In the current state, Hebei's other troops, including the Shenwu Army, have complex structures and are not affiliated with each other, so unified command will be difficult.
Faced with this situation, Su Yonglin had some ideas and quickly put them into practice.
He added a command structure at the corps level, which was considered the highest military organization at present. He appointed himself as commander-in-chief of the corps, and incidentally canceled the military number of the Shengjie Army given to him by Zhao Kaishan.
At the same time, he also canceled the military numbers of Sun Tzu Yi's Shenwu Army, and also canceled the military numbers above each army.
From then on, the entire military situation was that there were only corps under the corps, regiments under the corps, and battalion-level combat units below. With level-by-level management and level-by-level orders, unnecessary wrangling and disputes were reduced. Clarify the scope of responsibility and who is responsible.
Su Yonglin appointed himself the commander-in-chief of the corps, and gave the position of deputy commander-in-chief to Sun Ziyi, and further incorporated the five armies under his Shenwu Army into the formation of Su Yonglin's corps for unified command.
Sun Ziyi had no objection to this and quickly accepted it.
After discussing with Sun Tzu Yi and seeking his approval, Su Yonglin set up the military numbers of Wu Yi, Wu Ce, Shen Rui, Shen Jie and Wei Lie for the five armies under the original Shenwu Army, and canceled the original military numbers. .
Each army may increase or decrease the number of troops, and the overall establishment will be reduced to 10,000.
Military combatants need to select the best soldiers from a large number of mixed military personnel to stay, and the rest will all be transferred to the auxiliary army establishment to clarify the soldiers' responsibilities and increase the degree of professionalism.
Fight when you need to fight, take care of chores when you need to do them, and your responsibilities are clear.
More than 1,000 cavalrymen from Sun Tzu's Rebel Army who were scrapped together after the war were also individually mobilized by Su Yonglin and incorporated into the Huben Camp, expanding the combat effectiveness of the Huben Camp and becoming the cavalry force of the entire regiment.
Su Yonglin searched here and there again, choosing soldiers with strong bodies and powerful legs to serve as cavalry, and gave them war horses, thus completing the cavalry establishment of 7,000 people.
Su Yonglin believed that cavalry must be used together to make sense. Each army retains a small number of sentinel knights for spying on the battlefield, while most of the remaining cavalry must be gathered together and organized separately to become an independent strategic force.
This cavalry regiment is still relatively young, but as long as there is time and training for more than half a year, it will definitely have a good look, which will definitely greatly enhance the cavalry combat effectiveness of Su Yonglin's regiment.
Having said that, with so many infantry, they could only make up a total of 7,000 cavalry, which itself proved that it was very difficult to train cavalry from the mainland of the Central Plains.
Moreover, the consumption was also very high. After calculation, the material consumption of these seven thousand cavalry could be confirmed to be five or six times that of the general infantry. Su Yonglin calculated carefully and made various savings, but he could not reduce the expenditure much.
Hard expenditure cannot be reduced.
This further strengthened Su Yonglin's determination to seize the grasslands, rebuild horse farms and train a large number of cavalry in the future. In the wars of the next few hundred years, the cavalry will play an important strategic role and is an absolutely indispensable strategic offensive force.
After this major reorganization, the entire Su Yonglin Corps was officially established.
The entire corps has ten armies with a total strength of 100,000, which is the main force of the Hebei army under Su Yonglin.
These 100,000 people have a relatively strict command system. From top to bottom, the command system is quite clear, and there are responsible persons at each level.
Su Yonglin copied almost all the military systems of the original Shengjie Army to the five armies of the original Shenwu Army, including the three meals a day system, and launched a large-scale training based on this.
These 100,000 people will become Su Yonglin's absolute support against Wanyan Liang in the future, and will launch an earth-shattering strategic decisive battle with the main force of the Jin Army under Wanyan Liang.
In addition, Su Yonglin reorganized the other landlords' armed forces into thirty-six battalions according to their regions of origin.
