【Second update today】

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At the end of February, all 500 officers recruited by Wang Chenhao arrived, which improved the command structure of the newly established army.

In the last few days of this month, Wang Chenhao, together with Yang Shixiang, Zhang Peilun, Hannagen, Wang Shizhen, Duan Qirui, Jiang Guite, Feng Guozhang and other major aides, foreign teachers and new army generals, formulated the training and training script for the New Army First Division.

The new army, new atmosphere, and training methods must be aligned with the army of a world-class power. Based on the concept of learning the German army and surpassing the German army, the Zhili New Army First Division first stipulated the organization of the First Division.

The First Division of the New Army of Zhili is referred to as the New Army of Zhili, which is called the New Army of Beiyang, or the New Army of Beiyang. The New Army of Beiyang takes the divisions organized by the German Standing Army as the training unit, and stipulates that the divisions are standing army units and will be expanded into an army during wartime.

Its organization is: each division has 2 infantry brigades, each brigade has 2 infantry regiments, each regiment has 3 infantry battalions, each battalion has 3 infantry companies, each company has 3 platoons, each platoon has 3 squads, and each squad has 15 people;

The division has a cavalry regiment and an artillery regiment. It is stationed in the division headquarters in normal times. During wartime, the division headquarters retains a direct battalion system. The other two battalions are delegated to the first-level combat units of the brigade, and the brigade level can also be delegated to the first-level combat units of the regiment according to actual combat conditions.

In addition, the division directly has 1 engineering battalion, 1 communication battalion, 1 logistics battalion, and 1 police adjustment reconnaissance battalion.

The entire division has 12,500 people, including 700 officers and officers, 10,450 front-line combatants, and 1,350 second-line medical logistics personnel.

According to the "Soldier Training and Practice Classic", Wang Chenhao adopted the German military system, tactics, techniques and practice classes in terms of military training ideas. Joint training was conducted by instructors and foreign instructors in the domestic military preparation school. During the training, the "Main Rules for Training", "Bank System", "Sales Chapter" and so on were formulated. Yang Shixiang and Wang Shizhen also improved the training outlines based on Wang Chenhao's compilation of "Brief Records of New Army Soldiers" and "Detailed Description of New Army Soldiers", and drew them in pictures and texts, so that the illiterate soldiers could see at a glance at the picture, and practiced with reference to the pictures, saving the instructors a lot of trouble.

In terms of military strategy, Hannagan gave Wang Chenhao more than a dozen textbooks he wrote in the Berlin Military Academy in Germany, as well as some German army textbooks given to Wang Chenhao by Yinchang and Duan Qirui. Wang Chenhao did not understand German, so he seconded more than 20 translators from the Tongwenguan in Beijing. Under the correction of Zhang Peilun and Wang Shizhen, he successively translated military theory books such as "Warning Law", "Strategic Science", "New Laws of Land Warfare", "German Military and Political Essence", "Tactical Lecture Notes of German Army University", and used some lecture notes of the Beiyang Military Preparation Academy for reference, which set off a wave of learning and researching Western military theories throughout the army.

Wang Chenhao took the lead, and the officers would take one to two hours every morning to learn these theoretical courses. Due to the haste, Wang Chenhao simply asked everyone to memorize all the contents in the book and then slowly test them during the training of the recruits.

Youdao means that you can read 300 Tang poems well and you will be able to recite poems. The officers may not understand them after memorizing them, but as long as you have the chance, you will always get twice the result with half the effort. Maybe you will understand them all in the future through practice.

Wang Chenhao still adopted the Western military management methods for the training of the new army, but also joined the People's Liberation Army management methods of his era. These kings Chenhao combined them to formulate a series of rules and regulations.

There are only 29 rules and regulations formulated by the German coaching team such as Hannagan. After reading this, Wang Chenhao thought it was relatively complete. In addition to requiring officers and soldiers to pay attention to everything and not be lazy, Wang Chenhao also integrated the four major disciplines and eight points of attention in the People's Liberation Army, making the rules and regulations of the Beiyang New Army quite stylish.

