Chapter 1217 The Forgotten Nation

Cao Cao's prediction of Ma Chao was indeed not wrong. At the moment, in the Shangshutai, the important officials of the Ma family sat around, including Xun You and Li Ru, two big men from the Ministry of War, Bu Zhi who was in charge of recording abstracts, and Yang Fu who was dedicated to filling in the gaps. .Even Jia Xu, Lu Bu, Huang Fusong, Zhu Jun and other celebrities who have always been forgotten in people's sights are also high on the top.As for Liao Li, Peng Yang and other low-level students, they are not even qualified to attend the auditorium.

"Meng Qi, this time the Shangshu Province has issued an order to organize the front lines. In this way, each front line will do its own thing, and the governor and key ministers will have the power to take life and death. In the short term, although it is very beneficial to train troops to strengthen the country and deter the heroes, But if things go on like this, if the general in charge of the army has a different mind, the consequences will be..." These words are not something that ordinary subordinates can say, but those who have brains, vision, and qualifications to say these words are the ones who sit on the golden knife. After Ma Chao lowered his head, Lu Bu frowned after taking a mouthful of the loofah stick.

Ma Chao also sighed at this time, it was not because of Lu Bu's proposal, on the contrary, this important meeting of the Ma family was held this time to solve precisely this problem.The reason why he sighed was naturally because he might not be able to taste the taste of authentic mellow tobacco in this life.

Of course, there is one more worrying thing, which is that Ma Chao knows where the rumors about him robbing Sun Ce's wife spread in the streets and alleys of Chang'an. A strong xenophobic mood, every daughter-in-law smiled like a flower, warm and polite, even Lu Qiling and Han Ying learned to smile without showing their teeth.But behind the smiles, there were extreme vigilance and alienation. This kind of strange atmosphere made Ma Chao stay away from his backyard.

As for the rumor, Ma Chao doesn't need to guess, he can think that it is the plan of Cai Yan, Liu Yue, and Diao Chan, and the result of Lu Qiling, Han Ying, and Fu Shou's actions.The purpose of these women was nothing else, so they used the usual methods of the Ma family, using strong public opinion pressure to first block the possibility of Ma Chao getting close to Da Qiao, and then using the secret method of shadows to infiltrate and disintegrate the dissension step by step, and finally forced himself Da Qiao had to be invited out of Prince Yong's Mansion.

Only the daughter-in-law of the Ma family can do it by using the art of war and strategy on this kind of thing.Ma Chao shook his head, thinking that the messy and chaotic smoke floating in the sky was an excellent portrayal of his mood at the moment...

"Meng Qi?" The old fox coughed twice, looking at Ma Chao's constipated expression, he already guessed that his mind was wandering.Then he sighed silently, and said in a low voice, "I told you earlier that women are scarier than wolves in the wilderness...but you just turned the whole backyard into a wolf's den."

The atmosphere at Shangshutai suddenly became a little sad, Xun You, Li Ru, Yang Fu and other juniors did not dare to disobey Jia Xu's prestige, nor did they dare to speak to remind Ma Chao to return to the topic.Only after thinking that their husband and wife life is still harmonious, did they show a "fortunately so" expression.

"Ahem, father-in-law, don't worry too much. This meeting is because I have some immature ideas, and I want to discuss them with you. If there are no major mistakes, the entire Ma family will be smooth and smooth!" Ma Chao replied. Come to think of it, after giving Jia Huli a blank look, he continued to brag: "If this system is successful, it can be worth millions of lions!"

"Oh?!..." Lu Bu was taken aback. Although his desire to kill on the battlefield had faded a lot, he naturally became interested in military planning again: "I wonder what Meng Qi's plan is?"

"I want to reform the entire army in the next year—" Ma Chao said, "I want the Ma family's army to follow a standardized and professional process, and make the Ma family's army an absolute A militarized combat unit!"

There are so many new terms in these words, even though some of these people are used to Ma Chao's occasional incongruity, they are still at a loss when faced with these words.It was still Lu Bu, after throwing away the loofah stick, he asked in a daze, "What is standardization, professionalization, and militarization?"

"Professionalization means that the Ma family's regular combat power is only responsible for fighting. This point, the Ma family army has basically achieved it. But the battle in Chang'an shows that the Ma family army system still needs to be improved." Ma Chao didn't feel much about this, after all, in Chang'an It was an accident, and it left flaws when the Ma family took time out of Chang'an troops to conquer Yuan Shao.In other words, it was just an unconventional challenge in which tactics surpassed strategy, and mistakes were inevitable.

