The main peak of Mingxiu Mountain is only a hundred feet high, far less than Tongbai Mountain. The peaks of Funiu Mountain are steep and steep, but Mingxiu Mountain is close to Biyang City, surrounded by mountains and hills, with lush vegetation, beautiful mountains and rivers, and excellent scenery. There is also a building.
In the early years of the previous dynasty, the Tiansheng Temple was a prosperous place in Biyang County.
The Tiansheng Temple has a history of four to five hundred years since its completion. During the Tianxuan period, the Biyang County government specially raised money and grain to carry out major renovations. In addition to the three main halls and dozens of yellow-tiled and red-walled wing rooms in the temple, there are also
A new mountain gate was added, making it a famous temple.
However, after the establishment of the Beijing-Xiang Production Department, because there were too few public buildings, Xu Huai ordered the Tiansheng Temple to be directly requisitioned as a garrison for the Selective Army in the east of the city.
After the year, Chihu drastically reduced its troops in the middle, and the two-year confrontation came to an end. Beijing and Xiang also significantly reduced their regular troops, and more than two to three hundred thousand soldiers either returned to the supply line or returned to their hometowns to participate in local construction.
However, not only did the production department not retire most of the generals and military officials from active service, they also expanded the structure of the Tianxiong Army and the Selected Front Army.
At present, not only has the war come to an end, but the training and training of the battalions have also been greatly alleviated. It is precisely the majority of military generals who have escaped from the battalions and entered the army at all levels.
A good opportunity for training in the samurai's residence.
At present, in addition to the Rushen Caisan War Zone and Biyang, which have officially reorganized the original warrior houses into four junior military command schools, responsible for the training and rotation of middle and lower-level officers and reserve officers, Xu Huai will further renovate the
The Tiansheng Temple was vacated, and the Jingxiang Advanced Military Command School was newly established, which is responsible for the rotation training of middle and senior generals in the army.
At present, the entire Beijing-Xiang army does not count the supply troops, but only the garrison and combat troops. The number of generals above the general level is already 5,000, among which the number of generals above the battalion level (commander, deputy commander) is also 5,000.
More than a thousand people.
After rising in the Tongbai Mountains in his early years, Xu Huai trained the Zhufengtang Guards as the core force; during the period of guarding Shuozhou, he set up the Lifengtang as the core to gather the strength of his direct lineage; when the Chushan Army first took shape, it will
The focus shifted to the construction of the samurai residence, and Xu Huai also personally served as the mountain chief of the samurai residence——
This time, Xu Huai also personally served as the mountain commander of the Beijing-Xiang Advanced Military Command School.
Whether it is a samurai residence or a junior or senior military command school, in addition to cultivating and improving the military command capabilities of generals and military officials at all levels, more importantly, it provides a collective life for military generals and military officials at all levels in Beijing and Xiangzhou.
Space and opportunity...
Since the founding of the Dai Viet dynasty, the long-term practice has been to use civil society to control military affairs and to use civil society to govern military affairs, splitting up the huge army and relying on a clearly hierarchical civil service system to organize and operate.
Nowadays, after the civilian system has been eliminated from the army in the various defense zones, the Gu family and the Gao family were originally families of generals, and they mainly rely on their direct descendants and retainers to form command structures at all levels to control the army.
Although Ge Boyi (Ge Yu) and Liu Yan were also born as generals, the Ge family and the Liu family suffered severe blows in the previous wars. There were not many direct descendants left, but the relationship was maintained for a long time and the relationship was deeper with the retainers.
, the group of generals became the backbone of their control of the army.
Yang Lin (Yang Qiye) and Han Shiliang have shallower foundations, but before the fall of Bianliang, they were already senior generals at the command level, and when Bianliang fell, their core troops were not damaged.
They all expanded their troops and horses based on the core troops, so they also have good control over the army.
The command systems of Deng Gui, Zhang Xin and other departments were basically newly established after Emperor Xiangyang ascended the throne, and there was no foundation at all.
Therefore, after Emperor Shaolong ascended the throne, he easily removed the military power of Zhang Xin and others, and Deng Gui had to choose to rely on Gu Fan. He was the first to come forward and offered the strategy of dividing the garrison, and then he was able to lead his troops to Huaidong.
However, these groups of troops also share a shortcoming that is difficult to ignore, that is, there is a serious disconnect between the middle- and senior-level generals and the middle- and lower-level military officials.
The middle and lower-level military officials below the generals in various tribes are basically chiefs of clans and townships, and lack direct contact and ties with the top military leaders.
This is mainly determined by the current form of soldier recruitment.
For the vast majority of ordinary soldiers who are illiterate and do not even have the opportunity to enter the county town to see the world a little when they grow up, clans and natural villages where clans live together are basically their entire connection with the world.
Not only do ordinary soldiers only recognize clan and township leaders after entering the army, the grassroots army also has to rely on clan, township and clan leaders to organize normal training.
Carry out normal troop formation.
The disconnect between the mid-level and senior generals and the grassroots military officials, as well as the unevenness of the grassroots military officials, determines that when going out to fight in the city, you can only use strict formations to constrain groups of soldiers to fight.
Once the formation is broken up, it is difficult to re-establish a new command system in a short period of time. This also leads to the fact that once the formation is broken up, it often leads to an irreparable defeat.
Jingxiang can overcome this problem by insisting on selecting and training brave and capable warriors from ordinary soldiers, ensuring an adequate supply of middle- and lower-level military officials, and ensuring that small units of soldiers and horses have certain independent combat capabilities.
The practice and training of officials are carried out in a centralized manner, prompting them to form a group that is familiar with each other, cohesive, and connected from top to bottom.
