The next day, there was nothing wrong, but I just found that a Khitan people crossed the river, as if checking the terrain. The Song army's reconnaissance cavalry approached, and the Khitans ran back to the opposite side of the river. Ma Huaide had just arrived and did not send a detective cavalry to cross the river to check the movements of the Khitans, and did not know what they were going to do.

At noon, Ma Huaide sent a military order to ask his subordinates to introduce familiar generals to the army. Because if the recommended person makes a mistake or is incompetent, the recommended person will be jointly and severally responsible, and this matter is not something that can be recommended casually.

Meng Xuezhao read the military order and shook his head. He was a farmer and had never been in the army before he arrived at the military academy. Who knew? Most of the people he knew in the military academy had been incorporated into the army, and no one introduced him.

It was almost evening, and Meng Xuezhao called Tan Li to ask him about his current situation.

Tan Li crossed his hands and said, "Today, the Khitan army did not cross the river, but from morning to night, there were continuous scattered Khitans coming. There were discoveries within five miles north and south of the Ganning Army. At last, I thought that the Khitans might have to check the terrain and choose the location to cross the river again."

Meng Xuejiao nodded. This must be like this. He defeated the Khitans once, and they must choose another place. The Ganning army was on the bank of the Yellow River, and the troops coming were all besieged and arranged, so the Khitans' target must be here.

After thinking about it, Meng Xuezhai asked Tan Li carefully about the situation today. I asked clearly how many people from Khitan crossed the river, where they were, where there were more Khitans and where there were fewer Khitans.

Finally, Meng Xuejue said: "From today's situation, the Khitans may not cross the river from us anymore. Most of the places they come to today are the north of the city, and they may choose there. Tomorrow's scout, you can also send a few people to the north of the city to prevent it in time."

Tan Li sang the promise with his hands crossed.

Meng Xuezhao said: "We don't know how many people came to the Khitan, who was the commander, and what they were going to do. Now there are only eight regiments with less than 30,000 people in Ganning Juncheng. To be honest, this battle is not easy. These days, it's harder, so don't miss anything."

Tan Li agreed and said goodbye to the handsome tent.

Meng Xuezhao stood up and looked at the dim sky outside the tent. Ma Huaide came. Meng Xuezhao thought he was carrying a full military-level command system, but he didn't know that he had brought three generals by his side. Such a command system was a bit joking. If the Song army had been in the past, it would have been fine. The command was relied on the commander to directly command the commanders with their confidants around him. This is not the case now.

Meng Xuejiao Institute, all the food and grass officials, staff officers and others are waiting to connect with their superiors. The two levels of the resultant and the army are now empty. What should we do if we fight this battle? Ma Huaide comes, but the corresponding organization does not come. What's the matter?

Ma Huaide was temporarily recruiting his commander, carefully looking at the list reported by the leaders of each regiment today. His army commander commander, without these generals under his command, according to the current system, is useless. He must find the generals as soon as possible. Even if the division level is empty, he must first establish his commander. With the commander, he is the real name.

After reading everything, Ma Huaide said to Yang Tu on the side: "The leaders of all the groups have reported to each other, but the Meng Party has not reported it alone. Although the Meng Party made some contributions yesterday, isn't it taking me seriously?"

Yang Tu said: "The Taiwei, that's not the case. Meng Dang was originally a reincarnated man, but he was admitted to the military academy with others last winter. He had never been in the imperial guards, so where could anyone recommend it? Most of the people he met in the military academy were already in the imperial guards who had been trained."

Ma Huaide thought for a while and said, "I forgot about this festival. Speaking of which, Meng Dang is such a great person. He became the leader of the league in one year."

Yang Tu said: "Of course that's the case. When I was in the military academy, who didn't know this person? I was just going to be a subordinate officer, but I didn't expect that every time there was an exam, I would be the first, and there was never an exception. In the end, I became the leader of the regiment. It was also a legend in the military academy."

Ma Huaide nodded and pondered for a while and said, "Yesterday he discovered that the Khitan crossed the river in time and won a victory to boost the morale of the army. It seems that this person's intention to fight will be of great use in the future."

After saying that, he put down the official documents in his hand, frowned and said, "Now there are not all officers, and I, the commander, have only a name. After reading the candidates reported by the leaders of each regiment, there are still fewer people. I can't get all the staff for a while. Alas, it's really not easy to train an army."

Yang Tu said: "Taiwei, I'm sorry to say it. The most important thing now is that the Shuaisi cannot be without people. If there is really a shortage of people, it is good to draw a group of officers from each regiment first. Even if it's just a battle, reconnaissance, and food, it's good to establish the most basic institutions such as "strike," he said.

Ma Huaide shook his head: "The people under Shuaisi must be familiar with obeying orders so that they can use their fingers when fighting like arm and fingers. The people of each regiment do things below and get transferred to Shuaisi. What's the use of the things below if they are delayed?"

Yang Tu said: "There are many things that the commander does not order, and the regiments below make their own decisions, which are often inconsistent. When it comes to war, it will inevitably be messy. Even if it is not a common practice, even if the two armies are fighting, the missions of each regiment must be clearly distinguished. Otherwise, it will be difficult to panic in the war, and it will be troublesome at that time. If our eight regiments do not distinguish, it will be difficult to coordinate during war."

Ma Huaide thought for a while and said, "What you said makes sense. Forget it, I'll think about it again and make a decision."

Yang Tu said that he was trained for a long time in a military principal, which is different from Ma Huaide, who only learned in a short time. After the training, the command of the imperial guards focuses on the system, the system, not the matter of a general. No matter how powerful the commander is, he must have a command system, otherwise the commander under the opponent may be disabled. If there is a shortage of people, he will temporarily withdraw personnel. Shuaisi cannot stay so empty all the time.

When Yang Tu left, Ma Huaide took out a book of documents and carefully studied them. This was the organizational structure of the imperial guards issued by Du Zhongxiao when he was about to leave. How many personnel does a command department require, which institutions are divided into, what each institution does, how to manage it in peacetime, and how to command in wartime. Everything is clear. When he was in Hejian Prefecture, Ma Huaide asked the other military leaders for advice and knew the general principles.

However, this command system is too far from the previous imperial guards, and Ma Huaide is not familiar with it, and he has some doubts in his heart. Everything is urgent, and the Khitans are going to kill each other on the Yellow River and will come over at any time. At this time, use a command system that they are not familiar with. What should I do when I panic at the critical moment?

Sighing, Ma Huaide stood up and walked around the house. He had been in the army for many years and fought with Dangxiang on Shaanxi Road. He was still very familiar with the previous command of the imperial guards. Although there was no parent school around him, it was a bit inconvenient, but there would be no big mistakes. If you want to use a new command system and transfer officers from the regiments below, you would be a little unsure. These people are people in the regiments below, and they would connect with them and put themselves in vain? How can you command the regiments after sending their orders through these people?

When he arrived at the door and looked at the bright moon in the sky, Ma Huaide sighed deeply.
