Chapter 344

(Thanks to Mengdong who is unregulated, the legendary monthly tickets and rewards of Wujian Xiaofeng! Strongly summon the guaranteed monthly ticket!)

The establishment of instructors at all levels of the team, capital, camp, wing, and army was a question that Li Jing had been considering and hesitating for this period. // // One of the biggest special features of the late Tang army was that there were many vassal states, and the military was in power, and there were countless military leaders in all sizes. The military commander of the vassal states was the largest army, and there were also many military commanders below, and the military commander below was also the military commander. The military commander below was a group of military commanders.

Li Jing is also a leader of the army now. In Ziqing Town, in addition to the Pinglu Army, Li Jing's Zhendong Army has the largest power, with 25,000 troops. But it is precisely because he is the leader that Li Jing understands the terribleness of the army heads more than others. It is not uncommon for him to have a self-reliance, or even to kill the generals, in other towns. At the beginning of the Zhendong Army, Li Jing relied on a feud with several major generals such as Lin Wei and King Chong and his marriage to consolidate his relationship.

However, more and more people are growing, and the power is growing. Now the Zhendong Army has 25,000 troops, which is no longer enough to fully control the Zhendong Army. Li Zhen once suggested to Li Jing that more women from the Li clan should be married to the commanding generals below. On the other hand, Li Jing can take some generals' daughters or sisters as concubines, or let Li's subordinates marry the generals, so as to weave a big net.

This is a strategy, but it is not enough.

Guo Cheng'an suggested that Li Jing take over the middle-level generals in the Zhendong Army as adopted sons, and let them change their surname to Li, so that they can control the entire army with the patriarchal system. However, Li Jing is only 21 years old. None of the middle-level generals at the army are younger than Li Jing. Li Jing was not willing to accept the adopted son. If he wanted to accept a group of subordinates who were much older than him and could even be his father's subordinates as adopted sons, Li Jing could not accept this matter. He was no longer willing to be the adopted sons of Song Wei, not to mention that it was not a good idea to accept the adopted son. Just like himself, although he became Song Wei's adopted son, in fact, he did not immediately change his ideas about Song Wei. No matter how many adopted sons he accepted, the most important thing was to control power.

After thinking about it, Li Jing felt that in order to strengthen his control over the Zhendong Army, it would be very good to establish the branch of Taizu in later generations. Starting from the team level, a group of literati were appointed as the teachings. The chief officer was in charge of military affairs, taught them to manage everything outside the military, and was responsible for supervising the chief generals to prevent the chief general from being authoritarian.

Li Jing and Wu are born opposites. The new teaching system Li Jing did not use martial arts to hold this position in the future, but specially promoted a group of literati to hold this position. In essence, the chief officials at all levels then had the power to decide military affairs, but in other aspects they had to accept supervision of teaching. The Tang Dynasty also had a military supervision system. However, the military supervision was only at the highest level. Zhang Chengye is now the military supervision envoy, and Zhang Chengye also had a dozen other people, including deputy military supervision envoy, junior military supervision envoy, and judge of military supervision. But their supervision target was Li Jing, not the following levels.

Li Jing combined the military supervision system that existed in the Tang Dynasty, the system of controlling military affairs in the Song Dynasty, and the political commissar system in later generations, and created a new teaching system. However, there are still some differences from the previous ones. The responsibility of teaching is supervision, and it cannot directly overcome the rights of the chief officials. They have no right to command troops, and some have the right to supervise and report. In addition, they are also responsible for ideological matters and help Li Jing control the army below.

In addition to setting up instructors at the lowest level, there are also instructors in the team to fully control the entire army.

Moreover, in order to prevent accidents from happening to the military leaders, there is another provision issued at the same time as the teaching system. That is, officers are not allowed to be promoted to the level of their own level. The team leader is not allowed to be promoted to the team. The team leader of Team A is promoted to the team officer and must be transferred to the team B. The team is promoted to the capital, the capital is promoted to the camp, and the battalion is promoted to the wing. Even if there is no promotion, all officers need to be transferred once every three years. There is another important rule, that is, all officers are not allowed to have private soldiers, and the personal soldiers they own must be the official in the battalion. After the official position is transferred, the personal soldiers are not allowed to be taken away. Battalion-level officers can usually enjoy the qualification of ten personal guards, and the wing-level officers can have one team of personal soldiers.

Several consecutive regulations are all to avoid the appearance of military leaders after the team grows.

Especially the teaching system, Li Jing racked his brains to take it out.

