Chapter Seventy-Three: Becoming an Army
A few days later, Yang Yifei and Li Mochou took a helicopter and went back to the ancient tomb to pick up Lin Yu and Grandma Sun.
Since then, Yang Yifei has no other things to distract, and has devoted himself to the great cause, and Xiaolongnu has the care and teaching of Lin Yu and Grandma Sun, Li Mochou has finally freed up his hands and truly assumed the duties of the commander-in-chief and adjutant.
He doesn't have to worry about the training of recruits, but he has to do everything himself, and now that the Tartars have withdrawn, Chang'an City is in a state of no one to manage, and there is a bit of chaos for a while.
Yang Yifei posted a notice to recruit talents, but this time he recruited not soldiers, but government talents, who were used to settle in the government, manage political affairs, and solve daily affairs for the people.
A few months later, the training of recruits had not yet been completed, and the army had not yet taken shape, but the government officials of the government had gathered first.
After resuming the operation of government affairs in Chang'an, the first thing Yang Yifei did was to promote high-yield crops such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, and barley.
When the first crops are harvested, the tax revenue can be restored, so that he will no longer have to pay for the army in the future.
Half a year later, 200 recruits finished their new training, Yang Yifei was a talker, and once again held a feast, and this time he prepared more than a dozen oak barrels mixed with Sprite's dry red, two pot heads mixed with water, foreign wine mixed with black tea and other drinks, so that everyone had a good night.
Yang Yifei's monthly salary is paid on time, even if it is the amount of military salary during the recruit period, it is also 3 times that of the Song army, and when they start to bring new recruits, there is also a subsidy for the head of the teacher, and when they are officially appointed in the future, they will receive a higher military salary according to the different positions and ranks.
It can be said that being a soldier under Yang Yifei, even if it is the most ordinary big-headed soldier, is enough for them to support a large family.
After the first batch of soldiers finished training, the second round of recruitment naturally began, and these 200 recruits Yang Yifei had all used telekinesis to spy on their memories, and they were all innocent people.
The same is true for recruiting recruits this time, Yang Yifei personally checks the checks, and snoops on the memories one by one, not to mention, he really found out a few waves of Tartar spies, and the 1800 recruits who were newly recruited in the end are all innocent and good-hearted Han family sons.
In the future, when a large number of regular troops are formed, there will definitely be Tartar spies mixed in, and he can spy on his memories one by one with hundreds of thousands of people, but if it is tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of troops, he will naturally not be able to do it.
But it doesn't matter, as long as the 2,000 direct team members are innocent and completely under his control, that's enough.
2000 modern troops are enough to beat hundreds of thousands of ancient armies, and as long as he firmly controls this garrison regiment directly under the headquarters, his position will never be shaken.
The 200 recruits became veterans, all of them hung up the rank of senior soldier on two crutches, and they temporarily brought 9 recruits each, plus they just formed a squad of 200 recruits.
After all the training is completed, a formal reorganization will be carried out, and the final reorganization will be completed according to the battalion and company squad formation.
Those who excelled in training were all recorded on a roster on which the appointment of military commanders was to be relied upon.
This second round of recruit training lasted for two months, and after completing the basic recruit training, Yang Yifei organized a combat observation before entering the professional training.
The main purpose of this observation is to increase the motivation of the recruits for training, and at the same time to give them a glimpse of their future combat effectiveness.
And the protagonist of this actual battle is the teaching team, and the teaching team will be led by Qiu Chuji to attack Weinan City next door to Chang'an, and the original 200 veterans also wanted to participate in the war, but Yang Yifei needed them to guard Chang'an, so he did not agree.
Yang Yifei promised them that when they finished their recruit training, he would give them the opportunity to fight, and let them also lead their troops to attack the city.
Chang'an is only more than 100 miles away from Weinan, it can be said that the morning and evening are coming, there are only 4,000 Tartar soldiers here, this time Yang Yifei's plan is that unless there is any emergency, he will never take action in person.
And the teaching team also gave Yang Yifei a satisfactory answer, and in this siege battle, they really played a coordinated effect.
1,800 recruits carried their own carrying equipment, lined up 1200 meters outside the city of Weinan, quietly watched this siege battle, 50 people attacked a city, which was a strange talk in their cognition before, but now they can do it.
This time to fight Weinan is not as good as fighting Chang'an, Yang Yifei does not want to destroy Chang'an City, but he can't personally fight every battle, and it is inevitable to attack the city and destroy the city wall in the future.
So this time the artillery had no scruples, and under the command of Qiu Chuji, the artillery squad took the lead in shelling the city wall, and after forcing all the Tartars off the city wall and blowing up a city defense equipment, they carried out artillery fire extension and bombed an area behind the city wall.
At this time, the other 5 squads launched a charge, straight to the city wall, when there were still 300 meters away from the city wall, the assault men with bazookas directly blasted the city gate open, and then rushed in, and at this time the artillery also stopped the shelling, picked up the automatic rifle and rushed towards the city.
However, they did not rush directly into the city, which would be ambushed by the archers, but in the city gate hole, leaning against the cave wall to touch the inner edge of the city gate, first threw a round of grenades outside the city gate hole, solved the cats on both sides of the city gate hole, ready to ambush the Tartars, and then relied on the city gate to shoot the Tartar soldiers near the city gate.
After the Tartars completely broke and fled, they really rushed into the city, and shot the Tartars more than 100 meters behind the butts of the Tartars in small teams.
In this siege battle, the teaching team killed nearly 2,000 enemies, and the remaining Tartars all abandoned the city and fled, a small number of them hid in the people's houses, some were killed by the Han people, and some were found by the people of the teaching team after killing some Han people, and then they were exterminated.
Hiding in the house of the Tartar people, they escaped with their lives, but only a very few, the old rules, the mound posted a notice, all the Tartar people, leave Weinan City within three days, and stay in the city after three days, there is no forgiveness.
Waiting for Qiu to come to report and the siege was over, Yang Yifei took the recruits into the city, let them see the battlefield and smell the blood.
The corpses of the Tartars all over the ground did cause some shock to the recruits, but after all, they were not people living in the era of peace in the later generations, and their adaptability was still very strong.
Yang Yifei brought 1,800 recruits back to Chang'an City, but left the teaching team in Weinan and gave them a batch of gold, silver, ammunition, grain and grass materials, so that Qiu Chuji could recruit regular troops here.
After all, it will take a few months at most for the recruits to take shape, and it is time to start recruiting regular troops, this time Yang Yifei did not object to Qiu Chuji's proposal to use the name of the Quanzhen Sect to recruit heroes and righteous people from all directions.
Qiu Chuji was very happy and sent a letter to Ma Yu, and the northern martial arts soon surged, but Yang Yifei himself still adhered to his consistent principles, even if it was a regular army, it only recruited ordinary people.
Unless the martial arts heroes know how to train and agree with his idea of unifying the world, he will accept it.
