"Secondly, leave half of the surrendered army to assist our army to garrison cities in various places, and then recruit a group of recruits to practice with generous conditions. In this way, even if those surrendered officials and landlords who are loyal to the Song Dynasty want to revolt, They don’t have any manpower either! Just wait for three months, after the new recruits have been drilled and formed into the army, they will no longer be afraid of those old and young of the Song Dynasty making troubles!”

After Zhao Junsheng listened to it, he slapped the desk: "Okay, this strategy is very good, let's do it like this! Start immediately and pass on the order. Within a few days, people from all over the country will arrive in Jiangxia City one after another, waiting for unified reorganization!"

Zhao Junsheng didn't expect how powerful the private soldiers of these landlords and the surrendered troops drawn from all over the country would be, as long as they couldn't cause trouble for the rear. The cadres drawn here can at least draw 1 people. With these 1 people, Zhao Junsheng has enough confidence in his heart.

Zhao Junsheng asked: "Who do you think will be the general for dispatching 5000 people to fight against Nanjun?"

Sima Chuzhi and Li Bao clasped their fists together and said, "Your Majesty, please judge!"

Zhao Junsheng thought about it, and said to Sima Chuzhi, "How about letting Zhu Gui go?"

Zhu Gui is the Sima of Sima Chuzhi's army. He is over forty years old. He has partnered with Sima Chuzhi for a long time. Using Zhu Gui as a general to attack Nanjun can be regarded as a well-known soldier. A general who knows soldiers should be able to command them with ease.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Sima Chuzhi said.

"Since that's the case, it's settled!"

Afterwards, various orders were conveyed one by one. Within two days, soldiers and horses from nearby cities came to Jiangxia City to gather and stand by. Landlords from all over the country were in great distress. Some people want to take advantage of the unstable rear of the dry army to raise troops. Now that Zhao Junsheng has transferred their private soldiers and troops from various places, they have become toothless tigers!

Remember Aishang in 1 second:

Chapter 1059

Five days passed, and under the auspices of Liu Gun, the Jiangfang fortifications were completed.

Coincidentally, the surrendered soldiers recruited from the places just captured were also in place one after another. Under Zhao Junsheng's order, Liu Gun quickly arranged for the deployment of troops for the Jiang defense fortifications. They also stationed some dry troops.

"From now on, all your surrendered troops will be renamed the Congcong Army. It will be inconvenient to call them within three years. During these three years, gradually eliminate the old, weak, disabled, disobedient, and pro-Song generals and soldiers, and those who can stay All reorganized, changed titles, awarded designations, and officially became a member of the dry army!"

"In short, it's just a sentence. It's not that I have the intention to guard against you who have surrendered soldiers and generals. I will give you people a chance to see your performance! You have to take actions that are recognized by me and the Daqian Dynasty, otherwise Why do you make me and Dagan trust you?"

Zhao Junsheng spoke loudly in front of tens of thousands of private soldiers who had been conscripted from the newly occupied area and the powerful landlords.

"I have made the most important military exploits. Whether you are now a member of the Confederate Army or you will officially become a member of the Gan army in the future, as long as you are not afraid of death and dare to fight on the battlefield, you will be rewarded for your military exploits! So, think To be recognized by others, you have to show your courage and strength!"

After Zhao Junsheng finished his lecture, he asked Li Bao, Niu Dali and others to reorganize the more than [-] Congregation Army, let them have an organization, and record it in a book.

Under the arrangement and busy schedule of Li Bao, Niu Dali, Hua Xiong and others, the more than [-] Xie Congjun troops were reorganized into three schools, and the leading officers were school lieutenants. Because it is not a regular formation of the dry army, it cannot be named as the army. When it appeared, it took the title of a school. The strength of a school is about [-] people, which is equivalent to the strength of a township garrison.

