Chapter 288 A well-organized army cannot be defeated (Part 2)

What is the difference between the centurion who pulls people in a friendly manner and the other centurions who pull people with a straight face? What is the difference between the two, and what actual effects will they produce?

You might as well make some extreme assumptions.

The extreme situation is - the Yellow Turban soldiers just joined the rebel army today, and then encountered a war the next day, and the war barracks needed to go into battle immediately.

Because he is a new member, the Yellow Turban Jiangbing has not yet integrated into the team, and the Jiangbing still lacks a sense of community.

Well, because Gouzi had a very good attitude when recruiting soldiers, the Yellow Turban soldiers were willing to serve under him. Although they had not started getting along yet, the relationship between Centurion Gouzi and the Yellow Turban soldiers was relatively harmonious.

The general has five virtues: wisdom, faith, benevolence, courage, and words. Whatever the dog does, the general will do it benevolently.

Because Gouzi can conquer the crowd, even if there is no running-in, even if he recruits surrender troops today, even if there is a big battle tomorrow, on the battlefield, if Gouzi is in danger, the Yellow Turban soldiers will take the initiative to assassinate the enemy soldiers because they think Gouzi is a good person.

If the gun is pushed away, or the dog is knocked down by someone, the Yellow Turban soldiers will help him, because if he takes the initiative to help the dog, he can survive.

As for the other centurions, they expanded their troops overnight, and half of them were Yellow Turban surrender soldiers. The other centurions had a straight face when recruiting troops. The Yellow Turban surrender soldiers recruited by them had no friendship with them, so how could they lend a hand to help them?

Because there was no support, the other centurions died.

The difference between people is reflected in such subtle places.

If we really expand our army today and encounter a strong enemy tomorrow, there is no doubt that Gouzi's infantry are the most capable of fighting.

A scholar can die for his confidant, that's all.

"This can be a permanent example." Li Mengxi muttered with bright eyes.

On the side, Guan Yu smiled and asked, "What can be a permanent example?"

Therefore, Li Mengxi discussed with Guan Yu that there might be room for maneuver in the period from recruiting troops to entering the camp.

First, there is recruitment.

Is it the general who recruits troops himself, the centurions below, or the commanders below? Who is better at recruiting troops?

It is inappropriate for a general to end his career. The general of an army has too many things to do. Selecting soldiers one by one takes too long.

Therefore, it should be the centurions below. It is best for each of the senior and corps commanders to choose themselves.

Whoever chooses the person will receive his own gift. Doesn’t this add a little more friendship?

The recruiters have been determined, and the two low-level officers, Shichang Wushang, are the most suitable candidates.

Then, what should be the method of selecting soldiers? Should the commanders select them with a straight face, or should they be like dogs, using their enthusiasm to make the soldiers feel as warm as going home?

Of course, Gouzi's method of recruiting soldiers is better.

Maybe there is a better way.

The village warriors stood crowded together, like radishes for sale, waiting blankly for someone to pick them, as pitiful as placing a bid to sell them.

And Li Mengxi suddenly thought, could it be changed and let the surrendered soldiers choose which battalion to go to?

First, the surrendering troops must have familiar people, and you can decide which camp to go to with your acquaintances.

When a child goes to kindergarten, he still wants to be with his playmates. Joining the army and being with him life and death. Wouldn't it be a lot more peaceful to have someone from the same hometown in the same army?

And if we let Xiang Yong pick someone, who would kindly ask the Yellow Turban Jiang Bing if he has any relatives, and then tear apart two Jiang Bings who are from the same hometown or even related to each other, and Jiang Bing dare not say anything, so

, he was reluctantly recruited away by the recruiting general.

Secondly, letting the surrendered troops decide where to go is equivalent to turning the market for recruiting troops into a market for surrendering troops.

The soldiers have the right to independently decide where to go, and have a protagonist-like sense of participation, so they can better integrate into the army.

Li Mengxi thought for a moment - the commanders and corps commanders of the village warriors were standing there, eagerly waiting for the surrendering troops to come over. Then, as soon as the anxious surrendering troops came over, the commanders waved enthusiastically, shouting for help.

Let people go where they are.

The anxious troops surrendered, and for a moment, I felt like I was back home...

How great is this.

"General Guan, what do you think?"

Guan Yu laughed loudly, shaking his head as he laughed. "Xi'er, eldest brother said that you can make seven plans in one step. Today I know that this statement is true.

Just for recruiting troops, you can think of so many ways and be so thoughtful, no one else but Guan Yu can match it!" Guan Yu was completely convinced by Li Mengxi.

Guan Yu rarely praised others, so Li Mengxi felt a little embarrassed when Guan Yu praised him.

"Is this a permanent example? In the future, when we recruit surrender troops, will we do this?" Li Mengxi raised his head and asked.

"Just do it!" Guan Yu nodded.

That's it this time. The centurions have already picked out the surrendered soldiers. Next time, the surrendered soldiers can go wherever they want.

Okay, the process of selecting troops is perfected, and then they are sent down to the camp. Just like tonight, there is still something to be done on the first night when the troops are sent down to the camp.

Li Mengxi thought of his past life, when new recruits went to the company, there would be a welcome ceremony in the company, and after they were assigned to the class, the class would also have a tea party, chat and so on, introduce each other, and then chat about other things casually.

They quickly became closer to each other.

Although the surrendered soldiers are not new recruits, they actually need something similar to a welcome ceremony more than the new recruits. Otherwise, in the army of later generations, the recruits will know that in addition to being a little tired, the military discipline in the army is strict and no one will blatantly bully the newcomers.

The Yellow Turban Soldiers were different. In the feudal era of the late Han Dynasty, military discipline was very strict. It was not uncommon for new recruits to be bullied in the army. Therefore, the Yellow Turban Soldiers would be very tormented on their first night in the camp, for fear of being bullied.

Thinking of this, Li Mengxi felt more and more that he had to find something for the senior leaders to do tonight. Li Mengxi didn't know how to hold a tea party, and he didn't have melon seeds, candies or anything to eat, so it was okay to just chat.

Li Mengxi told Guan Yu his idea again.

"This can be a permanent example." Guan Yu nodded again.

In such a short time, two military laws were formulated.

Li Mengxi could think of the importance of cultivating a tacit understanding among the team, but most of the corps commanders could not think of it so deeply.

Using rules and regulations to stipulate these things is tantamount to forcing junior officers to have a very smart way of doing things.

When the fruits of wisdom are turned into written regulations, and the written regulations are then implemented by junior officers, it is equivalent to the wisdom being inherited.

Even if it is a method that Zhuge Kongming, as clever as Zhuge Kongming, thought about for three days and three nights, as long as it is turned into a rule, a mediocre person can follow the method to achieve the same effect as Zhuge Kongming himself.

Therefore, regulations, rules and regulations are very important.

Therefore:

A well-controlled army with incompetent generals cannot be defeated; an uncontrolled army with capable generals cannot win.
