Chapter 99: Correct the name
After taking Orenburg, Li Liguo quickly positioned this place as the capital core of the peasant rebel army, and officially played the name of the country to overthrow the Russian Empire, Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin issued a formal declaration to the entire Russian Empire, forming a country of unity and equality of all ethnic groups, whether it is Slavs or Cossacks and other minimum nationalities, in this country are treated equally, and as long as they are willing to take refuge in themselves, the low-level commoners and serfs can get free land and food, Figures from the upper class can retain wealth and even official positions!
Even the country name Li Liguo has thought of it, it is called the Russian-Cossack Empire, after all, Li Liguo's external identity is a Cossack!
Li Liguo naturally also held a simple enthronement ceremony in Orenburg, no matter how big his territory is, first build up the momentum, so that those low-level civilians can see the determination and ambition of the rebel army!
Lao Tzu is here to establish a country, not to rob!
Li Liguo called himself Stalin I, the king of the Cossacks, the vanguard of uniting all the peoples of Russia!
It must be said that after the spread of the title of the Russian-Cossack Empire, other peoples did not have much influence, but almost all the Cossacks were boiling!
Most of the areas where Li Liguo revolted were inhabited by Cossacks!
It can be said that after the name of the country was publicized, not only the low-level civilians appeared to join the army, but even many Cossack nobles sent people to take the initiative to contact Li Liguo, secretly promising that as long as Li Liguo fought over, they would go all out to join Li Liguo!
In addition to these shows, Li Liguo's biggest job after conquering Orenburg was to reorganize the new army of the uprising!
He set the basic unit of the new army of the uprising as a regiment, set it as a quintal system, with a battalion below the regiment and a company under the battalion, a company of about 100 people, a battalion of 5 companies, a regiment of 5 battalions, all infantry, and artillery will be organized separately!
Each company has a hundred commanders or is commanded by a captain, and the officers are assessed entirely according to their merits, of course, this is only a company officer, and after rising to the battalion level, they have to go through the assessment of the Guards, which includes basic military knowledge and loyalty to Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, oh yes, now called His Majesty Stalin I!
The regimental commander has to go through layers of screening, and will award honorary military flags to the regiments that are brave in the main battle as a reward, these main regiments are almost all composed of the remaining soldiers of the new army of the uprising who attacked Orenburg, and all of them are veterans who have experienced cruel elimination!
In fact, there is only one main regiment, which is called the Honor Regiment, which is larger than the ordinary regiment, which can reach more than 3,000 people, and as the core main force of the new army of the uprising, the treatment is almost the same as that of the Guards infantry regiment!
Of course, the Guards Infantry Regiment has also been expanded, reaching the same size as the Honor Regiment, the Guards Infantry Regiment is the foundation of Li Liguo, he does not dare to participate in a large number of soldiers who cannot guarantee his loyalty, and the expansion is very slow!
The Guards cavalry was also expanded, supplemented with many loyal Cossacks, to compensate for the losses of the cavalry units, and the Guards cavalry was re-expanded to 30,000 men!
It's just that due to the lack of muskets, the main weapons of the Guards cavalry are cold weapons such as sabers and cavalry guns, and they are not equipped with firearms!
In order to better consolidate the foundation of his rule, Li Liguo established a military committee headed by him, and the power of this military committee is very large, and almost all military operations and logistics are the responsibility of the military committee!
And this military committee established by Li Liguo is almost all reliable people selected by Li Liguo from among the officers of his lineage, and it can be said that Li Liguo used a military committee to openly and transparently assign all the military power of the new army of the uprising to his own hands!
A few careful people will find that it is difficult for officers from the bottom to enter the real core level of this army, but under the system of military merit with clear rewards and punishments and the aura of victory of Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, no one dares to dispute this!
The entire rebel army was unprecedentedly united around Li Liguo!
Li Liguo has completely formed a benign dictatorship!
In addition, in the Military Commission, there is also a department called the Military Security Section, which is dedicated to internal review!
As for the external spy organization, Li Liguo doesn't have that capital, he just simply uses the news channels of the people at the bottom!
After Li Liguo established the Russian-Cossack Empire, he made a unified black military uniform, and the military cap was designed as an easily recognizable tall hat.
With the end of the costume change, Li Liguo expanded to the surrounding areas while absorbing a large number of people, and the scale of the rebel army became bigger and bigger like a snowball!
The army in the surrounding area has long been evacuated by the previous 3-way encirclement and suppression army, and the rebel army has laid a large amount of territory with the momentum of destroying and decaying, and then absorbed ordnance materials such as grain and grass, and distributed the land equally!
Yes, Li Liguo, who has confidence, will no longer be polite to those nobles, it is good to leave your property, and the land must be given to the families of those soldiers who joined the army!
Except, of course, for the nobles who took the initiative to take refuge in Li Liguo!
Li Liguo allotted all the aristocratic lands that were wavering and loyal to the Russian Empire!
1773 was spent in Li Liguo's expansion and reorganization!
By March 1774, Li Liguo's rebel army had expanded to 30,000 men, and was fully equipped with firearms!
Orenburg's arsenal rotates 24 hours a day, supporting Li Liguo's increasingly large army!
In addition to the 30,000 regular troops, there are tens of thousands of second-line troops equipped with cold weapons, and these units will also conduct preliminary military training to ensure that when the losses of the first-line troops are too great, they will be replenished in time!
As a matter of fact, the biggest limitation of Li Liguo's army expansion is the number of weapons and logistical pressure!
30,000 troops, bullets and shells fired in a battle, but an astronomical amount!
Li Liguo's reserves barely supported Li Liguo to carry out a decisive battle of the main force......
Of course, Li Liguo's overall strength must be added to the 30,000 cavalry corps and an artillery division with hundreds of artillery pieces!
Yes, Li Liguo has set up division-level units in the case of the gradual increase in the number of troops, and Li Liguo's military committee has a large number of military talents, and the deployment of the army is much stronger than the leader of the mud-legged uprising in history!
The army of 30,000 people was divided into 3 divisions, a division of 3 regiments, and an additional separate guards regiment!
A separate regiment of honorable infantry!
This is the basic composition of Li Liguo's army!
When the timeline came to the end of March, the crusading army of the Russian Empire had finally completed its convergence! (To be continued.) Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½)
