Shang Wu didn't know how military ranks were identified in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but what he did know was that currently, his army had to implement a military rank system because they were experiencing administrative difficulties. And this difficulty must be solved by military rank.

Shang Wu had the female workers of the textile factory sew a batch of armbands. Actually, it's a cut of some red stars and a bar. At present, Shangwu is not yet able to appear on a larger scale. The biggest is the platoon of military cadres.

"Sir, what is this?" Kuroko asked excitedly.

"That's the rank. One bar, three stars, this means captain, your next rank is a lieutenant, one bar. Two stars, and a second lieutenant, warrant officer. Shang Wu explained. If you move the US military's set, it is not realistic at all, for the simple reason that it will confuse everything, and don't think that you are the same as everyone else. In order to reduce the trouble, Shangwu had to resort to some other methods of use, and the Soviet military rank seemed to be very suitable for this, with a large number of people and strict ranks. Easy to identify. Shang Wen took such a military rank. This is the best way to mix and use.

"This is the captain, the commander of a company, that is, your current number, the next is the lieutenant, is your deputy, can manage a platoon, and the second lieutenant, can also manage a platoon, they are all the most basic officers." Shang Wu said.

"This is a sergeant, sergeant, corporal, and private, private. The most basic soldier of the private. Shang Wu said.

"Of course. There is also the sergeant major, to which he will add a bar, up to the rank of sergeant major of the third class. He has extensive combat experience, is a veteran, and is the highest rank of a soldier by providing officers with the necessary tactical references when necessary. There are also a number of Medals of Honor. Shang Wu continued.

"For example, recognizing your soldiers for their outstanding performance in various battles is not just a promotion in rank. At the same time, it is also an improvement of personal honor. Shang Wu said.

It doesn't take a lot of time to make something like this, because a lot of fabric can be cut out on a large scale at once. However, there is a lot of symbolism in this. Shangwu asked him to send down what was prepared.

"Except for the captain, I am appointed and dismissed. The lieutenants below, the second lieutenants, are appointed and dismissed by yourselves. In this way, your situation will be well improved. Shang Wu said.

"Oops, Captain, Captain. I'm a captain. Zhang Li said excitedly.

"Hehe," Kuroko just laughed, no one knew he was giggling at him, but he touched the simple armband. But he was very happy.

"Sir, what kind of official are you?" A platoon commander got a second lieutenant's armband from his company commander, he was a little unhappy, but there was no way, he only managed thirty people, and he couldn't manage these thirty people. Ensign, he's already satisfied.

"Colonel." Shang Wu replied.

"Colonel?" Many people don't know what kind of official the colonel is, in fact, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, people's understanding is that the lieutenant is older than the colonel, and the explanation of martial arts naturally makes them feel a little confused. They don't understand why their prefect uses a colonel, or what a colonel.

"Yes, Colonel, our ranks are divided into, soldiers, privates, privates, corporals, sergeants, etc. And then there is the lieutenant, the captain, the lieutenant, the second lieutenant. The next level is the school officer. Or major, lieutenant colonel, colonel. They can manage more people. Shang Wu said.

"One level higher, it's the general. They are, brigadier general, major general, lieutenant general, and admiral. Shang Wu explained to his subordinates. Hearing this, his subordinates had already begun to count with their fingers crossed.

"What, I'm a lieutenant, and there are so many ranks up there." A lieutenant calculated.

"Don't make any noise, sir, why are you just a colonel? In our opinion, sir, you should be a general, the highest, the general. Kuroko said, it seems that Shangwu is the highest level of existence.

"That's because the colonel is only a regimental commander, and the establishment of a regiment is between 2,000 and 5,000 people, so you see how many of us there are?" Shang Wu said.

"A company, up to two hundred people, and a battalion, can be from five hundred to eight hundred people. You are at such a stage. Shang Wu said.

The people were silent. Because they began to count their forces, yes, don't they have such a small number of troops in their hands?

"Sir, I, I promise, will be the first to exceed five hundred." Zhang Li stood up with confidence and said.

"You can do it, you cow, I can do it. I was the first. Kuroko stood up and competed.

