Chapter 1122 Stillbirth
Therefore, now the civilization of the third universe has really encountered an unprecedented embarrassing state, and it is very important and can even be said to be related to the safety of the front-line fire control positions of various wormhole passages, and there is a serious shortage of officers and soldiers in the front-line fire control positions, which can already be described as a crisis.
It is necessary to know the various plans for comprehensively transforming the wormhole defense system and allocating the corresponding number of front-line fire control personnel, which is the most effective and lowest energy-consuming way to improve the entire wormhole defense system.
This also means that a sufficient number of soldiers in front-line fire control posts are necessary, and the shortage of alternates for these posts must also be resolved in a timely and reasonable manner.
However, the problem is that the casualty rate of soldiers in front-line firepower posts is too large, which is almost a well-known thing within the civilization of the third universe, even if the people at the bottom want to join the army to seek a path with long-term development potential for themselves, but in view of the fact that the casualties in these posts are so large, there are very few people who dare to earn this money with their heads.
Even if the military has increased the allowance for soldiers in these positions several times, most of the people think about the simple concept that no matter how much money they make, they must have their lives to spend, and the soldiers who are impressed by this treatment can be described as quite rare, and it is impossible to make up for the shortage of alternate soldiers.
Fortunately, the number of soldiers on duty in these positions in the Third Universe Civilization, and the number of soldiers waiting to join the duty sequence at any time after training and learning are still relatively sufficient, and there is not enough personnel in a short period of time, so there is still a certain amount of time to solve this problem, and it is not to the point of burning eyebrows.
In order to solve the problem of replenishing the supply of soldiers in this post, the military high-level of the Third Universe Civilization even held a special leadership meeting to discuss solutions, and some senior generals proposed to further improve the treatment of soldiers in the corresponding posts, increase efforts to carry out key propaganda in the recruitment process, and the soldiers who still survive after the end of their term of duty in this post can even be given better treatment and more usual promotion channels internally by the military。
It's just that although the general's solution is a grand avenue, and once it is really implemented, it will definitely have an immediate effect, but in the end, it was not recognized by the majority at the high-level meeting, let alone entered the implementation stage.
The high-level leaders of the Third Universe Civilization naturally have their reasons, and they must know that the reason why the Third Universe Civilization finally chose to add front-line fire control posts to supplement the loopholes of each wormhole defense system is not because there are no other effective methods to implement, but the most important reason is that after considering various plans and methods, the cost of this option is the lowest.
Not only is it that the death allowance or retirement subsidy given by the Third Universe civilization after the soldiers of the corresponding post die or survive, but even if the surrounding values such as the social cost and social benefits of the dead soldier are added, this option is still the cheapest after all kinds of schemes.
It is precisely because the civilization of the third universe took a fancy to the low cost advantage of this plan that it finally chose this plan to implement it, and now it wants to supplement and modify this plan, and it is still a cost problem that cannot be bypassed.
In the past, it was necessary to increase the treatment of soldiers in the corresponding posts several times and several times, and to a certain extent, it has greatly increased the cost of implementing this plan, and the military high-level people saw that even in this case, this plan was still the cheapest and most effective, so they pinched their noses and chose to bear this cost.
But if the high-ranking general's proposal is followed, the trouble that needs to be dealt with is far more than just a hidden danger in the cost of capital.
If it is only necessary to increase the treatment of soldiers in the corresponding posts by one or two times again, this is still within the range of the military's tolerance, but the problem is that the danger of these posts is too high, and the people have developed a strong resistance to this, and it is almost impossible to find a sufficient number of soldiers of sufficient level simply by relying on the advantage of salary and treatment.
The biggest benefit given by the senior general is not only the visible increase in salary, but also the more attractive conditions he gave to those soldiers after completing their tenure in front-line fire control positions, more favorable internal treatment in the military, and even opening a smoother internal promotion channel for them, which is what many high-ranking military officials really oppose the most.
You must know that under normal circumstances, ordinary soldiers in the Third Universe Civilization have a certain number of years of service, because the danger of front-line fire control posts is too high, it is impossible for normal soldiers to stay in these posts for too long, generally speaking, they will be rotated to other posts after a maximum of two or three years of duty.
It's not that the military's top brass are unwilling to increase the number of years of duty for soldiers in this post, but the danger in this post is really too high, and the more excellent and high-level soldiers are, once they stay in this post for a long time, they will often become a thorn in the side of the enemy's ships, and they will be pulled out by the other side quickly!
Although the soldiers on this post can easily switch positions between the various starry sky fire bases with the supply ships, in order to confuse the enemy's reconnaissance and locking, but as the saying goes, if you walk too much at night, you will eventually meet ghosts, once you are targeted by the enemy warship, the mortality rate is really swishing upward, and if you miss a little bit of carelessness, it will often usher in the fate of death.
The third cosmic civilization uses these soldiers, in order to make them play a role, the stronger their lethality on the battlefield, the greater their influence, the more in line with the military's ideas, in order to get greater benefits, those who fish in troubled waters on the battlefield and fail to meet the military assessment standards will not only be reduced in more aspects, but will also be deliberately targeted, and will be sent to other dangerous combat links to be exiled after being relieved of their duties in the fire control post, which can be described as thankless, and the mortality rate is also not low, but the treatment is very different.
