813 Korean volunteers

"Get out, go back to your Qi country. Hahaha. Seeing the Qi army retreating in a hurry, the Qin army shouted happily.

",." The soldiers of the Qin army shouted loudly.

"Enough. Shut up. The officer of the Qin army scolded with some annoyance.

"The enemy is not something we have repelled, what are we happy about." The officer of the Qin army said loudly.

Hearing this, all the soldiers of the Qin Army were silent. They thought the officer was right. It is true that the enemy was not repelled by them. However, the soldiers of the Qin army were a little puzzled, and the soldiers of the Qin army did not understand who lit the ammunition depot of the Qi army.

"Did you say it was a bomb dropped by a plane in the sky?" A private of the Qin Army asked.

"It's impossible, the plane can fly over in this weather. It's still night. It is impossible for an airplane to take off in the dark. One veteran replied.

"Yes." Private nodded.

"However, it is also possible that we have our own planes, and we are not guarding an airfield, isn't it?" Private asked.

"Yes, it's the airport. However, the runway was occupied by the Qi army. Can it fly? The veteran of the Qin Army replied.

"That's right." Private Qin Jun said.

"Don't think about it so much." The veteran said.

"This kind of thing is what the officers think, and they understand it, so let's wait quietly." The veteran said.

And this kind of thing is also an unsolved mystery for the officers. The besieged Qin army had been cut off from communication for a long time. The Qin army was still unable to restore contact, and in this case, they had no way of knowing what was really going on in the outside world. It was their own people who came to reinforce it. Or did the air power provide some massive fire support. They don't know any of these things.

There is no one to pass new messages to them. The officer knew nothing about information from the outside world. The inability to restore contact with the outside world made the officers passively wait in the face of such a situation.

What is going on with the ammunition depot of the Qi army is still a mystery for the besieged Qin army. And for the Qi army, it is also a mystery, they do not know why their ammunition depot exploded. And who is the opponent. They don't know at all. They can only wait. The cause could only be ascertained after all the ammunition in the ammunition depot had been depleted by the fire. And that opponent was quietly watching all this from a place where the outside world could not even notice.

Just when the Qin army was waiting for the situation. Qi Jun found out the reason. When the raging fire ignited by the ammunition depot of the Qi army lit up the sky. South Korea, the first large-scale recruitment of soldiers is underway.

"You're also going to be a soldier?" A South Korean army recruiting office in Xinzheng. A young Korean man said to another young man.

"Yes, I'm going to be a soldier too." The young man said.

"You're not doing a good job in a factory. What are you doing as a soldier? Another young man asked.

"It's good work in the factory. The boss over there is going to promote me to be the head of the production line. The young man said.

"Yes, but the Queen has published a recruitment advertisement in the newspapers. Call on our good young people in Korea to serve the country. Such an opportunity to serve the motherland, how could you miss that. The young man said.

"Oh. That's right. Another young man nodded. Actually, he thinks that this young man is not as good as he said. What to serve the country and so on. Actually, I joined the army for myself.

The South Korean Queen's recruitment advertisement was based on Jang Yang's demand that the people not be harmed. And it was the volunteers who were drafted. In other words, it is all voluntary to be a soldier or not. This kind of volunteer soldier was proposed by Zhang Liang with reference to the conscription system of the Qin State and the conscription system of the Wei State.

The Qin State implemented a national compulsory conscription system. As long as the state gives a mobilization order. The Qin State could quickly recruit a large army. In the Qin State, everyone could fight. Plus weapons are becoming more and more advanced. Even women can join the battlefield. But such a huge system of conscription. Not for South Korea. Especially huge military spending. It will drain the South Korean bottom that has just been accumulated. This is simply not an option. And it is useless for South Korea to recruit so many soldiers. On the contrary, the more troops are recruited. will get the suspicion of the Qin State. This is becoming more and more disadvantageous to South Korea.

Wei's conscription system was based on voluntary and compulsory conscription. Volunteerism was an important source of large numbers of Wei hoplites. Volunteers are more motivated to fight than conscripts. This is also one of the important reasons for the rapid rise of Wei in the early Warring States period. As for compulsory levy. South Korea has done the same before. As long as the country encounters war, as long as it is an adult man, all of them are recruited to go to war.

This is the obligation of all Korean men, and the state only provides weapons, food, and the rest is provided by itself. This is the practice of all the soldiers. As a result, the combat effectiveness of the South Korean army is generally not high.

Not only that, but the combat effectiveness of the Wei State was not as high as there. In particular, once Wei Wushu suffered a large number of losses, it would be difficult to organize a large army in a short period of time. In addition to the national standing army. The army that has been drafted in a short period of time lacks combat effectiveness. They have not been trained for a certain amount of time. Especially the organizational cooperation, none of this. As a result, soldiers are not familiar with weapons, let alone coordination between operations.

