In the Southern Song Dynasty, I competed with Mongolia for the world

Chapter 186 Military training is all about money piles
"Quiet..." Chen Feng yelled loudly, and the surroundings slowly quieted down. The discipline was quite good. Sure enough, the money was in place, so it was easy to say anything.

Wei Zhong looked at each other.

In the past, his troops were not so obedient. Sure enough, His Majesty is the most powerful.

Chen Feng found someone with a loud voice to read.

There were quite a lot of people at the scene, and many wooden signs were erected around them, and they would also be pasted on them, so that everyone can see for themselves afterwards.

It's quieter now, and everyone is listening carefully.

Many people also subconsciously stood forward, all crowded around.

The emperor established the Jiangnan Capital Division and set up ten armies, one army for every 6000 people.

It probably means to reform.

The chief general of the Jiangnan Metropolitan Division is called the commander of the capital, and there are two other deputy commanders of the capital.

So these three main and deputy generals will lead the three armies.

Wei Zhong was the commander of the capital of Jiangnan, and also the commander of the first army of the capital.

Li Pingshan was the commander of the deputy capital of the Jiangnan Metropolitan Division and also the commander of the Second Army of the Metropolitan Division.

Guo Gang (promoted from the former Ma Junsi) was the deputy capital commander of the Jiangnan Metropolitan Division, and concurrently commanded the three armies of the Metropolitan Division.

In addition, Chen Feng, Quan Si, and Yu Jie were in command of the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Armies of the Capital Division respectively, and some people from the original Ma Jun Division were in command of the rest of the armies.

Yu Jie was shocked when he heard this, and his expression was excited.

In the past, his boss, Zhao Kui, only led 5000 troops from Qiangyong and Xiongbian armies. Now he was promoted first to deputy commander, and then to commander, directly leading an army of 6000. The emperor really trusted him.

Each army is divided into two generals (each with 3000 people), one general with six battalions (each with 500 people), one battalion with five capitals (each with 100 people), and one capital with ten troops (each with ten people)

The general will be the general, the deputy general, the battalion will be the commander, the deputy commander will be the head of the capital and the deputy head of the capital, and the five will be the commanders.

Each unit has deputies and officers, so the overall number will not be six thousand, it should be in the early six thousand.

The military system of the Southern Song Dynasty was complicated, and each army could be different, and each general of the same army could be different. Zhao and Rui have now completed a unified organization on the basis of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Set up an army with ten people, set up a capital with a hundred people, each has two deputy capital heads, and the deputy capital heads are also the head of the army. In wartime, they can also command two or three army teams to fight together.

The five capitals form one battalion, and the deputy commander is also the head of the capital.

The six camps are one general.

Why did it turn into six battalions in the near future?Because each general must have an artillery battalion.

The following are all steps.

Every general must have an artillery battalion.

Such a 6000-man army will have two generals and two artillery battalions, and the artillery will reach 1000, accounting for one-sixth.

Of course, the artillery of the Song Dynasty cannot be compared with that of later generations, and Zhao Yurui does not have so many artillery now.

According to his configuration, the artillery battalion has more than 500 people, will have 25 guns, [-] WISCO carts, and [-] horse mules.

Zhao Yurui's Artillery Battalion also works part-time as an engineer and transport soldier.

Transport and pull goods in peacetime, and shoot in wartime.

Each of the remaining infantry battalions is equipped with fifty WISCO carts and two hundred horse mules.

Thereby ensuring the basic transportation capacity of each battalion.

In ancient times, it was necessary to bring a large number of migrant workers to help in wars. Once the battle was defeated, the people would have no time to run, and heavy casualties would result.

Under the premise of not going on an expedition, Zhao and Rui tried not to use migrant workers, and ensured logistics and transportation by themselves.

Moreover, with a large number of WISCO vehicles, when encountering large-scale cavalry, they can immediately form a vehicle formation for self-protection.

