Chapter 168: The Military Rank System
In addition to the small number of sub-humans, Fang Xiaoyu also had other considerations, these sub-humans would be of great use in the future, Fang Xiaoyu didn't want to waste them on this kind of low-skill work that could be fully qualified as long as he studied the technician tutorial for two years.
Fang Xiaoyu set up such preferential conditions in terms of conscription, which is to alleviate the shortage of skilled workers and make a remedy, and at the same time, it can also provide more opportunities for young people who have missed the school age to receive more cultural education.
For the understanding of talents, Fang Xiaoyu knows very well in his heart that a scientific and technological power needs talents in all aspects, and it is not enough to have high-end scientists, but also senior technicians.
Scientists can only research new products or technologies, these new products still need to continue to improve, in the production process senior technicians can summarize the experience in the production process, to achieve the most optimized production process, sometimes the small innovation of technicians can even reduce the cost of a product by more than half, so a large number of excellent technicians are more important than college students all over the ground, so Fang Xiaoyu will not engage in the expansion of the Celestial Empire, but will improve the teaching quality of the technical school in a solid manner, Cultivate more outstanding technicians for the country.
The problem of soldiers has been solved for the time being, and when there are new recruits next year, Fang Xiaoyu's troops will be even larger, which means that within three years, Fang Xiaoyu will have enough troops of at least 1.5 million, and he will always maintain this level after that.
The number of soldiers is larger, which makes military affairs more cumbersome, and there is no formal military rank in the territory, so that more and more troops in the department are easy to be at a loss when working, so Fang Xiaoyu decided to implement a new military rank system in the territory.
In the past, there were all kinds of waste waiting to be rebuilt in the Chinese territory, and there were not many troops, Fang Xiaoyu did not have time to implement the military rank system, everyone was calling the old rank in the imperial army, like Feng Shichang is now the deputy chief of general staff of the army, and acquaintances always like to call him Major Feng, the old rank in his imperial army. Therefore, this time, taking the opportunity of changing the military system, Fang Xiaoyu decided to regularize the military rank and form his own system.
The military system of the empire is divided into three levels: general, colonel, and lieutenant, and each level is divided into three levels: upper, middle, and lower.
First of all, because of the regulations of the Lanfang Empire, the lord's army cannot set up the post of marshal, so in order to open up the rank and make the rise of the soldiers more flexible, Fang Xiaoyu has set up six levels of first-class general, second-level general, third-level general, lieutenant general, major general, and brigadier general at the general level, and there are five levels of colonel, colonel, lieutenant colonel, major, and brigadier colonel, and the lieutenant level is five levels: captain, captain, lieutenant, second lieutenant, and warrant officer.
In the army, there can not only be a hierarchy for officers, but also for soldiers, and Xiaoyu has also established a hierarchy of soldiers below the officers.
The highest rank among soldiers is sergeant major, but sergeant major is only available in professional soldiers under the conscription system, and most of them are the rank of squad leader. The highest military rank in the conscription system is sergeant, followed by sergeant, corporal, and private, and those who have just enlisted are privates.
After three months of intensive training in the barracks, the private will be assigned to various units, and after entering the unit for half a year, he will be promoted to the rank of senior soldier, and if he wants to be promoted to non-commissioned officer in the future, he will have to look at his performance, and after reaching the rank of sergeant, he can enter the Northland Army Noncommissioned Officer School to study for half a year.
After graduating from the non-commissioned officer school, these sergeants can choose to return to their original unit as a squad leader or apply to join the Guards as professional soldiers. Of course, if you return to the original unit, you can apply for an extension of the service period to five years, or you can retire directly after the expiration of the three-year service period, and if the service period is extended, the extended part is called a volunteer soldier, and the volunteer can receive the same level of salary as the professional soldiers of the Guards.
Non-commissioned officers who serve in the Guards serve for more than 10 years, while sergeants and sergeants can also apply for the rank of warrant officer and enter the ranks of officers if they have a sufficient cultural foundation. In this way, the Chinese leader has a complete set of low-level military selection mechanism, which will become the backbone of the Chinese leading team together with the military academy system.
Feng Shichang, who held the rank of lieutenant general, looked at the news passed by the various conscription offices with joy, and the generous treatment assigned to work in the Zhonghua Group Company after retiring made the young people in the territory eager to try, and the various conscription offices were crowded with people, and there was no need for propaganda at all, and the conscription work had been successfully completed.
After the selection, 490,000 recruits selected from the 2 million applicants quickly entered the recruit camp and began their intensive pre-enlistment training. Looking at the high-quality soldiers in the recruit camp who were training seriously, Feng Shichang couldn't keep his mouth shut these days.
