"I'm late, please forgive me."

"Everyone worked hard today!"

"Don't worry about the cost of soup and medicine, just rest assured to recuperate, no matter whether the Zhang family or I are pragmatic, we will not be disadvantaged."

"Don't get up, don't get up, everyone is hurting for me, I feel guilty......"

"Well, well, I will definitely convey your thoughts to my uncle and ask him to think about the arrangement."

……

It won't take much time to appease, but judging from the effect of appeasement, if this group of Zhang family guards is a soldier under Gao Pragmatic, then Gao Pragmatic will definitely be able to mix a good name of "loving soldiers like sons".

But it is precisely because the guards of the Zhang family are not under Gao Pragmatic, so after such a deed, everyone's good impression of Gao Pragmatic, the young master, really went up, and only suffered Zhang Siwei who was in Sijiu City - he didn't know how many rewards and placement fees Gao Pragmatic promised as a young master.

Of course, if Zhang Siwei can be one-tenth more generous to his subordinates, he probably won't be so distressed.

Since the two sides are together, it is of course necessary to share the spoils, but fortunately, the horse thieves were seriously killed and injured before, and many horses were left nearby, and now they have already been collected and become the mounts of Gao Shishi's party.

Liu Xian and their line also had horses before, but before the ambush, the horses were tied far away in a forest, and now the two sides gathered the horses and found that more than 50 people actually had more than 70 horses, Gao Pragmatic was quite happy about this.

In fact, Liu Xian's side played a greater role in this battle, but he now has a high level of pragmatism, so he simply said that he did not bring too many people to the north this time, and the horses were enough, so he didn't want this "capture".

But although Gao Pragmatic knew that horses were a good thing in these years, he refused to take advantage of others in vain, and finally made up for the loss of horses on both sides - this was actually Gao Pragmatic's earnings, because Liu Xian and they didn't lose horses at all. But Liu Xian still felt that Gao was pragmatic, although he was young, he was magnificent. While observing Gao Pragmatic personally handling various aftermath matters, he quietly looked at Liu Ling, not knowing what was going on in his heart.

In addition to the horses on Liu Xian's side, in addition to arranging to carry the corpse of the deceased, there is also a part of the property that is used to carry the corpse of the horse thief. Gao Pragmatic also got some of the surplus wealth of the ringing horse, he looked at it slightly, it was not too little, except for some things that were not very good for direct valuation found on the individual ringing horse thieves, just the copper coins and broken silver, the estimated value was two or three hundred taels.

At that time, this was not a small amount.

Liu Xian's side didn't care about how to distribute the money, he calmly announced that he would divide the money into two equal parts, one of which was given to the wounded alone, and the other was divided equally among all the guards - equivalent to the wounded being able to take it twice.

It stands to reason that this distribution method is rather crude, because the uninjured guards are not necessarily not fighting hard, after all, it is also likely that they are better at martial arts.

However, Gao Pragmatic did not follow this line of thinking to reward him, and his way of rewarding was obviously biased towards the later generations' "Rongli Collective X and other merits".

Gao Pragmatic knows that there is Qi Jiguang in the Ming Dynasty at the moment, and this prince may be the first person in China to train troops so far. Gao Pragmatic admired Qi Jiguang's training ability very much, so in this discussion, he actually followed Qi Jiguang's line of thought.

This line of thinking boils down to two points: one is to emphasize collectivity, and the other is to distinguish rewards and punishments.

Some people in later generations talked about Qi Jiguang, but they only knew that they blindly emphasized the invincibility of the Mandarin Duck Array, but they did not pay much attention to other more basic aspects. In fact, Qi Jiguang has many key ideas that are very important in military training. Among them is the article that has always emphasized collectivity. For example, in "Ji Xiao's New Book", Qi Jiguang said:

"Compete in the field, capture the thief, thousands of people in different dignified formations line up, the brave must not go first, and the cowardly cannot be behind; The cluster of guns poked, the cluster of guns poked, the knives slashed, and the indiscriminate killing returned him, but they all rushed in together, and it was difficult to change hands, how could they tolerate moving left and right?

He is very martial arts on weekdays, and if he uses it temporarily, he can also succeed; With eight points, the world is invincible; Those who have not exhausted their usual abilities and can be calm and lively.

The spear is used by a single person, such as a ring string, which is a learning technique; Advancing and retreating is to learn footwork and body method. In addition, there are so-called solo dancers, all of whom are flower methods and cannot be learned.

Dancing alone with rattan cards is inevitable, but it is necessary to learn from this. There are flashes and the like, which are also flowers.

Hooks, sickles, forks, palladium, such as turning around and jumping, are all flowers, not only useless, but also mistaken first. There are many forked palladium flower methods, shoveling endlessly, just according to the Yu Gong stick method to make the fork palladium hook sickle, there is no flower method, and it can be practical. ”

It can be seen from this that Qi Jiguang attaches great importance to the integrity of military training, because he believes that the army fights, and the integrity represents practicality.

