Chapter 722: Recruit Liu Feng!

In the late Ming Dynasty, all parts of the Central Plains were "overpopulated" and the people were struggling to make a living, and officials and landlords everywhere regarded the population as a burden. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Everywhere there were hungry people fleeing famine. Obviously, the decay and brutality of the Ming Dynasty government had no way to deal with such a famine, so it could only hold on to the city and wait for time to solve the problem!

And this process of solving the problem is nothing more than waiting for the poor to starve to death.

With the exception of a few prosperous periods of financial abundance, according to traditional Confucian officials, the quickest strategy to deal with famine when there is not enough food to provide is to have a drastic population disappear in a short period of time.

Hehe, even if the so-called Holy Monarch is in the court, it is the same.

Therefore, in ancient times, the common people were really inferior to a horse, or even a dog.

The situation shown by the government at the end of the Ming Dynasty was not only incompetent, but to the point of complete ignorance.

They can be incompetent, but Zhu Zilong can't be incompetent, because this is also his Ming.

Instead of starving to death, they will do everything in their power to get something to eat, or flee to a place where they can eat. You don't care about them, and they will rebel. Mind them, and they will remain the best citizens!

Along the way, Zhu Zilong's attitude of treating displaced people and refugees as important resources made local officials and landlords who regarded the population as a nuisance very welcome.

Even if he failed to compete with Zhu Jiajun, he knew that Zhu Zilong's fiefdom had unlimited purchase of a large number of people, and the price was clearly marked.

These people, when they got home, rolled their eyes and started to think about making money.

As a result, soon, in Zhu Zilong's major fiefdoms, countless officials and landlords from all over the country drove convoys and horse teams to transport the population by deception and forcible methods.

And in the fiefs that received Zhu Zilong's orders, Zhu Zilong's junior officers were all preparing according to this matter.

Whenever a refugee arrives, it will be paid according to the distinction between men, women and children.

The refugees were then provided with hard dry food cakes, which were boiled with water. This food is made from locusts and flour, and some are made from modern military compressed biscuits.

Well, there may be some expired, of course you can't eat the dead, ha!

These things taste too bad to swallow. But to fill your stomach, that's enough!

The next thing is that the personnel and recruits of the logistics department of the Zhu family army in the fiefdom will ask these refugees to "purify": first shave their heads, then take a bath, then issue new clothes, then have a physical examination, take anti-worm medicine, and get vaccinated if possible...... (Of course, women in general are preferred)!

Next, the soldiers of the Zhu family army distributed a series of daily necessities to the refugees, such as blankets for sleeping (defective products) and cups for drinking water (wholesale modern goods), and scolded them for camping on the spot and building wooden houses to live in. (There are many trees in the nearby forest)!

At this point, basically every refugee has settled down.

After all, Zhu Jiajun sent so many things to himself, and he would definitely not let himself starve to death and freeze to death again, so he was even more obedient.

During this period, a large number of Lianyungang nurse regiments and women's regiments, as well as the team led by the red lady, came to help.

Depending on the situation, the refugees will either undergo several days of discipline training in the camps or will be escorted directly to the Liaodong region in the rear, where they will be re-educated on the way. There are also some people who will enter Shandong!

The cycle goes on and on, as if it never ends......

Relying on this method and strong logistics, Zhu Jiajun's fiefdoms handled one million refugees within a month.

Of course, compared with the Ming Dynasty, which has a population of nearly 100 million, this is just a drop in the bucket, and it needs to be strengthened.

You think that's the end of it?

no!

From the perspective of the officers of the Zhu family's army, they not only had to transport the population, but also secretly looked for suitable personnel to become soldiers and killers, as well as dead soldiers. Naturally, these people are also looking for children and refugees.

For example, in the past month, they have doubled the number of village warriors, and selected a group of obedient and suitable people among them.

Sent to the special base on the island for training!

Liu Feng is such a person, of course, Liu Feng's situation is a little special, he was originally a young master of a merchant's family, but he also likes to serve in the army and martial arts. So, he fell behind in the family road, joined the tide of displaced people, and entered the fiefdom of the Zhu family's army.

On the island!

Liu Feng found that the food every day was very good. At the worst of lunch and dinner, there is a "two rice" cooked with corn and rice, plus a bowl of vegetable broth and a salted fish per person. If you're lucky, you'll be able to eat braised pork, eggs, and wine.

With such a level of food, Liu Feng feels that even the life of those small landlords in his hometown may not be so good.

Of course, the benefits of this are also obvious.

Because, according to the general social concept of the late Ming Dynasty, and the habits of China for thousands of years, it became natural. These soldiers felt that since they had eaten Zhu Zilong's food, received Zhu Zilong's salary, wore Zhu Zilong's clothes, and lived in the room arranged by Zhu Zilong.

I heard that in the future, it will divide the field and divide the wife (hemp, and this good thing?) )

Then his rotten life already belongs to Zhu Zilong.

When the time comes, it is estimated that Zhu Zilong will fight the Tartars when he says that he wants to fight the Tartars, and they will rebel if he says that he wants to rebel. Khan, is it not for nothing that the emperors of all dynasties were afraid of the rebellion of the generals.

In other words, Zhu Zilong is embodied in the fact that as long as he is willing to be the emperor sincerely, it is a matter of minutes.

Well, however, considering that the emperor is his doppelganger, and if he doesn't wake up now, it doesn't mean that he won't wake up after a while. made his own rebellion, Zhu Zilong felt that how brain-dead would he do this?

On the island!

Zhu Zilong's good food and good food, and good benefits are not given in vain, these recruits must be loyal first, and secondly, they must work hard to train their soldier skills.

However, with a full of oil and water, clean and tidy new clothes, neat and comfortable quilts, and new and durable living utensils, for Liu Feng and others, this is already a good life like heaven.

Training soldier skills is tiring, but compared to a good life, no matter how hard and tired it is, it is worth it.

What makes them nerve-wracking, though.

Zhu Jiajun also demanded that the recruits must learn culture, even if it is not a poetry or anything like that, but just literacy and writing.

But it also made these new soldiers from ordinary people suffer from a brain pain.

Of course, after learning to read and write, the benefits will be doubled immediately, and the land will be doubled in the future. In terms of military merit, there will also be middle and lower grades, and those who know culture will also have benefits in terms of military merit.

These problems, in the minds of the recruits, are immediately not a problem at all.

Sure enough, in the face of sufficient interests, for human beings, if he wants to kill aliens, he will do it desperately.
