Chapter 22: Institutional Change

After the end of the exercise, it was naturally a grand reward meeting, only to see that at dusk, the cold wind hit, and the pork, flour and other ingredients that had already been sent over were made into fragrant broth and vermicelli, and the soldiers drank it in their mouths and warmed their hearts.

For the soldiers, in addition to hoping for a future in the army, they also hope to have a full stomach, and when the stomach is full, the soldiers can have enough passion and sacrifice their lives to fight on the battlefield.

I saw five or six soldiers gathered around a fire in the barracks, drinking broth and whispering happily.

"Today is the first time I've seen Childe"

"Me too, what Childe said today, really what did people do??"

"Blood-boiling"

"Yes, yes, that's it, Childe is Childe, although Captain Jiao treats us very well, but I feel that compared to Childe, there is always something missing, although I don't know what it is, but it is very important, anyway, he just said this, I am willing to follow him all the time"

Several others nodded their heads, and they felt the same way.

"Haha, that's the momentum of the superior" I saw a middle-aged man wearing armor with a hint of majesty on his face walking slowly to them, smiling and saying loudly.

After seeing it clearly, the soldiers hurriedly stood up respectfully.

The middle-aged man waved his hand, sat in the middle of them, and said with a smile: "Childe, is one of the sons-in-law of the lord, now the lord has unified the four continents, and it is likely to unify the world, even if the prince is not the prince, then he is also a prince, and the supreme nobility and majesty that he was born with is far beyond the reach of us, not to mention you, the captain does not dare to pant loudly in front of the prince, so you will have such a feeling of worship."

"Oh! So that's the case, or is it so well-informed, as soon as we say it, we know" The soldiers suddenly came to their senses.

After the middle-aged man smiled, his expression was a little more serious, "Everyone must work hard in the future, the military marquis said that he will register the list of personnel tomorrow, this list is the certificate of your promotion in the future, as long as you have made military achievements in the future, you will be the first to be promoted, brothers, we must not let down Childe, we are his first batch of subordinates, representing his face, if the future is pulled down by the recruits behind, it is not only that you lose face, but also slap Childe's face, this is a very serious problem"

Hearing this, a bald strong man immediately stood up, and said with a sinister face: "Shi Chang, you can rest assured, we will let those who come after know that we rely on our own strength to get the preferential treatment of the son."

"Yes, Childe cares so much about us, we will never fail him"

"Who dares to disrespect the son, Lao Tzu will cut him first"

The other soldiers were also murderous one by one, and although they were full of swear words, they did show their respect and love for Yuan Xi.

Seeing this scene, the middle-aged man immediately nodded with satisfaction.

In addition to here, there were also such conversations in many other places, either the army commander, or the chief, and the soldiers were not only said to be high-spirited, but also more and more loyal to Yuan Xi.

In the center of the barracks, in a huge luxury tent specially placed, Yuan Xi sat alone on the desk, his eyes flashed with thought, and his fingers lightly tapped on the tabletop, making a clicking sound.

At this time, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and Jiao Touch and Yuan Ping appeared in front of them.

"Childe, the fifth son's method is really amazing, the soldiers are not only passionate, but also more and more loyal to you" After Jiao Fu finished speaking with excitement on his face, he looked at Yuan Ping with admiration.

"Captain Jiao has won the award," Yuan Ping smiled and said modestly.

The reason why there are so many chiefs tonight, and the sudden dispatch of the Wu Commander, is specially arranged by Yuan Ping and Jiao Touch, just because these people are the people who have the closest relationship with the soldiers below and are also the most familiar with them, and what they say is more acceptable to the soldiers.

Yuan Xi's fingers tapping on the table slowly stopped, and his face was calm and a little scary.

"Childe, what's wrong with you?" Jiao Touch was puzzled.

"Second brother, did I do something wrong" A trace of worry flashed on Yuan Ping's face.

Yuan Xi shook his head, slowly stood up, and sighed: "Fifth brother, you are not wrong, but you reminded me"

"Reminder?" Yuan Ping was surprised.

"Throughout the ages, all dynasties and generations have had many phenomena of self-respect, why is this? It's because the soldiers below don't know who they're serving at all, so once the generals above have a change in their hearts, they will be immediately driven, causing a huge disaster," Yuan Xi said very seriously.

Yuan Ping and Jiao Touch were stunned for a moment, not understanding why Yuan Xi suddenly said this.

