Chapter 287 Punishment of Li Ge (2)

The remaining nearly 90,000 troops were also numbered as Tiangang. The commanders of each army were selected from the former generals of each army.

In ancient times, marching and fighting were extremely inconvenient, and using tens of thousands of people as the army would not have put too much command pressure on the commander.

Wen Tianxiang no longer directly under the jurisdiction of the Yuan Xingguo Army, but was appointed by Zhao Dongting as the deputy marshal of the world's troops and horses, commanding the overall situation. The Grand Marshal was personally hung with seals.

The Song Dynasty military system, which had originally completely collapsed due to war, was initially regulated by Zhao Dongting.

At present, the Southern Song Dynasty court almost paralyzed all parts except Lei Qiong on Guangnan West Road, except for Lei Qiong, and there was no defender. The reorganized 150,000 troops were reorganized and then dispersed. With Pingnan as the center, they guarded the surrounding important areas.

In Wuzhou City, the two armies of Tianyong and Tianxiong were still stationed, and the Tianshen army was transferred to the Tianshen army to help and defend.

Qi Tianlang, the commander of the Tianshang Army, was a Miao people. He originally lived in Qinzhou and received an order to recruit thousands of young and strong men in his clan to Pingnan.

He was originally a leader in the clan, also known as the Wolf King. He was born extremely burly and rough, had extremely strong martial arts skills, and even more than Yue Peng.

Tiankui Army, Tiangang Army, Tianji Army, and Tianxian Army are in the center to lead Pingnan.

Tianying Army Lu Yu, Tianwei Army Yang Fan, and Tianman Army Jiang Xiu led troops to town Cenxi County south of Wuzhou.

The Tianxuan Army, the commander of the Tiangu Army, Ge Lichun and Ge Xiuhong are brothers, and they jointly stationed in Yulin Mansion in the south and southwest corner of Pingnan.

The remaining Tianmeng Army, Tiangui Army, and Tianfu Army are located in Yangshou Prefecture, Xiangzhou, which is located in the northwest corner of Pingnan.

Five cities are almost rectangular, with Pingnan in the middle. If a great battle begins, no matter which direction the Yuan army attacks, they can respond to each other from afar.

Originally, most of the commanders of the army were not in Pingnan, but they hurried to meet the saint when they heard that Zhao Dongting was about to come.

Zhao Dongting entered the city while laughing with the generals. He couldn't help but feel that heroes came from troubled times. Among the newly promoted commanders of the army, except for Ge Xiuhong, Ge Lichun and the other generals were over fifty years old, and the other generals were not over thirty years old. Qi Tianlang, the oldest wolf king, was still a few months away from thirty years old.

Lu Yu, the youngest commander of the Tianying Army, was Lu Ying, the commander of Jinghu North Road. Lu Ying was killed on the way to Pingnan. Lu Yu took on the heavy responsibility and showed his outstanding military talent. He was only twenty years old.

Even Yang Fan, the commander of the Tianwei Army, was only twenty-one years old.

If this were in modern times, it would be the age when they had just left society. But now, they have been supported as commanders of the military commanders.

Such positions are naturally considered to be the mainstay of the Song army.

When they arrived at the main hall of the government office in Pingnan County, Zhao Dongting lived high in the hall, and the generals stood in line below.

Zhao Dongting glanced at the hall and said, "Today, I will introduce you to you. The former Sichuan Commander, the Sichuan Tiger General Zhang Jue and Zhang."

Zhang Jue, who stood in the last line of the queue, approached the hall gate, bowed and signaled to the generals.

All the generals were shocked.

Zhang Jue resisted the Yuan army in Sichuan for many years, defeated the Yuan army repeatedly, and made outstanding achievements in military affairs. Who has never heard of his name?

Seeing that he bowed, all the generals did not dare to neglect them, and returned the greetings repeatedly, and even Wen Tianxiang bowed to Zhang Jue.

Zhao Dongting chuckled and nodded, saying, "From now on, Lord Zhang Jue will be the chief military commander of our Song Dynasty, and will assist the military commanders to take charge of military affairs."

The Du Yuhou of this era is actually similar to the political commissar of the military in later generations, so he would not have allowed the military chief to take over the power.

When the generals heard Zhao Dongting's words, their expressions became even more awesome and said respectfully: "The last general has met the Chief Yu Hou."

Zhang Jue was a little stunned.

Since Jun Tianfang rescued him to Haikang, he repeatedly mentioned that he would go to Pingnan to take charge of the army, but Zhao Dongting never expressed any of it, and he had no intention of re-appointing his official position in the court. He thought that even if he went to Pingnan, he would probably get a free job and his real force would have to develop his own strength. After all, the commander commander of each army had already been appointed, but he did not expect that the emperor would actually be appointed as the chief commander of the world's military.

This position is second only to the military commander Wen Tianxiang and deputy military commander Su Liuyi in the military commander.

Su Liuyi is in charge of Haikang, which means that among the 150,000 troops on Guangxi South Road, his status is second only to Wen Tianxiang. Moreover, Du Yuhou's position is a bit special, and he has the position of supervising commander. His status is only slightly worse than Wen Tianxiang.

This is definitely a great favor.

It took several seconds before Zhang Jue came to his senses and knelt on the ground with red eyes, "My teacher Zhang Jue thanked the emperor."

Zhao Dongting waved his hand, "Mr. Zhang doesn't need to be polite. You are a tiger general. With you helping the military order, Guangxi will definitely be worry-free."

Zhang Jue said heavily: "I am so sad!"

On this day, the Pingnan County Government held a banquet, and Zhao Dongting and other generals drank together.

The fifteen troops on the South Road of Guangxi were all listed, including commanders of each army, commanders of the deputy commanders of the capital, and guards of the capital.

In addition to the few people including Su Liuyi and Liu Hongyi who were still in Haikang, all the ten thousand men of the Southern Song Dynasty were present.

Zhao Dongting was also moved when he looked at the lively generals in front of him, and his passion and ambition arose.

The Song Dynasty grew from less than 20,000 troops to the current 150,000 troops in just over two years. I don’t know how much effort he devoted to this. Including the Huanglong Imperial Guard in Leizhou and the Qiongzhou Army in Qiongzhou, the number of people was even greater.

Now the Song Dynasty is finally no longer just a little ant. Compared with the tiger in the Yuan Dynasty, it can be considered a wolf in front of it.

After the banquet, Zhao Dongting personally taught the generals that the armor and weapons specially brought from the Hikvision Military Industry Department and the red cloak.

These armor and weapons were carefully forged with his improved new smelting method. They were light and tough, which made the generals very happy.

It’s a bit of a pity that with the current manpower and material resources of the Military Industry Department, there is still a long way to go to equip this armored weapon with the entire army.

It was almost night when the generals who were ordered to station the rest of the cities left Pingnan and went back.

Zhao Dongting was exhausted and was also a little tired. He practiced the art of room and read a book, so he was ready to go to bed.

But as soon as he lay on the bed, he heard the guards outside report: "Emperor, General Yue is asking for a meeting."

Zhao Dongting turned over and was a little surprised. Yue Peng had just returned to the military camp, why did he come again?

When I opened the door, I saw Yue Peng kneeling in front of the door with Yue Yue.

Now Yue Yue has changed into women's clothing, with a cold face, a slim figure, and wheat-colored skin, which is as heroic as a man.

Zhao Dongting said to Yue Peng: "I have already told you about the past and will not blame you. Yue Peng, what are you doing?"
