17 Chapter Seventeen: Xin Wangyi's military system and changes in Tokyo(1/2)

This surrender had a chain reaction, "Hulala..." All the soldiers, who had been frightened by tens of thousands of animals and had no morale, immediately threw away their weapons, hugged their heads, and knelt on the ground.

Throughout the war, the rebels suffered almost no losses except for the loss of more than a thousand people at the beginning. Not only that, they also gained more than 20,000 young and middle-aged Han people.

The 30,000 young and middle-aged Han people who followed Jin Bing were all slaves of Jin Bing. Their country was destroyed and their families were destroyed, and their lives were threatened by Jin Bing at any time. When they saw the rebels coming, they immediately defected or fled. Most of them surrendered to the rebels.

, which increased the reserve strength of the rebel army a lot.

After talking about the battle, Zhao Zhen smiled and nodded to everyone, and then told about his plan to conquer cities and gain territory around the Taihang Mountains.

Due to his distrust of King Xin Zhao Zhen and the order from Emperor Gaozong Zhaogou to let him go south, Wang Yan led the elite Eight-Character Army south to defect to Zongze. Perhaps because he still had some hope for King Xin, Wang Yan didn't take it seriously.

Everything was done. Before he left, he asked Fu Xuan and Jiao Wentong, the rebel leaders who were willing to stay, to bring 100,000 people to defect to Zhao Zhen. The Prince of the Song Dynasty 17

Since there is no effective force of the Eight-Character Army, the current situation of King Xin's Yijun is very unfavorable. Now King Xin's Yijun has only captured Leping. If it wants to develop, it must attack the territory and deal with the encirclement and suppression by the Jin soldiers.

"We want to attack the city and seize the territory, use the mountains as our rear support, and fight against the Jin soldiers. After defeating 10,000 elite Jin soldiers this time, the Jin Kingdom will definitely not give up. Now their heavy troops are still near Bianliang, fighting with General Zongze.

The army is in a stalemate. In the future, the Jin soldiers will definitely send heavy troops to encircle and suppress us. Therefore, we must now build a secret camp deep in the mountains, open up wasteland to grow food, attack cities at the foot of the mountains, and establish our territory." After Zhao Zhen said this, everyone was excited.

They all agreed with what he said. In fact, now everyone has a blind sense of obedience to Zhao Zhen, as long as what he says is right.

Once the general strategy is established, what is left is the army system. The army system of the rebel army is very chaotic. They are all called leaders, generals, marshals, etc. Some are called marshals with only a few hundred men, and some are called marshals.

There are thousands of people under the command of the leader. It is really hard to know how many soldiers and horses there are, which gives the commander a headache.

Zhao Zhen thought for a while and then said: "The military system implemented by us in the Song Dynasty is also very chaotic. In order to be simple, our rebel army will set up a simpler military organization. We will change the organization into army, battalion, team, etc.

In the fifth-level establishment of the army, the number of troops must be established in strict accordance with the regulations, so that there will be no disadvantages such as generals not knowing the soldiers, soldiers not knowing the generals, and commanders not knowing the number of soldiers."

The original Forbidden Army in the Northern Song Dynasty was organized into three levels: army and battalion. Generally, each battalion had 500 people, and the maximum number could be 1,000. The army had five battalions, so the number of people in an army was generally between 2,500 and 5,000.

.

Zhao Zhen's idea was improved from the original formation of the Forbidden Army. A team is made up of five people, a team is made up of ten people, a small team is made up of fifty people, a squadron is made up of one hundred people, and a group is made up of five hundred people. As for a battalion

The establishment of the army is two brigades with a total of 1,000 people. One army commands five battalions, which is 5,000 people.

In addition, Zhao Zhen also had to disrupt the organization and reorganize the troops. Using this method to collect prisoners also disrupted the original organization of the Jin Army, which could effectively prevent soldiers from escaping.

After discussing the organization of the army, Zhao Zhen said to Ma Zheng and Zhao Bangjie: "Ma Zheng loves you, Zhao Bangjie loves you, you two are the deputy commander-in-chief on the left and right, and you are the commander-in-chief on the left, and both of you command an army."

