Chapter 35: The Giving of Names
"Rentian, starting with you, choose the slaves you want, remember that the growth of slaves has a lot to do with your own promotion, that is, if you have the ability to convert all five of your slaves into privates, you will have the opportunity to be promoted to non-commissioned officers, and in the same way, if you convert all five of your privates into soldiers, you will have the opportunity to be promoted to lieutenant, if only one or several of them are converted to privates or are still slaves, they will not be promoted.
Your slaves are to be strictly controlled, but at the same time, they are to be given the best food so that they can grow faster when they are trained. After reading out the decision, Yang Wenli turned his head and ordered Yang Rentian, who was standing beside him.
"Yes," Yang Rentian said with a chest punch.
Yang Rentian and his young family members are the descendants of Yang Wenli's personal training, and they also know the Yang family's selection of war techniques created by Yang Wenli, they will choose those bandits with thick bones and tall stature, as for their conduct, those bandits who are unruly and full of lies have already been killed, and the rest of the people can still be cultivated.
The promotion of the slaves that Yang Wenli just mentioned has something to do with their own promotion, which is actually his examination of whether these family members have the ability to train and lead these slaves.
These slaves will basically be promoted to soldiers or non-commissioned officers in the future, unless they die on the battlefield, where will their soldiers come from?
Yang Wenli is not an official, he is just a civilian, and he does not have the appeal of raising his arms and shouting, so his military resources all rely on captured bandits, at least for now, bandits also have advantages, at least they are more courageous than ordinary people, similar to the hooligans of later generations. As for whether the bandits will resist or disobey, Yang Wenli said that it is very simple, he is the one who specializes in all kinds of disobedience.
In troubled times, it is impossible to be gentle and elegant, there must be appropriate violence, who obeys, lives, who disobeys, dies, those who obey me live, those who oppose me die, and that's it.
"You, you, you, you, and you" Yang Rentian and his group of young family members selected slaves according to their age, there were only ten people in total, and it didn't take too long, and they were selected after a quarter of an hour.
Then they used the selected slaves to manage the remaining one hundred and fifty bandits. The creation of classes within the bandits so that they would not be grouped together was a very effective method of management, and the prisons of later generations adopted this method.
"Renyue, go to the cave and call Uncle Zhao, we're going to Happy Valley." After the family members were busy, Yang Wenli summoned Yang Renyue and asked him to call Zhao Laosi.
"Yes," Yang Renyue saluted, then turned around and ran to the cave where they had stayed last night.
Yang Wenli and they went out to fight bandits, Zhao Laosi was hiding in the cave and was scared to death, he was an ordinary person after all, and his force value was zero. After such a long time, Yang Wenli and the others did not return, the more he thought about it, the more afraid he became, for fear that the bandits would rush to the cave to arrest him.
At this time, he heard someone outside the cave calling him "Fourth Uncle Zhao", so he dared to walk out of the cave tremblingly.
"Renyue, how's the situation? What about the young master? ”
Zhao Laosi saw that only Yang Renyue came back, so he asked him with a frightened face.
"Fourth Uncle Zhao, don't be afraid, the bandits have been defeated by us, we have captured two hundred bandits, the young master wants me to call you, we are going to the bandit Lao Paomaling."
Yang Renyue wanted to laugh when she saw Zhao Laosi's frightened look, he smiled and comforted him, and told him the reason for his return.
"What? Two hundred? You dare to fight so many bandits! Zhao Laosi thought that he had heard it wrong, and he stared at Yang Renyue with big eyes and didn't dare to believe it directly.
"Huh! Two hundred bandits are two thousand, and we will destroy them in the same way. Yang Renyue said wildly.
But it is undeniable that they are indeed extraordinary, they can capture two hundred bandits, and there are only eleven people themselves, and none of them are injured. Therefore, Zhao Laosi wanted to laugh at his words, but he could only swallow them back into his mouth.
After Yang Renyue took Zhao Laosi back to Yang Wenli's side to resume his life, Zhao Laosi looked at the bandits kneeling on the ground and was stunned, he really captured so many bandits???
Zhao Laosi's head was full of question marks, and he almost crashed, he didn't understand how Young Master Li did it?
"Fourth Uncle Zhao, after interrogation, we know that the old bandit is in Happy Valley, and we are going to go there." Yang Wenli restated the reason for calling him.
"Okay, I'm fine, it's just these bandits, what are you going to do?" Zhao Laosi agreed without hesitation, but he asked another question that he was very concerned about.
"I've relegated them all to slavery," Yang replied lightly. But I don't want to think about it, how can he be qualified to do this as a civilian?
Yang Wenli's true intentions were never revealed to Zhao Laosi, so Zhao Laosi didn't know that Yang Wenli had the heart to win the world. So he just said vaguely: "Young Master Li, this doesn't seem appropriate!" ”
"Hahaha! What's wrong, now that these bandits are already my slaves, who would dare to interfere? Yang Wenli said proudly.
Now Zhao Laosi is not easy to answer, Yang Wenli's words are very rebellious, and he doesn't take the government in his eyes at all, how can he answer?
"Rentian, arrange for someone to bury the dead bandits, confiscate their weapons, load them in chicken carts, and target Happy Valley."
Yang Wenli didn't wait for Zhao Laosi to answer, so he turned his head and ordered Yang Rentiandao, who was standing beside him.
"Yes" Yang Rentian stood up with a loud snort, beat his chest with his right hand and saluted, and then went to carry out the order.
This time was different from the battle of the Spear Mountain to exterminate the river bandits, and there was a lot of free labor, so the ten young family members only had to be responsible for supervising it from afar.
The smell of dead bodies was very bad, and these young men almost wanted to vomit even if they were far away, but they could only endure it, and they could not lose their majesty in front of the bandits.
……
"They are now your slaves, all the previous names are invalid, the unified surname is Yang, the Yizi generation, and the names are selected from the thousand-character Wenying characters, and they are called according to their age: Yang Yiying, Yang Yihan, Yang Yichen, Yang Yisu, Yang Yilie. The rest of the people are like that, and so on. Yang Wenli said to Yang Rentian and his five slaves.
"Yes" "Thank you, sir...... Yang Rentian and his five slaves replied one after another.
"Don't call me an adult, I'm not an official master, call me a big boss" Yang Wenli waved his hand, like a great man, and ordered several of Yang Rentian's slaves.
"Yes, thank you." A few of the slaves immediately thanked them again.
The surname is Yang, and according to the ranking of the class, only the fifty selected slaves are eligible, and the remaining one hundred and fifty ordinary slaves do not have this honor. This indicates that these fifty people will achieve higher achievements in the future, and they are the descendants of Yang Wenli.
"Set off, the goal is Happy Valley." An hour later, Yang Wenli saw that the bandit slaves had finished burying the corpses and loaded all the weapons in chicken carts, so he shouted orders to his subordinates and all the slaves present.
