Chapter 397: Danyang Elite Soldiers
Governor Lin said: "It's ridiculous, the dignified Qingzhou Mansion, the general soldier actually defected. My Yuncheng is not a closed place, even if he Qin Ming escaped to Yuncheng, he can't say that my Jeju regiment took in your rebel generals. ”
"Yes, yes, Lord Lin's lesson is that we just came to catch Qin Ming and Huang Xin, and the two of them have nothing to do with Jeju." Where did Li Sandao dare to say more.
Governor Lin really didn't know if Chao Gai took in Qin Ming and Huang Xin, Chao Gai didn't say, and he didn't ask. But the face of the matter is always to be done, immediately called He Tao and asked him to accompany Li Sandao to Yuncheng.
As soon as He Tao came, he heard that he was going to the Yuncheng military camp to search for Qin Ming, and Huang Xin immediately smiled and said: "Li Observation, I'm afraid your information is wrong, I just heard from the restaurant today that Qin Ming and Huang Xin have fallen into the grass in Mangdang Mountain, Xuzhou, and Fan Rui, the big boss and demon king of the world, let Qin Ming be the second master, Huang Xin is the third master, and the original Li Gon and Xiang Chong are the fourth and fifth masters." ”
When Governor Lin heard this, he said: "This is true, can anyone see it in person?" ”
He Tao said: "I heard it from the restaurant today, and I didn't see it in person." But I can go to the merchant who eats in the restaurant. ”
Lin Zhifu said: "No need, it's hearsay that I want to come, you still take people from Qingzhou to the Yuncheng military camp to search for it, so as not to let others think that our Jeju regiment is training to take in their rebel generals in Qingzhou." ”
He Tao promised and retired. immediately went to Yuncheng with Li Sandao to investigate and collect evidence, without mentioning the results of their investigation.
Let's talk about the affairs of New Jeju Island, the climate of New Jeju Island is warmer than Jeju, and the winter is about minus zero, and the climate is relatively Yiren. In November before the Spring Festival, Zhu Wu took people to Danyang with a huge amount of money, what to do in Danyang, and recruit troops. Recruitment is not casual, and the approval of recruitment procedures is very troublesome, so it can only be said that it recruits guards for the mine.
This area of Danyang is mountainous, with lush mountains and forests, and many wild animals. The common people live in this environment and the living environment is relatively cruel, so they have developed the habit of practicing martial arts. There are no famous teachers in the mountains, and there are no factions, and the martial arts practiced by the mountain people are called sanda, which is called sanda in today's words, but this kind of martial arts sanda without factions is very practical, so Danyang has been producing elite soldiers since the Three Kingdoms period. In the Northern Song Dynasty, although the economy developed, there were frozen bones on the stinky road of Zhumen's wine and meat, and the Danyang Mountains were still very poor, and the only hope for the children in the mountains was to become soldiers, apprentices, and go out to eat.
Zhu Wu led people to Danyang County, and posted a notice from outside an inn outside the city, saying that they would recruit guards from the iron factory, pay seven yuan for settling in, include food, shelter, and medical treatment, and distribute all clothes and shoes. There is a basic salary of 200 wen per month, and the various bonuses can add up to 20 yuan a year.
As soon as the notice was posted, it didn't take long for Ma Lin to come to Zhu Wu's room.
Ma Lin said: "The pot is boiling outside, and some people say that we are liars." ”
Zhu Wu listened: "What's the situation, we didn't lie to anyone." ”
Immediately, Zhu Wu came outside, and he was also surprised when he saw it, there were three or four hundred people.
Zhu Wudao: "What do you think about this recruitment of guards, why do you make a noise that we are liars." ”
A man in his early twenties said: "My name is Zhang Tieshan, I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and I have been a guard for the merchants in the city for several years. ”
Zhu Wu smiled: "That's because you didn't meet a good boss, and you would have made a lot of money when you came to us earlier, but we are here to protect important people, and the request notice also said that you have to dare to play with your life at a critical moment." ”
Zhang Tieshan patted his chest: "What do you play when you don't play with your life as a guard?" Playing is life, and I can really give Qiguan a settlement fee, and I'll be with you now. ”
"Yes, yes, we'll sign up too."
More than 50 people immediately signed up, all of whom were over 16 years old and under 25 years old, and their bodies looked very strong. Ma Lin said: "It's not enough to sign up, you still have to compete." ”
The big guy said: "Who are Danyang people afraid of in the competition." ”
Ma Lin said: "If you don't compete, you can't run, let's run five miles, and then run back, and if you don't fall behind, you'll be qualified." ”
Immediately, Ma Lin took the big guy and ran away, and this run showed that the physical fitness was coming, and the Danyang elite soldiers really lived up to their reputation, and no one was left behind. There is a person with poor health who would rather die of exhaustion than fall behind, and this spirit is commendable.
After coming back, Zhu Wu said: "Everyone come to the inn to register their names and eat by the way." ”
Zhu Wu had already chartered this inn, and the people who cooked it were all his own people, and immediately let go of a mouthful of pigs and a mouthful of sheep. The stew in the big pot is fragrant, the big steamed buns with white noodles are steaming, and everyone throws off their cheeks to eat.
