The Three Kingdoms become stronger when they get treasures

Chapter 463

In Zhang Wu's plan, the Ministry of War will also be set up in the future to restrict the governor's office of the five armies.The main responsibilities of the Ministry of War are to appoint and remove generals, review the promotion of generals, train the army, transfer food and grass, etc. It does not command the troops, but basically logistics.The main duty of the Dudufu of the Five Armies is to lead the troops in combat, and they can also recommend generals, but they have no right to dispatch troops.

The dispatching power of the army is directly in charge of Zhang Wu, and no one has the right to mobilize the army to take action unless Zhang Wu authorizes it.

Zhu Yuanzhang took advantage of the mutual restraint and clear division of labor between the Ministry of War and the five military governors to firmly control the power of the army, and also allowed the army to exert a huge combat effectiveness before and after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, launching a continuous campaign against the Mongolian forces in the Northern Yuan Dynasty The Northern Expedition allowed the Han regime to reproduce the majestic appearance of "a strong Han prosperous Tang sweeping the world".

It is still in wartime, and the Five Armed Forces Governor's Mansion cannot immediately replace the current military command system. It is afraid of chaos in the military command. It needs to be gradually transitioned and continuously improved, and finally it must be fully implemented after the unification of the world.

Another purpose of Zhang Wu's establishment of the Dudufu of the Five Armies is to subdivide and separate the various arms, so that the army can be more professional, improve the combat effectiveness of the army, and at the same time avoid the excessive military power of the commanding general.

The General's Mansion issued an appointment. Gan Ning was the Chief Governor of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion, and Zhang Fei was the Deputy Commander, responsible for coordinating various matters within the Five Armies Commander's Mansion.

Chen Sun was the governor of the Chinese military governor's office, and Huang Zhong was the deputy governor.The Central Military Commander's Mansion is in charge of the Central Forbidden Army. Since Zhang Wu has not yet established himself, nor has he become a king, he has not established a forbidden army. Therefore, the current Chinese Military Commander's Mansion only commands the Xiangyang City Guards. A Central Guard will be established.

Guan Yu was the governor of the Zuojun Dudufu, Zhang Ren was the deputy governor, and the Zuojun Dudufu was in charge of commanding the infantry.

Ding Feng was the governor of the right army's governor's office, Jiang Qin was the deputy governor, and the right army's governor's office was responsible for commanding the navy fighting in the inland river.

Ma Chao was the governor of the former military governor's mansion, Zhao Yun was the deputy governor, and the former military governor's mansion was responsible for commanding the cavalry.

Lu Meng was the governor of the Rear Army's Governor's Mansion, Feng Xi was the Deputy Governor, and the Rear Army's Governor's Mansion was in charge of commanding the navy.

At present, the governors of all the governor's mansions are actually just hanging up their posts. First, they will prop up the shelf of the governor's mansion of the five armies, so that everyone can get familiar with it first and gradually adapt and get used to it.

In Zhang Wu's plan, when the world is peaceful, the governors of the governor's mansion will return to the central government to work in the yamen, regularly inspect and assess the troops in charge, and be ordered to lead troops in wartime.

In the future, Sima and other positions will also be established to be responsible for military discipline inspection and combat statistics statistics in the army, and will also have the responsibility of supervising the army.

After all the matters at the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion were arranged, Zhang Wu began to expand the army, taking advantage of the time when farm work was not busy after winter to train new recruits.

According to the plan, after the expansion and reorganization of the army, there will be a total of 33 regular field troops of the Chu army.

Among them, there are 20 infantry, [-] stationed in Hanzhong and Yizhou, [-] stationed in Xiangfan, and [-] stationed in Huainan.

There are [-] inland water troops, [-] stationed in Huainan to control the Huaihe waterway, [-] stationed in Jianye, and [-] stationed in Xiangyang.Now that the battle line has advanced to the Huaihe River, except for the section from Jianye to the mouth of the sea, the entire Yangtze River is very safe. When fighting against Cao Jun in the future, the navy will no longer be the main force.

Therefore, Zhang Wu reduced the number of river naval forces, which were only used for harassment and transportation during the war, and transferred many naval forces to expand the navy.

