Chapter 24: The Outer Roots

On the evening of December 22, that is, the night when Ye Teng occupied Shilongzhai, the Yefu army completed the occupation of Shilongzhai and its three subordinate primary three villages, and all the 7 generals who stayed behind surrendered, but there was actually an intermediate political general among the generals left behind in Shilongzhai, which surprised Ye Teng:

Identity: Ye Teng's general

Loyalty: 76

Brawn: 11 Domination: 22 Intelligence: 50 Politics: 63

The phased war has ended, and Ye Teng first listened to the reports of Cai Hui and Guo Yong: Shilongzhai suppressed bandits, killed and wounded, but also gained a lot. In this battle, 363 people were killed and 78 were seriously wounded and disabled, and after this battle, there were less than 600 combat troops left. Fortunately, although all the generals were wounded, none of them died or were disabled.

In terms of harvest, there are 16 generals alone, and there are two intermediate generals, namely Xie Gengxin and Lin Feng, and 14 junior generals. The number of captured soldiers amounted to more than 4,800.

Break through 5 cottages, get 4 black iron village building orders, and 1 bronze village building order; There are 12 war horses, more than 120 horses, 5 primary internal skills, 2 intermediate, 3 primary skill books, 1 intermediate skill book, and 1 advanced skill book. There are also a large number of money, food resources, weapons and equipment.

Because of the tragedy of the war, many soldiers even broke through the ranks because of their upgrades.

After that, Ye Teng invited Cai Hui, Xie Gengxin, Guo Yong, Lin Feng, Xu Xian and others to a meeting to study the future development direction.

After full discussion and communication with the participants, everyone realized that as the anti-bandit operation continued, the number of troops would continue to increase, and it was unlikely that they would be brought back to the city for three reasons: 1. The county government would not allow it; 2. Unable to be placed; 3. The cost is too high; 4. Waste of time.

Therefore, it is a wise choice to develop the foundation outside the city based on Shilongzhai.

Therefore, after Ye Teng fully discussed with the participants, he decided to break up and reorganize all the troops, and strengthen training, and determined a specific plan at the meeting.

According to statistics, at this time, there were 1 senior general, 2 intermediate generals, 1 intermediate civil officer, and 28 junior generals in Shilongzhai.

5,432 non-commissioned officers, including 723 third-order soldiers; 2nd Order 1054; 2,748 first-class soldiers; Militia 907 people.

In this reorganization, Ye Teng reorganized the army into 4 parts, 1 direct subordinate song, 1 scout song, and 4 independent songs. According to the approximate order of the selection of troops, the following sequence of troops is formed:

Directly subordinate song: The three cantonment commanders are composed of the only three S-level qualified junior generals in the whole army, and the soldiers are composed of all B-level qualified non-commissioned officers (nearly 300) and more than 30 C-level third-order soldiers.

Scout Song: Military Candidate Xu Xian. All of them consisted of soldiers of the second and third ranks.

The first part: Army Sima Cai Hui, the soldiers are all composed of advanced soldiers, a total of 1032 people.

The second part: Army Sima Xie Gengxin, the soldiers are all composed of advanced soldiers, a total of 1,032 people.

The third part: Army Sima Guo Yong, the soldiers are all composed of advanced soldiers, a total of 1,032 people.

Independent Song: 4 songs, composed of some militias of the first and second ranks, will be stationed in the four junior cottages under them.

Logistics Department: Military Sima Lin Feng, including 1 Qu soldiers, and all life occupations, the original mountain people in the cottage, disabled soldiers, etc.

Remark:

1. Except for the troops directly under them, all third-order soldiers shall serve as grass-roots officers and shall not be selected as ordinary soldiers.

2. The first song of the above three main battle units are all elite troops, and when selecting soldiers, they will take turns in a circular order. That is, in the first round, the first part selects an elite unit, and then the second and third parts; In the second round, the second part selects a song unit, followed by the third and first parts; The third round comes first, followed by the first and third parts.

In this reorganization, due to the decline in the proportion of generals relative to the number of soldiers, it is impossible to ensure that all the commanders are composed of junior generals, and it can only ensure that the commanders of the elite troops directly under them, scouts, and the first of the three combat departments are military generals.

This was still under the condition that the first and first tuns of the three main battle departments were all concurrently served as the tun chiefs, and they barely met the requirements.

Next, Ye Teng appointed Cai Hui as the chief instructor of training to conduct a month-long military training activity. Ye Teng regarded himself as an ordinary Qu Chang and participated in training.

In the course of training, Ye Teng, Cai Hui and other generals formulated a training outline of discipline first, then combat effectiveness.

The first ten days are mainly training discipline, so as to obey orders and listen to commands; 10 days of training in combat skills; After ten days, confrontation exercises were conducted. Each stage has a set of stage rewards, including advanced weapons, equipment, money, etc.

After 30 days of training, the entire unit took on a completely new look, and not only did the discipline and combat effectiveness of the unit be greatly improved, but more importantly, the unit's sense of identity with Yefu was greatly increased. The loyalty of the vast majority of officers and soldiers has been significantly improved, especially during this period of time, Ye Teng ate and lived with the soldiers, which greatly improved the loyalty of the officers and soldiers under his command.

At this point, Ye Teng was basically relieved and was ready to lead his direct troops back to the city.

On the evening of January 24, 183 AD, Ye Teng summoned all the generals in the army and appointed Cai Hui as the chief general of the troops stationed in Shilongzhai, Xie Gengxin, Guo Yong, and Lin Feng as deputy generals, commanding all the troops, commanding next year's military operations, and requiring people to be sent back to the city every half a month to report, which also facilitated Ye Teng to go to the county government on time to accept the task of suppressing bandits.

In the end, Ye Teng, Cai Hui and other four generals jointly formulated a roadmap for suppressing bandits and expanding their forces in the future. By the first half of next year, we will strive to control all the field areas within a radius of 500 miles from the southwest of Jingcheng County to Bingzhou.

It has also defined the basic strategy and tactics for the use of troops next year and set a specific timetable.

Externally, Ye Teng asked everyone to still regard themselves as Shilongzhai and not disclose their connection with Yefu; For the past business travel, Xie Gengxin's original method was still adopted; Pay attention to gathering and absorbing civilians who are willing to take refuge, especially talents in various professions; Pay attention to protecting the talents left behind after breaking through other cottages.

Ye Teng kept all the original money and food resources, weapons and equipment, and skill books of each cottage in this anti-bandit operation for the purpose of army construction; Only the order to build a village was taken away.

On the morning of January 25, 183 AD, after Ye Teng explained everything, he led his direct troops to leave Shilongzhai and march to Jingcheng County. On the way, Ye Teng secretly summarized all the gains this time and opened his attribute panel:
