Chapter 261 Reshuffle
It’s raining to beat the child, and it’s idle too.
After the Liaodong troops captured the entire territory of Goguryeo, the soldiers of the seven armies were really idle. Chen Kefu mobilized Qimin separately. He personally led the central army to seize Liaodong City, Lu Shishen Zuoxiang Army guarded Xincheng, and Liu Tiezhu led the left rear army to replace Yu Qinming and Zhang Yong, leading the army to Pyongyang City. Yu Qinming and Zhang Yong's teaching battalion and reconnaissance battalion were transferred back to Liaodong City.
Zhang He led the right rear army to garrison Beisha City on the tip of the Liaodong Peninsula, Mao Yi's left front army stationed in the domestic city, and Chen Gui's right front army stationed in Fuyu City. Hu Hai's right front army returned to Anshi City, which was two days away from the garrison Liaodong City.
Basically, the troops were divided into three lines, the westernmost Liaohe line, Liaodong, Xincheng, Anshi, Fuyu and Beisha, arranged five armies. The Yalushui line in the center of Goguryeo, Mao Yi's troops guarded the two upstream and downstream cities, the domestic city and Wugu, and finally arranged one of Liu Tiezhu's troops in Pyongyang City near Beishui, the southernmost.
The focus of the entire arrangement is to defend against the western Central Plains of Liaoxi in the west. Among them, Beisha defends Shandong, Liaodong defends Liaoxi, Fuyu city defends Wei, domestic city defends Martin, and Pyongyang city defends Silla. Although Martin and Silla are also his allies, if they do not have the strength to deploy there, he cannot guarantee that these people will see the empty large tracts of land without being moved. In Chen Kefu's view, the only way to achieve the range of the crossbows of the Liaodong Army is the most guaranteed.
Chen Kefu had sent invitation letters to the nine Khitan tribes, Sumo Shui Moe, Silla, Baekje, Shiwei, Khitan Dahe tribe, Turks, and Hei Shui Moe, asking their tribes to send envoys to Liaodong City to meet the alliance.
Liaodong and Liaoxi are now extremely lively. Chen Kefu has just completely put down Goguryeo. However, the chain war caused by this war has not ended. The nine Khitan tribes defeated the Dahe clan step by step, but at the same time they are starting a war with Shiwei. The Sumoshui tribe, attacked by the Hei Shui Mohe, are looking for Hei Shui Mohe everywhere to revenge. Silla has turned his troops and aimed at Baekje, and both sides are fighting.
Several forces started fighting on four battlefields, which was extremely lively. The first thing Chen Kefu did every day was to read the melee reports of various parties that the Special Service Department wanted to come to, which was much more lively than the situation of the football league in later generations watching the sports newspapers. Chen Kefu was so happy to watch every day. This time he invited all parties to Liaodong, of course he would not be so kind to mediate the truce of all parties.
On the contrary, Chen Kefu planned to call them so that they could create more conflicts. For him, the more powerful these surrounding forces fought, the happier he was, the safer he was. He didn't want them to truce the battle as they fought.
"Master, Deputy Commander is looking for a meeting!" Chen Lei knocked in and interrupted the battle report that Chen Kefu was watching happily.
"What else will you tell me when the deputy coach comes? How many times have you told you? Please come in quickly."
Putting down the battle report in his hand, Chen Kefu started to make a cup of tea for Li Benlei, "Sit down quickly, is there anything wrong?"
Li Benlei handed him a roll of white paper with words in his words, "This is what I wrote according to the commander's intention. The officers of the Liaodong camp will be trained in the rotation of the officers of the Liaodong camp. According to the commander's intention, the scope of the rotation of this time is larger than the previous few times. This time we will not only train the gang leader, team leader, and regiment commander at all levels, but also train the generals of the Pojun martial arts lecture hall for all senior generals and above in the Seventh Army. According to the plan, 70% of all the generals of the Seventh Army who are strengthening the battalion and above will be transferred back to Liaodong City to participate in the training camp. This is the list."
Chen Kefu took it and looked at it. The names of thirty-one senior generals were listed on it. These were all officers with the rank of brigadier generals in the army. The minimum position was a general manager of a 4,000-person reinforcement battalion. Except for the central army, all the general managers of the other six armies were listed.
"Master, Liaodong has not been completely pacified. Suddenly, all senior generals in nearly seven levels of the army were transferred back to the training camp. Isn't this a bit inappropriate? If something happens, I'm afraid that the army will not be able to deal with it." Li Benlei didn't know why Chen Kefu suddenly had to conduct a large-scale training camp, and was a little worried for a while.
The study was very quiet. Chen Kefu looked at the list quietly, picked up the pen and stroked one or two from time to time, and added one or two from time to time.
The drunkard's intention was not to drink. At this time, he suddenly conducted a large-scale military officer training, and for the first time he held a general-level military officer training. Of course, the purpose of this was not to increase the military literacy of the generals. In general, this large-scale mobilization was Chen Kefu's start to carry out a reshuffle in the army. Not only that, he and Mao Xi had formulated a detailed military personnel mobilization plan.
