When Hunjun begins to make elixirs

Chapter 181 Military System Reform

The news of Emperor Shengtong's personal expedition spread throughout the world. Li Shun did not want to hide it, but he could not hide it. He just wanted to tell the people and his enemies openly and openly, giving the people a shot in the arm and throwing a bait to the enemies.No one can resist the temptation to capture the emperor with his own hands, right?

Near Tianzhu Mountain, Luo Dahu has completed the recovery of the southern provinces of the northwest region and is confronting Momu in the northern province on the border, holding back the expansion of Tianlang Mountain.Dayin's alchemy cannon and alchemy gun left a deep impression on Momu.He had heard about such weapons for a long time, but he looked down on them and always believed that Dalong could crush Dayin in all aspects.At the same time, Hua Wu led the Gu Legion and also made many military exploits in the battle, which further confirmed his understanding of Situ Qiufeng's rebellion.

Li Shun sent nine great warlocks to Luo Dahu. Now, the number of great warlocks in the Shenji Manufacturing Office has soared to 37. Some of them were recruited, and some were blessed by luck and made rapid breakthroughs.This time, all were sent to various armies for support.As for those level one to three warlocks, they were gathered in the arsenal to make alchemy guns.Fortunately, after Li Shun pacified the nobles, he quickly began to collect national war preparation resources, opened ten alchemy workshops near the capital, carried out large-scale production, and pioneered the formulation of production standards.The alchemist loves nothing more than innovation, but here it's time to keep it under control.

In Fengqi Town, Li Shun joined the 20-strong army. The leading generals were Feng Man, the former commander-in-chief of the Xiaoqi Battalion, and Chen Luo, the former commander-in-chief of the Shenwu Battalion. Both of them were transferred to the local area to serve as the commander-in-chief of the armament area.This time, the troops commanded by Li Shun were all pulled out from their first and second military preparation areas.

When Li Shun saw the two of them, he greeted them cordially: "My dear friends, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

Feng Man and Chen Luo are now generals guarding one side, and the hard work of preparing for the military preparation area has added a bit of vicissitudes to their faces that were already ravaged by wind and frost.

They were flattered by Li Shun's enthusiasm and hurriedly saluted.

Li Shundao: "In this personal expedition, I will not interfere with your march and formation, but will only deal with those warlocks. You have worked together for many years, and I believe in your tacit understanding. Each of you will lead your own troops and cooperate with each other. You must let me see you." His talents. If he can defeat them, he will be promoted to the first level and given a title."

In the past, those with a rank of six or more in Dayin could be called generals.

A first-grade general can obtain the titles of General Xuanwei and General Jianwei.The second-grade deputy general can obtain the title of General Longhu and General Dingguo.Most of the third-grade generals are Generals Zhaoyong, Zhaoyi, Huaiyuan and Dingyuan.The fourth-rank deputy generals are Guangwei, Xinwu, Xuanwu, and Xianwu generals.The fifth rank of garrison includes Wu Lue, Wu Yi, Wu Jie, and Wu De General.There are only six-rank Qianzong generals named Zhaoxin and Zhaowu.

The title was an honor pursued by the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.Those who are not members of the royal family are not allowed to be crowned kings, and those who have no merit are not given titles.The two of them were not compared to others, but to Yan Dahu.Now Yan Dahu has the rank of General Xuanwei and does not have a title.And they are also General Jianwei.

Originally there was no difference, but the emperor added General Yangwei to the rank of the first-rank general, General Hubao to the second-rank, subtracted General Huaiyuan from the second-rank, subtracted General Guangwei from the fourth-rank, and subtracted General Wu from the fifth-rank. General Lue, general Zhaolue is added to the sixth rank, and general Zhaolue is added to the sixth rank. The rank [-] is not called general directly, but is called Xiaowei instead.Military attachés at all levels are divided into three levels, with different levels.

Xuanwei, Jianwei and Yangwei are the ranks of generals.

