    Section 9 Establishing Military Ranks

    It took a while for the huge wave of voices to subside. Lin Fenghan calmly looked at everyone and continued to speak: "We have talked a lot about the reforms of the army so far, and there are some things I can't think of. Do you still have any doubts about these reforms?  Anything you want to add?"

    Everyone looked at each other in confusion. After a while, the light infantry centurion stood up and raised his hands and said, "My lord, Baron, do I have something unclear?"

    "Please tell me!" Lin Fenghan looked at Qituo Dun in the middle row and stretched out his hand to indicate.

    Qi Toton frowned and asked seriously: "Lord Baron, what is a brigadier general? Are general and brigadier general positions or honorary titles for soldiers?"

    "Um?"

    Lin Fenghan explained seriously: "General is the commander of an army in the army and navy, and it is also an honorary title for a soldier. Brigadier is an honorary title. Among generals, there are also young generals, old generals, and senior generals. I call generals respectively.  It is divided into four levels: brigadier general, major general, lieutenant general, and general. Among these four levels, some special honorary generals can be distinguished by special titles, such as purple golden flower major general, one-star general, and two-star general.  , five-star general, etc. We can award this later based on the development of the situation."

    "oh!"

    Qi Toton nodded and continued to ask: "Since the word general can be a military rank that proves honor, or it can also be a position of real power, can the regiment commander be treated as a glorious military rank?"

    "No!"

    Lin Fenghan shook his head quickly and said: "Regiment leader is a representative term for military positions in military organizations. A regiment leader can govern 1,000 to 2,000 people. He absolutely cannot be used as an honorary rank in the army. The term "regiment leader" has never represented a soldier in ancient times, including now.  Honor, we cannot use it as an honorary military rank."

    "oh!"

    Qituoton raised his eyebrows and asked: "Since senior commanders have the honorary title of general, then we middle-level commanders and low-level commanders also need an honorary rank to represent the qualifications and honor of the soldiers themselves. Otherwise, many have practical talents.  It is very unreasonable for soldiers who have made many meritorious achievements to be unable to obtain actual authority, unable to gain respect from the army and the people, and receiving unfair treatment."

    Having said this, Qituoton puffed up his chest and looked at Lin Fenghan seriously and said: "Baron, here, I want to ask you to give us middle- and low-level officers a fair treatment."

    "ah!"

    "this?"

    Lin Fenghan looked at Ke Lande with a frown, Bono dong.

    Corland, who was sitting in the front row of the hall, nodded slowly and said to Lin Fenghan: "Lord Baron, I have traveled across the country of Dambreth before. I have reviewed myself in some places in the kingdom, including the noble city lord in the capital.  When we are in the army, we always review the troops in a wide field, and the commander of this unit is called general at the top level, and the commander at the next level is called lieutenant or colonel."

    "Yes! Yes." Bonodong also touched his eyes and nodded: "I have traveled all over the country by boat before, including nearby countries. In their language, the words "Colonel" and "Colonel" represent the deep  Senior Centurion, Commander of Thousands. This means "big", "higher position", "elder". This term is very popular in various countries. Generally, many people use it to refer to those who are not generals.  The great centurions, the captains of thousands, the officers who garrisoned the frontiers, and the towns.¡±

    "Colonel Captain?"

    "Colonel!"

    "Colonel! Lieutenant Colonel! Major!"

    "good!"

    Lin Fenghan clapped his hands happily and said: "This word is very good, and it is widely used. It can be recognized by more people when used as a military honor, and it sounds very smooth. Let's make sure of it! From now on, all Elantra  The commanders of the major armies have been conferred the rank of major one after another. The older ones, those who have made great achievements in battle, and the senior officers can continue to advance in rank even if their merit in battle cannot lead to the rank of general."

    "Some special arms, warriors who have made military exploits, and people who have made special contributions can still be awarded military ranks as rewards even if there are no redundant positions in the army. Each military rank will correspond to a level in the army. They are in the army, government,  The treatment in society will also be different from others.¡±

    "Very good!"

    "very good!"

    "I'm satisfied!"

    Ke Langde, Ma Youden and others laughed and nodded excitedly to each other.

    Qitoton frowned and continued firmly: "Lord Baron, although you have now set military ranks for regimental commanders and officers at the level of captains of thousands, we centurions and captains still have no military ranks. We really need an honorary name.  Come call us.¡±

    "yes!"

    ? ???Indeed!  "

    ¡­¡­

    Many centurions nodded.

