Section 182 Watching the Army

I wanted to say more, but seeing the cavalry striding forward, Guo Tao also felt that this was not the time to lobby, so he endured it.

Let's take a look at the appearance of Jiang Feng's army before thinking about others, if this army mixed with all towns is not as strong as imagined, everything is resting, if it is really mixed together by Jiang Feng to become a strong army, then you can think about it.

The First Army of the Wuning Army came first.

This is Wang Shouxin's leading cavalry, the three cavalry armies in the Wuning army, of which this cavalry is the main force, and the two cavalry armies, all of which are integrated from the original Taining Army and the probation army cavalry.

With strong horses, mighty knights, and shiny armor, this cavalry is indeed worthy of the leading cavalry of the Pinglu Army, and it was received almost intact, and Jiang Feng also returned the original directly to Wang Shouxin quite proudly.

The horses' hooves are whirling, the armor is ringing, even if it is dozens of steps away, the momentum is coming.

Wang Shouxin and Chai Yong's two horsemen slightly increased their speed, surpassed the leading cavalry, rolled the saddle and dismounted ten steps away from Jiang Feng, stepped forward quickly, and knelt on one knee, "I've seen the county prince!"

Jiang Feng hurriedly stepped forward and took a step forward, "Hehe, my own family, why do you need to be so polite?"

"County Prince, etiquette must not be abolished!" Although Wang Shouxin is a rectum person, his words are extremely smooth, and even Chai Yong on the side is wondering if his main general is usually a little clumsy.

"Okay, the two generals are exempt, please get up!"

Jiang Feng was not very polite, he knew that the necessary etiquette was very meaningful, especially in front of the imperial court, if his subordinates appeared contemptuous, it might make Guo Tao and them doubt their ability to control, and Wang Shouxin and Chai Yong's performance at this time was enough to explain everything.

Wang Shouxin and Chai Yong got up and clasped their fists and stood aside.

"Come, I'm here to introduce the two of you, this is the envoy from the imperial court, the Privy Council's fellow governor Guo Gongtao Guo, you two have come to see. Jiang Feng then led Guo Tao, who was standing aside, over, "Guo Gong, this is General Shouxin Wang, the Governor of Wuning Town, and General Chai Yongchai, the Deputy Governor. ”

A pleasant greeting.

Guo Tao was also looking at the two.

Although he was far away in Guanzhong and had never seen the two of them, he had also heard of their names.

Wang Shouxin doesn't need to say much, Wang Shouzhong's younger brother, and he is also from a mother, but in Pinglu Town, Wang Shouzhong has always covered the sky with one hand, and everyone else seems bleak, but Guo Tao also knows that Wang Shouxin is still quite authoritative in the Pinglu army, and Liu Yansi and Zhang Junyue are both generals under Wang Shouzhong.

Chai Yong is a person that Guo Tao is very interested in.

After Yang Pu settled in Chang'an, Guo Tao also visited and heard that Yang Pu introduced the original Huainan generals and mentioned that his generals Zhou Wang and Chai Yong were strong.

Zhou Wang followed Yang Pu to Chang'an, while Chai Yong joined Jiang Feng.

It was just a matter of serving Jiang Feng, but I didn't expect this Chai Yong to be very reused under Jiang Feng, first as a military commander, and later when he attacked Xu Yan, he had many military exploits, and was quickly promoted to the deputy envoy of the soldiers and horses of the Huaiyou Left Army.

Now Jiang Feng has set up five military towns, and Chai Yong is even more powerful, and has become the deputy governor of the Wuning Army, which can be described as hot.

Even Guo Tao had to admire Jiang Feng's wrist, how could he grasp all these generals in his hands, and he was not afraid of his loyalty, and these generals were willing to use them.

Jiang Feng knows Guo Tao's observations.

Almost everyone was worried about the loyalty of these generals, and it would be a lie to say that Jiang Feng was not worried at all, but the situation in front of him did not allow him to have other choices.

It is impossible for him to promote generals such as Zhang Yue, Zhang Ting, Ju Shen, Qin Zaidao, Guo Yue, and Ding Man to the position of governor, and let Yu Mingzhen, Chai Yong, Zhu Mi, Lu Qiming, Hong Kui, Qin Han, Liu Yansi, who are obviously much higher in terms of martial arts strength and strategic and tactical level, be subordinated to their subordinates, not to mention that a considerable part of these armies under his command are directly reorganized from the Ganhua, Taining, and Pinglu armies.

Unjust arrangement of commands will not only greatly weaken the combat effectiveness, but also make it easier to cause trouble.

Jiang Feng pursues a point of view, that is, there is no hatred and love for no reason.

Although Huaiyou won the conquest through war, these people are all soldiers, and they all understand that today itself is a world of strife, and it is the most normal thing for the feudal lords to attack each other, so the success and defeat of the king is also the natural result, so everyone has to accept this result, and there is no need to complain and be full of grievances.

I have given them opportunities, given them trust, given them a future and hope, and there is no reason why they should not be loyal.

Of course, there will definitely be some people who can't get out of the dead end, then he can't do it, he can't waste food because of choking, he can only make up for it by other means.

The means of making up for it are simple.

The first is the reform of the logistics system, all military supplies and grain are no longer in the hands of each army, but are uniformly deployed and supplied by the logistics department of the Privy Council, which breaks the foundation of any desire to hold troops to self-respect.

