Chapter 749 Legion Founding
After arranging things properly, Shang Ji was free for a while. The outside world is in full swing, but Lequan is busy. In terms of military training and rectification, Shang Ji has become the most leisurely one.
The only task is to expand the Black Armored Xuanqi, but because the soldiers are high-quality and the supplies are abundant, the expansion process is quite smooth.
But Zhao Yun and the others were much busier, not only responsible for the expansion of their own arms, but also had to come up with a reasonable plan for the deployment of troops. This matter cannot be decided by standing in front of the map and patting your head. It needs to be based on the actual situation of each place, referring to the local mountain topography, population size, strategic position, and even cultural features.
Even with Luo Shu's assistance, he often had to go on a field reconnaissance trip in person, so he was too busy to keep his feet on the ground.
After the Battle of Lequan, Shang Ji's total troops on the Dead Continent broke through to four million, of which more than 80% were surrendered troops. Reorganizing these armies is a labor-intensive task.
According to the latest military plan submitted by Zhao Yun and others, more than 40 legions were compiled and trained from 4 million troops to a legion of 100,000 people.
And these legions are divided into three types according to their strength and support: garrison legion, field legion, and main battle legion.
As the name suggests, the garrison army is responsible for defending the place. To put it bluntly, it is a second-line arm. According to the proposal submitted by Zhao Yun and the others, a garrison army should have 10,000 heavy cavalry, 20,000 light cavalry, 40,000 melee infantry, and 30,000 long-range infantry.
And according to Xun Yu's latest administrative plan, relying on nine big cities, nine towns have been established, and each town has a commander, who is in charge of all military affairs in the town!
Yes, according to the discussion, it was decided that all the cities in the National War Continent, regardless of whether they are civil or military, will send a military general as the commander, and then send a scribe as the deputy.
In their respective eups, the commander has extremely high power. This method is of course a way to bring disaster under normal circumstances, but it is perfect for the National War Continent. It can greatly improve the efficiency of mobilization and concentrate efforts on major tasks.
The only side effect is that the various commanders may have signs of separatism due to the expansion of power, but the prestige of Shangji is enough to ensure that the various commanders under his command will not and dare not make trouble before the end of the national war. And once the national war is over, leaving the territory where they grew up, the threat of the commanders will no longer exist.
According to Xi Zhicai's proposal, two garrison corps were deployed in each city, one was in the main city, and the other was divided into four quarters. According to actual needs, consider whether to deploy additional field troops.
As for the field army, as the name suggests, it is the elite main force that can be pulled out to fight. The garrison corps is mainly Tier 4, with only a small number of Tier 5 soldiers, while the Field Legion is the lowest Tier 5, and at least 30% of them are the main special forces in Pingzhou.
In addition, the proportion of cavalry in the field corps has been increased, from two light and one heavy to three heavy and one light, and at least 10,000 of them must be the five main cavalry.
The rest are allocated different special arms according to the combat tendency of the legion. For example, those who are mainly inclined to defense are equipped with giant shield soldiers, and those who are inclined to attack are equipped with northern crossbows or Japanese shooting soldiers.
According to the strategic plan,
The field army will be the pillar force of the Pingzhou army, used for decisive battles with the enemy in the field, and a field army is not only the smallest combat unit but also the largest tactical unit.
As for the main battle legion further up, it can be called the elite legion, the strategic legion, etc. According to the plan, the five special cavalry, melee infantry such as giant axes, giant shields, mad knives, and heavy guns, and the sun-shooting, northern crossbow, and weapon-handling infantry And other long-range arms, each with 100,000 units as a unit, form a strategic army.
Originally, the Hundred Wars Phantom Pawn and Xingyao Crossbow were added in the plan, but Zhang Xi and Liu Yi were not there, and the two major arms could not be expanded, so they had no choice but to cancel them.
According to the final vision, Pingzhou needs to build eighteen garrison regiments, fourteen field army regiments, and thirteen main battle regiments (there are two black-armored black knights...), plus flying phoenix fire cavalry, bloodthirsty tiger ben, phoenix Dance Guards, Shura Guards and other independent legions whose numbers are strictly limited.
There are a total of forty-three regiments and four independent legions in the whole army, plus some other auxiliary arms, the total strength of the whole army is as high as 4.5 million!
Of course, the above plans are still on paper for the time being...
Fortunately, the garrison army only needs to adjust the troops distributed in all directions, and then reorganize a little bit.
The Field Legion is a bit difficult. The configuration of special arms and the selection of the commander of the Field Legion are all troublesome. The fourteen field regiments needed 1.4 million fifth-rank soldiers, and the soldiers were quite tense.
As for the thirteen main armies, this is even more exaggerated. Even after searching all the surrendered troops, they couldn't find so many high-level units that met the requirements. Other special units can make do with it, but the Black Armored Xuanqi requires a minimum of Tier 6, so all Tier 6 soldiers can be spared at once.
In order to complete this strategic plan, the shortage of high-level soldiers is as high as more than one million, which also means that one million soldiers need to be selected from a large number of fourth-level soldiers, and then trained as fifth-level soldiers.
This is also a very challenging task for the Pingzhou Army, which has a large number of top generals.
The only luck is that the training efficiency of soldiers in the National War Continent is three times that of the conventional situation, which makes it possible to complete this task.
