704 Thousand Mountains Army
Hector stood in the line and looked at the commander in front of him.
"All of them, look to the right......"
At the command of the order, Hector quickly turned his head to the right, and then quickly adjusted his position according to the position of the platoon.
Guarantee a punch away from your teammate on the right, but everyone has to shoot in a straight line.
It took less than three seconds for the three rows in front and back to become three neat straight lines.
Looking at the unconventional and neat horizontally and vertically, the little flag officer standing in front of the team was also very satisfied with this change.
The origin of these soldiers under his command is very complicated.
Some were hunters in the wilderness, others were farmers in the neighborhood, and even horse bandits in the grasslands.
There are also several landless peasants from the Sixteen Cities of Yanyun in the past, who later joined the caravan over there and came to Qianshan City together.
When he heard that there was still a recruitment of troops here, as well as the conditions for recruiting soldiers, he still broke away from the caravan that came with him and turned around and joined the army of Thousand Mountains City.
So the composition of this squad of thirty people is very complex, and it can be said that there are all kinds of people.
In the beginning, it was a mess, and most of these guys didn't know a single big character, or even left and right.
But after gathering under the banner of the Northern Cross in Thousand Mountains City, after a month of training, they finally looked a little better.
This month's process is actually an initial screening process.
In this process, unruly thorns, weak chickens with poor physical fitness, or slippery slippery heads will be kicked out in training because they are unqualified.
Because those who are not firm in their minds, or whose physical fitness is not up to standard, will not pass this month's screening at all.
And today is the day when this batch of recruits pass the screening and pass the test.
Hector was nervous, looking at the commander in front of him, today is the day of the boot camp drill.
After the exercise, they are in the formation.
And after joining the formation, he will become an official soldier in Thousand Mountains City.
And the benefits of becoming a full-fledged soldier are many.
The first is military salary, after becoming a private, his food and accommodation are all covered by the army.
And the clothes and shoes of the four seasons are in the hands of the military.
Don't underestimate these, just these clothes and shoes are a lot of wealth.
You must know that the Qianshan Army never treats soldiers badly, and their regular army has four sets of military uniforms a year.
The two sets of summer clothes are made of a cloth called cotton, blue, very beautiful, and wear-resistant.
In fact, it is the cheap workwear that Yang Yinuan got from Lanxing, which is made of denim fabric, very thick, wear-resistant and resistant.
It's fitting to make military uniforms for these big-headed soldiers.
As for winter clothes, it is an autumn coat and pants inside, then a sweater and pants, and then a woolen jacket and pants outside, and then a cotton coat.
Then there is a pair of leather boots and four pairs of training shoes a year.
Hats, backpacks, belts, etc., are also distributed......
These clothes alone are unimaginable to ordinary people.
Hector used to be a villager in a small mountain village near Qixingzhai.
In spring and summer, he would follow the people of the village to hunt in the Handa grassland, and his family would farm.
But he took the lead in a year of hard work, and he barely filled his stomach.
As for the clothes worn, except for the linen clothes that hurt the skin of the grinders, they are fishy and foul-smelling leather jackets.
He couldn't even imagine such a comfortable, handsome military uniform.
And in addition to the clothes, the Qianshan Army is easy to eat.
When it comes to food, it's even more incredible!
Now they are in the barracks, and they can eat white flour steamed buns every day.
In the morning it was barley porridge, croquettes, small pickles, and a quarter of a pickled turkey egg for one person.
At noon, it is coarse grain steamed buns, as well as large pot dishes, plus a meat dish, and generally all kinds of cattle and sheep are in the water.
In the evening, the vegetarian dishes are basically the same, but the meat dishes are solid meat.
One serving per person ensures daily nutritional supplementation.
In Yang Yinuan's opinion, this is already a meal that pulls his hips.
But in the eyes of Hector and the natives, this is already a pitiful decision.
You know, when they used to go out hunting, they couldn't eat enough all day long.
Hungry on the grassland, fighting all kinds of fierce beasts, that is a common thing.
Half of them can occasionally catch some bison, and everyone can mix belly rounds.
But most of the time, I can't get enough to eat.
What's even more terrifying is that the grasslands are often contaminated with various epidemics of unknown origin.
Every year, many friends in their village die unexpectedly due to illness.
So compared to those days of suffering, the military camp in this Thousand Hills City is simply a paradise.
In terms of food and clothing, Hector felt very satisfied.
But that's not all, as a soldier here, there is a salary of five dimes a month.
These five dimes are equivalent to half a silver dollar, which is equivalent to fifty copper plates.
Don't underestimate the purchasing power of these fifty copper plates, these fifty copper plates in Qianshan City are enough to ensure that a family of three can live for a month.
Of course, this has to be based on a minimum standard of living......
This money may not be looked down upon by many people in the city who have good living conditions.
But for a hunter like Hector, who begs for a living in the wild all year round, his life may be in danger at all times.
This five dimes is not a small amount of money anymore.
And the benefits of serving in the military are much more than that.
For example, if they go to the battlefield, the spoils they capture are 37 points with the army, and they take 30%.
And if you make a meritorious service, you will receive a reward according to military standards.
If you die in battle, don't worry.
Because the Thousand Mountains Army will give your family a pension, and if you are injured and disabled, then the Thousand Mountains Army also has the Invalids Farm.
You can retire there, and the Invalids Farm does not need to be cultivated by these crippled soldiers at all.
Captured prisoners of war were cultivated everywhere, and there were even maids who attended to the daily life of the disabled sergeants......
Of course, if you don't want to eat and wait for death, you can also apply for a job by making a report.
For example, go to Qianshan City to become a policeman, or come back to the military camp here in Qixingzhai to continue to serve.
Those who have knowledge can apply to become an instructor and summarize in writing the combat experience of themselves and other comrades-in-arms.
It was then summarized and refined by the staff officers and compiled into teaching materials.
If you don't have much education, you can also do some manual work, such as repairing the playground, or repairing weapons and tools.
Anyway, as long as you join the Thousand Mountains Army, then basically the rest of your life will be worry-free......
Of course, the premise is not to make mistakes, such as surrendering treason, betraying comrades, etc.
These mistakes of principle are a red line in the Qianshan Army, and no one is allowed to cross them......
