Chapter 268 Transforming the Shenwu Army
In this period, the internal and external conditions are relatively harsh.

Faced with such a situation, after Su Yonglin's analysis, he did not plan to do anything in Hebei.

The current Hebei is not suitable for reconstruction, and it may fall at any time. In the future decisive battle with Wanyanliang, he intends to use the entire Hebei as a strategic depth. If necessary, he can retreat and lengthen Wanyanliang's supply line. , increasing the probability of victory.

Another point is that there are not enough talents and the quality is not high.

At present, the political cadres trained by this expedited mode have not yet been able to conduct operations behind enemy lines and develop base areas behind enemy lines.

They are still too young to be guided by a few old birds.

The number of old birds is too small to support the needs of a combat strategy behind enemy lines. They need more experience and longer growth.

If they can overthrow the Golden Kingdom, then they will definitely be able to play a major role in the realization of the grand unification strategy in the future.

By that time, with enough people, enough experience, and a lot of updated methods, they can sneak into enemy countries in large numbers and establish bases behind enemy lines.

Let them mobilize the oppressed people at the bottom, let them wake up, let them resist, let them continue to struggle upward, then the Southern Song Dynasty, Western Xia, Dali, and even Korea will be exhausted.

At that point, there is no need for Su Yonglin to dispatch the regular army, and the direct remote control of the internal organization of the other party is enough to make all countries exhausted, and they can continue to lose blood and become weaker day by day.

When political workers and cadres set off violent uprisings within the enemy, how could any feudal regime be able to withstand such an organized and large-scale resistance?

Well, the Southern Song Dynasty may be able to do so. Its internal super-stable structure makes him have a very strong internal pressure, and the reaction force is extremely powerful. It needs a combined force from inside and outside to completely destroy it.

Several other countries did not have the stable internal structure of the Southern Song Dynasty, and their own governance level was quite poor.

Of course, this is an outlook for the future. For now, Su Yonglin's work focuses on the [-] soldiers of the original Shenwu Army.

As long as military regulations and laws can be clarified, and officers are prohibited from lynching soldiers, it will be a huge victory and the first step in the successful transformation of the Shenwu Army.

After the soldiers of the Shenwu Army were freed from their personal attachment to the original officers, further changes could be carried out smoothly.

After the instructors of the original Shengjie Army entered the army of the original Shenwu Army, in a very short period of time, the military appearance of the five army of the original Shenwu Army has been greatly improved.

After the command system was innovated and the rules were clarified, many things that were originally unclear were sorted out, and the seemingly messy chaos became orderly in an instant.

Sun Ziyi saw this very clearly.

He found that after his army fully introduced the military regulations and military management methods of the Shengjie Army, especially after the introduction of the army clerks called instructors, it seemed that great changes had taken place in a very short period of time.

The whole army feels different from what it used to be.

Su Yonglin discovered very early that the reason for the poor combat effectiveness and low organization of many feudal armies was the low military culture and the vagueness of army rules, which was very important.

In many cases, military regulations are formulated by the people above for their own review. If they are really implemented, no one cares. They are still based on the unspoken rules within the army, and they don’t care about military regulations.

Military regulations and military laws are good, but the low cultural quality of military personnel and the lack of upper-level supervision make it impossible to implement military regulations and military laws. Therefore, in the middle and lower ranks of the army, lynching and private law are popular, and the senior officers above can do nothing.

If you don't follow the following set of gameplay, you will not be able to control the army at all, or the cost of control is too high, and you need too many people who can read and hyphenate words, and you cannot sink to the grassroots level of the army.

In ancient times, people who knew the principles of hyphenation and hyphenation could be regarded as a strategic force of the country.

At that time, the personal authority of middle and lower-ranking officers was very large, and they also had more power to act cheaply.

In this way, in the middle and late period of the dynasty, with the decline of the central court's control over the army, a battalion-level army can be said to be a small private kingdom.

The fate of the soldiers at the bottom depends entirely on the moral qualities of the officers.

