Chapter 415 Reforming the Military System

Chapter 415 Reforming the Military System
The next day, many civil and military ministers gathered in Xianyang Palace.

To prepare for a war, naturally a lot of preparations are required. Not only do generals need to fight the enemy bravely in the front, but also civil servants need to stabilize the hearts of the people in the rear, continuously deliver food and grass to the front, and ensure logistical supplies.

And this time, the people who participated were all the top ministers in the court.

And in front of the ministers, there is also a huge map that has been hung.It was already mentioned yesterday that Zhou Wen's army should be dealt with first. This point is beyond doubt.

With the nods of Fusu, Li Si, and Meng Tian, ​​who else can question it?
Meng Tian took the lead, came to the map, and said: "Zhou Wen set off from Chen County all the way, and continued to expand his troops along the way, and now the number has reached 20."

Even Meng Tian was shocked when he said this number, how long has it been?The soldiers and horses have expanded to such an extent.

However, Meng Tian also knew that many of these 20 people were coerced civilians, and they could not be compared with the real Qin army. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a mob.

It's just that Meng Tian also understands the truth that arrogant soldiers are bound to be defeated. During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, wars were fought for more than 500 years, and such cases happened more than once.

They clearly had the chance to win, and they had already seen the dawn of victory, but they fell short in the end.

But now, it is only more than ten years since Qin unified the world, Meng Tian will not follow such an old path.

Many ministers didn't know how many traitors came to attack this time until now. Before, all they knew were some unknown figures!

However, most people don't think so.They are full of confidence in the combat power of the Qin army. Since Shang Yang's reform, although Qin has suffered a disastrous defeat, even if it is a disastrous defeat, the damage it inflicts on the opponent is still painful to the opponent.

The conversion ratio can sometimes reach one for two or even one for three.

But at present, among other things, the 20 army transferred from the north to Lantian alone is enough to make people believe that Zhou Wen's so-called [-] army is not an opponent at all.

We must know that these [-] troops are all well-trained and battle-tested old soldiers. What fear is there for such a large army sitting in Guanzhong?

Meng Tian continued: "According to the intelligence reports, Zhou Wen's army intends to go through the Hangu Pass this time and attack our Great Qin."

"..."

Meng Tian kept talking, and he had already described the situation in great detail, including all aspects. Even if Zhou Wen was standing here by himself at this moment, he might not be able to speak more comprehensively than Meng Tian.

As soon as Meng Tian finished speaking, suddenly, the eyes of many generals shone brightly, and they were eager to try.

Since the reform of Shang Yang, the Great Qin has always advocated military merit from top to bottom. Even the royal family, if they can't make military merit, they can't even think about being conferred a title or marquis.

Therefore, for more than a hundred years, the tradition of Wenzhan Zexi has been cultivated in the Qin court, but this time, it is even more different.

In the eyes of these generals, this time, the military merits were almost directly placed in front of everyone, and they were allowed to fight for them. To them, Zhou Wen's 20 troops were all military merits that could move.

As long as you win them, it means that titles, money, and girls will come in a steady stream, and overnight, you can achieve a class transition and embark on the road to the pinnacle of life.

Seeing the appearance of the crowd, Fusu, as the emperor, naturally understood what these people were thinking, and stood up immediately.

Fusu glanced at everyone, and said: "This battle is different from the past. First, our Qin army should encircle and wipe out the opponent as the primary goal this time."

As soon as the words came out, everyone was excited.For them, this situation couldn't be better, which means that none of the military merits can escape.

"Secondly, the second goal of this battle is to capture the enemy's soldiers. The military merit of capturing the enemy's number will slightly exceed the military merit of beheading. The details will be announced later."

For Fusu, this may be an opportunity to reform the military system. After Shang Yang's reform, the Qin people beheaded and seized titles on the battlefield.

Therefore, the enemy is often killed. Even if the enemy intends to surrender, the soldiers will still attack, because only beheading can obtain the title.

In this way, who is willing to fly away from the military achievements in front of him?And in this way, although the prestige of the Qin army's invincibility has long been gained, it has also achieved the Qin army's notoriety. All countries say that the Qin army is the teacher of tigers and wolves, Qin is the country of tigers and wolves, and Qin Jun is the king of tigers and wolves.

Under such circumstances, the people of all countries fear the Qin army like a tiger, and which country's people are willing to be friendly to the Qin army?
Indeed, Fusu had to admit that it was reasonable for Shang Yang to set up this system back then. In a world of great strife, the goal of conquering each other was naturally to destroy the enemy's vital strength.In this regard, Fan Sui once proposed "do not attack the land alone, but attack the people", there is a similarity between the two.

Therefore, it is natural to associate the title with beheading, but now a hundred years have passed, and the six kingdoms have been wiped out by Qin once, time has passed, and these are also times to change!

The most important thing is to change the military system of rewards. Of course, considering that captives are more difficult than beheading, Fusu set a higher reward for captives.

At the same time, the decapitated Jue Fusu did not abandon it, so it is obvious that after this system is implemented, the general will have to consider these while formulating military plans.

After all, if a general wants to make meritorious service, he must rely on the soldiers below to fight the enemy bravely. Naturally, he needs to consider the thoughts of these soldiers and win more benefits for them. As a commander, this is their due duty.

In the case of minimizing casualties, capturing the enemy will be a priority!

"Thirdly, everyone who participated in the battle this time, whether they are ordinary soldiers or officials of all sizes, all have military merits, and they will be rewarded according to the law."

When they heard this sentence, many civil servants present immediately showed joy on their faces. Although many of them raised food and grass and provided logistics for the army in the past, in the end, they did not get much benefit. Therefore, for Motivation was a big blow for them.

But now, it means that even if they don't go to the battlefield, they still have the opportunity to share in the military merits, which is very comfortable for them!

The eyes that looked at Fusu were full of excitement, and they agreed with Fusu's reform measure with both hands and feet.

Even some people who complained about the treatment of the previous captives immediately shut up. After all, this captive also needs to eat. Of course, isn't the final test the logistics?Undoubtedly, Fusu's second move made their work more difficult, which made them a little unhappy.
