Chapter 69 New Blueprint

In any era, moving to a new home will inevitably lead to chaos, especially when thousands of people are involved.

Li Ping didn't like chaos. He just wanted to take the assessment and combat merit list that Duan Qiang quickly sent and continue to think about it quietly, but this was obviously impossible. There were always too many trivial matters for him to deal with, and even many needs. Go to the scene to deal with it, and he can't shirk it, so who makes him the boss?

This is the trouble at the head.

As long as you still want to control the army and want the army to operate according to your will, you can't ignore common things, let alone act as a hands-off shopkeeper.

Even if you want to be a hands-off shopkeeper, you must have a strong organization and a group of qualified department heads, and these department heads must be able to fully understand your ideas and thoughts.

But these are currently impossible.

Not to mention that Li Ping does not yet have an important auxiliary organization such as the government. Duan Qiang and Hu Zhongshan, who are assisting in command and deployment in the villa, are not even a question of whether they can keep up with Li Ping in terms of experience and thinking. It is a matter of countless differences. Order of magnitude.

What made Li Ping even more depressed was that Duan Qiang not only came as ordered, but also brought two hot potatoes.

Zhao Lanyue and Gao Lei.

Then, after the two women came over, they only said a cursory hello to Li Ping and then excitedly went to choose their accommodation. The entire camp distribution plan had to be readjusted again.

Li Ping did not discuss this relocation with them, nor did he send anyone to inquire.

According to the plan, his original place will be handed over to Zhao Jin. This is the result of the two people's discussion that night, and it is also a more realistic sidestep.

Zhao Jin didn't have enough space in the city, so he added new troops. Everything was reasonable and reasonable. Then, he could also take over the care of Miss Zhao who was supposed to be in charge of him but "disliked" the crowds in the city. It also made Li Ping unable to move all the support camps. It also has the best buffering.

Zhao Lanyue's unique identity has always been a hidden danger for Li Ping. She should not stay in Li Ping's camp. Her distant relative Zhao Jin, who was entrusted by President Du Qian, should be her temporary shelter.

After Li Ping moves out, Zhao Lanyue staying in the same place will solve all the problems and is the best choice.

But Li Ping obviously ignored women's thinking.

Zhao Lanyue either didn't think about it at all, or she chose to pretend to be stupid. Anyway, she and Gao Lei came happily together, and they seemed to want to continue to do it.

They didn't even mention why Li Ping didn't invite them, nor did they mention their surprise that no one informed them about the relocation despite being discussed around them. The two of them seemed to be part of the security camp, so natural and taken for granted.

After finding a quiet little courtyard, the two of them were completely crazy about their beauty. No matter whose it was, they immediately announced the takeover, and then devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the fun of building their own comfort zone.

After some deliberation, Li Ping, who was chasing after him, finally had to express his concerns. This is an era that pursues human ethics, and it is also an era where human words are feared.

But Li Ping was firmly rejected, and there was no room for negotiation.

Zhao Lanyue was very dissatisfied on the grounds that the beautiful scenery and living conditions here were more suitable for her identity, and that there were many women in the security camp to make her life more convenient, and that Li Ping was also one of Mr. Du Qian's entrustees. Li Ping sent him away.

Although her reasons were still far-fetched, they seemed very strong and she was obviously well prepared. Gao Lei was even more murderous, as if Li Ping was doing something to harm them.

Li Ping had no choice but to accept his fate.

And it's not just Li Ping who is depressed. Song Baolai, who didn't come here today, will also be depressed because the small courtyard occupied by Zhao Lanyue and Gao Lei is the place Song Baolai chose for himself. Song Baolai will have no choice but to find a new location.

Another day later, Song Baolai, escorted by two sentinels, Ma Yongquan and Hu Zhongshan, finally came back with the support camp and a large amount of supplies. He received all the rewards promised by Zuo Mengeng, and also packed up the last supplies of the support camp.

Large quantities of materials need to be relocated.

The mules and horses that Hu Zhongshan escorted back on the first day and the newly acquired mules and horses made the move much easier than expected.