Therefore, even if they know that it is easy to lose their lives if they are too high-profile on the battlefield, the soldiers in the front-line firepower control positions of the Third Universe Civilization must still maximize their performance and make the best results, in exchange for various preferential treatment within the military and the benefits of reduced tenure.
Under this kind of internal military system, after only two or three years of duty, the soldiers in the front-line fire control post have often suffered heavy casualties, making this post the most prohibitive death position, and it is conceivable that if every soldier in this post has to serve for three or five years, then there will be no living people left in this post, and no one will dare to challenge this post at that time.
In the past, when soldiers completed their tenure in the front-line fire control post and survived, if the service period did not expire, they were often transferred to other ordinary positions in the military.
But even so, this is not promising in the development of the army, because in the interior of the cosmic civilization, compared to the ordinary profession in society, the treatment of the military is really coveted, just imagine that even ordinary soldiers in the army as long as they survive for a few years can save a good value, let alone improve the treatment of senior officers, that is a real step to the sky for the people at the bottom, how many low-level soldiers think about the opportunity to develop in the army, but this is simply an unrealistic luxury for most low-level soldiers。
You must know that within the third universe civilization, ordinary soldiers are not lifelong occupations, and the length of service is only linked to the rank and position of officers and soldiers.
This kind of opportunity to be promoted to a relatively high rank within the military and to be able to serve and develop within the army for a long time is not something that ordinary soldiers can hope for, but can only be obtained by those who have power, connections, and abilities within the army, and who are truly irreplaceable personnel in positions or the children of certain high-level factions and systems in the army.
For example, some military families who have joined the army for generations and have high-ranking officials in the family can be like fish in water in the army, where do ordinary soldiers have such opportunities?
Similar to the practice of serving in a front-line fire control post for a certain number of years, and then transferring to an ordinary post is a common unspoken rule in the army, one of the most commonplace suppression methods, even if ordinary soldiers want to get a chance to give full play to their strengths, it is difficult and difficult, normally after the test of blood and fire, and the test of actual combat, such soldiers should be promoted and reused, but in the army of the third universe civilization, such soldiers are often only hidden in the snow, and they are kicked out after reaching the service period。
It is precisely because this kind of unspoken rule in the army has long been known to everyone in the Third Universe civilization, and ordinary people at the bottom know that they have no chance to get a long-term development opportunity in the army, so those people at the bottom of the Third Universe Civilization are full of utilitarianism in choosing such an option as joining the army.
After all, there is no chance of long-term development in the army, and for ordinary people, the military is naturally just an interest organization that exchanges life for money, and if you can't give people enough benefits and enough opportunities for long-term development, people will naturally not be willing to sacrifice their lives and forget their lives to fight.
The senior generals of the military proposed to open a more convenient and smooth ascent channel for soldiers in front-line fire control posts, which means that these low-level soldiers will no longer be suppressed by unspoken rules, and have the opportunity to hold more important and higher-level positions in the army.
If there is such an opportunity, then I am afraid that even if the danger of the front-line firepower control post is higher, then the low-level citizens of the Third Universe civilization are still willing to fight hard for it.
But it is a pity that this opening is too big, and it is simply intolerable for many high-level military officials, and naturally such a proposal was opposed by the majority of people, and in the end, it was naturally stillborn and could not be truly implemented.
You must know that because of the high-intensity combat pressure of the Third Universe Civilization over the years, many soldiers from low-level or even lower-middle-class families have crossed many levels of obstacles and become the backbone of the Third Universe Civilization Army.
With the passage of time, with the continuous continuation of war, such a phenomenon has become a phenomenon that cannot be ignored, which seriously affects the normal order within the military of the Third Universe civilization and challenges the traditional factional pattern of the military.
It must be known that before the rise of the ancient civilization, the military high-level of the third universe civilization also had officials in various important positions, large and small, which were all the ruling class in the third universe civilization or the children of the upper class, this is an order that is almost completely solidified, and the belonging of each high-level general is not only based on the ability and merits of the corresponding general, but also on the family, family, and forces behind the person.
This is true not only within the Third Universe civilization, but also within the other two major universe civilizations.
After all, the civilization level of the three major cosmic civilizations is there, not the same level of civilization, no matter how powerful your military generals are, how they can manage and use their strategies and make good use of troops, the fleets of interstellar civilizations can only kneel down when facing the warships of cosmic civilizations.
On the other hand, even if the internal order of the cosmic-level civilized military is re-established and the class is solidified, as long as the level of officers at all levels can reach the basic standards and can give full play to the combat power that combat ships should have, even if the high-level is really limited in ability, they will be invincible in foreign wars.
As for such a violent machine as the army, if there is even one possibility, the families and factions of the ruling class will have to try by all means to control it in their own hands, and now that the superiority of science and technology has greatly lowered the level requirements of officials at all levels, how can the rulers of the three major cosmic civilizations still be able to endure their instinctive thoughts? Naturally, they sit and eat the fruits according to their ranks, and they have to install their own people and their own forces to control the army.
