For the officials of Jingnan, their lord Li Sheng is definitely a wise and promising lord. Although the pen is young, but not impetuous, but decisive, but good at accepting people's words, no matter what to do, what kind www.biquge.info of decision, can first ask for everyone's opinions, and then make a final decision, and the decision will be carried out, so that the final result comes out. Although there are some big violations of common sense in personal hobbies, words and deeds, such as despising respect and inferiority, liking to play tricks on people, etc., these are just minor details, and they are not too much of a fault, and naturally they have not affected Li Sheng's views in the eyes of these people.

Of course, that's just a general thing. In fact, for those of them who are subordinates of others, Li Sheng, the lord, also has a headache for them. One of the biggest points is that this lord is too diligent enough, and he always pushes the problems that he needs to be in charge to solve to his subordinates. Although you can handle things clearly as your subordinates, you can ...... But this is not a violation. Don't talk about it, let's talk about it now. Facing the express order that had just been sent from Jiaozhou, Pang Tong, one of the three "chief managers" under Li Sheng, frowned deeply.

"The lord is really bold. I actually explained the matter like this. He didn't want to think about it, could we do it all by ourselves? It's like the emperor didn't want the jade seal and threw it to his subordinates. Pang Tong muttered in the smallest voice, no matter how shocking and secular what he said, he just sat on the ground with his legs spread and unsightly, and casually threw the order he had read directly on the desk in front of him, very dissatisfied.

"Hey, I said Shiyuan, you were muttering something here early in the morning." Someone was on the tip of his ear, although he couldn't hear Pang Tong's muttering clearly, but he did know that he was talking here, so a person turned out of the corridor outside the door, but it was Liao Li, the prime minister's political affairs.

"Muttering what? I'm annoyed. Pang Tong waved his hand, took out the small jar containing wine from his arms, gently patted it open, and poured a sip of wine directly into his abdomen, and his face that was originally tightly knotted finally showed a little happiness.

"Annoying? So what's going on? I've seen you spit out that word a long time ago. Let's talk about what's going on. Liao Li walked straight to the opposite side of Pang Tong, sat down unceremoniously, and looked at him with some ill will.

"Look at this." Pang Tong didn't say what happened, but just mentioned the order that had just been thrown on the case by himself and handed it directly in front of Liao Li. "My lord, you have brought us a great order." Pang Tong said with a bitter face.

"Oh? What command? Let me see! Liao Li was curious by Pang Tong's words, and took the thick order with dozens of pages of paper and read it. The two of them were silent for a while, and the hall was silent, only the rustling of pages and Liao Li's increasingly heavy exhalation sounded in this world.

The things explained in this book are really extraordinary, Liao Li only read half of it, and then he couldn't stand it anymore: "Isn't Kong Ming by the side of the lord?" Why didn't he persuade the lord? How could we, the courtiers, do such a big thing on our own? If we do this today, I am afraid that in the future some people will use us as an example of autocracy, and become autocratic, which will be detrimental to the great cause of the lord. As he spoke, he put down the order in his hand, and threw the weight of this one on the desk like Pang Tong, and became rude with anger. I saw that the order on the desk was written in four big red pen characters on the back of the cover: "Order to Rectify the Army."

Kong Ming is afraid that he also has his own plans. If we deny this, then we can just write to persuade us. However, the time limit in the book is quite tight, and we must hurry up and finish it immediately anyway. Pang Tongba looked at Liao Li and said: "Although this matter is mainly based on our military, it also needs your local support in some aspects. I have just read all the orders, and the lord has realized that our army is not enough in number at the moment, and I am planning to expand the army. Please pay attention to this matter. Although the conscription is the presence of military generals, it needs the cooperation of local officials and officials to achieve perfection, so Pang Tong has this saying.

"Understood." Liao Li nodded heavily, and then Pang Tong, who was a little distressed and a little resentful, said: "Now that the lord is the only one by his side, this Kong Ming is alone, if he has been talking about the lord like this, we are really passive." Alas, orders can be objected to, but they must be meticulously enforced before they are passed—the lord is a rule that really messes us up. As he spoke, Liao Li sighed heavily.

"Well, stop complaining. In fact, this rule set by the lord is not bad: it can minimize the power of opposition to orders, so that orders can be carried out smoothly. Alas, in fact, as an official, a general, or even a monarch, what I am most afraid of is that this order does not work. Pang Tong shook his head and said, his small eyes narrowed, giving people a feeling of being half-asleep and half-awake.

