(2nd Update)

Early in the morning of that day, when the 10,000 soldiers of the Praetorian Guard were still asleep, they were so startled by an urgent notice that they could no longer close their eyes, and the training in the morning was suspended, and the training in the afternoon was temporarily canceled.

Recruits, you ask me, I ask you, looking at each other, no one knows whether this good news that fell from the sky is true, and they don't know why there is such an order suddenly, because the upper echelons have not given any explanation.

Before they could find out the cause of the incident, another notice made their minds drift even further to where they had not yet fallen, and during the suspension of training, the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard were not allowed to move around at will, but could only stay in the barracks, and those who entered and exited without permission were dealt with according to the law.

For a while, the pot exploded in the barracks, and the discussion continued, but there was gossip that this suspension of training had a lot to do with the upcoming mid-term assessment.

Much like the discussion among the soldiers, the officers were also full of doubts, because at the same moment after the emergency notice was issued, all the officers above the battalion level poured into the same place, the Praetorian Guard command hall.

The spacious hall was crowded with the middle and low-ranking generals of the Praetorian Guard, and since the meeting was completely secret, and the incident happened suddenly, after they sat down, they also exchanged their guesses with each other.

Of course, these people did not include Lu Shuangming, the leader of the machine gun battalion, he sat in his seat in an orderly manner, and did not talk to the people around him, although he did not know what the actions of the high-level officials intended, but he remained silent during the waiting time, thinking about something else entirely.

As the name suggests, the scope of participants was extended to the battalion level, and this was the first time he had heard of it since he became a soldier, but in fact, people of his level were not qualified to participate in such high-level military meetings, and they were usually directly ordered by their superiors, and the matters discussed had nothing to do with him at all.

Looking at the rostrum that was one step higher in front of him, Lu Shuangming's heart was a little hot, several chairs there were still empty, but as the convener of the meeting, they would come sooner or later, and those who had the ability to sit there were at the first level of the association.

Among them, Lu Shuangming was most impressed by Ye Kai, the first co-commander, because just yesterday, the highest speaker of the Praetorian Guard appeared on the training ground of their battalion, and it only took less than ten minutes of conversation to make the soldiers of the entire battalion in a state of excitement all day yesterday.

It's the same reprimand, why can't it be so effective to shout your throat by yourself? Lu Shuangming was cranky, staring at the entrance without blinking.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, those army bigwigs appeared at the position of the rostrum.

Among these people, in addition to the co-commander Ye Kai and Jiang Yanxing, and the general staff officer Ha Hanzhang, there are also the heads in charge of auxiliary support departments such as military law, military quartermasters, military orders, military doctors, and ordnance, each of whom is full of weight.

In view of the fact that today is a formal occasion, the group is wearing rare military uniforms, the most notable of which is Ye Kai, in addition to wearing the epaulettes of the co-ordinator, he is also equipped with a bright and dazzling Praetorian Guard minister's ribbon, such eye-catching signs, so that he has a high or low status in several people.

After sitting down, Ye Kai did not rush to speak, his eyes first swept around, and more than a hundred officers were in good spirits, all looking at the rostrum with full attention, and then he nodded secretly.

According to his original plan, the entire army should implement a two-chief system, with the commander and the military adviser jointly responsible, serving as the military commander and the commander respectively, and rationally distributing power in accordance with the principle of "taking charge of the construction of the military system and the chief of the military advisory service." In this way, the most important power of an army will be split in half, and the phenomenon of the commander monopolizing military power and the tail being too big to be lost will be avoided to the greatest extent, and this is also a countermeasure made in response to the current situation of the Chinese armed forces.

Of course, because the Praetorian Guard has not yet become an army, and the personnel are basically selected by Ye Kai, the power should not be excessively dispersed for the time being, so the pipes and leaders of each standard and battalion under the seat are all one person and two positions, and it is not too late to make corresponding changes in the future.

"Officers of the Praetorian Guard," he began, and everyone sat upright.

"I'm guessing you're thinking about what you have to say about calling you over today for this kind of meeting, but if you want to think about it, you should also remember that every issue of an enlarged meeting of the whole army is related to the future of the entire Praetorian Guard, and you can't afford to neglect it."

Ye Kai didn't use the bureaucratic language of Wen Crepe, in front of a group of martial artists, he still used simple and straightforward words, and this word really had a remarkable effect, and the faces of the people below were tense, more or less showing a trace of nervousness, it seemed that the purpose of attracting attention had been achieved.

"Yanxing, come on" Ye Kai said in a low voice, after making the opening remarks, it was the turn of the actual agenda, and the next right to speak was handed over to Jiang Yanxing.

"Before getting into the agenda, inform a decision." According to the discussion between the three of them yesterday, Jiang Yanxing took the lead, "From today onwards, the Quartermaster Department will check the military expenditure, and will conduct a thorough investigation of each standard and battalion, so please do your best to cooperate." ”

Although Jiang Yanxing's words were tactful, he did not mean to invite at all, his tone was more like an order, the notice was very brief, and he pursued the principle of stopping at the point.

"This command system has announced a major decision, in the middle of this month, the Praetorian Guard will conduct a mid-term assessment of the whole army!"

Jiang Yanxing's voice only increased by a few decibels, and he couldn't help but make a noise at the bottom, midterm assessment? It still involves a large-scale assessment of more than 10,000 officers and men of the entire army, and many people have never heard of this kind of thing.

Of course, Jiang Yanxing didn't care about their discussions, let alone them, he still remembered what his reaction was when he heard it, so he was not surprised.

"This assessment is divided into three days, and the content is also divided into three parts, the first day, routine inspection, including military drills, shooting, equestrian, artillery, parades, and rapid marching assessments, the second day, live drills, and the third day, rewards and punishments. After the assessment, the whole army repaired for two days, and all units paid attention to the registration of personnel. ”

I was confused again, except for the regular assessment on the first day, I could barely accept it, and the next two items were heard in a fog. Of course, Ye Kai, who was sitting on the rostrum, could observe this reaction, and of course he didn't expect many people to understand what it meant at one time, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to great lengths to call everyone to ******** once.

The purpose of this enlarged meeting is to make Ye Kai's will and high-level decision-making accurately every low-level soldier through them, middle and low-level officers, so that the purpose of the assessment can be fully implemented and normalized.

Jiang Yanxing cleared his throat and then announced: "Next, this system will explain the last two contents, the first is the actual military exercise, you can speak freely. ”

At this moment, everyone is waiting for Jiang Yanxing's explanation with peace of mind, not only others are a little curious, Lu Shuangming feels fresh, although he is only thirty-five years old this year, he has been in the army for almost twenty years, as an old pipe band, he has risen step by step from a soldier, so when he heard the words of real military drills, he was very interested.
