"Director Dong Jie, you can give you a briefing on the current negotiation process for the alliance with the South, and also let you better understand the current situation and cooperate with the Kingdom's comprehensive military preparations."

Richard asked Viscount Dong Jie, the head of the royal secretariat, to explain, he quickly stood up and bowed, and then turned around and said to a pair of generals under the jade throne;

"Your Majesty, your colleagues in the army are polite;

Now, Foreign Secretary Lord Juan Carlos is leading a negotiating team in New Orleans with leading Southern figures, particularly Jefferson Davis and several governors of the Confederate States of America, to discuss an alliance between the two sides.

It can be said that the negotiations did not go very well.

The Yankees are quite arrogant, they only want our elite weapons and equipment and the officer corps now, but they don't want to pay any additional price, which they think is extremely detrimental to the unity of the South.

Under negotiation

The bottom line of our insistence on reaching an alliance is to get Tijuana, Monterey, and Kansas as a reward for the alliance, but the Southerners will not agree to any of them.

Jefferson Davis even took a hard line to say it;

"Although the territory of the Confederate States of America is vast, not an inch of land is superfluous, and the Confederate Powers will not conclude any Confederation Treaty conditional on any harm to the interests of the Southern States, and your country may occupy the Northern Confederation states by means of war, and the Confederates will recognize them, but this does not include the states to which the Confederates belong."

Judging by the current state of the negotiations

The Southerners are willing to give up Tijuana, but their bottom line is Monterey, and it is impossible for them to give up Kansas, and their attitude is extremely tough.

Due to the large gap between the positions of the two sides, it may not be easy to reach an alliance treaty in the short term.

The kingdom should stand still and wait for events to unfold in North America, as the current situation is that alliance negotiations will not go as we would like until the Southerners suffer a major setback. ”

After Viscount Dong Jie finished speaking, he retreated, and all the generals present suddenly fell into silence, all of them had bad faces, and they must have begun to scold those uninteresting southerners in their hearts.

What kind of plane?

We're all ready to enter the alley here, and you suddenly said that you won't play, and almost flashed our old waists, can you still cooperate happily?

Lieutenant General Harry Fletsch couldn't hold back and was about to stand up to speak, but Richard pressed down with one hand with a gentle expression, like an invisible force to make him sit down again, and then spoke;

"Everyone knows that the Southerners are arrogant and arrogant, but now they have experienced it for themselves, right?

War is not child's play, and the Yankees are not so easy to defeat, so it is not a bad thing for everyone to take advantage of this free time to train more troops and be more prepared.

The new recruits trained on the Eastern Continent will be transported as soon as they are mature, and the specific assembly point will be placed in Salt Lake City, which is located inland, which is conducive to blocking the news.

Moreover, the area is vast, suitable for military training.

The railroad from Salt Lake City across the Sierra Nevada to the Colorado Plateau is well underway and is expected to be completed by June next year, which is the biggest news of the moment.

At that time, the transportation of troops to the front of the Omaha fortress through the main railway artery will be close and trouble-free, which will be very conducive to covert military operations and take the Yankees by surprise.

At this stage, the most important thing for the kingdom is to stabilize its strength, continue to develop the industrial and agricultural economy in an all-round way, and not let military operations affect the overall economic development, and the soldiers needed to be recruited from the Shenzhou continent as much as possible to reduce the impact on the kingdom's local labor market.

Today, the Kingdom has more than 3,700 merchant and migrant ships of all types, which is second to none in terms of transoceanic transport power, which is our advantage.

Steadily expanding the number of immigrants and steadily building up military strength are the starting points of our current policy.

The current general strategy of guarding against arrogance and rashness and watching the changes in the situation in North America is to prepare for a big war and a bad war, and the goal is to fully occupy the industrially developed areas around the five Great Lakes region with Chicago as the core.

With regard to this overall strategic objective, the General Staff Headquarters should draw up a comprehensive war plan, dispatch elite field divisions, and prepare sufficient artillery fire and weapons to attack fortified positions and prepare them ready to launch.

As soon as the order is given, give me a neat and neat victory over the northern states. ”

The generals who said these words were enthusiastic, and they all stood up, raised their hands and saluted; "The ministers always obey the call of His Majesty, pioneer the king, survive a hundred battles, advance without retreat, and swear to complete the task"

"Good...... The military heart can also be used, hahahaha......" Richard couldn't help but laugh up to the sky, and his mood was very happy.

These two years

The army of the Tang Kingdom has carried out the reorganization of the army units from top to bottom, formed the reform of the formation of the army with field divisions and garrison divisions as the mainstay, and formed a three-level system of military regions, field divisions, and garrison divisions, which has further enhanced the combat effectiveness of the army.

Drawing on the experience of the Crimean War in Europe, the Tang Kingdom implemented a three-three establishment based on field divisions, with the main field division staffing between 6380~6500 people, under the jurisdiction of a cavalry regiment, two infantry regiments, and under the jurisdiction of the division headquarters organs, division headquarters defense battalion, reconnaissance battalion, engineer battalion, division headquarters directly under the field artillery battalion, field hospital and other configurations.

