Text Chapter 146 Celebration 2
Those who have constant birth have perseverance. Yu Zhilong used heavy rewards to motivate the soldiers in the front, and then supplemented by the gift of acres of land, this time a total of thousands of acres of land were given, and he believed that the soldiers of the department could be firmly tied to the development of the Jing'an Army.
The official position of wealth and silk is moving, fair statistics and verification of the results of the battle, and timely rewards for meritorious people can greatly motivate soldiers to use their lives, but for ordinary soldiers, the gift of acres is the foundation of the long run, and it can also attract soldiers to dare to fight to the death.
At the beginning of the signing ceremony, the people in the audience immediately exchanged their heads and talked about it; The mighty soldiers couldn't help but look much more eager. Looking at a pair of eager and envious eyes, Yu Zhilong couldn't help but feel secretly proud. Today's public reward has far more incentive effect on the soldiers than I expected.
"If you can get silver, and then you can get land, this time these meritorious people are making a fortune!" The people in the audience were amazed.
"How much land can you buy with so much silver! Coupled with these land appreciations, even if you go home to cultivate the land and farm, you will not have to worry about it in this life! ”
"You're angry! How could these people give up their military bodies for these small gains! As long as you follow General Fei, how can your future combat exploits be comparable to today? ”
"Little family? If you have the ability, you should try to earn this military merit. Give you three lives, and I will prostrate to you if you can come back alive! ”
"Those who can make great contributions are very people, if I am twenty years younger, maybe I will also go into battle to kill the enemy, and then what kind of pole do you and I raise? Don't be afraid of your mother-in-law's jokes! ”
In this award, Yu Zhilong insisted on adopting the method of public roll call, and demanded that in the future, the army should be rewarded and paid to adopt this method of public roll call, so as to put an end to the possibility of the boss being greedy for ink.
After Sun Xing finished reading, a young woman wearing silk came up below, a team of people holding copper plates, with silver taels of white flowers on them, and a team holding big red flowers woven with red silk.
It is rare to see women in the army, except for military prostitutes, it is strictly forbidden for women to stay overnight in the army. Of course, those who are indisciplined do not count.
These women are women from good families hired by Yu Zhilong from inside and outside the city for today's awards, and each person's salary is calculated according to one or two pieces of silver, and the beautiful clothes on their bodies are still obtained from their own wealth.
In order to choose clothes with the right size and style that are not easy to be too bright, Yu Zhilong really took some effort, and finally asked Yu Lan and other sisters to help them with their hands-on staff, picking, and completely solving it.
If the woman entered the barracks alone, her family would not have agreed to it before. The army is full of strong men, who dares to guarantee that there will be no accidents!
However, the military discipline of Yu Zhilong's department is the strictest in the Shuntian army, and most of the sergeants and soldiers are from the local area and the people who are attached to the army, and the locals are more familiar with each other.
The most attractive thing is that Yu Zhilong promised that all women who do things today will be paid one or two silver!
Being able to enter the barracks and watch the military events is a great attraction for these civilians. What's more, it was rumored that the Jing'an army defeated the Meng army and Tang Wuwei with its own strength, and defeated the Yuan army, laying the foundation for a great victory.
Representatives of the family of the daughter who was recruited were also invited to watch the ceremony. Thousands of people inside and outside the city and the families of soldiers and soldiers also watched from the stage.
With the assurance, and in full view of everyone, the families of these women were relieved to agree to their appearance.
This is no wonder that the woman's family is worried, since ancient times, it has been rumored that there are women in the army who are ominous, and military law also punishes those who bring women into the camp without permission.
In order to make today's reward grand and festive, Yu Zhilong specially consulted Zhao Shi, Mingxiong and other opinions, except for Mingxiong's mention that the woman's entry into the camp was ominous, others did not care too much. Yu Zhilong finally made a decision: That's it! In addition to the strength of the army, this external display and publicity is also a major aspect.
In the past few days, all departments are handing out rewards, and the soldiers of each battalion are beaming, and today Yu Zhilong has told Liu Zhengfeng in advance, but only Qu Bo, Wan Jinhai, Xia Houen and other generals have come to help the fun. Liu Zhengfeng was bedridden for two days to recuperate because of his war wounds, and he was unable to move, so Qu Bo attended instead. Liu Qi and Qin Zhanshan were busy with military affairs and did not shirk it.
