Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 91 Collective Leadership
In the prefectural government office, Wang Xiaohun sat in the middle, with several commanders of the army on either side.

Putting the plans handed in by several people on the table, Wang Xiaohun said, "I have read all you have handed in. In my opinion, Zhang Jun and Niu Gao wrote the best. However, what Niu Gao wrote is the best. Don't write too many words, you'll have a big head to guess!"

Niu Gao stood up uneasily, crossed his hands and said, "The last general has been poor since he was a child, and he has never studied, so please forgive me, Zhizhou!"

Wang Xiaohun waved his hand and let Niu Gao sit down.Dao: "I know. But you have to know it yourself. If you don't know much, you have to work harder. Whether you are an official or a soldier, you must be literate. This matter is not negotiable."

Niu Gao said yes.Important to sit down.

Wang Xiaohun said: "What Zhang Jun wrote is strong in terms of starting off and marching, to camping and reconnaissance. It is very clear. Although Niu Gao's writing is not perfect, the main idea of ​​what to do with the army is accurate. After camping, how to scout, how to prepare for battle, you have your own experience. The other few can't say bad, they are just too mediocre. After being taught by instructor Lin, he completed this task according to what the instructor taught. "

Shao Ling said: "The last general is not smart, and he is ashamed of Xiaosheren."

Wang Xiaohun smiled and said: "What's not smart! Everyone has their own strengths, and naturally they have their own weaknesses. This aspect is a little bit worse, and the other side may be stronger, it's normal. We are together as a group. Knowing each person's strengths and weaknesses will make it difficult to gather the wisdom of everyone and do things well. Now it's a drill, and you may still have the mind to fight for strength. After you get familiar with it, especially in wartime, you can work closely together. Giving full play to their respective strengths will have unimaginable benefits.”

Xie Linong said: "I heard people say that when the Jin people fight, they all gather their generals to discuss matters together before the war. It is necessary to understand the discussion, and each has its own division of labor, so that the battle is brave and invincible, and there will be no confusion. What Xiaosheren said is that it is the way of the Jin people. ?"

Hearing this, Wang Xiaohun shook his head: "What kind of Jinren's method? This is true of anything in the world. If there is a major event, it must be fully discussed first, listen to the opinions of everyone, and form a collective opinion. Everyone understands that the What kind of thing did he do, and what he is responsible for. The important political affairs in the court are not like this? It's just that the military does not let his subordinates know about the importance of military aircraft."

Speaking of this, Wang Xiaolie straightened his thoughts and said: "The Jin people originated from the mountains and rivers, and lived by fishing and hunting. Before the Liao Dynasty was destroyed, there was no country, no officials, and the population was small, almost no different from savages. Said To be honest, back in 2000, we Han people were like this. Now the army of the Song Dynasty can’t defeat the Jin people. There are many reasons, but we can’t guess randomly. If there is something wrong, we will correct it. But what to change and how to change it depends on our hearts You must have an idea. You can’t just look at how the golden man is, and you have to do what you want. Many of the birth girls are still ruthless and bloody, should you learn? Isn’t that a step backwards! Knowing in your heart is the most important thing!”

Several people stared blankly at Wang Xiaohun, not knowing what to say for a while.Indeed, the Jin people originated from the mountains and rivers, and their production and lifestyle are very primitive.But on the battlefield, Jin Ren is not afraid of death and is invincible.Not only the Song army could not defeat the Jin, but also the Liao army.Or, in terms of battlefield performance alone, the Golden Army at the beginning may have been the most powerful army in the past few hundred years.Even the later Mongolian army may not have been so powerful when it first started.Many Song generals consciously believed that the Jin army was so powerful because they were primitive enough.

This is a general problem.There is no complete and independent political theory and military theory, and many generals understand the problem from perceptual knowledge.Instinctively, they believe that generals should be bold, decisive, and lethal, not indecisive, and not benevolent to women.Even some generals will deliberately eat human flesh and skin, and regard this as their own characteristics of deterring others.

For example, in "Yijian Zhi", Yang Zheng, a famous general at this time, raised dozens of concubines in his family.If you are a little unsatisfactory, you will kill him with a stick, peel off the human skin and hang it up.At this time, Yue Fei's Bi Jin, his son is the famous general Bi Zaiyu.Bi Zaiyu has made great achievements on the battlefield, but he likes to eat human flesh.There are multiple sources of this ethos.One is handed down from the Five Dynasties, and the other is learned from Liao and Jin Dynasties.

