Chapter 410 Consolidation of troops!

The ranks of military officers in the Han Dynasty were divided into three levels: general, general Zhonglang, and school lieutenant.Since generals are not often placed, they are only called generals who command troops when there is a war. Therefore, the highest official position that ordinary military officers can obtain is General Zhonglang, with a rank of "bierqianshi", who is in charge of the royal guard. From the end of the Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period, there were more and more people with military merits, and a large number of them were named generals. Zhonglang general became the position of middle and lower-level officers, and school lieutenant directly became the lowest-level officer position.

As a result, Ma Chao established a bottom-to-top military officer system in accordance with the Ma's army system, which are the eight ranks of military officers, including Wuchang, Shichang, Captain, Tuenchang, Xiaowei, Miscellaneous General (partial general), and Zhonglang. This is to govern the eight-level organization of the Ma family's army, corps, team, tun, qu, department, battalion, regiment, and brigade.

As for the names of the orthodox generals from the fourth rank to the second rank of 'Siping', 'Si'an', 'Sizhen', and 'Sizheng' above the miscellaneous generals, Ma Chao has no right to appoint them.After all, he is currently only a second rank Fuguo General.

At present, the highest rank in the Ma family's army is Pang De, who holds the position of general who seeks bandits.At the time of establishment, Ma Chao allowed Pound to control a battalion of 610 people.Now, the soldiers and horses in Ma Chao's hands have also swelled, and he feels that Pang De should also become the number one leader in Ma's army at this time.

"Ling Ming!"

"Chen is here!"

"I order you to raise the rank of the general of the thief, and to control a regiment of combat power!"

"This subordinate is grateful for the trust of the lord, and he is so heartbroken that he will not hesitate to say anything!"

The combat strength of this regiment already has 840 five people, and it can be said that Pound is alone in dealing with a small battle.

Excluding the [-] men, Ma Chao still had [-] men left.At this point, Ma Chao still belongs to himself in accordance with the usual system.

"Gong Ming!"

"Subordinates are here!"

"During the Battle of Chang'an, you were able to command well and attack well. Now you are specially appointed as the General of Breaking Attack, and you will be in charge of the reorganized battalion of heavy armored cavalry!"

"Subordinates take orders! Go through fire and water, no hesitation!"

The heavy armored cavalry is the Ma family's No. [-] attacking force. After realizing the inherent defects and huge consumption of the heavy armored cavalry, Ma Chao prepared to hide this army. However, the taxes in Yongzhou are quite rich now, which is enough to support the Ma family in the battle. Improve the combat tactics of heavy armored cavalry.As a result, Ma Chao delivered the appointment with pride.As for Xu Huang's new general, he has since become the No. [-] figure in the Ma family's military department.

"Wenyuan!"

"Subordinates are here!"

"The Yanbei Cavalry charged and looted Wushuang in this world, and now you are named General Anyuan, and I ordered you to form a battalion of Yanbei Cavalry. Are you up to the task?"

"The subordinates will die to repay the lord's kindness!"

Xiliang iron cavalry and county soldiers are the main combat power of the Ma family, and Ma Chao's intention to order Zhang Liao to form Yanbei cavalry at this time is actually a signal that the Ma family's military department will transform from this: with the continuous development and growth of the Ma family, Incorporating everything, the Ma family's military department will not only have the Xiliang cavalry and the county soldiers in the future, but will become a new type of dynamic military department with each showing its own capabilities and competing for strengths.

"Gao Shun!"

"Subordinates are here!"

"I have seen the prestige of being trapped in the camp with my own eyes in Tongwu. Now I will designate you as General Yamen, and form a trapping camp from the infantry of the Ma family!" At this point, Ma Chao paused for a moment, thought for a while and continued: "The Ma family also has a battalion of heavy armored infantry, which will also be under your command!"

"This..." Gao Shun was a little hesitant now. Pang De, Xu Huang, and Zhang Liao were appointed to lead one party in one position, but he was in charge of two parties in one position, which really flattered him.

"I've thought about it. The reason why there are only 800 people in the camp. Is it because their armor is also heavy?" Seeing Gao Shun's hesitation, Ma Chao asked.