"I know that, too. But for now, this matter ......" Liao Li wanted to speak a little and finally stopped, "Anyway, I will write a letter to ask the lord to take back his fate, as for before the lord agrees to take it back, I will naturally not be superficial, and I will disobey yin and yang." Anyway, this matter is only done in cooperation with your army, and you are the one who is mainly busy. Shiyuan, you're going to be busy. Liao Li looked at Pang Tong and laughed. Listening to this laughter in Pang Tong's ears, it was like gloating on the sidelines.

"Go...... Go! Do you think these things can be hard for me? If it weren't for the fact that there are some places where the lord needs to be in charge to do this, why should I be sad here? Don't look at the complexity of this order, if I am put in charge of this matter, I am afraid that I will not wait for the lord to come back, and I will be able to solve the matter within a month. Seeing Liao Li laughing so "insidiously", Pang Tong suddenly became dissatisfied, he had a feeling of being looked down upon, and hurriedly patted his chest loudly and promised.

"Hehe, are you a bird after all?" Liao Li said with a grin, running out before Pang Tong could react. The so-called "little bird" is the nickname of Liao Li and Kong Ming for Pang Tong's nickname of "Phoenix Chick", which is used for usual fighting. As the most favored staff member in Li Sheng's army, they were all entrusted by Li Sheng with the task of commanding the affairs of one party: Liao Lizi was in charge of government affairs, while Pang Tong was in charge of tactical military orders, and Kong Ming was Li Sheng's strategic adviser. Although the three of them are in high positions, they have a good relationship with each other. Especially after Liao Li was put into Li Sheng's account, he was sharpened by Li Sheng for a few years, and he no longer had the initial problem of eyes above the top and thorns all over his body. He can cooperate well with Pang Tong, Kong Ming, Xu Shu, Ma Liang and other colleagues, and has a deep relationship with them in several years of communication. Jokes like this are normal in their eyes--everyone is brothers, so it's better to let them go.

"Go!" A flying shoe burst out of the door that Liao Li came out of, brushed his ear from behind Liao Li, and stirred up a fierce gust of wind, making him intuitively feel some hot pain on his face. He knew that it was not good, and he was going to flee quickly, after all, if he stayed where he was, he was afraid that he would be attacked by the roar that was almost comparable to the backward flow of the dangyang water drunk in the legend. Although he didn't quite know how Pang Tong practiced this roar, it was clear to everyone that this seemingly harmless military advisor had such a stunt. Sure enough, when he slipped out of the courtyard where Pang Tong was located at a speed of almost more than the speed of sound, a broken drink sounded behind him: "Back to the backwater pool, you give me back!" ”

In this regard, Liao Li shook his head, rubbed his ears that were faintly shocked, and muttered with palpitations: "Who will go back and let you roar." Unless I'm stupid! After that, he walked quickly without looking back.

*****

On June 15, the 14th year of Jian'an, Li Sheng issued an order, asking Pang Tong, who remained in Jingzhou, to consider the matter of reorganizing the army and expanding the army at his discretion. On 20 June, Pang Tong received a letter asking Li Sheng to postpone the reorganization of the army on the grounds that "the Lord is not there, and there is nothing to do." On 27 June, Li Sheng replied to Changsha and did not allow Pang Tong to invite him again, but resolutely handed over the matter of the reorganization and expansion of the army to Pang Tong's hands.

"It's useless or it's useless!" Facing the order sent back by Li Sheng, Pang Tong hurriedly read it, and there was nothing else to express except a wry smile. To be honest, he didn't want to take on such a burden, but now that the lord had already given such a death order, he couldn't take it.

I saw that on the one-foot-square white silk, hundreds of rope-sized characters were written in thin and dense manners, but it was black on a white background that explained the matter clearly: "...... Jun is my humerus. Since I am entrusted with military affairs, I naturally believe in the ability of the king, and I am responsible for the heavy responsibility of staying behind, and I am entrusted with the dictatorship. The matter of expanding the army and reorganizing the army can be done in conjunction with the relevant generals and local staff, so why do you have to be on my side? The relevant requirements and regulations have been clearly explained in the order, and you have to ask me to return to Jingzhou to do it, is it a gesture, or something else? ”

There are not many words, but they are both graceful and powerful, especially in the end. Although Pang Tong didn't take these words very seriously, he also understood that the time had come for a decision when he read this. Unless you want to leave, you can only be responsible for the reorganization of the Jingnan army according to what the lord's decree says.