.When I'm not around, you two have the final say."

Ma Zheng had been a soldier in the Northwestern Army of the Song Dynasty for his whole life. Among all the rebels, he had the best ability to lead troops in combat. Zhao Bangjie was also a military attache and the original leader of the Wuma Mountain Rebel Army with the highest prestige. They

One of the two is good at fighting, the other can stabilize military morale, and can complement each other and cooperate with each other.

On the fifth day of the occupation of Leping, the surrender and reorganization of the Xinwang Rebel Army was basically completed, and a brand new Xinwang Rebel Army appeared. The entire Xinwang Rebel Army deployed a general commander's battalion and seven armies, with a total of 36,000 horse infantry. Among them, 20,000

There are three thousand infantry troops and thirteen thousand horse troops, all of which consist of one person and two horses.

Including the horses in the rebel army, the robbed horses and the captured war horses, King Xin's rebel army had nearly 30,000 war horses in hand.

Zhao Zhen finally had a powerful horse army, a horse army that could rival the Jin soldiers.

Although Gao Yunfei is afraid of death and is a weakling, he can be regarded as a resourceful person. Due to his planning, countless cattle and horses of the Jin Kingdom were lost to the rebels. Now the high-ranking nobles of the Jin Kingdom hate him to the bone. Gao Yunfei now has no other choice but to

There is no other way out except relying on King Xin.

This person was relatively reliable, and he knew the situation of the Jin soldiers very well, so Zhao Zhen arranged for him to be in his commander's tent, temporarily serving as the commander's adviser and military supervisor.

Zhao Qing'er was appointed by Zhao Zhen as the commander of the personal barracks, commanding the 500 cavalry and 500 infantry in the personal barracks. Zhao Zhen specially established a dragon and wolf army composed entirely of cavalry for Wang Jin to serve as his direct personal soldiers.

military.

Zhao Bangjie and Zhao Songyong, their father and son, established the Golden Tiger Army; Ma Zheng and his fierce general Zhang Ying established the Majia Army; leader Liu Xi led his troops to establish the Shenshan Army; leader Wu Feng led his troops to establish the Fenglei Army; leader Liu Sange led his own troops

Nephew Liu Shan'er founded the Kuangbao Army. These five troops were composed of one battalion of cavalry and four battalions of infantry.

Gao Baoshan led the Khitan general Xiao Deli and the Xiren general Gan Guduo to form a Black Dragon Army composed of surrendered soldiers. They had 2,500 cavalry and 2,500 infantry, and were very strong.

The Xinwang Yijun officially accepted Xinwang Qiansui Zhao Zhen as the commander-in-chief of the rebel army. The rebel army consisted of left and right deputy commanders, left commander Ma Zheng and right commander Zhao Bangjie. There was also a Xinwang personal barracks, with Zhao Qing'er as the commander.

After the formation of more than 30,000 rebel troops was completed, everyone drank and ate meat in Leping City to celebrate. The Prince of the Song Dynasty 17

Early the next morning, the drums beat and the horns sounded! Thirty-six thousand rebels formed a formation in Leping City. They raised the flag and declared King Xin as their commander. With the flag raised, they were officially the rebels of King Xin.

.

The first thing to do when raising a flag is to sacrifice the flag. To sacrifice the flag, cattle and sheep are usually killed, but King Xin Zhao Zhen killed people, and he killed more than a thousand people at one go.

More than a thousand people were real Jurchens, all captured by the rebels during the battle. The soldiers took all the Jurchen prisoners to the river, from the capital to the soldiers, they were all beheaded, leaving no one behind.

Zhao Zhen gave an order, and more than two thousand heads fell to the ground. The corpses and heads were arranged for viewing by the rebels. After seeing the Jin Bing spies who came to investigate from surrounding towns, they all changed their colors in shock and trembled in horror. King Xin

The reputation of the rebel army has spread, and the Jin soldiers in the surrounding towns are very afraid of King Xin's rebel army.

"King Xin... Chitose! Marshal... Chitose!" Everyone's shouts immediately shook the earth, rising and falling like rolling thunder. The soldiers opened their throats and roared with all their strength, fearing that they were not shouting loud enough and showing insufficient loyalty.

