Along with Gao Mingbo, there were nine remaining recruits who had not been sent to each battalion. They were all packed up by Instructor Jiang and brought to Liucheng.
A house with three entrances next to the Yingzhou Governor's Mansion is currently being cleaned up. This house belongs to an elder who followed Dalang Jun Tuli of Pinbu to fight in Bailang Mountain. The elder was beheaded on the spot during the battle.
The whole family was harmed by Xiao Langjun's house raiding operation.
Because people have been living in and maintaining it, this house does not need major repairs. It only needs simple tidying up and cleaning, changing all the past living rooms into official rooms, removing household utensils and decorations, and moving in books and documents.
Cabinets, etc.
When Gao Mingbo entered, the cleaning work had already reached the final stage. Many servants were sweeping the floor and scrubbing tables and chairs. Instructor Jiang took them to visit the three-entry compound and then told them that this would be Yingzhou from now on.
The military headquarters is also where they handle military affairs.
There is a brand new wooden plaque hanging in front of the main hall when you first enter the courtyard, with the three characters "Yu Housi" written on it. The new paint on the wooden plaque has not yet dried, and Gao Mingbo can smell the slightly pungent smell.
The second courtyard belongs to the "Education Department". Gao Mingbo can guess the general functions of his Yuhou Division through the name, but he does not understand the relationship between education and military. The third courtyard is the "Training Department", which is a very good name.
It's easy to understand, but I never thought that the Yingzhou Army would set up a division specifically for the purpose of training new recruits.
After going around in a circle, Gao Mingbo and the three recruits returned to the Yuhou Division where they belonged and waited quietly in the wing. Several others were assigned to the Education Department and the Training Department. After truly understanding this, Gao Mingbo felt deeply in his heart.
There was great joy. He came from a wealthy family, so he naturally knew the significance of entering the center to do things.
Zhang Xingzhong met the four recruits who had registered one by one in the main hall of Yuhousi. During the training period, these four recruits all showed a certain ability to read and digitize, and they all seemed to have read many books. The first three recruits were all locals in Liucheng.
One family is in the city and two families are outside the city. They have been secretly inspected. According to the words of Li Chengzhong, the military envoy of Liucheng and the governor of Yan County, the guerrilla general Li Chengzhong was "preliminarily determined to be politically reliable", so Zhang Xingzhong merged
He didn't say much, just encouraged them to do their best.
Only the last one’s family background is not very clear. According to me, he is from Yan County. Generally speaking, it is not easy for people with unknown origins to be transferred to the Yuhou Division. However, because the instructors strongly recommended him, they believed that this person trained hard and had excellent grades, especially
In terms of knowledge, he was "far superior to his peers", so after Zhang Xingzhong thought carefully, he still wanted to see it with his own eyes.
"Are you Gao Mingbo?" Zhang Xingzhong looked carefully at the young man in front of him who had a hint of bookishness but was still heroic.
"Sir, new recruit Gao Mingbo is reporting in!" Gao Mingbo knocked his heel, fisted across his chest, and performed a crisp military salute. He didn't know the name of the officer in front of him, nor his military position, but in
I met Zhang Xingzhong at the bonfire dinner last night. At that time, he had been closely following General Li, chatting and laughing with General Li freely from time to time. With Gao Mingbo's knowledge, of course he knew that the other person must be a high-ranking person.
Zhang Xing nodded emphatically. More than a month of training had given these recruits a preliminary "military manner" - another new word from General Li. At least this military salute was very standard.
"Do you know why I asked you to come here?"
"Sir, Chief Instructor Jiang said that someone was assigned to the Yuhou Division."
"Well, that's not entirely true. Yuhousi is one of the three divisions of our Yingzhou Army Headquarters. It has very heavy military affairs and not just anyone can come in. I have read your evaluation by the instructor group and the evaluation is very good. I also
I really want to recruit you here, but we are from the military, so we can say whatever we want. Your origin is a bit vague. When you were recruited to join the army, you reported that you were from Yan County, but I'm afraid that may not be..."