Longhu, Dingguo, Huwei are the rank of lieutenant general.

Zhaoyong, Zhaoyi and Dingyuan have the rank of major general.

Xinwu, Xuanwu and Xianwu are the rank of brigadier general.

Wuyi, Wujie, and Wude are school-level military ranks.

Zhaolue, Zhaoxin and Zhaowu are the rank of lieutenant.

Military ranks are lifelong and represent a soldier's honor.More importantly, military ranks are accompanied by salary subsidies.The emperor stipulated that there are three points in the salary composition of soldiers. The first is position, the second is military rank, and the third is military age.In addition to establishing a military area, the emperor also explicitly abolished the military household system that existed in name only since the Taizu Dynasty, and stipulated that all adult men in Dayin have the obligation to serve as soldiers.In fact, this policy was implemented during the Sejong Dynasty.In order to put down the Three Kings Rebellion, Emperor Shizong stipulated that a thousand people should be recruited from large counties and 500 people from middle counties.If wealthy households were unwilling to apply for the draft, they could pay off the money and let the government recruit them on their behalf.However, Sejong did not formally abolish the military system, and conscription did not form a system.

Now that the emperor has promised him a title, as long as he performs well, it will be a sure thing.

The two people said excitedly: "I will die with my life!"

Li Shun successfully aroused their desire to make meritorious deeds, and then hid in the big tent and became a hands-off shopkeeper.The emperor has to do everything, so why do he need all the civil and military officials?When treating subordinates, make them want to make meritorious deeds, dare to make meritorious deeds, and be able to make meritorious deeds.Anyway, no matter how great their achievements are, they are all due to the Emperor's wisdom.

He deeply reflected on his original preference for Yan Dahu, which led to many complaints among the military generals.There's nothing you can do about it. Your power and position are unstable, so it's necessary to reuse those close to you.It's not too late to make corrections now.

Li Shun believed that with his charisma, as long as they got along with each other for a while, they would know that he was a good emperor who was generous with rewards, approachable, kind and generous.He was by no means a greedy, lustful, self-willed, cruel and murderous king like the outside world said.Although he was hugging the beauty in the big tent, eating barbecue and drinking juice.But his heart is with the soldiers.

On the third day of the march, Feng Man and Chen Luo came to ask him about food and grass. Did they see any food transport team following up?Li Shun immediately showed them the function of the storage ring and asked them to retreat with admiring eyes.Later, the army's march speed increased significantly.

Li Shun delivered food and grass to the Huotou Army every day and personally supervised their cooking, which earned him a good reputation as a caring soldier.His famous saying: "People are like iron, food is like steel. How can we fight if we don't have enough food?" It became a wise saying among soldiers.

The fellow magicians saw the emperor using storage magic weapons to transport grain and grass, and they all admired his imagination.Their storage bags are too small for such a thing.

When there were still ten days left to travel to the northwest, Feng Man, the commander-in-chief of the First Military Preparation District, reported to Li Shun: "Your Majesty, according to the report from Tanma, there is a group of Shenmu cult bandits following us. It has been two days."

"What are you going to do with it?"

"I originally didn't want to talk to them and left them to the local military area to deal with them, but they followed closely and sought their own death. I thought I should turn around and eat them, so that those young people who covet our army will know how powerful they are!"

"End the battle as soon as possible! Don't delay the march."

Feng Man took the order and left, mobilized three thousand cavalry to lure the enemy, ordered the spearmen to ambush and set up positions, and mounted the twenty newly developed rotating machine guns developed by the Shenji Manufacturing Office.

Feng Man said to his deputy general: "I have long wanted to test the power of this thing. I heard that the emperor said it is the nemesis of the cavalry, so I want to see it."

As a former commander of the Cavalry Battalion, he has his own pride and has enough confidence in the cavalry.However, there is no need for the emperor to exaggerate.For safety reasons, he still ambush his [-] cavalry nearby.
