Wen Desi is back. Originally, he planned to wait until the ship was completed before returning. Now that he heard that Bo Pu was attacked, he quickly boarded a ship transporting supplies and rushed back to Bo Pu.
It seemed that it was right to carry out phalanx training. After Wen Desi went to Bopu for an inspection, he couldn't help but feel a little proud of the results. Although phalanx training and horizontal formation and column tactics were mainly determined based on the level of weapons, the effect
It was so good that Xi Yazhou, who first proposed this plan, was very excited - this experience is worth promoting in the future.
Bairen sent a Beijing 212 to take him back, and Ma Qianzhu happened to follow the car back to Bairen.
Along the way, he and Commander Ma had an in-depth exchange of experiences on this battle. Although Wen Desi was also worried about the increasing independence of the army, both sides agreed that military expansion was a top priority.
"If there are two groups of people, one by sea, one by land, twenty large ships, and two to three thousand people on the ground, this battle will not be so easy to win."
"Thankfully for this battle, we paid close attention to the military training of the Chuanchuang soldiers in the past. The main and backbone members are almost all Chuanchuan soldiers."
"Yes, that's what worries me. The new army's combat effectiveness is not good." Ma Qianzhu's face was cold. Compared with the cheerful crowd, he was not happy at all. During the post-war investigation, he found that there were some new
Not to mention fighting bravely, the soldiers could not even put on a show of grandeur. They basically ran away as soon as the cannon was fired. "Political education is not enough," he concluded.
Wen Desi laughed out loud, and Ma Qianxu said: "I know you are going to say that I am invincible in political education again. What good idea do you have? Isn't this just a villain's advice?"
"If you ask me, religion is the best. The biggest killer."
"You want to be an archangel!" Ma Qianzhu was very clear about Wen Desi's ideal, "Absolutely not! It's too heretical."
Wen Desi smiled helplessly: "I know everyone disagrees. Now I still talk about the political and ideological issues of the army."
"Say it."
"A soldier fights to earn a living, and a soldier fights to survive and get ahead. The fundamental purpose determines subjective initiative." Wen Desi said, "Most of our current New Army soldiers are here to earn a living.
As for the food, he felt like a kindly rich man here, who was well-fed and well-dressed, so he only ordered this much. They wouldn't die from this delicious meal."
"There are also houses and fields -"
"That's right, but it's just a picture to them." Wen Desi said, "I think the soldiers recruited from the commune have a much firmer stance, because they know that we must keep our word and our actions must be resolute. Recruit from outside.
Come? It’s hard to say.”
"High salary? I don't agree with this. We have given enough, and once soldiers fight for money, they won't be able to use it if they don't have money in the future."
"It doesn't have to be a salary increase, you can give a bonus." Wen Desi grasped the armrest of the car, "Duke, after such a victory, what can we do without a certain reward? I heard that after the battle yesterday, I was given to the soldiers.
A meal of horse meat?”
"The infantry did not fight at all, but they won after firing more than a dozen cannons."
"Didn't the people line up and charge? Besides, the people who traveled through time made great contributions to the second battle, but the executive committee didn't show any sign of it. Isn't it chilling?"
This was indeed an oversight. In Ma Qianzhu's original idea, he wanted to take this opportunity to commend honors, record merit, and even award medals, but he did not consider the matter of distributing money and rewarding people. At this time, he suddenly realized , time travelers are also human beings!
This conclusion made him smile bitterly. It seems that if you get used to being a leader, you will forget many things. This time Dugu proposed, Wang Ruixiang, Lin Shenhe and others all contributed a lot. If they didn't express anything, it would definitely be chilling. .
"You are right, but I have reservations about the bonus."
"The bonuses don't have to be money, such as cigarettes, cola, etc. The indigenous people can give them rice, salt, or cloth."
Ma Qianzhu nodded, this is something that can be considered.
"The military's technological advantage is not great enough." The New Army suffered such heavy losses. If they start a war with the official army in the future, wouldn't they have to lose all their capital?
"If we had machine guns and grenades, we would be much stronger." Wen Desi said, "But we are better than the system -"
"Holy crap, are you also a member of the institutional party?"
"Even so, obviously our combat system is better than all the armies in this time and space." Wen Desi stretched his waist, "I boarded the ship early in the morning. I can't go back to sleep after a while. Little secret hug."
"I'm worried about two things now," Ma Qianxu said. "The first is that military expansion affects production and takes up too much labor; the second is the issue of military control."
"I have thought about this issue too," Wen Desi said, "What do you think, Governor?"
"Establish an internal affairs department, expand the internal affairs forces, and implement checks and balances on the military. At a certain time, the administrative committee system will be implemented."
"The political commissar system has no meaning at all for the current army. You want the Yuanmeng to monitor the Yuanzong? Isn't this going to cause chaos immediately?" Wen Desi pointed out, "If the internal affairs troops expand too fast, the meaning will be too obvious. The military leaders will also Not an idiot."
