Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry
Chapter 272: Inexpensive Soldiers
Areas of different sizes were divided into areas on the Piyuan with wooden fences and ditches. In some places, soldiers were busy building barracks for troops to garrison. In other places, the slopes were leveled, gullies were filled, and buildings were built. The horses, who were training the men and horses, galloped along the road.
There is a hill with a moderate slope in the north of Piyuan. The altitude of the hill is not high, but you can overlook the surrounding fields from a high position. Yu Jin Camp, who came in advance and was responsible for supervising the construction of the Grand Parade venue, is located here.
In the early morning, Li Tai and his entourage rode their horses to the gate of the camp at the foot of the hillside. Many generals were already waiting here. They each handed the orders and names to the guards inside and asked them to pass them to the big tent.
The arrival of Li Tai and his entourage attracted a lot of attention, not only because of his outstanding appearance, but also because he had to deal with these generals when he also led Kai Cao, and his style is still fresh in people's memory.
Although it is said that only a few generals are awarded ceremonial cultural relics, they are all chosen by those with high status and qualifications, and there are many generals and supporters under their command.
The atmosphere of cliques in the army is even worse than that in the DPRK. Li Tai exploited armor and weapons from those people on behalf of the Taiwan government, and those people would naturally assign the tasks to their subordinates.
These middle and lower-level generals probably didn't know the whole story, but in the end they still took the responsibility. As the actual executor of this matter, Li Tai inevitably has a negative image in their eyes.
However, Li Tai doesn't care about this. Although he has not yet entered the real upper class, he can still be regarded as the upper middle class. Regardless of personal force or tribal power, these middle and lower class soldiers cannot defeat him.
Moreover, as the government army system continues to advance, these old town soldiers will be eliminated sooner or later, and a large number of small and medium-sized landowners in Guanlong are eager to take over. After the establishment of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, one of the fundamental reasons why several guys in the Liuzhu Kingdom were dealt with so smoothly was that they lost the support from the middle and lower classes of the soldiers.
It may be a bit cruel to say this, but the fact is that after the vigorous six-town uprising, except for a small number of people who achieved a class jump through strength and luck, the vast majority of the town soldiers became expendables of the times and became forces. Iterative supplies.
For example, in the current Western Wei Dynasty, or even in the scene before us, Yu Jin, the chief officer of the camp, comes from a famous family, not to mention Li Tai. They are all remnants of the old forces who have stolen the fruits of the revolution!
After he handed over the talisman, he was still sighing, and a knight in hakama pleated came trotting over on his horse. He passed the people who had been waiting outside the gate and looked straight at Li Li, who was waiting in the rear. Tai waved to him and said, "Boshan, you are here too early. The general asked me to bring you in."
Li Tai saw that the person who came was Nianhua, and was speechless for a moment. Why are you everywhere? Are you a professional who hugs the public?
Under the resentful gazes of the generals in front, Li Tai rode his horse and jumped in line without any sense of public morality. When the guards let him go, he entered the camp. He pointed at Nian Hua and asked curiously: "Brother Nian, why are you here?"
"After finishing the funeral of Mrs. Wang a month ago, I feel exhausted physically and mentally. I was planning to gather two or three friends to live leisurely in Zhongnan Mountain for more than a month. However, General Yu sent envoys to the house several times to conquer the land, and it was hard to refuse the warm hospitality, so I had to pack my bags and go back. "Gongfu."
Nianhua was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and said with embarrassment: "In the past, I worked with the Taiwei Gongfu, but now Boshan has been Fang Mu's choice to lead the army in Linmin, but I still move around the Gongfu and am timid to take charge. , Boshan is afraid that he is going to laugh at my incompetence, right?"
Li Tai suppressed his laughter and shook his head and waved his hands: "Brother Nian, you are too humble. The fact that you can be appreciated by everyone shows that you have outstanding talents and skills. It is already the consensus of the masses. Only those who are stupid like us need to work hard. , strive for recognition.”
"What kind of knowledge does one have? It's just that my father's shadow is quite impressive."
After hearing this, Nianhua laughed at himself, nodded to the generals who crossed their hands and saluted outside the camp gate, and then led Li Tai to the tent in the camp.
Although this guy is a second-generation guy, he is not the type to be disliked. He treats people with sincerity and is not keen on showing off his power. He is mature and prudent in dealing with people and has a broad personality. He handles matters that are welcomed and sent to the government with ease. Even Gao Zhongmi often misses him, no wonder his rank in the palace is getting higher and higher.
If an online book were written with this guy as the protagonist, it would be called "Three Kingdoms After Dominion: Beginning as a Leader's Secret".
Li Tai's mind was filled with gimmicks, and he had already arrived outside the big tent before he knew it. Nianhua raised his hand to signal him to stay outside the tent for a while. He went into the tent first to report, and after a while, he came out and waved to Li Tai to come in. .
There were a lot of people in the big tent, with twenty or thirty people sitting in rows on the left and right. They were all immersed in their papers, processing all kinds of official documents generated by the review.
Yu Jin was sitting upright, with one hand still ticking letters, and with the other he raised his hand and pointed at the empty seat in front of him, gesturing for Li Tai to take a seat. He was very good at multitasking, and his ability to deal with copywriting matters was not inferior to that of commanding troops in combat. In the short time since Li Tai sat down at the table, he had already reviewed and approved several official documents.
