Take the earth to enshrine the gods

Chapter 218 Security Division
Sending off Uncle Zhong, Qian Yuan turned and returned to the quiet room.

After meditating cross-legged, Qian Yuan pinched the magic formula with his hands, a ray of light shot out from between his brows, and instantly magnified, it turned out to be a bloody flying sword.

This sword is four inches nine in length, the whole body is like blood jade, crystal clear, but also has a gentle breath, you can't feel a trace of killing, but there is a trace of holiness lingering in it.

This is exactly the life-killing sword that Qian Yuangang successfully refined.

Refined with Geng Gold, the Killing Sword is unmatched in sharpness, and there are thousands of years of blood beads in it, which can absorb the killing spirit, and kill without karma.

It can be said to be the ultimate treasure for attacking and killing.

The Killing Sword and the Good Fortune Ding, one attack and one defense, one kill and one holiness, two two opposing, and two two cooperating, will definitely become one of Qianyuan's biggest trump cards.

It's a pity that, as Qian Yuan, this sword will not have the chance to drink blood on the battlefield.

…………

On the tenth day of May, it was sunny.

Guo Jia, who has been promoted to a doctor of the Fifth Military Division, came to report the army reorganization plan.

A few days ago, the screening and interrogation of the prisoners of the Zhao Yao Army had come to an end, and more than [-] people from Taixuzong's dark chess were found out, ranging from the brigade commander to the pawns.

It can be described as shocking.

All these dark chess pieces were sent to prison, and the court in charge of prisons sentenced them to death.

The battle damage of each department of the Southwest Corps has also been supplemented one by one. The slightly wounded have returned to the team, and the seriously wounded have also started to retire while arranging for treatment.

After the preliminary work is completed, the next step involves specific army reorganization.

It needs to be determined by Qian Yuan.

After listening to Guo Jia's report, Qian Yuan felt a headache. It's not that the plan was not good, but that it was too good.

According to Guo Jia's plan, the First Division of the Southwest Corps will add one brigade to its full strength; the Second Division will add two brigades to its full strength.

The Guards Battalion was upgraded to the Guards Brigade.

While restoring the organizational system of the Jiwei City Guard Brigade, preparations were made for the establishment of the Zhaoyao City Guard Brigade and the Muyang City Guard Brigade.

All in all, this time, six new brigades will be added at one go, and the army will be expanded by 5000 people. The size of the fiefdom's army will also reach three divisions and two brigades, totaling 42500 people.

Almost catching up with the size of the Fourth Army.

"This is too exaggerated." Qian Yuan put down the army reorganization plan, and looked up at Guo Jia, "Feng Xiao, you don't think that Du Zhisi will agree to this plan, do you? It's just child's play."

If you really want to expand the army like this, the fief financial designation will be dragged down.

Guo Jia seemed to know that he was going to be scolded, so he bit the bullet and said: "Your Highness, we captured more than 3000 prisoners of war this time. These are all high-quality soldiers. We can't all be dismissed. It would be too wasteful."

In fact, some generals in the army proposed to form a third division.

Was suppressed by Guo Jia.

Otherwise, the army plan reported by the Five Armies Division will only be more exaggerated.

Qian Yuan's heart trembled, and he suddenly realized that the military had formed a group unknowingly, becoming an important force in the fief, a powerful voice.

This kind of voice is ready to affect the strategy of the fiefdom and army.

Of course, this kind of grouping is not to fight against Qianyuan, but to compete with the civil official group and strive for greater interests and the right to speak for the military.

The confrontation between the civil and military groups gradually surfaced.

Just before Guo Jia came to report, Cao Rui, the doctor of the Duzhi Division, came to report the financial situation of the fief, basically complaining, and it seemed to be just an ordinary report.

Now it seems that he is inoculating Qian Yuan.

"It's really fun."

Qian Yuan was secretly vigilant.

After thinking for a while, Qian Yuan said: "Feng Xiao, you are a smart person. I won't say anything unnecessary. You should be clear that it is unrealistic and irrational to support such a large army with the power of a county. .

"What's more, I'm a vassal king, and I'm only responsible for guarding the southwest, so I don't need an army of this size. Reckless expansion of the army is bound to cause fear in the court. Have you ever thought about this?"

What is a vassal king doing to raise an army of [-] to [-]?
Court suspicion is inevitable.

"Then, what does His Highness mean?" Guo Jia asked.

Qian Yuan said: "I can agree to the expansion plan of the Southwest Corps and the Guards Battalion. But the city guard brigade needs to be compressed. Since the Southwest Corps is in charge, there is absolutely no need to deploy city guards in every prefecture. brigades, creating massive redundancies in the defense force and dragging down the finances."

Before taking down Zhaoyao City, Qianyuan's deployment of the city guard brigade was actually a disguised form of military expansion, in order to bypass the imperial court's surveillance.

It is no longer necessary.

Guo Jia felt relieved, the Southwest Corps is the core of this military expansion, if His Highness agrees, he can have an explanation with the lieutenant general.

As for the piece of the city guard brigade, Guo Jia himself did not agree. The reason why he took it out was to respond to the general's appeal and to give him room for bargaining.

After thinking for a moment, Guo Jiadao said: "What His Highness said is true. In this case, I suggest that a guard division can be formed with three to four brigades under its jurisdiction to dynamically defend the city defenses of various prefectures, not limited to any city."

"That's good."

