A journey to the heavens starting from the Red Mansion

Chapter 122 Building an Army
After the army was established, the arrangement of military positions was immediately announced. Basically, those serving as officers were disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect.

This is to allow the army to form combat effectiveness faster, and also to better control the army. It is understandable to kill two birds with one stone.

The same was true for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at the beginning, and no one could say anything wrong.

Ever since the Xiaoyao Sect saw Lin Yao's extraordinary power, under the leadership of Wu Yazi, Tianshan Tonglao and Wang Yuyan, they were also ready to follow him all the way to the dark side.

The sect's habit of doing things efficiently is also very suitable for this kind of business. Tianshan Tonglao previously controlled tens of thousands of people in 36 holes and 72 islands. It was easy to manage these thousands of people.

After the establishment of the army was completed, Lin Yao improved the quality of the army's food and provided enough meat to feed the army.

In the early stage, there were material support from other worlds, in the middle stage, it relied on the wealthy landlords who hoarded money during the famine years when food was scarce, and in the later stage, it relied on farming.

At the same time, a strict work and rest schedule was enacted.

At five o'clock in the morning, the whole army got up after hearing the bugle, put on their clothes and folded their quilts, arranged their queues, and then collectively exercised for half an hour until six o'clock in the morning.

Then give half an hour to wash, eat breakfast, solve the three urgent problems, and clean and tidy.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the assembly began.First, conduct a queue exercise for an hour.Because these 1000 people have already been trained, there is no need to train them separately.

New recruits coming in from now on will be trained intensively before being assigned.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the formation training ended and weapons training began. It took another hour to practice spear assassination, shield raising and release, bow and crossbow shooting, etc.

At [-] o'clock in the morning, the training ended, and the entire army had one and a half hours to have lunch and take a lunch break.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the entire army held a one-hour literacy course. The literate Xiaoyao sect disciples led the soldiers who were not highly literate to continue learning.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, depending on the progress, the first step is to strengthen the formation training. Once the tacit understanding is engraved in the bones, they will then combine it with weapons to practice military formations for half an hour.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the whole army had dinner, solved three urgent problems, took a short rest, and had free activities in the military camp to play some ball games brought by Lin Yao.

Those who are highly motivated can also go to the library to view various interesting books. The only requirement is that they must not be deliberately damaged.

At [-] p.m., study of various knowledge, including military discipline, military skills, etc.Lin Yao added military disciplines that must be strictly observed, supplemented by various political and ideological educations.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the entire army gathered again according to the new organization and conducted exchange activities for about half an hour.

With a squad as the basic unit, the squad leader and soldiers gather together to communicate and talk about anything, mainly to enhance mutual understanding.

Let them realize that they are all of the same class and have a common enemy.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the entire army turned off the lights and went to bed on time, waiting for the order to get up the next day.

In ancient times, a soldier who could train every day was considered an elite soldier. If he could persist in doing so, he would be a strong army.

Then, Lin Yao promulgated the appropriate military decree that he had thought of so far, and took out an electronic speaker to read it to Su Xinghe in public.

For example, soldiers are paid, those who work hard at training are rewarded, and those who work hard and excel are rewarded. In addition to spiritual rewards, there are also material rewards.

At the same time, those who cheat and cheat will be severely punished. In serious cases, they may even be kicked out of the military camp and lose all the benefits of their military relatives.

By providing rewards and punishments and being consistent with your words, you can gain the trust of these soldiers.

Among them, several particularly important provisions are highlighted and explained.

First, soldiers' pay is paid publicly every month and is paid directly from the quartermaster appointed by Lin Yao.

Pay the money with one hand and record it with the other. It is clean and clear, with no default, no more than the hands of any officer.

Lin Yao controlled the finances to prevent the emergence of warlord separatism when the territory expanded in the future.

If corruption occurs among quartermasters, both officers and soldiers can report it, and offenders will be executed.

Second, the food expenses in the army are made public. How much money the Huotou Army spends on buying food every day must be disclosed to the outside world. It must be written on paper and posted in a designated area to let all soldiers in the army know.And for this amount of money, Lin Yao will send people from time to time to investigate the accuracy of the material prices.

Once there is corruption, the lighter ones will have their earnings confiscated and kicked out of the military camp, and the more severe ones will be beheaded.

Third, and a very critical one, officers are not allowed to abuse or physically punish soldiers.

This article not only takes care of the lower-level soldiers, but also restricts the military law of high-level generals.We must truly ensure that everyone in the military is willing to abide by military law and maintain the authority of military law.

The main thing is to weaken the status of officers in the army as much as possible. Rejecting lynching is a very important point.

Lynching can build dignity, and prohibiting this behavior can in a sense reduce the hill.

Soldiers who make mistakes can be punished by military law, but if an officer insults or physically punishes a soldier, he will be dismissed immediately.

This is an iron law that no one can touch and no one can shake.

Officers can punish soldiers for violating military law, but they cannot use lynching for personal reasons.

This article of military discipline is essentially to enhance the personal sense of honor of soldiers, to resist the enslavement of soldiers, and to improve the status of military law.

Otherwise, it's like a chicken with its feet on the ground, and likes to be slapped from top to bottom, all the way to the bottom.The general fan will fan the lieutenant general, the lieutenant general will fan the major general, the major general will fan the assistant officer, the assistant officer will fan the lieutenant officer, and the lieutenant officer will fan the xiaobing.

It is also known as the spiritual infusion stick, the care and guidance of the seniors to the juniors.

In a feudal society, even if Lin Yao and the people around him have high ideological consciousness, their subordinates will still be infected with old habits.

Once affected, the maximum limit for this army may be the Beiyang New Army.

Military punishment is Lin Yao's focus. He doesn't know how to train the army and manage the army, but he understands that there is no rule without rules.

He is the final guarantee of that red line. As long as someone dares to try to cross it, it depends on whether their attempt can withstand the thunder that crushes everything.

In a well-organized and hierarchical army, the organizational ties are interests.

Soldiers abide by Lin Yao's regulations. Even if they unfortunately die, he will work hard to ensure that the families of these soldiers have food and clothing.

"Since you follow me, you must abide by the rules. These rules are not only for you, but I will also abide by them. If you make a mistake, the military law is as high as a mountain. If I make a mistake, the military law is as high as a mountain!"

Lin Yao stood in front of the entire army with a cold face and made his oath to the entire army.

"If you violate this oath, heaven and earth will not tolerate it."

Iron discipline is a very important feature of the people's army. "Follow me" and "Follow me" are not the same.

Then he raised his right hand, and the power of the dragon blast shot straight into the sky. The pillar of fire instantly shocked everyone present.
And these peasant soldiers who had been training here for a period of time looked at Lin Yao excitedly, and finally understood why their general was this young man.

It was a magical scene, and the people in the back row could faintly feel the blazing temperature, not to mention the soldiers in the front row.

It destroyed their last fear of the feudal imperial power - the "Emperor", because there was also a great being behind them.

After announcing a series of things and integrating people's hearts, it was already evening, and the Huotou Army had already prepared dinner for tonight.

White rice is paired with fragrant pork belly, stir-fried vegetables with heavy salt and oil, and seaweed and egg soup.

If you have enough meat, you will be full of rice.

Besides, except for the occasionally different dishes, the food from now on will be within this standard.

These soldiers originally thought that the food they had eaten before was already very good, but they did not expect that after the young general arrived, he actually let them enjoy the meal at the level of a landlord.
