Volume 8: Chapter 286 of "Magnificent Rivers and Mountains": All Clans Are Soldiers
In order to cope with the reorganization of the corps in various battlefields, it is imperative that the main battlefield of the Han Department was outside the Saiwai, and the combat was mainly based on mobility, so that the regiment was mainly cavalry under the condition of relying on basic animal husbandry without a shortage of horses, and the five corps established before was not huge, which was affected by the condition that the regular combat personnel were insufficient, taking the leopard army as an example......
The formation of the Leopard Army has only one lieutenant in eight departments, and the number of soldiers in the combat unit (one) ranges from 4,000 to 5,000, that is to say, the four songs (five songs) form a combat unit; The number of personnel in special units (logistics department) has increased relatively, with a fixed number of 10,000 logistics personnel; Each combat unit has a scout battalion under its jurisdiction, and the basic number of scouts in the scout battalion is between 100 and 255 people.

So that is to say, the total number of members of the Leopard Army is about 50,000, and it is such a combat unit composed of 50,000 military personnel that has become an independent cavalry corps, and Lin Bin usually calls them an army.
Due to the new rise of the Han Dynasty, the composition of the members is relatively complex, the Han Department has a large number of slaves, and at the same time, the demand for slaves among the Han people is not large, so the role of slaves is not very prominent.
An army has about 50,000 regular troops, and at the same time, the legion has increased its subordinate units due to the existence of the war servant profession, and each legion has a different war servant. The number of servants under the Leopard Army has always been more than 100,000, so that means that the Leopard Army has 150,000 people, including the regular army soldiers.
As the clan continued to fight, the servants were promoted to the rank of freemen because of their military exploits. Free people can choose to leave the army to survive in the civilian population, or they can choose to continue to serve in the army, but if they choose to continue to serve in the army, they need to start again from an ordinary non-commissioned soldier, they enjoy an equal promotion system, and generally can quickly rely on their previous combat experience to climb to the rank of captain, even the commander and even the rank of the grass-roots officer, if you want to continue to the middle-level officer position close to the military merit is of course an indispensable part, but at this time it is a little difficult for the soldiers who have been converted into freemen and then served and climbed.
The military has quite strict requirements for seniority. This is aimed at the officer's loyalty to the clan (or the supreme commander), no matter how good the war is not recognized by the upper echelons, it is impossible to be promoted, and the army naturally has its own set of test methods. If a grassroots officer wants to climb to the position of a middle-level officer, it is difficult to obtain the recognition of the upper echelons, which requires a very cumbersome tempering period.
The Han Department currently has a military academy in Xilin, which only recruits meritorious descendants for education and trains the children of generals to become qualified soldiers. Teach some basic military knowledge. At the same time, this military academy is also the only state-run college in the world today.
According to Lin Bin's idea, Xilin will still set up three more colleges in the future.
The academy, which is jointly established by the Central Council and the Council of the Privy Council, does not recruit students from the outside world, and only accepts junior officers recommended by the military for further study. Due to the specificity of the establishment of the academy, the academy will not be responsible for the training of middle-level officers.
The second college will be purchased by Lin Bin himself, who, according to later generations, is the president of the college. The academy will also not recruit students from outside, and it will be mainly used to train mid-level officers recommended by the army for further studies, who will study in the academy. The main focus is to strengthen the understanding of tactics and the knowledge of leading leaders. Of course, it will not be limited to a limited number of aspects, and will distinguish between departments.
There seems to be duplication between the two military academies? Wasted resources? This is also a helpless thing, because it is limited by conditions and only a clear distinction can be made.
The third academy is a mixed system, which means that it is no longer limited to teaching military content. This college is also led by Lin Bin, the college no longer restricts the enrollment objects, people can sign up, they can choose the department they are enrolled in, they need to pass the basic test to be admitted, and the initial establishment period does not accept students involved in two departments, each student only teaches one knowledge.
Of course, Lin Bin knows that such an education system is very backward, he has no way to do it, everything is from scratch, I believe that as long as such a precedent is opened, there will naturally be people to continuously improve and reform, and he just needs to open such a door, as for the future things now worry about no effect.
