Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Seeing that everyone was talking a lot and it was obvious that the meeting could not go on, Wang Xiaolie had to order a rest.

In fact, at this time, no matter what Wang Xiaolie was thinking, his subordinates should be strictly prohibited from discussing.Otherwise, if the news reaches Zhao Gou's ears afterwards, it will be obvious that he is going to rebel.But Wang Xiaolie didn't care. He already had the strength to rebel, and Zhao Gou would have to guard against him no matter what.

Arriving in the side room, Wang Ruohai said: "Although what Zhang Yin said today has some truth, it is beyond the duties of a minister. If it is spread out afterwards, it will inevitably cause gossip. In the future, such matters are still not allowed to be discussed in the army. Alright."

Wang Xiaolie said: "That's because they are not allowed to say it, and they feel uncomfortable holding it in their hearts. After discussing it this time, it will be strictly prohibited in the future."

Wang Ruohai sighed: "When I first joined the army, I still had great opinions on Xuanfu. After these few years, Xuanfu handled things properly. The most important thing is that although I don't know why Xuanfu led the troops like this, But I always win, and I am convinced.”

Wang Xiaolie was silent for a while and then said: "Only when you know why you train like this can you truly understand."

That's how it was. Wang Xiaolie felt that he explained it very clearly, but others just didn't understand.As long as there is no special emphasis, the management of the army will gradually become no different from other armies.The same is true in politics. The officialdom always moves closer to the old ways.

They don't understand the truth and don't pay attention to improving themselves. Once their thoughts slip, they will move closer to the old ways.After all, the so-called old look is the so-called most suitable look based on many years of experience as officers and officials.

Among the officers, Wang Ruohai is like this, but what are the others like?

Wang Xiaolie sometimes really wishes that officials would be dumber and just listen to him.But the stupid officials didn't even understand what Wang Xiaolie meant, so they went out of their way to implement it.

After resting, we went back to the meeting.The officers discussed for a while and gradually calmed down, so no one mentioned the previous incident again.

After taking a look at the speech, Wang Xiaolie continued: "This battle was generally very successful. A total of 33 Jin troops were annihilated, the Jin's West Route Army was basically eliminated, and Marshal Du Nianhan and Marshal Nianhan were captured. Among the many officials under him, those who performed particularly well include Cao Zhiyan's division who had just entered the Taiyuan Basin, Zhang Chi who blocked the Jin army's return reinforcements at Yanmen Pass, and Jiang Min who defeated Xixia's Xixia army in Dongsheng Prefecture. Among them, Zhang Chi blocked the Jin army's reinforcements, It is not easy. The headquarters decided that Zhang Chi would be promoted from Zuo Yuhou of Jiang Min Division to the Commander-in-Chief of Cao Zhiyan Division. Cao Zhiyan would return to Luoyang and have another appointment."

Hearing this, Cao Zhiyan's heart skipped a beat.Could it be that Wang Xiaolie knew about the complaints he made with Yuan Gai two days ago?When I thought about it again, it was impossible.Not to mention that Yuan Gai was not a person who liked to tell stories, but even if he did, Wang Xiaolie would definitely not listen.

All I can say is that the time has really come.

After praising a few more troops, Wang Xiaolie changed the subject and said: "Of course, among the tens of thousands of troops, some fought well and some fought poorly. Shi Rong's Pan Yazhong regiment, Li Xing's regiment Cheng Liang's regiment, Zhang Yinshi's Ji Xing regiment, Dong Xianshi's Shi Jian regiment and Qu Yiteng's regiment, these regiments did not play well and had various problems. A summary meeting will be held later to discuss their Question." Having said this, Wang Xiaolie softened his tone.Said: "The reason why our army is getting better and better is that it does not hide its illnesses and is able to face the problems squarely. If the army does not fight well, the commanders of these regiments will be punished with varying degrees of severity. However, being punished does not mean that They are useless. As long as they can face the problem squarely and make corrections in time, they can still become excellent officers. Punishment is not a denial of people, but a denial of their previous behavior. The purpose of punishment is to cure illnesses and save people, and to correct their own mistakes in a timely manner. Mistake, get back on the right path.”

When it comes to rewards, it goes to the division, and when it comes to punishing, it goes to the regiment. This is not because there is something wrong with the chief officer of the division, but the result of comprehensive considerations.For example, Dong Xian was worse than others in war command, but all things considered, it was not appropriate to punish him.Because most of the division's commanders have their own backgrounds, punishments are relatively cautious.

Wang Xiaolie's idea was to replace the commanders of these divisions with officers he had trained, but there was a process.

It is not appropriate to talk too much about rewards and punishments in such a public place, so Wang Xiaolie gently explained it.

Wang Xiaolie said: "The following is about the transportation of the remains of the martyrs. Although more than 30 Jin troops were wiped out this time, our army also experienced heavy casualties. We must properly take care of the soldiers who died on the battlefield. thing."

In the past, most of the soldiers who died on the battlefield were buried on the spot or even thrown into the wilderness.When soldiers go to war, they are entering the gate of hell. They may never come back and are never heard from again.From the beginning, Wang Xiaolie requested that the body be transported back as much as possible.It is inconvenient to transport the body, so the bones have to be transported back.

When they go out to serve as soldiers, they have to see people in life and corpses in death, which greatly comforts their relatives in their hometown.The increase in recruits in the past two years is related to these measures.

Wang Xiaolie continued: "We are lucky this time. We won the battle and most of the bodies of the sacrificed soldiers can be found. With divisions as units, special supplies troops were sent to transport the bodies. Notify all states and counties in advance that the north is in Jiangzhou , in Luoyang, Dengzhou, and Caizhou in the south, and in Jingzhao Prefecture in the west, each county will send people to pick it up. After the county receives the body, it must be buried properly. If there is a family cemetery, it can be buried in the family cemetery or in the county. The cemetery of heroes and martyrs is arranged uniformly here. Those who do not have a family cemetery will be buried in the cemetery of heroes and martyrs."

Having said this, Wang Xiaolie picked up the cup and took a sip of water.Suddenly remembering something, he continued: "If there are decorated personnel in the county, the cemetery of heroes arranged by the county must be not far from the Heroes' Shrine. The gods in the Heroes' Shrine must be able to protect the cemetery."

After drinking the water, Wang Xiaolie put down his cup and said: "This matter is a big one, and all of you, the commander-in-chief and the governor, must pay attention to it. It's because the people who joined our army either disappeared without a trace after joining the army. I don't know. Life and death. Instead, there are always greetings from family, military salary is sent back, and even holidays are given, so the people can feel free to let their children and grandchildren join the army. If someone dies on the battlefield, our army will not care. What is the reason? We must let the army Our officers and soldiers live a great life and die gloriously! Let the people who throw their heads and blood on the battlefield die with something to return! Let their heroic spirits enjoy the fireworks of the world!"

The governors and governors below nodded.

This is what it should be.How can we manage our troops well if we cannot properly treat the soldiers who died in battle?