Since Li Jing took over Dengzhou, his various performances have not only been welcomed by the people, but also recognized and supported by the aristocratic families. Representatives of Cui, Han and Xiao families, many aristocratic families have sent their children to join Li Jing's subordinates. Most of these few joined the army and were scholars, and even many were scholars who had passed the Jinshi. At the beginning, Li Jing arranged a lot of people to enter Dengzhou Prefecture City and the four counties, and arranged some to enter the Zhendong Army and the Liaodong two cities. However, there were still many scholars who came to join, so Li Jing simply asked them to go to the army to teach first.

Then, based on observation and their academic abilities, they were all assigned to instructors at all levels this time.

The military council of the Zhendong Army once every seven days was prepared in the military camp in Dengzhou. Among the military camps in the north of the city were Li Jing's military conference hall, a living room and a study. After the meeting, Li Jing returned to the study and just sat down, Wang Chong asked for a meeting outside.

Li Jing changed into casual clothes under Tiedanzi's service. Tiedanzi poured a glass of fruit wine for both Li Jing and Wang Chong, and then retreated. After Wang Chong waited for only two people in the house, he cleared his throat and said directly: "Ji Yu, aren't these things you have made recently? The army is used for war. You have now brought a group of weak scholars who cannot carry the shoulders and hands into the camp, and they have also served as assistant officials at all levels. Do you know that the brothers in each camp are almost frying."

"Why am I messing around?" Li Jing smiled slightly, not angry, "And you said that there is a big quarrel now. Who is the one who is arguing, why is it? Why don't they come to me and say it directly?"

"Anyway, using literature to control martial arts is just a fool."

Li Jing's tone increased a little, and he looked at Wang Chong, "What does it mean to control martial arts with literature? Am I not saying it clearly enough? The instructors are only responsible for assisting the chief officials at all levels, and the military command is still in the hands of the chief officials. To put it bluntly, each instructor is only the price I sent. As long as the chief generals at all levels are not afraid of being in a slight way, as long as they do not do anything out of the ordinary, what are they doing in the past and what are they doing now? And with the instructors sharing some other tedious things, they should be happy." Li Jing knew that Wang Chong came, and there must be many officers watching the limelight.

Although Wang Chong was his sworn brother and married a widowed sister-in-law, he was more kinship than his relatives. But the more he did this, the more Li Jing had to speak more today and completely dispel the idea of ​​those who were waiting and watching.

"Tell you that the teaching system has not changed. Military officers at all levels have to be sent to the agreement, and they have to be sent to the contrary. And I want to say nothing, these teachings are representatives sent by me, Li Jing, and the military supervisor. Whoever dares to do anything in the future? When it is critical, the military supervisor has the right to deal with it on the spot."

"War is always the affairs of the generals, and everyone is in charge. But now, they have sent a group of scholars to ride on their heads, and everyone is a little confused." Wang Chong came in to say this today, not that he did not understand the truth, but that he knew that many generals wanted to say these words, but he did not dare to say them. He ran away now and said that there was no problem with Li Jing scolding him, and it was just right to show the attitude of the military envoy to the entire army. "The brothers below just felt that the military envoys valued the literati more and more. The territory was fought by our soldiers with blood. Now these literati have no achievements, so hundreds of people were inserted into the Zhendong Army at once, and many brothers were dissatisfied."

"What are you convinced? The soldiers regard obedience as their duty, and what are you not convinced? Do you not even tolerate a representative of me now? What do you want to do? Want to occupy the mountain and become king or to gain a self-respecting force? Am I still a military commander in the East?"

Li Jing said this and loudly, and the walls of the study could not be stopped. It was spread to the outside from afar. More than a dozen generals stood there, listening with their ears pricked. Everyone looked a little ugly when they heard Li Jing scolding Wang Chong so severely. Wang Chong was the leader of the first wing, with five thousand soldiers under his command, and now he is guarding Beisha City on behalf of Li Jing. He can be said to be a general with a border throne. Even his righteous brother, the military envoy, was scolded in this way, which shows that the general's determination to set up teaching was so great.

And the words have already reached this point. Whoever dares to object will really be suspected of whether he has the will to be independent.

Wang Chong sat there and was scolded by Li Jing. After Li Jing talked for a long time, he quickly handed the one on the table and whispered: "It's almost OK, everyone has heard it."

Li Jing smiled. After so long together, the tacit understanding between the two was still good. This was a double act, in order to show Li Jing's attitude. It was not suitable to find other generals to stand out. It just so happened that Wang Chong had enough status and the relationship between the two was more suitable.

After talking for a long time, Li Jing felt a little dry mouth, so he picked up the fruit wine to moisten his throat.

"Is it really useful to use a group of literati as teaching?" Wang Chong asked in confusion. Recently, he has been guarding Beisha City and has only returned to Dengzhou once or twice in a month. Although he also doubted that this literati was used as teaching, no matter what, he still had unconditional support for Li Jing.
