Section 1264 Change and Recruits

Xinhua City is the best time of the year in the middle of summer in May. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The fields outside the city are now wheat shows, and they are full of millet oil.

In the criss-crossed land, there are many ditches, and in various places near the river, waterwheels stand in wells.

Along the river, Zhang Weiyang inspected again and confirmed that the 'hired workers' were not lazy.

"Zhang Sima! Zhang Sima! A businessman in his thirties, full of wealth, came forward with a smile on his face, handed a book of accounts to Zhang Weiyang, nodded and said eagerly: "Please Sima sign on this, so that I can make a difference!" ”

Zhang Weiyang learned from his eldest brother's appearance, pointed at it with a gesture, and then picked a bone from the egg, and denounced several "omissions" of the "hired workers", so he "reluctantly" pinched his nose and signed his name on the account book.

The other party obviously let out a sigh of relief, dropped the big stone in his heart, and replied with a smile: "Sima Gaoyi! Xie Sima appreciates his face! ”

Then, a dozen fierce black-clad rangers, carrying sticks, drove more than a hundred 'hired workers' out of the fields.

The 'hired workers' were coerced, knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Weiyang, and bowed: "Sima Gaoyi, thank Sima for rewarding the meal......"

Zhang Weiyang took his eyes and glanced at these 'hired workers'.

Their appearance is different, there are dwarf Japanese slaves captured from the Unu Islands, and there are white-skinned Ding Ling slaves and Buyeo slaves captured from the northern ice fields, but more are deep-eyed and bearded Hu Nu.

"These Yidi, Mr. Wang's education is good......" Zhang Weiyang sighed and said: "I'm afraid in a few years, they will be naturalized......"

As soon as these words came out, the 'hire-workers' were overjoyed.

Who doesn't want the Han household registration book?

Once it can be confirmed and naturalized, it can be registered, and you can immediately organize a household, own a hundred acres of black land, and a wooden shed of your own, and maybe even marry a little lady and have a litter of children.

When Mr. Wang heard this, his face twitched a little, and he said with a smile: "Don't dare to be Sima praise...... If you want to naturalize these rough goods, you have to work hard! ”

But in his heart, Mr. Wang hopes that these 'hired workers' will never have a chance to be naturalized!

In this way, he can make money!

Zhang Weiyang was just talking, he took small steps, hummed a little song, and walked towards the distant village.

Since the four years of Yuande, the miscellaneous thought has set up a whirlpool of ideas in this Andong area.

Because the ideas and voices of the miscellaneous family were very much in line with the interests of Anton's nobles and officers, they were like a cloud for a while.

Nowadays, in the entire territory of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, from the Joseon monarch, the king of Han, the governor of the Metropolitan Protectorate and other dignitaries, to the ordinary soldiers and ordinary people, they are already the support of miscellaneous thoughts.

Just like the powerful Confucianism in the Qilu, Wuchu region, after the Zajia became strong, they naturally promoted their own world view and social outlook.

And will do everything possible to try to make the society and the people follow their own morality and etiquette.

Unfortunately, the miscellaneous family, like the Legalists, advocates the 'abolition of slavery'.

And the miscellaneous families are more radical - they demand that society be free of slaves.

People can be high and low, but in terms of personality and dignity, they should be equal.

As Wu was said by the Pyongyang Academy: The emperor rules by the sky, the sky takes the people as the heart, and the people do what they want, and the sky will do what they want.

It also quoted the words of the ancient holy king: Heaven listens to its own people, and heaven sees itself as its own people!

And then it leads to the social outlook of today's miscellaneous family: the rule of mortal kings is greater than yin and yang. Yin and yang, based on the sky, the heart of heaven is in harmony with yin and yang, and the heart of heaven is against yin and yang; The sky takes the people as the heart, the people are happy, the heavens are happy, and the people are sad, and the heavens are rebellious. The people are ruled by the monarch, and if the monarch is good, the people will be governed peacefully, and if the monarch is evil, the people will be unjust.

The people also took the edict of the current day and the aphorism that was engraved on the top of the Xuanmur Hall to make annotations, so that the nobles and scholars of Anton nodded yes one after another.

As a result, the ideas of the miscellaneous family were gradually accepted by the whole territory of Anton.

Since the Son of Heaven has the constitution of heaven in his mouth, he shepherds and hunts on behalf of the heavens, but the heavens are determined by the will of the people.

Then, it is immoral to use the people as slaves!

They will be rejected by heaven!

In order to show that he is progressive, and at the same time synchronized with the will of the Son of Heaven.

