Chapter 2397 Expansion

phone-reading

At this time, people up and down Chutianmen, whether they are outside or at home, are all frightened by this incident. For them, this incident in front of them is unbelievable. When such a thing happened, they didn't believe that such a thing would happen. Chutianmen is not a big sect, but sometimes it has a certain right to speak, especially the dozen or so people around them. Within the sect, they are all pretty good. Usually, not only do these sects come to ask about anything, even the imperial court of the Western Empire or the Magician’s Union will come to ask. It can be said that they are all good They are relatively face-saving, but it is because of such a face-saving incident that they have lost face now. What face are they talking about at this time? Even their sect is gone, and their boss is dead. Many people thought that the masters of Cao's House would be a short board, but this incident made them all understand that they have some strengths in this regard. The array and the help of the blocking crossbow are no longer considered a shortcoming of others, and they are still doing very well, at least for now, it is very good, otherwise, it would be impossible for so many masters This will not work, and the other dozen or so sects around are also honest at this time. Although the Cao's House has suffered a lot in the face of Chu Tianmen's attack, the dozen or so sects around have also come to fight with Cao immediately. The people from a commercial firm have negotiated peace talks to see if there will be room for them to live in the future. Of course, even if there is no room for them, they can just migrate directly, and they will not have any ideas. For them, Chutianmen is It's so huge that it's impossible to beat it. http://www.vodtw.com In the past, Chutianmen was also relatively strong relying on their abilities, and often gave them I didn't want to abide by the overlord rule or something at the beginning. But later, there is no other way, no, if you don’t abide by it. No problem, our people will kill you directly, let you know how powerful we are, now you can see the current situation clearly, if you want us to do nothing, just let it go, that is It was absolutely impossible, and the people from Cao's House also started negotiating with them, which was actually very simple. How did you support the Western Empire to fight against us in the past? Now you can support us as much as you want. Of course, if you put in a bit of effort in the past, it will be doubled now, why? You don’t seem to be very willing about this matter, and that’s okay, we’ll just go and get it ourselves. The raid on Chutianmen’s headquarters has directly kept the two regiments of Cao’s Commercial Bank busy for several days, but There are just too many things in there. Don't talk about transporting away at this time, even if they are all counted, it is not so easy. What we have to do now is to quickly register and make a list. As for the transportation issue, let’s wait until there are enough airships on it. If there are not enough airships, other things will not be easy to talk about After all, everyone is very aware of this issue. The time spent on land transportation is too much. The most important reason is the issue of safety. Now the territory of the Western Empire can be said to be full of bandits. . Whether it's those who ran out of the army, or some tough guys in the local area. Their lives are not easy now, and the days of bandits in peacetime will be good. In such a war-torn era, do you think that bandits can have a lot of money? That's impossible, and the days of bandits are not very easy, that's why the people from Cao's House of Firm were not in a hurry to transport all these things out.

Instead, after checking clearly, he directly transported it away with an airship. If Li Cong was here, it would be easier to handle, and he could just throw it into his senior sister in his body, and there is no need to waste so much In terms of time, it was ransacked by Chu Tianmen's own people for a while before, and many things inside have been lost, but the people in Cao's House are not all free, and after a while, these people are basically You can get some very important things back. These things don’t belong to you in the first place, and it’s easy to get them back. Li Wei took the time to go over and have a look. It can be said that Chu Tianmen’s assets It really surprised him. In his opinion, it should be no problem for such a sect to have some assets, but having so many assets made him feel unbelievable. Not to mention other things, just talk about some precious precious metals What's the matter, here is an astronomical figure. Even if all the low-grade spirit stones used are exchanged for silver, it is only a small amount compared with here. There is no need to say anything else. There are too many savings. If it is really all exchanged for gold, it is estimated that hundreds of thousands of people will be transported here for several months. It is impossible to complete this war. This war is really good. After buying so many things, everyone in the East Route Army got thirty taels of silver, which is more than one billion silver. It's not very realistic to send everything first, even if I want to integrate the atmosphere inside the army, it is absolutely impossible to do things like that, as long as the soldiers are a little richer than ordinary people , but they can't be too rich. If they are really too rich, it is estimated that they will not continue to follow them out to kill the enemy in the future.

