Chapter 287: One Hundred and Eight Swords
? Chapter 287 One Hundred and Eight Swords
Yu Feng looked at the wooden box in front of him and frowned slightly. In the box is a head that has been nitrated, although it has been carefully nitrated with lime, but in such weather, when the box is opened, there is still a pungent rancid smell on the surface.
The head is a little hideous, but the appearance is vaguely recognizable, in fact, on this occasion, it doesn't matter if you can identify who this head is, whether the head in this box is Dou Muyun or Chi Qingfeng, Yu Feng doesn't know it, the important thing is that Yu Feng saw it with his own eyes. Looking at Mu Haitao, who was standing at the bottom, with a serious face, Yu Feng didn't think that this henchman who had been pulled up by himself would dare to fool himself on such a big thing.
In addition to the head, there is a burden next to him, and there are some seals, official documents, and other things that can prove his identity, but at this moment, Yu Feng no longer cares, he held back the stench in his nose, waved his hand silently on his face, and the soldiers on the side immediately stepped forward to take these things on the desk.
"It's all done?" Yu Feng asked.
"It's all done!" When Mu Haitao found him and said that the adults were going to summon the leader of this operation, he was really a little "excited", thinking that his courage was very great, but when he walked into the big tent of the Chinese army and felt the majesty of the adults sitting on the top, he felt that his courage still needed to be exercised.
Of course, he didn't think it was a shame, didn't he see that the calm adults with a cold face and no 'color' were standing in front of him respectfully, and they didn't even 'mix' a chair? On the contrary, he felt that he could be valued by the Lord of the Pacification this time, and he went out of this mission, and in exchange for the summons of the Lord, in the case of doing business, he made a lot of money.
There are not three hundred but five hundred flags under the adult, and it is quite good to think that a person like him can 'show' his face in front of the adult. Some general flags, maybe stop at this position for the rest of their lives, if they want to see adults, I'm afraid that they have to smoke from the ancestral tomb.
Even if it is only in the hearts of adults, leaving a slight impression, it is a great benefit for his future development, in contrast, he is much luckier than other brothers, those brothers who came back from Tianjin, stayed there for almost two years, and have not been able to come back, to put it bluntly, isn't there no one to take care of it? Even if he falls into a poor country to be a "dark pile" in the future, if one day an adult suddenly remembers, "I remember that there is a ...... named Xu Qin in the heavenly machine", then wouldn't he just turn over with salted fish?
"Your name is Xu Qin?" Yu Feng walked down and looked at the young man in front of him, the young man looked honest, and even cowered behind Mu Haitao, which was very different from the image of the killer who led people to kill a boatload of people in Tianjin.
"Yes, sir!" Xu Qin was shocked when he heard this, and replied with his head held high.
"Yes, do a good job, you have a future!" Yu Feng had a smile on his face, the kind of majesty on his body gradually disappeared from the moment he walked down, and at this moment, he 'revealed' a smiling face, which actually gave Xu Qin a feeling of "adults are very kind".
He patted Xu Qin's shoulder, took a short sword with a length of one foot from the tray in the hands of the soldiers who came over, and sent it to Xu Qin, and said slowly: "This short sword, although it is not a divine weapon, but it is also a craftsman battalion" A total of one hundred and eight swords were cast, of which thirty-six were golden swords, on which were engraved the four words of loyalty and courage, which I call the sword of loyalty and bravery, and seventy-two silver swords, which were engraved with the words of honor and discipline, which I called the sword of honor, and these were the ones I was ready to reward the warriors of the Camp of the Wind Word. Xu Qin, you are lucky, you are a general of my Fengzi battalion who has won this sword of honor. ”
The scabbard of the short sword looks to be made of sterling silver, and in the 'fine' hollow ornamentation, four large seals stand out, which looks less like a weapon and more like a 'fine' work of art.
"Thank you, sir!" Xu Qin knelt down on one knee without hesitation, and the lord gave him a sword, which was not an ordinary glory, not to mention that this sword was the first to come out on top.
"Put it on, even if you come to see me in the future, you don't have to solve this sword!" Yu Feng added another sentence: "It's just that you don't have to live up to the four words of honor and discipline!" ”
Xu Qin held the sword in both hands, his face was flushed, he had already tried his best to control his body, when he came in, he and Lord Zhenfu had passed this search and inspection, and in the future, he could actually bring a sword to meet the adult, wouldn't that mean the same as those generals in the drama who brought swords to the palace?
