Chapter 406: Soldiers
"Zhang Chunniu is this shit, I said he ran away early, what did he do!" Lu Dafu scolded: "How dangerous it is to go to the battlefield, if you are not careful, you will lose your life, he dares to coax you like this, I will settle accounts with him." ”
Lu Dadao: "What are you afraid of?" If you die, you can still earn a lot of money for burning and burying silver, and people say that the soldiers of the merchant group died on the battlefield and the creation of a family! ”
Lu San also said dissatisfiedly: "Second brother, aren't you also a soldier and eat food, and you mix so well, how can you see that I died on the battlefield!" ”
Lu Sidao: "That's it, I'm sixteen, the third brother is seventeen, and people just accept us." ”
Lu Dafu said: "Zhang Chunniu coaxed you, the minimum age is eighteen, and the longest cannot be more than thirty-five." ”
Lu Si smiled: "The second brother still doesn't know if he is in love?" This round has a minimum of sixteen and a maximum of forty! ”
Lu Dadao: "Let's go, follow me to Chunniu's house, there are recruits, you will know when you get there." ”
Lu Dafu said angrily: "Just go, he coaxes you, I will settle accounts with him in person." ”
Lu Dafu doesn't know Zhang Chunniu's recent movements, but Zhang Chunniu was the deputy officer before, and now Lu Dafu is already the captain of the flag, and the official rank is very different, so Lu Dafu naturally has a lot of confidence in speaking.
The four brothers quit their father and mother and went to Zhang Chunniu's house.
Across an alley, it's a blink of an eye.
Zhang Chunniu's house has already crowded a yard of people, and many of them are carrying dim sum boxes in their hands, with snacks such as sugar cakes in them, which are not worth much, but if it was a year or two ago, I am afraid that people may not be able to prepare it.
"Don't worry, I've made it clear." Zhang Chunniu also wears the same gray military robe as Lu Dafu, with two rows of copper buckles on the chest, the hem is not very long, the robe style is more compact, and the arrow robe is different, and the style is more beautiful, but Lu Dafu has red pants on his legs and boots, while Zhang Chunniu is gray pants with boots.
What the two have in common is that they both have name tags on their chests, bronze medals on either side of their shoulders, and a pattern of a military flag on them.
"Chunniu," Lu Dafu smiled happily and scolded at a glance: "You are also the flag captain on the dog day." ”
"Why did you just come back!"
Zhang Chunniu ran over, and the two men hugged each other, patted each other's shoulders, and laughed together.
There were dozens of people in a courtyard, all looking at these two people with awe-struck eyes, the merchant soldiers were much more elite than the officers and soldiers in people's hearts, and they were more respected, and those who could become officers in the merchant soldiers were not ordinary people.
Lu Da Lu San Lu Si was the same as others, putting his hands in his cuffs and watching from the side, Lu Da said to his two younger brothers: "No matter what, I must also be a soldier." ”
"Me too."
"What the second brother said doesn't work, I must go."
Zhang Chunniu greeted Lu Dafu and explained to him: "I am now transferred to the barracks, and Zhao Shiwen has been transferred over to be our leader. ”
"Him?" Lu Dafu was taken aback and said, "The general is in charge of the soldiers? ”
"Hmm!" Zhang Chunniu smiled and said: "Anyway, we are also from the Bird Gun Flag Team, if it weren't for the attention from above, we wouldn't be able to go to the barracks even if we were killed, and the captain of the flag raising would not be able to." Later, I heard that the barracks were going to be set up in a big way, and the general manager of the company was also transferred, so I agreed to transfer away. Many people don't know about this, but our batch is the most advanced candidate. ”
Lu Dafu said: "Why do you want to engage in a big army? ”
"I don't know." Zhang Chunniu said: "The baggage was originally under the management of the Logistics Bureau, but now it has been changed to cooperate with the Logistics Bureau in peacetime, and accept the instructions of the Military Command Department and the chief general in wartime. ”
Lu Dafu's mouth was open, and he was speechless for a while.
Zhang Han's subordinates first used the name of the inspection department, and then the civilian group training established by the merchant groups in various places, and generally speaking, none of the divisions was in the name of a serious border army.
These titles, including the general manager, the hundred general, and the flag captain, are all used in the customs of the border army, which also makes it easy for people to accept, but in fact, they are two different things from the serious Ming border army.
However, commanding three thousand people in four divisions, this is a real battalion officer, Lu Dafu They have always felt that Liang Xing and Wang Changfu are considered battalion officers, and they are guessing together about the third candidate for senior military attache who is qualified to be a battalion officer, and everyone is guessing in Li Laibin and Li Zhiye, Yang Sisun and others, at least Duo'er and Wang Yikui and others, but it is actually Zhao Shiwen.
Lu Dafu thought for a while and said, "Siguan Zhao is a person who can do practical things and is not afraid of trivialities, so he may be more suitable for commanding the baggage camp." ”
Zhang Chunniu said: "Who knows what the top thinks?" ”
In fact, from the battalion officer to the flag captain like Zhang Chunniu, it shows that the Military Administration Department and the Military Orders Department are very competent when deploying manpower...... They are all very suitable candidates.
