The Sacred Ding
Chapter 140
Seeing this scene, Wu Meng and Zhou Jun couldn''t help looking at Chen Hai. The 2000 old soldiers taken over by the seventh capital of the new army can be said to be a sick tiger with its teeth pulled out. They are dying and will fall on the way at any time. On the basis of these old soldiers, how can it be possible to compile and train an elite division that will not be destroyed in a hundred battles?
Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong had to enter Xiyuan two months earlier than Chen hai to take over the two thousand old soldiers.
Among the two thousand old soldiers, there are more than 30 school captains of Huben who set up a spiritual realm to maintain training and other camp affairs. However, these people are veterans in their 60s and 70s. In addition to having very rich combat experience, their strength of Qi and blood is not even as good as the young martial arts cultivation in the middle and later stages of tongxuan realm.
But from the eyes of these veterans, Chen Hai can clearly feel their distrust and rejection.
This is a world where the strong are respected. According to the old practice, the strong in the middle and late Ming Qiao territory should be selected from the eight ethnic groups in Jingjun to master the compilation and training of this new army. Although Chen Hai is the first choice in the northwest region and has a great chance to become a Taoist pill in the future, it may also be 50 or 60 years later. At this time, Chen Hai has very shallow qualifications, so naturally he has not been able to subdue these veterans The prestige and dignity of the old soldiers.
In the view of these veterans, Zhao Rong, who has made achievements in the early stage of Ming Qiao territory and has served in the Huben army for six years, is more qualified to serve as the seventh capital''s riding Lieutenant than Chen Hai, a tender melon.
Before Chen Hai took office, Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong were mainly responsible for the construction of the camp city and the maintenance of the old soldiers. Now they welcomed Chen Hai into the camp city and sent the list of soldiers. The task of compiling and training the seventh capital of the new army fell on Chen Hai''s shoulders.
Walking into the big tent, Chen Hai looked through the list of generals reorganized by Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong. The situation was more optimistic than what he had seen with his own eyes. However, no matter what the mysterious figures behind Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong and Chen XuanZhen were thinking, Chen Hai methodically performed his duties as the chief officer of the seventh training according to the authority granted by the Taiwei house.
In addition to being over 60 years old and injured, there are less than 600 elite old soldiers who can still be used. The follow-up Taiwei house will recruit 8000 new soldiers from all over the country and send them to the new army in the seventh capital of Xiyuan, with a full staff of 10000.
Chen Hai incorporated more than 1400 old, weak, sick and disabled and more than 30 old Huben captains into the baggage camp, and did not give these veteran generals a chance to elbow him; The remaining 600 elite old soldiers were assigned to newly elected military officers such as ran Hu, Du Yong, Zhou Jun, Li Yulin and Wu Jinglin to act as Hu Wei, flag officer and messenger
Before the recruitment of 8000 new soldiers, Chen Hai had to put up the shelf of the seventh capital first. Zhao Rong and Tu Ziji, together with other military officers, were first familiar with the code of conduct issued by the Taiwei residence, while Chen Hai, together with Ding Shuang and others, first improved the compilation and training of the baggage camp.
The logistics battalion is responsible for logistics and is a necessary organizational system for every new army.
The code of conduct issued by Taiwei''s house clearly stipulates the construction of baggage camps from the aspects of camp city construction, material transfer, army armor repair, injury maintenance, material storage and so on.
According to the old practice, the baggage camp only needs 300 or 500 people to ensure the normal operation of tens of thousands of troops and horses; After all, although the chief General of the Xiyuan military general''s office is empty and no one takes office, the long history, master book and other subordinate officials are fully equipped, and another set of perfect logistics system is in operation.
At this time, Chen Hai stuffed more than 1400 old, weak, disabled and more than 30 old generals into the baggage camp, which can be said to be the largest baggage camp in the new army of Zhudu.
Chen Hai kicked more than 30 veteran generals to the baggage camp for fear that he would restrict his training of the new army. Although other old, weak, sick and disabled people have little combat power, they have rich experience in armor repair, war equipment repair and even camp city construction.
Before the new soldiers arrived, Chen Hai, on the one hand, expanded the site for army Armor Repair and war equipment repair in the camp city. On the other hand, he organized people to continue to increase the construction of the camp city. Soon, a new stone dam was built along the Qiuye River in the South of fujiaoling mountain, enclosing the grassland surrounded by thousands of Mu near the Qiuye River in fujiaoling.
Chen Hai not only arranges people to throw the young animals secretly caught from the mountain and Ze of Xiyuan into this grassland and circle them for feeding, but also cultivates some fields and sows herbs and cereals
The Xiyuan Army General Office has a logistics system, and the Taiwei office will also provide sufficient food and salaries for the new army. Compiling and training the new army has no responsibility to garrison the fields, but Chen Hai always has to find enough things for them to do with such a huge baggage camp.
Chen Hai disdains to learn from other generals and privately withholds food and salaries to fill his own pockets. However, he has so many people to support in Yanjing, and he can''t completely keep his hands clean. He needs to wipe some oil to make up for the shortage of the pharmacist''s garden.
These old soldiers of the baggage camp have been dealing with halberds, spears and armours for half their life. It can be said that many people are qualified craftsmen. The armour shop secretly sent batches of broken armour, and dispatched three craftsmen to repair and improve them with the personnel of the baggage camp, and then smuggled them to the armour shop for sale. This is the biggest oil and water Chen Hai thought of at present.
Chen Hai directly arranged Zhou Jingyuan and Ding Shuang to take charge of the warehouse in Yingcheng. Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong also opened and closed their eyes.
They didn''t think there would be much oil and water in it, but they didn''t know that the armour shop in Tieqiao lane, Xicheng, where the pharmacist garden could supply excellent armour every month suddenly increased by more than three times.