"your thoughts?"
"I think we can't talk about the issue of checks and balances now. The key is to set up the system and then strictly implement the system. In this way, everyone will have nothing to say, and no one will say it is against them." Wen Desi thought for a moment, "It is still important to govern the country in accordance with the law. We must not engage in Machiavellian thinking, otherwise there will be endless consequences. For example, the current weapons and ammunition management system is too loose. Although most weapons are centralized, it is very easy to obtain guns. We still need to The number of weapons must be determined. Which department should be equipped with how many guns and how many ammunition should be prepared, and the storage responsibility must be assigned to the person. The centralized storage system for ammunition must be strictly implemented."
"The authority to mobilize, dispatch, and dispatch troops——"
"That's right. No matter what kind of country we will become in the future, no one will want to see the few societies with a natural constitution among the population. So from now on, we must formulate rules and regulations and develop the habit of doing things according to the system. "This is the most troublesome, but also the most important." Wen Desi said, feeling quite regretful. In fact, he prefers a dystopian country, but there are too many strongmen in this group, so it is better not to do it. .
Wen Desi continued: "As for military expansion, although it is necessary, I am afraid that too much expansion will affect production. Should we reduce the number of people in each batch as much as possible?"
"The plan is to reach 1,000 people in three months. This is not high. In fact, you don't have to worry: can the army also support production?"
Wen Desi smiled: "That's right! We can also make three!" He consciously made a mistake and said, "It's two."
"Don't be so sensitive!" Ma Qianzhu also laughed, "Two are just two. Although I am a leftist, I still support the nationalization of the military. Political struggles mixed with violence will also have endless consequences."
The security team was busy again today. In the two battles during the day and night yesterday, hundreds of prisoners were captured. The large amount of screening and prisoner interrogation work made Ran Yao feel a little overwhelmed. He quickly asked someone to call Mu Min back.
, and translators who knew various dialects were recruited from various places. Zhou Dongtian also continued to serve the security team without hesitation.
The official work finally started today. The first batch of selected prisoners were sent to the security team office.
This security group office was also replaced with a gun. It was originally located in the Executive Committee compound in Bairen City. Later, the Executive Committee complained that the lights there often stayed on all night, and screams were heard from time to time, which even attracted a certain person.
In addition, it was not appropriate to bring locals who had not been "purified" into the city. Therefore, during the infrastructure construction frenzy, the security team simply moved outside the city and built a building on the site of the original prisoner detention camp.
The courtyard and the outside of the courtyard are protected by barbed wire, trenches and watchtowers. There is a two-story building in the courtyard, where the various offices of the security team are located. On the left side of the courtyard is an independent courtyard - this is the prison.
The interrogation room is located in the main room in the prison yard. The doors and windows of the room are deliberately covered with black cloth, creating the effect of a dark room. Inside the room, there is no such thing as the top ten tortures of the Qing Dynasty, it is just a
Fixed chairs with handcuffs and shackles, a few tables, and a lamp.
Most of the prisoners caught during the day yesterday had already been through the court once. Generally speaking, they were not very profitable. The prisoners were basically temporary workers. The most senior ones could not explain why. They just kept saying that Zhu Cai Lao sent them here.
But the Executive Committee obviously didn't believe this statement. The prisoners captured at night were much more complicated. Although there were only about fifty people, they looked like some Chinese and some natives from Southeast Asia. Several of them looked like
It's Ah San, and there are two other people with curly hair, deep eyes, and pale skin. They look like foreigners at first glance.
This makes Ran Yao a little embarrassed. The various dialects in this time and space are enough to give people a headache, but now there are so many people here, forget about foreigners, they can speak English, Spanish and so on across the world.
It can still be found, but what language did Asan and the Southeast Asian natives speak at that time?
After thinking for a long time, I decided to start with Chinese pirates.
When interrogating prisoners, they mainly looked at their clothes first. Those who were in tatters and looked malnourished would definitely not be leaders, so those who looked the best and were neatly dressed were singled out from the crowd first.
Outside the interrogation room, there were several police officers with sticks led by Dugu Sui, who were temporarily seconded. There were also some soldiers with rifles with bayonets. Dugu Sui was a show-stopper in the battle at Bopu, and the pirates attacked
He was frightened when he heard the news. He saw this evil star holding a machete and looking at them one by one with a grin. The pirates who were sitting in a bunch in the yard waiting for questioning felt a little chill on the back of their necks.
Ran Yao personally conducted the interrogation during the interrogation, and there were also three translators inside, who could speak Cantonese Mandarin, Lingao dialect and Minnan dialect respectively. After Dugu proposed and arranged the guards, he also neatly put on his equipment and prepared... (He ventilated before the interrogation.
Said that as long as anyone resists, he will be executed immediately...)
