I became the son of Renzong

"Niu Ben has emotions?"

"In terms of merit and deeds, I have left alone Commander Niu..."

I can't go any further, and if I say it again, I will blame the frontline headquarters, and I will blame His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Go, call Niu Ben! This idiot is looking for trouble!"

Niu Ben came, with a look of beating.

"I heard you have emotions? Don't want to fight this battle?"

"Commander, don't! I already know I was wrong, and I have admitted my mistake to Your Highness...I...I..."

Niu Ben was frightened by Cao Lin's words that he didn't want to fight this battle... How many years, how many years has the guard battalion been thinking about a war!

Even if he is reduced to a pawn, he cannot be returned...

"What are you, hesitant..."

This conversation made Zhong Er and Zhe Jizu dumbfounded.Is this advice?Doesn't this make Niu Ben more emotional?

This is before the war!At this time, even civil servants would not show embarrassment to generals at this time. How could he, Cao Lin, do this?

"Commander, I'm not emotional, I just feel ashamed! I fought the first battle of the new army, but with hundreds of gunpowder bombs, only three to four hundred people were killed...~ I guess the brothers still don't know how to laugh at me!"

Ah... what are you talking about?shame?Can this be a shame?If this is embarrassing, isn't the Western Army, the most powerful in the country, considered shameless?

Kinder and Zhe Jizu feel ashamed of what they said.

"Go back and change that face that deserves to be beaten. Afraid of being laughed at? Afraid of being laughed at and then get back on the stage? Like a bitch, are you playing Yulinling?"

As if this was a compliment, his expression immediately softened...

Niu Ben was anxious, and the reason for his anxiety was that he was worried about being sent back to the guard camp guarding Bianliang.

This time he knew he was wrong, and he was expecting to be punished, but he was not punished... This made him feel uncertain.

And Cao Lin said: Find the place again and let him know that he will not be returned, so I feel at ease now.

Cao Lin's words were just a few words of reprimand, which made the slumped Niu Ben look radiant, and surprised Chong Er and Zhe Jizu.

This is the Guard Battalion, a system that outsiders cannot understand.

For many years, Zhao Xi has been instilling his ideas and ideas in the guard camp, so that the entire guard camp soldiers, put honor in a higher position in this life.

How can others understand?And the new army, as well as the future imperial imperial army, will be armed with such ideas...

Victory in the first battle, killing five hundred people, this is a great victory, a real victory.

When the news of victory arrived in Bianliang, the courtiers and common people who were worried about the battle situation finally felt relieved.

This is a good sign, the official fight has not yet started, and [-] people have been killed...

"Whoever made the first contribution should be rewarded!"

"Returning to the official's house, the first soldier of the guard battalion, the eighth-rank Xuanjie school captain Niu Ben."

"reward!"

"Officials, with the good news, there are the frontline headquarters' opinions on rewards and punishments for the first battle, and Captain Niu's self-incrimination letter."

Fu Bi and Han Qi also did not understand the handling of the frontline headquarters, that is, Zhao Xi, but after all, that was the frontline and had the most say.

The point is, but after they read Niu Ben's letter of pleading guilty, they didn't understand it even more.

So is Zhao Zhen...

"There was no investigation before the war, miscalculation of the size of the camp, and failure to properly deploy the coverage and area of ​​gunpowder, resulting in serious damage to the camp..."

Is this a bug?This is where the credit lies!

Zhao Zhen was stunned after reading the self-incrimination letter.For a while, I didn't know how to deal with it.

For all matters involving the guard battalion, the entire imperial court, including him, Zhao Zhen, will mainly rely on Xi'er's suggestions... That place is different from any army in the imperial court.

But this is the time when the Kingdom is fighting...

"Everyone..."

"Officials, look at the situation at the frontline headquarters... It is a fact that the first battle was successful. However, His Royal Highness believes that Niu Ben, who is familiar with the power of gunpowder and is the commander of the first attack, blindly fired more than a breakthrough attack without actual investigation. The camp has a lot of gunpowder base."

"Although the result of the battle has not changed, it is still a fact of total annihilation, but it actually caused waste. The waste of gunpowder and ammunition is one aspect. In order to ensure that the decisive battle line remains unchanged, the Eastern Route Army may need to rebuild camps, or change established tactics, etc. , All of these require Captain Niu to take responsibility."

"Because it is the first battle, the total annihilation is meritorious, and the punishment is not appropriate, so the merits and demerits will be offset, and no rewards and punishments will be given. I believe that the frontline headquarters shall prevail for the rewards for the first battle."

For all matters involving the guard battalion and the new army, the opinions of His Royal Highness should be given priority.Because they are different from the original army of the country, they are a brand new army supported and built with honor and faith.

Chapter 324 How to Fight

The improvement of armaments cannot ignore the mental arming of soldiers.Zhao Xi is well aware of the importance of arming the mind with thought.

The loyalty, obedience and admonition of the gate wall of the guard camp, and the sense of honor, family and country concept, belief, etc. The system was instilled in every soldier, and after years of repetition, the whole system took root in the heart... This is the real change, or sublimation, of the guard battalion over the years.

Therefore, when training the new army, the ideological system of the entire guard battalion was fully transmitted to every soldier of the new army, so as to complete the real transformation of the Imperial Guard Army.

All of this does not just stop at the guard camp. It should be said that the entire industrial system Zhao Xi built is shrouded in this kind of thinking and concept, thus forming a brand new value system and forming a large-scale ideological environment... in the future , The change of the entire country is a complete change.

Those courtiers can feel some changes, but everyone will think that this is the practice of the former ministers in the hidden residence, and they are all proud to serve the heirs of the empire.

No one would think that the arrogance of all His Royal Highness's industrial systems comes from the heart, a natural arrogance born of self-reliance and self-reliance.

"Officials, Xi'er's treatment is different from inside and outside, and she doesn't favor her own army. This is setting a benchmark and example for rewards and punishments."

"In terms of strict discipline, there is a precedent set by Niu Ben, and there is no reason for anyone on the front line to refute the punishment of the generals of the Western Army in the future."

"From the perspective of the overall war, take Niubun as a lesson to remind all generals to carry out necessary investigation and assessment before combat. In this way, avoiding waste is one aspect, and the most important thing is to avoid large-scale casualties .”

"In the war between the Kingdom and Xia for many years, every time there was a big loser, the generals were blind and underestimated the western thieves. As a result, due to some accidental factors, they lost again and again."

"By doing this, Xi'er is telling the entire frontline generals that without solid investigation and evaluation, even if they win in the end, it is luck and should not be rewarded."

Does Empress Cao have such insight?Impossible, even if she was born in a military family, it is impossible for her to have such a profound insight.

In fact, Zhao Xi didn't think so much when he made the decision not to reward or punish Niu Ben.

But after he finished the operation with one hand, if he thought about it carefully, the smell would be a bit strong...

Empress Cao's remarks... all come from outside the palace, and are the conclusions formed after many discussions between her natal family, the Gao family, the Shi family, and all the princes in the current dynasty.
