Chapter 52: The Head of the White Plum
Regarding the corruption reminded by Huang Hao, Liu Chan can only remind him first, and he can't take people directly, after all, there are already more than 200 vacancies in official positions, and if he takes people again, I'm afraid this decree will really not work.
In desperation, Liu Chan returned to the study and began to sort out the military materials in Shuzhong, and the army was the guarantee of everything in the troubled times.
The official position of the Shu State followed that of the Han Dynasty, and its military establishment also followed the Han Dynasty's establishment, and the military system was calculated by multiples of two and five. The most basic unit is the army, that is, there is a team commander for every five people; Two Wu Wei, one for every ten people; Five tithes for teams, one team rate for every fifty people; Two teams are one tun, and every 100 people have a tun chief; Two tuns are a song, and there is a military marquis for every two hundred people; Two songs into one, one for every four hundred people.
Usually every five divisions are a battalion, that is, an independent combat unit, usually commanded by a general or a lieutenant. The captain commanded 2,000 people to fight, which not only satisfied the flexibility, but also ensured a certain combat effectiveness, and the army structure improved by Emperor Wu in the process of frequent use of troops was not a big problem in Liu Chan's eyes, but there were great hidden dangers in the control of the army.
As Liu Chan first thought, the soldiers don't know the king, and they don't know who to fight for, which is undoubtedly a major hidden danger, in order to solve this drawback, Liu Chan can be regarded as a rare hard time to meditate for a long time, and finally have some ideas.
If you want to really control an army, relying on power is not a long-term solution, you can only implement thought control, only by controlling the thoughts of this army, this army will only be a sword in the hands of the emperor, and will not easily become a knife in the hands of others, as for successful cases, hehe, it is not nothing, such as Liu Chan's great leader who led the country to drive out the invaders in his previous life!
At that time, it can be said that every soldier knows who his leader is and who he is fighting for, and if you let them rebel in turn, then I'm sorry, it is estimated that not many people will follow you to rebel, the main reason for this effect is because there is a part of the people in charge of life and culture, any army, there is a military commander, and there is also a political commissar, one of the two is in charge of the military, and the other is in charge of life.
In addition to managing life, the political commissar also has a role, that is, to feed you chicken soup for the soul, to educate you politically, and to edify your soul, and the facts have also proved that the effect is very good, Liu Chan, who has a military career, has a deep understanding of this.
And Liu Chan also wanted to set up such an organization in the army, caring about the soldiers when they had nothing to do, doing ideological work for the soldiers, feeding them some chicken soup for the soul, and then controlling the army's thinking for Liu Chan and making them only loyal to themselves.
On paper, I finally feel shallow, I never know that this matter has to be done, it is not enough to have an idea, Liu Chan still needs to go to the army to actually investigate, you know, the emperor is not what he wants, this Liu Chan has already experienced.
As for the subjects of the investigation, it was natural that the new army of 3,000 people selected from the only forbidden army that was completely under Liu Chan's orders, and the task of monitoring the ministers was completed, and they were resting outside the city at this time.
Just as Liu Chan slowly got up and was about to leave the palace, an internal attendant moved a compact step and came to the study and said, "Your Majesty, General Chen of Pingbei is waiting outside the palace!" ”
"What do you say? Chen has arrived? Hearing this, Liu Chan was immediately overjoyed, Chen Zhi can be said to be one of the most capable generals buried by Romance, and some people even guessed that part of Zhao Yun's credit was Chen Zhi, of course, this is just a digression, and there is no way to verify.
But the evaluation of it in the history books is indeed not low, the expedition to the south is heavy, the expedition to the west is loyal, the selection of soldiers at the time of unification, the fierceness of the generals, it is said that it is Bai Yubing, and it is also said that Chen Zhizhi is loyal and brave, and his name is only inferior to Zhao Yun.
"General Chen is waiting for the edict outside the palace." The chamberlain replied.
"Quick!"
For Chen Dao, Liu Chan can be regarded as very eager to see, after all, there are only two people who are truly loyal to him now, Xiang Zhong and Guo Youzhi, and they are not biased in literature and martial arts, but this number is really less.
And although the military general is loyal to the favor, he is also a great talent for governing the army, but he is not a general for attacking, although Guo Youzhi is talented, but he is not very prominent in this troubled world, at least for now, Liu Chan thinks so.
Since Chen Zhi followed the ancestor Liu Bei in Yuzhou, he has fought dozens of large and small battles, and whenever Liu Bei participates in the command of the battle, Chen Zhi and his Bai Yu soldiers must accompany him.
Chen Zhi has been on the battlefield for a long time and has rich experience, and the key is that he is known for his loyalty and bravery, and loyalty and courage are naturally to the first emperor and His Majesty, not others.
In a moment, there was a crisp sound of armor colliding in the hall, a plain face, but there was no lack of majesty, thick eyebrows and sword eyes, people did not dare to look directly, the beard was a foot and a half long, and it was combed extremely neatly, adding a good beauty to it.
"Minister, meet Your Majesty!" Walking to the hall, I saw his hands clasped into fists, his demeanor respectful, and he slowly bowed.
"The general doesn't have to be polite! When I first ascended to the throne, my qualifications were still shallow, and I had no merits, and I couldn't oppress people with my identity to the ministers, let alone the generals. ”
"In the past, when the first emperor was the pastor of Yuzhou, the general followed the first emperor, and now there are twenty-nine years, over the years, the achievements are countless, I can not stand the general's gift, and the general is also quick and light." Liu Chan hurriedly said.
"There is a difference between monarchs and ministers, this is a more ancient truth!" Chen Zhigu performed the salute.
Looking at this respectful Chen Dao, Liu Chan couldn't help but think about it more than he was overjoyed, he was not arrogant, he was afraid that he was his favorite type in front of that emperor.
"I suddenly transferred the general to CD without consulting the general, the general won't blame me, right?" After Chen stood up, Liu Chan said.
Without a trace of reluctance, Chen Zhi said lightly: "The minister doesn't dare!" ”
Looking at Chen Dao, who didn't seem to be a fake in front of him, Liu Chan thought about it carefully, and finally got straight to the point: "General, I summoned you back just to let the general show his ambitions in front of me and help me!" I wonder if the general is willing? ”
Hearing this, a trace of surprise flashed on Chen Zhi's calm and usual face, which had never changed at all, but it was quickly hidden by it, and he immediately bowed to Liu Chan again: "The minister has always been loyal to Shu and His Majesty!" ”
"General, you know what I mean, this is not the answer I want." Hearing this prevarication, Liu Chan laughed instead of being angry.
Seeing Liu Chan like this, Chen Zhi felt a little helpless in his heart, knowing that His Majesty had to make his position clear.
After a pause, Chen Zhi spoke: "Dare to ask what is Your Majesty's ambition?" ”
"Ambition..."To talk about Liu Chan's ambition, as a traverser, he naturally wants to sweep the world, shock China, and live a dreamlike life of waking up to control the world and drunk on the knees of beautiful women.
But obviously it is not appropriate to say this at this time, the feelings of the ancients are always difficult to understand, a small detail is right, loyal to you for a lifetime, a small detail is not looked down on, and it will not follow you for the rest of your life.
