Huang Qianshan did not brag, and only two days later, the Daimyo's Mansion conveyed a military order from the Tokyo Privy Council, appointing Xu Wei, the deputy envoy of Xiu Wulang and Zizhou Regiment Training, as the "Commander of the Yongying Battalion of the Daimyo Jingsui Township". He ordered him to "recruit loyal and brave warriors in the land of Hebei, and clear the countryside and thieves". There is no set amount, the imperial court manages the military rations, pays the military salary in half of the treatment of the van army, and takes care of all the weapons and equipment, but it explains one point, that is, the bounty is paid according to the head of the beheading and the captive, and the reward for one person is three times. In other words, if a villager can kill or capture five enemies in battle, he is worth a year's military salary. This seems a little unreasonable, but in fact, it clearly expresses the court's view of this miscellaneous army, the court will not support you in vain, you want money, success, and war achievements in exchange. Otherwise, you might as well be a soldier.

The Jingsui battalion belongs to the battle sequence of the Xiang army, and it is controlled by the pacification envoy of the Daimyo Mansion Road. The Daimyo's Mansion understood Xu Wei's difficulties, and to be precise, Zheng Ying Zheng was considerate of Xu Wei, and mobilized a batch of old equipment from the armory for the Jingsui camp through connections. There are 170 spears, 203 knives, 160 shields, and more than 50 heavy weapons such as moon swords, horse axes, and so on.

With such an appointment, a little military salary, and a pile of broken copper and iron, Xu Wei was asked to pull up an army and exterminate the thieves for the forbidden army. How else to say that the Song Dynasty was the most economically prosperous dynasty in ancient Chinese history? The emperor is simply a profiteer! Xu Wei even doubted that Zhao Ji should be a buddy who crossed over today, right? Why don't you play the mercenary set so smoothly? How did he come up with the idea of exchanging war exploits for payment?

Grievances and grievances, you still have to do the work, and you have to do it beautifully.

Xu Wei took a piece of appointment and escorted more than a dozen cars back to Xujiazhuang. The first thing he did was not to announce to the township and recruit soldiers, but to hold his appointment certificate, stand outside the guest hall of his home, and call out to those relatives who are staying in Xu's house. The place was not peaceful, and the imperial court issued an order to recruit people who dared to fight and eliminate the thieves. Since you people are clamoring to defect to the Xu family, Cheng, now give you a chance to receive a reward for meritorious service, join the Jingsui camp, and serve the country. How much is the military salary? Not much, half of the van army! Take care of your own weapons!

Immediately, many people slid off the stool, and without saying hello, they quietly stole out of the gate of Xu's mansion. There are more than a dozen young scoundrels left to watch, and their lives are not settled anyway, are they? Just go with Xu Laojiu as a soldier, no matter how much silver you can get, anyway, the court will take care of food and housing.

Xu Wei recruited his first batch of soldiers, and the composition was very simple, all of them were ruffians and hooligans.

A few brothers look straight and hurt, can these foodies be soldiers? Can you fight? Lao Tzu walked around Xujiazhuang three times with his bare ass! When I see a woman, I'll call my mother! Wait a while, Sensei said that it was a woman, even if it was a donkey, there was a hole in the tail, and Lao Tzu was also called a mother!

The next day, Xu Wei personally painted and painted the notice, yes, it was calligraphy and painting. The notice is very concise, a knife, a silver ingot, and there are only eight words underneath: "Be a soldier and eat a salary, kill the enemy and receive a reward". Command people to post everywhere and recruit warriors. He also sent Yang Yan to lead people to the county, and Zhang Qing Matai went to nearby villages to recruit soldiers. Without waiting for the three of them to reply, the two stunned men in Xiajin County who usually messed with Xu Wei rushed to help with guns and knives. didn't say anything, just said, "Brother Jiu, the brothers are coming with you to eat and drink spicy!" ”

