Chapter 298 Once there is a change, report it quickly

 Nancheng Camp.

In the military tent of Guo Yong's camp, Jia Heng was sitting behind the commander's desk, looking at Song Yuan and other civil servants, as well as Cai Quan and other generals below.

The generals Shan Ming, Xiao Lin, Shao Chao, Du Feng, guerrilla generals Qu Guang, Zhou Dong and others were sitting there, while the governor, Che Zheng, said he was ill and was recuperating at home.

After Che Zheng filled up the salary gap he had received over the years, and obtained Jia Heng's political commitment to peace, he basically assumed a posture of no longer interfering with the military affairs of Guoyong camp.

Seeing that he was well-informed and interested, Jia Heng did not rush to replace him. Otherwise, the Fifth Army Governor's Office and the Ministry of War might wait for an opportunity to select military generals to act as a check and balance.

"The commander-in-chief, the commander-in-chief Qianshi Lu He, the general Gao Cong, and the guerrilla general Yang Zhihou all submitted their resignations yesterday," Song Yuandao said.

When Jia Heng was in Huayin County, he had persuaded several generals of Guoyong Camp to resign, but so far, only three generals have responded to the call and submitted their resignations.

Jia Heng looked calm and said, "Bring it over and let me take a look."

I received the resignations of three people, and the main message was that they were all too old and weak to bear the heavy responsibility, so they requested to be relieved of their duties and return to work.

And all three of them were found to have serious shortfalls, especially Lu He. As the governor-level general of Guoyong Camp, and Xia Mu, who is also the governor-general, are almost the same culprits for Guoyong Camp’s poor combat effectiveness.

.

"Have someone send it to the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War." After reading it, Jia Heng took the governor's official seal and stamped it.

As a result, Guoyong camp has two vacant commanders, and they are not in a hurry to fill the vacancies.

As for participating generals and guerrillas, there is no fixed quota, and they can be supplemented or not.

As a result, Guoyong camp now has four generals and four guerrilla generals.

Jia Heng said: "Generals, Guoyong camp, starting from today, we will begin to fully organize the army. This is a new style of conduct. The 12th battalion of the new army will be named after Fenglinshan Mountain, A, B, and C. This conduct will be issued to the new army."

All camp generals must memorize it, and I will ask the Central Guards to go out for random inspections in three days."

With that said, he handed the books prepared in the past two days to Cai Quan, Qu Guang, Shan Ming and other generals.

They are all formation training from previous lives.

Let’s start with these basic exercises and then perform complex queue conversions.

Even in the era of hot weapons, the formation itself is a reflection of the combat effectiveness of the army. Queue switching, signaling and ordering, riding and walking in parallel, and coordination... these are all part of training.

In the later movie The Battle, the Thirty-sixth Division acted as the Huangwei Corps of the Guo Army. If they were not convinced, they started to organize themselves. Military experts said that if they really walked out of that queue, they would not be surrounded and annihilated in Shuangdui.

The generals took the book, some frowned and thought deeply, some looked at each other, and some had bright eyes.

This was completely different from the current drills for training Chen Han soldiers. For a while, several generals had doubts, but due to Jia Heng's long-term prestige, they did not dare to question it.

Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "Select one camp from all the camps as a teaching camp, and I will personally train it."

He planned to train a battalion first and then distribute it to the entire army.

Jia Heng looked at the three generals Du Feng, Shan Ming, and Xiao Lin standing aside, and ordered: "Yuan Shenji, Shenshu, and the third battalion of the fifth army will also rectify military discipline and start drills from now on."

"Yes, sir." All the generals responded in unison.

After the military discussion was over, all the generals received their errands and got busy.

Jia Heng turned to look at Cai Quan and said: "The children of the Jia family who came with me will also be incorporated into the training camp and will be treated the same as ordinary soldiers. They will not be treated preferentially, and they will even be subject to strict restrictions."

Cai Quan nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, sir."

After arranging military affairs, Jia Heng frowned and asked when Cai Quan hesitated to speak, "What's the matter? You're hesitating?"

Cai Quan lowered his voice and said: "Sir, some details of Wang Jieshuai's army reorganization strategy have been spread. Now other battalion leaders are talking about it. Many people will lose their military positions this time."