    Lin Fenghan looked at everyone and said: "Senior commanders, generals, and school officers, I have established it. When facing everyone, I naturally cannot treat each other favorably or favorably. Now we still have wing captains. Centurions do not have corresponding military ranks. Everyone  Let¡¯s all discuss what to use.¡±

    As soon as Lin Fenghan finished speaking, Longbow Centurion Wagel raised his hand and said quickly: "Baron, you just said the word captain, and I used to be a sailor in the inner sea of ??Kingdom Dancing Bay.  I have heard in nearby armies that the term captain generally refers to the flag bearer who holds the military flag, the warrior who represents the glory of the centurion. It can also represent the centurion of an army, the bravest person and leader of a centurion. Use  To call those brave and fearless military officers who represent the centurions, I think the words captain, lieutenant, and second lieutenant can be used to represent our captains and centurions, and to describe their bravery and glory."

    "Lieutenant?"

    "Yeah!" Lin Fenghan, Ke Lande, and Bonodong looked at each other and nodded, agreeing: "The word "lieutenant" is a good one, since it has recognition from the people and the army. Let's do it! Our Yilan army has established the rank of lieutenant.  Military ranks are divided into captain, lieutenant, and second lieutenant. Regiment captains are generally awarded the rank of captain, and those with seniority and meritorious service can be awarded the rank of major. Centurions are generally awarded the rank of lieutenant, and squadron leaders are generally awarded the rank of second lieutenant. In this way, the rank of general, colonel  The rank and the rank of lieutenant respectively correspond to the military ranks of the upper, middle and lower levels of commanders."

    Lin Fenghan smiled at everyone with satisfaction and continued: "The officer ranks have been determined. Do you have any other opinions to make?"

    "Baron!"

    "I have an opinion!"

    In the back corner of the hall, two centurions with similar faces and young bodies stood up. The stronger young man with a slightly more sophisticated appearance said: "Lord Baron, my name is Stern, and this is my brother Steer.  The two of us were originally farmers near the main castle of Elant. Later, we experienced many battles with the baron, and were promoted step by step from a temporary militia, pikemen, swordsmen, squad leader, squadron leader, and centurion to today's  Light Infantry Centurion.¡±

    ¡°My brother and I went through many battles, killed dozens of enemies, and finally became centurions, the grassroots officers of the Elantra army, but the two of us never forgot the fact that we were farmers before.¡±

    Steer, a sturdy young man who was slightly younger than Zhang Xiang and slightly taller than Stern, said nervously: "The Baron has already listed the honorary titles of high-level commanders, middle-level commanders, and lower-level commanders, but like the junior commanders at the grassroots level,  The captain, the squad leader, the brave soldiers, and the veterans who have made great achievements in war have been forgotten, and I think this is inappropriate."

    "Yes! I think the Baron should consider the soldiers at the grassroots level and set up an honorary title for them. This will not only allow senior officers to distinguish the excellence of the soldiers, but also stimulate the morale and enthusiasm of the soldiers.  ." Stern nodded seriously.

    "oh!"

    "Um!"

    Kelande, Bonodong, Rana, Davout, Ramsay, Kelande and others all nodded in agreement.

    Lin Fenghan touched his eyes, frowned in embarrassment, and whispered: "What you two said is indeed very reasonable. I really need to think about the soldiers. Everyone said that we should be the team leader at the grassroots level.  Flag bearer, what kind of military rank would be best for the warrior veterans?¡±

    "this!"

    "let me see!"

    "What should I call it?"

    ¡­¡­

    Everyone lowered their heads in confusion, discussing and thinking in low voices.

    At this moment, in the center of the last row, the light infantry centurion, Pamisi, who was of medium stature and thin, stood up and said: "Baron, we generally call the grassroots militia, and the soldiers are called soldiers. This word is very outstanding.  , let¡¯s just use the name ¡°Shi¡± as a military rank honor!¡±

    "Um!"

    Next to him, another thin and tall light infantry centurion, Lamour, stood up and said: "The word soldier is indeed extraordinary. We can grant the squad leader the rank of sergeant, flag bearer, and team leader.  Veterans are awarded the rank of sergeant or corporal, and new soldiers are called recruits! We will grant them the rank of non-commissioned officer after they have made achievements."

    "Corporal! How wonderful!"

    In the middle row, a burly man in his late thirties with a beard stood up. Mississa, a senior centurion of the light infantry, looked at the people around him and said, "Lord Baron, the title of sergeant is indeed a good one. Let's call it  This most basic military honorary title is called sergeant!"

      "Sergeant! Sergeant! Very good!"

    Lin Fenghan nodded happily, stretched out his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and said excitedly: "In this way, the four titles of general, colonel, lieutenant, and non-commissioned officer firmly include the honorary ranks of the entire army, which is really good.  , let¡¯s call it that!¡±

    "The Baron is wise!"

    "Very good"

    "My men will definitely be satisfied now."

    "Me too!"
