Chapter 285 No reward

Li Mengxi bluntly pointed out the undesirability of letting the Yellow Turban generals become captains of thousands.

Guan Yu was silent for a moment.

Liu Bei has always been polite to virtuous corporals and was unwilling to underestimate talents. He hesitated and said, "Xi'er, the Yellow Turbans are very different from our army's strategy and tactics. Can we let him take three to five hundred of the Yellow Turbans' old troops and form an army of his own?"

"

"No!" Li Mengxi looked at Liu Bei, raised his eyebrows, and refuted Liu Bei's proposal without thinking, "In an army, if there are two factions, this is the way to die.

Besides, setting up another army to use the old Yellow Turban troops and use the old Yellow Turban tactics... Oh, this is a waste of manpower. I don't like the combat power of the Yellow Turban Army, not at all!" Li Mengxi said that he doesn't like the Yellow Turban War.

Li, his words were full of disgust, his disgust was palpable, Liu Bei and Guan Yu wanted to laugh a little when they saw the look of disgust on his face.

It's too childish.

This Yellow Turbans are not the rabble we encountered before. This Yellow Turbans are all warriors, fully equipped with armor and well-drilled. They can be called a formidable enemy. The Yellow Turbans, who are considered to be elites, are so disgusted...

Li Mengxi is qualified to despise the Yellow Turbans. Although the current rebel army has not grown in combat power and its structure is not yet mature, its discipline and growth are far from comparable to the Yellow Turbans.

Nowadays, the rebel army, especially Guan Yu's subordinates, have the courage to suggest to Guan Yu whether he should improve his attack method or ask Guan Yu for the equipment he needs to carry. However, Guan Yu mostly accepted the suggestions of his soldiers and had some suggestions.

Those who make suggestions often have meritorious deeds.

This is an invincible army with strong growth potential, and its self-construction capability exceeds that of most of its peers at the same time.

Such a growing army should become a template for the entire army, including the newly surrendered Yellow Turban Army.

And if, as Liu Bei said, he ordered the surrendered general Wang Lu to lead three to five hundred people and establish a separate army, these three to five hundred Yellow Turbans who are not integrated into the rebel system will have no growth potential, mean that military discipline cannot be serious, and they will be in the rebel army.

Mixed with sand, it is a waste of manpower and a drag on the whole. It is equivalent to three to five hundred useless soldiers. It is better to let these three to five hundred people go directly to the civilian camp.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu couldn't resist Li Mengxi and looked at each other helplessly. Liu Bei finally asked, "Xi'er, in your opinion, how should we arrange the way for the surrender of the general?"

Li Mengxi thought for a while and expressed his thoughts, "He can be removed from his post and made into an ordinary soldier. We will see his ability. If he is capable, it will not be too late to promote him to an official position."

"No! (No!)" Guan Yu and Liu Bei said in unison.

"This is too deceptive and should not be done." Liu Bei did not follow Li Mengxi's suggestion.

According to Li Mengxi's idea, if a Yellow Turban general with unknown abilities is placed at the grassroots level and becomes an ordinary soldier, if he is really capable, he will be promoted very quickly, and based on his abilities, it can also be determined whether he is suitable to be a fighting general.

It is still suitable for commanding the army to fight.

This is indeed the best way to examine abilities and make the best use of them, but Li Mengxi ignored another point, which is the handling of interpersonal relationships.

In this era, it was the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms. Someone brought two thousand people to seek refuge with you. You took away their soldiers and allowed them to be treated as little soldiers. This was a great shame and humiliation.

People with a bit of blood will rebel.

However, if a general is demoted and remains in a high position, it will damage the army's combat effectiveness.

In the end, the three of them came together and decided that in the arrangement of the Yellow Turban generals, the names should be high and the actual duties should be low.

Compared with Liu Bei's Yijun, there seems to be no big difference between the Yellow Turban Army and Liu Bei's Yi Army in terms of military preparation and combat power, but in fact they are incompatible with each other.

The rebel army is a hundred-man army, and any soldier can make suggestions.

As for the Yellow Turban generals, even if they become centurions, once they become centurions, the surrendered generals cannot listen to the advice of ordinary soldiers like other rebel centurions. Therefore, this centurion has a centurion.

The Yellow Turban generals became centurions, so they became indistinguishable from the Yellow Turban Army.

The damage to the rebel army's combat power was huge.

Without the subjective initiative of ordinary soldiers, how can they have many methods of breaking the formation such as rushing with a car to break the formation, breaking the formation with a knife on the ground, etc.?

Personnel arrangements may seem simple, but are actually complex.

Li Mengxi frowned. He grabbed his hair and almost pulled it off.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu quietly waited for Li Mengxi to finish thinking.

After a long time, Li Mengxi came up with a very genius idea.

Since the Yellow Turban General will affect the combat effectiveness of the rebels wherever he places it, and it will be like adding sand wherever he puts it, then he should put it in a place where it will not have any impact.

For example - cavalry.

Li Mengxi has been involved in the reform of military discipline and tactics of the rebel army for so long, but it has only involved infantry and not cavalry.

In the past, there were no cavalry units. There were thousands of men, but there were only more than thirty cavalrymen. There were not even enough scouts and messengers, so it was impossible to form a cavalry unit for combat.

Now, the Yellow Turban King's army surrendered, and there were dozens more cavalry. There were enough cavalry scouts, there were enough messengers, and some were left. Finally, a small cavalry unit could be formed for combat.

The cavalry team was just about to be built. Starting from scratch, the king's road was just inserted into it. A newly built cavalry team was stuffed with a yellow turban general. It would not affect the "tradition" that ordinary soldiers can also make suggestions, because

The Cavalry was starting from scratch, with no "traditions" yet.

Therefore, the arrangements for surrendering general Wang Lu were discussed by Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Li Mengxi, and Wang Lu was arranged to join the cavalry team as Guan Yu's deputy and cavalry centurion.

Speaking of cavalry, Li Mengxi wanted to ask Liu Bei if he wanted to order the cavalry to be used by his subordinates.

Liu Bei laughed and said that he would send two of the messenger cavalry to Li Mengxi tomorrow.

Li Mengxi is too busy now. The carpenter camp is a top priority, and the doctor camp is also a top priority. Liu Bei has packed all the women and children in the army into the rear army and put them under Li Mengxi's control. In addition, everything in the army often needs

Li Mengxi assisted in making plans and traveled frequently. Without sending an order, Li Mengxi always jumped out of the car and ran to catch up with the carpenter camp to discuss matters.

If something happens on the march, you have to wait for the horsemen to pass by and use the horses of the horsemen to find someone, which is very inconvenient.

With the exclusive cavalry, it will be much more convenient to discuss things wherever you want.

Liu Bei was actually not satisfied with the arrangement of surrendering general Wang Lu. It was really aggrieved for him to have Commander Qu, who commanded three thousand armies, be treated as a centurion.

But there is no other way, this is the best arrangement after comprehensive consideration.

If the official position cannot be given high, then the only way to compensate it is from other aspects, such as wine and meat, good horses and precious weapons, but Wang Lu's horse is better than Guan Yu's, and the armor on his body is thicker than Guan Yu's fish scale armor.

Weapons, should Liu, Guan, and Zhang be allowed to reward Wang Lu with the male and female swords, the eight-foot-long snake spear, and the Qinglong Yanyue Sword? There is no reward, only wine and meat, but the wine and meat are also brought from other people's yellow turban baggage.