Cai Quan had been in the Beijing camp for some years, so he knew some of the generals at the head of other camps, and he had not lost contact with them since he was promoted to guerrilla general.

"What's going on?" Jia Heng frowned and asked.

Cai Quan said: "There are just some rumors spreading. I heard that at Wang Jieshuai's birthday party yesterday, Prince Nan'an and Prince Beijing from the Fifth Army Commander's Office came to congratulate him and mentioned the matter of army reorganization."

With that said, Cai Quan explained Wang Ziteng's strategy on how to eliminate the old and weak.

After listening to this, Jia Heng's eyes darkened and he said slowly: "There is nothing wrong with the military selection method. After the vacancies are checked in the Beijing camp, 40% of the remaining troops must be eliminated before it can be effective."

There is nothing wrong with Wang Ziteng taking such drastic measures. If it were him, he would do the same.

It is just necessary to take care of the aftermath and be careful of anyone inciting soldiers to mutiny.

However, Wang Ziteng may not be without support.

During this period, he learned some information from Shan Ming and Shao Chao, two former members of the Jia family. After the prince entered the capital camp, he still had two camp leaders who strongly supported him. One was Li Xun, the governor of Yaowu camp.

The position of Commander-in-Chief Qianshi holds more real power in the capital camp than the Commander-in-Chief to some extent, because he is in charge of daily affairs such as training and military orders.

There is also Pang Shili, the general of the Yangwei camp. This is a rare general in the Beijing camp. He is serious and cautious. The Shenshu camp led by his subordinates is considered to be worthy of a battle in the Beijing camp. This is what Xie Zaiyi mentioned to him.

of.

As for Yue Qing, Yao Guang and others, their talents are mediocre, but they don't need much ability to help mobilize troops to suppress the situation.

"Wizi Teng has the righteousness of the court in his hands, and Pang Shili's Yangwei battalion cavalry to suppress the entire army. Yue Qing, Yao Guang and others are leading the troops to respond. The risk of mutiny among the soldiers is actually very small, because as long as the order talisman is confiscated, the official

The high-ranking generals in charge of training cannot even mobilize a single soldier. Usually the troops are led by thousands or hundreds of households. Without high-ranking generals taking the lead, these people may not have the courage to cause trouble." Jia Heng thought: "But

There will definitely be a lot of resentment when so many people are eliminated, and if there are people who are willing to instigate us, we are not afraid of 10,000, but just in case."

Thinking of this, Jia Heng looked at Cai Quan with a solemn expression and said: "Let people pay attention to the movements of the soldiers in the regiment and camp. If there are any changes, report them quickly."

No matter what, the Beijing camp cannot cause trouble. Once Wang Ziteng cannot control the situation, his battalion will step in to suppress it and maintain the situation.

Cai Quan said: "Yes, sir."

Jia Heng watched Cai Quan leave, thinking on his face.

If there is a mutiny or even riot in the Beijing camp, there will not be a big chaos, but the impact will be very bad.

"But we can't say it in advance now, because we haven't seen any signs yet, and if we ruin someone's good deeds, we will easily be targeted. This is to block the gun for the prince." Jia Heng thought for a while and planned to go to the Five City Soldiers.

Ma Si, no matter what, he now has two forces in his hands and can suppress the situation at critical moments.

Arriving at the Wucheng Military and Horse Division, Jia Heng summoned Dong Qian, Fan Yi, Xie Zaiyi and others to the back hall to discuss matters.

Jia Heng said: "Mr. Fan, people have recently stepped up their vigilance and closely monitored the movement of the four city gates. They must monitor and report the soldiers in the Beijing camp."

The city of Shenjing consists of three parts: the outer city, the palace city, and the imperial city. The twelve regiments of the capital camp are all stationed outside the city, and soldiers are regularly deployed to defend the city by the censor who patrols the city.

There is also a strict order that without the order of the Ministry of War and the emperor's order, the troops in the capital camp are not allowed to enter the sacred city without permission.

Except for the Sanhe Gang and the dispatch of troops from the Guoyong camp, Jia Heng never dispatched troops to Shenjing City.

The public security in Shenjing City is handled by the Five Cities Military and Horse Division and the Jingzhao Mansion. The imperial city is also guarded by the inner guards and the Longxiang Four Guards Battalion.

Fan Yi had doubts on her face and asked, "Sir, could something have happened?"

