Chapter 484 Cao Liang's Five Tiger Generals
After discussing the aftermath of the recruitment matter, Cao Liang quickly entered into the process of appointing the captain of the fifth battalion.
Everyone was shocked. Everyone wanted to know who the fifth captain was. In other words, everyone had a chance before Cao Liang announced it.
Cao Liang glanced at the generals and said unhurriedly: "Deng Ai."
"The general is here!" Deng Ai was the first to come out, with excitement on his face. It was rare that he didn't stutter this time, and his voice was crisp and loud.
"You are appointed as the Yueqi Colonel and command the Yueqi battalion."
"General... I obey!" Deng Ai bowed to accept the order. Although he should have guessed Deng Ai's position as a school captain in advance, the Yueqi Battalion was a direct line unit led by Cao Liang, among the five schools.
He has a special status. If he is not a close confidant of Cao Liang, he may not be able to achieve this position.
Deng Ai was the first captain to take orders, and obviously Cao Liang regarded him as his most important confidant.
"Shi Bao." Cao Liang continued to read.
Shi Bao stepped out of the queue and said in a rough voice, cupping his hands: "The general will be here!"
"You are appointed as the Tunqi Colonel and command the Tunqi Camp."
"General, I will obey the order." Shi Bao accepted the order generously.
The Tunqi Battalion is another cavalry battalion among the five schools of the Northern Army besides the Yueqi Battalion. Deng Ai and Shi Bao initially served as commanders of other departments in the Xiaoqi Battalion, and were transferred to the Yueqi Battalion as army commanders.
In other words, in the past few years, Deng Ai and Shi Bao had been commanding the cavalry. Therefore, after Cao Liang appointed Deng Ai as the Yue Cavalry Colonel, it was more appropriate to hand over the command of another cavalry battalion to Shi Bao.
"Yang Hu." Cao Liang continued.
"The general is here." There was uncontrollable excitement on Yang Hu's face. Since leaving Chang'an, Yang Hu couldn't help but ask Cao Liang privately what he arranged for him to do. Cao Liang just smiled and said nothing. Yang Hu knew this.
Fan Caoliang will definitely reuse himself, but not knowing where he will be used still makes him itchy.
"You are appointed as an infantry captain and command the infantry battalion."
"I will obey the order." Yang Hu accepted the order with his hands raised.
The name of the infantry battalion implies that it is an infantry unit. According to Cao Liang's idea, the infantry battalion will be turned into heavy infantry and become the main force that can charge forward with persistence to destroy cities and fortresses.
Although cavalry is the most powerful force on the battlefield, cavalry still has its limitations. For example, complex terrain conditions are not conducive to cavalry operations. During siege operations, cavalry can only sit on the sidelines, so cavalry is certainly important.
, infantry is also indispensable.
"Du Yu." Cao Liang continued to read.
Du Yu came out of the queue and raised his hands: "The end will be here!"
"You are appointed as Colonel Shesheng and command the Shesheng Battalion."
"General, I will obey your order!" Du Yu calmly accepted the order.
The Shesheng Battalion is an archer unit. In Cao Liang's plan, the Shesheng Battalion in the future will not only be limited to archers, but will also be equipped with continuous crossbows, catapults, bed crossbows, siege vehicles and various large mechanical weapons.
Among the Shesheng Battalion, it can be said that the Shesheng Battalion in the future will be the most powerful force in attack.
The four captains soon each had their own masters, which was completely in line with people's expectations in advance. It's just that the specific job arrangements may be slightly different from what people thought, but it doesn't matter. After all, no matter which position, they are all
The fifth-grade official position is as high as two thousand stones. If you can rise to this position, you will become a general if you further advance in the future.
The next person to appear is the fifth captain, also known as the captain of Changshui. Everyone is eagerly looking forward to who this position will go to.
Changshui Camp was formed by the merger of Changshui Camp and Hu Qiying during the Western Han Dynasty. It used Hu people who had surrendered and was an elite cavalry unit. However, in the Wei Dynasty, after the overall decline of the five schools of the Northern Army, Changshui Camp was
The cavalry organization was abolished and became an infantry unit.
However, compared with the infantry battalion Shesheng Battalion, the positioning of Changshui Battalion is not accurate and can only be regarded as a miscellaneous unit.
This Changshui Battalion is naturally the team that Cao Liang needs to focus on. In Cao Liang's plan, Changshui Battalion will become a light infantry unit, mainly composed of sword and shield soldiers, to form a highly mobile infantry unit.
As for the choice of Captain Changshui, Cao Liang had already made up his mind. He paused briefly, looked at his right head, and said calmly: "King."
All of Cao Liang's subordinates were slightly startled. They had never heard of such a person in the Yueqi camp.
When the officials of Hedong County arrived, some people were surprised. Isn’t the king the king of Hedong? I thought I was here to discuss the matter today and was just attending the meeting. Unexpectedly, Cao Liang actually named the king. Could it be that there was someone with the same name in the Northern Army?
People with the same surname?
When Cao Liang was named, Wang was staring at the roof of the tent in a daze. Someone next to him gently poked him. Wang then woke up, glared at the person, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Why did you poke me?"
"
The man said in a low voice: "General Cao called your name."
Wang was stunned and muttered: "No way, he is not from the Northern Army."
He raised his head and looked at Cao Liang. Cao Liang was staring at him at the moment, with a gentle smile and said: "The king obeys the order."
The king could only take a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "This is my humble duty."
"You are appointed as the captain of Changshui and command the Changshui camp."
Wang was completely stunned. He was only an eighth-grade officer with a salary of 400 dan. To suddenly be asked to serve as a captain of Changshui with a salary of 2,000 dan was a big step.
Everyone also had a look of astonishment on their faces. The previous four captains were not only Cao Liang's confidants, but also people in the army. However, Wang did not know Cao Liang before, and he was also a low-level official in Hedong County. What's more?
He also has no military experience, so how could Cao Liang suddenly take a fancy to him?
"General Cao, are you kidding me?" Wang calmly said.
Cao Liang said calmly: "If there is no joke in the army, how can I, the general, be a child's play? The reason why I promoted you to the rank of captain of Changshui is precisely because I am optimistic about your talents, and it depends on whether you dare to obey the order."
If the king does not have the ambition to fly, then he is not the king. When Cao Liang provoked the general, the king's blood suddenly surged, and he said generously: "Since General Cao values a humble position, he must go through fire and water for a humble position, and he will not hesitate to do so!"
Cao Liang chuckled and said, "Shizhi really did not disappoint me."
The dust of the five major captains has settled, and the result is both expected and unexpected. Wang's unexpected selection made everyone shocked and sighed. They all said that Wang was lucky and would be favored by Cao Liang.