Qian Yuan was very skeptical, whether Guo Jia had this idea long ago.

After discussion, the two decided that the establishment of the garrison division would be divided into three brigades, which were reorganized from the Qingqiu City Guard Brigade, the Miaoyi City Guard Brigade and the Jiwei City Guard Brigade.

In this way, there is no need to increase the establishment of the city guard brigade.

The scale of this military expansion has also been reduced from 5000 to 1. Although the scale is still considerable, it is much better than the previous plan.

Presumably there will not be much resistance in Duzhisi.

Next, Qian Yuan and Guo Jia had a detailed and in-depth discussion on the defense areas of each ministry and the candidates for the generals of the new troops.

By the time everything was settled, it was already evening.

"Stay here tonight, let's have dinner together." Qian Yuan stretched in a very unimpressive manner.

It's been a busy day.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Being able to dine with His Highness is a gesture of intimacy.

…………

On May [-]th, the army reorganization plan was officially announced.

The Swagger Guard Division was established, headquartered in Swagger City, and Xu Rong was promoted to the post of division commander.

The Qingqiu City Guard Brigade was reorganized into the First Brigade of the Security Division, stationed outside the city of Zhaoyao, responsible for guarding the city of Zhaoyao, and Xu Rong was still the commander of the brigade.

The Yiyi City Guard Brigade was reorganized into the Second Brigade of the Garrison Division and stationed in Teng County, Yiyi Prefecture. It replaced the Second Brigade of the Second Division of the Southwest Corps and was responsible for guarding Tengshe Pass.

Yu Jin, the former brigade commander of Yichengwei Brigade, no longer holds the post of brigade commander of the second brigade, and has another appointment.

Chang Zhen, the new brigade commander.

Speaking of Chang Zhen, he may be very unfamiliar. He is a general of the Fifth Panshi who "jumped" from the first division before, and he served as the brigade commander in the first division.

This time it can only be regarded as "official reinstatement".

It can be regarded as fulfilling Qianyuan's previous promise, and will never treat this group of generals badly.

Another point is that Chang Zhen was responsible for leading troops to guard the pass when he was in the First Legion, and he often fought against the army of the Zhulong Kingdom.

The Minwei City Guard Brigade was reorganized into the [-]rd Brigade of the Security Division, replacing the [-]th Brigade of the [-]st Division of the Southwest Corps, responsible for guarding the Weishui Pass and the Qingshui Pass.

The brigade commander was promoted from Zheng Dai Chonghua, the first battalion of the second brigade of the first division of the Southwest Corps.

Dai Chonghua is a veteran of the fiefdom's army. When Qianyuan became a fan of Yize County, Dai Chonghua was already the deputy commander of the Yize County City Defense Battalion, and later was responsible for the formation of the fiefdom's first cavalry battalion.

Before and after, Dai Chonghua participated in no less than ten battles. He is a veteran who has made great contributions to the fief, and his promotion this time is a matter of course.

You can't chill the heart of the veteran.

Taking a step back, Dai Chonghua accidentally broke through to the early stage of Wu Zong during the battle of besieging and killing Tai Xuzi, and his strength is enough.

It can be seen that the replacement of the regular army by the garrison to guard the border pass is a highlight of this army reorganization.

There are two purposes.

One is to give the garrison a chance to practice in actual combat.

According to Qian Yuan, the garrison division is also a regular army and should not be inferior to the Southwest Corps.

The second is to loosen the ties of the Southwest Corps.

Since it is a garrison division, it should shoulder the responsibility of defending the local defense. In the future, the mission of the Southwest Corps should be outside, not inside, and should not be limited to Zhaoyao County.

From this, it is not difficult to see Qian Yuan's ambition.

This is exactly the same as the purpose of abolishing the Tangting Mansion and setting up the post of swaggering city guard.

…………

The personal guard battalion was expanded into the personal guard brigade, and Xu Chu was promoted to the post of brigade commander.

This is least surprising.

In this expansion, the Guards Brigade will implement the highest standards and select elites from the entire army. Those who are below the middle stage of martial arts will not even be able to enter the threshold of the Guards Brigade.

Next, it is about the adjustment of the Southwest Corps.

The fifth brigade of the first division of the Southwest Corps was formed, and the commander of the brigade was promoted by Geng Biao.

Geng Biao is a former general of the Fourth Army. He was previously responsible for guarding Zhennanguan, but was defeated. He was later placed under Qianyuan's command and demoted to the battalion commander of the first battalion of the first brigade of the first division.

After several battles, the titan Geng Biao finally stood up again, made amends, was recognized by Qian Yuan, and stepped into the ranks of brigade commanders again.

congratulations.

The Fourth Brigade and the Fifth Brigade of the Second Division of the Southwest Corps were formed.

Yu Jin, who left the Yiyi City Guard Brigade, was entrusted with more important responsibilities by Qian Yuan. It would be a waste in itself for a fierce general like Yu Jin to be placed in the garrison.

There was no way to do it before, but now Qianyuan naturally wants to push Yu Jin to the top.

As for the brigade commander of the Fifth Brigade, he is also a newcomer—Fifth Halberd. Needless to say, this is another direct descendant of Gen Zhengmiaohong from the Fifth Family.

Before he knew it, the generals of the fifth family who surrounded Fifth Ziyue were already a force to be reckoned with in the fiefdom army.

It can be said that there is a faction in the faction.