Ever since the Jin soldiers invaded, until the Zhao family was taken over by the Jin soldiers, everyone has never seen a royal family that can perform miracles. Even Gaozong Zhao Gou, who proclaimed himself emperor, was also an escapeer! Surrenderer!

But now, everyone finally saw a royal prince who could create miracles. Everyone really respected Zhao Zhen from the bottom of their hearts. Amidst the deafening cheers, Zhao Zhen was a little dizzy. Since possessing this body

Here, for the first time, he tasted the taste of a true king. The feeling of having great power, of killing and seizing everything, of dominating the world and having everything under his control was really inextricable and sinking.

Lost in it.

However, Zhao Zhen is not someone who is intoxicated with the status quo. He knows deeply that now is the time to seize time. Zongze will die in July, and the main force of Jin Bing will change the direction of attack. By then, Jin Bing will be able to divide

Sufficient troops have been deployed to encircle and suppress the rebel army. What Zhao Zhen has to do now is to settle hundreds of thousands of people and expand his territory to expand his strength.

Finally, someone from the left-behind rebels of the Eight-Character Army came, and it was a messenger. The letter was written by Fu Xuan and he wrote a letter to Zhao Zhen, saying congratulations to Wang Chien-year-old for capturing Leping for a great victory, and waiting for the day of His Highness's triumphant return.

Due to the inconvenient transportation, Fu Xuan and Jiao Wentong still don't know about Zhao Zhen's annihilation of 10,000 elite gold soldiers, but they only congratulate Zhao Zhen for winning Leping.

In fact, Zhao Zhen had expected this result. Wang Yan obviously did not pay attention to Zhao Zhen, and even looked down upon him. For Wang Yan, Zhao Gou, who had ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, was his master, a trustworthy king, and he did not know it yet.

Whether it is true or false, King Xin will not pay attention to it.

Unlike Yue Fei, Wang Yan is a true hero who protects his family and country, but no one is perfect, and Wang Yan is a bit small-minded. From the time when Yue Fei and he disagreed and parted ways, until Yue Fei's official title was elevated in the future, Wang Yan

Yan has always had a prejudice against Yue Fei and will never reconcile. However, Yue Fei always praises Wang Yan's achievements when meeting people, and clearly said that he made a mistake in judgment when he was young and energetic. From these places, it can be seen that this Wang Yan is more capable than Yue Fei

Much smaller.

Inheriting Wang Yan's idea, Fu Xuan and Jiao Wentong, who stayed behind in the Taihang Mountains with one hundred thousand people and a small number of soldiers, were not interested in the sudden arrival of King Xin.

But obviously King Xin Zhao Zhen is not an ordinary prince. After leading the rebel army to leave Wuma Mountain, he crossed the mountains and defeated the Jin soldiers and captured Leping City. As more and more people and rebels turned to Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen's soldiers

There were more and more horses. Apparently Fu Xuan and Jiao Wentong also began to pay attention to this rebel who claimed to be King Xin's subordinates.

However, if Zhao Zhen had not led the Wuma Mountain rebels to come to the Taihang Mountains, Fu Xuan and Jiao Wentong would not have stayed. Wang Yan went south to find Zongze, but he actually wanted to go north with the main force of the Song Dynasty and fight back. Let Fu

Xuan and Jiao Wentong stayed to join the Wuma Mountain rebels, which was considered to be the reason why they were all members of the anti-Jin rebels. As for when King Xin Zhao Zhen wanted to annex the remaining troops in Taihang Mountain, Fu Xuan and Jiao Wentong would not be able to give in to each other.

.

Under the leadership of Ma Zheng and Zhao Zhen, the rebel army began systematic military training. In addition to issuing military training strategies to various ministries, Zhao Zhen also placed hundreds of thousands of people in the depths of the Taihang Mountains and on farmland near Leping.

Due to time constraints and lack of food, Zhao Zhen ordered the people to plant a large number of radishes, potatoes and pumpkins. He also sent people to the southern coast to find merchants to buy sweet potato seeds. As for high-yielding corn, Zhao Zhen did not report it.

