The Dayuan Port Wharf finally arrived, and as soon as the flagship docked, Zhang Bin couldn't wait to run down and go straight to the Dayuan City Governor's Mansion with a group of guards.

He just wants to see his children as soon as possible now, and he doesn't have the heart to take care of other things, of course, he doesn't need to take care of the captives at all, with Qi Yuangong here, he will naturally arrange it for him properly.

There were already more than 10 large wharves at Dayuangang at this time, and it was not a problem to dock the entire fleet at one time, and after Zhang Bin landed on the shore, the remaining Zhenyuan cruisers and wheels docked one after another, and the peasant prisoners were escorted off the ship one by one.

These peasant army prisoners have undergone a simple reorganization, divided into thousands of squads, each team is twelve people, guarded by four Qi family army soldiers, after getting off the boat, they were driven to the port next to the east fan in the avant-garde station, more than ten wharves suddenly appeared more than ten long lines, Qi family army soldiers escort the peasant army prisoners continue to the east of the vanguard gathering, the scene is extremely spectacular.

Li Dingguo looked at all this in front of him in amazement, is this the legendary Fuguang?

This place is really rich, not to mention the majestic fortress, not to mention the huge city, just say this port, the big one is unimaginable, more than two hundred ships actually stopped in at one time, building so many wharves is definitely not full of food, the number of warships in Fuguang must be terrifying!

There is also the city in front of him, he has also followed the peasant army to conquer a lot of cities, whether it is the county seat, the state city, the government city is not as majestic as the city in front of him, this city wall is two zhang high, the towers are numerous, there are many artillery, it is no different from a fortress, in his "professional" view, although this city is only as big as an ordinary small county town, the peasant army wants to conquer, I am afraid that there are not enough 100,000 people.

When he entered the city, he was even more shocked.

He thought that the city should be the same as an ordinary small county town, full of low bungalows and vertical and horizontal streets, but when he came in, it was not like this at all, there were no bungalows in it at all, all neat buildings, and there were very few streets, crisscrossing a total of several streets, there were no shops and houses on the streets, all flowers and trees, and there were no civilians at all, all officers and soldiers wearing uniform uniforms!

He gradually understood that this was not an ordinary city at all, but a huge military camp!

Driven by the soldiers of the Qi family, they soon came to a huge school field, which was enough to accommodate thousands of people, and at this time there were not many officers and soldiers here, a total of three or four hundred, and most of them were lined up on the periphery of the school field, there were more than 20 officers and soldiers in the school field, and they all sat behind a row of tables at the front with brushes, and only a general wearing chain mail stood majestically in front of the table.

He was looking at all this in amazement, and the soldiers of the Qi family army who were escorting them suddenly shouted: "Queue, queue, twelve people in a column, fifty columns in each row, hurry, hurry." ”

There was nothing difficult in lining up, they had gone through simple drills in the peasant army, and they practiced this every day on the ship for the past four days, and soon, everyone was lined up in a neat line, and the soldiers of the Qi family army who were guarding them were lined up in a huge box on the periphery, and they were all framed inside.

It seems that there are more than them on the school field, and there are many squads in the back one after another, and after about a quarter of an hour, the shouting of the soldiers of the Qi family army slowly subsided, and then, a general flag of the Qi family army quickly came to the general of the Ming army, and saluted: "Lord Qi Qianhu, one thousand and eight civilians in the northwest are here." ”

The Qianhu nodded, waved him to the side, and then stepped forward and said loudly: "Everyone, welcome to join the Eastern Fan Central Avant-garde Zhongzuo Institute, I am the Zhongzuo Thousand Households Xie Hui, first of all, I want to tell you a good news, the Governor has an order, no matter what your identity was before, you are not guilty of the past, from today onwards, you are all the military households of the Eastern Fan Nine Guards!" ”

As soon as he said this, all the peasant army prisoners showed a surprised expression, one moment ago they were still anti-thieves, but at this moment they all became officers and soldiers!

They are not some of the most vicious people, and the rebellion is just a helpless move, everyone knows that the rebellion is to kill the head, after being captured, most of them think that they are afraid that they will be dragged out and cut down, even if someone said at the beginning of the departure that they will be sent to Fuguang to live a normal life, most of them are still apprehensive, who knows whether the officers and soldiers are deceiving.

