The officers of the cavalry division are appointed by Qi Zhuang himself and can be reported afterwards. The rear guard division is composed of eight guard brigades. In addition to Guargeda in Udisk and Zhao De in Tugursk,
Six hundred households were newly appointed, including the Malji Oroqen tribe of Dujigensik, Wu Huacheng of Erguna City, Lu Dacheng of Gulihe City, Wang Sanyou of Shouyi City, and Dingyuan City of Dingyuan City.
Zhao Wei.【】uuBecause Yask is the headquarters of the legion, and there are Guards and Cavalry Divisions stationed there, the Yask Brigade, which was expanded from the original Yask Security Team, was moved to the division's headquarters in Tugursk. The brigade has hundreds of households.
Peng Sixi, who came from the old army of Wu Army, was in charge.
Among the eight brigades of the rearguard division, only Lu Dacheng was promoted directly from the security team. The other seven were transferred from the original 2nd Infantry Regiment and the 3rd Infantry Regiment. Only one of the eight, Malji, was from Oroqen.
The other seven were all born in the Han army. Lu Dacheng was originally transferred to the security team because he lost an eye in Wengerling, but now he was transferred back from the security team and was promoted to a hundred households. This makes
Lu Dacheng was extremely surprised.
The Guards Division is organized into the third brigade of the Fourth Regiment. The four captains are: Jiang Si, Chen Wei, Ji Feng, and Tang Erguang. Jiang Si is the former captain of the first brigade of the Third Infantry Regiment, Chen Wei
Zhao Qiang was a guard, formerly in the old army of Pingnan Wang Shangzhixin. He had not participated in the Dingyuan battle, and was only responsible for the Dingyuan silver mine for a period of time. Due to the rapid expansion of the army, the airs were too big, and the officer vacancy was too large, Zhao Qiang called him
He returned Chen Wei and asked him to lead a regiment. Ji Feng and Tang Erguang were also from the old Wu Army. They were originally members of the 100th Infantry Regiment of the Second Infantry Regiment and were now promoted to the position of Qianhu Regiment. Twelve brigades
The Baihu officers appointed six officers from the Han army and six from foreign races. Wei Xiaojiang, Wusman, Yi Amu and other Baihu officers from the original 3rd Infantry Regiment still served as Baihu military officers. Greaves
Ji and his Cossack brigade were incorporated into the second brigade of the first regiment. They were not promoted to military titles and were also members of a hundred households.
The first batch of 500 soldiers trained by Wu Si's teaching brigade have all been assigned, and they have all been promoted to one level, from sergeant to sergeant, from sergeant to small flag, and from small flag to general flag. Together with the original officers, they have become the backbone of Guan Ning's army.
For the appointment of officers with a household size of less than 100 households, Zhao Qiang required each division to have half and half Han and foreign military officers. That is to say, if there is a general banner of the Han army, there must be a general banner of foreign origin. For this order, each division has carried out the order quite thoroughly.
, after the entire reorganization, there were about 200 foreign officers and less than 150 Han officers in the three divisions of rear guard, guard and cavalry.
The old Wu army that followed Zhao Qiangbei totaled more than 480 people. In addition to the 130 people who died in battle, there were still 350 people left. The eastward detachment took away another 240 people, so they remained.
There are only one hundred and ten people under Zhao Qiang, and twenty-seven of these one hundred and ten old Wu army troops have been disabled, so there are only more than eighty old brothers left, all of whom have served as officers, and the vacancies are filled by those who
The descendants of the Han army served as the Ming Guard.
While confirming the officer titles of each division, Zhao Qiang did not forget Wu Si. He personally wrote the appointment certificate of Jin Wanhu to Wu Si, and raised the level of the teaching brigade to the same level as the division, and planned to do so one year later.
According to the needs of the war, the teaching brigade was transformed into a teaching division, and the Guanning Army Army Officer School was established at the same time. As for the candidate for the principal, Zhao Qiang thought of himself in a bad way, but this matter was still on paper and had to wait for the outcome of the Battle of Yaksa next year.
Only when it comes down can we free up our hands for construction. As for Guo Fei, Zhao Qiang has not mentioned his plans for Wanhu for the time being, and is considering waiting until next year.
After each division reported the candidates for the general flag and small flag officers on the third day of November, Zhao Qiang asked each division to allocate one-third of the small flags and general flags to report to the Shouyi City Teaching Brigade for a period of four
Month-long crash training for officers. At the same time, all units immediately carry out tactical training without any slack.
The officers of the Guards Division are generally not satisfactory to Zhao Qiang, but because the Guards Division is a pure firearms unit built by Zhao Qiang, the individual command abilities of the officers have little impact on the battle situation. All the fire guns have been distributed, and the received
The regiment of fire cannons began to train, and those who did not receive them were replaced with wooden cannons to conduct training on queues and passwords.
