Chapter 114: Dark Forces
Chen Kefu's explanation made Chen Qing and them understand in an afternoon.
, "Young master, I was wrong before, you can scold me a few words." Chen Qing said a little embarrassed.
"What are you scolding for, now that you understand, then show your skills. I don't want to spend all our energy on the first and second divisions, and the third, fourth,
Five divisions. ”
Mao Yi, Lu Shishen and the others hurriedly got up and said, "Young master, don't worry, if you can't be satisfied by then, you can screw off my head and kick it as a ball." After talking about this, everyone discussed together what kind of generals they had believed, and planned to transfer them to the first and second divisions.
"By the way, Mao Yi, how many war horses do we have now?" Chen Kefu remembered an important matter and hurriedly asked.
Now, after the reorganization according to the new army reorganization plan, there are about 20,000 cavalry troops, which is basically a two-to-one ratio with the infantry. But whether there can be so many strong people who are good at riding, and good war horses are very important.
The two are indispensable, and without which the cavalry unit will be difficult to form. And without the cavalry, no matter how many soldiers and horses there are, the combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
Mao Yi straightened his thoughts, "Our current war horses are okay, not much, but there are a lot. The last time His Majesty left, he basically took all the war horses with him. However, General, you had a good relationship with the Yu culture of Taifu Temple before, and we already had nearly 4,000 war horses. After returning from the battle of Xincheng, you got another 10,000 good war horses from Taifu Temple. Later, Yu Wenhua sent another 5,000 horses to the adults, saying that they were horses used to transport supplies and so on. But I've seen those horses, they are all good horses, although they are worse than the war horses in the broken barracks, but as long as they are taken care of, they can also be used as war horses. ”
"Moreover, this time we captured Liaodong City, and we also captured a lot of war horses. There were originally 30,000 cavalry in Goguryeo's Liaodong City, and 10,000 of their cavalry were annihilated when they crossed the Liao River. Later, their cavalry was no longer useful, and after we broke the city, Gao Jianwu fled in a hurry, taking with him more than a thousand horsemen. The Liao cavalry is basically a two-horse configuration, so there are nearly 40,000 war horses captured in the barracks, but the best horses are only about 20,000. Most of the rest are the same as the five thousand horses sent by Yu Wenhua, barely able to make war horses, but it's not very good. ”
"In addition, after we broke the city, we confiscated the property of the Liao people in the city, including a lot of horses. Moreover, Liaodong City was originally a place of trade for all ethnic groups in the land of Liaodong and Liaoxi, and there was a special horse market in the city, although most of the horse dealers took their horses away in advance because of the war, "but there were still a lot of horses in the horse market." We also expropriated them all, and the horses of the horse market and the horses of the inhabitants of the city together were ten thousand. However, these horses can only be used for transportation", but it is not difficult to make war horses. ”
Chen Kefu said in surprise, "We have so many horses? Isn't there to be 60,000 or 70,000 horses in total? ”
Mao Yi also smiled and said, "The young master, plus our own horses, has a total of more than 70,000 horses, but among them, there are nearly 30,000 sturdy high-grade war horses, and the remaining 40,000 horses can only be used as pack horses for transportation. ”
"30,000 war horses, the number of cavalry we have now reorganized is roughly more than 20,000 people" On average, a cavalry can have one and a half horses. Well, I'm worried that there won't be enough horses, so when I usually train, I pick out some of the bad horses that can be used as war horses and use them as training horses. Those good war horses "sent people to take care of them, and then used them when they were in battle." ”
War horses are a valuable resource, and now without the strong national strength of the Great Sui to support them, he must carefully protect these war horses in his hands.
"After I executed those people who violated the order today, did the officers and men in the army have anything to say?" Regarding the cutting off of 199 heads at once in the morning, Chen Kefu was still a little worried that it would affect the morale of the army. In case the soldiers think that he is cruel and ruthless, "It's not bad."
"Early in the morning, I arranged for my sergeants to pay attention to the discussions in the various armies and among the people, and there was a lot of discussion. Some people felt that military law was a bit harsh, that those people violated military orders but did not cause death. However, there are also many people who feel that the young master's military law is strict, and it is appropriate to kill those people. However, no matter what, in general, everyone still has no dissatisfaction with the young master. After all, the young master, you acted according to military law, and the young master, you later fulfilled your promise and rewarded everyone greatly. Even to those who were beheaded in violation of the order, they did not miss their share, not only sent their dues to their families, but also gave them an extra one, and the young lord even took out his own belongings and added another one. It can be said that all the strong men and the people are convinced, and they all say that you are a good general and worth following. "Killing them, I still feel a little regretful, but not killing them is not enough to deter the three armies, hey, I hope there will be no more such things in the future." Chen Kefu was also a little disappointed. ,
After a while, Chen Kefu said hesitantly, "I want to set up a few new departments in the army to spy on the enemy's intelligence movements." The second is to supervise the whole army, especially Li Jie and his party, to prevent them from pulling our back tuǐ behind, or doing something that catches people off guard when they are critical. ”
Regarding this matter, Mao Yi and the others turned their heads and understood after thinking about it. When the army is outside and there is no intelligence department, it is bound to be deaf and unclear, and if the ears and eyes are not clear, the hearing and hearing will not be clear. Not having clear information is very disadvantageous for them.
