Chapter 156: POV: Zhou Jun Conscription Notice

Although the slender men wanted money, none of them were stupid enough to rob the silver. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info not to mention that it is the silver used by the imperial court officials and the imperial champion to recruit troops and buy horses, and taking a penny of silver is to rob the court property, and it is rare to quarrel and destroy the door, not to mention the more than 300 soldiers in red clothes and spears standing under the high platform, they stand as straight as javelins, put their hands on the middle seam of their trousers, and raise their heads high, looking extremely arrogant, motionless, like wood carving clay sculptures. But no one dared to challenge the authority of these people, and judging from their arrogant and indifferent eyes, they were absolutely obedient to orders, and did not take the lives of ordinary people as human lives. If you don't provoke them, it's fine, if you provoke them, I'm afraid that there will be a few more blood holes on your body in an instant!

"However, look at the appearance of these soldiers, they are really the heavenly soldiers and generals invited by Wenqu Xing! If we can be like this, we will live a lifetime in vain! The slender men talked and envied, and looked at the soldiers with yearning and fear, which made the latter more and more proud and indifferent!

Zhou Jun looked at the sky, it was almost noon, and it was supposed to be time for the master to play.

As he thought so, he heard the sound of a trumpet, followed by twenty more cannons, which immediately silenced the whispering tendermen. This cannon is actually a large firecracker, originally the master wanted to make something called "salute", but Xu Jingen said that the imperial court is very strict about weapons such as firecrackers and artillery, and all weapons must be manufactured and used by the Ministry of Industry, and private manufacturing is not allowed. Only in the fourth year of Hongzhi, in some border offices, it was possible to make some simple weapons such as poisonous fire flying cannons, hand-handled bronze guns, and generals' cannons, and even so, if there was a loss or needed to be replaced, the local government had to play the imperial court, and could not make their own.

Hearing this, Shizun made a very gloomy smile, as if he was very dissatisfied with this system. But he didn't say anything more, just continued to ask Xu Jingen to recruit craftsmen who were good at making firearms, and never mentioned the "salute" again, which made Zhou Jun a little regretful, after all, the things that the master took out must be good things, and he also wanted to see what the "salute" looked like.

A soldier in a red Jimin uniform stepped forward and slowly walked to the stage. He walked slowly, his hands raised high, slashing through the air as if he were fighting the air. His feet were raised high until they were level with his waist. It's slow, of course, but it has a terrifying power that makes people believe from the bottom of their hearts: "They are an invincible steel hero!" ”

This soldier was specially selected as a herald and honor guard, not only extremely tall and burly, but also with a particularly loud voice. He was originally just a country boy, and he once followed Zhou Jun to make trouble in Suzhou Mansion, when he saw the government servant, he was still trembling with fright, if it wasn't for Suhe's reward, he didn't dare to move, but now he looks full of energy and is not afraid of heaven and earth. It can be seen from here that the cultivation of the Cosmos Society can simply make a person completely reborn.

He slowly walked up to the high platform, cleared his throat, and shouted loudly through the dantian: "The Ming Imperial Champion Gong, the Governor of Yizhou Mansion, the Tianwen Sect, the Leader of the Southeast Shilin, and the Leader of the Datong Society, Liu Gong, have arrived!" ”

This long list of titles makes people dizzy, and Zhou Jun can't help but laugh, except for the first two titles given by the emperor, which are considered real money and genuine, the others are all given to the master by the people of the Datong Society, if it is serious, it is "arrogant". It's just that at the moment, Shizun is in the limelight, and he controls the righteousness of the world, and more importantly, he has money in his hands, and the "Donglin Foundation" controls the financial resources of many scholars, so no one dares to jump out and make a noise.

These slender men don't understand what "Tianxia Sect" and "Southeast Shilin Leader" and other titles, at most they can understand "Osmanthus Zong" and "Five Leaders", but it doesn't matter, the purpose of such a long list of roars is just to show the authority of the master and leave a deep impression on these people, as for whether they understand it or not, it doesn't matter at all.

They will understand what they should understand, and they will not understand what they shouldn't.

As for Zhou Jun, he also doesn't understand some things, but he is definitely less than these people.

The sound of gongs and drums rang out, and they played the tune of "Datong Song". This tune is said to have been written by a scholar who is proficient in music and rhythm in imitation of the ritual music of the Zhou Dynasty, but Zhou Jun didn't believe it at all: the "Book of Music" has been lost, and the poems of the "Book of Songs" have no tune, who can know what the ancient music looks like, it's just a ghost!

That being said, this tune is quite old-fashioned, lacking the sensationalism of fashionable music, but full of the firm determination to enlighten the mountains and forests, and the infinite passion to change the world and recreate the world.

Music resounded across the sky, followed by twenty tall soldiers slowly walking up the steps around Shizun. These soldiers were carefully selected, not only to protect the master, but also to use their bodies to block the arrows of the master. Shizun's body looked quite thin between them, but this did not weaken Shizun's authority in the slightest—because only Shizun wore the Ming Dynasty's cong four-grade crimson official uniform, and he was full of arrogance and domineering of the powerful.

