First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 76 Allocating Military Affairs

Chapter 76 Allocating Military Affairs

All the way out of the city, it took more than an hour to reach the camp on horseback. There was originally a place for the Yuan Dynasty to gather troops, otherwise it would be difficult to accommodate so many troops.

At the gate of the camp, there are hundreds of soldiers guarding, and the iron armored spears are in an orderly manner.

This is Zhu Biao's first visit, and the soldiers may not know him.But Chang Yuchun Lanyu and others would come here every day to inspect, not to mention that there were 10 people under Chang Yuchun's command.

When the hundred chief of the guard saw the person coming, he immediately stepped forward to greet Chang Yuchun, and the soldiers behind him also knelt down on one knee.

Chang Yuchun stepped aside and said in a solemn voice, "You haven't seen General Tiance yet!"

Before those guards could react, a group of soldiers poured out of the camp, and they bowed down to the bright yellow figure riding on the horse in a neat and uniform way: "The last general will see Admiral Tiance!"

Zhu Biao nodded calmly and said, "Get up!"

Then he entered the camp surrounded by the generals, attracting the attention of many soldiers.

Along the way, Zhu Biao was dazzled by the sight of countless soldiers shuttled back and forth, one tent after another, and basically within 50 meters there were simple latrines, and people pushed lime powder into them from time to time.

There is also a horse farm at the downwind, and the smell of livestock can already be smelled from a long distance, but Zhu Biao does not dislike it at all. In this era, cavalry is still king!

Although firearms have been invented, they are not too easy to use. There are two main types of firearms in Ming Dynasty: the first type is hand-held firearms, which are large in shape and caliber, and are generally filled with lead bullets and iron. Bullets, etc., its range is only a few dozen steps to two hundred steps.

The second type is the large-scale artillery of caliber and shape installed on the stand. Most of the barrels are filled with stones, lead, iron, etc., commonly known as "solid bullets", and a few are filled with explosive pellets. The range is generally hundreds of steps to The distance of two or three miles is mainly used for defending and sieging cities, but also for field battles, water battles and naval battles.

The artillery is okay, but the current firearms are very average in terms of accuracy and reloading speed. Most of the cavalry have only a chance to fire a shot, and finally they have to take out a knife.

However, firearms still have to be supported. When I come back this time, I will gather some skilled craftsmen to try.

After walking for a while, he arrived at the main camp of the Central Army. On the way, Zhu Biao watched the soldiers coming and going, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but lift.

Zhu Biao entered the army tent and sat directly on the top seat. Looking at the generals standing respectfully below, Zhu Biao glanced at about three or forty people: "Sit down, I will review the army today. Meet the generals."

After everyone agreed, they sat down according to the rules. The closest to Zhu Biao were Chang Yuchun on the right and Li Wenzhong on the left, and the rest Lanyu Liu Bowen and others sat down in turn.

The generals got up one by one to report the situation of each department. Now there are about 19 troops, and there are still [-] troops yet to arrive.

After listening for a while, Zhu Biao nodded clearly, and Chang Yuchun got up and said, "Please assign the generals to the positions, so that the soldiers can get acquainted."

The positions of the specific army are not fixed, but the main generals are rearranged to ensure the leadership of the army.

It's almost time now, whoever is in charge of that part will get a good score, otherwise there will be chaos in the chaos of authority.

All the generals present at the scene are above the third rank. The information of these people Chang Yuchun has been handed over to him long ago. If you can control them, then this army can be like an arm. Now is the first year of the founding of the country, can do Those in this position are all arrogant soldiers, and their influence on the army is by no means comparable to those of the noble children of later generations.

Regardless of how respectful they are now, if Zhu Biao made a mistake in his command, then his reputation for being unfamiliar with the military would quickly spread throughout the entire Xungui group, and even killing a group would only show his guilty conscience.

How to solve the worries, only great victory!

Zhu Biao glanced around with a solemn expression and said: "The Holy One means that after the army arrives, immediately swear to go out, and you will be responsible for drafting.

Liu Bowen got up and promised.In ancient times, it was very important to swear an oath, and the army that went on an expedition had an oath ceremony. Generally, the purpose and meaning of the expedition were informed to the soldiers, the evils of the enemy were exposed, and discipline and style were emphasized, that is, a pre-war mobilization and education.

Zhu Biao looked at Chang Yuchun again and said, "The right army is handed over to King Kaiping, and the Hou Huayunlong of Huai'an, the Hou Tang Shengzong of Yan'an, and the Hou Lu Zhongheng of Ji'an will join the Right Army under the command of King Kaiping!

The four immediately stood up and clasped their fists in response to the promise. Zhu Biao nodded. The right army was the strongest army besides the central army, mainly cavalry.

Zhu Biao looked at Li Wenzhong and said: "The left army is handed over to Cao Guogong, and the Marquis of Jining, Gu Shi, Linjiang, Chen De, and Liu'an Hou Wangzhi will be merged into the Zuo army and will be commanded by Cao Guogong!

After they agreed, Zhu Biao looked at Lanyu: "The former army is led by this general, Yongchang Hou Lanyu, Nanxiong Hou Zhaoyong, Guangde Hou Huagao are integrated into the former army, Lanyu leads [-] iron cavalry as the vanguard!

The Hou Mei Sizu of Runan and the Hou Xue Xian of Yongcheng entered the rear army, commanded by Liu Ji, the uncle of sincerity.

In this way, except for Muying's 4 people, the army was basically arranged. Zhu Biao looked at the generals with different expressions in front of him, and didn't give any more lectures. Everything had to go to the battlefield to speak.

Zhu Biao directly got up and walked towards the school grounds. The generals behind him all looked at each other and followed. Zhu Biao asked Chang Yuchun, who was beside him, "During the stationing period, did the soldiers violate military discipline?"

Chang Yuchun replied: "There are people who gather to gamble, some who want to escape, and some who fight each other."

Zhu Biao frowned, but he didn't say anything. The ancient army was not the army of later generations. They actually didn't have any beliefs.

Everyone who has the opportunity has gone to study, and there is no way to join the army. The so-called soldier is paid. As for who to die for, most of them can't control so much.

After the Song Dynasty, all dynasties in all dynasties emphasized literature over martial arts and used literature to control martial arts, and the social status of warriors was low.In the Yuan and Ming military household systems, military households could only serve as soldiers from generation to generation, and they had to perform corvée service as long-term workers for officers.

Especially in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the treatment of a soldier after being discharged from the army is similar to that of a prisoner who has served his sentence. Who would take the initiative to join the army?

The biggest problem of the ancient army was that it was easy to collapse. The average army collapsed after one-tenth of casualties, and the so-called elite soldiers were able to withstand one-fifth.

How did Qin lose in the Battle of Feishui? When someone was retreating on the front line, he shouted that he was defeated, and the result was really defeated.

Zhu Biao also knew that this was the case now, but fortunately, his 30 army had at least [-] elite soldiers, which was his main force.

And Beiyuan's current situation can only be worse, when Zhu Biao claims to have an army of 80...
