This is probably the case with the central government system of the new Chinese country. In terms of local government, in the past, Xinhua had a narrow territory and a sparse number of Chinese, and it was mainly concentrated in a few cities. These cities became the local governments of Xinhua. But now the territory of Xinhua has expanded several times, and the population of Xinhua has increased to more than one million. As time goes by, the population of Xinhua will also increase. The system of local government needs to be changed!

Finally, it was determined that the local government of Xinhua Kingdom is divided into four levels: province, city and county, township and village! Below the province are cities and counties, of which cities and counties are equal levels of government, and cities are mainly urban areas, excluding suburban counties. Such a system is basically Long Yufei's reference to the system of the Republic of China. In this way, if there is no one level of government, it will be possible to reduce the number of officials by a large number of people, thus reducing the burden on the government.

The current territory of Xinhua is mainly divided into several provinces. Mindanao, the birthplace of Xinhua China, was named Xinhua Province! The Luzon Islands were named the province of Luzon! Borneo is divided into two and is divided into the provinces of East Borneo and West Borneo. There are also the provinces of Sumatra and Java! However, the current provinces of Sumatra and Java are not many Chinese except for the Xinhua troops stationed there. These two provinces are still under military control for the time being. After the population of Xinhua increased further, they would migrate to these two provinces.

So far. The reform of the government system in Xinhua has basically been decided. The next step is to appoint officials at all levels, and now there is a shortage of talent. It's just getting started, and it's going to take a long time to get it right. However, the shelves are already erected, and it is only necessary to fill them with content, which is undoubtedly faster!

After the establishment of the government system, it will be the turn of the Xinhua Army to do so. Compared with the reform of the government, the reform of the Xinhua Army is more important. Xinhua can have its current status. It was completely relied on the Xinhua Army's knife and gun to shoot down. Without the Xinhua Army, the Xinhua Kingdom is like a house without a foundation, which may collapse at any time!

The Xinhua Army is mainly composed of the army and navy. The army includes 13 infantry brigades, 1 heavy artillery brigade, two shore defense artillery units. The navy consisted of four fleets. In addition, there are scientific research institutions and arsenals serving the Xinhua Army, and so on!

Long Yufei announced military reform in front of many generals. First of all. The Xinhua Army established the leadership of the General Staff over the Xinhua Army. The General Staff establishes the Chief of the General Staff. Directly responsible to King Long Yufei. The General Staff Headquarters has three departments: training, operations, and logistics equipment. The training department is responsible for the training of the Xinhua Army in peacetime and the recruitment of new recruits, while the combat department is mainly responsible for formulating operational plans and directing the Xinhua Army in wartime! The Logistics Equipment Department is responsible for the logistics supply of the Xinhua Army, the procurement and research and development of equipment, and so on. Niu Meng, chief of the General Staff, and Zhao Yi, deputy chief of the General Staff, concurrently serve as director of the Logistics and Equipment Department.

Originally, Long Yufei also planned to set up the War Department and the Navy Department under the General Staff. However, considering that the size of the new Chinese army is not large now. The army's 13 infantry brigades, plus heavy artillery brigades and coastal defense units, are only 100,000 men. Four fleets of the Navy. Including the Marine Corps and other personnel of the military port, it was only about 15,000 people. The total number of troops is too small. There is no need to divide departments separately. Wait until the further development of the Xinhua Army, and then distinguish it! At this stage, the strength of the Xinhua Army is sufficient. After all, the population of Xinhua is only more than 1 million people, and the Xinhua Army, plus the arsenal and other related personnel serving the Xinhua Army, is almost 150,000! Billy, the number of troops and the number of people, reached one to eight. Whether it is placed in the East or the West, this is already a reckless force! If it weren't for the way Xinhua adopted the method of enslaving the natives of Nanyang, a labor crisis would have broken out in Xinhua a long time ago. Even so, the population gap in Xinhua is huge. For a long time, the total strength of the Xinhua Kingdom will remain at this scale! Of course, unless another major war breaks out, and the existing army of the Xinhua State cannot defeat the enemy, then the Xinhua army will further expand in size. As the population of Xinhua becomes more and more, there will be more and more soldiers, and we are not afraid that the source of soldiers will be exhausted!

The land forces of the Xinhua Army were stationed in the provinces of the Xinhua Kingdom, and the main enemy came from the west. The four major fleets of the Xinhua Navy, the First Fleet and the Second Fleet, will be stationed on the islands of Sumatra and Java respectively to deal with the enemy to the west. The Third Fleet is stationed in the Sulu Sea to protect Luzon and Mindanao, and now Xinhua City, Mindanao, is still one of the important industrial bases of Xinhua, even if Manila's industrial base has been built one after another, but the status of Xinhua City's industrial base is still irreplaceable. The Fourth Fleet is stationed in Manila Bay to defend Manila! The Fourth Fleet was the last fleet to be established, and it had never participated in major wars, and its actual combat experience was inferior to that of the other three fleets. However, there are a lot of pirates in the South China Sea, and they will use those pirates to train the sailors of the fleet!

