The weakness of the firearms army?

Hearing this question, everyone had different expressions, and the people who could sit here were all old foxes, and they immediately thought that this was to reuse Murong Chui. But only if his answer is satisfactory to the emperor.

Murong Trai also paused for a moment and immediately understood, this opportunity must not be missed.

In fact, he has thought about this question for a long time, and aside from the fear psychology, there are actually many disadvantages of firearms, such as fear of rain. Although I have taken the issue of waterproofing as much as possible, I am still afraid of heavy rain.

For example, the frequency of firing is not without interruptions, and if you muster up the courage to fight for casualties, you can still rush through that death zone and enter the position for hand-to-hand combat.

And once it enters hand-to-hand combat, the firearms army without armor piercing will fall into a disadvantage.

If he could have joined forces with Huan Wen at the beginning...... Still fails. Because the last thing the firearms army is afraid of is positional warfare, once they are allowed to build a position, muskets and artillery are almost invincible.

At that time, the naval warships of the Tang State were the best positions, and they had no way to do it with the advantage of gunboats.

"If I were Fu Jian, I would try to avoid positional warfare and city defense stations, choose field battles, and use cavalry to quickly approach the position of the firearms army."

"Without cavalry, the infantry charged regardless of casualties, exchanging human lives for the opportunity to fight hand-to-hand. You can also lure the enemy deep and set up ambushes in some special places...... In extreme cases, it can even drive people away......"

Wen Yi interrupted him and said: "Fu Jian will not do this, although we are enemies, but I admire his mind and bearing very much, I believe he will not do this." ”

Although Murong Chui didn't believe it, he didn't argue either. Not only did he not believe it, but most of the people around him did not believe it.

Wen Yi didn't try to explain, but said: "But Wang Menghui, he will still do it without Fu Jian, so we must take this into account when attacking the Qin State." ”

Hearing this, Chen Xiu, Huan Wen, Xie An and a few others showed thoughtful expressions, and they were even more curious about Fu Jian, what kind of person could be so praised by Wen Yi.

After expressing his opinion, Wen Yi asked again: "Is there anything else?" ”

Murong Chui gave out all his thoughts without any reservations. In order to fight for this opportunity, he did not dare to hold back.

After listening to it, everyone had to admire it in their hearts, and it really deserved to be Murong Chui.

Wen Yi was also very satisfied, and said to He Fang: "Did you hear that?" In response to the method mentioned by General Murong, come up with a response plan as soon as possible. ”

He Fangdao: "Yes." ”

Then Wen Yicai said to Murong Chui: "What you just said, I think the plan to contain the Qin State from the Daiguo is very good. Since you proposed this plan, let it be up to you to implement it yourself. ”

Although he was very surprised, Murong Chui was still very surprised, and said: "Thank Your Majesty for your trust, and the minister will swear to repay him with death." ”

Of course Wen Yi didn't believe his nonsense, what kind of person Murong Chui was, the history of his previous life had already proved. Such a person can be used but not trusted, and must not be given a chance to rebel.

So although Wen Yi used him, he also gave him restrictions: "The Privy Council has formed a cold weapon army of 50,000 people, 10,000 cavalry and 40,000 infantry, and I am also transferring an artillery regiment to you." ”

"You led these 50,000 men to the border of Daiguo, waiting for an opportunity to attack...... How to fight and to what extent you decide for yourself. ”

Murong lowered his head and bowed, "The minister obeys." ”

He was not surprised that he was not given a firearms army. First, he doesn't know how to use a firearm army, so it's better to hand it over to him a cold-weapon army.

And with the cooperation of an artillery regiment, it is better to give full play to his military talents.

Second, the firearms army is all local soldiers of the Tang Kingdom, and he is arrogant, and he can't suppress the people below him at all, and he will only make himself disgraced when the time comes.

In fact, this is also something that Wen Yi was worried about when he appointed him.

Tang Guo originally looked down on other countries psychologically, thinking that they were too ignorant and backward.

Now it is the victor again, the whole army is above the top from top to bottom, it is impossible to accept Murong Chui's command, even if Wen Yi forcibly gives the order, it is useless.

This newly recruited army of cold weapons has soldiers from three parts.

Some of them are the original cold weapons of the Tang Kingdom, some of them are from the newly recruited young people, and some of them are the transformed original Yan Jin army.

The newly formed army is relatively easy to lead, and with Murong Chui's ability, there is no problem at all in leading well.

Moreover, there is no need for a firearms army at all, a well-trained cold-weapon army is enough, not to mention an artillery regiment.

……

The completion of this round of personnel appointments also means that the work of reorganizing the cabinet of the Tang State and building a new center has been completed, and the new generation of backbones who grew up after the establishment of the Tang State, such as Xiao Baishan, Pan Yue, Zhao Fang, and Wang Youkun, have all entered the center.

After the formation of the center, it quickly played a role, first dividing the country into administrative divisions, and dividing the country into 30 states.

This includes the Qin Liang Dynasty, Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje, Western Regions, Beihai, Qinghai-Tibet and other places that have not yet been unified.

It stands to reason that even if such a large area is divided into 60 states, it is not too little, and it is impossible to divide it into only 30.

The population is too small, and it doesn't help to divide too many states.

In the future, when the population increases, it will be further split, and the center has reserved space for splitting when dividing the state capital.

Sixteen of these thirty states were already under the rule of the Tang State, because they were under the administration of the military during the war.

After the completion of the division of administrative divisions, the center began to build a top-to-bottom administrative system, and the more than 50,000 officials trained by the Tang State officially took up their respective posts according to their abilities and positions.

Administrative system, judicial system, supervision system...... With the completion of the establishment of local governments, the administrative power has gradually shifted from military management to local governance.

And this also means that the Tang State officially established a perfect and stable regime on the land of the original Yan Jin, and the Yan and Jin Dynasty have completely become history.

Of course, this process was not achieved overnight, and it was only at the end of the year that the administrative system was barely completed.

However, the production work did not stop, and the people, who had been slaves and tenants for generations, finally obtained their own land, and they all burst out with amazing enthusiasm.

"According to rough statistics, more than 40 million mu of newly reclaimed cultivated land has been reclaimed across the country this year, and a bumper harvest of autumn grain has been harvested...... Most of the country's 20 million people no longer have to worry about hunger. Wang Youkun, the new head of the household department, reported proudly.

The same is true for all those present, who have brought peace to the place in less than a year, and provided food for most of the people to eat, which is indeed a great achievement.

Wen Yi was not very satisfied, and said, "Good job, but don't be too complacent." This achievement is more due to the spontaneous actions of the people and our superiority in the system. ”

"Let the rest of the people have food to eat, and this is a reflection of your ability. And I expect even more from you, not only to feed the people, but also to eat well, to dress well, and to live well. ”

"Every house has a brick house, a few decent sets of clothes, and at least one meal a week of meat...... If every common person can afford to read the book when they are sick, I will personally go to Mount Tai to show merit for you. ”
