My life skills in Daming Liver
Chapter 455 General and Staff
Before time travel, Su Ze was a graduate student engaged in historical research. He established a staff system in the southeast simply because he read too many time travel novels.
Many time-travel novels have a staff system. Su Ze also established a staff system in order to train young officers before starting the army.
When Su Ze started to establish the staff system, he trained staff officers as young reserve officers. They were mainly placed beside him to learn knowledge of military art and assist in completing some daily military management tasks. They were equivalent to Lang Wei beside the emperor in the classical era. Or the knights' retinue around the Western generals.
But as Su Ze established the staff system in the southeast, he finally understood why the staff system was the beginning of modern military changes.
Before the staff, fighting in the classical era could be said to be a metaphysics, and fighting was an art.
The success or failure of a war depends on the personal ability and charisma of a general. A powerful general can create military miracles by controlling the battle situation and his own personal charisma.
But after the establishment of the staff system, fighting is still a metaphysics.
In many battles in modern wars that determine the success or failure of the war, winning or losing is still very mysterious.
But this is metaphysics mixed with science.
From this time on, fighting became a skill rather than an art.
Through the staff system, the general's personal ability can still determine the direction of the war. In the historical timeline that Su Ze traveled through, just after the emergence of the staff system, it has been repeatedly demonstrated that an outstanding person can lead the army to create amazing military miracles.
But the staff system also ensures the lower limit of an army.
Su Ze has been cramming various courses into the army and naval schools, including the most cutting-edge courses in the southeast.
Geography, surveying and mapping, meteorology, psychology, arithmetic, and logistics.
In this battle of Xuzhou, Su Ze's role on the front line was to act as a mascot, and Chen Lin did not make too many decisions.
It is the staff office of the fifth brigade that actually formulates strategic plans, analyzes enemy intelligence, and arranges logistics supplies.
To be fair, the staff of the Fifth Brigade, including Song Qianqian, are not as good at leading troops as Chen Lin. If they are allowed to command a battalion individually, it is okay, but it is impossible to command an expanded brigade of 10,000 people.
However, these young staff officers relied on the staff system and unity and cooperation to arrange the entire fifth brigade in a stable manner. Chen Lin, the brigade commander, had little chance to command on the battlefield.
The staff system turned war into a science.
This is a science that integrates natural sciences, humanities and social sciences into the military to quantitatively analyze war.
When the staff analyze the battlefield, it is no longer the mysterious "military morale is available" and "morale is ready to fight" in the past, but is specific to whether the soldiers have had a good rest recently, whether they have had enough to eat, how many miles they can walk with a heavy load, and which unit The renovated army can be put into the battlefield, and we will wait for these specific quantitative analyses.
When analyzing the battlefield situation, it is no longer a simple abstract concept such as "the right time, the right place and the right people", but to assess the geography of the battlefield, predict the weather and wind direction on the battlefield, and analyze the extreme situations that may occur on the battlefield. Plan and develop detailed combat plans.
When analyzing intelligence, we do not simply analyze the enemy generals rigidly, but start analyzing from the enemy generals' previous command style and psychology, and predict the enemy's actions based on political and economic factors.
These have been turned into scientific processes through various analyses, not to mention more professional logistics and troop dispatching.
With the support of the development of Southeast Mathematical Sciences, logistics and logistics have all become quantifiable reports and timetables. The number of soldiers transported by rail cars and their arrival time, the number of logistics supplies transported by vehicles and the loading and unloading time have all become a definite number.
From receiving intelligence on troop mobilization in local positions, to analyzing possible locations where the enemy may attack, to arranging reinforcements and transporting logistics supplies, all of this can be automated and as precise as a machine.
In this kind of passive defense operation, the brigade commander Chen Lin only has the role of a mascot to comfort the soldiers.
With the staff department, it does not mean that generals are not important. Outstanding commanders in World War I and World War II could still completely change the trend of the war.