Then it was said in the school grounds that everyone will be re-appointed, and all kinds of detainees, Yuhou, ten generals and other messy officials in the past will be cancelled, and everyone will be called according to their new positions.

Then again, all the original Wu San officials were cancelled.

There was an uproar among some middle and senior military officers around.

The Sanguan system was created in the Sui Dynasty and became popular in the Southern Song Dynasty.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, there were Wu Sanguan and Wen Sanguan.

The official system of the Song Dynasty should be the most complicated among the dynasties of all dynasties. Many scattered officials have no actual positions, and many officials with high positions do not actually manage affairs. Instead, it is the "dispatch" who really shines in their posts.Therefore, officials in the Song Dynasty were divided into several categories: loose officials, post officials, and dispatched officials.

In the Song Dynasty, the salary standard of officials was determined by the level of scattered officials, so this scattered official, you say it is not important, everyone wants it very much.

Now Zhao Yurui's restructuring is only implemented in Jiankang.

There are no scattered officials in the army, all there are only grades and dispatched real positions.

Those who are dispatched as corps leaders in the army are appointed as military officers of the ninth rank.

Wow, many people at the scene almost jumped up.

Because the rank of the military officer in the Southern Song Dynasty was very important, in the past, the corporal chief was enough to follow the ninth rank.

Now the corporal leader is directly designated as the ninth rank.

And every five years, you can be promoted, that is, you have been a corporal commander for five years, but you have not been promoted to dispatch, not promoted to the deputy capital, it's okay, you will be promoted to the ninth rank. (Because the monthly money comes according to your future rank)

It can be said that after the Southern Song Dynasty, the ten-member corps chiefs became officials.

This is very tempting to the low-level generals, and the corporal commanders on the scene are very excited.

In the future, he can also be called a military officer.

Vice Dutou is Congqi Rank, and Dutou is Zhengqi Rank.

Now the capital leaders are also excited, because before the seventh-rank military officer was a mid-level and senior official in the Southern Song Dynasty, he could still be a leader of the army.

The commander of the battalion is the sixth rank, and the deputy commander is the sixth rank.

The general is the fifth rank, and the deputy general is the fifth rank.

Control the three grades, and the deputy control the three grades.

The commander of the capital is the second rank, and the deputy commander of the capital is the second rank.

"The monthly salary is paid according to the grade, not according to the errand." The loud voice in the front is still shouting, and the bottom is quiet again, listening intently.

"From Jiupin monthly money to five guan, one mu of working land."

"The monthly money of the ninth grade is eight guan, and the working field is two acres."

"The monthly money of the seventh grade is 21 guan, and the working field is five mu——"

"Positive fifth grade, fifty guan coins per month, ten acres of working land, four spring silks, five winter silks—"

"Regular third grade, one hundred guan per month, thirty acres of working land, ten pieces of silk and cotton, and twenty stones of annual grain."

"Regular second grade, two hundred guan per month, [-] acres of working land, [-] pieces of silk, silk, cotton, and silk each, and [-] stones of annual grain."

Looking at it as a whole, the salaries of middle and lower-level officers have risen slightly, and the money of middle- and upper-level officers is similar to before, but with on-the-job land and food, it is equivalent to a big increase. After all, land is very expensive now.

Before the loud voice finished the report, someone suddenly knelt down on the scene: "Your Majesty is wise, thank you, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live, long live."

Immediately, everyone on the scene fell to their knees and shouted long live.

People are like this, they have to support whoever treats them well.

The new emperor came to the throne and immediately greatly improved the treatment and dignity of the military officers. Can everyone not support it?
But I'm still thinking about it.

The remuneration is high, but the requirements are also high. From the day after tomorrow, the generals of Jiangnan will gather for training, all above the head, and some soldiers and horses will train for three months. The next step is to drill the whole army. As for how to practice, of course we will know when the time comes.

If you can't bear the hardship, you can ask to quit and go home at any time.

