Chapter 156 News revealed
Luo Xianbin changed into a new winter suit for a new sea wolf water army officer, wearing a silver pentagon on his left chest and a silver medal with a majestic embossed wolf head in the middle, sitting next to the wine table.
Except for Ma Ru and his first mate on the Feiyun, the rest of the people present are some colleagues who usually have a good relationship with him.
There are not only brothers who came out of the Little Yellow Island with him at the beginning, but also some people they met later who integrated into the sea wolf.
These people are basically officers at present, and ordinary sailors are generally not qualified to sit at a wine table with them.
Although Yu Xiaotian has not yet clarified the concept of the army and the rank of officers, since the establishment of the sea wolf, he has begun to subtly build his subordinates according to the regular army.
Yu Xiaotian doesn't like to shout that everyone is equal, because in his eyes, this sentence is simply bullshit and is used to deceive people. There is no social system to do this. As long as there are people, there can be no absolute equality. Society itself and even in the animal world, there are hierarchical areas. Other.
In this era, as a feudal society, people's hierarchy is stronger than that of later generations. This is the reality of this society, not to mention that as a similar military organization, if it is not big or small, the result can only be chaos, so he insists that strict in the sea wolf The concept of military management and hierarchy is very necessary. Everyone should know where they are in this group, and the following crimes are never allowed.
So he never mentions the concept of equality among the sea wolves. He is more willing to let everyone under his people know his status and not commit escalypants. If someone is dissatisfied with his current situation, he can do it! Seawolves have enough ways and opportunities to show their skills and strive for opportunities to climb up for themselves. As long as you have the ability and are willing to work hard, you always have the opportunity to get ahead and climb from an ordinary soldier to the leader.
And Yu Xiaotian appreciates the traditions of some foreign navies in later generations. Officers are officers, soldiers are soldiers, soldiers must respect officers, this class must be clear, and everyone must understand this.
So when Yu Xiaotian took Nanri Island, he gradually began to subtly promote his concept among the masses.
First of all, in terms of clothing, in the past, the clothes of the sea wolf department were basically indigo, and it was basically impossible to distinguish between the identity of the leader and the ordinary sailor.
So after the conditions allowed, he began to personally correct this aspect. In order to save money, he did not change the clothes of ordinary soldiers for the time being, but still used the previous indigo suits, while the clothes of the leaders, in fact, the officer uniforms, were redesigned.
First of all, the materials of the new officer's uniform are much more exquisite. He uses more straightforward fabrics. In terms of style, he does not dare to be too innovative. He directly adopts the doctrine and uses the military uniforms of later generations, so as not to be too shocking and vulgar, which makes people feel that they are a group of aliens!
Therefore, on the basis of the officer's uniform, the more common folk style of the Ming Dynasty is still adopted, but the shoulders are thickened, making the shoulders of the officer's uniform more straight and look closer, and the sleeves are sewn with white, red and yellow according to the level of each leader. Different colors of cloth strips are used to distinguish their levels.
In addition, the belts equipped with officers' uniforms are wider than the belts of ordinary soldiers. The buckles are made of flat pure copper belt buckles, and ordinary soldiers are ringed copper belt buckles. Through these details, you can see their different status among sea wolves at a glance.
When the leaders got this new officer uniform, they could be said to be very happy and immediately changed into the new officer uniform. This is not pure display, but after all, it represents the difference in their identities and makes them more honorable.
And some time ago, Yu Xiaotian reset the etiquette of the new army. In the past, his subordinates used to kneel down when they saw Shangfeng, but Yu Xiaotian always felt that such etiquette was a little cumbersome, so he tried to promote the military etiquette of later generations. He felt that it was more powerful and beautiful.
But his idea has been agreed by his subordinates*. Many people don't like such military rites and feel that such military rites are a little big or small, and they are suspected of offending the peak.
Yu Xiaotian asked his own soldiers to try such military salute for a period of time, and personally taught his own soldiers to use such military salutes for him.
After looking at it for a period of time, the people below gradually adapted to this new military ceremony and felt that it was quite solemn and respectful, which reduced their resistance.
So the result of the final compromise between the two sides is that the upper and lower levels usually meet among the sea wolves and use the etiquette of kneeling on one knee, but the war is changed to a hand ceremony, which can make wartime etiquette easier.
In addition to the changes in clothing and military etiquette, Yu Xiaotian also made new regulations for meals after arriving at Nanri Island.
