Wang Sheng does not know the news of the reconciliation between the emperor and the empress.

Wang Sheng is outside Beiying now.

This northern camp is said to be a military camp, but after being stationed there for several years, it became equivalent to a small city.

Just like Tianjin in later generations, the original Tianjin was called Tianjin Wei, which was the acropolis that guarded Beijing.

Although the North Camp is not as large as the Tianjin Guard, there are 100,000 Chinese troops stationed in the North Camp, so the military camp still occupies a large area.

At the very least, the Beiying Gate is quite big.

The news of Wang Sheng's arrival in Beiying was actually received in advance.

However, when Wang Sheng's carriage arrived, only Zhang Hong and his generals came to greet him outside the gate of Beiying. As for the generals of the Chinese army and the generals of the middle rank, Wang Sheng did not see any of them.

The people in Beiying didn't seem particularly friendly to him!

However, even if Zhang Hong was alone, Wang Sheng had no choice but to get off the carriage.

"General."

"Junhou."

He was the only one who came out to greet him, and Zhang Hong himself was a little embarrassed.

"Why don't you see the general of the Chinese army?"

In the northern camp, it was the general of the central army who was talking about the matter.

"this..."

Seeing Zhang Hong hesitating, Wang Sheng also knew what happened.

To talk about Beiying, we have to talk about the military system of the Western Jin Dynasty.

According to the nature, it can be divided into five parts: the emperor's army, the governor's army, the clan army, the private army and the national army.

Among them, the Emperor's Army is easy to explain, it is the emperor's personal army.

In the Western Jin Dynasty, the main force of the Emperor's Army was located in Luoyang, the capital of the capital, which was in the nature of a forbidden army in the capital.

It includes two armies and four armies, namely the left and right armies, commanded by the left and right generals respectively. The four armies include the front army, the rear army, the left army, the right army, and the left and right armies, all of which are commanded by the central army.

The generals and central commanders were in charge and served as palace guards. The famous central army generals Yang Hu and the central commander Yang Xiu were among the famous generals.

The imperial city also has five schools and five battalions, which are in charge of the school captains who serve as guards of the capital. They are also guarded by the Lieutenant Colonel of the Northern Army. The famous garrison captain Hao Chang has eight thousand soldiers guarding the capital.

The total number of garrison troops in the capital is less than 100,000, and there are more than 30,000 imperial guards in the capital. Each of the garrison in the capital has 8,000 captains, a total of 40,000, for a total of 70,000.

This is the army that Sima Yu can really control, and it is where he and the prince have the confidence to compete with the world.

The literal meaning of the Dudufu Army is the army of various places.

The Gyeonggi Army is the central army under the direct control of the emperor. The local central army is called the Dudufu Army. It is commanded by the governor of the state. It only obeys the orders of the emperor and not the local princes. The governor is called Fang Zhen. He commands the governor's army and even monitors the local clan princes.

The power of the army is usually 10,000 or 20,000, and the governor's army is more than the local clan troops. It is convenient to prevent the princes from rebelling, and the governor has the power to punish the local clan.

For example, in Liangzhou, the governor of Liangzhou always has 20,000 soldiers, but in fact, during wartime recruitment, in a short period of time, there can be close to 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers. If it takes some time, the number of soldiers recruited will be even more.

.

This was Sima Yan's policy to prevent civil strife and effectively strengthened centralization of power.

There are a total of 22 governorates in each state, with a total military strength of more than 300,000.

These twenty-two states are calculated based on the states in the Three Kingdoms, not the thirteen states in the world.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Wei had twelve states, Wu had four states, and Shu had one state. The Western Jin Dynasty divided Wu, Jingzhou, and Yangzhou into 15 states. Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty separated Qinzhou from the original Liangzhou and made it from Yizhou.

The prefecture was divided into Liangzhou, Ningzhou, and Pingzhou from Youzhou, totaling nineteen prefectures.

Emperor Hui of the Jin Dynasty divided Jing, Yang and Jiangzhou, divided Jing, Jiang, and Guang into Xiangzhou, and finally got 21 states. The Zhang family took over Liangzhou and established Shazhou in the Western Regions. There were a total of 22 states in the Jin Dynasty.

.

The governor's army is the soldiers controlled by Zhao Yan, Geng Teng, and Luo Shang, and the clan army is the soldiers controlled by the kings of the world.

At the beginning, in order to protect the royal family and clan members, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty, Sima Yan, allowed the clan to build armed forces to protect the central emperor and for self-defense. The clan army was strictly limited. Large countries could not exceed 5,000 people, and small countries could only have 1,000 people. Compared with the Cao Wei clan, they only had a hundred people to protect them.

It has been greatly enhanced. It can not only help King Qin to participate in the war when powerful officials in the central government usurp the country, but also limit the number of troops to five thousand and prevent clan rebellions with large numbers of troops like the Rebellion of the Seven Kings.

Sima Yan initially granted more than 20 titles to kings and had an army of about 100,000.

But now, there are more princes, and naturally there are more clan troops.

Among them, there are also those who expand the military under various excuses.

The typical representative of this point is naturally Sima Yong of Chang'an.

Under the guise of consolidating Yongliang and suppressing the Qiang and Di, the clan army in his hands probably already numbered 100,000.

Among them, there is also the King of Qi who has a foresight. The number of clan soldiers in his hands should not be much less than that of the King of Hejian.