Xu Wei did not refuse and accepted all the orders. Mrs. Xu originally only wanted to give his son a staff officer, and he didn't speak, but he really couldn't stand it, do you want to organize the army, or do you want to go to Qianniu Mountain to fall into the grass? Can this kind of soldier fight? Lao Tzu lived in vain for decades. But Xu Wei didn't seem to listen to the advice he was listening to, and insisted on going his own way, so angry that the old man left a sentence "Play by yourself!" I don't care! ”

Two days later, good news finally came back. Zhang Qingma two or two, recruited more than 200 people nearby! And almost all of them are young and middle-aged farmers. This is the reason why Xu Wei sent Zhang Qing to go. He took into account, first, that Xiajin County had suffered a military disaster this year, and that many peasant households had been looted, and life was not easy. Second, Wucheng County was robbed, and many families went to Xiajin to join their relatives. It's not a thing to eat and drink for nothing in other people's homes, just when Xu Jiu recruited soldiers, he happened to have a mixed meal to make a living.

Xu Wei himself had more than 90 township soldiers under his command, as well as more than 50 scoundrels who had just been recruited, plus the personnel recruited by Zhang Qingma Er, nearly 400 people. After waiting for another three days, seventy or eighty people came from the county and nearby villages. Xu Wei didn't wait any longer, because time did not wait for him, and immediately announced that the "Daimyo Jingsui Township Yong Battalion" was formed into an army, he served as the commander, Zhang Qing was the deputy commander, Yang Yan and Ma Tai were all the heads, and from the Xujiazhuang Township soldiers, three were selected to make up for the number of the five capitals. Under the head, ten people are one tithe, one will be a member, five will be a team, and one will be a team, and all will be selected to be a strong person.

The establishment of the Jingsui battalion was all organized in accordance with the system of the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army. The shelves have been erected, the team has been enriched, and the next step seems to be training, right? Xu Wei didn't seem to think so.

The wheat field outside Xujiazhuang has been requisitioned by the Jingsui camp, and dozens of military tents have been erected. From now on, all the Jingsui battalions from the commander and below the command level will be allowed to live in military tents, and no military orders will be given, and it is strictly forbidden to leave without permission.

In a camp tent in the center of the barracks, a wooden table, a few benches, Xu Wei convened the officers above the head of the capital to discuss the matter, and the five infantry soldiers were all heads, only Yang Yan was missing.

"Where is Yang Yan ......" Dressed in cowhide armor and carrying a knife at his waist, the majestic Zhang Qing asked as soon as he came in. Before he could finish the problem, Yang Yan's voice came from outside.

"Stop! Where to go? ”

"Hey, Yang Da is stunned, it's really like that, don't you know me? I am, ouch! Target! What are you doing to hit me, ouch, ouch......" Ouch sounded, and the officers in the tent frowned, what is Yang Yan doing? What about hitting people?

Before he could figure it out, Yang Yan howled in his throat again: "By the command of the military order!" Those who leave the camp without reason will be rewarded with 20 military sticks! Who still wants to get out? ”

"Lao Tzu wants to go out! See how dare you take me! "There is no shortage of unbelievers in this world.

"Left and right!" Yang Yan shouted angrily, and someone responded with a bang. "Take it! Twenty with a military stick! ”

After a while, the screams rang out: "Oops! Kill! There's no king's way! Ouch hey! Dear mother, tap it! Xu Jiu, Brother Jiu, Commander Xu, I know that I am wrong, ouch ......"

The officers in the tent all changed color, Xu Jiu was playing really this time? Didn't you play with urine and mud when you were a child?

Zhang Qing glanced at Xu Wei, who was not shocked, and questioned: "Yang Yan has little tendons in his brain, but he won't act on the spot, and he will be black, if he really makes a mistake, how will it end?" Get a few sticks. ”

Xu Wei said casually: "Military law is ruthless, it doesn't matter if you kill it, twenty military sticks, full distribution, Tong Su is not bullied." ”
