Chapter 125 New Position
The two of them walked around the market but couldn't find Guo Yongning, so they walked towards the south of the city and met Brother Guo Qing and four of them on the way.
"I finally found you, Yongning found you, I found you in the West City. Where did you go? Why didn't you meet in the south of the city?"
Guo Hao looked at Brother Guo Yi when he heard this, and both of them smiled. Brother Guo Yi told him about something bad to others, and the brothers all admire Guo Hao very much.
People in troubled times are like grass, and human feelings are gone. Most people will turn a blind eye to this kind of thing, but Guo Hao insists on it, which is enough to show his uniqueness.
It was already afternoon when everyone returned to the military camp. The five Guo brothers were worried about their sister, so Guo Hao simply asked them to go back and he stayed to continue training.
In the evening, Guo Wei came over and heard about this. Guo Yongning was suspended for one month and was not allowed to go out during this period. He was scammed at home for a female training. Although Guo Yongning was unhappy, he had no choice.
...
Days have passed day by day, and Guo Hao has been training for a month in a blink of an eye. Considering that the weather is too hot, Guo Hao arranged the training time in the morning and evening, and during the day he took the soldiers to learn to read.
Guo Hao was very excited, so Guo Wei naturally knew that Guo Hao had done some strange training, so Guo Wei was also a little curious and wanted to see his achievements.
On this day, the court was on vacation, and Guo Wei secretly came to the schoolyard. What caught his eye were four neat teams standing straight in the morning sun.
Guo Wei's eyes lit up. Sometimes, the combat effectiveness of a team can be seen from the military appearance. Guo Hao's army is so neat, which shows that he does have the ability to lead troops.
"A team obeys the orders and walks in unison!"
With a command, the four teams walked forward in batches, with uniform movements and even the steps were the same. Guo Wei was very novel.
As the platoon moved, it finally gathered into a huge platoon. Guo Hao ordered the team to change, and the platoon immediately turned into two columns.
"War against red and blue, the winner can take a nap!"
After all, it is a military camp, and there must be someone on duty if you have a rest. So Guo Hao came up with this method to let them compete to inspire the soldiers' competitive spirit.
However, Guo Wei thought he wanted to have a fight, but he didn't expect that the soldiers actually lay down and started doing push-ups one-on-one.
For a moment, he shouted Xuan Tian. Some soldiers shouted while doing it, as if they could grow strength and scare their opponents.
Guo Wei was amused and laughed at him, so he walked to Guo Hao. Guo Hao heard the footsteps and looked back and quickly saluted him.
"I've seen the Shizhong!"
"No need to be polite. Let me see the results of your training. Overall, it's pretty good. I just don't know if it's useful on the battlefield."
Guo Hao heard this and said: "Strength training and endurance training are beneficial to the growth of soldiers' strength. As the saying goes, sweat more in normal times and less in wartime.
Moreover, cohesion and team awareness are also very important. They are your personal soldiers, a group, and everyone is elite. I don’t need to teach me about force. I just strengthen their foundation.”
Guo Wei nodded in a vague way. Guo Hao's training method is indeed unique, but the real combat power depends on the performance of the battlefield.
The soldiers were still doing push-ups, but some could not hold on at first. Those who lost had to take the turn at noon, and those who won could take a nap in a cool afternoon.
At this time, someone discovered Guo Wei, so they stood up to worship. Guo Hao looked a little unhappy when he saw it, and Guo Wei was a little strange.
"Why are you a little unhappy when they visit me?"
Guo Hao bowed and said, "When I returned to the Shizhong, I didn't have my order, so they stopped the competition without authorization. If this was on the battlefield, wouldn't it give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it!"
When Guo Wei heard this, he suddenly realized that he understood what Guo Hao meant. Those trainings that seemed useless were actually training soldiers' sense of obedience.
In this era of power, it is too difficult to control the army. Even though I know that doing so is a good thing, I am worried about the suspicion of the superiors.
"Everyone has it!"
With a call from Guo Hao, everyone subconsciously stood up straight. Guo Wei was secretly shocked, not knowing how Guo Hao did it.
