Chapter 209: Fooling His Subordinates' Knowledge

However, the discerning people found that Li Xian's naval training method was very problematic, and the naval warfare of this era had developed from the traditional gang fighting to artillery warfare, that is, the two sides used artillery to greet each other from a distance of several hundred meters, instead of going to the front to engage in broadside battles, jumping onto the enemy ship and shouting and shouting to kill. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the training of the army, Li Xian attaches great importance to foresight, and directly starts from trench warfare, but in the training of the navy, Li Xian leads his men to jump from one ship to another all day long, and then fights, which is a typical pirate warfare method, rather than a regular naval warfare method.

After another period of time, Master Bai came again, officially appointed Li Xian as the head of the "East China Sea Island Security Regiment", and by the way, he turned the Mixed Yuan Guan Guard into a semi-regular official army, and also brought a letter of encouragement from the Governor, so that the East China Island Security Regiment could make meritorious contributions in the war against the British Navy.

Li Xianke politely sent Master Bai away, and then summoned all the cadres above the platoon level under him for a meeting.

At the time, no one at the time, including Li Xian, was aware of the importance of this meeting, but many years later, the meeting was known by scholars as the "East China Sea Resolution" and was considered an important opportunity for the establishment of the Chinese Navy.

"Governor Lin of Guangzhou named our escort team the Donghai Island Security Regiment, and said that as long as we behave well, we can become real officers and soldiers, and we can also make me an official commander, a military attache of the seventh grade.

Let's discuss what you think of this. Li Xian briefly introduced the contents of Governor Lin's two letters before and after, explained the situation, and then asked his officers to speak.

"It's not impossible to become an official soldier from a common man, but won't we become a military household in this way?" said Wang Xiaoming, the commander of the second company, worriedly.

The military households of the Qing Dynasty were subordinate to military officers, there was almost no personal freedom, and there were many restrictions on doing various livelihoods in peacetime.

"Don't worry, don't say that we are just an informal security group now, even if we become regular sailors, we are just recruited soldiers, and we will not become military households.

Everyone knows that being a military household is not good, and there is no reason for us to jump into the fire pit by ourselves. Li Xian explained.

"So that's the case, then I'm relieved. Wang Xiaoming breathed a sigh of relief and said in a daze.

"After we become a security regiment or a naval division, will we be paid more salaries?" Ma Daha, the commander of the artillery company, was more concerned about money and asked enthusiastically.

"No matter what our official status is, the big guy's salary is paid by me, and it has nothing to do with the government.

In other words, no matter how your identity changes, your monthly income will not change.

Or, if someone is willing to give up their current household registration and become a military household, I can consider discussing with the senior officials above and adding some military pay or something. Li Xian's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile.

"So that's the case, so it doesn't make much sense, it just sounds good, and it's not affordable at all. Madahar muttered in disappointment.

Some of the officers below also spoke one after another, asking what impact this title would have on them after the change, but Li Xian only said that the salary, military salary, etc. would not change.

As for the changes after becoming a sailor, that is, Li Xian can get an official hat, and the people under him are just soldiers recruited by his subordinates, unless someone is willing to give up his current status as a good citizen and become a military household in the imperial court, there will be no increase in salary.

Li Xian's words are true or false, anyway, these escort officers under him will not delve into it, let alone question it.

These young men who had just become officers discussed for a while, and felt that it would be more face-saving to speak out after becoming a regular army, but since the treatment and salary remained unchanged, it was not of much significance, and it was better than nothing.

Li Xian listened carefully to the thoughts of these people under him, but his eyes flashed.

It turned out that there were many disagreements between Li Xian and the court officials, even to the point of drawing swords against each other, but the ordinary guards did not know about this.

In the eyes of the ordinary people and the members of the escort team in Leizhou Bay, the Mixed Yuan Guan Escort Team has been committed to fighting pirates since its rise, and has never harassed the people along the coast, and even never asked about the sugar boats in the three counties of Leizhou, and also helped the fishermen to catch fish and resist pirates, etc., and was a first-class good person.

Therefore, the escort team has always considered its team to be a kind team supported by the government, and has never known that it is a more dangerous and unacceptable existence than pirates in the eyes of the government.

Li Xian was worried that the guards had too many thoughts, and they had been concealing the conflict between the mixed yuan concept and the government, only saying that he had deep ties with the officials of the Guangzhou government, and often instilled the concept of serving the country and the people to the guards, and asked the guards to become the Yuejia army of the Qing Dynasty and a team that the people could trust.

Anyone who reads a book will understand how out of place it was to promote the anti-Jin hero Yuejiajun in the Qing Dynasty, but the simple guards couldn't think of this at all, and they were usually full of a sense of justice and wholeheartedly obeyed the various military discipline requirements set by Li Xian.

The treatment of the escort is good, and they are all simple hunters and fishermen, and under the condition that Li Xian attaches great importance to military discipline from the beginning, the discipline is quite good, and there will never be a phenomenon of robbing the nearby people of money or food without giving them money by force.

It's just that there are advantages and disadvantages, Li Xian fooled his subordinates into good soldiers who love the country and the people, but he also made his subordinates not have much interest in rebellion and other things, and if they want to engage in some illegal things, they must carry out all kinds of fooling, rather than simply giving some orders.

Although it was clear that their own income would not be affected in any way after becoming regular, several officers present were very enthusiastic about talking about it, and showed great yearning for the matter of becoming officials.

Li Xian was listening, but his heart became more and more uncomfortable, according to the performance of these people, if he wants to directly pull out to be a pirate and devote himself to the great cause of rebellion, I am afraid it will be a little difficult.

Li Xian looked at his subordinates with a smile and made all kinds of remarks, no one else was anything, and Ma Daha, the commander of the artillery company, was finally a little clever and saw that something was not right.

"This court is also a little stingy, if you want to give our battalion commander an official, you will be a big official, or a general or something, but a small one is nothing.

Besides, we have eliminated so many pirates in Leizhou Bay, and this credit is also very great, and we should give the name of the security group first, and then give the name of the sailor according to the situation, which is really not a son of man. ”

Ma Daha is a fighter in the big boss, and he can be regarded as a discerning man, and he can see that Li Xian's expression is a little wrong, but he only thinks that Li Xian is not very satisfied with the official and the young, so he tries his best to hold up his own boss.

"According to the rules, this official should be done a little bit from a young age.

Sun Wukong was so capable back then that he became the Monkey King, didn't he also start from the petty official Bi Ma Wen?" Wang Xiaoming was a real dumbfounder, and he tried to explain with his little written knowledge.

"In other words, this Bi Ma Wen is not a petty official, is he? In charge of all the good horses in the sky, this real power is not small, and it is also a very oily job.

I don't understand why Sun Wukong is unhappy. "It's even more ridiculous at the bottom, and directly discuss the size of Bi Ma Wen's official position.
