The lord hunted down by the game

Chapter 207 Military Restructuring
After the last war with the Anglo-Spanish Alliance, the complex and huge military system left over from the founding of the American Empire has become much neater.

The ruthless Yuri used the hands of the British to completely wipe out the three major armies.

For the American Empire, this is undoubtedly the best way. After the destruction of the three major legions, the heroes and martyrs of the American Empire will be killed, and the traitors will be the ones who surrendered. Since the entire legion was destroyed, few people escaped. The imperial government of the United States has even spared the problem of resettlement.

The destruction of these three legions was not just a reduction in soldiers. How many officers and generals were there in the three legions?
Especially those generals, each represents an interest group behind them, and these generals are the founding heroes of the American Empire. Yuri cannot do anything to them due to emotion or reason.

Otherwise, no matter how famous Yuri's tyrant reputation is, no one is willing to sacrifice his life for Yuri...

The lower-ranking people can tolerate the cruelty and ruthlessness of the superiors, but they cannot tolerate the superiors' indiscriminate purges of meritorious people.

After all, no one wants to be killed by those in power after they have made great contributions...

Tyrants don't matter, what people value most is clear rewards and punishments.

In this way, talents and elites from the people can be continuously attracted to become officials.

And the predicament faced by the American Empire at that time was indeed not like killing people with a knife.

When Yuri was attacking the Florida province, the British suddenly came under pressure, and the three armies had already assembled and stayed in the built fortifications to resist, while Napoleon's first army was scattered throughout the empire to suppress the young and Maintain logistics lines.

No matter how you look at it, the American Empire has no way to mobilize other reinforcements. The three major armies were beaten by the British head-on due to their lack of strength. No one can find fault...

And Yuri went north alone to defeat the main force of the British army. It also happened after the British army occupied a continent. At that time, the three major legions were destroyed for a long time.

Therefore, that perfect borrowed knife killing eliminated the "military heroes" at the founding of the American Empire, making Napoleon's First Army the only regular field army in the American Empire.

As for the Fifth Army led by Domingo, it joined later, and its active area has always been in the Florida province, which has little impact on the American Empire itself.

After the composition of the army was cleaned up, the last resistance to the reorganization completely disappeared.

In the middle of the 4th year of the Sauron Era, Yuri completed the basic framework of the regular army's division, regiment, battalion and company.

Because this era is still in the period of queuing and shooting, the army fights in horizontal formations one by one, and the soldiers form a dense formation, and the company-level square formation is the most basic combat unit.

The establishment of the platoon leader is of little significance, and generally only plays the role of adjutant and supervisor.

The real lowest-level full-power commander is actually the company commander.

The American Empire shortened the name to Company Commander.

A company phalanx has about 100 people, and a battalion consists of five companies, which just make up the five companies in the front, back, left, and right sides. That is to say, a battalion has the ability to fight independently if it is pulled out alone.

Of course, if the opponent is a bandit or the like, a company can fight alone...

Therefore, the number of a standard infantry battalion is about 500 people.

However, considering the increasing number of armies of various countries on the battlefield today, it is difficult for battalion-level basic combat units to be competent for individual combat missions. Thousands of Sioux tribal cavalry can be easily pulled out!

Obviously, an army of this size can easily overwhelm an infantry battalion.

Therefore, in the American Empire, the regiment-level combat troops are the truly independent teams, and this is under the premise of facing weak enemies.

A regiment includes 3 infantry battalions and some directly-affiliated supply companies, scout companies, regiment artillery, cavalry, regiment guards, etc., with a total number of more than 2000 people.

What is counted here are all combatants. Even the baggage companies are the army's baggage soldiers equipped with guns, not civilians who are only responsible for logistics and transportation.

In fact, the people who transported the grain and grass materials were all the laborers recruited during the war, and the role of the supply company was often to act as a guard.

This is why baggage companies are also included in combat troops.

The standard regiment of more than 2000 people already has a mounted infantry gun configuration, which is sufficient to face low-intensity local wars, especially when the opponent is in a backward civilization!
However, Yuri never regarded the Indians as enemies, and the standards of enemies naturally had to be on par with the most powerful European countries in the world.

Therefore, there are division-level combat troops above the regiment-level troops, and a standard division is the main force used by the American Empire to undertake a line of defense.

If not enough, just two divisions...

A standard division is full of three standard regiments, as well as divisional artillery regiment, divisional cavalry regiment, divisional reconnaissance battalion, divisional supply battalion, divisional guard, etc., with a total number of more than [-] people!
Of course, these more than 1 people are combatants!
As a result, the First Army, which originally had more than 2 people, was reorganized into the Imperial Army, with the First Division and the Second Division under it.

After reorganization, these two divisions have the capability to independently undertake a theater of operations, and the expansion of the army will also expand in this way in the future.

Although the total number of troops seems to have remained unchanged, the number of cavalry and artillery in the Imperial Legion has more than doubled after the reorganization!

Therefore, the comprehensive combat effectiveness of the Imperial Legion is much higher than that of the former First Legion.

The American Empire can only have one legion now.

Domingo's Fifth Corps was reorganized into the Florida Frontier Division.

Domingo's unit, Yuri, didn't intervene too much in the adaptation, he just changed his name and lowered the military status of Domingo's unit.

Because since then, the American Empire has only one regiment and one commander Napoleon, so after being downgraded to the Florida Border Division, Domingo is theoretically Napoleon's subordinate.

It's just that the Florida border division was deployed by Domingo from top to bottom, and it was very difficult for Napoleon to intervene.

Most soldiers in this era still consider generals after all, and the phenomenon that soldiers are generals has not changed.

Moreover, hastily abolishing the meritorious officers and generals who surrendered has dealt a great blow to the morale of the army.

Although Domingo's unit was a surrendered and reorganized force, it made great efforts when it captured the Florida province. Without Domingo, the American Empire wanted to wipe out the Spanish manor rebels and the rebels in the Florida province. The Indian rebels don't know how much energy and time they will spend.

Domingo was able to quickly wipe out the province of Florida, naturally because he was the leader of the New Spain Governor's District, and this advantage played a vital role in the sweep.
