Chapter 2116 Integration and acceleration of Guizi scrolls

Coming out of Wang Chengwu's mountain camp, Feng Ziying entered the city with Wang Chengwu, accompanied by Zheng Chongjian, Wu Yaoqing, and Li Guibao.

Wubao County is too small. After completely solving the threats from Boyan Village and Baitang Village, Wang Chengwu took the initiative to withdraw the Yueshan Battalion from Wubao City, and Feng Ziying also agreed.

With the recruitment of Boyan Village and Baitang Village, other small border villages quickly followed suit, while the rebels outside the border villages fell into chaos and fled.

Some surrendered, and this group accounted for about 60%, while the rest fled in all directions, heading west and south. Baoan, Qingjian, and Yanchuan were the directions and targets of these rebels' escape.

 The surrendered ministries first became the targets of Wang Chengwu's Yueshan Battalion for reorganization.

 According to the military establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if the Yueshan Battalion was to be formed into a complete battalion, it should have five divisions totaling more than 3,300 people.

Before, the Yueshan Battalion only had three troops with about 2,000 men. After this battle, the Yueshan Battalion performed admirably in the city defense battle, especially Wang Chengbiao’s courage to lead 300 men to launch a night attack. Although in fact this The battle is more due to the efforts of Big Rabbit Falcon Village and Boluo Temple Village, but Feng Ziying is still very optimistic about this point of courage.

It is reasonable to complete the replenishment into a complete battalion, and Feng Ziying also generously allocated 300 firecrackers and several tiger squatting cannons to the Yueshan Battalion so that the Yueshan Battalion could quickly follow the training of the firearms unit. The model is put into training to achieve rapid formation of combat effectiveness.

It can be said that Feng Ziying's generous move made the three Wang brothers shed tears of gratitude. You must know that even among the border troops, this firearms unit is the elite among the elite. For people like Yueshan Camp, Wang Chengwu thought he was still a replacement guard, but After gaining such favor from the governor, he felt that it would be a shame to Feng Ziying if he did not train an elite force.

"Chengwu, I watched today's drill. I know that you trained very hard, but to be honest, your performance is not good enough." Feng Ziying said as he walked: "I know that the short training time is the main factor, but Yan'an In the south, Qingyang and Pingliang, as well as the eastern part of Xi'an Prefecture, are still in chaos. I am the governor of Shaanxi. I can't wait too long. I can't wait until you are thoroughly trained before sending troops to pacify it, so you have to speed up... "

Wang Chengwu was a little nervous, "Don't worry, sir, the general will train these **** even if he doesn't sleep..."

"Well, Mr. Zheng is here as an envoy from the Ministry of War. According to the regulations of the imperial court, any newly formed army above a battalion must be reported to the Ministry of War for approval. The army can only be officially formed after approval by the Ministry of War. Before, I killed it first and then reported it, but the documents have been sent to the capital. Master Zheng will be responsible for the training at the beginning of this training, and you will assist..."

Wang Chengwu knew the rules of the Zhou Dynasty and used civil servants to control military affairs. Most of the time when the army went out, civil servants served as commanders, while military generals were only responsible for specific operations. At the same time, in terms of training, civil servants made training plans and military commanders carried out the training, especially when firearms began to develop. After equipping the army on a large scale, the court took this point more seriously.

 “Here.” Wang Chengwu also gave a military salute to Zheng Chongjian.

He was a member of the Ministry of War and was a Jinshi. Wang Chengwu was born with some awe and respect. After two days of contact, Wang Chengwu also felt that Zheng Chongjian was not as difficult to deal with as he had imagined. He made a training plan, one by one, and was willing to listen to it, including and make improvements based on the opinions of military commanders and officers, including myself.

"One of the two new units is the Fire Gun Army. I will arrange for the Shanshan-Shaanxi Chamber of Commerce to deliver the more than 300 Fire Guns that are still lacking within half a month. Dazhang, you and Cheng Wu need to discuss and study the training strategy. We strive to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, but the archers still need to be strengthened, and the fire gun soldiers and archers can complement each other."

Feng Ziying does not plan to turn Yueshan Camp into a firecracker at once. Although judging from the number of firecrackers that Shanshan merchants can provide, two or three thousand firecrackers can be squeezed together, but if they are all pressed into Yueshan Camp, it will definitely It is inappropriate, but in the next few months, it should be more reasonable to gradually achieve a configuration ratio of two musketeers, one archer, and two spearmen.

Feng Ziying also needs to consider the reorganization of a group of border soldiers such as Datu Falcon Village, Boluosi Village and Yuerhe Village.

In order to calm down the entire situation in Shaanxi as soon as possible and quickly form a strong guard army, one cross-mountain battalion alone is definitely not enough, so it is indispensable to form two other battalions based on the border soldiers.

 The promises made to Datu Falcon Village and Boluosi Village seemed a bit too lenient in the eyes of Wang Wenyan and Wu Yaoqing.

The combined strength of the two villages is less than 2,000, and even if the strength of some other small villages is included, it is only over 3,000. Giving them a battalion is more than enough, but Feng Ziying still plans to fulfill his promise and give them Establishment of two battalions.

Even if it is impossible for them to complete the two battalions now, the two battalions must be set up first, and then they can be gradually enriched in the next step.

 Zheng Chongjian was fully aware of Feng Ziying's arrangements.

