Li Sheng had his own ideas about the military system of the territory.

First of all, the platoon and camp system of the later generations was absolutely impossible.

The military system of the later generations was specially customized for the use of firearms.

What era was this?

That was the era of alternating between hot and cold weapons!

Moreover, whether it was the Great Ming or the Manchu Tartars, they were all fighting with cold weapons.

In terms of the application of firearms, the current Ming Dynasty was far inferior to the Ming Chengzu and Zhu Di era.

Not to mention the Qi Family's Army, which had the best combination of hot and cold weapons.

On the battlefield, most of the battles were simple and crude, with cannons firing, infantry charging, and cavalry chasing.

Moreover, most of the events were initiated by the Manchu side.

Because, for various reasons, the Ming army did not dare to go out of the city to fight the Qing Eight Banners Army outside the city.

The biggest enemy was this kind of tactic and weapon configuration.

Li Sheng naturally wanted to go in the direction of the military system that restrained the Qing Dynasty's Eight Banners Army.

But now, there were no firearms in the territory.

Thus, they still used cold weapons to fight.

However, after the town center was upgraded in the future, firearms would definitely appear.

However, even if firearms appeared, it would not leap to the level of automatic rifles and machine guns.

Therefore, the mainstream mode of combat in the future was almost 100% certain to be the combination of hot and cold weapons.

And who was the best at pairing hot and cold weapons?

It was Da Ming!

The three battalions of the Ming Chengzu and Zhu Di's era hundreds of years ago.

The Qi Family's Army that had shocked the world decades ago.

Among them, the Qi Family's Army was the pinnacle of the era of alternating between hot and cold weapons.

The Qi Family's Army's theory of mixing and combining the different types of troops had a deep influence on the military construction of the later generations.

Among them, the emergence of the various combined troops in the later generations had taken reference from the Qi Family's Army's ideology.

According to the current and future war goals and models, Li Sheng also referred to the advantages of Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, the Qi Army, and the later generations.

After taking into account the advantages of his own territory.

In the end, they decided to use the military system of five, small flags, general flags, hundred households, thousand households, and guards.

Five people formed a team, with two shield soldiers, two spear soldiers, and one crossbow soldier. Later on, when he unlocked firearms and muskets or flintlocks appeared, he would replace the archers with musketeers.

The two groups were a small flag, with two people as the leader and deputy, as well as a cook, a total of thirteen people.

The four small flags formed a main flag, with two main and deputy flags, two cooks, and five light cavalrymen in charge of reconnaissance, a total of 61 people.

The two flags were made up of 100 households, equipped with two main and deputy 100 households, five cooks, 13 light cavalry and five baggage, a total of 147 people.

The five hundred households were divided into one thousand households, with two thousand households, five military staff officers, the general flag of the guards, the general flag of the light cavalry, the small flag of the cooks, the general flag of the baggage, and the general flag of the ballista. There were a total of 999 people.

Among them, the ballista flag would be replaced with cannons and other firearms.

As for the general flag of the supply army, it was a unit of one carriage. Each carriage had a supply soldier, and the cook followed the supply soldier.

The three thousand households made up one guard, with two commanders and deputy commanders, twenty military advisors, a hundred guard stations, a hundred light cavalry stations, a general flag station, a hundred baggage stations, and a hundred ballista stations, a total of 3,668 people.

Such a guard had the ability to fight independently.

Above Wei, it would depend on the situation.

Once a large-scale battle was launched, they would need to mobilize a few guards to fight.

And this was only the combat personnel.

The logistics, cavalry, and artillery battalions that would be allocated later would depend on the situation.

This unit was a temporary establishment. It was used for large-scale battles to temporarily transfer personnel from various military units to form a temporary military unit.

The number of people ranged from hundreds to thousands, depending on the specific situation.

The military construction was roughly completed. This way, Li Sheng could clearly know how many troops he needed according to his strategic goals.

Obviously, to seize the South Pass and the entire Lushun Peninsula, a thousand households would be needed.

If they wanted to stop the Manchurian Tartars from retaliating, they would need at least one guard.

Considering the resources and production of his territory, it was obvious that Wei could not afford it.

Thus, Li Sheng decided to expand his army to a thousand households first. After the reorganization was completed, he would immediately send out his army to seize the South Pass and sweep through the Lushun Peninsula.

After occupying the entire Lushun Peninsula, he would use the resources of the Lushun Peninsula to develop and expand production. He would gather the resources and expand the army.

Of course, having the military strength of the Thousand Households Bureau did not mean that Li Sheng only had this many people.

In this battle, he still needed a large amount of logistics and supplies, as well as farmers to build a defensive line.

And these farmers might increase to thousands in the future.

These thousands of farmers could be fully armed. At that time, if the frontline troops were insufficient, they could also be pulled into the battlefield to contribute.

Li Sheng calculated and couldn't help but click his tongue.

This did not include the production personnel in the rear. It was just a thousand households, a battle of about a thousand people.

He actually had to mobilize at least four to five thousand people!

One could imagine how expensive war was.

However, he still had an absolute advantage. The farmers he mobilized did not need to be transferred from various industries. He could consume food and directly recruit them.

But the Manchu Tartars couldn't. If they wanted to transfer manpower, they would have to transfer manpower from all over the country.

If the manpower was transferred away, the current work would definitely stop.

If the time dragged on, it would definitely affect the normal production and operation of materials.

Not to mention, a large number of people ate and chewed, and the resources consumed were also huge.

As for his side?

Other than the high consumption of various materials, it would definitely not affect his normal production and business activities.

As long as they could keep the Qing Tartars outside the defense line!

Time was beneficial to him!

Logistics was the key to war!

At this moment, Li Sheng was deeply aware that after he had the system, he had an unparalleled advantage in logistics.

This wasn't just about production.

Most importantly, his manpower could be transferred flexibly without affecting the territory.

This was the most terrifying part!

They transferred farmers and needed to stop all production activities.

As for him?

He could just directly recruit them from the system!

The advantage was too great and too obvious!

Thinking of this, Li Sheng did not hesitate to immediately recruit various troops and officially expand the army.

To expand the territory's regular army into a thousand households!

At the same time, he also established a Hundred Household Guard Office to protect his own safety.

Even though he was in his lair, he did not dare to let his guard down.

He definitely had to protect himself well!