Shang Ji's plan is to complete the training of the above-mentioned troops within one and a half months. If the situation permits, the time can even be postponed to two months later. It's just that it depends on the situation. Once the surrounding countries take the lead in completing the unification of the national area, they will definitely not allow Shang Ji to train troops leisurely.
"My lord, General Yanhuang Chen Mo is visiting!"
Just after he came out of the barracks and trained a group of black-armored knights again, the attendants suddenly came to report.
"Chen Mo? Tell him to wait for me in the living room!"
There has always been a Yanhuang liaison officer in the Shangji army, who is responsible for the information communication between the two sides. And in this case, sending Chen Mo over, it must be something more important to discuss.
"General!"
Seeing Shang Ji coming in, Chen Mo immediately stood up and saluted. After several years of experience, Chen Mo looked a lot more mature, and even had a mustache at the corner of his mouth. Affected by the beacon fire, his speech and behavior also tended to be ancient.
"How is General Chen?"
"Thanks to the general, it's been going well recently!"
Shang Ji was also very happy to see his old friend. Although Chen Mo had other purposes in Shang Ji's army, he actually helped Shang Ji a lot. Jinglue Xianbei was Chen Mo's suggestion, and this was also the beginning of Shang Ji's rise.
The two of them chatted politely for a while, and Shang Ji began to turn the topic into a more serious matter: "General Chen, Yanhuang sent General Chen over, but what's the matter?"
Chen Mo was not pretentious, nodded and said: "The general is as quick as ever, and Shangfeng sent me to ask the general."
"Tell me."
"First of all, congratulations to the general for becoming the first player to capture a giant city during the national war, laying the foundation for the unification of our Huaxia region."
Without waiting for Shang Ji's reaction, Chen Mo continued: "The general must also know that the giant city of the Dead Continent is heavily guarded, with high walls and deep walls, and arrows raining down like rain. The cost of attacking the city is quite high. According to our information, the US District has a huge A huge city launched a strong attack, with nearly three million casualties, and even finally exposed a trump card to win the city."
"Oh? The U.S. region has also captured the giant city? So they are about to unify?"
Chen Mo suddenly laughed, gloating and said: "The US area stormed the giant city. I wanted to be the first force to take down the giant city, but I didn't expect to be preempted by the general. In addition, because of the storm, the players in the US area suffered heavy losses. It is impossible to attack the giant city again within this time."
Shang Ji also laughed when he heard this. As the biggest competitor, all Chinese people in the United States will be happy if they are unlucky.
"Then what do you mean?"
Chen Mo clasped his fists together and said, "Pingzhou has excellent military equipment, and it is even more unique among the siege equipment. A few days ago, General Huang Zhong and General Liu Meng used the Dragon Cannon to attack the city, which shocked the entire Huaxia District. "
Speaking of this, Chen Mo paused: "I was ordered to borrow troops from the general this time!"
"Oh? Borrowing soldiers? What kind of excuse?"
Seeing that Shang Ji didn't refuse on the spot, Chen Mo was even happier, and quickly explained: "I heard that the general has a special unit called the Mechanical Soldier, and we would like to borrow this army temporarily.
Of course, it would be even better if you can temporarily lend us heavy equipment such as the Explosive Torch Stone Vehicle and the City Breaker Cannon. During the lease period, the rent is three silver per day for each soldier. As for the siege equipment, according to the scale, it ranges from ten gold to one hundred gold per day. During the lease period, if the soldiers or equipment are damaged, as well as the consumption, etc., they will be paid according to the market price! "
"During this period, your army and our army will form a coalition army. Once the city is breached, the national war points will be distributed in accordance with the system regulations. General, what do you think?"
After speaking, Chen Mo looked at Shang Ji with hope, waiting for Shang Ji's reply.
Shang Ji pondered for a while, the conditions Yanhuang gave were quite generous, and for a while the Shang Ji army was mainly composed of the whole army, and the purely attacking army of manipulators was also idle, and it was fine to rent it to Yanhuang temporarily.
"Can!"
After a moment of silence, Shang Ji spoke slowly.
Chen Mo's expression brightened, and he was about to thank you, but he heard Shang Ji continue: "The general can lend you all the manipulators, and temporarily lend you two hundred explosive torch chariots and forty city-breaking dragon cannons." , and even provide extra support for some of your high-level troops.”
Chen Mo immediately calmed down when he heard the words, and quickly asked, "What about the general's conditions?"
"First of all, all transfers of our troops during the lease period must be carried out with the consent of our accompanying generals, and no coercion is allowed."
"Of course, it's the same even if the general doesn't say it. We are a coalition army. Although we have many troops, the coalition army is a coalition army, and all actions will be discussed."
"Secondly, after breaking through the giant city, try your best to capture the owner of the giant city alive. Once you succeed, hand over the owner of the city to me. I will pay your army an additional fee of one million gold. As long as you agree to this condition, the army can set off at any time!"
That's right, Shang Ji set his mind on the lords of the other three giant cities!
The lord of Lequan City is Kuang Zhang, and the other three giant city lords should be similar to Kuang Zhang in theory. Shang Ji is very curious about them. Although the hope of successfully capturing them alive is slim, it does not prevent Shang Ji from trying.
