Chapter 23 The Military Rank System
Regarding the Mongols' suppression, Tan Feng soon received more news. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info because Tan Feng's subordinates are not without Mongols, and many of these Mongols are related to each other. Even every ethnic group inevitably has some scum, not to mention that the national consciousness of this Mongolian nation has not been generated, so it will naturally choose to betray those Mongolian nobles. Of course, this is also because of Tan Feng's promise that in the future, he could allocate a part of the grassland grassland to those Mongolians. In this way, the low-level Mongolian herdsmen were incited to launch a "class revolution" and then to fight the Mongolian aristocracy.
So Tan Feng quickly knew the relevant situation, and he was also prepared.
"Commander, we currently have about a thousand Han cavalry. They are all trained according to the methods given by the commander, and our training team is working overtime to train all kinds of grassroots non-commissioned officers, and many of the first to join us have also been selected as non-commissioned officers. We currently have a total of more than 1,000 Han cavalry, and the rest of the Mongol Han army is about 500 people. Female knight Wang Jingwen said.
Since Tan Feng had plundered many Han people in the Northeast before, he forced these Han people to join them. Many of these Han Chinese could ride horses, and many young people would also be forcibly incorporated into the cavalry units. As for the training method, it is to refer to the method that Tan Feng trained Wang Jingwen at that time, and directly coerced him violently. In the end, these Han cavalry were quickly forced to learn to ride in the shortest possible time, and there were also queue charges.
As for the rest, it is up to them to fight on their own. Of course, Tan Feng has another biggest advantage, that is, he has a teaching team. The training team can train those grassroots non-commissioned officers as soon as possible, and with the non-commissioned officers at the grassroots level, it can ensure that those grassroots units have a qualified soldier leader to be responsible for leading them, thus ensuring the combat effectiveness and stability of the grassroots units. This grassroots "head of the army" is a characteristic that the Mongols do not have. This "soldier head" is the most important core of Tan Feng's troops in the future.
With qualified non-commissioned officers, it is very easy to form a combat unit at the grassroots level into combat effectiveness, even if the personal quality of the soldiers at the bottom is poor.
"Okay, we now also have the establishment of two cavalry regiments, and now I personally lead one cavalry regiment, and you will lead the other cavalry regiment. The rest of the people formed a reinforced company and let Xu Qifeng serve as the company commander. In the future, when the number of people increases, it can continue to expand. Tan Feng said.
Tan Feng soon announced the establishment of the army, especially the current formation of two cavalry regiments, temporarily named the First Cavalry Regiment and the Second Cavalry Regiment. Of course, it is also the reason why Tan Feng does not seem to make the establishment too complicated at present, because if this preparation is too complicated, it will definitely cause various problems. It is also a good way to arrange one, two, and three directly.
Of course, Tan Feng is currently personally leading the first cavalry regiment and letting his woman Wang Jingwen lead the second regiment. The remaining cavalry company formed a reinforced company, led by Xu Qifeng. Other miscellaneous units will be integrated into the Marine Corps and some other logistics organizations.
"Regarding this, we will also form an infantry battalion, which will be directly under the command of the headquarters." Tan Feng said.
Tan Feng organized some strong Mongols and some Han Chinese who were not suitable for horseback riding and turned them into an infantry battalion. In this way, the mixed troops of the Han and Mongolian ethnic groups will directly belong to the headquarters to be responsible for commanding, and the so-called headquarters is actually Tan Feng alone. In addition to being in charge of the first regiment, Tan Feng's main job is the commander of the Han Guangfu Army, so this infantry battalion directly belongs to him to command.
Not enough for this infantry battalion, there are no firearms at present, and they don't have real firearms, they are just cold weapons troops. Even on the grassland, Tan Feng really relied on cavalry, only cavalry. For a long time in the future, cavalry will become Tan Feng's biggest killer weapon, after all, the firearms of the Zheng era do not have an absolute advantage, even in the West until the Napoleonic era, there are also many cavalry, and the role of cavalry is still irreplaceable at present.
"Jingwen, I currently plan to use the military rank system for the sake of unified command!" Tan Feng said.
"Rank?" Wang Jingwen didn't quite understand what this thing was.
Tan Feng took the initiative to say: "It's very simple, the military rank system is that as an officer, a military rank will be awarded according to comprehensive factors such as rank, seniority and so on. This military rank is a collection of ranks, qualifications, military exploits, etc., representing the honor and identity of a soldier. ”
"Even, on the battlefield, once the soldiers are scattered, they can't find their commanders, and the commanders can't find their own soldiers, which is also a common thing. At this time, the role of the military rank system was also reflected, and in the chaotic battlefield, the high-ranking officers and soldiers had the right to order the officers and soldiers with the lower rank. In the chaos of the battlefield, once the army is broken up, those with lower ranks are required to obey the orders of those with higher ranks unconditionally. This will help standardize the command system on the chaotic battlefield and reorganize the command system as soon as possible, so as to ensure that everyone can fight in peace and restore combat effectiveness. ”
Tan Feng knew the benefits of this rank system, because this rank was very useful. It not only represents the honor of soldiers, but also strengthens the sense of honor of soldiers. It also plays an important role in restoring the command system as soon as possible on the battlefield. If there is no rank, in the chaotic battlefield, officers and soldiers often do not know each other, and this situation is very sad. So that they will definitely cause all sorts of troubles, the soldiers will not be able to find the officers, and the officers will not be able to find the soldiers.
In fact, from a macro point of view, there are not many soldiers on the battlefield, on the contrary, why can many troops win more with less? In the Battle of Chibi and the Battle of Huangshui, once a large-scale army was dispersed, it was easy to be easily wiped out by a small number of troops. As for if Cao Cao had a military rank system back then, even if the troops were temporarily dispersed, those soldiers could quickly follow the order standards of the military rank system and let the high-ranking people reorganize the command system as soon as possible to counterattack. In this way, history is enough to rewrite, Cao Cao is really likely to unify China, and then there will be no Wuhu chaos or anything.
"Of course, history has no ifs, and Cao Cao's affairs let him pass. But we can't afford to be negligent. So I thought about it for a long time, and I also adopted this rank system, so that the chaotic soldiers could recover their combat effectiveness as soon as possible and continue to carry out their tasks. In this way, we can truly ensure that the army cannot be defeated, and even if it is dispersed, it can quickly reorganize the resistance, so that the hope of victory is great. Tan Feng said.