The temporary numbers are Jiangbei No. [-] School, No. [-] School and No. [-] School.The leading captains were selected from the generals of the army, and Zhao Junsheng promoted three commanders to serve as the captains of the three schools. Most of the commanders and building masters in the three schools were promoted from the army. The purpose, of course, is to ensure that Zhao Junsheng has absolute command and control over these allied forces.

Zhao Junsheng beckoned to Liu Dang, and Liu Dang immediately came over and clasped his fists and said, "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

Zhao Junsheng said: "All the surrendered troops and powerful private soldiers of the landlords recruited from the area just captured are here. There are more than 1000 people. Now these soldiers will be collectively called the Cong Congjun Army! Let me ask you, your river bank defense line Approximately how many troops are needed?"

Liu Gun did some calculations in his mind and replied, "At least five thousand is needed!"

Zhao Junsheng said: "I will give you six thousand, enough food and grass, and enough military equipment. You guard the river for me! These people are transferred from all over the country and they are not familiar with each other, so they have to practice while stationing. You must also be strict with military discipline! If you have meritorious service, I will not hesitate to be high-ranking officials and generous salary;

Liu Gunxin said that the emperor's words were open and clear, and an emperor should be like this. If the emperor always speaks with hidden mysteries, the ministers and generals will only focus on guessing the emperor's mind all day long, so how can they have the energy to work?

He immediately saluted and responded loudly: "I will definitely live up to your majesty's high expectations and trust!"

Of these more than 1000 people, [-] were taken away by Liu Dagon, and there were more than [-] people left. In addition, [-] people had surrendered to the army before, so there were still more than [-] people who joined the army as a mobile force.

In addition to the Xie Congjun, 6000 new cadres were added to the cadre army, plus the original [-] and more than [-] people brought by Sima Chuzhi and Li Bao, for a total of more than [-] cadres.

Among the more than 6000 cavalry, there are 8000 cavalry, and the remaining 8000 are infantry. In the battle of river defense and city defense, the cavalry can hardly play a role, and can only be used as a deterrent, so it is these [-] that can really be used. infantry.

But in terms of the current military strength, the Gan army is no longer afraid of the Song army crossing the river to counterattack. The key question is whether Liu Gun can control the allied troops and defend the river defense.

On this day, Zhao Junsheng was studying strategic deployment in the lobby of the prefect's mansion.

Sima Chuzhi was notified by him to rush over, "I see Your Majesty!"

Zhao Junsheng asked: "Sima Qing's family, how many cavalry are there among the five thousand soldiers Zhu Gui brought to attack Nanjun?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, last time the cavalry was brought by the veterans, and there were not many cavalry among the soldiers and horses stationed in various places, so there must be no cavalry among the 5000 people Zhu Gui brought, and even if there were, it would not exceed two hundred ride!"

Zhao Junsheng thought about it, and said: "Only relying on [-] infantry is still not enough for fighting. If the Song army in Nanjun finds that Zhu Gui has [-] infantry, they will have the courage to gather troops to fight Zhu Gui in the wild! How about this, pass on my order, dispatch three thousand cavalry to rush to Jingling to meet Zhu Gui, and be under his command and restraint for the time being!"

Sima Chuzhi clasped his fists and agreed, "No!"

Zhao Junsheng thought about it again, and said: "At present, our army has divided the cavalry and infantry into an army, which seems to make the combat advantages of the cavalry more obvious, but in fact it has not fully utilized our army as a whole. Combat power, on the contrary, limits the overall combat capability of our army!"

Sima Chuzhi thought for a while but couldn't figure it out, "Your Majesty's words, I feel a little confused..."

Zhao Junsheng said: "Look, based on the current situation of our army's infantry and cavalry being organized separately into an army, if it is a large-scale group battle, this organization has great advantages. It can not only give full play to the advantages of the infantry formation, but also Let the cavalry take advantage of the group charge! But once encountering small-scale battles, this kind of army will be subject to many restrictions in combat!"

