Zhao Yu has long considered the military merit system, and issued temporary regulations when the Qiongzhou army began to take shape, but he was not familiar with the place when he was "newcomer", and his understanding of war in his previous life was too one-sided, so he still respected the first-level system, hoping to stimulate the people to do the same, just like the Qin people heard the war, and they were in vain, committing white blades, and making charcoals', and all the soldiers were 'left to the head and the right to be captured'. However, limited by the situation and conditions, many of the contents are still based on old examples, and still adhere to the old concept that there must be a brave man under the reward, deviating from his original intention.

Later, with the consolidation of Zhao Yu's position, the wealth of military experience and the large-scale application of firearms, he realized that the reward system was no longer suitable for the current situation, so he also revised the relevant system. However, at that time, on the basis of adhering to strict military discipline, more on improving the treatment and humanistic care of the army, the first-level system was still in use, and in order to increase the sense of honor, he also linked the number of enemies destroyed with honor and marked it on the military flags of various departments.

Ten years after Taoguang Yanghui, Zhao Hao launched the battle to recover Jiangnan, which is also the full application of firearms in the war, while achieving victory, the disadvantages of the first class system in the reward system also began to appear, such as the corpse was blown up and could not be identified, and the corpse was washed away by the current in the water battle or sank to the bottom of the sea with the ship, which would lead to the failure of the head to be harvested, and also caused the dissatisfaction of the officers and soldiers who were in a subordinate position and did not directly participate in the front-line battle.

However, due to the end of the war, he was busy consolidating the newly acquired land, rebuilding the defense line, and expanding the army on a large scale, and Zhao Yu, who was entangled in everything, had no time to take care of it. After the war, a large number of officers and soldiers were promoted; After the stabilization of the battle line, the large-scale armed conflict with the Mongol Yuan also masked the contradiction, and the courtiers were not heeded by his proposal to change the reward system.

Subsequently, when Zhao Yu was discussing state affairs, he proposed to revise the law, and he wanted to take this opportunity to carry out a comprehensive revision of the military law. However, the project was far more extensive than imagined, and it was still in the collection stage, and the first draft was not produced, and the matter was put on hold again. But he did not give up because of this, but adjusted the military merit system with the situation of the edict. However, Wang Yinglin served in the household department, and he was promoted to the governor for only half a year, so he didn't know much about it, so he had a verbal conflict with Cao Cheng, which also triggered everyone's 'education'.

And Zhao Yu saw that Wang Yinglin had a new understanding and insight into the military merit system under the 'education' of everyone and what he saw on the battlefield, so he made a simple exposition of his adjustment of the first-level system:

First of all, it is a common phenomenon to compete for the first rank and grab the head on the battlefield. After all, in the battle on the battlefield, it is actually difficult to tell who killed the original owner of the obtained head, so there is an exaggerated scene of "". In order to prevent this from happening, Zhao Hao set in the iron law at the beginning of the establishment of the Shuaifu Army that no spoils of war should be picked up on the battlefield at will, and all seizures were not allowed to be privately hidden, and then extended to the first-level system.

At the beginning, when killing and wounding the enemy on the opposite side, each team was still allowed to press the formation and cut the enemy's head, but only one person was allowed to carry it behind the battle, and when the troops were collected after the battle, and when there was a military order to check the merits, they were allowed to leave the team for inspection. However, after the full replacement of muskets, the cold weapons were completely disassembled, and the requirements for this were more stringent, because in the linear queue, once someone leaves the team to harvest the head, it will cause chaos in the queue, and the soldier who cut off the head will also be assassinated by his companions in the back row. And the individual equipment equipped by the soldiers has canceled the single knife and other sharp weapons, and it is still easy to cut off the head with a three-edged bayonet and a dagger for self-defense!

At the same time, in offensive warfare, it is often the case that battalions, regiments, and brigades are larger units fighting, and linear combat columns are used to advance at the same time, but often all units will send stragglers to wait for an opportunity to attack the enemy, and they will also undertake the task of cutting off their heads, unified management, and unified inspection, so as to avoid the occurrence of things that are competing for the first rank, and can be credited with this.

Secondly, in order to solve the problem of losses suffered by artillery, baggage and other soldiers who could not meet the enemy on the front line, Zhao Yu made targeted adjustments, and the focus was to change the credit of the first level from individual to collective ownership. Each head is discussed with 30 runs, the first 20 runs, the one who kills the enemy twice, the rest of the soldiers who have no points are consistent, although the firefighters do not go into battle, the team has merit, and it is also divided into five mo; Each independent artillery unit supporting the unit's operations was also divided into two parts.

In other words, as long as the enemy is killed, the entire team will be rewarded for charging hand-to-hand combat, long-range shooting, and even supporting combat and housekeeping. This requires the soldiers to have their own division of labor, set up a special person to cut the head, and the head level is managed in a unified manner. In fact, while avoiding soldiers competing for the first rank, it also allows soldiers to be more united and perform their duties to destroy more enemies.

In addition, Zhao Yu also agreed on the rules on how to determine the battle record in a defensive battle or a battle where he could not go to harvest the first rank. For an enemy who falls to the ground, being dragged away or carried away by another enemy is counted as a kill, walking on the back is considered a wound, and fleeing back to the formation after pretending to be dead is counted as a missed shot. In order to prevent some people from making false achievements, it was also stipulated that the number of enemies destroyed reported by the headquarters should be consistent with those confirmed by the observation posts at higher levels. However, if a small unit fights independently, it must be confirmed by neighbors or other combatants, otherwise it will be considered invalid.

