At night, in Yecheng, Yuwen Wen was writing in a hurry, with many words and numbers written on the paper. He was sorting out various resources in his hands. As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's enemy, he would remind himself from time to time.

In three years, the trajectory of history has shifted slightly, and the dynasty that should have perished has continued, but the dynasty that should have become the protagonist has also appeared on the stage of history.

The changes in the timeline made Yuwen Wen's ability to predict the future invalid. He could no longer take targeted measures in advance with confidence to prevent the situation from deteriorating in his unfavorable direction. The only thing he could do was to strengthen his strength.

If there are 20,000 elite cavalry, 50,000 elite infantry, marching, logistical mules and horses, and take 100,000 servants to ensure the supply of food and grass, you don’t have to think about any strategy. According to the saying of later generations, just use the mouse to put the soldiers in a box directly over.

But that is impossible. Such troops can only be borne by the whole country. Seven or eight years ago, the Zhou State attacked Qi, and the Zhou army's troops did not exceed 170,000 each time. In the end, the Zhou State destroyed Qi's troops no more than 200,000. Of course, this was a real army, and there was no routine double-double water injection.

The strength of the prefectures and counties in Shannan is much worse than that in Shandong (east of the Taihang Mountains) and Henan, especially the population and farmland. The Jingzhou General Administration and Xiangzhou General Administration are still fine. After all, it was an area developed during the Han Dynasty, while the Jiangbei Prefectures are much worse.

With a small population and insufficient farmland, less rent and transfer were paid. At this time, the development degree of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River basin was not like that of the Song Dynasty. Not only were there few people, but there were not much land reclamation, and the grain planted was not enough to raise too many full-time soldiers.

If the people are recruited to serve in the military, it will be fine in a short period of time, but it will be troublesome if the farming time is delayed for a long time.

This is still the case of not defeating the battle. If there are heavy casualties in the battle, a large number of agricultural population will be lost. The harvest was small back then, and there was not enough farming staff in the coming year.

Just like playing basketball, a team's starting five players are super strong, but the bench players are not good enough. It's okay to play one or two games, but it will be over for a season. Once the main player is injured and cannot play on the court, the team will jump directly from the cliff.

Now that Zhou and Sui are in a confrontation, if no one can win quickly, they can only rely on national strength to seize the other's flaws while reducing their own flaws. In this case, Yuwen Wen is not very optimistic about his side.

Emperor Yang Jian of Sui was Emperor Wen of Sui, and his ability to govern the country was at the forefront among the emperors of all dynasties. Now, there are also supporters of the Long Group, and the probability of problems itself is very small. On the contrary, the hidden dangers in the Zhou State are much greater, so the longer the time delays, the more trouble it is.

The trouble is not only for the Zhou court, but also for the royal family. Yu Wen Wen has already thought about all kinds of possibilities, but the only thing that can break the deadlock is his own strength.

Not only his father and brother's strength, but his strength cannot be worse. It is mid-July. According to the schedule, the angels of the court should have arrived in Shannan. Then the Bazhou Military Prefecture can be officially established, and the subordinates can follow the steps based on the arrangements made by Yuwen Wen before leaving.

After the establishment of the military palace, Yuwen Wen had three types of soldiers: prefecture and county soldiers, recruiting soldiers and prefecture soldiers.

The military systems of different countries are slightly different, but the actual differences are not large. They are all divided into central and foreign troops. The central and central troops are also called Taiwan troops, which are the imperial guards of the imperial palace. The Northern Zhou Dynasty implemented the system of government troops. The government troops were also in the palace and went to war when needed.

But the central army does not only have one official army, but also another imperial guard.

Foreign troops include soldiers from prefectures and counties, soldiers from garrisons, and most of them are soldiers from the world, recruiting and recruiting troops.

The soldiers of prefectures and counties are local troops, and the soldiers are mainly local people of prefectures and counties. The governors and county magistrates lead the soldiers of prefectures and counties, and obey the orders of superiors, that is, the governors, the governors in charge of the military affairs of each state, and the general managers are dispatched.