Ma Lin said: "You don't have to rob or fight, you will have this kind of food every day in the future." Come, there is still some wine, but anyone can drink as much as possible. ”
Full of wine and food, everyone touched their stomachs one by one, although they were not drunk, but they were all slightly drunk.
As soon as Zhu Wu stretched out his hand, he asked people to take the money box, which was filled with fine silver, because the copper coins were too heavy, and Zhu Wu came out with all the silver.
Each of them was given seven taels of silver.
This time, everyone was relieved and asked when they would leave.
Zhu Wudao: "There are more guards to be recruited this time, at least three thousand people are needed, we are not familiar with life here, and we need your help." This is your first mission, recruit dozens of people each, and everyone is required to know, over the age of sixteen, under twenty-five. It is best to have practiced martial arts and dare to play with life. For every ten qualified guards recruited, a silver tael will be awarded. ”
Zhang Tieshan said: "Since we are all guards, it is natural to do things for the boss." It's just that the newly recruited people have to pay seven taels of silver for settling-in expenses, otherwise we are all villagers and we are difficult to behave. ”
Zhu Wudao: "Please rest assured about this, as long as the qualified guarantee is issued, you will only be given three days, and we will set off in three days, and those who are late will not wait." ”
The fifty people left, and Ma Lin said, "Will they take the money and not come back?" ”
Zhu Wu said with a smile: "There are three or two who don't get the money back and don't get it in the way, and they don't have to do big things informally, it will definitely have an effect." In order to get the bonus, everyone will definitely recruit a lot of people. ”
Sure enough, as Zhu Wu expected, three days later, there was a sea of people outside the inn. Zhang Tieshan came, his face full of happiness.
"Boss Zhu, I recruited a hundred people, 100% qualified, all of them are practitioners, you look at their fists, their fists are smoothed."
The others also recruited thirty, fifty, and a total of four thousand. Zhu Wu calculated that this was not good, he didn't bring such money here.
Immediately long-distance running, only the top 3,000 were accepted, and the top 3,000 people were selected.
Those who were selected were elated, and those who were not selected were very annoyed. Zhu Wudao: "Don't be sad, we will come back later." This time, I won't let you come in vain, two big steamed buns per person. ”
Zhu Wu was very particular about doing things, and each person was given two white-flour steamed buns. Then he led the team to the canal, Jiao Ting led a hundred soldiers to replace Zhu Wu's team, and then got on the Flying Bird merchant ship, and after ten days of wandering, he arrived at New Jeju Island, and camped in a mountain nest dozens of miles away from New Jeju Port.
As soon as these 3,000 people came, Jiao Ting did not arrange anything for them to do, every morning eggs, millet porridge, rice porridge, sorghum rice porridge, pickles, and white flour steamed buns.
For lunch every day, lamb, pork, and more are all kinds of fish, shrimp, and seasonal fresh vegetables. There are also many staple foods, including white rice, steamed buns, and flatbread.
Every day for dinner, it is lamb, pork, fish, shrimp, and various vegetables.
I ate for seven or eight days in a row, and the big guys got up early to box, boxed at night, and had nothing else to do. Many people couldn't stand it, and some people said: "This boss is too kind, the food is so good, we can't help but help, find someone to ask Camp Commander Jiao, and arrange some work for us." ”
Everyone recommended and pushed, so let Zhang Tieshan be the representative and go to Jiao Ting.
Jiao Ting was studying in the room, and the soldier came to report that Zhang Tieshan had something to do, and Jiao Ting said, "Let him come in." ”
Zhang Tieshan was a little restrained, standing in front of Jiao Ting, his hands and feet were weak.
Jiao Ting said: "Old man, what kind of strength do you look like when you twist and twist." ”
Zhang Tieshan said: "Big guy, let me ask, when will we arrange work for us, won't we get fat by eating like this all day long?" ”
Jiao Ting said: "Our escort team is different, it really has to be killed." The training is also very strict, I see that your physique is not good, so I let you eat well for a few days, so as not to be eliminated during the training, this time the recruitment is only 3,000 people, I don't want anyone to be eliminated, so you eat well for a few more days. ”
In this way, Zhang Tieshan went back and said: "Battalion Commander Jiao said, eat, eat, eat, the task now is to eat, eat strong, don't wait for training to be eliminated." ”
3,000 people have been eating it for half a month, and their weight is obviously rising. Early in the morning, before everyone got up, Jiao Ting led a hundred soldiers.
The whistle blew on the mountain, and the group of people slowly gathered the team.
Jiao Ting said: "From now on, you are a member of the Sharp Knife Guard, I am your commander, called Jiao Ting." There are a hundred old guards, who will be your platoon commanders, and each old guard manages thirty new people, and here you don't ask much, don't say much, the only thing to do is to obey, obey, obey. ”
This group of people is also blinded, and they are still so strict as guards, but then again, the food is so high and the treatment is so good, what are you afraid of being strict.
The most difficult thing for the new escort team is the queue, those seemingly simple things that stand upright, take a break, turn left and right, and stand in a military posture are really grinding, but Jiao Ting is very pleased, this group of newcomers is of high quality, hard-working, hard-working, and obedient. In half a month, almost everyone wore out a pair of cowhide boots, and the queue finally practiced.
The next step is physical fitness, 5 km trail run, 10 km trail run, trench excavation, fortification construction, this is not a problem, all that is needed is to grind.
