The common people of the Gyeonggi region have obviously not seen this kind of large-scale march for many years, and there is no fear here, when the Han army established power, all the common people have the consciousness of war, and now the Han Dynasty has even cut down the Tartar emperor, so of course this war is endless, and there is no need for anyone to carry out propaganda and education at all.

In fact, when the Han army marched into the process, the people showed more surprise, the reason here is very simple, because in terms of the current style of the Han army's military uniform, it is indeed a bit novel in the eyes of the Orientals, but it is still very beautiful from an aesthetic point of view, and so thousands of people walking neatly and neatly are indeed very ornamental, so many ordinary people run to both sides of the official road to watch.

In this case, Lin Feng obviously has reason to be proud, because since the Ming and Qing dynasties, the army has always been a kind of vicious gang in the minds of the broad masses of the people, and at this moment, they can have the courage to stand on the side of the road and parade, of course, because the Han army has an excellent image, which shows that Lin Feng has done quite successfully in the military and political construction of the army.

This kind of army is the army that Lin Feng dreams of, so he can be said to have tried all means, in fact, when he first formed this army, he has been thinking about how to form a well-disciplined army that can fight well? - Of course, the most difficult point here is strict discipline, for which many Chinese literati are intentionally or unintentionally misleading the masses, many articles in the description of excellent armies always habitually add "strict discipline" after "can fight well", as if as long as you can fight a war, you must be well disciplined, in fact, these two issues are not compatible at all, being able to fight a war and not harassing the common people are two different things, and from the perspective of historical facts, this view is just the opposite, most of the armies that can fight are generally very poorly disciplined, the so-called" That's probably what the two-headed spiky force means.

So in order to solve this problem, Lin Feng can be described as painstaking, first of all, he must solve the problem of the class composition of the army, in terms of historical experience and the current actual situation, Lin Feng chose to still be a stable path, that is to say, to allow yeoman farmers to join the army, or to turn soldiers into yeoman peasants, from the social status quo of this era, only this class is the most stable, and the easiest to control, and from all angles, they are more suitable to be professional soldiers than the so-called "poor hired peasants" - Of course, this is not to say that those displaced people or proletarians are not brave in fighting, but here it means that this group of people is not easy to control, the spirit of resistance is too strong, the violent tendency is too serious, and there is also a general psychology of revenge against society. So it's a long-term investment, and it's not economical.

But the homesteaders are different, this group of people live a relatively stable life, generally have a stable family, and the social status is also passable, so when these people are conscripted into the army, it is easy to use discipline - to put it simply, the current military punishment regulations of the Han army are the Zhulian system, that is to say, if these soldiers commit crimes in the army, in addition to their own bad luck, his real estate and fields in his hometown will also be confiscated, and what is even more terrible is that their parents, wives and children will also be cruelly punished, His family would have degenerated from a stable social group to a homeless person because of his own reasons, and in addition to this, there were also spiritual punishments such as insulting ancestral graves, removing names from the family tree, and tearing off spiritual positions from clan ancestral halls - this punishment is undoubtedly quite inhumane, but it is also quite effective, because in today's Chinese society, if such a situation happens, then the family basically has no other way but to commit suicide, and it is difficult to gain local sympathy for such unfortunate events. In the traditional Chinese concept, it is estimated that it is difficult for future generations to beg for food because of their own sins and ancestors, which is really a more serious crime than a widow stealing people.

And such regulations have a relatively limited effect on the homeless, because these homeless people basically have nothing to worry about, basically one person is fed and the whole family is not hungry, the so-called since they dare to rebel, it doesn't matter about the ancestral grave, generally this kind of soldier is very easy to run out to rob the house, and then enjoy life with a big bowl of wine and meat, in short, they can live happily day by day, and at the same time they are not afraid of military sanctions, and they are determined to die, and what is even more terrifying is that this kind of person has no sense of belonging, whoever gives milk is a mother, If it is really very difficult to manage the army strictly, maybe today it will be ruthless, and tomorrow Lao Tzu will surrender to the enemy - this is basically a practical experience, and the army raised at the end of the Ming Dynasty was like this, and the officers could not rectify military discipline at all, not because they did not have military law, but they did not dare to exercise military law at all.

Of course, in addition to the soldier component and cruel military discipline, there are many things that need to be done, because man is a kind of intelligent and thoughtful thing, not a machine, and with a system, lubricants are needed to operate and coordinate. In addition to carrying out a brainwashing campaign, desperately improving the treatment of soldiers, raising the social status of soldiers, and giving preferential treatment to military dependents, the Han military government also worked many details. For example, military uniforms.