Yuan Xi ignored it and continued to himself: "Therefore, various dynasties and generations often set up the post of supervising the army and restricting the rights of the generals who lead the troops, but the effect is actually very small, because the supervising army is not in charge of the military, and those generals are really determined to rebel, but they still can't stop it."

"Fifth brother, do you still remember what you said in your military treatise that generals at all levels change positions, and they don't recognize generals until they sit until they don't recognize the generals, and they don't know the soldiers?"

Yuan Pingping was shocked, and nodded hurriedly, "Of course my brother remembers, but second brother, this is a strategy that will be adopted after the world is peaceful, and now there are a total of 1,542 soldiers in the Iron Guard Battalion, so there is no need at all."

"No, it's necessary, it's necessary, but it's not the top, it's the most fundamental, the lowest level of soldiers to start to solve it, and we need to make a radical change in the system" Yuan Xi's eyes flashed with a decision.

Yuan Ping's pupils shrank, and a certain possibility came to mind in his mind, but there were indeed some vagueness.

"I intend to set up a political commissar"

Yuan Xi suddenly announced loudly and sonorously, the two of them trembled in front of the shock, Yuan Ping's unintentional move made him suddenly sound thousands of years later, the epoch-making great man said that the branch was built on the company, and the party commanded the gun This famous sentence that changed the course of the world was fundamentally solved.

"Commissar?" A trace of doubt flashed on Jiao Touch and Yuan Ping's faces, they had never heard of such a name.

"The main goal of the political commissar is to control the minds of the soldiers, I decided to divide them into one to five levels of members, the lowest five members are assigned in the team, the fourth level of members are assigned to the first level of Qu, and the third level of members are assigned to the lieutenant level, and then in turn, the political commissar participates in military operations, but has no decision-making power, their main task is to tell the soldiers below whether they are loyal to it, and at the same time to boost morale, and fully implement the above policies" Yuan Xi explained loudly, due to the different times, so he made a slight change, But the purpose is still the same.

Hearing these words, Jiao Touch was still a little confused, but Yuan Ping was already shocked and said in disbelief: "Big brother is wise, if you really do this step and make the necessary adjustments, it will completely solve the self-respect of supporting the army for thousands of years, and you have reached the emperor of the world."

Yuan Xi smiled slightly, did not agree, did not deny, in fact, this system also has a huge drawback in ancient times, that is, communication problems, no telegraph, no telephone, everything depends on manpower, and many things will be delayed by distance, but although there are problems, but by doing so, at least to a great extent, it can avoid the situation of supporting troops and self-respect, which is enough.

"That being said, but it is still quite difficult to really build a perfect system, so it is necessary to have a person who is fully civil, military, wise and brave" After Yuan Xi finished speaking, he looked directly at Jiao Touch.

Jiao Touch's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly waved his hand, "Childe, don't look for me, I haven't understood yet."

Yuan Xi smiled slightly, looked at Yuan Ping, who was contemplating, and shouted softly: "Fifth brother"

Yuan Ping's face was shocked, looking at the slightest expectation in Yuan Xi's eyes, a trace of hesitation flashed on his face, although he knew that the power of this position would definitely be huge in the future, but he still wanted to lead the troops more than to do such a job to win people's hearts, but he also knew in his heart that Yuan Xi had no other people to use now.

"Second brother, I'll come," Yuan Ping said helplessly.

"Haha, fifth brother, I know you're not here, but don't worry, once there is a suitable candidate, I will pull you out" Yuan Xi promised with satisfaction.

Hearing this, Yuan Ping suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"This matter must be kept secret, now we are only more than 1,000 people, so the main thing is to set up a platform, train some seed personnel, and really carry out it on a large scale, we must wait until we arrive in Youzhou and have our own territory before it can be officially carried out, understand?" Yuan Xi instructed, after all, if someone with a heart detects it, it will definitely cause huge trouble.

"Understood, second brother" Yuan Ping nodded in understanding.

"Okay, then let's discuss the specific things to pay attention to."

"Second brother, I think that in addition to having a certain amount of insight and eloquence, the more important thing is that they themselves must have a firm belief in this matter."

"Yes, do you have any good suggestions?"

"Childe, although I don't understand it yet, I have to specify clearly whether the commander of the army is a general or a political commissar."

"Zhongsheng said well, this must not be sloppy"

In this way, Yuan Xi and his two most trusted and loyal subordinates carefully discussed the establishment and imagination of the political commissar in the tent, until it was not over for a long time, and the oil lamp in the tent seemed to burn all night
