Chapter 1565 If you are afraid of death, you must fight bravely
"Haha, are the people below a little gloating?! Don't worry, it will be your turn soon."
Zhu Ping'an swept He looked down at the audience, smiled slightly and joked.
All the lower-level officers of the Zhejiang Army in the audience, especially the soldiers, couldn't help but laugh after Zhu Pingan pointed out their inner thoughts. They were indeed a little gloating. When the adults just said that they should even sit down, they were still very nervous. When I heard the result, I thought, well, good guys, officials started to sit together, especially the bigger the official, the more powerful they were. The lower-ranking officers, especially the corps commander and the soldiers were not connected at all, so they couldn't help but rejoice in the misfortune.
"The second content of the continuous sitting law is that subordinates vouch for the continuous sitting of superiors, including lower-level officers vouching for the continuous sitting of superior officers, and soldiers vouching for the continuous sitting of officers." Zhu Pingan said with a serious face.
When the junior officers and soldiers heard this, they couldn't help but smile bitterly. Sure enough, it was our turn.
“The lower-level officers jointly vouch for the higher-level officers, and the lower-level officers must also issue a guarantee letter for the higher-level officers. This applies to everyone from the corps commander to the battalion commander. The content of the guarantee letter is roughly the following: , lead the general of the camp, so-and-so, to go into battle. I promise not to make any mistakes or escape before the battle. If there is any mistake or escape, everyone will be willing to do so. "Death for a life". What does it mean? The lower-level officer is responsible for the life of the higher-level officer. If the lower-level officer abandons the higher-level officer and retreats and escapes, then the lower-level officer will be executed. If the higher-level officer is killed, then the officer next to the officer will be killed. Execute them all!"
Zhu Pingan said with a cold expression.
A layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on the back of the junior officer, and he looked at the superior officer as if he were looking at a precious protected animal. From now on, you must not only obey the general's orders, but also protect your superior officers on the battlefield, otherwise you and other junior officers may all be executed.
In response to this, the superior officers suddenly felt balanced. They looked at their subordinate officers proudly and said harshly to them: "In the future, when I rush forward on the battlefield, you all have to rush for me. , no one dares to resist, if I die, you will all be buried with me! Don’t even think about running away!”
Naturally, the subordinate officers nodded repeatedly. They dare not to rush. If they rush, they can still make meritorious service. If they don't, they will die!
Zhu Ping'an took the reaction of everyone in the audience into his eyes and continued seriously: "Soldiers also vouch for officers, and every soldier must write a letter of guarantee for the commander of this corps. The content of the letter of guarantee is roughly as follows: Today So-and-so, on the spot, is the real guarantee. I have taken the commander of this corps, so-and-so, to go into battle. I guarantee that I will not make any mistakes or escape during the battle. If I make any mistakes or escape, everyone will be willing to do so. Death for life. The meaning is the same as above. Soldiers are responsible for the life of their corps commander. If the corps commander dies due to incompetence in fighting or fleeing from battle, then all soldiers in the corps will be put to death!"
Now the pressure is on ordinary soldiers! Suddenly, dense cold sweat suddenly appeared on the soldier's back, and he looked at the corps commander as if he were looking at a precious animal. In the future, on the battlefield, you must fight bravely and protect your corps commander.
The life of the corps commander is not only his own, but also ours. Everyone has the responsibility to protect the corps commander
The corps commander also felt much more balanced in his heart, and he gave the harsh words that his superior had just said to the soldiers in his corps intact, "In the future, on the battlefield, I will Go forward, you all have to rush for me, no one dares not to rush forward, if I die, you will all be buried with me! No one can escape!"
"Come on, come on, we are rushing in front of you, please take it easy." The soldiers expressed their stance one after another.
"You, uncle, do you dare to fool me? I have to get in front of the chief!" The corps leader glared at them.
Hehehehe. The soldiers suddenly laughed.
Zhu Ping'an stood on the high platform and continued to announce: "The third content of the joint sitting method is the joint sitting guarantee between soldiers. Everyone must write a guarantee letter for other soldiers in the army. The content of the guarantee letter is roughly For: So-and-so now guarantees that Wu, So-and-so, and others are not deserters. Now that they have escaped, I guarantee that I will be punished. After the contract is signed, if there are deserters in the army outside of combat, the rest of the soldiers will be punished, half of them will be jailed, and half will have their food and wages deducted until the deserters are caught; if there are deserters during the battle, the deserters will be executed, and the rest will be beaten. A hundred punishments! No matter life or death!"
After hearing this, the Zhejiang soldiers in the audience looked at each other and reacted fiercely.
"Well, I have to keep an eye on you all, don't get me involved. Zhang Laosan, I think you are the most dangerous one. You were tired from training before, and you are too greedy for life. I will keep an eye on you day and night. It’s yours!”
“Go away, I won’t be a deserter. "
The soldiers of the Zhejiang Army immediately began to supervise each other, reminding each other, and telling others that they will keep an eye on you day and night. Don't even think about deserting. Don't even think about it, and you will give it to me during the war. Come on, don't bring me down, otherwise don't blame me for not remembering the old relationship.
"In addition to the above three items, the continuous sitting method also has the following contents: First, in every formation, one person takes the lead. If nine people are not saved, and they are killed in battle, all nine of them will be killed. If one person is killed in battle, he will be killed. A real thief, nine people are exempted from guilt ; If one is killed, two will be rewarded, and all nine will be rewarded as usual; secondly, if one of the first troops is surrounded, the other troops will not be saved; if one is surrounded, each of the sentries will not be rescued; one If the sentry is surrounded and the other sentry fails to save him, causing the enemy to fall, he will be subject to military law. The corps commander, chief commander, and sentinel commander should be beheaded; thirdly, if one person is killed in battle and there is no enemy head in the corps, each soldier will be deducted for one month, and a preferential allowance will be given to the family of the deceased. If the corps commander is killed in battle, one corps will be deducted, and the sentry commander is killed in battle. If the battalion commander is killed, a battalion will be deducted. The subordinates of the fallen officers will be exempted from prosecution if they have any gains. The pensions of the fallen soldiers and officers will be borne by the Zhejiang Army Public Treasury. "
Zhu Pingan announced the remaining contents of the company's law to everyone in one breath. .
"The chain of command is really complete. Superiors, subordinates, and peers are all connected. If one person escapes from battle, his comrades, superiors, and subordinates who may be sleeping in the same tent will all be implicated."
"This company's cruelty is a bit unhuman. I not only have to fight bravely, but I also have to supervise others and not let him escape. If he If we escape, we will also suffer unreasonable disasters."
"Didn't you say that the Japanese pirates are too arrogant now and can't wait any longer? Besides, you are not afraid of death, so what are we afraid of!"
The continuous sitting method has a deeper and more personal impact on the Zhejiang Army than the disciplinary performance assessment. All the Zhejiang Army feel a lot of pressure.
Although it is a bit inhumane, it is very intimidating and the effect is immediate because of this. Almost immediately after Zhu Ping'an announced the Houlian Lifa, the discipline and morale of the Zhejiang Army were fundamentally improved. Even after the promulgation of the Sitting Law, the officers and soldiers of the Zhejiang Army have reached a consensus: If you are not afraid of death, then you should fight bravely; if you are afraid of death, then you should fight bravely! Otherwise, you will die faster even if you sit still!
