The decision to promote Wang Jue to the youngest lieutenant general in the empire was only a simple promotion decision, so the news was delivered relatively quickly. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info The reform of the 29th Army and the matter of the military flag were decided on the third day after discussion, so the three things began to be implemented almost at the same time, and when they finally arrived at the front line in Liaodong, the time was different.

"Long live the Emperor!" When Wang Jue and Yang Zizhen were still crying and laughing about the matter of the Tengyun Qinglong Battle Flag, Wu Yan, the commander-in-chief of the Praetorian Guard, on another hill in the New Army, reported loudly at the door, and walked into the Supreme Headquarters of the New Army. His new leather boots made a nice clatter on the concrete floor.

"Two days ago, His Majesty the Emperor personally issued an order that the Praetorian Guard should distinguish between the army in terms of etiquette, and in the future, officers with the status of the Praetorian Guard must shout 'Long live the Emperor' in the greeting salute, and officers with the status of the army must shout 'Long live the Empire' in the greeting salute to show the difference." After entering the door, Wu Yan stood upright and said the first thing he did when he came here: "The promotion of this instruction will be supervised and implemented by Dongchang and Jinyiwei. ”

Since yesterday, Wang Jue has already ordered that the new army begin to conscientiously implement this new regulation...... Although this is not essentially different from patting oneself on the back, it is to imitate the "patriotic education of soldiers' loyalty to the monarch" launched by the German emperor, and pay close attention to the loyalty of grassroots soldiers.

The Praetorian Guards in Liaodong had just been kicked out by the Jinyi Guard, and the Jinyi Guard commanded Li Keshou to cut off contact with the Praetorian Guards directly for fear that Zhu Mu would be suspicious and impeached by the minister. The headquarters of the Praetorian Guard was also far away in Liaodong with Wu Yan, and the new system had not yet been established for a while, and it was too late to receive this order. Because the new army and the army use a unified communication channel, they knew about it earlier, but because there have been a lot of things recently, Wang Jue didn't think to remind the commander of the Praetorian Guard.

Now that Wu Yan mentioned this matter, Wang Jue also felt very embarrassed, and did not remind his colleagues, which was indeed a little inappropriate. But fortunately, Wu Yan didn't seem to plan to entangle with Wang Jue about this matter, and after passing by, he talked about the second thing.

"The official uniform of the Praetorian Guard has been determined, and in order to save costs and to show distinction, the uniform of the Praetorian Guard adopts the same style as that of the new army, except for the cuffs and neckline, which are trimmed with black fabric." Wu Yan handed Wang Jue the military uniform style drawn by the clothing factory, and said the purpose of his visit to the headquarters this time: "The clothing style has been issued to the national army, and it is expected that the notice will be completed in 3 months." ”

"I see...... So, when will the Praetorian Guards start to change their outfits, and when they need to occupy a share of supplies such as wagons, please contact the officers of the logistics department in time. Wang Jue looked at the military uniform of the Praetorian Guard, and nodded to indicate that he already knew about it.

Wu Yan did not leave, but stood in front of Wang Jue's desk and continued to report: "Your Excellency, the 3rd Division of the Praetorian Guard has arrived at the front line, and its equipment is much better than that of the 2nd Division, equipped with 75 mm caliber field guns, and has brought at least 100 trucks and hundreds of war horses...... Please arrange the location of this division. ”

Wang Jue only thought about it for less than a second, and directly assigned the division to belong: "According to the usual practice, it will be handed over to the newly formed 3rd Army, and Wang Yan will command it on behalf of the army commander!" In the future, if new Praetorian Guard troops are added, this rule will be followed! The coordination of ammunition and material replenishment is the responsibility of the Logistics Department of the 3rd Army...... You personally say hello to Wang Yan and let him treat him equally. ”

"Yes, I see!" After reporting these work matters, Wu Yan turned around and wanted to leave, so that he could not be treated differently in the new army, which was already a situation that he was satisfied with. As a result, before he could take a step, he was stopped by Yang Zizhen behind him.

The chief of staff of the new army pulled out a report in his hand, handed it to Wu Yan, who looked surprised, and said: "This is the statistics of the Janissaries lost in the two battles of the Battle of Liuhe and the Battle of Xiushuihezi, a total of 1,372 people, I don't know if there is any discrepancy with your statistics." ”

The Praetorian Guard has just been formed, because it was hastily put on the front line by Zhu Mu, and many departments are not perfect. Zhu Mu, the Praetorian Guard, has just built a prototype of combat, and the statistics department, liaison department, organizational structure, etc. have not yet been sorted out, so Wu Yan can only slowly promote these tasks on the front line recently.

A few days ago, he personally organized soldiers to investigate the number of Praetorian Guards lost in battle, and the number was not as accurate as Yang Zizhen's. The following report shows a total of about 1,700 losses among the Janissaries, and it will take a few days to find out.

Obviously, more than 300 of them are "missing", whether they are really killed in battle, or whether they escaped from the battle for various reasons, then it is necessary for various departments to work together to confirm the relationship. The reason why the data is so different is that the New Army is based on the results of the corpse disposal, while the Praetorian Guard is counted and counted, and the Battle of the Willow River is a battle to cross the river, and the fact that the corpses disappear with the river is too normal.

"Thank you!" Wu Yan took the report and found that the statistics on it accurately divided the two battles in which the Praetorian Guards participated, explained the actual situation at that time, and even indicated the number of the relevant files at the end for easy checking and searching afterwards. To be honest, this set of rules and regulations of the Ming Imperial Army was not so perfect, and it was obvious that this was perfected by the new army itself.

Of course, if Wu Yan went to retrieve this archived file, he would find something that surprised him even more: this combat casualty statistics file of the New Army not only contains the records of the number of casualties of the New Army itself and the Praetorian Guard, but also contains the number records of the soldiers' identity tags, the names and places of origin of the fallen soldiers, the signatures of the managers and the simple death situation.

This meticulous archive is a proof of the generally high level of education of the new army, and also leaves valuable materials for later generations to study the history of the Ming Empire. The standardized management of the new army and the elaborate system have amazed future generations, and such troops really should win the victory and have their own honor.

The current new army has indeed begun to take shape, it has the combat strength of three armies, has an unprecedentedly large group army headquarters, and there is also the 29th Army temporarily assigned to Wang Jue's control. Including these troops, the total number of troops actually fighting and training in the new army has exceeded 200,000, which can be regarded as a veritable group army.