"Say hello to the servant!"
"Hello, Shi Zhong!"
The neat sound had an enlarged effect, and everyone shouted hard, deafening but very imposing.
Guo Wei took a deep breath and waved his hand and said, "Hello, soldiers!"
"Defend your country and fight for the enemy!"
Another slogan really surprised Guo Wei, and at the same time, he was a little surprised.
"Okay, if my army in the dynasty is like this, why don't you be afraid of the world!"
Guo Hao laughed and said, "What the Shizhong said is very true. In fact, the Han army is no worse than those barbarians. We just lack a little!"
“What is it?”
“Cohesion!”
After Guo Hao finished speaking, Guo Wei understood that since ancient times, ethnic minorities have frequently harassed Han people. Except for the Han and Tang dynasties that can be effectively controlled, there is no way for them to do anything else.
The period of effective control was the time when the Han people were most united, which had a lot to do with the emperor and the court.
Nowadays, the emperor is stupid, the court is corrupt, and all the vassal states in the world have different intentions. It is too difficult to deal with the Khitan with internal and external troubles.
Guo Hao understood what Guo Wei said, but it was not easy to do it. Not all troops were treated as personal soldiers, and this intensity of training was not something that ordinary people could bear.
"Your idea is good, but it's hard for other armies to do this, not all armies are elite."
"This is natural. The strength of the army is of varying quality. This is inevitable, but ideological work cannot be careless."
"What is ideological work?"
Guo Hao looked at the soldiers in the stands and pointed at them and said, "They are all personal soldiers of the Shizhong. Their mission is to protect the Shizhong.
The missions of other soldiers are different, but they all have a common responsibility, loyal to the people, loyal to the court, loyal to the minister, loyal to His Majesty!"
The four loyalties showed the key points in Guo Hao's mind. Guo Wei pondered for a long time and said, "How can we do this."
Guo Hao laughed and said, "This is simple. Just add a position to the army and be responsible for the ideological education of the soldiers after training. I call him a political commissar, and he is generally a literati, and his status is slightly higher than that of the army."
"Political commissar? The status is higher than that of the commander. Wouldn't it be a mess? Whose order should the soldiers obey?"
"You don't have to worry about this when you go back to Shizhong. The political commissar is only responsible for other matters outside the battle. The combat plan is still decided by the military commander, and the political commissar can only give advice."
"I mean you, I want me to send a military advisor and a military supervisor to each team, remind them at all times, but not give them the right to command the battle?"
"It's almost the case, which makes the political commissar slightly higher, with the purpose of not letting others underestimate him and also facilitates the work to be carried out.
If we can do this, we can also detect abnormal movements of soldiers at any time to prevent someone from having two hearts and resolve internal conflicts in a timely manner."
Guo Hao nodded, always feeling that something was missing. Although this idea is good, it is really difficult to implement it.
In fact, the success of the military system in later generations was based on the convenient information transmission. At this time, the information transmission was slow. If something really happened, they knew that the people who reported the news would probably be dead.
Moreover, the status of literati is low now, and the soldiers have weak identities. For the sake of glory and wealth, they can support the new master without any scruples. Guo Wei and Zhao Kuangyin both rose to power in this way, so it is not easy to change this situation.
"I have to consider the suggestions you mentioned carefully. I can't guarantee that my personal army can be handed over to you. You will serve as the political commissar. I will see the results later."
"yes!"
After Guo Wei left, Guo Hao smiled. After working for so long, his goal was achieved. It was too dangerous to charge or something. It would be better to do logistics and ideological work.
With Guo Wei's order, Guo Hao's identity was improved again and he was responsible for the ideological education of all personal soldiers. His official position was equivalent to Duwaiya, which is Guo Wei's personal army commander.
Guo Hao came to the military camp. Now Guo Wei’s real Duoya is Li Chongjin, the son of Guo Wei’s fourth sister Princess Fuqing, and Guo Wei’s nephew.
After receiving Guo Wei's order, Li Chongjin had no idea what Guo Hao was here to do. Guo Wei had a thousand personal soldiers, five commanders and one of them was in charge of the yamen.
