Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 360 Six Armies in the City
But this matter, the foster father is actually very embarrassing.

He said that Dadu Licheng has six armed forces.

The largest is the "Walls of the Empire" Chapter, so named because it is directly responsible for the defense of the city walls of the Metropolis.

Unlike in ancient times, now they are actually the battle group corresponding to the military region where Dadu is located, responsible for the defense of several small towns and fortresses in Dadu and surrounding areas.In addition to the main job of guarding the city wall, they often cross the sea to Asia Minor to fight against the Turkmen.The battle group adopts a rotation system, some people will go out to fight, and the rest will be responsible for defending the city.On weekdays, all the city gates in Dadu, except for the few ceremonial gates, are managed by them.

The second is the "teaching group" group. On the one hand, they have both military training and experimental nature, and on the other hand, they are also the main force here.Several training grounds in the city, including the one that Guo Kang took Cao Jian to before, are under their jurisdiction.

However, there are not many soldiers in the teaching group in the city, only these small teams in the training ground.The main forces and camps are all in the outskirts of the city—that is, the place where Guo Kang took little Rangna to watch the artillery demonstration.When there is nothing to do, they will not enter the city on a large scale.

The ones who are actually stationed in the city are the "Night Watchmen" battle group. They are responsible for maintaining the defense inside the city, so they are also the ones who show up the most.Basically, after every festival, they are the ones who violently fight with alcoholic citizens and try to maintain order, so they are famous in various senses...

However, they are not ordinary "urban management", but a serious field force. Like the wall of the empire and the teaching group, the night watchmen also follow the system of rounds in order to maintain their combat effectiveness.However, due to the terrain of the Purple Horde Khanate, this round of battle is not very difficult.

For a mission like this one, the most suitable thing is to send out the teaching group or the night watchmen.Because the recruits who had problems nominally belonged to the teaching regiment, it was more appropriate for them to take care of themselves.When there is a major gang case in the city that requires the deployment of troops, it is usually the night watchmen who are dispatched to arrest people.

However, these two units do not belong to the local military region, but are directly under the jurisdiction of Sai Khan.Moreover, the foster father is in charge of dispatching the armies going on expedition, including the allocation of strategic tasks and supply maintenance, etc. The tasks are actually quite heavy.These people left behind, like the defensive brigades in various places, are not under his control.

It is not impossible to force him to appear on the stage and use his prestige and status to persuade others to act, but this has great side effects.Because even for places like the Purple Horde Khanate, where the system is very rough, it is very troublesome to move troops beyond the authority in the capital, and it is very easy to cause criticism and accusations.Several other close princes may still give some face, but the bureaucracy of the Khan court, which is becoming more and more powerful, will definitely attack.

If it is really a matter of life and death, and there is no time to delay, he can do it once.But this time it's just to catch a few thieves, it's not worth it at all, people will only think that they have ulterior motives.At that time, not only Guo will be embarrassed, but friends will also be caught in the dilemma of being wronged and not helping, so we shouldn't embarrass everyone like this.

As for the other branches, the first is the imperial army "Qi Xue" of the Khan House.They were small in number, but included a large number of court service personnel.These are not actually professional soldiers. Their main responsibilities are to manage the properties directly under the Khan court and maintain the operation of the palace. Their work includes accounting, business negotiations, cooking, sweeping and even singing and dancing. In short, they have no combat effectiveness.

The real part of the army is the Varyag Guard in the Imperial Army.They are responsible for the protection of the Great Palace, as well as other important places.

Dadu is different from the capital of the Central Plains Dynasty. There is no clear palace city and supporting defense facilities. The large and small palace buildings built by Barcelius in the past dynasties are all over the city, and they are not connected to each other.Therefore, their guard range is also relatively loose.

In addition, several main gates on the city wall were also in charge of Varyag.The reason is that this place is spacious and convenient, suitable for holding important ceremonies, like every triumphant ceremony, the sweat room will sponsor, and these gates will also be specially decorated for the celebration.

However, there is actually a deeper consideration here.Since the Li Tiance incident happened just after entering the city, for a long time, the Purple Horde Khanate did not think about how to defend Dadu when someone attacked it, or how to prevent and suppress it when there was a possibility of rebellion, but how to run away in the event of a rebellion. go out.The gates that these forbidden soldiers personally handle are not actually to prevent someone from attacking from a vital position, but just in case, and it is convenient for everyone to escape at critical times...

Later, as the rule became more and more stable, the mentality of the Khan court also changed.By the time of the adoptive father, facing the enemy's attack, few people thought about throwing away the city and running away.He himself also became famous in the first battle because he presided over the defense of the city.

However, although this design has never been used, the related arrangement has been preserved and has been used to this day.

In addition, there are two relatively small armed groups.One is the marine combat force of the navy, because in these years naval battles are indispensable, in addition to armed sailors, special soldiers must also be carried on the warships.Everyone usually has to conduct various trainings, and in addition to tactics at sea, they also have to consider how to fight when they land.

Most of them are port cities, so next to the military port, there are their training grounds and camps.

Sometimes, in addition to themselves, other troops will send people to train.This is also a little trick summarized by the Purple Horde before.

At the beginning, Toto Mematinikus led the army across the Black Sea, preparing to attack the Georgian enemy by surprise. As a result, the grassland soldiers under him were severely seasick. Many of them were dizzy and vomited. Come back.

On balance, he could only leave more than half of the people at the port to watch the house, and he led a small number of people to attack everywhere with the banner of the whole army.Fortunately, Uncle Timur had frightened the locals into stupidity, and all the towns and cities turned down when they saw the army, so they didn't reveal their secrets.

Since then, the Khan Court has realized that even if most of the wars are land battles, taking into account the terrain of the Purple Horde Khanate, transporting troops by sea is also indispensable.Therefore, everyone has to adapt to this situation in advance to avoid problems from time to time.Each military region will choose the nearest port and send soldiers to take turns to practice.Even the Mongols under Beiya Wanhu had to learn how to row, and this place was no exception.

And the last one is the part of the church that Guo Kang tried to use before.

Therefore, the adoptive father also has no way to directly help these few branches.Because of this matter, it is not worth running out of the city and looking for a formal approval document from Da Khan.He suggested that Guo Kang should wait two days before talking.