After watching the German instructor group, Hannagan and other German instructors said that under the strict requirements of the rules and regulations formulated by Wang Chenhao, the Beiyang New Army will become the most civilized army in the world once the training is completed and the military rules are kept in mind.

But what Wang Chenhao wants most is a mighty army, and the most important thing is that he appreciates the party's absolute leadership over the army. In this chaotic autumn, Wang Chenhao firmly believes that power comes from the gun, and that absolute obedience to orders is to lay the foundation for Wang Chenhao to absolutely control the army, and to train the new army officers and soldiers to absolutely obey Wang Chenhao in the subconscious.

Wang Chenhao's rules and regulations were a fatal impact on the Qing army, completely subversive. Once the order was issued, the new recruits didn't think anything was wrong, most of them had a supportive attitude; the students and officers of the Beiyang Military Preparation School were also relatively adaptable and could accept it. Only some former Huai Army generals who were used to the old military regulations were obviously a little resistant.

There are always people who report on the small news, which soon reached Li Hongzhang's ears. However, after Li Hongzhang read it, he felt that Wang Chenhao was controlling military power, and he supported this, just like when Li Hongzhang wanted to control military power, Zeng Guofan also supported Li Hongzhang.

Li Hongzhang had no objection, and listened to some opinions from foreigners such as Hannagan. The foreigners had no objection, so they directly scolded some of the former Huai Army generals who had reported on the small. His new rules of support for Wang Chenhao made some of the former Huai Army generals who had been dissatisfied with Wang Chenhao's command of the army at a young age become honest.

The four major disciplines and eight points added by Wang Chenhao need to be detailed. Yang Shixiang, Zhang Peilun and Wang Shizhen then revised and supplemented them, and gradually formulated and improved the rules and regulations in subsequent training, such as "Playground Regulations", "Rules of Exercise", "Targeting Frames", "Generals and Supervisors", "Marching Charter", etc. After a series of military regulations were issued, it had revolutionary changes from the simple and crude management methods of the old Qing army, and even was very different from the German army rules and regulations.

In terms of training methods, Wang Chenhao requires that the first officers should be first and then soldiers should be taught at the same level. However, the officials can be saved. Because 98% of the officers selected by Wang Chenhao are graduates of Beiyang Military Preparation School and students of the fourth-grade graduation class, they learn completely four-year courses in German military academy and receive German-style education, so he can save the "select and send training to the camp school".

For new recruits, Wang Chenhao adopts the method of being easy first and then difficult, and proceeding step by step. The new recruits will first undergo 3 months of basic training, mainly single exercises, queues and physical fitness, then train with guns, and finally train practical movements.

The recruits received joint training from German instructors and Beiyang instructors at the same time, with German instructors being the chief and Beiyang instructors as deputy. Wang Chenhao summarized the experience of Yuan Shikai's new army training in history. Yuan Shikai was vague on this issue, but the German instructors said one thing, and the following new army officers did another thing. The hard work of the German instructors did not get rewards, and in the end they did not work hard to teach them, which made Yuan Shikai's new army not meet the standards of the German army. The new army was only at the bottom of the international level compared to the old Qing army of the Qing Dynasty.

Wang Chenhao learned this lesson, so when he was training and learning, Wang Chenhao clearly stipulated that German instructors had real power and Beiyang instructors assisted them. New military officers and soldiers must strictly abide by it, otherwise they will be eliminated.

This elimination system has been expanded at this time, from originally adapting to the recruit class, but now it has been expanded to officers at all levels. Those who disobey and are unqualified will be left. In this way, officers do not dare to be careless and always maintain a sense of competition, greatly increasing the quality and effectiveness of training.

The new book has been uploaded for a month so far, and today it is the new book list. It has been written in a total of 65 chapters, with an average update speed of more than 2 chapters per day, but the results can be said to be bleak. Perhaps it was because my book ended too quickly, which made many fans angry and left me...Woooooo... I learned from my mistakes. This book will definitely not be a eunuch, and I will insist on completing it. Let's wait and see.

In fact, the cruiser has written two works of "The Demolition Worker of the Qing Dynasty" and "The Coachman on the Sea" with a total of 5 million words. It is a bit creditable no matter what. I hope everyone can continue to support me, thank you.
Chapter completed!
