Poof!

Poof!

As soon as Li Cunxiao's words fell, the 8,500 captives on the school ground all knelt down and shouted in unison:

"We swear allegiance to the Lord and the Chen Legion!!"

The voices of the people gathered together, and they couldn't help but form an overwhelming trend, which made people's blood boil.

At this moment, the 8,500 captives were the Chen Legion that really wanted to surrender to Chen Lingxiao.

After all, the purpose of their military service is very simple: it is to get military pay and eat military rations!

There are natural disasters every year in these years, and it is not easy for ordinary people to live!

When a soldier eats military rations to support himself, military salaries support his parents, brothers and sisters, wives and children.

They are exchanging their lives for money and food, so to speak!

Whoever is treated well, who does not withhold military salaries and does not drink the blood of soldiers, is a good master in their hearts, and they will be loyal to whom!

People's hearts are flesh and blood, so they naturally know what to do!

The treatment given by Chen Lingxiao, if it is not discounted, is much better than that given by the third prince Qi Chao.

Chen Gong looked at the captives kneeling below, nodded with satisfaction, and said:

"Rise up, everybody, and we will be one family from now on.

The family does not speak two words, our Chen Legion has strict military discipline, and the training is more difficult than the army you were originally loyal to, so you must make psychological plans.

Of course, hard training and strict discipline are for the good of the Lord and the good of the Lord, so that he can continue to win battles;

On the other hand, it is also for your own good, only if you are proficient in sharp combat skills, and you fight the enemy on the battlefield, you can kill the enemy, not be killed by the enemy.

Moreover, if you kill the enemy, you can also make military achievements in exchange for silver and gold coins.

Therefore, it is necessary to train strictly and strictly enforce military discipline, which is of great benefit to both the lord and yourself.

I hope you can persevere, don't complain!

When training, if you sweat more, you will have one more chance to save your life and make meritorious contributions on the battlefield!"

Chen Gong's words fell, and the 8,500 captives below all fell into deep thought, thinking about Chen Junshi's words.

Chen Gong and Li Xiaocun quietly looked at the people below and did not say anything to disturb them.

After a while.

The captives said in unison: "We are not afraid of hardship, we are not afraid of tiredness!!"

Chen Gong nodded:

A good man must be able to endure hardships and have ambition!

Eat hard to become a master!

Next, my lord took the lead in giving each of you three months' military salary, which was paid according to the original double standard.

In addition, for lunch at noon today, each of you will add half a catty of Dongpo meat!"

As soon as Chen Gong's words fell, the school field below was boiling.

"Long live the lord!"

"Long live the Lord!!"

"Long live the lord!!"

The 8500 captives shouted excitedly in unison.

Chen Gong looked at them and remembered four words:

Grace and power!

The lord is really clever!

Buy people's hearts and be willing to spend a lot of money!

Other monarchs would never give such a high military salary!

Chen Gong admired the lord more and more: generous, bold!

Soon, the soldiers carried boxes of gold and silver coins, piled up like a hill, and placed them there.

Whoa!

Whoa!

Chen Gong ordered people to pour it out directly, and in the sun, the gold and silver coins were shining brightly, shining on people's eyes.

Hundreds of clerks started work at the same time, paying and registering the 8,500 new recruits who had joined the Chen Legion below.

A soldier received real silver coins and gold coins, and he couldn't help himself with excitement.

Originally, they thought that if they became captives, they would either die or be dragged to work as coolies in mining and other fields.

Unexpectedly, it was a blessing in disguise!

The soldiers were getting happier and happier to join the Chan Legion.

Moreover, they had never seen which main guild paid soldiers several months in advance, and Chen Lingxiao was definitely the first!

If the other lords don't want to do anything, it's good to deduct military salaries!

At noon, as Chen Gong said, dozens of big fat pigs were slaughtered, and half a catty of Dongpo meat was added to each soldier.

The soldiers ate with their mouths full of oil, and they enjoyed it.

In their hearts, they became more and more grateful to the Chen clan and the lord!

The name of Dongpo meat, they have heard it for a long time!

However, this famous dish is very expensive, and it is by no means affordable for ordinary soldiers like them.

Before, I could only be greedy.

I didn't expect to be able to eat half a catty today, and I was addicted to it.

The soldiers secretly swore in their hearts that they would be loyal to the lord and make great contributions to the lord!

After eating, rest for half an hour.

General Li Cunxiao began to train hard, and these new soldiers who joined the Chen Legion.

In the evening, the legs of the recruits trembled from exhaustion, but none of them complained.

Chen Gong's ideological work has been done very well.

The military salaries distributed today and the money for the purchase of big fat pigs are all in the treasury of Nanshan City.