"Forget it, just do it! In fact, this is also the lord's trust in me. Pang Tong whispered, quietly adjusted his mentality, and shrugged his shoulders slightly, perhaps while he was relaxed, he also felt the weight of the burden that Li Sheng pressed on him.

On the first day of the seventh month, Pang ordered all the generals, including Zhao Yun, the Taishou of Jiangling, to gather in Changsha City to discuss the reorganization of the army, except for a deputy who was left with the commander of the garrison. On the sixth day of the seventh month, everyone arrived, and Pang Tong held a meeting in the east hall of the Taishou Mansion to discuss the matter. After explaining the reason and purpose of this reorganization to the generals who had returned from various places, Pang Tong ordered people to publish more than a dozen copies of the order for the reorganization of the army, which had been copied by the Writing Office, so that these generals could read it so that they could listen to their opinions. Although many of these generals were illiterate, Pang Tong had already ordered that a clerk should be assigned to each of them to explain to them the general secretary of the order, so that they could understand what was going on with the whole army.

Li Sheng's army now numbered 100,000 people, which was the number including the Chibi troops who were taken prisoner. Considering the unstable morale of the newly surrendered army, generally speaking, Li Sheng's side did not count the 30,000 horses obtained from the Battle of Chibi in the number of his army. Therefore, when Li Shengfang called his people, he said that he had 70,000 people with armor. This is Li Sheng's real military strength, and it is also the strength that Li Sheng relied on to fight Cao Cao in Chibi and take the opportunity to seize Xiangyang and Jiangling. As far as outsiders are concerned, the number of troops they have detected is also this number -- in this regard, Li Sheng did not always hide his own troops, like the Jiangdong side, but openly revealed them.

If it is just a simple army reorganization, it will involve Li Sheng's 70,000 people as his military strength. However, due to the fact that at this moment, Li Shengnai added the word "expansion" to the whole army, so that Pang Tong and the generals had to take into account the soldiers who surrendered in the Battle of Chibi. After all, they were all soldiers, and although Pang Tong's side did not dare to play full of guarantees in terms of loyalty and morale, their strength and training as soldiers were much better than those recruits recruited by civilians. The generals, who were also seated with Pang Tong, seemed to prefer to bring these troops under their command.

Of course, there is no way to do this, after all, the actual combat experience of these soldiers in Li Sheng's army is incomparable. In fact, as Li Sheng, who stood side by side with Sun Quan and Liu Bei, almost all of the troops in his hands were young and capable recruits. Except for Gan Ning's navy, these people in Li Sheng's army did not have any experience in major battles before the Battle of Chibi, and not only that, but most of them were on the battlefield for the first time. If it weren't for the careful care of the three strongmen Li Sheng, Pang Tong, and Zhuge Liang, and the fact that the Battle of Chibi was completely a smooth battle fought by the other party, Li Shengjun, who was afraid that he would face such a big test when he went out of the battle, would have less than half of the number left after such a big fire. No matter how hard the training is, the difference between a recruit who has not been on the battlefield and a veteran who has already experienced the smoke of the war will always be heaven and earth. Even heaven and earth sometimes seem to be a thin line away.

The main force of Li Shengjun, that is, the 70,000 people, was mainly divided into two parts. One is the Changsha city defense force that is Li Sheng's Changsha Taishou, with a number of about 5,000; The other is the part of Li Sheng's self-reliance after becoming the Taishou of Changsha and his self-inflicted signs, about 65,000 people. Although at the beginning of Li Sheng's army, he considered that it was very difficult for recruits who had not been on the battlefield to directly participate in large-scale battles, and deliberately allowed himself to carry out some rotation between the city defense troops who could justifiably participate in the task of "suppressing bandits" and his own private army, so that the private army could also have a certain amount of actual combat experience, but at that time, after all, Liu Biao was watching, and Li Sheng did not dare to make such a move too big anyway, so that after such a number of rotations, more than one-third of Li Sheng's army still had only been trained and had not been bloody, which made Li Sheng feel a headache.