The reform of the military uniforms of the Han army does have some wonderful little stories. From the founding of the army to the present, the military uniforms issued by the Han army can be described as constantly turbulent, because Lin Dashuai insisted on going his own way, the military uniforms of the Han army finally changed from the traditional appearance to the current appearance, and now the military uniforms of the Han army are a bit unique in Lin Feng's view, the whole style is a combination of Western standard military uniforms and traditional military uniforms, and the neckline maintains the appearance of the top neck of the Zhongshan suit, but the placket has come to a combination of earth and foreign culture, and has become an authentic partial Han style, and the concept of buttons proposed by Lin Feng has been maintained. However, it is very strange here to take a diagonal line according to the bias, extending diagonally from the neck to a row of buttons under the ribs, which is really weird, but the weird is weird, and from the appearance, it is still very beautiful.

The reform of military uniforms has caused some small controversies, but this time the old school is not those Confucians, but the generals of the Han army, in the eyes of the generals, these bells and whistles are very ridiculous, so many people say behind their backs that the handsome way is a bit "plaything", but Lin Feng, who had been prepared, quickly cited the classics to argue them, in fact, this era because of the impact of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, many traditions have been destroyed, if you really want to carry out any reform, there is actually little resistance - try to think about it, Back then, the Qing Dynasty asked you to shave your head and change your clothes, and it was no problem to lie down and call yourself a slave, but now you can't change any military uniform? And there is also a popular classical basis here: Didn't Sima Taishi Gong say it? "Hufu cavalry shooting" is an authentic road to strengthen the army, its historical value is really classic, so when this set of theories thrown out, many readers have also expressed their agreement, because the fiasco of the Han armed forces in the Ming Dynasty is really unforgettable, the vast majority of Han people in this era think that their army must have a big problem, so to solve this problem naturally to carry out a major reform, from this point of view, "Hufu cavalry shooting" is of course in line with the ancestral family law and in line with the actual requirements of the choice.

So after the victory in public opinion, Lin Dashuai struck while the iron was hot, and greatly increased military spending on military uniform investment, here in addition to the fabric, workmanship on the extremely high-grade, in the button is even more up to the artistic level - this kind of button deducts the requirements for all-metal production, but also requires craftsmen to polish like a work of art, each must be crystal shining, and then plated with anti-rust varnish, so when the military uniform is produced in large quantities, even the government's senior civil officials are envious very, it can be imagined, What did those ordinary officers and soldiers look like when they received their uniforms, it can be said that ninety-nine percent of the soldiers in the Han army had never worn such clothes in their lives, and the subsequent ceremonies for awarding titles and uniforms were very grand, with drums and music sounding, the brigade lined up in a neat formation, and the officers stepped forward one by one and swore loudly that they would always be loyal to Marshal Lin Feng, and then knelt down to accept the rank and uniform, and so on, until every soldier.

Of course, this is only half of the work - in Lin Feng's expectation, when the army changed its uniform, this extremely dazzling military uniform immediately caused a sensation in the whole society, so that in the capital, Zhili some big cities hung a fashion trend, in the end, for aesthetics human beings still have commonality, this Beijing and Parisians have no difference, so later many children of large families and sons and sons out of envy, They paid a lot of money to buy the uniforms of the Han army or asked the tailor to sew the same style, and then wear them on the body to show off their might, but this kind of glorious days only lasted a few days, under the personal control of Lin Feng, the military police of the Han army cracked down on these "shoddy and fake soldiers", in addition to the crime of "impersonating soldiers" in addition to a large amount of money, at the same time issued a strict order: in addition to the loyal and fearless Han soldiers, any other idle people, including civilian officials of the government, are not eligible to wear the sacred Han military uniforms.

It is conceivable that this drastic change in social status really moved all the officers and soldiers of the Han Army to tears, and at the same time produced a very strong sense of honor for soldiers, and this sense of honor became deeper and deeper when they went out on weekdays - when those people envied the military uniform more and more strongly after the crackdown, the more unacceptable the temptation was greater, so when the soldiers went to the street, they would always accept the attention of jealousy, and in this case, every soldier would inevitably be a little complacent and proud.

Of course, in the huge psychological project of consolidating the sense of honor of soldiers, the military uniform system is only one of the small components, which of course includes many aspects, of which the treatment is of course the most critical aspect, after Lin Feng reformed the dining system, the General Staff formulated a new rationing plan according to the meaning of the marshal, in this plan, the daily food of the Han soldiers has been greatly improved, three meals a day for a total of two and a half catties, converted into steamed buns, that is, forty taels of steamed buns (one catty and sixteen taels), Although there is not much meat, there is absolutely no problem with a full meal, in addition to a series of salary systems according to military ranks, but this set of military salaries has been lowered compared with the previous high military salaries, because at this moment the Han army no longer needs that kind of high salary system to win people's hearts, so it no longer does a one-size-fits-all system, but adopts a more humane hierarchy, where new soldiers and veterans, soldiers and officers, soldiers with military merits and people without military merits have adopted differential treatment.

