Chapter 216: Wang Yongan's Six Places
After a moment of silence, Wang Yongan suddenly asked: "Brother Fangchen, you have also seen part of the training of the Twenty-four Mixed Formation Association, do you think that in addition to the shooting training that needs to be strengthened, there are those that are not as good as the six towns of Beiyang?" ”
Han Linchun shook his head and said: "Brother Jingyun Xian is too modest, after I watched the training, even the six towns of Beiyang did not train seriously and hard, let alone the training subjects of your department, if your department's ammunition and weapons can meet the standards of the six towns of Beiyang, then the first six towns are not afraid at all." Brother Jingyun Xian, www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion, do you know the biggest problem of the Qing army today? ”
"Isn't it training?" Wang Yongan asked.
"It's not." Han Linchun said seriously.
"That's ......," Wang Yongan glared at curiously.
Han Linchun said with a smile: "Many Qing soldiers are unwilling to fight hard in the fear of the enemy, this fear of the enemy is because they are afraid of death, and secondly, many people are unwilling to die for the imperial court." If a soldier dies in battle, many people don't even know where they are buried, let alone give them a bereavement for their families. When I was in Beijing, I heard about your efforts in the resettlement of wounded soldiers, and even many commanders hoped that you could help them, and of course everyone knew that you would definitely not leave General Wang. ”
Wang Yongan smiled: "This is natural, if I don't help my brother, can I still help others?" Then Wang Yongan said: "Since Brother Fangchen doesn't want to embarrass me and bluntly talk about the shortcomings of the army, let's talk about the arsenal, Brother Fangchen, if you have any requirements, you can put them forward." ”
Han Linchun said with a smile: "In terms of money, Brother Jingyun Xian has already provided enough, but money is not spent like this, the establishment of a completed arsenal is inseparable from equipment, and it is inseparable from mature skilled workers, and the training of a military worker does not take a few years, it is obviously impossible to do it." Therefore, it is not realistic to establish a complete arsenal at the beginning, but we might as well establish a weapons maintenance institute and gradually cultivate military talents on this basis......" Han Linchun talked eloquently, and outlined the direction of the construction of the arsenal in the future, which made the messy Wang Yongan praised, Wang Yongan paid more and more attention to Han Linchun, and the historical cattle really have capital to be proud of, and called me Brother Fangchen again and again, such as Dezilong.
Han Linchun just smiled, but said in his heart what are your adjectives......
Regarding Han Linchun's job arrangement, Wang Yongan took great pains, because he obviously felt that the original command system was a little chaotic, but the Beiyang army has always been configured according to four courses and two places, and sometimes it is occasionally messy, but it is also caused by the limitations of the development of the army system. As a matter of fact, the military's modern command system has undergone nearly 100 years of development before it has formed a scientific and perfect system for later generations, so Wang Yongan decided not to use the command system of the Beiyang system, and he directly reorganized the four divisions and two divisions into six divisions.
These six major departments are related to the work, such as the life, death, illness, and retirement of more than 11,000 people of the 24 th Mixed Association, and they are the General Staff Office, the Adjutant General's Office, the Military Affairs Office, the Armaments Department, the Logistics Department, and the Military Judge Advocate General's Office.
The General Staff Office is mainly responsible for formulating strategic plans, specific operational plans, commanding the army, building the army, managing military academies, training in peacetime, training in wartime, and emergency response.
The Adjutant General's Office is responsible for the security of the headquarters, intelligence collection, information transmission (telegraph) and secretarial work, and has under the jurisdiction of the Security Section, the Clerical Section, the Telegraph Section, the Intelligence Section, and the Guard Battalion and Intelligence Battalion of the directly subordinate combat units.
The Military Affairs Department is mainly responsible for the evaluation of military merits of officers and soldiers, the examination of military expenditures, personnel arrangements, file management, military medical rescue, the placement of wounded soldiers, and the arrangements for retirement.
The Armaments Department is mainly responsible for the custody of ordnance, ordnance projects, weapons procurement, munitions management, weapons research and development, engineering construction, etc., and has jurisdiction over the Ordnance Section, the Arms Procurement Section, the Military Industry Section, the Military Construction Section, and the engineer battalion directly under the combat unit.
The logistics department is mainly responsible for the army's support, property management, financial control, material transportation, prisoner of war management, army image publicity, etc., and has jurisdiction over the financial section, material section, management section, transportation section, mobilization section, and directly under the combat unit baggage battalion.
The Judge Advocate General's Office consists of four parts: the Military Court, the Inspection Brigade, the Military Police Brigade and the Special Service Brigade. The inspection brigade is mainly responsible for detecting cases in the army, such as theft, embezzlement of public funds, embezzlement of military salaries, espionage infiltration, etc.; The gendarmerie brigade is responsible for arresting personnel who violate discipline within the army and supervising the conduct and discipline of soldiers; The Special Forces Brigade is mainly responsible for arresting, assassinating, murdering, sabotaging and other activities against external enemies that threaten the army.
Wang Yongan devoted himself wholeheartedly to army building during the month of his recuperation, and at the same time reappointed some of the army's personnel.
After the autumn, the construction and training of the 24th Mixed Association was in full swing, and the people of Yangzhou could see the military training like a diorama every day.
Although Wang Yongan rearranged the headquarters with many institutions, the responsibilities were clear, and the officers of the headquarters were also very accurate in their positioning, and they changed the troubles of wearing multiple positions and having no clue in the past, especially those officers who graduated from military academies, who were given heavy responsibilities in this redeployment and served as the heads of various sections under the six major divisions, and no longer worried that they would be excluded and attacked.
At the same time, Wang Yongan also made some adjustments to the understanding and appointment of the headquarters, making it clear that Feng Heng was the chief of the staff department, Li Yao was the director of the adjutant officers' office, Xiao Xiangshan was the director of the military affairs department, Han Linchun was the director of the armaments department, Luo Yinxian was the director of the quartermaster department, and Wei Daofeng was the director of the military justice department. After this configuration, the 24 Mixed Association has a complete headquarters, combat units, and logistics support units. Coupled with Wang Yongan's continuous investment, by the end of October, the strength of the 24 Mixed Association had been expanded to 7,000 troops, and the basic structure of each unit had been completely structured. After careful analysis, the General Staff Department believed that the total strength of the 24 Mixed Association could reach 18,000 men, which seriously exceeded Wang Yongan's assumption, so it was temporarily shelved.
At the beginning of November, Zhang Jian and some other members of the provincial advisory bureaus lost their way through Yangzhou.
They repeatedly submitted petitions to the Inspectorate of the Governor of Beijing to establish a cabinet in the Diet as soon as possible, but they were kicked around like a ball by the Inspectorate and various princes and nobles. The mood of the provincial legislators is getting worse and worse, and the hope is getting slimmer and slimmer, except for a few insistence, the rest of the people understand that they are really Xiucai rebellion, especially many southern legislators, seeing that the north is difficult to adapt to the weather in winter, and they are disheartened and leave Beijing. Not to mention now, even a hundred years from now, the CPPCC legislators will not have any rights. In fact, these people are a bit hypocritical, when will this parliamentarian really take power in China, Chinese has always been talking about dictatorship in co-governance action, many parliamentarians themselves say the same thing at home, they are used to talking by themselves but do not let others speak, and they are bent on asking the imperial court to establish a Western-style cabinet, but they do not know that the political system of every country needs to conform to the national culture, and if the Western model is imposed, it will cause the general embarrassment of India in later generations.
