Since the death of the Tang Dynasty, the ecological environment of the river in Guanzhong has been seriously damaged, and Jingshui, which originated in Jingzhou, and Weishui in Longxi, carried a large amount of sediment to the south, and converged in the northwest of Lintong County, forming a number of mud swamp sandbanks. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Info Bashui and Chanshui originate from Zhongnan Mountain, belong to the Weishui branch, and meet five miles northwest of Baqiao Town, forming a triangular sandbar.

Unlike the later Bashui River, where the surface of the river was polluted with cheese-like foam, the river in this era was abundant, reaching more than four zhang at its widest point, and could carry small and medium-sized merchant ships. Therefore, on this sandbank, a large number of shops and warehouses have now been moved, and all the houses and courtyards are surrounded by high walls, all of which belong to the Northwest Army Lecture Hall.

The miscellaneous military horns were withdrawn along with Jiezhen, and the current Northwest Army is just a general name, and the officers and soldiers also privately call themselves the Kwantan Army, the Guannei Army, and the Longxi Army. The former is collectively referred to by region, and the latter is the prince of Suizhangyue, but it is officially called the Northwest Army, which is not official.

From afar, I can see the towering vermilion archway, the plaque with black lacquer and gold characters has the words "Northwest Army Lecture Martial Arts", and the signature in the lower left corner is actually sealed and thick, and the handwriting is upright and thick Wei tablet body.

Zhang Yue felt a little regret in his heart, he didn't care about these things, his big characters were still too ugly, and the small characters could still be used to approve official documents. A hundred steps forward through the archway is the main entrance of the martial arts hall, according to the architectural pattern of this era, there is a pedestal as high as three feet, which makes the carriage not go up, visitors regardless of whether they are high or low, they have to get off before the steps.

Zhang Yue did not notify in advance, and Wang Yanchao and Zong Jingcheng and other generals did not come out to greet him, Liu Guangye had to take Zhang Yue's waist card and the warrant stamped with the big seal of "King of Longxi" to come forward to verify, and then entered the door to register under the leadership of the goalkeeper.

As a result, the officers on duty at the registration office of the guards inside the main gate were alarmed, and two Bai commanders and two staff officers rushed out with soldiers, all waving their hands and shouting: "Line up in front of the door!" Welcome! ”

As soon as Zhang Yue jumped out of the carriage, he saw two rows of soldiers with guns and knives standing up straight on the steps in front of the door, and a group of soldiers poured out of the main gate, about fifty people lined up in five vertical columns, ten horizontal rows trotted out, and quickly extended to both sides with the four main generals as the center under the steps in front of the door, and in the blink of an eye, they were rearranged into ten vertical columns and five horizontal rows, and then reported the number, and the speed was dazzling.

"All of them! Attention! Salute! The tall Bai Chang still wore a short red cotton jacket and fat army trousers, covered with fine scales and light armor, and knee-length black cowhide boots, but the nitrate polishing technique was still poor, and it was not oiled, and the leather boots were not so bright, but they were also very good-looking. Bai Chang stepped forward a few steps, stomped his feet, raised his hand on the side of the helmet and saluted, and shouted: "Zhang Dahu, the envoy of the front door of the Wutang and the sixth commander of the second battalion of the Security Division, led the headquarters to welcome His Royal Highness the King of Longxi to inspect!" Please instruct if necessary! ”

The establishment of the Jiangwutang Guard Division is a regiment, of course, it is also composed of excellent soldiers and officers, and it will leave the unit at any time. This is the appearance of the future imperial soldiers, Zhang Yue was quite satisfied, although it was very inconvenient to wear a purple robe official uniform, he still stood up and raised his hand to return the salute, waved to the soldiers behind, and said loudly: "I now order your department to receive the royal entourage, and one of the staff members will lead the king to the main office, and the rest of the people will continue to be on duty!" ”

"Our department will obey the order!" Bai Chang saluted again and turned around and trotted away, waved his hand and assigned a group of soldiers to wait for the reception attendants, and the rest of the soldiers ran with him into the main gate, but it was not over, and he had the responsibility of receiving guests as the envoy of the front door, and at the same time he had to report to the chief of the superior security department, and finally reported to the supreme principals Wang Yanchao and Zong Jingcheng.

Don't underestimate these, there are rules and regulations everywhere, but the etiquette of the martial arts hall is divided into daily, grand, and special, and now it is the daily etiquette. If the latter, it is a large army corps coming, or a high-ranking official with a large group of civil and military personnel to visit, and notice in advance, then a full guard of honor must be invited to greet him outside the archway.

