The strongest son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty

Ah!

Screams sounded.

Rumble!

This time the catapult did not fail, and it hit a small boat heavily, and the boat was sunk all at once.

Bang!

The Chang'an collided with another Baekje boat.

Bump into it recklessly!

There was no damage on the Chang'an, not even a trace left.

Invincible, overcoming thorns and thorns.

Du He looked and shook his head.

No opponent at all, the performance of the steam engine warship is too good.

The small boats of the Baekje Kingdom were unable to defeat the Tang Emperor's army, and they were unable to escape when they tried to escape. The imperial warships came up and easily caught up.

Chapter 288 Rectification of the Military System

After the First World War, the performance of the steam engine warship was fully utilized, and dozens of small boats in Baekje were wiped out.

"Return!"

Doo Ho said.

"As ordered!"

Back at the Navy's temporary simple pier, Du He led a group of people off the warship.

"Young master, His Majesty sent someone to deliver the decree."

A pro-guard said.

Received it and looked at it.

Hey!

Li Er agreed.

Although it is just a pilot, but once successful, it will be promoted throughout the army.

Unexpected!

Du He gave Li Er a memorial, but he didn't expect much, but Li Er really agreed.

Really worthy of being a generation of Mingjun.

Have a unique vision and see far.

You must know that the reform of the military system affects all interests, and a little carelessness will bring chaos to the empire.

Ordinary emperors really dare not make decisions lightly.

Du He handed Li Er's imperial edict to Lu Xun and Li Deqiu.

"Master, implementing the military rank system and changing the military system is indeed a major event. However, how does the navy operate?"

Lu Xun asked.

Du He took out another bundle of documents and handed them to Lu Xun.

"Bo Yan, I want to form a North Sea Fleet here, and the base of the North Sea Fleet will be in Hulukou."

Du He took out the map, pointed to it and said: "I see a suitable place in this area, and we need to build a port.

as an auxiliary base.The peninsula goes around to the east, and you will see a port.Here, it is called Vladivostok.

This is a very good place to build a Beihai base.There will be no ice here for many years,

Sailable all year round.The point is that this place, being able to control this area, is very important to the empire.

From now on, the Beihai base will take the lead when the empire goes out to conquer the Eastern Kingdom. "

Doo Ho said.

"Bo Yan, you will be the commander of the Beihai Fleet. I will report this matter to Li Er and try to get Li Er's support.

As for the ranks of other soldiers, Bo Yan is in charge of the operation. "

Duho added.

"Master, I'll read the implementation plan first, and then study it together."

Lawson Road.

Du He nodded, took out another bundle of documents, and handed them to Li Deqiu.

That's the Army's rectification plan.

Lu Xun and Li Deqiu were looking at the detailed rules. Du He did not affect them, drinking tea slowly, thinking about something in their minds.

Originally, Du He hoped to temporarily stop the attack, but Li Errang went out as soon as possible, which made it difficult for Du He.

Now Li Errang is experimenting with a new military system and accepting military ranks, creating conditions for Du He not to enter the army.

Let Baekje and Silla fight for a while to consume the strength of the two countries, which is very beneficial to the empire.

Don't try to figure out the new military system and military ranks without a month.

By the way, I have to tell Liaoxi City to process some new military uniforms as soon as possible.

The uniforms are too late to be produced, but there shouldn't be any problems with combat uniforms.

Taking this opportunity, Du He immediately wrote a letter and sent someone to Liaoxi City to inquire about the production progress of the steam engine.

"Master, this plan is very detailed. Soldiers enlist as privates, and after three months of recruit training, they become corporals."

Lawson Road.

Du He actually copied the military system of later generations.

But what?

After a soldier is promoted to sergeant, there are two ways to be promoted again.

One is conscripts, and the rank is non-commissioned officer. There are six levels of non-commissioned officers, and the treatment of level-[-] non-commissioned officers is equivalent to that of a major general.

In this way, many craftsmen and technical soldiers in the army also had a head start.

