C3161 Obtain bonus (2/2)

Obtaining a bonus was a type of motivational policy unique to Chinese troops!

Since ancient times, war had always had spoils of war, and spoils of war were always used as a benefit for soldiers. This was an unwritten rule; since ancient times, generals never forbade soldiers to collect spoils of war to earn a small fortune.

This was a very important aspect of maintaining morale. If you worked hard to prevent people from earning some money, who would work hard next time?

However, the collection of spoils of war greatly affected the battle. When the soldiers had too much selfishness, looting and other actions would occur, and they would even interfere with the battle plans.

Imagine, the superior had ordered them to arrive at the next battlefield in twenty minutes, yet the soldiers had secretly collected the spoils of war.

If the military discipline was any weaker, this troop would be disgraced as soon as the act of massacring civilians and robbing people's wealth appeared!

In order to prevent this situation from happening, Xiao Letian set up a system to obtain rewards. On the battlefield, everything that was obtained would go to the credit of the soldiers themselves.

After each battle, a post-war meeting is held with the platoon as the base unit. The meeting should summarize the experience and lessons of the war, study the new tactics, and count the achievements of the war... The other most important was the statistical capture.

Each unit would negotiate with each other to distribute the spoils of war on the battlefield. After calculating, 40% of the total value would be handed over, while the other 6 would be given to the soldiers. This was the reward system for the spoils of war.

All the goods and materials on the battlefield would eventually be valued and accounted for in cash. The accounts would be kept until after the end of the war.

Sixty percent was given to the soldiers. This percentage was not low at all. It was evident how much the Chief had loved the soldiers.

However, there was one thing wrong with this system, and that was that the bonuses could only be distributed after the end of the war. This was because the spoils of war would be counted as cash in the end, which was also a very complicated process.

Soldiers were a group that had a hard time saving money since ancient times. They fought for their lives, but when they were on vacation, they didn't waste their money. Drinking and playing with money was a common practice.

What if the army didn't pay enough? Some smart soldiers and officers started to contact the merchants and secretly started to pay the rewards in advance for the soldiers' work.

Your money is still in the account. Do you want to spend it in advance? Give us a fee and we can take it out for you. In other words, I'll give it to you in advance.

How about a hundred and thirty? Since you have recorded 100 Dragon Mark Silver Yang in your contribution book, I'll give you 70 then. In the future, this amount of money has nothing to do with you.

This was an underground black market among the soldiers. In order to pick up girls, Wang Chen had already paid all his rewards in advance.

”I say, are you so reckless in this war? How many injuries have you sustained? You just want to calculate a little more for your military exploits! ”

”My brother, you want a woman to lose your life!”

Xiao Letian frowned his eyebrows, ”Two collective first rank merits, and one individual second rank merit. You must have remembered to pay a lot of rewards, right? How much water did you get someone to draw? ”

Wang Chen's face turned green with fear. I... I will definitely not dare to do so again. I am really in urgent need of money to spend! ”

”Take off your clothes!” Xiao Letian growled, frightening him so much that he trembled.
