After He Zhang announced the military order, the camp of the new soldiers did not become orderly.
In fact, the situation seems to be getting more chaotic.
According to the military order, the soldiers began to divide their respective teams into teams of ten and five teams.
Although there are many factions within the new warrior army, in order to build combat strength as quickly as possible, He Zhang did not forcibly break up the small circles of soldiers and let soldiers from different military towns mix into teams. Instead, he gave the soldiers a great deal of autonomy.
, allowing them to find familiar comrades to form a team. This will not only save a lot of time, but also speed up the running-in process of the new army.
After the formation of the grassroots team, many soldiers began to compete in martial arts, selecting brave men as team leaders, and then elected team leaders based on prestige, experience, qualifications, etc...
After the new team was formed, some new officers couldn't wait to lead the team to challenge He Zhang's soldiers.
The soldiers of the new war army are all the elites of Shaanxi and Gansu. They all think very highly of themselves and never think that they will be weaker than He Zhang's personal guards. Since He Zhang has announced that they only need to defeat these personal guards.
Wei can get many rewards. Naturally, many people are ready to take action and want to receive the rewards as soon as possible!
Unfortunately, as He Zhang had deduced before, the soldiers of the new war army may not be inferior to He Zhang's personal guards in terms of physical fitness, martial arts, bravery, etc., but their combat experience, tacit cooperation, and decisive killing
In other aspects, there is a huge difference. The result of the challenge is naturally to lose but not win, and to come back defeated.
At the same time, after the officers and soldiers of the New Army witnessed the combat effectiveness of He Zhang's private soldiers, He Zhang further strengthened his prestige among the New Army, and the implementation of military orders became smoother.
He Zhang did not stop the new army officers from eagerly challenging the challenge. Instead, he watched with great interest, and secretly took note of the strength of each team, as well as the style and characteristics of the low-level military attachés. This information was useful for
It is crucial for He Zhang to command the new army in future operations.
In the evening, the chaotic situation on the training ground finally improved. The grassroots teams were finally roughly formed, and a group of low-level military attachés were temporarily selected. He Zhang also had a general understanding of the strength and style of some teams.
He Zhang believes that although today's situation is a little more chaotic, and this chaos may continue for two to three days, it is only temporary. The basic framework of the new army has been set up, and everything will improve quickly!
In fact, in just one day, He Zhang's achievements far surpassed that of Hong Gaogong. Hong Gaogong had been leading the army for seven or eight days before, but he had been mediocre and only attracted a group of military attachés as party members.
The ability gap between the two sides is evident from this!
Perhaps, after ten days, the new army of warriors can really form a fighting force!

After the sky gradually darkened, the New Army soldiers gradually returned to the camp to rest.
He Zhang had not rested since he arrived at Huamachi Camp from Guyuan Military Town. Considering his age, he was naturally much more exhausted than ordinary soldiers.
However, the task was severe and the time was tight. After being favored by Zhao Junchen, He Zhang's heart was aroused with passion and heroism, so he had no intention of taking a rest. Instead, he took the time to summon several new soldiers in the commander's tent.
A military attache.
Inside the camp, He Zhang was sitting on the commander's seat, and the military attaches of the new army were sitting on both sides.
Compared with the size and combat power of the new war army, the number of generals in the army is pitiful. Originally there were only a dozen middle-level generals, all of whom held military positions. However, because of Hong Gaogong's cliques, why?
Zhang drove away another group of people, and now there were only eight military attachés from one hundred households left in the camp.
In addition to Mao Jiadong, Liu Manniu, Zhang Cheng, and Li Pi, there are four others named Ding Quan, Ma Rongzhen, Wang Xu, and Hu Dong.
Compared with the first four hundred households, the abilities of these four people are far behind, but after all, they have a certain amount of experience in leading troops. He Zhang currently lacks talents and has to reuse them.
In addition to the eight hundred-household officers of the new Zhanbing Army, there were three other people present in the camp. The two staff advisors were named Guo Lun and Yi Defu. They were both staff members that Zhao Junchen brought to Huamachi Camp from the capital. They were also
Zhao Junchen controlled and monitored the new army of soldiers as an insurance policy; the last person was named Yao Zhenhan, but he was the leader of He Zhang's private army and also held an official position in Baihu.
Looking at the few people in the camp, He Zhang secretly sighed and felt that the task was more difficult than he imagined. With just such a small number of people, it was impossible for the new army to form combat capabilities in a short period of time.
Disaster?
However, He Zhang had a confident and calm look on his face. He first turned to look at Liu Manniu, Zhang Cheng, and Li Pi, and asked in a concerned tone: "Liu Baihu, Zhang Baihu, Li Bai
Husband, the three of you were hit with military sticks today, but can you still hold on?"
Liu Manniu stood up first and said: "General He, don't worry. I'm a humble man with rough skin and thick flesh. It's just a military stick. It doesn't hurt at all. The Imperial Envoy even sent someone to bring medicine for the wound afterwards, so it won't be a problem!"
