In one day, Qin Tian had only recruited twenty-three people in Qinjia Village.

It's not that no one came, there were a lot of people who came, but most of them didn't meet Qin Tian's conditions for recruitment.

The family is an only son, and he can't be a soldier, he is too old to be a soldier, and if he is not in good health, he can't be a soldier, and the most important condition is that Qin Tian requires that these people must be brave and not afraid of death.

If you are timid and afraid of death, then it is better not to be a soldier, such a person is also a mistake when he goes to the battlefield.

Therefore, although there were many people in Qinjia Village, only twenty-three people were recruited in the end.

After these twenty-three people were confirmed, Qin Tian did not stay in Qinjia Village for long, and then went to other places to recruit.

According to this situation, to recruit 5,000 people, they may have to wander around until the end of the year, or even run to the side of most of the Tang Dynasty.

When Qin Tian was recruiting here, Hou Junji and Su Dingfang were also recruiting, and in comparison, their number was relatively large, and their task was heavier than Qin Tian's.

However, judging from the news that Qin Tian heard, Hou Junji and Su Dingfang recruited very quickly, and when Qin Tian recruited a thousand people, they had already recruited five thousand people, and the speed was staggering.

On this day, the cold wind has become more and more solemn, and it has entered November.

Qin Tian took Hu Eighteen and them to continue recruiting troops, and came to a county seat near Luoyang City, Wu County.

When they came here, Su Dingfang actually recruited people here.

When the two entered Wu County with people, they met on the street.

The cold wind was blowing, and both of them shrank their necks into their collars, Su Dingfang glanced at Qin Tian, and then smiled: "I heard that you have only recruited more than 1,000 people, this speed is really slow enough, but don't complete the task until the New Year." ”

Su Dingfang was very disdainful of Qin Tian's speed, because he had already recruited more than half of the people, and by the end of November, he would definitely be able to complete the quota of 10,000 people.

In the face of Su Dingfang's attack, Qin Tian just smiled: "Ben Hou's soldiers and horses, the most expensive is fine, not too many, every soldier, Ben Hou must personally inspect it, and it will only be accepted after confirming that it is qualified, but it is not like General Su, no matter who wants it." ”

Hearing this, Su Dingfang suddenly frowned, this is simply a slander against him, he Su Dingfang has led the troops to fight for many years, can he not know what soldiers are available and what soldiers are not available?

In fact, the conditions for him to recruit soldiers and horses are also very strict, but compared to Qin Tian, it is a little looser.

But when Qin Tian said this, he slandered him a little.

"Hmph, it's useless to say this, the Holy Authority will be assessed in half a year, and then I'll talk about it then, and I'll let you take back today's words."

After saying that, Su Dingfang whipped away, Qin Tian shrugged, and took Hu Shibai and them to start recruiting in Wu County.

Qin Tian's conditions are really very strict, so although many people want to be soldiers, as long as one condition cannot be met, they can't be done, but these people who were rejected by Qin Tian have a great chance of being accepted by Su Dingfang when they go to Su Dingfang.

Of course, there is only a great opportunity, and Su Dingfang is not having a good time here.

Qin Tian naturally knew about Su Dingfang's situation, but in fact, he also intended to anger Su Dingfang.

Since it is a recruitment, it is necessary to recruit the strongest soldiers in Datang, if anyone can be a soldier, I am afraid that he will not be able to train anything, so he has strict requirements on his side, and Su Dingfang has to take good care of it for the sake of face.

In Wu County, Qin Tian didn't stay long, and left with people a day later, and the number of recruits was not much, only about a hundred or so people, relatively speaking, the number of soldiers and horses recruited in other places was about the same.

An ordinary county town, Qin Tian can also Zhao Mu one or two hundred people.

Time passed slowly like this, and soon it was mid-November, Qin Tian was still two thousand away from 5,000 men, and Su Dingfang and Hou Jun had already begun to finish their lives, and they rushed to Chang'an City with soldiers and horses one after another.

For this, the people who followed Qin Tian were a little panicked.

"Master Hou, Su Dingfang and they have basically completed the recruitment, we have only completed more than half of it, we have to hurry."

"Yes, if you don't lower your standards a little, your goal has been achieved anyway."

Qin Tian's purpose is naturally to let Hou Junji and Su Dingfang strictly control them, and now that Qin Tian's goal has indeed been achieved, in this case, it is nothing to lower the standard a little.

However, Qin Tian shook his head: "When it comes to fighting, you can't be negligent, it's better to be more refined." ”

Qin Tian and the others continued to recruit along the way, and on this day, they passed through Hongshan County.

Hongshan County is not very well-known county, and the economy is not particularly good, as far as Qin Tian knows, it seems that something is still going on in the capital, and many people are reluctant to come here as a county magistrate.

Or, even if you come, you still want to leave after a year.

Today's county magistrate of Hongshan County is called Luo Qiang, a middle-aged man in his forties, the reason why he is a county magistrate here is purely because there is no way to do it, he only became a jinshi in his thirties, his ability is mediocre, and he doesn't want other places, so he can only come here.

After Qin Tian and the others came to Hongshan County, they went directly to the county government and told Luo Qiang about the situation.

Luo Qiang had already learned that the imperial court was going to recruit soldiers, and he didn't dare to refuse Qin Tian's request, so he just smiled bitterly: "Master Hou, I'm afraid the people here don't like to be soldiers very much, and the lower officials will naturally assist the Hou Ye, but if they can recruit it, the lower officials will not dare to pack tickets." ”

"It's okay, Ben Hou has gone to so many places, and he has only recruited about 3,000 people, and he can recruit 100 people from you, so it's fine."

It is difficult to recruit soldiers, Qin Tian naturally will not impose pressure on Luo Qiang, Luo Qiang was relieved when he heard this, with Qin Tian's words, everything would be much easier.

"Master Hou, then let's start tomorrow, it looks like it's going to snow again today, you rest first, I'll let someone arrange it, and you can recruit directly tomorrow."

The weather did start to be gloomy, and they were a little tired after a lot of running, Qin Tian nodded and responded, but at this time, a servant suddenly ran in in a hurry: "My lord, it's not good, the people of those villages are fighting again, this is ...... That's a good thing. ”

"What, fighting again?" Luo Qiang's face was ugly, and he was a little uneasy, he was afraid that he couldn't hide this little family matter, and Qin Tianke was next to him.

Helpless, Luo Qiang smiled bitterly at Qin Tian and said, "Master Hou, I'm afraid that the lower officials can't accompany you, something happened in the county." ”

Qin Tian was curious and asked, "Lord Luo, what the hell is going on?" ”

"Master Hou, this is ...... It's hard to say, I'm afraid it's hard to say......"
