Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 390: Change the military system

At the same time, Jia Rong also felt the serious lack of talents in the Xiliang army. Although Zhang Xiu was the leader of the lone wolf and handled intelligence affairs, he was always a military general and lacked the careful thought of a literati. Many things needed Jia Xu to make decisions. Looking at the overall situation, there are only a few generals in the army who can stand alone. Many generals rely on their own martial arts, and there are only a handful of generals who can read and write.

And Jia Xu is a military adviser, he has to worry about the affairs of the army, it is impossible to cover everything, there is also God's punishment, and Jia Xu is also responsible. While worrying about Jia Xu, he is also worried about the fate of the Xiliang Army. Jia Xu has information If there is a disagreement in the investigation of military affairs and officials, the Xiliang army will be in danger.

"How is the military division?" Jia Rong asked.

"My lord, it is said that the military division handles military affairs on the bed, and has punished several generals in the army for their ineffectiveness. Now everyone in the army is in danger."

Jia Rong said with a smile: "It's good to let these generals be vigilant, don't act like I'm number one in the world all day long."

"Let Zhang Zhao come to see me." Jia Rong said.

"promise!"

About a quarter of an hour, Zhang Zhao rushed to Jia Rong's bed under the leadership of Zhang Xiu.

"Meet the general!" Zhang Zhao bowed and bowed.

Looking at the respectful Zhang Zhao, Jia Rong wanted to get up, but the pain from his back forced him to stop, "Master Zhang, please get up quickly."

Zhang Xiu left the room under Jia Rong's hint, and guarded the door.

"Master Zhang, how are the government affairs in Liangzhou recently?"

"General Qi, in the ten counties of Liangzhou, there are many vacancies for officials in various places. Officials in many counties have also been arrested by heaven, and the humble positions are beyond their capabilities. Now in many places, the positions of county magistrates are still vacant."

Jia Rong felt dissatisfied with Zhang Zhao's words, and said with a smile: "Master Zhang, officials are not clean and self-sufficient, how can we ensure that they govern the country well and don't exploit the common people?"

"General, I don't know if I should say something or not." Zhang Zhao summoned up his courage and said.

Jia Rong frowned slightly, "Master Zhang, just say it clearly."

"There are many reasons why officials embezzle property. Blindly killing can only make the officials under the rule tremble with fear. Liangzhou is already poor. Unless it is a poor family, no official is willing to go. If things go on like this, the Xiliang army is in danger. carry on."

"Bold Zhang Zhao, how dare you speak alarmist words." Jia Rong scolded.

Zhang Zhao fell to his knees with a thud, cold sweat broke out on his back, people in high positions were moody, Zhang Zhao also understood that these words were a bit presumptuous.

Zhang Xiu who was outside the door heard the movement in the house and broke into the house.

Jia Rong waved his hand to signal Zhang Xiu to leave, "Master Zhang, in your opinion, what should we do?" He also knew the situation in Liangzhou, but he just felt uncomfortable when he heard the disobedient words rashly.

Seeing that Jia Rong's tone was slightly slower, Zhang Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. Jia Rong was no longer the former prefect of Jincheng, but a great general, in charge of the life and death of nearly a million people, and his anger would cause thousands of miles of blood.

"Just like the general's recruiting hall, there is no sticking to one style of employment. As long as you have talents, even if there is corruption, so long as the people under your rule can live a stable life, it doesn't matter if you are a little bit greedy. The Xiliang Army has limited officials. Although many talents are taking up official positions in various places, they cannot solve the shortage of upper-level officials in a short time."

"Master Zhang, what you said is reasonable, I misconsidered." Jia Rong sighed.

Zhang Zhao was startled, how difficult it is for a person in high position like Jia Rong to admit his mistakes frankly, thinking that Jia Rong was punished with a cane in front of the three armies yesterday, his surprise was fleeting.

"General, the existence of Heaven's Punishment has indeed made the officials under Liangzhou's rule conscientious, and dare not exploit the common people." It is undeniable that the contribution of Heaven's Punishment to the Xiliang Army is huge.

Jia Rong said: "Master Zhang, I want to appoint you to be in charge of Heaven's Punishment, and at the same time be responsible for dispatching officials, what do you think?"

For a moment, countless thoughts flashed through Zhang Zhao's mind. Jia Xu was in charge of Heaven's Punishment before, but Zhang Li was responsible for most of the officials' scheduling. What is the meaning of Jia Rong's move? Could it be to divide Jia Xu's power.

"Dare not to follow orders!" Zhang Zhao bowed and bowed, apart from other things, Zhang Zhao still admired Jia Rong's great talent.

"Zibu, don't you still call me lord?" Jia Rong laughed.

Zhang Zhao fell to the ground and bowed: "Humble Zhang Zhao, pay homage to the lord!" This bow, Zhang Zhao is the core figure of the Xiliang Army, and he has entered the core of the Xiliang Army. When Jia Rong entrusted him with the job, Zhang Zhao felt that everything was worth it, and he died for his confidant.

"Please get up quickly! Please get up quickly!" Jia Rong struggled to get up and help Zhang Zhao but to no avail.

No one can erase Zhang Zhao's achievements in the Xiliang Army. In addition, he is safe, serious, considers things comprehensively, and is upright.