However, when the Ming army discusses military merits, it is customary to look at the number of beheadings, so there will be some problems in many cases.

According to the tradition of the Ming army, as long as you grab the enemy's head, you can take it to receive a reward, but the drawbacks of this rule are very obvious, and it will cause quite serious consequences:

"All the heroes who are in battle, there are only a few people, every time they get the head, they often come to report their merits, and they don't want you to retreat together to repay their merits, so that the soldiers look at each other and mistakenly think that they are defeated, and everyone is gone. Besides, if a thief is a thief, dozens of people report their merits, if they behead dozens of thieves, hundreds of people should come to report, I don't know how many hundreds of people can be in this array, but they have lost their lives. ”

It is naturally very ridiculous to kill an enemy and cause our army to retreat, but in a system that only looks at the head, this kind of result can easily occur, so how to prevent the strange rout caused by killing the enemy? Qi Jiguang has his way.

"In the future, its long cards, spears, and wolf swords, where they should be the first, the number of long soldiers will never be allowed to bring the first knife, just kill first, and do not set up the head of Gu Lian. The thieves who killed them, allowed each team to cut off their heads, and each one person was allowed to be mentioned behind the battle, and after the killing was completed, there was an order to urge the inspection, and then he was allowed to leave the battle to go to the test. Whoever is the first, who has a share, and who has no point, all listen to the captain of the lead to the public from the communiqué trial. Dare to have those who repay injustice for their revenge, military law. Each head is divided into thirty taels, the first card gun is divided into twenty taels, the first soldier is divided into two taels, and the remaining soldiers are divided into one tael, although the firefighters are not in battle, the team has merit, and it is also divided into five coins; Each team's bird is also divided into two taels. ”

That is to say, in Qi Jiguang's army, not everyone has the right to harvest heads, but only short soldiers can harvest, Qi Jiguang gave a head a sky-high price of thirty taels, in order to prevent teammates from grabbing each other's heads, Qi Jiguang specially stipulates that as long as the team wins the head, the whole team will be rewarded, and most of them belong to cards, guns, and fires, so as to eliminate the situation that the main force in the team is distracted by grabbing heads. Other members will also be rewarded as long as they participate in the war, even the gang can lie down and count the money, no need to risk their lives to charge into battle, as long as they usually carry a black pot to cook, why not?

The same is true for picking up equipment treasures dropped by enemies, which are collected by one person and divided equally among teammates after the battle. If the fighter plane is delayed because of the loot, whoever is in charge will cut off his head.

Whoever dares to retreat from the battle will cut off his ears on the spot, and after retiring from the army, he will check those who have no ears, and whoever has no ears will cut off his head, and if the commander covers it, then cut off the commander. If the team serving as an ambush soldier should not go up, or should not go blindly, so that the ambush is exposed, the captain will be beheaded. If one person dies if he does not save his teammates, the head of the whole team will be cut off, but if one of the first ranks is killed, he can be exonerated and two will be rewarded.

Seeing that the other teams are surrounded but not saved, the head of the steward is beheaded. If one person dies but does not gain anything, one month's salary will be deducted from the whole armor to subsidize the families of the deceased. If the commander fights but his men flee and the commander dies in battle, all his men will be beheaded. If the bigger officials are reluctant to kill all their subordinates if they die in battle, they will deduct two months' wages to subsidize the families of the deceased.

More importantly, Qi Jiguang forbade the soldiers to make noise, not the heralds, and they were not allowed to shout when they saw the enemy or were injured by the enemy, otherwise they would be beheaded, which could avoid affecting the morale of friendly troops.

In terms of playing games in later generations, it is equivalent to Qi Jiguang's team K/D ratio must be maintained at more than 1:1, if it can't be maintained, those who should be killed will be killed, and there is no more to say.

All in all, Qi Jiguang set various rules of reward and punishment for his army, so as to ensure that everyone can fight bravely and that each team can take care of each other. In fact, these practices are constantly emphasizing the wholeness and emphasizing that the army is a whole, and the quality of any person's work will affect the success or failure of the battle.

What is the most famous quote of Nelson, the unborn British naval god? "England needs everyone to do their job!"

It can be seen that no matter ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, famous generals have the same understanding of the army, and the army must be a whole. Although Gao pragmatic wants to take the civilian line, after all, he will also reform the army in the future, so he will make some experimental moves in advance to observe the effect.

Pacify, reward, and reorganize the team, and then naturally we hit the road together and set off for the Cherry Springs Annex.

As for the "Bald Heavenly King" Cao Gan, Gao Pragmatic still handed it over to Liu Wei and others to watch, and he was still very interested in understanding that this person could maintain such a small team of ringing horses not far from Gyeonggi.
