Gao Jia scratched his head and said puzzledly: "The little soldier is also an officer?" ”

Ling Yun patiently explained to them, "This is not an official, it just belongs to the ranks, and they are in the upper and lower sequences. For example, as long as you join the Huaihuang Army, as soon as you enter the army, then you are a senior guard. Then, as long as he is not at fault within one year, and without meritorious service, he can be promoted to the second rank of Yishi in the second year."

According to Ling Yun's plan, these ten seniors can be promoted based on seniority. From one to four seniorities, the number of years of promotion at all levels is one year. Five, six, seven, and three seniorities, the promotion period for each level is two years, and then eight or ninety-three seniority, and the promotion period for each level is three levels.

Wei Zheng also came over to join in the fun at this time, he calculated and said, "If you don't make meritorious service and don't make a big mistake, a soldier can be promoted to the tenth rank in nineteen years after joining the army, so what about after nineteen years, will he be automatically promoted to the deputy team leader?" ”

The deputy team leader is a nine-rank officer, this is already a formal rank-ranked officer, Ling Yun shook his head, "This is only a military rank, of course it is impossible to be promoted to an official rank." From a soldier to an official, he naturally has to make meritorious service according to the system in order to be rewarded. If he cannot be promoted to an officer for meritorious service after nineteen years, then he can be discharged from the army. "This can be regarded as a benefit for Lingyun to the soldiers, under normal circumstances, whether it is a government soldier or a recruit from the imperial court, in many cases, as long as it is recruited, it is a lifelong system. And Ling Yun's idea is that if you can't be promoted from a soldier to an officer, then you only need to be a soldier for 19 years at most before you can be discharged. He joined the army at the age of eighteen and was discharged from the army after nineteen, which was only thirty-seven years old. If you can make meritorious contributions, become an officer. Of course it's the best.

From the perspective of the Huaihuang Army, although a soldier who was still very young was released, in fact, a soldier who had been a soldier for 19 years and had not been able to mix with an officer. There's nothing to be sorry for retiring.

On the other hand, there is this ten-level soldier, which is also used to motivate soldiers, and this ten-level soldier is certainly not good-looking. He's going to tie it to salary, allowances, and even position.

"The lowest salary, his monthly salary is 1,000 wen, 500 wen for wheat and cloth, plus two stones of rice. Four horses of spring and winter clothes. Lingyun said.

"Consistently? It's lower than the original, what is this rice two stones and wheat folding cloth money? Gao Jia was a little confused.

"The money has not been reduced, but the original money has been simply given. It was changed to money and grain, which was always a monthly salary, and the money for folding wheat and cloth was five hundred yuan a month for the soldiers to offset the money for wheat and cloth, and they themselves bought it. This meter is two stones. It is the monthly food distribution of a soldier. This one is in addition to the rations. The soldiers were given two liters of rice a day as their food rations, and two stone a month was one of their salaries, similar to the officials' salaries. "The official's Lu is to distribute food. Ling Yun also exchanged part of the money for food to send it down, also for the sake of reassuring the soldiers' hearts, after all, food is not simply a superficial value, this is a daily necessity. It is better to be issued directly by the army than to buy it themselves. There is a steady dìng of grain hair. This is more reassuring to the hearts of the soldiers. After all, at this time, food is not readily available, especially here.

"Of course, this is only the basic money, the soldiers usually eat in the camp, wear clothes and shoes, these are also issued by the army. In addition, there will be another reward for the New Year's holidays. Generally speaking, it is the lowest level of a first-class soldier, and the annual cost of raising a soldier is at least about 50 yuan. "It costs money to raise soldiers, and it costs a lot of money. Lingyun's salary and military resources are linked, not to save the cost of raising soldiers, but to find out the level of rank, so as to motivate the soldiers to behave well. With high and low, there is competition. Moreover, this new way of paying is actually more costly than the original simple payment of money. But in order to motivate the soldiers, Ling Yun could only pay more.

The basic money of one capital is consistent, the ten capital is already five times a month, the folding wheat and cloth money has to be two times, and the other ten yuan of rice per month is six stones, and the clothes and silk of spring and winter are ten horses. However, a soldier with ten seniorities is already considered a high-ranking non-commissioned officer, and he is generally at least a team leader, and he plays a great role in the army, so it is normal to have a high salary.

"How can this rank and position be symmetrical?" Wei Zheng asked.

"The newly recruited soldiers are one senior, the deputy captain is five seniors, the lieutenant commander is six seniors, the deputy commander is seven seniors, the battalion commander is eight seniors, the nine seniors are the flag commander, and the flag is ten seniors." Under normal circumstances, a veteran who has been a veteran for five years is the deputy commander who is not a formal position at all. To be a captain, you have to ask for six qualifications. When the guy grows up, he gets eight dollars, and if he wants to be a standard-bearer, he gets ten dollars. This requirement is very high, but at the moment, the Huaihuang Army is a new recruit, and the low-level positions at all levels must only be used for a few years of seniority.

Of course, five seniors do not necessarily require five years of soldiers.

