Everyone else was speechless, after all, no one dared to pat their chests and say: I can do it. Seeing that no one was saying anything, the city lord had no choice but to say, "Okay, the widow can promise you these three articles." I'll make you the 'King of Yelang', and when the enthronement ceremony comes a few days later, the ceremony of sealing the king will be held together. You can recruit and train your army as you wish, and then send all the people stationed in the Land of Sighs back to the Blackwater in a month. ”

"City Lord. Luo Ming looked at his father with blazing eyes and asked, "The city lord has agreed to the three conditions mentioned just now?"

"Well, the widow will promise you. ”

Luo Ming immediately kowtowed and said, "Thank you for the reward." He turned around and strode out.

After leaving the palace, Luo Ming went straight to the Sanmen Admiral's Mansion to find Zhao Hui.

Zhao Hui was drinking with a few officers in the mansion, and when he saw Luo Ming coming, he was overjoyed, and asked him to sit at the table, but he didn't dare to persuade him to drink because he was young. Luo Ming didn't have time to chat with him, and said to him straight to the point: "Brother Hui, I beg you something!"

Zhao Hui saw that he didn't have any arrogance at all, and he respected himself very much, so he panicked for a while, and said, "Hey, my master, if you say this, you can kill Zhao." But what do you have to say, just to put it bluntly, Zhao went to the soup and went to the fire, and he didn't give up!" "He was very loyal to the city lord before, and this promotion also lost Luo Ming's credit, and now he is worried that he doesn't know how to reciprocate.

Luo Ming then said seriously: "I am going to set up a new army now, but I have no experience and don't know how to start. Can you help me recommend a few people who understand the military and are shrewd and capable to help me?"

"I'm very experienced in this kind of thing, I used to be busy when they recruited new recruits. You're on me, you say, how many people are your new army going to recruit initially?"

"No, I can't. Luo Ming shook his head when he heard this: "You are now the deputy of the Admiral of the Three Gates, and your position is not suitable for participating in the recruitment and expansion of the army, be careful that some people in the court look at you unpleasantly." All you have to do now is refer me to a few people. I don't want you to participate!"

Zhao Hui felt that this little guy was thoughtful, and he could even put himself in his own shoes, so he was no longer impulsive, thought about it seriously and said: "I have two young officers under me, and they are up to the task. He immediately sent people to the forbidden camp and called two men. A young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes is called Liu Long, and a tall man is called Liu Hu.

He instructed the two of them: "You should follow the little prince now, and you must do what he tells you with all your heart." If you don't try to let me know, be careful that I skin you. ”

Out of the gate of the Three Governor's Mansions, Luo Ming ordered: "I will recruit 5,000 people now, the condition is that they are in good physical condition and can endure hardships, is there any problem?"

The two men scrambled to reply, "The people are poor, and if they promise a salary, they will soon be able to recruit them." It's just that...... If the promised salary is not kept, the people will run out quickly. ”

Luo Ming asked about the military salary standards of ordinary troops, and he was ready to raise them in order to stabilize the morale of the army. Unexpectedly, the two of them said no, at present, the army of the Qinglong Kingdom has not been able to pay on time, as long as we promise to pay on time, it will be attractive enough.

Luo Ming looked at the money bag in his hand, frowned and said, "This situation will never happen again in the future." The military of the whole country will be paid on time. What I want to do now is to build a super army that the whole continent will tremble for. How can we do it if we don't raise it a little? I want to double the national standard of military salaries, and I will never be in arrears. ”

He looked at the stunned two and said, "You must remember my goal: to build the most powerful army in the whole continent. Everything you do in the future must be measured by this standard. From now on, those who are not qualified will be eliminated by me, and I will not tolerate them. ”

"Now, let's go with me to Yelang Mountain to survey the terrain. I want you to build a simple barracks within three days after you have recruited them. He handed them 10,000 gold coins and instructed, "This is your upfront fee." You are going to Qian Zhuang to recruit an honest and diligent fellow, who must have a family in Black Cloud City. He is in charge of keeping accounts for our army, and I want him to keep a detailed account of all the money coming and going. I will not allow any corruption in my army to deduct the salaries of the soldiers. ”

Only those who have a family in Black Cloud City will be afraid of what their family will do if something goes wrong. Only then will he not walk away irresponsibly.

Liu Hu and Liu Long were really capable, and they quickly gathered a team of 5,000 people in and around Heiyun. In two days, they brilliantly completed a simple military camp.

Recently, Luo Ming and the third daughter have been hunting soul beasts outside, and the treasures on their bodies have been exchanged for money in the Eastern Alliance, and the income is very high.

Luo Ming discussed in detail with the two of them the overall planning and upgrading steps of the military camp in the future, and then told them: "In the future, every time a group of recruits is recruited, they will be asked to do ten days of hard labor to contribute to the upgrading of the military camp." ”

He spent most of the night personally designing a set of black uniforms, handed them to Liu Long and the others, and said: "Go back and take the time to recruit a group of blacksmiths, langzhong, tailors, and all kinds of craftsmen - remember, as long as they are skilled craftsmen, whether they are useful or not, I will organize these people and the people of the cooking brigade into a logistics force." I'm going to do a strict inspection in the future. ”

Don't look at Liu Long's thick eyebrows and big eyes, his appearance is very rough, but his heart is still relatively thin, so Luo Ming designated him to be in charge of the work of the logistics team for the time being.

Luo Ming instructed: "At present, I am not in a hurry to make this uniform, because I don't know how many sets to make, and I can't decide until after this month's training camp." "The two of them are a little inexplicable, haven't these 5,000 people already gathered 5,000 people? Why don't you know how many sets?

He did not answer their questions, but only asked them to convey an order to go down: "Everyone prepare a hundred pounds of sandbags before dawn." No matter how many sandbags you make, no matter how you carry them on your back, in short, the total weight must not be less than 100 catties. ”

The next morning, all 5,000 people gathered in a cleared field that had just been leveled. The team is very majestic, the momentum is huge, the voices are boiling, and many big flags newly made are hunting and flying in the wind. Everyone was well fed and drunk, and they looked like they had excess energy, and they were full of anticipation for the new barracks and their new life.