Although there are reconnaissance battalions, these are only wartime patrol units, armed reconnaissance. And the situation behind enemy lines, they will not be able to get there. If a special intelligence organization is set up to develop secret agents in the cities occupied by Goguryeo, or even in Pyongyang, if they can get information about the Goguryeo court, it will undoubtedly be of great help to their situation.
However, the inspector of the three armies that Chen Kefu said later is an internal organization, and several people cannot express their opinions. Busy nodding in agreement! After all, since he has walked out of the road of recovering the country, Chen Kefu will be his king in the future, as a monarch and controlling his subordinates, but it is also the art of kings, and they have no reason to oppose it.
"The new Secret Service Division, which is responsible for probing all enemy intelligence, is collectively referred to as the staff of the Special Service Division, referred to as the Special Agents, and they develop intelligence networks in various places, such as Goguryeo, and even the grasslands. ”
"Another investigation department was set up, which was specially responsible for supervising internal personnel, from the commander of the brother Li Benlei to the commander of the first battalion, all of whom were within the scope of the inspection. At present, Li Jie's party is the focus of surveillance. Not only should they be monitored for any misdeeds and ideas, but even problems such as corruption among officers in the logistics battalions of the company army are also under the management of the Investigation Department. In short, it is necessary to have full control over the dynamics of all internal officials. As soon as the wind blows, we can preemptively strike. However, there is one point, the investigation department only has the power of surveillance, and cannot arrest or interrogate, and its personnel are called Jinyiwei. ”
In addition, the establishment of the "Police" Prosecutor's Department, all the misdeeds detected by the Investigation Division's Jinyiwei will be transferred to the "Police" Prosecutor's Division, and the "Police" Prosecutor's Department will dispatch personnel to arrest and interrogate. The personnel to whom the police inspector belongs is the police inspector. ”
In addition to the above three divisions, the Military Police Division will also be formed, and the task of the Security Division is to supervise the war in wartime and to picket the discipline of the troops" is a law enforcement team in the army. In addition, important military territories "such as city gates, warehouses, wharves, ferry ports, camp gates, and offices of generals and departments will be guarded by the Military Police Division." The members of the Gendarmerie Division are called gendarmes. ”
Lu Shishen said a little confused, "Young master, isn't it okay to build a division?" Why do you want to separate them into four divisions, isn't this a troublesome thing? ”
Chen Kefu was silent for a while, but still said, "It is necessary to separate the Secret Service Division, the Investigation Division, the Police Investigation Division, and the Military Police Division. Depending on the function, we separate them separately, which also allows them to carry out their respective work better. In general, they are the collection of intelligence externally, "internal supervision, arrest and interrogation, law enforcement guards." These units are all more important and require secrecy, and they can also prevent the opportunity of leakage of secrets when separated. ”
On the surface, this is true, but the more important reason is something else. It is necessary to engage in an intelligence department. Internal supervision" is also a necessary channel for superiors to control their subordinates. These departments are all dark forces in the hands of the king, in order to ensure that their position is not threatened.
It can be said that the power of such a department is very great, Chen Kefu is very worried, if it is not good, such a department will become a troublesome organization like the East and West Second Factory and Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty that he once knew.
The only way to use it, but not to let this sword hurt your hand, is to divide power and check and balance. The intelligence service is divided into two, one internal and one external. Moreover, after giving the Investigation Department the power to supervise, it has to restrict their rights to arrest and interrogate. Delegating the power of arrest and trial to a separately established police prosecutor can prevent unjust, false and wrongly decided cases and prevent people from using this power to plot misdeeds.
Finally, a special gendarmerie department was set up, and the gendarmerie unit was also set up for the purpose of enforcing the law, and having a special law enforcement team instead of handing over the right to enforce the law to their respective units could better enforce military discipline and prevent people from following the law. Moreover, it can also carry out stricter protection for some important departments and locations.
"Remember, the four divisions are directly subordinate to the headquarters and are directly responsible to me personally, and anyone who is not in the four divisions is not allowed and has no right to interfere in the management of the four divisions without my warrant. The personnel of the four divisions are all military personnel, and the highest official of the four divisions is the director of the division, with the rank of brigadier general at the level of brother division. Mao Yi, you will serve as the first director of the Secret Service Department, Lu Shishen will serve as the director of the Investigation Department, Chen Qing will serve as the director of the Police Department, and Chen Shanlai will serve as the director of the Military Police Department. You've got to get the shelves up and running in the shortest possible time. ”
Of course, Mao Yi and the others understood how important such a few units were, and when they thought about it, they were already the commanders of each division. Hurriedly said, "Young master, such an important errand should be handed over to others, now that we have soldiers with us, it is not appropriate to take such an important position." ”
Chen Kefu also understands this, if he really keeps letting them hold these positions, it will be tantamount to letting them monitor themselves, and it won't do much to do it.
He smiled and said, "Now I will hand over these departments to you for the time being, but when there is a suitable candidate, I will let you quit." But now, it is up to you to draw some suitable men from the various armies and form the four divisions. Remember, with the exception of the Gendarmerie Division, the remaining three departments are secret departments and must be kept secret. ”
