Chapter 34: Military Regulations and Military Merit

Chapter 34 Military Regulations and Military Merit

When Lu Bu heard Jia Xu mention this problem, he already knew it, "Don't hide it from the military division, I really have an idea, and I have discussed it with Gao Shun before, that is, the "three-three system", ten people are in a class, and there is a squad leader; Three shifts are a platoon, with a platoon leader; Three platoons are a company, with a company commander; Three companies are a battalion with a battalion commander; The three battalions are a regiment with a regimental commander; The three regiments are one brigade with a brigade commander; The three brigades are one division with division commanders. “

"The first division has nearly 12,000 people, which is enough for us now, and if the army is expanded in the future, we can also increase the number of corps-level personnel, and the three divisions will be one army."

"Oh?" Three-three system"? After listening to what Lu Bu said, Jia Xu thought for a while, and his fingers unconsciously tapped on the table.

Soon, his eyes brightened, "Gao Ming, the ancients already had the names of army, division, brigade, regiment, and battalion, and the "three-three system" is very suitable for us, the soldiers at the bottom are managed by the squad leader, and the platoon commander only needs to manage three squad leaders. “

By analogy, the higher-level officials only need to manage the three lower-level officials who are directly connected with them, so that more energy can be shifted from managing the day-to-day to directing operations. However, the commander-in-chief at each rank needs a sufficient number of soldiers to convey military orders to ensure that they can command effectively, especially when the army commanded by senior officers is larger. ”

Lu Bu gave a thumbs up and praised: "Sure enough, the military division is still smart, and he saw the key points at once, and whether it is offensive or defensive, the three-three system just corresponds to the left, middle, and right sides, which is convenient for layout and arrangement." ”

Lu Bu stopped Jia Xu, who still wanted to say something, "The military division is recovering from a serious illness, you should still have a good rest, Gao Shun, whatever the military advisor says to you, you have to make a long story short, don't affect the rest of the military division, I am the chief referee, and I will not participate in the exercise." With that, Lu Bu got up and said goodbye, leaving Gao Shun and Jia Xu to discuss and plan and trap the tactical play of the camp.

The five days passed quickly, during which Lu Feifei came to find Lu Bu, pestered Lu Bu, and asked him to talk about the customs of Luoyang, and heard that His Majesty the Emperor also rewarded a large mansion in Luoyang City, so he shouted to go to Luoyang to play.

Lu Bu took out a few gifts specially bought for her from Luoyang, and finally coaxed the aunt and grandmother, promising her that Li Su would go to Luoyang again next time and let Li Su take her to play, so she gave up.

On the fourth and fifth days, the soldiers of the six counties of Yanmen County, Wuyuan County, Yunzhong County, Dingxiang County, Shuofang County, and Xihe County arrived one after another, all of whom were led by the commanders of each county, a total of 4,000 people, to receive Lu Bu's new training in accordance with the military orders of Lord Assassin Shi.

Now to clarify the time at that time, the AD year is March 183 AD, the dates here are all lunar calendars, and 183 is the sixth year of Guanghe of Emperor Ling of Han, after all, the official occasions and historical records are according to the year name. As soon as the five days passed, preparations were made for the first mobilization meeting of the whole army at the Daxiao Field in the north of the city.

All the soldiers who fell into the camp, the border army soldiers directly under the Xiongnu Zhonglang, the Taihang Mountain Righteous Army recruited by the bandits, the county soldiers of the six counties of Bingzhou, the nobles of the Southern Xiongnu, and all their family members, whether Han or Xiongnu, and even tens of thousands of people from all over the state, all took a day off from work to participate in this mobilization meeting.

On the side of the school field, a high platform was specially built, on which some tables and chairs were placed, and all the generals of the Han army, the high-level nobles of the Southern Xiongnu, several leaders of the craftsman battalion, and the captains of the six counties were invited to sit on the high platform.

As soon as the hour came, the horn sounded, the war drums rumbled, Lu Bu was accompanied by Gao Shun, Jia Xu, Dian Wei and others, and climbed the high platform.

Gao Shun walked to the front of the stage and silenced the audience, and then respectfully invited Lu Bu to speak. Lu Bu is still as handsome and mighty as ever, and his decent military uniform reflects his outstanding temperament, but in order to look more mature, Lu Bu has been growing a beard in the past few months, and he has also left some beards under his chin, and finally he doesn't look so abruptly young.

Lu Brown said: "I think everyone knows that today's mobilization meeting is because there will be an unprecedented confrontation exercise later, but before the exercise, I still have a few important things to announce. “

"The first important thing is to appoint Mr. Jia Xu as the chief of the account of my Xiongnu Zhonglang general, responsible for all military and political affairs, and at the same time the first army division under my Lu Bu's account, the army and civilians are all deployed by him, and there must be no mistakes, and those who disobey the military order will not be killed."

