Otherworldly Castle Era

Chapter 221 Decided to move the capital

After the military aspect, it was about the professional logistics unit.

During the last war, Yang Ren had already reported to Yang Song on this matter, and Yang Song had already issued a maintenance order to Li Jing to make plans for the logistics unit.

After the war, as the commander-in-chief of the army, Li Jing of course knew the ills of logistics, so after the war, he submitted a complete plan to Yang Song.

According to Li Jing’s suggestion, a division has more than 40,000 people. After considering the cost and practicality of its logistics, it is recommended that the logistics unit be divided into two parts.

Part of it is still based on the past mobilization model. It is usually a militia and is recruited as a logistics transport force during war. This part will occupy most of the army’s logistics and has no technical content.

The other part is to enter the army for service like ordinary soldiers. This part will be composed of the most professional parts, including but not limited to material management, equipment maintenance, medical and health, military horse maintenance, engineering construction, meal supply…

In the first part of the militia enlistment, it’s easy to say that the corresponding number of militias should be enlisted according to the number of troops dispatched.

The second part is to have an establishment. For this, Li Jing has two suggestions: one is to add a logistics engineer battalion to each division, the number of which is one battalion, and then set up a rear under the military department of the imperial court. Protect the group for unified deployment.

The second is to set up a logistics support division directly under the military department of the imperial court, and then decentralize it to the divisions, directly under the unified command of the imperial court.

The advantage of the first proposal is that it requires a small number of people and is flexible and timely. The disadvantage is that it is not convenient for the court to control the army.

The advantage of the second proposal is that it facilitates the unified planning of the military department and enhances the control of the frontline army. The disadvantage is that it is inflexible and requires a large number of people.

When there was no general rotation system before, Li Jing and Yang Song both preferred the second method, but now, of course they choose the first method.

The establishment of a post-insurance battalion is the same as the establishment of an infantry battalion of 1,500 people. It has an engineer company, a medical company, a maintenance company, an army and horse company, and a comprehensive company.

The organization of the rear protection regiment is the same as that of a standard infantry regiment of 8,400 people. It consists of an engineer battalion, a medical battalion, a maintenance battalion, an army horse battalion, and a support battalion, as well as an integrated company, a guard company, and one The standard three-hundred-member regiment.

In this way, the strength of the First, Second, and Third Divisions became 48,000, and the strength of the Fourth Division and the Imperial Guard became 46,800.

With these five divisions alone, the combined force has reached 237,600 men!

If you count the city guards, navy, marines, and the remaining Jinyiwei, the total strength of Xia’s country will exceed 300,000!

But for Xia’s total population of more than 25 million, the military-civilian ratio has only reached 1.2%.

This ratio is not high at all. Only twelve out of a thousand people are soldiers, and as the total population of Xia continues to grow, this number will continue to decrease, while the number of troops will be in the future. , Keep this scale unchanged for a long time.

Xia Kingdom has just occupied more than 1.5 million square kilometers of land. It can be expected that the population of Xia Kingdom is about to usher in a new peak of growth.

After the affairs of the Military Department were over, Yang Song ordered Li Jing and the generals: “Integrate the army as soon as possible, and then immediately send troops to clean up the foreigners on the country’s land, so that the people of the country can live in peace!”

“The ministers, wait for your orders!”…

“Report to the great king, the minister has something to play!” When Xun Yu saw Yang Song talk about the land of the new station outside the immigration, he organized a report: “The minister suggested that the capital be moved!”

Xunyu’s suggestion made this hall of discussion suddenly quiet. After a while, Yang Song looked at him incomprehensibly and asked, “Wen Ruo, what’s the explanation for this?”

Regarding the suggestion of moving the capital, Xun Yu did not report it to him in advance. This surprised Yang Song. Why did he suddenly think of moving the capital?

“Go back to the King.” Xun Yu replied: “After the expansion of the territory of this country, it has become a long and narrow shape from north to south and short from east to west. The north is more and the south is less. The Apocalypse City is located in the south of the country, which is not conducive to the rule of the northern territory!