Although the Battle of Chibi had passed and his side had achieved a brilliant victory, Li Sheng and his military advisors understood that this victory was a combination of many reasons, and it was not entirely the result of their own side alone. Li Sheng, who knew the so-called history, understood that after the Battle of Chibi, he had successfully replaced Liu Bei's position in Jingzhou, and he would face an unprecedented challenge. Although the territory he controls is far more powerful than what Liu Bei has in history at the beginning of this challenge, his side is still very weak compared to Cao Cao and Sun Quan, who already have strong strength. In order to be able to rapidly expand his strength, Li Sheng decided to quickly seize Jiaozhou, enrich the money in his army, and under Zhuge Liang's suggestion, let Pang Tong directly carry out the reorganization and expansion of the army.

Li Shengjun's plan for reorganizing the army was formed by adding some new organs and making slight changes on the basis of the original establishment of Li Sheng's private army, that is, to:

From Li Sheng onwards, two major organs were set up: the Military Orders Department and the Military Administration Department, which were responsible for the army's garrison, strategic and tactical planning, and other combat-related matters, while the Military Administration Department was responsible for the distribution of the army's grain, grass, silver, and salaries, the mobilization of ordnance and materials, the arrangements for the various supervising troops, and the compilation of information and intelligence, and so on.

In terms of establishment, five people are teamed, including one chief and one deputy captain; The 5th army and 25 people are a platoon, including a principal and deputy lieutenant, and the platoon is directly subordinate to the first lieutenant, which is directly commanded by the deputy lieutenant; Six platoons of 150 people are a standard, with one lieutenant and one lieutenant and one supervising army; Seven hundred and fifty people in five standards are a song, with one principal and one deputy school and one supervising army; The five songs and one reinforced standard of 4,000 people as a battalion, led by a partial colonel, with a principal and deputy partial colonel and a supervising army; Five battalions and 21,000 people are strengthened, and the army has one principal and one deputy general and one supervising army.

In marching operations, Qu was used as the basic combat unit, with permanent battalions rather than long armies. Each battalion is stationed in the local area in peacetime, and in wartime, the military command office selects each battalion into a single army and appoints a general to command. In time of the war, the general had absolute authority over the battalions, which was to be disbanded after the war, unless there was a special need.

In terms of unification of training and equipment, Li Sheng's plan for the reorganization of the army included the reorganization of his existing 100,000 people into 25 battalions. Among them, there are four spear battalions, four bow and arrow battalions, three cavalry battalions, six infantry mixed battalions, four sailor battalions, one sailor and marine battalion, and three engineer battalions.

The so-called spear battalion is a mixture of large shield soldiers and pikemen: that is, there are two large shield soldiers and three pikemen in a team. The large shield soldier is equipped with a giant shield one and a half high, a crossbow, a short sword, three throwing guns, with leather armor as a protective gear, standing at the front of the team, landing on the ground with a giant shield during battle, sideways with a shoulder to the shield, throwing a spear and far, and a hand crossbow and near; According to the position they occupy, the pikemen are equipped with a spear ranging from one zhang to three zhang, five spears, with leather armor as protective gear, standing behind the large shield soldiers, and forming a gun forest with a spear and a long spear and a near spear, and a flat push to meet the enemy.

The so-called bow battalion is a mixture of large shield soldiers and archers: that is, there are two large shield soldiers and three foot archers in a team. The large shield soldier is equipped with a giant shield one and a half high, a crossbow, a short sword, three throwing guns, with leather armor as a protective gear, standing at the front of the team, landing on the ground with a giant shield during battle, sideways with a shoulder to the shield, throwing a spear and far, and a hand crossbow and near; The foot archer is equipped with a bow, two pots of arrows, a crossbow, twenty arrows, and a short sword, and uses leather armor as a protective gear, standing behind the large shield soldiers, and is far away with bows and arrows, and close with crossbows.

The reorganized cavalry battalion is the establishment of light armored cavalry, and the cavalry wears leather armor, equipped with eight spears, five throwing guns, a saber, a bow, fifty arrows, and one person and two horses. In wartime, the first attack is to a distance with a bow and arrow, and then the approach is to throw a spear, and the enemy can charge with a spear. (The saber is Li Shengjun's new equipment, the knife is four feet long, can be grasped with one hand, the blade is heavy, and the blade is single-edged, to replace the horse sword originally equipped in the army.) ）

The infantry battalion is used for melee combat and melee combat, with one swordman, two spearmen, and two archers. The main weapon is a long-handled saber in the knife hand, equipped with a long-handled saber, three throwing guns, and leather armor as a protective gear. One of the gunners used a company's spear as the main weapon, a short-handled sabre, three throwing guns, and leather armor as a protective gear. The archer is equipped with a bow, two pots of arrows, a crossbow, twenty arrows, a short sword, and leather armor as a protective gear, located in the middle of the army, with a bow and arrows and a crossbow.

