi, of course, cannot be compared with the reward of the Fu King, but the Fu Wangfu is just a generation of kung fu and will die, but these three have a history of more than 200 years and less than 150 years. With such a strong official background and such a long time in the local government, it can be said that it is difficult to imagine the rights and interests that have been seized.

It can even be said that in the mountains carried by the common people of the Ming Dynasty, the palace was an indispensable one.

Looking at the list of private property of these local tyrants, even if he knew that many of them had been destroyed in the war, or that the profits in Jiangxi today were far inferior to those of the past, Chen Wen still sighed in his heart about the decay of feudal royal power.

After a long time, Chen Wen put this preliminary report on the table and asked the officer in charge, "Who are still alive among the three feudal kings?" ”

With this question, the officer had expected it, only to see him swallow his saliva and sigh a sigh of relief before replying: "According to the investigation, the Ning Wangfu has been removed, but the two county palaces of Ruichang and Le'an are still attacking the lord, and the king of Le'an is in the center of the left. In addition, King Huai, King Yi, and King Shucheng and King Luxi of the Yiwang Mansion are also in the center of the left. Others, some of them have disappeared, and some have simply been removed from the country. ”

Before Jiashen, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong were in class contradictions and wantonly killed the Ming clan. When the Qing army entered the customs, it was also very fearful of the clan.

As early as the third year of Shunzhi, the Qing court casually found an excuse, saying that King Heng and King Jing, who lived in Beijing, wanted to raise troops against the Qing Dynasty, and beheaded Emperor Hongguang and Zhu Cunji, King of Qin, Zhu Xianxuan, King of Jin, Zhu Changshu, King of Lu, Zhu Cixuan, King of Jing, Zhu Youli, King of De, Zhu Youdi, King of Heng, and Wang Zhiming, the male number one of the "pseudo-prince case", at Caishikou. After that, the clan was slaughtered even more, and even in the Kangxi period, there was a case of the third prince of Zhu, under the pretext of "although Zhu did not have a rebellion, he did not have the heart of rebellion", and killed Zhu Cihuan, who was already 75 years old.

The living environment was extremely harsh, and the clans retreated incognito and retreated to the mountains, while others simply fled to the Ming army-occupied areas, such as the southwest and the Zhongzuo controlled by Zheng Chenggong, which became the refuge of these clans.

"I see."

Aside from the southwest and the center-left, Jiangxi Province has not been without incognito clans. Now Chen Wen is in full swing, but the southeast is a battleground for the Manchus, and some of these clans who were frightened by the Qing army may still be trembling in their seclusions, while others may already be on their way to Nanchang, such as Zhu Qi, a descendant of the King of Yiyang.

The industry of the vassal king is extremely tempting for Chen Wen and the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Ming Army groups behind him. But the industry of these descendants of the old Zhu family is not like those old guards that grandma doesn't love and uncle don't love, it's by no means so easy to start, sometimes what is needed is not only means, but more importantly, courage!
