Chapter 54: Ranks and the Five Legions
"The Third Army, Vermilion Bird Legion: Commander Han Xin, Deputy Generals Yang Kaibao and Teng Xin."
After reading, Han Xin led his generals to the stage to receive the decree of thanks.
"Fourth Army, Xuanwu Legion: Coach Meng Rui, Deputy Generals Ye Liangchen and Zhao Ritian."
After reading, Meng Rui led his generals to the stage to receive the decree of thanks.
"Fifth Army, Falcon Dragon Guard: Commander...?" When he read this, Wang Chong glanced at Li Feng, because the commander of the Fifth Army was actually His Majesty the Emperor of Great Qin, and it was too difficult for him to call the emperor by his name.
Li Feng smiled and nodded: "It's okay, you can read it!" ”
"The Fifth Army, the Falcon Dragon Guard Legion: The Son of Heaven's pro-army, sitting in the Beijing Division, is the elite of the country, the strongest army of Great Qin, the commander of Emperor Great Qin, and the deputy generals Bai Zhan and Wang Chong."
"I have a special staff headquarters next to the Jinluan Palace, and whenever there is a war, the commanders of the major legions need to discuss military aircraft at the staff headquarters and formulate combat strategies to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
After the military was completed, under Li Feng's award, Wang Chong ordered his subordinates to lift up a huge portrait of the First Emperor and hang it on a high platform.
According to the regulations formulated by Li Feng, an oath-taking ceremony should be held at this time.
Of course, Li Feng, the commander of the Fifth Army, did not have to participate in the oath because he was the emperor.
"The official seal has been completed, please take an oath to the portrait of the First Emperor of Great Qin!"
After speaking, Wang Chong took the lead and shouted: "The minister is the general of Great Qin, and he has been blessed by heaven." Looking back at Bai Zhan and the others, everyone understood, and shouted together:
"The minister is the general of Great Qin, and he has been blessed with the grace of heaven, and now in front of His Majesty, he swears to the ancestors of Great Qin, and he should think about sharing worries for the king, fulfill his duties, set the country and the country, and ask the world not to be a minister, although he does not hesitate to do so, if he swears for this, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, and the nine clans will fall into the infernal hell, and they will never be able to turn over!"
"Good!" After taking the oath, Li Feng walked up, looked at the generals present, and said with emotion: "The words of the secretaries are boiling with blood, and the hearts of the secretaries make me feel very gratified."
I also promise you that as long as you don't rebel against your father and don't harm the people, I will ensure that you will be rich and prosperous for generations. ”
"Minister, thank you, Lord Longen!"
"Meng Rui, Bai Zhan, Su Du, Han Xin, the four of you are divided into an army, to be honest, Daqin's current military strength is limited, and the establishment of your army is not complete, which requires you to promote junior officers yourself, as long as you inform me for review and approval, I will give you sufficient food and grass salaries, and give your soldiers the best treatment, but you have to use every cent on the blade.
"No! Remember! ”
"There are not many soldiers, but they are fine, I hope that the army handed over to you is the elite of the elite, and everyone is a killing weapon on the battlefield. Of course, there are only 100,000 regular troops, and you can recruit another 100,000 to 200,000 reserve troops, and if the regular army is killed or wounded, you can choose from the reserve army to replenish it. ”
"The last general understands, thank you for Your Majesty Longen!"
After several generals retreated, Li Feng shouted at the army below.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have set up five major legions, each legion is limited to 100,000 troops, and the survival of the fittest system is selected, and only the best soldiers can enter the legion.
"Only by entering the corps can you obtain the qualification to participate in the war and the 24 military merit grading system, and you can enjoy the death pension system, benefit your children and grandchildren, and glorify the lintel."
"Then what about the soldiers who have not been able to enter the five major legions, I hereby issue an edict, ordering the commanders of each legion to set up a reserve army outside the legion, and all soldiers who fail to be selected into the legion can enter the reserve army of the legion to which they belong, and if the soldiers of the legion are killed or injured in the future, the reserve army will be selected for admission."
"However, the Falcon Dragon Guard Legion has casualties, and it is selected from the four major legions of Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu."
In addition, we have established a military rank system, which will be implemented from now on, and all soldiers of the five major legions will be awarded military rank medals according to the size of their merits, and the benefits of the medals are as follows:
"Bronze 1 to 5 stars: 5 taels per month plus 5 taels of military salary, if killed in battle, children and grandchildren or family members will be repaid for another 10 years.
"Silver 1 to 5 stars: 10 taels per month for military salaries, double for two months at the end of the year, if you die in battle, your children and grandchildren or family members will be repaid for 10 years.
Gold 1 to 5 stars: 15 taels per month plus military salary, double the two months at the end of the year, if you die in battle, your grandchildren or family members will be repaid for 10 years. In addition, the imperial court refers to the marriage of a wife or concubine (there can only be one wife, and if there is a wife, it refers to a concubine).
Platinum 1 to 5 stars: 20 taels per month military salary, double the two months at the end of the year, if killed, children and grandchildren will continue to receive 10 years, in addition, the imperial court will marry a concubine every 10 years, and the emperor will give a general uniform of Mingguang armor.
Diamond 1 to 5 stars: 25 taels per month, double the two months at the end of the year, if you die in battle, your children and grandchildren will be repaid for 10 years. In addition, the imperial court marries a concubine every 10 years, and the emperor gives a general uniform of Mingguang armor, a pair of treasure carved bows, and eats at the same table with the emperor once a year.
Masters 1 to 5 stars: 30 taels per month, double the two months at the end of the year, if you die in battle, your descendants will receive it for another 10 years. In addition, the imperial court appointed a concubine every 10 years, and the emperor gave a general uniform of Mingguang armor, a pair of carved bows, and a carriage, and dined at the same table with the emperor once a year.
Kings 1 to 5 stars: 35 taels per month for military salaries, and twice for two months at the end of the year, if you die in battle, your descendants will receive it for another 10 years. In addition, the imperial court appointed a concubine every 10 years, and gave the emperor a general uniform, a treasure bow and a carriage, and dined at the same table with the emperor once a year.
And entered the training and assessment system for general-level officers, and has risen step by step and soared in the army. ”
"All military ranks above gold shall be awarded after the double review of the Inspection Yuan and the Falcon Dragon Guard before the military rank medal can be issued and registered."
After Li Feng finished speaking, the imaginary cheers did not come, the atmosphere was not as warm as before, and even the audience was a little blind, and after a while, I don't know which junior officer took the lead, and the voice of gratitude sounded.
"Your Majesty Shengming, Great Qin Ten Thousand Years, Your Majesty Ten Thousand Years."
Smiling awkwardly, Li Feng signaled to step back and continue to let Li Bin preside over the rest of the process.
This behavior of the soldiers is understandable.
Speaking of this series of systems, if it is the first time to hear it, I will be a little confused.
What's more, the soldiers themselves are not very educated, and it is normal that they do not understand well.
This is a process of slowly adapting and slowly advancing, and Li Feng didn't plan to say it verbally.
He had already formed a draft of the plan and handed it over to Bai Zhan, Su Du, Wang Chong, Han Xin, and Meng Rui, and it was their business how to advance it.
Individually call them aside for a short meeting and explain the details.
"I estimate that within a year, we will not have a war, and during this year, you have only one task, which is to implement the new military system for me, and then recruit troops."
