Chapter 154: Organizing the Army
Ma Xintian and Zu Bian's hearts were boiling, it turned out that Wang Huan was so intended, the two of them vaguely understood that what Wang Huan was doing was not a person who was content with the status quo of Wanshou Valley, and sooner or later he would have to figure something out, but he didn't understand what he was going to do? Surrounded by powerful and powerful, large and small forces are scattered, relying on the current strength, there is no long-term vision to plan and calculate, it is very easy to be annihilated in the troubled times, and now Wang Huan has explained his overall strategy to the two for the first time, and it is really feasible to think about it, which makes these two military men excited. [Full text reading. 】
People are ambitious, hoping to shine under the hands of the Ming Lord, and they can win wealth and glory in the future, if Wang Huan is a mediocre lord who is a little rich and peaceful, it is inevitable that they will be disappointed.
Only the ambitious heroes can make martial artists like Zubian and Ma Xintian willing to work hard, and then gather talents, grow their momentum, and create a foundation in the troubled times.
"My lord, are you saying that we should also follow the example of Zhuge Wuhou, look at the world according to Shuzhong, and restore the rivers and mountains of my Han family?" Zu Bian also heard it, and stood up excitedly and said in a loud voice.
Wang Huan fiddled with the spear in his hand and squinted at him: "You haven't skimmed the eight characters yet, what are you excited about?" Let's train my subordinates first, if there are no good soldiers, what kind of world do you want? ”
Zu Bian slapped his chest and said proudly: "Don't worry, my lord, according to your method, this group of crops is already enough to be a soldier, and they have fought two battles, and they have seen blood killings, and they will practice for a few days to ensure that they will not lose to any of the general soldiers of the Ming Dynasty." ”
Ma Xintian also said in a deep voice: "The adults have very high requirements for the soldiers, I have rarely seen them in my life, the training methods of the adults are a few more severe than the training methods of the general soldiers of Qin, and the effect is much better, and the adults are both rigid and soft, the rewards and punishments are moderate, the soldiers and generals are very convinced, there are no complaints, such a strong army is enough to be proud of many military towns in the imperial court." ”
Wang Huan put down the spear, exhaled lightly, shook his head and said, "It's not enough, compared with the Tartars, the gap is still very big." ”
Zu Bian and Ma Xintian were suffocated at the same time when they heard the sound, bowed their heads and were silent, they had seen the toughness of the Tartars, even Li Zicheng's war camp was defeated, it was indeed not ordinary, from Beijing to Shaanxi, and within half a year, they copied the capital of Dashun Kingdom, and chased Li Chuangwang, who was about to sit on the dragon chair, to the mountains and was killed by Xiang Yong, and he was shocked when he said it.
Everyone hated the Qing army, and the objective facts must also be acknowledged.
Wang Huan raised his head and set his eyes on the people who shouted loudly on the school field, and the villagers who were still holding hoe handles not long ago had already lined up with C guns in a decent manner, advancing and retreating in unison to assassinate according to the beat of the drum, how long has it been? Two months, or three months, the days are too busy, and they are a little forgotten.
He perked up, laughed and said to Zu Bian and Ma Xintian: "What are you frustrated about? We Wanshou Valley can train a team of winning officers and troops in such a short period of time, we should be happy, you are right, the Qing army is still far away in the south of the Yangtze River and north of the Yangtze River, and we are far away, and when they come over, we will not be what it used to be, and we will not wait for a year, no, half a year! It only takes half a year for me to make my sons grow up in blood, and use the enemy's head as a stepping stone for the soldiers to become stronger! ”
Zu Bian and Ma Xintian's eyes lit up, they looked at each other, and laughed at the same time, Wang Huan was so confident, of course there was no problem, they originally thought that Wanshou Gu Minzhuang would have been able to take charge of it alone, Wang Huan mentioned Tartar, which made the two of them a little worried, Wang Huan would not be afraid, since he quickly figured it out, it would be better.
"Organize the newly arrived displaced people, replace the 3,000 people who build the city, let the 3,000 people be liberated, as professional soldiers, train every day, use the fastest speed, and strive to improve their combat capability as much as possible before the departure in September. Wang Huan stood up and condensed.