The emergence of the staff system has even magnified the role of the commander, so that generals do not need to be immersed in trivial matters such as tactical arrangements, but focus more on controlling the entire battle situation.
But Su Ze, the general staff established based on online novels, has indeed changed the tactical system of the Southeast and greatly raised the lower limit of the army.
That's why Su Ze summoned all the senior leaders of the southeastern military in a big way to return to Nanjing before the Chinese New Year to listen to Song Qian, the chief of staff of the fifth brigade, talk about how the staff office of the Xuzhou President's Committee operates.
This is also to make all brigades in the southeast realize the importance of the staff system and cultivate more staff talents.
Song Qian stood in the center of the podium and swallowed.
These people are all the founding fathers of the Southeast Army, and each of them is older than their own brigade commander.
He looked helplessly at Chen Lin, who had already pretended to be dead and sat on the seat under the podium.
The brigade commander is so unloyal!
Song Qian took a breath. It seemed that the brigade commander was unreliable, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and start talking.
Song Qian opened the battle summary he brought back from Xuzhou and began to talk about what his Fifth Brigade Staff Office did in the Xuzhou battle.
Everyone under the podium listened attentively, and everyone was taking notes with a pen. Song Qian's experience is of great reference value to everyone.
Su Ze looked at Chen Qian on the podium with a smile. He knew very well that five-star generals like Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang were rare in history.
Lu Er continued to send news from the grassland. After Yu Dayou occupied Wuyuan City, he continued to attack. The army commanding Wuyuan City had become the banner of the Han people on the grassland and occupied half of the Hetao area.
While the southeast side was still studying how to use grenades in war, Yu Dayou quickly found a method suitable for using grenades on the grassland, and trained corresponding combat troops, beating An Da's troops into fear.
What is a divine general? This is what a divine general is.
Qi Jiguang did not return to Nanjing this time. The soldiers he recruited in Guangxi have begun training and have participated in several counter-insurgency campaigns against the Guangxi Yaozhai rebellion.
Qi Jiguang adapted to local conditions, dispersed the use of musketeers during mountain operations, and proposed the concept of fire coverage.
Qi Jiguang keenly discovered that when fighting in the mountains, the musketeers in formation would waste bullets. When encountering enemies rushing from all directions, the formation would become even more cumbersome.
Qi Jiguang broke up the musket phalanx and turned it into smaller skirmisher units that cooperated with each other.
For mountain operations, Qi Jiguang also equipped the soldiers with new equipment.
In addition to muskets, each infantryman is also equipped with grenades and Molotov cocktails, and is equipped with a lightweight machete that can cut thorns and vines. Even the military uniforms have been changed from the eye-catching blue in the jungle to one closer to vegetation. green.
Su Ze was also lucky enough to "collect" two great generals like Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang.
But the staff system can be widely copied and promoted, and the staff office is also a good place to train young military talents.
Song Qian made the report seriously. The more he explained, the calmer he became and began to tell all the experiences he had summarized.
Then Su Ze announced that he would start answering questions. Song Qian answered various questions raised by the generals one by one. Although some of the answers were not satisfactory, his calmness made everyone nod to him.
Li Yangong originally wanted to participate in this training, but his wife Danyun was going to give birth in the next year, so his boss forced him to go back to accompany the childbirth and not allow him to participate in this training.
Li Yangong was scratching his head at home because he failed to participate in the training. An angry Danyun kicked him out of the house.
Li Yangong was wandering on the street and soon heard a familiar voice.
"Brother Li!"
Li Yangong looked back and saw that the young man holding the horse turned out to be a familiar figure. He quickly stepped forward and pulled him and said:
"Brother Gao! Why are you back?"
This young man was Gao Wuguan who was stationed at Dagu Bastion. The two had been separated for a long time since the last Dagu hot air balloon experiment. Although they still communicated through letters, Li Yangong was still very surprised to meet again after a long absence.
