Reorganizing the Military System and Building a Navy (1)
In 189 AD, Emperor Taizong was defeated by Empress Zhuo in the capital and led King Shun Yun, King Gang Liao, and others back to their hometown, Lujiang. The emperor prepared his troops and horses in Lujiang and worked hard to make the country prosperous. He carried out many reforms and developments such as agriculture, commerce, and military. He eliminated the enemy and unified the world, laying a solid foundation. Later generations all said that Lujiang was the starting point of Emperor Wu's great cause for thousands of years, which was really not excessive.
----Records of the Historian: The Chronicle of Emperor Taizong Wu Jun
In terms of military affairs, Wu Jun changed the Han Dynasty's " 5 - 5 military system " to the " 3 - 3 military system " according to some advanced military ideas of later generations. He made some changes to the bad habits of the army. Wu Jun found that about 3,000 to 5,000 soldiers were most suitable for a general to command. In case of an emergency, he could mobilize such a large-scale army at any time according to the enemy's situation. It would not lead to a situation where the soldiers did not know the general and the command was not effective. Therefore, Wu Jun organized 1,000 men into a battalion as the smallest independent command unit. Three battalions and a logistics battalion formed a regiment, which had about 4,000 men. Three regiments and an equipment battalion formed a column, and each column had about 20,000 people. The three columns formed an army, and each army had about 50,000 to 60,000 people. The details were as follows:
First, the military structure:
Ten people are one tenth, and the commander is a sergeant and a sergeant. The sergeant was the deputy of the shih chang, and the two were collectively called sergeants. The shih chang and above in the county soldiers were the main soldiers, and they were paid. The sergeant was appointed by the shih chang.
Teams: 30 for a team, a full team of 30 people. The commander was the captain, and those above the captain were the officers.
Tun: three teams for a Tun, a Tun full of 100 people. The commander is the chief of the village, and the chief of the village has ten bodyguards.
Qu: Three villages are divided into a song, a song full of 350 people, the commander is the marquis, there are 50 soldiers.
Camp: Three turns into a camp, a camp full of about 1,000 people, the commander can be a lieutenant, Duwei. A lieutenant may have 80 bodyguards and 100 captains.
Regiment: Three battalions plus a logistics battalion would form a regiment. Each regiment would have about 4,000 people, and the commander would be a general. The general may have 150 guards. The deputy was Sima, who was in charge of combat training, law enforcement supervision, and logistics equipment. He had eighty personal guards.
A column, consisting of three regiments and an equipment battalion. Each column had about 20,000 people. The commander is General Zhonglang. A general can have 200 bodyguards. The deputy was in charge of combat training, law enforcement supervision, and logistics equipment. There were 100 personal guards.
Army: Three columns make up an army, which has about 50,000 to 60,000 people. The commander was a general. The general can have 300 bodyguards. The deputy was in charge of combat training, law enforcement supervision, and logistics equipment. There were 150 personal guards, 150 guards, and 150 guards.
Next was the military rank and insignia.
When the helmet was made, there would be three holes arranged in a regular triangle above the brim of the helmet, so that the military rank symbol could be nailed. When the nails represented the multi-pointed star of the military rank, if there was one, they would be nailed to the top hole. If there were two, they would be nailed to the two holes below.
Soldier: A helmet tassel made of horse hair on his head and a wooden waist tag. There was an iron three-pointed star on the brim of the helmet. There were no county soldiers or local soldiers.
Fighters and sergeants: The helmet tassel on the head was made of horse hair, but the top of the helmet brim was decorated with iron three-pointed stars. There were two sergeants and three sergeants. The captain wears a wooden waist tag. Shi Chang wears an iron waist tag.
Captain: A helmet made of bird feathers on the top of his head, one in total. There was a copper four-pointed star pinned on the brim of the helmet. He wears a silver-plated waist token with an iron animal head.
The head of the village: the helmet made of bird feathers on the head, two in total. There were two copper four-pointed stars pinned on the brim of the helmet. He wears a bronze waist tag.
Military marquis: helmet made of bird feathers on the head, three in total. There were three copper four-pointed stars pinned on the brim of the helmet. He wears a gold-plated waist token with a bronze animal head.