In addition, to ensure the loyalty of these officers to themselves through the rotation and replenishment of middle and low-level officers in the military affairs academy, this is the reform of the officer system, of course, this will be a long-term process, but as long as it is persistent, it will certainly achieve miraculous results.

The third is supplemented by multiple methods such as spying and monitoring by secret departments like Nighthawk, which is also a last resort.

Of course, the most important point is that under his own rule, he provides the most stable guarantee for these soldiers and soldiers, which is fundamental.

The phrase "being a soldier and eating food" is not a simple four words, looking at the world, there are several feudal lords, especially in the north, who can do this?

The probation army and the Taining army don't talk about it, eating empty salaries and deducting military rations are all things that are taken for granted, and the Pinglu army is no better, and there is hardly any military town that is not like this, but the degree is different.

However, Jiang Feng insisted on this point from the beginning of the consolidation of the first army, preferring to lack rather than indiscriminate, preferring to have fewer elite soldiers, rather than easily expanding the number of troops and resulting in inability to guarantee.

Guo Tao was indeed carefully observing this army, and the cavalry rolled by, followed by the infantry army slowly coming.

The infantry army is the original foundation of the Huaiyou Left Army, even the three armies, this is also Jiang Feng's leading army, most of them were recruited by the young people of Yingbo in those years, after the Battle of Xuzhou and the Battle of Qingzhou, these troops have become the main force that can take on the big task.

Although it is not uniform in robes, Guo Tao also knows that it is not easy to do this step, especially the innovative armband, which is quite eye-opening, which makes Guo Tao amazed.

Of course, none of this is important, the most important thing is the stable morale and heroic posture shown by the Wuning army, whether it is a cavalry army or an infantry army, they are worthy of being a male soldier.

"How?" Guo Tao picked up the teacup and took a sip.

This method of making tea, which is said to have been popular in Shouzhou, is now also popular in Guanzhong, and the gentry have fallen in love with this simpler but more fragrant way of tasting tea, and Guo Tao is no exception.

"Lord Tongzhiyuan, if there are such male soldiers under the command of the Duke of Pengcheng County, they should be able to compete with Hedong. A character in plain robes, but clearly a martial artist, muttered.

"The subordinates focused on observing the Wuning infantry army, and their soldiers were strong, and although their faces were the color of wind and dust, they were ruddy and full, which was enough to prove that these soldiers were eating and drinking in an orderly manner and were safe...... and their horizontal knives were of good quality, far superior to those of the Liang soldiers, and the spears were sharp, and they were the iron of a hundred refinements."

"What else?" Guo Tao stroked his beard under his chin.

"The shoes are the same, when they are uniformly equipped, and there are knee pads and elbow pads for officers above the rank of chief, I am afraid that it is difficult for the Shatuo cavalry to be fully equipped,......"

"The officers of the first level of the head and deputy head of the capital all have the level of heaven, and the battalion commander makes the officers of this level should be at the level of washing the marrow and forming the body, and some of them have stepped into the heavenly realm, and on this point alone, they will not lose to the elite ,...... of Nanyang and Caizhou."

"Subordinate to the cavalry, its strength is slightly different, the first army cavalry is the strongest, it is reported that the Pinglu cavalry is transferred, has not been reorganized, when it is the elite of the Pinglu cavalry, the other two armies of the cavalry strength is slightly inferior, but it is not weak, the war horses are all strong horses, but the training is slightly different, its horse lance equipment, in the Central Plains of the feudal domains are absolutely in the forefront, the Liang army is also inferior, only the Jin army is slightly superior, but the Jin army is far less than the length of the lance, and the armor is also weaker than the Wuning army,......"

"Oh?" Guo Tao was slightly moved.

The strength of Jiang Feng's infantry Guo Tao has heard of it.

The battle of the ant thieves besieging Gushi started the name of the infantry army under Jiang Feng, and then Caizhou besieged Gushi several times that of the Gushi army, and still failed to please well, and returned in embarrassment, but also showed the combat effectiveness of the Huzhou infantry army to the fullest, and then attacked Shouzhou, fought Yingzhou, and then the battle of Fuli, so that to the battle of Qingzhou, finally established the prestige of the Huaiyou infantry, but if it is said that the cavalry is second only to the Jin army, it cannot help but make Guo Tao shocked and moved.

Horse lances are not equipped casually.

First, it can make the horse lance itself have extremely high requirements for the personal quality of the cavalry, and the arm strength and waist strength have higher requirements; second, because of the special effect of the horse lance in the confrontation of the mounted cavalry, it is very easy to be cut off by the opponent's ring knife weapon, so it is also a trend to extend the lance head, which also means that the amount of iron used has increased greatly.

The amount of iron used for an elongated lance is often equivalent to three or even four times that of an ordinary spearhead, which is something that ordinary armies cannot afford, but the Wuning army actually dares to use a large amount of iron in such a luxurious way?

What Guo Tao didn't know was that when the first iron furnace of the Xuzhou smelting center was officially released, the logistics department immediately placed an order for 10,000 elongated lances.

The rapid expansion of the scale of the iron-smelting and forging center also made the weapon processing enter a new stage, and the cavalry of the Wuning Army was redressed in Yizhou and replaced with a new elongated horse lance.
