Chapter Ninety-Three: From Battalion to Division

Liu Zheng returned to the Left Guard Camp overnight, and when he returned to the camp, he did not rest, but wrote a plan in the tent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Now that there are nearly 50,000 soldiers and horses in hand, the battalion-level structure is far from keeping up with the pace, and what is urgently needed now is to restructure the system, at the regiment or brigade level, or even at the division level.

Listing the names of his generals on the paper one by one, Liu Zheng pondered whether to improve himself on the spot, or to combine them in groups and match them together.

If it is promoted on the spot, there are more than 50 regiments at the regimental level, and 16 brigades at the brigade level, and there are still several holes at the brigade commander level that cannot be filled.

If the grouping is combined and matched, three brigades and one division, that is, five more divisions are counted as five divisions, from Zhou Yun, You Boda, Zeng Kaiyu, Zuo Yuanfeng, Hu Dongyuan, Qin Haiqing, Chu Yuanzhong, Xu Wenxu, Tian Hongda, Pan Feiyue, Pang Goudan, Jia Wenxiong These people select a few leaders, if you want others to obey, it is easy to go out of the 'mountain', this is not the result Liu Zheng wants, the army is the most taboo thing for those in power.

But if you want to only mention the brigade-level system, it is very inconvenient to command, after all, there is no telegraph and no telephone now, Liu Zheng suddenly made a difficulty, and he kept thinking about it almost dawn, but he didn't think about what to do, so he simply didn't want to, and slept first and waited for Old Man Wei to wake up and discuss with the old man.

When he woke up, it was almost noon, and he had eaten something casually to pad his stomach, and Liu Zheng asked the guards to invite Old Man Wei over.

"Old man, now we have more than 50,000 troops, plus auxiliaries and military doctors, craftsmen and farmers who transport heavy loads, the number is nearly 80,000, and the current establishment can no longer keep up with the form, so I plan to upgrade the formation, from the battalion to the brigade or division, but I found that there are many problems!"

After Liu Zheng said this, he told Wei Boyuan about his worries, Wei Boyuan nodded secretly and frowned at the same time, the matter of the army pulling the mountain is indeed a big taboo, but in the armies of all dynasties, there is no one who does not pull the mountain, this matter cannot be eliminated at all, after all, there is a difference between relatives and aliens.

"Virtuous nephew, as the saying goes, it's better to be sparse than blocked, pulling the mountain, you can't block it, after all, everyone has a difference between intimacy and alienation, even you, the master, can't be spared, such as the generals in the army, Zhou Yun and Zeng Kaiyu are obviously closer to you, it turns out that those veterans of the left guard battalion are much more estranged from you than others."

"So my suggestion is that it's okay to pull the mountain, but in the face of major rights and wrongs, you must be able to judge your personal likes and dislikes!"

Liu Zheng nodded, as the old man said, it is impossible for individuals to avoid the difference between intimacy and alienation, and preventing the mountain from pulling the mountain is the same as preventing the mouth of the people, it is better to block it than to be sparse.

"What does the old man mean? Promoted to the division level? How should it be arranged? ”

Wei Boyuan wrinkled his brows and pondered for a moment before he spoke: "As a general, you must not only know the military formation and the art of war, but also know astronomy and geography. Now among these people, only Zeng Kaiyu is the only one who can do this, and even Zhou Yun is not qualified! ”

"Alas!" Liu Zheng sighed helplessly and said: "Thousands of troops are easy to get, and it is difficult to find a general!" No way, who told us that we have no one, old man, we can only pull the general out of the army! ”

"If it is promoted to the division level, there will be five divisions, and there will be one more brigade, this brigade is easy to arrange, and now our people are buying horses everywhere, and this brigade will be built into a cavalry brigade! But it will be difficult to arrange the commanders of these five divisions! ”

Wei Boyuan can't answer, there can only be one voice in the army, and if there is a second voice, it is easy to have problems.

"Virtuous nephew, you have to watch the arrangement of this matter, and the old man won't intervene!"

Liu Zheng was slightly stunned, and then understood that this was Old Man Wei avoiding suspicion, and said with a wry smile: "Old man, why did you and I have to be like this before?" ”

Wei Boyuan just smiled and didn't speak, Liu Zheng had no choice but to say: "In that case, I propose a candidate, how about you help me refer to the details?" ”

Wei Boyuan nodded and said, "Okay!" ”

Liu Zheng pondered for a moment and then said: "Five divisions, Zhou Yun counts one, Zeng Kaiyu counts one, Qin Haiqing can too, Qin Haiqing has been in charge of recruit training during this time, and he has done a very good job, besides, he also knows some art of war, I heard that during this time, you have fought on the sand table with the old man, and you have won a lot?" ”

Wei Boyuan nodded with a smile and said: "That's true, Haiqing is a good person, he learns quickly, and he is very flexible in learning and applying, if I am not careful, I will also fall into his way." ”

"Hmm!" Liu Zheng nodded and continued: "Then these three people will be decided first, but there are still two divisions, there is really no one to choose from, Tian Hongda and other veterans of the Left Guard Battalion, for a general, for the handsome, it will not work, the only talent in their group that can be created is Pang Goudan, but this kid is too young, has no qualifications, and he may not be able to convince the public if he is forced to mention, this old left, Chu Yuanzhong and Xu Wenxu are also generals and not handsome." Alas, this nobody is really a headache! ”

Wei Boyuan smiled and said, "Lord, you can personally lead a division, so you only need to take one more person!" ”

