With his own soldiers, Yun Chao galloped all the way north, passing many teams heading north.
These teams are all new recruits, almost all fishermen from all over the coast. Like Yunchao, they all go to Dengzhou.
They are all sailors recruited by the Yun family army.
The Dawu Dynasty had a navy in Dengzhou, but the number was not too large. There was only one army, that is, five battalions.
According to Yun Chao's order, as soon as the Yun Family Army took over Dengzhou, they attacked the Dengzhou Navy with lightning speed. Except for a few ships that escaped, most of the officers, soldiers and ships became Yun Family soldiers. Trophies of the army.
The third division of Jia Mancang was responsible for occupying Dengzhou, one of the most powerful divisions in the Yun family army.
The reason why Jia Mancang was put in charge of the Dengzhou operation was mainly for the Dengzhou Navy.
Jia Mancang did not disappoint Yun Chao. The execution ability of the Third Division was awesome. Even though it was an army, it still completed the mission successfully.
Acting with the Third Division, there are also a group of backbones from the Staff Office and Propaganda Office, including Huang Qiang, Chief of Staff Division, also known as San Haozi.
The Staff Office is responsible for transforming the Navy's structure, and the Propaganda Office is responsible for transforming the Navy's thinking.
The Yun Family Army was quite tolerant of the Dengzhou Navy, unlike its treatment of the Army.
As long as it is not a heinous crime, the person will generally not be beheaded.
Of course, those who should be reformed through labor still need to be reformed through labor.
Even if you want to use some people in the navy, you can't make them feel how important they are.
It is not too late to re-educate the poor and lower-middle peasants for a period of time, and then re-enable them after their thinking has changed.
When it comes to ordinary officers and soldiers at the bottom, the Yun Family Army's policy is even more relaxed. Except for some who have unqualified physical fitness, most of them can stay and continue to serve.
Ordinary naval officers and soldiers are oppressed and basically do not need to undergo labor reform. As long as the propaganda team arms their minds with advanced ideas, they can become qualified Yun family navy.
Yun Chao planned to use the original Dengzhou Navy as the skeleton and recruit a group of coastal fishermen to build up the Yun Family Navy Navy first and then slowly expand it.
When Yunchao was renovating the shipyard in Jiaozhou Bay, Jia Mancang and San Haozi had already completed the first phase of the renovation of the Dengzhou Navy.
Yunchao is now here to check and accept the results.
…
A few days later.
Yun Chao arrived at the naval base in Dengzhou.
Yun Chao was speechless when he looked at the hundreds of ugly broken boats in the harbor.
Is this the Yun family navy that will dominate the world in the future?
In the current situation, it is estimated that even the navy in the south of Dawu Dynasty cannot defeat it, right?
When Jia Mancang saw Yun Chao's bad expression, his little heart was beating fast with fear.
"Brother Chao, you've been working hard all the way, so let's take a rest before reviewing."
Yun Chao glared at Jia Mancang: "Tell the truth, kid, how many ships did the Dengzhou Navy escape?"
Jia Mancang felt aggrieved and wanted to cry: "Brother Chao, I really didn't lie to you. Most of the ships of the Dengzhou Navy are here. The court boasted that the Dengzhou Navy was so awesome. Who knew it turned out to be nothing."
The third rake next to him also quickly explained: "Brother Chao, Mancang is right, the Dengzhou Navy is already rotten."
After the two guys complained, Yun Chao finally realized how bad the Dengzhou Navy of the Great Wu Dynasty was.
The Dengzhou Navy, with a quota of 2,500, had nearly half of its free pay taken by officers at all levels.
According to the former commander of the Dengzhou Navy, there was no maritime power in this area that could compete with the Imperial Navy, and just half of the people would be enough.
If it weren't for the worry that there was really no way to explain, the number of people in the Dengzhou Navy could be even smaller.
At worst, it's just a matter of hiring local fishermen as sailors to do business, as long as the ship can sail normally.
In addition to being severely underpaid, the Dengzhou Navy's combat effectiveness was also appallingly weak.
In recent years, let alone fighting, the number of training sessions has been very few.
The main job of the Dengzhou Navy now is shipping and doing business.
Across the Bohai Bay, opposite is the Khitan Kingdom.
The Khitan had furs, ginseng, war horses and other supplies that the Wu Dynasty lacked, and the Wu Dynasty had tea, grain, Jiangnan beauties, etc. that the Khitan lacked.
Both parties benefit from each other, each gets what they need, makes a lot of money, and eats with a mouth full of oil.
Of course, the Dengzhou Navy could not afford such a huge profit, and the main gains went into the pockets of the court bosses.
Even if a few generals of the Dengzhou Navy just drank soup, they would still be full of fat. The value of the belongings that the Yun family army found from their homes in Dengzhou City alone was at least one hundred thousand taels.
This does not include the things they shipped back to their hometowns.
Yun Chao will not retain the commanding officer of the Dengzhou Navy.
When it was adapted, most of the people left behind were middle- and lower-level officials.
The Dengzhou Navy originally had one corps commander and five battalion commanders. Only three battalion commanders were retained by the Yun family army. The remaining three guys were raped in front of all the officers and soldiers of the navy at a public trial. .
It must be said that the senior generals of the Yun Family Army are very capable of learning and have learned many skills from Yun Chao.
For example, Jia Mancang and San Haizi played the game very well when they pulled a group to beat a group.
Seeing their colleagues being killed, the three guys left behind would definitely not dare to make a mistake.
If you don't work hard, you might follow in the footsteps of several of your colleagues. Who wouldn't be afraid?
…
Low combat effectiveness and few warships are the current situation of the Yun family navy.
Faced with this situation, Yun Chao had no choice but to call together the naval generals at all levels and hold a mobilization meeting.
Encourage them to overcome difficulties, work hard to train water warfare skills, and strive to become an invincible warrior with powerful combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
To the surprise of all the senior leaders of the Yun Family Army, Yun Chao actually asked the Chief of Staff, San Haozi, to serve as the division commander of the navy!
In the eyes of generals at all levels of the Yun Family Army, the Navy is just an auxiliary to the Army. The importance of the Navy cannot be compared with that of the Army.
Unexpectedly, Yun Chao not only increased the original quota of 2,500 Dengzhou Navy personnel to 10,000.
He also dispatched his own capable general San Huazi to serve as the commander of the navy.
Although the chief of staff was at the same level as the division commander, San Haozi's rank was promoted from colonel to senior colonel. After Wang Shitou, he became the second senior colonel of the Yun family army!
However, in the eyes of most of the generals of the Yun Family Army, the Three Rakes rose up and down covertly.
In name, he became a powerful teacher, but in fact, he was nothing like that. He was just sitting on the bench!
I don’t know why San Huzi offended Brother Chao. Did he get too carried away when he was the Chief of Staff and got carried away?
Of course, it is impossible for Yun Chao not to emphasize the importance of the navy to everyone.
However, in the eyes of most of the senior leaders of the Yun Family Army, they were just trying to comfort San Haozi.
From the staff office of the Yun Family Army Center to being transferred to the sleepy Dengzhou Port, I should comfort him no matter what.
Three rakes—finished!
