Volume 9 Chapter 63 The Headquarters of the New Army of the Ming Dynasty

"The new army has a total of 1,500 people, including 500 infantry, 700 artillery and 300 logistics troops, this is the staffing of the new army suggested by the real person, what does Brother Hu think?"

1,500 people, that is, the strength of a regiment in later generations, Hu Bayi only served as a company commander in later generations, and he was in charge of more than 100 people, which can be regarded as a five-level promotion at once, and he is already very satisfied.

Moreover, the strength of a regiment is just right, and if he is sure that he can command it well, if he really wants him to command tens of thousands of people at once, he may not be able to play it.

For the positions of the three people, his positioning is also very clear, his own general soldier is equivalent to the regiment commander, the fat man, the deputy chief soldier, is the deputy regiment commander, and Shirley Yang, the general, is the chief of staff.

But this is only in terms of the size of the troops, Hu Bayi's actual position is equivalent to that of a commander, and the rank must be at least a lieutenant general, because he is the commander-in-chief of the Ming New Army, not just the commander of a 1,500-strong army.

No matter how many people there are in the new army of the Ming Dynasty, he is the commander of this army, if this army has a division of people, he is equivalent to the division commander, there is a person of the army, he is the army commander, there is a person of a large military region, he is the commander.

During the inverted fight, Wang Fatzi always jokingly called Hu Bayi Commander Hu and Shirley Yang as Staff Officer Yang, but he didn't expect that now they have really become similar characters.

Hu Bayi listened to Ah Jiu's words, nodded and said: "It's very reasonable, the infantry equipment is just that, after all, you have to keep a part of it as a reserve and replacement." ”

"Artillery according to various artillery models are different, each requires two to five people, we have more than 200 artillery pieces of all kinds, 700 artillery with 300 logistics soldiers just right, Master Zu is an expert. ”

Ah Jiu said: "That's good, the new army has been formed a few months ago, the infantry is drawn from the Jinyi Guard, all of them have martial arts, and the artillery is composed of a part of the Jinyi Guard and a part of the Shenji Battalion soldiers." ”

"The Shenji Battalion is originally a unit that uses firearms to fight, and the soldiers I transferred to the new army are all artillery officers, and they have some foundation and experience. ”

When Hu Bayi heard this, he couldn't wait to see his soldiers, so he said, "Where is the new army stationed? Can we go and meet now?"

Ah Jiu smiled and said: "This is not in a hurry, they are all stationed in the western suburbs, more than twenty miles away from here, you just came here today, it is not too late to rest for one night, doesn't Brother Wang want to taste the imperial meal? I will order the imperial dining room to prepare in a while." ”

"In addition, the weapons and equipment are still in the Fengtian Temple, and someone has to be sent to transport the weapons over, and a few of you must be present for this matter, otherwise I am afraid that the soldiers will accidentally damage the equipment. ”

Hu Bayi said appreciatively: "This is true, if you don't understand it at all, it's easy to do bad things, then okay! We'll go to the camp tomorrow." ”

The three of them ate at the same table with Chongzhen Ajiu in the Qianqing Palace, and enjoyed a beautiful meal, Chongzhen was very frugal on weekdays, but today after all, he was to entertain important guests, and it was the imperial chefs in the imperial dining room, which was a rare busy time.

After eating the imperial meal, Ah Jiu personally led the three of them to their mansion, which had been prepared as early as when Hu Bayi and they went around to buy grain.

Ah Jiu also specifically asked Hu Bayi whether to prepare a mansion for each of them, or if the three of them lived in the same mansion.

The three of them have no relatives and no reason in this world, and one person lives in a mansion, which is not only wasteful but also boring, and besides, they will have to stay in the barracks most of the time in the future, so just prepare a mansion.

This mansion is located in Beichang Street outside Xihua Gate, which is convenient for them to go to the western suburbs, and the plaque on the door of the mansion is hung according to Hu Bayi's request, and the sign of "Daming New Army Headquarters" is also considered to satisfy his bad taste.

This mansion covers an area of more than two hectares, the layout of the mansion is regular, the craftsmanship is excellent, and the pavilions are staggered, but it is not luxurious, after all, Chongzhen is a diligent and thrifty emperor.

The mansion is composed of two parts: the residence and the garden, and the residence is divided into two roads, the left and right, and is composed of a multi-entry courtyard with a central axis running through the south and north.

That is to say, this mansion contains many courtyard houses, Hu Bayi and they can live in whichever building they want, if this is left in the future generations, there will be no tens of billions of dollars, and they will want to buy such a mansion.

Of course, in later generations, such mansions will become intangible cultural heritage, and money cannot buy them.

Ah Jiu had already sent someone to inform the house in advance, because when Ah Jiu arrived with Hu Bayi and his party, as soon as he opened the gate, he saw hundreds of men, women, and children lined up in the front yard, including maids, nurses, cooks, handymen and other service personnel.

An old man with gray hair stood at the front, but he was the housekeeper of the mansion, and when he saw the group enter the door, he recognized the new owner of the mansion at a glance.

After all, the dress of Hu Bayi and the three of them is too different from theirs, which is in line with the image of a strange person in the world that the person who came to inform him.

The butler immediately clenched his fists and bowed and shouted, "Welcome the three adults back to the house." ”

The others also hugged their fists, and the blessings of Wanfu said in unison: "Welcome the three adults back home." ”

Hu Bayi hurriedly raised his hand and said: "Please get up, you're welcome, everyone will be a family in the future, and I have to ask you to take care of ......."

Wang Fatzi smiled softly at Ah Jiu: "This sudden big scene, we are really a little uncomfortable." ”

A sly smile flashed in Ah Jiu's eyes, and he said: "Yes, in the words of your time, this is the so-called 'evil feudal social system', or I will remove all these people, and you will 'do it yourself, and have enough food and clothing'?"

After Ah Jiu watched "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", she was particularly interested in all kinds of later generations, so she asked Luo Changfeng to upload more literature about later generations, because she knew a lot of later cultures, and there was nothing wrong with saying this.

"Gah?"

Wang Fatzi was dumbfounded, he ran to the Ming Dynasty with Hu Bayi, wasn't it just to experience the feeling of experiencing the aristocratic lord of feudal society?

Hu Bayi glared at Wang Fatzi angrily, coughed, and said, "This...... On the issue of the social system, we have to pay attention to applicability, right? Since we say that we should follow the customs of the locals, we can't do something special!"

"Besides, such a big mansion, if we really want to do everything ourselves, we won't be able to do anything all day and night, and the cleaning time alone is not enough, even if it is the head of the later generations, then there are still orderlies, right?"

"But I have to warn you, fat man! This servant can have it, but you have to remember your identity and origin, and you can't engage in bureaucratic style......"

Hu Bayi said as he hooked Wang Fatzi's neck and dragged him aside, Shirley Yang looked at the backs of the two, sneered, and said, "Heh, man." ”

"Poof"

Ah Jiu couldn't help laughing, these two goods are really interesting, with them in the future, her life will not be boring.

In this way, the trio of touching gold can be regarded as having their own place in the Ming Dynasty.

Ignoring the two muttering on the side, Shirley Yang generously spoke to the subordinates on behalf of the owner of the mansion, and finally waved his hand, everyone was rewarded, and it was regarded as a meeting gift from the new owner.

Anyway, their expenses are all reimbursed by Chongzhen, and with the kindness of others, Shirley Yang will not feel distressed.