Chen Kefu's rebellion has begun, and the army is the first to be mastered. Now Mao Yi's left front army and Lu Shishen's left wing army are still his own central army, so they are definitely the confidant. Even if they are rebelling now, the soldiers of the three armies will basically respond immediately. As for the investigation and training, Chen Gui's right wing army was basically in their hands. When the Sixth Division was established, Chen Kefu's appointment arrangements for officers were already preparing for this. After several months of hard work, with the efforts of Mao Yi, Lu Shishen and other generals in the army, they have won over a large number of reliable middle and low-level generals.
Now it is time to attack the troops led by Hu Hai, Zhang He and Liu Tiezhu. Although he is not sure that these three people will definitely oppose him, before the showdown, he must control the troops and finally showdown, so that he can be foolproof.
This large-scale military officer training and general training are for this purpose to cover up. First, the senior generals from each army were transferred out, and then one-third of the middle and lower-level officers were drawn out for the rotation. At this time, Chen Kefu would then allocate a group of soldiers who had fought before. After promotion, they would not serve in the original army, but to other armies.
During this inter-disciplinary process, the Jinyiwei of the Investigation Department, which has not been famous, has already done enough investigations. The Jinyiwei of the Investigation Department has been responsible for monitoring the generals in the army, but it is very secretive. The Special Service Department has performed well for several months and is the most eye-catching unit among the Marshals. When it comes to the Special Service Department, it will definitely be praised by many people. The Investigation Department and even some middle and low-level officers will not know about this department. This time, after receiving Chen Kefu's order, it was a life-long effort. Not long after, they took out the situation in the three armies of Zhang He, Liu Tiezhu, and Hu Hai.
Which officer was close to them, which one was a fellow villager, or even before coming to Liaodong, they all knew each other clearly. Based on this information, Chen Kefu transferred most of the battalion-level generals who were closest to Hu Hai and other three main generals to train, some were intermediary, and the remaining part was promoted to other troops.
But the officers transferred to the three armies were all transferred from the three legitimate troops of the Central Army, the Left Front Army and the Left Fang Army. Not only that, Chen Kefu also acted very well this time for the grassroots team leader and the non-commissioned officer. The group of non-commissioned officers in the military lecture hall had been trained for nearly three months, and this time Chen Kefu also transferred all these young non-commissioned officers who had been trained as direct troops to the three armies as team leader.
This is a major blood change. The lower and middle-level officers have been replaced by direct troops who are loyal to them. After the training of senior generals, Chen Kefu will also rotate the deputy general manager of the seven armies, marching Sima, and marching chiefs of the seven armies. At that time, Hu Hai and others will return to the army. If they are unwilling to be on the same mind as Chen Kefu, they will also find that in addition to being the nominal lord of the army, they have been undermined. Of course, if they are on the same mind as themselves, they will become their own people, and the people below will naturally obey the orders of the heads of each armies, and only guard against Hu Hai and others against their own orders.
"General Mao Yi from the domestic city and General Chen Gui from Fuyu City will not have to participate in the training camp. The rest should be based on your list. As for the generals at the brigadier level, except for a few people, I have adjusted the rest, the others will be based on your list." Chen Kefu smiled and handed them back to Li Benlei.
After drinking a few sips of tea, Chen Kefu smiled and said, "Actually, there is a more important reason to call them back at this time. I am worried that the military discipline and style will decline after each general and town, so I specially summoned them back to take care of them. Secondly, the situation in Liaodong and western China is also very lively. I have sent an invitation to the tribes to invite them to come to Liaodong to meet and discuss and resolve it. This is a big event, and I also need all the generals in the army to discuss together."
"Master, the princess is looking for a meeting!" Chen Lei walked in and said softly.
When Li Benlei heard that the princess was coming, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Then I will go back first. After I go back, I will ask the Special Service Department to send the list of trained officers to the troops." After taking two steps, he turned back and hesitated at Chen Kefu, "Master, this is not what I said, but I will rely on my seniority to make a living. Da Zheng, you have an engagement with the daughter of the Tang Kingdom, but now you are entangled with this Silla Princess. I am afraid that the future will not end. Da Zheng is a Guanlong family, and with his support, Da Zheng will be better in the court in the future. Now Da Zheng is young and has made such a great contribution. If no one in the court supports it, it will be very difficult. Don't annoy the Li family because of this matter, it will be unfavorable to you."
Chen Kefu smiled slightly at this deputy commander like his father, "Whether the master is so powerful or the birds are hidden, will the generals like me always end like this? But I, Chen Kefu, aren't that the person who is so lucky to be like this? It's just that I, Chen Kefu, are not so picky. Today, there are chaos and people are living in poverty. Sometimes, those who hold soldiers and horses in your hands cannot blindly look at their feet." Chen Kefu's words were already vaguely expressing his feelings to Li Benlei.
Li Benlei's mind was shaken, his pupils widened a little, and his eyes stared straight at Chen Kefu. After a while, he sighed and said nothing, he turned around and left, but his eyes seemed to be much older. He had always wanted to be a pure soldier, but the information he suddenly knew made him unable to calm down.