Today, it can be regarded as borrowing flowers to offer Buddha!

After taking care of the affairs of the army.

Chen Gong began to deal with government affairs and people's livelihood.

The lord attacked Nanshan City, not like the dogs of the horseback people, who plundered and left like bandits, but to firmly control Nanshan City, develop it well, provide logistical support for the army, and increase the number of soldiers.

Chen Gong sent people to post a number of announcements in the crowded places in the city.

First, the tax burden order, all tax burdens are reduced by half for half a year;

the second is the conscription order, which states the preferential treatment, as well as the age of the conscription;

The third is to recruit talents with civil positions and talents, such as Xiucai and Juren, to enter the Nanshan City Lord's Mansion as officials.

fourth, control orders, including curfews, etc.;

Fifth, subsidies for farmers are mainly issued to hybrid rice seeds and sweet potato seeds;

Sixth, the recruitment order recruits skilled craftsmen......

If these decrees can be vigorously implemented, it will not be long before Nanshan City will surely glow with a new atmosphere of vitality.

In the early evening.

Another army of 3,000 people was stationed in Nanshan City.

This army was captured and adapted from Jiannan City, and before Tian Feng arrived in Jiannan City, Jia Xu and Zhao Zilong had already completed the reorganization task.

Because, General Zhao Zilong was transferred back to Black Wind City, and Jiannan City did not have a martial sect-level fierce general, and these soldiers were trained.

Therefore, according to the order of the lord, 3,000 recruits from Jiannancheng were mobilized to Nanshan City and trained by General Li Cunxiao.

Tian Feng himself rushed to Linhe City with a part of the soldiers to carry out the reorganization of the army.

A few days later, the three cities of Linhe City, Wushan City and Xijiang City also successfully completed the reorganization of the army, and all the recruits were concentrated in Nanshan City and trained by Li Cunxiao.

The total number of the newly formed army is already 20,000 people, which is three times more than the army brought out by Han Xin and Li Cunxiao to attack Lingnan County, and the harvest can be described as huge.

If this new army is well trained and pulled into the battlefield, it will expand the territory of the Lord's open territory and make meritorious contributions.

Of course, if you want this army to form a strong combat effectiveness, it still needs time to precipitate and baptize war.

The Predator Legion is watered with hard sweat, blood and fire.

In addition, the government affairs of the four major cities of Jiannan City, Wushan City, Linhe City and Xijiang City are also carrying out various reforms in the same way as Nanshan City.

These things were presided over by Tian Feng and Chen Gong.

......

Black Wind City, Chen's mansion.

A shadow agent ran in and respectfully announced:

"Lord Qi, Chen Gongjun sent a telegram saying:

The reorganization of the captive army has been completed, and a total of 20,000 new troops have been reorganized.

In addition, various government reforms are also being carried out gradually. Please rest assured, Chen Gong and Tian Feng will definitely control the five cities of Lingnan County.

Finally, General Li Cunxiao said:

After the reorganization of the army, there are not many capable grass-roots officers, and the gap is relatively large. ”

When Chen Lingxiao heard this, he fell into thought.

Nowadays, as the territory grows larger, there are more and more management talents.

The same is true of the military, the larger the army, the more junior officers there are.

If there are not enough outstanding grassroots personnel, it will be difficult to control the army and these territories.

Although it is easy to get a thousand troops and a general is hard to find, and the top advisers and generals are important, the grassroots talents below are equally important.

If the grassroots officials and generals are incompetent, no matter how good the decisions and plans are, they will be aborted at the implementation level.

It is necessary to grasp both the high-level and low-level levels, and both hands must be hard.

In other words, high-level talents and grass-roots talents are like people's two legs, no matter which leg is lame.

Chen Lingxiao's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "Come on, go and invite Master Xiao He over to me!"

In addition, give me a reply to General Li Cunxiao, a junior officer, and let him figure out his own way for the time being, and I don't have any extra officers to send to him here. ”

"Yes, lord!" the shadow agent respectfully withdrew.

......

Changqing Mountain, Changqing City, Killing Department.

A subordinate took a volume of secret letters, quickly ran into the main hall of the killing department, and knelt down in front of a middle-aged man who exuded a terrifying momentum, and reported respectfully:

"Minister, the killing personnel from Wu Guo's side have sent back the news, please take a look. ”

Ke Yuanzu, the head of the killing department, took the secret letter, opened it and looked at it, and his face instantly became ugly!

A pair of big hands couldn't help but clench tightly, and the secret letter was crumpled into a ball, and a terrifying murderous aura like a substance suddenly spread! !

Suddenly, it was as if the temperature of the entire hall had suddenly become lower!

The subordinate kneeling in front of him was trembling with fright, and cold sweat was streaming down his forehead!