The troops in the garrison are guarded by the border guards, mainly local people or recruit troops. The troops are led by the generals (equivalent to the governor of the state) and the garrison (equivalent to the county magistrate), and the defense is set up between the town and the garrison (the important area for defense) and the defense is led by the troops to guard the troops.

Bazhou is located on the southern border of Zhou State and confronts Chen State across the river, so the prefecture and county soldiers merge with the town and garrison soldiers.

Now a new military office is established, led by General Yuwen Wen. The military office trains 4,000 military troops and needs to appoint a series of military positions. The specific list has been drafted by Yuwen Liang, a major station, before leaving for Yecheng.

Therefore, the relevant personnel have already begun to prepare related matters. After the court formally issued the order, even if Yu Wen Wen was not there, the establishment of a military office could be carried out immediately.

The general has a subordinate general Yitong (referred to as the General Kaifu). The general Kaifu has a subordinate force of two thousand troops, and the general Eryitong (referred to as the General Yitong), and the general Yitong has a subordinate force of one thousand troops. Yitong has a subordinate general, a commander general, and a commander general, and all personnel are selected from Shannan Prefectures and counties.

Kaifu Yi and the General, one was transferred to Daxingtai, and the other was Shi Longsui, the leader of the Hulin Army with outstanding military achievements. There were also four generals of Yi and the General, and the two were transferred to Daxingtai, and the two were selected as generals of the Hulin Army: Liang Dingxing and Chen Qijin.

There were also the Grand Commander, the General, and the General, who were selected from the soldiers of the prefectures, Hulin Army and the township soldiers who made military achievements in the previous year. The Hulin Army, the Master of the Ban Huer, Tian Xiaoqi, and Chen Mi were awarded the Grand Commander.

Xiong Dali, the head of the Hulin Army, Xie Liangdou and others were appointed as the commander-in-chief, the governor, etc. for their military achievements.

The general, the general of the founding office, and the general of Yitong must have an assistant, the general of the general's office, the chief of the chief of the general, Sima, and the chief of the general's office, were appointed by the seventh life. These important positions were appointed by Daxingtai, and the other assistants were selected by Yuwen Wen from the soldiers of the Hulin Army.

Long live Shi, the general of Kaifu, and the assistants of Yitong General Liang Dingxing and Chen Qijin, among them are important positions such as Chief Shi, Sima, and Silu. These three positions are appointed by General Yuwen Wen, and the other assistants are appointed by him as the Hulin Army and the prefectures and county soldiers.

Yuwen Wen spent three years training the Hulin Army into his own talent pool, so the skeleton of the establishment of the New Military Mansion in Bazhou could be quickly set up. Those residents of Wuchang County who moved to Bazhou, as well as some Hulin Army soldiers, who had land, were all incorporated into the prefecture army sequence to form an army.

The posts with 4,000 troops were filled soon, and with experienced veterans joining, it can be predicted that the progress of training the mansion soldiers would be faster.

The military soldiers of the palace first showed their prototype, and the Hulin Army, whose backbone was removed, was not idle either. The military commander Chen Wudi was promoted to the other general of Zheng Liudi, Tian Zhengyue, and Hao Dadao was promoted to the military commander of Zheng Wudi. Although Yi and General Yi were a little worse than the general of Jiudi's Kaifu, their identities were equally important.

The Hulin Army they commanded was recruited by Yuwen Wen, the Duke of Xiyang County. It was said to be private soldiers, but the generals of the Hulin Army had a serious military position, which was all for the sake of future preparations: after Yuwen Wen was promoted to generals, the Hulin Army, who was commanded by other generals, was the chief officer's personal army.

The general manager led the army to fight. The prefectures and county soldiers led by the governors of each state have a great combat power, and the general manager also has a direct army. In addition to the army led by Sima, it is the army of other generals and generals at this level.