The Qin army was excepted. Because of the frequent outbreak of wars in the Qin army. The interval between the training of the mobilized forces of the state is relatively short, and most importantly, the soldiers are experienced in combat. Moreover, the reward system of the Qin State drove the soldiers to actively participate in the war.

Equally. In the two countries of Korea and Wei, the combat enthusiasm of the conscripted soldiers was also not high. It can be said that it is negative, and they not only have to pay a lot of taxes. After going to the battlefield at the same time. Exploits earned from capturing the enemy's head will not be promoted. According to the previous conscription system in South Korea. The nobility had a certain amount of armor, weapons, and chariots, so it was only natural that they became officers. And civilians. Then there are not so many armor, weapons. They could only become infantry by the weapons they were issued. As for the slaves. Its fate was even more tragic.

It is this strict hierarchical system. As a result, the combat effectiveness of the entire Korean army and the Wei army was very limited. Soldiers' enthusiasm for combat is generally not high. This directly led to the fact that the soldiers' will to fight was not strong enough. It is easy to collapse in the face of a strong enemy. The two countries were previously facing the aggressive offensive posture of the Qin army. I can only keep cutting the ground, cutting the ground. In exchange for the only living space and the time to live.

The shortcomings of this conscription system were discovered by Zhang Liang early. Now, the new army of South Korea is created. Naturally, the army could not be conscripted according to the original method.

"The widow wants to encourage the whole population to participate in the new army. However, it is feared that participating in the new army will harm the national strength. Therefore, the volunteer military system is adopted. The Queen wrote in her call-up advertisement. Korea relied on a new army to rebel and gain a new throne. At the same time, South Korea has embarked on a new large-scale transformation. This change is significant for South Korea. It also makes a great contribution to the future development of history.

The Korean New Army was modeled after the Qin Army. The officer broke the original aristocratic monopoly of the officer. Civilian. Slaves are not given a chance to be promoted, even if they have the chance. So. Under this utilitarian reward. and the temptation of promotion to official positions. Civilians are encouraged to participate in military combat. In this way, there will be a new injection of blood from top to bottom of the army, and the combat effectiveness of the army will gradually become stronger, although this will seriously damage the interests of the Korean aristocracy. But when the queen's position of power was established, it did not rely on the support of the nobility, but on the new army. Only by firmly controlling the control of the new army can the reign of the throne be stabilized.

"When you join the army, you don't have to pay personal income tax. You can also get a better salary than being a worker. And that's not all. If you are lucky enough to fight to establish meritorious service. There will also be opportunities for promotion to become an officer. Be an officer. It is equivalent to obtaining the status of a nobleman. At that time, what did others think of us. Think about it. A father persuaded his son to sign up for the army.

For a country like China that is inherited by the family and the glory of the family is above all else. Families who have such opportunities usually have to work hard in order to take advantage of them and gain a new social status. This kind of family inheritance is exactly what the Qin state hoped for after the reforms.

The Queen's recruitment advertisement achieved the results she wanted. The people of South Korea attach great importance to joining the army. Strong men from South Korea have come to sign up for the army.

"It's good to join the army, it's beautiful to join the army. You don't have to pay taxes to join the army. If you join the army, you can still become a master. A group of children sang at the registration desk. And all the young Korean men who came to sign up were indifferent to the children's lyrics. They care about whether they can be chosen.

"Why doesn't the queen recruit more points this time. More than 30,000 people were recruited. The number of people is simply too small. One of the young people who came to sign up complained to the other young people.

"yes. Oh, yes. Look ahead of us. There are hundreds of people, to say the least. I heard that there are several such conscription points in Xinzheng. There are a lot of people. It's a bit of a few. The young man said.

"No, I read it in the newspapers. The whole nation will be called. The quota of 30,000 people is easy to gather. Think about it, how many of us are in Korea. Let's say a few millions. Thirty thousand men were drafted. Alas! Seeing so many people. I don't think I can choose. The young man looked at the long line. Said with some dejection.

"Isn't it?" Young people also felt a little discouraged. After all, this is a national call-up. The number of recruits was only 30,000. With such a recruitment ratio, it is really difficult to be selected. But that's the way it is.

South Korea's new army also does not want to expand so many troops at once. More than double the number of troops at once. Combat effectiveness will decrease. And the financial resources provided by the state are not enough to support so many people to join the army. Eat, live, and be tax-free. The cost is significant. So. in the above considerations. The size of the Forces nouvelles has only doubled. From 30,000 to 60,000. The number of expansions is not very large.
