After a week of preparation, a top-down reform within the military government began.
In the early morning, standing under the statue of Mother Deathclaw, Jiang Chen read out the reform bill that had been brewing for half a year to all the survivors in the Fishbone Base.
The first is the administrative system.
The reform bill clarified that the Fishbone Base will exist as a military institution, establish a unified military government to govern all territories, and divide the territory into two major administrative regions.
It is an economic zone, open to any survivor, and implements a pseudo-democratic system in which a military government governs the army and an "elected" parliament governs the country. Parliament has the power to make laws, but the military government has the power to veto resolutions based on national interests. At the same time, the military government will send executive officers to oversee all aspects of the economic zone. Just like what's going on in Sixth Street right now.
One is the military zone, which is closed to non-military personnel, implements comprehensive militarized management, and implements a citizen hierarchy from slaves to knights. Everyone swears allegiance to the Supreme Leader and absolute obedience to his leadership. Except for slaves, all citizens and knights have holidays of varying lengths at their disposal. During this time, they can choose to go to the economic zone to enjoy a free life. But inside a military base, there is no such thing as freedom, only command and obedience. Those included in the military zone include Fishbone Base, Shenxiang Town Colony, and Camp No. 27.
This model is equivalent to dividing the sword and the plowshare into two parts, but the communication between the two is inseparable. The tax revenue and military resources of the economic zone support the armed forces of the military zone. At the same time, the factories in the military zone also export excess production capacity to the market of the economic zone as an independent company. In this way, both the economic capacity of the Sixth District and the combat effectiveness of the military district are preserved.
In addition, in order to maintain the stable operation of this model, when Jiang Chen announced this decision, he also introduced a welfare policy for the survivors of the military zone, that is, the salary system. Except for the slave class, all other classes of people will receive a basic salary every month. Citizens are 10-20 sub-crystals, and knights are 50. Depending on the specific position, this value will fluctuate upward.
In the past, the Fish Bone Base only provided food without paying wages. But as the economy of the Sixth Street District next door gradually developed, there was no guarantee that continuing the previous practice would not give the soldiers at the bottom some ideas, so Jiang Chen took this opportunity to issue this decision. Although this means that the military government will increase its monthly expenditure by tens of thousands of crystals, it is compared to the food business of the Fish Bone Base and the tax revenue of the Sixth Block. Ya Jing Jiang Chen can still afford this.
As long as someone is loyal to him, Jiang Chen doesn't mind letting him live a good life.
The next step is the arrangements made by the leadership.
The supreme leader of the military government is the marshal, who is served by Jiang Chen. The highest administrative unit is the Marshal's Mansion, which is established by Jiang Chen's personal nomination. The main responsibility of the Marshal's Office is to supervise the operations of other departments and make adjustments to the work of the entire military government. Appoint and remove governors of various administrative regions.
The original complicated departments were broken up and reorganized, and the re-established Administration Department managed all administrative, construction and other matters in the base, while the Logistics Department managed production, all material deployment and other matters in the base. The former Minister of Construction Lu Huasheng serves as the Minister of Administration, and the Minister of Logistics Department still serves as Wang Qing. The ministers of the two departments are directly responsible to the Supreme Leader Marshal.
Then there is the reform of the command system.
In order to avoid command confusion, Jiang Chen established three major legions and a relatively independent stalker corps to command the soldiers in the base.
The leader of the first corps is Cheng Weiguo, the leader of the second corps is Wang Zhaowu, and the leader of the third corps is Zhao Gang. The establishment is tentatively set at 1,000 people, mainly composed of infantry and armored units.
The leader of the Stalker Corps is Ma Zhongcheng. The establishment is tentatively set at 200 people, and the main composition of the arms is scouts and snipers. Mainly responsible for performing special missions and supporting the other three legions in wartime operations. The members of this corps are all former lone travelers or survivors of Qingpu. Their individual combat effectiveness and survivability are relatively stronger than ordinary soldiers. Their combat value is better when acting alone, so they were pulled out to form a separate corps.
As for heavy equipment such as hunting tigers and power armor, they were allocated to the three legions as needed. That YZ-51 was assigned to the Stalker Corps to improve its mobility.
Among the 323 knights who held military positions, they were assigned to various corps as junior officers. They are all implanted with honor chips, and their loyalty is unquestionable.
As for the details of legion building. Han Junhua also meticulously perfected it for him and refined a top-down command system. Jiang Chen also entrusted her with tasks without hesitation, and she did live up to his expectations and completed these tasks skillfully.
This way. Soldiers will no longer encounter the embarrassing situation of not knowing who to listen to at critical moments.
On the other hand, the reform bill has further clarified the name of this military government.