After Sun Xing finished speaking, the 100 households in the audience signaled the two teams of women who had been waiting for a long time in the audience to climb the steps according to the process, one team of women used red ribbons to hang the big red flowers woven with red silk on the chests of Wu Side and others, and the other team of women presented copper plates, which were handed over to Wu Side and others according to their personal military merits.
The marching drums under the stage rang out in unison, and the two strings of big red whips that had been placed on both sides of the high platform were also ignited, crackling and deafening. There are more than a dozen people in the first team of opera troupes invited from the city in the green smoke, and at the same time, cymbals, gongs, flutes, and clappers follow in unison, which is very lively for a while! This festive atmosphere is no worse than marrying a girl from a small family!
When will Wu Side and others have this honor, at this time, in the face of the admiration and envy of thousands of soldiers and the people, their hearts are happy.
"This General Wu is so powerful and powerful, it's simply Guan Erye alive! I don't know what a hero is on the battlefield! ”
"The shopkeeper Lao has also made special contributions, and the head of the line who used to be angry when he met people in the city is now raising his eyebrows!"
"I don't know how General Huang Er got it, and what is the injury? To be able to be juxtaposed with these people, it must not be ordinary people, etc. ”
"After this special merit, I was rewarded with so many white flowers, I knew that this was the case, and I also joined the army!"
"You think it's easy! If there is no three, two, three, how dare you go to Liangshan? That's what people bought with their lives! Just your three inches, it's good if you don't die in the chaos! ”
"Don't underestimate people! When I go back, I will sum up with my family, and I will not join the army in two days! When the time comes, you won't be red-eyed! ”
In the twenty-second year of the Yuan Dynasty, the prime ministers of the left and right were in the case of 100 officials: 140 yuan, 15 stones; Six books, seventy-eight runs, eight stones; Daru Huachi in Xia County, 17 Guan, Yin Tong County. Master book, 12 runs. Xie Lin is the Yin of Linqu County, and he has 17 yuan.
In the Song Dynasty, a thousand coins were strung together, which was called consistent. Generally, 1 tael of silver can be exchanged for about 1000~1500 copper coins.
In the first year of the Yuan dynasty, the first banknote was made, which was based on silk. Fifty taels of silver and one thousand taels of silk banknotes, all things straight, and from the silk example. In October of that year, the Zhongtong Yuan Bao banknote was made. There are four of the ten texts: 10, 20, 30, and 50. There are three hundreds: one hundred, two hundred, and five hundred. The second one is to be consistent, and the second is to be consistent. Each has always paid one tael of banknotes, and two runs with one tael of silver.
Hearing that the gains of these people in the first battle far exceeded that of the county Yin Yuecheng, the people who discussed it were hot in their hearts. For the commoners who are accustomed to using money, seventeen taels of silver are the use of the commoners' homes for several years, how to spend these hundred taels, how to spend them, is simply unimaginable!
People who are thinking fast have begun to wonder if the school-age women in the family can have a chance to climb. Especially the people who came from other places are the most active: the shopkeeper Lao is middle-aged, not a good choice for a son-in-law, but the rest of the people are just the right year! Even if you can't be a wife, it seems good to be a concubine.
When I think about it, these people will die on the battlefield one day with blood on their swords, and if their daughter becomes a widow, will she not push her flesh and bones into the fire pit!
But think about it again, wealth and danger seeking, my family is living a good life, the future is boundless, not to mention life and death, at least in this life, if it is not for Linqu to take an adventure, it must be a lifetime of hardship, even so, why not fight again?
This great victory not only greatly boosted everyone's confidence in the future, but also made the Shuntian army, or the Jing'an army, faintly have the strength to compete with the Yuan army.
The people in the audience have all kinds of mentality, some joys and sorrows, but the soldiers and soldiers in the audience are full of enthusiasm and difficult to themselves. Just now, I heard Fang Xue and Sun Xing announce the results of the people with special merits in public, and the soldiers were all convinced. These people rushed to kill in battle, and the people around them witnessed it with their own eyes, and they couldn't fake it, and according to the pre-war regulations, they would be punished and rewarded for their merits. Today's things are righteous!
