Chapter 32 - Expansion of the Army
The morning after the pension was distributed, Zhang Yun asked the guards to recruit Tie Niu to come over. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Preparing to inquire about the situation of the displaced people, Zhang Yun planned to expand the army, and since Zhang Wen's death, Tie Niu has become Zhang Yun's hardcore cronies.
The affairs of these displaced people, including the workshop, are all in charge of the iron bull.
After a while, the iron bull came, and the handsome didn't know why he was in a hurry to recruit the iron bull over?
How many homeless people have come to us near our camp now?
What is the proportion of young and strong people?
Back to the marshal, the security department and the reconnaissance team will come back from outside the area almost every day.
A group of poor people, according to the census of the camp half a month ago.
The total population resettled near our base camp is close to 4 million.
Because of the order of the big handsome, the young man will be brought back first!
So now there should be 1.7 tens of thousands of strong men near our base camp.
Zhang Yu was shocked when he heard this, there is no need to go down to collect homeless people in the future.
Let's stop this work for a while!
You go out and call the six army commanders and the eighteen division commanders.
Tie Niu went out in response, Zhang Yun thought about it, there were one or two million strong men, enough to support his army expansion plan.
After the top brass of the army came, Zhang Yun announced his decision to continue the expansion of the army.
At the meeting, Zhang Yun told the top brass of the army that the next step is to attack the entire southwest.
And the strength of the six armies in our hands is obviously small, so the commander decided.
The army was expanded into 11 integrated corps, and each group corps had three corps, nine divisions, and 27 regiments under its jurisdiction.
Each group army will first have a tentative quota of about 50,000 people, but it must be preferred to be lacking rather than excessive.
Tomorrow we will go to the big school field to recruit soldiers, and the commander will let all the strong men come to enlist.
But you have remembered for me that if you don't pass the selection,
In any case, he can't be allowed to enter the army, and he can't be forced to make up the numbers. dragged the back of combat effectiveness.
After Zhang Yun finished speaking, the faces of more than 20 people below were different, but seeing Zhang Yun's eyes sweeping over, everyone couldn't help but agree in unison, seeing this Zhang Yun said again.
When you go down, immediately go and announce the new system of military pay.
The monthly salary of the privates, ten taels of silver, no more food,
At the same time, once conscripted into the army, each person will be given a settling-in allowance of 100 taels of silver.
As for the higher ranks, they will be increased according to the principle of adding 30% of the salary for each higher rank.
Again, if there is an army that does not recruit enough places.
Just leave it for later to make plans, you can conquer the city while pulling Zhuang Ding into the army,
But we must not recruit those strong men who do not meet the physical fitness of the soldiers tomorrow.
Zhang Yun repeatedly emphasized this matter, that is, he was afraid that the people below would not fill the quota and recruit children and the elderly, which would be funny.
As for the commanders and chiefs of staff of the eleven group armies, wait until tomorrow to recruit people, and then the commander will announce it, you can hear it.
Everyone agreed, seeing this, Zhang Ning waved his hand, and the six army commanders walked out first.
Everyone looked at each other outside, wanting to hook up with each other to find out the news,
But I remembered the power of the two major secret agencies, the security and the reconnaissance team.
I didn't dare to stay here, and we dispersed, as for how to meet in private.
Zhang Yun can't control it, but the next day Zhang Yun's crime will definitely be put on the table.
Who was General So-and-so with last night? In what location? What a document was said!
Zhang Yun set up the Security Department and the Reconnaissance Group, two special agencies.
The original intention was to monitor the internal affairs of the army, and as for the external intelligence, it was to beat the rabbit by the way.
Because he always believed that a strong fortress was always breached from within.
The female dog doesn't look back, the male dog doesn't dare to get on, as long as he doesn't sew himself, how can outsiders be separated!
After sending out all the high-ranking members of the army, Zhang Yun had another headache.
The question of the selection of commanders and chiefs of staff of the eleven group corps,
Zhang Yun has been hesitant, not knowing who to let to take the position,
At this time, Zhang Yun thought of Yang Feifei, the original prefect of Chenzhou Mansion,
Zhang Yun suddenly wanted to hear what he thought about this? Summoned the guards to him,
Since Yang Feifei came to this base camp, he has been doing nothing all day long, scurrying around.
Soon after, his family was taken over, and he became even more desperate.
wanted to do something, but Zhang Yun didn't trust him, he wasn't embarrassed or embarrassed here, and he had nothing to do all day.
This time, I finally saw Zhang Yun looking for him to ask questions, and I couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Could it be that I, Yang, have finally been transferred? hurriedly packed up, and followed the guards to see Zhang Yun.
After he came, Zhang Yun was impatient to play that trick that tested people's patience!
directly asked him to sit down, and there was no beating around the bush, Gu Zuo said to him,
Directly asked, Ben Shuai intends to expand the eleven integrated corps, but he has always been hesitant about who will do the positions of the high-level army.
Don't know who to appoint? Yang Feifei is a cunning person,
Just heard Zhang Yun say this, and it was reflected, but the marshal was worried that the six army commanders would not be convinced that his subordinates would climb to the same level as them.
Zhang Yun glanced at him, worthy of being in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, a person who climbed to the position of the prefect at the age of thirty.
This IQ is willing to bow to the wind, but it's a pity that he can't do great things simply by playing tricks.
