Chapter 309: Army Reorganization

The Emperor ** team brought by Bristeen and others lost the heart and moon nature of the Angel Clan warriors and killed and injured some people in the battle with the Kerrigan Clan, and the total number at this time was only nearly 30,000 people.

Seven thousand imperial cavalry, two imperial priests. Three thousand crusaders, eight thousand marksmen. 10,000 halberd soldiers, the approximate establishment of this emperor's ** army is like this, and then it is divided into five small troops. They were led by Christine and five others.

There are not many such troops. Moreover, there is no flying force, but this army is already the most powerful force in the Evermont Islands, not to mention that these soldiers are all veterans of a hundred battles, the elite of the emperor's elite.

If they can't handle the relationship between this army and the alliance well, let them recognize the alliance and have a sense of belonging to the alliance, not only will they not be able to give full play to their due combat effectiveness, but there may be some changes in the future.

But now, after receiving it, Chen Jian had no choice but to find a way to solve the problem.

The biggest problem with this army is that they are all humans, and due to the long-term effects of alien rejection in the empire, they are not comfortable with the current environment.

Although there are nearly 300,000 people in the alliance, there are only more than 10,000 humans among the civilians, which is already a minority race in the Evermont Islands, and those aliens are a little repulsed because of their disgust with the emperor, and these human soldiers who are still wearing imperial uniforms make the situation even worse.

If it weren't for the fact that he had been with Jian Chen for a period of time before, he would have a good impression of Jian Chen. There is also a bit of sympathy for the strong for the strong for the alien soldiers under his command. Coupled with the suppression of Christine and others, something may happen.

Therefore, the first thing Jian Chen did was to restrain the people in the alliance, and then began to launch a public opinion offensive in the alliance and in the army through Robert and others. Resolve the contradictions between the two sides. At the same time, the dwarven foundry was also reopened, and a large amount of iron ore that had been stored before came in handy at this time, and a large amount of equipment was rushed out by the dwarven craftsmen who were enthusiastic about their work, and began to redress these human soldiers, and the old emperor ** equipment was also confiscated and re-refined.

This initiative was welcomed by the human soldiers. In fact, they have been slandering the equipment of the Hammondale Army for a long time, and now they have the opportunity to change their clothes, and they are still brand-name goods produced by the dwarves, of course, they are elated, and even the sadness when they change the familiar imperial ** equipment on their bodies is also diluted by this excitement.

But these do not solve the underlying problem. More important reforms in the military system.

Chen Jian believes that if this human army is still allowed to maintain the current all-human soldier establishment. Not conducive to their integration into the Harmondale Race Alliance, he planned to break up the army and mix it with the alien soldiers of the Hammondale Army, but not everyone agreed.

Not only were the soldiers reluctant, but even Sylvia and Adela were against Jian Chen's approach. It was not that they were afraid that Chen Jian would seize military power, but that they had feelings for the army under them, and they thought that this would make the soldiers unable to exert their due combat effectiveness.

"It's been a long time since our army was formed. A unique fighting style has long been formed, if they are scattered, then they will have to adapt to new comrades-in-arms, new fighting methods, new commanders, everything has to start from scratch, I am afraid that without a one-and-a-half-year adaptation period, they will not be able to form a similar combat effectiveness at all! Adela said, and Sylvia nodded repeatedly.

In fact, not only the soldiers, but also several famous generals of the empire have formed an inherent tactical style, and these soldiers can make them like an arm. If they change the army, they are also very uncomfortable

Target.

Chen Jian had expected this situation a long time ago. He said unhurriedly: "Of course I know what you say, but you also have to understand. The human population in the alliance is not large, only tens of thousands of soldiers, can you maintain this army for a long time? If there is a battle, there will definitely be casualties, don't you need to replenish the soldiers in the future? Moreover, tens of thousands of soldiers are assigned to each of you, and they are only a few thousand people, if there is a big battle, how much effect can an army of several thousand people play? Sooner or later, replenishing alien soldiers must be done, so I think that a long pain is better than a short one! Wouldn't it be better to take advantage of the fact that there is no war to let everyone adapt to each other? ”

"And the current situation, you have also seen, if the original establishment is still maintained, the soldiers will always not be able to integrate well into the alliance, if they can't rest assured that they will hand over their backs to their comrades of different races, then how much combat effectiveness can they exert on the battlefield? Also, the army composed of pure human soldiers is powerful, but the reasonable use of the special abilities of each race allows them to give full play to their own strengths, and the army composed of them is even stronger! It's more varied tactically, too! ”

Jian Chen's words made Sylvia and Adela look at each other, although they were reluctant, they also had to admit that what Jian Chen said made sense.