After some discussion, Wang Yinglin can be said to have benefited a lot, he knows that the reward method issued by the little emperor at the moment is still not accurate, and the possibility of fraud cannot be completely avoided. However, it also ensures fairness to the greatest extent, that is, it encourages the brave to take the lead, and takes into account the interests of the rear personnel, and basically achieves 'meritorious service is rewarded'......

In the following days, the two armies fought many times. The Song army intended to seize Baoyou City, forming a coercive momentum of troops approaching the city. The Yuan army, on the other hand, hoped to quickly defeat the current enemy and drive the Song army back to Jiangnan. One wants to capture the city, the other wants to break the enemy, the two sides do not agree on the concept, and they can only see the real chapter on the battlefield, but neither of the two armies seems to have achieved their goal, Baoyou City is still in the hands of the Yuan army, and the Song army has not been defeated, but the battalion continues to move forward and expand, and there is a tendency to gradually close.

Zhao Yu seems to have suddenly lost interest in the battlefield, and he no longer has to come to every battle. It is often early in the morning to gather generals to discuss matters and listen to battle reports, but they often listen to too much talk and do not participate in opinions. More stayed in the camp, dealing with official documents sent from the capital, or patrolling the battalions, and devoted his mind to the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the soldiers, more like a baggage officer, rather than an emperor sitting in the Chinese army.

"Your Majesty, let's enter the account, several envoys have been waiting for a long time!" Wang De heard the announcement and hurriedly greeted him.

"Hmm!" Zhao Hao snorted as he rubbed the mud on his boots. Although it is Jiangbei, the climate is still warmer than that of Huaibei, the land cannot be frozen, and the surface will thaw at noon, and the roads in the camp will become muddy.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!" Several officials waiting in the tent also hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.

"Let's talk about it!" Zhao Hao wiped his boots clean and raised his hand to let them enter the account without courtesy.

There was a brazier in the big tent, which was much warmer than outside, and Zhao Yu took off the big tent and let everyone sit down. There was a small yellow door to bring hot tea, and he glanced at everyone, and the baggage officers, medical officers, and grain and grass officers of each battalion had already arrived.

"Medical Superintendent An, I just went to the medical hospital of the first division, and I found that the number of frostbite patients has increased, and the soldiers suffering from wind and cold, do you have a way to deal with it?" Zhao Yu directly skipped the greetings and asked politely directly.

"Your Majesty, you also know something!" An Ye is the chief medical superintendent of the army, in charge of the medical hospitals and medical camps of various departments, was named by the emperor, hurriedly got up and saluted, "Due to the cold weather, and the camping in the wilderness, no fire can be lit in the tent, so that many of them have frostbite on their hands, feet, and faces. ”

"There have been sporadic reports of people suffering from wind and cold in various departments, and there is no widespread epidemic, and the lowly officials have sent prescriptions to order the medical officers of all departments to treat them according to the prescription, and temporarily isolate them to prevent the spread!"

"It's a shame that you're the one who took you on the plague ship, don't you know that prevention is more important than cure?" Zhao Yu was not satisfied with his answer, and said in a deep voice.

"Humble duty knows mistakes, but if it is a large-scale distribution of medicines, it seems to be too early!" An Ye had also suffered with the little emperor on the plague ship back then, so he naturally knew the danger, and hurriedly confessed his mistake, but he felt that there was no need to make a big fanfare.

"Confusion, when it spreads, it will be too late. The doctors of all departments can be notified to strictly screen the sick patients, and the sick patients can be sent to the Houjun Medical Hospital for isolation and treatment. In addition, a decoction to prevent wind and cold was boiled, and every soldier was ordered to take it in the morning and evening, and rinsed his mouth with salt water, and added more ginger and garlic to the food to prevent trouble! Zhao Yu snorted coldly and said sharply.

"Obey the order, handle it immediately!" An Ye hurriedly saluted.

"Envoy Guo, how many shoes and socks are there in the army?" Zhao Yu pressed his hand to let An Ye sit down, and then looked at Guo Dongping, the transfer envoy in the army.

"Your Majesty, there are still more than 10,000 sets of spare shoes and socks in the army, if they are insufficient, they can be transported from the Jiangnan warehouse!" Guo Dongping replied.

"Well, the frostbite of the soldiers' hands and feet is mostly due to the fact that the gloves used to protect against the cold during the construction of the camp were damaged, and they sweated a lot, and their shoes and socks were soaked with sweat. However, there is no fire in the tent, so that it cannot be dried in time, and it cannot be replaced in time. You distribute the socks and gloves stored in the battalion to the soldiers who wear it out the most, and then allocate it as quickly as possible to ensure that each soldier has a surplus to replace. Previously, it was necessary to only supervise the commanders of each department to replace the soldiers in time, and use the rest time to dry their shoes and socks, otherwise their hands and feet would be injured, and what would they do to kill the enemy! Zhao Yu thought for a moment.

"Yes, I will personally supervise this matter and strive to complete it within three days!" Guo Dongping gave the order to the order.

"Oh, there's one more thing!" Zhao Yu thought for a while.

"Your Majesty, please!" Guo Dongping was just about to sit down, but quickly straightened up and said.

"The weather is bitter and cold, and each infantry soldier will be given two taels of wine and three taels of water to resist the wet and cold of winter, do you think it is feasible?" Zhao Yu hesitated and said, alcohol has always been forbidden in the army, so it can be regarded as setting a precedent......