After Xun Yu said that, Yang Song immediately looked at Xia Guo’s map in the system, and it was exactly as Xun Yu said.

The other important ministers, especially Zhang Juzheng, were preparing to refute Xun Yu’s suggestion, but after listening, they didn’t say anything to refute, because they all knew that Xun Yu was right.

“Where is the new capital to be moved in the meaning of Wenruo?” Yang Song’s question has already expressed his approval.

Xunyu replied with his hands folded: “King Qi, the minister suggested that the capital be moved to the middle of the Linhai Basin.”

Before everyone asked, Xun Yu went on to explain: “The Linhai Basin has the Linhai Mountains in the north, the Tiangu Mountains in the south, Shanhaiguan Pass in the north, and Tianchuan Pass in the south. It has become a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.”

“Also living in the confidant of the country’s territory, the place where the north controls the customs, and the place where the south system rises, it is conducive to the court’s rule over various places.”

“In addition to the pleasant climate, the four seasons are like spring, extending in all directions, the king can live here, away from the scorching heat and frost!”

“Finally, if the news of the king’s move to the north is informed to the people, it can encourage the people to move out of the customs and benefit the development of the land outside the customs.”

Hearing Xun Yu’s big talk, Yang Song also had to admire his reasoning, especially with regard to the climate. It is not his hypocritical Yang Song. It is still uncomfortable that most of the summer is a year.

“Whether the new is to choose a city and change it, or choose a place to build it?” Yang Song again agreed to Xun Yu’s suggestion.

As Yang Song’s question settled, before Xun Yu could speak, the other ministers had spoken out, changed or built, and the discussion hall was very lively in an instant.

The move of the capital is such an important matter. If you didn’t participate in it, the ministers would not be able to justify it. If you don’t show it, there will be no chance to show it!

People like Zhang Juzheng and Zhu Xi are in favor of choosing a city and changing it in order to save money.

People like Chen Ping and Shen Kuo think that they should choose a place to build the new capital in order to re-plan the new capital.

After some discussions, Yang Song finally decided that it would be better to build a new capital. Although the cost is higher and the time-consuming is longer, it can save a lot of troubles such as demolition and resettlement of the people.

More importantly, the newly built capital city can disrupt the checks and balances of the original forces. To put it bluntly, it is to shuffle the folks.

After making up his mind, Yang Song finally asked, “Is there a place to build a city?”

“The King of Enlightenment!” Xu Xiake, the director of the State Administration of Land Resources and Geographic Information under the Department of Administration, stood up and replied: “The minister knows that there is a place to build a capital!”

After Yang Song asked Li Jing to take out the map of Linhai Basin, UU read www. Xu Xiake from uukanshu.com stepped forward and took a look and pointed to a tunnel in the picture: “This place is located in the middle of the mountain pass about Shanhaiguan, close to the East China Sea 210 kilometers, and 90 kilometers to the north is the Daihe River. There is a small river in the north. It flows northwest into Huichuan Lake, which is 81 kilometers northwest. It has an open terrain and is convenient for building a city. It can also lead the Beigui River into the city, either for drinking or as a moat.”

The ministers raised their heads to see the map displayed in the front, but they never saw a point, but Yang Song found the place Xu Xiake said on the system map.

Looking down from the top, Yang Song can see this place more objectively and macroscopically, but as Xu Xiake said, this place is suitable for building a city.

It’s just that there is already a small town in this place. People grow rice on both sides of the river. If you want to build a city here, you still need demolition and resettlement.

Think about it. After many years of development in Xia Guo, Linhai Basin has been developed very deeply. How can there be a vacant land waiting for Yang Song to build a city?

This is also the reason why Yang Song is above the high hall. Even if he knows the major events of Xia Guo, how can he know something like this?

Yang Song finally made a final decision: “Just build the capital here, named ‘Zhongjing’!”
