Sun Jie sighed: "Eldest sister, although that old man is old-fashioned and upright, he is not stupid. www.biquge.info Don't forget that this is already a frontier front, and the mountain bandits have advanced to the city, and it is definitely very difficult to defend such a large area.

"It's a pity that he can't blatantly expand the troops, in this case, then when he encounters our lord and Mark, two rich subordinates, he will definitely take the opportunity to make up his mind to scrape oil and water, so it is normal for him to give us an armed establishment.

"You must know that the more you have, the more you can do with this kind of thing that not only does not have to pay for yourself, but also has money to collect, and you can increase the strength of the defense without being responsible for managing and feeding yourself. Don't you see that the lieutenant colonel specially reminded us of our obligation to defend the city? ”

If the officer of the wing heard that he had carried out this act of appointment in order to improve the lives of his subordinates, and was so misunderstood by Sun Jie, I don't know what the look on his face would be?

Zhou Wen patted his chest and said: "Hehe, it turns out that this is the reason, I am still afraid that they want to frame adults, but are they not afraid that these armed forces will not be controlled?" ”

Sun Jie shook his head and smiled: "If other people have these armed forces, the wing will definitely be worried, but the adults and Mark are both officers of the wing, and this armed force is also the empire, unless the adults and Mark are undercover agents sent by Shanyue Country, otherwise what is he worried about?" Could it be that Lord and Mark will use this amount of force to rebel? ”

Zhou Wen said with a smile: "Hehe, I think adults can have so many troops, but Mark is only so little, I can conclude that they must have concerns in this regard, compared with Mark, adults must be more trustworthy, so adults have more soldiers than Mark."

"By the way, if they can increase their strength in this way, why didn't they use it this way before? Do you have to be here with Adults and Mark to do this? ”

Sun Jie rolled his eyes and said in a tone of hatred: "Please, eldest sister, don't you see that it is obviously an increase in defense troops, which is beneficial to the wing, but they still have to collect money?"

What does this mean? It shows that the Fifth Wing is underfunded, and since the funds are insufficient, how can it be possible for the officers of the Wing Headquarters to expand the troops? If it weren't for seeing that we adults have money, I'm afraid that such benefits would not have fallen on us. ”

Zhou Wen immediately didn't hear Sun Jie's words, and turned to Zhao Hu and said, "My lord, how many people do we recruit?" If you don't let us overtake the wing, then it's the same as the wing, how about recruiting him five brigades? ”

Sun Jie also said: "My lord, then Mark is also recruiting troops outside, we have to take the lead and occupy the school field in the outer courtyard!" ”

Zhou Wen nodded and said, "That's right!" However, Mark will definitely use the name of the City Guard to recruit manpower, how to use the names of our four troops? I feel like there are too many names, and there will be a bit of confusion in the command. Adults want a special name, right? ”

Zhao Hu, who didn't know how to choose a name, said casually: "Let's call it the Jinwencheng Guard, anyway, the soldiers of this unit are all from Jinwencheng, I believe they will like it very much." ”

Sun Jie and Zhou Wen, the two guys who originally fantasized about what their names were, were dumbfounded when they heard this, this is too casual, right? But listening to the latter sentence, his face was immediately full of convincing and admiration, as soon as this name came out, the people of Jin Wencheng would regard it as their own troops, and the people's hearts came over at once, and the adults deserved to be adults.

Zhao Hu didn't care what his two subordinates were thinking, got up and said, "Each person will leave a war horse, and the rest will be sent to the team headquarters." ”

"What! My lord, give more than 260 war horses to the wing headquarters? These horses of ours are the best! Zhou Wen immediately objected.

Sun Jie, who knew what was going on, persuaded tactfully: "Yes, my lord, even if we consider that Mark sent the war horses out, we don't need to send so much, sending more than one hundred and thirty horses is enough, the quality of our war horses is better than that of the Imperial Capital Forbidden Army." ”

"It doesn't matter, anyway, this mountainous area is not suitable for cavalry at all, only infantry can fight. We left so many war horses, but it will make us dependent on the cavalry, and our minds will not be reversed, if it is not for the convenience of sending the message, it is no problem to send all the war horses.

"That's it, let's send another dish by the way. Let's go and recruit soldiers, the sooner you recruit, the sooner you train. Zhao Hu smiled disapprecatingly.

"Yes." Zhou Wen and Sun Jie glanced at each other, sighed helplessly and nodded to receive the order.

Mark sent his men to the cross streets of the city and shouted, "The West Gate City Guard is recruiting!" Food and lodging, one gold coin per person per month, the number of places is limited, and those who wish to do so should hurry. ”

I don't know if the proposed treatment is amazing or what, after the guards shouted, a group of old men and old ladies immediately rushed up.