"Bo Yan. The chief officer of the Beihai Fleet is usually a lieutenant general or above. However, we don't have a lieutenant general for the time being.

You will take up the post first, with the rank of major general.As for the post of political commissar, Li Er sent someone to fill it.

At present, Bo Yan can only serve concurrently.The workload will be heavy, but I believe Boyan can do a good job. "

Doo Ho said.

"Young master, don't worry! I will work hard, absolutely live up to my hopes, and contribute to the empire's naval construction."

Lawson Road.

After staying in Lu Xun's army for two days, and talking with Lu Xun carefully, Du He took Li Deqiu away.

Lu Xun is in charge of all naval affairs.

Returning to Pingyang City, Du He took out Li Er's imperial edict and read it out to the generals.

All of a sudden, the generals were stunned and speechless for a long time.

After all, Du He never told anyone else about this matter, and if Li Er hadn't agreed to the pilot, Du He wouldn't have said it either.

Next, Du He explained to everyone what is the new military system, what is the military rank and many other issues.

After a few hours, all the generals figured it out.

After all, in the minds of a group of generals, it's just called differently. It's no big deal to call Mochang the squad leader.

The key point is that soldiers are promoted all the way from private to sergeant, and there will be two promotion routes after they reach sergeant.

One is the non-commissioned officer system, and the other is the military rank system.

Originally, according to Du He's idea, the military rank must be established in conjunction with the education of the military academy. At present, the Tang Empire does not have a military academy.

Can only give up.

"General, when there is no order, no matter what level the chief officer is, he can mobilize no more than one company of troops.

Is this too little?Some of the general's personal guards will be as many as hundreds of people, which is not easy to handle! "

Qin Li asked.

Ugh!

Du He let out a long sigh.

This is the drawback of the ancient military system.

Some generals will bring thousands of personal guards with them when they go out.

Those personal guards are actually private soldiers, they only obey the orders of their own generals, the military cannot be mobilized, and the emperor cannot be mobilized.

The new military system stipulates a maximum of dozens of personal guards, and the emperor and the military do not recognize the existence of more than a few.

If it is not included in the army, there will be no military expenses.

In the past, as long as they were the personal guards of the chief officer, no matter how many they were, they would all be taken into the army.

To put it bluntly, he is eating the money and food of the country and supporting the general's private soldiers.

It is undeniable that those private soldiers have very high combat effectiveness.

The treatment is good, and he is the direct descendant of the chief officer, so it's no wonder that his combat effectiveness is not good.

A new military system, canceling private soldiers.

"Young Master Qin, there's nothing wrong with it. Private soldiers have always been out of control of the country and the emperor.

is a destabilizing factor that must be curbed.This is good for the security of the empire.the general rebelled,

harm the country.The new military system eliminates the existence of private soldiers. Some generals don't understand it for the time being, but they will gradually adapt. "

Doo Ho said.

To be honest, Du He was very worried about how much resistance there would be once the new military system was implemented, and some veteran generals would definitely oppose it.

For the safety of the empire, it must be rectified.

Thinking about another plane, didn't generals rebel in the middle and late Tang Dynasty?

It was in that way that the strength of the empire was greatly weakened, and the Tang Empire was weakening.

"Generals, your personal guards, you can make him a formal soldier, or you can let him go home.

There is no way around this, we have to make a choice. "

Duho added.

"General, it's hard to find candidates for political commissars and instructors at all levels!"

Cheng Chu said.

Ha ha!

"Don't worry about this matter, His Majesty will send it down to take up corresponding positions at all levels. At present,

Temporarily held by chief officials at all levels.Let's adjust the military system first, and then select the military ranks at all levels. "

Doo Ho said.

The generals put forward all kinds of opinions and views one after another, and Du Hejun explained patiently to let everyone fully understand.

Chapter 289 Crossing the Han River

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

All the soldiers and horses under Du He's banner were dressed in new combat uniforms and steel helmets. The soldiers looked mighty and unyielding.

"General, the envoy of Silla Kingdom is here, please see Your Excellency the General."
