Chapter 51: A New Atmosphere in the Army

"Oh, really?" Ning Zhiyuan's eyes lit up, "How many people are there?" ”

Jiang Zhi hesitated for a few breaths before saying, "There should be more than thirty of them, all of them are hundreds of households in the army before, and there are three people among the hundred households now." After exposing such a big insider, Jiang Zhi seemed to have lost the strength of his whole body and sat down on the ground.

Ning Zhiyuan felt an emotion spreading for no reason, some were happy, some were panicked, and more were uneasy, because everything now seemed to be beyond his prediction, and in the annals of history, there was no such thing as the White Lotus Sect.

gave Jiang Zhi a piece of paper to write down his name, Ning Zhiyuan believed that this was only a part, and there were also White Lotus Sect elements hidden in the army that Jiang Zhi didn't know, and in addition to Ningxia Mansion, there were other places, Shaanxi, Shanxi

"Then there is no punishment for your betrayal of the White Lotus Sect?" Ning Zhiyuan asked, if it is really such a large rebel organization, it is impossible to rely only on the loyalty of its subordinates to maintain it, after all, it is a rebellion, not an army.

Jiang Zhi's writing movement froze, his face changed suddenly, and he said half-loudly, "Poison." ”

"It's not going to be a poison for you, and then let you take the antidote every once in a while." Ning Zhiyuan couldn't help but think of the universal poison in martial arts novels, and then asked.

Jiang Zhi looked at him with some surprise, and Ning Zhiyuan himself was stunned.

"Really?"

"Well," Jiang Zhi sighed, "It's just once every two years, and I didn't believe it at first, but I really saw someone die in front of me, but I can live for two years." ”

Jiang Zhi continued to write his name on the paper, and Ning Zhiyuan fell into deep thought.

The lights in the camp were burned out, and someone replaced them with new lights, but Ning Zhiyuan still didn't move, Jiang Zhi had already been locked up under Ning Zhiyuan's signal, and Li Jun stepped forward to remind him softly.

"Childe, it's not too early" after a few sounds.

Ning Zhiyuan came back to his senses, "Li Jun, do you really have that kind of poison?" ”

"My subordinates don't know, and I haven't met them."

"Oh, let's go back then."

There was the sun during the day, and the moon ran out naturally at night, under the gentle moonlight, Ning Zhiyuan thought a lot, he rectified the army and hindered the White Lotus Sect, so he was assassinated, and He Huchen was fine.

When the sun rose as usual the next day, Ning Zhiyuan was still Ning Zhiyuan.

He understands that the Ming Dynasty is already a ship that is about to sink, and there are many people who want it to sink, Houjin, Tatar, and even those Ming officials are doing this, and now there is another White Lotus Sect, but this has nothing to do with him, he just needs to save himself.

"Did you catch all those people yesterday?" Ning Zhiyuan asked, he asked people to arrest those White Lotus Sect disciples overnight, there should be no slip through the net.

"Arrested, interrogated, and dozens of people have been implicated, and a total of 80 people have now been arrested." Chen Biao replied, also secretly speaking, in this Ming Dynasty, there are still such a large force of rebels hidden, and the court doesn't even know about it.

"Chen Biao, in a few days, you will take people to transport grain back to Ningxiawei." Ning Zhiyuan nodded and said, "If you go, you can train there and repair the city wall, don't come back." ”

Now there are 13,000 soldiers in the entire Ningxia Zhongwei, Ning Zhiyuan personally arranged thirteen thousand households, and the remaining thirteen selected directly stayed by his side, anyway, he planned to recruit troops on a large scale.

At noon, more than 13,000 people stood on the school ground, their spirits were completely different from the previous few days, more than 80 members of the White Lotus Sect were tied to the execution ground, and many of them had more or less fear on their faces.

"These thieves are also afraid." Ning Zhiyuan muttered, "Do you think it's really as decisive as it is on TV?" ”。 He looked at a soldier who was looking this way, and motioned for Chen Biao to start shouting.

"Some of them used to be officers in your army, and some were partners in your army, but now, they have only one identity, that is, thieves who intend to rebel."

There was a commotion and discussion in the crowd.

"They are in the same group as Wei Chang, who assassinated the adults before, and they are his subordinates, who were caught by us, so today we cut them down in front of you."

