Chapter 84 Rules
Qin Zhao's recruitment plan went smoothly. It took five days to promote it, and then it took eight days for the physical examination. It took only twelve days for Qin Zhao to recruit more than 1,100 soldiers with qualified physical fitness.
From then on, Qin Zhao had a military team that could be commanded by himself.
Unlike the thirty Dings on the Chiyun Peak, Qin Zhao is now the imperial court official, and his order represents the will of the court in front of this team. If Qin Zhao is determined to let this army attack a certain target, except for the troops in Nanjing City, this army dare not offend, the army will serve the other targets.
Qin Zhao's success in the Southern Ming Dynasty will start with this team based on this team.
Qin Zhao stood in front of the team, and the soldiers in the team did not dare to move.
Qin Zhao has already paid a lot of monthly money for many soldiers. Because many soldiers are from the poorest families, there are quite a few who will soon be out of food in this month when they are not available. Therefore, Qin Zhao asked many soldiers to advance their monthly money for one month, two or even three months in advance, and take the money home to support their families.
In short, the servants and soldiers below already knew that the three or two months of money Qin Zhao promised was not a joke, but a real treatment for soldiers.
In such a time of inability to protect you, what else can you say about such treatment? Only by serving your wholeheartedly and keeping the food you served as a soldier is.
So when Qin Zhao stood in front of the team, he found that the team was very disciplined. Although the soldiers' uniforms were not ready, each of them stood in a straight line in their front, back, left and right directions. More than one thousand and one hundred people stood in a square array of 20 times 56, neatly arranged.
Qin Zhao stood on the platform in front of the soldiers, walked a few steps left and right, and said loudly: "I am very happy that your queue is standing very well."
"From today, you will be my Qin Zhao's soldiers."
"You are from all the houses and towns in Xiangshan County. But you are my fellow villagers of Qin Zhao. I, Qin Zhao, was born and raised in Xiangshan County, and was raised by the water here. You and I are fellow villagers and have a common bloodline."
"I hope every soldier who joins my team has a bright future, so I give you such a high monthly salary and let you eat two taels of meat and meat every meal, so that you will not be malnourished."
"And in exchange, I want you to be absolutely loyal to me."
Qin Zhao walked to the center of the high platform and said loudly: "I am the official of the court, the official of the fifth-rank thousand households. The imperial edict appointed me as the thousand households, and gave me the power to recruit soldiers and horses. You are the servants I recruit, and I want you to absolutely obey my command and do what you want."
"No matter whether there are swords, fires, or chaos monsters in front of you, I will let you rush up, and I will not allow anyone to retreat."
"Because everything I do is to ensure my business, my family, and my power will not be destroyed by others in this era. Because once the things I protect are destroyed by others, I will no longer be able to pay the monthly money to support you, and you will become a tree without roots and will eventually disperse and become dust that can be trampled on by others."
"You will become a wealthy servant who everyone envies. You will be a wealthy soldier who is popular and spicy, so that the family behind you can rely on you. You must understand that all this is hard-won. Only by completely obeying my command and serving bravely can you not lose everything you have today and get better and better!"
"Do you understand?"
Qin Zhao shouted loudly.
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
The soldiers below answered loudly one by one, shouting out with the maximum voice.
How simple is it to serve in a meal? Qin Zhao doesn’t need to emphasize it, and the soldiers also understand this truth. Qin Zhao emphasizes it like this, and the soldiers will have a clearer understanding.
Qin Zhao shouted loudly: "In the future, I will let you train, you will have to practice hard. If I ask you to use a gun, you will abandon your sword and use a musket to fight. If I ask you to attack Guangzhou City and Zhaoqing Prefecture, you are not allowed to frown."
"Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
The servants replied vigorously.
"You are part of me, Qin Zhao. Just like my arms and fists, I am cherished by me, and I also act as my weapon to attack my enemies at any time according to my will."
"Who dares to violate my will, make noise in the team, hesitate to give in on the battlefield, and kill!"
"Do you understand?"
The soldiers slowly learned to agree in unison, dragging their voices together and shouting in unison: "It's clear~~~!"
Qin Zhao nodded and walked back and forth on the high platform.
"The name of this team is called the Service Group."
"Ten people are in a squad, thirty-one people are in a row, ninety-four people are in a company, and two hundred and eighty-three people are in a battalion."
"The battalion commander of the first battalion, his surname is Qin and Ning!"
"The battalion commander of the second battalion, his surname is Zhao, Liangce."
"The commander of the third battalion, his surname is Huang, Deneng."
"The battalion commander of the fourth battalion, his surname is Qin and his name is Zheng."
The officers introduced by Qin Zhao stood on the high platform one after another and stood beside Qin Zhao.
"And I, Qin Zhao, is the leader of the service regiment and coordinate the overall situation."
After Qin Zhao finished speaking, he stood on the platform, thinking about what else he had not said.
After thinking about it, Qin Zhao felt that there was nothing to emphasize. It is impossible to improve the awareness and cultivation of soldiers in one go. It must be done step by step and take it slowly. Today, it is enough to talk about the need to obey orders.
Qin Zhao stood on the stage and waved his hand, saying, "Okay! Come together every five days from now on, everyone will listen to me! That's all today, everyone goes to the kitchen to have a meal and eat meat!"
...
On the seventh day of the eighth month, Qin Zhao took Qin Youli and four servants to ride on the horse on the road to Chiyun Peak.
Qin Zhao asked without a word: "How much Japanese gunpowder has come from the Zheng family?"
Qin Youli replied: "The dealer has received 2,200 kilograms of black gunpowder. The price is settled at one or five cents, which is three cents cheaper than the last time we bought gunpowder. I asked the workers to store all of them in the back mountain of Chiyun Peak, and settled 3,300 taels of silver with the Zheng family."
Qin Zhao nodded.
Qin Youli bowed and said, "Master, now Jinghai Fort Jiading Camp has recruited 1,000 new servants, and the county's pork cannot be supplied. In the past, Jiang Dayong, a butcher in the county, killed one pig every day, and sometimes two, it is no problem to sell us ten kilograms of meat. Thirty servants and craftsmen in the workshop can eat three kilograms of meat."
"But now there are a thousand people all at once. Each person has to eat 300 kilograms of meat every meal. In the morning, each person needs one chicken and one thousand chicken. Three hundred kilograms of meat must be killed to get together. This has not yet been considered a soft chair factory that has been expanding continuously. Now the soft chair factory has expanded to more than fifty people. Jiang Dayong killed three pigs a day yesterday and the day before yesterday. Today, there are no pigs stored in his pig pen. I don't know when the villagers will drive the pigs into the city to kill him."
Qin Youli said embarrassedly: "Master, why don't we cut off the meat and meat of the servants first and let the servants and workers eat vegetarian food for a few days. When there are pigs in the county town, we will kill the pigs and feed the servants meat."
Qin Zhao said unhappily: "Nothing!"
"I set the rule that every meal of the servants is two taels of meat and three taels of meat for officers. How can I change it if I say it? "
"This is my rule!"
"There are no pigs in Xiangshan County, so I went to Nanhai County to buy them. If it really doesn't work, I went to Guangzhou City. Guangzhou has a population of more than 300,000, but it still can't supply meat and meat for 1,000 of us? Go to Yongle Township to take a sand boat and go back and forth that day."