In fact, with Lin Feng's desperate efforts to build the army, now the military has become the preferred occupation of young people in the territory of the Han army, although this profession is very risky, but the profits in it are too big, it is irresistible - after the last large number of landlords in the sea, the Han army confiscated a large number of arable land, and now these arable land has been given to the soldiers by Lin Feng under various pretexts, it can be said that the vast majority of soldiers in the Han army are the propertied class, and in addition, the monthly fixed income of the Han army is also considerable, Although they can't make a fortune, they are out-and-out iron rice bowls, carefree and guaranteed in drought and flood, and this is completely reflected from the arrogant faces of military families.

So under this general trend, the barracks of the various units of the Han army are always surrounded by some young people who want to join the army, and the recruiting officers who have run into walls everywhere are now hot, and have become the first oil and water yamen recognized in the army, during which all kinds of corruption have occurred repeatedly, many people and even some landlords and wealthy children have sharpened their heads and squeezed into the army, for which they do not hesitate to bribe the officers in charge, and they do everything with money and beauty, but these people generally have a small success rate, because since the establishment of the number system, The Han army has been strictly controlled by the establishment, and in terms of the current economic situation, the Han military regime is already a little annoyed that it maintains the current army of more than 50,000 people, so there is no plan to expand the number for the time being, which undoubtedly greatly disappoints those young people who are eager to "serve the country with loyalty".

Interestingly, when this situation was discovered by the General Staff, the Han army quickly added a military law to deprive military status, and the first batch of unlucky people who led this military law was the guy who took the lead in asking for a holiday for spring ploughing, although they made some achievements in that campaign, such as the Han army has now officially promulgated a "double seven" system, that is, in non-war situations, soldiers and officers can enjoy seven days of "agricultural leave" and seven days of "Spring Festival vacation" every year, But at first, those who opposed the commander of the military movement suffered from Lin Dashuai's retaliation, the leader of them was beheaded for public display, and the rest were deprived of military status and driven out of the barracks - these guys quickly found out what they had lost after returning to their hometowns, so they ended up making a few jokes, they repeatedly organized to petition the Yamen of the General Staff, and also stopped the officials on the main road in the capital to kneel down and petition, wept bitterly, and cried and demanded that Lin Dashuai be particularly generous in the merits of attacking Tianjin and capturing Zhili. Sinners are allowed to return to the barracks to perform meritorious service.

Therefore, the Han army troops marching on the official road were full of spirit, and the whole army exuded an unusually arrogant taste, and the guards who were scouting and guarding on both sides were even more staring at the sky, and whenever the young people in those villages were envious of the gaze, these guys seemed to be peacocks in estrus one by one, shouting the password triumphantly, and posing with disdain full of superiority.

The supreme leader traveled, and the various magistrates along the way of course trembled and did not dare to slack off, and each post station along the way was cleaned clean and spotless, and the official roads near the city were cushioned with soil and sprinkled with water and pierced archways, but later they found that they had done useless work, because the Han army troops and Lin Dashuai himself did not enter the city at all, but camped in the field on the spot - in order to prevent the army from corrupting and corrupting military discipline in the city, Lin Feng had already issued an order, except for the necessary fortress garrison, Other field troops are not allowed to enter the city if they have nothing to do, and now is the time for the marshal himself to play an exemplary role.

In the past few days, Lin Feng has taken advantage of this rare opportunity to visit the grassroots level repeatedly, during which in order to win people's hearts, of course, he and the soldiers eat a pot of steamed buns and live in a tent together. The simplicity of life here has left a deep impression on many people, and I believe that many years later, there should be a lot of touching articles such as "Lin Dashuai's Rice Bowl" or "Dashuai's Sheets".

After marching for a few days, the troops entered Wang Dahai's defense area, at this time Wang Dahai had already led the officers in the army to meet them on the border, but when they saw this mighty scene, they were surprised, because according to the order of the General Staff, the marshal came to negotiate with the Liaodong Righteous Army this time, and his troops undertook the task of cooperation and protection during this period, but as far as the current situation is concerned, the marshal has more than 7,000 troops at hand, in addition to a large number of elite cavalry, the guards behind are actually dragging a lot of cannons, And this strength alone may have surpassed Wang Dahai's troops - Wang Dahai and a group of officers who reacted couldn't help but look at each other, they were stationed in Liaodong and knew the real situation at the moment, there were still nearly two million displaced people over there who were unstable, and the work of reclamation and resettlement was in ruins, and it would be a bit crazy if the war started at this time.

Of course, they will not ask the General Staff why they did not report these situations, and they absolutely do not dare to rashly inquire about the military strength of the commander. Lin Dashuai is the supreme leader, and how many soldiers he likes to bring is not something that he Wang Dahai can ask.
