Farming Lord of Crossing

Chapter 207. 206. Restructuring the Army
The army of more than ten thousand orcs invaded, and this war, which was about the life and death of Stan, ended in such an anticlimactic manner, which shocked everyone's eyes.

When more than 1 orcs came, they were mighty and ambitious, which brought endless panic to Stan.In the end, only a few hundred people escaped back, and the rest of the orcs were all buried in the defense line of the western region of Stan.

The Stan collar only paid the price of two or three hundred soldiers to win the war.Although there are all kinds of weirdness in this war, the final result is what every Stan leader would like to see.

The people of Stanland will remember that it was the lord who led the army of Stanland to block the attack of more than ten thousand orcs, and won the final victory of the war, defending the territory and protecting the people.

When the war is won, it is natural to celebrate and reward the soldiers.

With a wave of his hand, all the guards who participated in the defense of the Western Regions will be rewarded with one gold coin each, the guards who participated in the siege of West Town will be rewarded with two gold coins each, the guards of the Sword Corps will be rewarded with five gold coins each, and the knights of the Rock Knights will be awarded five gold coins. Each person will be awarded ten gold coins.As for the reward for warriors, it is doubled.

Bruce also brought a large amount of meat, and even brought all of Mandela's wine storage to let the soldiers have a good night of carnival.

In fact, Ross also understands very well that after this battle, the kobolds were seriously injured, and the gnolls were blocked by the tauren, and the tauren was under his control, so at least in recent years, the Stanland will not be threatened by the orcs again. up.

Stanland can now develop and build steadily.

Another implication is that the Stan collar does not need so many troops.Not to mention the tens of thousands of gold coins rewarded just now, the annual purchase of weapons and armor, as well as the herbs, potions and food taken by the soldiers is a very huge expense, even accounting for half of the Steinland's finances.

Now counting the guards in various villages and towns and the 1 recruits who are being trained, there are a total of more than [-] troops in Stanland. This is extremely unreasonable for Stanland, which currently has only [-] to [-] people.If it weren't for Los's "rich and powerful", even if all these people were squeezed dry, they would not be able to support so many troops.

However, Ross does not intend to reduce the army, because after these years of wars and the current complex form, Ross is very aware of the importance of the army, whether it is self-protection or the possible expansion of the army in the future.However, Ross will not increase the army anymore. After all these years of wars, it is obvious that the role of ordinary guards on the real battlefield is too small, or their only role is cannon fodder, even in front of the Knights. Cannon fodder counts.

A squad of guards can't even beat a warrior, and no matter how many they raise, it won't help.

So after the celebration meeting was over, Ross immediately called a meeting with the top leaders of the Stan-led army to discuss the issue of army reform.

Seeing Thomas, Oliwen, Dennis, Hobbs, Xiumi, Ornis, Wei Lian, Laoonis, Balka, Laka, Parthia and other officers in the meeting room, Ross nodded in satisfaction. The shelf is set up.

"Gentlemen, the war has been won! This is your credit, and it is the result of the hard work of all the soldiers in Stanland!" Rose said with a smile, "After this war, the orcs will no longer be a threat to us, and we are safe and peaceful. life has come!"

"Oh!"

"Great!"

"The day has finally come!"

Everyone cheered and celebrated heartily. The people here were originally villagers of Stan Village, adventurers, refugees fleeing from other countries, and downcasts in Wellington City. They were all deeply persecuted by the orc invasion. Their hands and even their whole bodies were covered with orc blood.

At this time, hearing the lord say that the orcs are no longer a threat, and they can finally live a stable and peaceful life, everyone has a feeling that they have finally overcome all hardships and survived.

Ross also felt relieved when he said those words, but territory construction and territory management are not an easy task.

After making everyone quiet, Ross looked at Thomas and asked seriously: "Thomas, after fighting for so long, what do you think of the structure of our army now?"

Everyone was taken aback, not knowing what Rose's question meant, only Dennis lowered his head thoughtfully.

Looking at Ross's serious expression, Thomas quickly reviewed the current army structure led by Stan and the battle situation in the past two years, and then said slowly: "My lord, if the orcs are no longer a threat to the territory, I personally think that Stan There are too many leading troops, and an army of tens of thousands of people is too bloated and wasteful.

And there is another fatal problem. Although our army has a lot of data, the number of warriors is too small, less than one-tenth of the entire army.To be honest, ordinary guards have no advantage against orcs at all, and often require the cooperation of a small team to kill orcs.

Such an army, if, I say, if it encounters the Knights, or the real Orc Legion, it will have no resistance at all.

My personal suggestion should be to appropriately reduce the number of ordinary guards, select qualified and self-motivated young guards to train warriors, and increase the number of warriors as much as possible.Of course, the most important thing to build and expand is the knight order. If we have a knight order with more than 500 people, this war will be completely different. "

When he said this, Thomas had a serious face and some pity.

The others looked at each other in blank dismay, what's going on?The war has just been won, and everyone can finally live a good life. Why should the army be reduced immediately?How can we treat these warriors who guard their homes with their lives like this?

Ross smiled slightly: "That's very good, Thomas, it seems that you have really grown up in these years. However, I have some different views on the restructuring of the army.

The army led by Stan cannot reduce anyone, and the number of troops will remain at this number in the future. If there are no major changes in the future, the number of troops will not increase.

In addition, the army of Stanland is divided into five regiments from now on.Rock Knights, Sharp Swords Corps, Frontier Guard Corps, Garrison Corps, Guards Corps.

The Knights are the number one fighting force in the territory, and the territory will spare no effort to buy and train war horses to rapidly grow the Knights.

The sharp knife corps has a fixed number of 1000 people, and gathers elite warriors and guards in the territory to serve as a real sharp knife in the territory to clear away all obstacles for the territory.

The Frontier Corps is composed of all the guards on the western defense line of the Stan Territory. In the future, it will be trained, deployed and commanded in a unified manner to guard the borders of the Stan Territory and ensure the stability and peace of the territory.

The garrison regiment is composed of guards from various villages and towns in the territory. In the future, it will be deployed, commanded and trained in a unified way. While protecting the safety of the villages and towns, it is also responsible for maintaining the order of the villages and towns.

The Guard Corps maintains an establishment of 100 people as my escort.

In addition, from now on, the army will be organized according to the structure of small captain, squadron leader, large captain, small commander, major commander, and corps commander.The small leader manages 12 people, the squadron leader manages five small teams, the large leader manages three squadrons, the small commander manages three brigades, and the big commander manages three small commanders.

Finally, from now on all armies will be paid a fixed monthly salary.The selection and promotion of officers at all levels must be based on military merit. "