At the sound of an order, more than eighty human heads were suddenly scattered on the ground in blood, and the visual impact made Ning Zhiyuan still want to vomit.

Looking at the surprised crowd, Ning Zhiyuan shouted, "I will pay you silver now, and you will train and fight in a down-to-earth manner, there are so many anti-people inside, and there are so many Tartars and Mongols outside, as long as you make meritorious service, you will be rewarded, and I will give you all the promotions and fortunes." ”

"You should be glad that only you and Guan Ning Tieqi can get military salaries in the whole Ming army, and you still get more than them."

Ning Zhiyuan's words made everyone's hearts flutter, as if a good day was tomorrow, and then he changed his words.

"But I know that there must be a thief of the White Lotus Sect among you, give you a piece of advice, leave as soon as possible, your leader has been arrested by us, and sooner or later he will confess you, and your fate will be those heads."

did not order people to dispose of these heads, although Ning Zhiyuan was very uncomfortable, but in order to more effectively deter the rebels in the army, he endured it.

More than 10,000 people began to train according to Ning Zhiyuan's method, stepping upright, standing upright, push-ups, bearing weights, and giving them so much silver, they had to be worth it.

Ning Zhiyuan was also practicing very the side, his current body was only at the level of an ordinary person, and he couldn't even compare to a stronger soldier, which made him feel insecure

After two days of hard work, Ning Zhiyuan's recruitment list has also had an effect, and there are already more than a dozen scholars who have come to the list, after all, Ning Zhiyuan gave a lot of silver, five taels of silver a year, in the late Ming Dynasty, where there was no pay for soldiers and no way to farm, it was very effective, at least Ning Zhiyuan thought that if he could find such a job at that time, maybe, no, he would definitely not think about taking the exam, of course, he was an exception.

According to Ning Zhiyuan's instructions, a group of scholars were busy re-registering so many soldiers, and the previous military register had been completely abandoned by him, and everything had to start again.

And with the completion of the registration of more than 10,000 soldiers, Ning Zhiyuan's foundation in Ningxia is also on the right track, his current silver, including those officials along the way and his own income from stealing his own homes, has 15.6 million taels, but the grain in Ningxia Mansion is not enough, so his top priority now is to buy grain.

When Ning Zhiyuan looked at the back of Chen Biao and the 7,000 military horses walking away, and then looked at the Li army and the 6,000 soldiers and horses behind him, he felt that this was the worst era, but it was the best era.

"Wu Tong, today you will start recruiting soldiers." Ning Zhiyuan returned to the barracks and instructed that the huge school field had been divided into two parts, one was used to garrison military tents, and under his order, all soldiers would move into the barracks from now on, so that they were soldiers.

"Yes." Wu Tong responded, although it is not bad to follow the adults, but he always feels uncomfortable, and it is best to stay with the soldier when he is a soldier.

I can't help but start to rejoice that time Lei Fang didn't believe in themselves, so they locked them up, and they saved their lives to have today, although the money embezzled over the years has been collected, but at least they will still be thousands of households in the future, right? And those few are already dead.

Ningxia Zhongwei, there are still a lot of refugees in the city, and there are few old and weak among them, after all, they can't afford to run around, plus the two thousand soldiers they refused to accept last time, they are locals, but after a long time, there will definitely be problems, so he recruited this wave of soldiers is a good thing.

In just three days, he reconvened 20,000 horses, and the refugees who had not enlisted in the army were also organized by him to prepare for the coming year's farming.

"Although you have been recruited, I told you that during the three-month probationary period, I will take care of your food, and after that, only 10,000 people will be left, and the salary will be eight taels a year, so you can do it yourself." Ning Zhiyuan began to lecture the newly recruited soldiers.

The amount of money he gave to those soldiers was undoubtedly a lot less, after all, there was still a distinction between relatives and relatives, and the probationary period, the noun, was used even more after he came to the end of the Ming Dynasty, and he also saved a lot of silver.

And for those soldiers who had just been requisitioned, there was obviously only one thought stimulated by Ning Zhiyuan's words, training training, and then training, which was exactly what he wanted.

This is the second group of people deceived by Ning Zhiyuan. This, in his opinion, is a white lie.
