Of course, Zhao Yuan rarely spent the night in Yanfu Palace.
It was either the Ruizhu Palace or the concubines' quarters behind it.
That's why they achieved such a brilliant record.
Li Shishi takes charge of the Liang King's Palace
She told Zhao Yuan the names of the pregnant concubines and the dates of their pregnancies.
However, to Zhao Yuan's embarrassment, he couldn't even remember the names of some of the concubines.
Besides being exceptionally beautiful,
Or a concubine with exceptional qualities.
He didn't remember most of the other concubines' names.
He and they mostly only spent one night together.
How could I remember so many?
Moreover, he also went to Western Xia.
Several months later,
Besides what was impressive,
I can't remember the rest.
In order not to offend pregnant women,
Zhao Yuan could only awkwardly ask Zhao Yuan the names of those concubines.
Li Shishi noticed that Zhao Yuan hadn't memorized the names of the concubines.
He couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
I was also very happy.
Pretending to chat casually with King Liang,
Without making a sound, he pointed out the names of all the concubines to Zhao Yuan one by one.
"The third one from the left is Consort Cui."
"The second one from the right is the princess."
……
Zhao Yuan watched as Li Shishi introduced him to him in a calm and collected manner.
He nodded secretly.
If you encounter that fool,
Perhaps they will point with their fingers.
She also flaunted her exclusive favor to everyone.
Zhao Yuan put in some effort to memorize the surnames of all these concubines.
So that I won't not even recognize my own woman in the future...
Chapter 1695 Drilling the New Army
Early the next morning...
Zhao Yuan then stood up.
Arriving at the palace, he accompanied Zhao Yuan to the military camp to reward the troops.
The original plan was to reward all the troops on the western expedition.
However, Lu Junyi and his troops were still in Western Xia.
This honor was thus exclusively enjoyed by Wu Song's group.
After rewarding the victorious army,
Zhao Yuan and Zhao Yuan also took the opportunity to inspect the new recruits.
Tokyo already has 250,000 new recruits.
Of course, not all of these new recruits were from Tokyo.
Instead, they came from places like Jingdong Road, Hebei Road, Jingxi Road, Jingji Road, and Shaanxi.
After Zhao Yuan established the military system,
They then decided to recruit soldiers from all over the country.
However, all the troop training took place in Tokyo.
Service begins upon arrival at the camp in various locations.
In other words, military pay was also paid for the time spent on the journey.
However, the travel time was not arbitrarily determined by the local generals.
Instead, it was decided by the Tokyo coaching team.
Begin with 40 li per day.
Then it gradually increased to seventy li.
No rest is allowed during the journey.
Only those who don't fall behind in Tokyo can be considered true soldiers of the Great Liang.
Those who fall behind will be eliminated.
He returned to the local state capital to become a deputy commander.
Local training
The intensity of their drills was also not as high as that of the regular army.
However, he will have to assist the main force in the future.
Dig trenches and set up camp.
Transporting money, grain, and other miscellaneous tasks.
Some coaches were skeptical of Zhao Yuan's system.
However, the generals who had experienced battles all expressed their support.
Combat is not just about fighting skills.
In many cases, the competition is about marching ability.
An army capable of long-distance marches
They can seize the initiative in many situations.
Or attack the enemy by surprise.
The process of people from all over the country heading to Tokyo
It's actually part of the training.
The training focused on improving marching skills.
Marching sixty li per day
They are just a competent team.
A march of seventy li is only slightly more than that.
It can't be considered a forced march.
Zhao Yuan's ideal forced march should be able to cover more than 100 li per day.
They also need to be able to persist for more than three days.
Of course, many armies could not maintain such a marching intensity.
It is even more unacceptable to expect new recruits to do so.
So, on their way to Tokyo for training, the new recruits...
At most, they could only march seventy li a day.
Moreover, they conducted unified drills for the regular army in Tokyo.
It can improve the combat effectiveness of the regular army.
This also ensures that the Liang royal family maintains control over the regular army.
Zhao Yuan planned to implement a mandatory military service system.
Each person only needs to serve for three years.
They'll be training in Tokyo for six months.
The journey will likely take about six months.
Local generals wanted to amass military power and become influential.
There wasn't enough time to win over the troops.
Another one is Zhao Yuan,
The new army, which was to be trained on the main beam,
Replace all Song Dynasty troops
After the Great Liang conquered all the prefectures,
The troops guarding each prefecture and county were still the Song Dynasty's garrison troops and imperial guards.
However, these soldiers of the Song Dynasty were already corrupt and decadent.
Lacking combat effectiveness,
He also picked up many bad habits.
In times of chaos, harsh measures are necessary.
The Great Liang used strict laws to make everyone behave properly.
However, the Great Liang Dynasty could not maintain such harsh laws indefinitely.
At that time, surrendered soldiers of the Song Dynasty would inevitably harm the people.
Therefore, Zhao Yuan needed to solve this problem at its root.
Replace the surrendered soldiers with a disciplined new army.
It also changed the corrupt traditions of the Song army.
After Zhao Yuan defeated the Western Xia...
The enthusiasm for enlisting in the army soared across the land.
After Zhao Yuan destroyed Western Xia,
It reached its peak.
Many patriotic young men signed up to join the army.
He wanted to go to the battlefield and make a name for himself.
Chapter 1696 Reforming the Military System
If it weren't for the system established by Zhao Yuan,
For those who are physically weak or lack perseverance...
They were all kept outside Tokyo.
At this time, in the military camps of Tokyo.
It's probably already overcrowded.