A considerable number of these old soldiers have been in the army for more than 30 years and can be demobilized and returned to their hometown. However, the clans and clans they used to depend on have been suppressed by Prince Ying Dan over the years. Many of them have broken their families and died. These old soldiers have no place to return to, especially those who are injured and sick, can only stay in the army to eat food and pay.
Chen Hai withdrew some injuries from the camp in batches and arranged to rest in Taohuawu.
Chen Hai''s arrangement is also to prepare training for the new army and reduce the additional burden on the baggage camp. Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong won''t say anything, but he doesn''t know that these injuries and injuries are qualified craftsmen valued by Chen Hai.
These injuries can make up for the shortage of manpower in Taohua stronghold.
It was not until the end of April that the Taiwei mansion successively sent new soldiers from the lower prefectures and counties, but Chen Hai began to be silly when he saw a batch of new soldiers sent to fujiaoling.
I don''t know if the mysterious people behind the scenes deliberately arranged that the new soldiers selected to the seventh capital were heavy prisoners sentenced to exile or demoted to slavery in the prefectures and counties near Gyeonggi.
The situation in Yanjing is in a stalemate. The refugees raided and looted places year after year. Even in the important places of Beijing, a large number of bandits, bandits and bandits have emerged in recent years. The prison cells in the prefecture and county have long been overcrowded.
Zhufu and counties sent these heavy prisoners to the Xinjun of Xiyuan, but the following counties saved trouble at once. However, these heavy prisoners who were born as big thieves, wandering bandits, bandits or ranger swordsmen were mainly concentrated in the seventh capital, and Chen Haizhen was three times bigger.
Chen Hai had experience in compiling and training Kou slave soldiers in Yulong mountain, but at that time, he compiled and trained only 60 Kou slave soldiers, but now he has stuffed him with more than 8000 rebellious bandits and wandering bandits.
The scale difference is so huge that it''s two different things at all. Besides, there are few military officers who Chen Hai can really trust.
Once the recruitment of new soldiers by the Taiwei mansion was started, the efficiency was still very high. Less than ten days ago, 8000 new soldiers from the seventh capital were sent over, and the organizational system of the Ninth World War battalion was gradually improved in the camp city of fujiaoling.
In each of the nine battle battalions, there are three chief and deputy control officers, with the rank of military officer of Huben, and 30 military officers of Baiwu, with Huben''s attendants serving as military officers. However, except for the 60 or 70 old soldiers who serve as bodyguards and flag officers, all the others are rebellious new soldiers of bandits and slaves.
It''s easy to determine the organizational system of the nine battalions, but it can''t be controlled. There are people everywhere in the camp city.
In the first few days, bloody fights broke out frequently among the Konu recruits. It was still a small matter, and even the military attache who controlled his soldiers severely was secretly put down with a stick.
Although the vast majority of the military officers are the elite selected from the disciples of the spirit realm in the counties, they are still too young. They have devoted themselves to hard cultivation in the sect or clan for more than ten years, but they have little understanding of the dangers of the world. In the face of these sinister and obscene tricks of the bandits and slaves, they can''t be prevented.
Even the meals of Chen Hai, Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong were drugged. In the end, no one found out who it was; In order to prevent excessive disturbance, Chen Haidu had to order the suspension of the investigation.
Standing on the top of the fujiaoling mountain where the camp city is located, Chen Hai looks at the vast water surface of the Qiuye river for more than ten miles. He doesn''t know what confidence the mysterious man behind the scenes has. He believes that he will be able to train such a new army composed of Kou nu into an elite division.
"Can Chen Duwei have a plan for training the new army?"
Chen Hai turned around and saw Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong coming from the stone steps in the north. He was in a trance. At this time, he was not used to being called "Chen Duwei". He used to be in Hexi. He always thought he needed to practice until the middle of the Ming Dynasty before he had the opportunity to serve as a middle-level general such as riding Duwei, riding Duwei, suwu general and duwu general
The Taiwei mansion requires the new army to be able to use it within half a year, but everything is compiled and trained according to the law given in the code of conduct issued by the Taiwei mansion. These 8000 bandits have become ghosts, and they can''t become an elite division that can''t be destroyed in a hundred battles within half a year.
Chen Hai can see that Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong are somewhat discouraged when they see a mess in the camp city these two days.
It''s true that a strong man is respected in the world, but there are too many bold and reckless zealots among the 8000 Kou slave soldiers, and too many cunning people with gloomy intentions and ruthless means. How can young military attach é from aristocratic family make these people obey their orders and make these zealots yield from body to heart by relying on their high cultivation level?
If these people would easily obey the world order respected by the strong, they would not become bandits and plunder the countryside.
Chen Hai took a long breath. He didn''t care what the mysterious person behind the scenes planned, but since he was the chief officer of the seventh capital of the new army, he couldn''t lose his face. He always had to show his wrist, so that he could occupy a position in the future hegemony situation.
"If I have a plan for training, there will be no impeachment from the Taiwei house against the code of conduct?" Chen Hai asked.
He wanted to find another way, but he, the seventh chief training officer, was really humble and had very limited power. If he wanted to make any unusual move, he might be impeached by others and dismissed the next day; Besides, the following military officers may not obey him.
Zhao Rong and Tu Ziji looked at each other and said, "if Chen Shuai has a plan, no matter what means we use, Ziji and I will spare no effort to assist Chen Shuai to make up these 8000 mobs into a hundred battles!"
Hearing Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong''s promise, Chen Hai also breathed a sigh and said, "well, give me three or five days to write a camp and Practice Manual. I hope Zi Ji and General Zhao can support me at that time."