In the fifth year of Yuande, all Han slaves and maids were liberated in the whole territory of Andong.

'Employment' was used instead...... Well...... It is to sign a contract with someone and let him serve him, such as ten years, during which he will be given a salary, such as a thousand dollars......

Then, everyone found that it seemed that doing it like this was more beneficial than the previous way!

The most important thing is that you can also get a sense of moral superiority by playing like this.

So, starting this year, even Yidi Nuwen began to play with the employment system.

Moreover, because in the past, King Han and King Zhen Fan both engaged in the dispatch system.

Therefore, these Yidi slaves have been played with more tricks!

For example, the fixed-time employment system is very suitable for the use of the Protector Army and the Reclamation Regiment - when the farm is busy, hire a group of 'hired workers' to let them do the most tiring and hard work for them, and then give them a little money.

And this kind of gameplay, because the benefits are particularly large, has attracted many rangers who make money in the gold rush to enter the 'hired labor' industry.

Just like that Mr. Wang, he took money to buy hundreds or thousands of slaves, then went to the government to prepare cases, got a permit, and then took them everywhere to find work - definitely not worried about finding a job!

Whether it is to help harvest and plough when the farm is busy, or to dry fish for the building boat yamen, or to build roads for the Andong Duhufu.

There's always money to be made!

Moreover, compared with the previous knife licking blood, the precarious gold panning career is more secure and has a higher social status.

However, if you use slaves for a long time and do such heavy work, after a long time, there will definitely be problems.

Therefore, under the appeal of the miscellaneous family, after the coordination between the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate and all parties, a policy was finally introduced - all Yidi slaves, as long as they work seriously and responsibly, and they are eager to be king-oriented, can apply for naturalization after three years of work.

Those who are successfully naturalized can be paid by the government to redeem their lives and be free immediately.

The government will also grant them land, houses and tools – these are of course also loans, to be repaid!

So, all the Yidi slaves were relieved.

All of them work conscientiously and responsibly, and work diligently.

Everyone was waiting for the day when they were naturalized, the day when they would become a glorious subject of the Han family.

However, Zhang Weiyang knew that in fact, even if he was naturalized, it was still a trap.

Because after naturalization, if no miracle happens, then, for at least five years, all the property obtained by the man's efforts and diligence will have to be used to pay off the debt, and the next ten years will have to live with his fingers crossed!

If you are unlucky, you will go bankrupt at any time, and the land you have worked so hard to cultivate and cultivate will be confiscated by the government, and you will enter those workshops and workshops and continue to work to pay off your debts.

It's not just Yidi Nuwen, ordinary Han immigrants, if they don't pay attention and don't work hard, this is also the end!

In this land of Andong, except for the immigrants of the Reclamation Regiment and the military families of the Protector Army, they belong to a guaranteed group.

Everyone else has to fight for their future lives.

The peasants had to work hard, the businessmen had to hurry up to make money, and the hired laborers had to work hard to get naturalized as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Zhang Weiyang couldn't help but feel a little happy, but he also knew that even he needed to work hard!

The Guardian Army has become more and more formalized.

In the future, if you want to be promoted in this Protector Army, unless you get combat merits, the difficulty will become higher and higher!

Even, if he can't keep up with the footsteps of the Protector Army, then it is very likely that he will be retired.

Therefore, Zhang Weiyang did not go home, but came to the military camp outside the village, put on armor, and began to train his troops.

The Huhui Army is a field army stationed in Tun, so in peacetime, it is scattered on the vast fertile soil within a radius of 300 miles from Xinhua City, taking care of his family and conducting military training at the same time.

It is only in wartime that they are concentrated.

However, although it is a garrison army, the equipment of the Guardian Army is no worse than that of the Flying Fox Army and other old strong armies.

The reason is very simple - the Protector Army is rich!

Just the dried fish in the Heishui River, the annual output is about 100,000 stones!

Counting the commercial tax income brought by the gold rush, the annual income of the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate is tens of thousands!

Because the Anton Protectorate is a newly developed place, the Son of Heaven issued a special edict allowing Anton not to pay fiscal and tax revenues to the state for ten years.

Although most of this money was used to reclaim land, repair roads, and water conservancy, a lot of it also flowed into the army and became military expenses.

The Guardian Army itself can receive state grants and military support from vassal states such as Shinban, Korea, and South Korea.

Therefore, compared with the Xiliu Battalion, the equipment of the Protector Army can be said to be inferior, and even stronger in some aspects.

For example, Zhang Weiyang's department is a standard strong crossbow Sima.