Ma Yong also completed the work of allocating food to the three groups of troops who were about to join the army, and handed over the troops to the garrison of General Zhao Jin.

That night, Li Ping, Song Baolai, Duan Qiang, Hu Zhongshan and Ma Yong could finally get together again.

In order to allow everyone to take advantage of the last moment of the day to deal with a large number of complex and chaotic affairs, Li Ping did not call everyone together until after dark.

And this time they sat indoors, in the large lobby of Li Ping's main courtyard. The benefits brought by the improved conditions were very obvious and made people more comfortable.

By the bright candlelight, several people reported the progress of the past two days to Li Ping. The troops were doing well, there were basically no major problems, and everything was generally going smoothly, but there were a lot of problems at the support camp.

.

It is certain that some people will not move for the time being. After all, the crops they have planted cannot be harvested before they are mature, and production with some relatively complex processes cannot be stopped at will. Moreover, the number of miscellaneous things surprised everyone.

Not to mention that it can’t all be emptied out in a few days.

Song Baolai accumulated a mind-numbing pile of rags in a few months.

The most unexpected thing was that there were some people who firmly did not want to leave, and there were dozens of them. They were basically residents of the original city or suburbs of Xiangyang.

With their unique cunning and life experience, they probably concluded that Li Ping might not return to the vicinity of Xiangyang City. However, leaving the city's periphery was something they had never thought about, and they did not want to follow Li Ping around.

And leave this thousand-year-old majestic city, leaving their home for generations.

Li Ping was also speechless about this unexpected situation.

These people really healed their scars and forgot about the pain. They had just been stable for a few days before they had other thoughts.

They didn't even think about it. Without Li Ping's wings, Xiangyang City would be nothing more than hell for them. At this time, they were still homesick and had thoughts of blackmailing him. They were thinking too much.

Maybe it was during this period that Li Ping was so kind to them that he made them forget the dangers of the world.

If high-pressure measures are not taken, Li Ping is very worried that a domino effect will occur. After all, more people may be waiting and watching, but Li Ping cannot withstand a large number of population losses.

For this reason, Li Ping strictly ordered coercive measures to be taken against these people who did not want to leave, and asked Song Baolai to prepare for such things in the future and not to be merciful.

Especially for the important core production departments, we must strictly control the selection and employment of people in the future. It must be clear that you have no right to choose after joining, and you must always follow the direction of the whole camp.

After talking about these chores, Li Ping quickly unveiled his brand new organization plan, which he had been brewing for several days.

In this adjustment, sentries will be renamed companies, teams will be renamed platoons, troops will be renamed squads, and corps will be cancelled.

The name was changed to more vividly indicate the basic combat setup for the coming period, that is, a group of "platoons" with "connections" and the most basic level sequence of "squad" ("ban" has always had the meaning of sequence level since ancient times).

).

Of course these are public statements.

Part of the reason for changing the name is to use the habit of Li Ping, who has been branded for more than 20 years, because he always feels that the team whistle is hard to pronounce, but the deeper considerations are not the time to throw them away from everyone. The more people who know,

Less is better.

Simply put, he wants to solve the core problem of controlling the troops. This is his own strength and he must hold on tightly, and the old system cannot meet his requirements.

Gradually understanding that Zuo Liangyu basically adopted a laissez-faire management style for his subordinate ministries allowed Li Ping to discover opportunities, and the army, which was basically composed of various rogue bandits, had become the largest group of Xiangyang officers and soldiers, which gave Li Ping ample opportunities.

courage.

He felt that it might not be a big deal if he did some tricks, and it wouldn't necessarily be considered unusual, not to mention that he was now far away from everyone in such a secluded place.

This remote mountain villa finally prompted Li Ping to make up his mind.

During this adjustment, Li Ping planned to establish a battalion headquarters, which was highly similar to the command organization of the Eastern Army in later generations.

In line with the principle that what has been tested in practice is the best, Li Ping adheres to the simplest adoption principle, and will not go to great lengths to introduce a new untested system out of thin air, just to get closer to this era, or

It is to make people who love the past feel psychologically comfortable.

