Chapter 529: Restructuring
(It's the beginning of the month, please, please!) Thank you~)
"Elder Shen, the Recruitment Division has been defeated, what should I do next?"
Yuan Huan asked directly, he was not a pure fan of money, and naturally he also knew what kind of embarrassing state Xiningwei and Lingnanwei were in after the defeat of the Zhaoji Division.
Continue to hold the banner of "Zhu Zuo's Clan, Qingjun's Side", go straight to Jingzhao, and click Zuo Liangzhe off, or what?
In Yuan Huan's thoughts, the 70,000 Jinwuwei soldiers guarding Jingzhao were not enough to see at all.
If Shen Zesi knew what Yuan Huan was thinking at the moment, he would definitely break out in a cold sweat. Jin Wuweizhong, although most of them are children with good family backgrounds, but their combat ability is not child's play. Otherwise, 70,000 gold guards guarded the national capital, how could the Dayong Dynasty make such a joke?
However, next, he was still scared into a cold sweat by his uncle Shen Huashan's words. Although Shen Zesi knew that this matter would be brought to the table sooner or later, Shen Huashan said it too directly!
"I intend to merge Xining Wei and Lingnan Wei, and select 30,000 people as the Tiger Army, which will be led by the retreat and directly obey Yu Jing'er's orders; With 30,000 people as the bow and crossbow army, it was led by Zesi; In addition, 70,000 soldiers were recruited, thinking that they were the right and left armies, each commanding 100,000 people, with Yuan Huan and Peng Jin as the left and right generals. Together with the soldiers left behind in Xining Road and Lingnan Road, a total of 300,000 people, collectively referred to as the Praetorian Guard. I wonder what you think? ”
Shen Huashan didn't hide it, and directly said the next plan. Since Xining and Lingnan have defeated the Zhaoji Division and stood on the opposite side of the Dayong Dynasty, then the two names of Xining Wei and Lingnan Wei will definitely not be used anymore.
The Shen family's adjustment of the army is imperative! After passing through the three major stations of Xining Road and Lingnan Road, a large part of the original two guards soldiers have been damaged; If another 70,000 or 80,000 troops are conscripted, then the influence of the Dayong Dynasty on the army will almost be wiped out.
With the financial support of Xining Trade Road, Hu's Anhetang and Qianqiu Qianzhuang, Shen Huashan believed that the 70,000 or 80,000 soldiers would soon be able to be recruited under the favorable conditions offered by the Praetorian Guard.
Changing the name of the army is only the first step. As long as these 300,000 soldiers are no longer Xiningwei and Lingnanwei, in the future battles, they will be on their own, and they will no longer be afraid that the Dayong Dynasty will use the battle to attack the heart.
After Shen Huashan finished saying this, he looked at Yuan Huan and Zhu Dunshi, and even the eyes of Shen Zejing and others were staring at Yuan Huan.
Yes, among the people present, only Yuan Huan is not an in-law of the Shen family. Although Yuan Huan was already on the same front as them, it was under the banner of righteousness of the "Zhuzuo clan and Qingjun side".
Now that the Shen family has taken a step further, what will Yuan Huan think? This time, the Shen family's request for Yuan Huan was different from when Yuan Huan echoed the Shen family's army.
Tiger Ben Army, there is a saying in the ancient book that "the king will be the tiger Benshi before and after", which is the name of the special guard of the ancient emperor, and the status of Jin Wuwei is almost the same, all of which exist to protect the royal family.
Now that Shen Huashan wants to rebuild the Tiger Army, the Shen family's intention to reform and build a dynasty is already obvious.
Once Yuan Huan agrees with this adjustment of troops, then it means that Yuan Huan is willing to take more than 100,000 Lingnan guards to the Shen family and obey the Shen family's orders.
Zhu Dunshi has always been convinced of Shen Huashan's senior brother, and he has never had a word about Shen Huashan's plans.
For a while, all the people in the room looked at Yuan Huan. If Yuan Huan does not agree, then Xiningwei and Lingnan Wei will part ways, and they will have to fight to the death.
"The adjustment of the army and the change of name are only the first steps, right? What is Shen Lao going to do? ”
Under so many gazes, Yuan Huan was not nervous, but asked like this. He didn't directly ask if the Shen family was rebelling, so there was no need to ask again.
"Yes, that's just the first step. The army will change its name, and the natural uniforms will change; In the next step, I plan to change the coin, and the treasurers of An He Tang and Qianqiu Coin are already designing and minting new coins. Brother Jiang had already arrived from Jiannan Road. ”
Shen Huashan smiled, and he was not afraid to say the next step. There's nothing to say about that. Jiang Chenghai, the former head of the household department of Dayong, has already rushed to Lingnan Dao, and it is not impossible for Yuan Huan to know.
First the army, then the coins, Yu Zhengdao and Shen Ning, who were responsible for formulating the next steps for the Shen family, thought hard almost day and night before deciding on these two proper steps.
"So...... What is the difference between the new dynasty and the great young? Yuan Huan asked, his voice inaudible with joy and anger.
is also a dynasty, what is the difference between the Shen family and the Shangguan royal family? Those who are low are still ordinary soldiers and civilians.
"What does the general think is the difference between us here and Jingzhao?"
This time, it was Shen Zejing who smiled. has a face very similar to Shen Huashan, with confidence and perseverance.
What's the difference? Of course, Yuan Huan knew that it was different. Relying on the Shen family's army alone, almost without losing a single soldier, it was collected from Xining and Lingnan.