"Huh. Okay, sit down, of course, this soldier can be gathered by himself, but you have to set up your own recruit company, manage and train the recruits in a centralized manner, and then assign them to the veterans, and the veterans will take the recruits, so that the combat effectiveness will be reduced, for example, those privates, let the corporals and sergeants take them, so that they can learn something, and they can grow up quickly in the future, but for some basic training of recruits, you can't relax. Let them know what you are most capable of. Do you understand? Shang Wu said.

"Understood. Sir. The crowd replied that when they returned, they would arrange their own ranks, establishments, and through the control of military ranks, they could make their troops play a more effective combat effect. In order for this effect to continue to be exerted, Shangwu still needs to fight.

Inside the temporary headquarters of Shang Wu.

"How?" Shang Wu asked when he saw Xiao Douzi.

"Sir, those officers and soldiers are still in Sanjia Village, their vigilance is still relatively high, there are cavalry patrols around, we want to sneak attack like before, it seems impossible, before we get close, it is possible to be discovered, and there are cavalry, we can't force the other party into a narrow area in the first time." Little Beans said.

Xiaodouzi's scouts are actually gendarmes, and being able to be elected as gendarmes means that they still have excellent military skills, but that's it, the opponent's tight defense does not give Shangwu a chance at all.

"Huh, it seems that this battle is not easy to fight." Shang Wu thought for a moment and said.

"Sir, the key is the cavalry, the opponent has a high level of mobility, and it is a complete formation, they are not like those Yellow Turban Army, they do not have any combat skills, on the contrary, they are officers and soldiers. The combat effectiveness is still there, and if we encircle it from the front, we will lose more troops, and in the end, we may not be able to resist it. Little Beans said.

"Hmm." Sang-woo nodded in agreement, and the current situation was indeed like this.

"Do you have any ideas?" Shang Wu asked, Little Bean.

"Sir, I think, I think so, the battlefield might be better if it were chosen to be with us. After all, we are very familiar with this place, if we choose to fight Sanjia Village, the battlefield chosen by the enemy is there, and we can't hold back and eat each other. In this case, we will be defeated by the other party, and if we can attract the other party like the heroes of Liangshan, for example, we will deliver the grain that is transported to us. Lijiazhuang, here we have an authentic, let the other party attract over, let's have one, close the door and beat the dog. Shut it in, let the other person's hand draw in, and you're good to go. Little Beans said.

"Hmm." Shang Wu nodded in agreement, and to be honest, he was ten thousand unwilling to fight such a battle in his own base. The reason is very simple, because after the officials and soldiers come here, the destructive power will be quite serious, which will greatly damage the base built by Shangwu. Not a last resort. You can't direct the flames of war to your own doorstep.

"It's a good idea. However, we also need to think carefully. How to lure the other side into our encirclement, as well as the preset battlefield. Shang Wu said.

"Sir, are you going to get our people ready right away?" Little Bean asked.

"Hmm. Wait, if we don't have home, we can strengthen our defenses. Shang Wu thought about it, the last time he attacked Sanjia Village, it was because of high morale. The combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban Army was poor, and they did not even send a guard post when they came. So Shangwu took advantage of it, but this time, it was the regular army, they had their own guard posts, cavalry, infantry, and even a complete offensive system, and if they took the initiative to attack, they would not have an advantage.

"Sir." Little Bean asked Shang Wu, who was thinking about it.

"Looks like that's all we have to do. Let's get our soldiers ready to get some things into the tunnels. The troops began to prepare for battle. We made a plan to lure each other into our village, and in addition, we quickly raised our flags, as well as the smoke from every house, and remembered, let all the people enter the tunnels. Keep them safe. Shang Wu said.

"Yes, sir." Azuki replied. Shang Wen decided to eliminate these officers and troops in Lijiazhuang.

The reason why they are in Lijiazhuang is because they can have a great home advantage here, and with such an advantage, they can solve a lot of problems, so as to take advantage of favorable conditions and form a favorable situation. The disadvantage is that the damage to Lijiazhuang is relatively large. There is no way around it.
