"The general will make a list next. How much money we spent, how much money we robbed, and how much money we gave to everyone will be written down one by one. As a member, everyone has the right to audit the accounts. If
If any fraud is found, I will reward you ten times the amount of money. I am here, the general, and I will do what I say. Everyone is welcome to supervise."
This is Su Shi's true purpose.
He just wants to tell everyone that I give you the power to grab it and seize it.
You also have the power to snatch and seize.
Again, the Song Dynasty did not lack passionate men, nor did it lack those who dared to fight. What it lacked was just a good reward system and due respect.
There is no difference between you winning a battle and losing a battle.
If a person dies in war, he can only receive a few dollars in compensation. Is that person's life worth such a small amount of money?
Who is disgusting?
If you fight well, you will lose something. If you put in more effort, you will be less effective. What motivation does this give everyone to fight and win the war?
Even if they don't, it would be weird to try to arm-wrestle with an alien race with such an army and win.
Su Shi's words made everyone's blood boil with excitement.
Is this really possible?
That should be the case. Su Shi told this matter in front of so many people, so he shouldn't regret it. Otherwise, where is his credibility?
Everyone no longer believes in him. Can he still command the army to fight?
Just when many people were doubtful, Su Shi on the reviewing stand spoke again: "When everyone gets to the front line, there will be a scoring system. So what is the scoring system? That is, for every person you kill, you get one point.
, each time you make a contribution, you can get one to ten points.
.”
"I'm afraid there are still some people who don't know clearly. This time the officials have great expectations for us and have given me all the rewards given by the fifth-grade guerrilla general. In other words, as long as you have the ability, you can set more
By accumulating more merit points through meritorious service, it is possible to change from a soldier to a lieutenant, or from a lieutenant to a general, and all of this will also be open and transparent."
"What? Is there such a thing?"
The shock caused by these words was far more exciting than the previous monetary reward.
The Preparatory Forbidden Army is different from other armies of the Song Dynasty. Those who can enter here have many people with backgrounds. Although they are not very strong, they are also the kind who have never worried about life.
One hundred guan is a lot, isn't it?
It's quite a lot, but in the eyes of these people, it's not enough to make them work hard. They may be promoted to generals, which is completely different.
The Song Dynasty emphasized literature and suppressed military force, and the promotion of soldiers was also in the hands of civilian officials.
If they say you can do it, you can do it, and you can do it if you don’t.
As a result, many times, if a soldier wants to be promoted, it is not enough just to perform meritorious service. It also depends on whether there is someone above you, whether you are willing to give money, whether the person you are looking for is willing to help, etc.
When the promotion of generals also requires the permission of civilian officials, it is simply impossible for them to be tough in front of civilian officials.
This makes military generals naturally feel less confident when facing civilian officials.
But now, Su Shi said that the promotion of guerrilla generals depends on merit and does not need to worry about anything else. This is tantamount to opening up a broad road to all those who think they are capable or confident. In this way, anyone who has
Who doesn’t want to exhaust the person they pursue?
There are ways to make meritorious deeds, even to fight with one's life.
At this moment, the enthusiasm of the 30,000 people who participated in the battle was mobilized. Not only that, but the tens of thousands of preparatory imperial troops who were watching were also interested.
Some people began to regret why they did not sign up yesterday.
The opportunity is just right in front of you, if you miss it, you miss it.
"Okay, now let's start distributing money, one by one. No one can get more, and no one can get less. Everyone is supervising each other." Su Shi put down the loudspeaker in his hand and finally said everything he wanted to say.
That's it, now it's time to see how everyone actually performs.
"Lieutenant Yang, come here." Su Shi saw Yang Wenguang who had already received hundreds of dollars. He originally wanted to call him by his first name, but considering that the relationship between everyone was going to be superior and subordinate, being too close to him might cause harm.
Some people thought it was unfair, so they called him out of his official position.
Yang Wenguang trotted over, "General, what are your orders?"
"Go and make preparations and select four thousand soldiers who are good at riding and fighting. As the vanguard, the Privy Council has prepared four thousand war horses. We will leave the city as soon as the city gates open tomorrow morning."
Su Shi was not going to go with the large army, as that would be too slow. He wanted to rush to the Northland first, give those foreigners a surprise, and tell them that I am here, and you can all calm down, otherwise, you
The end is coming.
"It's an order."
Yang Wenguang was very excited when he heard that he could be a pioneer. He immediately agreed and turned around to pick someone.
Su Shi now trusted himself and did not let Yang Wenguang feel arrogant. On the contrary, he felt that there was a heavy burden on his shoulders. He must carefully select good soldiers and generals. He could not
He betrayed Su Shi's trust in him.

Zichen Palace.
What happened on the reviewing ground was quickly reported here.
At this time, more than a dozen impeachment memorials have been piled up on the Long case.
