Chapter 671 Must be literate

Seeing the expressions of Li Songchen and Li Shi, Wang Xiaolie thought for a while and said: "Let's do this. I will mobilize some capable personnel to run a literacy class for the illiterate generals of the Hedong Rebel Army. It will last for half a year, and those who can read will

If you have a rough understanding of official documents of one or two thousand words, you will be transferred to a military school. If you really can't learn to read, you have no choice but to switch to other jobs. Our army is different from the previous army. Official documents are exchanged frequently, and

There are no officials, and officers must be literate."

Li Songchen said: "It doesn't matter if the general is illiterate. There are many illiterate people in the Forbidden Army."

Wang Xiaolie shook his head: "The Forbidden Army was inherited from the Five Dynasties. Most of the armies of the Five Dynasties inherited non-Han customs. Looking at the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties, how many generals were illiterate? It is simply unimaginable that the officers were illiterate! Lu Chen of China,

During the Five Husties, many of the Hu people who entered the Central Plains were illiterate. They had no choice but to set up officials in the army and appoint cronies to make up for their shortcomings. How can we learn this habit from the Hu people? In the exchange of official documents in the army,

When discussing tactics and battles, illiteracy will not work at all. Don’t worry, learning to read is not that difficult. Children can roughly understand books after two or three years of learning. For an adult, as long as he is educated well and is willing to learn, half a year is enough.

"If you can't learn it in half a year, it means you don't want to be an officer."

Li Songchen sighed slightly and said nothing more.

Most of the rebels in Lingshi are illiterate, and there are not enough scholars to teach them how to read. In Li Songchen's view, literacy is a great thing, how can it be learned in half a year? Wang Xiaolie said this, just to comfort him.

Just yourself.

When the Song Dynasty was just founded, Taizu Zhao Kuangyin once said that he wanted to make all military officers in the world study. But by the time of Taizong, things changed and military officers were no longer encouraged to study. By the time of Song Zhenzong, they went to the other extreme and encouraged

Military generals did not study, and even intentionally promoted generals who were illiterate. In history, Yang Yanzhao, a general of the Yang family, became a general at this time, but he was illiterate. When Renzong arrived, he deliberately encouraged military generals to study and promoted those who were Jinshi.

Liu Ping was a general and was called a Confucian general. During the Battle of Sanchuankou, Liu Ping was captured by Li Yuanhao. From then on, no one cared whether the general could read or not.

There were a large number of illiterate generals in the imperial army of the Song Dynasty. For their official correspondence, they usually borrowed official documents from officials or close junior high schools. In addition, there was an important position in the Song Dynasty army, which was in charge of machine writing and writing. In charge of machine writing.

The commander-in-chief is allowed to appoint officials he is familiar with, and the writing of Jiyi characters directly allows him to appoint his children. The establishment of Jiyi characters also facilitates illiterate generals.

The number of public officials in the Song Dynasty army was not large, but their status should not be underestimated. These people were outside the military system, but they were in charge of the core affairs of the army. Even in the Sanya, there were only dozens of public officials in charge.

Wang Xiaolie's army completely abolished civil servants and required officers to be literate. It had a different command system from the Forbidden Army. This system did not allow for backtracking. Officers must be literate. If you are illiterate, you are not allowed to be an officer.

Seeing that Li Songchen and Li Shi were unhappy, Wang Xiaolie had nothing to do. There was no need to discuss this matter, so he could only provide them with help.

Jiang Min said: "If the Hedong army expands to 30,000 people, it will be completely different from before. For an army of tens of thousands, the system must be sound and the rules and regulations must be complete. The generals in the army must receive formal training. I

It is recommended that the courses of the military academy be divided into several stages. The study time for each stage is preferably one month. Generals in the army should study for one month in turn. It will take one or two years to complete the training."

Wang Xiaolie said: "The training of officers is different from the learning in military academies. Military academies teach people with no military experience, while most officers have actual combat experience, which is a different teaching method."