Seeing Feng Shichang's smiling face, Lin Yangchun quipped: "Brother Feng, why do you laugh all day long, is there any big joy?" ”
Feng Shichang raised his eyebrows and said happily: "There are a lot of happy events, first of all, our army has expanded so much, and the quality of the soldiers is so good, I am naturally happy." ”
"Is there any more happy event?" Lin Yangchun heard what he said and hurriedly asked.
Feng Shichang said with a smile: "You just came back, I don't know what to say, the young master is going to get married." ”
"Really?" Lin Yangchun was also overjoyed when he heard it: "This is really a great event, when?" ”
Feng Shichang said: "It will be about two months later, and the young master has already sent out invitations, but many guests who need to be invited are far away, so it takes so long." ”
Lin Yangchun said with a smile: "The young master is also twenty years old, is it time to get married, is it the two daughters of the Xia family to marry together?" Under the leadership of Fang Xiaoyu, the economy of the Chinese leadership has reached a new level every year, and the army has won successive victories. The development of the Chinese collar is so thriving, how can everyone not love Fang Xiaoyu, so when they heard that Fang Xiaoyu was going to get married, everyone was really happy for him.
Feng Shichang pursed his lips and said, "Not only that, I heard that even our goddess in the army, the young master's guard captain Elena, is going to marry together." ”
Lin Yangchun touched the stubble on his chin and said with a smile: "The young master is powerful, even getting married is different from others, others marry one at a time, and the young master marries three at a time." ”
Feng Shichang said to the cavalry troops galloping in the distance: "Three is considered less, didn't you look at Miss Wang, the cavalry instructor from Tubo County?" She and the young master are also hot, maybe they will become Mrs. when they come, but then again, with such an excellent character as the young master, what girl would not be tempted. ”
At this time, Wang Ling was riding on horseback, training the soldiers of the cavalry division fiercely. Since hearing the news that Fang Xiaoyu announced that she would get married in two months yesterday, she always felt that there was a fire in her heart and she was very irritable.
The irritable Wang Ling didn't close her eyes almost all night, and the maids around her were reprimanded by her for no reason several times, and she didn't know why she would lose her temper for Lu, and the more she was alone, the more she felt that she couldn't suppress the anger in her heart, so she got up early in the morning and immediately threw herself into new cavalry training.
This training Wang Ling came to vent her anger, she increased the already high training intensity a lot, and the soldiers of the cavalry division were exhausted. But when the soldiers of the cavalry division saw that Wang Ling, who was a girl, was training with them, these old men were embarrassed to complain, so they could only grit their teeth and endure it.
The waves lap against the dilapidated wooden trestle and the oyster-plastered seawall, a small pier that is not very prosperous, with very few people coming and going, and it is rare to see a ship docked on weekdays, but at this time a small three-masted sail cargo ship is slowly entering the port.
Approaching the trestle, the sailors threw the cable ashore, and the dock workers who had been waiting for a long time caught the rope thrown from the ship and tied it firmly to the wooden stakes of the pier.
As the ship approached the dock, it soon slammed into the side of the pier, and with this collision, the ship stabilized. As soon as the boat stopped, a young man jumped off the boat more than one meter high, and his relaxed and chic movements looked like he had practiced martial arts.
Seeing the young man jump down, another young man standing on the dock immediately greeted him. "Second brother, you're still so reckless." The young man on the dock said with a smile. The young man standing on the pier is called Huang Weizhong, and the one who jumped off the boat is his younger brother Huang Weihua, both of them are orphans adopted by Fang Xiaoyu back then, and even their names were given later, and they and Lin Feng, Sun Xiaohu and others are also good friends.
After growing up, the orphans first adopted by Fang Xiaoyu have all gone their separate ways, and because of their similar backgrounds, they have always lived together, and these orphans have a natural sense of intimacy with each other.
Now the orphans who have begun to enter the work post have formed a personal guard system in the officialdom and army under Fang Xiaoyu that fully supports Fang Xiaoyu, and this system is still expanding rapidly, because Fang Xiaoyu's action of adopting orphans has not stopped.
Under Fang Xiaoyu's special care, they have been better raised and educated, and these orphans who have begun to emerge are constantly filling the various departments of the Chinese Territory, and gradually beginning to grasp power, it is conceivable that in time, these subordinates who decide to support Fang Xiaoyu will make his rule over the Chinese Territory solid.
At this time, due to their young age and lack of work experience, not many orphans have been promoted to senior management, and the highest level is Lin Feng, who chose to enter the government, and Zhang Haiyang, who has already become the chief of staff of the Navy.
Of course, not all of these orphans have entered the government and the army, and many have joined the intelligence bureau, or entered the business sea, helping Fang Xiaoyu control his various industries, and the Huang family brothers are also going their separate ways.
