The Dothraki seemed to be confused by the number above ten and the "complicated" management system.
Danny frowned. Drogo's forty thousand howling warriors moved in kars, and kars were the smallest group under the Khalasar, led by Kasko. He only needed to manage a dozen or so kars.
In other words, the Dothraki only had three military ranks: kars, kars, and howling warriors … In fact, kars and kars were of the same rank, and kars and howling warriors were of the same rank.
Kars were the most powerful kars, and kars were the most powerful warriors. There was only a difference of two ranks between the three.
The centaurs were very primitive, so primitive that they almost achieved true democracy.
But she did not want this kind of democracy. If the Dothraki were more feudal, Khaleesi would not have ended so badly.
Well, she could at least be a regent and empress dowager.
Danny's purpose of reorganizing the khalasar was to let the khalasar form a hierarchical system. With a hierarchical system, they could quickly transition to a feudal and centralized society. Because feudal systems had existed in other races for thousands of years, they only needed to learn and adapt, not innovate.
Simply put, this world had enough productivity to develop feudal systems.
Danny's minimum requirement for the Dothraki was to establish a "Golden Family" with her blood as the main bloodline.
Before Genghis Khan appeared, anyone could be called "Khan" on the steppe (which was the kars of centaurs). It did not matter about bloodline, it only depended on one's bravery and power. At that time, the Mongols did not even have a complete system of bloodline and surname inheritance.
It was almost exactly the same as the Ma Minyi now.
But after Genghis Khan unified the north and established the Mongol Empire, only the "Bori" could be called "Khan".
If you were not a Bori, you had to marry a woman from the Bori family as your wife, and your son would still have the blood of the Bori family.
These Bori had a loud and great name: the Golden Family.
Danny did not think so far about whether she could dominate the world.
But with three dragons, if she could not create her own Golden Family, it would be a waste of such good resources and opportunities.
The Dothraki, who were still a mass of scattered sand, was a gift from the heavens.
The Gold Family only had one chance.
Originally, Danny was a little naive, or perhaps it was an obsession like Murong Fu. She had always wanted to return to the Westeros and become a queen.
She was tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Westeros!
Moreover, the nobles there were all … Hmm, full points for palace intrigue, full points for martial arts, full points for authority and ambition, full points for brutality, full points for loyalty … Uh, negative, all of them were ingrates.
That's right, the Hostile Environment Value was also maxed out. Every once in a while, deviant ghosts would come out to destroy the world.
Danny wouldn't want that shabby place even if it was given to her for free.
Therefore, no matter how difficult it was, the Dothraki reforms could not be stopped.
"Ah Ge, how many is five tens?" She asked her Blood Alliance Guard.
Ge thought for a while and replied, "Is it fifty?"
Danny nodded and asked, "What's the sum of five fifties?"
This time, he spent even more time. With a bitter face, he counted with his fingers for a while before he said uncertainly, "250?"
"That's right!" Danny spread her hands to encourage him.
"But didn't you say there are still captains and commanders? How many knights are there if we take them out? "he asked.
"Why should we take them out? If you are the commander, the other 249 knights are all warriors under your command, "Danny told him.
"But …" Ge looked conflicted. "The captain is also a commander's warrior? Isn't the captain Kou? Kou works for Khal, but it doesn't count … "
Ge's words were clumsy, and he couldn't express what he was thinking perfectly in words. He was so excited that he couldn't even form a complete sentence.
But Danny understood his problem.
It was still the old saying that the Ma Min were not used to a multi-level hierarchy.
"This is a new rule. Everyone will get used to it slowly." She could only use her authority to force them to adapt.
Chora understood Danny's thoughts and helped to plan. "Khaleesi, don't use words like 'squad' and 'brigade'. The Ma Min have their own division of teams."
"Brigade" and "squad" were the words Danny translated from the common language into Dothraki. Chora could understand it, but it was the first time Chora and the others had heard it.
"Is there?" Danny looked puzzled. "Why don't I know? What is it? "
"Do you know 'Sakado' and 'Goldhu'?" Chora said two Dothraki words.
"'Sakado' is the hunting team, and 'Goldhu' is the banner," Danny muttered and looked at the knights in confusion. "This is the division of teams?"
Chora smiled and said, "The tradition of the Ma Min is that the hunting team is usually made up of ten people. If there are too few people, they can't deal with a beast like a lion. If there are too many people, there won't be enough prey to share. Ten is just right.
In fact, in Westeros, when we nobles go out to hunt, we gather in a large group before entering the forest. When we enter the hunting ground, everyone moves separately. There are also about ten people in a squad. "
"I see," Danny said thoughtfully.
Still not down to earth enough. In the future, I need to know more about the people, she thought to herself.
"As for Goldhu … Khaleesi, you know that every time the Khalasar goes out, there are scouts scattered in all directions?" Chora asked again.
Danny nodded. Her Kars had also acted as scouts for Drogo, and it seemed that every Kars took turns to do this task.
