Regarding the subsequent armament upgrade plan, Lin Jing understood that it could not be completed in a day or two. There was still a lot of preparation work to be done before that, but now Shen Tingyang also brought him good news, that is, in Tianjin All the 3,300 soldiers recruited have been put in place, and the more than 500 officers selected from the Beijing camp are basically in place.
After such a turmoil in the capital camp, all the nobles and nobles in the capital camp were wiped out. Wu Weiying, the newly appointed governor of the capital camp, was bent on currying favor with Lin Jing, so this also brought a benefit , that is, no one will have a negative impact on the selection of the Beijing camp, and there is less room for secret operations, allowing many outstanding talents to gradually escape from the Beijing camp.
The sun was scorching, and the campus in the capital was once again filled with soldiers. However, this time it was different from the previous one. The number of people was not as many as 60,000, but only more than 30,000, which is the actual number of people in the current capital camp. It can be said that Basically everyone in the Beijing camp, except Ban Jun, arrived at the school grounds.
Lin Jing still stood on the platform, while Wu Weiying, the obedient marquis, stood cautiously at the bottom. As for the other generals in the Beijing camp, they also stood cautiously in the back row, together with the ministers and officials in the East Palace. Look at the roll call activity going on below.
"Gao Li!"
"have!"
"Thank you Zi Fang!"
"have!"
"Hu Kai!"
"have!"
"The roll call has been completed. There are a total of 523 soldiers on the roster. They have all arrived at the school grounds now."
A Ming army general with a solemn expression carefully put away the list in his hand, walked up to the platform, and reported the current situation to Lin Jing.
Lin Jing nodded slightly, looked at Yang Tinglin beside him and said with a smile: "Boxiang, I have left all my talents to you. I will ask you if I can bring out a good army in the future."
Yang Tinglin puffed up his chest slightly and said, "Your Highness, please rest assured that I will live up to His Highness's expectations."
Speaking of which, Yang Tinglin was indeed very confident at this time. He had witnessed the talent selection process of the Beijing Camp with his own eyes. It can be said that after these more than 500 officers entered the Prince's Military Camp, they would naturally have the ability to build a military force. With the foundation of a strong army and the recruitment of more than 3,200 honest men from Tianjin, half a year is enough to create a strong army.
Lin Jing smiled slightly and said: "But there is one more thing at the moment. We cannot make arbitrary arrangements for the more than 500 people this time. It is best to divide them into two special military training classes. One is for junior special forces for low-level officers. The training courses mainly cultivate relevant tactical abilities; the first is an advanced special training course for senior officers, which is more about cultivating certain strategic thinking abilities and command and planning abilities."
Yang Tinglin was a little strange when he heard this. He said softly: "When we were selecting in the Beijing camp, we had already considered this aspect. Since they can stand out, it means that their level is pretty good -"
Zhu Cixi shook his head slightly, "Right now, we can't continue to follow the old tactics in terms of tactics. In fact, I have prepared a new tactics, which can be implemented as long as the firearms are in place -"
"Firearms? Does His Highness mean to train according to the model of the Shenji Battalion?"
"No, it's not just that."
Lin Jing said softly: "I plan to fully distribute muskets to the prince's military camp. At that time, the training process will mainly focus on line formation. In addition, the artillery aspect will also be enhanced."
Yang Tinglin was a little confused and said: "But the current muskets are not accurate enough and the power is not very good. If they are all equipped with muskets, if Donglu rushes over with dead soldiers, we don't have the slightest hand-to-hand combat capability. I'm afraid we will be killed immediately."
It was a huge rout, not to mention Donglu’s cavalry.”
Lin Jing smiled and said: "That's because our current firearms are useless. If the range of our muskets can be increased several times, the power can be increased several times without exploding the chamber, and the firing speed will also be improved. What do you think?
Can it be changed? If our artillery can also be improved in this way, do you think this method of warfare can be used?"
Hearing this, Yang Tinglin's face suddenly showed a trace of confusion, and said: "If this is really the case, then of course it is possible... But where do such firearms come from?"
A mysterious smile appeared on Lin Jing's face, and he said: "Of course it will be created, but it is still early for this matter. You can take people down first."
"Yes, Your Highness."
After Yang Tinglin took the people away, Wu Weiying's face showed some reluctance. He was a general of the Three Thousand Battalion before, so he was naturally very clear about the things in the Beijing camp. It can be said that more than 500 people were sent away now.
The number one was one of the few in the capital camp, and all of them were snatched away by the prince.
If there was another person in front of him, Wu Weiying would not agree to it anyway, but to the prince who just spoke for him, he did not have the guts to say "no", but it would be good to take this opportunity to complain.
"Your Highness, there is already a shortage of talents in the Beijing camp. After this meeting, I am afraid that the combat effectiveness of the Beijing camp will drop even further. I am a little worried that I will not be able to communicate with Your Majesty in the future."
Wu Weiying said cautiously that he did not dare to offend the prince who recommended him, but he did not dare to offend the moody Emperor Chongzhen. If the capital camp was completely reduced to a mess in the future, wouldn't he follow in Xue Lian's footsteps?
Lin Jing saw Wu Weiying's worries, and in order to prevent him from thinking wildly, he decided to reveal the truth. He pondered for a moment and said: "The problems in Jingying can no longer be solved by rectification. In fact, for Jingying right now, I
It is more inclined to strip out the high-quality power from it, and then it can be completely banned."
Wu Weiying was immediately startled and said: "When will the Beijing Camp be cancelled?"
"That's right."
Lin Jing sighed and said: "In fact, in view of the current mess in Beijing Camp, just rectifying it will definitely be of no use. Therefore, the imperial court is currently building a Feather Guard Army, which is modeled on the original Yongwei Camp. When the time comes, wait for the Feather Guards
After the Wei army is successfully established, it will officially replace the role of the Beijing camp."
Speaking of this, Lin Jing hesitated slightly and said: "Li Banghua's reform of the capital camp this time is a cover in itself, mainly used to cover up the existence of the Yu Guards."
Wu Weiying was stunned. He finally understood why he was able to rise to the top. It was not because Lin Jing valued him, but because the Beijing camp was about to decline, and Wu Weiying's role was more like paving the way for Li Banghua.
, so that the other party will have less trouble.
However, Wu Weiying was still a little confused about what to do.
"Please also invite your Highness to teach you." This chapter has been completed!
