Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 268

268. Chapter 267, Army Building, Angry Bear Legion

Gu Hang’s current gift points are more than 17,000 points.

Such a number of gift points can allow Gu Hang to do a lot of things.

The first thing to do is to build the army.

At present, the total strength of the Alliance’s army is about 330,000 people, with 38 brigade-level units, divided into multiple army groups, deployed in different places, and performing different tasks.

He calculated that according to the imperial tax standards, the total value of these 38 divisions, if fully staffed, is about 6 million tax coins-this is the total value of people and equipment.

According to the previous statement, Gu Hang has obtained permission to establish a Star Realm Army Legion on Angry Owl Star.

Even the organization has been approved.

Number 43.25.09.03 Legion.

This string of numbers is also very interesting. 43 is the number of the Eastern Universe; 25 is the number of the Dragon Eagle Star Region; 09 is the number of the Pegasus Star Region; 03 is the number of Angry Owl Star.

Combined together, this is the administrative number of Angry Owl Star in the Imperial Administration Department.

For another example, the home planet of humanity, the capital of the Empire, Holy Terra, is 01.01.01.01: Solar Universe, Solar Star Region, Solar Star Region, Holy Terra. The last number becomes 2, which is the Forge World Mars, which is the headquarters of the Adeptus Mechanicus, also known as Mars.

The Astra Militarum also likes to do this, and gives the newly established legion a number based on the planet from which the main recruits are from.

Of course, it would be very troublesome to call it this way, and it would be difficult to remember too many times, so it is generally only used for internal documents. Gu Hang can come up with a name and report it. Generally speaking, the Astra Militarum headquarters will not be too entangled in this matter and will allow it.

Gu Hang gave a very simple name: the Angry Bear Legion.

It is very likely that there will be duplicate names, which is normal. But it doesn’t matter if there are duplicate names, as long as the number is good, there will be no big problem. Whether it is requesting supplies or issuing a transfer order, as long as it is a formal command document, a unique number will be attached to ensure that there will be no mistakes due to language differences, duplicate names, etc.

The Star Army that Gu Hang was ordered to create required a total value of more than 2.5 million tax coins, which was the imperial tax for the Angry Owl Star for two years.

Logically speaking, the tax should be 10 million, and the other 7.5 million, according to what Gu Hang said before he came here, would be paid by the star district government.

The target army was worth 2.5 million tax coins, and the total value of the Alliance Army was more than 6 million, so Gu Hang would definitely not include all the troops in it.

Even though this Star Army would be controlled by him, the troops from officers to legion commanders could be assigned by Gu Hang and could be stationed on the Angry Owl Star for a long time, the reason was to guard against possible attacks by the green-skinned orcs and ensure the stability of the Angry Owl Star…

But despite this, we still have to be on guard. After all, this army still has to accept the unified command of the Imperial Star Army. If they are really sent to fight somewhere with a transfer order, they will go, otherwise, can they disobey orders? It

‘s not without benefits.

First of all, it’s tax deduction, and secondly… it’s still tax deduction.

However, there are different ways to deduct taxes.

After establishing this army, 2.5 million tax can be deducted on the spot. In the future, the expansion and daily maintenance of this army will not require the alliance to pay.

If the expansion is allowed, it is fine if the new army is transported from outside by the Military Affairs Department. If it is recruited from the Angry Owl Star, it can also be deducted from the tax.

Daily armament maintenance, such as equipment depreciation, ammunition replenishment, and personnel replenishment, are also paid by the Military Affairs Department and the Star Army.

Of course, it is actually impossible to transport soldiers and equipment from other distant worlds, and they still have to be provided by the Angry Owl Star. And all these things can also be deducted from taxes.

In total, the annual maintenance cost of a unit with a total price of 2.5 million tax coins is 250,000 tax coins-provided that there is no major war. If it participates in a fierce war and suffers a large number of equipment and personnel losses, the replenishment costs will be calculated separately.

From an economic point of view, planning a part of the alliance army to become the Star Army-the Angry Bear Legion is not a loss-making business in itself.

As for the extent to which the Angry Bear Corps can be commanded by Gu Hang, that is a pure extra profit.

Gu Hang planned thirteen divisions and added them to this corps.

