The first thousand five hundred and ninety-eight chapters of Yiwu recruiting troops (1)
"I didn't understand why the young master came to Yiwu to recruit troops before, but now I understand. The Yiniao people are really frightened and fierce. They never retreat when fighting. They recruit them into the Zhejiang Army and fight as if they are risking their lives.
He will definitely be extremely brave when fighting."
Liu Dadao looked at the bloody and bloody scene below, couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva and murmured.
Looking at the bloody fighting scene below, Zhu Pingan suddenly felt a fire of ignorance igniting in his heart!
Such a brave and good man, the father and brother who supported the family, died in a fight!
What a waste of resources!
It’s so unworthy!
The same roommates are at war with each other, killing each other, and dying in vain. It is worthless and meaningless! Sad! Deplorable! Infuriating!
"Let's go, eat and hit the road, go straight to Yiwu County Government, visit the local magistrate, put up notices, and start recruiting troops!"
Zhu Pingan took a deep breath, calmed down, said goodbye to Liu Dadao and others, and left first.
Liu Dadao and others followed closely behind.
The group returned to the tea stall, ate the mutton soup and pancakes in a hurry, said goodbye to the boss and his family, got on their horses and headed straight for Yiwu County.
Yiwu County is a city with age and traces of time, with gray-black city walls, peeling wall coverings, and cement-coated city gates. Outside the city gate is an uneven loess road, where horses pass by, splashing yellow sand all over the sky.
"The little one has eyes but cannot see Mount Tai. I didn't know that Mr. Zhu Ping'an, the acting deputy envoy of the Procuratorate for Punishment, has arrived. Please forgive me, sir."
The city gatekeeper saw Zhu Ping'an's waist badge and was surprised to see that he was such a high official. He immediately stepped forward to salute with fear and fear.
"You are guarding the gate impartially. What crime have you committed? Please get up quickly. I am passing through your county. I have important business to visit your county. Please send someone to lead the way." Zhu Pingan took back his badge, helped the gatekeeper, and asked him
said.
"Sir, please follow me." The city gatekeeper volunteered to lead the way, then turned around and told the gatekeepers, "Liu Er, you guys are so good at guarding the gate!"
"Thank you, thank you!" Zhu Ping'an thanked him, and then said to Liu Dadao, "Let him have a horse."
The city gatekeepers were not polite, got on their horses and led the way.
Soon they arrived at the county government office. Zhu Ping'an got off his horse. The city gate official asked the government officials to take care of the horses of Zhu Ping'an and his party, and sent someone to report to the county magistrate quickly. Zhu Ping'an, the acting deputy envoy of the Zhejiang Prosecution Commission, arrived.
"Just keep Da Dao company with me. You can find a place to rest in the county government office. Pay attention to discipline and do not disturb the order of the county government office."
Zhu Ping'an ordered Liu Dadao to accompany him, and asked the others to rest in the front yard of the county government office, telling them not to disturb order.
The city gatekeeper arranged for the officers to lead fifty Zhejiang soldiers to the guest room to rest.
"I didn't know that Mr. Zhu was here, but I missed you from far away to greet you. Please forgive me." After receiving the notice, Zhao Qiancheng, the magistrate of Yiwu, ran all the way to greet him.
"No, I am an uninvited guest, causing trouble to your county and Mr. Zhao." Zhu Pingan said politely. On the way here, he had already inquired about the name of the magistrate of Yiwu County and other basic information.
"Master Zhu, please." Zhao Qiancheng, the magistrate of Yiwu, stretched out his hand to greet Zhu Pingan as he entered the county office, and led Zhu Pingan to his office room.
After sitting down, Magistrate Zhao poured a cup of tea for Zhu Ping'an and Liu Dadao each, and asked with some trepidation, "I haven't congratulated Mr. Zhu on his promotion to deputy envoy yet. I wonder what you are doing for Mr. Zhu's arrival today?"
Zhu Ping'an's name has become quite famous in several provinces south of the Yangtze River recently. He was the first to eliminate the Japanese pirates in Yingtian. Because of his meritorious service, he was promoted to Deputy Envoy of the Zhejiang Provincial Envoy and was promoted to a fourth-rank official. Who wouldn't envy him?
It is impossible for Zhao Qiancheng to say that he is not envious. His feelings are much deeper and more tangible than those of ordinary officials.