Of course that was the future. Yuwen Wen calculated that he had more than 10,000 soldiers on his books, deducted the prefectures and counties who were guarding his family, the four thousand government soldiers who had not yet formed an army, two thousand new soldiers of the Tiger Forest Army, and the remaining three thousand veterans of the Tiger Forest Army.

With three thousand veterans, they can defend the boundary of Bazhou even without attacking. This year, the crops on the opposite Wuchang and Yingzhou boundary were finished. The harvest was equal to nothing, and the food had to be transported by other places. By the time we came again next year, Chen Jun's logistics would become increasingly difficult.

Yingzhou is very important to the State of Chen. It starts from the Three Gorges and goes eastward, and is south of the Yangtze River as the territory of Chen. If Yingzhou loses it, the territory will be cut off. The most convenient Yangtze River waterway is cut off, and the land connection is still there, but most of them are mountains and steep, so it is much harder to dispatch troops in a short period of time.

Therefore, the State of Chen must defend Yingzhou no matter what, just like the Ming army in the late Ming Dynasty had to defend western Liao and protect the national gates no matter what.

However, the Qing Dynasty continued to invade, and even went deep into the Shandong territory to plunder people and property, and then rushed back to the pass, swaggeringly sucking blood to strengthen itself. The Ming Dynasty became increasingly weak, but it could not give up on the Liao territory, so it could only hold on.

Yuwen Wen had no good feelings for the Qing Dynasty, but it did not delay him from learning this strategy. The results of farming in Bazhou will be obvious after several years. Therefore, Yuwen Wen had to continue to harass Yingzhou opposite, grab people and grain, in other words, suck the blood of Chen Guo.

Whenever Chen State had a breath, he had to mobilize manpower and material resources to support Yingzhou. He could not have few troops, but if there were too many, he had to supply a large amount of food and grass. This was a heavy burden on the logistics, but it was impossible to abandon Yingzhou.

Unless they attack the Zhou army in Jiangbei, the strength of Chen State's naval army was greatly damaged. The main force had to defend Jiankang and could not draw out the large troops to advance west immediately. It would take several years for the strength to recover. What's more, they might not be able to overcome the hedgehog-like Wuzhou Shu and Yanji, so they could only grit their teeth and waste it.

As the advantageous side, Yuwen Wen used the power of a state to consume the other side. Chen's national strength was slowly consumed. Yuwen Wen even thought with malicious intentions whether Chen would collect "Ying salary" and then force the people to rebel.

He was planning the current situation. Next year, the new soldiers of the Mansion and Hulin Army will be trained, and nine thousand troops will be combined with friendly forces to cross the river and make trouble. If Chen's army is hit hard again, he should be powerless.

After a few twists and turns, Yingzhou will become a ripe fruit and can be picked.

There were a lot of nine thousand soldiers, but it was not necessarily the case compared to those powerful private soldiers of aristocratic families. When he was drinking and having fun with others a few days ago, he heard that a governor from Henan brought tens of thousands of troops when he took office.

Of course, it was backed by a large family. It was not surprising that there were many private soldiers in this era when the private soldiers of the department could be inherited from generation to generation. However, Yuwen Wen was very confident in his soldiers. It should not be too easy to recruit private soldiers of the department, and his soldiers were not a bad guy.

No matter who has his troops, Yuwen Wen's private soldiers are very powerful, his military training will take three days off for one day, and every meal will be full of meat and salt, the military pay will be well paid, and the rewards and punishments will be clearly divided into land. He is fully confident to compete with these troops.

The only drawback is that there are too few people with high qualifications in the Hulin Army. The military government established this time will set up two generals of Kaifu Yitong, but only Shi Wansui can take advantage of it. The two candidates of Yitong Yitong were barely gathered together.

Shi Wansui had already become the general before. In addition, he had made many military achievements in the past two years. Yuwen Wen strongly recommended him to be convinced, but Liang Dingxing and Chen Qijin were very reluctant, and he only pushed him up by "scanning his face".

