Chapter 146: The Emperor wants to parade

Han Yu himself is not known for his general affairs, but his arrival is still of great significance to the Changying Army.

The Changying Army is not without subordinate officials, but it has always lacked a core that can coordinate all subordinate officials and form a benign system, and Han Yu's arrival obviously made up for this shortcoming, and greatly improved the administrative system and efficiency, liberating Guo Rong from the case, logistics, etc.

However, this does not mean that Guo Rong and the military academies of Changyingjun can be much easier.

Since the number of candidates is much higher than the number of candidates, the selection criteria have been raised, but the number of selected recruits is still much higher than expected.

Guo Rong's original idea was that the total number of recruits in Chang'an City and Guanzhong counties could reach nearly 20,000, and the reward and punishment elimination mechanism could be realized, which was enough to form auxiliary soldiers.

As a result, under the frequent occurrence of accidents, the morale of Changying's soldiers skyrocketed, and there were more than 60,000 people enrolled in Chang'an City, and through strict screening, the number of recruits selected in Chang'an City alone was close to 16,000.

The screening of recruits in Chang'an City is coming to an end, and the recruits recruited from all over Guanzhong have also arrived one after another, and the number of these people is still increasing, and it is a foregone conclusion that the number of more than 10,000 will be after all returning.

In addition, about 1,000 people are being recruited from the clan, cooks, doctors, craftsmen and other professionals recruited from Chang'an and even Guanzhong as auxiliary soldiers, plus 4,000 veterans who were originally the core of the Changying Army.

According to the calculations of Li Yu, Guo Rong, and Han Yu, after all the recruits in Guanzhong returned, the regular soldiers, auxiliary soldiers, and logistics of the Changying Army would be able to reach a full strength of 30,000 people.

Although it is not yet full now, the number of people in the camp has skyrocketed from 4,000 to 20,000, and the pressure brought by it has skyrocketed.

After Guo Rong ran over to Xingqing Palace to complain, the annoyed Emperor Taishang added two hundred low-level officers of the Yuanshen Ce Army who had passed the screening.

Rao is like this, the training of recruits/instructors, the selection and training of recruits, and the construction and expansion of professional auxiliary soldiers (engineers, cooks, medical, etc.) of the Changying Army still make Guo Rong and others anxious.

In fact, with the support of Emperor Taishang, the kitchen of Xungui's family, and even the imperial kitchens in good health in Daming Palace and Xingqing Palace did not escape the looting.

However, the benefits are also obvious, the canteen will always be the most popular place for the Changying Army.

The good news is that the effect of cohort training far exceeded Guo Rong's expectations, and in the first wave of LYB, Shi Chang experimented with executable training rules in a short period of time.

The process-based training has enabled the vast majority of recruits to master the basic passwords and get used to orders and prohibitions after the seven-day queue, and can quickly divert them, such as heavy infantry, crossbowmen, cavalry, engineers, etc.

The other branches of the army were trained by classification, while the engineer battalion was effectively supplemented by a new force, and the construction speed of the entire camp was doubled, and the large canteen that could accommodate 3,000 people at the same time in Guo Rong's plan was quickly completed.

On the day when the big canteen was completed, Guo Rong obviously felt that the morale of the entire Changying Army had been greatly improved, after all, there was no hard training that could not be overcome by one meal, if there was, another half a catty of meat.

And in the middle of this, Han Yu also gave Guo Rong a surprise that made Guo Rong painful and happy.

From the beginning of the founding of the army, Guo Rong once had an idea, that is, to make the soldiers of the Changying Army under his command as literate as possible.

In the era before Guo Rong traveled, a very important factor in the rapid rise of rabbits was the universal education of the whole people.

Even if a person who has only completed the most basic compulsory education, mastered the most basic logical ability, and can read words, his ability to understand things and his ability to execute things are not comparable to those of a pure illiterate.

In this era, Guo Rong did not dare to count on the so-called universal education, but through long-term efforts, Guo Rong felt that there was still hope for the soldiers under his command to become literate.

This is also the reason why Guo Rong asked for the recruitment of literate people as much as possible when recruiting soldiers, after all, one more literate person is equivalent to one more teacher in the literacy class, and one less literacy goal.

In the first exchange between Guo Rong and Han Yu, Guo Rong mentioned his own idea, but what Guo Rong didn't expect was that after Han Yu entered the Changying Army, he would have the energy to think about this in addition to completing Changshi's own work.

Although Guo Rong was already trying his best, and even directly swept away the six schools of Guozijian and the more than 300 students who were both civil and military, Guo Rong was able to stop there.

Guo Rong can awaken the enthusiasm of students, but after awakening the enthusiasm, at least at this stage, Guo Rong will not be able to turn hundreds of students into qualified literacy teachers.

However, it is very difficult for Guo Rong to do things, and it becomes easy and pleasant in the hands of Han Yu, an education expert who is a doctor of Guozi and a big man in the literary world.

