Datang New Order

ps: Thank you Brother Eagle Zhou for your reward, and thank you brothers for insisting on encouraging monthly tickets.During this period of time, I was busy with meetings, and all kinds of intermittent, it is really not conducive to code words, please forgive me.

During the Battle of Bohequan, the Qi Army's Guo Qiqi Department and Qi Army's Wang Shike Department turned against the water and captured Lingchuan, which can be regarded as a small contribution to the blockade of the coalition forces of the princes.Therefore, Li Chengzhong did not hold them accountable for joining hands with King Liang in the Northern Expedition.

The Yan army won a complete victory in the Shangdang decisive battle with the coalition forces of the princes, and wiped out hundreds of thousands of main forces of the Liang army in one fell swoop. This battle actually laid the foundation for Li Chengzhong to fight for world hegemony.Now that they have decided to fight for world hegemony, Qi and Qi naturally cannot be allowed to exist. Therefore, Li Chengzhong will not allow Guo Qiqi and Wang Shike to lead their troops to attack Henan as a "coalition army"-after defeating Henan, they will immediately force the so-called "Qi State" bowed its head, and as for Qi State, it is impossible to let it go down.

Li Chengzhong simply recruited Guo Qiqi and Wang Shike, and stated his intentions aboveboard.He said that the world has been separated for 50 and [-] years, with endless wars and devastation. This situation is absolutely unacceptable to him. The intention of the Yan army is to restore the unity of the Tang Dynasty and re-establish the central authority.He asked the two to return with their respective armies, and told King Qi Li Maozhen and King Qi Wang Shifan that they should either organize their own armies and prepare for the Yan army's crusade; Wang Jue, in exchange for a family business for future generations.

Guo Qiqi and Wang Shike each led their troops to leave Shangdang, and the Yan army released Taihangxing and let him go.Wang Shike will head east along the Yellow River and head straight back to Qingzhou, while Guo Qiqi will go up the river to Fengxiang.When the two left, they both had mixed emotions. Looking at the majestic and mighty Yan Jun, thinking about their own future, their hearts were full of twists and turns, and they sighed all the way.

When Qi Jun and Qi Jun left Taihang Xing.The entire Shangdang area became a training camp for recruits of the Yan army.Around Shihoubao, Tumenling, Changping Village, Sizhuang, Gaoping, Jiepailing, Huguan and other key points, the two sides have built more than a hundred large and small camps, fortresses and fortresses. Take it directly and use it.Therefore, under the instruction of Li Chengzhong, the Military Staff Administration brought all the above-mentioned facilities under the jurisdiction of the Operations Training Department, and established the sixth recruit training camp of the Operations Training Department, which is also the most regulated one, named Shangdang Recruit Training Camp.

For this reason, the Training Department recruited training instructors from wounded soldiers in the Shangdang War.A group of training instructors from the five major training camps in Hebei were dispatched to Shangdang urgently.

The capacity of the Shangdang training camp can be as high as 50, but if it is used for military training, it is only within [-], but even if it is [-], the training department cannot train it, because the number of instructors is severely lacking .

Zhou Kan's plan is to first train the [-] to [-] elite soldiers who surrendered. The purpose of the training is mainly "reorganization" and supplemented by "training".As long as they are dispersed into various supplementary battalions, and then let them understand the military regulations of the Yan Army-there is no need to memorize them, just know them!

Yu Housi fully cooperated and transferred the soldiers who had done meritorious service.A large number of officers above rank were temporarily appointed. Their task was not to lead the soldiers to fight, but to lead the surrendered army properly, and the replenishment was not the same as the regular supplementary battalion of the Yan Army.Team by team is replenished as a whole, but dispersed, and when there is a shortage of soldiers, they will be replenished immediately.If one is missing, one should be supplemented, and if two should be missing, two should be supplemented.

This will undoubtedly reduce the combat effectiveness of these elite dental soldiers, but it can ensure the smooth operation of the Yan Army's command system to the greatest extent, and it can be regarded as a gain and a loss.

After the efforts of the Operations Division, 20 days later, these dental soldiers were reorganized into 130 seven supplementary battalions, waiting to enter Henan at any time.

Immediately afterwards, the Operations Division started the second round of training, which was more formal this time, with the same system as the Hebei recruit training camp, and the training period was three months.Hundreds of thousands of soldiers marched into designated camps and were taken away by instructors one by one, starting their new military career.

Contrary to the training division's concentrated training of the army, the Yuhou Division began to repatriate sergeants on a large scale.It's not that Li Chengzhong is preparing to release the horse to Nanshan, but that the maintenance of the army is too expensive. After more than half a year of fighting, the production in Hebei has been seriously affected.The first thing Yu Housi repatriated was the [-] supplementary battalions hoarded in the Shangdang area. Some of these more than [-] soldiers participated in the battle, and some had not yet been on the front line, but no matter what, they always stayed on the battlefield. They should go home.

More than [-] people returned to Hebei from Fukouxing in batches, and then each received a generous reward and returned home happily.Although they returned home, the number of the supplementary battalion has not been cancelled, and their names are still on the rosters of each supplementary battalion. If something happens, they will be able to gather again soon.

The second batch of repatriation is the reserve brigade stationed in Handan. In the establishment of the Yan army, the reserve army is also a standing army, with one battalion for each county and one brigade for each state.These [-] to [-] reserve troops have been stationed in Handan, guarding the direction of Xiangwei, and are an important force to ensure the safety of Hebei when the Shangdang battle is fierce.Now that the war is over, they have also received orders from Yu Housi to return to their respective prefectures and counties.When the army gathers together, it consumes three times as much food and fodder as if they were scattered back to the local area. Let them return to the states, which can greatly relieve the food pressure in Handan.

