Chapter 44: After the Meeting
The meeting was closed after only discussing some of the issues relating to the expansion.
At the end, Wang Bin expressed his hope that some of the methods proposed today should be implemented well after everyone here goes back, and strive to train an excellent new army.
After Wang Bin announced the end of the meeting, he signaled Xu Dajun and Li Changtai to stay for a while.
Then the officers began to disperse, and only Wang Bin, Xu Dajun and others were left in the huge conference room.
"My lord, I don't know what the matter is with the others who leave the department?"
Li Changtai on the side spoke first.
"Well, that's the case, the officer thinks that the task of your baggage battalion is still very heavy, and so is the engineering battalion, so the officer hopes that this engineering battalion can complete the construction work well in the future, and the baggage battalion is also, especially the baggage battalion, there are more soldiers in the fifth town, and the logistics pressure is also very great, so the baggage battalion can properly recruit some children from good families, what should these children of good families do on weekdays, as long as they receive proper training, and then be integrated into the army in wartime."
After Wang Bin finished speaking to Li Changtai, Li Changtai immediately replied
"What the adults said is similar, the previous government military system?"
"Yes, that's exactly what the officer thinks, enlisting in the army to undertake logistics tasks during normal labor and combat in peacetime, so that the pressure on logistics can be greatly solved."
After listening to Li Changtai's speculation, Wang Bin said approvingly.
After listening to Wang Bin's words, Li Changtai still had some doubts in his heart, after all, although the pressure on logistics was reduced a lot, the problem that followed was how to calculate the money on weekdays for these soldiers who were not originally soldiers.
Just as Li Changtai was about to raise this question, Wang Bin changed the topic to another one.
As a result, what Li Changtai wanted to say next had to be held back.
After Wang Bin put forward some logistical requirements, he turned around and put forward the concept of supplementary troops to Xu Dajun on the side.
Because Wang Bin found that there was no complete military service system in this era, all military recruitment was based on consciousness, and a complete system was not formed.
Therefore, it is also a great problem to replenish the army, so Wang Bin came up with a concept of supplementing soldiers, that is, similar to the reserve in later generations, to maintain a stable soldier for the army.
There is no need to wait until it's time to replenish the soldiers before remembering to start recruiting them.
On weekdays, these soldiers undergo low-intensity training, and in wartime, when there is a vacancy on the front line due to casualties, these soldiers will be replenished and replaced, so that there is no need to worry about the vacancy of soldiers due to casualties.
After Xu Dajun got this task, he immediately said that he would complete this task.
After ordering these things, Wang Bin let Li Changtai and Xu Dajun leave, and Li Changtai had not yet said the problem in his heart at this time.
At this time, Wang Bin was the only one left in the conference room, constantly spinning in circles, and he always felt that he seemed to have forgotten something.
After turning in place for many times, Wang Bin slapped his head violently and said while patting back
"I just said that I always felt like I had forgotten something, I had just been ambushed by bandits, how could I forget it so quickly."
Since Wang Bin was ambushed last time, the imperial court has not only appointed himself as the commander of the fifth town, but also let himself completely eliminate the bandits in this western Liaoning corridor.
I've been busy with the expansion of the compilation these days, and I haven't even thought about it, no wonder I always feel like I've forgotten something but I don't have time to think about it lately.
It wasn't until today that he had a little time to think about what he had forgotten, so Wang Bin asked the guards at the door to inform Ma Zikai to bring some information about the bandits to his office, and he needed these materials.
After sending guards to inform Ma Zikai, Wang Bin went to the office alone to wait for Ma Zikai's report.
In fact, Wang Bin himself didn't wait long, but after reading a document, Ma Zikai knocked on the door and entered.
After Ma Zikai came in, he held a push of the document in his hand, and said as he came in
"My lord, this is the information of some large and small bandits in western Liaoning collected by the Ministry of Occupation when they suppressed the bandits, and the Department of Occupation roughly sorted it out and brought it over after knowing that the adults needed these materials, I don't know what the use of the adults to ask for these materials?"
After Wang Bin saw Ma Zikai arrive, he stopped reading the documents in his hand and looked at the information in Ma Zikai's hand.
While looking at it, he said: "Well, this expansion telegram not only proposed the expansion, but also asked the official to expand the scope of the suppression of bandits, in the official's opinion, this ambush is really a slap in the face of the princes of the imperial court, naturally will be expanded at the same time to ask the official to suppress the bandits, this time let you bring these materials over, naturally to have a good understanding of how many bandits there are in this western Liaoning." ”
After listening to the words of his own adult, Ma Zikai immediately put the information in his hand on the table.
He smiled as he put it on the table
"My lord, you and you need to be so troublesome, what kind of information do you want to see for this bandit, just call it directly, I don't believe it, this group of bandits can still make a mess?" Ma Zikai's tone was quite heroic.
Wang Bin couldn't help but make fun of Ma Zikai when he saw Ma Zikai say so arrogantly
"Okay, how about the official allow you to bring ten people to suppress the bandits?"
After Ma Zikai heard this, he looked at Wang Bin, who was looking through the documents, and said with some embarrassment
"My lord, aren't you sincere in embarrassing the ministry, how can these ten people be enough to suppress bandits."
After Wang Bin saw Ma Zikai's embarrassing words, he said a word to Ma Zikai
"The ancients had a cloud: know yourself and know your opponent, you will not be defeated in a hundred battles, and you can only formulate a corresponding plan after you have a good grasp of the situation before suppressing the bandits, those bandits can recruit peace, and those bandits need to be exterminated This has a rough idea in my heart."
Ma Zikai has hated words like the ancients since he learned to read and write, because he was too tongue-twisting and he couldn't understand it, so he just smiled extremely embarrassed at Wang Bin's education.
After Wang Bin saw Ma Zikai's smile, he also knew that telling a soldier about this ancient man was really playing the piano to a cow, so he just shook his head, lowered his head and continued to look at the documents in his hand.
And Ma Zikai on the side saw that he had nothing to do, so he sat down on the seat on the side.
After Wang Bin kept looking at the document, he suddenly found that there seemed to be some problems with the document.
But judging from Ma Zikai's usual style, there should not be such a problem, Wang Bin, who was thinking about it, looked at the document in his hand, and suddenly came up with a question in his mind that he had never thought of, an extremely terrible question, a problem that he had never paid attention to since coming to this era, although he only thought of this question after seeing this document, but now it is time for him to verify this conjecture in his heart.
