After hearing Zhao Ziliang's words, all the officials and captains looked at each other in confusion, not knowing how to deal with it.
Some of them were even at a loss.
One of the officials stood up and raised his hands and said: "General, the military regulations and disciplines of our army when stationed at the station are different from those during the expedition.
When the army is stationed at the station, the military regulations and disciplines have been stipulated long ago, but during the expedition, we need to The promulgated military regulations and disciplines are promulgated by the leading generals on an ad hoc basis, sometimes in order to boost the morale of the army, destroy the enemy, or capture an area.
For a city, the leading general will even promise to the soldiers to massacre the city for three days after breaking it, or when there is a shortage of food and grass, allow the soldiers to disperse and eat on their own, which will inevitably cause some damage to the local people.
However, in order to defeat the enemy, these Losses are inevitable, so the general asked us how to deal with these soldiers, and we really couldn’t answer."
"Hmph."
Li Siye, the captain of the third battalion, snorted coldly.
He stood up and glared at the official who had just spoken.
He cupped his hands to Zhao Ziliang and said, "General, I think that since soldiers receive military pay, they cannot do anything harmful to the people.
Otherwise, what is the difference between them and bandits and robbers?
These people deserve to be executed."
Those soldiers who caused harm to the people must be from the cavalry battalion.
As the captain of the cavalry battalion, Wei Meng is their leader.
Something happened to his subordinates.
His boss's face is not good-looking, but he does not think that in this matter What a mistake those soldiers made.
He stood up and argued with his arguments: "General, my subordinates don't think they have much fault.
It was cold and hungry at the time.
They didn't look for food.
Could they have no choice but to starve to death and freeze to death?
All seven of them have meritorious deeds." soldiers, one of them killed six Tuqi Shi soldiers, and the least one also killed one What's wrong with such a meritorious man playing with a few women?
As for the old man, he was accidentally pushed to death while arguing with them.
The old man was weak and his death was an accident.
No one thought it was true.
If you want to kill him, please tell me, general, that you must not let the meritorious men feel cold."
"General, I disagree with what Captain Wei said."
Lei Wu, the captain of the second battalion, stood up and retorted loudly.
In response to this matter, after the conversation started, officials and military officers expressed their own opinions.
The lobby suddenly became like a vegetable market, noisy, and no one accepted the opinions and reasons of others.
This situation is what Zhao Ziliang has been encouraging for a while.
In his opinion, Shou Zhuo Mansion should allow different voices and different opinions, and he is just a mortal.
He also makes mistakes and has different opinions and voices.
It allows him to make fewer mistakes and allows him to always be vigilant and review his actions.
Some people think that these soldiers should not be held accountable.
After all, there were no regulations before the expedition that prohibited such things.
However, some people think that those soldiers were guilty and should be severely punished.
In short, the public is right and the mother-in-law is right.
Every official and general has his own opinions and reasons, and all of them speak clearly and logically.
To sum up, some officials and generals believed that the soldiers who made mistakes were meritorious, and even if they violated military discipline, their merits and demerits should be balanced or given a lighter sentence.
However, a small number of other officials believed that the merits and demerits could not be balanced, so the two sides had a heated argument.
Shou Cui Jianlin stood up and said: "General, everyone holds their own opinions, regardless of superiority or inferiority, and they all have their own reasons.
It is really difficult to distinguish superiority from inferiority.
Let the lower officials take a look and let the general decide this matter."
Everyone hurriedly said: "General, please make a decision."
Zhao Ziliang thought for a moment and said: "Let's put this matter aside for the time being.

I will make my own decision and pass on the order.
The entire army will assemble in the open space outside the West City Gate tomorrow morning.
At that time, I will give an explanation to everyone about this matter. , call the relevant officials of the city lord's palace and the suffering masters, and allow the common people to watch Zhou Shancun, have those seven soldiers been imprisoned?"
Inspector Zhou Shancun stood up and said: "Yes, the generals are all locked up in the detention room of Shouzhuo Mansion."
