Chapter 123, Rich Travel

The public trial meeting was brought forward to coincide with the awarding ceremony, which was a good publicity opportunity.

The award ceremony is for the subsequent military restructuring.

During this time, Oceana has been very busy, Lambert has been very busy, and Gu Hang has also been very busy.

Not to mention that although those two people are officials in charge of one aspect, the actual highest authority still lies with Gu Hang. As long as the scope is slightly larger, or if cross-department coordination is required, requests for help must go through Gu Hang.

Turnover is done here. Decisions on major matters also have to go through Gu Hang.

There are already quite a few of these things.

What's more, Gu Hang took charge of military issues personally.

Internal affairs are important, but military affairs are equally important.

Gu Hang decided to implement a military rank system and organize the team according to the empire's regular planetary defense force standards.

Officers are divided into ten levels: general, colonel, and lieutenant. There is currently no fourth-level general; there is third-level colonel, with the highest being a colonel; and third-level lieutenant, with the highest being captain.

Yan Fangxu jumped three ranks in a row and became the highest-ranking military officer under Gu Hang. He will assume the rank of colonel; followed by Thaddeus, who will take charge of the military and administrative department with the rank of lieutenant colonel.

The entire army will also be reorganized into two large organizations.

First, it is to expand into a heavy-armored composite brigade with the infantry regiment that Gu Hang brought from Wei Xingcheng as the core. This brigade will be equipped with five composite battalions, an artillery battalion, an engineer battalion, and an air defense battalion.

A logistics battalion, with a total of nine battalions; the brigade headquarters and directly under the brigade include the staff headquarters, command headquarters, field medical department, political department, guard company, engineer company, communications company, brigade reconnaissance company, and an army aviation squadron.

Not to mention other things, the five combined battalions are based on the current five infantry battalions as the core expansion. Each battalion will be organized into 1 artillery company, 1 armor company, 2 motorized infantry companies, 2

An armored infantry company, a support company, a total of seven companies. The battalion also includes a reconnaissance platoon, communications platoon, and guard team.

Such a main force combined battalion has a total strength of more than 800 people. It needs 40 Iron Bull trucks, 30 Ranger motorcycles, 24 Ramblers, armored command vehicles, and armored communication vehicles, as well as 155 howitzers.

12 doors, 12 tanks...

Just five such combined battalions would have a total strength of 4,100 men, not counting heavy equipment, let alone light equipment.

At the stage of combining the brigade, the other four battalions, plus the brigade headquarters, will have a scale of more than 7,000 people.

From the current 1,500 people who were still dissatisfied with losing a lot of their numbers due to fighting, to have the number of 7,000 people... Obviously, Gu Hang has to absorb a lot of blood from the former alliance legion.

At the same time, what is more important is the production of weapons and equipment, which must keep up.

As for the tanks, we used the 60 still mobile tanks left over from the former Alliance Army. They were barely enough. Although they were relatively backward, we had no choice.

As for other equipment production, Gu Hang will fly back to Weixing City soon to find Wu Jiarong to solve the problem.

For other things, it’s easy to say that the troop transport trucks and fast motorcycles required by the motorized infantry can only be used by the ‘Iron Bull’ and ‘Ranger’.

However, the heavy artillery used by the artillery was not enough captured from the Alliance Corps. Gu Hang had to ask Wu Jiarong how the self-developed 155 howitzer was doing.

On the other hand, Gu Hang had to use the few things extracted from this technology.

For the large-scale production of the 'Walker' series of armored vehicles, Gu Hang plans to first develop the production line of the 'Rambler' infantry fighting vehicle. This is in high demand and has a great effect.

In this wasteland world with underdeveloped technology, the power of the 'Rambler' is probably more powerful and more reliable than the locally produced tanks.

As for the "Listener" communication armored vehicle, "Defender" air defense vehicle, and "Navigator" command armored vehicle that are in relatively low demand, just use the finished black box to produce them directly, and there is no rush to launch the production line.

After Gu Hang came up with the idea of ​​this heavy-duty synthetic brigade, both Yan Fangxu and Thaddeus were a little stunned.

The number of people is not bad, but the equipment requirements... are too luxurious.

Land... luxury travel?

If such a heavy-duty synthetic brigade was actually created, wouldn't it just be walking sideways in the wasteland?

Even if Yan Fangxu looked at it from the perspective of an imperial officer, such a unit would be considered a relatively luxurious configuration among many ordinary Astra Militarum legions - replacing the tanks with high-level Astra Militarum troops.

In terms of tanks.

In fact, the Astra Militarum rarely organizes elite combined brigades in this way. In many cases, the battlefields faced by the Astra Militarum are larger and broader, and it is common for hundreds of thousands or millions of troops to be invested. More

Large-scale division structures are more commonly used. Dozens or even hundreds of divisions form a group army to deal with a certain aspect of war; multiple group armies form an army group to deal with a continental war...

The Astra Militarum is called the 'Imperial Hammer', and that's not nonsense. It must be like a hammer, smashing the enemy into pieces with unrivaled power.

But this does not mean that the Astra Militarum does not need knives if they have hammers. Some elite combined brigade troops will use them as assault knives.

This combined brigade organized by the Governor is a bit interesting.

If this force is reorganized and all the equipment is in place, and if there is a way to deliver it to the starship Quintet in the sky, it is estimated that the troops on the starship will also have to drink a big pot. If they are not prepared enough, they will be stabbed in one breath.

It is not impossible to see Brigadier General Yelicia's face.

There are indeed 100,000 people on the starship, but most of them are staff and slave workers. The armed force may only be 20,000 to 30,000 people, and they lack heavy equipment.

In addition to this main force of the combined brigade, what is left to be organized is a conventional infantry division, consisting of three infantry regiments, each with an artillery battalion. It sounds like a division, but with the division headquarters, the total

There are only seven or eight thousand men, which is about the same strength as the main combined brigade, but the equipment is much more expensive.

Yan Fangxu doesn't like this unit very much. Even if the training of the unit is good, but the equipment is far from good, he is just an ordinary "line filler" in the Astra Militarum.

Of course, it's not bad in a wasteland environment.

With these two armies, a total of about 15,000 people will be deployed. This is Gu Hang's current idea.

With a scale of one million people, raising a well-equipped army of more than 10,000 people should not be a big problem for the time being.

And if he wants to raise so many troops, it will certainly be useful.

Internal cultivation of internal strength is very important. The production potential of millions of people must be tapped as much as possible; but outward expansion cannot be stopped.

Gu Hang has not forgotten that he only has two years. It has been more than two months now. It is not impossible to rely on one million people to pay taxes and fully explode productivity, but it has locked him up.

All resources must serve this purpose.

That definitely won't work.

He has to bring more territory and more people into his order.

The reason why he left Fuxing City and started a new one was to have a seed; now, this seed has taken root and sprouted in Fuxing City. This city will also become a fulcrum, and he will use it to move the entire planet.

In fact, the expansion operations that should be carried out are already being prepared before all the logistical equipment is in place.
