On the other hand, since he decided to reorganize the army, Li Jing has been busy.

First, he saw Yangsong off for the fleet heading north to explore the sea route, and then he rushed to the Tianqi City without stopping.

After meeting with Huo Qubing in Tianqi City, he rushed to Shanhaiguan immediately.

After a light cart, Li Jing, Huo Qubing, Zhou Wu and his party ran for more than three days and rushed to Shanhaiguan at noon on the fourth day.

This is also the war horse cultivated by the Xia Kingdom. If it is an ordinary horse, it will take three or four days to cultivate after running 200 kilometers a day.

In the afternoon of the same day, Li Jing took Huo Qubing and Liu Qi and the other two read Yang Song's order to Di Qing, Lu Su, Zhang Wei and Yu Shu.

Let Zhang Wei go back to serve as the director of the Military Bureau, and Yu Shu serve as the director of the Military Bureau. After the reorganization, he can take the remaining soldiers back to take office.

"General Zhang, you should call Director Zhang. Congratulations. This time I go back, I will become an important official around the emperor. Unlike us, I have to guard the border for the country in this desolate and remote place." Di Qing held his fist at Zhang Wei and congratulated him repeatedly.

Zhang Wei clasped his fists and replied, "General Di, don't joke. This time I go back, I'm really away from the battlefield, alas~."

Zhang Wei said at the end and sighed, as if he was still a little nostalgic about the battlefield.

"Everyone, we will assemble the army early tomorrow morning and start reorganization." Li Jing interrupted the chat of several people. He was busy. There were still a lot of things in Tianqi City waiting for him to go back to do.

"Yes, General!" Everyone clasped their fists and led their orders.

Although Zhang Wei and Di Qing were both generals, they were only major generals, and Li Jing was a lieutenant general. Although he was the boss from heaven, the few people dared not have any disrespectful thoughts.

Early the next morning, all the soldiers of the Infantry Brigade and the Guard Brigade gathered in the pass, and some auxiliary militia were on the pass wall to guard the pass.

The first thing to be selected is the soldiers of the Imperial Guard. The gap is a battalion, and the original Guards were all converted into Jinyi Guards. The result of the Imperial Guards, Yang Song and Li Jing, was to prepare to form a heavy battalion.

The heavy-armed battalion consists of a heavy-armed army, a heavy cavalry formation, a heavy-armed brigade, a far-off brigade and a light cavalry brigade, with a total of 1,100 people.

Although such a heavy-armed battalion cannot run for a long distance, it is still more than enough to guard the Apocalypse City, and as a strategic support reserve team, it can also have strong support effects.

After disrupting the selection, Li Jing and the three generals present selected the most elite 1,100 soldiers, and Zhou Wu brought them to the side for training.

Zhou Wu followed Li Jing to Shanhaiguan but received Yang Song's order. Yang Song ordered Zhou Wu to not return to Tianqi City immediately after receiving the Imperial Guards, but to garrison in Shanhaiguan. After the subsequent replenishment forces were in place, he would return to Tianqi City.

The order Yang Song gave Zhou Wu was suggested by Li Jing. Li Jing's original words were: "Shanhaiguan lacks such an elite force. If the enemy attacks at this time, it may be unexpected."

Although neither Chen Ping's intelligence nor Shanhaiguan's scouts found any signs of an enemy's attack, they were not afraid of being able to take a photo of 10,000 yuan.

Then he formed a regular infantry brigade again, led by Li Jing, Di Qing and Lu Su to select more than 3,000 of the remaining 5,500 soldiers to form a regular infantry brigade.

However, the reorganized infantry brigade is a bit different from the original organization. There is a heavy battalion in the original infantry brigade, but after being selected by the Imperial Guards, the remaining heavy infantry and heavy cavalry are no longer enough to reorganize a heavy battalion.

Therefore, the organization of the infantry brigade has become two conventional battalions plus one artillery formation, one light cavalry formation and one far-attacking formation. Moreover, because one artillery brigade in the second conventional battalion does not have sufficient siege artillery, it can only be replaced by one far-attacking brigade.

Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the infantry brigade after the reorganization decreased, which is also one of the reasons why Li Jing suggested that the Imperial Guards be stationed here.

All the cavalry among the remaining more than 2,000 soldiers were commanded by Huo Qubing. There were not many cavalry left, only about 700, all of them were subordinate to Huo Qubing and turned into two light cavalry formations.

For the last more than 1,200 light infantrymen, Li Jing assigned a battalion of soldiers to be under the name of the city guards under the Guard Bureau. The remaining nearly 100 soldiers Li Jing was preparing to bring them back to Tianqi City, and they would become instructors and officers of the conscript troops.

At this point, nearly 7,000 soldiers have been "divided up", and each unit will conduct training in Shanhaiguan for a period of time. The officers are familiar with their soldiers, and the soldiers must also become familiar with their superiors again.

The three major generals were also familiar with their new subordinates. Except for a few original subordinates, the rest were all formed after disruption.

Ren Xian was originally a squadron leader under the Light Cavalry formation to which the Infantry Brigade, but now he has become the leader of the Light Cavalry Brigade of the Imperial Guard. Zhu Cheng made up for the vacancy of Ren Xian.

Zhu Cheng was originally a squadron leader of the light cavalry formation during the Guardian Battalion. During the war to take back the caravan, he added to the Infantry Brigade. Now he has been promoted to the captain of the Light Cavalry Brigade.

The Qi army was originally the leader of the light cavalry formation of the guard brigade. After the expansion of the guard brigade, it became the battalion commander of the light cavalry battalion of the guard brigade. Now after reorganization, he became a battalion commander of the cavalry battalion of the cavalry brigade, but at this time he had only one light cavalry formation under his command.

Yan Ren's former commander of the long-distance attack formation of the guard battalion, and was promoted to the battalion commander of the long-distance attack formation of the guard brigade, and now he became the battalion commander of the second regular battalion of the infantry brigade.

Liu Yan was originally the leader of the melee formation of the Guardian Battalion. During the expansion of the army, he was also promoted to the battalion commander of the melee camp of the Guardian Brigade. At this moment, he followed Zhang Wei and became the only battalion commander of the City Guard.

This is roughly the case for other officers. After the reorganization, there are fewer subordinates. Fortunately, no one is the "bare commander".

Some of the staffing is not full, because the vacancies of more than 300 martyrs who died have not been added yet.

Originally, he was planning to directly select outstanding people from the militia to supplement the army, but the militia's combat literacy is far from enough, which is also one of the original intentions of Li Jing's suggestion to implement the conscript system.

Therefore, taking advantage of the current empty period when the enemy has no time to take care of, based on the principle of preferring nothingness rather than being too bad, we can only wait until excellent soldiers appear among the conscripts before replenishing them.

If it weren't for knowing that the enemy did not have the ability to attack, Yang Song would not have agreed to such a big change in the army.

It is also because of this that under the pressure of foreign enemies, all the soldiers of the army quickly reorganized with very efficient action.

Another reason for Yang Song to agree to the reorganization was Li Jing's words: "The army is not a private soldier of a general. In order to prevent the reasonable movement of gangs, gang forces, soldiers and officers in the army."

Li Jing's words reminded Yang Song of the sentence "The iron-clad soldiers are flowing through the river", which is not only used to describe the alternation of new and old soldiers, but also a system implemented to prevent this situation from happening.

That's why Yang Song made up his mind to improve the military system at this moment. He didn't want a general who wanted to rebel in the future.

After the entire army was reorganized, it is inevitable that the army would experience a decline in combat effectiveness, but long pain is worse than short pain. As long as the combat effectiveness is trained, these excellent generals, officers, and soldiers will be quickly made up for it.

With the expansion of Xia State's army, it is very likely that such a situation may occur in the future. It is also good to adapt to it in advance and summarize the experience.