In fact, the actual effect of this war is not very great, and the place where Chu Tianmen is located is not very prosperous. It can be said that many people don’t go to that place very often. If the people from the Chutianmen come to that place, their heads may fall off. It’s not that group of people from Chutianmen who are domineering, saying that ordinary people are not qualified to come here. If they really come, they But they will pick off their heads, now it’s all over, the people around are all happy, you are all very powerful people? What are you kidding? Why haven't we seen how powerful you are? In the past, you were indeed very powerful when facing us ordinary people, but it seems that you are not very useful when you see the people of Cao's House. Look at yours It looks like you know what kind of goods you are all, and you can't hold on for a day. And your sects have all been killed, the common people have another misunderstanding, your sect is so big. When you first came up, of course, you wouldn't let your leader go out to fight, it would definitely be some elder or guardian among you who went up. If you just let the head of the sect go up, then it's nothing. Since it's time for your head to take action, that means a problem, that is, all of your people have been killed. Those of you are already dead, and your whole family will be wiped out, and the surrounding local government officials are even more unwilling to defend here. They may have heard how powerful the army of Cao's Commercial Company is, but the people in Chutianmen still know it very well. They are all very powerful, and such people can't hold on. , then other people must be even worse. When something like this happens, we continue to resist. Isn't this a brain problem? They had already realized that they were going to run away, but this matter made them all more appraised. If they don't leave at this time. It is estimated that there will be no chances in the future. Immediately, the city owners in the county city hurriedly handed over this matter to their deputy, and they will go to the provincial capital to report their work. Do I still need to explain this matter to you? What I have to do is to run away, but no one would say that stupidly. If I really said that, my head would be killed by those people even if I went to the provincial capital Yes, but now it's a different matter. I wasn't there when the city was broken, and I was looking for a few people to act out some dramas of killing oneself and becoming a benevolent. The governor would not really let himself die. There will definitely be some obstacles, and then I will be able to survive well. But is the deputy city lord's brain so difficult to use? Normally, besides you, I am the biggest person in this city. Of course, I will explain the matter after you leave. Of course, everyone needs to go together. I absolutely can’t leave you running away. The deputy city lord also arranged this way, but he is not as lucky as the city lord. He can only create a little emergency by himself Come here, if the city lord is in a good mood, he will take care of his deputy city lord before leaving. If something goes wrong, just come to me, but not most people will do things like that, some are selfish Everyone hopes that their deputy city lord will die here. We have been officials in the same dynasty for so many years. Who has no other people in their hands? Maybe it will be uncomfortable to go. Of course, this kind of thing must be considered very clearly, and it must not be neglected. Otherwise, it will be a bad day for yourself in the future. They all have their own reasons. From their point of view, these things can be done that way. If you don’t do it this way, it’s your own problem. Everyone else does it this way. If you want to be different, it’s you Don't get us all involved in your own affairs, we don't have so much time here to accompany you, this is the kind of dead-headed person, we all have our own ideas.

At the beginning, Cao's House of Merchant's attacks were all along the coast, and the number of attackers there was still guaranteed, but now that they have entered the inland area, the number of people is not enough. According to some divisions of the Western Empire, There are about 20 to 30 counties in a province. Each county has four or five counties, and there are seven or eight counties in the large ones. These need to divide the troops. At the beginning Naturally, there are not so many places waiting for him to go, but it is different now. Many people feel that things are not that simple, and the troops must be divided. There are only tens of millions of people, although they are fighting alone The ability is still good, but it is better to be careful in such a riotous place. If they are really surrounded, their heads will not be made of steel and iron. After all, this place belongs to the Southern Empire. In the inland area, in this place, the people of the Southern Empire don't have any good feelings for the guys of Cao's House of Commerce. They are trying their best to think about how to let you die. Immediately started a new reform plan. In addition to continuing to add 20 million troops to the eastern battlefield, Cao's firm's army also began to implement wartime establishments in the western battlefield. Some of the normal establishments are no longer suitable for the needs of the barbarians on the battlefield, and now a new set of establishments is necessary.

According to the wartime organization of Cao's House, a province can only have an army of one division. In the past, the population of one division of the Marine Corps was absolutely not enough, so the original three-three system principle was disrupted. All of them have become the principle of the five-five system. Only in this way can an army with more strength be formed. The three-three system can be said to make them feel uncomfortable. Before, Li Cong turned these into The reason for the three-three system is because there are a large number of officers who need to be trained, but there are not so many positions in the army for them to contact, so something like the three-three system was created. For them, as long as they can Getting a position is already a very good thing. Now basically it is almost considered practice. Many people are already excellent officers. Of course, they can go out and become higher-level officers. With them staying in this super powerful army, they will be able to obtain There will be more victories and so on. After four days of division of labor by the senior military department of Cao's House, the expanded military establishment is finally released.

