Xu Shu and Dong Ju glanced at each other and nodded in unison.

Then Xu Shu asked: "Lord, is it true that the military marquis of the song corresponding to the brigade must be changed to the brigade commander, and the captains and horses of each department must also be changed to division commanders and deputy division commanders?" ”

Wei Yan nodded: "That's right, Qu's military marquis sounds like a conflict with the military-level commander and commander, cancel; The lieutenants and commanders of the ministry were also abolished, because the imperial court set up many positions of captains and captains, which were very complicated, and the middle and lower ranks were often not clear. Moreover, I am ready to implement the military rank system within our army, and from now on, within our army, the lieutenant and the colonel will no longer be military positions, but military ranks. ”

When he arrived here, Wei Yan had a hunch that there would be some stubborn and self-righteous people who would make irresponsible remarks about the military rank system.

He sneered in his heart, Do you think that the military rank system that I Wei Yan wants to set up should be copied as it was during the harmonious period of the 21st century? That's too much to underestimate my Wei Yan. The military rank system that I Wei Yan wants to set up is definitely born in the Eastern Han Dynasty and based on the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Xu Shu and Dong Ju looked at Wei Yan with puzzled eyes: "Military rank? What is Military Rank? ”

At that time, Wei Yan stood on the wall of Yiyang New Town, looking at the tens of thousands of soldiers who were resting.

From the reverent eyes of those soldiers, Wei Yan suddenly felt that his biggest reliance on dominating the Three Kingdoms in the future was not a big family, nor a poor family, but his biggest reliance was on these bitter soldiers, and it was only by relying on their guns that he could calm the world.

The support of those big families or the landlords of the Hanmen Shu clan is purely icing on the cake, and it does not play a fundamental role, and the group that they really want to woo, unite, please, and ensure their interests even if they sacrifice other interests is the military group, and their fortune is different from any one of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan, and he is a warlord of the grass king, and he does not rely on the army.

Thinking of this, Wei Yan's heart swelled with incomparable pride: "Wars are frequent, and the old tradition of hereditary military positions based on family origin is doomed to disappear, and replaced by a new system of obtaining officer positions according to military merits.

However, those officers who were selected from poor civilian backgrounds did not have titles to mark their personal status, and their honor, status, and treatment were not recognized, so they couldn't raise their heads in front of the big families, just like me before, they felt inferior to them in front of Yuan Shao, and I no longer allow this kind of thing to happen!

From this day forward, I will establish a rank corresponding to the rank of those officers of civilian origin, to affirm that their status is equal to or even superior to that of the hereditary nobles!

I let people all over the world understand that the rank of a soldier is an honor, a right, much better than family origin, and what is respected is that military merit is a battle record, and it is no longer a bullshit ancestral family! ”

Dong Ju's face turned pale, and he forcibly persuaded: "The lord said that those officers do not have titles to mark their personal identities, this is not true, don't we have knighthoods in the Han Dynasty?" The first level is called the public scholar, the second is made, the three hairpins are curled, the four are not changed, the five doctors, the six official doctors, the seven public doctors, the eight public doctors, the nine five doctors, the ten left long, the eleventh right long, the twelve left more, the thirteenth middle one, the fourteenth right one, the fifteenth less on the building, the sixteenth on the building, the seventeenth car chief, the eighteen chief of the seventeenth car, the eighteenth chief of the house, the nineteenth pass of the inner marquis, and the twenty liehous. ”

Wei Yan looked in the direction of Luoyang and said indignantly: "Except for Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian and a few others who were knighted for their military merits, what else are the other officers who have been knighted?" Emperor Ling sold his official beard, who did he give the title sold, all of them were rich and powerful families, and when he got to this step, the title was basically equivalent to the ancestral family, and almost all of the civilian generals who shed their blood for the Han were forgotten! ”

Speaking of this, Wei Yan shook his head and said to himself: "I, Wei Yan, am a martial artist, with no reputation, unable to control the government and politics, and unable to control the unreasonable unhealthy tendencies in the world. Once a number of disparate armies are to cooperate with each other, they are commanded by the highest rank; Third, it can enhance the sense of responsibility of soldiers, and soldiers with military ranks will naturally be more attentive than soldiers without military ranks if they are worthy of the military rank on their shoulders.

Moreover, the establishment of the military rank system, there are also ancient books for reference, "Zhou Li-Xia Guan Sima" once said, "A hundred people are pawns, and the chief of the pawns are all sergeants." Twenty-five people were two, and both Sima were sergeants. Five people are in a team, and they all have strengths. The sergeants and sergeants inside look like knighthoods, but they actually play a role in the ranks. ”

Wei Yan's words clearly reached the ears of the hundreds of generals present, most of these generals were from civilian backgrounds, and they were all thunderous when they heard Wei Yan say this, and they were grateful to Dai De and more loyal to Wei Yan when they thought about them so carefully.

Wei Yan then announced the military rank system: "There are five military ranks: soldier, samurai, captain, captain, and general.

The ranks are divided into quasi-soldiers, column soldiers, middle soldiers, upper soldiers, and great soldiers, and there are no epaulettes on their clothes, only embroidered with accurate, column, middle, upper, and large characters;

The ranks are divided into quasi-samurai, column samurai, middle samurai, upper samurai, and great samurai, and the clothes are embroidered with iron sword stars on horse shoulders;

The rank of lieutenant is divided into quasi-lieutenant, lieutenant, lieutenant, lieutenant, and grand lieutenant, and his clothes are embroidered with leopard shoulders and bronze sword stars;

The school rank is divided into quasi-captain, lieutenant lieutenant, lieutenant colonel, colonel lieutenant, and senior colonel, and the clothes are embroidered with lion shoulders and silver sword stars;

The ranks are divided into quasi-generals, column generals, lieutenant generals, generals, and generals, and the clothes are embroidered with tiger shoulders and gold sword stars. ”

At that time, Chen Zhi immediately asked a question: "Will the positions originally appointed by the imperial court such as captains, captains, lieutenant generals, and generals be abolished?" ”

Wei Yan shook his head: "The original appointment will not be canceled, and those appointed by the imperial court now and in the future will not be affected by this military rank, because it is a military position given by the imperial court, we are discussing the military rank, which is used internally in our army, and the two do not correspond to each other, what really corresponds is our internal military rank and internal military rank, these are all internal matters, please don't disclose it to the outside world." ”

Xu Huang asked again: "How to determine the military position, how to determine the military rank, please make it clear to the lord." ”

Wei Yan smiled: "Gongming, don't worry, these are the questions I am going to talk about soon." First of all, determine the internal military position, this is very simple, for example, you turned out to be a lieutenant of the ministry, which is the external military position that was reported to the imperial court and let other princes know, and the real corresponding internal military position of the Wei army is the commander of the fourth division of the first army of the Wei army, and so on. ”

Zhang Liao nodded: "The last general understands, so how to determine our military rank?" ”

Wei Yan replied: "The internal military rank is related to the military rank, and each military rank corresponds to the third-class military rank.

The commander corresponds to the samurai, middle samurai, and upper samurai,

The two chiefs correspond to the samurai, the great samurai, and the brigadier lieutenant.

The captain corresponds to the brigadier lieutenant, the lieutenant lieutenant, and the lieutenant lieutenant,

The battalion commander corresponds to the lieutenant lieutenant, the captain, and the lieutenant of the major,

The brigade commander corresponds to the lieutenant, brigadier, lieutenant colonel,

The division commander corresponds to the lieutenant colonel, colonel, and colonel,

The commander corresponds to the colonel, brigadier general, and general.

The rank of the deputy is one rank lower than that of the main position. ”
