Chapter 42 People's Army
"One, two, one! One, two, one!"
Step by step! Step by step!
Accompanied by rhythmic slogans, a company of 136, including Fang Nan and Hu Zhuang, formed three teams to train around this small open space.
As the deputy company commander, Hu Zhuang often trains with the soldiers, but as the company commander, Fang Nan participated in training less often.
If the company commander does not participate in the training, the soldiers and officers will not have any opinions. On the one hand, Fangnan is a strong man recognized by the soldiers and has the privilege of the strong. On the other hand, in this era, isn’t it normal for generals to not train with soldiers? After all, the generals who can train with soldiers are a minority.
Fang Nan is also trying to make time for participating in military training. As the team leader, as the team expands, Fang Nan is getting busier and busier, accepting information from reports from all aspects to process, and at the same time putting down various arrangements. The students have not yet grown to the point of being the only one, and only his wife Hu Xiaoya can help Fang Nan.
Recently, Fang Nan has another very important thing to be busy with, involving the future of coming out to raise the banner to rebel.
To raise the flag to rebel, at least one name is needed. Even bandits have names, such as Black Wind Village and Blood Wolf Village. After these bandits did several major events, their names were circulated in the surrounding area. When ordinary people heard the names of bandits, they would feel scared, and evil people would join in with the bad reputation of bandits.
The Iron Eagle Soldiers, Wei Wuzhang, Yellow Turban Army, Xuanjia Army and even the famous Qi family army in the Ming Dynasty, Fang Nan's team also needed a name, not a very profound name, but simple and easy to understand.
Fang Nan and Hu Xiaoya said more than ten names. After Fang Nan carefully selected them, only two were left, the Baijia Army and the People's Army.
The Hundred Schools (Steers) and the People all mean the same, referring to people all over the world. After careful consideration, Fang Nan chose the "People's Army". When talking to the outside world, the People's Army was the people's army, overthrowing the Ming Dynasty's landlord class was the responsibility of the People's Army, and protecting the people was the obligation of the People's Army.
After the People's Army officially raised its flag to rebel, the established regime can be temporarily called the People's Military Government. The matter of founding the country is still far away, so there is no need to think about it for the time being.
As the Supreme Commander of the People's Army, Fang Nan called himself "Grandmaster". The title of Grandmaster was often named as the military chief before the Ming Dynasty. During the Republic of China, he also managed civil affairs. As the Grandmaster, Fang Nan was not only the Supreme Commander of the People's Army, but also responsible for civil affairs.
When Fang Nan determined the titles of the People's Army, the People's Military Government, the Grand Commander-General, etc., he carefully divided the People's Army and the People's Military Government.
The People's Army implements a three-three system in organization, namely, twelve people, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one squad, one
On this basis, the People's Army must also add a military rank system. As long as some troops have fewer people, but may be more important than troops with more people, the level of military rank must be judged by the military rank.
When the People's Army raises the flag, there will be two armies, one is an elite firearm army of a regiment size, and the other is a cold weapon army with an undetermined number of people at least exceeding the firearm army as an auxiliary.
The ranks of the Firearms Army were arranged, ordinary soldiers were corporals, deputy squad leader was sergeant, squad leader (and group leader) was sergeant, deputy platoon leader was second lieutenant, platoon leader and deputy company commander were lieutenant, company commander and deputy battalion commander were captains, battalion commander and deputy regiment commander were major, and regiment commander was lieutenant colonel.
The rank arrangement of the Cold Weapon Army is one level to two levels lower than that of the Fireweapon Army. Ordinary soldiers on the Cold Weapon Crossbow are privateers, the squad leader and the deputy squad leader are corporals, the deputy platoon leader is sergeant, the platoon leader is sergeant, the deputy company commander is a second lieutenant, the company commander is he deputy battalion commander is lieutenant, the battalion commander and the deputy regiment commander are captains, and the regiment commander is a major.
After the major, there were lieutenant colonels, colonels, major generals, lieutenant generals, and generals, not counting as non-commissioned officers, with a total of nine ranks.
This is the general organization of the People's Army. In addition, Fang Nan intends to add two important political cadres, namely the instructor and the political commissar, to the People's Army. Instructor and the political commissar generally do not participate in military command and are mainly responsible for the ideological work of the soldiers.
For example, the People's Army, the instructors and political commissars need to let the soldiers know that they are fighting for the poor people all over the world, overthrow the Ming Dynasty landlord class, and prevent the poor people all over the world from being oppressed and live a good life.
The ideological construction of the army is very important. Most soldiers and officers of the Ming Dynasty had an idea of getting promoted and getting rich. Once one-third of the army was killed or injured, it was easy for the army to be defeated. They joined the army to get promoted and get rich, not to seek death.
A small number of the Ming Dynasty's army did not seek to get rich or to make money. For example, the army that resisted the invasion of coastal Japanese pirates and the borders to resist the invasion of nomadic tribes. Many people joined the army to defend their homeland.
Such an army has a stronger will, and even if more than one-third of the casualties are killed or injured, they will not be easily defeated.
The People's Army must have a stronger will. The instructors and political commissars must make the soldiers fight hard for their own goals. This is a bit cruel, but it is normal to die in war. The only thing they can do is to make the war win and minimize the casualties on their own side.
The instructor of the company and battalion level is lower than that of the company commander and battalion commander, but he is the first deputy position in the company and battalion level, and his status is second only to the company commander or battalion commander and higher than the deputy company commander or battalion commander.
Regiment level, regiment level or above, special battalion level, political commissars are equipped with, and the military rank is arranged the same as instructors.
The People's Army was followed by the official rank arrangements of the People's Military Government. This place, Fangnan not only was arranged according to the national, deputy national, ministerial and deputy ministerial levels in the modern world, but continued to use ninth-rank official positions, corresponding to the ninth-rank rank of the People's Army.
However, the division of ninth rank official positions must be achieved by the founding of the People's Republic of China. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, only a slightly simple division of county magistrates, town magistrates, and village magistrates, and they are very different from the officials of the Ming Dynasty. For example, the magistrates and county magistrates of the Ming Dynasty were responsible for the county's civil affairs. The county magistrates of the People's Military Government would divide the affairs into various parts.
Like the magistrate of the Ming Dynasty, he was the highest civil affairs chief of a county and ranked seventh. If he was not high in terms of grade, he could completely describe the magistrate as a "small official of sesame and mung beans".
If we talk about power, although the power of the magistrate is nothing in the eyes of those prefects, prefects, and governors, at the county level, the county magistrate can be said to be like a local emperor. As the saying goes, "the magistrate who confiscates the family, the magistrate who destroys the family." Think about it, if a family can be destroyed, the power of the magistrate in the county can be said to be amazing.