First of all, there is a class-level establishment. Cao's House of Commerce had already expanded this establishment at the beginning. There are 20 people, and each class has a Super Lotus Nu. There are two grenadiers, one for the squad leader and one for the deputy squad leader. All of them are combatants, and two soldiers have to be assigned to deliver ammunition during the war. The actual combatants are only 18 people. If they are all together in a large army, there is no problem, but according to the Cao family According to the latest instructions from the firm, the class unit of Cao’s firm will build a bunker or something like that in one or a few nearby villages where there are more concentrated places, so that there will not be enough people to see them, and even Still relatively few. Therefore, the senior management of Cao's House decided to increase each squad to thirty people and add one blocking crossbow. The blocking force occupies two people, and the transport personnel three people. The last combatants are twenty-five people. Their role is to guard the place they need to guard. They must maintain the current situation before the reinforcements arrive. If they can hold it, the reinforcements can basically come over quickly. That's it, ordinary soldiers are all first-level fighters, and the squad leader, deputy squad leader and snipers are second-level fighters. This is another rigid rule above, mainly because the number of officers attrition during the war is really too much Well, if the officers are more capable, the possibility of their sacrifice will be much lower. In this way, even if something happens, as long as the officer is still there, other things can't be regarded as anything. This is another meaning of Cao's House, and it looks pretty good now.

The squad-level units are all stationed at the village-level administrative units. In addition to them, they will also find 10 to 20 local people to form a security team. Their role is to solve problems that are inconvenient for the regular army. Of course, you can't do some unreasonable things, but some people are hard to say, for example, many people still think about the Western Empire, and don't want to live a good life under the management of Cao's house, then What else is there to say about such a person? Of course, let all these security personnel go to his home to discuss some issues. Just go out and cut it. The current society is not very stable. If these people continue to make trouble, we don’t need to live another life. We just solve their problems every day, the security team It will definitely be banned in the future, and what they do now is to do some dirty and messy work temporarily. If the people from Cao's House of Commerce come to do this work, it will not be very good for the common people in the future Let me tell you, if there are any bad things among these people at that time, just kill them first. Anyway, at that time, their usefulness will basically be useless. It is also a normal thing to kill them directly. Do you really think that the people of Cao's House need your help? That's absolutely impossible, and I don't even look at the origins of each of you. You are simply a bunch of rubbish. You people still want to come here with us. I really don't know what to say about you. , You can tell by the way you look, you people must not have thought about this issue clearly. But what they want is what they don't understand. If everyone in the security team understands it very well, they won't do things that Cao's business is not easy to do. That will give those who want to rebel a very warm breeding ground, and in the end it will be the people of Cao's firm who will suffer. They would never allow such a thing to happen, so they had to find someone with a simple mind and well-developed limbs, otherwise no one would do it.

The level of the township is also a very important place. Apart from the ordinary people, the people living in this place are some landlords and rich people. Their homes all have nursing homes. The nursing homes of these people usually They all do what servants are supposed to do. You can't let such people exist. Generally speaking, one or two squads of soldiers can be stationed in one or two villages, but what needs to be stationed in a township is a platoon-level unit. The platoon-level unit has 5 squads of 150 combatants. In addition, there must be two platoon leaders and deputy platoon leaders, and 4 more guns are needed to shoot away. At the same time, in addition to those inside the class, there is also a separate transportation team with more than ten people, mainly because The reason for the mortar, this thing eats shells very well. If it is really on the battlefield, it is obviously not enough to rely on those people in the class to transport this thing, and sometimes such problems will arise. The area where the platoon is located is just on the main road of traffic in the township. It is enough to station one squad in the township. The remaining four squads all have their own functions. They can be in the town, but they need to set off immediately when they encounter something. They need to provide quick support. Their existence is the guarantee of the soldiers in the village below. If they arrive early One minute. Maybe the whole battle situation is different, if they go late. It is very likely that some other things will happen, and these things are changing rapidly. So the platoon rank is very important. Of course, the higher authorities also authorized them to form a local security team of about 30 people and a transport team of 20 people. In principle, these people would not give them any weapons, but Some of the cold weapons in their own homes can be used. Anyway, they just do some very simple work, and there is no such thing as danger. Generally speaking, about one company of troops in a town is enough. , a platoon is specially stationed around the town, and the rest of the troops are all dispersed to the villages below. In order to strengthen the control of the town, the company headquarters is set up inside the town, which is why there is a traffic in a town. Soldiers are stationed on the road.

