The heavy snow, which had been falling for three days, finally stopped, but now the sky is still gloomy, and the cold wind is gusting, and it is very cold. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The so-called snow is not cold, but the snow is cold, and the weather at this time is more unbearable than when it snows.

But soldiers have a military mission, and they must fulfill their duties, no matter how cold or hot it is.

On the training ground, the earth-shattering horn sounded everywhere, as if a loud roar could drink away the biting cold.

On this training ground, it is easy to distinguish between recruits and veterans, and most of the veterans are neatly dressed, and even running circles around the training ground are neat and consistent.

In addition, veterans have a relatively high degree of freedom, and in addition to the basic running and warm-up every day, they will be led by the commanders of each unit to carry out a series of military training such as physical fitness, firearms, stabbing fighting, tactical movements, and so on.

As for the recruits......... It's all gathered here to learn how to distinguish between left and right, how to line up.

"You fucking are the worst soldiers in the labor and management belt, and it has been half a month since they entered the camp, and some people can't even tell the difference between left and right, and it took a stick of incense to gather for a long time, and it's a mess, it's really embarrassing for our Suzhou New Army!" Guo Sheng stood in the middle of the queue, scolding and scolding.

The generals in charge of training are generally like this, and they will always belittle the recruits at the beginning, saying that they are the worst, some of them are scolding, and they will even say that the other party is not even as good as shit.

But once the recruit completes his transformation and becomes a qualified soldier, the instructor will always be relieved and say, "You are the best soldier I have ever bred." ”

Guo Sheng brought a total of three soldiers, and the first class only had 2,000 soldiers, but at that time, he was still taking care of the 20,000 recruits on the Qi family's side.

In the second session, 5,000 recruits were trained, and at that time, almost all of the Qi family's troops had become veterans, so it was relatively easy.

Now this is the third year, and 10,000 recruits were recruited only half a month ago.

After Guo Sheng scolded and scolded, he immediately waved his hand and said loudly: "Okay, okay, what are you doing here?" Hurry up and bring it back to each department, strengthen training, a group of recruits, it's annoying to watch! ”

After explaining to the soldiers, Guo Sheng found a remote place, lit a cigarette, and secretly thought about something while looking at the training in front of him.

He did have troubles recently, but he didn't bother this group of recruits, in his opinion, the progress of this group of recruits was much better than the previous two sessions, after all, the first two sessions were basically in the process of exploration, and many things had to be solved by him personally.

Now those veterans have been brought out, and those who have performed well have even been directly promoted and transferred to the new army to be responsible for training recruits.

But things are annoying, and he saves trouble now.

In the past, I used to train every day, and I didn't feel anything when I was so busy, but now that I am free, I find that I have not done anything for most of the year, and I am only responsible for military training, and I have brought three sessions in this area.

In the past, he was also a person who fought on the battlefield all year round, and after leaving the battlefield for so long, his heart would always be a little empty.

In Guo Sheng's opinion, even if he goes to Chongming Island to garrison, it is more comfortable than being idle in this military camp, at least on Chongming Island, he can occasionally go out to suppress a bandit, chase those dog officials who have taken refuge in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and beat them to relieve their anger.

Seeing that Guo Sheng had disbanded the training, Li Hongfei came to Guo Sheng's side and said, "When did I say that you kid is still addicted to smoking?" It's not good to eat alone, so bring me one. ”

Guo Sheng turned his head and found that it was Li Hongfei, so he quickly threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, and put his legs together, his right hand was quickly raised from his chest to his temple, his five fingers were together, his palms were slightly turned outward, he made a standard military salute, and said loudly: "The First Division of the Suzhou New Army, the division commander Guo Sheng, has seen the prefect!" ”

Since it was a reform, Li Hongfei simply changed the establishment of the army and the etiquette.

The reform of the establishment drew on the establishment of the Chinese army in later generations: squads, platoons, companies, battalions, regiments, brigades, divisions, and armies.

There are ten fighters in one squad, and there are twelve people in addition to the main (deputy) squad leader.

A platoon consisted of three squads, a company consisted of three platoons, plus a cooking squad, and the number was about 120 people.

A battalion has four companies and the number is about 500 people.

A regiment is equipped with three battalions, and a standard regiment has a number of 1500 people.

A division includes five to six regiments, plus the second-line troops subordinate to the division's logistics office, such as chariot grooms, rut heavy soldiers, etc., plus the division headquarters guard company, a standard division is about 10,000 people.

A brigade is two regiments less than a division, and a standard division is 10,000 people, so the brigade number is about 7,000 people.

As for the military ...... There will be no army in Suzhou, and this kind of highest military unit in the country can only be drawn up by Zhu Youzhen himself.

In the new army of Suzhou, except for the absence of a political commissar, the rest are similar to the Chinese army in later generations, and even the troops above each regiment have set up a staff department, and when fighting, the superior will issue the combat mission to the regiment commander, and the role of the staff department is to help the regiment commander plan to complete the task, and the regiment commander only needs to read the plan of the staff department, and then decide whether it can be implemented, and who will implement it.

The reason why Li Hongfei completely reformed the army establishment was because the army establishment of the Ming Dynasty was too general and the division of command was not detailed enough.

Cold weapon war, that is, the more people, the better, the leading general roared, everyone copied the guys and swarmed up, whoever instigated first, who lost, but this tactic is no longer applicable to Li Hongfei's Suzhou New Army with all firearms.

And another reason is that Li Hongfei's official rank is too low, but his power is quite large, a four-rank prefect, but the army under his command is more than the ordinary general soldiers, although Zhu Youzhen specially arranged, but some taboos can still be avoided.

In Li Hongfei's army, there is no need for the regular official positions of the Ming Dynasty, so when commanding a war, pull out one or two divisions, even if everyone knows the number, they will not say much, after all, people do not call themselves general soldiers or anything like that.

And a division commander who has not been officially affirmed by the imperial court, although there are more troops under his command, but the official rank and grade are there, and everyone can only be classified as the leader of the local rebel army and the like.

In this way, the embarrassing situation brought about by the official rank is just avoided.

As for the military salute, one is to show the equality and mutual respect of officers and soldiers.

The other one......... Since even the military system has been changed, what does it matter if the etiquette is changed?

Besides, Li Hongfei may still lead the troops to the expedition in the future, but he is a person who doesn't even want to kneel for the emperor, and he uses the military salute of the Suzhou New Army to pay tribute to the general soldiers from all walks of life, which happens to be able to resolve this embarrassment.
