Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Power of the Three Medals
Within three days, seventy-five captains were elected one after another, and then it was time for the Son of Heaven to select the Sixth Army.
According to the competition of various armies these days, coupled with the intelligence in his hands, Liu Xie wanted to select the four major armies, namely the left and right dragon martial armies, and the left and right Shenwu armies.
As for the left and right Yulin Army, Liu Xie handed it over to Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, and asked them to choose from the 60,000 troops near Chang'an City.
Since Liu Xie ordered that each army was 30,000 people, the army under Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun almost did not need to be selected, and automatically rushed into the army of the Son of Heaven.
Among them, the hussar general Huangfu Song led the left Yulin army, and the Wei general Zhu Jun led the right Yulin army.
The four armies of Longwu and Shenwu, a total of 120,000 people, were elected from the 150,000 army in Shanglin Yuan.
Among them, this selection work made Liu Xie sad and headache for a while.
It's not a headache of 120,000 choices, but how to eliminate the remaining 30,000 troops and how to use them.
According to the origins, ages, and differences between Hu and Han of these hundreds of thousands of people, as well as who they belonged to before, Liu Xie finally kicked out 30,000 people.
And most of these 30,000 people are Qiang, many of them are military horses brought by Dong Zhuo from Xiliang, and they all have a history of burning and killing, and they are all over thirty years old.
The combination of these conditions made Liu Xie uninterested in them.
Because in Liu Xie's eyes, these 30,000 soldiers and horses may be difficult to change, after all, they have followed Dong Zhuo for the longest time, and even plundered for more than five years, and they are also older, to describe them in two words, they are ruffians!
Soldiers!
It's not scary, it's scary that they don't accept change and want to keep fighting!
Old fritters in their thirties, can their personalities be changed?
Hard!
It's really hard!
After the age of thirty, the personality is already firmly fixed, and it will be difficult to change, and as for the habits, I am afraid it is even more difficult to change!
For such a group of ruffians, Liu Xie must remove them from the six armies of the Son of Heaven. Prevent them from continuing to bring the winds of raiding to the army.
Of course!
Liu Xie will not blatantly say that I can't trust you, I hate you, and I don't want you to stay in Guanzhong and harm the people.
As for excuses. It is extremely easy to find, Han Sui garrisoned Jincheng, Ma Teng supported the army in Weiwu County, their hometown in Liangzhou now has two hungry wolves peeping, and there must be a large army to live in Liangzhou. in order to protect their hometown from being violated.
And this army is them, the remaining 30,000 old soldiers.
Because almost all of them are from Liangzhou, and the old father and mother of the family are there, and now their safety is threatened, so they naturally need the protection of the imperial court.
"Your Majesty! Please allow us to go back to the family! ”
Under Liu Xie's secret promotion, these 30,000 veterans, who were originally in a low mood, instantly raised their spirits, and asked themselves to go back to their hometown in Liangzhou to watch Han Sui and Ma Teng, the two hungry wolves, for the Son of Heaven.
"No hurry! I'll talk about it in a few days~~~"
The smile that the Son of Heaven caused made these people even more anxious. thought that after losing the election, they would be abandoned, they would not be reused, and they would not even be able to enter the dragon eye of the Son of Heaven.
Now that they finally get the opportunity to realize their own value, they will not grasp it well, if they can fight a few battles, they will take back Liangzhou for the Son of Heaven.
Then they will be able to gain the favor of the Son of Heaven again, and they need to be given the opportunity to prove themselves, and they do not want to be left behind.
"Go back to Liangzhou! Home! ”
30,000 men were all at once like arrows, and the rest of the army was also driven. The captains asked to meet the Son of Heaven and allow the 30,000 troops to go back to protect their hometowns.
In the end, the Son of Heaven finally agreed, but he still had to make them wait a few days. Because the Son of Heaven still has a great gift for them.
Just when they were confused, the Son of Heaven sent out the first gift package, and instantly smashed the hundreds of thousands of troops to the point that they almost fainted happily.
The Son of Heaven showed them three different medals, which were made of bronze, iron, and gold.
These three medals need to be obtained by virtue of their military exploits, but this small medal represents. In addition to fertile land and money, the most important thing is a status symbol.
As long as you behead ten or more people, you can get a bronze medal.
And this medal represents 100 acres of fertile land, 50 yuan of money, and one person in a family does not need to serve. When they are discharged from the army, they can also be given priority to the position of pavilion chief.