The township level can be said to be a very important level, mainly because most people in this area live in rural areas, and there are also people in cities, but most of them are relatively honest, the most important thing is that they I have also seen how the people of Cao's House attacked the city, so they will not have any rebellion and the like, and there is no problem with their brains. At other times, they can say slow down , but it’s not slow at all now. If you don’t believe in your army, then I believe you should be very clear about Chutianmen. Those guys in Chutianmen didn’t survive at all. They are not good , go fart, how long has it been to dominate our side, but look at how people have come here for thousands of years, even the imperial court is not a bird, but what is going on now, it is not directly by Cao's firm People have been killed, I heard that their sect is gone, I really don't know what to say about such a thing, these people have no skills? That's impossible, it's just that their opponents are more capable than them, and this is one of the main reasons why those guys didn't beat them one by one. It won't be the current situation. Since the Chutianmen can't do it, how can we rebel? It's not fun to go to that one. Although Cao's House of Commerce has occupied this place now, our life is not good How good, but thinking that compared with losing your head, you are living a pretty good life now, so don't go out and toss casually, your own head is still relatively precious, if you are a little careless, in the future this It's a lot of fun, it's better not to be like this, it's better to be honest than anything else.

There will be even more people stationed in the county seat. I just talked about company-level units. A company has five platoons of 750 combatants, in addition to 50 company guard platoons, and 20 civilian personnel. Because at this level of the company, there are a lot of documents that need to be processed, which is completely different from before. The units below all need some combat personnel, which is not enough here. In addition, there is a fire support unit. They include 65 people. There are 5 mortars and two 75mm mountain guns below. It is the heavy firepower within the company, generally speaking. There is no problem with small-scale conflicts. They still need to form a security brigade in the local area. The number of people is about 300. It sounds nice to call it a security brigade. It's the same, they are on the same level as those below, and some bad things always need someone to do it, right? If such an army is not formed well, don't think about having a good reputation there in the future.

The number of a company is about 900 to 1,000 people, but they also have a security brigade and a transportation brigade to help themselves. A total of about 1,700 people can be mobilized, which can almost give a township a good governance, plus those people below. A township has about two companies of troops. Townships in this area of ​​the Western Empire generally have 70,000 to 80,000 people. This number of troops is still a bit stretched, but not all people want to rebel. Some ordinary people would not go out to make trouble because they thought they could live a good life, and they were all frightened by the thunderous tactics of Cao's House, and they were all afraid that they would lose their heads. Sometimes it is better not to do so many things. The current life is very good, and the township level has been deduced many times. As long as it is not a riot of more than 10,000 people, they can be easily suppressed. If there are tens of thousands of riots, they can also rely on the built fortifications and the like, and they can be preserved at the end. It is also a good way to wait for reinforcements from above. It is going to be desperate, and the senior management of Cao's Commercial Bank does not advocate this.

The county level needs to be guarded at the regiment level. According to the principle of the five-five system, a battalion has about 8,000 people. This is already a very large establishment. A regiment is 50,000 people. This number is already very large. It's big, of course it doesn't need so many troops to garrison a county, because this is a huge waste, but half a regiment inside the county is still necessary, and there are about 100,000 to 150,000 people in the county. , most of them are people with some family background. If there is nothing in the family, it is impossible to live in the county. The prices here are much higher than those in the countryside. Living here You can go to the village to live in the village for a few months a month, which is relatively conservative. The soldiers of the Cao’s Commercial Company need to pay attention to the veterans of the former Western Empire. They had a lot of rights at the time, but because of the defeat of the Western Empire and the occupation of Cao's House of Commerce, their rights were basically gone. Although the people of Cao's House of Trade said they could guarantee their personal safety, But under the current chaotic conditions, it’s just a matter of saying that. At the beginning, everyone still believed in this matter, but then they understood that things were not as simple as they thought. If it is really similar to what you think, Cao's House of Merchant will not make such a big move to change the organization of its army. You must know that this matter cannot be done in a short while, and it will take a lot of time to perfect. This problem is the same as it is now. Although the plan has already come down, a relatively big problem is to increase the army and merge some numbers. This cannot be solved in a day or two, except for these retired soldiers. Besides, the other ones are the family servants of the rich man’s family. In the past, being a servant in some rich man’s family was something you could show off. It’s more face-saving than getting rich by yourself in the countryside. Yes, of course, this kind of thing is just what they think it is. Many people still don’t think much of them. They feel that this is just a dog’s leg. What’s there to show off, just like you Yes, I really don't know what to say to you guys. There is no freedom at all, just a more advanced dog, does it really treat itself as a human being? I don't even look at what you are all like. Although they don't have a very good reputation among the common people, the military intelligence department of Cao's Commercial Bank said so. Their physical fitness and combat skills are good, and it can be said that they are stronger than those retired soldiers. That is, after receiving the news, Li Wei asked the people on the front line to pay attention to these guys. Sixty of these, if they are all united, there may be an army in the end, and the target of this army is likely to be the Cao family firm. After all, their rights are in the hands of Cao's Commercial Bank, so in addition to monitoring them, another action of Cao's Commercial Bank is to use them for the security brigade and transportation brigade established, and divide them in this way. You guys are actually pretty good. Some people will say that this is a disguised form of gathering them all. In fact, the senior management of Cao’s Commercial Bank also has their own considerations. It’s not impossible to do things like this. These people united one by one, and it is much better for them to be in the open than to hide. It would be nice to have something to discover if they were all hiding, but if not. This thing is really a bit difficult to handle.

