In this era, there is a saying that good iron is not nailed, and good men are not soldiers. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As long as the family can survive, which of the common people is willing to send their son to the barracks?

When I went to the barracks, I didn't have enough food and clothing, there were many ruffians, and it was dangerous, what were I going to do?

Tongxiang is a rich land, so as soon as Li Weiguo talked about this recruitment, the people who were still close to him subconsciously retreated.

There are others to protect the family and defend the country, why do you have to ask my son to come forward and work hard?

Li Weiguo shook his head, it seems that this matter still has to be discussed in the long run.

……

Cut off the heads of the would-be robbers, pin them with lime, and store them properly.

This is the practice of the Ming Dynasty after the war, the Ming Dynasty calculated the number of enemies you cut the number of heads, the more the number of natural war merits, the more rewards.

Li Weiguo has been a little worried these days, some things are easy to say, but it is really difficult to do.

The top priority at the moment is that Tongxiang soldiers and horses are weak, and a strong army must be trained.

But if you can't recruit soldiers, you have to pick them from military households, or train existing soldiers.

But as soon as he grabbed the roster in his hand, Li Weiguo was furious.

Although you already know some things, when you really encounter them, you still feel angry.

"Mr. Jiang, this is my Tongxiang soldiers and horses?"

Li Weiguo had seen almost all of the soldiers and horses in Tongxiang when he was fighting the Japanese invaders, and at this time, although Li Weiguo, who was stumbling and lacking soldiers and armor, was still mentally prepared.

What is annoying is that there are really such people on the roster?

"Hehe, Master Li, almost all the soldiers and horses in our Tongxiang Township have arrived."

Jiang said with a smile.

Naturally, this person had also participated in the battle a few days ago, and he still had some respect for the little tanhua in front of him.

"Let's take a roll call."

In front of me, there are old, weak, sick and disabled people in Tongxiang Soldiers and Mali, and some of them are still limping over crutches, but that's it, there are 300 people who occupy a lot of land? Jiang Jiang, you are always lying to the ghost!

Jiang Jiang didn't dare to slack off, so he grabbed the roster roll call.

The imperial history is the duty of supervising hundreds of officials, so Li Weiguo's questioning of this military matter is not considered to be overstepping, and Jiang Jiang naturally has to listen to his instructions.

“……”

After a roll call, the number of people turned out to be just right.

Three hundred?

Li Weiguo looked at the number of people in front of him, it would be good to have half of the people, and you actually sang three hundred names for me?

But deceive me into not knowing how to count?

Li Weiguo was faintly angry, it was simply unbearable!

These soldiers seem to be familiar with dealing with the peak.

When the officials came down, they were just going through the motions, and everyone knew what the situation was in the imperial court now, so naturally they wouldn't say it, as long as they had some good money, they would naturally turn a blind eye to these things.

As a result, this Jiang General is also familiar with the road today, and the soldiers and ruffians below shouted at the roll call, looking at the soldiers and horses who are only one hundred and twenty or thirty, and now they have sung the names of three hundred?

"Lord Li, it's hot today, you see that this roll call is also finished, and the training of soldiers and horses is almost inseparable, let's go to the pavilion over there to cool off? There is a lot of good tea in the barracks! ”

Jiang Jiang deliberately aggravated the tone of the good tea, and the meaning was self-evident.

The officials who came and went down also dealt with it in this way, calling for some silver, and then the matter was settled.

This person, there is no one who doesn't like silver, don't you look at the dignified officials in the court?

On the surface, he is as serious as a Guan Gong, but if he really summons the silver, people are not happy to accept it?

Although the little imperial history in front of him looked like he was working hard in front of everyone a few days ago, but in private, it is estimated that it is not far away.

For many years, no matter how upright the officials who came to inspect the barracks, they all sighed when they came, took the money and left.

Most of those who are saddened by the abandonment of the imperial army are also worried that they are already suffering from a deep illness and retreat in the face of difficulties.

The official position is like flowing water, where can I get more money and be happy than having so many headless fires?

Therefore, Jiang Jiang always has reason to believe that as long as he drinks "tea for a while" for a while, this little tanhua will naturally retreat from the difficulty.

Jiang made the posture of the general invitation sufficient, with a sincere face, but the little tanhua in front of him didn't seem to give much face.

"Whoever names you name, who you let out."

Li Weiguo said angrily: "Re-roll call!" ”

What the imperial court reported was the roster in his hand at the moment, but the honor of being a soldier in front of him made Li Weiguo quite unhappy, which was the right way.

Li Weiguo, who is familiar with history books, naturally knows that there are empty salaries in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, but at the moment the coastal defense is in danger, he is also worried, and then looking at the current situation, he is naturally angry and quite uncomfortable.

"This ......"

Jiang Jiang was always shocked, this doll, is this a bar with himself?

The ordinary infantry of the Ming Dynasty had five cents of silver a month, and they reported more than 100 vacancies, and there were more than 60 taels of silver in this month, except for the monthly filial piety to the peak, they could still have 20 or 30 taels, which was also their main source of income every month, and they could count on it for drinking and eating meat every day.

"Huh? Do you dare to disobey? ”

Li Weiguo said firmly.

