After Min Yuanqi finished speaking, Liang Shifa hugged his fists and said: "With these declarations of adults, I think even if I die in battle, it will be okay for my mother-in-law to howl a few times, after all, even if my subordinates are alive, if there is no adult to carry it, it is just like this, and it is even far inferior." As long as the women have food and keep their children on their knees, there will always be hope and hope, and they will not be so sad. ”

"That's a bad thing." Min Yuanqi shook his head, and couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "How can anyone talk like this!" ”

But looking at the faces of Min Yuanjin, Yang Zhijin and others around them, it is obvious that everyone agrees with Liang Shifa's words.

The ten stones of grain and cloth that Min Yuanqi gave at one time added up to ten taels of silver, which was not too much. Before enlisting in the army, the battalion soldiers can also receive five taels of settlement silver, which is actually the pension silver given by the imperial court in advance. If a soldier dies in battle, the previous Anjia silver is the pension silver, if some generals or civil officials are benevolent and generous, after the soldiers die in battle, more or less give some pensions, which is almost an average of one or two taels of silver, and it is impossible to exceed five taels.

Most of the officers and soldiers died in battle, and no one would even inform the families of these soldiers, let alone any pensions.

Especially after Wanli, there were frequent wars, more than 100 people died at the level of deputy generals of the general army, and the Ming army added up to at least hundreds of thousands of people who died directly in the field. The army that can't even afford to pay the normal military salary, the court that is financially bankrupt, and the civilian officials and generals who have always regarded soldiers as mustard cannon fodder, there is no need to mention the word pension.

Min Yuanqi here, there was no Anjiayin beforehand, and he added up to ten stones of grain and a few pieces of cloth, which was not too much.

However, the next to raise the bereaved family, monthly food, as well as cloth, meat, eggs, firewood, etc., does not seem to cost much, but it represents a kind of sincerity, and the annual cost is almost ten taels of silver.

Moreover, this bereavement pension will not be stopped for two or three years, and will not stop until the eighteen-year-old Cheng Ding, one of the remnants of the flag army who died in the war, appears.

In fact, according to the standards at that time, the Jurchens were fifteen percent of the Ding, the Ming Dynasty has always been counted as a Ding for men over the age of sixteen, and Min Yuanqi raised the remnants of the Banner Army who died in the battle until eighteen before they became Ding, which means that each family has to have an extra two or three years of pension silver, which is more benevolent and kind.

It's no wonder that Liang Shifa originally looked embarrassed, but when he heard the end, his face turned from cloudy to sunny, and he didn't even feel embarrassed.

Min Yuanqi is also a gain, this year and era, the average life expectancy of people may be about thirty to forty, the medical level is extremely poor, the medical skills of this era are stronger than witchcraft, even if the poor medical standard is not affordable by the common people.

Ordinary people live for a long time on the hunger or food and clothing line, long-term hard work, malnutrition, lack of medical treatment, and the future generations can be cured of minor illnesses without medicine for a few days, in this era it is not uncommon for a peasant man who is full of lean muscles and watches the life of a tiger to die.

As for the death of children, not to mention the vulnerability of the elderly.

In winter and early spring, the severe cold and lack of food and clothing cause a large number of poor people to die, and every day in the cities, the corpses of the road are collected and thrown out of the city to be incinerated and buried, and the dead are even more rare in the vast countryside.

In the harsh environment, those superior people can fill in the words and make a fuss, sad spring and autumn, and the people are like ants to live, too much emotion is just a burden, the attitude of Liang Shifa and others is quite obvious, if the family suddenly dies and there is nothing left, those women will have an extremely difficult life, if there is no help from relatives and friends of the clan, the fate of them and the children can be imagined.

If there is Min Yuanqi's pension and guarantee, although it is still sad, it is more gratifying.

These generous pensions are enough for women to take their children with peace of mind and raise the children of the dead flag army to adulthood.

For Min Yuanqi, putting aside his true emotions and using a small amount of money and food to comfort the bereaved families of the fallen flag army, it is not much for him, but in addition to comforting the deceased and appeasing the bereaved families, more benefits are the living soldiers.

If each flag army knows that they have no worries, the courage and strength that burst out will increase exponentially when they fight on the battlefield.

Today's battle, although it will not be used to pacify the soldiers, but Min Yuanqi also knows that it is the mobilization before the war and the severe punishment of the flag army for violating military law, which makes many flag soldiers feel afraid, morale, training, plus the trinity of military law, plus the war has been fought very smoothly, although the number of flag troops is small, they crush the bandits in all aspects such as equipment training and morale, and the victory of this battle is not worth pride.

However, there were many problems in the war, the flag team was disjointed, the cooperation between the general commanders was not in place, there was a lack of a decisive means of attack, and Min Yuanqi's dispatch and command also lacked benignness and was too prudent and serious.

If it weren't for the inspiration of Min Yuanzhi later, Min Yuanqi decisively changed from horizontal to vertical and outflanked, I am afraid that about half of the pirates and bandits would have escaped smoothly.

It's not that Min Yuanqi is bloodthirsty and easy to kill, but the pirates and bandits are all fierce and vicious, this time the killing is very heavy, the two sides have formed a deep hatred, if they don't cut the grass and eradicate the roots, although the remaining bandits are not opponents, they can't have the courage to fight after battle, but they run to Yunti Pass here every once in a while, and from time to time they sneak up on the surrounding villages, or rob the caravan that goes out to buy grain, and even drive a boat to rob on the seaside river is very likely to happen.