The cavalry regiment had three cavalry battalions and one cavalry artillery company, each of which was equipped with 12 Colt three-pounder cavalry guns.

The so-called cavalry artillery, here is a special explanation.

In the army artillery sequence of the Tang Kingdom, there are three kinds of artillery, one is the fortress heavy artillery, which is generally the army heavy artillery with a caliber of more than 12 pounds, including 20-pound and 30-pound fortress guns, with large caliber, fierce firepower and long range, but extremely cumbersome, basically belonging to the fortress garrison division and the artillery unit belonging to the garrison regiment.

The second type is field artillery, which is mainly 6-pounder and 12-pounder Colt breech guns, which are mainly equipped with field artillery regiments directly under the field division and field artillery companies directly under the infantry regiments, which are used to conquer towns, fortified fortresses and fortresses, and are a sharp weapon for army troops.

The third type is cavalry artillery, there is only one caliber artillery, that is, the Colt three-pounder breech gun, which belongs to the unique cavalry reinforced firepower arms in the mid-to-late 19th century, and is in the advanced ranks of the world's army today.

This artillery can be broken down and carried by three war horses, and the other nine war horses of the artillery squad carry shells and follow the high-speed movement of the cavalry troops.

It only takes 45 minutes to assemble, and it can also be pulled by a war horse, which is very flexible and convenient, and the firepower performance is also quite good.

Due to the use of the breech-loading firing system, the rifling is engraved in the barrel, and the advanced pressure-fired fuse shell is adopted, the shooting accuracy and power are reliably guaranteed, and the power of the shell is greater than that of the old breech-loading 6-pounder gun equipped by the US army, and the power of the 12-pounder gun is close to the power of the 12-pounder gun, which is the most advanced field cavalry gun in the world today.

After the reorganization of the army system

The whole army has completed the construction of 12 main field divisions, 10 framework divisions, and 6 garrison divisions, with a total of 118,500 personnel (note; the number of recruits after the army recruits 26,000 new soldiers), and it has taken on a new look from top to bottom.

The main field division has 6,300~6,500 people, more than 2,100~2,450 B-level framework divisions, and more than 2,900~3,300 garrison divisions.

In wartime, a reserve supplementary corps will be added to each field division, and each supplementary corps will have about 1,500~1,600 personnel to supplement the battle damage at any time.

So

The newly formed army of the Tang Kingdom, under the condition that all the troops are fully equipped, the existing army establishment can accommodate a maximum of 18~200,000 troops (including some overstaffing), forming a strong strike force with field divisions as the main force.

In the new army establishment, the principle of mixed organization is implemented, and cavalry units are no longer formed into separate armies, but are mixed and organized with infantry units and artillery units to fight together, and strive to achieve the effect of 1 + 1 being greater than 2.

According to the army programming rules issued by the General Staff Headquarters of the Tang Kingdom, the code name of the troops under the Northern Military Region is 1, for example, the subordinate field division is the 101st Division, that is, the ace "Dahe Division", the 104th Division, that is, the ace "Hongyan Valley" Division, etc., in order.

The subordinate units of the Southern Military Region are codenamed 2, for example, the subordinate field division is the 201st Division, that is, the ace "Snow Mountain" Division, as well as the 202nd Division, the 203rd Division, and so on, in order.

The subordinate units of the Central Military District are codenamed 3, for example, the subordinate field divisions are 302 divisions, 304 divisions, and so on, in order.

The subordinate units of overseas military districts are codenamed 4, for example, the subordinate field divisions are 401 divisions, 402 divisions, and so on, in order.

The Marine Corps unit to which the Navy belongs is codenamed 5, and now there is only one field division, the 501st Division, that is, the main force of the Marine Corps gathered in the Panama area, which is the 1st Regiment, 3rd Regiment and Artillery Regiment to which the division belongs.

The 2nd Regiment of the 501st Division was stationed in Chang'an City, shouldering the heavy responsibility of defending the fortress, and it was not easy to move.

The units of the Royal Praetorian Guard are independently organized and do not belong to the units under the jurisdiction of the Army Staff Headquarters, and all the units under them are titled "Royal", such as the famous "Royal Iron Division", "Royal Chang'an Heavy Cavalry Division", "Royal Los Angeles Grenadier Division", etc., as long as the "Royal" title is the unit of the Royal Praetorian Guard.

The Royal Praetorian Guard only receives orders from the Crown, that is, only under the command of His Majesty the King, and belongs to the private army of the Crown.

This is also Richard's control of a powerful armed force independent of the army, well-equipped, fierce and brave, especially the most famous group of young and middle-aged officers who fanatically worship His Majesty, and are die-hards who support the royal family.

The North American civil war that broke out today is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Tang Kingdom, if it can take advantage of this to go one step further and establish the hegemony of North America, then it is logical for the Tang Kingdom to be upgraded to the Tang Empire.

In the face of such a great historical cause, even a person like Richard who has opened a golden finger to travel through it, whenever he thinks of this, he can't help but feel excited, and he spontaneously emits infinite ambition and pride.

What a glorious thing it would be to be able to build a Tang Empire that dominates North America with your own hands!
