Everyone has the obligation to serve in the military.

Zhang Chao also hopes that these young people who have been training in the military camp for three years can become the main force supporting the court after they arrive at the local area. After three years of military camp life, they will not only practice martial arts, but also educate them on culture and allow them to accept propaganda to support the court and others.

They will even teach them some professional work skills.

Designing this recruitment system is also considered for a longer-term basis.

After all, the system of government troops actually has many flaws. In the war-torn era, the system of government troops still has many advantages, but the disadvantage of the system of government troops is that in the unified era, the combat effectiveness will drop rapidly and the decline will be very powerful.

Establishing a lifelong standing army of imperial guards also has many shortcomings. For example, the recruitment system in the Song Dynasty was professional soldiers, but this army that regarded soldiers as professionals was actually easy to reduce its combat effectiveness quickly.

The most important thing for an army is the commanding officers and the backbone non-commissioned officers, so Zhang Chao chose to train officers in military academy and select non-commissioned officers among soldiers.

With a professional and elite military officer and non-commissioned officer class, the combat effectiveness of the imperial army can be maintained. The use of the consignee system of soldiers greatly reduces the cost of raising soldiers.

Replacing a group of new recruits in three years can also keep the army strong combat effectiveness and a good atmosphere.

Although this military system cannot be perfect, Zhang Chao believes that this military system can better adapt to the future Tang Dynasty.

The new military system was passed after discussion at the cabinet meeting in Guangzhou, and then received consultation from both houses of parliament and also received their support. In the end, the prince issued an edict to formally pass the new military system.

Now, the Southern Army's army has been reorganized.

Basically, it is based on this institutional structure.

The Guangzhou Military Academy has also been established, and the Qinzhou Non-commissioned Officer College, Guangzhou Naval Academy, etc. have also been established one after another.

The officers also awarded military ranks to match their military positions.

The navy in the Southern Army was also officially renamed the Datang Jianguo Navy.

The Privy Council has the Army and the Navy Department.

This is the first official expedition since the founding of the Navy.

The Army has multiple armies, and the Navy has also set up several fleets.