White sweat suddenly appeared on Gao Mingbo's forehead, and his heart was pounding like a drum.
"Now you have two choices," Zhang Xingzhong said slowly: "First, if you still don't know clearly, nothing will happen to you. It's just that you have to go to each battalion and start as a new soldier. Your future needs to be solved with real swords and real guns.
"Secondly, if you explain clearly, I will leave you in Yuhousi. You must also know what your future prospects will be."
Gao Mingbo gritted his teeth, barely thinking, and immediately revealed the truth. The reason why he confessed so happily was that he had been in the recruit camp for more than a month and already knew that the Yingzhou Army did not distinguish between ethnic groups when recruiting soldiers.
secondly, in more than a month of training, he has developed a conditioned obedience to orders given by superior officers; thirdly, Gao Mingbo comes from a wealthy family after all, and understands that Yu Housi's work is different from that of an ordinary soldier.
How big is the difference between cadres and cadres? In other words, joining Yuhousi will save him at least three to five years of hard work.
Hearing Gao Mingbo recount his entire experience from birth to joining the army, Zhang Xingzhong couldn't help but be moved. It turned out that the man in front of him was actually a descendant of a wealthy family in the Bohai Kingdom! He remembered what the other party had just said that he did business in Yan County, and he made a decision immediately
.
"Gao Mingbo!"
"arrive!"
"From now on, you enter the pedestrian area of Yuhousi to work!"
Gao Mingbo was overjoyed, hesitated for a moment, and bravely asked: "Sir, I am from Bohai Country. Can the seniors rest assured?"
Zhang Xingzhong smiled: "The Yingzhou Army does not care about their origins or where they come from. The Mohe people are the people of the Tang Dynasty, and the Bohai Kingdom is also a feudal state of the Tang Dynasty."
…..
After the first batch of new recruits were trained and officially entered the camp, the Yingzhou Governor's Mansion held the first meeting of all army officers above and above since Li Chengzhong returned to Liucheng. At this meeting, Li Chengzhong officially launched the long-awaited plan of Yingzhou
Military restructuring plan. In fact, this plan has already obtained the consent of most senior officials, and the relevant battalions and divisions have also begun preparations, but it still needs such a formal occasion to announce and finalize it.
"I'm going to announce..." Li Chengzhong paused in a very pretentious manner. This little trick was something he learned from his time in the army before crossing over. Following this pause, dozens of officers immediately stood up, heads held high and chests held high, without squinting.
, Sure enough, they are extremely majestic. These officers all followed Li Chengzhong and fought their way out of the soldiers. No one expected that they could reach this point so quickly. Most of them did not know their specific job appointments, but since they were summoned here,
I knew I was about to be promoted, and I was very excited at this moment.
"The Yingzhou Army was established, and the former battalion designation of the original "Pingzhou Army" was cancelled. The Yingzhou Army established a headquarters and five battalions. The headquarters were: Yuhou Division, Education Division, and Training Division.
The Yuhou Division consists of the Operations Department, the Military Order Department, the Logistics Department, and the Pedestrian Department. The Operations Department is responsible for combat planning, combat mobilization, combat deployment, and combat command; the Military Command Department is responsible for the formulation of military laws, the execution of military orders, army construction, and military organization; the Logistics Department
Responsible for logistics, weapons and equipment, and military pay; the pedestrian department is responsible for espionage and intelligence gathering.
The Education Department consists of the Propaganda Department, the Military Law Department, and the Merit Examination Department. The Propaganda Department is responsible for publicity in the military and the education of soldiers; the Military Law Department is responsible for the supervision of military law and the enforcement of military laws; and the Merit Examination Department is responsible for assessing merit and recording resumes.
The Combat Training Department consists of the Recruitment Department, the Training Department, and the Bailangshan Military Academy, which are responsible for the recruitment and training of new recruits and the training of officers.
