Chapter 171: Pulling Out Something Scares You to Death
Yang Xin played the role of a hidden wolf in the flock in Nanchang, and at the same time searched for the thugs he needed in the surrounding states and counties, and it was not until the second year, that is, the first month of the first year of the Apocalypse, that he finally ended his recruitment.
Anqing.
South Shore Yanqi Wharf.
"Uncle!"
Yang Huan saluted Yang Xin, who got off the boat, and said.
He and the six Jinyi guards were sent by Yang Xin in Fengyang to make the necessary preparations for this guy's secret plan, and he was also responsible for the resettlement of those shanty people who came downstream......
"How many came?"
Yang Xin said.
"Back to Uncle, a total of one thousand five hundred and twenty-four people have arrived, including one hundred and thirty-two who are not within the scope of recruitment but have come along, and the actual number is one hundred and eight less than what you originally said."
Yang Huan said.
It was sent to these young people, after all, most of them don't know the road, and they don't even understand the language outside, and these villages have people who are specially responsible for running outside, after all, they have to sell mountain goods, these people know how to get to Anqing and can communicate with the official language, so they must be responsible for leading. At the same time, it is also necessary to see the real purpose of Yang Xin's side first, mainly to see if it is possible for him to fulfill the promise of two taels a month, if he is a liar, they have to take the young men in these villages and flee back.
And this time, Yang Xin recruited a total of 1,500 people.
One hundred and eight less.
"Go back and settle accounts with them!"
Yang Xin said.
If you want to hack his money, it is absolutely not okay, first deal with the affairs of Nanjing, and then let these soldiers who originally came out of the mountains go back to clean up these cheats on his silver.
It's time to train the soldiers.
There is no need to show mercy to these squatters.
Because once they can't eat, when they go out and sweep the surrounding flat land like locusts, they do all kinds of evil, and they slaughter villages without mercy, and there are records of cannibalism. And Yang Xin's future plan is to recruit shanty people as soldiers, turn the obedient ones into his own subordinates, and even let them go back and bring everyone out of the village to form his own manor. But for those stubborn guys, these shack people are also responsible for cleaning them up, and since they can't come out if they can't be recruited with money, they will die inside!
Yang Huan didn't speak, and then walked towards their settlement with Yang Xin......
"This is the Inspection Division, right?"
Yang Xin stood at the settlement and looked at the gate in front of him in amazement.
It's a barracks, to be precise, surrounded by low walls with soldiers patrolling.
"Uncle, there is no suitable mansion to rent in Yanqi Town, these people have no road guides, so it is indispensable to do some Yanqi inspection, and my nephew simply gives him more, so that the inspection will place them directly here."
Yang Huan said with a smile.
"Rent the Inspection Division? You are very creative, so you are not afraid of accidents? ”
Yang Xin couldn't help but marvel at his brain hole.
"My uncle didn't know about it, and my nephew told the inspector that these people were coaxed out to dig coal.
In recent years, the coal mining owners have recruited people in this way, and they rarely really spend money to hire them, let alone this kind of coaxing of displaced people, or it is very common to hire people to kidnap tickets and stuff them. I said that we found a big mine in Huaibei, and no one had to come here to coax anyone to dig coal, so the inspection has money to take and don't care about this, in fact, we rent his inspection department He is more at ease. After all, he still has hundreds of soldiers watching here, so he doesn't have to worry about these people going out to make trouble in the place, and he doesn't have to worry about more than a thousand strong men gathering together. ”
Yang Huan said.
Well, in an age when state-run printing houses can print leaflets for thieves, this kind of thing is not too absurd to think about.
Yang Xin walked in with emotion.
The soldiers guarding in front of the door also greeted Yang Huan warmly.
And inside are strong men gathered in threes and threes, one by one, it can be seen that they are full of food and drink, bored in the warm sun, and a few are fighting, because of different sources, these people have a chaotic language, basically Hunan, Jiangxi, Fujian and even Guangxi accents, and they generally form their own gangs with language. However, Yang Xin's appearance still made everyone quickly quiet down, and they all stood up and looked at him with fearful eyes, I have to say that people who have seen him pretend to be forced are usually much more sensible.
"Master Yang, you didn't say that you would keep us as prisoners."
A middle-aged man who understood official language stepped forward and said dissatisfiedly.
"Didn't he feed you?"
Yang Xin said.
The middle-aged man looked at Yang Huan......
"We're full, but what's the matter if we are locked up and not allowed out."
He said.
"What am I talking about? I'll take care of food and shelter, give you two taels of silver a month, and then you have to do whatever I tell you to do, not to mention that you are honestly locked up, even if you want to die, you have to go! You, get up, walk to the city wall, jump down, and if you are injured, I will count you as injured for me, according to the previous agreement, I will treat you and count your meritorious service and then be promoted and raised, and give your family a hundred taels if you die. ”
Yang Xin pointed to a young man behind him and said.
