"If you want to become my princess' bodyguard, you can, but you must pass the assessment!"
Gu Qingcheng wanted someone who could protect him, not the young master Yangzi who was just messing around.
She went directly to the New Army's military camp and contacted the commander directly.
Well, that commander is Huo Yun's immediate boss, a big warlord who occupies the capital.
If it weren't for Gu Qingcheng's previous momentum, she might not have been able to meet the commander in person as a "princess of a subjugated country".
However, Gu Qingcheng was high-profile in the newspaper and soon became a partner with the deputy envoy of country D.
The first batch of ordnance has arrived at the dock in Jincheng.
There will be a steady stream of weapons and equipment in the future.
As a local snake, the commander is very aware of the troubles and disturbances in his own territory.
Because of the beautiful Princess Gu Lun, the commander also heard about her name.
"He's really powerful, much better than that little emperor!"
"Know how to take advantage of the opportunity! Haha, the key is not, the D country people really let her 'borrow' successfully, our little princess must be a little impatient."
The commander really appreciated Gu Qingcheng.
In those days, everyone knew that foreigners were powerful.
However, it is not easy to seek help from foreigners.
Foreigners are not stupid, and they are not ancestors in the Chinese dynasty.
There are too many people who are chasing after others every day and trying to please them.
Why are they willing to "cooperate" with Princess Qingcheng, a princess who has subjugated her country?
Haha, don't give up the title of "princess".
After all, I want to be more noble than the little emperor next door.
But Princess Qingcheng succeeded in hooking up with the people of Country D and accepted the asylum of Country D.
Ru Ming even got weapons——
"One thousand guns, ten thousand bullets!"
The commander touched Dongba and felt slightly moved.
The ordnance is not much, but it is quite a lot.
If you make good use of Yidong, you can raise the strength of two more regiments.
With soldiers, you can have territory and become a local emperor.
"Forget it, for the sake of the weapon, oh no, otherwise for the sake of the people of D country, he would just meet the Princess Qingcheng."
Gu Qingcheng successfully met the commander and reached cooperation with the commander——
"The commander must have heard about it. He is willing to fund promising young people from abroad to study at the military academy of country D."
"There must be many young and promising generals under the commander's command."
"He can add an additional three thousand taels of red and silver and provide twenty places for the commander to go to country D for further study!"
Gu Qingcheng continued to use her skills.
She has money, and she is willing to pay to train talents for the commander!
Commander:...the situation is bad!
Look at her thigh-high pen, it really shows the magnanimity and nobility of a royal princess.
Haha, the twenty officers' places for further education are so popular. Doesn't it also give the commander an opportunity to show kindness to the East?
The commander expressed his satisfaction and was willing to serve Princess Qingcheng.
Gu Qingcheng:...Service? Haha, just listen to that!
Gu Qingcheng didn't ask too much, so he expressed that he wanted to use the commander's military camp.
She asked for the selection of bodyguards.
The first step is to check whether it is natural.
The second step is to pass the assessment and undergo a three-month training period for new recruits.
And these all need a suitable venue.
"Haha! It's a trivial matter! That's not a trivial matter!"
"Well, he has a military camp in Xishan. If the princess doesn't mind it, let's borrow it."
After listening to Gu Qingcheng's request, the commander smiled more sincerely than before.
I originally thought that Princess Qingcheng asked the lion to open her mouth and make some requests related to the royal family.
I didn't expect that people would want to borrow a military camp.
It's not like Liu Bei borrowed it from Jingzhou, but it only lasted for three months.
The commander felt that 3,000 taels per year for four consecutive years, just to borrow the military camp for three months, was a very worthwhile business!
Huoshui watched silently and secretly lit a row of wax for the commander!
Is the Queen of Heaven really taking advantage of her? Everything she does has a purpose.
Moreover, I dare not say that I will get it back ten times or a hundred times, but I will definitely not suffer a loss!
Commander Hengxi didn't know this, he thought he was getting an advantage, and treated Gu Qingcheng more and more kindly and enthusiastically - stupid people have a lot of money, haha, no wonder the people from country D are willing to cooperate with her!
Gu Qingcheng:...As long as I'm happy!
After borrowing the military camp, Gu Qingcheng began to publish "recruitment orders" in newspapers.
Princess Qingcheng Gu Lun, in accordance with the ancestral system, wants to select three hundred princess guards.
The conditions are as follows:
Priority will be given to children of the Eight Banners, aged 15-25 years old.
Good health, no bad habits, and no criminal record.
Those who are good at riding and shooting will be given priority!
Literate people, priority!
If you pass the assessment, you will be given two taels of silver.
Those who have passed three months of training as recruits will be given a reward of five taels of silver.
And once you pass the recruitment period, you will officially become the princess's bodyguard.
Each guard is given a salary of two taels of silver per month.
Military uniforms, war horses, ordnance, etc., complete set of equipment.
All food and accommodation are included, and each person is provided with two taels of meat per month...
It can be said that Gu Qingcheng's recruitment announcement was so favorable that even some new soldiers were attracted by it.
silver!
silver!!
Reading Donglai throughout the article, there is a word "money" in every word.
Very meaty!
Ma De, in those days, which military camp could provide two taels of meat per person?
It would be good if the big-headed soldiers had enough to eat. If it was a festival or if they were to eat some meat before the battlefield, then they would be treated very well.
Good thing Princess Qingcheng, she actually dares to promise to have meat to eat every day!
"She is a royal princess after all. The dynasty has been destroyed, but she is so damn rich!"
"There are many rich people, but no one is as heroic as the princess. That's not the magnanimity of a legitimate princess."
"Go! Ma De, although I don't reject the banner people, the princess didn't say that I must be the banner people!"
"Huh? That's wrong! Just say priority! But I also said you can't have bad habits!"
"Hehe! Among those young and old men, which one doesn't have a little bit of ruthlessness?"
Everyone was talking about whether they saw the newspaper or heard the news.
There were also people who carefully studied the conditions listed by Gu Qingcheng.
Well, although the founders mentioned that the children of the Eight Banners should be given priority, there are other restrictions.
Good health and no bad habits!
Tsk, just that one thing can wipe out more than half of the bannermen.
There is no way, those people are fighting chickens and lackeys, carrying cages and holding birds, and the dynasty has been destroyed, and they can't change their habit of "he is not the master".
It's so smokey that even some aunts can't keep their guns off their legs, let alone those "men".
Therefore, Gu Qingcheng seemed to be "following the ancestral system", but in fact he left a lot of room for it.
Therefore, when the registration period for the Princess Guards closed, there were more than 3,000 applicants!
Bannermen account for one quarter.
"Princess, so many people have signed up. After screening, we should be able to gather 300 people!"
Yuping was educated and literate, and followed Gu Qingcheng as a small accountant.
While she was settling accounts, she was secretly calculating the princess's "private property".
Well, although there are a lot of them, after all, any one of the princess's things is worth a lot of money.
However, things will run out sooner or later, and raising soldiers, even if there are only 300 people, is very expensive.
"Princess, if we go around like this and have nothing, our money will run out sooner or later!"
What should I do if I have no money?
Gu Qingcheng raised his eyebrows and looked consciously in the direction of Dongling.
Well, instead of leaving your ancestral graves to be ruined by outsiders, it would be better to do it yourself...
