Regarding the organizational change of the new army, the main purpose is to ensure that each unit has independent combat capabilities so that the role of hot weapons can be maximized.

Regarding the detailed plan, he personally wrote the guidance manual. Of course, he said that Gillian wrote it, and then made it, and sent it to each new army senior and middle- and low-level officer.

In the specific implementation, the New Army and the Army all ranged from Di to Prime Minister. Then, Wei Yubai, Liu Ji and Yan Shen were responsible for the reorganization of the army, while the New Army was completed from Shenlin and Di to complete.

After the division of functions, Li Xingzhou will not interfere with the specific operations and will only conduct temporary inspections.

In general, it is changed to the modern army's squad, platoon, company, battalion, regiment, brigade, division, and army, and the new army's 40,000 people can be organized into four divisions.

The biggest difference between a division and a brigade lies in its function. In the later army organization, the division was defined in war theory as the smallest combat unit, which means that a division must be able to undertake a small battle independently.

This is what Lee Sing-cheol wants!

Therefore, since we must have the ability to carry out the battle independently, all kinds of service troops must not be missing, including fire support and logistics service. Therefore, there will be a large number of service troops under the traditional division level organization.

This is the ultimate purpose of the new army's adaptation this time. As for the number of people and the name of the organization, it is actually not important. It can be called any of the new army, which is constantly updated and upgraded weapons and equipment, into combat units, so that it will not affect the combat effectiveness of the new army.

Otherwise, if the weapons and equipment are ready, the tactics and tactics and personnel are lagging behind, it is like using a supercar to pull a ox cart. This problem must be solved early.

......

There is also Wei Xingping. After the beginning of the year, he also wanted to go north. He and his 500 accompanying soldiers were proficient in the use of the front-mounted cannons. This time, he had to bring 5,000 Suiqi guns and add 102 cannons to go north. The number of artillery increased because the new army needed to be equipped with new cannons, and many of the eliminated ones were taken away by Wei Xingping.

At the royal ferry crossing, Li Xingzhou went to see him off. Wei Yubai was busy with the adjustment of the new army's organization, so he didn't come.

After the New Year, the sky began to clear up gradually, and the ferry was breeze blew.

He sent a large ship to transport these arms and a battalion of new soldiers, otherwise the manpower would not be enough, and the weight of more than one hundred artillery was not a joke.

Moreover, this new army in the battalion will also teach the Guanbei Army how to use these firearms together with Wei Xingping in the north.

People coming and going at the ferry, busy carrying firearms on board the boats and putting them in wooden boxes. The cotton is very luxurious. Most of them are provided by black leopards in the Taihang Mountains. Now the production scale is getting bigger and bigger every year.

"Don't worry, I will have delicious food and drinks for these brothers." At the side of the case, Wei Xingping promised that he would be very happy to leave Beijing this time, because Guanbei Army would soon use firearms.

Li Xingzhou smiled and said, "Don't treat special treatment, otherwise it will cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers in the army. After these firearms are published, they will tell your father that they will not be reluctant to use them, so they will give it to you for nothing."

Now the north is in a storm, and the situation changes day by day, which is very complicated. Tell Lord Wei that Guanbei will be handed over to him and be careful of the Jin people. If the Jin people attack, they will focus on defense and can fight back, but don’t cross Shanhaiguan to avoid affecting the overall situation in the future.”

"I know, I will sue my father the truth." Wei Xingping bowed and then added: "Prince, please take good care of my sister."

"Don't worry, you must be very energetic. According to the situation that Lord Sun He will report, the new emperor of the Jin Kingdom was an arrogant and arrogant young man. Now that the Jin army defeated the Tatars on the grassland, his troops were in full swing. He might take the opportunity to invade the Yanshan Prefecture area." Li Xingzhou said seriously.

"But I'm afraid he won't come. He is proud and complacent at this time, and is blinded by victory. The troops fought from Liaodong have been fighting on and off for more than ten years. The young people have become old men. At this time, they have only fought the Tatars and have to let them go south again. Many people must be dissatisfied and their morale is sluggish, so don't worry, just deal with it calmly." Li Xingzhou ordered.

Wei Xingping nodded: "Don't worry, our Guanbei Army, you must come here if you dare to come, and you will never let him have good results."

Li Xingzhou laughed. Wei Xingping's temper was less wise than his sister. Fortunately, Wei Chaoren was still there, so Wei Chaoren became much more stable.

"Remember, even if you win, don't chase Shanhaiguan." He instructed again.

Wei Xingping bowed and took his men onto the big ship.

After all the arms were brought on the boat, the big ship started Yang Fan and then slowly sailed to the distance. This time they headed north, they would take the route from Di to attack Yanshan Prefecture, go north from the Bohai Sea, and walk to Haihe until Yanshan Prefecture.

This route can save dozens of days, and there is no need for manpower or animal transportation on the road, which is the advantage of sea transportation.

Looking at the big ship that was moving away, he actually had many worries in his heart. However, analysis often affects things too many factors and will not follow people's subjective wishes.

But he was right. At this time, the north was in a turmoil and dangerous situation. Now is not the era of nuclear deterrence in later generations, and war is the norm.

However, what Li Xingzhou unexpectedly was that on the night of the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he was attending a poetry meeting at Yongyue Pavilion. He told stories to the children in the palace with Jiao. When he was telling the truth, Yan Gu told him that someone outside insisted on looking for him, and even said that he was from Xia.

It was lively inside, and the adults were joking. Di Zhi and Chanlin talked about which lady Yan Shen liked. Li Xingzhou was thinking that Yan Shen should indeed get married. He seemed to be looking down on the royal beauties of the Liao Dynasty who were given to him, and he only acted as a concubine...