And they also understand that as a superior person. Chen Jian also has a reason to completely break up and reorganize this army, and the army that cannot be controlled by the superior will only attract suspicion and rejection.

At this time, Adride smiled and persuaded, "You two... Chuan Han stopped opening and immediately made up his mind to join the alliance. We've been mentally prepared for a long time, haven't we? This is just the beginning, and it is an imperative. You know it, but why are you so persistent? ”

Christine also smiled: "You two are too petty, I still expect to bring a mixed army as soon as possible, but I have never commanded an alien soldier, so I am very curious, after having such an army, how many tricks can be used in tactics!" That's a lot of fun, isn't it? ”

Ryan also said in a deep voice: "If we use the kind of training and abandonment method of the president, maybe it won't take us too long to make the mixed army form a good combat effectiveness, don't forget the two of you." Your Excellency the President's army was all farmers not so long ago, but if you look at them now, will they be any worse than our soldiers? If you think of them as imaginary opponents, what a headache it would be? ”

After reaching a consensus with the five of them, Chen Jian soon began a vigorous army reform, during this time, the Hammondale army has been expanding, and those thousands of foreign prisoners of war sent by Catherine before have now been completely absorbed by the Hammondale army. Plus the sturdiness of the picks from among the civilians of the Alliance. The Hammondale Army now numbered more than 20,000 men. Plus nearly 30,000 people brought by Christine and others. The Union army reached more than fifty thousand people. For a small force with a population of nearly 300,000, such a force is actually beyond the limit. However, Jian Chen has the previous foundation and the support of the dwarves in the hills, so he can still raise it, not to mention, Morrill expressed her willingness to take out her previous material funds department and give them to Chen Scrape.

Among the more than 50,000 soldiers, the cavalry was all drawn out by Jian Chen, and the cavalry had to be used intensively in order to exert its due power. These cavalry were organized into a 5,000-man heavy cavalry corps and a 4,000-man archers' cavalry corps. The heroic fighting of the Hammondale archers impressed these cavalrymen quite well.

Pete, a half-elf with great archery skills, became the commander of the archers, while Orison was the commander of the heavy cavalry.

Chen Jian originally hoped that Christine, who was good at lightning tactics, would command the heavy cavalry, but Christine refused to refuse: "What are you kidding? I'm still waiting to command the alien army and study new tactics! You've asked me to command an army full of heavy cavalry? Absolutely not! ”

As a result, Christine became the commander of another mixed legion, a mix of human and alien soldiers, a total of five mixed legions. Each team has a staff of 8,000 people.

One of the mixed legions is Chen Jian's direct subordinate troops, and Chen Jian himself serves as the commander, but Chen Jian has a lot of things, so this legion is essentially in charge of Morryl.

The commanders of the other three mixed legions were Ryan, Adela and Sylvia.

And Bruce, who is now the captain of the presidential guard that has expanded to 500 people, and Kedrak has become the chief archery instructor of the Hammondale Army, Ann, the female magician, Tren and Marcheting, are members of the president's magic advisory group, and they will join various legions to assist in the battle according to Chen Jian's orders when necessary, and usually go to teach some magic courses and research on magic topics.

Polly and Robert were the two busiest men, and Jian Chen had them set up a separate department. He is responsible for many shady things such as the Skynet plan and public opinion control.

As for Adride, he volunteered to command the magician legion set up by Chen Jian alone. This magician legion was formed by Chen Jian drawing all the priests, plus the original Hammondale magician team, and Chen Jian also sent some ordinary soldiers to join it, responsible for covering the magicians who were extremely poor in close combat in battle.

The total number of this particular mage legion is only 5,000, of course, of which there are only about 2,000 mages. The main role of this group is not to fight alone, but to assist other legions. If necessary, it can also be broken up and join other legions, although it is only an army composed of low-level mages below the expert level, but it is also a good force when used properly.

The reason why Jian Chen formed a legion of magicians was actually for another purpose, that is, to produce iron men.

There are so many magicians, it would be a pity if they were not used to make full use of them, the iron man does not eat or drink, does not need a salary, does not get tired, and has strong combat effectiveness. If Jian Chen doesn't want to make it in large quantities. That's a problem with the mind.

The Hammondale Race Alliance now has the technology, the raw materials, the skilled craftsmen, and the magical powers, and the magic materials are still in stock. Of course, the mass production of iron man was also put on the agenda by Chen Jian.

Under the guidance of the Wizard Advisory Group, the magicians of the Wizard Legion began to train and scratch how to make Iron Men and the Dwarven Foundry began to make Iron Man models after completing the equipment change of the Hammondale Army.