"Tongxiang is the east gate of Hangzhou, if Tongxiang is lost, the Japanese can easily take Jiaxing, the west can force Hangzhou, the east can return to the sea, it can be said to be an important place! Soldiers should naturally be brave and good at fighting, why don't you even dare to name names? ”

Li Weiguo said.

Jiang Jiang was always a little embarrassed, a lot of sweat flowed down his forehead, and he was stubborn, since this is the case, then order.

"Chen Erzi ......"

……

Today's roll call seems to be longer than usual, Jiang Jiang always feels like he is living like a year, like sitting on pins and needles, I really don't know what else this little imperial history will do.

"Lord Wu, this is your Tongxiang Soldiers and Horses?"

When calling the name this time, Li Weiguo called Wu Dayong, and Yushi has such power.

It should have been three hundred, but it was one hundred and sixty.

Most of the people who went there were old, weak, sick and crippled.

At this time, even Li Weiguo is a little sweaty, Tongxiang soldiers and horses are like this, if it wasn't for the unprecedented courage a few days ago, wouldn't he be in this Tongxiang county?

Wu Dayong didn't know how to explain, in fact, all of them had it.

In the past, when the Tartars were beaten, the same was true in the north, and the trend of eating empty salaries in the south of the Yangtze River was even more prevalent, and Wu Dayong was an old man, so these things were naturally commonplace.

But what can be done?

"Mr. Jiang, what about the rest of the people?"

Wu Dayong was speechless, speechless, just embarrassed there Uh-huh-ah, Li Weiguo asked Jiang again.

"Uh, this ......"

Say vacation? Say you're doing work in Tuntian?

The official in front of him is not stupid, and I don't know if this little doll wants to move seriously, Jiang Jiang is always a little unsure.

If this man wants to extort more money, it would be easy to say, but if he really wants to pursue this matter......

At the beginning, Jiang Jiang always thought that this little kid was just boiling for a while, and he knew that things were difficult to do, but now, Jiang Jiang always had a faint bad premonition.

After winning the battle a few days ago, Li Weiguo had already applied to Hu Zongxian for a commendation, but the merit was meritorious, and the past was excessive, and now the soldiers and horses in Tongxiang are like this, and he can't tolerate it.

"Mr. Jiang, can the imperial court's monthly military salary arrive as scheduled?"

Jiang Jiang was hesitant: "Yes, naturally there is." ”

"Okay, then I'll come to the barracks tomorrow." Li Weiguo said: "Since there are 300 soldiers and horses written on the roster, then tomorrow, I will see 300 Tongxiang soldiers and horses dressed up for patrol!" ”

Not only are there few people, but there are not many people with armor on the more than 100 imperial court soldiers and horses in front of them!

Where did the armor or money issued by the court go?

These moths! Eating the court's food every day, it is such a corpse vegetarian meal!

Where do you put the people of Tongxiang?

Jiang Jiang was sweating all over his body, and looked at Wu Dayong, this, how is this good?

Wu Dayong also put his eyebrows on his face, helpless. People are the court's scouts and superintendents, what can I do with him?

Li Weiguo said that he left angrily.

As soon as he arrived at his residence, Li Weiguo wrote a letter, which was addressed to Hu Zongxian.

"I have the Son of Heaven to guard the country, and today I Li Weiguo will follow suit, and I will come out to explore the flowers and guard Tongxiang!"

The meaning is very clear, if this Tongxiang business is not done properly, I will not leave!

Li Weiguo had not seen Hu Zongxian at this time, but he had sent a letter when he came.

To say that this Hu Zongxian is also a coarse and delicate person, when Li Weiguo sent someone to deliver the letter, he called this person to bring a few carrier pigeons back.

In this era, the carrier pigeon is a precious thing, and the average person can't afford to raise it, so the role is naturally used to fly the pigeon to pass the book, which is relatively fast.

After Li Weiguo expressed his intentions, he tied the letter to the paws of the carrier pigeon and released it violently.

At present, it is difficult to resist the Japanese, so start from a small city, which is called a spark that can start a prairie fire.

……

"Master Li, this is just a man surnamed Jiang outside, and the others are still waiting outside, I just ask you to let him live."

When Li Weiguo came, he only brought a groom, and the groom has also become Li Weiguo's housekeeper part-time in the past few days.

"A man surnamed Jiang!" Li Weiguo muttered in his mouth, it is that Jiang Jiang, this file, who will give him silver if he has nothing to do?

A huge package sent by this person, Li Weiguo opened it and saw that it was all silver ingots! A full package, less than two hundred taels!

Li Weiguo grabbed a silver ingot and checked it casually: "What a rich man, all the color of silver!" ”

Aren't these all the military salaries of the imperial court, the people's fat and the people's ointment?

Li Weiguo found that he had become this imperial history, and he was also a little angry!

"Master Li, take it?"

Seeing this, the old horse asked.

"Return it to him, just say that I, Li Weiguo, came to Jiangnan this time to fight against the Japanese, and I didn't come to be greedy for ink and silver."

Li Weiguo Road.

Tomorrow, if you Jiang General can't summon 300 soldiers and horses, I will punish you for your crimes! And you want to buy me with money?

……

Jiang Jiang who was waiting at the door was always like an ant on a hot pot, and when he saw the old horse open the door, he came up tightly, maybe if this little adult called himself in, things would be eased, but when he saw that the package he sent in was sent out again, he knew, it seemed that something bad was going to happen!
