Seeing the lonely look of tannin, Zhu Cihong decided to talk about the military rank in advance, so as not to lose the enthusiasm of his subordinates.

"I have read the newspaper of the Ministry of War for more than ten years and found an interesting thing." Zhu Cihong breathed a sigh of relief and said: "But every big battle, or a rout, or a big victory, there are very few cases of retreat after a stalemate, what do you think is the reason for this?" ”

This time, the question was biased towards jishu sex, and everyone expressed their opinions, mostly focusing on morale. Although morale cannot be seen or touched, it is indeed a very important hidden factor. Once morale collapses, even the most powerful army has to choose between surrendering and being annihilated.

After listening to what everyone said, Zhu Cihong smiled and said: "I think that the collapse of morale is just a symptom, and the fundamental reason is that I have lost the courage of the soldiers." What is Soldier Courage? Will be a soldier! The soldiers practice with you commanders every day, obey your orders, and once they get to the battlefield and fight for their lives, but suddenly they can't find you, they will naturally lose their courage. As soon as the courage is lost, the exercises on weekdays will naturally be useless. ”

Everyone nodded when they heard this, although the prince said it simply, it was by no means a scholar's opinion.

"However, the battlefield is changing rapidly, especially when the two armies meet, who can guarantee that the commander will be safe?" Zhu Cihong said: "So I thought of a way to make a mark on the officer's armor, so that even if the non-commissioned officer can't find his commander, he can know whose order to listen to." ”

This method is the military rank.

Strictly speaking, this is not Zhu Cihong's original system.

As early as the Warring States Period, Shang Ying established 20th rank lords in the Qin State, mixed the entire civilian, military, and official ranks, incorporated soldiers into the rank system, and formulated a class system that was popular throughout the Qin State. At that time, the different forms of armor were used to show the difference in class in the army.

"Embroider the ranks of each officer on the battle robes and helmets, and as long as they are still wearing armor, they can be recognized by the soldiers around them, and they can quickly line up and continue to fight." Zhu Cihong said: "What do you think? ”

Everyone didn't realize that it was a knighthood, and they didn't expect much.

"In the future, the post will be determined by military rank, and the position will be determined." Zhu Cihong added.

As a result, everyone got nervous.

Zhu Cihong had already considered the military rank system in detail as early as Ouchi. It's just that he is not a military fan after all, so it is impossible to come easily. Fortunately, his specialty is the internal control of the enterprise, and the formulation of internal employee grading wages is the basis of the foundation. Coupled with the common sense popularized in military dramas, it is not difficult to formulate a military rank system.

"The specific military rank system will be issued from the instructor to the individual, and after the integration of the three major battalions, the military commanders at all levels will be full, and then the title ceremony will be held." Zhu Cihong announced.

The military discussion soon ended in everyone's anticipation, and everyone got together in twos and threes to discuss what this military rank would look like and whether it could be mixed with the rank of general. It's not that they have big hearts, it's that they understand the prince's so-called military rank as a loose rank.

According to the military system of the Ming Dynasty, the military rank was awarded Zhongxian Captain from the beginning of the six grades, and the Zhongwu Lieutenant was added. If you go up one level and reach the sixth rank of martial arts, you can be awarded General Zhaoxin and promoted to General Chengxin. In addition, most of the thousands of generals in the army are six-ranked, and the guards of the East Palace have jumped one level, so it is not impossible to award a general Zhaoxin.

Zhu Cihong didn't think about using loose officials as the mother of the military rank system, so that he could have a natural sense of closeness to the military generals of the Ming Dynasty. If it is just a boring and monotonous "upper, middle and lower" arrangement, it is obviously missing the cultural tradition of Huangming.

However, for the miners who have never been in contact with the officer class, the various complicated ranks of generals can make them dizzy, let alone distinguish high-ranking officers from the chaos and obey the leadership.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Cihong still decided to use the third-order and nineth-level military rank of lieutenant as the rank of officer, and formulate a fifth-level non-commissioned officer rank, which is mainly awarded to squad leaders and soldiers of other jishu arms. Regardless of whether it is an officer or a non-commissioned officer, the rank is promoted one level in three years, and if the military rank cannot keep up with the speed of the increase in military rank, then the officer is transferred to the local miscellaneous position, and the soldier is demobilized into farming.

If you want to be promoted to a military position, you can only meet the conditions for promotion and make enough meritorious service, and at the same time, you must also see if there are vacancies above. Therefore, when the new military rank system was issued to individuals, everyone was happy about the salary increase once every three years, but they were worried about whether they could be promoted.

The guard battalion of the East Palace is all bachelors, there is no permanent production, working hard for Taiwei Xingjun, well-fed and warmly clothed, who wants to go to mining and pulling fibers again?

It's just that if you want to make meritorious contributions, it's not just as simple as isolating people's houses!

- If you really want to go into battle to kill the enemy, maybe you can really seal a general and go back to glorify the court.

She An looked at the new military rank regulations, and for the first time the thought of going into battle to make meritorious service came to his heart.

It is not uncommon for officers and even soldiers to think like She An, and they are really inspired. For a while, the morale of the army was high, and the morale during the exercise was obviously higher than before. From the news of the ten-member regiment to the training results reported by the tannins, they all urged Zhu Cihong to integrate the Beijing camp as soon as possible and catch some battles such as suppressing bandits.

Faced with this kind of situation where the military will be available, Zhu Cihong was naturally very happy to see it. When I first selected soldiers, I asked for those bachelors, and I really saw the effect. If they are dragged down by a small family, I am afraid that the rank alone is not enough to motivate them to go to the battlefield.

Since Sun Chuanting died last year, Tongguan fell into the hands of Li Zicheng, and the situation in and out of the Central Plains has been so bad that it is impossible to worse. Zhu Cihong was not from a history major, and he did not know that Li Zicheng would not arrive in Beijing until March next year.

In this case, the sooner we train to become a new army, the more we can retain the vitality of the Ming Dynasty and seek recovery. As long as the Zhu family is still sitting in the world, Wu Sangui will naturally not lead the Qing soldiers into the customs, and the tragic experience of Huaxia can be avoided. In fact, although the current Manchu Qing Dynasty was initially established in grammar, it was still a barbarian people, and it could not be compared with the Liao and Jin in the Song and Song dynasties.

"Your Royal Highness, the queen said that today is the expiration of the quarantine day of the Chengguo Mansion, please enter the palace and ask for peace." Yao Tao is not only Zhu Cihong's accounting room, but also a channel for female officials in the palace to convey informal wills.

Only then did Zhu Cihong raise his head from the military grand plan, looked at the desk calendar on the case, and said, "Is it today?" So fast? ”

"Niangniang misses His Royal Highness, and she eats one meal a day, and she has lost a lot of weight." Yao Tao lowered her voice, as if she was so moved that she was about to cry.

Zhu Cihong is very grateful to Zhou Hou and Chongzhen for the body he made, and he has nothing to complain about his living environment. Although the two saints had a centuries-old ideological gap with him, their love for their sons was the same as that of later generations.

Zhu Cihong shook the instructions that had just been written on the case, handed it to Tian Cunshan and asked him to forward it, got up and pulled the bell that summoned Liu Ruoyu, and said, "Then enter the palace now, and you can still have a meal depending on the time." ”

Yao Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly went out to prepare, and drove into the palace.