Jiang Min nodded: "That's what Xuan Fu said. I have been thinking about this for some days, and it shouldn't be a big problem. In addition, a group of officers from the army need to be mobilized. These officers have experience and can help speed up the process."

military."

Wang Xiaolie nodded: "Yes. I will transfer a group of outstanding officers from the existing army to serve as the foundation of this army."

After saying that, Wang Xiaolie suddenly fell silent and looked up at the moon in the sky. After a while, he said: "A person can't think everything clearly, there are always omissions. Our current army is mine.

How can I take everything into consideration when building an army of more than 100,000 people? To be honest, I still have a lot of dissatisfaction with the army, but it is not convenient to change it now. Moreover, I have won several battles in succession.

If you want to change the military system, there will naturally be resistance. Therefore, I hope to establish a different army on Hedong Road, an army that is not established according to my wishes. If I see any problems with this army, I can raise it and make changes if necessary.

I think you will never push back or hold back on me."

Jiang Min crossed her hands after hearing this: "I don't dare to do this in a humble position!"

Wang Xiaolie said: "Building an army of more than 100,000 people is not easy in itself. It only takes three or four years, and there are even more problems. When the army exceeds 10,000 people, the leaders actually have no idea about the grassroots level.

What is it like? There are more than 100,000 people. Even the middle-level military personnel, such as commanders and supervisors, are not understood by many people. From Ruzhou to Xiangyang, in one or two years, our army has expanded to nearly 100,000 people.

Thousands of people. How can I know what the problems are at the grassroots level of the army? Now, I don’t know where to start if I want to make changes. I hope that this army in Hedong will be clear at every step from the time it was established.

Chu. It’s not scary to have a problem, just solve it. What’s scary is that if there is a problem, the problem will be hidden underneath. How can we talk about solving the problem if we hide it? Jiang Dutong has been by my side in the past few years. I believe,

I don’t have those problems.”

Jiang Min nodded and said: "I grew up beside Xuan Fu. Xuan Fu knows best what kind of person I am. I hope I will make more contributions in the future and live up to my trust!"

Wang Xiaolie said: "In recent years, the territory has become larger, and it is not as tense as in previous years. For your army, I will give you the best personnel, the most sufficient supplies, and fully respect your opinions. I only hope that in a few years

After that, you give me a strong army!"

Jiang Min crossed her hands and said, "I understand this humble position! I will live up to Xuanfu's instructions!"

Wang Xiaolie nodded. After being silent for a while, he raised his glass and said, "Drink, drink! I said I was treating you to a banquet, but I didn't drink much wine."

Several people raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

After drinking a few drinks, Wang Xiaolie said to Li Songchen: "General Li started from a young age. It has not been easy for him to be surrounded by heavy troops of the Jin army in recent years. Most of your troops are poor people from surrounding counties and counties and are literate.

There are not many people. It’s nothing. This is a normal thing. But in our army, officers must be literate, which cannot be discussed. Let’s do this. You select people in the army who are suitable to be officers, and I will send people to teach them.

Literacy is limited to half a year. If there are still those who are illiterate, they will form a special team and teach them for another half year. If they can't learn it in one year, there is really no way. In addition to the army, there are many people under the Xuanfu Division

Industry can only arrange for them to do other jobs. Although they no longer go to the battlefield, they still have food and clothing."

Li Songchen did not expect that Wang Xiaolie would always keep this matter in mind. He hurriedly crossed his hands and said: "Xuanfu's arrangement is naturally very good! Thank you for your humble position!"

Wang Xiaolie said: "Over the years, you have gone through life and death, and you are people who have made great contributions to the country. How can we forget it? If you are in Lingshi County, Cao Dutong comes from the north, and it is easy to occupy Lengquan Pass and save the country.

A lot of trouble. You have your abilities, and the army has its own rules. You should come up with a perfect method that both parties can accept. I hope that after you join the army, you can kill more enemies and make meritorious deeds!"

(There is really a lot going on these days. I only had one update yesterday. I’m sorry. Now I owe three updates. I’ll try to make it up before the 10th. I’m sorry.)
