Chapter 749: The Legion Starts

After arranging things properly, Shang Ji was temporarily idle. The outside world is in full swing, and the territory of Lequan is busy. The training of the troops, the rectification of the rectification, the Shang Ji has become the most leisurely one.

The only task was to expand the Black Armor Xuanqi, but because of the high quality of the soldiers and the abundance of materials, the expansion process was quite smooth.

And Zhao Yun and the others are much busier, not only responsible for the expansion of their own troops, but also have to come up with a reasonable troop deployment plan. This matter is not something that can be decided by standing in front of the map and patting your head, but needs to be made according to the actual situation of each place, with reference to the local mountains and rivers, the size of the population, the strategic position and even the cultural features.

Even with the assistance of Vena, many times I have to go to the field to reconnoitre, which can be described as too busy to touch the ground.

After the Battle of Lequan, the total strength of Shang Ji in the Death Continent exceeded 4 million, of which 80% were surrendered. Putting these armies in order is a laborious task.

According to the latest military plan submitted by Zhao Yun and others, the 4 million army was organized into more than 40 legions according to a legion of 100,000 people.

According to their strength and possession, these legions are divided into three types: garrison corps, field corps, and main battle corps.

As the name suggests, the garrison corps is responsible for garrisoning places, and to put it bluntly, even second-line troops. According to the proposal submitted by Zhao Yun and them, a garrison corps should have 10,000 heavy cavalry, 20,000 light cavalry, 40,000 melee infantry of all kinds, and 30,000 long-range foot soldiers of all kinds.

According to Xun's latest administrative plan, relying on the nine big cities, Jiuyi was established, and each city had a commander to oversee all the military and political affairs in the yi!

Yes, according to the discussion, it was decided that all cities in the national war continent should send a military general as the commander, regardless of civil and military affairs, and then send a scribe as a deputy.

In their respective provinces, the rulers have extremely high power. This method is of course a way to take trouble under normal circumstances, but it is very suitable in the national war on the mainland, and it can greatly improve the efficiency of mobilization and concentrate forces to do great things.

The only side effect is that the various commanders may show signs of division due to the expansion of power, but with the prestige of the merchants, it is enough to ensure that the various commanders under their command will not and dare not rebel before the end of the national war. And once the war is over and out of the territory on which they grew up, the threat of the Commanders is gone.

According to Xi Zhicai's proposal, two garrison corps were deployed in each city, one was located in the main city, and the other was left in the four directions. According to actual needs, consideration should be given to whether to deploy additional field regiments.

As for the field corps, as the name suggests, it is an elite main force that can be pulled out to fight. The garrison corps is mainly of the fourth order, with only a small number of fifth-order soldiers, while the field corps is the lowest of the fifth order, and at least thirty percent of them are the main special forces of 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 it is necessary to ensure that at least 10,000 of them are the five main cavalry.

The rest will be equipped with different special units according to the combat tendencies of the legion. For example, those who are mainly inclined to defend are equipped with giant shield soldiers, and those who tend to attack are mostly equipped with Northland crossbows or sun-shooting pawns.

According to the strategic plan, the field corps will be the backbone of the Pingzhou Army, which will be used to fight the enemy in the field, and a field corps will be the smallest combat unit and the largest tactical unit.

As for the main battle corps in the future, it can be called the elite legion, the strategic legion, etc., according to the plan, the five special cavalry, the giant axe, the giant shield, the mad knife, the heavy spear and other melee foot soldiers, the sun, the northern crossbow, the machine and other long-range troops, respectively, in the unit of 100,000, to form a strategic corps.

Originally, in the plan, there was a need to add a hundred battle phantom pawns and a star yao strong crossbow, but Zhang and Liu Yi were not there, and the two major arms could not be expanded, so they had no choice but to cross out.

According to the final plan, Pingzhou needs to build 18 garrison corps, 14 field corps, and 13 main battle corps (there are two black armor cavalry...... ), plus the Flying Phoenix Fire Rider, Bloodthirsty Tiger Ben, Phoenix Dance Guard, Shura Guard, and other independent legions whose numbers are strictly limited.

There are a total of 43 reserve regiments and four independent regiments under the whole army, plus some other auxiliary arms, and the total strength of the whole army is as high as 4.5 million!

Of course, planning is on paper for the time being......

The garrison corps is okay, it only needs to adjust the forces distributed in all directions, and then reorganize it slightly.

The field corps is a bit difficult, and the configuration of special troops, the selection and transfer of the commander of the field corps, etc., are all troublesome. The fourteen field regiments need 1.4 million fifth-order soldiers, and the soldiers are quite tight.

As for the thirteen main legions, this is even more exaggerated. After searching all the surrendered troops, I couldn't find so many high-level troops that met the requirements. Other special classes can make do with it, but the Black Armor Xuanqi requires a minimum of six orders, and all the sixth-order troops can be drained 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 needs to be selected from the huge number of fourth-order soldiers, and then trained as a fifth-order soldier.

This is also a very challenging task for the Pingzhou Army, which has a large number of top generals.

The only fortunate thing is that the training efficiency of the non-commissioned soldiers in the National War Continent is three times that of the normal situation, which makes it possible to complete this task.