"Kill an enemy, you can be promoted." Of course, it is possible to be promoted by killing the enemy in battle. However, the promotion is also very strict, and the promotion of the two, three and four qualifications, each of which has a head is enough. For the promotion of 5673 qualifications, two first levels are required for each, and for the promotion of 893 seniors, three first level skills are required for each. If you have the ability to cut nineteen heads at once, then you can be directly promoted from a rookie recruit of one rank to a veteran of ten ranks, and of course, you will have the qualifications to serve as an elite warrior like the flag head.

In short, Ling Yun has a set of strict military ranks, and it is linked to money and position.

"Can this soldier be promoted or not?" Wei Zheng asked another important question.

"Of course, if Yan zhòng violates military discipline, the soldier's rank can be demoted, and after the degrade, his rank and age must be recalculated from the date of the degrade. However, if the mistakes made have been corrected and notable achievements have been made in combat and training, the period of promotion in the ranks of the troops may be shortened. Moreover, the rank of a soldier can not only be downgraded, but also canceled and deprived! Ling Yun said without hesitation. It is not possible to go up but not down. There are ups and downs, so as to better stimulate the soldiers.

"The new soldier rank system and the new money system will be implemented together, and after the Huaihuang Army completes its establishment, it will be implemented according to this system. All the soldiers below the head of the team and the deputy head of the team, Yu Houjiao, are counted from the same salary, and then the table and merits of the last Shihe and this battle of Taoshan are counted, and then according to the level of the troops they calculated, they are given the rank of the team and other levels of the army. Ling Yun also knew that even if these two battles were counted, there would not be enough high-ranking soldiers to serve as captains and other ranks, "according to their ranks, they will be given positions from high to low." ”

"Even so, at most, I can get enough of the head of the flag, the leader of the flag, the deputy commander, the low-level captain, the deputy commander, it is estimated that there are no more high-ranking soldiers."

"Then cultivate!" Ling Yun tapped on the table and said, "In view of the current situation, I plan to establish a teaching group. ”

"Teaching team?" Wei Zheng was a little immune to the new words that came up in Lingyun one after another.

Although the teaching team is called a team, it is actually a rotation training camp for the lowest-level Wu captain, which is actually directly taken by Ling Yun according to the settings in the later army. This training team is directly subordinate to the military department, and a number of outstanding officers are selected to serve as instructors, and the most basic military leaders, such as group commanders and army commanders, are trained in rotation. The rotation training period is one to three months, and the training of the captain is four to six months. The main content of the training includes tactical, technical and cultural knowledge, so that these lowest-level soldiers will have a good tactical level and military skills and the ability to organize, command, train and manage the team after training. To put it bluntly, it is to let them learn how to become a small soldier from a small soldier and know how to lead a small army. The biggest task of this training team is to conduct a short-term training for a group of soldiers who are about to be promoted to corps commanders and gang commanders, and then to new posts.

This is also the method that Ling Yun thought of in desperation, there are too many recruits, too few veterans, let the veterans bring one, one belt two, it is better to directly select the best coaches, and systematically and comprehensively train these pre-raised soldiers.

"Okay, that's a good idea." Gao Jia, who had been an officer of the Northern Qi Imperial Forest Army, immediately saw the role of this teaching team and praised it loudly. Dou Jiande drew inferences from one case to another, and immediately said to Ling Yun, "At present, our corps-level officers are still lacking in training, according to a certain point of view, the marshal can completely set up another teaching regiment, and the marshal will organize all corps-level officers to personally teach them how to lead troops to fight." With the marshal's familiarity with the art of war, and the art of war with soldiers like gods, teaching all team-level officers will definitely make them rise to a high level one by one. Moreover, in this way, the officers of the corps at all levels are also the personal students of the marshal, and everyone will inevitably become more and more loyal to the marshal. ”

These words were very level, not only patting Ling Yun's sycophants, but also giving Ling Yun a means to buy people's hearts and strengthen the control of the army. It is true that the position of a team-level officer is not high, but if these people have become Ling Yun's students, with this teacher-student relationship, then they will inevitably be more loyal to Ling Yun. Although the higher-level regimental and battalion-level officers have high positions, they still have to rely on these lower-level officers at the team level to control the troops.

"Well, this is good. However, it is not appropriate to call it a teaching group, and if you have a teaching team, you don't need to call it a teaching group anymore. In my opinion, it can be renamed the Lecture Hall, and officers of all the teams in the army can be selected in turn to listen to the lectures and study, I can be the mountain chief, and you can also be the instructor. There are now nearly 1,000 team-level officers in the whole army, and I think 100 people can be selected for further training. "For the position of the head of the Wutang Mountain, Ling Yun did not let it out. There is the headmaster in history, Ling Yun doesn't dare to be careless. After thinking about it, Ling Yun said again: "Simply, the teaching team will also be under the lecture hall, well, transfer some more soldiers, and form a teaching group with these trained students at the team level and the team level." ”

Although these trained officers were officers at all levels, Ling Yun would not pamper them too much. The Martial Arts Hall will be a military academy, so if there is a war, Ling Yun will also send them to the battlefield.

The teaching regiment is the student army of the martial arts hall, and it will also be Yi Feng's guard regiment and pro-soldier team! (To be continued......)
