Eliminate redundancy, select a strong army, and select by competing with Zhejiang soldiers and white-pole soldiers in terms of skills and physical strength. It cannot be said that the selected people must be powerful, but at least they are soldiers who can be trained and used.
According to the relatively strict screening method, it is estimated that there are only a few thousand people left who can barely keep up with the strength of Zhejiang soldiers and white pole soldiers.
There may not be many people selected, but this is a stage that the new Beijing camp must go through.
What should we do with the tens of thousands of people left?
Could it be that the Jingying camp retains less than 10,000 people? The rest are all unemployed? King Chuang called him an expert...
Zhu Youxiao had a plan.
He said to Zhang Weixian and three others: "The Beijing camp originally had three major battalions, each with different sources and positions. Now it is a bit careless. So I want to set up three major corps, and one of them will retain three major battalions."
"Want to hear the details."
"There are 70,000 people in the Beijing camp. Excluding the old, weak and local ruffians, the available number is estimated to be about 30,000, and the number that can pass the strict screening is estimated to be less than 10,000. Of course, these soldiers and horses cannot be simply eliminated, but have their own uses."
Yang Sichang and Hong Chengchou looked at each other. They were worried about this. Now it is naturally best for the prince to supervise the state.
Zhu Youxiao raised a finger: "The first corps under the Beijing Camp is the Military Police Regiment. The Military Police Regiment is the Royal Guards, a strong force that maintains discipline. It can not only guard the ceremony, but also enforce the law and fight."
"The second one is the Garrison Corps. This is mainly responsible for the garrison and guarding of important places in the capital and Northern Zhili. They are the guards for daily defense. They may not have strong combat power, but they must be loyal and have strict military discipline."
"Last, but very important..."
Zhu Youxiao looked at the three of them and held out three fingers in his hand: "The third corps is called the conquest corps. In the future, it will take turns to fight with the Royal Horse Supervisor. It is positioned as the strongest in the Ming Dynasty and conquers all directions."
Gendarmerie, garrison and expeditionary corps.
The name sounds very ordinary, but it is concise and concise.
Unlike the mighty names of Tengxiang Four Guards, which directly express the functions of the three corps.
"Then the past three battalions...should be divided into three corps?" Zhang Weixian first thought about splitting the past three battalions.
Zhu Youxiao shook his head slightly: "No, there are still three battalions within the three corps, and the Shenshu battalion has changed its name back to the Three Thousand Battalion."
He took out a pen and paper and wrote down the names of the three corps. Within the three corps, he also wrote down the Fifth Army Camp, the Three Thousand Battalion and the Shenji Camp.
"I see, the three major battalions are still there, but instead of the huge Beijing camp being directly divided into three major battalions, there are three major battalions under the three corps." Zhang Weixian understood.
Zhu Youxiao placed his hand next to the words "gendarme regiment":
"The Gendarmerie Regiment is mainly the royal guard, the symbol of the Ming Dynasty's capital camp, and the force to maintain discipline. It must be able to fight and watch. The military discipline is very strict and can restrain other soldiers and horses."
The word "Xian" has a clever meaning in its original meaning, which is extended to law and order. The gendarmerie immediately knew that it represented the imperial court.
They must be able to watch like the elites of the Beijing camp in the past. After all, it is the face of the Ming Dynasty and the royal family. This time, they must be able to fight and restrain other soldiers and horses.
"As for the strength of the military police regiment, it can be fully equipped with 20,000 troops in the future, but currently it will be established at 10,000 people, mainly qualified candidates selected from the Beijing Camp, with a slight supplement from loyalists from the Southern Army and the Nine Borders.
Those who join the gendarmerie camp of the Nine-Border South Army can choose those who are loyal and meritorious, including those who have been injured. I believe that the honor guard in the Beijing Camp should not be just white, fat, tall and strong soldiers, but should have loyalty and majesty.
military discipline."
"I understand."
The three of them immediately made a note that after the screening of the Beijing Camp, they would be reorganized. This military police regiment would obviously be a killing force.