Although for the foundation of the entire 300th household, a small fight is not enough to shake the foundation, but in the long run, people's hearts will fluctuate and they will not feel at ease, and it is inevitable that the overall income will be affected.

can be wiped out in one fell swoop, how can you keep them to go back for the New Year?

The pirates and invading bandits were almost completely slaughtered, and the loss of their own side was not large, and the next thing was to reorganize the team, learn lessons and lessons, and then expand the number of flag troops, and strive to build another four hundred in two months, and after the strength of two divisions, then build a cavalry general, a guard assault general, as well as a herald flag team, a guard flag team, a suppression flag team and other directly subordinate units, plus the chief officer, auxiliary officials, clerks and other personnel of the auxiliary divisions, a complete thousand headquarters is completed.

In Min Yuanqi's consideration, a thousand headquarters must be equipped with a number of logistics troops, and now a team is equipped with a number of firefighters, and a flag team is equipped with a few additional firefighters, these firefighters and flag team firefighters carry a certain amount of baggage with mules and horses, but there is no way to afford the entire thousand headquarters.

There has to be another baggage flag team or baggage general, so that it is almost enough.

The number of mules and horses has to be increased many times, and the current number of mules and horses is still far from the high logistics support envisioned by Min Yuanqi.

Even compared with the Tang Army in history, it is far behind, the Tang Army's ration of baggage mules and horses can be called luxurious, and the Ming Army can't catch up with the horses, the difference between the two is too far.

In addition, it is necessary to train some second-line troops, who are responsible for garrisoning and defending, and can also be local security forces.

The training intensity of such a unit cannot be compared with that of the soldiers of the front-line thousand headquarters, and the salary and treatment are also one level worse, which is suitable for those hesitant young and strong military households; after a period of training and garrisoning, they may not be willing to be paid one level lower and voluntarily join the combat units, or they can be directly forcibly selected and entered.

As for military households between the ages of 35 and 50 who have lost their energy, they are more suitable to join the second-line garrison and defense units and become a supplement to the first-line troops.

If a number of peasant and soldier generals are built, there are about 3,000 armed people here in Yunti Pass, even if there are more than 10,000 Liukou and guest soldiers pressing the territory, Min Yuanqi feels that relying on the geographical advantage and the people, it is not impossible to fight with the enemy.

At that point, the Cloud Ladder Pass will be stabilized, and it will truly have the power to protect itself in this troubled world.

However, when he thought of this, Min Yuanqi was also a little hesitant and hesitant, if from the perspective of ordinary flag soldiers and military households, it is already a blessing to be able to protect himself in this troubled world, and he wants to ask for more? But Min Yuanqi knew that it was a matter of time before the Qing army went south, and he would either shave his hair and surrender at that time, or he would have to face the Qing army's iron cavalry.

Resist a wave of attacks, what if the Qing army mobilizes the main force to attack?

If a certain amount of troops, financial and material resources have been accumulated, what if they go south in advance?

When the time comes, how to persuade everyone to flee south with him, not to mention others, even Min Yuanqi is very distressed when he thinks about it.

Why is the morale of the main soldier higher than that of the guest soldiers, protecting the water and soil of their own side, not only family and friends, but also the environment in which they grew up, every brick and tile, every grass and tree are so familiar, it is the place where they grew up, and they are all old relatives and friends, as well as the ancestral cemetery of the ancestors, the family inheritance, and it is heartbreaking to give up all these things.

Min Yuanqi, who knows the direction of history, is still like this, not to mention the rest of the people?

It's really useless to think too much, and the more you think about it, the more annoying it becomes.

I can only see walking steps and see tricks.

"Since I don't want to be in charge of the army, I understand now that after today, your rise will be unstoppable." Min Qiande also took a turn in the banner army, and met with many familiar military attaches and family relatives and friends, and everyone also had great respect for the current old patriarch of the Min family, but when Min Qiande found the corpses of two descendants of the Min family among the fallen soldiers, his face was also extremely difficult to see.

The uncle and nephew waited side by side, Li Kecheng had already urgently summoned hundreds of military households to come over, and several nearby hundreds of households rushed over, everyone was extremely respectful to Min Yuanqi, and even a few hundred households had a look of fear on their faces.

Min Yuanqi is already a monopoly here at least in Yunti Pass, and the official position of the deputy thousand households is not worth mentioning, what matters is the strength in his hands.

With the combat power displayed by more than 400 banner soldiers this time, even if Min Yuanqi commanded Dahewei's palm print, he had the confidence to take the initiative to show favor to win over him.

A large number of military households appeared on the beach like ants, carrying the corpses of bandits and pirates together, and more than 100 people with shovels and shovels and other objects dug deep pits not far from the seashore.

However, in the process of digging pits and carrying corpses, many military households stripped off the robes of the bandits with their hands and feet, and even those who were stained with blood did not let go. In addition to the robes, of course, shoes and some miscellaneous items will not be spared, such as knives, salt packets, fire folds, etc., all of which have been turned out.

The poverty and embarrassment of the military households can be seen from the current actions, they are really too poor, even these blood-stained clothes and insignificant sundries are rare good things for these military households.

Min Qiande's emotion came from the self-reflection of his own lack of ability, and he also felt when he saw the scene in front of him.

"Under your rule, Yuan Qi, the military households are much stronger than the rest of the hundred households." Min Qiande said solemnly: "After this battle, your influence will be greatly increased, and the profits will also increase exponentially." As your clan uncle, I hope you will go further, but I also hope that you will remember that the ancestors of the Min family took root here. If there is an opportunity, I should also help the other hundred households, so that the lives of these people in front of me can also be better......"