Shang Ji's plan was to complete the training of the Shu army in a month and a half, and if the situation allowed, it could even be postponed until two months later. It's just that this depends on the situation, once the surrounding countries take the lead in completing the unification of the national regions, they will definitely not let the merchants train their troops in a good way.

"Lord, General Yanhuang Chen Mo is here!"

Just after coming out of the barracks and training a group of black-armored Xuan cavalry again, the attendants suddenly came to report.

"Chen Mo? Let him wait for me in the living room! ”

There has always been a liaison officer of Yan and Huang in the Shang army, who is responsible for intelligence communication between the two sides. And in this case, if Chen Mo is also sent over, there must be something more important to discuss.

"General!"

Seeing Shang Ji come in, Chen Mo immediately got up and saluted. After several years of experience, Chen Mo seems to have matured a lot, and even has a mustache at the corner of his mouth.

"How is General Chen doing?"

"Thanks to the general, it's been going well recently!"

Seeing the deceased, Shang Ji was also very happy. Although Chen Mo had a different purpose in the Shang Ji army, he provided a lot of help to Shang Ji in fact. Jingluo Xianbei is Chen Mo's suggestion, which is also the beginning of the rise of Shangji.

The two were polite for a while, and Shang Ji began to lead the topic to the point: "General Chen, Yan Huang sent General Chen over, but is there anything wrong?" ”

Chen Mo was not hypocritical, nodded and said: "The general is as fast as ever, Feng sent me, and I really have a request for the general." ”

"Tell me."

"First of all, I would like to congratulate the general for becoming the first player to capture the 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: "Presumably, the generals also know that the giant city of the Death Continent is heavily guarded, with deep walls and crossbow arrows. The cost of siege is quite high. According to our intelligence, the U.S. launched a strong attack on a giant city in their territory, suffering nearly three million casualties, and even exposed a hole card to take the city in the end. ”

"Oh? The U.S. has also captured the giant city? So they're about to be unified? ”

Chen Mo suddenly laughed, and gloated: "The United States attacked the giant city, and I wanted to be the first force to take the giant city, but I didn't expect to be preempted by the general. In addition, because of the strong attack, the players in the United States suffered heavy losses, and it is impossible to attack the giant city in a short time. ”

Shang Ji also smiled when he heard this, as the biggest competitor, all Chinese people in the United States would be happy if they were unlucky.

"What do you mean?"

Chen Mo clenched his fists and arched his hand: "Pingzhou is well-armed, and it is even more unique among the siege equipment. A few days ago, the city-breaking dragon cannon used by General Huang Zhong and General Liu Meng during the siege of the city shocked the entire Huaxia District. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Mo paused: "In the next order, it is to borrow troops from the general!" ”

"Oh? Borrowed soldiers? How to borrow? ”

Seeing that Shang Ji did not refuse on the spot, Chen Mo was even happier, and hurriedly explained: "I heard that there is a special army under the general's command, called the Mechanic Soldier, and we want to borrow this army temporarily.

Of course, it would be better if heavy equipment such as the Burst Torch Stone Cart, the City Breaker Dragon Cannon, and other heavy equipment could be lent to us temporarily. During the lease period, each soldier was paid a rent of three silver per day. As for the siege equipment, according to the size, from 10 gold to 100 gold per day per plane, if there is damage to the soldiers or equipment during the lease period, as well as the consumption and other Yan Huang will be compensated according to the market price! ”

"During this period, your army and our army formed a coalition army, and once the city was breached, the national war points obtained were distributed in full accordance with the rules of the system. General, what do you think? ”

After speaking, Chen Mo looked at Shang Ji with a look of hope, waiting for Shang Ji's reply.

Shang Ji pondered for a while, the conditions given by Yan Huang were quite favorable, and for the next period of time, the Shang Ji army was mainly the whole army, and the pure offensive army of the Mechanic Army was also idle, and it was okay to temporarily lease it to Yan Huang.

"Yes!"

After a moment of silence, Shang Ji spoke slowly.

Chen Mo's face was overjoyed, and he was about to thank him, but he heard Shang Ji continue: "I could have lent you all the armourers, and temporarily lent you 200 Burst Torch Stone Carts, forty City-Breaking Dragon Cannons, and even some additional support for some of your high-level troops. ”

Chen Mo immediately calmed down when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What about the general's conditions?" ”

"First of all, all movements of our troops during the lend-lease period must be carried out with the consent of our accompanying generals, and there shall be no coercion."

"Of course, the general even if he doesn't say it. We are a coalition army, although our army is outnumbered, but the coalition army is a coalition army, and all actions will be discussed. ”

"Secondly, after conquering the giant city, do your best to capture the city lord alive, and once you succeed, hand over the city lord to me. Ben will pay an additional 1,000,000 gold to your army, and as long as you agree to this condition, the army can set off at any time! ”

That's right, Shang Ji hit the other three giant city city lords with his idea!

The city lord of Lequan City is Kuang Zhang, and the other three giant city lords should have similar theories to Kuang Zhang, Shang Ji is very curious about them, although there is little hope of succeeding in capturing them, but it does not prevent Shang Ji from trying.
