Pei Min met Yuan Luqian in the mansion, he did not choose to be in the office, but in the living room in the backyard, and called Yan Gaoqing.

After setting up enough food and drink, the three of them ate and drank while talking about official business, and at the same time continuing their brotherhood.

Yuan Luqian and Yan Gaoqing were the first confidants and friends Pei Min met when he came to this era. Although they did not kowtow to each other like Liu Guanzhang, they worshiped their mother, and the relationship between them was not much inferior to Liu Guanzhang.

Yuan Luqian first reported on the situation of the Hexi Army.

"Compared with the style of the Hexi Army before, the current Hexi Army can be said to be very different. Combat effectiveness is not easy to assess, after all, it is not a long time, and the spirit changes a lot. Just like the sentence that Brother Pei often says, 'A soldier must look like a soldier', and now most of them have the appearance of soldiers. ”

As the envoy of Jiedu, Yuan Luqian's task was to act as Pei Min's eyes, inspect the situation of all the military horses in Hexi, and supervise whether the generals of the Quartet were doing their duty.

"It's hard work, as long as you have the appearance of a soldier, you don't have to worry about not being able to fight hard."

Pei Min's current military level has made great progress after years of actual combat combined with the edification of the theories of Li Jing, Su Dingfang, and Pei Xingjian.

Perhaps for others, military training is not an easy thing. But now Pei Min is a matter of being caught.

To put it bluntly, the key to military training is to use carrots and sticks to develop good habits with incentive policies that coexist with rewards and punishments.

Strict military law is a big stick, and rich rewards are carrots, plus a competitive system of eliminating the good and the bad, forming a strong military system.

Serving under Pei Min, although he will be supervised by harsh military law, but the benefits are undoubted.

Pei Min's influence in the court is far greater than that of other border marshals, and changing armaments is a matter of a letter.

Military salary?

Not to mention that the court is thriving now, it is not bad money, even if it is poor money, the household department does not dare to delay one or two.

He has the best armor and equipment, and pays military salaries regularly, and there is never any deduction. The quality of food in the army is excellent, there is broth in the meal, and you can eat all kinds of stewed meat every once in a while.

In short, under Pei Min's command, he eats well, sleeps well, dresses well, and can also exempt the family from paying taxes, so that the family can live a comfortable life, this kind of good thing will laugh in a dream.

What else to say about serving in such an army?

The only concern was the fear of being expelled.

Because Pei Min adopted the point system of later generations, every soldier has points that accompany them, and extra points are added for their outstanding performance, and points are deducted for mistakes, and if a certain number of points are deducted, they will be expelled from the barracks.

Once he was expelled from the barracks, all benefits were gone.

Driven by this interest, all soldiers consciously abide by all military regulations and actively participate in training.

This self-consciousness develops a habit over time, which can change one's conduct and style.

That's how terrible habits are.

A person who has been a soldier for three years can usually tell at a glance from someone who has not been a soldier.

Even if you leave the army, the temperament cultivated by habit is difficult to wear.

This point system also has the advantage of giving ambitious minions a chance to compete for higher points, and they are more motivated, more likely to be in the eyes of their superiors, and easier to get promoted.

Of course, no matter how good the system is, it also needs excellent generals to implement it.

This also depends on the level and strength of the three governors of Feng Changqing, Zhang Xiaosong, and Cui Xiyi, as well as many military envoys.

At the same time, it is also the key to Yuan Luqian's responsibility.

When Yuan Luqian inspected and supervised for the first time, he took down two military envoys and four deputy envoys for him, which made the Hexi army fearful like a tiger and called him a black-faced envoy.

In order to guard against this black-faced envoy, many military envoys who did not know him wanted to find out his rules and prepare in advance.

But I don't want Yuan Luqian's inspection and supervision to be qualitative, and there is no trace at all.

Only Pei Min and Yan Gaoqing know that Yuan Luqian's inspection and supervision route is all based on the will of God, and he himself doesn't know where his next stop is, he relies on throwing copper coins to determine the direction, and then decides whether to make an open inspection or a secret visit with the front and back.

Once, Zhehuchen was really lucky, and he took care of Yuan Luqian three times in a row, which made Zhehuchen, a famous tiger general in Liangzhou, even suspect that he had offended this black-faced envoy somewhere, and wanted to ask for wine to make amends.

In short, in the face of the elusive Yuan Luqian, even Feng Changqing, Zhang Xiaosong, and Cui Xiyi did not dare to be careless, let alone other military envoys.

Under this rational and effective system, after more than half a year of development, the Hexi Army has gradually faded from its original shadow.

Yuan Luqian drank a full cup of wine and said: "Serving the country, how hard it is to talk about it." It is a blessing in my life to be able to show my talents in the right position. ”

Pei Min said solemnly: "This is true, but the so-called house is not swept, why sweep the world, don't pull down your own affairs." Xia Junenvoy is really good, what the hell do you think. My mother has said it several times, as long as Brother Yuan agrees here, she will be the matchmaker for you. ”

In a word, Yuan Luqian's face was red.

Yan Gaoqing also joined in the excitement and said: "Jingyuan specially introduced the Xia military envoy to my brother, which is really good." The other girl's family is so open-minded, what are you ashamed of as a big man. ”

Yuan Luqian had no choice but to tell the truth: "Actually, I also think Miss Xia is good, but I'm worried that the future child will not be easy to take care of." She is destined not to be like her sister-in-law and younger sisters, husband and child. My parents are no longer alive, and Miss Xia is also a lonely one, who will take care of the children in the future? If one of her parents and I were alive and could help us take care of the children, this marriage would have been completed a long time ago. I can't wronged myself, let alone wronged her! Do not do unto others as you would have them do unto you......"

Pei Min was stunned, and finally understood the problem.

It's no wonder that Yuan Luqian is machismo, the ancients were influenced by the times, not to mention that getting married is a lifelong thing for the two of them.

Reality is that many times, it's not so friendly.

Yuan Luqian thought about it so thoroughly, and it seemed to be a man's responsibility.

After a pause, Pei Min smiled and said, "Actually, this problem is easy to handle, you have a child." In the first few years, Xia Shan will definitely retire. As for the future, aren't we still there? Your child is my son, who will help take care of you and take care of it. ”

Yan Gaoqing also said: "What Brother Jingyuan said is that my mother and wife can also help in this regard, it's not a big deal." But the key is still up to you, because my brother thinks you have this concern, it is better to talk about it in person. Discuss the result together, whether it is successful or not, depends on the result. ”

Yuan Luqian nodded and said, "Okay, that's it." I'll talk about this matter with Miss Xia in total. ”

Pei Min was drinking wine with the two of them, and said his next plan, "In more than a month, winter will fall, and I plan to call the Hexi Army to do a drill, so that the soldiers can adapt to fighting in the cold winter......"

For the future, he planned very well, but at the beginning of the boom.

He received a holy decree from Chang'an.
