Chapter 2877 Beifu is no longer the army it once was
Liu Yu sighed: "The meritorious service of suppressing evil is a little stronger, but it is still thousands of times stronger than those children of aristocratic families who are not enterprising. When he was young, his whole family suffered a disaster, and he was alone in a foreign country. He had a family and it was difficult to return, and he had been in
When he was a child, he was born in a prime minister's family and enjoyed all the glory and wealth. This kind of gap is not something that ordinary people can bear. It is understandable that he is eager to restore the family's glory and has a desire to make contributions. But he should not elevate himself in this way by offending his colleagues.
, I will give him a special warning about this."
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips and said: "The reason behind this matter is not Wang Zhene's desire to make contributions, but that our Beifu Army has changed both in terms of personnel composition and mentality. Ji Nu, don't you think so?"
Did you notice this?"
Liu Yu's heart trembled, and he quickly said: "How do you say this?"
Liu Muzhi said seriously: "As you just said in the tent, Zhuge Changmin said that allowing plunder was an old rule of the Beifu Army. You got angry at that time and said that this was Liu Laozhi's decision before.
Rules don't work here, but you don't want to think about it, Liu Laozhi's Beifu Army is still the same army as the Beifu Army when we surrendered? "
Liu Yu nodded thoughtfully and said: "It is indeed very different. The Beifu Army we voted for was formed based on the refugees from Jingkou and Lianghuai. It was formed to resist the Qin army from destroying the Jin Dynasty and to protect our country.
Each of us thinks more about protecting our Han homeland and traditions, not just about money and women."
"I also confirmed this when I asked everyone about their original intentions. More people are still aiming to be loyal to the country and earn some money for themselves to buy land and marry a wife. They are not purely for wealth. But Liu Laozhi
The Beifu Army has recruited a large number of bandits and thieves. Although these people fight fiercely, they come here purely for money and women. When Liu Laozhi uses them, he also has to use the benefits of robbing homes and houses to stimulate them. In Wudi,
At that time, I fell out with him because of this."
Liu Muzhi sighed: "That's it. Liu Laozhi was defeated in Wuqiaoze. Most of the first batch of elite soldiers died. Seventy-eight of the young men who joined the army with us died. The rest are also difficult to fight."
To form an independent army, this was the reason why the Xie family had no choice but to disband the Beifu Army and give up the leadership position. However, the Mafia later asked Liu Laozhi to re-serve as the Beifu Army coach. Although they considered suppressing Xie Yan's return to control of the Beifu Army,
But Liu Laozhi almost changed the blood of the Beifu Army because of this. Except for the middle and upper-level generals who were still old Beifu people, the soldiers at the grassroots level were almost all newly recruited ruthless bandits. They fought only for profit, not for
The honor and fierceness are even better than those of the old Beifu, but the discipline is extremely poor, and they are regarded as tigers and wolves by the people. They even hate the Beifu army more than the Tianshi Dao. This is why we have been suppressing the rebellion in Wu for many years without any results, and the Tianshi Dao has become more and more popular.
The reason why it is getting stronger and stronger.”
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "So I can no longer allow this to happen. Back then, Marshal Liu and I parted ways because of this. Now that I am the Marshal and in charge of the army, I must strictly enforce military discipline. We are officers and soldiers.
Wang Shi is the world-famous Beifu Army, not a gang of robbers and bandits. Those horse thieves and bandits in the past also died in death, and those who had robbed enough retreated. There are not many of these people left in the Beifu Army that I rebuilt after Jianyi in Jingkou.
.”
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "The atmosphere of an army is closely related to the atmosphere of its first commander when he founded the army. Even the rebuilt Beifu Army will somewhat miss or even retain the old way of fighting wars just to get rich."
The concept of women, just like Zhuge Changmin, a senior general, still thinks that this is the consistent rule of the Beifu Army. It can be seen that this idea is also generally popular among middle and lower-level officers and even sergeants. "Send slaves, although you are strictly prohibited from plundering now, but
The idea of joining the army with a purpose, not to protect the family and the country, but only to achieve personal success, exists in almost everyone's mind."
Liu Yu was silent for a long time, then shook his head and said: "It's true, everyone wants to make contributions, but I can't stop this idea. In the past, I was a soldier just to eat food and earn a living, or at most, to get tax exemption for the whole family.
People like our Jingkou who have a blood feud with the Hulu family have to stand up when the country is in trouble. There is probably only one Jingkou in the entire Jin Dynasty. If you want people to fight hard, you have to give corresponding rewards, so I can only use
There is really no solution to this problem of merit, title, and rewards to make people willing to join the army."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "There is nothing wrong with this in itself, but the so-called gentleman loves money and gets it in a wise way. It is certainly a good thing to achieve merit on the battlefield based on his personal ability. But in order to win that merit, he will not hesitate to go
It's not a good thing to rob or even scheming with your colleagues. Slave, do you understand what I mean?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Perhaps, the overt and covert competition between Xile and I over the years has given everyone a bad example. Many things are still caused by me. I think that to solve this root cause, we have to...
………”
Liu Muzhi waved his hand: "It has nothing to do with you. You and Xile were also brothers back then, and you made a lot of concessions to him, but he still pushed forward. Did you learn from someone else?"
Liu Yu sighed, speechless.
Liu Muzhi said seriously: "Everyone is greedy, and greed brings about competition. What I want to say is that the Beifu Army has been different from before after its reconstruction. In the past, most of the people were from Jingkou or Lianghuai."
, relatively familiar, because there will be room for relationships with fellow villagers, but since you established the Yiyi, warriors from all directions have come to join us, and unconsciously, the composition of the Beifu Army has also changed."
"Old Beifu is still dominated by people from Jingkou. Many of these people are already senior generals and have mastered the power in the army. However, there are several other forces. One is the children of aristocratic families who are now joining the army and want to make contributions. Basically, they do not hold military positions.
Those who are only engaged in civilian jobs such as joining the army and serving as clerks, like Yu Yue, although they have done some military affairs, they still mainly focus on collecting military merits. Once they feel that the merits are enough, they will leave. To put it bluntly, they are not like us
The Beifu Army still cannot be said to be of one mind, and if we leave like this, our management work will be under great pressure before the new batch of children from aristocratic families who want to join the Kungfu come. I have been short of manpower here these days. If it happens in ten days
If there are no new people to take over and help, I’m afraid there will be problems with the subsequent logistics supply.”
Liu Yu frowned: "They are nobles after all. They don't need to be conquered. As long as they find a family member to give birth to a child, they can leave the reason for their nephew's marriage. The national law is like this. I have no choice but to urge the second batch to join the army."
The disciples of the aristocratic family should be in place as soon as possible. If that doesn't work, let Fan Ning and his disciples take over first."
