When the old man said this, he immediately caused a burst of laughter, and he listened to the humanitarian: "What Elder Mink said, we are also trained in Hebei with the elder, how can we not know how the combat power of this Lingbao is!" It's just that what is being discussed now is not that the enemy is afraid of attacking! ”

When they said this, everyone echoed it, but when they saw that this Elder Mink was looking at each other, he said, "Since you are not worried that the enemy will attack, what else is there to discuss?" Fifth Brother Sun, Manager Sun, are you talking about whether this is the reason? ”

Elder Ermine called Sun Wuge, it was Sun Gu Sun Wulang of the Sun family, and now he is wearing a gray cotton jacket with a middle row of buttons, cotton pants and cotton shoes, and there are four small characters embroidered on the left heart of the cotton jacket "Huangzhou Construction". Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Today's Sun Gu Sun Wulang is also nearly middle-aged, with a half-foot-long goatee under his lips, but his face is much calmer than back then, and the elder Ermine who listened to it came to find his own opinion, as the largest leader of the five hundred craftsmen in Huangzhou in Tangchibao today, Sun Gu nodded and smiled: "Elder Ermine is right!" Even Sun Mou felt that there was nothing to discuss, just let the soldiers come to block it, and the water came to cover it. ”

It's just that after Sun Gu finished speaking, he listened to the guards who were sitting in everyone and were wearing armor and laughed: "Huh! How did Manager Sun speak, and I Lao Han convened everyone to discuss the matter, who was afraid of the Jurchens outside? Isn't he scolding a certain Han Shizhong for being greedy for life and afraid of death? ”

Sun Gu also brushed his beard and said: "Naturally, I know that you Han is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, so what else is there to discuss?" Just kill the enemy according to the drill code, is it possible to expect Sun to lead the craftsmen to drum and cheer for the army? But there is nothing missing in this soup pond fort, but there is only a lack of drum-making materials! ”

That Han Shizhong was originally a general of the Western Army (a squadron or brigade that can manage hundreds of people), and was originally an errand under Liu Guangshi under the command of Xuanfu Sidu in Shaanxi.

It is said that this person has not been in the military for a short time, and he is in the northwest frontier, so he should have been promoted to a deputy general and a senior military rank within the system, but I heard that this person has a loose temper, and he is often not promoted because he has evil officials, and he has been mixed up in the army. The reason why he can come to this Tangchi Fort as a guard now is because he hugged the right thigh with the right person at the beginning, and followed Liu Guangshi to raise troops and join King Qin.

Hearing Sun Gu's ridicule, Han Shizhong didn't care, so he also stroked his chin and said: "Han Mou is serious, tomorrow's war, how to make the drill code, really need to be discussed." Judging from what Han saw in the training camp in Hebei, if he really fights tomorrow according to the marshal's military discipline, he is afraid that the Jurchens will have to retreat if they attack a battle, and they are afraid that they will not be able to kill more enemies! ”

When Han Shizhong said this, the laughter in the military tent immediately stopped, and everyone got serious, and there was a humane: "The things that the lord is worried about, I also think that it is really difficult to do, but if you deliberately show weakness, I am afraid that it will hinder the military order, and then ......."

"What weakness?" Elder Ermine suddenly let out a low shout, then interrupted his words, and glared angrily: "Don't you want the Jurchens outside to think that our Lingbao can be broken by storm?" But the old man came to ask you, how did the king reprimand you and others about the search in Hebei that day? ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard it, and someone whispered: "The marshal reprimanded a lot at the beginning, but he didn't know what he was talking about......

Elder Ermine didn't wait for everyone's brains to open up, so he also said: "The king reprimanded at that time, Lingbao was intended to enclose the land, not to kill the enemy, if you can use Lingbao to hold the supply channel of our army and clamp down on the enemy's traffic, it will be a great achievement." The enemy comes to attack and disturb, the smoke is far away, and the smoke is alarmed, and the near is repulsed on the spot, as long as the integrity of the Lingbao is guaranteed, and our army has no casualties, it is our responsibility, how can we kill more enemies? ”

I want to say here that since the servants followed Huang Jie, they also followed the Song people to call the master the young master at first, but later after Huang Jie was named the king of Huainan County, the servants would call the king regardless of their words, and others did not dare to say anything more when they read the identity of their servants.

However, it was said that Elder Mink moved out of Huang Jie's words like this, and immediately called for silence in the tent, because these words were indeed Huang Jie's repeated orders to explain to the generals of the guard troops who were training at that time. And that's right, the function of Lingbao is to defend the supply line or attack line, the fortress will not run if it is rooted on the ground, the enemy is coming to guard it well, and the enemy will watch it well when he runs, so you can't open the castle gate and chase it out, right?

You must know that although there are also a hundred cavalry troops in the guard force of this Lingbao, the main work of these guarding cavalry is to patrol and guard the surroundings of Lingbao, and secondly, to serve as a communication soldier and post station to deliver news and send a small amount of supplies to the army, and it is not for them to pursue the remnants of the enemy.

Therefore, there is really nothing wrong with Elder Mink using this to reprimand everyone who wants to work more in the battle of tomorrow.

However, after Elder Mink reprimanded everyone with Huang Jie's original words, everyone's faces were a little unbearable, so he smiled mercilessly: "Could it be that you still dare to covet the Jurchen head with two pieces of money?" But don't forget, if one of our soldiers dies in battle, the king will have to lose a hundred yuan! ”

As soon as he said this, everyone immediately turned red, and suddenly no one dared to come out.

The Song military regulations were strict, and naturally there were pension regulations for the dead. To put it simply, the regulations on bereavement pensions formulated in the first year of Yuanfeng (1078), which are now exercised, stipulate that in addition to the standard items such as titles, orphans, reductions, and gifts, the direct bereavement benefits for the dead are "70,000 (money) for the commander, 60,000 for the deputy commander, 50,000 for the military envoy, the head of the capital, the deputy soldier and the horse, and the deputy head of the capital, and 20,000 for the soldiers and servants", and also stipulates that "the winning general, the school 30 horses (silk), if they do not win, they will be reduced by half".

According to the currency exchange rate of the Great Song Dynasty today, it has always been about 780 to 800 yuan (the official exchange is 1,000 yuan), even if a commander dies in battle, he can only get about 80 yuan, and ordinary soldiers or servants can only get a pension of only 20,000 yuan, if it is calculated according to 770 consistently, it is about 25 yuan.

Of course, based on the purchasing power of the Great Song Dynasty today, twenty-five guan is not less, that is, an adult ordinary worker in Tokyo today can earn two or three guan a month, and twenty-five guan is about equal to the sum of an adult's salary in a year. And twenty-five yuan in a small county town, it is enough to buy a house and a few acres of land, and then hire two old mothers and two maids to live a few years of leisurely life.

It's just that the crux of the matter is whether the family can get the full amount, don't say it first, the most important thing is whether the military department or even the army where the soldiers directly serve recognize you as killed in battle.

Sometimes, you have obviously lost the battle, but you have reported a victory, and then the military envoy's ink pen is ticked, maybe your head will be divided into the pile of enemy heads that have been captured, and then you will be charged with desertion and escape.

As for Elder Ermine's saying that Huang Jie lost money, it was because Huang Jie said when he was training this garrison force that after receiving special training for the defense of Lingbao, this guard unit was no longer an ordinary Song army, so it was natural to improve the treatment like the Imperial Car Army, the Shenwu Army and the Dare Soldiers, especially the pension, and it had to be on par with the strongest troops in the Great Song Dynasty.
