The Wehrmacht, which is a national army under the Captain's Office, has now been expanded to six corps, each with a strength of 50,000 soldiers, and auxiliary units to be applied.
In fact, the total establishment of each regiment of soldiers and auxiliaries of the Wehrmacht is basically not less than 150,000, and 50,000 soldiers need 100,000 auxiliaries to serve them.
There are very simple reasons for the need to recruit the people, partly because the army's baggage transportation is in charge of the auxiliaries, and on the other hand, the ruler of the country contracts some of the logistics of the army to the private chamber of commerce.
In addition, with the Taiwei Administration, in order to form the necessary balance, there will inevitably be a department that forms a constraint with the Taiwei Administration, that is, a ruling government headed by the consul, and at the same time, the General's Office was also established by Lu Zhe at the same time.
To put it bluntly, the ruling government is the department that manages the logistics of the army, the Taiwei Department is the general staff of later generations, and the general's office is more like a modern military department, separating logistics, the formulation of operational plans, and the actual command of participating in the war.
This term of the lieutenant is Sima Xin, after all, he is the military general with the highest military achievements and the highest title under Lu Zhe. At the same time, there were enough reasons for Lu Zhe to appoint him as a lieutenant.
Lu Zhe appointed Sima Xin as a lieutenant first because Sima Xin was a general, and the group of people who started from Yiling with Lu Zhe basically couldn't go together. In addition, Sima Xin is a Qin person, and Lu Zhe has always had an inexplicable good impression of the Qin State, but he has to stand on an opposing position, and the appointment of Sima Xin as a lieutenant is actually to show some phenomena to some people in the Qin State.
The result of Sima Xin's reuse was that more and more Qin clans sent people to Han to develop, and at the same time, when the Qin people really couldn't survive, the direction of Qian's large-scale escape was also on the Han side.
Maybe. Lü Zhe may have misunderstood the phenomenon that occurred in the Qin State, Sima Xin did not have that much influence in the Qin State, and there were constantly clans sending their children to serve the Han State, one of which was because the Han State was thriving, and the other reason was that Lü Zhe himself was a Qin person.
For the head of the Qin State, the king of the Han State is a Qin person, so for them it is his own people, so the Han State will not reject or even hate the Qin people, and after coming to the Han State, the worst naturalized person can also be arranged to work, and those who are willing to immigrate to such as Minnan County, Nanhai County or Lingnan can also obtain land.
Of course, no one would remind Lu Zhe that he was wrong, whether it was the group of people who followed the rise from Yiling. Or the people who have been working one after another, they have all got the part that belongs to their own interests, Sima Xin has become a lieutenant, and some people are naturally unhappy, but what can be done? Sima Xin's exploits are on the bright side.
In addition, they are all accustomed to Lu Zhe liking to temporarily transfer a certain chief official to do something else, for example, when Sima Xin was about to capture Lingnan, he was picked by Zhou Wen, and after Zhou Wen arranged the attack plan, he was picked by Luo Shao. Only Tian and Lu Zhe knew how long Sima Xin could sit in the position of Tai Lieutenant, and change to a new candidate, no matter which line that candidate belonged to, it was impossible for his ass to sit on the throne of Tai Lieutenant forever. Why should they fight for it?
Interests need to be balanced, and Lu Zhe's philosophy of governing the country is like that, as long as the interests of most people can be taken care of, unless they are careerists who are not satisfied. Or someone who doesn't want to live, otherwise who wants to risk the death of the whole clan to cause trouble. They should know better than the people of the nations the temperament of the object of their allegiance, that is, Lu Zhe is not a soft-hearted lord at all, and if he does not do it, he will do it. As soon as you make a move, it is a thunderbolt.
In the same way, they firmly believed that their allegiances were angered by the actions of the nations against their own people, and that they were asking about internal affairs and the military. Then the long-awaited time for the use of troops in the north is destined to come.
“…… According to the above-mentioned situation, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Army Corps are now ready to participate in the operation. The strength of the Fifth Army Corps and the Sixth Army Corps is only about sixty percent, and all kinds of equipment are not ready, so ......" Although Sima Xin knew that Lu Zhe knew everything about military affairs, he still introduced it very responsibly for almost a quarter of an hour: "If the king orders the troops to go north, not counting the troops outside the Wehrmacht sequence, only four legions can go out. ”
Four legions is 200,000 soldiers, to be honest, this force is already very strong, but if you look at the plan arranged by the Han State, it is best to send troops to the north to send six legions to complete the first phase of the campaign, and some links in the battle plan of the two legions will form a gap.
The Wehrmacht currently has two all-cavalry regiments, the First Army and the Fifth Army, and the other ones have been reorganized many times to form a mixed formation.
According to the plan made by the Taiwei Department repeatedly according to the actual situation, after it was determined that after going north, the direction of attack of the First Army was to first sweep the northern part of Surabaya County, and then sweep towards Donghai County of Qi State, and the final target was Xue County and Dong County, which were more in the plain area, with the intention of cutting off the connection between Qi, Zhao, Yan and Tian Rong in one fell swoop, and cutting off the logistics of this coalition army that had fought countless times with the Qin army.
