Song Wen frowned, and arched his hand: "Two adults, the grass people have never coveted any official position, but the brothers under his command are indeed loyal and brave, so they led the crowd to defeat the bandits...... It's just that the reward of this villager soldier can only be awarded by the two adults, so these hot-blooded young men under the grass people will be more loyal......

The two county lieutenants in the main book were extremely tired when they heard it...... If you had the money, you would have built and purged a strong village soldier a long time ago, and you still need to be cautious of you, a white-clothed citizen?

County Lieutenant Sun immediately began to play a round game, and invited Song Wen into the house to speak. Song Wen went into the house alone to invite the two adults to take a seat, and then sat down without being humble or arrogant, and slowly began to play Tai Chi with the two old foxes.

The tossing and turning is nothing more than to make some benefits for the villagers in Qingshanzhai, and don't play with idle calves and farts.

In the end, County Lieutenant Sun patted his chest and promised that there would be a reward for the victory of the bandits, and when the time came, the county government would only intercept half of the water and give all the rest to the Qingshan camp.

In addition, make up from the treasury of the county government, and make up for the Qingshan battalion, and Song Wen's appointment officials and the appointment officials of the two teams under him will also make up for it, and first make up some battle jackets and felt hats or something, and the rest will be talked about later.

The rich and wealthy people in the county town or something, add a reward of money and grain! Converted into grain, cloth, and twenty carts were given to Qingshanzhai as a reward. In addition, you can also open the old armory in the north of the county and pick up a batch of equipment and weapons for Song Wen.

But Song Wen also had to agree, after getting the salary and appointment of the imperial court, he would have to obey the orders of Taoshan County in the future, and if there were bandits or a large number of thieves committing crimes, he would have to lead the army to protect the safety of Taoshan County, and he could not shirk it!

The deal was reached, Song Wen got up and bowed, and the two adults sat down calmly and accepted it, which was a great joy.

As for whether these two goods would be wantonly looting the rich families in Taoshan County under the banner of rewarding the newly recruited township soldiers, Song Wen didn't bother to pay attention to it. You guys just play, play to the death...... From the faint monarch Zhao Ji to the six thieves and magnates, and then to these small officials and officials who are vegetarian and vegetarian, you can spoil this splendid country to your heart's content!

Anyway, in a few years, the Jurchen Tartars rolling down from the north will teach you a lesson, what is a slave in the country, what is a beast, and what is life is better than death......

A group of trembling township soldiers came out to put those terrible heads back into boxes, and then carried them to the barracks in the northeast corner of the county seat.

Song Wen's colleague Ding Gudutou disappeared without a trace, but he sent someone to send an invitation, saying that he would invite Song Wen to drink in the largest restaurant in the county in the evening and ask for credit for Song Dutou.

Song Wen agreed, anyway, he actually had a place to settle in this Taoshan County, and County Lieutenant Sun generously assigned a small barracks that had been idle for more than ten years next to the east gate of the county town to Song Wen's Qingshan Battalion Township Soldiers as a military camp.

There are a total of seven or eight dilapidated houses, fortunately, there is a broken wall, and the inside is quite clean, I heard that Ding Gudu knew in advance that Song Wen was coming, and cleaned up the inside to be Song Wen's foothold.

Song Wen couldn't help but be a little suspicious...... This guy's subordinates first wanted to give themselves a dismount at the city gate, but then they wanted to show favor to themselves. Is he sick in the head?

Looking at this small military camp, Song Wen felt that in the future, he could at least use this place to make a stronghold to do some business in the county or something, and he would not take it for nothing.

Leaving the three teenagers and a few people driving the car to clean up the house, Song Wen took An Chun to ride to the old armory in the north of the county seat, after all, it was a rare benefit, although Song Wen didn't have much hope, but he still wanted to see what was in the armory of the Great Song Dynasty.

The tall courtyard wall is often repaired and repaired, and although it is dilapidated, there is no sign of collapse. The two soldiers at the door were not young, and one of them was missing an arm, and he was frowning at Song Wen and the others.

"You're the new boss? Have you ever fought with bandits? ”

Song Wen looked at the old military leader who was in shabby clothes but looked like he had an indescribable momentum, and raised his hand to stop An Chun from scolding him......

