146. Changes to the military system

Within three miles to the south of the Yanwang Mansion, there were originally several military camps, two of which were the palace front Siyou Yima military village, a water army village, a right army horse infantry village, and a teaching field.

However, because of the relationship between King Yan, the three commanders of the Ma Military Division in the city, namely Longwei, Yuncai, and Wuqi, were combined together, and the camp was changed to one of the Youyi Ma Military Villages, and Zhao Mengqi called it the 'Dragon Riding Battalion' for convenience, and explained that the three commanders each took one word, fair!

There is also a Youyima military village that was replaced by the Imperial City Division's barracks, with more than 1,000 soldiers, and this water military village that is not close to the river has not moved, and more than 300 sailors are stationed.

The last remaining large school yard naturally became the Yanwangwei military camp, but the original barracks obviously could not meet the needs of five thousand soldiers, and now the construction is being stepped up in a separate place.

Since he was building an army from scratch, Zhao Mengqi did not recruit 5,000 people at one time, and only selected 500 people in the first batch.

Originally, according to Qi Jiguang, the god of the Ming Dynasty, the best source of soldiers should be honest and willing to endure hardships, and the children of peasant families with little knowledge and high obedience, but Zhao Mengqi still regarded literacy as the most important condition.

Therefore, among these 500 people, there are more than 100 from the 'citizen' class in Lin'an City, nearly 200 are from the families of the Lin'an Forbidden Army, and nearly 200 are Taihu refugees, children of nobles, and children of clans.

It may seem like a hodgepodge, but one of the advantages of young soldiers is that they are malleable, and as long as there is a suitable training method, it seems that it is not difficult to train into elite soldiers.

At least Zhao Mengqi himself seems to be full of confidence, but does he have military experience?

In fact, his only military practice was military training when he was studying, but thanks to the development of information in later generations, as a military enthusiast, many military common sense is still relatively well understood, and there is no problem if you want to talk about the army on paper.

In addition, the books about military affairs in this era are not a secret to him, and he has carefully consulted and browsed them in his spare time, and he has a general idea.

As for what kind of soldiers can be trained in the end, only God knows.

At this time, under the somewhat rude training of the two hundred 'instructors', the five hundred young recruits stood together in a hedgehog, looking at the Dianjiangtai directly north of the school with some uneasiness.

These instructors were all found by Zhao Mengqi from the Imperial City Division, Ma Jun and the Imperial Palace, and they were all literate junior officers who were used to assist him in training.

Five hundred recruits are equipped with two hundred instructors in an ultra-luxurious configuration, this kind of serious waste of resources is also done by Zhao Mengqi in this era.

On the stage, Qu Moxuan stood beside Zhao Mengqi, his dark thick face full of depression.

When King Yan invited him to come before, although he felt that letting him, a 'heavy general of the imperial court', train hundreds of recruits, was purely a thousand-mile-drawn plow, and it was overkill, but he still came happily.

Unexpectedly, after arriving here, King Yan gave him the title of advisor to the instructor corps, saying that he wanted to practice by himself and let him assist him.

It's not that he Qu Moxuan looks down on Yan Wangha, this military thing is not smart and useful, many regulations and details are exchanged for blood and human lives on the battlefield, if this is messed around casually, the consequences are unimaginable.

But King Yan is now stubborn, so let him eat and eat first, and hit the south wall, and when he realizes the difficulties of training, then after I take over, won't he value himself more?

That's right, just wait, it is estimated that King Yan will be numb now, and he may not understand what to do next.

Qu Moxuan somewhat had the mentality of watching Zhao Mengqi make a fool of himself, hugged his arms, and looked at King Yan, "Your Highness, everyone is here, what should I do next, please give me instructions." ”

Unexpectedly, Zhao Mengqi was confident, "Soldier training is nothing more than several aspects of army building, training, and combat, involving the selection of soldiers, the establishment of troops, banners and golden drums, armor equipment, the appointment of generals, military salutes and military methods, the formation of combat arrays, and their training." ”

Lao Qu was stunned when he heard this, it seems that this Yan Wang is really prepared, there is nothing wrong with what he said, but it is estimated that it is the same as those big turbans, that is, talking in generalities.