Behind Liu Manniu, Zhang Cheng and Li Pi only received five military sticks. Although they were not as strong as Liu Manniu, they also showed that they would not be in the way.
Only then did He Zhang learn that Zhao Junchen had given the three of them medicine for their injuries in private, and he couldn't help but be slightly startled.
However, He Zhang didn't think much about it, he just nodded and said: "Since it doesn't interfere with anything, I will use you as I wish. I hope you won't complain."
The three of them said in unison, "Just as General He orders, we will do our best!"
He Zhang nodded, then his expression became solemn, and he finally got to the point: "Everyone must have heard that the imperial envoy Zhao has issued a death order, and the new army must form combat strength within ten days.
, this task is very heavy, and we must use all our strength... In the next ten days, you all have to share more tasks, so don't expect to rest. If you feel too hard and tired, I
I won’t keep you either.”
After hearing what He Zhang said, everyone had serious expressions but did not raise any objections.
Seeing everyone's performance, He Zhang nodded again and said: "Now, the new warrior army consists of ten people in a team and fifty people in a team. The grassroots team has been initially set up, and the grassroots military attachés have generally been settled.
, everything is starting from scratch, it is inevitable that it will be a bit chaotic, and we need to find a way to smooth it out... Military Advisor Yi, you have to worry about the registration of the army's roster! Especially the newly promoted low-level military attachés, you also have to worry about it.
Pay special attention to them and grant them matching official titles as soon as possible. Although they are just some minor flag officers, deputy flag officers and other official titles, they are not important, but after all there are a lot of them. Make a few more trips and let the Governor's Mansion as soon as possible.
Fulfill their official duties."
Yi Defu is tall and thin, with a capable look, which gives people a sense of reliability. This person has the reputation of being a scholar. Although he is not a top-notch person among Zhao Junchen's staff team, he was brought to Huama by Zhao Junchen.
Chi Ying naturally has certain talents. Among the new soldiers, he has always been responsible for conveying military orders and writing rosters. He is also the staff brought by Zhao Junchen personally from the capital. It is best for him to be responsible for this kind of thing.
suitable.
After hearing He Zhang's instructions, Yi Defu immediately stood up and agreed.
Then, He Zhang turned his attention to another staff member, Guo Lun, and said: "In addition, the horses, soldiers, armor and other items that are lacking in the army also require Military Advisor Guo to think of more ways to go to the Governor's Mansion every one or two days.
I would like to urge you. The money, food, armor, and firearms of the officers and soldiers of the army must also be redistributed according to the division of teams... Also, I have announced a military order today. From now on, the meals of the officers and soldiers of the new army will be arranged separately. According to
They will line up twice a day in the morning and evening. The winner will have meat added to their meal, and the loser's meal will be halved. You must also arrange this carefully."
Guo Lun is short, chubby, and has a pleasant smile. He is completely different from the image of Yi Defu. He was originally a businessman, and his status in the Zhao family's staff team is similar to that of Yi Defu, but his ability to manage finances and settle accounts
Second only to Su Xiqing, after arriving at Huamachi Camp, he was responsible for the logistics, money and food of the new army.
After hearing He Zhang's order, Guo Lun also stood up and accepted the order.
Then, He Zhang turned his eyes to Mao Jiadong and said: "Mao Baihu, I have seen your results in training the cavalry these days. Unlike Hong Gaogong, you have real abilities, and I am also very satisfied with the cavalry's training.
Progress...Today's re-division of the ranks is limited to the infantry of the new warrior army. The cavalry has not made a big move. You can continue to train the cavalry according to your own ideas. I will give you full power over the cavalry and will not interfere more...Now
The number of cavalry is still small, and after the imperial envoy finds war horses for us, you can also give priority to selecting elite soldiers to expand the cavalry team."
After Mao Jiadong looked at He Zhang with a scrutinizing look, he also stood up and accepted the order, and replied in a deep voice: "Don't worry, General He. I will definitely train the cavalry well in this humble position, and I will never let the imperial envoy and General He down!"
He Zhang admired Mao Jiadong quite a lot, and after hearing Mao Jiadong's answer, his face was full of satisfaction.
Finally, He Zhang turned his attention to the remaining hundreds of households.
Seeing He Zhang's gaze, several hundred households looked nervous.
Nowadays, the new army of warriors has reorganized the bottom ranks, and the number of troops they will lead and their power status will inevitably change in the future.
The strength of some people's troops will increase, the strength of some people's troops will decrease, and some will even take charge of their own affairs from now on, and all of this depends on He Zhang's decision!
Therefore, several hundred households were nervous and eagerly waiting for He Zhang's decision.
After He Zhang looked at everyone, he finally set his sights on Yao Zhenhan, the leader of his private army.
Seeing the change in He Zhang's eyes, everyone's hearts sank.
Could it be that He Zhang was vigorously promoting his cronies? In this way, wouldn't the other hundreds of households be left out in the cold?
