Chapter 156 Military Rank System

The property rights of some ships cannot be regarded as belonging to one leader. These ships were originally the private property of Zheng Yiguan. When the leaders on the ship decided to betray Zheng Yiguan, they had obtained the consent of other people on the ship and turned against each other collectively to join Sea Wolf. So, then

Even if the property rights of this ship belong to everyone on the ship, the leader can take the majority share, but other people on the ship must also share some profits.

In response to this situation, the ship was priced and distributed directly to everyone on the ship, so as to save some people from being dissatisfied. Even the leader who brought the ship had nothing to say. After all, they still accounted for the majority.

Take advantage.

In this way, all these dozens of boats were quickly eaten by Yu Xiaotian. The appearance was not ugly, and everyone was happy in the end.

These descendants were re-screened and selected, and those who were not suitable were eliminated and arranged to be transferred to Tamsui City Farm to become farmers.

Those who are young and strong are left behind, and those who are good at sailing are assigned to serve on the Navy ships, but they must first report to the Navy recruit camp and undergo retraining before being assigned to the ships.

Some personnel who are not good at operating ships are assigned to serve in the combat barracks. Of course, they must first undergo training in the combat barracks before being assigned.

Some of the ship owners were tired of the business and no longer wanted to do this kind of business of licking blood on the ship, so Yu Xiaotian also generously asked them where they wanted to go.

For those who are willing to settle in Tamsui City, they can be assigned to Tamsui City and resettled in some immigrant villages. With the money they get from selling boats, they can become a small rich man.

If they don’t want to stay in Sea Wolf’s territory to make a living, that’s no problem. Sea Wolf can use various means to clear their identities on land, let them stay anonymous on land, and use their money to buy some land.

You can become a small landowner.

As for those who are willing to stay and follow him, Yu Xiaotian welcomes them with both hands, but they must first go to the Navy Recruitment Camp to receive advanced training. Advanced training is used to train captains and first mates. It mainly cultivates their command ability, so as to avoid

After they are directly appointed as captains, they do not know how to command and operate the waves in the fleet, which will only cause chaos. Therefore, anyone selected by Sea Wolf as captain and first mate must first receive such training.

, and then you can enter the queue and wait to board the ship.

Moreover, Yu Xiaotian assured these people that after they pass the training, they can be placed in the front and board the ship earlier without having to sit on the bench for a long time. During the period of sitting on the bench, they will also be paid.

.

It was not until this time that these people basically understood how Sea Wolf controls its subordinates. To work here, you have to rely on your ability to earn a living. Ranking based on seniority seems to be a bit unworkable here, and the pressure of competition is very high. Becoming a captain

It's not a one-and-done thing. If you don't do it well, you'll get off immediately. Some captains who don't have a boat are queuing up behind them, waiting to get on the boat.

Yu Xiaotian didn't put in much effort to digest and absorb the new batch of Zheng Yiguan's former subordinates. He believed that after training, these people could be well integrated into his Sea Wolf system.

Among them, he will become his general from now on.

However, Yu Xiaotian was not satisfied with the current structure of his military system and decided to make a large-scale reorganization of his navy and soldiers.

In mid-August, all the heads of the various departments of Sea Wolf were called together. At this meeting, Yu Xiaotian announced a plan to reorganize the Sea Wolf military system.

First of all, he announced that from now on, Sea Wolf's navy and combat troops will officially become an army. This means that from now on, the name of Sea Wolf's navy will be changed to the navy, and the combat camp will be renamed the army from now on, formally forming two armies: sea and land.

kind.

Second, it turns out that although there are hierarchies within the Sea Wolves, the hierarchies are not clear. Especially in the military system, the hierarchies are not clear and are only called leaders. However, many people are not sure who has the higher status.

In the army, it is difficult to ensure that there will be no casualties among the chief officers during wartime. Once there are casualties among the chief officers, if there is no clear distinction between military ranks, the entire army may be in chaos.

The practice of later generations was to use the military rank system to make distinctions. Once there was a situation on the battlefield where the chief officer was injured and unable to continue commanding the troops, it was not clear who would take over the command. Under normal circumstances, the officer with the highest rank would automatically take over.

Come and take over the command.

Sometimes the troops may run away or become separated during the battle, or even be dispersed. Personnel who are separated from the main force will often encounter each other. According to the practice of later generations, it is also the person with the highest military rank who takes the lead.

To be responsible for gathering the separated or stragglers and commanding them.

This is written into the military regulations. When the province appears, no one will listen to anyone else. Everyone wants to gain command power to command the troops. In the end, there will only be chaotic command and multiple commands, and no one can command.

Everyone understands whose situation and what the outcome will be.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian decided to formally introduce the military rank system of later generations into the Sea Wolf military system.

