vs 145 Buying hearts and minds
"Childe go in. Bao Yi walked from behind Long Feitian. He said softly, as if he was infected by the atmosphere in front of him, and his tone was also filled with a sense of sadness.
Nodding, Long Feitian stepped in, and as soon as he saw his arrival, Kang Qichang walked over, gave a military salute and said, "My lord, everyone is ready, just waiting for you." ”
"I'm sorry, I'm late. Long Feitian nodded, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "We can still stand here, this is our luck, but at the same time, we will also continue to take on the mission that those brothers who died in battle failed to complete, I won't say more nonsense, first of all, we salute those brothers who died in battle, let them rest assured, we will definitely guard the gate of Nansheng." ”
As he spoke, Long Feitian picked up a wine jar, slapped open the seal, poured a bowl, raised it above his head with a serious face, and then slowly poured it in front of him.
"To the brothers. Everyone roared, and they all poured a bowl of wine, like a dragon flying into the sky, held it high above their heads, and then slowly fell down.
"How can I miss my grandson Chi, brothers. A powerful voice came from outside the door, and Gongsun Chi walked in with a serious face, picked up a wine jar, poured a bowl, and sprinkled it on the ground.
"Although you will be under the hands of the Dragon brothers in the future, my grandson Chi will never forget you brothers who were born and died with me. Gongsun Chi said, poured another bowl, raised it to everyone, and said, "I salute everyone with a bowl." ”
"Captain. Everyone poured wine, picked it up at Gongsun Chi, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Let's give the old one another bowl. Ah Dan stood up and said to Bao Yi: "If it weren't for Bao Lao, not only would we not have this brilliant victory this time, but we would even lose our lives." ”
"Respect for the elderly. Everyone raised the wine bowl, and Bao Yi also smiled, took a wine bowl handed by Kang Qichang, and said: "I also respect everyone, your fearlessness let me know the strength of Sergeant Nansheng." ”
Everyone was killed together, except for Kang Qichang, the only remaining squadron leader, Da Bald, also stood up and said to Long Feitian: "Although I can't serve under the adults in the future, I believe that everyone will fight the enemy together in the future, and I, Li Daying, also respect the adults." ”
"Good. Long Feitian was also refreshed, picking up the wine bowl and taking a sip of the big bald head.
Afterwards, all the sergeants saluted Long Feitian with a bowl, and after a few bowls, everyone's faces were a little red, and Long Feitian took out a big box from the illusion ring.
Under the puzzled gaze of everyone, Long Feitian opened the box, and a dazzling golden light burst out, making the entire military camp shine with golden light at this moment.
Everyone puffed up their eyes, looked at the gold coins in the box, and swallowed their saliva, although the soldiers were useless in holding gold coins in the barracks, there was no place to sell things here, and they couldn't produce them in normal times, but this did not mean that the gold coins were useless to them.
They have families, and some of them come to serve as soldiers, but they are forced to be unable to live, so they take this path, just because the salary of being a soldier is high, and the pension after death is also good, which is stronger than those mercenaries who seem to be free.
In addition, as long as they have made enough military achievements, they can also apply for retirement, although this opportunity is very small, but it is also a hope, and they have to use gold coins after retirement.
"This is 50,000 gold coins, which was awarded to me by the empire for this great war, but I deserve it, because I know that without your brothers, I can't do it alone, and I think it should belong to all brothers. Long Feitian looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "So I decided to take him out and distribute it to everyone." ”
"Twenty for each of the brothers who died in battle, and ten for each of the brothers who were alive. Saying that, Long Feitian stepped forward first, took out ten gold coins from it, and said with a smile: "This is my share, I'm not welcome." As he turned his head, he looked at Kang Qichang and said: "You will preside over the distribution of the rest, I have already told the marshal, give you a half-moon vacation, and those brothers who died in battle will be distributed to their families together with the Imperial Pension Group." ”
"Guaranteed to get the job done. Kang Qichang saluted respectfully to Long Feitian, and the other sergeants were no exception, all of them saluted Long Feitian, at this time, their eyes were red, their eyes were full of gratitude, and their hearts were more and more admired for Long Feitian.
Let's take Gongsun Chi next to Long Feitian as an example, he also got a reward of 50,000 gold coins, but he didn't take out a single one.
Someone once said that a man is the most iron-clad in three things, one of which has been shot together, the second has been prostituted together, and the third has been divided among the spoils.
"Okay, everyone has received the gold coins and has a good drink, there is only one hour, after an hour everyone must rest, and tomorrow you have to continue training. Long Feitian waved his hand to everyone, and walked to the side with Gongsun Chi, "Brother Gongsun, I heard that you were transferred away by the marshal?"
"It's not a transfer. Gongsun Chi smiled and said: "The marshal promoted me to commander, but there were no soldiers for me, I had to recruit them myself, originally I still had Kang Qichang to help, but now Kang Qichang is also being asked to leave by you, but this is okay, I have not rested for several years in this Gangsuo City, I have been tense and nervous, I am really tired, I can also take advantage of this time to take a good rest." ”
"Don't underestimate me, I also worked hard step by step from the bottom back then, recruiting and training recruits is not a matter of one or two times, within a year, I will definitely pull back an army that is not weaker than anyone else, Brother Long, you have to come on, then we will have a friendly match, don't lose to me, of course, the two of us can't participate, Bao Lao can't participate, it's completely a sergeant competition. ”
"Okay, then we'll have to compare ourselves. Long Feitian laughed, he felt from Gongsun Chi's tone that his mood was not sad because he was leaving Gangsuo City, but there was a trace of relaxation.
But it's right to think about it, in this Gangsuo City, you have to worry about the attack of the Gulin Empire at any time, and your nerves have been tense, and for a few years, no one will be able to stand it.
Thinking of Gongsun Chi's promotion, Long Feitian thought of Kang Qichang, Ah Kang and others, all the officers were rewarded for the victory of this war, but unfortunately Kang Qichang and Ah Kang could not be promoted because of their lack of strength.
After all, the army is a place where strength is respected, no matter how effective you are, even if you have smart wisdom, if you don't have strength, the people below may not be able to obey you.
