Ten days later, on the camp training field, more than a thousand servants were neatly arranged in a square formation. Although some people still stood unsteadily from time to time and shook their bodies slightly, the entire team looked as neat as a knife and an ax!

It doesn't look big, but it already has the air of a strong army. Looking closely, after a long period of training, these servants are all strong and strong, standing like green pines, with high-spirited postures! The craftsmen not far away can be seen

Everyone was stunned! Even Uncle Qi, who was standing aside and watching the excitement, sighed in his heart: Even Qi Shuai’s team is nothing more than this!

Liu Pei gathered all his servants this time, including the servants who were patrolling the salt road and setting up checkpoints outside. They were also summoned back. The main reason was to establish his own internal hierarchy. Now Liu Pei has a lot of servants, and no longer

It is as easy to command as one or two hundred people in the past. If you want to be able to give orders again, you must establish a smooth command channel.

Liu Pei stood on the wooden platform and looked at the servants in front of him with satisfaction. He felt that his efforts were not in vain. Liu Pei took the list handed over by his entourage and began to read it loudly. Everyone whose name was read out went directly.

To the front line. They will be the first batch of small flags under Liu Pei.

According to the military system of the Ming Dynasty, a small banner can manage ten people under its command, and each general banner can manage five small banners. There are only two general banners under a hundred households. In the local guard station, under a thousand household station

There were ten hundred households. A small flag in the Ming Dynasty was roughly equivalent to a squad leader in the current army.

By the time Liu Pei finished reading out everyone's names, there were already many servants standing in front of him. These people had already gotten wind of the news in advance, so they all had their faces high and their heads held high! Liu Pei said loudly: "From today on, you are the

The first batch of flags in our servant team! And there are two good news to tell you! The first good news is that from today on, your monthly salary will be increased by half!" There was a slight buzz among the servants.

Sounds. They are probably filled with emotions such as envy, jealousy, and hatred!

Liu Pei continued: "The second thing is that we don't have a general banner or a hundred households yet! In the future, the selection of these official positions will have to be prioritized from the small banners!"

Now the discussion among the servants became even louder! And

The freshly baked banners standing in front of them all looked at each other in surprise. He was already one step ahead. If he could take another step forward and become the general banner, or even the position of a hundred households, depending on the generosity of the family owner, then

The monthly salary is probably outrageous! I can’t even imagine what it would be like!

But the blow was about to come! After seeing everyone's excited expressions, Liu Hui smiled and broke the bad news, saying: "There is another bad news for everyone. This group of small flag officers is special, so they are lucky!

If you want to serve as Xiaoqi in the future, you must know 500 words!"

The servants in the field let out a cry regardless of discipline! In the eyes of these servants, literacy is much scarier than physical exertion and fighting in battle! After all, they are all military households and came from farmers. When they were young, their families did not have enough money to study.

Now that I am older, I no longer have any interest in studying, but I didn’t expect that the head of the family actually requires the officers to be literate! Isn’t it good for soldiers to dare to risk their lives? Can literacy kill the enemy?

Liu Pei ignored everyone's wails and continued: "There is even more unfortunate news! In the future, if you are promoted to a hundred-household official, you must be literate in more than a thousand words! The same is true if you want a higher position!"

The wailing was louder now! You can't blame Liu Pei for forcing them. An army without culture must be an army of ignorance. It is easy to be led in the wrong direction. Only this army has faith and has the courage to do so.

Only with knowledge can one have a soul. What's more, Liu Pei's expectation is not just to consume these servants as cannon fodder. He plans to select future grassroots administrative officials from among them.

When these servants retire in the future, Liu Pei will arrange for them to serve at the grassroots level. First of all, they are Liu Pei's servants, and their loyalty is guaranteed. Secondly, they have received strict training, are physically strong, and dare to fight.

Ordinary gangsters and scoundrels cannot beat them. Finally, they are from the lower class and are familiar with the situation at the bottom. They are also proficient in writing and understand the truth. They are the best candidates for grassroots cadres. They will completely break the strange phenomenon of imperial power not going to the countryside. Through them

Only then can we truly unite the country’s strength and use it for the country!

Unsurprisingly, from that day on, there was an upsurge in learning among the servants. Basically, these servants came from the countryside. They were simple and honest.

Park, but they are not stupid. Recently, these servants have been running around in Shandong to maintain salt roads, and some have gone to the two capitals in the north and south, and their horizons have been opened. They vaguely feel that the master does not want to stay in the

It's so easy to be a wealthy local on the beach. At the very least, the head of the family will definitely be interested in the salt roads in the entire Shandong. If the head of the family wants to control the production and sales of salt in the entire Shandong, it will not be something that the team of servants can handle!

Maybe I can become a small flag general or something. So for this reason, night school teachers in the army are particularly respected. Even those who are more literate among the servants are also sought after! Because Liu Pei made it clear that day:

Under the same conditions, those who are more literate will be promoted first! Maybe it's because I know five or six more words today, so I can be promoted before others! This is a big temptation for soldiers.

In the following period, life in Fushan Village became peaceful. The work of relocating the village has been completed. The military camp is gradually being built. The newly promoted Xiaoqi people are running around with their servants in full swing.

Either they were practicing or going out to inspect the salt road. The soldiers of the navy also went out to sea on fishing boats every day. Not only did they get a tan, but they also brought back a lot of fishing products every day.

Liu Pei finally lived a stable life for a few days. Now he trains servants and patrols various places every day. Occasionally he disappears for a few days and brings back a batch of goods. However, when he was in modern times, he did not return most of the time.

No one is seen at home. He only appears in front of people once every two or three months to have a romantic relationship with his lover Yu Lina. Most of the time, he stays in Daming.

As midsummer approached, the good news that Liu Pei had been waiting for finally came! Liu Jiang bought a sea-going ship from a businessman! But Liu Pei was skeptical about the sea-going ship. Because Liu Jiang was sending someone to deliver it.

The letter said: This boat is very dilapidated and needs to be repaired. And the owner said that it can no longer go out to the sea for business, but fishing in the offshore is still no problem.

However, Liu Pei planned to use this ship as a training ship and had never thought about transporting cargo. He did not take what Liu Jiang said seriously. So when he saw a sea-going ship in Jiaozhou Bay,
Chapter completed!