The five battalions are: 1st Infantry Battalion, 2nd Infantry Battalion, 3rd Infantry Battalion, Cavalry Battalion and Chinese Army Battalion.
There are three infantry battalions and a cavalry battalion with five battalions each, two teams in each battalion, and five hundred men in each battalion.
The central military camp has four teams, four guard teams with 200 people; four logistics teams with 200 people; two scout teams with 100 people; and two guard teams with 100 people. A total of 600 people."
After the reading, Li Chengzhong took a short rest. According to the new Yingzhou Army organization plan, the army has 2,400 combat troops and 200 logistics troops. Of course, these two hundred troops can also go into battle at any time.
When formulating this plan, Li Chengzhong combined the experience gained from previous battles and equipped it according to the formation during the battle. His equipment was expected to be for the entire army on horseback, with infantry equipped with a single horse, and cavalry and scouts equipped with double horses.
It can achieve fast and efficient maneuvers. In terms of specific arms, he abandoned the past practice of setting up spearmen, sword and shield soldiers and archers in every city. He formulated the first infantry battalion to focus on spears, the second battalion to focus on swords and shields, and the third battalion to focus on swords and shields.
Bows and arrows are convenient for centralized arrangement in large-scale field battles. According to later generations, this large-scale army belongs to the field army sequence.
After letting everyone digest for a moment, Li Chengzhong cleared his throat and began to announce personnel appointments. In the final analysis, this is what the officers care about most, and it is also a way to win over their supporters and reward and promote them.
"Next, I announce..." Li Chengzhong continued to show off and scanned the audience. As expected, everyone was in high spirits.
"Appointment: Zhang Xingzhong is appointed as the Headquarters Yuhou, the Duyuhou, and the rank-and-file Colonel, from the seventh rank."
"Appointment: Jiang Miao is the Education Envoy of the Education Department of the Headquarters and the Colonel of Zhiyi, from the seventh rank."
"Appointment: Zhou Qidao is the Military Envoy of the Training Department of the Headquarters, the Colonel of Zhiyi, from the seventh rank."
"Appointment: Zhong Shao is the commander of the first infantry battalion, with the rank of xuanjie school captain, and the eighth grade."
"Appointment: Jiao Chengqiao is the commander of the second infantry battalion, with the rank of xuanjie school captain, and the eighth rank."
"Appointment: Meng Xuxing is the commander of the third infantry battalion, with the rank of xuanjie school captain, and the eighth grade."
"Appointment: Wang Yibo is the commander of the cavalry battalion, with the rank of xuanjie school captain, and the eighth rank."
"Appointment: Liu Jinhou is the head of the guard army of the middle camp, with the rank of captain of the imperial guard school, from the eighth rank."
"Appointment: Zhao Hongde is the head of the logistics department of the Central Battalion, with the rank of captain of the Imperial College, starting from the eighth rank."
"Appointment: Xie Li is the head of the scouts in the middle camp, with the rank of captain of the imperial school, starting from the eighth rank."
"Appointment: Zhou Xiaolang is the head of the central camp's security department, with the rank of captain of the school, starting from the eighth rank."
These appointments were made by Li Chengzhong after careful consideration, and they were only the positions of the highest commanders of various ministries. With Li Chengzhong's large-scale expansion of the army, after the first batch of new recruits joined the army, the entire army was not full, with a total of more than 1,700 people.
The duty is to recruit the second batch of new recruits. The training period is one month, and the army will be fully equipped by then.
In this appointment, the "Wolf Army" led by Xie Li was reorganized into a cavalry battalion. He himself also changed from the actual commander of the cavalry battalion to the head of the scout capital. As a former surrendered pawn, he could be officially appointed
As a high-ranking officer in the army, it was beyond his expectation.
In Li Chengzhong's plan, in addition to the field sequence, he is also planning the establishment of a reserve army. In the future, the recruitment and training of new armies will become the norm, and the training cycle will be extended to three months. After the future recruits complete the training, they will first
Only those who have outstanding performance in the reserve army can enter the field order.