Quan Sima has three powerful crossbows, equipped with the latest divine arm bow of the Han army, with a range of more than 150 paces, enough to penetrate thick armor.

The other seven are light crossbows, equipped with crossbow machines, which are flexible and lightweight, and can complete the task of intercepting and shielding the enemy on the battlefield.

But, it's nothing......

After all, crossbowmen are the least technical of the military.

A crossbowman only needs three months of training to master the tactics of battle and become a qualified crossbowman.

Even if it's a crossbowman with a divine arm, that's true!

The reason is simple, the crossbow does not have any technical content, it is only necessary to aim and shoot.

So......

The crossbowmen in the real strong army of the Han army can be transferred to sword and shield soldiers at any time and charge into battle with the army.

The "Minutes of Military Training" compiled by the Protector Army itself is written in great detail: Whenever the enemy encounters an enemy, the enemy is at 150 paces, then he shoots with a strong crossbow, and the enemy shoots at 60 paces, and then fires a salvo with a bow and crossbow, and the enemy advances 20 steps, abandons the bow and crossbow and engages the enemy with a knife and stick.

Therefore, in Zhang Weiyang's army, in addition to the archer of the divine arm bow, there is a simplified version of the Mo knife, or a long sword and other weapons on the ground next to the other crossbowmen.

This is the impact of the Battle of Gaoque.

In the battle of Gaoque, the Mo knife played a miraculous effect, so all the armies in the world vigorously equipped the Mo knife.

However, the Mo knife used by the main force of the Han army was not only expensive but also cumbersome to manufacture.

At present, the output may only be a few thousand a year!

The other armies had no choice but to equip themselves with various simplified versions of the Mo Knife.

Anyway, as long as you find a relatively hard and slender wooden stick, and tie it to the head of a long knife, it doesn't matter the shape, size, and material of the knife head - as long as it can cut people.

Nowadays, these various simplified versions of Mo knives are popular all over the world.

Hugh said that the crossbowmen of various armies, even the county soldiers and militia in various places, were also equipped.

In the current Han world, the number of various simplified versions of Mo knives is probably in the thousands, and it can even be said that it is one of the weapons with the largest number of equipment in the world.

The only things that can be ahead of it are bows and arrows, swords and spears.

And Zhang Weiyang's troops, the most they practice every day is melee killing, rather than crossbow shooting!

After all, now everyone in the world knows that the bow and crossbow can only stop the enemy, but not defeat the enemy.

Today's Han army is an offensive army, not a purely defensive army of the past.

Therefore, the army may have to go out of the fortress in the future to fight a decisive battle with the Huns on the vast steppe.

If you don't want to be eliminated and become a county soldier, the only way is for the crossbowmen to have the power to charge and fight!

Walking into the martial arts arena, Zhang Weiyang looked over one soldier after another, carefully watched their drills, and from time to time lifted the stick in his hand to go down.

"When you practice, you have to be attentive!" Zhang Weiyang said loudly to his soldiers: "Don't take it lightly, because these skills can be used on the battlefield, and they can even save your lives!" ”

"You know what?"

"No!" The soldiers shouted loudly.

But Zhang Weiyang still frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied.

More than half of these soldiers were recruits, and most of them were his fathers and villagers.

The soldiers of the Zhao State have been generous since ancient times, lacking in discipline, and somewhat romantic.

The advantage of Zhao Bing is that they are brave in battle and are not afraid of death, while the disadvantage is that they are easy to get up and are easy to act righteously.

Zhang Weiyang himself had these shortcomings in the army back then, and it took him two years to adapt to and accept the order and discipline of the army, and he became a calm and calm officer.

But these recruits don't have the good luck he had back then.

At that time, the Protector Army was newly established, and there were few soldiers, and there were even fewer good soldiers.

An excellent soldier will even be personally instructed and trained by high-level officials such as Bo Shi, the commander of the Protector Army at that time.

But now, that won't happen again.

At most, Du Du Bo Shi summoned some Sima like him to admonish and reprimand.

And even he can't keep an eye on the recruits training all the time.

So, these recruits are left to their own ......

Just thinking about this, suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves outside the barracks, and a herald with an arrow on his back rode into the barracks and shouted to Zhang Weiyang: "The governor has an order, order all the Sima captains, and immediately lead the troops to Xinhua City to gather!" ”

"Ah......" Zhang Weiyang was surprised, and then immediately straightened his chest and said, "No!" Part A Sima Zhang Weiyang got the order! (To be continued.) )