First of all, when the masses do not go to work on the ship, they spend most of their time training or living in the camp on the shore. In the past, when the conditions were not good, they were all stewed in a pot, but now that the conditions have improved, the sea wolves also have money, and the food supply has gradually become richer.
So Yu Xiaotian ordered the establishment of a small fire in the camp on land, that is, the actual officer's restaurant. The food supply is obviously different from the large pot of rice for ordinary soldiers, which is finer than the large pot rice of ordinary soldiers. Dinner can be given a glass of wine as a special treatment that only officers can enjoy.
Originally, Yu Xiaotian was worried about whether the subordinates would be dissatisfied, but when it was actually implemented, he found that his worries were superfluous. In this era, people had long been used to the difference in levels. Officials ate better. In the eyes of everyone, it was a matter of course and wanted to eat. Well, the food has face. I want to eat it on a small fire. Yes, you just need to climb up. If you don't have the ability to climb up, then you have nothing to complain about eating a big pot.
Therefore, after various measures have been taken, a good atmosphere has been formed inside the sea wolf. There is a clear hierarchy between the top and the bottom, and their respective duties are strict. In general, ordinary sailors rarely participate in officers' dinners. Similarly, officers rarely participate in small gatherings between ordinary sailors under special circumstances.
Now Luo Xianbin came back and got a heavy reward. He also got the silver medal of loyalty and courage awarded to them by Xiaotian's personal order. Naturally, it is inevitable to invite some fox and dog friends to get together on the island.
And their party will certainly not be in the officer canteen, so Luo Xianbin invited a group of friends to a restaurant in the business warehouse area, set up a banquet, and started drinking here.
Looking at the silver medal of loyalty and bravery worn on Luo Xianbin's chest, the silver medal on Ma Ru's chest, and the bronze medal on the chest of the first mate Feng Lao Ba, these guys who were invited were dying of envy. Now that the medal regulations have been officially issued, and almost everyone knows this thing. Benefits.
And according to the provisions of the Medal Regulations, when they saw Luo Xianbin and Ma Ru on the street, although they were of similar levels, they could no longer fall down like before. They had to bow to them with fists.
So these people are greedy to death, thinking about when they can wear such a medal and drag it on the island.
"Come on, I'll have another drink to Brother Luo and Brother Ma. After drinking this cup, you will also tell us about going out this time! Let the brothers also learn!" A young leader said to Luo Xianbin and Ma Ru.
This guy is not someone else. It was Feng De who fought with Luo Xianbin for the shadowless woman. After the two were vigorously cleaned up by Yu Xiao Angel, they did not fight or make a deal. The relationship was quite good.
In the past two years, Feng De has also been doing well. Although he is not as good as Luo Xianbin, at least he is also the captain of a bird ship and stepped into the leader sequence. This time Luo Xianbin came back for a banquet, he naturally had to call this guy.
Luo Xianbin didn't refuse. He picked up the glass and drank it all. After putting down the glass, he rolled his eyes and smiled and said, "What's the point is that this flying fast ship made by our big house is so cool to use! Whoever takes these three boats out may not be worse than us!
Our flying-size fastship can be called a strong gunboat. Chu Cai's old ship is simply scum in front of our flying-size fastchuan! Ma Ru, don't you think so?
Ma Ru's face is red. He is not very good at drinking, but there is no problem so far. He nodded and said, "Brother Luo is right. The flying-size Clipper is indeed extraordinary, fast, flexible in steering, and the hull is also very stable. There are many cannons on the ship. We often bombard Chu Cai old first. After the men on the ship were confused, they put it on. At that time, Mr. Chu Cai's men had been scared into soft-footed crabs! You can clean up as you want!"
After listening to their words, several of their friends were envious again. Feng De touched a pinch of beard on his chin and said regretfully, "The Flying Clippers are so powerful! What a pity! I didn't even touch the flying name, so I can only watch you people show off on the sea with the flying name Clippers! Come on, let me see if this medal of loyalty and courage is made of pure silver!"
With that, he dishonestly reached out to Luo Xianbin's chest to touch the silver medal of loyalty and courage.
Luo Xianbin immediately knocked a chopstick on the back of his hand, hit his hand aside, covered his chest with the medal of loyalty and courage and shouted, "Of course it's sterling silver! Is it possible that it can still be iron? This is the Silver Medal of Loyalty and Courage! Don't stretch out your hand. If you want, take one yourself!"
Feng De's face collapsed and muttered, "What are you dragging!" We had a good fate there. We were actually selected to fly and went out for a good time. We guys have a hard life and brought some broken boats. We can only cruise on the north and south sides. Even if we do some work, we are all small fights. We are so lucky there!"