The two exchanged a few words, Zhang Chunniu saw that there were more people, and the courtyard was full of men standing or squatting with cuffs cuffed, some big and some small, he cleared his throat and said: "I was ordered to go back to my hometown to recruit people, but this time it is not the soldiers of the Merchants Group, but all the heavy soldiers, our soldiers will not recruit for the time being, if you want to be a soldier, you can go back, and wait for the news, you will always recruit again after a while." ”
A dozen sturdy men shook their heads and walked out with disappointed expressions on their faces.
Zhang Chunniu smiled and looked at everyone: "The baggage soldiers are not soldiers, the main thing is to use tools to do work, whether it is digging ditches or repairing bridges, or building military fort stations, anyway, these are the things." The best thing is to be in the team, follow the big car, load and unload the goods, and don't worry about it, just out of the handle. ”
Lu Daweng said: "Are we still afraid of working hard? ”
Everyone has the same idea, but no one has yet expressed their intention to apply, mainly because everyone is not confident.
Zhang Chunniu said: "You also have to have strength, the soldiers are not as demanding as the soldiers, but don't be weak, don't be disabled, don't be sick, don't want to deceive the past, our military hospital in Lizhuang is famous for hundreds of miles, and those who sign up for recruitment will be checked when they get there, and they will be cleared if they find out, and they will be discussed, and you will have to find a way to come back when the time comes." ”
With that said, some people withdrew from the yard again.
"We will clean up a place in the Chamber of Commerce in Lingqiu City, and move the stone rollers, not only to move, but also to move more than thirty times, and those who don't have this ability will pass."
Lu Da snorted from his nostrils, and his two arms exerted force.
The rest of the men didn't react either...... Men in this year are able to suffer, unless they are congenitally disabled or sick, otherwise, the body that works all year round is very strong, and it is definitely not a problem to move thirty stone rollers.
Of course, this kind of sturdy is also in the case of malnutrition overdraft vitality, many people who do work look at the tendon meat, but the life span is not long, after forty years of physical fitness will decline greatly.
"Okay, that's all the requirements, you have to have the strength, be able to endure hardships, listen to commands, and not be self-righteous. Also, I have to receive some training to fight on the battlefield. Zhang Chunniu Zhengse said: "Soldiers and soldiers, although they are mainly doing work, they also bring a soldier character." Treatment, we are not mainly going to war, there are very few times of danger, our soldiers are now divided into three classes, cavalry and artillery are 228 months, armored infantry is 224 months, bird soldiers are 22 months, combat engineers are 128 months, the baggage soldiers are not considered soldiers, but also worse than combat engineers, the monthly salary is 125, and several sets of military uniforms are issued, of course, they also include food, shelter and medical treatment, if they die, the pension is equal to the soldiers. ”
Lu Da and the others all listened with their eyes lit up...... Of course, the family has additional benefits, can undertake errands, and the generals of the old family will give them additional rewards, including cash and land, but most of the inner Ding is also living with a salary, the advantage is not to be bullied, in addition to the actual amount of silver, there is also food to receive.
The soldiers who only did work and basically did not fight turned out to be about the same as the family in Datong Town, and this amount was already very satisfying.
Zhang Chunniu finally said: "Of course, I don't need to say more about the treatment of our merchant soldiers, what we eat is meat for a meal, and the food of the soldiers is the same as that of the soldiers, and they have to contribute, at least two meals of meat a day, and they are also good to wear, and there are discounts for buying things in grocery stores everywhere and Yusheng with their military status, and they are the same as me if they make meritorious contributions, we are not nepotism there, otherwise how can I have anything to do with Lu Dafu to become the captain of the flag?" ”
There was a "boom" in the yard, as if a hornet's nest had been stabbed, and it was also like a valve had been opened.
Several brothers of the Lu family surrounded Lu Dafu, Lu Dadao: "Second brother, how is it?" ”
Lu Dafu nodded and said: "We march and fight, unlike the border army, we don't pay much attention to the baggage, we pay the most attention to logistics here, this treatment or something, it is definitely not fake." ”
"That's it." Lu Da grinned and said: "Asking me to fight and go into battle to kill the enemy is indeed not this material." Since I was a child, I was not as bold as the second child, but I can do this thing with my strength. ”
Lu Dafu said: "The monthly salary is one or two five, where you almost don't spend money, we are in charge of everything from food to housing to clothing, even knives, dishes and chopsticks, kettles, cups, fire sickles and other things, that is, you don't learn to smoke, smoke pots, tobacco, this thing has to spend your own money." ”
Lu Dalian nodded repeatedly, and said calculatingly: "I want to marry a relative and set up a yard by myself, one or two five a month, ten months fifteen, twenty months and thirty taels, and it is almost enough to work for more than two years." ”
Lu Dafu reminded him: "There is also danger, in the event of an enemy attack, if the soldiers can't take care of it, you will be in danger!" ”
"Don't be afraid!" Lu Dadao: "If you die, you should call your father and mother to enjoy the happiness as soon as possible, and Yusheng's soldiers are expensive when they die, who doesn't know now?" ”