"Wang Jieshuai wants to eliminate the old and weak in the Beijing camp, which may cause trouble. We are taking precautions in advance." Jia Heng said loudly.

No matter how chaotic the capital camp is, no trouble can be caused in the city of Shenjing.

Hearing this, Fan Yi's expression changed slightly and said, "Sir, I'll go and make arrangements right now."

Jia Heng quickly warned: "Don't let any rumors leak about this matter. Just say that the New Year is approaching and all departments must take precautions against fire and theft."

Fan Yi nodded in agreement.

After Fan Yi left, Jia Heng turned to look at Xie Zaiyi and asked: "Commander Xie, how is the security in Dongcheng recently?"

Xie Zaiyi cupped his hands and said: "Although I dare not pick up things on the road and do not close my house at night, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and everyone has their own time."

Jia Heng nodded and said: "Let's do it now. We will see the situation next year and then transfer you back to the Beijing Camp. Guoyong Camp is the time to hire people."

Letting Xie Zaiyi stay at the command post in Dongcheng is indeed overqualified and underutilized.

And there is another problem, that is, there is no space on it.

Xie Zaiyi looked excited and said: "Thank you sir, I have long wanted to return to the capital camp. Even if I am appointed as a hundred households under your master, I will be happy to go!"

At first, Xie Zaiyi thought that Dongcheng would be a good job, but as Jia Heng, the commander-in-chief of the army, immediately led the troops to suppress the bandits and returned, his thoughts began to grow.

Not mentioning Jia Heng's secret plans, but saying that in the Beijing camp, after Wang Ziteng released the army strategy, some military academies in the Beijing camp that were on the list of eliminations became panicked and rumors spread everywhere.

This is just like the news that the company is suddenly going to lay off employees, which makes people panic.

Of course, the key is that in recent years, floods and droughts have prevented harvests, and disasters have occurred frequently. Many generals and soldiers in the Beijing camp have relied on a share of lumi from the Beijing camp to support their families. This has resulted in the loss of tens of thousands of people, involving many people and causing resentment.

If you soar to the sky, you will cause trouble.

Let alone Prince Teng, it would be useless for Jia Heng to host it himself.

As for some high-ranking generals, they also communicated in private because Wang Ziteng wanted to check the vacancies over the years and ordered them to make up for the bribes.

For a time, some generals and commanders began to secretly spread the news, and people in the Beijing camp were panicked.

And Wang Ziteng also said that he was vigorous and resolute.

On that day, after lunch, at the Fenwu Camp located to the west of Longshouyuan, the prince opened the military tent of the Commander-in-Chief, raised the banner, and ordered the high-ranking generals above the guerrilla generals of the 12th regiment to go to the military tent to discuss matters.

In the large tent of the Chinese army, the prince sat in the middle with his helmet on his head, his face indifferent, and behind him Fang Ji, the military recorder, and Ji Min, the military recorder, were waiting on the left and right.

Ni Biao, the general of the Central Guard Army, led the Guard soldiers and surrounded the Central Army camp with water.

Different from the Wei and Jin Dynasties, when the Central Guards Army was often in charge of the Imperial Guards, guarding the Imperial Guards, and presidential generals, with high authority, today's Central Guards Army is more like a commander-in-chief and a personal soldier general.

A commander like the Jiedushi of the Beijing Camp would have his own army of guards around him, his rank would be equal to that of a fourth-grade general, and he would lead three thousand soldiers, making it easier to command and intimidate the generals.

Yue Qing, Yao Guang, Pang Shili and others led their generals and retinues.

Xue Pan now also put on a Chen-Han official military uniform. Next to General Ni Biao of the Central Guard Army, his big copper-bell-like eyes were moving around, looking at the generals in the military tent.

With an indifferent gaze under his thick eyebrows, Wang Ziteng glanced past the generals above the guerrilla generals of the 12th Regiment Battalion. He didn't see Jia Heng, so he couldn't help but frown.

"It's okay if you don't come!" Wang Ziteng thought for a while and sneered in his heart, but he didn't care.

At this moment, not only Jia Heng did not come, but there were also several governors of the 12th Battalion. The governors also knew that Tuoji had not come. Some of them were high-ranking princes and uncles, so Wang Ziteng could do nothing.