It's like a white crane standing among pheasants.

Zhou Jun raised his head and looked up at the body of his master, this body is definitely not tall, but the crimson official uniform and lacquer veil on his body symbolize the administrative power of this ancient empire, a smile on the corner of his mouth contains endless deep meaning and groan, the three hundred heroes standing beside him, behind him, and under the stage are the best defenders of his will, and this number will grow stronger and stronger with the continuous development of the Datong Society, and further away in the Ming Dynasty, there are 400,000 scholars in the south of the Yangtze River and 20,000 farmers in the world, They will all be supporters of the Master.

This man, although his career is still in its infancy, already has the domineering spirit of embezzling the world and encompassing the universe. Although his strength is not enough to compete with even a general army at the moment, he is the spring of rain, and the sound of jointing can be heard late at night, and when he looks at it the next day, he is already like a cloud!

He is the future master of this kingdom!

"If you can be so majestic one day, don't be like him, as long as you have half of his majesty, how good it would be!" Zhou Jun looked at this powerful man obsessively, thinking in his heart.

At this moment, there is no hatred for killing his father in his heart, no shadow of Maomao, no thoughts of his mother and brother, only this deepest yearning remains.

It's like a sunflower yearning for daylight.

Shizun looked at the slender man standing densely in the audience, with fear and longing in his eyes, and smiled gently: "This official is the emperor's new champion, the new Yizhou prefect and the right attendant of the military department, Liu Xu and Liu Boyang!" When mentioning the emperor, he arched his hand in the direction of the capital, showing his inner respect, and then slowly said: "Many of you already know the intention of this official today, and some people still don't know it, so I will repeat it again so that you can hear it clearly." After speaking, he said to the herald at the beginning: "Little Tiger, you read it to them!" ”

Xiaohu put his feet together, saluted, and shouted, "Yes!" Then he took a piece of paper from his bosom. He is not good at reading and writing, and Zhou Jun is estimated to have memorized it by rote. Fortunately, this proclamation is written in an easy-to-understand manner, but it is not difficult to remember:

……

By the will of the Holy Emperor, this official will go to Yizhou to open up land, which is occupied by the natives and Hongmaoyi, and must be trained to protect the people and ensure the peace of the party. Inform the people of the matter:

First, the new army is 3,000 pioneers in Yizhou Prefecture, with two taels of monthly money, enough military food to eat, eggs at the meal, and meat at ****.

Second, the conscription is given priority to those who have no home, and the age limit is 20 to 35 years old, and they must be in good physical condition, and the officers and soldiers will check whether they meet the requirements;

Thirdly, those who are selected will undergo three months of military training and one month of political education, and then they will be given weapons and armor, and the training period will remain unchanged until the month;

Fourth, a pension of ten taels of silver will be given to those who die in battle, and if they die in battle, the pension will be paid more than one hundred taels as appropriate;

Fifth, Liu Gong governs the army, freezes to death and does not demolish houses, starves to death does not plunder, and has a combat allowance for every battle, as little as one or two taels, and more than three or five taels, since you have no worries about food and clothing, you must not harass civilians, otherwise the military law will be merciless;

Sixth, after training, all soldiers should study at night every night to learn to write and count, and those who have excellent grades and military merits can be promoted to officers, and those who fail to pass the test cannot become officers even if they have merits;

Seventh, if you have special ability, Liu Gong will not spare money, you can perform in front of Liu Gong, if you really have the ability, Liu Gong will hire it at a high price!

This is the rule of Liu Gong's recruitment, if you are willing to be a soldier and fight for a future, come to be a soldier quickly, if you don't want to, you can go by yourself! If you don't understand the rules and come to harass without understanding the rules, you are looking for a dead end, even if you have an official government that loves the people, you have no choice but to do it! I know you don't understand literature and science, so I hereby tell you!

……

After reading the notice, Xiaohu immediately saluted his master triumphantly, and then retreated to the back. Zhou Jun looked at the slender men around him and discussed as if they had blown up a nest:

"Do you hear that? Two taels of money per month, and two taels of settlement expenses, even the Liao army does not have it! And Liu Gong put all the money on the stage, he will never deceive people! ”

"Also, also, this officer and soldier have to learn to read and count, even the personal soldiers of the border army generals do not have this kind of treatment! If you make meritorious service, and then you can read and write, this is what you can do as an officer, and there will be more people in Yizhou in the future, and it will be a hundred or a thousand households! ”

Listening to the words of the slender men, Zhou Jun smiled quite reservedly, he looked at the bustling crowd in front of him, and suddenly felt in his heart that "everyone is drunk and I am sober": "You can only see these two taels of monthly money, and those with slightly bigger eyelids can still imagine being a hundred or thousands of households, but only me, only I can see the infinite rivers and mountains in the eyes of the master!" ”

He rode on a white horse, raised his head high, looked at the rising sun, and grasped it with his hand, as if he wanted to hold the sun in his hand, and his chest swelled with infinite pride! (To be continued.) )
