Chapter 38: Expanding the Battalion into an Army

"Don't think I don't know that your brigades are trying hard to expand their enrollment secretly, with at least six or seven hundred people. Only Chadri is more rigid and obedient, and the Fourth Infantry Brigade still has more than three hundred people." Chu Yun said.

In addition to Yang Tai, Changyi from the Second Team and Xu Ji from the Third Team also began to giggle.

Only Chadri of the Fourth Brigade was a little confused: "How can you do this? I won't inform me if I expand my enrollment. I just said that you can't finish the fight in the recent exercise."

Chu Yun looked dark. If this continues, even Chadri from France will be damaged by a few veterans.

"If you want to expand your enrollment in the future, remember to report it, otherwise you won't even think about getting the military pay, rifles and artillery." Chu Yun said, "I want to see what you have to support the hundreds of extra people."

"Sir, don't you! Are we worried that the Jin people will be short of soldiers when they fight back?" Yang Tai and others were anxious. "We think this military expansion is definitely needed, so we should rob the strong men as soon as possible, otherwise the strong men will be taken away by the factory, leaving a bunch of old, weak, sick and disabled people. Do we have to take them to fight the Jin people to the death?"

Their daring to expand their enrollment on a large scale is also supported by the firearms and economic foundation provided by Chu Yun. Once Chu Yun cuts off the supply, the army will soon mutiny.

"I won't pursue it this time. Remember, if you want to expand the army in the future, you must report it, otherwise you will be a husband for me." Chu Yun took this opportunity to establish prestige in front of the generals and the school.

"As for the order!" Seeing that Chu Yun had no intention of being particularly blamed, several people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in secret.

"Our Restoration Liao Camp now controls the Jinzhou Guards and directly borders the Later Jin Dynasty. We are always facing the threat of tens of thousands of troops from the Later Jin Dynasty. So I plan to officially change the Restoration Liao Camp to the Restoration Liao Army. Our mission will go from restoration of Liaonan to restoration of Liaonan and Liaodong." Chu Yun expressed his plans.

Yang Tai and others heard that Chu Yun was finally going to officially expand his army, and their eyes lit up. The Fu Liao army was built by Chu Yun. Chu Yun must be the leader of the army, so they will be promoted to battalion commander. The battalion commander is better than the brigade commander.

Sure enough, Chu Yun said: "The Liao army was temporarily expanded into four battalions, with the four of you serving as battalions commanders, each battalion of 800 people, and under its jurisdiction, three infantry brigades, one transportation squadron and one artillery squadron. The Fourth Infantry Battalion was directly under the military headquarters."

"The original artillery squadron directly expanded the artillery battalion, with three artillery brigades under its jurisdiction, each artillery brigade prepared twelve artillery pieces. The artillery battalion was directly under the command of the military headquarters, and the battalion commander was held by David Dong."

"In addition, the newly established cavalry brigade, the captain of the cavalry brigade shall be directly commanded by Sun Sheng. The newly established patrol brigade shall be directly commanded by Chen Ting. The captain shall be directly commanded by the Jinzhou Guard. The newly established Guanglu Island Naval Brigade shall be directly commanded by Deng Daqian, responsible for protecting the safety of merchant ships in Guanglu Island, and directly commanded by the military. The newly established transport brigade, the captain of the brigade, Zhang Long, directly commanded by the military."

Chu Yun appointed a group of new generals at one time to break the original pattern of generals and school in the Fu Liao Camp. In addition, the Fourth Infantry Battalion, Artillery Battalion, Cavalry Battalion, Transportation Battalion, Patrol Battalion, Navy Battalion were all directly commanded by the military headquarters, and the military leader's power was insignificant.

If one battalion is 800 people and one battalion is 200 people, Chu Yun’s plan to restore the Liao army is about 5,000 people. Although it is not yet reached, it would be very terrible if it really builds a unit of 5,000 people.

After hearing Chu Yun's words, Yang Tai and the others were stunned. Their chief also said that they had expanded their enrollment privately, but they didn't expect that if he came by himself, he would increase the number of people in the Fu Liao camp by 4-5 times!

"It's good to expand the army, but will it be more difficult to raise so many people?" Even Yang Tai, who made enrollment expansion the first priority, couldn't help but sweat for Chu Yun.

After years of war, there were only 10,000 households, which was equivalent to one person in every 2-3 households.

"Extraordinary things must be done! Once these five thousand elite soldiers are trained, we will go north to seize the other three guards and use war to support the war. Believe me, our factory can support us until that time." Chu Yun said.

Now Chu Yun uses the idea of ​​total warfare to turn the Jinzhou Guard into a large military camp. Only by blasting troops can we survive the crisis ahead, and once the territory becomes larger and larger, it will be easier to come later.

"Okay, since the superiors have made such a decision, it is too inappropriate for us soldiers to be restrained." Yang Tai and others were so open-minded that Chu Yun said this.

"Boss, how many artillery squadrons of our infantry battalion will be equipped with?" Yang Tai began to look forward to future artillery. Or he had already coveted the artillery of the artillery troops for too long.

"Four Gates." Chu Yun replied.

"It's only four sects... Can't the boss give me more sects?" Yang Tai asked with a smile in his eyes, and he still asked with greed.

"No more! This is a cannon, not a gun, so it's not a gun. It's not difficult to build one. Do you know how much it costs to raise a cannon every month..." Chu Yun rolled his eyes.

There are sixteen artillery pieces in four battalions, plus thirty-two artillery pieces in the artillery battalion, a total of forty-eight artillery pieces. Currently, there are only more than twenty artillery pieces in the Jinzhou Guard, which means that everything is just a big cake on paper.

"Then I apply to change positions with David Dong. I want to go to the artillery battalion to shoot artillery!" Yang Tai said dissatisfied.

"Get a cannon! When we have a navy in the future, I promise you want to be a pirate again. With a plane, you will still want to go to heaven!" Chu Yun said angrily.

"What is a flying chicken sir?" Chang Yi, Xu Ji and others asked.

"..." Chu Yun didn't know how to explain to them, "It's something that can take you to the sky. With the plane, you can go from here to the capital in less than a few hours. And you can also fly to the upper palace of the Later Jin Huang Taiji and others, throw bombs down, and blow them away directly."

Yang Tai and the others were shocked when they heard Chu Yun’s words, as if they were listening to the mythological story: “What kind of bomb bird is this? Sir, hurry up and make this flying chicken, we will blow up the people of the Later Jin Dynasty directly, and the war will be over.”

"I want to do it too." Chu Yun said helplessly. Aircraft manufacturing technology is all science and technology from the 20th century. It involves various complex technologies such as aerodynamics, fluids, internal combustion engines, alloy technology, etc. The civilization required by each technology is calculated by tens of thousands. Chu Yun, who was short of technology in the 18th century, could not find it.

"If you have difficulties in getting that flying chicken, I can help you!" Yang Tai and others expressed their loyalty when they saw Chu Yun in trouble.

"It's good that you have this sincerity, but you'd better take a shower and go to bed." Chu Yun patted their shoulders comfortably.

Yang Tai and his men looked at each other and muttered: "Is it more difficult to get a flying chicken than a cannon..."