The construction of prostitute camps has also begun. The largest prostitute camp is located in Yask, because the largest number of troops are stationed in Yask. A total of 370 Russian women were gathered and placed in this prostitute camp. The prostitute camp is located in Yask.
Next to the Third Regiment of the Southeast Guards Division of Yask, it covers an area of more than 40 acres and has 320 large and small wooden houses. The person responsible for the management of the Yask Prostitute Camp is Qi Baisheng, a former official of the Department of Public Security. This person was selected as the Yask Prostitute Camp.
The reason why he was appointed as the officer of the prostitute camp in Sk was because he was well versed in this field. Before joining the army, he was the Turtle Gong of a brothel in Fucheng, Guiyang. Qi Baisheng was unable to charge into battle, so it was perfect for him to manage the prostitutes, so Zhao Qiang asked Wei Ji if he had a suitable candidate.
At that time, Wei Ji first thought of Duke Gui of Qi.
After Qi Baisheng received this appointment, he was also overjoyed. Who said that being a Turtle Lord would have no future? The commander-in-chief gave me a military title of the general banner. Besides, he has so many Rakshasa women in charge, what needs does he have?
That's not just a matter of saying a word behind closed doors. He has more than three hundred Rakshasa women under his command, and he would be happy to be a bride every night. After receiving the order, he would lead thirty
The famous subordinates went to select their own "female soldiers".
After referring to the prices in Guan Nei and the Russians, Wei Ji set the price of one tael of silver for a prostitute camp. This price is not low. In Guan Nei, a few copper coins can be used to pay for a brothel sister once. This tael of silver can be used for several prostitutes.
Zhao Qiang was surprised when he heard the price, but Wei Ji's explanation made him agree with the price. Wei Ji's explanation was just one sentence: "We don't have any copper coins on hand to exchange."
After Wei Ji said this, Zhao Qiang realized that it was true. Most of the areas occupied by Guan Ning's army were barbaric and cold places that the Manchus ignored. The residents here had no business concept at all. They adopted the ancient method of selling goods.
In the barter method, for example, if he picked a ginseng, he would not sell it based on how much silver or copper coins the ginseng cost, but how much grain, oil, salt, and cloth the other party would pay to buy it. Therefore, common currencies such as silver and copper coins are used in
There is no circulation here at all. Now Guan Ning's army has obtained a lot of gold and silver from the Russians, but if it is not used, it will be waste. Now Zhao Qiang wants to make money from the soldiers and start commercialization, but he must implement high price standards, otherwise
He simply didn't have that much copper money for soldiers and for circulation in the market. He couldn't let soldiers come over or buy wine or anything like that. He had to keep accounts for him first and then collect the money when he had enough one tael of silver to count.
One tael of silver is just one tael. If the situation improves in the future, the price will be lowered to prevent the soldiers from saying that the commander is too evil. Thinking of the word "dark heart", Zhao Qiang rolled his eyes, looked at Wei Ji with a smile, and said in harmony
said:
"From now on, the people will be responsible for the business of this prostitute camp, restaurants, cloth shops, pharmacies, etc. You can set up a commercial department to take care of these. This matter has a long way to go. There will be many places where the army will use money in the future. Wei
Ji, you should worry more."
"Yes, I'll do it when I get back from my humble job. Don't worry, Commander." Wei Ji said this, but secretly thought that Commander-in-Chief had made it clear that he wanted to keep the reputation for himself. He was just a hands-off shopkeeper who only took money and didn't care about anything.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and snow has begun to fall more than 30 miles northwest of Yask. The soldiers' hands and feet were cold when they were doing exercises, and their faces were red from the cold. Many soldiers could hardly hold their weapons. Here is the report
Later, Zhao Qiang became extremely anxious and hoped that the six months of rest would be enough to train the soldiers. However, these six months were also a period of time that could freeze people to death. The soldiers' hands and feet could not bear the training and they would not do the exercises.
Without losing the fighting power, I really don’t know what to do. Liu De suggested asking the people of all ethnic groups if they have any solutions to the problem of cold hands and feet.
I just sent someone to ask, but I didn’t expect that someone actually came up with a method. The person who suggested the method was an old man from Daur. He said that by applying the oil from animal bodies to the human face and body, the human face and fingers can be protected from frostbite.
When Zhao Qiang heard this, he immediately understood what this meant. He secretly wondered why he had not thought of it. He immediately rewarded the old man with one hundred catties of grain and thirty catties of meat, and then immediately asked people to spread this method to the whole army, and also to participate in it.
The peasants and people who built the city greased their hands and feet to prevent frostbite on their hands and feet, which would delay the construction period.
