Chapter 102: Troop Statistics

In fact, officials in the Ming Dynasty also had a "winter vacation", from New Year's Day to the Lantern Festival, the holiday lasted almost a month.

However, here in Su Yan, his main officials have obviously not "followed the customs", and they are still insisting on handling some more important government affairs during the winter vacation, no matter what, the entire Fujian Province is still immersed in the joy of the New Year.

Not only in a corner of Fujian, but also in the whole country, whether it is the Qing court in the north or the Ming and Qing battlefields in the southwest, there is a tacit understanding to maintain the truce on Chinese New Year's Eve and Spring Festival, in addition to celebrating the traditional festivals of the Chinese nation, it is also for the soldiers who have been fighting all day to take the opportunity to rest for a few days and relieve their tense emotions.

After the Spring Festival, Su Yan came to Mawei on the bank of the Min River, although Mawei was a natural harbor at this time, but it was not opened up as a port by the imperial court.

Fuzhou Mawei, a few hundred meters away from the tranquil Minjiang River is the battlefield of the humiliating Mawei naval battle in later generations, Su Yan once visited the ancient battlefield site of the Sino-French Majiang naval battle located here, and also learned about the relevant history, and the memory of this humiliating war is particularly profound.

Revisiting the old place, Su Yan did not have the depressed and dull mood of later generations, because he knew that with his existence in this life, the humiliation would probably not exist a hundred years later, if he could really build a country and become the emperor in the future, Under his education, it is very likely that the Western powers will be beaten and paid compensation.

"Chen Ying."

"The subordinates are here."

Suddenly being named, Chen Ying hurriedly stepped forward and responded with her fists clenched.

"After returning to Fuzhou City, I notified the prefect of Fuzhou and mobilized migrant workers to build a military port here, named it Mawei Military Port."

His voice fell, and before Chen Ying could answer, he heard a sudden voice from the system in his ears:

[This place is suitable for the construction of a port, and the host can choose whether to incorporate this place into the system building sequence, and after agreeing to the incorporation, Fuzhou will have one more port. 】

Su Yan was stunned for a moment, and then promised in his heart: "Agreed." ”

[After the selection, the horsetail has been incorporated into the system building sequence, and the host can choose to upgrade the port type.] 】

"Wait, system, does this equate to a town that automatically spawns every few turns in the game that can build a type of building?" After Su Yan reacted, he hurriedly asked.

[It can be understood in this way, but reality is not automatically generated, and it needs to be ordered by the host itself.] 】

The system replied.

"What do you mean?"

Su Yan didn't understand the meaning of the system.

In the face of Su Yan's inquiry, the system patiently answered for him:

[Take the wrought iron factory in the Panyang mining area of Anxi as an example, after the host places the factory, it will automatically become a "town" in the host's mouth, and after the progress of science and technology in the future, the host can also upgrade the wrought iron factory, gain buffs and unlock new industrial technologies. 】

[In addition, the Iron Ore Zone can only be set up in mines that contain minerals, and after being established, it can build system buildings, form economic buildings, and unlock industrial technology; Farms, handicraft workshops, and factories need to be set up in a place outside the city, and after they are established, they can continue to be upgraded, and each province can only set up two farms, handicraft workshops, factories, iron ore mines, and ports. 】

[Additional buildings in Fujian Province: Anxi Panyang Wrought Iron Factory, Fuzhou Mawei Port (upgradeable), Quanzhou Light Weapons Arsenal (upgradeable). 】

After the system was fully explained, Su Yan finally understood the relevant rules, these buildings are equivalent to "state-owned enterprises", and the restriction that only two of them can be built in a province is normal, which is understandable, otherwise, he will set up military ports in every place along the coast without restrictions, and explode ships crazily, then the oceans of the world will be full of warships flying his flag in the future.

This kind of scene, the picture is too beautiful for him to imagine.

……

Returning to Fuzhou from Mawei, Su Yan set out to count all the troops he had under his command.

First of all, Su Yan's most precious Shenji Battalion, the Shenji Battalion was temporarily commanded by Su Ci, with a total of 2,740 people, including 960 line infantry, 180 light infantry, 360 Cossack infantry, 240 hand artillery companies, 360 grenadiers, 640 riflemen, and eight 12-pounder infantry guns, and 32 artillery, stationed in Fuzhou.

There are no battalion officers in the Chinese military camp for the time being, with a total of 1,480 people, including 480 spearmen and 1,000 spearmen (composed of descended troops), stationed in Fuzhou.

The Zhongwu battalion was commanded by Chen Shenggui, with a total of 1,000 people, including 300 sword and shield men, 300 spearmen, 200 bird guns, 200 archers, and 8 Furang machine guns, 20 tiger squat guns, and 84 gunners.

The Yiwu battalion was led by Lai Xun, with a total of 2,000 people, 600 sword and shield men, 600 spearmen, 400 bird gunners, 400 archers, 10 Furang machine guns, 25 tiger squat guns, and 105 gunners, stationed in Jianning Mansion.

The Weiwu Battalion was commanded by Chen Shitai, and its establishment was the same as that of the Zhongwu Battalion, and it was stationed in Shaowu Mansion.

There are also newly established Chang Ting Biao and Xiao Cavalry Battalion, the former is led by the new general Su Dingyuan, a total of 4,020 people, including 840 line infantry, 180 light infantry, 900 sword and shield hands, 900 spearmen, 600 bird guns, 600 archers, and eight 12-pounder infantry guns, 4 Hongyi cannons, 6 Fulang machine guns, 30 tiger squat guns, and 152 artillery people, stationed in Tingzhou Mansion.

There are 1,560 people in the cavalry battalion, including 60 volunteer cavalry, 300 cavalry regiments, 120 capital archers, 120 Kalmyk archers, 360 Cossack cavalry, 480 dragoons, and 120 Braunschweig dragoons, stationed in Fuzhou Prefecture

In addition, more than 1,000 spearmen, militiamen and Russian garrisons were included in the city defense army.

Again, the military establishment adopted by Su Yan has not changed, it is still five people and one team, two soldiers and one tithe, five tithes and one team, two teams and one outpost, two posts and one general, and the five generals are one battalion, but he considered that the strength of one battalion and one thousand people is a little less, so he added a standard to the original battalion establishment, that is, four battalions are one standard.

Chang Ting Biao is such a product, but there are only three battalions in Chang Ting Biao, and the system soldiers are independent of the establishment of the indigenous soldiers, especially the line infantry, four tithes, three teams and one sentry, and the three teams are lined up in three rows during the battle to shoot at the enemy's platoon.

It is worth mentioning that after Su Yan completed the task of unifying Fujian, when he deployed the army in various parts of Fujian, he summoned some rewarded troops in the system space, and the line infantry and light infantry and 12-pounder infantry guns in the Changting standard appeared because of this.

In addition, Su Yan also unified the names of all levels of the military system, and the army is the commander, the commander is the chief, the post is a hundred households, the general is the general, the battalion is a thousand households, and the standard is the garrison, and the military system is completely different from the current chaotic Ming army military system.

After some statistics, there are 13,800 soldiers under Su Yan's command, and more than 10,000 former Qing soldiers who are undergoing training have surrendered.

In other words, after waiting for a month, Su Yan will have more than 20,000 elite soldiers whose collapse value is higher than that of the Qing army, although this is not comparable to the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Qing court, but it is also a force that should not be underestimated.