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "Okay, now let's talk about the third thing.
Zheng San, the captain of the supply camp and the deputy commander of Shouchufu, reported that although we won a great victory and captured a lot of weapons, armor, and bows, but Our officers and soldiers also suffered heavy losses in their weapons.
After the battle, When we came back, many soldiers were without weapons and bows.
According to this situation, we really can't afford to fight this battle.
The value of the trophies captured is not as good as our own losses.
The general is very puzzled as to why this is happening.
Can you tell this general?"
Li Siye, the captain of the third battalion and the captain of the Modao team, stood up and said: "General, I know this situation well.
Some soldiers' weapons were seriously damaged in the fight, so they were discarded.
Some soldiers' weapons were damaged in the fight with the enemy.
Lost, there are still some soldiers fighting with The enemy's weapons were knocked off during the fight, but they also robbed the enemy's weapons.
Who would bother to pick up their own weapons during the battle?
In short, many weapons were lost in various corners of the battlefield.
I want to find them.
It’s not easy to come back.”
Zhao Ziliang sighed after hearing this: "The number of weapons, bows, arrows and armor produced by the Imperial Arms Supervision is limited because the production capacity is limited, so it is not an unlimited supply.
It does not mean that some soldiers lack weapons and can be supplied immediately.
Supplementary, this has caused the army in many places to lack equipment when they do not cherish weapons, armor and bows and arrows.
Some garrisons have not been able to wait for supplementary equipment in the first half of the year, so we must change this habit and formulate corresponding policies.
The measures allow soldiers to properly keep and cherish their equipment.
These are the guys who kill the enemy and save their lives.
Without these things, after going to the battlefield, what will the soldiers use to kill the enemy and protect themselves?
The general thought for a long time , I thought of a way, which should be feasible.
The way is to engrave the name of the soldier on every weapon, armor, horse, and matching saddle, stirrup, bow and arrow, no matter who loses his own at any time.
If you own equipment, you will be punished.
Arrows are allowed consumables and are not among them.
After the battle, soldiers must remember to take back their equipment.
Regardless of whether it is damaged or broken, they must take it back and hand it over.
For damaged equipment, the treasury will issue new ones to the soldiers, but if it is your own, it is not allowed to exchange other people's old equipment for new ones.
If anyone takes back the fired arrows, regardless of whether they are good or bad, the Shouchufu will charge a penny for the equipment.
Recycled but cannot be used There are no good arrows fired in exchange for money.
This kind of speculative behavior will be severely punished once discovered.
How to punish soldiers who have lost their equipment?
It can range from three days of confinement and compensation, to seven days of confinement and compensation.
Money and lost equipment will be compensated as much as they are worth.
In order to prevent someone from selling equipment to black market merchants at high prices to make huge profits, once discovered, they will be killed without mercy.
This situation is absolutely unforgivable."
After Zhao Ziliang's method was implemented, no one in the army dared to lose equipment casually.
This also allowed Zhao Ziliang's army to have sufficient soldiers for a long time.
Even if the court did not allocate new equipment for a long time, his army would still have enough soldiers.
A uses.

This method was also adopted a few years later by Wang Zhongsi, the governor of Hedong and Shuofang.
After Zhao Ziliang finished speaking, he asked Zheng San: "Are there any blacksmiths and tailors in Shouchuo Mansion?"
Zheng San shook his head and said, "No."
"What to do if weapons, armor, and bows are damaged?"
Zheng San said: "General, my subordinates have inquired and found out that in the past they were all treated as useless waste, and some were sold directly to blacksmiths or other places for some money."
Zhao Ziliang shook his head and said: "It's such a waste.
If you sell those damaged weapons, armors and bows, they can continue to use them as long as they are repaired.
It would be too harmful for these murderous things to be circulated among the people.
So, you go back to the city."
Find some blacksmiths and tailors, give them the damaged equipment to repair, pay them wages, store the repaired equipment in the treasury, and then distribute it to the soldiers for use."
Zheng San promised: "Promise":