The furthest a scout could reach was a day or two ahead of the Khalasar. It was the most tiring and dangerous job. No one could persist in doing this for a long time.
"According to the size of the Khalasar's team, the number of scouts sent out is different. There are about a hundred people in a group, and the people in the same group hold the same banner.
If two Khalasars meet, they don't fight immediately. They judge the strength of the other party by the number of banners, so as to avoid a pyrrhic victory.
So, you can see that Drogo's Khalasar has many kinds of banners.
Similarly, they call a team of a hundred scouts Goldhu. " Chora explained to Danny in detail.
Danny suddenly asked, "Could it be that someone is deliberately using false banners to deceive the other party? For example, ten people using the same banner. Or, they are deliberately sending more scouts to make the other party think that they have more people. "
"Uh …" Chora was stunned. "This is not in line with the horse people's tradition!"
"No one would do that," Aggo and the others agreed.
Chora thought carefully and said seriously, "Khaleesi, look at the camp around us. The traces of life are too obvious.
Wherever the Khalasar moves, there are traces of people and animals living. The most obvious is the ashes of the bonfire. Because everyone has to eat, they can roughly estimate the number of people in your Khalasar through the number of stoves.
You may be able to deceive the other party by using scouts, but when he finds out that the number of bonfires you lived in is wrong, the Khalasar who was angered by the deception will immediately turn around. Then … "
"Then you must not know that the stoves used to eat can be faked, right? For example, I have fewer people, but I purposely burn more bonfires to scare the other party.
Another example, I have more people, but I purposely build fewer stoves, waiting for the angry Khalasar who thinks that he has been deceived to chase after me. I can calmly ambush him, "Danny said with a sense of superiority.
"Uh …" Not only did Chora and the other simple horse people's almond eyes widen, even Sir Chora who thought that he had received many years of advanced knight education opened his mouth wide and was dumbfounded.
Seven levels of hell, you can do that? But, it seems that in theory … it is really possible.
Chora looked at his' innocent 'little princess strangely. Is she a natural military genius?
But, it feels a little dirty, it doesn't conform to the spirit of a knight at all.
Sigh, it seems that she who lacked the education of Westeros nobility since young has been led astray by the cunning merchants.
(Ps: Danny grew up in the Nine Great Trade City-States. Westeros look down on merchants of the city-states who value profits more than justice.
To be fair, although Westeros are also keen on the game of power, they have more integrity than the merchants across the strait. In other words, Westeros still have a few good people, but the Nine Great Federations are mostly scoundrels.)
"Khaleesi, although the Dothraki Sea is huge, you have deceived the first Khalasar. The others will soon know about this matter," Kui Luo reacted and said.
There are still many Thirty-Six Stratagems, using all of them once … Even if the Dothraki Sea is vast and boundless, there probably won't be many Khalasars left.
"That's enough," Danny waved her hand and made the final decision. "The ten-man team is called Niu Lu, the hundred-man team is called Gushan."
Yes, if Sakado and Gole were replaced with words that the people of the Celestial Empire could easily understand, it would be Niu Lu and Gushan.
Clearly, they wanted to build the Mongol Empire, but they had carelessly resurrected the Qing Dynasty in this fantasy world.
Alright, let's not talk about other things. In the early days of the Qing Dynasty, the military and political establishment system were still relatively dynamic. Moreover, the situation Danny was facing now was more like Nurhaci's than Genghis Khan's.
Nurhaci relied on thirteen sets of armor to make a fortune. Danny was slightly better than him. She had three dragons as a guarantee … But that was only a guarantee. In this fantasy world, dragons did not mean invincibility.
"From now on, all the flags will be changed to a uniform black flag, representing the black dragon in my arms. Women cannot be khal, so I will recognize myself as the Banner Master. All the soldiers and servants who serve me will be Bannermen. "
Currently, there were only so many soldiers, so it was impossible for the Eight Bannermen to think about. Let's first set up the system and slowly replenish the personnel.
The few of them discussed in the tent for two to three hours. After the system was confirmed by Danny, they started to implement it immediately.
First, they separated the soldiers and the people. Including the elderly and the half-grown children, Danny finally gathered enough people to form a Gushan. She recognized herself as the Banner Master and received a Niu Lu. There were nine Niu Lu left. Excluding Aghora and the other five, there were four left.
Just as Danny was reorganizing the old, weak, women and children's household registration, the centaurs on the other side of the open space became noisy. A few of them even pulled out their scimitars.
Danny hurried over and let her Niu Lu separate the troublemakers.
She rode on the little silver horse and looked down at the red-faced Dothraki warriors below. "What's going on?" she asked.
"Khaleesi, I'm stronger. Let me kill that bastard," a centaur said loudly.
The centaur he pointed at with his scimitar also shouted, "Kill me? Don't stop me. I'm going to peel off his skin. "
Both of them were old members of Danny's Kars. They had protected her together for more than a year. At this moment, they turned hostile. It was very Dothraki.
Chora explained, "They want to compete for the position of the leader of the Niu Lu. But we only have so few people left. We can't afford to waste them."