As long as there is a military rank system, these situations will be much easier to handle in the future. The troops will obey whoever has the higher military rank, unless the Wolf's Den headquarters designates someone to be the commander before the troops set off. In this case,

Only high-ranking officers will obey the command of lower-ranking officers. Otherwise, according to the new regulations, low-ranking officers must obey the command and dispatch of higher-ranking officers.

No one has any opinions on this point raised by Yu Xiaotian. Now everyone wears similar clothes without obvious signs. Although the uniforms of officers are better than those of ordinary soldiers, this is just to let people know who is an officer and who is an ordinary soldier.

The tribesmen still don't know who has the higher military rank, which will inevitably lead to some confusion, so they have no objection to setting the military rank.

As for the military rank plan proposed by Yu Xiaotian, these subordinates were a little confused, because Yu Xiaotian proposed a three-level officer system of generals, captains, and lieutenants, which they had never heard of.

According to the military ranks of the Ming Dynasty, the highest rank is generally the general soldier, but the general soldier generally obeys the command of the governor. The Ming Dynasty, like the Song Dynasty, emphasized civility over military affairs. Regardless of the rank of military attaché to the general soldier, it is regarded as the second or second grade of the military attache series.

From the second rank, but in front of civil servants, even the fourth and fifth rank civil servants, they had to put their tail between their legs and carefully claim their humble position. It was not until the Chongzhen period, after the national affairs collapsed, that these military generals began to support their troops and respect themselves.

I bought the account of the civil servants.

Under the general rank, there are usually deputy generals, staff generals, guerrilla generals, thousand generals, general generals, and below that there are chief flag officers and small flag officers, but I have never heard of such official ranks as generals, lieutenants, and lieutenants.

Moreover, the military rank system proposed by Yu Xiaotian divides officers into three levels of generals, captains, and lieutenants, and each level is divided into four levels. There are a total of twelve levels from top to bottom, namely general, general, lieutenant general, and major general.

, colonel, colonel, lieutenant colonel, major, captain, captain, lieutenant and second lieutenant.

These twelve military ranks made them confused for a while, how to compare with the military ranks of the officers of the Ming Dynasty, and which rank was roughly equal to which rank of the Ming army.

Seeing that the group of people below were confused, Yu Xiaotian knew that they would definitely be confused, so he simply made a chart, compared it with his subordinates and said: "Look at this, everyone will understand. The commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty can be regarded as

The highest military rank! Among our military ranks, they are probably lieutenant general and major general, but they are not as high as general and general. General and general will basically be regarded as the minister of the Ministry of War! So you should

Got it!

For deputy generals, they should be classified into the two levels of major general and senior colonel. Then, among our military ranks, deputy generals should be classified into the two levels of colonel and lieutenant colonel. They should be distinguished according to the number of leaders, different seniority, and different merits.

The guerrillas are basically majors and captains. Generally, they are considered to be the first level of captain. Once they reach the rank of colonel, they are mid-level and senior generals. By analogy, the commander-in-chief Qian is the captain and lieutenant, and the commander-in-chief is the second lieutenant.

To put it more simply, among our current navy, like ordinary patrol ships, the captain of a ship with more than ten to twenty sailors will be awarded the rank of ensign and enter the officer sequence!

The captains of ships such as bird boats and schooners can be awarded the rank of lieutenant. The captain of the No. 2 Fu Ship can also be awarded the rank of lieutenant, but his promotion is faster than that of captains on other ships. He can be promoted to captain.

Military rank.

For example, the detachment leaders among you should be awarded the rank of captain or captain.

As for Ma Xiao, Hu Cheng, Liu Yidao, One-Eyed Dragon, Luo Xianbin and you guys, you can be awarded the rank of major and captain!

As for combat soldiers, that is, in the future army, the current squad leader and deputy captain are awarded the rank of second lieutenant, the squadron leader and deputy squadron leader are awarded the rank of lieutenant, and the captain and deputy group leader are awarded the rank of captain.

Like Li Dazui and Meng Fei, you can be awarded the rank of captain or major!

When I say this, you should roughly understand it!"

After listening to Yu Xiaotian's explanation, the leaders in the military system basically understood the military ranks "invented" by Yu Xiaotian, and they all grinned.

Although none of them can be awarded a military rank above a major, let alone a general, they are still very satisfied with their current military ranks.

Because compared with the military ranks mentioned by Xiaotian and the military ranks on land, people like Ma Xiao, Liu Yidao, and Hu Cheng are now basically guerrilla-level officers, and the Ming Dynasty has not yet completely reached the end of the world.

In the last years of Chongzhen, officers were awarded everywhere, and the generals were awarded casually to generals. Later, the generals of the Ming Dynasty ran around the streets and grabbed a lot of them.

(I’m finally settled. I’ll resume updating two chapters a day next month. Yesterday I saw a brother talking about the slow progress in the group. I thought about it and will speed up the progress in the future! In addition, try to find more time to write more and strive to update more.

Some! Please bear with me, brothers!)