It can be said that this situation is the result of the Shen family's planning for many years, but to put it a little higher, isn't it the destiny of the people? Yuan Huan didn't know these fantasy things, the only thing he could do was to follow his own heart and the people's heart.
"General, there is no other place for the destiny of heaven, but Taipinger!"
Yu Zhengkai has not spoken since his mother Mrs. Yu and his younger brother and son passed away. Now that he had a white belt on his forehead, he finally said the first words.
The cruelty of war, everyone they were present, had experienced it. The changes to the army and coins are nothing more than to make the next step smoother.
All the efforts and sacrifices are for the word "Taiping", and they are all for ordinary people to live like individuals!
"Then, Yuan, willing to be a dog and a horse, willing to be the forerunner!" Yuan Huan stood up and said with a fist. This decision was made after he came and went to the riverside, and he thought a lot, and at this moment, it was finally decided.
Hearing Yuan Huan say this, Shen Huashan and Shen Zejing both breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, it is not necessary for Yuan Huan to lead 100,000 soldiers, but good generals are rare, and only a Guodong has to be trained with all his might, and the Shen family really does not want to lose such a talent.
In this way, the instruction of the restructuring was unanimously approved by the twelve people present. Two decisions that have brought earth-shaking changes to ordinary soldiers and people in Xining and Lingnan have been decided!
Army, change! The name, uniform, and regular uniform, etc., are all changed, and all the soldiers who are in these two areas are called the Praetorian Guard;
Coins, change! The style of recasting copper coins, silver, silver ingots, and silver tickets, printed with the four characters of Taiping Tongbao, and the transactions and circulation of Xining and Lingnan are all used Taiping Tongbao......
The change and adjustment of the name and uniform of the army is something that can be carried out immediately.
When this order was carried out in Xining and Lingnan, it was protested and puzzled by the soldiers of these two guards. As every soldier, they know what the name represents, and now they can't accept it when they say it.
Mutinies are not enough, but commotion is inevitable.
In the face of the commotion of the soldiers, there was nothing to be done except to use the method of "bodhisattva heart and thunderbolt method".
Shen Zesi, Peng Jin, and Yuan Huan summoned the middle-level generals of the two guards and did a lot of ideological work. It took all the power of the soldiers to calm the commotion of the soldiers.
Fortunately, there were 80,000 new soldiers and 30,000 prisoners who were willing to surrender to the Division, and at this time they were supplemented into the two guards of Xining and Lingnan Dao. Due to the addition of new soldiers, the number and uniform were changed to take advantage of this opportunity to advance the restructuring step by step.
Just as Shen Huashan had planned before, the carefully selected 30,000 people became the Tiger Ben Camp, and they directly obeyed Shen Zejing's orders; The 30,000 crossbow soldiers and 30,000 people who were familiar with the operation of the crossbow bed formed the bow and crossbow army, which was responsible for operating the weapons produced by the Shen Family Ordnance Division; There were also 100,000 soldiers each, led by Yuan Huan and Peng Jin, who became the left and right armies of Shence.
Such an army structure is not mature, it is only a prototype, and it is an arrangement made for the existing 300,000 troops. In the conception of Shen Huashan and Yu Zhengdao, this structure, with the increase of troops, will inevitably be extended and expanded.
The Shen family dared to adjust the troops, of course, it was not unprepared. Half a month after the restructuring was decided, the first batch of military uniforms were sent to the Huben Army and the Shence Left Army.
The shining armor and significantly strengthened protection were worn on the soldiers of the Tiger Army, which looked majestic. Holding the long knife newly developed by the Shen Family's Weapons Division, the momentum of the soldiers seemed to be different from before.
Yuan Huan touched the armor on his body, felt their coolness, and didn't know what to say for a while. The armor was made entirely of armor pieces, and the ornamentation of the pigs was also engraved on it. This armor looks heavy, but it is quite light on the body,
Wearing this armor on his body, Yuan Huan once again clearly realized: Now it is not Lingnan Wei, but the Left Army of Shence!
When Jiang Chenghai and Yang Jianrui rushed to Lingnan Road in the dust and saw these new uniforms, they were really shocked, this ...... It's very majestic to look at.
The functions of the uniform, what protection, symbolism, and identification are, Jiang Chenghai and Yang Jianrui, the two civil officials, don't understand at all.
They just felt that the soldiers in the new uniforms looked very powerful, especially when the 100,000 Shence Left Army was assembled, as if the heavens and the earth were about to shake. (In fact, these two civilian officials rarely see the scene of 100,000 soldiers assembled, and they have long knowledge~)
They have to sigh: Sure enough, people rely on clothes!
This first batch of military uniforms is only enough for the Tiger Ben Army and the Shence Left Army, and the rest of the soldiers still use the old military uniforms for the time being. There is no comparison and there is no identification, and when these two kinds of uniforms are compared together, they are immediately superior.
Facing the envious, jealous and hateful gaze of the Shence Right Army, the vanity of the Shence Left Army was greatly satisfied, and he felt that the soles of his feet were windy when he walked.
The right army of Shence is led by Peng Jin, of course, it can be delayed a little. Even so, there are still many Zhonglang who will go to inquire when the second batch of military uniforms will arrive.
The restructuring of the army in the first step did not seem to cause much backlash, which made Shen Huashan and others breathe a sigh of relief.
With the arrival of Jiang Chenghai and Yang Jianrui, the second step of the change of coins has also begun.
But I didn't expect that,
