Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 348 The New System of the Xuzhou Army

For Yuan Tan, the most rewarding thing about the discussions in the Ministry of War and Government Office was Xu Shu's remarks.

In addition, some plans and designs put forward by the remaining generals in the army also greatly improved Yuan Tan's original conception of the military system.

Originally, in Yuan Tan's view, the restructuring of the Ministry of War would at most mean changing the current Xuzhou armies and re-establishing corresponding rules and regulations.

However, Li Dian and Le Jin pointed out that since the war in the late Han Dynasty, the classes in the army had become increasingly unclear.

For example, at Zhang Lu's side in Hanzhong, there are currently no official positions such as military commanders or generals in the army. They are all set according to the rank names of the believers in the Five Pecks of Rice Sect.

Not to mention the incompatibility with the armies of other princes.

Zhang Lu is pretty good.

What are you most afraid of? Take Hebei as an example.

In the Yongliang area, the ranks in the army are divided according to team, column, and square. The first team is the captain, the tenth team is the qu general, and the one hundred team is the military marquis.

This means that in the Yongliang Army, one military marquis can command an army of 5000 people.

In the area of ​​Yecheng, Hebei, the Hebei regular army directly controlled by Yuan Shao was assigned according to the division of one team as army, five teams as Qu, and five Qu as troops.

In other words, the same military candidate, the same song general.

Although the official positions are the same, when they arrive in Yongliang, the power in their hands will expand several times out of thin air.

It might be fine in peacetime, but in wartime, Yongliang's army and Yecheng's army will fight together.

The battlefield is changing rapidly, and even the differences in these details will most likely lead to misjudgment by the commander in the army, and even affect the outcome of a battle.

The current situation of the Xuzhou Army is similar to that of Hebei.

After all, although Xuzhou is only one state, it can't stand the fact that the army under its command has too many sources.

There were not only Yu Jin, Li Dian, and Le Jin who surrendered, but also the first batch of surrendered troops from Xuzhou.

In addition, there are also the Taishan Army recruited from Mount Tai and so on.

Some of these troops have been reorganized and absorbed by the Xuzhou Army, but a large part has been diverted to Pengcheng, Langya, Donghai, Penglai and other counties as city defense troops.

Yuan Tan didn't need to worry about the salary of these city defense troops, so Yuan Tan didn't pay much attention to it before.

But now when they heard Li Dian and Le Jin mention it again, they also became serious.

Regardless of the official system or the grassroots structure of these city defense forces, they have not been changed along with the Xuzhou Army.

It doesn't matter now, but if you want to switch to the military system, you must make a reasonable and feasible military system.

The establishment of the government military system can probably be understood as the establishment of a framework.

Take the Xuzhou Military Mansion that Yuan Tan is planning to establish as an example.

The Xuzhou Military Mansion was the highest, and a government office was built in the city of Xuzhou. Yuan Tan was naturally the No. 1 in the Xuzhou Military Mansion, and served as the supreme commander of the Xuzhou Theater as the Marquis of Qi.

Under the military mansion, Zhechong Mansion will also be established.

The role played by the Zhechong Mansion is similar to that of the previous city defense forces in various counties.

It's just that compared with the city defense forces that are distributed to various counties, the Zhechong Mansion only needs to be established at each key point.

Taking Xuzhou as an example, Yuan Tan planned to establish Zhechong Prefecture in Dingtao, Taishan and Penglai.

These three locations happen to lock the three most critical throats in Xuzhou.

To put it bluntly, whether it is Cao Cao in the east, Sun Ce in the south, or even Daddy Cheap in Hebei.

If you want to take action against Xuzhou, you cannot avoid Zhe Chong Mansion in these three places.

"Reform the military system, let's carry out rectification according to the decimal system."

Yuan Tan put down the pen in his hand temporarily and looked at Deng Ai and Xu Shu on the table below.

The discussion of the Ministry of War and Government Office has come to an end, except for Deng Ai and Xu Shu who were left by Yuan Tan to continue to serve as counselors for him, everyone else went back temporarily.

He and the lieutenant officers and soldiers conveyed the news of Xuzhou's restructuring and the opening of the government and the establishment of teeth.

Yuan Tan put down his pen, but on the other hand, Deng Ai and Xu Shu handed Yuan Tan the work they had done, and they had already done a lot of work, and directly sent the first draft to Yuan Tan.

The military system needs to be changed, and the titles of generals in the army will naturally change accordingly.

In the early years of the big man, all kinds of captains and generals were quite valuable, even the miscellaneous captains and miscellaneous generals were first-class and precious.

But with Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty selling his officials and nobles, he engaged in the practice of giving and receiving privately.

To put it bluntly, before Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang City, he would have gone to Luoyang City and walked around the Xiyuan School Captain.

Just find a soldier at random, maybe you don't necessarily have a captain on your head.

But if you pull over a corporal at random, he will definitely have a miscellaneous captain on his head.

If his family background were more prominent, it wouldn't be unusual to donate a general with a general name.

The proliferation of school captains and generals has also made the generals of the Han army less and less honorable.

This matter is actually quite easy to understand.

For example, during the reign of Han Wu, the general rushed to the battle and showed his banner, "I am the captain of Changshui so-and-so!"

When the enemy team heard it, I rely on it, Captain Changshui, awesome, a master like him, there are only three or five in the entire Chang'an City.

What now?
Not to mention showing the captain of Changshui, the general rushed to the battle and shouted, "General Xu Huang and Xu Gongming are here!"

When the person on the other side heard it, he said, Oh, General Tuolu, what the hell is that?There are 120 generals in our camp, and there are 89 generals in the army, which are higher in rank than your generals in the army.

Why don't you fight first, who is the real general?
This is a joke.

Of course, this is a bit of an exaggeration, but the chaos of the military system and official system in the late Han Dynasty is indeed no better than this.

So what Yuan Tan asked Deng Ai and Xu Shu to do was to simplify and streamline the messy honorary titles of captains and generals in the late Han Dynasty.

Don't get it to the end, there is another 500 people for a song, and as a result, there are more than 500 captains and a dozen school lieutenants among the 40 people.

This job is not difficult, but the main problem lies in the design of the number of captains and generals.

In the draft sent by Xu Shu and Deng Ai, only 24 generals and [-] captains were listed.

According to Yuan Tan's thinking, those who can lead the general in the future, whether it is the four towns or the four generals, are all existences who want to establish a government.

In other words, in other places, perhaps Sizhen is one level lower than Sifang.

But on Yuan Tan's side, regardless of the four towns or the four directions, except for the unique general.

The following twelve general numbers are all of the same level.

……

In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed. In the past half month, the entire Xuzhou Military Department has never been idle.

Everyone is as busy as a spinning top, even the man in charge of logistics who has been staring at the general courtyard with Jiang Qi.

They were all picked out and responsible for explaining various rules and regulations after the military system was reformed to the first batch of surrendered soldiers in Xuzhou.

However, although it is a bit busier.

But the Ministry of War is up and down.

Up to the Hebei direct line like Gao Lan Jiang Qi.

Go down to a Cao Wei descendant like Che Zhou Yu Jin.

There was an unconscious look of joy on their faces.

the reason is simple.

Jun Hou reorganized the Ministry of War, this kind of emphasis only means one thing.

That is, Xuzhou will surely usher in a new battle in the near future.

But for these generals in the army, fame and fortune can only be obtained in a big battle!
