"What? Big brother, do you really want to divide the fields for our artillery soldiers? That's not going to work! ”

In the city of Yangzhou, the artillery army battalion. On the day when the artillery army reopened with the battalion martial arts school, Chen Dexing announced his latest decision to more than 20 students, that is, the backbone of the artillery army, including the Qionghualou brothers, in the wing room that was used as a classroom.

Monk Liu suddenly shouted urgently: "Absolutely not! A Great Ming Temple and hundreds of Dao Mu are enough to be taboo, and they have to divide the fields among tens of thousands of soldiers, such things are not done by Yue Wumu and Yu Qiaoyin! ”

'yes, so they're all dead! Chen Dexing sneered in his heart, "If the soldiers under Yue Fei and Yu Yu can be one with them, will the Great Song officials still dare to kill them?" ’

Chen Dexing's gaze slowly swept over the class, taking everyone's complexion into his eyes, including Lu Shihu, and everyone had a worried color.

Chen Dexing smiled faintly and said, "How can there be tens of thousands of soldiers?" Those reformers wanted to get land in Huainan, and if they wanted land, they would go back to the north and ask the Mongols! ”

The gloom on everyone's faces was even stronger...... In addition to Song Gaozong's sincere reluctance to go on the Northern Expedition, Song Guangzong's reign was short and he was trapped in housework (afraid of his wife, and the power was lost), Xiaozong, Ningzong and today's official Zhao Yun all launched a failed Northern Expedition. By now, this Northern Expedition to restore the Central Plains has become a thorn in the hearts of the people and scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, and everyone is reluctant to think about it.

However, Chen Dexing did not mention the Northern Expedition again, and after changing the topic, he mentioned the division of fields, "In this battle, our artillery army has merit, and there are no less than 50 people who can be promoted to lieutenants and lieutenants, and there are more than 1,000 people who can be promoted to lieutenants and lieutenants, and the remaining more than 1,000 people, all of whom are utility identities." I mean that the division of fields should be a system for our artillery army, and meritorious soldiers will be given additional fields in addition to promotion. Whoever has an official status will be allocated land according to the regulations that I discussed with the generals yesterday, and no additional will be added. There are nine levels of school captain, deputy lieutenant, and utility (school captain and deputy lieutenant have eight levels), and all utility can get 30 acres of land, which is supported by my Chen family, and the utility is above, and each level increases by 10 acres. All the soldiers who followed me from the bloody battle of the river, and those who died in battle, were distributed to their families according to the rank at the time of the death. For the disabled, those with family members will be allocated land, and those without family members will be rewarded with Taoism, and they can be placed in Damingguan to live and learn spells from Ren Daochang and Liu Daochang. ”

Learn Spells...... It's not about learning to catch ghosts and draw talismans to see feng shui, but learning to refine gunpowder! This Da Ming Temple is not only a place where Chen Dexing places wounded soldiers and enshrines the souls of soldiers who died in battle, but also a secret stronghold for the production and configuration of gunpowder - of course, it is only a temporary stronghold, and when Chen Dexing's fleet can really crisscross the sea in the future, he can naturally find a safer island overseas as a fundamental base.

Chen Dexing paused, and then said: "The above are the regulations of our artillery army...... The officers and men of our artillery army are all a family and brothers! As a matter of course, we are the brothers who are the elder brothers, and there is nothing to talk about. ”

"Brother, I know that you are righteous enough, but the court ......" The evil man Land Rover also got up and gave his hand, "Brother Qingzhi, why don't we discuss it again?" ”

"Not necessarily!" Chen Dexing waved his hand and said solemnly, "This time to aid the west, our army must be the vanguard!" The soldiers in Lianghuai are defending their hometown to protect their parents, and they are willing to fight to the death, but what are they fighting for in Sichuan? Why did you die? If we can't relieve them of their worries, if the battle for western aid will be defeated or won, and our brothers will die or live, what else is there to worry about? If the western aid wins, it will be a big deal for me to dismiss myself from the army and enter the court, and go to a good student to study and take the Jinshi general exam, right? ”

Land Rover stomped his feet: "Alas, my brother is going to take the Jinshi exam, what should the evil tiger do?" Don't you want to go to study and learn calligraphy? ”

Gao Da smiled bitterly and said: "Evil tiger, this reading and learning is also a child's skill, we are a lot of age, we can't learn, and we have to go home to care for the elderly." ”

Monk Liu also said: "If the eldest brother is no longer in the army, I Monk Liu will also resign and go home to retire!" ”

"That's right! Big brother is gone, and we are not doing it...... Instead of following others to be angry, it is better to resign and retire! ”

"Our official is given by the eldest brother, and we only listen to the eldest brother!"