Each battalion was assigned a strength of 2,000 men, with a commander and deputy commander. The total strength of this part of the army was 72,000 men.
Other soldiers will follow the rules and either go home to farm or join the auxiliary army to do some chores for regular soldiers, be responsible for logistics support, etc.
They are also under the command of Su Yonglin's regiment, but unlike the main force, they are an independent battalion independent of the ten main armies. They are stationed in various states and counties and only listen to Su Yonglin's personal orders.
They do not have a clear level-by-level organization and command system like the main force of the corps, nor do they have superior officers. They rely entirely on Su Yonglin's personal prestige to unite.
Su Yonglin did not give them any military establishment or command strength above the battalion level, mainly because he did not believe that this group of people could really command an army of more than 2,000 people for coordinated operations.
Currently, in the land of Hebei, Su Yonglin is the only one who can coordinate and command the entire army with his military prestige.
These local armies who come from different regions and pursue different interests have nothing in common except being anti-gold.
Therefore, Su Yonglin's personal military prestige will become their greatest common denominator, and only Su Yonglin can command them and make them obey orders.
Setting up a regiment or corps-level command structure at the top is simply to make yourself uncomfortable and increase the difficulty of command.
Therefore, it is better to simply start the command from the battalion level and directly flatten the management. This can also increase Su Yonglin's personal power and will not affect the overall command situation of the entire Hebei Liberation Army.
In this way, Su Yonglin clarified the organization of the entire army under his control in Hebei in a very short period of time. Together with the troops directly under his personal control, the Hebei branch of the Liberation Army of 180,000 people was completely reorganized.
By February 17, the establishment of Su Yonglin's regiment was officially completed, and Hebei's military situation suddenly became clear.
Su Yonglin also streamlined the original training methods of the Shengjie Army and created a simplified version for use by independent battalions.
Because they were unable to receive three meals a day as generous treatment as the main force of the Corps and could only maintain the status quo, Su Yonglin called on them to train twice a day, morning and evening, for at least an hour each time, to ensure that the army could receive the most basic training. To enhance the combat effectiveness of the army.
In addition, he integrated all the original logistics personnel of Sun Tzu Yi's department into the five major logistics departments, achieving a complete merger of the two armies and coordinating the management of all logistics affairs.
As a result, the entire Corps' logistics affairs became more organized.
In order to promote the construction of each army faster, Su Yonglin transferred some instructors from the five main armies into the five armies of the original Shenwu Army to assist the military chief in military management.
Of course, the instructors of these five armies are mainly responsible for interpreting military regulations and military laws and supervising the implementation of military regulations and laws. They do not have other tasks like the instructors within the original Shengjie Army.
Su Yonglin had clearly told them this in the meeting, and would not go into more in-depth content for the time being.
The main contradiction in the current situation is ethnic contradiction, not class contradiction.
Before the land in the north is calmed down, don't get involved in anything too in-depth. Let's maintain peace on the surface, unite all the forces that can be united to fight against Jin, and make the elimination of the Jin Kingdom the first task.
In order to implement this strategy, Su Yonglin only carried out land reform and political reform within the scope of his own army and the new rural area of influence he controlled.
The soldiers who joined the five main armies gave priority to the refugees who had lost their land, so that they could easily arrange their families to the new rural areas in northern Shandong, stabilize their basic base, and invest large sums of money to cultivate the future fire.
It is no secret that there are two completely different political ecologies inside and outside the new countryside.
But in the eyes of the old and new officials appointed by Su Yonglin, these places belonged to Su Yonglin's personal property and were private kingdoms occupied by the troops he controlled.
Su Yonglin did not infringe on the interests of the powerful landlords, so the powerful landlords would not infringe on the interests of Su Yonglin. He had big fists, so what he took would naturally belong to him, and others would not dare to touch it.
Others don't care what he does in his own private kingdom, because they also have their own private kingdoms, as long as they don't offend.
The current situation is that Su Yonglin has temporarily built a small-scale paradise. If he wants to expand the size and population of this paradise, there is still a long, long way to go.