Compared with other soldiers and horses, they rely on strict and brutal military laws to ensure the transmission and execution of military orders from superiors to subordinates. Of course, Beijing and Xiang also need a certain level of hierarchy to ensure the normal operation of the command system.
However, the military officers and generals in Beijing and Xiang were divided into different classes based on military merit, supplemented by the number of years of training in warriors at different levels.
This not only allows the generals to have a clearer identity, but also allows them to see the order and prospects of promotion more clearly, and motivates the generals to kill the enemy from top to bottom - unlike the traditional command structure, where middle- and lower-level military officials stand out
No matter how many military achievements you have, you will rarely have the chance to be promoted to the ranks of mid- to senior-level generals. If you make a mistake, you will not have to worry about how severe the punishment will be.
Of course, this also determines that Xu Huai's control over the entire army will not be limited to Xu Wuqi, Wang Ju, Pan Chenghu, Guo Junpan, Wang Xian, Chen Zixiao, Xu Xin'an, Tang Pan, Tang Qing, Yin Peng,
Han Qi, Wu Chihai, Wu Chige, Fan Zongqi, Shi Hu, Wang Jun, Wang Zhang and other direct generals.
However, the Jinghu bandits in Jingpingdong recruited millions of hungry people, and then engaged in a two-year high-intensity confrontation with the Red Husbands in Rucai. The number of grassroots military officials more than doubled, and the systematic
Practice and cultivation lag behind due to the intense and intense war.
Now that we finally have a free space, we naturally have to fill it up quickly.
Xu Huai received a letter from the imperial court at the Mingxiu Mountain Higher Military Command School. He learned that Hu Kai was sent to Hengzhou, Wang Boqian was appointed as the Privy Envoy, and Liu Yan was transferred to the court as the Deputy Privy Envoy. Xu Pu replaced Liu Yan in charge.
You Xiaoshengjun and a series of other things happened suddenly, and Zheng Tu and Wang Fan had not had time to send the information to Biyang.
"This loophole is huge!" Han Gui joined the army as a reporter, and all official letters had to go through his hands first. Naturally, he also considered that Hu Kai would be expelled from the court, and Liu Yan would break away from You Xiaosheng's army and leave from Luzhou.
What are the negative impacts of things like transfers to the Privy Council?
"Go back to Biyang!"
Xu Huai didn't say much, but rode back to Biyang City with Han Gui and Xu Wuqi, who was the chief instructor of Mingxiushan Higher Military Command School. When they returned to Jingsheng Hou Mansion, Shi Zhen, Dong Cheng,
Zhou Jing, Pan Chenghu, Guo Junpan, Su Laochang and others also received the notice and were already waiting at the Hou Mansion.
"This time the loophole is huge!"
Shi Zhen's first words when he saw Xu Huai were the same as Han Gui's reaction when he saw the notice. He thought that the negative impact of the transfer of Hu Kai and Liu Yan would be too great. He frowned and said,
"It seems that the Red Guards simply withdrew their troops in early February, which greatly affected the man in the palace!"
Because they understood the beauty of Beijing-Xiang's new command system, Shi Zhen and Han Gui became more aware of why the traditional command structure of the world was so taboo about changing generals on the spot.
As a veteran general of the Youxiaosheng Army, Xu Pu cannot be unfamiliar with the Youxiaoshengjun and the defense of Luzhou, but can he truly master the Youxiaoshengjun before the Chihu people launch their eastward offensive this fall and winter?
, Liu Yan’s subordinates who stayed in the Youxiaosheng Army, and Jie Zhong, the second general Liang Wenjiang who is equivalent to Xu Pu in terms of qualifications and other aspects, will there be a rift with Xu Pu, or will Xu Pu be able to endure the temper and reconcile with Xu Pu?
The relationship between the direct generals is unpredictable at this time.
In addition to the Youxiaosheng army and Luzhou defense, after Emperor Shaolong ascended the throne, in order to control the court, he also sent a group of generals including Zhang Xin, Liang Shiwang, Yu Gong, Yu Zheng, Ling Jian and others from the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army and
The Jianye navy cleared out.
After the generals of the Huai Prince's family took charge of the Beijing-Xiang Forbidden Army and the Jianye Navy Army, they cleaned up the generals and military officials promoted by Zhang Xin and others - this made the imperial court above Luzhou still deploy five troops in Jianye and along the Yangtze River.
Compared with the first battle of Huainan, the combat effectiveness of the Wanduoshui Infantry Army, which was not very strong in the first place, has not only not been strengthened, but has even been weakened.
Of course, the more critical thing is that Hu Kai was expelled from the court.
Since Emperor Jian's successor Xiangyang ascended the throne, Hu Kai has been in charge of the Privy Council - Hu Kai is not only the most familiar with the dispatching of troops and defense arrangements, but also the one with the highest prestige.
The success of the first Huainan battle in driving the captive troops back to the north of the Huaihe River was inseparable from the brave fighting of the soldiers and horses of all the tribes, and also without the mobilization and deployment of the troops and horses of the various tribes by Hu Kai as the Privy Envoy.
At that time, not to mention the reinforcements from Jinghu, Jiangdong and other places, as well as the left and right Xuanwu Army and Jianye Navy led by Deng Gui, Zhang Xin, Ling Jian and others, even Zheng Huaizhong, Zheng Cong and his son who led the Shenwu Army to reinforce Huainan,
He also obeyed Hu Kai's advice.
If after autumn this year, the Chi Hu people launch an offensive across Huaihe River from the east again, will Wang Bo potentially replace Hu Kai and mobilize troops from various ministries to reinforce Huaixi?
Or can Emperor Shaolong feel confident that Liu Yan will go north to supervise the war as the deputy privy envoy?