After that, he invited Jia Xu to everyone and personally awarded him the long history of the order and the goose feather fan representing the First Army Division.

"The second thing is to appoint Mr. Zhang Ji as the chief medical officer, and all battalions and counties must select and send suitable disciples to medical doctor Zhang Shen, so that in the future, more comrades-in-arms and villagers will be healed and benefit one side. The third thing is for Gao Shun to announce the five major military regulations of my camp. ”

Gao Shun led the order to the front of the stage: "In addition to the two major military regulations that existed before, three more have been added now, a total of five military regulations, I will announce them all, the first military regulation, all actions are under command, military orders are like mountains, and violators will be killed; “

"The second military regulation prohibits the destruction and destruction of crops and farmland, and there is no forgiveness for violators;"

"The third military rule prohibits the indiscriminate killing of innocents, the indiscriminate killing of prisoners, and there is no forgiveness for violators;"

"Article 4, military regulations, all seizures must be handed over to the public, it is strictly forbidden to hide property and spoils of war privately, violators will be killed without mercy, and the qualification for bereavement pensions will be revoked;"

"The fifth military rule, whether it is peacetime or a soldier, it is not allowed to rape ** women, and there will be no forgiveness for violators."

When all the sergeants in the audience heard these five points, they couldn't help but whisper, and the soldiers who were trapped in the camp reacted the least, after all, they themselves have strict military regulations.

The other border troops, the rebel army and the county soldiers had a great response, their previous military discipline was far worse, except for the prohibition of rape of ** women, nothing else was required to do so. However, listening to Gao Shun's words full of murderous intent, no one dared to jump out to oppose it without opening his eyes.

After announcing the five major military regulations, Gao Shun re-invited Lu Bu to continue speaking. "If there is a mistake, there will be a punishment, there will be a reward, after talking about the military regulations, I will talk about the reward, I and the military adviser and General Gao Shun have been deliberating for a long time, and finally formulated a set of military merit reward system, which will be promulgated and implemented after the exercise, and will be implemented in the next war."

Lu Bu looked around, "It is roughly divided into 20 levels of military merit, including 10 levels of military merit rewards for soldiers and 10 levels of military merit rewards for officers. “

"Each ministry will set up a special clerk to record military merits and mistakes in a unified manner, and reward and punish meritorious service. A soldier who has made a tenth rank of military merit can be promoted directly to junior officer, regardless of his background; Officers who have made military merits of the tenth rank can be promoted to generals, and there will be heavy rewards. ”

As soon as Lu Bu's words fell, the audience was in an uproar, whether it was a trap camp or a border army or a county soldier, or even a Huns, they had never heard that a soldier who had made military achievements could directly become an officer, which made countless low-level soldiers and officers in the audience excited, and their blood boiled.

Lu Bu was very satisfied with the response from the audience, and this was what he wanted.

"The specific military merit standards will be announced in detail later, but today, we will first award the reward for this campaign action for the thousands of miles to attack Zhao Xincheng."

"Let me first explain that all the participants will be rewarded, including the Jin Il-yan and Kim Iloka who surrendered later, as well as the personnel who stayed behind in the old camp in the rear, and even the craftsman battalion, as well as the logistics support personnel, and all the horses borrowed before will be settled at the market price."

Everyone in the audience cheered and heard that everyone had a reward, and all the people who came from the old camp of Jiuyuan, even the Huns such as Jin Riyan and Jin Rigang also cheered.

"In this battle, our army created a great miracle, that is, no one was killed, 53 people were wounded, of which 15 lost their ability to fight, and three lost their ability to work."

"To this end, I declare that my subordinates will set up a Les Invalides, in which the soldiers who are incapacitated will live in the Invalides and be supported by the army until the day of the teacher,"

"Soldiers who have lost their ability to fight but are still able to work are arranged by the government and the army for suitable jobs, and the families of all servicemen who are unable to continue serving in the army have pensions, and military merit rewards are calculated separately."

"Those who were wounded on the battlefield, but were able to continue to serve in the army after recovering from their injuries, will be admitted to the newly established honorary unit as a token of appreciation."

"In the future, once someone dies in battle, in addition to a generous pension, his children will be raised by the government or the army, the men will continue to join the army, and the women will arrange work, and the soldiers who fight for the country will never shed blood and tears, and the government will set up a special department to be responsible for the pension work."

"Okay, great, thank you, General, thank you, Lord Lu Bu!" The soldiers and people in the audience applauded from the bottom of their hearts again, who doesn't want their families to get preferential treatment after they die in battle, now Lu Bu even cares about his children, and he has someone to take care of when he is disabled, what else is there to say, if he doesn't kill the enemy well, he is sorry for Lord Lu Bu, who loves soldiers like children.
