CHAPTER XVII
In the afternoon, Wang Bin stood in front of the training ground, looked at the soldiers who had lined up below, and began to speak
"Today, I have everyone standing here and listening to my teachings, and some people may say that I am building up my majesty, but I don't think so."
The soldiers below were at a loss after listening to Wang Bin's words, you are the minister of military training outside the Guan, who dares to oppose you?
Wang Bin paused, and then said
"This time, I just want everyone to know what you are here to be a soldier, I know that some people are here to be promoted, get rich, and eat imperial food to reduce the burden on their families, but you don't know what it means to be a soldier, you think this is from your own interests?"
"It seems to me that a soldier is nothing more than a person who has been trained and has learned to obey orders, nothing more."
As soon as these words came out, the soldiers below were in an uproar, and they didn't understand why Wang Bin said this.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Bin said loudly to the soldiers in the training ground.
"Soldiers, they don't know what they're fighting for, they just blindly obey orders, but soldiers know what they're fighting for." "So I hope you can become a soldier in the future."
Speaking of this, the soldiers under the training ground seemed to understand what Wang Bin was going to say today
Wang Bin looked at the soldiers below who didn't seem to understand and spoke again
"I don't expect you to understand anything today, but I hope you will remember what I said."
Wang Bin didn't know why he suddenly remembered such a sentence, and then spoke
"In the West, there is such a saying that is very classic, he said: Those who dare to sacrifice for the country and the nation are always a few."
"And I think this is the best interpretation of the military, so I am not here to lecture you for anything else, but to let you know what you are entering the barracks for."
"I just want you to know that when you put on this garment, you are not a soldier for your own selfish desires, but a soldier for this crumbling country." "I hope you can be one of the few who dare to sacrifice for the country and the nation."
Speaking of which, Wang Bin was a little emotional about this era.
In this day and age, only a few people know what they can do for this country.
The rest of the people live in a mess every day.
So I need to change something here.
Then Wang Bin said a few more casual words and let the soldiers disband.
At the end of the lecture, Wang Bin prepared to set up a department to manage the daily ideological education of soldiers.
As for this newly established ideological education department, Wang Bin has been thinking about it for a long time in his heart, and Wang Bin is going to call it the Education Department.
It is not only necessary to tell these soldiers what they are here for.
The main thing is to be able to understand the thoughts of the soldiers below from time to time.
Just like the political commissars of later generations and the political training office of Jiang Guangtou later.
It can be used to enlighten the political consciousness of the vast number of officers and soldiers, improve the combat effectiveness of soldiers, and enhance the cohesion among soldiers.
Because Wang Bin found that most people in this era joined the army for profit
So Wang Bin ordered Lin Hao and Gu Chen to come to him after the end.
As for the time while waiting for Lin Hao and Gu Chen to arrive, Wang Bin sorted out his thoughts again.
Prepare to move some of the later generations of the army to the daily life of the association.
Before Wang Bin could think for long, Lin Hao and Gu Chen had already come to Wang Bin's face, and Wang Bin saw that they were coming so quickly that he had to question the content that came to his mind first.
First of all, Wang Bin looked at the two of them and said, "I am now going to set up an education department in our first association and the old army that is being trained, and let the two of you take charge of it." “
After Wang Bin finished speaking, Lin Hao on the side asked with some confusion, "My lord, isn't this Gu Chen in charge of the soldier's reading and writing, why do you still need me to be responsible for the education department that was established?" “
Lin Hao had some doubts, this is usually Gu Chen's business to ask soldiers to read and write, and now what kind of education department has been established is responsible for the education of soldiers, what is the matter with him, who is in charge of this education department.
Wang Bin saw Lin Hao's puzzlement and said: "This education department is not only responsible for the cultural issues of soldiers, but more importantly, it is necessary to re-educate soldiers ideologically while educating them culturally. “
In Wang Bin's view, the reason why this army of later generations had combat effectiveness was that equipment was one thing, national righteousness was another, and more importantly, the ideological education of soldiers was particularly important.
When this army knows what it is fighting for, then this army will face all kinds of difficulties with a tenacious spirit.
To put it bluntly, this is the spirit or soul of an army.
In Wang Bin's view, the protagonist Li Yunlong in the later "Bright Sword" proposed the spirit of "meeting on a narrow road, the brave wins", which fully interprets what is called the military soul. "My lord, I understand this ideological education, the key is what does it mainly teach?"
Gu Chenfa on the side asked, "I have already thought about this question, mainly the following points."
1。 Soldiers are not allowed to molest women.
2。 Prisoners must not be mistreated after a battle has been won.
3。 Damage to someone else's things must be compensated.
4。 Obey the orders of your superiors.
6。 It is not allowed to take anything from the common people.
These points will first be used as the ideas of the Education Department to publicize to the soldiers, and as for the future, I will supplement them according to the situation. “
Then Gu Chen and Lin Hao opened their mouths and said to Wang Bin: "My lord, this damage to other people's things must be compensated and not allowed to take anything from the common people, I'm afraid it's a little difficult." “
It's no wonder that Gu Chen and Lin Hao would ask such a question.
Because in this era when the people do not fight with the officials, these soldiers take some things from the common people, and the common people can only consider themselves unlucky.
As for the damage to other people's things, you must compensate.
What is this thing for these soldiers?
So Wang Bin needs his own soldiers to do this in order to show that they are different from other armies.
In this way, it can quickly gain the recognition of the people, and after the soldiers do not commit any crimes in the autumn, the people's hearts will come.
As for the solution to this problem, Wang Bin has already come up with it.
So Wang Bin spoke: "In this case, I am going to set up another supervision department in your education department to supervise the soldiers. "Also, in the past few days, you have posted notices in the city, and if you disturb the people in the future, you can go to the education department to expose it."
After a pause, Wang Bin said: "For the person who whistleblows, if the revelation is true, the whistleblower will be rewarded with one or two silver." “
After listening to this, Gu Chen and Lin Hao thought: I'm afraid that this method is useless, who dares to expose it.
But he still said to Wang Bin, "My lord, this is really a good method." “