Because a few months ago, Zhu Pingan was just like him, the magistrate of a small county in the south of the Yangtze River.
However, a few months later, Zhu Ping'an first made great contributions to the fight against the Japanese in Jingnan, and was promoted to the Zhejiang Provincial Commissioner and Inspector General. Now he made great contributions to destroying the Japanese under Yingtian City, and was promoted to the fourth rank of the Zhejiang Provincial Governor.
The Criminal Inspector General Si acted as deputy envoy.
As for me, I am still a seventh grade county magistrate.
In just a few months, one was promoted from the seventh-rank county magistrate to the fourth-rank acting deputy envoy, while the other was still the seventh-rank county magistrate.
People's situations are so different, as vast as a gulf, how can we not feel envious.
Of course, envy is still secondary now, and anxiety is the main thing. Zhu Ping'an is now the acting deputy envoy of the Zhejiang Prosecution and Prosecution Commission. What does the Prosecution and Prosecution Commission of Zhejiang do? It is the Zhetai Yamen, and it is in charge of the Provincial Provincial Procuratorate.
Impeachment matters have both judicial and supervisory powers!
Zhu Ping'an suddenly landed in Yiwu and went straight to the Yamen without saying hello or giving any notice. What did he come to do?! Did something go wrong with the case I was handling?! Someone went to the Yamen of Yingtian to file a lawsuit against me?!
Zhixian Zhao couldn't help but feel uneasy in his heart.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhao. I am here today to recruit troops." Zhu Pingan directly stated his intention.
"Recruiting?!" Zhao Zhixian couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. It's not just the case supervisor who is asking me to trouble him. Wait, recruit soldiers. Come to us to recruit soldiers. Zhao Zhixian couldn't help but doubt his ears. He raised his head and looked at Zhu Ping'an.
He looked in disbelief and said, "Do you want to recruit troops from our Yiwu Guard Station?"
As the magistrate of Yiwu County, Zhao Qiancheng knew very well about the Yiwu Guardhouse that the barracks of the Yiwu Guardhouse were dilapidated, and out of a thousand-man establishment, there were only more than 100 people actually in the Guardhouse, and most of them were old, weak, sick, and disabled. Recently,
Due to the constant shortage of soldiers' pay and the fierce commotion of the Japanese pirates, some soldiers were killed or injured and some deserted. Now it is estimated that even a hundred people cannot be gathered.
How can these people fight? Zhu Pingan came to Yiwu Guard Station to recruit troops?! Is this a joke?
Zhu Ping'an shook his head slightly and said, "We are not recruiting troops from the guards, but recruiting troops from the people of Yiwu County."
"What?! Mr. Zhu wants to recruit troops from the people of Yiwu County?" Zhao Qiancheng couldn't help but stood up from his chair after hearing this, with a look of shock on his face.
"Your Excellency, you are recruiting troops! Please forgive me! Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Taizu has set up military households and guard posts. Military households have been serving as soldiers for generations. This is the ancestral system of our Ming Dynasty! Your Excellency wants to recruit troops. This is against our ancestors."
Please forgive me for not obeying my order!"
Zhao Qiancheng bowed his hands to Zhu Pingan, shook his head vigorously, and rejected Zhu Pingan's request.
"Haha, Mr. Zhao, please be patient. I am recruiting militiamen. I have not broken the ancestral system. Moreover, I am recruiting militiamen in accordance with the decree of the Holy One and the order of the new Governor-General Zhang Jing.
Order."
Zhu Ping'an smiled slightly. Zhao Zhixian's reaction was as expected, so he explained with a smile.
As Zhu Ping'an spoke, he took out two official documents from his arms and handed them to the magistrate Zhao for viewing. One was the imperial edict on "organizing military preparations" issued by the imperial court when he took up the post of Zhejiang Provincial Envoy Si Qianshi.
Granted Zhu Pingan the power to organize troops and recruit troops; the other was the official document for recruiting militiamen issued by Zhang Jinggang to Zhu Pingan, allowing Zhu Pingan's Zhejiang army to be deployed in Shandong, South Zhili, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong.
No local officials can stop the recruitment of 1,200 militiamen in any place within the seven provinces under the governorship of Guangxi and other places. They must open the door to facilitate the recruitment, cooperate and act expediently, and make no mistakes.
