Chapter 1381 map
"This is the Mucuo, the leader of the thousand-household family of the first thousand cavalry of the foreign cavalry." The officers of the Hutchison Military Training Department introduced to Zhang Xianzhong. They cooperated well and knew that Zhang Xianzhong was interested in suppressing the leaders of the foreign cavalry, so before the introduction, they asked these leaders to line up like soldiers waiting for their superiors to review.
No one resisted, nor did anyone disobey. These different looks, but most of them were sparse heads and messy hair. The short and short men with shaved hair in the middle did not show fierceness or their eyes were fierce. On the contrary, they were honest and respectful. Many of them were like children, with curious eyes full of charm.
"I, Lao Zhang, are polite."
Zhang Xianzhong glanced at the Qianhu family and gave it back.
The organization of the Fan Cavalry was not imitated by Hutchison, and the organization of the Hutchison Mercedes Army was a bit complicated. It is necessary to consider the construction plan of the current team, squadron, company, battalion, regiment, regiment, and division after repeated weighing and after repeated reforms.
In fact, decades or even more than a hundred years later, the European army organization has reached the current organizational method of merchant army.
The square formation, musketeers, artillery, and breastplate cavalry were the mainstream of war for the next two hundred years. The Shang army was one step ahead and experienced continuous tests of actual combat.
The foreign cavalry did not need it. They were purely cold weapons and light cavalry. The Military Control Commission provided them with some eliminated leather armor and cotton armor, but the number was not large. After all, the peasant soldiers in each trestle also had to be trained, and the teams among the farmers generally also provided cotton armor or leather armor.
This is a level that even the Ming border troops could not reach, but Hutchison could be easily done.
Of course, it is impossible to be too generous to the foreign cavalry. After all, these cavalry only undertake low-intensity combat tasks, mainly harassment and defense. Most of the Russians are promoted by small groups of Cossacks, and they are easily blocked by large groups of foreign cavalry.
"This is the Baerhu Qianhu, the second thousand cavalry." The officer of the Military Training Department continued to introduce that another short-legged axle man came up and respectfully saluted Zhang Xianzhong with the military salute of the Shang regiment army.
"Well, the thousand households are good." Zhang Xianzhong gave a military salute, and Baerhu retreated to the side with satisfaction.
There are five thousand cavalry here, each of which belongs to the five thousand households. Three are Solon people, one is Oroqen people and the other is Ewenki people.
They all belong to small tribes in the Liaodong region, and the Sorens are relatively more common, but they are mainly concentrated in the Heilongjiang River Basin near Changbai Mountain, where there are Sorens all the way to Sakhalin Island.
The Saurons had the most and the most miserable. During the expansion of Jurchens, a large number of Saurons were pulled onto the Jurchens' chariots, and the most casualties were the Saurons.
The Sorens were also very contradictory. On the one hand, they hated the Jurchen regime very much and always wanted to rebel. On the other hand, they were also proud and proud of their identity as the Eight Banners of Manchuria.
The Qing regime also attached great importance to the Soren people, and used them and the Jurchen Manchus to defend their hometown in the Northeast. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was a complete Sorenma team, which was also the only force that the Eight Banners of Manchuria had taken to take action. Of course, it later disappeared into the long river of history.
There are three Sorenma teams in front of us, one Ewenk and the other Oroqen.
The horse team must be dominated by cavalry from various tribes, but it is impossible that these three major tribes are many small tribes in the northeast, and quite a few tribes are not famous at all. However, they also have their own heritage, live by rivers and grass, mainly fishing and hunting, and they will also grazing. The Hu, Lun, Bei and Er grasslands are very large, and the Barhu Mongols only occupy a small part.
Below a thousand households is a cavalry with a deputy, thousands of households and five hundred people. Below a thousand households there are two thousand households, ten hundred households, and one hundred households are divided into two general flags, each leading fifty cavalry, fifty cavalry is divided into five teams, and one team of ten cavalry is divided into ten cavalry.
This organization is actually very familiar to the people of these tribes, and it is very similar to the border cavalry of the Ming Dynasty and the Mongol military system.
Zhang Xianzhong introduced several staff officers to meet these thousands of officials.
Since Zhang Xianzhong first determined the tone, these foreign families were very respectful and had a very good attitude.
Of course, behind them were the elders or leaders of their respective tribes. Hutchison has established many military stations along the Kruren River and the Barhu grassland, and there are often large troops here.
The Barhu grassland is very close to the Choba Mountains in Outer Mongolia, that is, the Hutchison Mo North Road in Kulun, and there are often officers and soldiers protecting the straight road to station and patrol the Hulun Lake area. Whether it is the dragon cavalry or the hunting cavalry, it has shocked and threatened these tribes.
Zhang Xianzhong also knew that the Barhu Mongols were willing to set up cavalry to serve on behalf of Hutchison, but the Military Division only allowed these Barhu Mongols to trade in the Trade City, and were hired as escorts. They also hired their people to do things for the Military Division, but they did not agree to them forming a decent cavalry team.
Not only the Barhu Mongols, but also the northern part of the desert, they were all treated the same.
