Chapter 269: Adaptation of Qin Jun

Under the auspices of Shang Wen, the infrastructure of military facilities in the north is gradually being improved. At the same time, large quantities of materials have also begun to be delivered.

There are five musket and artillery factories in Qin. Started mass production. In just a few days, more than 8,000 muskets were produced. Among them, Yingyu's Wenyang Gun Factory produces the largest number of guns, reaching more than 5,000. This is a production miracle.

These miracles are mainly attributable to Yingyu's one-time opening of four production lines, plus the stock market's sufficient source of funds. And the unique simplicity and easy processing of Li-style muskets, under the mass production of stamping machine tools. The production of the musket was completed quickly.

Now all factories have begun to equip basic equipment such as steam engines, boilers, and press machines on a large scale. The large amount of equipment of these equipments has led to mechanical manufacturing. Especially the large-scale production of steam engines, while meeting the needs of factories, is also gradually developing towards miniaturization.

The textile industry is not using animal power either, manpower is the main power, and the steam engine is used as the main power. This model is taking the lead in Zhao Gao’s Zhao textile factory. Qin is currently the largest quilt and clothing provider.

The abundance of military supplies also comes from the rapid development of Qin State's carts and horses. Before the issuance of the national debt, to be precise, all of Qin's previous logistics supplies were all levied and issued by the government for logistics supplies. This method is very mandatory. The enthusiasm of the people is generally not very high.

First of all, it is a burden to them. Then, there is a great danger to life. In addition, the road is extremely difficult to walk. Therefore, Qin's logistics supply has been in a depressive development situation.

The change was the first time Shangwen used a business model to deliver grain, grass, and logistics materials. The people in Xianyang City can spontaneously organize a large number of carriages to report on the Yamen. A preliminary registration is carried out there. Most of them are bullock carts. There are very few carriages.

Then the Yamen paid one-third of the deposit. Then he escorted the large quantities of grain and grass supplies purchased by Qin Guo. This one-third of the deposit is enough to meet the cost of the coachmen going back and forth on the road. If it goes well, there is still some remaining. Then, after reaching the destination, receive the receipt or directly deliver the bond as a reward. As a result, the people of Qin State in the slack season began to sign up for participation. A large amount of funds began to be injected into this industry.

The caravan mainly consisting of bullock carts departed from Xianyang and reached Guyang, a military town in the north, via expressways and ordinary roads. There, because the Qin Army had a large number of horses, and a large number of seized materials to deal with. These materials must be processed as soon as possible. This is Meng Tian's belief that once the important town is captured, these materials will be in the hands of the Yueshi people, so they began to sell these materials in large quantities.

In the north, there is still a large amount of bonds remaining as military pay, and these bonds become their remuneration to allocate to the coachmen. Some coachmen drove back happily. But most people are smart at calculating. Believing that the return of the empty car was really a loss, they began to purchase large quantities of the seized materials in the hands of the Qin Army, ranging from cattle and sheep to horses, as well as a large amount of leather and felt. In this way, on the return journey, these coachmen’s ox carts were changed to carriages. The speed is faster and the load capacity is greater. At the same time, there are a large number of materials purchased spontaneously.

When they return. The whole Xianyang city was a sensation. This suddenly inspired many people to participate in transportation. In the early days, the coachmen started to invest actively, buying four-wheeled carriages, and if they had some money, they formed a fleet. Qin Jun's logistics supplies were actively stimulated by this business model. Become exceptionally relaxed. There has never been a shortage of materials in the Guyang military base in the north. As for the Guyang base, there is a trend towards urban development.

Just as the transportation was solving the logistics supply of the Qin Army, the reorganization of the Qin Army's 200,000 troops was also beginning in an orderly manner.

Two hundred thousand troops began to be established in accordance with the army, division, regiment, battalion, company, platoon, and squad system proposed by Shang Wen. These systems use the common three-three system. These are the organization of the infantry division. At the same time, some cavalry was transferred from the north and returned quickly. Some cavalry units were gradually and quickly formed, and these cavalry units appeared mainly in the size of brigades. There are two regiments under the brigade. Plus a specially strengthened rapid artillery battalion.

The adoption of the establishment is followed by the timely supplement of a large number of new-style officers. A large number of officers in the new military academy graduated early. Except for some instructors, they began to serve as the most basic military chiefs in large numbers. A limited number of people, coupled with a huge number of adapted military. Make officers a valuable resource.

To promote some officers. And to ensure the continuation of the original military service system. The Qin Army began to implement a strict military rank system. Soldiers, sergeants, lieutenants, colonels, generals. Five-level system. They are divided into different groups in detail.

Soldiers are divided into private soldiers, and to award ranks, soldiers are represented by an upper pole. First-class soldiers are represented by an upper pole and a lower arc. Then came the noncommissioned officer, two on the pole. The sergeant has three strokes. Sergeant, two upper poles and one lower arc. First-class sergeants have three upper shots and two lower arcs. The sergeant has three upper shots and three lower arcs. First-class sergeant major, put a special mark in the middle of the upper pole and three arcs. It is usually represented by a five-pointed star or a triangle.

Lieutenant, second lieutenant is a military school uniform, and there is no special award ceremony, lieutenant. The original position was a senior commander in the Imperial Forest Army, but now he has become a backbone command force in the army. The lieutenant is represented by a vertical bar. There are two captains.

The school officers are divided into three levels. A copper disc and a polished and shiny iron disc are used respectively. The colonel used the special mysterious bird of the Qin Army as a representation.

The brigadier general appeared as a special commander. Most of them were selected as staff officers. Or the commander of the cavalry brigade commander. Use a star to indicate.

Major General Lieutenant General Admiral uses two to four five-pointed stars to represent.

The promotion between ranks is the responsibility of the staff. At the same time, they also began to elaborate on what happened in the general. This is the basis for their promotion of officers, and gradually this department will accumulate a huge amount of combat data. These combat data benefited the Qin army a lot.

However, the establishment of these systems does not mean that the Qin army can immediately go into combat. The lack of new weapons is still the main problem facing this army. Weapons produced in military factories are given priority to the north. They can only use a large amount of wood as a weapon for training. Only sergeants can carry out training with muskets. But the soldiers are still high. Because they are wearing new-style military uniforms and a promising promotion system. And a monthly salary of fifty and a half.