In the military tent, 60% of the generals also came.

Wang Ziteng said in a deep voice: "Generals, listen to the order. I have been ordered by the emperor to reorganize the capital camp. I am now ordering all camps to follow the method of selecting elites from various provinces during Taizong's practice. The selection period is one month."

The generals below heard this and looked at each other in shock.

Wang Ziteng said in a deep voice: "Fang Ji, the chief of marching, joins the army in the recording office to count the rosters of each camp and check for vacancies! The governor Li Xun, the counselor general Yue Qing, and the guerrilla general Yao Guang went to each camp to select the vanguard.

Soldiers! Guard general Ni Biao leads the central guard army with two thousand men, and inspects the soldiers along with him! In order to show off his power to the camp commander Pang Shili, he leads the five thousand cavalry of the Shenshu camp under his command, and patrols the camps without making any mistakes!"

As military orders were issued one after another, the faces of the generals below became ugly, and their eyes gradually became gloomy.

This is about to be played for real!

But at this moment, the Chinese army's tent was full of evil spirits inside and outside, and they did not dare to disobey orders, so they responded in unison.

When Wang Ziteng saw this scene, he felt a little happy. He softened his tone and said, "Everyone, this time the audit found that only half of the silver was recovered and nothing else was involved. I hope you and other generals will appreciate my commander's magnanimity and take care of themselves!"

This was based on Fang Ji's suggestion and the "successful experience" from Jia Heng's reorganization of the Guoyong Camp.

Wang Ziteng thought that he had done everything he could and was extremely benevolent, so he filled in these vacancies, and used some of them to settle the soldiers, while the rest was used to win over the generals who came to serve.

Of course, if someone comes to serve and actively cooperates with the army, he will also reduce the number as appropriate.

After the generals were ordered to submit their rosters, a vigorous army reorganization in the Beijing camp began.

At this moment, Xue Pan's copper bell-sized eyes were shining brightly, and he secretly said: "This is my uncle, who is even more majestic than cousin Heng."

Thinking of this, I saw that the surrounding Central Guards had their own duties, and felt a little itchy in my heart. I walked quickly to Wang Ziteng, imitated some military generals, clasped my fists, and said: "Uncle, do you have any orders?

"

Wang Ziteng frowned and said, "In the army, everyone calls me for official positions, so you should call me Commander-in-Chief."

Xue Pan scratched his big head and said with a smile: "Yes, uncle."

Wang Ziteng: "..."

Meeting such a nephew gave him a bit of a headache. Wang Ziteng frowned and said in a deep voice: "You can follow Chief Fang to other camps to see how vacancies are checked, and you can also learn something."

When Xue Pan heard this, he was very happy and said, "Uncle, I'll go right away!"

Wang Ziteng thought for a while, but felt uneasy. He called a general and said, "Jiqing, take him with you."

"Yes." The general immediately obeyed the order.

Shenjing City, Ruyifang

This is a mansion with a vast area and beautiful trees. It is the residence of the Prince of Nan'an County.

The palace's pavilions, rockery and waterside pavilions create a unique atmosphere.

As night falls, the luxuriously decorated study is brightly lit and warm as spring.

Yan Ye, the prince of Nan'an County, was sitting on a huanghuali wooden Taishi chair, with two young and beautiful concubines behind him holding his shoulders. Although Yan Ye was nearly fifty years old, he was very energetic, and his concubine alone took in twenty

Three bedrooms.

At this moment, sitting on the chairs not far away were Liu Fang, the first-class son of Li Guogong, Hou Xiaokang, the first-class son of Xiu Guogong, and Shi Guangzhu, the former military governor.

General Ma Shang and others.

"Your Majesty, Wang Ziteng has begun to organize the army. In the afternoon, military orders have been circulated to all camps to select frontline soldiers." Hou Xiaokang, the commander of the rear army and the son of Duke Xiu, said in a low voice.

.

The Prince of Nan'an County sneered and said: "Let him worry about it first. The resentment is not big enough now. It is such a cold winter and the twelfth lunar month, if so many soldiers are eliminated, there will definitely be some troubles."

Liu Fang hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, our people..."

"Don't act rashly yet. I feel now that maybe without our people moving, some people will be unable to sit still." Prince Nan'an interrupted with a gloomy look on his face.