The last batch of repatriation was the hundreds of supplementary battalions still hoarded in Handan. They didn't play any role in the whole war. They stayed on standby for more than half a year, and then set off on their way home.However, although they have not experienced the baptism of war, the officers and men of the General Staff of the Military General Administration believe that mobilizing them is still worthwhile. Supplementary soldiers are also a force that can be pulled out immediately, so their supplementary battalion numbers have not been revoked.

Starting from late December of the second year of Tianyou, the disarmament of the Yan army continued for a month, and did not end until the end of January of the third year of Tianyou.In this large-scale disarmament, the Yan army abolished a total of 20 Hebei soldiers and 15 Henan soldiers, which greatly eased the food pressure. At the same time, because Hebei soldiers returned home, Hebei's productivity has been largely restored. , for the Yan army still assembled in the Shangdang area, the support they received was significantly higher.

Although 35 people have been reduced, the combat power of the Yan Army has not been greatly affected. At present, the Yan Army in the Shangdang area is mainly composed of the nine supplementary field armies, followed by the expanded Liaodong Security Army and Youyan Army. The security army and the Jinzhou army can directly pull out 15 troops in the field.besides.There are also more than 100 supplementary battalions reorganized by Liang Junya soldiers, and [-] Liang Jun soldiers who are still being trained in the Shangdang recruit training camp.

For the Yan army, the large-scale battle with the world's number one main force was an out-and-out baptism, which further verified the dispatching and organizational capabilities of the Yan army's command system on large corps and large battlefields, straightening out and solving the problem. Many previously undiscovered command issues.At the same time, for the first-line main players of each branch, it is also a rare opportunity to run in.

According to the original arrangement of the Military Staff Administration, the supplementary battalions recruited from the grasslands outside the customs, Bohai Sea, Silla and other places were set up independently and prepared to form an independent army.The priority to be replenished is also an army with a large number of barbarians like the Wyatt Coalition Army.However, as the war gradually intensified, when the Shangdang battlefield was divided into two major battlefields, Gaoping and Xiangyuan, and then there was a large-scale outside line that jumped out of Hedong, no one raised such an idea.

The situation at that time was that any soldiers were replenished, regardless of whether you were Hu or Han, one order was issued, and they were pulled up to directly enrich the battlefield.Especially as the battle for the Jiepailing defense line in the south of Gaoping became increasingly fierce, many Yan army camps defending the hills suffered heavy losses.A large number of soldiers of Khitan, Bohai, Silla, Shiwei, Kumoxi, Zahu and other ethnic groups filled in directly according to the principle of proximity.

This kind of experience made the Yan army an out-and-out coalition army of all ethnic groups, although it was still dominated by Han people.But it is filled with many barbarians.The Hu people and the Han people fought side by side, almost indistinguishable from each other, and unknowingly solved the problem of the fusion of Hu and Han sergeants that the General Staff of the Military Staff had been thinking hard about.In fact, only as far as the status quo is concerned, after the Shangdang War.There is no essential difference between the Wyatt Coalition Army and the other eight armies. The military system is completely similar, the only difference.It's just the composition of the military - the left and right compartments are respectively horse-buoyed, that is, the horse-buoyed army model.

Among the officers and soldiers of the Wyatt Coalition Army, more and more voices have begun to appeal to the General Staff of the Military Staff, requesting that the name be changed and that it be given a similar number to the other Eighth Army.It is said that Li Chengzhong himself is considering it, but the matter involves Hebei's major policies outside the customs, and it still needs to be carefully considered.

After a big battle, all the troops were exhausted, and the post-war finishing tasks that needed to be dealt with were too complicated, so Li Chengzhong never issued an order to go south.Officers at all levels of the General Staff of the Military Staff are so busy all day long that they are immersed in recruiting, reorganizing, eliminating, food, supplies, planning, etc.; the main forces are also licking their wounds, holding military merit evaluations at all levels, and selecting meritorious soldiers. Straighten out the disrupted upper and lower levels, select and replenish vacancies.For a while, he couldn't spare his life to seize Henan.

To be honest, maybe this is one of Yan Jun's characteristics.Perhaps it would be the other army, directly engulfing the soldiers, putting together a large army, and going south directly in less than half a month.But the Yan army was different. Starting from Li Chengzhong, all the way down to the lowest ranks of the capital, team officers, gang leaders, etc., they felt uncomfortable if they didn't clear up the affairs at hand and restore the army.

Therefore, from Zhengdan to Lantern Festival in Tianyou's three years, the Yan army spent in Shangdang.During this period of time, Li Chengzhong only issued two military orders to the outside world. One was to coordinate with the states in Hedong to search for the traces of King Liang and his party. Wang escaped into the Henan channel.Another military order is to surrender to Li Siben of Jinyang and Li Cunjin of Yanmen, and let them change flags quickly.

Li Siben and Li Cunjin's surrender came quickly, and they each sent their eldest sons to Gaoping with elite soldiers, saying that they were contributing to the army, but in fact they were hostages.Li Chengzhong readily accepted this and asked them to take orders from the Jinzhou army. As for the second general himself, he was asked to stay where he was.So far, the entire Hedong has fallen into the hands of the Yan army.

The results of the search for King Liang were not good. For more than a month, there was no trace of King Liang and others. This was not what Li Chengzhong expected. extremely difficult.

However, Li Chengzhong really didn't dare to delay any longer. At the end of January, he finally issued an order that the army leave Hedong and march into Henan. (to be continued..)