Even decades later, a hundred years later, the Mongols could only join the army as individuals and would not form an independent Mongol-dominated army.
These small tribes are fine. Their clans may not necessarily have more than 10,000 people. Although the Sorens team has three thousand teams, they come from dozens of tribes of all sizes. They will have conflicts and disagreements. Each tribe has its own interests. Although they are all Sorens, they are still in a serious state of division, and until hundreds of years later, no heroes have appeared to make this nation a whole.
The staff members exchanged a few greetings with several thousand households. Their attitude was relatively gentle, which was much less pressure than Zhang Xianzhong put on these alien officers.
"The Hulun Lake is on the left, and the lower left is Qiaoba Mountain, which is also the place where our Mobei straight road is located. The lower left is Anguli Nao, and the lower right is a large mountain, which is the old Daning place, which is also the main gathering place of the Chahar people now. Their Chahanhot is also there. From the Daning place, it is 700 to 800 miles north and south, more than 600 miles east and west, and more than 2,000 miles in radius. This large area of grass is lush, mixed with the mountains and dense forests of the Xing'an Mountains, and a large area of sand was originally the place where the Fuyu Wei was located. Later in the third year of Jiajing, the 15th generation grandson of Hesar led his troops to move here, and this place became the territory of the Korqin people."
Under the stunned eyes of a group of alien officers, the staff officer's fingers moved to the upper right and continued: "There is the Heilongjiang River Basin, which is also what the Baerhu people call Qiqihar, which means the frontier of the pasture. If you walk there, you will see the big river and dense forest. It is not suitable for Mongolians to grazle, so it is called the frontier of the pasture."
The staff officer drew a circle on the map, and finally pointed to Qiqihar and later Tongliao places, saying: "Our mission is to open the way for the army. In addition, when the army advances to the Liao area, we must continue to go north and go directly to the Korqin place. Do you understand?"
Several foreign families answered in uneven times.
They don't understand it very well, and it's hard to understand it.
Why can a place that takes thousands of miles to travel a vast area of one or two months or even longer be condensed on a small piece of parchment in front of you?
This is really strange, even magical.
But this map is undoubtedly accurate!
Not only are there place names, but also the manifestation of mountains. The heights are obviously high in the Greater Khingan Mountains. People from various tribes often shuttle through the mountains and pastures, and are very familiar with the terrain. As the staff members point their fingers, in addition to the dense mountains, forests and rivers, the name of the Nuergandusi was also quite accurate and without any errors.
Of course, it is impossible for these thousand families of foreign races to know how to see the proportions and determine the distance from the map, but they also have the places where these tribes are located, plus obvious signs everywhere, such as the place where Hulun Lake is located, the core nomadic land of the Barhu people, and the distribution of these small tribes from the Klulun River to the Nenjiang River and Heilongjiang River. From the map, there is no mistake as long as everyone has visited.
These thousand households were selected and were originally elites in tribes with outstanding abilities. They had already traveled to many places and received a lot of information.
You should know that the tribes in the completely closed state are quite barbaric and backward. They lack language skills. Their usual communication is mostly related to fishing and hunting, without civilization or history, and only some chaotic myths passed down by shamans and old people.
It is also quite difficult to become an elite figure in such a tribe, which means that his talent is quite outstanding.
It is these great men who can make their mark and become the leaders of the foreign cavalry.
But these alien elites felt the complete crushing gap at this time.
They had long known the strength of Hutchison that everything the other party had was something that their entire tribe could not compare. The mature military industry chain, the art of war, and the business operations were like art, the ability to build cities and roads, and everything was a comprehensive crushing gap.
But judging from the small map in front of me, this gap is so big that they can't imagine.
"What do you think?" The staff officers closed the picture and found that some of the names on the picture include the future Hutchison Recovery of Nuer Gandusi were just a conceivable stage, and there may be specific actions in several years or ten years. There is no need to expose the target too early and alarm the tribes leading the names of various garrisons along the way.
"The main force of the army is directly attacking Chahanhot from the right side." Zhang Xianzhong explained in a purely military tone: "That is, the Southern Army, our left Army is the Northern Army, and the two armies are fighting in clamps. Because it is to fight an annihilation war, the Southern Army's advance is mainly stable, attracting the main force of the Chahars and their allies step by step. The Northern Army is mainly dragoons, hunting cavalry and light artillery regiments, and the goal is to move quickly and quickly hold the Chahars from north of Chahanhot. Our goal is to appear in the defense of the Korqin people along the mountains. It is not to ask the Chahars to escape from here, nor to ask the Korqin people to escape. At the same time, it puts pressure on the Korqin people, and does not ask them to concentrate their troops to fight us with the Chahars..."
Baerhu Qianhu said: "This is unlikely. The Korqin people and the Chahar people have always been enemies. They would rather turn to the Jurchens than cooperate with Lin Danhan."
"But we are Han people." Zhang Xianzhong smiled and said, "The Jurchens and the Mongols can be called the same clothes and speech, but there is not much difference. There is no difficulty in cooperating with each other. We Han people and Jurchens are not the same tribe at all. The Korqin people can turn to the Jurchens, but when the Mongols are attacked by us Han people, they can't tell which side they are on."