"Of course. Compared with the heavy armor of the Ma family, the heavy armor of the trapped camp is really not mentioned. The subordinates believe that if all the subordinates of the trapped camp wear fish-scale chain armor, they can meet the defense requirements, and they can break through in the march. In terms of attack, don't slow down..."

"Well, you can discuss this with Han Feng afterwards. What I mean is that the heavy armored infantry of the Ma family have always rushed to the battlefield because they did not have a suitable general, fearing that they would suffer too much damage. It is also true that they finally found General Gao today. How can a man in command of heavy armor let the heavy armored infantry be dusted?"

"Thank you, my lord, from now on, I will do my best and never give up!" Ma Chao said so much, Gao Shun could only accept his orders with grace.

As for the rest of the generals, Zhou Cang and Liao Hua were loyal, and the battle of Qinguan made Ma Chao very grateful. He was specially promoted to partial generals, allowing them to reorganize all the infantry of Ma's army, and usually hand them over to practice. Since then, all the current infantry of the Ma family have taken shape. The elite are Gao Shun's trapping camp and two heavy armored infantry, and the rest are one Ma family infantry each from Zhou Cang and Liao Hua.

Liang Xing also made meritorious service in this battle, and Ma Chao was rewarded according to his military merits, and he was also promoted to partial general; and Yang Feng, a well-regulated and calm general, was not overlooked by Ma Chao, and he was still promoted to partial general.

Since then, Ma Chao's corps has been reorganized. There are more than [-] iron cavalry from Xiliang in Pound's regiment; more than [-] wild goose cavalry from Zhang Liao; There are more than [-] Xiliang iron cavalry in the four divisions of Gao Shun and Yang Feng; Gao Shun's camp and heavy armored infantry, and the two infantry of Zhou Cang and Liao Hua also have more than [-] people.There are more than [-] people in total. In addition, there are [-] Xiliang iron cavalry left by Niu Fu. Ma Chao decided to organize them first, and put them under his own name for the time being. The propaganda team incorporated into the Ministry of Rites brainwashed and reformed them.

And these are just the regular combat troops of the Ma family.In addition, the Ma family's military department naturally includes the intelligence department and the shadow; and there is also a staff department to formulate combat plans and strategies.In fact, the most important thing in the entire Ministry of War is not the generals who lead the troops, but the two positions of Chief of Staff Shi and Chief of Staff Sima. They are what Ma Chao is targeting.As for the appointment of these two positions, Ma Chao has already made up his mind.

"Wen You, in Chang'an, you turned from the dark to the bright and helped me break through the fortress. You are now appointed as Chief of Staff of the Ministry of War, and the Black Ice Platform under your command is assigned to the Ministry of Intelligence."

The position of staff officer Sima is naturally reserved for Xun You, who is still undercover in Chang'an; and Li Ru, to be honest, is quite talented.But because he debuted with the wrong master, he could only hide in the military department and be in charge of military affairs.However, fortunately, Ma Chao's system of three provinces and six ministries is not rigidly divided. When it comes to military and political matters, Li Ru can still be a counselor.

As for his black ice platform, Li Ru can no longer manage it by himself.For that secret army, Ma Chao knew its power well.Therefore, he really dared not let outsiders control him except for his closest relatives and trustworthy people.Otherwise, if one piece of information is wrong, it is very likely that [-] Ma family sergeants will be buried.Therefore, in the intelligence department of the Ministry of War, Ma Chao nominally took over under him, but in fact the intelligence was handed over to Diao Chan.As for the Shadow Troops, Ma Chao is in full control, with Brother Chou single-handedly in charge.

"My lord, when the Black Ice Terrace is investigating the affairs of Yongzhou, the third mistress has been given full responsibility..." Li Ru is a smart man, and he also knows that it is impossible for any ruler to hand over a department with such important information to An outsider took care of him, so he handed over to Diao Chan in advance, with Ma Chao's heart.

Ma Chao nodded naturally, quite satisfied with Li Ru's understanding.But now that the Ma family's military department has been established, Ma Chao can't wait to know the changes in Chang'an.Because, the heart in his chest has faintly started to agitate and boil during the few days since his return...
