The great emperor of crossing

Speaking of this, Bai Qi began to have some incomprehension, because he was completely unfamiliar with the method this time.

"Why make the army so small? Isn't our previous approach not good? Wasn't that the way to conquer the world before, the final victory?"

"Because what we are about to face is modern warfare, that is to say, when other people's troops come to attack, we can at least use these same units to figure out how many enemies there are, and through this layer of management, It can cause an overreaction of the entire army to the lowest extent, and don’t forget that the army will still develop towards technology and modernization in the future, so this must be the general trend.”

It's just that this time Bai Qi didn't understand what the truth was, but Han Xin already understood what the real meaning was, because for him, the reform of the army was a question worth thinking about. He became the principal of a military academy, so he has been reading foreign books all this time, only to find that foreign armies have changed accordingly in this way.

"Mr. Wu An, I don't think we should question His Majesty's thoughts right now. If you have an opinion, you can let it go first. Let's try it according to His Majesty's method. If the effect is really not good, it doesn't matter if you change it back."

Han Xin still only uses this method to persuade Baiqi to follow this new approach. After all, this is an improvement for the army. Sometimes it is normal to be confused at the beginning, but this time Han Xin is using Both hands agree.

"Jiran Han Xin has said something like this, so I will naturally support it with all my strength. Although I can't see the benefits of this method now, I think there should be his reasons for it. I accept His Majesty. suggestion."

This is the reason why Zhao Lie chose Han Xin and Bai Qi to reform the army together. These two men are progressive and conservative, and together they can just neutralize a little.

"Since there is no problem, let's talk about the issue of military rank. The current military rank we implement starts from the general. The empire decided to cancel the rank of general in the future and start implementing a new plan. It may touch everyone's interests, but please focus on the present."

After Han Xin heard this statement, he was not very surprised. In fact, since he became the principal, many people still call him the general, but it is really annoying after hearing too much.

"Then what does His Majesty think is the best way to change the military rank?"

Bai Qi still expressed his incomprehension. In his mind, his army has gradually begun to perfect. If he uses this method to carry out corresponding reforms, will it be superfluous?But now he doesn't know whether this method is right or not, so he can only choose to continue to wait.

"Here is a table for everyone. It talks about military ranks and epaulettes. I also designed a set of military uniforms for you. Here are regular combat uniforms and training uniforms. In the future, the army will also start to adopt this method. Make a change."

Such a method makes Zhaolie and Han Xin unable to accept it now. You think everyone has not seen the armor in everyone's mind.

"If we use this method, how will we defend the army in the future? In other words, can we still achieve regional foreign aggression through this method in the future? Everyone is very resistant to this kind of thin clothes. How should we defend at this time?"

"You don't understand this. In fact, many soldiers have begun to respond to the new training outline. The requirements for clothing are already very important. There is no way for everyone to use the current armor, and the army will start to slow down in the future. Slowly cancel the bows and spears, and start to use long guns and various types of guns. I am talking about muskets. Therefore, this requires everyone to have a new training method. At this point, If everyone feels unsafe, the emperor will take the lead."

This time, Zhao Lie brought this matter up in front of everyone again, and it seemed that he couldn't discuss it with everyone.

"Then there is the issue of military rank. In fact, during the first reform, there was a saying that military meritorious service was rewarded. This practice will continue in the future, but we have to do these things in a different way, that is, to increase the military rank. And the non-commissioned officer ranks of the soldiers, I have made a list for you here."

Everyone looked at the list in front of them and felt very shocked. They didn't expect Zhao Lie's reform of the army to be so detailed.

"Your Majesty means that the marshal will be the biggest in the future, and the general will be replaced by the marshal from now on, right?"

"You are very right. In fact, I started to waver between the five-star general and the marshal. Later, I thought the marshal sounded better, and now all countries in the world have their own different military rank systems, but among these military rank systems, There are already some similarities, for example, a very large country on the other side of the ocean has just become independent, and the highest rank they use is a five-star general."

"It seems that this time we are going to become marshals!"

Bai Qi smiled, he still felt that Mr. Wu An sounded more comfortable.

"For all your original titles, for example, Wu Anjun will continue, but there will be no such titles in the future. Bai Qi and Han Xin are naturally the marshals of the empire. I think at this point, The entire army should be beyond reproach, but now I want to tell you that everything is not as easy as you think, so you must be prepared to fight a protracted war no matter what."

Zhao Lie knows that military reform is a protracted battle, so the only thing he can do now is to seize all the time and do all the things he should do at once, so the main purpose of this meeting is to explain everyone thoroughly.

"In other words, we should hurry up to tell everyone about the new military rank, and then hurry up to abolish it, right?"

"You are right. In fact, the empire has not conducted a real awarding ceremony for those generals until now. Although everyone has received their own military merits, I don't think they should deal with these veterans. A very grand awarding ceremony should be what everyone needs to see most."

Such a sentence made everyone feel very warm, which shows that the emperor has always thought about the army, but he was busy with some things and neglected to contact him.