The man was at a loss.
Next to him should be the person he led the team to relay in Hengyang dialect.
"Disobey the order, take out those five taels and get out!"
Yang Xin Hengyang shouted.
The man hesitated to look at the wall, and finally gritted his teeth and shouted, rushed straight up and jumped down......
"Promote him to captain, four taels a month."
Yang Xin said to Yang Huan.
The man got up from the ground in a daze.
Just nodded his head, and he couldn't kill anyone.
These people are mountain people, who grew up in the mountains and forests, and have a lot of experience in jumping from heights.
The leader of the team hurriedly told him the good news, and the man immediately cheered excitedly, and the other leaders who led the team also explained the matter to their own people in their own languages, and those young people talked about it, and the middle-aged man in front of Yang Xin retreated. In the official office in front, the inspector walked out with a few officers under him, surrounded by a green-robed civil official, looking at the scene in front of him with some doubts, Yang Huan immediately greeted them, but Yang Xin didn't care about them, but looked at these young men who were still in chaos.
"The leaders of each team are all lined up and standing, and the teams that can understand each other get together, and those who want to make money are obedient."
He shouted.
Those who led the team hurriedly greeted their own people.
A leader with his own people behind the team, more than 100 teams lined up in a mess on the school field of the inspection department, and then put together those who could understand each other's language, and soon more than 1,500 people formed more than a dozen small squares, which was the maximum ability to understand each other's language. The shanty people on the border of Hunan and Jiangxi come from most of the Ming Dynasty, not to mention the two provinces of Hunan and Jiangxi, the southern Zhili of the periphery, Fujian, Guangdong and Guizhou, and even the north.
"The leaders are all stayed, each team elects its own captain, whatever your own way, you can fight it with your fists, the captain is four taels a month, and the interpreter who leads the team is also four taels a month, and those who can understand each other are considered a battalion, and then choose the battalion commander after the captain is elected, and the battalion commander is ten taels. And send down all their clothes, throw away all the clothes on their bodies, are their weapons ready? ”
Yang Xin asked Yang Huan.
"Uncle, according to your orders, they are all crossbows and Zhangba spears and Yanling knives, but the armor or anything is not available for the time being, but it can be called at any time."
Yang Huan said.
What these shack dwellers are best at is crossbows.
It's just that the mountain people are simple because of their ugliness, tied with multiple layers of bamboo, and the actual power is even more than the bow and arrow, which is the most popular weapon among the people, so the most suitable weapon for them is the crossbow, and they will not use anything else at this time, but the crossbow is as familiar to them as the bow of Jiannu, plus the Zhangba spear and knife, it is basically enough to be regarded as a decent army, as for the guns or anything that is not needed for the time being, their main task is to arrest people and raid their homes.
It was impossible for the Donglin Party to really incite the army to rebel.
The generals of the army will definitely watch from the sidelines in this struggle, and even make some small moves for the sake of silver, but it is impossible to really rebel, and the interception and killing of bandits under the pretense of Qingliuguan is the limit of what the army can participate, so this 1,500 people's army is similar to the role of the internal guard gendarmerie, and the force required is only to ensure that it can deal with the popular rebellion instigated by the gentry.
"Bold, are you going to rebel?"
The civil servant shouted.
At this time, no matter how dull it is, it will be found that something is wrong.
The inspector immediately shouted, and the soldiers on both sides of the city wall were confused, but they still aimed their bows and arrows and even their guns below......
"Show the sign!"
Yang Xin said.
Yang Huan immediately took out his tooth card.
"Han Inspector, the case of your bribery has been issued, but you can rest assured, just rush to the friendship between the two of us these days, and my brother will also ask the brothers in the edict prison to be merciful to your subordinates, and when you arrive at the edict, you will report to my brother and my number, saying that Yang Huan, who is a hundred households in Beiya, is a brother to you."
He said grimly to the inspection.
The inspector shuddered, rushed to this side without hesitation, and then as the distance narrowed, his legs became softer and softer, and cold sweat began to break out on his face, and as soon as he reached Yang Huan's less than five meters, he looked directly at the words on the tooth card, and fell to the ground as if the bones on his knees were suddenly gone......
"Yang, Yang, Brother Yang, no, Master Yang, it's me who has eyes and doesn't know nobles!"
He wailed.
There was silence throughout the school grounds and the surrounding walls.
Yang Xin stretched out his hand and hooked his finger at the civil official, who was pale and trembling and walked towards him, obviously this was less than ten zhang away, and it was extremely difficult for him to walk, but after all, he still walked to Yang Xin's side in a cold sweat in countless eyes......
"There's a flying fish suit in there, and a waist card for the governor of the rear army, can you please take it out for me?"
Yang Xin pointed to his package on the ground and said with a pleasant face.
The green-robed officer fell backwards suddenly......
He fainted.
