With a large amount of money, Jiang Qi made an unprecedented decision to start paying military salaries every month regardless of the rank of the generals. It is rare to be a soldier and get paid in the era when you can have a soldier if you have food, and at present, the Han is only a five-battalion forbidden army and a feather forest and a tiger ben to enjoy.

As a soldier, he only eats, and there is no pension for the war dead, so in the hearts of the people, if it is not a last resort or forced to survive, no one wants to be a soldier at all. This has led to the saying that good men should not be soldiers.

The number of soldiers is limited, and often during the war, soldiers have to temporarily recruit local young people, merchant travelers and other lowly people. It is conceivable what the result will be when an untrained young man goes to the battlefield.

This is also the reason why the casualties in every major battle are very serious, soldiers without long-term military training can only fight with the wind, once the main general is killed, there is no fighting spirit and the first blow is crushed.

Now Jiang Qi is ready to change this situation, to make the soldiers loyal to him, he must first solve their worries. Soon, Jiang Qi formulated a set of peacetime and wartime standards, rewards and punishments.

That is, to look at training in peacetime, to look at war exploits in wartime, of course, the standards set by Jiang Qi are not low, soldiers who have been on for two years, the monthly military salary is higher than the salary of ordinary husbands, if they die in battle, the young ones will be raised to adulthood, and the old ones will be sent to the end.

However, in this way, the expenses have become very large, and it is difficult to maintain them without strong financial support. Fortunately, after several major battles, Jiang Qi's harvest of booty was enough to sustain an army of five thousand for two years.

Soon, as Jiang Qi announced this decision, the people who were originally messing around cheered up.

The reason why these people attach importance to it is because at the same time as rewarding, Jiang Qi also issued a standard, and if the soldiers who can't meet it will get out immediately. In the face of such good treatment, the soldier is not desperate for fear of missing out. Although the training was very demanding, no one retreated.

The fighting spirit is available, although it is only maintained with money, but Jiang Qi is very satisfied. Everyone's pursuit is not the same, he does not have the luxury of loyalty to tie everyone, now that there is a brave man under the heavy reward, Jiang Jiajun can also become a real elite.

However, Jiang Qi's set is not on the stage, as an official of the imperial court, it is a felony for him to raise soldiers like this.

、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、

In the palace, Jiang Qi outlined it on an official document and handed it to his soldiers, and then asked Guan Yu, who had just come in, "How is it?" Has my brother sorted it out? ”

After speaking, Jiang Qi rubbed his swollen eyes, it has been three days since he laid down Handan, in order to make Handan operate normally, Jiang Qi only slept for two hours for a few days, and he lost a lot of weight for a few days.

Fortunately, Jiang Qi learned a lot from Zhong Xuan in the Changshe that day, and he was also familiar with driving a few days ago, and it was an end after he had just sketched the last official document.

Today's Jiang Qi is not the Taishou of Zhao County, nor is he the commander of Handan County, and it is beyond his duty to be a lieutenant to do these things.

"After several days of investigation and the willingness of the captives, a total of more than 1,700 people were recruited this time, and the rest were distributed fifty wen per person according to the rules, and three days of food left today. In the end, more than 20 people who committed the most heinous crimes were identified, half of whom had been killed in the battle, and all but one were put on death row to be outlined by the fourth brother. After speaking, Guan Yu handed the list in his hand to Jiang Qi.

"Well, is the evidence all conclusive?" Jiang Qi took it and looked at it casually and asked.

"For the sake of prudence, people have been sent to visit the people, and the sentences for some of them are too light." Guan Yu said affirmatively.

"Then three days later, let's behead the market and show it to the public." Jiang Qi picked up a brush and dipped it in cinnabar to tick a personal name, and then asked, "By the way, my brother said that there was a fish that slipped through the net?" ”

"That person is hiding at home, Yu asked the fourth brother if he was arrested?" Guan Yu asked hesitantly.

"Yes, it's from the royal family?" Looking at Guan Yu's appearance, Jiang Qi's heart jumped and asked coldly, since entering Handan, Jiang Qi has tried his best to avoid dealing with the people of the Wang family, but it seems that he can't hide.

"Yes, that person's name is Wang Bin, and he is the younger brother of the fourth brother." Knowing the grievances between Jiang Qi and his family, Guan Yu was a little difficult to talk about, and said carefully.

Jiang Qi closed his eyes for a while and said decisively: "The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, the second brother sent an order to Yide, let Yue Qi surround the ancestral house of the Wang family, and Qi personally dealt with the matter." ”

"If the fourth brother is embarrassed, how about letting the brother come?" Guan Yu said with some worry, the Wang family must be one of the largest families in Handan, if it doesn't do well, it will inevitably be talked about, not to mention that the head of the family is still his father, in the Han who governs the country with filial piety, it is a great crime to wield a knife at his father, and it is likely to attract impeachment.

"No need, Qi knows the measure, brother rest assured, brother has worked hard these days." Jiang Qi got up and returned the list to Guan Yu and changed the subject.

Seeing that Jiang Qi didn't want to say more, Guan Yu didn't talk much, he knew that although his fourth brother was young, he had always done things steadily, and he should be fine: "Why should our brother be polite, but the fourth brother should pay attention to his body, I heard from the soldiers that the fourth brother has a lot less time to rest in a few days, and he has lost weight." Is it because the first child is too busy after leaving? ”

Hearing Guan Yu's words, Jiang Qi sighed with emotion, since Jiang Chu's several counselors stayed in several counties of Wei County to act as county commanders, there were not many literati around him.