When Wufu is in power, this kind of anti-civilization behavior often occurs, and even the world is accustomed to it.For example, in the famous novel "Water Margin", the heroes will be drunk at every turn.In this era, it is not considered anti-human, and some people even talk about it.

Anti-civilization has no good results.Civilization will triumph over barbarism, even in war.Even if civilization is sick for a while, as long as it can persevere and correct its own problems, barbarism will fail.

Wang Xiaolie was very vigilant about admiring and learning Jin Jun's behavior and thoughts in the army, and was on guard everywhere.If you can't beat the Jin army, then learn and train the methods of defeating the Jin army.But don't let yourself down, don't correct your own problems, but learn from Jin Jun's behavior.

After slowing down, Wang Xiaohun said: "There are many reasons why this dynasty could not defeat the Jin Army. I know that many people think that the Jin Army can fight because they are primitive enough and savage enough. The Jin Army also thinks the same way, Therefore, they will capture and give birth to the Jurchen as their own elite soldiers. However, we human beings have come step by step from the rough road to the blue thread, and they are always moving forward. If they retreat, the human beings are sick. The golden soldiers broke the Kaifeng Mansion, first of all, they did If we can fight. If we can't fight, we can't destroy Liao in a short period of time and then break Kaifeng. And the reason why we can't beat the Jinren is not because we are not barbaric enough, but because there is something wrong with our army and our military system. The problem, just solve the problem, don't think about it!"

Seeing Wang Xiaohun's dignified expression, several people hurriedly said yes.

Looking at the crowd, Wang Xiaohun said: "We are studying together and practicing together, we are looking for the problem of the army, not just which one to compare. If you don't realize this, it means that you haven't really entered the state!"

Several people called it.

Shao Ling, Xie Linong, Cao Zhiyan, Yu Huan and Niu Gao couldn't help looking at Zhang Jun together.After listening to what he said in the restaurant, he didn't expect to understand what Zhang Jun was thinking.

After speaking, Wang Xiaohun picked up the plan written by several people.Dao: "Every one of you wrote, I have made comments. First of all, the comments are only my opinions, which may or may not be correct. I will give you three days to eat and live together, and use these plans as a reference and discuss. Come up with a more suitable exercise plan. Don't be lazy, you must take it seriously!"

Several people listened and hurriedly crossed their hands to sing a promise together.

Wang Xiaohun said: "There are too many affairs in the state, and I don't have time to be with you. So I can only take a look and write a few comments. It's up to you to discuss which ones are suitable and which ones don't. Don't worry too much. We will implement the plan in the future.”

Shao Ling whispered: "Xiao Sheren, don't you have to look at the plan in three days?"

Wang Xiaohun said, "What did I look at? You've made your own plan, can't you do it yourself?"

Shao Ling hurriedly said: "Naturally you did a good job. Xiao Sheren can rest assured."

Wang Xiaohun thought about it for a while, and then said: "Actually, there is a name for doing this."

Shao Ling said: "I don't know what the name is?"

Wang Xiaohun said: "This is called collective leadership. Before the matter, whether it is political or military, a full discussion should be conducted first. Based on everyone's opinions, a decision should be formed and then implemented. The army is not only led by one person or a few people. It depends on the wisdom of everyone. The general is the person who organizes the discussion and finally decides the decision. When the decision is formed, from the general to the generals below, all the way to each soldier, it must be strictly implemented according to the decision. After such a decision is formed, can Strict discipline is required!"

Everyone nodded in unison.He seemed to understand, but he didn't seem to understand.

Collective leadership is a system formed in later generations, and it is carried out layer by layer from top to bottom.From the most senior leadership decision, to the "Zhuge Liang Meeting" held by the soldiers before the war, they are closely linked.A big battle plan was broken down into layers like this.What is determined to bow to me is not worth mentioning in front of such a collective leadership, it seems like a joke.

As he gradually became familiar with the system of the army taught by Coach Lin, Wang Xiaohun began to intentionally add the experience of later generations.When these experiences gradually became a system, officers and soldiers gradually became habits, and the new army gradually began to take shape.