This was already considered the founding of the country, so Jiang Chen was naturally embarrassed to casually use the name of a food can as the name of the military government. So, after referring to the opinions of other senior officials of the base and Han Junhua, he chose "New Asian Cooperation Organization" as the name of the military government. Abbreviation>
Just from this name, you can get a glimpse of Jiang Chen's ambition.
The above is the entire content of the reform.
In the era of civilization, such an extremely aggressive political system was obviously impossible to exist, but in this wasteland where there are no constraints such as human rights and morality, there is no problem.
People long for a strong voice to set a rule that everyone will abide by in this wasteland. Even if it is flawed, at least it brings the stability that everyone dreams of.
But it is undeniable that most survivors are unfettered. They may desire stability, but they are not necessarily willing to sacrifice their freedom for it.
As for how to balance the balance between freedom and order in the hearts of survivors, we can only leave it to time.
... ...
"Now that the command system is complete, I can start preparing to recruit troops." Standing in front of Jiang Chen's office, Chu Nan said.
In view of the great significance of this reform, as the acting marshal of the Sixth District, he naturally had to come back. Of course, he is now the executive officer of the Sixth District, but other than changing his job title, his duties and responsibilities have not changed much.
"How many people do you think we can recruit?" Jiang Chen asked.
"It depends on what price we can offer and how many people you need." Chu Nan said.
"It is planned to recruit 3,000 new recruits with a 5-year contract. All recruits will automatically obtain lower-class citizenship status after joining the army and enjoy a monthly salary of 10 Yajing. After a 6-month training period, recruits who pass the assessment will officially receive NAC As a soldier, he will be promoted to a superior citizen at the same time, and his salary will be increased to 20 Yajing per month. Try to complete it before mid-June, can it be done?" Standing beside Jiang Chen, Han Junhua said succinctly.
This is also the current salary level for regular soldiers in the three major legions. This salary may not attract capable people to join the army, but it is still very tempting for low-income earners. Especially after becoming a first-class citizen, you will be able to enjoy unlimited rations. Even middle-income people will inevitably not be tempted.
After thinking about it in his mind, Chu Nan nodded.
"Can."
"There are also loners, mercenaries or hunters with outstanding abilities. If they are willing to join the hunter corps, NAC will offer them a monthly salary of no less than 50 sub-crystals, and the contract is also for 7 years. Do you have any questions? ?”
Chu Nan shook his head. "There's no more recruiting, and there's the defense of the Sixth District."
"The defense of the Sixth District is undertaken by the Third Army."
"Where are the other two corps?" Chu Nan looked at Han Junhua.
"The First Legion is stationed in Shenxiang Town and is responsible for border defense. Cheng Weiguo is responsible for training new soldiers."
Chu Nan nodded secretly. Cheng Weiguo used to be in charge of recruit training, so it was indeed a good choice for him to be in charge.
"The Second Army is responsible for the defense of Camp 27 and Fish Bone Base. The Stalker Corps is on standby at Fish Bone Base."
"In addition, I have another proposal." As he said that, Han Junhua looked at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen nodded. She had discussed this proposal with him the day before yesterday, so it would be okay to bring it out now.
After obtaining Jiang Chen's permission, Han Junhua continued.
"There are currently a large number of uncontrolled militias in the Sixth District, and I think they should be restrained."
"This is impossible." Chu Nan said with a bitter smile, "Mercenaries, hunters, and scavengers, these three things have become an integral part of the economy of the Sixth District. And putting this aside, we don't have it at all. Incorporate their capabilities.”
"It's not recruitment." Han Junhua crossed his arms and said flatly, "It's just management. For example, setting up a mercenary union in the name of the military government, registering the information of all mercenaries, hunters and scavengers, and Credit rating and task completion records are counted. For these mercenaries, they will be able to obtain commissions more conveniently and will not have to worry about defaulting on commission fees. For businessmen, they will also not have to worry about hiring helpers with dirty hands. For us, we’re going to have a sense of belonging to the entire Sixth District vigilante group.”
In this way, in order to maintain their credibility, I believe that those mercenaries with dirty hands and feet will also restrain themselves a lot. Those capitalists who rely on their capital status to deceive the disadvantaged scavengers will also be restrained by the existence of mercenary unions.
Even if we do not consider it from a safety perspective, from an economic perspective alone, this proposal has many benefits.
In addition, low commissions can be charged for entrustments when necessary. Jiang Chen leisurely added in his mind.
Chu Nan was silent for a long time after listening to Han Junhua's words.
After a moment, he looked at Jiang Chen and sighed congratulations.
"Looks like you've found a good advisor."
Jiang Chen smiled brightly.
"I also believe so."(.)
