Daming iron-blooded Chief Assistant

Chapter 153 Expansion of the Army
After becoming the governor of the three sides, Zhang Zongxian carried out economic expansion on the one hand to control the economy of the three sides of Shaanxi.

On the other hand, they continued to expand the army, under the pretense of recruiting a standard guard battalion, they recruited teenagers from the other two border towns to join the army.The school's entrance examination is first conducted for the recruited teenagers, and those who pass the exam are directly recruited into the school.

The remaining teenagers are arranged to enter the new military camp. The original juvenile camp continued to recruit children under the age of 12 who failed to enter the school.

In addition to the one cavalry brigade of the governor's standard battalion on the surface, the five cavalry brigades and four infantry brigades outside the side wall were expanded to ten cavalry brigades and ten garrison infantry brigades in the name of the new thousand stations.

In the future, the cavalry brigade will be used as a field force, and it is in a state of high combat readiness on weekdays, and it is required to be fully staffed.

The garrison infantry brigade is one of the five infantry brigades that is fully equipped and fully staffed, and is responsible for the daily defense of important places.The five infantry brigades will also be equipped with an additional ten-jin bronze cannon artillery regiment.

The remaining five brigades are used as shelf brigades. They only have the strength of one regiment on a daily basis. They can only be fully staffed after emergency mobilization. The shelf brigades are also responsible for the organization. .

These young and strong are not only used as reserve soldiers to supplement the shelf brigade, but also as a supplement to the main force after suffering heavy losses.

The people in the settlements outside the side wall can hold firecrackers, which can not only cultivate the martial spirit of the people, but also be used to deal with wolves. After all, the reclaimed land is grassland.

With the promotion of Zhang Zongxian to the governor of the three sides, the expansion of the territory and the expansion of the army made the small group that had gathered around Zhang Zongxian no longer able to adapt to the violent expansion in the future, and it was urgent to divide the powers.

The first is the internal reform of the legislative faction, and various departments will be established to correspond to future governance.

The first to be established was the Ministry of War, with Zhang Zongxian as the Minister of War, Liang Chen and Bo Ren as the Deputy Ministers, and other disciples who held positions above the head of the regiment as members.

Ke Liangchen, the chief of staff, was established to concurrently serve as the chief of staff, responsible for all future military mobilizations, and the formulation and execution of military action plans issued by the minister.

The training department was established to be responsible for the training of officers, the recruitment and training of soldiers, and the training of reserve soldiers.

The Procurement Section was established to be responsible for the formulation of military procurement for the Legislative Army.

The Gendarmerie Section was established to be responsible for the enforcement of relevant military laws.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs was established, with Zhang Zongxian as the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the remaining five personal disciples as the deputy ministers.

The Administrative Section was established with Liang Chengyuan as the section chief. He was responsible for assisting in the management of the newly built cities outside the border wall, organizing immigrants to establish settlements, and arranging college disciples to assist the village chiefs elected by the people in the settlements to manage the settlements.

The Transportation and Water Conservancy Section was established, with Hu Zhongxing as the section chief, responsible for the planning and construction of roads and railways in the entire trilateral area, and responsible for the construction and maintenance of water conservancy facilities outside the side walls.

The Agriculture Department was established with Wang Guofu as the head of the department, responsible for the production of agriculture and animal husbandry outside the border wall, and the promotion and development of new crops.

The workshop section was established with Liu Jiansheng as the section chief, responsible for the management and development of the workshop outside the border wall.

The R&D department was established with Zhou Xiaoning as the section chief, responsible for the R&D work.

At the same time, a brand new college that can accommodate ten thousand people will be built in Shuofang City.The college in Jiazhou will be changed to a medical school and will be managed by Miss Susu's hospital.

Zhang Zongxian then sorted out his own industry
Su'e's management of the bank and grain store of the Taiping will continue to be handed over, but the middle management will be replaced by school disciples.Except for some industries that need to be kept secret, such as glass and soap, the management of the college is responsible.

For example, mining also quit directly, giving up this part of the profit. After serving as the governor of the three sides, there is no unsightly thing to do with the Taiping, so there is no need for the Escort. The Escort will be changed into a transportation company and handed over to the private sector Established transport association management.

The profits of the salt industry and the horse market are too great to give up. They are all managed by Ding Bo and Hu Biao, with the assistance of the disciples of the school.

For example, cement manufacturing is sold directly to Wang's construction, and Wang's construction takes over. Wang's construction only needs to pay a patent fee every year.

The insurance industry established the Ping An account, which continued to be handed over to Xiaoxue, with the assistance of the disciples of the academy, to continue to expand the scope of insurance business.

Zhang Zongxian plans to complete the expansion of the industry and the expansion of the army within half a year.

During this period, Zhang Zongxian will maintain the status quo of the three sides in Shaanxi, and after these arrangements are completed, he will attack other military towns.

After entering March, Zhang Zongxian used the semicolon of the Taiping Hao to encourage people from all over the country to reclaim land outside the side wall.

They also used Yansui Town, which was already under full control, to arrange all the landless military households in the 36 fortresses below Yansui Town to the newly occupied land outside the side wall.

And in the name of the governors of the three sides, land deeds were issued to the people reclaimed outside the side walls, stipulating that as long as they pay taxes for ten years, they can completely own the reclaimed land.

After hearing about this incident, the landless people from Shaanxi and Shanxi flocked here, and some brothers from the family also went outside the side wall to reclaim the land.

The land in Hetao is not fertile, and it is convenient to irrigate. Coupled with the cattle and farm tools loaned to the people by the Taiping, it is easy to reclaim the land, and there are school disciples who guide the people to grow corn and potatoes.

Let the whole land of Hetao is a thriving scene.

In order to allow the people to reclaim the land with peace of mind, Zhang Zongxian ordered the cavalry brigade to attack everywhere and attack the tribes on the grassland, and all those who did not surrender would be wiped out.By the way, grab some more cattle and sheep to deal with the shortage of food.

Boren also concentrated his forces, took down the Dalat Wanhu Department, and recovered Jiuyuan County, the hometown of the Han family.Completely drove the Tartars out of the Monan Grassland.

Liangchen also launched an attack on the remaining Tumote Wanhu tribe in Guihua City, driving the Tartars out of the grassland west of Datong Town.

The raid on the Tartars also caused the Legislative Army to capture a large number of young and strong Tartars. The overall number of prisoners has exceeded 6. With these prisoners, the construction process of the Mara Railway was greatly accelerated.

In addition, there is a yard of plains on the grassland, and the difficulty of construction is also low. Adopting the mode of multi-stage construction, the railway from Dongshengwei to Guihua City is expected to be open to traffic in three months.

The stations along the way have arranged for immigrants to reclaim the land, and the reclamation outside the side wall will rely on the railway.

The newly established Traffic and Water Conservancy Division has begun to measure the distance from Dongshengwei to Shuofang City, from Shuofang City to Jiuyuan City, from Jiuyuan City to Guihua City, from Shuofang City to Yulin, from Yulin to Yan'an, from Yan'an to Xi'an, from Xi'an to Lanzhou, and from Lanzhou to Lanzhou. To Guyuan, Guyuan to Yan'an railway line.

The construction of the horse-drawn railway within the side wall will be handed over to the Railway Association to issue segment stocks to raise funds, and the construction work will also be handed over to the Railway Association.Zhao's staff member is named in the railway association and is responsible for communicating with various places on land acquisition.

The railways outside the side wall were built by the Transportation and Water Conservancy Division, and the Taiping provided loans. It is estimated that it will take three years to complete these railways.