There is a Yansui governor Hong Chengchou in Shaanxi who is notoriously shameless, every time he lies to everyone that he will not blame the past if he puts down his arms, and as a result, as soon as everyone puts down his weapons and lets the officers and soldiers tie up, he immediately turns his face and kills people!

At first, they really didn't know if the Governor of Fuguang liked to deceive people with Hong Chengchou, the governor of Yansui, but after coming all the way, they already believed a little that if the Governor of Fuguang wanted to kill them, there was no need to waste so much food, let alone give them meat to eat.

On the way, they were already full of yearning for Fuguang's life, but they were a little worried about whether they were pulled over as cattle, and it was not until this moment that they completely relaxed their hearts, because there was no need for these officers and soldiers to lie to them, even if they were asked to farm and pay rent immediately, they would not resist, so why lie to them and say that everyone is a military household, it is completely unnecessary.

Looking at the surprised expressions of these people, Xie Hui breathed a sigh of relief, he was also afraid that these anti-thieves would be unruly, and now it seems that these people should not think about rebellion anymore.

He continued to say aloud: "The military households of our Dongfanwei are different from the military households in other places, and there are two kinds of military households in Dongfanjiuwei, one is the tunwei and the other is the soldiers. The full-time tuntian guard only needs to practice regularly, and there is no need to fight, that is to say, the military department will not send you to fight, you just need to participate in the drill on time. The soldiers are specially designed for fighting, and they usually practice here, without farming, and once they are about to fight, they will immediately go to the battlefield! ”

As soon as he said this, everyone showed a surprised expression again, there are two kinds of tunwei, I haven't heard of it, some of them are tunwei military households, usually they have to farm, but also accept the exploitation of hundreds of households, thousands of households and commanders, help them farm, once the war must also be drawn to participate in the war, there is no freedom at all, so, many people escaped, did not escape, this time it is almost all reversed!

This Dongfan Jiuwei even has a tunwei military household that specializes in farming and does not need to fight, does Daming have this kind of tunwei?

Daming naturally does not have this kind of guard, this is unique to the East Fan Jiuwei, in the future, Zhang Bin may find a way to change all the guards in the Ming Dynasty to be like this, but now there is no such guard in other places.

Xie Hui continued to say aloud: "The full-time tuntian guards don't have to fight, so they must pay the field tax, but they are exempted from conscription, and participating in drills is considered conscription. Soldiers who fight full-time wars do not have fields, but they have salaries, and moreover, the salaries are divided into grades: first-class soldiers, one stone and three taels of food per month, second-class soldiers, one stone and two taels of food per month, and third-class soldiers, one stone and one tael of food per month. Of course, once you become an officer, the salary is more, it depends on your ability, you can apply for the assessment at any time, as long as you meet the requirements, you can be a small flag, a general flag, a general flag, a thousand generals! ”

As soon as he said this, many people below couldn't help but want to be soldiers, and a stone of food and a tael of food every month was a great income for them, not to mention that there was a higher one in the back.

Of course, there are also those who want to be a tun guard tuntian, as long as they pay the land endowment, they don't have to serve forced labor, which is better than being a farmer, where to find this kind of good thing.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Hui continued: "You can all choose to be an ordinary guard or choose to be a soldier, if you choose to be a guard, you can register to farm immediately, if you choose to be a soldier, you must pass the test." I emphasize one point here, the soldiers of the East Fan Jiuwei are not the guards or border soldiers you see, we have very strict requirements for the soldiers, we will conduct tests every month, test the promotion of excellence, and the demotion of those who fail to pass the test, if the third-class soldiers fail the test, they will be transferred directly to the guards, if you want to be a soldier, you can't be lazy and slippery, if you want to be lazy and slippery, you should go to be a guard as soon as possible. ”

As soon as he said this, some people immediately showed disappointed expressions, indeed, some of these people want to be lazy and slippery, and the peasant army has not developed much after so many years is because many people have the idea of being a monk for a day and hitting the clock for a day, and they are messing around.

This vice is especially prevalent among foot soldiers, and if they are really so active, many people still have a chance to be cavalry, and it is precisely because many people want to mess around that they are foot soldiers, not cavalrymen.

Many people think that as long as they pass the test and become a soldier, everything will be worry-free, one stone of food and one tael per month is enough, even if they can only be a third-class soldier for a lifetime, they can also have no worries about food and clothing, but they didn't expect that this soldier still has the idea of elimination!