The Qionghualou brothers in the wing room expressed their stance one after another - only listen to Chen Dexing! It's not just talking, it's serious! Now it is no longer the Gaozong Dynasty, let alone the Northern Song Dynasty of Chengping. With the gradual collapse of the Great Song Dynasty's finances, there was no longer enough financial resources to distribute copper coins as military salaries. Of course, it is impossible for the arrogant soldiers below to go hungry to fight the Mongols. They all have their own financial routes, either embezzling land in the war zone, or engaging in various trades, or embezzling official finances and property. In short, there are financial resources that do not rely on the imperial court! The armies of Lianghuai, Jinghu, and Sichuan are already semi-independent financially!

And the financially semi-independent army will naturally not obey the Southern Song Dynasty court as it did in the past. This is the main reason why the Sichuan army leader can launch a rebellion and lead his troops to join Mongolia. In the future, there will be Liu Quan, who was pacified all the way by the official, with 15 armies and prefectures, and 300,000 households to rebel against Kublai Khan, thus opening the prelude to the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty......

Seeing that his brothers were supporting him, Chen Dexing waved his hand and shouted: "What are you talking about? We are martial artists, and now in troubled times, if we really want to be able to fight, how can the court not be reused? Now that the official family is a holy king, he will know that our brothers are working hard! Now, I'm going to give you a lesson on how to fight a water war. ”

……

"This Chen Dexing...... What a fucking thing is going to happen! ”

In the yamen of Yangzhou Fusi, a traitor really leaned on the brocade couch, and a pair of thief eyes seemed to be closed, just listening to Lu Shihu report on what Chen Dexing had done in the past few days. He still has a letter in his hand, which is to report the news of the two Huai victories to the official Zhao Yun.

"Qunyu, Xiangfu, what do you think?"

There was silence in the room, and it was only after a while that Liao Yingzhong broke the silence: "Xianggong, now is the time to employ people...... As Chen Dexing said, whether they can come back alive from Sichuan is a matter of two words! He is doing this now, although it is a bit taboo, but it can indeed motivate the soldiers to fight to the death. If such warriors are idle, who will drive out the Mongol Great Khan? He paused suddenly and lowered his voice, "As far as the lower officials know, none of the generals of the armies in Sichuan are not self-respecting!" ”

Jia Rudao sighed: "The discipline of this dynasty is indeed not as good as before!" ”

Li Tingzhi shook his head: "Xianggong, the problem now is not in discipline but in finance...... The depreciation of the meeting is getting worse day by day, and it will become waste paper if it goes down. How can the following generals be willing to use some waste paper? I think this method of dividing the land is good, it is better to fully implement it in the two Huai armies, if the sergeants have land, it is really to protect the family and defend the country. ”

Jia Rudao frowned: "Let's wait for me to enter the court before thinking about it." ”

Liao Yingzhong asked: "Xianggong, what about Chen Dexing?" ”

"Let's use it first!" Jia Rudao pressed his temple, "Who else can he use without him?" Now the two Huai armies are the most energetic for him...... I used this for a while, and when I retreated from the north, I gave him a lifetime of wealth, and I was afraid that he would not hand over the military power? ”

Liao Yingzhong said with a smile: "When the time comes, I can't help him!" ”

Li Tingzhi asked: "Then do you want to hand over Daming Temple to that Taoist priest?" ”

Jia Rudao patted the brocade couch: "Give it to him!" Isn't it just a ruined temple? The monk has already run out, so it doesn't hurt to change to a Taoist temple...... Give the Taoist priest another 200 Dao Zhang, and that's it. I don't believe it, just a martial artist, can still get out of my palm? ”
