Chapter 12 I feel that the mobilization system of the Ming Dynasty is very problematic
The operation seemed to go a little too well, and not only did we grab some trucks, but we also found some interesting things in the Russian camp. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
For example, an order to transfer 85 percent of the troops in the border defense station was transferred. It was written that the infantry from this frontier post would be transferred to the newly established Fourth Army to participate in the follow-up attack on Kulen. If it weren't for this order, our small army would not have been able to take down this border post of the Russians.
"These Russians are still as careless as before, and this order clearly states the destination and the troops they are in." I frowned. But the message from this order made me unhappy in any way - the Soviets launched a large-scale offensive not only in Khotan but also in Mobei. Although I suspect that the number of air warships there is not very large, the size of the army can be imagined.
Even for the Ming Dynasty, the Soviets were ten thousand times more terrible to take Mobei than to take Hotan: the Beijing Division would be directly threatened by the Soviets' vaunted mechanized army.
"I said, does our Daming's mobilization system still work?" I looked at Xu Xing with some concern.
Xu Xing, who read this order, shook his head slightly: "I have been peaceful for many years, the people are good at writing, they don't practice martial arts, and there are many people who can't use guns, even if they are Mongolian border people, they are ......."
"Well, when I didn't say anything. If you have something to say, you can just say it, so why say it so tactfully. "As soon as I saw Xu Xing's twisted appearance, I knew that the mobilization system of the Ming Dynasty must have collapsed to an appalling point. Not to mention anything else, in my hometown, the local government has already melted all the guns in the militia armed forces department for money, and can save a lot of maintenance costs as official benefits, and if you submit a year-end report at that time, you will definitely be secretly praised by the officials and heartily supported by your subordinates - Daming is such a situation. Although it is said that the border wars have been continuous over the years, and some areas have been gained and lost again, relying on the absolute population, economic and technological capabilities of the Ming Dynasty, it has always lived without danger. The general mobilization system set by Lai Yuejing, the Zhongxing concubine, was also used once during his Northern Expedition.
But even if the system doesn't collapse, I'm curious about what the mobilization system of 300 years ago can doβafter all, there hasn't been a major revision in 300 years. The government and the opposition do not look down on such a thing as general mobilization, first, because they are not needed, and second, the purchase of so many weapons is indeed costly and costly. Therefore, every time the military proposes to learn from the Taixi countries to establish a more complete and complete mobilization system, it will be criticized by a bunch of old scholars as "the law of the ancestors is immutable", "how can it be razed into Xia", "my heavens. The country has its own country here" to block back.
Da Ming, who independently completed the modernization of the huge volume and the world's first science and technology, is always a little arrogant.
It can be seen from the primary school textbooks of the Ming Dynasty: "Confucianism is the body, miscellaneous learning is the use, and Western learning should be used to check and fill in the gaps......"
The Ming Dynasty claims to be able to mobilize 100 million troops from its own territory and vassal states in wartime, and I am extremely skeptical of this. It's not that I'm not patriotic, but this kind of question can't be avoided as if it were a thief.
"At present, we can only hope that the border guards of Daming will give their strength." After putting aside our worries and resting for a while, we continued on the road to death.
The situation is very chaotic now, and it is estimated that it has been several days since the Soviet command found out that this border post of theirs had been terminated.
Sitting in Soviet military vehicles, some of them changed into Russian military uniforms, and we drove to Broken Leaf City.
"This is the information we got from Jinyiwei before we set off, the Soviet Fourth Mecha Division is stationed here, this division is the elite of the elite who has played a great role in the fight against the White Army and the Holy Roman Empire's intervention army, the last Duke of Hesse was killed by this division, which made the Roman Emperor angry and sick. But at this moment, it is estimated that it has also been transferred. Zhu Ya explained the current situation in Shattered Leaf City for us, "Our goal is not the location of this division, but the mecha repair factory that is supporting it. Our guess is that there might be five to ten working factory mechs inside. β
"Isn't there a troop stationed at this repair shop?" It is obvious that such a repair plant is certainly an important military facility.
"Normally, there is, but I guess not now, the leaders of the Soviets are really very bold, they want to break us down in one fell swoop before we react." Xu Xing shook his head, "Such a huge country can use all its strength at the beginning, and the wartime system of the red regime is really extraordinary. β
"What's the use of feeling this now, it's better to think about how to impeach Jinyiwei for dereliction of duty if he can go back alive." I half-jokingly said, "The Soviets were unaware of such a large-scale mobilization." β
"Perhaps the Soviets did not mobilize the whole country before the raid either, but simply delivered a surprise blow with the forces they had at hand." Zhu Ya shook her head, "The Soviet Union is such a huge country, how can the national mobilization not show any traces at all. β
After discussing the Soviets' system, we moved on to the plan for a surprise attack on Shattered Leaf City.
"Lord Zhen, you lead the second platoon and half of the fire support platoon to occupy the TV station, Zhu Ya, you lead the first platoon to occupy the municipal office, and I will lead the rest of the people to personally go to the Bishkek mecha maintenance factory No. 1." In the end, Xu Xing made a plan on the truck, "Lord Zhen, this plan will be bait, although the defense of the TV station is definitely the weakest, and it is estimated that there will be no resistance, but after occupying the TV station and announcing to the outside world that the Ming Empire has occupied Broken Leaf City, you need to attract as many remaining Russian troops in the city as possible, and at this time, I will immediately rush over to support you if I occupy the maintenance factory." β
Sounds good, but I don't have much resistance to risking my life as a bait, after all, this is an era of fighting for your life. But I still have a question: "What if we don't have a single mech in the workshop that we can use?" β
ββ¦β¦ That's also fate, after finding out that something can't be done, I'll blow up the factory and go to answer you. Xu Xing thought for a moment and said.
The answer is pretty standard. Alas, this Wei Guogong is not so stupid, and he knows that he wants to blow up the factory, but ...... It's not that smart.
"Before you blow it up, you should search for as much information as possible from the factory. Computer data, face-to-face documents, you can do it, and so does Miss Zhu. I reminded with a soft sigh.
Zhu Ya didn't talk nonsense, and nodded lightly: "I'll try my best." β
But Xu Xing was a little verbose: "Those materials are useless, right?" The industrial system of Soviet Russia is not compatible with our Ming Dynasty, and those confidential materials must have been ...... secret."
"You don't care if it's useful or not, take it out first, naturally there are intelligence officers and technicians in the rear to worry about this." Without waiting for me to speak, Zhu Ya reprimanded Xu Xing first, but Xu Xing didn't have the slightest expression of displeasure.
It seems that this Zhu Ya's identity is not simple......