The ranks of Yitong Generals of Kaifu and Yitong Generals of all were nine lives. This was already a second-class senior official. Yuwen Wen had to consider the "influence", so he could only stop his actions of stuffing people into the military mansion.

The general Shi Wansui of Kaifu, the two generals under his command were Liang Dingxing, Chen Qijin, as well as the Grand Governor, General, General, etc., with two thousand troops, all of which were from the Hulin Army, accounting for half of the military force, and were considered to be Yuwen Wen's direct line.

Another Kaifu General, and his two Yitong Generals under his jurisdiction, and the generals under the command of the Grand Commander, were arranged by Daxingtai. After all, his father was the actual chief of Shannan and his subordinates wanted to be promoted.

In this way, the military soldiers in the palace are somewhat different from the Hulin Army. After all, the military soldiers are Yuwen Wen's own army. He can forbid generals from bringing their own troops, but the military soldiers are not good, because in this era, it is normal for generals to have troops.

Generals with troops are very likely to leave their soldiers and run for life at critical moments, but the generals can also lead the troops to fight bloody battles. Private troops in the army have both advantages and disadvantages. Yuwen Wen does not like this phenomenon and believes that it is a tumor of a healthy army. Whether it is benign or malignant, it is not a good thing.

But he couldn't change anything, so he could only do it on his own in the Hulin Army's three-point land. As the number of troops under his jurisdiction increased, more and more generals in the army would become more and more, and it was even impossible for the number of troops to exceed the number of ordinary soldiers.

Many generals of the government soldiers of this era were the original leaders or powerful soldiers, and they brought their own troops into the sequence. Even though the court gave the position of Grand Governor, General Governor, and Governor, these generals were the first masters of their subordinates.

It still retains the nature of the private soldiers of the army. To put it bluntly, "The subordinates of the subordinates are not my subordinates, and the superiors of the superiors are not my superiors." This kind of army is a bit troublesome and has hidden dangers when commanding.

The leader of the township soldiers and powerful men were assigned to the government soldiers and were generally awarded the title of Grand Governor and General. Then his superiors, Yi Tong, and others, can only command the Grand Governor level, and it is impossible to command grassroots soldiers beyond the level.

Because the generals and the generals were only subordinates of the generals in their posts. In fact, these original private soldiers only listened to the Grand Governor or the General, that is, they only listened to the orders of their Langzhu. Yuwen Wen was extremely unhappy with this feeling of poor command.

Even at the critical moment, the Grand Governor and the General can command their troops to come down to "shoulder and superiors". After all, for the General Governor and the Generals, the Langzhu is their backbone.

The Langzhu said that he would kill whoever he wanted. Even if he was General Yi Tong, the Kaifu General was no exception. The hierarchical shock in the normal army was completely useless. This situation reminded Yuwen Wen of the situation in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties.

The Jiedushi deposed the emperor, the generals deposed the Jiedushi, the soldiers deposed the Ya generals, and then the soldiers were lawless and did not obey the command in wars. The military discipline was treated like a joke. If the situation was good, they rushed forward. If the situation was not right, they were not allowed to leave immediately, causing a collapse.

If the treatment is worse, the people will make trouble. If the fish and meat are not allowed to make money, the people will make trouble. If the city is not allowed, the new military governor will have to give rewards. If there is no distribution, there will be mutiny. If there is no distribution, there will be rewards. If there is no distribution, there will be mutiny. If there is no distribution, there will be mutiny.

The reputation of a soldier was ruined by the military gangsters of the Five Dynasties. With the implementation of the imperial examination, joining the army is no longer the choice of a good family. Participating in the imperial examination and becoming an official is the goal of life, and there is no more pen to join the army.

Private troops in the army are prevalent, and this situation cannot be reversed by Yuwen Wen. He only struggled for a moment and felt relieved. After taking back his thoughts, he looked at the night outside the window and couldn't help but murmured:
Chapter completed!