Of course, the over-mountain camp where Wang Chengwu is located must be the focus of training, but the cavalry camp based on Big Rabbit Falcon Village and the foot camp based on Boluosi Village must also keep up.

The training of the cavalry camp in Big Rabbit Falcon Village will be handed over to Chen Qiyu, while the training of the infantry camp in Boluosi Village will be handed over to Sun Chuanting.

The men and horses of Yuerhe Village will be integrated into Feng Ziying's next personal barracks. Of course, this personal barracks is a battalion in name, but in fact it is just one unit, with more than 600 people.

 This is Feng Ziying’s preliminary plan.

Everything cannot be done according to the conventional system. The purpose of keeping Xie Zhenye is to ask the Shaanxi Dusi to ratify the formation of these battalions. After returning, the plan will be quickly reported to the Ministry of War in the name of the Shaanxi Dusi.

"My lord, we must pay close attention to training, but the rebel army has fled west and south. I don't know, sir..." Wang Chengwu knew that if his mountaineering battalion wanted to quickly gain recognition from the Ministry of War, it would need continuous military exploits to add glory to it. Tiancai, you can't get a real name by training alone.

"Why, I'm not anxious yet, and you are anxious?" Feng Ziying glanced sideways at Wang Chengwu, "There are enough battles for you to fight, but I'm afraid that your over-mountain camp will be exhausted after just a few battles. If you don't destroy the foundation If you fight hard, you will lose a group of old soldiers in each battle. How many battles can you withstand?"

Wang Chengwu laughed awkwardly, his ugly face looking even more ferocious, "Sir, all the men are looking forward to making meritorious deeds. The more we fight, the more energetic we will become. As for the casualties and losses, hehe, we have all eaten this bowl of rice. Who still doesn’t understand the principle that the earthen pot never breaks apart from the wellhead? Life and death are determined by destiny, and wealth is in the sky. As long as you can win, then there will naturally be supplements."

 This can be regarded as a means of supporting war with war. Wang Chengwu did not mind recruiting subordinates from other rebel armies.

 Isn’t this the case for all rebels?

Mutinies, fires, and dispersions can produce a large number of soldiers. Who cares about this?

Isn’t this the whole point of serving as a soldier and eating food?

Although there was no clear reply to Wang Chengwu's words, on the way back, both Zheng Chongjian and Sun Chuanting felt that Wang Chengwu's words made sense.

If you really have to wait until the troops are almost fully trained to start taking action, it will definitely be a little late. The battlefield situation is changing rapidly. Who would have expected that the fall of Hancheng would lead to the rebel army entering the Jin Dynasty?

If you strike early, you can at least control the situation earlier and prevent it from developing into an uncontrollable state.

Of course Feng Ziying understood what Wang Chengwu and the others were thinking. Although as the governor of Shaanxi, she could dominate the sky with one hand, before Yueshan Camp became famous, the big shots in the court would not take it seriously at all. They would only stare at her and think that this was The guards you formed yourself, others will probably be ignored.

If Wang Chengwu and the others want to have a greater future in the future, they can only rely on continuous fighting and winning, accumulating reputation among the big shots in the court, and finally achieving a leap forward and a change in status.

Since they are working as food errands, they must hope to go further. The status of being a Qian Zongzong is now satisfactory to the Wang brothers, but who doesn't have higher hopes?

 Who can help but admire and admire those in the garrison, guerrillas, generals, and even the deputy commander-in-chief and commander-in-chief?

Zheng Chongjian and Sun Chuanting also had some thoughts of their own.

Shaanxi is a good place to do practical things and make political achievements, especially in such a chaotic situation. Zheng Chongjian is already a member of the Ministry of War, while Sun Chuanting and Chen Qiyu are still observing politics. If they can play a decent role in calming down the chaos in Shaanxi If the actual performance is achieved, it will definitely be of great benefit to future promotions and job placements.

Seeing that I am already a high-ranking official sitting around and looking around, I used to be a classmate in the same college. If I say that I don't have any envy in my heart, it must be a lie. I should be able to catch up and keep pace with others, right?

Of course, Feng Ziying can understand, and is willing to create some opportunities for classmates like her who are close to her to form a party instead of selfish interests, and just like-minded people.

Returning to the "Governor's Yamen" in the county town, Zheng Chongjian and the other three were sent away, leaving only Feng Ziying, Wang Wenyan, and Wu Yaoqing. Wang Wenyan said: "Sir, if we want to speed up the establishment like this, I'm afraid the materials needed will be huge. The Shaanxi Chamber of Commerce…”

"We have already arrived at Qikou Ferry. We will arrive tomorrow at the latest. Go and explain to him and ask him to contact the merchants from Shanxi and Shaanxi to make a list of the supplies needed and give them to them. They will be delivered to Wu within one month. Fort, I only plan to stay in Wubao for a month before I have to undergo skin care. Within a month, I will stabilize the northern part of Yan'an Prefecture..."

Feng Ziying was calm and composed, and there was no doubt in her tone.

“I’m afraid one month is a bit tight, right?” Wu Yaoqing said hesitantly.

"I didn't ask them to bring firearms. They are very capable. Do you think they are all good people? The Mongols outside the border wall, and Shanxi Town, Yulin Town and Datong Town inside the border wall, they all have transportation links, so it's okay It's not a problem to take out some half-old armor. As for weapons such as swords, guns and shields, I plan to temporarily borrow some from the Yulin Army." Feng Ziying had already made a plan.