The sailors battalion conducts relevant training according to their position on the battleship, and as for the equipment of the individuals, they are unified with two whirling wivels, one bow, thirty arrows, and one short sword. This is still the result of the strong demand of Gan Ning, the governor of the navy, if according to Li Sheng's original opinion, there is no need to equip these. "If it comes time for our warships to face to face with others, this battle will basically be lost!" Li Sheng thinks so. For him, who was not very familiar with the navy, the battle was undoubtedly a backward and avoidable way of warfare - this view was not shared by Gan Ning and others, although they also believed that the warships given to them by Li Sheng were very powerful.

The Marine Battalion of the Navy Army is a newly established establishment of Li Shengjun, and its main task is to be responsible for land warfare, sneak attacks, and so on...... Soldiers armed with a short-handled saber, two boomerangs, fifteen thunderbolts, a bow and arrow, twenty arrows, and a flying claw as weapons, and leather armor as protective gear, were required by Li Sheng as the elite of the elite. Generally speaking, except for the fact that the name of the naval army is different from Li Sheng's own guard battalion, the others are trained according to the standards of the guard battalion. Being able to be a sailor on a ship, being an army on the next step, and being a cavalry with a horse are all their most basic abilities. Of course, the soldiers who were able to enter the Marine Battalion of the Navy also enjoyed the highest treatment in Li Shengjun.

To put it bluntly, the engineer battalion is a branch of the army formed by Li Sheng's combination of sappers and grenadiers in later generations. "It can make all kinds of siege equipment, and use catapults, bed crossbows, rocket vehicles, and thunder bombs as the main weapons. Under certain protection conditions, it has the ability to fight independently. This is what Li Sheng asks of them. Although it is unlikely that they will have such a high level at the beginning of this army, they will certainly develop in this direction in the next year.

The first step is to complete the reorganization of the 100,000 people and 25 battalions within one year, which will be used as the main field force of Li Sheng's army, and the second step is to expand the so-called 100,000 city defense troops, that is, garrison battalions, on the basis of 100,000 people, which is about 60 battalions and 240,000 battalions. Although this is a staggering amount, it is not so terrifying in reality. Compared with the completely out of production and as the main force of the attack force, the 240,000 garrison battalion can be regarded as a combination of Cao Cao's Tuntian troops and the new battalion. There is no distinction between integration and mixed formation, there is basically no protection of leather armor, and the soldiers of the garrison battalion are all civilians who have just bid farewell to their homeland and have been recruited, and they are used as the reserve force and auxiliary defense force of the 100,000 main forces.

Their appearance was proposed by Li Sheng on the basis of the military service of later generations and his own requirements at the moment. In the reorganization plan, Li Shengjun's soldiers only need to complete 10 years of military service before they can apply for retirement. Only five of the so-called 10-year period existed as regular military service. That is to say, a soldier who has just been recruited into Li Sheng's army must first stay in the garrison battalion for three years, train a soldier while in Tuntian, and then be assigned to each main force according to his own wishes and the requirements of his superiors, and participate in operations with the main force for five years.

Comparatively speaking, the 10-year military service period is much longer than the short military service period of only three years in later generations. Originally, Li Sheng also wanted to directly apply the methods of later generations, but after repeated calculations and considerations, he still reluctantly gave up doing so after repeatedly considering the needs of the current situation: "There is no way, the level of people in this era, especially the level of those who come to be soldiers, is too low." Li Sheng had a headache helplessly. In his opinion, it is impossible for a newly recruited soldier to develop the appearance of a soldier without about two years of training, so he has to set up a "buffer period" of the first three years. As for the last two years, it was set up out of consideration for the soldiers' own situation: in the flow of people going south, Li Sheng had seen some people who had left the army to escape the bloodshed, and he had heard from them almost all of them, that is, it was difficult to survive the bloody battle, and it was even more difficult to return to peace after surviving. It took a long time for all of them to erase the bloody battlefield scene from their dreams when they closed their eyes, and slowly got used to the blandness that should have belonged to them.

