Chapter 350 Depressed (3,000 words)
Chapter 350 Depression... (Three Thousand Words)
"Damn it, this is bullying us without anyone. What a bastard." Li Mingxin, the chief of staff of Quanzhou Fleet, was furious after receiving the order from the messenger: "No, I have to go to Liu Rengui. Why is the war going to start soon, but he asked us to leave - this is obviously because we are afraid that we will share their contributions. It's too unfair. I have to ask him for an explanation. After all, we are his subordinates. Even if there is a conflict between the two sides, they will not be so partial, right?"
The Navy implemented a military system that was completely different from the army. After all, the platforms and war modes carried by both sides were different. For the sake of convenience, in addition to the highest chief officer and the governor, the following positions were all referred to by Li Zhen as the military positions in later generations. The Chief of Staff was one of them. In addition to this, there were staff officers, captains, gunners, navigators, political commissars, etc.
Li Zhen even planned to popularize the general rank system after he ascended the throne. After all, the current rank system of the Tang Dynasty is still very chaotic. The Sixteen Guards (that is, the Southern Imperial Guards) have their own system of officers, and the government soldiers also have their own system. Then the system of the Royal Guards (that is, the Northern Imperial Guards, the Right Yulin Army, the Right Dragon Wu Army, and the Right Shenwu Army) is different from that of the Southern Imperial Guards... If Li Zhen had not lived here for more than ten years and was the heir to the Tang Empire, I am afraid that he would not be able to figure out the relationship between the various armies until now. Who is higher and who is lower in the rank...
In the fleet, the Chief of Staff is equal to the third person in the fleet, and Li Mingxin is the second person in the Quanzhou fleet (Li Ji is not there, there is only Cheng Chuliang above him). Such a person is certainly not a simple character. He is actually Li Shimin's person, and his ability is very good. Speaking of which, since Li Zhen created a young army and Wentian Shuyuan, Li Shimin also envied a Tang Dynasty Civil and Martial Arts Academy. Of course, the scale is not as large as Li Zhen, and only a few hundred people. However, after two years of hard training, some talents have been discovered, and Li Mingxin is one of them.
Speaking of which, Li Mingxin is also considered a royal family, but he is already a very remote side branch. However, although he is only eighteen years younger than him, his seniority is not low. By seniority, he is actually of the same generation as Li Shimin, which means that when Li Zhen sees him, he has to call him uncle...
Although he was born in a royal family, Li Mingxin still has the ability. He is good at martial arts. It is said that thirty or fifty people are not close to him. He even despises all the heroes in strategy (in the Tang Dynasty's Cultural and Martial Arts Academy). But even if he is capable, he cannot bear the stimulation after all. When he saw Liu Rengui's orders of insulting and exclusion, he was extremely angry: "Damn it, don't think I don't know what he is thinking. Isn't it just that we offended him? This is a revenge? His Royal Highness still regards him as a confidant. He is so petty, even if he is capable, how can he be regarded as a confidant? I must ask Liu Rengui for an explanation. This does not treat us as human beings at all."
"Stop it first. What's the use of you going now? This order was given by him through regular channels. We are his subordinates and we must abide by the order. This is our duty as a soldier. What's more, not only now, but we must do things under him for a considerable period of time in the future. If even his first order is violated, it will be really offended to death. He will do whatever he wants to rectify us?" Cheng Chuliang said muffled. He was helpless about this order. Of course, he was unwilling to accept this order, but he has been in the army since he was a child and knew very well that the military order should not be violated, and he dared not disobey the military order. So now Liu Rengui issued an order to him through regular procedures. No matter how he was unwilling, he must abide by the order.
"Everyone doesn't have to be angry, this may not be a bad thing for us." Just as everyone was depressed, a slightly smiling voice said.
"What do you mean?" Cheng Chuliang looked at the person who was talking. What caught his eyes was a young but very calm face. He saw a smile on the corner of his mouth but not showing his teeth. Although his face was still very tender, his eyes were as calm as water, as if nothing could move him at all.
The person who spoke was the political commissar of the fleet, whose name was Li Daoyun, who was only twenty years old. He was not from the Tang Dynasty's Civil and Military Academy, nor from Li Zhen's young army or Wen Tian Shuyuan. He was not even a scholar at all. He was actually a Taoist priest...
Because the sailing at sea is boring, the crew members will inevitably feel depressed after staying for a long time, and various things will naturally happen. Many people will even be bent by the boring environment - this is really not a joke. There are few entertainment activities on the boat, and there are no women. Some people cannot vent, so they naturally target their brothers who are with them day and night (thinking of a joke: I treat you as a brother, but you want to fuck me ∑(°△°---)︴)…
After Liu Rengui returned from Luzon for the first time, dozens of such pairs were born in the fleet. After all, Liu Rengui was an ancient man. Although he had heard of such things in daily life, he still didn't like men and men. He believed that this move was not only contrary to human ethics, but also inconvenient to the world. So he vowed to use his own methods to prevent such situations.