Mark, who had been smug and fantasized that he had carefully selected three hundred soldiers from among the dense strong men, was surrounded by these old men with white hair, wrinkled faces, hunched backs, and falling in the wind, and was immediately awakened.

He hurriedly shouted: "There is an age limit, we only recruit able-bodied men between the ages of fifteen and forty-five!" He motioned to his subordinates to pass on the additional conditions to other recruiting points.

As if they hadn't heard, the old men and women gathered around them, and their eyes were shining, making Mark and the guards tremble.

"Ahem, I don't know what is the matter with you, uncles and aunts? As long as I can do it, please feel free to speak. Mark coughed dryly and said with a soft expression. At this moment, his expression is completely like that of a little brother next door.

It may be that Mark's expression is reassuring, and after the crowd was silent for a while, an old man at the moment showed a smile, revealing the black and yellow mutilated Yanan in his mouth, and said in a leaky tone: "My lord, I don't know when your recruitment will stop?" My grandson is definitely a good soldier because he is strong and strong, but he is farming outside the city, so I wonder if the adults can wait for a while? Little Lao'er immediately went to call my grandson back. ”

The old man and lady on the side immediately nodded in agreement.

Mark, who pricked up his ears, understood what was going on for a while, and said with a smile in his heart: "Of course there is no problem, but old man, you have to let your grandson come back as soon as possible, our city guard has a quota limit, if your grandson comes back, but our city guard recruits enough places, then I can't help it." ”

"Ahh Then we're going to have to get that little cub back! When the old man and the old lady heard this, they immediately began to shout in a mess, but they also began to turn around and prepare to leave.

While dealing with these old men and women who have taken one step and two times and must keep a place for themselves, Mark is secretly proud that he has a good relationship with the people all of a sudden.

At this moment, two war horses rumbled from a distance, and the old man and lady, who were originally sluggish, suddenly moved quickly to hide aside, and bowed their heads in unison.

Seeing that these two cavalrymen were Zhao Hu's personal guards, Mark had a bad premonition in his mind.

As he guessed, the two Zhao Hu guards first dismounted, pasted a notice with the seal of the joint team headquarters on the corner of the wall, and then stood on the back of the horse and opened their throats and shouted: "Princes of Jin Wencheng: Due to the rampant mountain banditry, Jin Wencheng urgently needs to strengthen the escort force, and now Major Zhao Hu is specially ordered to form the Jin Wencheng Guard.

"This escort team recruits a number of adult men between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five, who belong to the Jinwencheng Guard, and enjoy the rights and obligations of the same local garrison, and those who meet the conditions immediately report to the gate of the former county magistrate's mansion! Recruitment will be stopped as soon as the preparation is completed! This order, the Fifth Wing Headquarters. ”

The loud roar of Zhao Hu's guards immediately made those old men and women raise their heads in surprise, and when they saw the notice on the wall, they immediately circled it, and some old men who were not dizzy and could read began to read the words on the notice in a low voice.

Mark only felt that the corners of his eyes were constantly shaking, although he knew that Zhao Hu must also be beneficial, but he didn't expect it to be the formation of the entire Jinwen City Guard! You can guess without asking, the minimum strength of this escort team is five times larger than its own Ximen City Guard!

Although Zhao Hu's proclamation used a command-style recruitment, and also required the strong men to report on their own, Mark was sure that the outstanding strong men who were interested in joining the army would definitely defect to Zhao Hu as soon as possible.

Anyone who looks at it will think that Zhao Hu's side is a regular army, not only with a notice, but also with the big seal of the wing department, and standing on the street like himself to recruit, it is simply a world of difference!

Mark knew that he could only pick the leftovers that Zhao Hu didn't want now, and he knew this fact by looking at the hot eyes of those old men and old ladies.

Thinking of this, Mark felt uncomfortable, and his chest was like a wall, but Mark knew that he couldn't vent in front of the public, so he had to spit fiercely: "Let everyone go back!" And he took the lead and left.

Of course, his guards knew what was going on, but they also understood that they couldn't do anything with them, so they had to glare at the two Zhao Hu guards who were arrogant and explained the meaning of the notice to the old men, and left helplessly.

After Zhao Hu's notice was posted, coupled with the guards who were scattered to dozens of intersections and read it out loud, it didn't take a day to let the people of the entire Jinwen City know about the existence of this Jinwen City guard, although it was not stated how much the treatment was, but a single sentence was equivalent to the guarantee of the treatment of the garrison, which was enough to make people's eyes red.

The treatment of the garrison, not only does it include food and accommodation, but also gold coins to get every month, and more importantly, no one cares about going out to fight sideways, you must know that the fifth wing in Jinwen City is the emperor of the soil!

This is definitely a huge temptation for the common people who can only face the loess with their backs to the sky and work hard to rake and eat, or can only cross mountains and mountains, wade across rivers and hunt for a living.
