"How are you getting your soldiers and horses under your command now?" After waiting for this incident, Li Jing immediately rushed to the barracks, summoned Ning You, who was reorganizing the army, to come to discuss the matter of sending troops to Dingxiang, he really couldn't wait, and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity, if he could break the main force of the official army on the east road in one fell swoop, then there would be no one to stop him in the north of the entire Shanxi Town.

When Ning You heard this, his face was embarrassed, "Lord, it's only been two days, and the soldiers below are still familiar with the drill code, so it is difficult to form an army for a while, and I am afraid that it will be a plate of scattered sand to go into battle." ”

To tell the truth, Ning You didn't know much about the army, and since he joined the army, he has been confused, and he can't ask for the law when he trains the army, but judging from the results of the various armies, he obviously feels good about himself, but it's a pity that Li Jing made a book of drills that combines the future generations, and according to the training of the army, he found that if he came in strict accordance with the drills, he would be considered a rabble.

As the saying goes, the more you know, the more you are in awe, I used to be a stunned young man, I didn't understand anything, and I was naturally fearless, but since I beat Li Jing's guidance, I have been familiar with the drill code every day, but I am confused, relying on such a scattered army to fight, and I have no bottom in my own heart, and no one can pin the results of victory and defeat in the hands of God every time.

"That's right, look at me Meng Lang, okay, you and the whole army, I think if there is enough food and grass to prepare, you can become a queue in January, you can become a strong army in March, and after going into battle, if you can fight several times, you will be elite." Li Jing shook his head with a wry smile, looked at the soldiers below who couldn't stand well in the military posture, and sighed in his heart, if he could give his family half a year to complete the training of this batch of troops, let him hell with any tricks.

However, looking at this group of peasants who put down their hoes and took their spears and waist knives, at this moment, under the personal leadership of one general after another, exposed to the sun, still struggling to support, Li Jing was full of relief, and now he also has 20,000 or 30,000 horses under his command, although they are all temporary conscripted peasant soldiers, but under the temptation of money and food, there is no problem with the military household soldiers who are slack in training and abandoned in armament.

"My lord, a strong army must first sharpen its weapons, although our garrison battalion has more than 600 soldiers and horses, but each person has a spear, and there are only ten people with armor, not to mention armor and firearms, please also transfer a batch of them to supplement." Ning You finally met with Li Jing alone, where not to take the opportunity to complain.

I think that his garrison camp originally had some veterans and firearms and armor, and even a cavalry of thirty people who had been confiscated from the big clan, but Li Jing deliberately set up a new teaching battalion in order to attack Daixian County before, and all the elites of his subordinates were withdrawn, and they have not been replenished, and now his garrison battalion and the new fifth battalion are empty shelves, although there are enough manpower, but unfortunately the weapons can only be a spear per person, and there are not even a few pairs of bows and crossbows.

"Now the use of soldiers everywhere, and the imperial court soldiers and horses, the war situation is unstable, although there are some supplements at the moment, but the whole battle captured, the shortage of each department is very large, I am afraid that it will be difficult to replenish for a while, I have ordered someone to collect craftsmen, but unfortunately it is difficult to gather for a while, plus isolated from the outside world, if you want to buy some armor and firearms, you can't buy it with silver."

Li Jing heard him say this, he could only shake his head helplessly, and said bitterly, although he has a method of steelmaking, but he suffers from the lack of human hands that can be used, let an ordinary person operate, and he has to fry, the craftsmen of the late Ming Dynasty, although they are not familiar with the local method of steelmaking in later generations, but fortunately, there is a certain foundation, at least to operate, much stronger than farmers, but unfortunately it is all the way down, and I have not seen a few.

"You wait a little longer, first train the troops with peace of mind, if you achieve a strong army, then you will go into battle to fight with the officers and soldiers, and capture some of them." In Li Jing's eyes, the officers and soldiers are no different from the captain of the transportation brigade, aren't the firearms, war horses and armor in their hands all sent by the officers and soldiers? As long as there are people in your hands, are you afraid that you will not be equipped?

"That's it." Ning You knew that he couldn't get anything to add, at this moment all the armies were fighting outside, even if some were captured, it would be difficult to send them back to Chunxian for a while, and he asked more and said more, it was nothing more than to block Li Jing, so he didn't mention it.

After some time, Li Jing observed the training of the recruits for a while, and then reflexively returned to the pro-soldier camp, but along the way, he was quite thoughtful, although the fifth battalion has been established, and the garrison battalions in various places have also begun to drill in full swing, but the fourth battalion, which was originally three battalions with Tan Wu at the head, has mobilized peasants in various places, and the strength has begun to swell violently.

Taking today's war report as an example, Zheng Renbao reported that there were already more than 4,000 soldiers and horses at the head of his own camp, and Li Fugui also had more than 1,500 troops, and Li Mao was able to lead an army of 3,000 or 4,000 people to join Zheng Renbao in addition to the more than 2,000 people who stayed behind in various forts.

Not to mention the army under the jurisdiction of Guo Sheng on the North Road, the teaching battalion has two garrison battalions, which has exceeded 6,000, and the headquarters of Zhao Mosheng in the south also has nearly 5,000 people, counting the three or four thousand people left behind in various places and Chun County, all of them are counted together, and they have already exceeded 25,000 people, not even less than 30,000 horses, according to a battalion head of 1,500 people, I am afraid that 20 regular field battalions can also be organized.

That is to say, the generals at the head of each battalion, in fact, lead the soldiers and horses, far beyond the limits of their own authority, such an obvious position of small power and great power, does not meet the needs of development, besides, the generals of all walks of life, how much merit, it is time to get promoted, think like this, and wait until you return to the pro-military camp.

He started to plan, according to the military report, Zheng Renbao's department, it is more than enough to train three battalion heads, with what was said in the previous reorganization, it is enough to make up a brigade, according to Zheng Renbao's merits, it is enough to be a deputy general, and his own henchmen Li Mao and Zhao Mosheng are also enough to serve as deputy generals, and Tan Wu and Guo Sheng, who temporarily serve as a deputy general, is also possible.

In this way, the whole army has organized and trained three brigades and nine battalion heads, with Tan Wu and Guo Sheng two small brigades and four battalion heads, and the 13 battalions of the whole army with 20,000 young and strong people, which is enough to cope with the invasion of officers and troops from the north and south, and as a brigade with a larger establishment, it will be more flexible, after all, the fist is bigger, and the centralized command of one person can also have greater autonomy.

Thinking like this, there is no hurry or slowness, after all, at present, all the armies are fighting abroad, and it is difficult to determine for a while, just reveal the news first, improve the morale of the generals of the various departments, and let them know that there are more vacancies, as long as they make more meritorious contributions, they can be promoted, and there is a hope.

"Zhang Erma, how is the guard camp now? Can you play? Li Jing thought for a while, and suddenly felt that it was feasible, just recruit someone to supplement the details, and then he could send it to the whole army, so he directly asked the inseparable guards around him.

Zhang Erma, as a person close to him, naturally knew the current situation, and when he heard him ask, he immediately said in a deep voice, "Guard the camp up and down, always be ready, just wait for the lord's order, our brothers will definitely go to the soup and die!" (To be continued.) )