No one will laugh at the education system is too simple, although no one has yet understood what such a system means, so it has not received the attention it deserves, but Lin Bin is very confident that it will not take ten years for people to realize the importance of education, and now he only needs a small amount of effort, but the benefits are infinite.
The progress of the nation requires knowledge, and the source of knowledge lies in learning, and the prerequisite for learning is to have a learning environment, and the environment needs people to build it......
Tongue twisters? That's progressive truth!
Since he wants to replace the existing dynasty to rule the Central Plains, he can't be unprepared, Lin Bin is currently preparing, the idea of establishing the academy is only a part, and he will also open more and more advanced knowledge doors for the nation.
The supreme ruler has such an advantage, and what he wants to get, it will be up to countless people to work tirelessly for a single idea.
I think it is absolutely necessary, but of course there are two choices: priority and delay, and the above is part of the precautionary measures, so the construction of the army is an urgent priority type.
Lin Bin had already determined the strategy of going south to fight for the dominance of the Central Plains, and although the time was not yet ripe, the necessary preparations were indispensable.
Military strength is a prerequisite for existence, and if you want to survive without the ability to protect yourself, it is just empty talk, so a nation that wants to progress cannot lack military construction, the so-called military construction of course includes a lot, but Lin Bin can start from the most basic aspect, that is, to organize his subjects to build an army!
The military superiority of the Han Department is naturally needless to say, her rise is based on a strong military foundation, a country that has risen from the flames of war in the first 30 years is the most important thing is the soldiers, which is also the basic condition for the survival of a country, so the soldiers needed to build an army are naturally very sufficient.
After Lin Bin issued the order to expand the three infantry corps, the news immediately caused a sensation as soon as it was conveyed from the Central Council, and this was when the Central Council had not yet announced the order to the people.
The Central Council is composed of officers, and the officers naturally have their own family members, and the first time they get the news is to tell their relatives, and families who have adult men who have not yet joined the army immediately start their own actions, and the parents strongly ask family members to sign up for the army, in order to have a place in their own family in the new army!
There are many reasons for this situation, the most important reason is that there are only a limited number of five Han legions, these five legions have long reached the saturation level, and there are no vacancies in the legions. There is a phenomenon of discounting the military merit established under this kind of service restrictions, so that basically no one thinks about it.
As for the Shence Army, which is directly under Lin Bin...... Ordinary people want to be a soldier is a luxury!
Lin Bin is still quite satisfied and happy with the enthusiasm of the children of the military system, but he will not give them any preferential treatment, the Han Department already has its own preliminary order, everything must be done according to the regulations, but it is also a walk-around scene, relatively speaking, the meritorious children still have their own advantages, which is also unavoidable.
Lin Bin's requirements for the infantry corps are different from those of the cavalry corps, and this time the infantry corps will no longer subordinate the combat unit of war servants, because internal affairs need slaves to supplement the labor force.
The Infantry Legion is only for the Free Folks, and an infantry legion has twenty ministerial combat establishments, and the subordinate units will be removed with the war minions and an additional logistics unit will be added, which is not directly under the leadership of the Legion Commander, but belongs to the Central Council, which is a necessary measure to prevent the Legion Commander from becoming too powerful and forming a large tail.
The number of soldiers under the command of each lieutenant must be 5,000, and the basic structure of an infantry corps is to have 100,000 soldiers, and the number of personnel in its subordinate logistics units is controlled by the Central Council, which is responsible for mobilizing the people according to the battlefield and combat situation.
The Han was a martial force, and people were eager for military exploits and captures in the war, so in a short period of three months, the three infantry regiments reached full capacity, and the initial training of recruits began.
Could it be that the legion reached full strength too quickly? Han Anguo, the chief of the Central Council, asked Lin Bin for instructions on whether to form two more infantry corps to reach the share of five corps, but this suggestion was rejected by Lin Bin without hesitation on the grounds that "the clan needs a good cycle", which Han Anguo was very confused.
In fact, if it weren't for the tension, a tribe with all the troops would not be a good thing at all......