When he said this, there was a sour feeling in Feng De's tone, which made several guys next to him even nod, each with a look of envy. They rushed up and began to drink for Luo Xianbin and Ma Ru.
During the banquet, these guys had to inquire about what they did to do this time, and after Luo Xianbin was flooded, he talked more with Ma Ru. Anyway, Yu Xiaotian did not prohibit them from talking about this trip to the south, so they simply said something about what they did to the south this time. The matter was told to these brothers.
After listening to Luo Xianbin and Ma Ru talking about what they had done when they went south this time, these friends were as excited as if they had been beaten chicken blood.
Feng De patted the table excitedly and shouted, "Have a good time! What a mother's pleasure! You are really good. You only have three boats, and it's so happy that you have killed so many boats!"
Another person also patted the table and laughed, "Awesome! I'm convinced! No wonder the big master asked you to go, and the substitution really doesn't dare to do such a big job!
It's so dangerous! You said that Mr. Chu Cai ambushed so many boats on Kinmen Island, but he didn't stop you. I guess Mr. Chu Cai had to be angry this time!
It's a pity that we missed such a good opportunity. If I had known that even if we didn't be a captain, even if we were just a gunner, I would be willing to follow this trip! It's so good!"
Speaking of this, Luo Xianbin's face darkened and shook his head, "Speaking of this, I feel uncomfortable. In fact, we shouldn't have met on Kinmen Island this time!" It was all because of my greed for a while. There was not much ammunition on the ship, but I also wanted to come back after fishing again, but I bumped into the ambush set by Chu Cai's old man!
If it hadn't been for my greed for merit, the Flying Wolf would not have been folded anywhere! More than 30 good brothers, only ten have returned! Up to now, Brother Lin is still lying in the hospital. I went to see him last night. Brother Lin was seriously injured. The medical officer said that he was probably very dangerous this time. If he can't survive, how can I face to see Lin's sister-in-law and his son!"
Ma Ru saw that Luo Xianbin was still blaming himself. She reached out and patted Luo Xianbin's arm and advised him, "Luo Guantai, when we went out this time, we all knew the risk of this errand. When we went, we didn't think about retreating all over!
Man said it was you. When Brother Lin and I saw the two boats that day, we also wanted to get another hand! I didn't expect it to be a trap!
Brother Lin and the brothers on the Flying Wolf are indeed good. Although many of them have not come back, no one will complain about you! The team will no longer blame themselves!"
Seeing Luo Xianbin blaming himself for the Flying Wolf, the excitement of others also dissipated. Although they had just quarreled and regretted not being able to participate in this job, when they think about it, they also knew the danger of Luo Xianbin and his party going out to do things this time.
The three ships have been out for two months, and they hardly get stable supplies. Most of them have to rely on their own supplies to do things. They even have to be careful to replenish fresh water and food. Not everyone can survive these two months. In addition, they are ambushed on Kinmen Island. The danger is not easy to think about. Trembling, they were a little careless, and almost the whole army was destroyed.
Now they have tried their best to break only one ship, the Flying Wolf, and it is not easy for two boats to break out. It can be said that it is lucky for Luo Xianbin and his party to come back this time. It is not too much to say that they died in their lives.
Now that Yu has awarded them the Medal of Loyalty and Courage, which can be said to be worthy of their reputation. No one can say that they are unconvinced. Although their ships are good at gunfire, none of them can guarantee that they can do better than Luo Xianbin and others.
After drinking, everyone saw that Luo Xianbin was worried about Lin Shouche, so they discussed it and dispersed the banquet. The group got up and went straight to the hospital, ready to see Lin Shouche's situation again.
And when they checked out, the second look of a restaurant flashed a few times, looked at their departure backs, turned around and gave the shopkeeper a holiday, changed his clothes and sneaked out of the restaurant. After walking around the business warehouse area, he saw that no one paid attention to him, so he flashed into a less eye-catching shop. Among them.
After entering the shop, the second child said a few incisions to a clerk on the shop, and was brought into the back of the shop. After a while, the second child left the shop again, walked around the other shops, and returned to the restaurant.
(Tomorrow is National Day! There are no two more today. Let's go straight to the big chapter! Happy National Day to the brothers! Read and have fun! In addition, I especially thank the brothers of 1979, stdx and Ying Zhiwu for their unremitting rewards! I also have a fat National Day! How many yuan! Haha! Thank you, brothers! Besides, don't forget to keep the monthly ticket for me tomorrow! Please!)
