Early in the morning, Wen Yuankai took Du Ximi and ten other entourages to Liangzhou, Zhang Yue personally sent them out of the city, and then returned to the state to convene the state civil and military government to participate in the proceedings. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

First of all, in terms of administration, Huizhou is still small in population, with three counties of Huining, Wulan and Hechi, and there are three military forts of Zhongning, Zhongwei and Ulhe on the bank of the Yellow River in the north of the state. The garrison was transferred to Baishanshu by Zong Jingcheng and is now in a state of emptiness.

Over the years, they have migrated one after another, and some of them have been in the north of the state, relying on military forts to build villages and reclaim wasteland. Another part was resettled in Hechi, Hoeryong, and along the Zuli River.

Wulan County has a population of about 30,000 soldiers and civilians, Hechi includes 70,000 people from Dang's Qiang and Liang's Qiang, 50,000 from Huining, and the remaining 50,000 people are scattered near various military forts, with a total of 200,000 people, but it has to raise more than 8,000 soldiers.

It is difficult for civil affairs to improve for the time being, mainly relying on Zhang Yue's own money to operate, and if he understands it in general, he has no interest, and then turns to the military, Zhang Yue finds it a little troublesome.

Zong Jingcheng has already led the sixth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, and fourteenth battalions to Baishanshu, and the remaining six battalions of the second, third, fifth, eighth, twelfth, and thirteenth battalions are still in the south of the state, and there are six new battalions, which have only been trained for three months.

"Ladies and gentlemen! First of all, the military system, aside from the Zong Jingcheng Department, there are 6,000 soldiers left, if the military system is generally adopted now, it can be organized into two infantry armies and two horse battalions. However, today's military establishment is mainly for the purpose of adapting to the battlefield, and it is based on battalions to facilitate the deployment of formations. The camp is based on the five-titheness system of the Tang Dynasty, and it is too large to go up, so it needs to be changed here. Zhang Yue already had a case in his heart, so he spoke.

"I don't know how the envoy wants to change? According to the previous three battalions and one army, it would be too much of a loss to the enemy's five battalions and one army. Xuan Chongwen said with some hesitation.

"We can change it in this way, and set it up in order as a group, a team, a capital, a battalion, a regiment, a brigade, a division, and an army, a total of eight levels. The battalion level and below remain unchanged, and the title of the post is still called the commander, but the chief and deputy battalions must be added. The functions are to supervise military discipline, staff operations, take charge of logistics, review military appointments, and wait for countersignatures without worry, and official documents are deemed invalid, which is actually supervising the army, you won't have an opinion, right? Zhang Yue said with a smile.

"The camp is set up? In this way, the Lord will shrink his power by half, and I have no opinion, but the brothers are afraid that they will not be happy, and the candidates should be carefully considered. "Xuan Chongwen can understand, there have been many mutinies in recent years, and military discipline is extremely poor, Yu Hou is actually a supervisor of the army, and anyone who has insight understands it.

"Yu Hou can be qualified for this position, waiting for the vacancy to fill the vacancy of the officer, of course, the selection of people should be cautious, at least this person must have good military discipline, and he must be fair and strict in handling things."

Zhang Yue nodded, Yu Hou's candidate not only considers these points, loyalty is also a very important factor. There are a large number of officers in the Zhenyuan army, and the scattered officers are about to be promoted to guerrilla generals, such as Hao Tianying, but Zhang Yue has not been promoted, and he has no opinion.

With the assistance of Li Liangbi, the officers discussed together, and gradually agreed on the titles of generals at all levels, but Yu Hou's position was still a controversial topic. Zhang Yue's opinion is that Yu Hou reports directly to his superiors.

In this way, the battalion and above are changed to: two battalions and one regiment, with ten capitals and 1,000 soldiers, and the title is the chief and deputy regiment leader, and the chief and deputy senators are added; Five regiments and one brigade, with 10 battalions and 5,000 soldiers, set up chief and deputy brigade commanders, and additional chief and deputy staff officers; Two brigades and one division, with 10,000 soldiers in ten regiments, set up commanders and deputy commanders, and set up chief and deputy commanders; As for the military level, the army can be commanded from 1 to 50,000 according to the situation, and the chief and deputy military governors can be appointed, and the chief and deputy military commanders can be appointed.

