Text Chapter 30 Discipline
What did Wen Huanzhang say that made Gu Haotian vigilant?
It turned out that at the end of last year, when Wen Huanzhang went to Liangshan to settle the displaced people, he received a complaint from several craftsmen, saying that some New Year's goods prepared by the family, such as bacon and lavender sausages, were stolen and eaten. These craftsmen belong to skilled workers in the mountains, and their salaries are better, and their families are relatively well-off, so they have prepared some New Year's goods.
Later, after investigation, it was a guard named Zhang Gouzi under Du Qian who brought a few people to do it. He ordered these people to make reparations and apologize before they were calmed down.
"The embankment collapsed in the anthill, the military discipline is not strict, how can the army be strong, now the number of guards on the mountain has increased, and the personnel are mixed, Haotian, you have to plan early."
Gu Haotian's heart was also heavy when he heard it, that Zhang Gouzi, he had the impression that he should have led the way for him to surrender in Heisongling, so he didn't remember his mistakes and stayed, but he didn't expect that he still has a bandit now.
And in the area of military discipline, he actually thought about it a long time ago, and he had always emphasized the people in the Gujiazhuang Guards, and the effect was also good, and he rarely asked directly about the two teams from Liangshan Water Army and Heisongling, and he didn't expect this thing to happen. At present, there are nearly 600 guards on the mountain, and the next step will definitely be more and more, and oral education can no longer be satisfied, and it is imperative to formulate military discipline.
But Gu Haotian was really not an expert in ancient military discipline, but fortunately, Wen Huanzhang was an expert in this area, so he asked him to draft the military discipline of the Liangshan Guard.
That night, he took Bian Xiang to Du Qian and Song Wan's residence. Du and Song changed careers to manage logistics, it seems that the task is lighter, but in fact the responsibility is heavier, and this time the eighty team members selected by the two of them were selected from the team members who came from Heisongling.
Du Qian and Song Wan were surprised to see that the little official had just met the two of them yesterday, and they were surprised to visit overnight today.
"According to what Mr. Wen said, Zhang Gouzi and others stole people's belongings during the year, but is it true?"
"It is true that there is such a thing, and it is also because of the lax discipline on weekdays, and at that time, compensation was made according to the price and an apology." The two of them were relieved when they heard what the little official said.
"Do you two brothers, why do I entrust you with such an errand as logistics that is related to the overall situation of Liangshan?" Gu Haotian looked at his expression and knew that the two of them did not pay attention.
"Please show me the little official." Seeing Gu Haotian's solemn expression, the two of them also muttered in their hearts.
"What I value is the two loyal and reliable, calm and old people, Bian Xiang, Ma Qiang, they are still young and unstable I dare not use, and such a critical place, if a group of people who steal chickens and dogs are used to take care of it, what is the difference between the prison and the prison self-theft, just say that the wine workshop, if someone can't resist the temptation, and has a bad heart, you know how much of a disaster it is."
At this time, the two of them already understood the intentions of the little official, and their hearts were heavy, thinking that the little official valued them so much, and if there was really any mistake at that time, it would be impossible to redeem death.
At this time, Song Wan suddenly thought of something, and even more cold sweat came down.
"Little official, Du Qian brothers, I-I damn it, Zhang Gouzi's guy looked for me last night and said, they are all brothers from Black Pine Ridge, happy and comfortable together, I ate two good words from him, I was fascinated by ghosts, and I kept it privately when I chose someone." It turned out that after the two came back last night, they went to choose someone, and Zhang Gouzi heard the news and went to ask Song Wan for good, and Song Wan agreed without thinking deeply.
There was such a thing, Gu Haotian and Du Qian were both a little shocked. At that moment, he took the personnel roster of the logistics department and checked it, and he didn't want to except for Zhang Gouzi, two of the five people who stole together were also there, and after a careful comparison, it was found that there were nearly 20 people who had experience as bandits. The three of them gasped, and Du and Song were even more afraid.
"These people are from the beginning of Black Pine Ridge, you two are with you, and your temperament and temper are only touched by you, and you will ponder it carefully tonight, if you can't know the roots, they will be sent to the teaching team for retraining." The two hurriedly agreed.
This night, Du Qian and Song Wan stayed up all night, and the list of eighty people was filtered countless times, and in the end only fifty people remained. Waiting outside Gu Haotian's room early the next morning, Gu Haotian also thought about it all night, and finally decided to transfer ten old guards from Ma Qiang's teaching team to the logistics department as the backbone.
The matter of the logistics department made Gu Haotian more anxious about the urgency of the establishment of military discipline, and as soon as breakfast passed, he went to Wen Huanzhang. Unexpectedly, there was already a stack of neatly written drafts of the military discipline of the escort team on the master's desk, and he knew at a glance that this person had actually been prepared. I calmed down and read it carefully, and found that its content was mainly based on the ancient army's "Seventeen Laws and Fifty-four Beheadings", combined with some military laws of the Zhou Dynasty. There are many entries in military discipline, and the words are relatively esoteric, and with the quality of the current guards, it may be difficult to understand and memorize them.
Wen Huanzhang saw that Gu Haotian was silent for a long time, and felt a little strange in his heart, he had also carefully pondered these military discipline provisions, and he thought that they were still good.
"Haotian thought it was ......"