They are the 3rd Beast Slaughter Brigade, the 11th and 12th Infantry Divisions; the 14th Infantry Division; the 26th-30th Infantry Divisions; the 31st Airborne Division; the 32nd-33rd Infantry Divisions; and the 35th Mechanized Brigade.

The total strength is 140,000, which is almost half of the strength of the Alliance Army. But in fact, there are not many key mechanized brigades, only one.

An infantry division has 12,000 people and costs only 200,000 tax coins; a fully staffed mechanized brigade has less than 9,000 people, but the cost has soared to 460,000 tax coins.

In order to gather these thirteen divisions, Gu Hang basically dismantled and merged the group army that was used to recover the northern border and the central group army that was used to sweep the three eastern provinces.

The thirteen divisions have received transfer orders, and they will assemble and station near the capital Fuxing City, waiting for the imperial tax officials to arrive and inspect them two months later.

Considering this, Gu Hang scratched his head and felt that he had to expand the army further.

After discarding the “Angry Bear Legion”, the number of troops under the Alliance Army sequence was a little insufficient.

Gu Hang had several plans next.

First, the Eastern Army Group should be established. This part of the army has ready-made manpower. It is a militia force stationed in the three eastern provinces established by Yan Fangxu after sweeping the eastern provinces. The total number of people is about 100,000.

Gu Hang plans to reorganize half of them into 39-45 divisions on the spot, using the organization of the garrison division. A division has 6,260 people, and even armored vehicles are not needed. A large number of motorcycles and iron bull trucks are enough for motorization.

The reorganization of these seven garrison divisions is expected to be completed within a month. After all, there is no need to produce and configure too many new equipment. There are a lot of ready-made stocks of artillery, trucks, and individual equipment. As for the training of the troops, Gu Hang clicked on the soldier card system and spent some grace points. One hundred people only need one point, which is not expensive.

Then, the other half will be reorganized into regular troops and five divisions will be established. The 46th and 47th divisions will be organized as mechanized brigades, and the 48th to 50th divisions will be organized as infantry divisions.

These five divisions cannot be prepared immediately. Although the troops are trained quickly, these five divisions need to produce a large amount of equipment.

Various armored vehicles, tanks, fixed heavy grenade guns as company-level firepower… At present, the inventory of the military logistics department is seriously insufficient, and even owes a lot.

Especially armored vehicles and tanks.

At present, the monthly production of the Alliance’s Lion tanks has reached 34 units; the monthly production of armored vehicles has reached 160 units.

These are the two most bottleneck equipment in the current army construction. Not to mention the newly established troops, even the old mechanized brigades, in theory, need 50 tanks per brigade to be fully staffed, and they have not been fully staffed yet. In addition to the 1st Xifeng Brigade, which has an additional tank battalion to make it full, the subsequent plan is to give priority to the 35th Brigade to be incorporated into the Angry Bear Legion.

The remaining mechanized brigades generally have only 18 tanks.

If Gu Hang wants to really create a steel torrent, he has to find a way to increase the production of tanks and armored vehicles.

And this thing is already on the way.

On the one hand, Weixing City has been working hard to expand its production capacity; on the other hand, the production lines that are constantly being built are overflowing to the surrounding provinces.

In addition to relieving the production pressure of Weixing City, it is also necessary to drive the production level of other provinces, solve employment problems, and tap the potential of human resources.

This thing has already begun.

Some heavy industry and military industry factories were also opened in those places.

For example, other areas of the Central Province took over many individual equipment manufacturing plants and the manufacturing of various engineering machines; the High Tower Province took over a vehicle parts production plant and began to set up its own automobile production plant on the spot, and the armored vehicle production line was also in place.

The Central North Province is particularly worth mentioning.

Originally, this was the province with the least population in the administrative division of the alliance. However, after the North was liberated, a considerable part of the land and population was divided into the Central North Province, and the rest was established in the North Province. Inheriting many legacies of the Polar Industrial Group, even the Polar Industrial City was assigned to the Central North Province and renamed Guangbei City. The related technical industry upgrades have been very successful in recent times.

The Central North Province can even build tanks!

This model was something Gu Hang had considered a long time ago.

First, establish the Weixingcheng Industrial Center, and then use the first rich to drive the later rich, radiating the surrounding areas. Other regions are first positioned as a supplier of consumer goods, food, and raw materials, and then gradually receive overflow production capacity.

Now, we have reached the second step.