Just the priority to be the pavilion chief, this reward is enough to make them crazy.
Ten households are one mile, there is a mile long, ten miles is a pavilion, there is a pavilion long.
Don't look at this pavilion chief, the population under his jurisdiction is only 100 households, but all along, it has been grasped by the children of wealthy merchants in various counties, and soldiers like them are estimated to not get the position of pavilion chief after a lifetime of struggle.
But that's no longer the case!
As long as they can obtain ten enemy heads on the battlefield, they have a great chance of becoming the head of a pavilion after being discharged.
Of course, just a bronze medal for hors d'oeuvres made him extremely excited, and the appearance of the silver medal almost made them lose their voices.
When the meritorious service is accumulated to the time of beheading fifty people, those who have more than five full merits at the same time can receive this shining silver medal in the hands of the Son of Heaven.
"Promoted to one level under the captain, and at the same time obtained 500 acres of fertile land, three generations of direct family members can be exempted from service, and 300 yuan of money, after retiring from the army, they will be able to obtain the post of pavilion chief or above, and the priority is to be the township chief."
500 good fields!
Therefore, the soldiers swallowed their saliva silently, and ordinary people's homes, not to mention 100 acres, even if there are 50 acres, as long as there are no droughts, floods, and locust plagues, it is enough for a family to eat enough for a year.
As long as you get this silver medal, you can get 500 acres of fertile land, and after you retire from the army, you will definitely get the position of pavilion chief or above, or even the head of the township, and the winner has the right of priority to wait.
"Gollum~~~Gollum"
The saliva continued to gulp down, and their faces were stunned.
Shiting is a township, there is a township chief, in the eyes of many people in their hometown, the township chief is the biggest official!
Most of the current township chiefs are controlled by the side lines or direct descendants of the county families, and they are generally rarely outflowed.
Now they, as long as they behead fifty people, the pavilion chief is at their fingertips, and the township chief is almost hopeful!
What a glory!
The first two bronze and silver medals are estimated to only make ordinary soldiers swallow their saliva, but the golden gold medals can almost make all generals crazy.
An army that has won five battles in a row in a big war, and is a lieutenant colonel or above, can receive this honor - the Golden Medal, in addition to good land, reward, and exemption from conscription.
What makes them most excited is that together with the Zhonglang generals, they can be promoted to one level; Those who have a knighthood will have a thousand households.
That's enough to drive them crazy.
You must know that in Dahan, the more you climb up, the more difficult it becomes, and many people have been stuck in the positions of lieutenant and lieutenant general all their lives, and they will not be promoted in their lives.
Because above the Zhonglang general, there is the real position of the two thousand stone generals, the generals of the four towns before and after, the left and right, the four expeditions and the four towns, and the positions of these generals, the sons of the poor family or the children of the peasant families, will not be touched in their lives.
Now it's different, as long as they maintain a winning record and win all five big battles, then they have a chance to get that position, which has been a fantasy for them before, but now it is within reach.
"Oh~~~Oh~~~"
For a time, the whole army fell into a carnival.
On the stage, Liu Xie looked at Xun You and smiled. Below, more people of insight see the huge opportunities.
These three medals are interlocking, and if there is only the idea of peace, then a bronze medal can allow them to spend the rest of their lives in peace.
If there is a climb up**, then it is necessary to move towards the silver and gold medals.
If you behead 50 people and accumulate 5 of these full merits, you can be promoted to one level below the rank of lieutenant.
In other words, although you are only a thousand-person army horse, you can be promoted to captain by virtue of your military exploits; Then, when he was a lieutenant, he won five battles in a row, and he could be promoted to a lieutenant general.
In the future, if they make war exploits, they will not be able to obtain the position of the general of the four expeditions and four towns, and of course, there will be a knighthood and a food town!
"Hooray! Banzai!! Hooray!! ”
150,000 people roared with all their might, shaking the sky and resounding through the heavens and the earth, with the majestic power of destroying gods and demons.
Liu Xie opened his arms and closed his eyes tightly, enjoying the sound of attachment one after another.
Passage!
The passage of power and wealth of the Han Dynasty was torn open by him!
The poor family is no longer humble and lowly, and the family is no longer high!
All of them, with military exploits, good men can fulfill the dream of being a general! (To be continued.) )