"Let me make an analogy. If both sides have a battle scale of more than a thousand people participating in the battle, all of them are infantry, which can only give full play to the advantages of siege, and have no advantages in maneuvering and quick reinforcements in field battles; if they are all cavalry, they cannot attack the city at all. If you encounter areas with dense water networks or mountainous areas, this army will not be able to play a role at all.”

"However, if a mixed formation of infantry and cavalry is adopted, it can play a role no matter what the terrain is, especially in local battles and small-scale battles. Draw infantry or cavalry!"

"It's like we now have to transfer additional cavalry to Zhu Gui's command. First, it's too troublesome, but the reinforcements deployed to rush over have the disadvantage that the generals are not familiar with each other, which will bring certain obstacles to the command!"

When Sima Chuzhi heard what Zhao Junsheng said, he also felt that the current establishment did limit the military's combat capabilities. It is impossible for the Qian State and the Song State to fight such large-scale battles all the time. There will always be a truce .

But the truce does not mean the end of the hostility. As long as the hostility is still there, small-scale battles will often break out between the two sides on the border. At this time, the role of mixed infantry and cavalry will be reflected.

There are conditions for the mixed formation of infantry and cavalry, but none of the parties are aware of this problem. After all, the main enemy in the past was the Rouran people. They are used to fighting the Rouran people in large groups of cavalry. It was a border conflict, and it was also surrounded by cavalry. The infantry had no advantage in facing the Rouran people.

But now that the main enemy of the Qian State has become the Liu Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty, the cavalry large-group combat model will not work. The city can do it, so the cavalry can basically only play a threatening role, and the infantry still has to rely on the siege!

To achieve the strategic goal, it is necessary to carry out the mixed formation of infantry and cavalry, and the reform of the military system is imperative!But carrying out military system reform is not a simple matter. It involves various issues. First of all, we need to make a comprehensive plan and come up with a specific and detailed plan. After the plan is made, it is not easy to implement it. , which takes time.

Sima Chuzhi clasped his fists and said: "The old minister felt enlightened after hearing what His Majesty said. I always feel something is wrong these days. I dare say that the problem lies here. It seems that the imperial court is indeed going to work on the military system!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded: "I will ask the Ministry of War to come up with a restructuring plan first. The southern garrison should be the first to be restructured. This is what the southern garrison urgently needs. The northern garrison still needs a transition period. Because the Xinjiang side wants to control the grassland and monitor the barbarians in northern Serbia, the cavalry is still the main force! You should let out some rumors here and see the reactions of the generals and soldiers of the southern armies!"

Sima Chuzhi agreed: "No!"

While the Gan army was actively deploying defenses, the Song army in Xiakou on the other side of the river was not idle.

On the night of September 29, under the order and command of the commander-in-chief Xiao Bin, the Song Army Navy in Xiakou suddenly dispatched to attack the Qian Army's water village in Hanshui.

At dawn on September [-], when the sun jumped out from the horizon, the sentinels of the Qianjun Army on the watchtower of the Hanshui Water Village suddenly discovered that a large number of Song Army navy warships blocked the river where the Hanshui River entered the river.

"Dangdangdang..." The lookout post immediately sounded the alarm.

The rapid sound of the alarm bell woke up everyone in the water village. The navy commander Xu Yibao and his deputy Wu Xi ran out of the barracks and boarded the watchtower. Their expressions changed.

"What's going on here, did the patrol boats we deployed on the river send back an alarm?" Wu Xi asked loudly.

The lookout post immediately replied: "Back to the two generals, the villain has not closed his eyes since late at night. Before dawn, the lights on the patrol boat are still on, and there is nothing unusual!"

Xu Yibao said solemnly: "Don't ask, Xiao Bin must have planned it well. Since he is going to dispatch, he will make sure that nothing goes wrong. The warning ship must have been raided, otherwise it is impossible to send back the warning!"

Wu Xi said with a gloomy face: "Now that the warships of the Song Army are blocked on the river at the mouth of the river, our navy is like a tiger in a cage. What can we do? Besides, how will you and I explain to the emperor?"