Ma Xintian got up and said, "My lord, don't you want to follow the example of Tang Shi and set up tooth soldiers and internal government soldiers?" ”
"No, the tooth soldiers are too big to fall off, and it is very easy to become a soldier, but instead restrain the main general and gather the crowd for chaos, our soldiers, called Kuizhou soldiers are enough." Wang Huan's eyes were blazing, and he said in a deep voice: "Obey the general's orders, be loyal to the general, and do not belong to anyone else, the leader of the troops only leads the troops, not the troops, and all the food and salary are controlled by the general, so as to ensure that the mistakes of the Tang Dynasty will not be restored." ”
Zu Bian and Ma Xintian glanced at each other again, and they both saw a trace of awe-inspiring in each other's eyes, and then knelt down on one knee and hugged their fists together: "My lord is far-sighted, and the last general is very impressed, and I will obey my lord's order!" ”
……
Time flies, Wanshou Valley ushered in September in the intense training, the weather began to slowly become cooler, the hot weather gradually faded, although there are still autumn tigers raging, but the scorching sun is no longer so strong.
Wang Huan's textile workshop worked overtime, using the asbestos fibers mined in the mountains, and rushed to make 3,000 sets of white robes, because of the urgency of time, there was no inlay of iron leaves in it, but the rattan armor was very sufficient, and the people were each issued a set of armor and a white robe, and then wrapped in a white asbestos turban, holding an ash pole spear, and standing in a formation, immediately from a group of homeless barbarians, transformed into a majestic and solemn army.
At the armor awarding ceremony, Wang Huan personally distributed weapons and armor to everyone, and for each person, Xu Tiezhu asked on the side: "Who are you?" For whom? ”
Minzhuang replied loudly: "I am the people of Wanshou Valley, and I am fighting for Lord Wang!" ”
Then Wang Huan encouraged a few more words, replaced by one up, a team of 3,000 people, Wang Huan each met once, although at the end of the day, there are not many faces that can be remembered, but these 3,000 people, but everyone remembers him, and also remembers the two sentences he shouted.
This is what Wang Huan wants.
Next, it is time to set up the whole army.
Before this, Wang Huan was only roughly in accordance with the regulations of the 100-person team, 100 people were organized into a team, which was a rough type of militia management, basically there were no officers, anyway, those two battles were small-scale rout battles, winning with more people, everyone swarmed up, rushed up and beat them with fists, the enemy troops were panicked, and they could win by fighting indiscriminately.
In the future, it will be different, and that kind of pleasant and simple combat mode can be encountered but cannot be sought, and there should be a set of effective command system from top to bottom. Referring to the military system of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Huan decided to take a team of ten people, with one captain and one team deputy; The ten teams are one hundred households, and one person is set up in the general flag of one hundred households, also known as the captain of the hundred people; Ten hundred-person teams are 1,000 households, with one thousand presidents and two deputy thousand presidents; If there are more than 1,000 households, then there are 3,000 households in one battalion, and there will be one battalion general, and at present there are only 3,000 people, and there will be three 1,000 household officials and one battalion general.
Wang Huan led the camp general, the following three thousand household officials, Zubian and Ma Xintian each led one, the deputy thousand general manager was empty first, and the remaining thousand general, Wang Huan hesitated for a long time, and he didn't think of a reliable and stable person, so he had to take on the role first.
The earliest 100-member team was established as a special formation, serving as its own guard, and these people were all trained by Wang Huan himself, loyal and reliable, and stayed by his side as a teaching team and cultivated seriously.
There are a total of thirty people in the hundreds of households under the thousand generals, all of whom are filled by white-pole veterans, these people have followed Qin Liangyu to fight old battles and have rich experience, and they are reassuring to serve as junior officers.
As for the captain and deputy at the most basic level, they were filled by 300 people selected by Wang Huan from the Minzhuang Middle School in advance, and they fought bravely and experienced in battle, and they will be good seedlings of junior officers in the future.
The ten-man team is the most basic combat unit, limited by the number of weapon types, and can only be divided into players and pikemen, four of the ten people hold swords and shields, six hold ash pole spears, and the pikemen also wear mountain destroyers on their waists, and also serve as crossbow soldiers; The sword and shield soldiers used a round shield covered with iron sheet and a waist knife.
"Wait until you have firearms in the future, and then replace the sword and shield hand with the bird commander, and reduce one spearman to the big shield hand." Wang Huan looked at the neat ranks of horizontal and vertical columns, and secretly said in his heart, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and it is not easy to arm the army like this.
"Order the whole army, take a three-day holiday, go back to reunite with your family, and in three days, the whole army will set off to recover Kuizhou!" Wang Huan ordered loudly, and above his head, a big banner embroidered with the word "Wang" fluttered.
