Chapter 788. The New Army of Soldiers (VIII).
……
……
Although He Zhang is already at the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, he is old and strong, full of energy, and still has a loud voice, and most of the soldiers under the high stage heard his shouting!
After hearing He Zhang's inquiry, the soldiers were in an uproar.
In this era, there is no national concept, let alone a sense of national honor! The vast majority of soldiers join the army just to make ends meet, and the desperate work on the battlefield is all for rewards, and not many people have the consciousness of dying on the battlefield and sacrificing their lives for the country.
In fact, in the barracks, words such as "death in battle", "sacrifice", and "casualties" have always been taboo, and military attachés have never mentioned them at will, for fear that it will damage morale and disturb the morale of the army, but now He Zhang is shouting in public, and also asked the soldiers to choose between "dying on the battlefield" and "making meritorious contributions".
Why choose? As long as it is a normal person, they know which one to choose.
The soldiers of the new army are all veterans, and there are few people with stage fright at this time, and after hearing He Zhang's loud question, some people answered loudly one after another.
"Of course, it is to make meritorious contributions and return to the hometown!"
"Only fools want to die on the battlefield!"
"Lao Tzu just had a mother-in-law, and I don't know which bastard to be cheaper when I die outside!"
Some of the answers were extremely rude, causing a burst of laughter, and the whole training ground seemed noisy and unruly, but He Zhang was not angry, he himself was not an elegant person, and even thought that this vulgar performance was part of the blood and bravery of the soldiers.
When the noise stopped, He Zhang shouted again: "Now, Lord Qincha has summoned you to form a new army of soldiers, concentrated nearly half of the elites on the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu, and given the most generous salaries and rewards, and there will be the best armor and logistics in the future...... But on the other hand, the new army of soldiers will also face the most vicious enemies in the future! Appear on the most scorching battlefields! Fight hard against the most elite Mongol powerhouses! If you win, each of you will be promoted and rich, and if you lose, most of you will die on the battlefield! Do you want to win? Or do you want to lose? ”
This is still a question that can be answered without thinking.
Moreover, Zhao Junchen's ideological mobilization work during this period has indeed had an effect.
So, once again, some soldiers replied in a chaotic manner: "Win!" "Of course you have to win!" "Kill those brute tartars!"
After hearing the answer, He Zhang's expression became more and more serious, and he said: "If you want to win, you must be stronger than those Mongolian Tatars, otherwise everything you say is false!" If you want to be stronger than those Mongolian Tatars, you need to practice weekdays! Otherwise, you will only be sent to death if you go to the battlefield! I just watched your drills! Some people are lazy, some people are playing, some people are chatting, even if a few soldiers practice seriously, it is not orderly! The war in the future will not be a small fight in the past! If you continue to practice like this, how will you save your lives on the battlefield? And how to make a fortune?
Of course, you can't be blamed for these situations! It was Hong Gaogong, the former leading general, who didn't seriously control you! He doesn't care whether you live or die on the battlefield, even if you are most dead, as long as you defeat the Mongols, he can get military merit and rise to prominence! So, as soon as I got here, I blasted him away! Because I'm your boss! I'm responsible for you! I want each of you to get off the battlefield alive! I hope each and every one of you can return home! Therefore, I will no longer let you go like Hong Gaogong, I will strictly urge you to practice from today onwards, and I will even punish you severely for the sake of practice!
In the coming period, there will inevitably be many people who hate me so much that I grit my teeth, but that's okay! I wish you would hate me in 10 or 20 years! That means you've at least survived the battlefield! And, at that time, you must have received a large amount of silver, had your own land, and maybe even became the chief flag officer, a hundred household officials, or even a thousand household officials! ”
In this way, He Zhang kept shouting loudly, his face gradually became hideous, and his voice gradually became hoarse, which made people feel crazy and believable.
Standing behind He Zhang, listening to He Zhang's speech, all the officers were indeed full of admiration.
Who said He Zhang didn't have scheming? The knowledge of this remark is great! In just a few words, He Zhang made himself the spokesperson for the interests of all the soldiers, so that all the soldiers alienated Hong Gaogong and got close to him, and he was tempted to benefit, understand reason, and threaten his life! Let all the soldiers understand!
At the same time, the soldiers under the high stage also listened carefully, and then thought of He Zhang's reputation and prestige over the years, many people were convinced, obviously agreeing with He Zhang's reasoning.
Then, Zhang Cheng's heart moved, but he suddenly knelt down on one knee beside He Zhang, and said loudly: "We will obey General He's orders!" Practice with your heart! Fight your way to the enemy! ”
Under the leadership of Zhang Cheng, everyone on the training ground, whether military attachés or soldiers, saluted He Zhang one after another, and shouted in unison: "We will obey General He's orders!" Practice with your heart! Fight your way to the enemy! ”
Seeing everyone's statement, He Zhang slightly turned his head and glanced at Zhang Cheng, and his eyes flashed with admiration again.
Then, He Zhang shouted again: "In order to train you and let you defeat the Mongol Tartars on the battlefield, I will announce three military orders here!" First, from today onwards, all officers and soldiers must unconditionally obey military orders, and violators will be severely punished! Second, from today onwards, the officers and men of the new army will be 10 people as a team, 50 people as a team, and those who are brave in force will be the captains, and those who are expected to return will be the captains! Third, from today onwards, the whole team will be assembled twice a day in the morning and evening, and the slowest team in the whole team will be halved! The fastest team in the whole team, everyone is eating and meat!
In addition to that, I would like to announce two more things! First, I came to the Huamachi camp here, and brought my own 200 personal guards, also divided into four teams and 20 troops, all the teams of the new army of soldiers can challenge them at any time, the winning team's salary will rise by 10%, each person can drink a bowl of alcohol that night, the captain and captain of the team can be promoted, and those who perform well can take over the position of captain and captain! As for the second thing......"
Speaking of this, He Zhang's gaze turned to Liu Manniu, Zhang Cheng, and Li Pi, and shouted: "Liu Manniu, Zhang Cheng, and Li Pi of the hundred households, violated military regulations today, in order to set an example, warn all the soldiers, and show the determination of the Governor's Palace, I will be ordered by Lord Qincha to punish three people with a cane in front of all the soldiers, and Liu Manniu will be fined ten times and one month!" Zhang Cheng and Li Picane five, fined half a month! …… Can the three of you be convinced? ”
Hearing He Zhang's announcement, everyone was in an uproar again!
These three people are the most powerful and influential military attachés of the New Army, after He Zhang took over the New Army, not only did he not win them over, but the first thing he did was to punish them with a rod?
In addition to the shock, everyone felt the power of military regulations, and He Zhang Liwei's goal was also achieved.
Liu Manniu, Zhang Cheng, and Li Pi were already mentally prepared, and after glancing at each other, they also replied in unison: "Inferior people should be punished for violating military regulations, and they are convinced, and they dare not question it!" ”
He Zhang nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Come on, the military stick is waiting!" ”
In this way, in front of all the soldiers, He Zhangzhu punished Liu Manniu, Zhang Cheng, and Li Pi.
Taking this as a starting point, He Zhang's action to train the new army was also vigorously launched!