"It's not bad, the five-shi system of the Eight Classics is very rigorous, but it's a little stiff, but what about the corresponding military officials? How should knights and lords be changed? "Xuan Chongwen understood as soon as he heard it, the establishment was changed to a small size and the hierarchy was strict, and the command of the army would be smoother, and the benefits would not be too much, but the corresponding scattered officials, lords, and lords would be chaotic.

"Lord and Lord have already abandoned it in the late Tang Dynasty, and the loose official is the rank and seniority, and the promotion should be based on seniority, but it needs to be changed. Let's discuss it and see how the change corresponds to the twenty-ninth order. ”

If you talk about the lord and the lord, Zhang Yue should be crowned as the protector of the army, the founding of the county, but now the honor is basically abandoned, the title is the township duke, the county duke, the county duke, the national duke, the county king five levels, the court and the old seniority of the marshal can not be added to the title, and then there is no more to change the seal, change the name of the fief, all have no real name, so in this era of the feudal duke, the county king is actually a lot.

Several people quickly agreed that the first level of the battalion commander should be the Xuanjie lieutenant and the Xuanjie lieutenant, and the battalion Yuhou should be half a grade or one level lower, and it would be enough to be the Xuanjie lieutenant and the imperial lieutenant. Further up, it is changed to: the regimental level is Yilu Du Lieutenant and Yi Lu Deputy Lieutenant; The brigade rank is Zhiguo Du Lieutenant and Zhiguo Deputy Lieutenant; The division level is Zhenwu Lieutenant and Zhenwu Deputy Lieutenant; The military ranks are Zhaowu Lieutenant, Zhaowu Deputy Lieutenant, and then there are guerrilla generals to hussar generals.

From the ninth grade to the first grade of Kaifu Yi and the third division, it is still a twenty-nine layer grade. This is very pitiful, but the generals can't have more ranks, otherwise there will be no promotion, and there will be no reward.

"In this way, the regiment is an intermediate troop level, and the brigade of 5,000 soldiers corresponds to 2,000 and 5 of the first army, and it is enough to divide the troops, and of course there are ten battalions and one army. If the division is insufficient, then it is feasible for two or three divisions to be a front army. Xuan Chongwen carefully calculated the allocation of troops, and said with some reservations.

Of course, Zhang Yue understood what he meant, implying that under the official position at the same level, the strength of the troops was not equal, so he explained with a smile: "This is easy to do!" If one or two regiments are temporarily ordered to divide troops to fight, they can be called mixed regiments, and the strength of this unit is between the regiment and the brigade, and it is also a regiment, which cannot be called a brigade.

If the strength is less than 50,000, it cannot be called an army, but if two or three divisions are temporarily divided, they can be called or mixed divisions. If a battalion dispatches a brigade or regiment-level small-scale unit to fight on the side of a division, it can be named as an independent regiment, brigade, division, or other unit. However, the use of weapons, the allocation of troops, and the marching array of battles need to be explored for a long time. ”

"Feasible! When you reach the level of the regiment leader, you should be able to understand these things. The battalion commander has his own official seal and soldier talisman, is that number named? These sigils are all purchased by yourself, and you have to go to the court to approve it, right? Xuan Chongwen agreed, but had some concerns.

"Of course, we can upgrade to a regiment first, which is currently under the direct jurisdiction of the state government. Except for Zong Jingcheng, he ordered the commanders of all garrison battalions to come back, and it would start in a few days. I just have time now, I will design all these things at once, and let the craftsmen make them tomorrow. "Zhang Yue is vigorous and resolute, and plans to train the troops according to the methods of later generations after the reorganization, and at least the recruits of the sixth battalion can train a model first.

Xuan Chongwen's status is relatively high, and he has always been asking, Hao Tianying is now in charge of the Ma Army, so he couldn't help asking: "Then does the Ma Army also want to be reorganized like this?" ”

"The Ma army can't afford to raise more, Zong Jingcheng took away the six battalions of the Quandao Department, and the remaining two battalions are just merged, you are the regiment leader, Ming Jinpeng is the deputy, Liang Zhiyi and Yiqian are promoted to the battalion commanders, and the candidates for the chief and deputy senators and deputy commanders are selected and reported. The old battalion will handle it like this, and the recruits will talk about it later, and the battalion-level series number will be changed, and the horses and steps will be officially separated. ”

After a day of deliberations, the establishment of official ranks was established, and it was planned to reorganize the Zhenyuan Army into seven infantry regiments and one cavalry regiment, and the candidates for regimental officers were gradually selected. (To be continued.) )