"Bo Shan is here to ask for accommodation and supplies for your troops? I'm afraid that's not possible today. The current fortress is not enough. Just three or two days. Come back in two days, and my officials will arrange for your troops to move in first. Settling down the camp.”
Yu Jin glanced at Li Tai and then returned it to the case. He said quickly. When he said this, he joked and smiled: "At the moment, most of the materials used on the plateau are the expenses of the Department of Water Administration. For you, the direct person." Of course the officer in charge of the case will give preferential treatment. If it were someone else who made the request, I would just let him wait and not come early to cause trouble!"
"The general is busy with his affairs, and his humble position is a long story short. Our men and horses are staying in the countryside, and there is no rush to enter the camp. However, the hastily gathered men and horses still need to be tested, and there is no suitable place for training in the countryside. Therefore, I asked the general to allocate the land to the camp. How many days will it take for a school field to be used?”
Seeing that Yu Jin was so busy, Li Tai also said quickly.
“It turns out that’s what it’s for, it’s not a problem.”
After Yu Jin heard this, he raised his head again, raised his pen and wrote an order. He sent the case to a subordinate at the other side and said: "Thank you, Doctor Liang, and Li will go out to the camp to select the school site later."
A burly man in the banquet stood up and clasped his fists in response. His physique did not look like that of a civil servant. His previous posture, where he was kneeling behind the desk, made Li Tai feel aggrieved for him.
When Li Tai achieved his goal, he stood up and bowed to say goodbye. When he was about to leave, he was stopped by Yu Jin and said: "When are you going to review the troops and send someone to tell them? You are very good at managing things. I am also curious about running an army." So what."
Li Tai couldn't help being a little flattered when he heard this, but he was also under a lot of psychological pressure for a while. Yu Jin can be said to be the first-class military strategist of this era. It was really stressful for him to come to watch the drills of his troops.
But he couldn't persuade Yu Jin to take care of his own business and not join in the fun. He could only nod in agreement, and then exited the camp together with Mr. Liang.
"Captain Li, I have admired him for a long time. My brother-in-law once had the honor of working with the Governor in the Taifu. When someone returned from Dongzhou, the virtuous voice of the Governor was already heard like thunder."
After leaving the camp, the burly Mr. Liang greeted Li Tai with fists in his arms and introduced himself.
After hearing this, Li Tai learned that this person's name was Liang Xin, and his family was from a prominent family in Jingzhao. His brother Liang Rong was Li Tai's former colleague of Kai Cao, Liang Canjun. However, from the time Li Tai joined the company until he left, Liang Canjun had been recuperating from illness. He did not meet his colleagues once, but instead met his brother first.
Li Tai walked outside the camp while chatting with Liang Xin. On the way, he listened to him describe the characteristics of various school grounds. Some have flat ground and are suitable for cavalry to gallop and clutch, while some have changeable terrain and are suitable for practicing various complex formation changes. etc.
At this time, there was no shortage of troops conducting drills in various school grounds. As the saying goes, sharpening one's weapons before battle is useless. As long as one can perform well in the parade, one can get generous rewards, which is no less than winning a big battle.
Moreover, people from many prefectures and counties rarely have the opportunity to perform martial arts. Naturally, they must seize this rare opportunity and strive to adjust their condition to the best before the official start of the parade.
Therefore, although there are not many people stationed in the camp on the plateau at the moment, the schedules in various schools are also full. Li Tai gave the green light because of Yu Jin's permission, and Liang Xin followed him around and made adjustments. , and only bought Li Tai one or two hours of practice time at several school grounds.
After the matter was settled, Li Tai was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he watched the drills on the field outside the schools.
There are usually not many people on these campuses, only between one and two thousand people, and sometimes even less. The equipment is naturally not as fully armed as in battle. They only wear military uniforms with simple swords and sticks, and conduct various drills under the command of flags and drums.
Among the people who perform these exercises, no matter how big or small, there is always a small group that performs far better than the others.
Needless to say, these people must be the direct descendants of the general. They have the best individual qualities and cooperation experience. They serve as the core of the team in both offense and defense. No matter how many other troops there are, what the military capacity is, or how the formation changes, They are all just to cooperate with the elite troops to complete combat missions.
Li Tai watched for a moment from the sidelines and couldn't help but sigh. Every era has its own tactical characteristics.
The Northern and Southern Dynasties had been in turmoil for a long time. The most important weapon of the country, the army, had been scattered in the hands of powerful military leaders for many years. The mainstream combat method was small-scale elite decisive battles. The development of heavy armor and equipment was only to maintain and strengthen individual soldiers. The combat capabilities of individuals and a small number of elites.
As long as the team of the large army fights together and the situation is not favorable, the bigger the battle becomes, the worse the loss will be. Er Zhurong's regiment destroyed the rebel forces in six towns in Hebei Province, Gao Huan defeated the Er Zhu family's coalition forces, and Yu Wentai defeated the Eastern Wei army in Shayuan. They were all classic examples of defeating more with less.
Gao Huan and Yu Wentai, old enemies, each had their own regrets on the battlefield. Apart from various other factors, it was also due to their shortcomings in commanding large army operations and tactical coordination. There are various deficiencies such as lack of control.
