Chapter 168 Reorganization
On April 7, 426, the third day after Liu Ji returned to Chengyin County, on a hillside south of Chengyin City, Liu Ji brought dozens of military generals under his command toast a glass of wine to three newly built graves. Among the three graves were Cheng Yuanzhi, Zou Jing and Yang Hongtao who died at the Xishankou.
The ten first-class generals, four second-class generals and twenty-seven third-class generals summoned by Liu Jixin were already here at this time. These forty-one new generals appeared outside Chengyin City at the same time. The memory input by the system to these forty-one generals is still so far-fetched. It is said that these forty-one generals had received the kindness of Liu Ji before and had already been taken over by Liu Ji as his family generals. When they came to Chengyin City, they were summoned by Liu Ji.
Liu Ji could only use this far-fetched excuse to explain the sudden emergence of the forty-one military generals. Fortunately, everyone has become accustomed to Liu Ji's mystery, and no one has gone to find the root of the forty-one military generals.
After tribute to Cheng Yuanzhi, the tombs of three generals Zou Jing and Yang Hongtao, Liu Ji turned around and sighed to dozens of generals and said, "In the future, this hillside will be called Zhonghun Slope. If there are fallen generals, including this general, they will be buried here. In the future, worship will be held every year. As for the valley where ordinary soldiers are buried below, it will be called Zhonghun Valley, and worship will be held every year!"
Dozens of generals nodded in agreement, and casualties were inevitable on the battlefield. If one of them died in battle, he could be buried in Zhonghun Pond and worshipped every year, it would be a good destination for the generals.
Next, Liu Ji said: "Now our Chengyin Army has been reorganized again. I hope that all battalions and divisions will step up training. We are currently garrisoning on the grassland north of the Xishankou. Maybe when will some nomadic army launch an attack on our Chengyin Army!"
Logically speaking, Liu Ji was just a partial general appointed by the Jin court, and could only control three troops at most, that is, one battalion of troops. However, Liu Ji had already established eight cavalry and seven infantry in the Chengyin Army before, and did not take into account the military system of the Jin Dynasty.
This time, Cheng Yin Army was reorganized again. Because its troops had reached more than 100,000, Liu Ji directly used the battalion organization in Cheng Yin Army, and Liu Ji appointed some military generals as commanders and acted as chief generals of each battalion.
According to the military system of the Great Jin Dynasty, the official position of the Duwei is only under the generals, and is generally the deputy general of the battalion. In fact, Liu Ji, the minor general, has no right to appoint the Duwei, and the Duwei can only be appointed by the Dajin court. The Grand Jin court will not recognize the Duwei appointed by Liu Ji. Liu Ji, the minor general, has the power to appoint the lieutenant under his command.
This time the Chengyin Army was reorganized, and a total of 13th battalions of cavalry and 4th battalions of infantry were formed, with cavalry of about 10,000 and infantry of each battalion of about 8,000.
The 13th Battalion cavalry were almost 130,000 cavalrymen. In addition to the more than 95,000 cavalry brought back by Liu Ji from the Cangxiong tribe, Liu Ji forcibly incorporated more than 35,000 cavalrymen from the Cangxiong tribe captured by the war in Xishankou.
The more than 35,000 cavalrymen of the Cangxiong tribe finally eliminated more than 1,000 nobles and cavalry officers. In the end, almost 34,000 people signed a letter of loyalty, accepted a letter of letter of title, and joined the cavalry of Chengyin Army. The letter of title was the lives of more than 1,000 nobles and cavalry officers of the Cangxiong tribe.
Liu Ji did not waste all of this thousand soul value, so he absorbed it, making Liu Ji's soul value reach 1715 points, which is enough for Liu Ji to summon first-class generals. However, Liu Ji was not so anxious and was preparing to accumulate more soul value before summoning new generals. Now these generals under Liu Ji's command are barely enough for the time being.
Each battalion has four cavalry under its jurisdiction, with about 2,500 cavalrymen in each unit. The commanders of the 13th battalion are Yang Zaixing, Zhou Kai, Hua Xiong, Su Lie, Wu Liang, Qu Tutong, Le Jin, Yu Jin, Chen Wu, Pan Zhang, Zang Ba, Cao Xiu and Yan Yan.
Considering the cavalry's need to assault, the thirteen cavalry commanders were either top-level generals or first-class generals.
The fifty-two cavalry captains of the 13th Battalion, including twenty-seven newly summoned third-rate generals, including nine second-rate generals, Guo Si, Fan Chou, Li Jue, Cao Xing, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Hou Cheng, Hua Rong and Zhu Tong, as well as the sixteen third-rate generals, Hao Meng, Tang Mei, Dong Xian, Lei Bo, You Tong, Li Fangliang, Yang Xiong, Cheng Lian, Luo Fang, Xue Liang, Li Wan, Li Xiang, Gao Ming, Gao Liang, Su Cheng and Su Feng.
The Fourth Battalion infantry was formed by integrating the original seven infantry and more than 25,000 Jin slaves brought back from the Cangxiong tribe.
Each battalion has four infantry troops under its jurisdiction, each with about two thousand people. The infantry commanders of the fourth battalion are Le Yi, Wei Xiaokuan, Gao Shun and Xu Rong.
The sixteen infantry captains of the fourth battalion were Lei Heng, Yang Xiong, Shi Xiu, Xie Yingdeng, Wang Junke, and the eleven third-rate generals, Liu Pi, Gong Du, Han Tao, Mu Shun, Tong Wei, Tong Meng, Zhang Shuo, Huang Kun, Cao Lin, Ding Liang and Ma Zhan.
The guard troops around Liu Ji were still in infantry organization with a thousand people, but Liu Jisheng was given the commander of the guard camp, and the commander was still Chen Hao, and he also regarded Wang Bodang and He Ruobi, two first-class military generals, Cheng Yi, Zhao Ben, Zhang Guiba, Zhang Guihou, Zhang Guibian, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Ding Feng and Jiang Qin, as two second-class military generals, were temporarily appointed as the guards' captains.
The reason why Liu Ji left so many military generals in the Guards was, on the one hand, to expand the Guards in the next step, and on the other hand, to supplement the main generals who died in each battalion and division at any time.
After Liu Ji returned to Chengyin City, he summoned forty-one generals at once. Together with the previous generals, Liu Ji's generals had nearly a hundred, but for the Chengyin Army, which had more than 160,000, the number of generals was still insufficient.
Now all the cavalry and infantry in each unit are not equipped with Sima. Once on the battlefield, any leading lieutenant in the army will be killed. Although there are still lieutenants on the top of them who can temporarily command, they should still send a new lieutenant to take over the entire unit's troops as soon as possible. At this time, it is the turn of the lieutenant in the Guards camp to take action.
The 13th Battalion of the Chengyin Army, the 10th Battalion of cavalry were stationed in the grassland north of the Xishankou, protecting about 150,000 old, weak, women and children of Hu people, as well as a large number of livestock.
Zhou Kai and Huaxiong battalions were stationed in the pasture south of the Xishan Pass, protecting about 30,000 Hu people's elderly, young, young, and children, as well as a large number of cattle, horses and sheep.
Only Su Lie's battalion's cavalry was stationed near Chengyin City, protecting nearly 30,000 elderly, young, women and children of Jin people in Chengyin City and around. At the same time, two infantrymen were stationed outside Chengyin City.
