From a Sima commanding 25 people to a pawn commander commanding more than 23o people, the number of subordinates has increased tenfold, and Wei Ze, as a commander, has made all kinds of psychological preparations.

In any era, the more perfect the system and discipline, the less troublesome the troops will have. The key to formulating systems and disciplines lies in the purpose of the system. Now that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is facing strong pressure, Wei Ze is more at ease. Any organization, as long as there is consensus and external pressure, can have a strong motivation.

For example, the brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society who were newly assigned to Wei Ze's subordinates, the highest-ranking commander was only the captain. Among them, the most appealing is a Wu Chang named Hu Chenghe, who is 25 or 6 years old and was born in Wuzhou Tiandihui.

Wei Ze arranged for everyone to stay, and then met with the 1o4 Heaven and Earth Brothers. At this meeting, Hu Chenghe said with tears in his eyes: "Wei Sima, I all know that the rebellion was arrested, and it was to be executed by Ling Chi. Those brothers who left also felt that they couldn't hold on here, so they fled back while no one knew that they had joined the Taiping Army. But we are all famous, and even if we run back, we can only hide! In that case, it's better to make a situation! ”

Naturally, these words do not have the pride of changing the world and the people's liberation. Wei Ze didn't think there was anything wrong with Hu Chenghe's words. The founding of New China was China's self-help on the verge of extinction. The real intellectuals of China stepped forward and united with the people in a battle of blood and fire, and finally won the victory of the revolution.

Now that the Taiping Rebellion has not reached that height ideologically, it is not easy for the rebels to be able to devote themselves to a war that tries to change their fate with a firm attitude.

Wei Ze talked with the brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society, and determined that these brothers basically had the same mind as Hu Chenghe. They have despaired of their lives and hope to rise up to overthrow this oppressive and hopeless world. And the "little heaven on earth" that the Worship of God proclaims to everyone can indeed satisfy the spiritual needs of the brothers. The Worship of God outlined at least one very clear thing, and that was the complete elimination of the Manchus. This alone has expanded the originally very limited horizons of these people, at least they know that they have joined a team that "fights the world". If they can "conquer the world" and overthrow the former oppressors, these participants can become part of the rulers.

Of course, Wei Ze will not preach any political ideas in the 21st century to these brothers, not that Wei Ze hides his personal interests or looks down on these brothers who dare to participate in the rebellion. It's just because, even if they say it, they don't understand it, and it's impossible to understand it correctly.

"Brothers, since everyone is fighting together, I naturally believe everyone. At lunchtime, I said that since everyone didn't leave, since everyone stayed in Yong'an City. What does it have to do with those brothers who say goodbye to each other? Scolding the brothers who didn't leave, isn't this forcing everyone to go! Wei Ze also said sincerely, and the brothers below were relieved when they saw Wei Ze's attitude so firm.

Seeing that he had finally stabilized the situation of the troops, Wei Ze continued: "Brothers, don't worry, those who leave have nothing to do with everyone. Rest well, everyone, and we'll send troops in a few days! ”

After appeasing the new subordinates directly under him, Wei Ze also had to contact the troops handed over to him by Feng Yunshan. This pawn is full of people, and the chief of the pawn is named Ke Gongyu, a Cantonese who followed Feng Yunshan to join the God Worship Sect. After following the Jintian Uprising of the Taiping Army, he went from Guangdong to Guangxi to join the Taiping Army.

Ke Gongyu knew that Feng Yunshan, the king of the South, valued Wei Ze, and respected Wei Ze very much during his conversation. Wei Ze naturally couldn't put up a shelf for the chief, and he agreed with Ke Gongyu to meet with the brother of another pawn the next day.

Now that Wei Ze has been promoted, Wei Ze has also been given a single room in the camp. Weeser used it as his office, and he called his five older brothers in for a meeting. After Wei Changrong saw Wei Ze, he recommended himself, "Fourth uncle, I want to be a Sima!" ”

"Changrong! You know what I'm thinking? Weser asked.

"But I don't know!" Wei Changrong replied bluntly.

Wei Ze said unceremoniously: "Look at your little bit of interest!" It's a joy to be a Sima! ”

Wei Changrong was like being slapped on the head, and his face was difficult to look at at that time. Zhang Yingchen immediately started a round, "Wei Shuchang, Changrong's ability, being a Sima is indeed Qu Cai." ”

With Zhang Yingchen's interpretation, the unhappiness in Wei Changrong's heart immediately disappeared. He smiled a little embarrassedly: "Fourth uncle, if I am directly the head of the pawn, this is not suitable." ”

Listening to Wei Changrong say so thoughtfully, Wei Ze knew that he had been thinking about the matter of the official position for a long time. I'm afraid that he still dares to promise official positions to the old brothers below, such as promising the positions of several army commanders.