"It was almost a time when it was difficult to be a soldier and a difficult person to serve. The inner pain is more abundant than the physical exhaustion. A Jingzhou soldier who had studied for a few years and finally became a small officer said.

Li Sheng understood this feeling when he thought about it, and he listened to their descriptions of himself, combined with the various things that later generations heard about the difficulty of the retired people living in society, so he decided to set up a buffer period of the last two years, and established the so-called resettlement method for retired soldiers in principle -- anyway, the land of Jingnan is vast and sparsely populated, and since we have few people, then we should all go to farming, and if one person gives them ten acres of land, it seems that it will be enough to feed the family. Li Sheng did not calculate how many acres of land were needed to feed a family in this era, so he only determined such a principle, and handed over the specific amount to Liao Li and Pang Tong. Because he had heard the teachers talk about the Chinese's desire for fields more than once in history class, Li Sheng intuitively thought that giving them fields was the greatest reward for them.

Ten acres of land is only a sum that can be received by a veteran who has completed ten years of military service and has no military merits. And in this troubled world, it is unthinkable to survive ten years of military service without any military merits. Either die, mutilate, or kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, the army of this era is so cruel. Therefore, according to the Qin Dynasty's policy of rewards and punishments for farming and warfare and the military rank system of later generations, Li Sheng set up the military merit level of soldiers on his side: for every five enemy heads or three enemy captures, he was promoted to one level of military rank, and for each level of military rank, the number of acres of land was increased by five, that is, the so-called "one enemy's head is worth one mu of land". In addition, it was stipulated that the ownership of the land acquired by soldiers as a result of military service or military exploits belonged to the "state" (now Li Sheng himself), and the soldiers and their families only had the right to cultivate the land, and the right to cultivate the land was allowed to be granted to the two generations, after which the number of acres of land was reduced to half of the original number of acres and belonged to the military dependents, and the other half was reverted to the "state". The war dead were given to the relatives of the war dead according to the upper two levels of the military rank of the war dead, that is, ten acres of land were sealed; The disabled are given five to ten acres of land to the disabled or their military dependents according to the level above the disabled military rank.

As for the military ranks, they are divided into: pawn, soldier, sergeant, captain, colonel, general, and marshal seven levels are divided into twenty-one ranks: the pawn, the new recruit, is also divided into upper, middle and lower three levels, and their families enjoy the treatment of ten acres of land, and the first three years of military service are promoted by year, and they are not added to the military rank and acre system; Soldiers, soldiers of war, are divided into upper, middle and lower three levels, the soldiers in the main army can be for it, according to the number of beheadings and get the title, according to the rank of the acre system to obtain the corresponding acres of land rewards, under the army ten acres of land, in the middle of the soldiers fifteen acres, on the soldiers twenty acres; Soldiers, the servants of the Wu Commander, are divided into upper, middle and lower ranks, and are awarded titles according to the number of beheadings, and receive corresponding rewards according to the rank of the acre system, 25 acres for corporals, 30 acres for sergeants, and 35 acres for sergeants; The captain platoon and the length of the standard are also divided into upper, middle and lower ranks, and they are awarded according to the number of beheadings, and the corresponding acres are rewarded according to the military rank and acre system, with 40 acres for lieutenants, 45 acres for lieutenants, and 50 acres for captains; The school, the commander of the song and the battalion, is divided into three ranks: upper, middle and lower, and is awarded according to the number of beheadings, and is rewarded according to the rank of the acre system, 55 acres for the corporal, 60 acres for the lieutenant colonel, and 65 acres for the colonel; Generals, the commanders of the army, are divided into upper, middle and lower ranks, and are awarded titles according to their military merits or public opinion, and they are rewarded according to the rank of the field and acre system, with 70 acres for the generals, 75 acres for the lieutenant generals, and 80 acres for the generals; The handsome, the general, is also the honorable title, according to the rank of the acre system to obtain 100 acres of land as a reward.

Because of the use of a reward system in which one person is a soldier and the whole family benefits, Li Shengjun's soldiers can fight with peace of mind without worrying about what is going on behind them. Because they all know that only if they kill more enemies in front of them and gain greater military achievements, their families behind them can live better.

This campaign to reorganize the army in July of the 14th year of Jian'an greatly improved Li Shengjun's military strength and will to fight, and it made Li Shengjun one of the most fearless armies in the world.