However, the etiquette specifications are not high, because Zhang Yue is notoriously disgusted with the honor guard lineup and the prestige. In this era, everything talks about a "courtesy", not to mention officialdom and the army, that is, the common people of the people meet each other, and the humility and courtesy are pulled and pulled for a long time.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the King of Longxi!" A bearded guy with a full chin in front stood at the foot of the steps and stretched out his hand to lead the way, grinning and showing a mouthful of white teeth.

Seeing this guy's rugged appearance, Zhang Yue really had some doubts in his heart that he could do a good job as a counselor, which was not only in charge of military law, but also had to do a lot of copywriting, accounting, and logistics. Thinking of this, Zhang Yue asked, "What's your name?" How many years have you been in the army? ”

"The original name of the humble post was Liang Liqi, and he changed his name to Liang Xinchang when he joined the Huining Teaching Camp, a native of Huizhou, who once accompanied General Liang Guibi to Liangzhou, Hehuang, and Xia Sui, and served in the army for four years!" Liang Shenzuo replied.

It turned out that he was born in Liang's Qiang, Zhang Yue remembered that Liang Guiben was really not good at reading and writing, and he was still the newly formed head of the Huining Township Corps, and he and his second brother Zhang Cheng had a concurrent position in the Hehuang Governor's Mansion.

Walking into the front yard of the main gate, Wang Yanchao got a report to greet him, and after seeing the ceremony, the two passed the door together, Zhang Yue asked: "I don't know where the class is located, go and see it first!" ”

"Because the students who are enrolled are all grassroots officers or veterans, after every four astronomy classes, there is a one-day school field or field training martial arts class. Not to mention the martial arts class, the literature class needs to start with literacy teaching, there are three levels of elementary, middle, and high school, and there are currently 2,500 students, and there is still a shortage of instructors. On the crash course, it is much easier to teach officers with a certain level of literacy. Wang Yanchao said with a smile.

The purpose of the crash course is different, and the five divisions reorganized from the town soldiers need a lot of military supervisors, and if the military envoys from Bai Shenzuo to the division supervisors are incompetent or indiscriminate, this will directly lead to the fact that the entire unit's military supervision system is in vain, and the military police do not know how to supervise military discipline, so how can the minority manage the majority.

Zhang Yue pondered for a moment, and replied as he walked: "When the seven divisions meet, another training battalion will be set up at the headquarters of the big battalion, and the middle and senior officers will return to the furnace." If the weather is cold, I won't pull it out for training, and the soldiers will also be cleaned up by the whole army! ”

"This ...... It is also feasible to use the commander to lead the troops to study on their own, that is...... It doesn't seem like there is enough pen and paper textbooks! Wang Yanchao smiled bitterly, after a long time, he gradually saw the good military discipline of the Northwest Army, as well as the super speed when transferring troops out of the camp, and slowly had a sense of belonging to this army.

For an army, a sense of belonging is very important, whether it is an officer or a soldier, if there is a sense of belonging, they will spontaneously and actively assume their responsibilities, take the initiative to cooperate with the superior unit, and urge the subordinate unit to carry out the order. From this, we can also see the cohesion, centripetal force, and internal unity of an army.

As a commander, there is no brave name, no outstanding achievements, all in the strategy. Strategizing is actually to prepare sufficient logistics for the army in the big tent of the Chinese army. What is a decisive victory thousands of miles away, that is the business of the front-line generals.

The Chinese army is generally thousands of miles away in the rear, and in this era when transportation depends on walking and communication depends on roaring, the temple calculation decision only decides whether to fight or not. Where to fight and how to fight is up to the front line. Therefore, in this regard, Wang Yanchao has suffered defeats, and his outstanding military exploits are not many, but his rear coordination ability is not inferior to Xuan Chongwen.

Behind the office, there are several warehouses rebuilt from the compound is the classroom, Zhang Yue visited all the way with Wang Yanchao, and read the textbooks of the crash course and the junior high, middle and high school levels, which is the first teaching camp built after the war in Huining in the third year of Guangshun, compiled by Zhang Yue, and later improved many times, revised with "Infantry and Cavalry Drill Code", "Military Discipline and Military Law", "Establishment and Military System", "Tactics, Campaigns and Strategy", "War History Cases of Past Dynasties" and so on.

After six or seven years of accumulation, successive generations of training battalion commanders have created some teaching materials, which have been divided into many categories and have been very detailed, but the textbooks are all hand-copied and bound by line, and the officers have copied and passed them on to each other.