The most important step in military reform is the establishment of a military rank system. In the previous Xinhua Army, there was no military rank, and it could only be distinguished by official position. For example, brigade commanders, battalion commanders, company commanders, etc. in the Army, and fleet commanders and ship commanders in the Navy. After the discussion between Long Yufei and the General Staff, the ranks of the Xinhua Army were divided into four levels and fourteen ranks, with epaulettes to show the military rank of the soldiers, and the lowest sergeants were divided into privates, corporals, sergeants and sergeants, the epaulettes of the corporal were monochrome, the corporal's epaulettes were added to a V-shaped yellow bar, the sergeant was two yellow bars, and the sergeant was three yellow bars. Above the sergeant are lieutenants, divided into ensigns, lieutenants and captains. The epaulettes of the second lieutenant are a horizontal bar and a bronze gold five-pointed star, the epaulettes of the lieutenant are a horizontal bar and two bronze gold five-pointed stars, and the epaulettes of the captain are a horizontal bar and three bronze golden five-pointed stars. Officers above the rank of lieutenant are colonels and are divided into majors, lieutenant colonels and colonels. The epaulettes of the major are two horizontal bars and a bronze golden five-pointed star, the epaulettes of the lieutenant colonel are two horizontal bars and two bronze golden five-pointed stars, and the colonel's epaulettes are two horizontal bars and three bronze golden five-pointed stars! Officers above the rank of colonel are generals, divided into brigadier generals, major generals, lieutenant generals and generals. The brigadier general's epaulettes were golden yellow and had no other decorations. The major general's epaulettes are golden yellow with a gold five-pointed star on them. The lieutenant general has two gold five-pointed stars on his epaulette, and the admiral's epaulettes have three gold five-pointed stars! The army and navy are almost the same, but below the rank of general, the army's epaulettes are dark green, and the navy's epaulettes are white!

In addition to this, Xinhua has set up a marshal above the general! It's just that Marshal is a glorious military rank, divided into military marshal and imperial marshal! The marshal has a special marshal's uniform, as well as a saber and so on. However, the current Xinhua Army is still too small in scale, and no one can become a marshal in terms of military exploits. The rank of marshal is just a means used by Long Yufei to motivate the generals. However, a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier! Everyone, including Niu Meng, is staring at the rank of marshal and wants to become the first marshal of the Xinhua Army!

Once the military rank is established, it is time to confer the title. Niu Meng, Chief of the General Staff, was awarded the rank of Lieutenant General, and Zhao Yi, Deputy Chief of the General Staff and Director of the Logistics and Equipment Department, was also awarded the rank of Lieutenant General. The head of the Department of Training and Operations under the General Staff was awarded the rank of Major General. Of course, these two ministers are temporarily vacant, and the right people will be selected to fill them next! The commanders of the 15 infantry brigades, heavy artillery brigades and coastal defense artillery below, all with the rank of brigadier general. The deputy brigade commander has the rank of colonel. The battalion commander below is the rank of major, and the battalion commander of the artillery battalion and other technical arms is the rank of lieutenant colonel. The company commander has the rank of captain, and the deputy company commander has the rank of lieutenant. Both the platoon commander and the deputy platoon commander have the rank of second lieutenant. The squad leader and deputy squad leader are sergeant ranks!

The commanders of the four major fleets of the Navy, the 1st and 2nd fleets, have the rank of rear admiral, and the commanders of the 3rd and 4th fleets have the rank of brigadier general. These two fleets were founded relatively late, participated in fewer wars, and could not compare with the 1st Fleet and the 2nd Fleet in terms of military achievements! The commanders of each ship of the Navy have the rank of lieutenant colonel or major and are determined according to their military merits and seniority. In addition, the total size of the Marine Corps of the Navy has been expanded to 4 battalions, and the rank of commander of the Marine Corps has been awarded the rank of brigadier general!

In addition to this, there are also important military scientific research institutions, as well as heads of arsenals, who will also be awarded military ranks!

The army was originally a hierarchical group. After the new Chinese army's military rank system was determined, this rank was even more vivid. At the same time, it also made the officers and soldiers of the army excited, no one does not want to get a higher rank, and there is only one way to promote the new Chinese army, that is, military merits, or contributions to the country and the army! Inspired by the military rank, the officers and soldiers of the Xinhua Army have become more heroic in battle!

After the military rank was established, the military rank of the corresponding military rank was also established! The salary of the Xinhua Army, the rank of an ordinary soldier before was five Chinese yuan a month, and one Chinese yuan was equivalent to one or two silvers. After the new ranks were established, the salaries were also redistributed! The pay for a private is 5 Hua Yuan per month, 6 Hua Yuan for a corporal, 7 Hua Yuan for a sergeant and 8 Hua Yuan for a sergeant! 10 for a second lieutenant, 15 for a lieutenant, and 20 for a captain! 30 for a major, 50 for a lieutenant colonel, and 70 for a colonel! The brigadier general is 100 Chinese dollars, the major general is 150 Chinese dollars, the lieutenant general is 200 Chinese dollars, and the admiral is 300 Chinese dollars! In this era, such a military rank is already very high, at least higher than the ranks of those armies of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Of course, the generals of the Manchu Qing Dynasty could make money through other means, but the generals of the Xinhua Army did not have this possibility! (To be continued......)