It's too much to hope for. It is a product of the New World and cannot be obtained now.

With the help of Princess Xin, Zhao Qing'er is finally going to marry King Xin. The reason why Zhao Zhen is so anxious to marry Zhao Qing'er is actually to appease the original members of Wuma Mountain. The women of His Highness King Xin are all from Wuma Mountain.

, then everyone will naturally benefit from it. Zhao Bangjie is even tied to Zhao Zhen's fate, and he will definitely make great efforts for Zhao Zhen in the future.

Han people's marriage customs are very troublesome. First, they need to use the help of a matchmaker to exchange drafts to see if the horoscopes of the man and woman are compatible. If both parties are auspicious, they will then communicate with each other and write down the family situations of both men and women. The parents of both families will

If you are satisfied, you can go on a blind date. A blind date is when the parents of both parties meet and they like each other. The man will make a betrothal gift, and the woman will return the gift. Then comes the betrothal gift. The matchmaker will set a date for the betrothal, and the man will send a betrothal gift. After that, the man will choose an auspicious day.

You are ready to welcome the bride.

These are ordinary people, and as for the prince's marriage, it is even more troublesome. But these are extraordinary times, Zhao Zhen doesn't want to make it big, and tries to make it as simple as possible.

The prince's concubinage couldn't be simpler. Anyway, after two or three days of fiddling with it, Zhao Zhen and the soldiers drank a lot of wine and were sent to Zhao Qing'er's bridal chamber in a daze.

.

King Xin married Zhao Qing'er, the commander of the barracks, which was just a small "interlude". Soon the rebels will face more challenges. Special Forces Time Travel: The Prince of the Song Dynasty 17

At this time, Zhao Zhen sent several secret envoys to report the funeral and a group of messengers pretending to be Jin Kingdom messengers to Yangzhou to deliver false news...

At this time, Gaozong Zhaogou, who was far away in Yangzhou, was shocked when he saw the "Handwritten Letter of King Xin" presented by Ma Kuo.

The Jin soldiers invaded the south, causing the disaster of Jingkang. All the princes and clans of the Zhao family, except Zhao Gou, were captured by the Jin soldiers and went north. He initially refused to believe whether King Xin was true or false. But after reading Zhao Zhen's letter, Zhao Zhen

Gou recognized the handwriting of the emperor's younger brother Xinwang, so he couldn't help but believe it.

At this time, Zhao Gou was extremely anxious. Zhao Zhen was the son of Zhao Ji, the younger brother of Zhao Huan, and his own brother. Since he was regarded as the leader of the Wuma Mountain Uprising Army, his influence among the military and civilians in the north must be considerable.

Because the majority of Tokyo's military and civilians have long been dissatisfied with him, if this person enters Tokyo and gains support from the military and civilians, they may compete with him for the throne.

Zhao Gou now regards the Zhao clan members who engage in anti-golden activities that threaten his status as emperor as his number one enemy, and the loyal militiamen who engage in anti-golden activities as his number two enemy.

Because he knew the strength of the Jin soldiers and was afraid, Zhao Gou never thought about resisting the Jin people. He devoted himself to fighting for peace with the Jin people, even if he became the emperor. When the Jin soldiers came, his first thought was to escape. As for resisting,

Jin's slogans were nothing more than what he shouted against his will in order to win the hearts and minds of the people. They only deceived the people and loyal ministers.

Zhao Zhen, who was fighting against the Jin Dynasty in the north, must have advocated the Northern Expedition, while Zhao Gou in his heart advocated fleeing south. With this comparison, the majority of soldiers and civilians would support Zhao Zhen instead of themselves. Looking at Zhao Zhen’s letter, Emperor Gaozong Zhao

Gou deeply felt that his younger brother was a potential threat to his throne, so he must eradicate King Xin.

Therefore, we must strike first and not be passive. Zhao Gou immediately issued an edict, appointing Zhao Zhen as "Marshal of the Military and Horse Capital of Hebei" and Ma Kuo as "General Manager of the Horse and Infantry Capital of the Marshal's Mansion". First, the identities of Zhao Zhen's ministers were determined.
