Chapter 232 Eighth Division and Twelfth Brigade Reorganization Plan
In mid-June of the 17th year of Chongzhen, the latest information came from the Jinyi Guardian. After the Chuang army was defeated in Xuanhua, Li Zicheng retreated to Taiyuan with his main force to rest and recuperate. Datong was handed over to Jiang Xiang to continue to be in charge, and Chen Qiyu resettled the governor of Shanxi in Fenyang.
His attitude towards the imperial court was unclear. Sun Chuanting, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, reoccupied Luoyang and did not declare allegiance to the new emperor for the time being, but continued to use the Chongzhen reign. The southern provinces of Guangdong, Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Huguang and other provinces have confirmed their declaration of allegiance to Nanjing.
Use the Hongguang reign name instead.
The people in Donglin were also uncreative. When the Prince of Nanjing ascended the throne, they used the era name that King Fu used when he proclaimed himself emperor in real history. It seems that the era name was well prepared.
It is no longer easy to judge where Li Zicheng will use his troops after a period of rest. The situation in the world has changed drastically, and Zhu Youjian cannot judge it based on the historical trend in his memory. Logically speaking, the disastrous defeat in the Xuanhua War
, will make Li Zi develop some memory and not dare to make the northern expedition at will, but this guy may not remember food but not fight, and insist on going north to fight with him.
Therefore, taking advantage of this period of calm, it is necessary to make military preparations. Unlike the central political system, which is temporarily inactive, Zhu Youjian's thoughts on the military are to be completely changed from top to bottom.
"All the generals, as well as the main responsible persons of the Cabinet, Royal Horse Supervisor, Ministry of War, Taipu Temple, and Jinyiwei are all here. I will now talk about the main strategies of this military reform. The highest military decision-making body after the Ming Dynasty is the Military Order Hall, Military Order
I am directly in charge of the Great Seal of the Hall, and normal military orders are issued by the Chinese Army Governor's Office and reported to me for approval. The Fifth Army Governor's Office will remain, but its functions will undergo major changes. The Chinese Army Governor's Office, also known as the Military Command Department, is responsible for the command and dispatch of the entire army.
Issuance of war orders. The Rear Army Governor's Office, also known as the General Logistics Department, is responsible for the logistics affairs such as money, food, military supplies and supplies. The former Army Governor's Office, also known as the General Staff, is responsible for the praise and strategic negotiation of military strategies. The Right Army Governor's Office
Also known as the General Armament Department, it is responsible for the production, development and distribution of ordnance for the entire army! The Zuo Army Governor's Office, also known as the General Military Department, is responsible for supervising military orders and the implementation of military discipline, as well as reviewing military merits and approving officer personnel work." This structure is basically
The above is modeled on the four-headquarters system of later generations, except that there is an additional military headquarters.
After taking a sip of tea, Zhu Youjian continued: "The Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Army is basically the same team as the Military Commandery Hall, with two titles. There is one Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Army, who is also the deacon of the Military Commandery Hall, and seven deputy governors, who are also military commanders.
The director of the hall is concurrently held by the commanders of the other four armies, the minister of the Ministry of War, the minister of Taipu Temple, and the commander of the capital garrison. Some dispatch positions can be set up under the deputy governor. The difference between the military command hall and the central military governor's office is that the chief of the cabinet
The auxiliary general also has a quota of deacons in the Military Command Hall. The Military Command Hall is configured with two deacons and seven deacons. All members of the Military Command Hall discuss all important military matters and report them to me for signature. There are regular military strategies that are discussed by the Central Military Governor's Office.
, the Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Army will sign it, submit it to me for review, and file it with the cabinet for record keeping."
Hearing this, Chen Xinjia, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, almost became anxious! With this, the Ministry of War would lose all its military power. He really couldn't think of any other military power that the Ministry of War could do.
"All matters concerning the military power of the Royal Horse Supervisor will be transferred to the Fifth Army Governor's Office and will no longer be involved in the military! The military affairs that the Ministry of War will be responsible for in the future will mainly include the following. First, the recruitment and recruitment of the entire army will be carried out by the Ministry of War and its subordinates to the provinces.
