After settling the alpaca trade, Li Mingyuan and Sun Bin chatted for a while, and at this time, a group of disabled soldiers walked behind the relocated team, some of them were incomplete and some were wounded.

Li Mingyuan stepped forward to greet them, and found that they were soldiers who had been wounded during the encirclement and suppression of Peruvian reinforcements, and they were about to go to the city of Arequipa.

Ancient feudal armies often abandoned wounded soldiers when they moved to battle. But Li Mingyuan will not do this.

Wounded soldiers will bring a certain amount of trouble to the troops during the long-distance transfer, but these wounded soldiers are all wounded in battle, and ignoring them will not only affect the morale of the army, but also Li Mingyuan himself will not be able to explain it.

Checking the injuries of a soldier with a head injury, Li Mingyuan stood in front of more than a hundred wounded soldiers and said, "Brothers, you were injured on the front line of the battle because of the charge, and I admire your courage. ”

The wounded soldiers around him were either standing or sitting in the carriage and listened carefully to Li Mingyuan's speech.

"Some brothers may think that when they are injured and disabled, they become useless waste. It will only drag others away. ”

Li Mingyuan's words entered the hearts of the wounded soldiers, and it was undoubtedly very painful for a soldier to be injured and disabled and unable to go into battle.

Seeing the soldiers who joined the Chinese Independence Army with them made meritorious contributions and were promoted, they themselves were huddled in the infirmary, doing nothing but recuperating their wounds and watching the soldiers train not far away.

Even if others don't say anything unpleasant, they still have a certain inferiority complex in their hearts.

"I don't think so, though." Li Mingyuan carefully looked at the wounded soldiers around him.

"There used to be such a unit in Western countries, when the foreign enemy invaded, men, women and children went into battle together to kill the enemy, and many soldiers with amputated legs were arranged to be machine gunners to deal heavy blows to the enemy.

Therefore, it is not terrible to be injured and disabled, but it is terrible that we have no faith.

Brothers sitting here, going into battle to kill the enemy is not necessarily your only choice,

Although you have a disability, you have accumulated more experience in actual combat than the average soldier, and you can pass on the experience to new recruits, or you can wait until your injuries have healed to join some special units. ”

After Li Mingyuan finished speaking, the spirit of the wounded soldiers around him improved significantly.

Li Mingyuan felt that this was not enough, and pointed to a tall officer in front of him who had his left arm amputated and said, "What is the name of this brother?" ”

"He Yanliang, deputy platoon commander of the fourth platoon of the third squadron of the lowly broadsword team." The tall officer raised his remaining right hand in salute.

"What are Platoon Commander He's plans after he recovers from his injury?"

"I want to return to the Broadsword Team and continue to kill the enemy."

"That's a good idea," Li Mingyuan nodded in approval.

"A right hand can also kill enemies on the battlefield, but I have a more important task for you."

After listening to the second half of Li Mingyuan's words, He Yanliang immediately frowned, and said dissatisfiedly in his heart: "The prince just said that the ministry despises the disabled soldiers, but as soon as I proposed to return to the team after recovering from injury, the prince politely refused, isn't this still looking down on people?" ”

Li Mingyuan found He Yanliang's dissatisfaction, and said with a smile: "The heart position I arranged for you is much more important than your original position as deputy platoon commander."

I plan to set up a wounded soldier training brigade to train soldiers with different levels of disability and then assign them to suitable posts. ”

"Shizi, I don't want to go to the wounded soldier brigade, I just want to return to the broadsword team." After He Yanliang heard Li Mingyuan's words, he immediately reluctant, the wounded soldier training brigade is not an institution that manages wounded soldiers, so I am not willing to do it.

"He Yanliang, are you still a soldier?" Li Mingyuan was very dissatisfied with He Yanliang's answer and asked seriously.

"Yes," He Yanliang immediately straightened up and said solemnly.

"Soldier Yi obeys orders as his duty, has Mi done it?"

He Yanliang stood motionless, wanting to speak but didn't dare.

Li Mingyuan calmed down and said, "Managing wounded soldiers is not to let you out of the army, but to let you help other injured brothers to adapt to life in the future."

When managing wounded soldiers, I will send special personnel to provide them with cultural education and guidance, and the qualified wounded soldiers will serve as grassroots administrative personnel after recovering from their injuries.

Wounded soldiers who are physically able to do so are given military theory education, and after they recover from their injuries, they return to the front-line troops or garrison forces. ”

There is no suitable management talent for the management of wounded soldiers for the time being, so Li Mingyuan can only forcibly manage the wounded soldiers according to He Yanliang, who is not physically disabled and is an officer.

"Will my rank still be retained?" Obedience to orders is the first priority in the army, and He Yanming did not dare to oppose it again, so he asked another concern.

The military rank system has been recognized by the Chinese army for a month, and the presence or absence of a military rank indicates whether a soldier is still in the army.

The Chinese Independence Army has a strict military system, and soldiers in non-combat units do not have our rank mark, such as military doctors, cooks, and civilian personnel, etc., are not counted in the ranks of combat troops, and are only given the treatment of corresponding ranks, without military ranks.

"Not only will your rank be retained, but if you manage the wounded squad well, I will also promote you to major."

He Yanliang's current military rank is second lieutenant, and there is a gap of three grades between second lieutenant and major, and if the rank is promoted to the rank of major, he can command a battalion of soldiers in the field army.

Battalion and regiment-level officers belong to mid-level officers, and under normal circumstances, they do not need to personally lead the charge, and He Yanliang's arm has little impact on his command of operations.

"Shizi, if I am promoted to major, is there any chance to return to serve in the field army?" He Yanliang felt that he had another chance to return to the front line, and asked cautiously.

The other wounded soldiers also looked at Li Mingyuan, wanting to get an answer from him.

Hot weapons have not yet developed to the level of cruelty that they later had, and most of the disabled soldiers are not particularly severely disabled, so they have not given up hope of returning to the battlefield.

"I would like to explain one thing to you, the wounded squad is included in the jurisdiction of the field unit and belongs to the establishment of the combat unit.

Moreover, during the period of recuperation of the wounded soldier, the army will send personnel to guide and study, and wait until the soldier's injury has healed, conduct an investigation, and then decide the direction of his stay according to the soldier's performance during the injury.

A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and the brothers may have some disabilities, but there are many generals with disabilities in history, and I hope that you will not give up, learn more military theory knowledge during your injury, and strive to become a newly rising general in the Chinese Independence Army. ”

Li Mingyuan's last sentence aroused the confidence of the wounded soldiers, He Yanliang excitedly saluted Li Mingyuan, and the other wounded soldiers also raised their right hands to salute.

"Director Sun, you are responsible for the placement of wounded soldiers, and you must ensure the health of wounded soldiers." After the wounded soldiers on the official road left, Li Mingyuan left Sun Bin behind and ordered.

"Yes."

"Chief of Staff Liu, you are the director of the logistics department, right?"

"Yes, I've always been in charge of the logistics."

"Deputy Director Sun has good ability, let him be the director of logistics to help you share the task." Sun Bin was Liu Pu's direct subordinate, and Li Mingyuan asked for his opinion.

"A lot of logistics work is handled by Deputy Director Sun, and it is just right to promote him to the position of department chief." Liu Pu agreed.