Without mentioning such things, Wei Ze lowered his voice slightly, "I called everyone here, but I want to talk to my brothers." I have made up my mind that this official position is separated from the salary, and that everyone's position is only related to the salary they are allocated. How to arrange it specifically, but we have our own set. ”

"Why?" The five old brothers didn't expect Wei Ze to do this, and they didn't quite understand the current establishment of the Taiping Army, let alone the establishment that Wei Ze hoped in his heart.

Wei Ze faced the core strength of his troops and said calmly: "Everyone is their own people, so I will also explain it to my brothers." If we change the establishment from above, it will be a capital crime. So for the top, we naturally can't change the law like this. Call it however you want. But we can't do that if we fight our own wars. Therefore, our own brothers must not talk nonsense to the outside world. You remember this for me. ”

"This is natural!" Zhang Yingchen took the lead and said. Wei Changrong and the others were Wei Ze's relatives and old subordinates, but they just nodded.

"I think the key to fighting a war is to build four systems. General Staff, Teaching Corps, Officer Corps, Logistics Office. Although there are only 26 of our old brothers, the new 2oo brothers have to be gradually incorporated into our team. Rather than letting them ......get together on their own," Weeser began to explain his vision to his core personnel.

From the second day, Weser got in touch with his new brothers and began to carry out the work he had arranged.

All the brothers conducted a drill first, and they were better at discerning the direction, and their legs and feet were fast, so they were naturally assigned to the subordinates of Sima Zhang Yingchen on the march. The marching Sima led the reconnaissance troops, which were the eyes and ears of the whole army, and were responsible for communication and contact.

Those who are not bad in physical condition, but have weak combat ability, are temporarily incorporated into the troops in charge of Lin Asheng. Lin Asheng was originally a military commander, but now he was suddenly promoted to deputy commander and became the deputy of Ke Gongyu, the commander of the pawn sent by Feng Yunshan, the king of the south.

Wei Ze didn't care what Ke Gongyu would say to Feng Yunshan, the king of the south. What Feng Yunshan needed was for Wei Ze to show his combat ability, not for Wei Ze to bow down to Feng Yunshan. As long as Wei Ze did not openly overthrow the military system of the Taiping Army, how to use the existing military system was Wei Ze's authority.

Ke Gongyu is not a particularly self-asserting person, what Wei Ze does and how he orders, Ke Gongyu listens. There is no intention of competing with Weizer at all. This can greatly save Weese's mind. He let go of the reorganization of his subordinates, and the core combat unit of the whole army was composed of three core combat units of more than 270 people.

The combat units were armed only with muskets and spears, and carried only marching knapsacks and weapons when marching. You don't have to carry a lot of baggage like last time.

Wei Changrong is naturally the Sima of the first two, the Sima of the second two is Hu Chenghe, and the Sima of the third two is Zhou Shengde, who was born in the Heaven and Earth Society and was originally an ordinary soldier. Zhou Shengde was promoted by leapfrogging was quite unexpected by everyone, although he knew how to shoot and could set up a musket, but he did not have any special ability. Wei Ze's reason for promoting Zhou Shengde is relatively vague, because if this reason is said publicly, it is really a reason that cannot be convincing to the public.

The most basic training in the modern army is to report numbers, and this job that can be completed by children at the age of three or four in the 21st century is a completely new training subject in the Taiping Army. Wei Ze's goal before sending troops was to have a fairly strong marching ability, so after adjusting the internal establishment of the troops, he ordered his subordinates to report the brothers who were injured and in poor health.

Among all the Wu Commanders, only Zhou Shengde said alone, "The subordinates are the third, second and third Wu Chiefs, and two of the subordinates have broken ......their feet", just the previous sentence, Wei Ze was impressed by Zhou Shengde.

An officer who cannot understand the army digitally can only forcibly memorize the names of individual unit commanders. In the face of a myriad of numbers, the efficiency of doing so will be low and scary. Zhou Shengde's ability to be so-so can be Sima, and Wei Ze values his mode of thinking. If Zhou Shengde is competent, he can naturally be reasonably promoted, and if Zhou Shengde is not capable, at least Wei Ze can still use the method of transfer and give Zhou Shengde a chance.

In the early hours of February 16, 1852, Weese's troops were woken up from their sleep. All the troops wore their buns in the dim light. All the soldiers wore straps, and the captain brought a sackcloth hat that showed his hair, and the sackcloth hat was tied with a belt. The horses pinned a small cowhide crown to their buns. The chief and deputy chief of the pawn are the same as those of the Simas.

The uniforms of the whole army are exactly the same, but each soldier is equipped with epaulettes and armbands, and on the epaulettes and armbands that indicate the class, Wei Ze does not have to worry about violating the Taiping Heavenly ** system. According to the class list of the modern army, privates, non-commissioned officers, captains, colonels, and class badges can show the difference in the ranks of soldiers at a glance.

With the troops ready, Weezer glanced around his men in the dim moonlight. Just by the difference in the shape of his head, Weser could roughly tell that the entire queue was ready. shouted loudly at the head of the formation: "Out! Wei Ze was at the front with the whole army through the quietly open north gate of Yong'an City, and marched forward in great strides.