The Ministry of War agencies of prefectures and counties are responsible for this! Secondly, the recruitment and teaching of general school students are the responsibility of the Ministry of War. Thirdly, the defense of the country and the planning and construction of defense zones are the responsibility of the Ministry of War. Fourthly, the overall budget of military expenditures is roughly calculated by the Houjun Governor's Office
After that, it will be reported to the Ministry of War for review and discussion. There are no conditions for this work to be carried out for the time being, and it will be discussed later. Taipu Temple will hand over matters directly related to the military to the Military Order Hall, and will then be responsible for military assets involving civilian affairs, which can be regarded as half of the military
Institutions. Except for the Taipu Temple and the Ministry of War, other military institutions are not allowed to participate in civil affairs, especially business affairs. The army is to protect the home and country and is used for fighting! I and the imperial court will find a way to deal with the funding!"
After finishing the outline of the restructuring of the General Command Center, Zhu Youjian went on to talk about the personnel arrangements in this area. The commander-in-chief of the central army is naturally Huang Degong, the commander-in-chief of the rear army is tentatively named Chen Xinjia, and the commander-in-chief of the left army is Zhang Guowei from the Ministry of War.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Army is Zhang Fengxiang, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Right Army is Wang Zhixin, the Royal Horse Supervisor. In addition, Ma Ke, Bai Guangen, and Tang Tong serve as Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the former Army, Qin Liangyu concurrently serves as Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, and Song Yingxing concurrently serves as Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Right Army.
Wang Dehua and Taipusi Qing concurrently serve as deputy governors-general of the rear army. After the restructuring is completed, the final candidates will be determined. Eventually, all personnel in the military departments, including the Ministry of War, will be converted to the military officer system, regardless of whether they were civil servants or eunuchs before.
"Tentatively, the Ming Dynasty's combat troops are organized into eight main battle divisions and four independent brigades! Four of the main battle divisions are combined into two reorganized armies. The reorganized army consists of two divisions and a military cavalry regiment.
It consists of an artillery regiment, two baggage regiments, a military hospital, and some other miscellaneous personnel, totaling 30,000 people! In addition to the main battle division and corps, a cavalry assault brigade, a heavy artillery brigade, and two carriage mobile brigades are also organized for combat operations
Support force. This is a combat system. In addition, there are eight temporary security brigades, which are stationed in the main prefectures and counties in Northern Zhili and are responsible for local defense. In case of emergencies and emergencies, the security brigades can be placed under the temporary control of the local governor or prefect.
.Military units above the brigade, front, rear, left, right, and the four military commanders must send corresponding personnel to assist the military chief in handling daily affairs. Their chiefs and chief and deputy military chiefs jointly form the headquarters of the military unit. Military orders in peacetime
It is decided by the headquarters through consultation. During wartime, the chief military officer can act arbitrarily! When the chief military officer is unable to serve as director, the deputy military chief takes over in sequence. When the deputy chief military officer is unable to serve as director, the chief of staff in charge of the military affairs of the former army takes over."
Eight main battle divisions, plus four brigades, and two military headquarters, the total number of combat troops will be around 1,340,000. Plus the garrison and security brigades in the capital, the total strength will be 1,780,000. At present,
Generally speaking, the fiscal revenue and expenditure can only support so many standing troops at most. A rough calculation shows that as long as the reorganization is in place, this many troops should be enough to cope with the current situation. The current enemies, except Li Zicheng, have no other forces.
There are so many soldiers and horses available. Although Li Zicheng's side has a large number of people, there are not that many that are really useful, so the force is enough for the time being.
Zhu Youjian's idea was to have two reorganized armies, one of which was composed of a cavalry division and a mule-horse infantry division, which was considered a super mobile force, and the other army was conventionally armed. Four independent main battle divisions were stationed in
The four independent brigades of Baoding, Xuanhua, Miyun, and Shanhaiguan are used as support forces during major wars. The security brigade is responsible for territorial security affairs in peacetime, and must be converted into a logistics support force during wartime. In the capital, Qin Liangyu's white pole
The Han army before the soldiers and Jinyi Guards will be responsible for the palace garrison, ceremonial guards, and the daily defense of the capital. If the capital is facing troops during war, other soldiers will definitely be dispatched to the city to assist in defense. As for the daily security of the city, the Yamen will be needed.
Establish a security team to solve the problem.