With the continuous advancement of industrialization in all parties, the industrial capacity of the alliance will surely continue to maintain high growth for a period of time in the future – even higher growth than in the past.

If calculated according to the situation before the increase in production, these five division-brigade units belonging to the Central Army Group, especially the two mechanized brigades, can be completed in about three months.

If the expansion of production capacity is ideal, then this time is likely to be shortened to within two months.

In addition to the problems that need to be solved in weapons and equipment, the training of these troops is also the training of soldiers.

The militia forces currently established in the eastern provinces are not formally organized and have not been trained with grace points.

The two armies have a total of about 100,000 new troops; in addition to the 34th Infantry Division, 37th Mechanized Brigade, and 38th Mechanized Brigade, which were sent to Black Arrow Star in the first phase of the expeditionary force and were beaten and pulled back, they also need to be replenished. The direct personnel losses of these three divisions reached nearly 20,000. In addition to the dead, there were also many disabled people who were transported back and handled the retirement procedures.

The shortage of 20,000 personnel will also be filled in this army building.

For these three divisions, the pension for the dead and the disabled is one aspect.

On the other hand, Gu Hang also gave the three divisions commendations as promised. The collective third-class merit, all the troops under the three divisions to the company level, are allowed to affix a single sword inserted behind the shield on the flag and the unit number armband, which is a proof of honor. Some companies were also given the collective second-class merit; some combat heroes, whether alive or dead, disabled or intact, even received personal medals. The

collective medal is okay, it is just a bonus for the soldiers, mainly reflected in the honor of the troops; the personal medal is very valuable, which means that the alliance has affirmed their merits. As long as they do not commit crimes in the future, these medals can receive a small but good supplementary allowance for life.

At the same time, almost all the participants in the war quickly adjusted their military ranks upward, and a large number of personnel were promoted to officers.

These soldiers who have been promoted in rank or even transferred to officers have also been promoted in their positions. There were platoon leaders promoted to company commanders, company commanders promoted to battalion commanders, and even regimental commanders.

Even if the original troops could not accommodate so many officers, it didn’t matter. The newly built twelve divisions had a large number of officer vacancies, and they could be transferred out and filled into these troops.

In order to train these troops, Gu Hang spent 1,200 points on grace points.

This is not a large number.

As long as you don’t build an army of millions of people, the grace points spent on training troops will never be too much.

…

After planning the grace points for troop training, Gu Hang now has more than 16,000 grace points left.

Gu Hang thought about it and decided to use it to draw technology.

He could draw 10,000 levels, but there was no need.

The greatest value of the 10,000-level technology tree mainly comes from the 25% probability of producing epic technology.

But… there may be no place to digest the epic technology after it is drawn. That is a bit too high-end for the current industrial level of Angry Owl Star.

What’s more, the technology pool of 1,000 grace levels has not been drained yet. At this level, the probability of drawing a blank is 57.5%, but he can draw more times.

He first drew six times in a row.

The first shot was blank, the second shot was also blank; the third shot hit a basic level; the fourth shot hit an advanced level; the fifth shot was blank; the sixth shot was a basic level again.

The two basic levels are [HS6 Electromagnetic Gun Family] and [Artillery Modification] technology.

They are relatively ordinary things, and there is basically no major change.

Electromagnetic rifles and laser guns are highly interchangeable with each other. The power, performance, and cost of the two are almost at the same level. The main difference is that when facing different enemies, the performance of the two will be different.

Generally speaking, mature and elite Star Army troops will equip these two rifles on a large scale at the same time – the G series of live ammunition rifles will be eliminated and used by ordinary Star Army troops.

But this thing… For the Angry Owl Star, it is more of a technical reserve.

A set of laser guns or electromagnetic rifles, with a full range of individual equipment, costs 4 tax coins; while a set of G9 only costs 0.2 tax coins. There is a big difference in money.

Gu Hang can’t afford it for the time being.

But the artillery technology is very powerful. The same 155 howitzer, the current primitive manufacturing method, compared with the modified one, has a very different range and power.

Especially in terms of range, it can be pulled to 40 kilometers, doubling.

At the same time, for some small-scale artillery, such as 88 howitzers and 60 mortars, the power, range and stability will be strengthened.

This is very good, and it is a real strengthening for the alliance army.

As for the advanced technology, it makes Gu Hang even happier.