The size of a brigade has to be more than 300,000 people. The people of Cao's House are absolutely not capable of placing a brigade in a county. Every county in the front has a regiment's strength, so in Juncheng their It means that it is enough to put a group, as long as the traffic is controlled, the number of people in an area is limited, as long as they are not allowed to unite, they will not have Other things happened, and the person who said this plan was fully affirmed. The main reason is that this is on the ground of the Western Empire. It was not that troublesome when they took the Southern Empire back then. The people in the Southern Empire didn't feel that they were going to resist at all. From their point of view, the people who followed the Cao's firm were much better off than those who followed the Western Empire. Many of them are willing to hang out with the people from the Cao's House of Commerce, of course, mainly because the people from the Cao's House of Commerce give them good treatment and so on. This method can be used in the Southern Empire, but But it cannot be used on the side of the Western Empire. If it is used on the side of the Western Empire, it is estimated that those things are meat buns and dogs. They will never return. In the end, those who should rebel against themselves will come out, mainly because of the two sides. The degree of hatred is completely different. Although the people in Cao's House are more vicious, the people in the Southern Empire are also used to it. They are very clear about this matter, as long as they don't provoke Cao's House As for the people who are involved, their viciousness has nothing to do with me. If I can report to them, I guess I can get a lot of silver rewards. People in the Southern Empire did not give such a thing before. Mine, why can't I do things for the people of Cao's House now? They really made my life better. If I don't say anything else, I should also do things for the people of Cao's House. , or do I still have a conscience.

A large military base will be built in every province. This military base is not only a supply point for the province's army weapons and ammunition, but also an important base for external relations. In the future, recruits will be trained here. Yes, the construction site is around the provincial capital, and the above has already said that there will be no changes in the army within a month, but after a month, each division will have a brigade of troops to go out. The senior sisters outside are still very big. It is impossible to stay here because of the land of these dozen provinces. As long as those so-called security teams are established, some local security forces All of them will be good, because the people of Cao's Commercial Company naturally don't know so clearly about some situations in this place, but it's different for the people of the security team. They are all native-born guys. No one is more familiar with the place than they are.

At first, many people said that the division should not be set up in the provincial capital, because the provincial capital will be the fastest-growing place in the future. If there are too many soldiers here, it will not be very good for the economy, but from another On the one hand, it is precisely these soldiers who have money in their hands. It cannot be said that it is a waste of time, but everything in this city is rotten. Development is not so easy, so now it is better to let most of the army stay in the city. Most of the bureaucrats are gone, but those with crafts are still in the city and want to live. If not, it depends on whether you have the ability to get the silver out of the hands of these soldiers. If you can't, it means your own incompetence, and you deserve to be hungry.

All these actions of Cao's House of Commerce were known to the people of the Western Empire, and they were also dumbfounded. What is Cao's House of Commerce going to do? This is to be stationed here for a long time, and they are sweating all over their heads when they think of it. Isn't it necessary to sign some agreement with the Western Empire after hanging around here for a while and then get out? Why are they trying to create so many things now? They are doing this one by one, which means that the land here will not be theirs in the future. Everyone is dumbfounded by this idea. They all feel that the Cao family The people in the commercial firm gave them too many surprises, but they were only surprised, not happy. This also made many people in the Western Empire feel that the empire was about to change, and whether the Western Empire would follow the Southern Empire in the future. Just like the empire, there is no such thing. They all feel uncomfortable when they think of this place. How could it be like this? They thought that it would be a lifetime thing for them to get mixed up with a public minister. Now it seems that it is not that simple. things. It seems that I have to find a way out for myself, otherwise I will suffer a lot in the future. (to be continued)