Sima, Hujun, Junjun: helmet feathers made of bird feathers on the head, a total of four. Two copper four-pointed stars and a silver five-pointed star were nailed on the brim of the helmet. They were placed at the top and wore a copper waist tag. Sima has another steel seal.
Captain: There are five helmet feathers made of bird feathers on the top of the head. There was a silver pentagram pinned on the brim of the helmet. Wearing a bronze seal.
Commandant: helmet made of bird feathers on the head, a total of six. There were two silver stars pinned on the brim of the helmet. Wearing a bronze seal.
Zhonglang General: Helmet feathers made of bird feathers on the top of his head, a total of seven. There were three silver stars pinned on the brim of the helmet. Wearing a silver seal.
General: There are eight helmet feathers made of bird feathers on his head. There were three silver five-pointed stars and one gold five-pointed star nailed to the brim of the helmet. Wearing a gold seal.
Wu Jun himself did not wear a helmet and feathers, only wearing a gold seal with the word "Jun" printed on it and the sword forged in Julu, Jizhou (he usually did not use it casually). Wu Jun's personal guards were all dressed in a light red uniform. The uniform color of Zhao Yun's personal guards was gray. Zhang Liao's personal guards had a uniform color of light yellow. The uniform color of Xu Huang's personal guards was light blue. The uniform color of Gao Shun's personal guards was light gray. Dian Wei's personal guards were all dressed in a light black uniform. Wu Jun was the highest commander of the army, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao were the deputy commanders, and the other generals were the commanders of their respective troops. The three commanders and deputy commanders of the army had the authority to command the commanders. The helmets of all the soldiers under Wu Jun's command were red. When all the soldiers saw Wu Jun's golden seal and sword, it meant that he had come personally.
The third was the command and management mechanism.
In Wu Jun's army, the battalion was the basic unit of combat training. The commander of the battalion usually had the authority to manage the training troops. During wartime, he would command the entire battalion according to the authorization of the military officer. Without the documents of the military commander and the tiger talismans, the battalion commanders could not mobilize the army except for their own personal guards. According to the needs of the battle, the general officer of each level could appoint the general officer of the next level to command the troops of the next level. He could not command the troops of the next level. After the mission was completed, his authority would be removed.
Among the sergeants, middle-ranking sergeants, captains, and station commanders of the same team, the most senior and most meritorious ones were the chief sergeants, rank sergeants, captains, and station commanders. The unit under his command was usually the vanguard, and he was promoted to the top. He also had greater command authority and assisted the higher-ups on a daily basis. In other words, among the three sergeants, one of them would be the second deputy sergeant. The first deputy sergeant would not be a part-time sergeant, but would support the sergeants. Among the three ten-year-old sergeants, one of them was the second vice-captain. The first vice-captain was not a part-time job, but an auxiliary captain. Among the three captains, one of them was the second deputy station commander. The first deputy station commander did not have a part-time job, but assisted the station commander. Among the three station commanders, one of the captains was the second deputy general. The first deputy general was not a part-time job, but was an auxiliary general.…And so on. Among the three Zhonglang Generals, one Zhonglang General would be the second deputy general. The first deputy general would not be a part-time general, but an auxiliary general. In the event of the death or absence of a superior officer, the deputy general had the right to command other units of the same level.
In the end, Wu Jun, Zi Long, Wen Yuan, Wen Ruo, Yuan Hao, Zi Chang, Zi Jian, Xian De, and the others decided to implement the military merit system. There were four types of military merits: one was the merit of returning to the righteous cause (that is, leading the masses to submit or persuading others to submit); The second is to build a strategy (that is, to plan and plan); 3. Commanding Skill (which was commanding the battle); Four for beheading. If you capture or kill an enemy, you will be rewarded with 10,000 yuan and ten mu of land. If you capture a general who kills the enemy, you will be rewarded with 100 mu of land, ten catties of gold, a mansion and ten servants. The children of those who died in battle were raised by the government, and the children who were rewarded with military titles continued to inherit them, and they were cut off after three generations.