"Yes, I am the head of the newly recruited township soldiers of Song Wen and the county lieutenant, and the hundred brothers of Qingshanzhai under my command have been called as township soldiers to defend the township and maintain stability. The county lieutenant has specially approved me to come to this armory to select some instruments, knives and guns, here are the official documents and instructions stamped by the county lieutenant, do you want to check them? ”

The one-armed veteran really nodded, and said with a slightly gloomy expression: "It is appropriate to check the official documents...... In the past, this armory was not under the control of his Taoshan County Yamen, but this was a military arsenal controlled by the Ministry of War and the Third Yamen! Afterward...... The Xiang army was gathered to the left side of the state capital to obey orders, and here it was simply thrown to the county government to maintain...... Alas, don't nag, please show me the official document, and leave a base record, just do it. ”

Is there such a play?

Song Wen has some expectations for the contents of the armory!

After handing over the official documents with An Chun and the old military leader, Song Wen asked curiously: "I don't know what this old man is called?" How long have you been in this armory? ”

The one-armed old soldier looked at Song Wen and the others carefully, and replied: "I was originally the commander of the Xiang army on the North Jingbei Road, and when I was suppressing bandits in Caizhou, I lost an arm, and I was ordered to read that I had made a lot of military merits and put me here to eat a mouthful, who knew that the Xiang army in Taoshan County had already been withdrawn, and our five old guys would become wild goods that no one wanted to see."

The other old Kuding with gray temples looked at An Chun for a while, and then nodded...... "Yes, there is a murderous aura, it seems that it is true to fight with the bandits and kill people, he is a good boy!" It's much better than the waste under Ding Gu's hands who only cares about eating and waiting to make money......"

Knowing that these old soldiers and old Kuding were actually soldiers from the former town guard army, Song Wen and An Chun had some respect.

In recent years, the military expenditure of the imperial court has been tilted towards the preparation for war in the north and the battlefield against Western Xia in the northwest...... Therefore, in many places, the forbidden army and the box army were dismantled and concentrated in large cities that were easy to manage.

The old Kuding with gray temples scolded: "Ding Gu, that waste, just thinking about deceiving some instruments, knives and guns to exchange for money!" The bandits and bandits around me, and the knives and guns in their hands are probably not bought from us for money! These forgetful eggs ......"

The one-armed old Kudin glared at him: "Go back and drink your cat urine, what nonsense?" The Taoshan County Yamen is responsible for everything they do, what does it have to do with us? Just look at the official documents and don't let them take more than they want...... However, Song Dutou can really give the people some shelter, and the official document of the county lieutenant also says that it is general, and the equipment of a hundred township soldiers is ...... You can make up for everything you see! Just don't take too much. ”

Song Wen thanked him, and An Chun next to him immediately held two pieces of silver in both hands...... The one-armed old soldier looked at the silver and sighed, and the old brother next to him immediately took it.

The meager food and salary of the Xiang army are struggling to make ends meet, and it will be even worse if it is controlled by the Yamen of Taoshan County, in fact, even they themselves quietly took out some of the knives and guns that were about to rot and sell them to the blacksmith shop for some money and food.

Song Wen's heart moved, this armory looks really big, who knows what is hidden in all directions? These veterans probably know best where to keep all the good things!

Song Wen took the fire spring liquor that had been carried as a disinfectant after An Chun's waist, and handed it to the one-armed old army next to him...... "Brother, we have all seen life and death with thieves in the battle array, no matter what the township soldiers, Song Mou respects you as a man who really fights for the people!" ”

The veteran finally grinned, took the sac and bit off the cork...... Just as he was about to speak, he was suddenly stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "What a fragrant wine!" How come you've never heard of such a good drink? ”

An Chun next to him opened his mouth and said: "I don't know, this is the purest fire spring!" In the past, the well-known Bianliang and Gaoyang Zhengdian became famous for a hundred years, and the lamb wine was sold for 300 wen a small pot! ”

"Oh my God! I'm afraid that a jar of wine will cost ten dollars? ”

"Twenty times!"