Xie Hui glanced around majestically, and then continued: "I'll talk about this first, now, start testing and registration, if you want to be an ordinary guard, you will take turns to register according to the current formation; Those who wanted to be soldiers immediately went out of the line and ran ten laps around the edge of the white line on the periphery of the school field. If you can't run, or you haven't finished an hour, then you can honestly become a guard, or come back to the test later. ”

Such a huge school field, a lap is at least two or three miles, run ten laps, that is twenty or thirty miles, many guys who want to be lazy and slippery are scared to shrink their heads, twenty or thirty miles to run in an hour, this does not cost human life, the last time they marched in a hurry, only ran twenty miles, many people cramped and fell to the ground, how can ordinary people run so far at a time!

Most of the people chose to go forward to register honestly, and some people chose to participate in the test, and soon, there were more than 300 young men running around the school field, Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, these little guys actually participated in the test!

The registration on the school field is carried out very quickly, because these people just have to report their names, ages and places of origin, and there is nothing else to register, after the registration, someone will reorganize them, and then gather together, under the "escort" of the soldiers of the Qi family, rush to the Tuntian site, so there are fewer and fewer people on the school field, less and less, and after almost half an hour, there are less than half of the people left on the school field.

At this time, Li Dingguo had already finished running, the reason why he was able to run so quickly was not because of how many exercises he had carried out in the peasant army, he was so young, Zhang Xianzhong could not catch him and practice hard, usually, they were just practicing martial arts, running hard like this, unless it was a rapid march, there were not many times when the peasant army was rushing to march, so he did not run a few times.

The reason why he was able to run so quickly can only be said to be natural, because he was born to be a fierce general!

He was holding his knees, standing there panting with his waist bent, when Qianhu Xie Hui suddenly appeared in front of him, patted him on the shoulder, and asked in surprise: "Little guy, how old are you?" ”

Li Dingguo hurriedly stood up straight and gasped: "My lord, I am fourteen years old this year. ”

In fact, he was less than fourteen years old at this time, and he was afraid that people would think he was young and not let him be a soldier, so he said this.

It's rare to be so fierce at the age of fourteen, this is a good seedling, Xie Hui has already developed a strong interest in this little guy, he even took him to register in person, and chatted with him about family life.

Chatting and chatting, Xie Hui is not calm, this little guy has even read!

In disbelief, he ordered someone to get a pen and paper and asked Li Dingguo to write something casually, and Li Dingguo immediately wrote a paragraph of Sun Tzu's Art of War, the font was extremely neat, and not a word was wrong!

There are such characters among the thieves, Xie Hui couldn't help but be surprised, and what surprised him even more was that it was still behind, soon, Sun Kewang, Liu Wenxiu, Feng Shuangli and others all ran away, these people were less than twenty at a glance, but they were all quite good in physical fitness, and they had all read!

An hour later, everyone ran away, and everyone else was registered and taken away, these people are worthy of being thieves on the battlefield, and there are quite a lot of people who have passed the soldier test, and more than 350 people out of more than 1,000 people have passed the test, and the proportion has reached nearly 20%.

This is still voluntary, some people may be disgusted with fighting and don't want to be soldiers, so they didn't participate in the test at all, and directly chose to be an ordinary guard, if the test is forced, it is estimated that the proportion can reach at least 30%.

However, at this time, Xie Hui had no time to think about this, because he found a bunch of good seedlings, Li Dingguo, Sun Kewang, Liu Wenxiu, Feng Shuangli and others are not ordinary people, they not only passed the test, but also read military books, it is a pity to be an ordinary soldier.

Xie Hui thought about it for a while, and simply handed over the matter of placing other soldiers to his two deputy thousand households, and he took these young men and walked directly to the command envoy yamen in the middle of the city.

He felt that he had to talk to the commander Zhang Guan about this, because Dongfan Jiuwei attaches great importance to the training of generals at all levels, like these, who are not very old, have good physical fitness, are good at reading, and have studied the art of war, they will generally be trained in the direction of generals, generals, guerrilla generals, and even generals.

However, these people used to be thieves, whether they should be cultivated, how they should be cultivated, and he couldn't be the master, so he could only ask Zhang Guan.