"The military discipline drafted by Mr. Dacai is good, but the disciples feel that the entries are too numerous, the text is more profound, and most of our guards are illiterate, so it may be difficult for them to fully understand."
"This-" Wen Huanzhang didn't think of this question, "What does Haotian think?" ”
"The disciple thinks that military discipline should be familiar and supported by every soldier, and turn it into conscious action, which is the highest level."
"Of course, this is the best, but in all dynasties, and when the country was founded in troubled times, military discipline was a little stricter, and I didn't hear that the team was united in their efforts to consciously defend military discipline."
"Why not, the Red Army is the ......" Gu Haotian blurted out the team of the later generations, and immediately realized that something was wrong and immediately stopped.
"What kind of troops is the Red Army?" Wen Huanzhang thought about it for a while, as if he hadn't heard of it.
"Red Army, I saw it in a booklet that my disciple accidentally found in my father's study." Gu Haotian began to talk nonsense, but his heart was extremely excited, because he thought of the famous military discipline of the Red Army, so he continued, "It is said that there is a country in the far west of overseas, and its founding king led an extremely weak army, relying on an iron military discipline, and finally overthrew the old court and established a new dynasty. ”
"Oh, there is such a thing, but I don't know what kind of magical military discipline it is."
"This military discipline disciple was curious at the time, and it was extremely simple, but he also wrote it down." After speaking, Gu Haotian recited the famous "three disciplines and eight attentions" of the army in later generations.
"The three disciplines are: obey the command in all actions; do not take a stitch from the people; All seizures shall be returned to the public. The eight points of attention are: first, speak kindly; the second is fair trading; the third is to repay the borrowed things; Fourth, the damage should be compensated; fifth, do not beat or scold people; Sixth, do not damage the crops; Seventh, do not molest women; Eighth, do not mistreat prisoners. ”
Wen Huanzhang originally thought it was some kind of profound classic, but when he heard it, there were only eleven sentences, nearly 100 words, and all of them were in the vernacular, but he was not convinced. He secretly compared his military discipline with it, but found that many of the articles he had painstakingly listed seemed to be covered in these short eleven sentences of military discipline. The single sentence "all actions are subject to command" includes many contents such as the rebellious army, the slow army, the formed army, the light army, the back army, the ruthless army, the wrong army, the chaotic army, and the slanderous army. The more he thought about it, the more shocked he became, and the more he admired, this monarch was really talented, and such a complex military discipline was integrated by him so simple and easy to understand. But he was a wise man after all, and immediately thought of the shortcomings.
"This military discipline is good, and it is convenient to pass it on to the military, but it seems too simple to rely on it as the basis for military promotion and punishment."
"Mr. is a great talent, and the disciples also think that this discipline can be used for teaching, and it is necessary to set up detailed provisions for law enforcement accordingly, so that the internal and external correspondingness can get twice the result with half the effort."
On this day, the master and apprentice buried their heads in Wen Huanzhang's residence to scrutinize the military discipline of the guards, Wen Huanzhang was very proficient in the military discipline of the dynasty and before, Gu Haotian had the experience and opinions of later generations, the two expressed their own views, learned from each other's strengths, sometimes argued, sometimes compromised. For example, Gu Haotian proposed that corporal punishment should be reduced in the treatment of disciplinary violations, and the method of confinement could be adopted, but Wen Huanzhang couldn't think of what effect the black room could have after being closed for a period of time, so he objected, and finally Gu Haotian made a suggestion, saying that tomorrow let the master try to confine it for a day, and if it has no effect, it will be canceled, Wen Huanzhang agreed without thinking about it.
From morning to dusk to late at night, the master and apprentice stayed in the room without leaving an inch, and finally settled on a rough outline, the details of which were to be slowly refined later.
The next day, Gu Haotian asked the craftsman to make a black room, Wen Huanzhang came to see it, and he didn't think there was anything special but it was a little smaller, and he saw a small window on the side, and he listened to the explanation that it was for sending food, and he didn't want to have food to eat, so he was even more disdainful.
"When will the master try it?" Gu Haotian was anxious to watch a good show.
"What's the fear of starting now." Wen Huanzhang completely ignored it.
"It's already afternoon, and I can't come out until tomorrow afternoon, and it's cold at night, so why don't you try it during the day tomorrow."
"Hugh has to shut up." Wen Huanzhang turned around and instructed his entourage to get the quilt, and got into it.
"Master, you can live in peace, and I will bring food on time." Gu Haotian smiled and left.
One day can be said to be a flash for Gu Haotian, but for Wen Huanzhang, it is like a lifetime. In the cramped confinement cell, whether standing, lying down, or reclining, the body cannot be straightened anyway. The space is extremely compressed, the spirit is extremely depressed, there is no time and space, only darkness and fear.
The moment the door opened, he only felt that there were white flowers in front of him, and it took a while to see the disciple in front of him who was smiling all over his face, but no matter how he looked at it, he looked like he was smiling evilly.
"How does the master feel?" Gu Haotian couldn't hold back his laughter when he thought that the first person in confinement was Master Wen.
"What can I do." Wen Huanzhang flicked his sleeves angrily and just left. It's just that after that, he no longer questioned the measure of confinement, but became addicted to the use of this measure, and many people suffered.