An officer can be a human being, and a soldier can be treated just fine, and the combat effectiveness of the army will be stronger.

If the officer is not good, then the soldiers will not be treated like pigs and dogs, and the combat effectiveness of the army can be imagined.

Su Yonglin had learned about the dark side of the feudal army from some books in the past, including the Tang army of the Huanghuang Tang Dynasty, and it would not be any different.

The book records that during the Tang Dynasty, soldiers accumulated wealth through war, but before they could send it home, they were designed to be killed in the war by the black-hearted officer, and then the wealth was seized by the officer.

From what I know, there are too many dirty facts in the feudal army, and the power of the middle and lower officers to act cheaply is too great, which seriously damages the interests of the soldiers at the bottom.

This makes it difficult for the army to maintain its combat effectiveness for a long time, the centripetal force cannot be formed, and the organization cannot be improved.

Therefore, the first thing Su Yonglin did after founding the army was to improve the military's cultural level and to implement military regulations and military laws.

Then, the personal behavior of the officers is tightly bound by strict military regulations and military laws, and they are not given the opportunity to do things.

In this way, the interests of the soldiers at the bottom can be protected to a considerable extent, and the recognition of the soldiers to the army and the army's supreme commander can be increased.

Although the core of the instructor system cannot be used in other armies for the time being, the first step in transforming the army with an appearance is to see the change in the army almost immediately.

Of course, reforms are often accompanied by the liquidation of old vested interests, which are bound to be met with resistance.

The Restoration Army was formed not long ago, and there are no interest groups, but there are not a few officers who rely on their independent power to seek benefits.

Once the system of prohibiting lynching and all acts of the military law was implemented, it immediately caused a huge shock in the army of the former Shenwu Army.

After hearing the tireless preaching of the instructors, the soldiers at the bottom generally understood the meaning of the new military regulations and military laws, and they were inexplicably excited.

Some officers expressed dissatisfaction, feeling that once the new military regulations were implemented, it would cause great harm to their interests, so they generally protested to higher-ranking officers.

This matter quickly spread to Sun Ziyi's ears, Sun Ziyi thought for a while, and felt that it was really hard to say anything about this matter.

He had just joined the Su Yonglin Corps to seek asylum. Isn't he asking for trouble by standing up to him at this time?

Sun Ziyi felt that this matter could not be done, so he decided to wait and see.

Sun Ziyi did not interfere, and the officers who tried to cause trouble could not get support from the top, and they did not dare to make a big problem, so they could only do small things in secret.

They also often have some followers, dog legs, or kinship relationships, or relationships that they post with active minds. In short, they also have an inner circle.

Now that the core interests are damaged, the inner circle must of course stand up and do something.

For example, when the instructor was explaining the military regulations to the soldiers, he shouted loudly and deliberately found fault.

Or deliberately engage in trouble during military training, affecting training.

Or loud noises in literacy classes, affecting other soldiers' learning and so on.

Anyway, these guys have used all the little tricks that can be used.

But this does not change the implementation of the new military law.

Their powers are severely limited.

The superior military management level of the original Shengjie Army completely cut off the old channels for them to obtain benefits, and provided the bottom-level soldiers with protection at the system level, so that the bottom-level soldiers no longer blindly fear officers.

Some people are timid and dare not make trouble. After receiving support from high-level people, they choose to die and endure silently.

Some can't bear the benefits that should be available to them.

They started to get anxious.

After a period of time, the conflicts between officers and instructors in some armies became so great that it was almost impossible to mediate the conflicts, and even groups of officers beat up the instructors.

This almost caused a civil war between the soldiers who supported the instructors and the soldiers who supported the officers.

The soldiers who supported the instructor and the soldiers who supported the officer were at each other's throats, and the atmosphere was quite tense.

Such a situation occurred in all five armies under the original Shenwu Army, more or less, all of them existed, and conflicts within the army broke out concentratedly at this stage.
