Chapter XVI Formalization
After the new and veteran joint camp and flag awarding, the expanded Huguang Town already has the appearance of a regular army, and what is needed next is a large number of rigorous and systematic training, as well as training on the battlefield in the future. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
When they were assigned to the battalions to train with the veterans, the recruits realized that the training in the first half of the month was simply a drizzle. Here, not only is the training longer, but the intensity is also greater and the requirements are more stringent. On the edge of the school field, there have long been a group of supervising sergeants armed with leather whips and sticks, watching the officers and soldiers in training with fierce eyes. If a soldier shows signs of substandard movement or the slightest sign of laziness, he will be immediately reprimanded by the officer and handed over to the supervising sergeants on the sidelines to be whipped.
In this environment, many recruits have suffered. Especially those technical classes, such as artillery and musketeers, will be unlucky if they move a little bit wrong. About this, the recruits of the artillery battalion felt it the most. In their eyes, the battalion officer Lord Wang is better, although he is more strict on the training ground, he will not do too much out of line, and he is also very concerned about everyone on the training ground. The most terrifying thing is that the big man with yellow hair and blue eyes, like a ghost, who came from nowhere, seems to be full of food and panicked, and tortures everyone all day long. Pushing gun carts, estimating distances, reloading ammunition...... Anyone who didn't do what he wanted would kick him a few times, and there would be a lot of scolding in the room, followed by other punishments. As for the punishment method, there are all kinds of things, it may be running in circles along the school field with solid cannonballs on his back naked, or it may be a handstand, etc. The recruits didn't know what grade the grimace man was, but they vaguely learned from the veterans that his name was Ma Heao, so they secretly called him "King Ma Yan".
While all the officers and men were training diligently, Pang Yue also made adjustments to some organs of the army. The General Staff Office and the Military Intelligence Department, which were directly subordinate to the Chief Military Officer, were renamed the General Staff Department and the Intelligence Department respectively, and the Supervision Department and the Medical Care Department were added.
Among them, the top officer of the intelligence department is still the director, and Ma Yuancheng is still the director, who is responsible for intelligence collection in all directions and the investigation of internal traitors.
The highest officer of the General Staff Department is the Chief Staff Officer, a position currently held by Deputy Chief of Staff Zhang Yunli. The main work of the General Staff Division is to assist the military commander in analyzing various intelligence, conducting pre-war exercises, formulating operational plans, and so on. Its specific organizational setup is divided into a general division that directly obeys the orders of the general army and acts with the general army in wartime, and a sub-division set up on each grassroots combat unit. Among them, the General Directorate consisted of an officer of the General Staff and thirty staff officers. In addition, sub-divisions and staff officers have also been set up at the unit level of the 1000 Corps and battalions, the staff sub-divisions of the 1000 Corps are composed of staff officers and five staff officers, and the staff sub-divisions of each battalion are composed of staff officers and 10 staff officers. The staff officers of each battalion and each team shall be nominated directly by the general staff officer and then reported to the general army for appointment or dismissal, and shall enjoy the same rank and treatment as the battalion deputy and the team deputy respectively.
At the same time, the General Staff Officer also has a special power, that is, to take over the command of the whole army when neither the general nor the deputy general is able to command the operation.
The main tasks of the Supervision Department are to supervise the enforcement of military discipline, to punish violations of military discipline, to be responsible for the recording of war results and exploits during the war, to be responsible for the evaluation of medals after the war, and to pay for the bereavement after the war.
After some discussion by Pang Yueyu, deputy chief soldier Zhang Yunli, and chief staff Tian Shizun, the first chief supervisor was Shi Wanchun, the former deputy of the Gangfeng battalion. Shi Wanchun is a native of Beizhili, and also belongs to the group of people who followed Pang Yue at the beginning, he is thirty-five or sixteen years old, old and principled, no matter who he is in front of, he only admits death, and is the best candidate for this position. …,
The Supervision Division, like the General Staff Division, is divided into the Directorate General and its subordinate divisions, and has more structures and members. The Directorate General consisted of the Chief Inspector and a number of clerks and 200 supervising officers and soldiers. In addition, combat organizations at and above the bureau level have set up supervision sub-divisions and supervision officers. The Supervision Divisions of each bureau are composed of a Supervisor Officer, a clerk and five Inspector Sergeants. The supervisory sub-divisions of each division consist of the Inspectorate, two clerks, and ten supervising sergeants; The supervision sub-division of each thousand corps is composed of a supervisor officer, three clerks and thirty supervising sergeants; The supervisory sub-divisions of each battalion consisted of a supervising officer, six clerks, and one hundred supervising sergeants. The supervisors of each branch are also nominated by the chief supervisor and reported to the chief for appointment and dismissal.
The Department of Medical Services, as the name suggests, is, of course, an institution set up to treat the wounded. It can be said that veterans are the wealth of the army, and those veterans who survived the rain of blood are the foundation of a strong army. It was with this in mind that Pang Yue decided to set up a medical department, and the generals could effectively organize themselves so that they could save the lives of more wounded soldiers on the battlefield in the future.
Unlike the General Staff Department and the Intelligence Department, the Medical Department is not a military organization, and its top management (not called the highest commander) is the chief medical officer, which is served by Zou Yuanhai, the former chief medical officer of Ganzhou Town. The main workplace of the Medical Department is the field hospital under the jurisdiction of Huguang Town, but at the same time, the combat units above the bureau level are also assigned to accompany the military and the auxiliary troops who have undergone ambulance training, and manage them in a unified manner.
In addition to setting up the General Staff Department, the Intelligence Department, the Supervision Department, the Medical Care Department, and other organs, Pang Yue also selected officers and men from the army who were brave and good at fighting and were bold and meticulous to set up a military reconnaissance unit -- the Reconnaissance Cavalry Unit, which directly obeyed his orders. It is organized into a division, the supreme commander is the general, and the more than 300 sergeants under its jurisdiction are cavalry, and if there are conditions in the future, each person is equipped with two horses or even three war horses. In the event of a war, the Mounted Cavalry was responsible for reconnoitering the route and terrain of the march and camping of the army, as well as guarding the perimeter.
With the joint efforts of everyone, the setting of Pang Yue was quickly realized, and various institutions planned were opened and improved one after another. The selected staff officers and supervisors began to travel with their entourage to the grass-roots combat units, and the reconnaissance cavalry team also selected enough qualified personnel.
Most of the officers and men felt a little strange about the newly established organs such as the staff sub-department and the supervision sub-department, because after all, it was the first time they had seen it, and it was almost unheard of before. However, some experienced officers soon anticipated the importance of these institutions in the future management of the battalion and in the march operations, and could not help but praise the master of the general for his ingenious conception.
Pang Yue did not take the words of praise from below to heart, because in his opinion, these institutions he set up were still relatively rough, and what the effect would be in the future still needs to be tested in actual combat.
However, seeing that the army under his command has changed from the defeated army that withdrew from Ogigang in embarrassment to today's regular army with all branches of arms and complete institutions, Pang Yue couldn't help but feel relieved from the bottom of his heart, and sighed in his heart that something could be done.
At the end of November, when the above new institutions were established, craftsmen recruited from all over the country also felt Chenzhou one after another. Pang Yue knew that he was going to start busy for a while, and like military training, the preparation of the General Manufacturing Bureau was also an energy-consuming matter.
