Chapter 437: Preparations for the Great War

Zhu Wu's magnetic voice echoed through the hall.

The leaders of the crowd listened intently, and no one dared to interrupt. This military change is not small. The number of people in each battalion is too large, and it has long been unsuitable for the use of battalions, and the army is a high-standard military establishment, so it can only use secondary "divisions."

"Division, brigade" has existed since ancient times, from the Xia and Zhou periods.

The brigade, about 500 people, is equivalent to the battalion of the Song Dynasty.

Divisions, which belong to large military formations, range from thousands to 10,000 people.

The Liangshan reform adopted the division and brigade establishment. 10,000 people per division, except for 1,000 people directly under the battalion. It has three brigades. Each brigade had three battalions of a thousand men, and each battalion was divided into three brigades. Under the jurisdiction of the capital, the team is compiled! Layers of constraints, firm control.

This is Wang Jin's adjustment of the Liangshan army in combination with later generations and the current era. Since last year, it has been carried out, such as battalion-level medical and logistics brigades, and whether the navy is strong or not depends on the warship, and the infantry and cavalry must be separated. Fleets, formations, fleets, so-and-so are also gradually gaining popularity in the naval army.

In the past, big bosses, leaders held positions, and the military was regularized.

Up to now, the adjustment of the internal systems of the water, infantry, and cavalry armies has long been completed. Now that it has been officially announced, there is no surprise that the commanders and lieutenants of each battalion are in charge. It's just that when I heard that the candidate for the general was not me, I was inevitably a little disappointed.

On the contrary, Lu Zhishen, Du Yan, Sun An, Shi Bao and others had calm faces. They had been reminded by Wang Jin in advance, so they were calm and angry. In fact, after hearing the appointment, I was very happy.

Some rejoice, some lose.

If you want to say that the most excited, there is nothing more than Hua Rong, Qin Ming, and Huang Xin, who were sitting in the back, who were a little stunned when they heard their names, and then they were pleasantly surprised. Liang Shanbing

Strong horses, and used troops overseas to attack the Japanese kingdom. Not long after the three of them went up the mountain, they encountered such a major event, and now they have become generals of the first army, commanding 10,000 people, how can they not feel excited?

If it weren't for the serious faces of the people around him, the brothers would definitely jump up and thank you. volunteered to kill Wajima to repay the cottage's great kindness.

Wang Jin, who was sitting on the throne, glanced at the crowd and took their expressions into his eyes. The three armed forces were reorganized into the 10th Army, and the generals and personnel were carefully considered.

If Lu Zhishen is as careful as a hair, he is wise as a fool. Sun An judged the situation and was quite strategic. Du Yan has outstanding military talent and is a steady person. Needless to say, Han Shizhong has excellent military literacy and is a general on the same level as Yue Fei. The eldest brother is still a ranger, but he is studious, and he is no worse than others.

Others such as Shi Bao, Hu Yanqing, Zhou Xing, and Ruan Xiaoer all have significant advantages.

Wang Jin talked to them a lot, and discussed with the military advisor many times before he was sure. In fact, Bian Xiang, Ouyang Shoutong, Ma Yuan, Li Jun and others are also suitable, but there are only a few positions for the time being, so they can only pick out excellent people to take on.

Zhu Wu seemed to spit lotus flowers in his mouth, and he read the list of cage lengths in one breath and stepped back. There was silence in the hall, and everyone maintained a serious posture.

Wang Jin saw that many people looked lost or depressed on their faces, coughed a few times and waited for everyone to come back to their senses, leaned forward, and said solemnly: "Where is this?" Merit, status, honor, and money are not given by me, but you have to fight for and get them back.

Look at your decay, how can you lead a good army to win the war? I didn't see that it had just been reorganized, and the establishment of the various armies was not complete. As long as you perform well in this war, you will make great contributions, and you will do it later

Establish a new army and give priority to promotion. So, you should not be lost at this moment, but be motivated. ”

"What my brother said is that we will kill the enemy bravely."

Wang Jin's words were very effective, and those who were originally a little lost lit up one after another. The more I listened to it, the more I felt like this, and a smile and joy appeared on my face. I only felt that there was a fire burning in my chest, and no one would be willing to fall behind, and after Wang Jin finished speaking, they all held their heads high, and this time even Hua Rong, Qin Ming and others were also mixed in, and they roared excitedly.