Later, I saw two teams of women who looked thoughtful, and they came to the stage to hang flowers and offer silver to the awardees, and everyone was hot.
It is a new thing for women from good families to openly enter the camp and participate in the celebration ceremony, not to mention that there are thousands of people watching the excitement, among which there are many family members and relatives of the soldiers, so the clothes of the soldiers of all departments are washed and clean, and the armor is polished.
General Fei said, today, firstly, to celebrate everyone's achievements, and secondly, to show the soldiers of the whole army to the fathers and villagers, and tell everyone: The soldiers of the Jing'an Army are all real heroes! Whoever comes out is a hero!
In addition to the promotion to the military position and the reward of two silver taels, the reward this time also included acres of land deeds and the like. As long as you dare to fight and get military merits, General Fei will not hesitate to reward you!
The direct purpose of everyone joining the army is to survive, not only to survive in the troubled times, but also to take care of their respective families, and if you want to take better care of your family, it is one way to get a reward, and more importantly, to get a land deed!
What made the soldiers even more excited was that General Fei said that there are many more families in Linqu County now, and there are many young and Zhou Zheng's good family women who are unmarried. As long as the other party's parents and the woman agree, General Fei will be a matchmaker, personally come to the door to propose, and then prepare a dowry of six taels of silver for his soldiers, and the landless soldiers can also allocate five acres of land in advance, and repay them with merit in the future.
The bright prospect of having a land and a wife greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of the soldiers, and as long as the Shuntian army could completely establish itself in the future, the family would no longer have to live a life of displacement, hunger and cold.
In a word, whoever has the ability to make military merits can divide the land, give silver, and give priority to marrying a pleasing mother-in-law to go home to the hot kang head!
These women are Ming Shijie and other people who are specially selected in each household to look thoughtful, although they are not the beauty of the country, but in the eyes of the sergeants, they are extremely eye-catching. They are now cleaned up, wearing decent clothes, with a bun on their heads, and then smeared with fat powder, and they are all charming and beautiful from a distance under the bright sun.
After the completion of the special merit award, followed by the first-class merit award, there were more than 40 people, including Ma Rulong, Mingxiong, Yan Wei, Sun Xing, etc.
This was followed by more than 270 second-class merits and 630 third-class merits.
The award-winning soldiers were called in turn, and then formed a team to go to the stage, bringing saffron, receiving silver, and signing the title deed.
The gongs and drums in the audience were noisy, firecrackers rang out, and the onlookers watched the excitement, and gradually the discussion became louder and louder. The sons and daughters of their own families who watched were able to come to the stage to receive credit, and the family members were so happy that they couldn't keep their mouths together, pointing fingers, and boasting.
Qu Bo, Yu Shichang, Wan Jinhai, Xia Houen and others watched the excitement, how could the celebration in the army have been held in such a lively form, they looked at the freshness, saw the army and the people celebrating together, the atmosphere was warm, and secretly regretted it, knowing the effect of such an act, they really shouldn't have rushed to finish the reward there yesterday.
As a big family in the city, Wei Yuanwai was also invited to watch the ceremony today. He was able to stand with everyone, mainly because Wei Yuanwai took the initiative to give a lot of money and grain, and he was a good gentleman in the eyes of Liu Zhengfeng and others.
At this time, Wei Yuanwai had to force a smile and deal with the gentry around him. The defeat of the official army shattered the bubble of his revenge, and looking at the laughter and laughter in the audience, he recognized that some of the soldiers who received the awards were clearly slaves and tenants in his own family. Once upon a time, a lowly person who didn't dare to breathe in front of him could now climb the platform under the watchful eye, wear red flowers, and lead the army! I don't know how many acres of land in those land deeds are the Wei family's generational savings!
Rejoice, one day I will pay it back a hundredfold!
The more joyful the crowd, the more painful Wei Yuanwai became, he felt like torment on the stage, the scorching autumn sun shone on his body, his whole body was hot, and the sound of firecrackers was particularly harsh, and there was no sense of festivity at all. At this time, Wei Yuanwai could only silently recall the discussion with Pan Tou and others the day before yesterday, looking forward to the day when he hated each other.