In Han Yu's hands, more than 300 students from the Sixth School performed their duties during the day and became literacy class teachers at night, while the original thousands of veterans of the Changying Army became the experimental subjects of these guys.

Although many people question the use of knowing the words of soldiers, the veterans are very honest in their bodies under the reward and punishment system of learning to add money and not learning to add military sticks.

With the improvement of the organization that only those who can understand the military orders can be promoted to the regimental captain, all the veterans' interest in learning has risen rapidly, after all, no one wants to be a captain for a lifetime.

After the literacy class was successful, Han Yu took the initiative to find Guo Rong, and Guo Rong found that Han Yue wanted to be more radical than himself.

Han Yu himself is a person who likes to think independently and has a strong personality, otherwise he would not remain honest and unrepentant in the ups and downs.

When he met Guo Rong for the first time, Han Yu saw the content recorded by Pei Zhi, and the things in it were such as glory, such as the supremacy of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Emperor was the symbol of the Tang Dynasty, which was novel and unique to Han Yu, which caused Han Yu to think deeply, and then Han Yu accepted this somewhat rebellious thought.

Han Yu proposed that the students of the Six Schools can teach the soldiers to be literate, so why not use the enthusiasm that has been ignited by Guo Rong to strengthen the spiritual world of these students and instill the idea of fighting for the Tang Dynasty.

Han Yu said it tactfully, but Guo Rong understood, Han Yu wanted to brainwash these students...

Brainwash... Although shocked, it didn't hurt to replace other ideas with loyalty to Datang, the two hit it off, and the two quickly made a plan.

As a result, Guo Rong's work added another item, temporarily dispatching these students from the six schools to conduct physical fitness and queue training in a systematic manner during the day, so as to strengthen their sense of honor and overall awareness.

And at night, Han Yu would continue to instill in them the concept of the supremacy of the Tang Dynasty in a bombing manner when they were relatively tired.

In less than ten days, more than 300 students in the barracks received at least two rounds of training, and under the high-intensity queue training and brainwashing offensive, the students' thoughts gradually became unified, and loyalty to Datang gradually replaced the previous more chaotic thoughts, and Guo Rong and Han Yu's plan was initially successful.

In the middle of this, Guo Rong also took the time to complete a meeting with Guo Hui and Guo Zhao.

Regarding the supply issue raised by Guo Rong, no matter whether Guo Hui or Guo Zhao accepted it all, Guo Zhao even said that he would not hesitate to go bankrupt.

Guo's completely non-bargaining situation made Guo Rong very puzzled, until Han Yu gave him an answer: Guo's has figured it out!

Emperor Li Chun's imperial concubine is Guo's family, although Guo's son is not the crown prince, but when he has no confidence in victory, Li Yu's choice to send Guo's son Li You out of Chang'an is already very revealing.

Now this kind of behavior shows that Guo has completely made up his mind to put all the bets on Li Yu and Li Chun's father and son, and in a sense, Guo is now a reliable ally.

was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground, and unconsciously directly halfway through the middle of October, the day of Guo Rong and the crown was already approaching, until the early morning of one day, Li Yu, Guo Rong, Han Yu, and the three cores of the Changying Army were directly summoned to Xingqing Palace.

"How many soldiers have completed the overall queue training now?"

"Your Majesty, including veterans?"

"Including veterans!"

"Less than a thousand."

"Guo Rong, I remember that the initial training only takes seven days, and the complete queue training only takes half a month, why are there so few people who have completed it?"

Looking at Li Yu's frowning brows, Guo Rong, Li Yu, and Han Yu looked at each other.

"Your Majesty, it is true that the recruit cohort training in the unit of Shi (10 people) only takes seven days, but in order to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible and reasonably distribute the veterans as instructors, after completing the first phase of cohort training, all the recruits have been diverted according to the type of troops."

"Only the heavy infantry with the highest importance in the battle formation continued to practice in the queue, and there were only 1,000 alternative Mo sword soldiers with a regimental unit of more than 100 people! In addition, there are about 500 veterans who have mastered the complete process of separation. ”

"The split is the last time I went to the Changying Army, and you asked the veterans who were responsible for teaching queue training to show me and use it in the parade."

"Exactly!"

"Well, I'll tell you now, I took your suggestion for a military parade, and it was scheduled for five days later."

"Isn't that the day Your Majesty crowned his ministers?"

"Yes, that day!"

Guo Rong now has a feeling of being cocooned and self-bound, he would not have shown it to Li Yu if he knew it, he thought that it would be carried out in six months, who knew that the emperor was so anxious.

"Your Majesty, do you need armor?"

"Armored, armed, armed!"

After listening to Li Chen's precise request, Guo Rong almost fainted.

The set of armor of the heavy infantry, plus the main weapons (lance, spear, spear, sword), secondary weapons (hammer, axe, sapper shovel), saber, dagger, horned bow, arrow......

This set is sixty or seventy pounds, and wearing such a set of things to kick the right step, Guo Rong thinks about it, and his brain hurts.
