Chapter 367 Demobilization of the Young Guards and Soldiers!
We will talk about the conflict between natives and guests in the south later! For now, Zhu Youjian feels that it is more important to do a good job in conscription and demobilization.
Since three divisions were expanded before the end of the year last year, Zhu Youjian does not plan to increase the number of troops on a large scale this year. This year's plan is to only add one main battle division and five or six security brigades.
This newly formed main battle division is quite special. It is different from other main battle divisions. Its designation is the 1st Division of the Royal Young Guards.

The Young Guards, it is obvious that the predecessor of this army is the Yongwei Battalion Young Army. During the great changes in the capital two years ago, the Young Guards won the opportunity for the entire Ming Dynasty to turn the crisis around with their tenacious fighting style without fear of sacrifice.
The sacrifice of the young army in that battle was huge, which made Zhu Youjian feel heartbroken. After more than two years of growth, many of the half-grown boys who fought desperately back then have grown up and are old enough to officially join the army!
Zhu Youjian thought about it carefully. Rather than breaking up these children and organizing them into the army, it seemed that relying on them to build a new division would be more rewarding.
The structure of the Young Guards is composed of company and platoon-level officers, 70% of whom are from the young army, and 30% of whom are the youngest officers transferred from military schools and front-line troops. Regiment and brigade levels
The youngest officers with sufficient qualifications are also selected from the army. Of course, youth can no longer be used as the standard for the division level. If there are more than 10,000 troops, all young people, this thing is a bit too radical.
In addition to the normal establishment, the 1st Guards Division also has a special setting. The entire division has set up a regiment-level combat commando team. After the young troops enter the army, their first stop will be as ordinary soldiers in the combat commando team, with outstanding performance.
Those who stand out will be promoted to company and platoon level officers in other brigades.
The first batch of young troops have been tested in fierce battles. If the future young troops are allowed to become officers without being tempered by the fire line, it is likely to have a bad impact.
"Hushan, Jian Heng, in addition to focusing on the formation of the 1st Guards Division these days, you must not delay the demobilization of sergeants. In the past one or two months, we must gather more than 2,000 demobilized soldiers. In addition to the new
In addition to the three divisions formed, every division in the other armies must have quotas, including General Qin's people, and they must also find ways to select some who can be transferred and demobilized. In addition, demobilized soldiers cannot only have soldiers without officers, companies and platoons
There must be officers at the level of regiment and brigade, as well as officers at the regimental and brigade levels.”
"Your Majesty, there is a shortage of officers in the army, especially officers who have experienced military service in battles and are the treasures of the army. How can we let them transfer to other places to do civilian work? I think I can wait until the world is peaceful before letting them go.
Nanshan, it's not too late to get off your horse and govern the people." Huang Degong suddenly became anxious when he heard that the emperor said that some officers would be transferred to other jobs. How could such precious human resources as officers be wasted on local government affairs?
"The reason why officers are demobilized now is to prepare and lay the foundation for the army's lieutenant generals to put their swords and guns into storage in the future! If we don't take the first step now, where will the experience of a large number of demobilized officers in the future come from? Military officials should not panic.
Isn't it? Doesn't the civilian bureaucracy resist this? At present, a certain number of people must be arranged to stand in the front line to explore the way and set an example for the officers who will be demobilized in the future."
Naturally, officer resources are tight, but when the demobilization and demobilization system is implemented for the first time, there must be a certain proportion of officers! If this is the first of its kind, the demobilization system runs the risk of being read wrongly by crooked monks.
At Xuanhua Military Camp, an officer was announcing the list of demobilized and retired soldiers.
"The people from our company who are retiring this year are Wang Dabao, Ding Zengan, Hou Sanwu, Lu Daye, and Liu Jinhai. There are five of you. Please clean up. The whole company will hold a farewell banquet for you tonight. Tomorrow you will follow the instructions organized by the division.
The returning team has returned home to the people! Don’t worry about your future life after returning to the people. Wang Dabao and Ding Zengan have second-class military merit and will be assigned eighth-grade official positions. The other three will be treated as ninth-grade officials. Although their salary
It’s not as high as joining the army, but it’s better because it’s stable and stable, and it’s no problem to support your family. After a few years in the army, you have secured a stable future for yourself.”
The company commander read out the list of soldiers who were about to retire in front of all the company's soldiers. Among these five, two had physical problems during the battle and had an impact on the front line. The other three were a bit older.
They are not very wanted in the army. To be honest, the company commander is still a little jealous of these three unwanted people. These three people who are not good at doing anything in the army can actually pretend to be an official.
From now on, they can work as government servants in peace and security until they are sixty years old. After sixty years old, they don’t have to go to work and can still get paid, until they die. After joining the 1956 army (they were separated from the old army), they fell into a
It's a good deal to have sex in your life. This is a very good deal.
In the current situation, why can't you become a soldier? The death rate of imperial sergeants has been declining in the past two years. It is very likely that you will not die as a soldier in five or six years. As long as you don't die, you will be a ninth-grade soldier at the very least.
The imperial court is compiling officials. It would be even more serious if they have achieved a few meritorious services. It is not difficult to be promoted to an official of eight or nine ranks after being transferred to another job. It is not impossible even to be an official of six or seven ranks. It depends on risking one's life.
What's wrong with having such a background? In the past, people didn't like to join the army to pursue a future. There were two main reasons. First, joining the army, even as a camp soldier, was a lifelong matter. The ultimate fate was that the general would inevitably die in battle;
Second, there are only a few who have a bright future. Most of the grassroots soldiers will be very pitiful when they get old. How miserable is it to go to the battlefield and serve as cannon fodder when they are in their forties or fifties?
With the demobilization and demobilization system, things are completely different. When you are young, you fight for your life and your future. When you are older, you can do light work and you can get a pension when you are old. This cycle is perfect.
"Brother Dabao, do you know where the two of us will be assigned as errands?" After Ding Zeng'an packed his things in the dormitory, he quickly talked to Wang Dabao, who retired with him and had the same rank.
"Didn't we have to wait until we reach the capital to get the result?" Wang Dabao asked Ding Zeng'an curiously. Could it be that he had already heard the gossip?
"It is officially confirmed when we arrive in the capital, but before that, the general principles are already in place. Retired demobilized soldiers like us with military merit can choose from three types of places. One is the capital, Baoding, Tianjin, and two factory areas.
The second is to the prefectures and counties in Northern Zhili and Dengzhou, and the third is to go to Daning and the newly restored areas in southern Liaoning."
"Brother Ding, what are the specific regulations for selecting these three types of places?"
"When you go to Beijing and other places, you can use it at a lower level; when you go to other places in Beizhili, you can use it at the same level; when you go to Daning and Liaonan, you can use it at an upgraded level?"
"Upgrade one level? Brother Ding, are you telling the truth? For people like you and me, if you move up one level, you will have to go from seventh grade!"
"Of course it's true. People at the division headquarters have already spread the news. It's not a secret."
"Brother Ding, what do you think?"
"Hehe! Just as Brother Wang thought, those of us who have been in battle should go to frontline places like Daning and Liaonan. It suits our taste. From Qi's official position, all the former Juren masters are
We have to think of some ways to become one. We are still young, and in a few years there will be no chance of us becoming a seventh-grade magistrate. No matter what, we have to give it a try!"