However, how can this kind of thing be stopped by manpower? No matter how many means he used, men were not eliminated, but more and more...
In desperation, Liu Rengui had to report the situation to Li Zhen, hoping to get Li Zhen's help.
Li Zhen was from later generations, so he did not have much rejection of this. However, Liu Rengui was eager to ask for it. Moreover, this kind of thing is really not good, especially if the news is passed on, the Navy would probably be regarded as a male concentration camp, which would be a great harm to the reputation of the navy, a new army. After all, most of the ancients were still very conservative. Even if someone wanted to join the Navy, their families would probably not see their families going to sea and become gay.
If you want to eliminate this phenomenon, reducing the psychological burden on the crew members is the best way. In order to reduce the psychological burden on the crew members, Li Zhen thought of a very famous profession in the Rabbit Family Army in later generations, namely the political commissar.
Of course, this political commissar is not the other political commissar. The political commissar of the Rabbit family has many roles, and even the political commissar has the right to shoot and kill people who violate the law on the spot. However, it is different when it comes to Li Zhen. He just gave the political commissar one role, which is to fool... To be precise, use his full psychological counseling ability to relieve the psychological pressure of the soldiers and restore them to normal conditions - aren't you psychologically stressed? Well, come to me, let's chat well, as long as you chat, your psychological pressure will naturally disappear. So rather than saying that this is a political commissar, it is better to say that it is a psychological counselor specially set up for the crew.
Li Zhen thought it was pretty good, but when he implemented it, he immediately encountered difficulties. There was no major of psychological counseling in this era, so naturally there would be no profession of psychological counseling. Although some people are naturally suitable for this profession, they have not received professional training, and there are very few people who are truly qualified.
As a result, it took a long time to recruit less than ten people, which made Li Zhen very anxious. In this case, Li Chunfeng found Li Zhen and put forward a feasible suggestion - aren't you looking for someone who is proficient in psychological counseling? You can find us. Although we are not proficient in psychological counseling, we will fool us... No, we can convey Taoist ideas to them. Although this is not enlightenment, the effect of brainwashing should be similar to enlightenment.
Li Zhen was overjoyed. He forgot about religion. If you can fool people, can there be anything in this world that is more powerful than religion? Especially Taoism, this can be called a panacea religion, and various professions were derived in later generations: for example, chemists were transformed by alchemists, astronomers were created by Taoists who like to observe the heavenly phenomena, mathematicians evolved by Taoists who were proficient in calculations, let alone doctors, there were many famous doctors from ancient Taoism, in addition, fortune tellers, rain seekers, talismans, ghost-removing ghosts, etc. No matter which profession is, whether these professions are prohibited or not, they have one of the most basic abilities, that is, missionary, that is, fraud, brainwashing ability max.
Anyone who likes to fool people is naturally a master who grasps and speculates people's hearts. Such people are born to be experts in psychology.
Li Zhen, who had figured out this verse, immediately waved his hand and asked the major Taoist sects to send Taoist priests who were proficient in deception... Well, Taoist priests who were proficient in psychological counseling boarded the ship to help comfort the crew members who had psychological abnormalities due to long and boring sailings. Correspondingly, they should also promote the good of the court and plant the seeds of never betraying the Tang Dynasty in the hearts of all naval soldiers. At the same time, the reward given to them is to preach among the crew members, but they must uphold the principle of voluntaryness and not be forced.
And in order not to make these Taoist priests despise, Li Zhen therefore established an official position for them, namely the political commissar, second only to the captain, chief of staff and chief of staff, and the fourth person on the ship.
This is just the identity of the political commissar on each ship. Li Daoyun has a higher identity because he is Li Chunfeng's personal disciple and the major political commissar of the Quanzhou Fleet. In other words, he is the leader of all the political commissars of the Quanzhou Fleet. This time he followed Cheng Chuliang to move, and he was worried that Cheng Chuliang and the others had no experience in navigation, and that would be bad if they had any abnormalities in their hearts - they were all senior leaders of the Quanzhou Fleet. If something happened to them, no one could stop them. If they wanted to rebel, Li Daoyun held a command from Li Zhen in his hand, which could shock Cheng Chuliang at a critical moment so that he would not be confused.
For example, now, Cheng Chuliang and Li Mingxin are both unhappy with Liu Rengui's orders, for fear that they would find Liu Rengui to settle the score when they were confused, so they hurriedly comforted him.