Yu Feng looked at Xu Qin's performance, very satisfied, in fact, this reward for the idea of this kind of saber with symbolic meaning greater than the actual meaning, he is still plagiarized from the Zhongzheng Sword of the Huangpu Principal in later generations, under the command of the principal, the descendants and non-descendants, for a long time, see if their generals have the Zhongzheng Sword awarded by the principal himself.
This method is good, it is simply a big killer weapon for cultivating descendants to buy people's hearts, and in fact, in terms of the cost of consumption, it is quite cheap, such a good way, Yu Feng doesn't think about it, when he thinks about it, how can he not plagiarize it, at the moment, the effect is still very good.
After half a ring, Xu Qin's heart was still surging there, Mu Haitao beside him turned his head to look at Xu Qin, and said, "Get up!" The adults are gone! ”
He already knew the news, even if other Qianhu didn't know, but what he was doing, how could he not know. However, in his heart, he had already had a plan, if there were only three or five golden swords, he would be a little worried that it would not fall on his head, but the adult said, there are thirty-six swords, then he has no worries at all, this must be indispensable to himself.
"Let's go, give you three days of vacation, and the brothers who are on an errand this time, take it easy in Pyongyang, there will be more opportunities like this in the future, why are you still standing stupidly?"
At this time, the military ya's "gate" issued another notice, saying that the winners of each subject of this conference can get a sword of honor rewarded by the adults themselves, and those who hold the sword of honor will be given 100 acres of fertile land by the adults, and their families will be exempted from paying taxes for 50 years.
This news set off an uproar among all the soldiers, and those soldiers who were eliminated early before also regretted it one by one at this moment, regretting why they didn't grit their teeth and hold on for a while longer, perhaps, they were one of the people who were given the sword?
100 acres of good land, this is much more attractive than silver, not to mention the 50 years of exemption from 'paying' taxes, the plot of Chinese's land has been rich since ancient times, and this tax exemption is even more eye-catching, that is, the descendants of the family are no longer good, as long as they do not sell land, within these three generations, not to mention wealth, food and clothing absolutely do not have to worry. And how many ordinary soldiers who really want to use their 'life' to win a rich future, most of them just want to be able to have a wife and children on the kang and live a comfortable and stable life, such a reward, it is difficult for them not to be tempted.
But fortunately, it's not that they won't have this opportunity since then, because there is another paragraph at the end of the announcement. These ten swords of honor are only a part, and there are a total of seventy-two swords of honor like this, and the winners of each sword of honor can have the same treatment. However, the only way to obtain these swords of honor is to rely on military merit! Only if you have military merits that far surpass those of your peers, can you enter the eyes of adults, be inspected by the military government, and finally judge whether you are qualified to receive such honors.
Of course, according to the grapevine, on these seventy-two swords of honor, there are also swords of loyalty with higher specifications and more generous rewards, but the number is much less, it is said that there are only thirty-six, and some soldiers with a little insight immediately associate these numbers like thirty-six and seventy-two with great imagination, these seventy-two is not the number of earth-shattering, and thirty-six is not also the Tiangang index? This reward of my lord is famous!
In fact, these people are excessively mysterious and beautify Yu Feng, Yu Feng was in the brain, where would he think of so many twists and turns, he purely felt that such a 'excited' incentive system was completely necessary, before deciding to cast these gold and silver swords, he even thought about what kind of medal system he came up with in his own Fengzi camp, of course, these things must be linked to actual interests, and if they are not practical, they will not play much role.
However, everything is so much that it is not worth it when it is rotten on the street, and he feels that his current strength, 'getting' hundreds of thousands of medals or something, is not practical, and he does not feel that he now has so many fields and the like that can be rewarded to his subordinates, but if he rewards a small number of them, and let these rewards become a carrot hanging in front of the donkey who pulls the mill, then it is equivalent to giving his soldiers more reasons to fight hard and earn military merits.
In fact, compared with the military rank medals and other systems in later generations, he felt that the military merit system of the Qin State was more perfect, according to the number of military merits, the title was divided into eighteen grades, each class had first-class treatment, no one should envy anyone, if you want to improve your status, get better treatment, speak with military merits, and speak with the enemy's head.
It's just that such an idea is a bit shocking to do it now, and he has to hide this idea deeply in his heart for the time being, waiting for the right time, and he believes that he will definitely have the strength to grow strong enough to be confident enough to implement this system one day.