Liu Zheng was slightly stunned, and then his eyes at Wei Boyuan brightened: "Old man, you reminded me, there is one in front of this handsome person!" Hey! ”

As soon as Wei Boyuan heard it, he understood what Liu Zheng was referring to, and his face was a little helpless, Liu Zheng stood up with a smile, and saluted Wei Boyuan and said, "The little nephew implores the old man to go out of the mountain, any division commander, okay?" ”

Wei Boyuan thought about it and agreed: "But, but we have to talk about it first, if there is someone available under Xian's nephew in the future, then I will abdicate the old man and make way for Xian!" ”

Liu Zheng smiled and said, "Okay, okay, then old man, let's assign the people under our hands!" ”

"Hmm!" The old man nodded and said: "I still say the same thing, pulling the mountain is inevitable, it is better to block it than to sparse it, just explain the rules to them!" ”

Liu Zheng nodded and said, "Well, in this way, let's divide it roughly first, and when it is really divided, we will also listen to their opinions!" ”

"In this way, since I also bring a division, then my division is called the Guards Division, and the number number is called the 101st Division, the composition, I am inclined to recruit soldiers, and the right to be a mentor is calculated, three brigade commander candidates, Yu Boda estimates that no one wants to want it, just bring it to me, the other two brigade commanders, the qualifications of the two guards under my hand are very good, one is Chu He and the other is Liu Dazhu, these two people have been with me for a long time, old man, you also know better, you should be able to take charge alone!"

Wei Boyuan nodded, and recognized Liu Zheng's words, Chu He and Liu Dazhu are indeed quite clever, usually when they play the sand table, these two boys have learned a lot.

"What about the second division, let's call Zhou Yun and Brother Zhou, the number number is 102 division, the deputy division commander or something, we will not arrange it, the candidates for the three brigade commanders, Tian Hongda, Pan Feiyue, Pang Goudan, what do you think?"

Wei Boyuan nodded again and said, "Yes, with Zhou Yun pressing the three of their old guards, these three can't make any waves!" ”

Liu Zheng smiled and said: "Then the second division is decided, and it will be expanded on the basis of the second battalion, the fifteenth battalion, the seventeenth battalion, and the eighteenth battalion, and the candidates for the regiment and below the regiment will be decided by themselves, let's not worry about this, and the next few divisions will be the same!" ”

Wei Boyuan frowned slightly and said, "Lord, are you too indulgent to them?" That's a lot of power! ”

Liu Zheng waved his hand and said, "If you don't give them some autonomy, how can you lead the team?" I believed them! ”

Since Liu Zheng said so, Wei Boyuan didn't say anything, and nodded silently.

Liu Zheng continued: "The commander of the third division must be Zeng Kaiyu, the number number is 103 division, Zuo Yuanfeng must give it to him, after all, except for Zeng Kaiyu, the other people can't convince him, and the other two brigade commanders I think are Chu Yuanzhong and Xu Wenxu, these two people have a good relationship with Zuo Yuanfeng!" Then the 103rd Division was formed on the basis of the 3rd, 5th, 8th, and 9th battalions! ”

"The commander of the fourth division is Qin Haiqing, the number number is 104 division, the brigade commander candidate, although Hu Dongyuan and Qin Haiqing don't deal with each other much, but on major matters, Hu Dongyuan is not ambiguous, just Hu Dongyuan, the other two candidates, it will be a little troublesome!"

Wei Boyuan groaned slightly: "Lord, have you forgotten Jia Wenxiong?" There are also many good seedlings in the ten to fourteen battalions, such as Li Gu, Ma Changtian, and Shen Xing, these three boys are good! ”

Liu Zheng knocked lightly on the handsome case, and only after a while did he speak: "That's it, old man, give Jia Wenxiong to Qin Haiqing, and let Jia Wenxiong lead the remaining brigade first, and after a while, I will arrange for someone to go in!" ”

"Oh?" Wei Boyuan looked at Liu Zheng suspiciously: "Virtuous nephew, isn't this person our old man?" ”

Liu Zheng stretched out his thumb in admiration: "The old man's brain is fast, this time I went home and learned a lot of things from my father, it turned out that Jiang Mingda, the third gun, was my grandfather's righteous son, that is, my uncle, I begged my father, let him run errands, see if I can pull Jiang Mingda over to help me, if it happens, put it there with Qin Haiqing first, and when the time is ripe, let him lead a division alone!" ”

Wei Boyuan was overjoyed: "Really? If Jiang Mingda can come, it should be the great joy of the lord, this Jiang Mingda, huh? The lord said that this person was the righteous son of the lord's grandfather? Is it the uncle? ”

Wei Boyuan was a little out of shape with excitement, although he had never fought with Jiang Mingda, but he had heard a lot of deeds of this person, and now in the martial arts, in addition to these old guys, Jiang Mingda's martial arts are the highest, if Jiang Mingda comes to help, it is really like heaven's help!

Liu Zheng smiled and said, "That's true!" ”

Wei Boyuan said with emotion: "Alas, I can't think of it, I can't think of it, alas, if Jiang Mingda's master, oh, is the grandfather of the lord, Mr. Luo is still alive, the lord's big thing can be done!" ”

Liu Zheng laughed and said: "I lost my life, I am fortunate to know that I am lucky, old man, fate is like this, don't force it!" ”

Wei Boyuan nodded, and suddenly thought of something, and said, "Then, doesn't you mean Ling Zun ......?"

Liu Zheng shook his head and said, "Since beating my mother, my father has ...... Alas! ”

Wei Boyuan understood, but shook his head regretfully and said, "Ling Zun is really an infatuated lover!" ”