Then, Ma Chao smiled, and said with a special tone that only an insider can understand: "The so-called standardization means that the establishment, organization, and even supplies of all the troops of the Ma family should try to meet the same standard. The mid-level and upper-level officers of the war regiment who have been promoted due to their merits must be verified by the Ministry of Officials before being awarded and appointed by me. Except for extraordinary times, the front-line commanders generally only have the right to recommend, but not directly appoint."

The military system of the Ma family is built up layer by layer. The implementation of Ma Chao's standardization will first cut off the foundation of the self-respect of the frontline generals: after the separation of the military and the government, there will be no logistical supplies in Chang'an. , the entire army is like a python that has been pinched seven inches.Allowing the giant python to turn around can make waves, but once Chang'an exerts strength here, the giant python will immediately lose all energy and spirit.

Naturally, there is another possibility, just like Lu Bu, who won the heart of all soldiers with absolute force.When he has a different heart, he can bring a group of people to rob the house and establish himself as the king.But Ma Chao said later that the commander-in-chief no longer has the right to directly appoint. In this way, all mid-level and lower-level officers still obey the Ma family's military system. Knowing that they are working for the Ma family, it is better to kill the enemy bravely than to please the loyal superiors. In this way, even Lu Bu could no longer win over the hearts of the soldiers.

Looking at the frightened eyes of these foxes for a moment, they obviously figured out the deep meaning behind Ma Chao's move.Then Ma Chao put on a face similar to hypocrisy, and said: "Of course, in this way, the frontline commanders may be more restrained. The soldiers on the battlefield are dangerous and the fighting opportunities are fleeting. Therefore, I decided to give the front-line commanding general the authority to participate in the military's strategic planning, and when necessary, allow the front-line general to have the right to kill first and then play. In addition, in order to ensure the absolute prestige of the officers, all officers at the first level are entitled to the holiday right!"

False festival means to hold a festival talisman. Those who have this power in the army can kill those who have no military position or violate military orders without mercy.This kind of power of life and death is generally rarely delegated to the outside world. Once it is added, one can imagine how stable the personal prestige of the army chief will be!
"Oh? It's still like this?!" A hint of surprise flashed across Lu Bu's rigid face, and he obviously got a boost from Ma Chao: This kind of method is equivalent to seizing power from the general in disguise, but Ma Chao is winning concealment.Giving the front-line generals the authority and absolute prestige to participate in strategic preparations, while weakening their right to subdue the hearts of their subordinates, with a two-pronged approach, the Ma family's army is united as one, and has no other thoughts except to strive for military merit.

It was at this time that Lu Bu suddenly took a look around, and suddenly understood why Ma Chao only invited the important heads of the Ma family to the Shangshutai today: In this case, it would be useless to tell any general in command or a small official.Only by pulling all these leaders into this important meeting of the Central Committee, on the one hand, can fully demonstrate his intention to win trust, and on the other hand, can smoothly carry out this important matter without any complications.

Therefore, after thinking about all this, Lu Bu couldn't help but look up at Ma Chao who was still sitting upright on the chair.Lu Bu was secretly shocked by his tactics of playing and applauding the entire military system, which he had never announced before: It is really unexpected that the ability of one person to attack and plan can be so exquisite. What kind of genius is this? ?
Even at this moment, Lu Bu felt that Ma Chao's gesture of pulling that loofah stick was also unfathomable.

However, Lu Bu didn't know that under this leisurely and contented posture, Ma Chao was about to repent: If he had known that time travel was so important, he should have read some military-themed books in his previous life.It's a bit embarrassing for me, an old man, to recall these modern military methods piecemeal after being reminded by a little lady like Li Junyou!
This is indeed the case. If Ma Chao was really interested in the military in his previous life, he would have been involved in the first military reform, so why would he need to do it again?Also because Li Junyou can indeed do things that Ma's daughter-in-law can't do while staying in Yongwang's Mansion, Ma Chao really misses the atmosphere of the 21st century...

Therefore, the problem in his backyard became a deadlock.Just when everyone was in silence and didn't know how to speak, a guard outside the door entered respectfully: "My lord, Hu Yannu and Jin Bushi, generals of the Xiongnu, are begging to see you."

Hearing this, Ma Chao's spirit was shaken, and the sense of immortality and deep melancholy disappeared without a trace.I saw him unscrupulously showing a sly smile, looking around and saying: "It's been a year and a half, these wolf cubs can finally stand it no longer! Come, please come in!"

Lu Bu also looked around, and suddenly found that these people were all emitting green lights like foxes.Lu Bu felt very bad about this feeling.However, he thought about it for a while, and although he didn't understand what Ma Chao meant, he also pretended to be holding a wisdom pearl and complacent...