"Okay, it's up to you!" Wang Jin watched everyone's emotions rise, and poured a basin of cold water at the right time: "However, don't be careless, don't take the enemy lightly, and don't be greedy for merit." It is still more impossible to win the battle against the pride and complacency of the natives, and if anyone drags his feet and affects the overall situation, he will be dealt with according to military law, and the consequences will be weighed. ”

"Yes! Got it! Everyone quickly calmed down and nodded yes. Military law is not a copycat rule, and sometimes you lose your head.

"Alright, don't make a noise, don't interrupt."

Wang Jin nodded with satisfaction, pressed his hand again, and looked at Xu Guanzhong. The latter nodded slightly, got up and shook off the paperwork, and stepped forward to announce.

"The edict is that Xiao Jiasui, a pharmacist, sits in the base camp of Liangshan and coordinates the overall situation.

Hao Siwen was the commander-in-chief of the fortress of Baoqian Mountain, and controlled and dispatched all armies.

Xiao Zhang Liang and Xu Guanzhong served as the military division of the expeditionary vanguard army and concurrently served as the deputy marshal. The generals of all armies must complete the run-in of their troops and horses. If the target is not completed within the time limit, it will be carried out in accordance with military law and will be carried out to the end. ”

Xu Guanzhong said that in the end, he had a straight face, and scanned the many leaders in a circle with murderous anger. Hearing the chorus of the crowd, he retreated to his position and sat down.

Lu Zhishen

jumped up: "Brother, the Shanshiqi brothers have not arrived, and the Sprinkle family has ...... overnight"

"Yes, Brother Du Qian is still in Liangshan."

"We are even more miserable, the general Han Shizhong is not on the island."

Others, such as Zhou Xing, Pang Wanchun and other leaders, got up one after another, a little anxious.

"Don't worry, don't worry, it's not April yet, there is time to prepare." Wang Jin saw the impatient appearance of everyone and hurriedly waved his hand.

"Yes, master, don't be in a hurry, brothers." Wen Huanzhang got up with a smile and clapped his hands. A group of officials quickly brought wine, meat, dishes, fruits and vegetables, filled several large tables, and invited everyone to come into the table and drink.

In the Juyi Hall, dozens of people talked and laughed, shouted loudly, and drank heartily.

It wasn't until late at night that it dispersed!

The next day, before dawn, Ruan Xiaoer led the team back.

They also want to rectify the water army and send back the latest instructions from the cottage. Han Shizhong, who was holding the calf mountain fortress, led the headquarters to be transferred, and the problem was solved. As for the affairs of Shan Shiqi, Lin Chong and others, Wang had already mentioned before he came in that the overseas war was coming, and their task was to guard their homes.

Overnight, notices of military reform were posted in various military camps on Jeju Island. Originally, there were reports of the generals of the divisions stationed in the defense area looking for the general.

Lu Zhishen, Du Bao, Shi Bao, Zhou Xing and other generals were busy gathering troops for training. Fortunately, the battalions often cooperated in the past, and the grassroots officers were old acquaintances. Now that the battalions have been merged, everything is going well.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed.

There was no movement on the side of the Wa Kingdom, but Ma Ling, the god of the horse, sent someone to send back the good news.

After a year of covert development, Yangsan's business in Goryeo became bigger and bigger. Buy land as a wealthy merchant and build a manor

。 On the pretext of cultivating and building workshops, slaves and maids were purchased from the hands of the lords and powerful people in various places.

(Goryeo also admired Han and Tang culture, and the Song dynasty abolished slavery.) The state of Goryeo has been retained to this day, and the status of slaves and maids is equivalent to that of cattle, sheep and livestock)

These bought slaves and maids only need to keep them fed and clothed, and they are faithful. The young and strong were gathered and trained as guards, and there were more than 2,000 people.

At the same time, Yangsan Seiko gradually infiltrated all walks of life, such as the port opposite Jeju Island, where many Seisaku were dormant, and even many Goryeo soldiers were bought off by money. Riot at any time and help the cottage take the port.

In addition, the remnants of the royal family of the former dynasty of Goryeo have been in contact with Daoist Ma Ling. Gather people to riot and try to overthrow the rule of Goryeo.

Wang Jin was not blindly optimistic, ordered to act cautiously, and waited for news from the Japanese state. The time quietly entered late April, and finally the news came back overnight.
