论军阀政治时期的“兵”

Exploring the "soldiers" of the warlord politics

军阀政治时期中央政府权威丧失,各派军阀割据混战,使得社会动荡不安。社会经济的破坏产生了许多破产农民、游民等,在贫困不堪的情况下,当兵成了民众一个比较不错的职业选择。军阀们也为了争权夺利,争相扩军,招募了大量破产农民、游民、土匪和战后溃军、败军加入军队。这种征募方式和士兵来源造成了士兵素质低下、纪律松弛、战斗力弱、职业化、兵匪相通等现象,给社会、经济以及人们生活的安定造成极大的破坏。

During the political period of the warlord,the authority of the central government was lost,and the warlords of various factions were separated from each other,making the society turbulent.The destruction of the social economy has produced many bankrupt farmers,nomads,etc.In the case of poverty,the soldiers have become a relatively good career choice for the people.In order to compete for power and gain profits,the warlords also rushed to expand the army,recruiting a large number of bankrupt peasants,nomads,bandits,and post-war forces,and defeated the army to join the army.This type of recruitment and the source of the soldiers have resulted in low quality of the military,slack discipline,weak combat,professionalism,and military-related phenomena,which have caused great damage to the stability of society,the economy,and people's lives.