However, I heard Zhao Mengqi continue, "This selection of troops, the reason why I asked to be different from other troops is that I have my own plans, and you will slowly know this later, now that this step has been completed, that is, the establishment of the army, and in this regard, I will also be different from the current military system." ”

The composition of the army of the Great Song Dynasty was very complex, so there was no unified standard for the establishment of the army.

Roughly speaking, "100 people are the capital, five are the battalions, five battalions are the army, and the ten armies are the compartments", all of which are divided into horse steps, and the horse army sets up military envoys, deputy soldiers and horses, and the infantry army sets up the head and deputy head.

A battalion is also a commander, with a commander and a deputy commander, which can be regarded as a basic combat unit, and the status of the squad is equal to that of the battalion.

Then the military set up the commander of the capital, also known as the military master, with Du Yuhou as the deputy, and then the upper compartment is actually not permanent, and the boss is also called the commander of the capital.

Later, it evolved into four levels of "team, department, general, and army", with the army set up a commander and commander, a general general, a deputy general, and a preparatory general, a ministry set up a general, and a team set up a leader such as a support team, an escort team, and a flag leader.

It may be that the reform is not thorough, or it may be deliberate by the imperial court, anyway, the old and new establishment methods are implemented differently in different armies, and even the two sets of establishment are parallel.

In Zhao Mengqi's view, this is unacceptable, and he believes that the organizational structure of the army should be clear and clear, so he does not plan to adopt these two kinds of establishments.

"Lao Qu, pass the order down, and let the instructors divide the recruits into a team of six."

After Qu Moxuan finished conveying the general's order, he asked Zhao Mengqi puzzled, "Six people and one team?" ”

Of course he will be strange, the name is 'Wu', shouldn't it be five people, why does King Yan want to engage six people?

"Yes, six people, as the most basic structure, when fighting, the commander can divide the power in his hand into three parts, which are on the left, middle and right, which should be the most conducive to taking into account the command."

For normal people, facing the left, center, and right should be the easiest way to adapt to thinking.

Qu Moxuan was noncommittal to this idea, and asked, "Then His Highness is also different in the formation of the army in the back?" ”

"Yes, two companies and one group, a total of twelve people, three groups and one platoon, three platoons and one company, separate company commanders and company instructors, three companies and one battalion, separate battalion commanders, battalion instructors, direct subordinates, and heralds, a total of about three hundred and fifty soldiers, and then they will be assigned to logistics and civilian duties, so they can be used as independent combat units."

Qu Moxuan thought about it, the details are a little different from the current establishment, but the men and horses of the first battalion are not much different from the battalions of other troops, and it is not impossible for King Yan to try it.

"What about the back?"

"Behind, it's about three battalions as a regiment, three regiments as a brigade, and three brigades as a division. Basically, one division is 10,000 people, and they can take charge on their own. ”

Zhao Mengqi's establishment term seems to be used by later generations, but in fact, the Huaxia army has been using these establishment units for a long time, but there are some differences in the number of people, but in the Tang Dynasty, the regiment was larger than the brigade, the first brigade was one hundred people, and the first regiment was the third brigade, which was changed by Zhao Mengqi for his own habits.

It can be seen that Zhao Mengqi intends to emulate the three-three system, but after all, it is the era of cold weapons, and it is still more important to consider the actual combat needs, and this establishment must be tested and improved in actual combat, but it is still possible to use it for military training at present, at least Lao Qu does not feel that there is any problem.

Moreover, such an establishment is conducive to the expansion of the organization in the future, and one group has two army commanders, and it is easy to split into two groups after joining the recruits, and it can still maintain a certain degree of combat effectiveness.
