Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 2878: What can be solved by the soldiers

Liu Muzhi shook his head: "Forget it. Confucian scholars like Fan Ning do not have practical political abilities. It is okay for them to be teachers in schools and Hengxu. Coming to the army will only add chaos. I will pay attention to this matter. Just deal with it. However, what I just wanted to say is that in addition to the children of aristocratic families who have come to mix military skills, there are also several types of newcomers. They may now have a tendency to conflict for the sake of merit and superiority. Be careful."

Liu Yu hooked up his mouth: "You mean, the former Tianshi Dao tribes represented by the Shen family brothers, and Hu Fan, Fu Hongzhi, the descendants of Huanchu, and foreign warriors like Wang Zhenye and Mao Dezu? "

Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, the composition of the old Beifu army is very simple, with the Jingkou people as the core and some refugees in the Lianghuai area. Later, although a lot of horse thieves and bandits were recruited, they were still in the army after all. Not long. Later, after the Beifu Army was disbanded, after your reconstruction, they could no longer rely on looting as before, so they withdrew one after another. Most of them were left under the hand of Zhuge Changmin and Liu Xile. They led the troops. Governing the army is not the same as you. After the victory, it is still partially allowed to let go for a while."

Liu Yu sighed: "This is the trouble. Although I set the military discipline, Changmin and Xi Le have very old qualifications, especially Xi Le and I are the Big Three, and they are also responsible for guarding Yuzhou against the Northern Wei Dynasty and the West in the north. It’s difficult for me to interfere more with his leadership in the missions of the two great powers of the post-Qin Hulu."

Speaking of this, Liu Yu turned and smiled slightly: "For the time being, I will not talk about the two of them, nor about the thieves of the Beifu army. I will only talk about the ones after I was rebuilt. Indeed, as you said, I am destroying the peace of the demon in Wudi. After setting Huanchu, the Beifu Army also let go of the threshold. It is no longer dominated by the original Jingkou locals, as long as they are talented and brave men, they can join."

"Among them, the Shen brothers are the main Wu Dirui people. Many of them are people who participated in the rebellion of the Tianshi Dao in the past, and later reformed, because the Shen brothers defected to me very early, and their previous experience of the Tianshi Dao It can also gain the trust of many veterans of the Celestial Taoism who want to reform and be willing to forgive us through them."

"After all, Liu Laozhi's subordinates used to burn and slaughter in Wudi. They had a bad reputation. They also slaughtered many celestial masters and Taoists who had surrendered. At that time, many people would rather hide in the mountains and starve to death than dare to come out and surrender. In addition, they also had a lot of blood from Dajin officials and soldiers, and they were afraid that the court would be liquidated afterwards. So they saw that after the surrender of the Shen brothers, they not only pardoned their sins, but also got mixed up well, they came to me, Express to the court the desire to reform and revitalize."

"And I also took advantage of the trend and placed many of these people under their men. I usually became the tenants of the Shen family. During the war, I could draw thousands of light soldiers to follow. This time the Linqu battle. , They came in handy. However, the proportion of people who died in battle was also the highest among all ministries. After all, the light infantry was in a close-to-death battle with the opposing team's most elite armored rider. It was very heroic."

   Liu Muzhi nodded: "Then you say, these Wudi light soldiers, do you listen to you or the Shen family? They are willing to fight to the death, do you believe in you or believe in the Shen family?"

   Liu Yu's expression changed, and he was speechless for the time being.

Liu Muzhi sighed softly: "We have talked about this issue before. The soldiers are the generals, and they are in contact with the low-level sergeants all day long. Naturally, these sergeants only recognize the mid-level generals who can be seen every day. I don’t know the emperor and the court. , You may not even recognize you. That’s how you robbed your military mind from Liu Laozhi’s hands. Today, it seems that you have moved towards another repetition.

   Liu Yu frowned: "However, in this position, it is impossible for me to eat and sleep with the soldiers every day and practice together. How can this matter be solved?"

   Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "In fact, the soldiers really care about their own vital interests. Just now you announced a high military salary of 30 times. The soldiers will definitely cheer for news like this, but..."

Having said this, the fat on his face jumped, sighed, and poured a glass of water into the glass in front of him, gently put it to his mouth, took a sip, and said: "The soldiers are from If the generals of the army know the news, they will support it even more and worship those who tell them the news. I am afraid that not many soldiers will think that this is the treatment you are fighting for."

Liu Yu hooked the corner of his mouth: "I understand what you mean. It's just that there are tens of thousands of people in the army. I am unlikely to announce this to the whole army. Just like I can't command a hundred thousand army by myself. The first-level army will issue orders in the future. It is impossible to say that they usually rely on them for commanding and ordering. This kind of announcement rewards will be my own."

Liu Muzhi’s eyes flashed coldly: “There are many things ordered and cannot be avoided, but announcing the reward is a major event. There is only one such thing. You can announce such a thing together with the whole army when you go to the Sworn Master. If you really want to realize your ideals~www.wuxiaspot.com~, you must have power in your hands. The current power is not enough. You have to further seize the highest power. If you say that the power is unique, you have to..."

Liu Yu waved his hand and interrupted Liu Muzhi: "Okay, fat man, I understand what you mean. We will not discuss this issue for the time being, but what you said makes sense. This time the military discussion, I also think that I am talking to me now. The soldiers at the bottom are a bit out of touch, and we need to strengthen our contact. But you said that the Shen family brothers and other generals are slowly forming a situation where they are holding soldiers. I really need to pay attention to it, and I will try to reduce the number of generals in the future. Long-term contact with the sergeants, so as to avoid segregation of the army."

Liu Muzhi nodded: "Take it far, take it back, the Shen family brothers are the representatives of Wu Di generals, while Hu Fan, Fu Hongzhi and even Zhu Lingshi, and Zhu Chaoshi are the representatives of the old Jingzhou soldiers. The current force distribution is also the same. In the past, most of the soldiers of the Jingzhou Army were under their subordinates. Hu Fan’s situation was a bit special. He took over Tan Pingzhi’s Divine Arrow assault camp and joined the army by your side."

"But the Zhu family's subordinates are a large number of Jingzhou veterans. Although they are called Beifu Army, they are quite different from our training, discipline, and combat methods. They are just like the Wudi light soldiers under the Shen family. It is also completely different from the combat training of the old Beifu Army. You still have no way to change it by changing generals. Do you have a solution to this problem?"