As for the private army, it is easier to understand.

The private soldiers of the Jin Dynasty became an important military force. They were similar to the powerful private soldiers in the Three Kingdoms era. They were all called family soldiers, usually relatives and retainers of aristocratic families. The famous private soldiers include the ancestral family army and the private soldiers of Zu Tishuai in the Northern Expedition.

With the support of Sima Pei, Henan was recovered.

The number of private soldiers is huge, and the total number of private soldiers of noble families is nearly one million.

The national army consists of the five Bingzhou Xiongnu tribes and the Qiang and Di people of Yongliang.

There were a large number of foreign armed forces in the Western Jin Dynasty. These border ethnic armies loyal to the Jin Dynasty were an important military force of the Jin Dynasty. They not only helped the Jin Dynasty guard the borders, but also quelled internal rebellions and divisions, and even played an important role in the Jin Dynasty's expansion of borders.

Famous ethnic armies include the Duan Clan Armed Forces, the Tuoba Clan Armed Forces, the Murong Clan Armed Forces, etc., with a total strength of over one million.

The Jin Dynasty abolished the county soldiers and returned the state soldiers to the governor's office. The abolition of the state and county soldiers mainly reduced the county soldiers. They were only guarded by military officials. There were a hundred military officials in large counties and fifty in small counties. The total number of military officials was about 10,000.

Danzhou has a governor's office, and there are still troops to fight. Zhang Hua, Tang Bin and others brought the governor's army with them when they opened up frontiers and territories. The defense of the border areas relied on the national army. For example, the Tuoba tribe built a monument to be loyal to Sima Zhong, and they had flattery.

Emperor Jin, inscription on defending the frontier.

Of course, the millions of troops that come here from time to time are actually false reports.

And there are a lot of false reports, most of which even include logistics.

It seems that there are two to three million armies in the world, but in fact there are not that many. There are only four to five million standing troops at most, and the rest are used for farming.

If you pick up a weapon, you become a soldier; if you pick up a hoe, you become a tenant farmer.

Naturally, the level of such a half-baked soldier is limited when it comes to fighting a war.

Of these five types of armies, the Chinese Army has the strongest combat effectiveness, followed by the Dudufu Army and the Clan Army.

The National Army is the third level. Those below the National Army are naturally private soldiers.

If you say these private soldiers are guards, there is no problem. If you say they are farmers, there is no problem either.

At critical moments, the family was able to summon so many people.

The Chinese army has a reputation of being able to fight one against five, or even one against ten, and is well-trained. This is why the emperor dared to challenge the aristocratic families and clan kings.

I have soldiers on hand!

Wang Sheng still wanted to make good friends with the Beiying Central Army.

Now he is in the northern camp, and only Zhang Hong is there. After Zhang Hong conquered Qi Wannian, he took the position of the general of the former army, but the general of the former army only controlled ten thousand people.

As for the general of the Chinese army, I left it to Sima Ya.

In fact, the original general of the Central Army was given to King Mao Sima Lue. With his clan status, Sima Lue, although he was a bit younger, was still qualified to be the general of the Central Army based on his status as king of the clan.

But after Sima Tai passed away, Sima Luo went to attend the funeral.

The emperor had no choice but to let Sima Ya temporarily take over Sima Luo's position.

Apart from Sima Ya, he could not find anyone he could trust for a while.

The central leader is Hua Heng, the commander of the palace.

It stands to reason that both of them are not qualified enough, but the emperor really has no one available.

On the Chinese Army, his most important base, he did not want to make any mistakes.

Therefore, the generals and leaders of the central army arranged for their direct line to go up.

That is, the generals of the left guard, the generals of the right guard, the generals of the front army, the generals of the rear army, etc. In addition to the captains, the captains, lieutenants and generals were basically changed.

Most of the people who were replaced had two characteristics. The first was that they were trusted by the emperor, and the second was that they were young.

Sima Ya was only in his twenties and thirties, and he became a general in the central army. This shows how short of men the emperor was.

Wang Sheng had some conflicts with Sima Ya before he was born. It is understandable that Sima Ya, the general of the Chinese army, did not come to greet him.

As for Hua Heng.

Excuse me.

Although Hua Heng is the leader of the Central Army, he comes from a noble family, so why would he stay in the military camp?

Furthermore, he was mainly responsible for the defense of the palace city. He was basically in the palace all day long, getting familiar with the emperor. Who would want to stay with Qiu Ba all the time?

However, although Wang Sheng did not have much relationship with Sima Ya, his coming to the Central Army was the emperor's wish.

Sima Ya, the general of the Chinese army, deserves to be seen.

In fact, in this expedition to Wei County, Wang Sheng was actually satisfied as long as he could bring Zhang Hong's Chinese army with him.

"Let's go and see the general of the Chinese army."

When you come to Beiying, it’s nothing if you don’t pay a visit to the pier.

Zhang Hong nodded lightly, but before leaving, he said one more thing.

"I think there seems to be a rift between the general of the Chinese army and the prince. The prince should be more careful."

In the military camp, military orders are everywhere.

Of course Sima Ya did not dare to do anything to Wang Sheng, but it was still easy to do such a thing to embarrass Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng nodded lightly and said with a smile: "I understand, let's go see the general of the Chinese army now."
Chapter completed!
