Chapter 963: Nanya Sixteen Guards


The Sixteen Guards of the Imperial City refer to the forbidden army, including the left and right guards, the left and right Xiao guards, the left and right military guards, the left and right Wei Weiwei, the left and right Jinwu guards, the left and right leading guards, the left and right Qianniu guards, and the left and right prison guards, collectively known as the sixteen guards of the South Ya.

Among the sixteen guards, the number of people varies, tens of thousands of people, thousands of people, can be regarded as the elite of the Tang Dynasty, all fought all the way, in addition, Li Shimin now has a 10,000-person army and horses, which is also known as the strongest combat power of the Tang Dynasty.

And the next thing to do is not to immediately group the military headquarters, but to reintegrate the 16 guards of the Southern Ya.

Li Shimin's plan, the Beiya Forbidden Army belongs to a very special group of soldiers and horses, and the current supply of funds has reached a limit.

And the Nanya Forbidden Army is different, like the prison guards are the soldiers and horses guarding the city gate, and so many soldiers and horses are classified into a group is very messy, he is going to separate the sixteen guards and divide them into the Nanya Forbidden Army and the Forbidden Army Inner Guard.

Since the combat power of the Northern Ya Forbidden Army is extraordinary, the Southern Ya Forbidden Army will also be built into an iron-blooded division, the difference may be that the Southern Ya will be dominated by infantry, and the internal guards of the Forbidden Army will replace the prison guards and other guards to protect the safety of the imperial city, and the personnel will be selected from the Northern Ya Forbidden Army and the future Southern Ya Forbidden Army, so it can be said that the internal guards of the Forbidden Army are the elite of the Forbidden Army.

At the same time, it is also necessary to set up the Tang Dynasty naval troops, and the main military camps will be set up in Cangzhou, Suzhou, Fuzhou, Lingnan, Donghaizhou and other places, mainly in the name of the fleet, to protect the Tang coastal defense.

The blueprint in Li Shimin's heart is very ambitious, and King Lu doesn't know that his rebellion really brought a turning point to Datang.

Above the court, the generals were discussing, and all of them of the Sixteen Guards were handed over, so Li Shimin immediately appointed Li Ji as the commander-in-chief of the Sixteen Guards of the Southern Ya, and Hou Junji, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was responsible for preparing the logistics support department.

"Send someone to inform Li Jing to come to the court meeting."

Li Shimin said suddenly.

Li Jing is a person who has made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, and he is suspected of being a master of high merit, and when there is no war, Li Jing basically does not go out and does not entertain, and now His Majesty has sent someone to call him, it seems that things are not simple.

Hou Junji was very depressed in his heart, he was arranged to prepare for the grouping of the military department, and looking at this posture of the strategic defense department, it seemed to be a little far away from him.

After waiting for a while, Li Jing came.

"Your Majesty."

Li Jing was a little puzzled that our family was idle, and he was going to go to the sports school in Lantian Economic Development Zone to give guidance to some children, and now that His Majesty had summoned him to the palace, he thought that another enemy was coming.

"Well, you will be in hiding, the reorganization of the military department, you will temporarily serve as the deputy commander of the strategic defense department, and cooperate with Li Ji, Hou Junji and others to complete this important reorganization plan."

Li Shimin said.

Li Jing was a little confused, he was reorganized, and he became the deputy commander as soon as he came in, what the hell is it In fact, everyone is not too clear, Li Shimin doesn't care about the official positions of those who have been given first, and the word "temporary" has been added to the names in front of them, so that everyone has no worries in confusion.

Then Li Shimin took out a thick plan, don't underestimate these papers, there are very important things recorded in them.

"This is a reorganization plan, from today onwards, the military department is not divided into two but is independent from the six divisions and expanded, I hope you will not let me down."

Li Shimin said.

Ma He sent the plan down, and now the personnel have basically been finalized, compared to the war, the reorganization plan made now will be a new challenge, and the same as the Xuanwu Gate after the division of the soldiers, the Tang Dynasty's military department will be different from today.

Subsequently, Qin Qiong, Wei Chi Jingde, and these founding princes all arrived, and a group of people discussed things in the palace, and they did not leave the palace for three consecutive days, and the civil officials who originally thought that there was going to be an "earthquake" did not know what His Majesty was doing.

Things didn't seem to think about anything earth-shattering, everything was calm, and a few days later, the sixteen guards of Nanya had come to the school yard a few times and then it was like sand sinking into the sea, and there was no movement.

The most elite Qianniu Wei of the Sixteen Guards became the Jinyi Guard, acting as the responsibility of supervising the entire military department, and the remaining fifteen guards all became the Nanya Forbidden Army according to the plan, and the integration speed was very fast, and the clothing and equipment were successfully transformed into one, and all the systems and official ranks have not changed, at least not yet.

Because of the abolition of the government soldier system, there is a very serious gap in the source of soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty, but most people don't know that the new round of conscription has started in a very low-key manner in this case.

The military household will be preferential treatment in the future, and the military household will not have hereditary restrictions, but the military household can receive the subsidy issued by the military department, and there is also the right to priority employment recommendation, there is no coercion, the road has become wider, and the military household has become a symbol of honor, and the change is imperceptible.

After the abolition of the government soldier system, the imperial court collected all the armor of the original government soldiers and military households, and issued subsidies, in the form of a bit like buying military armor, but the money is fixed and will definitely be given more than the military armor.

The eldest grandson Wuji began to have a headache, only the military household subsidy, these expenditures in less than a month pointed out hundreds of thousands of yuan, and the number of new recruits reached 100,000, so far, the treasury expenditure is huge, the construction of military camps has to be trained, deployed, manpower, material and mental resources are consumed.

In addition to the artillery, the cavalry of the other Northern Ya Forbidden Army became a teaching regiment, first divided the ghost hunting cavalry 30 captains to train the integrated Southern Ya Forbidden Army, and then the remaining Northern Ya Forbidden Army divided thousands of people to train 100,000 newly recruited men and horses.

After another month of tossing and turning, Li Shimin personally participated in it, holding the military power, integrating and reorganizing, and the Nanya Forbidden Army already had a preliminary appearance.

The matter of the right to command the army is very simple, the state officials participate in the training of the troops, and they can practice with them, but there is only this right, and without the joint dispatch order of the military department, no one wants to mobilize a soldier and a pawn.

People like Li Jing and Li Ji have found their positions, because the deputy commander is not only the two of them, as the commander has a great responsibility, which makes Li Jing happy, after two months of reorganization, he found that it seems that his status in the eyes of the emperor, and even the entire military department is not conspicuous at all.

In the past, he personally led the troops out to fight, but now after the reorganization, there is no need for this at all, as long as these senior commanders are responsible for strategizing in the rear, the front line is all handed over to the grassroots officers and soldiers.

Moreover, it belongs to the joint senate, the "round table", and his strategy is only one point of many strategies, and if it is passed, it needs to be voted on by all the personnel of the military department, and he feels very comfortable with this.

I hope readers can support a lot, ask for rewards, ask for collections, and give a few recommended votes:
