Chapter 494
Most of these local armed forces are organized by local prestigious gentry, the number varies, but most of them are less than a thousand.

Moreover, there is basically very little armor, and the weapons are also mixed. Many people even hold farm tools such as shovels in their hands.

This kind of armed combat power is basically not to be expected, it can be said to be at the level of the five slags of war.

Those green forest people who took refuge in the Qin army were actually similar, maybe they were more fierce than the local armed forces composed of local villagers.

Speaking of which, both sides are just the difference between the five scumbags and the six scumbags.

It is obviously impossible to let these people go to the battlefield to fight the enemy to the death, but it is still possible to use them to defend the city after reorganization and training.

For the reorganization of these people, the new military system does not apply at present. After all, it is impossible to equip them with new firearms.Therefore, these people still refer to the previous establishment of the Qin Army for reorganization.

As for their weapons and armor, part of them came from the cold weapons eliminated by the Qin army before, and the other was the weapons seized from the Dashun army.

In addition, the original leaders of these local armed forces and the leaders of those green forest people have also been awarded certain military positions.

Of course, these military positions still adopt their previous names for the time being.

The purpose of reorganizing these forces is to release the Qin army's troops from the garrison mission, and to bring these people under the control of the imperial court, so as to prevent these people from becoming too big and causing disasters to the local area.

After all, these people are basically the local emperors or bandits who caused disasters. If they can't be used for themselves, they must be eradicated.

For the reorganization of these people, Jiang Chuan adopted a hodgepodge method of mixing sand.

Combining armed disturbances and bandits in those places to form a garrison, the Qin army sent someone to serve as the chief officer and a gendarmerie to focus on military discipline and logistics management.

In this way, because the two sides dislike each other, they must not be able to unite to fight against Shangguan, and in order to suppress each other, they have to ask for help from the chief officer sent by the Qin army. Only in this way can a balanced situation be formed.

Although this will bury a lot of hidden dangers for the combat effectiveness of the entire army, it can only be done at present, which is an expedient measure.

After the world is complete, these local defense forces will inevitably be reorganized again, and those that should be retreated and dealt with should be dealt with, and they will definitely not be allowed to continue to jump.

At present, these people can only be temporarily stabilized and used to guard the place.

For the reorganization of these people, Jiang Chuan only proposed a general framework, and the specific things were delegated to the hands of Hu Zongxian, Di Qing and Bai Shan.

After all, they know the frontline affairs best, and these places have been restored in their hands, so it is most appropriate for them to come forward.

All of the above is about the reorganization of the army, and the expansion of the navy is obviously an urgent matter.

The British can send a mercenary army of 1 people to the mainland of Zhongzhou at will. Obviously, their sea power should not be underestimated.

Although Qin Jun's current navy seems to be large in scale, there are still many problems. It is okay to deal with ordinary Japanese pirates and pirates, but it may not be very powerful if it encounters the powerful British navy.

One of the biggest problems is the number of warships, and the other is the tonnage of warships.

Although the navy currently has some escort warships, heavy warships and heavy mortar warships, the largest number is the original armed transport ship.

In order to have a force that can compete with the British Navy, it is necessary to greatly increase the number of various heavy warships in the navy.

Therefore, Jiang Chuan ordered the engineering troops to build two military ports in Zhoushan and Songjiang in the south of the Yangtze River, and set up shipyards for the construction of large warships.

In Jiang Chuan's vision, the navy must be upgraded to a navy in the future.

To upgrade to a navy is not as simple as changing the name, but to make a qualitative leap in personnel, warship tonnage, equipment level and other aspects.

Even if a navy is established, it will be divided into three fleets of different magnitudes: the ocean-going fleet, the offshore fleet, and the inland river fleet, according to different operational needs.

But as we all know, ten years of the army, a hundred years of the navy.This sentence is not called for nothing.

Although Jiangchuan has a fortress base as a backing, it is obviously unrealistic to complete the above goals in a short period of time.

Therefore, the current goal can only be set on the navy's ability to stop the British in naval battles off the coast of Zhongzhou in the future. There is still a long way to go to counterattack in the ocean.

Jiang Chuan has always been a man of action. After this series of orders were conveyed, they were quickly implemented.

If you want to say that the army with the strongest execution ability in the world, it is definitely the Qin Army.

However, with the execution of these orders, the money in Jiang Chuan's hands is also rapidly decreasing.

Although the fortress base can generate millions of silver in income every month, it consumes a lot.Even the more than 1000 million taels of silver copied from the home of Wei Guogong Liu Lin and others last time are not much left.

This is still on the premise of having a fortress base. If there is no base, the amount of money that needs to be spent is absolutely huge, and it can scare people to death.

It can be said that in the current mess of the court, there is basically not much income, but places that ask for money are everywhere.

Moreover, Jiangchuan also exempted many newly recovered places from taxes.

Looking at the numbers on the book, Jiang Chuanchou's gray hair is about to come out.

Lack of money, lack of money...

As soon as the cannon rang, the gold was ten thousand taels.

The army is really a big money-burner, especially the navy is a big one among the big ones. The money spent on any heavy warship can build an infantry company.

Money, money, where are you going to get money?
Jiang Chuan frowned and walked around the room, wondering where to get money.

It is impossible to raise taxes on the people. Not to mention that many places are not in their own hands, and even the liberated places have not really stabilized.

Moreover, these places have been scraped by the Dashun Army before, and there is nothing left for the common people.If the tax is forcibly raised, not only will the reputation of himself and the court be greatly damaged, but it will also make these places shake up again.

Of course, this kind of thing that kills the chicken and takes the eggs cannot be done.

If you can't reach out to the common people, you can only reach out to the officials and dignitaries.

Do you want to learn from Li Zicheng and engage in a recovery of stolen goods?
But even if I don't care about my reputation or being scolded, it's not a long-term solution even if I can get money. Can I do it once, can I do it twice, or three times?

After all, Jiang Chuan and a few people under his command can't do the affairs of the court. Many things have to be done by those officials.

After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't think of a good solution, and Jiang Chuan's brows almost turned into a knot.

"Are you worried? I thought there would be nothing in this world to embarrass you?"

A light voice came from behind.

Jiang Chuan didn't need to look to know that this was Princess Ruo Ling who volunteered to be her maid.