The navy currently has [-] troops, all of whom are based in Jiaozhou and active in the South China Sea. Military bases have been established in Zhuya (today's Hainan), Yizhou (today's Taiwan), and Rinan (today's central coast of Vietnam), with naval officers and soldiers stationed in each. , serving as a supply point and transfer station for naval navigation.

Vietnam was a Chinese territory during the Western Han Dynasty. After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty destroyed the South Vietnam Kingdom, he established the three counties of Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen and Rinan in the central and northern parts of Vietnam, under the jurisdiction of the Jiaozhou Governor's Department.When Shi Xie, the prefect of Jiaozhi, separatized Jiaozhou, he sent his younger brothers to serve as the prefects of Hepu County, Jiuzhen County and Nanhai County respectively. In this way, northern Vietnam was basically controlled by Shi Xie.

However, Rinan County in the central part was not under the control of Shi Xie. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and the Zhan people took advantage of the chaos to rebel, occupied most of Rinan County, and established Linyi Kingdom.

After Zhang Wu's navy took shape, he ordered Lu Meng to directly lead his army to destroy the Linyi Kingdom of the Zhan people, and restore Huaxia's rule over Rinan County.In order to suppress and deter the locals who disobeyed the rule, Zhang Wu ordered Lu Meng to establish a naval base in Rinan, and at the same time asked Jiaozhou Governor Shi Xie and Jiaozhou Biejia Yufan to select a group of officials to serve in Rinan.

Now the entire northern and central coastal areas of Vietnam have been controlled by Zhang Wu, and a very complete government agency has been established. Lu Meng, Huang Quan, Feng Xi, Pan Zhang and others are leading the navy to attack the southern part of Vietnam. I believe that the whole of Vietnam will soon be It will all become Zhang Wu's territory.

Because Shi Xie vigorously developed Confucianism in Jiaozhou, many Vietnamese now agree with Han culture very much. Most Vietnamese in the north and central regions recognize themselves as subjects under the Han rule, so the process of assimilation is relatively smooth.

After completely occupying the entire Vietnam, the Chu army and navy will expand further south to Malaysia, Singapore, India, West Asia and the Philippines to the east of Vietnam, and eventually include all these places within the territory of China.

The cavalry has an establishment of 5000 people, including [-] heavy cavalry and [-] light cavalry, all of which are stationed on the Western Front battlefield.It's not that Zhang Wu didn't want to get more cavalry, but he really lacked horses and couldn't afford them because there was no suitable place to raise them.

Heavy cavalry has high requirements for horses and soldiers, and the equipment is also very expensive. A heavy cavalry must be equipped with at least two horses, one for fighting and the other for carrying equipment.A heavy cavalryman must be equipped with at least two retinues, who are responsible for raising horses, maintaining equipment, taking care of the cavalryman's daily life, etc. In later generations, the cavalry of the Liao Kingdom was equipped with five auxiliary soldiers.

The price/performance ratio of heavy cavalry is actually very low, not to mention spending money, it is not easy to use, because heavy cavalry only plays a role in very few battle scenes, but once it is dispatched, it will be devastating, and it will be the final word.

Although light cavalry costs less than heavy cavalry, it still costs a lot more than infantry. In addition to horses, light cavalry is also very well equipped. different tasks.

Elite light cavalry must also be equipped with at least two war horses, because the greatest strength of light cavalry is mobility and speed, so it is necessary to equip more war horses for riding.

Therefore, the quota for the cavalry of the General's Mansion is 5000, but this does not include the retinue and auxiliary soldiers. It is calculated according to one heavy cavalry with two auxiliary soldiers, and one light cavalry with one auxiliary soldier. 2 people.These retinues and auxiliary soldiers can also go to the battlefield at critical moments, so in addition to eating food, they must be equipped with simple equipment.

These retinues and auxiliary troops can recruit Hu people such as Di or Qiang people, but the regular army must be Han people. At least 80.00% of the Hu people must be Han people. The 20.00% of the Hu people must also be Hu people with a deep degree of Chineseization.