"Let's go! Go back to my house!"
Li Yangong took Gao Wuguan and returned to Li Mansion.
Although Danyun was fierce, she still gave Li Yangong face in front of outsiders. When she heard that Li Yangong's friends came to visit, Danyun served tea and water with a big belly, which made Li Yangong feel a little guilty.
Seeing the "harmony" between his best friend and his wife, Gao Wuguan sighed and said, "No wonder everyone says it's good to have a family."
When Li Yangong thought about being kicked out of the house, he quickly said: "The governor's new book said that marriage is like a siege. People inside want to get out and people outside want to come in. There is no saying that sugar cane is sweet at both ends. .”
Li Yangong asked quickly:
"Why is Brother Gao back?"
The garrison at Dagu Bastion is rotating. Both officers and soldiers will return to the southeast every six months to replace a new batch of soldiers.
However, Gao Wuguan kept applying to stay in Dagu, so he did not return to Nanjing during the previous rotation.
It was not yet time for rotation, but Gao Wuguan returned from Dagu, and Li Yangong couldn't help but asked curiously.
"It was the Grand Governor who gave me a special leave and asked me to come back."
Gao Wukan said to his friend: "I want to go to my hometown in Henan."
Li Yangong suddenly realized that after Gao Wuguan's father Gao Gong resigned as prime minister, he returned to his hometown in Xinzheng, Henan to write books behind closed doors.
But Henan is now under the control of the Ming court. Will Gao Wuguan return to his hometown in Henan?
Li Yangong said quickly: "Is it safe? I heard that the situation in Henan is also very tense."
After Chen Yiqin, the governor of Henan, took office, he organized and trained new troops while establishing new affairs, and also launched a large-scale battle in Henan.
If Gaowuguan wants to cross the confrontation area and enter Henan, he will definitely have to take great risks.
Gao Wuguan lowered his head and said: "My mother wrote a letter asking me to come back this time. She wanted me to persuade my father to come to Nanjing, but I don't think my father would agree, but a son of a man must persuade me." .”
Li Yangong was silent.
When Nanjing was occupied by Southeast, Gao Gong's parents separated. Gao Wuguan's mother and son stayed in Nanjing to serve Southeast, and Gao Gong went north to become a cabinet minister of the Ming Dynasty.
Now that Gao Wuguan's mother is still in Nanjing, it is indeed normal for her son to go back to his hometown to persuade her husband to come to Nanjing for a reunion.
But Gao Wuguan knew his father's character. Gao Gong was stubborn and had a teacher-student relationship with Emperor Longqing, so it was absolutely impossible for him to come to Nanjing.
Gao Wuguan shook his head and said: "It is a great blessing that my father can escape from the mud of the Ming court. Now he is studying in his hometown in Henan, and no one will disturb him. I just go back and finish everything." Filial piety for the Son of Man.”
"The Grand Governor approved my leave and issued a communication certificate. In addition, the Grand Governor also asked me to bring a letter to my father."
Li Yangong was stunned for a moment and asked:
"Is it a letter written by the Grand Governor himself to your father?"
Gao Wuyuan nodded and said: "The Governor also met with me in person. He seems to be very familiar with my father, but I have never heard my father say that he has any old acquaintance with the Governor. My father has always been against the Governor."
Li Yangong said: "The Governor Yaliang may appreciate your father's talents."
"Maybe. I came to my house this time because I hope Brother Li can take care of my mother during the Chinese New Year."
Li Yangong immediately said: "This is as it should be! Brother Gao's mother is my mother. I will immediately take my aunt to my home to celebrate the New Year!"
Gao Wuguan thanked him again and then talked about the study class at the Army School.
Gao Wuguan said:
"Although I didn't participate in the training this time, I still gained some experience during my time in Dagu."
Li Yangong immediately said: "Just right! Me too, let's talk quickly."
Gao Wuguan said: "I feel that future wars will be about logistics."