At this time, he was interrupted by Yan Gu's words.

Li Xingzhou stood up, and the children were still listening to A Jiao telling stories. Shiyu and Yue'er were calling people to deliver drinks, fruits and vegetables to everyone. He stood up and quietly followed Yan Gu to the lively Yongyue Pavilion.

After passing through the corridor, there are dim lights outside. During the Chinese New Year Festival, there is a prosperous street scene. Kaiyuan City is more lively and prosperous than a few years ago.

After drinking a few drinks, the lights in front of him were blurred, and he actually felt like he was a different life.

He has entered this world for the fifth year. The world seems to have begun to change in his hands. The feeling is indescribable...

.........

Apart from fruit and melons, fruits, cloth, etc., because the royal ships have greatly increased the circulation of goods and stimulated trade. In addition, the terrifying load capacity has reduced transportation costs, more and more wood merchants in the south have found opportunities.

The south is rich in resources, dense trees, and there are many high-quality timbers, but mountainous, and the cost of land transportation is very high. As an example, because the timber for building the imperial palace had to be transported from the south, it could only recruit hundreds of thousands of people, and move them little by little by little by little by little by land, which cost a lot of people and killed many people, which led to public grievances.

Nowadays, there are large ships from the royal palace, which do not need to recruit hundreds of thousands of people or send people to die. As long as you have money, a lot of good wood can be transported from the south.

This has led to more and more people in the south engaged in wood trading, and a large number of timber merchants emerged. Under the competition, the price of wood has been declining year by year, and nowadays, most of the houses are made of wooden structures.

In recent years, with the price of wood reduced, many ordinary people with some money could afford to build new houses, and they began to renovate, attracting a large number of workers and creating jobs, while opening up sales for the cement in the royal palace.

Most of the people from high-gate to ordinary people do not like cement walls, but they all like wooden houses, but using cement to lay foundations and build walls is the best choice and is very popular.

This also led some people to imitate cement. Although the imitation was not successful, the things burned with limestone also had a certain degree of adhesion. As long as they sold cheaper than Wangfu cement, they could also seize some market share.

This is the market. If there is a high-end market, there will be a low-end market. Li Xingzhou did not stop him. He only sent someone to inspect the quality of his imitation cement in the name of Maritime and was allowed to operate as long as he passed the qualification.

This practice once again made the royal palace popular with the people. I thought that when the inspection was first inspected, there were indeed one or two workshops that imitated the cement quality was too poor, which might kill the people who built the houses, so Li Xingzhou ordered the sealing.

People thought he wanted to dominate the market, so they used their power to seek personal gain and drove all those who robbed the cement business from the royal palace.

As a result, most workshops passed the inspection by the Maritime Bureau. Only 20 to 30% of the workshops with poor quality were sealed. He also posted a notice with the official documents of the Maritime Bureau, and wanted to do business by imitating the things from the royal palace. He could do anything as long as he passed the inspection by the Maritime Bureau.

This made many people feel relieved. The products of the Wangfu were too profitable. Many people had long wanted to get involved and seize some markets, but were afraid that the Wangfu would take revenge. As a result, the announcement of the Maritime Mansion Company opened a formal road for them.

Of course, Li Xingzhou understood that he could not monopolize the market. With such a large market, only a hundred schools of thought will have vitality. If he monopolizes the market with power, the market will lose its competitiveness and become distorted.

The market needs to be governed, but regulators do not directly interfere in the market and force rough intervention, but use rules, laws, and indirect supervision.

He directly issued an announcement in the name of the Maritime Mansion. In fact, it was a surplus, or part of it. This should have been from Kaiyuan Mansion. However, He Zhao had a good relationship. He was his father-in-law. He would marry He Qian after the spring of this year. So although He Zhao came to the royal mansion with a bad face and complained to him, it was not difficult for him. He just told him to issue such a document next time, discuss with him first, and stamp the seals of the Maritime Mansion and Kaiyuan Mansion. Otherwise, what would he be the prefect of Kaiyuan?

Li Xingzhou agreed repeatedly and sent He Zhao away. I'm sorry, I'll do this next time...

Because he wanted to gradually establish the presence of the Maritime Bureau and continue to increase its status. Taking advantage of the general trend in a few years, he would join the six ministries of officials, scholars, farmers, and workers, and a Ministry of Commerce.

......

Amid the bright Lantern Festival lights, Li Xingzhou climbed to the third floor of Zhiqiu Tower. From here, the night view of Shangyuan prosperity is in sight. A middle-aged man is driving in the distance by the corridor, and the bustling scene of the bustling street market seemed to be fascinated by the colorful and colorful night view, and they didn't even hear them going upstairs.

It was not until Yan Gu coughed that he hurriedly turned around, stood up and bowed: "What is this?"

"Our prince!" Yan Gu agreed seriously.

The other party quickly apologized again: "The King of Jin is forgiven for his crimes. I am the envoy sent by the State of Xia. I just lost my god when I saw the grand event and prosperity of the great country."

Li Xingzhou said indifferently: "It's okay, why are you here to meet me? Are you sent by King Xia Li Ji?"

As he said that, he sat down, but the other party was still standing, looking a little nervous.

"Sit down and talk," he said.

The other party still didn't sit down and said nervously: "Your Highness, King Jin, I am... I am not the one of King Xia, but the one of Prime Minister Zhang Jie."

Li Xingzhou was surprised. Zhang Jie, wasn’t that the rebel leader fighting with King Xia Li Ji?