"You go to Wenhe to hand over the work as soon as possible," Jia Rong said.

When Jia Xu learned of Jia Rong's appointment, he let out a long sigh, and entrusted Zhang Zhao with all the affairs of the Heaven's Punishment, and told Zhang Zhao his experience after taking charge of the Heaven's Punishment, helping Zhang Zhao enter the role as soon as possible.

Zhang Zhao was also in awe of this Xiliang Army's military adviser, and his words and deeds were respectful.

The departure of Emperor Han did not cause much disturbance among ordinary people. The people at the bottom only knew that there was Xiliang Army and General Jia Rong in the city, but they did not know about the royal family in the palace.

Jia Rong didn't make things difficult for the officials to leave Chang'an, but they couldn't take away their assets, and leaving them to go back to Yanzhou to spend money was already a waste of benevolence.

There are also some officials who are unwilling to leave and prefer to live in the safe and stable city of Chang'an. Here, they don't have to worry about food and clothing. As long as the children in the family study hard and pass the selection of the general's mansion, they can also become officials of one side, officials under Jia Rong's rule Not only poor scholars, but also people from aristocratic families.

Most of the aristocratic families in the city have already figured out Jia Rong's temperament. As long as you conduct business honestly in the city, no one will embarrass you. The development of Chang'an City is vivid in our memory. Many officials cooperated with the Xiliang Army and gained benefits. Not a few.

The departure of most of the officials left the west of the city quite empty.

The life of the officials under the Xiliang Army was still quite poor. For this reason, Jia Xu mentioned to Jia Rong many times that the houses in the west of the city happened to be vacant, and the officials in the general’s mansion and the generals in the army could be allocated to one place. Nice house, the west of the city has become a gathering place for Xiliang army officials.

Jia Rong's physique is still very good. After a month, his injuries are almost healed. Apart from visiting Weifu Cai Yan, Jia Rong's daily task is to participate in the training of soldiers in the barracks.

Feeling that the system of the Xiliang Army was too complicated, Jia Rong decided to improve the system of the Xiliang Army.

Six soldiers form a squad, five squads and one platoon, five platoons and one company, five companies and one battalion, three battalions and one regiment, the regiment leader has 300 guards, three regiments and one division, the division is currently the largest combat unit of the Xiliang Army , Ancient times are not like modern times, the speed of information dissemination is slow, and a combat unit with too many people can easily lead to orders being blocked.

When the military system reform document was handed over to Jia Xu, Jia Rong could clearly see the surprise on Jia Xu's face.

Jia Xu doesn't think like Jia Rong. The military system of the Great Han has been passed down for hundreds of years. Once it changes, the soldiers in the army will definitely be very uncomfortable. I have to say that Jia Rong has a very clear plan for the army. The regiment is the largest combat unit. The corps leader is changed to the squad leader, and the hundred-member general will be the company commander.

"My lord, the reform of the military system is certainly good, but I am afraid that the soldiers in the army will not adapt to it. The corporal leader is the squad leader, but the position of the commander is replaced. It is easy to make it difficult to effectively implement orders on the battlefield. The generals in the army will definitely be cut down in large numbers, how to stabilize these people?"

Jia Rong wanted to change the military system on a whim, but he didn't think of so many problems, "Wenhe, didn't I come to discuss with you? I want to send a scribe to each company as an instructor. The company commander discusses combat affairs, and is responsible for the soldiers' life and ideological issues on weekdays, so as to strengthen the control of the army."

"My lord, it is absolutely impossible. The general's foreign military orders will not be accepted. There are scribes in the army, which will inevitably affect the general's order. The opportunity to fight is fleeting."

Jia Rong said with a smile: "Wen He is too worried. The role of scribes is not to restrain the military power of the generals, but to understand the soldiers' thoughts and make them more loyal to the Xiliang Army. When fighting, they also play a role in planning and will not affect the generals. The general's battle decisions."

Jia Xu nodded, just now he was worrying too much, Jia Rong started in the infancy, relying on the army to have the current power, how can he not know the harm of being restrained when the army is fighting.

However, it is somewhat difficult for the current Xiliang Army to have a scribe in a company.

"Not only that, each company has its own separate cooking team, which is responsible for the cooking of the company, and the chief of staff is responsible for supplies." Jia Rong added.

Jia Xu glanced at Jia Rong in surprise, not understanding why he had such a whimsical idea, the obscure "squad" combat unit, and the chief of the cooking team, which had never appeared in the previous Han army passed.

There are about three thousand soldiers in each regiment plus the medical soldiers of the cooking squad and the general affairs department.

But thinking of the prosperity that Jia Rong has seen after his drastic improvements in Jincheng, Jia Xu chose to trust.

"For specific matters, you and Zhang Li and Zhang Zhao will discuss it again, and give me a clear document in three days." Jia Rong left without saying a word.

"No!" Jia Xu bowed and bowed.

What Jia Rong is sure of is that such an army will react faster in combat and have a tighter control over the morale of the army. The soldiers and generals at the bottom are the backbone of the battle. To grasp them is what the generals at the top want. Rebellion is also very difficult to succeed. In a regiment, each department is responsible for its own duties, and Emperor Han would not be able to escape Chang'an so easily.