Three months after the establishment of the Recruitment Hall, Wu Jun and Xun Yu did not find any talents from Lujiang City who came to seek refuge. Wu Jun could not help but feel disappointed. He probably did not do enough publicity work. Therefore, Wu Jun added in front of the entrance of the Recruitment Hall, No matter what field you were in, no matter what industry you used to be in, as long as you had a skill, you could be hired by the Recruitment Hall. Anyone who recommended talents to the Recruitment Hall would receive a reward of ten taels of gold regardless of whether the recommended person was hired or not. Once the recommended person was hired, there would be another forty taels of gold. Those who recommend more than five people to be hired can be exempted from taxes for half a year; Those who recommended more than ten people to be hired would be exempted from taxes for half a year and would also receive a reward of 100 taels of gold. Wu Jun ordered the soldiers in the county government and his personal guards to go to the nearby counties every day to publicize his idea of employing people. At the same time, he ordered people to inquire about Lu Su, Lu Zijing, Zhou Tai, and Zhou Youping. They had discovered the whereabouts of the two and immediately came back to report.
Ever since Wu Jun returned to Lujiang City, he had been trying to find these two people. However, after asking his father, Wu Shuo, he found out that Lu Su seemed to have been studying abroad for the past few years. Zhou Tai seemed to have encountered an unknown fire in his home a few years ago. Although Wu Shuo also sent some silver to Zhou Ji, he had not seen Zhou Tai since then. Only now did Wu Jun recall that Zhou Tai had been a pirate on the sea before he joined Sun Ce and Sun Quan. Thinking of pirates, Wu Jun immediately thought of another famous Eastern Wu general who was as famous as Zhou Tai, the 'Jinfan Thief' Gan Ning and Gan Xingba. Wu Jun immediately sent people to put up "Talent Search Notice" in front of the "Recruitment Hall" and all over Lujiang River to look for Lu Su, Zhou Tai, Gan Ning and others. As long as anyone provided clues about the whereabouts of these three people, they would be rewarded handsomely!
One afternoon after another month, it was already the middle of March 190 AD. Wu Jun was playing the zither, admiring the flowers, practicing martial arts, and practicing swordsmanship with Cai Yan, Xiu 'er, and Zhao Yu in the backyard of the Wu residence when he heard Wen Ruo's report,""Lord Wei Hou, just now, three heroes with dignified appearances came to the Recruitment Hall. Lord Xun is currently chatting with the three heroes in the hall.”
When Wu Jun rushed to the Recruitment Hall, he found Wen Ruo sitting around a table with three people, chatting and laughing. Wu Jun saw a man in a red shirt on Wen Ruo's left. This man was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, handsome, with a big bow hanging on his back. He also wore an exquisite big sword hanging behind him, and a soft whip made of good material wrapped around his waist. On Wen Ruo's right was a man in a yellow shirt. He was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. His face was well-defined and he looked very tough. Opposite Wen Ruo was a man in light yellow clothes, about 28 or 29 years old.
"My lord, you're here. First of all, I would like to congratulate my lord. Today, there are three heroes who have come to consort with me.”Xun Yu saw that Wu Jun had arrived. He quickly stood up and pointed at the three warriors." These three heroes are Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, and Ling Cao!" Three heroes, this is the Lord Marquis Wei you were looking for, Wu Jun and Wu Xianglong!”
Hearing Wen Ruo's introduction, Wu Junlian thought of Gan Ning in the history books. When he was young, he didn't do his job properly and often gathered a group of frivolous youths to be their leader. They formed groups, carrying bows and arrows, with bird feathers on their heads and bells on their bodies, swimming around. Gan Ning in the county, light chivalrous killing, hiding outlaws, very famous. The moment he entered and exited, he was awe-inspiring. On foot, chariots and horses were displayed, and on water, light boats were connected. The attendants were dressed in embroidered clothes. Wherever they went, they would shine brilliantly. When he stayed, he often used brocade to maintain the boat. When he left, he had to cut it off and abandon it to show his wealth and luxury. Everyone called him the "Jinfan Thief". If the local officials in Gan Ning's city or the people he interacted with received him in a grand manner, Gan Ning would go through fire and water for him. If the etiquette was not good enough, Gan Ning would allow his subordinates to plunder the other party's assets and even harm the officials. This situation lasted for more than ten years. Later, Gan Ning stopped attacking others because he had read some history books and studied the theories of the Hundred Schools of Thought. When Gan Ning had heard about the three brothers 'rescue at Beimang and the battle with Dong Zhuo in the capital, he had said, When he heard that Wu Jun, the Marquis of Wei, had set up a recruitment hall in Lujiang, he led more than 800 of his brothers to seek refuge with Wu Jun.