There was a lot of laughter below, such a good treatment, I am a bird, it kind of makes me practice to death, someone yelled directly, and the surroundings echoed.

When they finally dispersed, everyone hurried to look at the announcements posted around them.

Due to the large number of people at the scene, some people may not be able to hear clearly, but the announcement is very clear.

The announcement also stated that no matter what rank, as long as you don't make any mistakes, you can be promoted every five years, and you can be promoted in advance if you make meritorious service on the battlefield.

As the grade is promoted, the treatment will naturally go up.

Then he said that to be a soldier is to retire after ten years, or at the age of 35, and for officers below the head to be 45 years old.

All head above is 55 years old.

When he was in the army, he didn’t have to pay tax for five mu or less, [-]% for more than five mu, and [-]% for the third rank and more than [-] mu to the court.

When retiring from the military, each officer takes a sum of ten times his monthly salary, retires from active service, and hands it over to the imperial court while on the job.

For example, for an ordinary corporal leader, before retiring, he was promoted to the ninth rank, and the monthly money was eight guan, and he could retire with [-] guan at once, which is quite good.

When I return to my hometown, I can buy a few acres of land.

In addition, regardless of whether it is a soldier or an officer, future generations who want to continue serving as soldiers can inherit it in addition to being recruited by the court.

But you must pass the test.

Soldiers come in as soldiers, and the descendants of officers come in, starting from the corps commander. No matter how senior you are, and there is a one-year probationary period, if you fail the assessment, you will leave the barracks.

Some people said that the senior military officer might be unhappy. I helped the emperor through life and death, and my son came in, so I have to start as a corps leader?
Don't worry about this, the father is the commander, and the son is going up like a rocket.

What's more, the Southern Song Dynasty did not have the hereditary system of officers like the Ming Dynasty. Your son Xia Zhen had to start from the grassroots when he entered the barracks, so this is quite normal in the Southern Song Dynasty, and it will not be opposed by high-level military officers and military officers.

The only thing that makes people conflict now is that according to the announcement, after the restructuring, all Wu San officials on Jiangnan East Road and Jiangnan West Road will no longer be recognized, and they will no longer have salaries.

Of course, there are quite a few people in this group. In the Song Dynasty, Fenghe sold a large number of civil and military officials, all of whom had their salaries and did not have to work.

This is the case with Zhao and Rui who are acquainted with each other like Zhong You and Guo Chengzhang in the past.

These people were bought with money. If they were to make up for the elders in the family, now the imperial court cancels all the treatment of these people. Starting from the entire Jiangnan capital, their military officials are only a few, and the court is ready to suppress it by force at any time.

Although Yu Jie was promoted to the command, he was soon assembled with a group of middle and senior military officers for training.

Only then did he discover that the emperor's team training was very strict and hard, and many older people couldn't bear it.

Fortunately, the emperor also took care of them. A group of people over the age of 45 like Wei Zhong did not train much. The main purpose was to let them understand the system and the importance of discipline.

While the Jiangnan capital was rectifying, the Jiankang navy was also changed into the Jiangnan navy, and both armies are stepping up training.

First, Zhao Yurui's own soldiers and horses set up a training team in the local area to take charge of the training.

It takes one year to train all the officers, especially at the rank of corporal, and then spread to the whole army.

Two years later, the spirit of nearly [-] soldiers and horses in the entire south of the Yangtze River is completely different.

At the same time, in the past two years, a steady stream of WISCO vehicles, horse mules, and artillery have also begun to enter the barracks, and the artillerymen basically started training in the second year.

In the first few years, the imperial court basically provided food, and Zhao Yurui contributed money privately, and the 3000 million yuan of private money he finally earned flowed out like running water.

Zhao and Rui's wooing and training were all accumulated with money.

At this moment, he has only one feeling, that is, the money is not enough.

The Southern Song Dynasty, known as the richest, could not stand up to his military training like this.

Then he has to find a way to make more money.