They are all about impeaching Su Shi. The contents written in them are all kinds of things.
Some people say that Su Shi's murderous intent was too strong and was contrary to the way of a saint.
Some people say that Su Shi changed the ancestral system. In this way, the army will become bigger and the country will be more difficult to manage.
They also said that Su Shi was supporting his troops and respecting himself. From now on, these people would only see Su Shi without the imperial court, and they would be in a position to be invincible.
To put it more simply, Su Shi did not understand soldiers. Such a person was not worthy of leading an army at all. His power should be taken back and he should be imprisoned and punished.
Zhao Zhen read all the memorials one by one, then put them together and threw them to Zhang Maoze who was standing aside, "Go and send these all to Tianyou Hutong."
It was my own idea to activate Su Shi.
Yesterday at the court meeting, only Su Shi stood up and shouldered all the responsibilities.
Such a person, not only can save the situation from falling, but also help the building from falling, at least he is also a responsible person.
Much better than those civil servants who can only talk but can't solve the problem at all.
But now, as soon as they saw Su Shi actually taking charge of the army, everyone started to feel envious and jealous again.
Okay, if you have the ability, I can withdraw Su Shi now. After all, it is not a glorious thing to let a person with leg problems lead the troops in a war.
But these people can only impeach and accuse, and no one can think of other ways to solve the problem.
Not to mention, pointing them to replace Su Shi and volunteering
Already.
They are just a bunch of villains who are jealous of capable people. It is strange that Zhao Zhen can like them. And I am too lazy to have any disputes with these people. I might as well tell Su Shi about the matter and let him solve it.
.
Zhang Mao agreed, and then called Xiao Huangmen to handle the matter. Then he stood beside Zhao Zhen again and waited on him, "Your Majesty, these people are also worried that Mr. Su will not be able to exercise control now that he has military power."
"Okay, of course I know what they mean. Normally, I would not agree to let him do this. But now, with the three tribes coming to attack, do we have any other options?"
Sighing, Zhao Zhen continued, "Wang Xin can be considered a capable person, but he still has too few troops. It would be good if he could maintain the current situation. And now the Liao people have not participated in the war. Once they are found,
Opportunity, we sent a large army, I am afraid that there will be big problems on the northern front, and people like Su Shi will be needed at this time."
How could Zhao Zhen not know the importance of protecting imperial power by emphasizing culture and restraining force?
Don’t you see that the Tang Dynasty perished like this? Wasn’t it because the military power was transferred to the outside world, and the military governors in various places supported their own troops, and finally invaded the imperial court?
Military power must never be given away, let alone allow warriors to become stronger. This was originally the ancestral motto of the Zhao family.
But even if it is an ancestral teaching, it still has to be determined when.
The Northern Front of the Song Dynasty is now in danger. Once Wang Xin is defeated, the consequences will be even more disastrous. At this time, we cannot continue to follow the conventional path.
At this time, a strong person like Su Shi needs to appear. Even if he changes certain military regulations because of this, Zhao Zhen will just turn a blind eye and close one eye and just pretend that it is not the case.
See.
Now is the time to use Su Shi. As an emperor, of course he cannot restrain himself.
Just as Su Shi said in the court yesterday, the Song Dynasty is really dead, and everyone else can surrender, but those with the blood of the Zhao family cannot surrender, and foreigners will not accept their surrender.
Even so, is there any other choice?
I just hope that Su Shi's visit can stabilize the situation on the northern front. If the battle is still defeated, even if he wants to negotiate next, he doesn't know what kind of price he will have to pay.
"Su Shi, I hope you won't disappoint me."
...
Zhaoren Palace.
King Jing Zhao Xi met Wang Miao. He also came here to say goodbye and at the same time made a detailed report on what happened in the afternoon.
"Okay, Su Shaofu is courageous and doesn't take the ordinary path, which is good. The soldiers of the Song Dynasty should be so passionate." Zhao Xi was greatly encouraged after hearing this and said excitedly.
"Your Highness, Su Shaofu's actions are not a bit excessive. If this happens, I am afraid that the military will regain its morale and become bigger." Wang Miao reminded in a low voice.
"What are you afraid of? There are only 50,000 soldiers in total. Compared with the millions of soldiers in the Song Dynasty, these people are nothing. Besides, you don't understand Su Shaofu. He was originally a lazy person. He is not as good as you think.
He likes power so much, and he prefers to live a free life. It's just that this time there was a crisis in the Song Dynasty, and seeing that no one stood up, he had to come out."
Hehehe smiled, Zhao Xi looked like I understand Su Shi, but you don't.
"However, there are also some generals in the court who have been on the battlefield, and their abilities are not weak." Wang Miao seemed a little uncomfortable.
He said willingly.
"PS; Thanks to Huiguan Thatched Cottage for the large reward and monthly ticket to the Song Dynasty, I have added three chapters for this. This is the second chapter."