While the 1st Army was blitzkrieged with the speed advantage of the cavalry, the 2nd and 3rd Corps would approach Tian Rong's corps, deciding whether to fight quickly or leave the remnants to reinforce after annihilating most of the army, depending on the actual and time-sensitive situation.
The Fourth Army was used to invade the Qin State of Hanzhong and Ba County.
Of course, only using one legion to invade Qin does not mean that Han thinks Qin is easy to bully, but that Qin no longer has much strength to take care of the defense of Han, at present, nearly 300,000 of the million Qin army are fighting with the Hu people in the grasslands in the north, about 400,000 troops confront Qi, Yan, and Zhao, and Fusu has returned to Xianyang with 200,000, counting the necessary garrisons in various places, Qin cannot take out many troops to defend Han.
The Qin State of Hanzhong County did not deploy troops, after all, nominally speaking, it was a fief belonging to Lu Zhe, in other words, Hanzhong County was now a neutral zone. The Bajun Qin State deployed 30,000 people, but it was only used to defend the Qiang people on the plateau in the northwest.
In fact, no one is Han is not so easy to defend, after Lu Zhe mobilized a million troops, anyone knows that if you want to defend the Han State, you need at least one million troops to contend with it, and the Qin State has a million troops, but there are too many enemies to deal with, so it is better to use a small number of troops to fill the holes, it is better to use it in the direction of a more crisis.
It's a bit of a broken can, right? The Qin State was not fortified against the invasion of the Han State at all, and it was the Qin State Center that saw Lu Zhe's concerns.
In fact, Lu Zhe really had concerns, in the past, the Qin State could not target them in the other countries, but now it has been changed to the Qin State is finished, and the north will be fully occupied by the Hu people of the grassland, and at the same time, the countries that have colluded with the Xiongnu will also complete the division in the Qin land, so it will not be a good thing for the Han State in terms of situation or situation.
The Han Kingdom is still too young, and it has no problem with the nations that have been knocked to the ground and stood up and "resurrected", even if the countries can gather a million troops, they will not be able to hold out for too long, that is a matter determined by the national conditions.
To be honest, the soldiers of the countries are really not very good, and Lü Zhe also came to a conclusion from the war between the countries and Qin, although the coalition forces are superior, they are very problematic in terms of coordination. Under such circumstances, the larger the scope of the war fought by the coalition forces, the more discrepancies there will definitely be, and a large-scale and multi-local battle between the Han State and the Han State will take advantage of a lot of command and coordination. At the same time, because the Han State had been strong for three years, not only were the soldiers on active duty fundamentally superior to the other countries, but the subsequent replenishment of troops would also be stronger than the other countries because of the system of quarterly soldiers, so as long as there were no problems on the logistics line, defeating the coalition army would only be a matter of casualty control and time.
To put it more clearly, the Han State was not afraid of going to war with Qi Yanzhao at all, but had some faint expectations, but it was jealous of the Qin State for various reasons.
Kuaitong pondered a little and expressed his opinion, he clearly raised a doubt, although the Han State has the ability to open three fronts at the same time, but really want the power of one country to start a war with Qin, Qi, Yan, and Zhao at the same time?
In addition, although Qin, Qi, Yan, and Zhao fought for nearly two years, their consumption was far from meeting the expectations of the Han Kingdom. According to the information gathered from many parties, the total number of troops lost by the three kingdoms of Qi, Yan, and Zhao in two years should be about 500,000; The Qin side needs to deal with Qi, Yan, and Zhao in addition to the grassland Hu people, and the number of troops lost should be about 300,000.
It is basically completely crazy, Qi, Yan, and Zhao have ignored the people's livelihood in the country and continue to expand their armies, and the population advantage of the three countries is very large, with a population base of nearly 20 million, and the total strength of nearly 2.3 million is still maintained; The Qin State is also driving desperately, and the population of nearly four million has been gritting its teeth and insisting on the establishment of a million-strong army.
The Han State has always adopted a reasonable number of standing troops, even after three years of vigorous troops, it is only to maintain about 900,000 troops, even if it can continue to expand the army in the future, under the premise of ensuring that the people's livelihood does not collapse, it is already the limit to arm 200 with a population of nearly 10 million, if it exceeds this number, even if it wins the war, it will definitely be breathless in ten years.
Suddenly, Lu Zhe had to be surprised by the madness of Chinese civilization, there were about 35 million people living in this land, and the total number of soldiers could reach 5.3 million.
"If this situation is maintained, the Qin State can hold out for three years, and if Qi, Yan, and Zhao cannot win within a year, they will collapse on their own." Xiao He is talking about the collapse of the social system, after all, they are all going to fight, production can't keep up, and people can't rely on the air and northwest wind that are the specialties of the earth to live.
"So, that's madness." I don't know who secretly muttered such a sentence.