However, Zhang Yun didn't pretend to be forced, to pretend to be profound or something.
nodded directly and admitted, Yang Feifei saw that he really guessed Zhang Ming's thoughts,
couldn't help but perk up, and then coughed his throat and was about to make a tirade:
Zhang Yun waved his hand, interrupted his rhythm, and said to her directly,
You just need to speak human words, and you can keep those clichés for yourself!
Yang Feifei was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Zhang Yun came from a humble background and was impatient to listen to these scenes.
then packed up his mood and sat upright, and then he spoke, this patriotic army and this foundation.
It's all handsome, what do you want to do? Do you need to think too much about what your subordinates think?
If the handsome man is in the future, after facing the south and becoming the emperor, he wants to reward a certain minister with something?
And the other ministers are not convinced, what will you do? I'm afraid we're going to have a big purge! This was the case with the founding emperors of all generations.
This time Zhang Yun understood, walked around the house a few times, turned his head,
Yang Feifei, there is still a lack of staff in the marshal's mansion, are you interested in coming over? Handle some copywriting for Ben Shuai, if you don't want to,
After conquering the southwest, Ben Shuai can let you prime minister a provincial government.
Yang Feifei was overjoyed when he heard this, and a fool wanted to go to the prime minister for provincial affairs.
That's at most just a feudal official, and if you follow the marshal, you will be a central minister in the future.
Yang Feifei couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately got up and knelt down to Zhang Yundao.
Extraordinary talents are shallow in learning, and they want to follow the big handsome and learn how to deal with government affairs.
In that case, you should stay today! Just help Ben Shuai deal with it,
The backlog of documents a few days ago, and the various approvals reported from various places.
Yang Feifei agreed, got up, and came to Zhang Yun's side to deal with these cumbersome government affairs for him.
And Zhang Yun was relieved, let the soldiers serve a pot of tea, and sat on the side alone,
Consider who should be appointed tomorrow as the commander and chief of staff of the eleven integrated corps.
The next morning, the sun had just climbed up the mountain, and the big playground on the edge of the tributaries of the Yuan River,
It was crowded with people, just like the burial of the martyrs two days ago,
Wang Er Mazi was also crowded in it, he was originally from Guangxi and followed Hong Xiuquan and others,
Since the Jintian Uprising, it has swept almost the entire Central Plains because of its upright character.
Let him offend his boss almost to death, and he has always been a small soldier who has never been promoted.
Every time I fight, I always rush to the front line, but I can't get fair treatment in a bloody battle.
During the Battle of Nanjing, he and the scouts of the Patriotic Army who infiltrated the city,
I have had close contact with them, and I have heard them talk about the generous benefits of the Patriotic Army, and the news that the Patriotic Army is searching for displaced people all over the world.
So after breaking through in the Battle of Nanjing, he deserted with his family!
Mixed in with a team of displaced people, all the way to this place safely.
Unfortunately, since then, the Patriotic Army has not expanded its army on a large scale.
He didn't get a chance to pick up his guns again, and this time his chance finally came.
Just when he was in a surging mood, the old lady next to him took his hand and said.
Erhu, don't go to the army again, our family finally broke away from the Taiping Army
Settle down in this place, this place has a good policy,
Life has hope, do you want to join the army again? Doesn't it make my mother worried?
Wang Ermazi is also Wang Erhu, and hurriedly comforted the old lady and said, Erhu will not go to join the army, your old man will go back first!
couldn't help but say, he sent his wife home, and then hurried to sign up for the preliminary exam.
The so-called first and second tests are all long-distance running, and of course, there is no condition here to choose more carefully.
After that, I ran for three days, and after the first test, I ran again until three days later.
All the exams were completed, and a total of about 370,000 recruits were selected.
As soon as Zhang Yun saw the results, he was relieved, plus the old troops that he originally had.
The total number of people is more than 400,000. , which can basically fill the establishment of eleven group legions.
As for the problem of too many recruits, it will lower the combat effectiveness. Zhang Yun never thought about it.
Weapons were given to a group of untrained peasants, who, like the Taipings, had never been trained in military training and never had drills.
To put it bluntly, it was a group of peasants who took weapons and did not beat the Manchus all over the ground to find teeth.
If it weren't for the corruption of the upper echelons of the Taiping Army later, they would have fallen too quickly.
Who is the surname of the world at this time, it is not yet known?
Day 4. In front of more than 300,000 recruits and tens of thousands of veterans.
Zhang Yun re-announced the expansion plan, and the whole army was expanded into 11 integrated corps, each of which had jurisdiction over the 27th regiment of the nine divisions of the three armies.
At the same time, after the order to announce the names of the commanders of the eleven group corps was read,
The people below have their own joys and sorrows, the original five old army commanders
Not surprisingly, all of them became group commanders, and six other newcomers also took the position
These six newcomers are the deputy commanders of the original Sixth Army, looking at the original deputy, who is at the same level as himself,
The five old army commanders couldn't tell what it was like in their hearts, but compared to the iron bull who didn't hear the name just now,
They got a little comfort and balance in their hearts, and at the same time they looked at the iron bull who didn't say a word,
A hint of sympathy flashed in his heart, Tie Niu was squeezed out of the army!
As one of the six old army commanders, Tie Niu didn't even get a single commander of the integrated corps.
And Tie Niu himself had a tense face, what he was thinking, only he knew.