If it weren't for some special reasons, he wouldn't even bother to change his name, just because those familiar names make any other names look very different.

The battalion headquarters will govern three departments: the Staff Office, the Teaching Office and the Logistics Office. The department heads are Chief of Staff Ma Yong, Director Duan Qiang and Director Hu Zhongshan. Each department has 3 to 6 staff officers, officers or assistants and some service personnel.

Soldier.

Simply speaking, the functions are as follows: the Staff Office is responsible for training and the command and coordination of all military operations; the Teaching Office is responsible for the appointment and dismissal of officers, cultural education and loyalty protection; the Logistics Office is responsible for the logistics support and military supply construction of the army.

Li Ping has drafted a complete set of instructions for the specific and detailed functions of each department and passed them on to everyone. They will be continuously revised and customized later. Of course, they will be somewhat different from those of later generations.

Li Ping's explanation for such a new type of command organization is: "His inspiration comes from the "shogunate" organization that has always existed from the Qin and Han Dynasties to the Tang Dynasty, which is different from the current staff group who are all literati. Because he feels that the Qin and Han Dynasties

The troops will be more able to fight, which is also to pay tribute to the glorious ancestors, and of course, it can also better assist him in directing military operations."

For members of each department, the heads of each department will put forward their needs, for soldiers to be unified, Ma Yong will give preliminary opinions, for officers to be unified, Duan Qiang will give preliminary opinions, and Li Ping plans to continue to use this principle of officer and soldier management in this time and space.

After the adjustment, the entire battalion will be under the jurisdiction of six combat companies (if there are not enough soldiers, set up the shelves first), and will be assigned a directly affiliated reconnaissance company, health team, service team, transportation company and other units.

The organization of each company will vary greatly depending on the equipment. He currently plans to organize an all-gun company (with 3 platoons) and two mixed companies (with 2 spear platoons and 1 saber platoon).

Hand platoon, 1 bow or musket platoon), three spearmen companies (3 spearmen platoons and 1 sword hand platoon).

The company headquarters of each company usually consists of a company commander, deputy company commander, 3 communication soldiers, 3 health soldiers, 1 clerical officer and a 5-person cooking squad, but this is not fixed and can be adjusted at any time according to training and combat needs.

.

Each platoon is usually composed of one commander, two signal corpsmen and three 10-man squads, but the cannon platoon has five squads to facilitate five-stage attacks during battle.

There are ten people in each squad. When divided into battle groups, the squad leader and deputy squad leader usually lead 4 people each, which is equivalent to the original two corps.

The reconnaissance company has an independent establishment. They belong to a small company. The personnel will be selected from the entire battalion. There is no fixed weapons establishment, let alone a fixed personnel establishment.

In this adjustment, the company began to set up deputy company commanders, mainly to consider smoother command succession, sharing of daily chores and advance reserve training, etc. It was also an adjustment because there was no deputy position in the early sentry, which resulted in greater pressure on the three sentry commanders.

There is usually no deputy platoon leader at the platoon level, and this will be done when necessary.

It was not a common thing in the armies of various countries before modern times to set up deputies in the middle and low-level organizational structures of the army. Even in modern armies, there are many deputies who do not have deputies. This is due to the low level of education in the army and the lack of understanding of the succession of military commands.

Insufficiency related.

Those above the platoon leader will be collectively referred to as officers, and those below the squad leader will be collectively referred to as soldiers.

In this way, the six companies are planned to have nearly 900 personnel, and the entire battalion (excluding the support battalion) is expected to have more than 1,100 personnel.

The gun company and the two mixed companies will serve as the backbone companies of the entire battalion. They will be reorganized from the existing three sentries into the first, second and third companies, and will receive some new recruits. However, all personnel above the deputy squad leader must be recruited from the original

Spawned from three whistles.

The three spear companies belong to the newly formed companies, namely the fourth, fifth and sixth companies. Some personnel will be transferred from each post to fill and control them, and all three groups will be disrupted to build the company. Just like