"Then there is the garrison. Although the soldiers are not that strong, their loyalty must be guaranteed, and the basic skills of defending city gates and walls must be excellent. It is planned to have a full strength of 40,000 people. Currently, the soldiers in the Beijing camp who do not need to be eliminated but are not suitable for field battles are organized into
Join the garrison."
Colonel Zhu You clarified the functional positioning of this corps, with defense as the top priority and the ability to maintain public security and suppress bandits.
There are also five military battalions, three thousand battalions and Shenji battalions in the garrison corps. According to standardized training, outstanding candidates will also have the opportunity to be promoted to the three major battalions of the other two corps.
"For the expeditionary corps, you must be able to fight. With good equipment and generous treatment, it must not be worse than Jiubian. Just like the Royal Horse Supervisor, more than half of the time is spent on expeditions.
As for the full strength of the army, which is 20,000, but the current strength is 10,000, and Qin Liangyu, Qi Jin, and Zhang Mingshi will be absorbed as the main body. In the future, soldiers and horses from all over the Ming Dynasty, those with great military exploits, strong strength, and loyalty can enter the Beijing camp to conquer the army."<
/p>
Zhang Weixian and others thought it was okay. This time the prince used Zhejiang soldiers and white pole soldiers to enter the city and annihilate the rebels vigorously. The strength of these two troops is obvious to all.
Like Yuma Jian, they are direct descendants of the prince, and I heard that they have implemented some of the Mohist system and spirit.
In the future, Jingying will also be a direct descendant of the royal family. It is expected that after the reorganization, the giant system and the Mohist spirit will also be implemented.
"The Jingying camp also changed its name, just like the Border Army, the Southern Army, and the subordinate Datong Army, Yulin Army, and Shizhu Army, it was renamed the Ming Dynasty Jingjun."
In this way, each level will begin to take shape.
The Ming Dynasty's Beijing Army has three major corps, including five military camps, three thousand camps, and the Shenji Battalion.
Referred to as army, regiment and battalion level.
Starting from the military units directly under the capital, in the future the whole country can be standardized and institutionalized.
Zhang Weixian and others are thinking that the Beijing Camp will now be renamed the Ming Dynasty Jingjun after the Border Army.
There is also a gendarmerie regiment that is positioned as the royal guard, but it must also be able to fight, and must also maintain strict military discipline and restrain other soldiers.
This is about to go on an expedition... The prince's supervision of the country really wants to restore the majesty of Taizu and Chengzu when the royal family led the army.
It has been exactly one hundred years since Emperor Zhengde's imperial conquest.
They believe this is no coincidence, but a century-old rise.
The Military Aircraft Department and the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Army will surely shine in the future.
Zhu Youxiao now plans to let the Military Aircraft Department handle the large-scale reorganization of the rebel troops and Beijing camps.
The next step is to go out to fight and perform missions.
Of course, the first target is not a difficult one like Nurhaci, but the Shandong Xu Hongru Bailian rebels who I remember will start trouble next year.
To deal with this level, ordinary battalions are enough, but the reorganized Military Aircraft Department and the Ming Dynasty Army can suppress the bandits and at the same time scare the big landowners and businessmen, and firmly take control of the Grand Canal.
This requires a suitable person.
The second minister of the Military Aircraft Department is still vacant. I am waiting for this person to become more familiar with Shandong and the Grand Canal.
The most suitable person is Wang Zaijin.
Historically, he and Sun Chengzong argued about whether to guard Shanhaiguan or build fortresses in Ningyuan and Jinzhou. It is difficult to judge who is right and who is wrong.
Perhaps it is true that the Guanningjin Defense Line established by Sun Chengzong was indeed able to hold on to and contain the enemy, but it also made the finances at that time worse, and also fostered a group of Liaodong warlords.
Wang Zaijin's suggestion will make Jizhen, Xuanda and Chahar Mongolia more dangerous, but Nurhaci is not Huang Taiji, maybe Jianbiqing is more effective?
Now, Zhu Youxiao wants to see how Wang Zaijin is doing.