In his sigh, Jiang Qi couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that it was time to find some people to help him: "Hey, there's no way, it seems that it's time to find some strategists." ”

"Is there a candidate for the fourth brother?" Hearing Jiang Qi's words, Guan Yu's eyes lit up, after all, letting him handle government affairs was much more difficult than going into battle to kill the enemy.

"Haha, my brother wants to be freed as soon as possible!" Seeing that Guan Yu, who was originally calm, suddenly had a look, Jiang Qi laughed and patted his arm to let him sit down.

"Hehe, I can't hide it from my brother, but my brother is annoyed by the official document in his hand, and now I'd rather go into battle with a knife and kill him for a hundred rounds." Guan Yu said with a somewhat embarrassed smile.

"I heard that there is a Shitian Yuanhao in Julu who has resigned and retired to seclusion, if he can be used by me, he must be able to help a lot." Jiang Qi smiled and said, "But before I am invited, I have to trouble my brother." ”

"That's right, brother's orders." Guan Yu said with a rare smile.

"Then trouble my brother to reorganize the prisoners as soon as possible, it is best to choose a part of the strong ones to be assigned to each battalion, and the rest to be organized into two battalions, when you leave, you must leave a part, let Le Liang lead the rest, and let Li Shi lead the rest, these two people are the ones who can lead the army, but unfortunately Le Liang's injury is a little inconvenient."

"Fourth brother, rest assured, these things have already been compiled into a book, just explain two sentences, and complete it within three days." Guan Yu nodded casually and said.

Guan Yu said the truth, after several adaptations, now only need to transfer some soldiers and horses according to the chapter, and it can be easily done in two or three days. Not to mention more than 1,000 people, even more people can easily complete it according to the rules and regulations.

Then after the two chatted a few more words, Guan Yu went out to give orders, and after Guan Yu left, Jiang Qi thought for a while and shouted outside the door: "Ju'er、、、"

With Jiang Qi's shout, a person dressed as a soldier ran in outside the door, although this person's name was 'Ju', but his figure had nothing to do with the words.

The surname is Jiang Mingju, the son of Jiang Li, the leader of the Jiang family's guards, although his father Jiang Li and his uncle Jiang Da are very strong, but Jiang Ju has not received any inheritance, and he is almost as tall as the crown, and his body is only seven feet tall, which is an outlier in Jiang Qi's barracks.

He and the eagle slaves who raised the white eagles were often teased by other soldiers because they were small, saying that they were protecting their lord on the battlefield or protecting their lord.

However, although he is short in stature, Jiang Ju's martial arts are not bad, although he is not the best among the pro-soldiers, he is also ranked high, and it is rare that he is particularly clever, which makes Jiang Qi like it very much. Coupled with his father and uncle, Jiang Qi kept him by his side as a herald.

Jiang Ju entered the house and saluted and asked, "Young Master calls Ju 、、、、、"

"Wait a minute, someone will find me a clean set of clothes, I have something to do in the evening." Jiang Qi said on the desk.

"Confucian robe or military uniform?" Jiang Ju asked.

"The Confucian robe will do, and then prepare a carriage." Jiang Qi said.

"No, do you want to prepare toiletries for the young master?" Jiang Ju thought about it for the first time in half a year and heard the young master say that he wanted to wear a robe, and asked as he looked at the beard on his face that was much thicker.

"Oh, no need, isn't this very good, others will never say that I am a white-faced scholar again." Jiang Qi touched the beard on his face and said with a smile, although the beard affected his handsome face, at least it made him look more mature and more military. Then Jiang Qi asked again, "Is the third young master here today?" ”

"Since the young master dropped the third master out of Yue Qi, he has visited the market every day according to the young master's requirements, and in the morning I heard that I went to the academy today." Jiang Ju replied.

Jiang Qi nodded with satisfaction, because there was no manpower available around him, Jiang Qi sent the last available Yue cavalry battalion Cang Cao Peng Feng Jian to Linshui Temporary Acting County Commander, and now he can only transfer people in the army. Jiang Qi is also very helpless, who is sure that those county commanders and chiefs are cowards, and the Yellow Turban Army ran away with his family before he arrived.

Now this Handan made Jiang Qi also difficult, until finally he hit Jiang Bo with his idea. Although Jiang Bo reluctantly left the Yueqi camp, Jiang Xing was very happy, because he was promoted to the military marquis and took his brother's original position.

In the end, for the depressed Jiang Bo, Jiang Qi said that he was willing to take the position of a lieutenant before he deceived him.

In the face of Jiang Bo's distress, Jiang Qi wants to hit the wall, everyone else wants to be an official, but now his brother is good, but no one does it when the official comes. What is the way of the world, you have to ask for the appointment of an official, and Jiang Qi is really the first person to do his job.

However, this situation also exposes Jiang Qi's problem, that is, the generals can be described as clouds, and as for the scribes, they are 、、、、、、

Of course, the reason why Jiang Qi is in today's embarrassment is also because of the difference in the importance of humanities and martial arts in the world, the literati value the name, the samurai value the righteousness, although Jiang Qi is now famous all over the world, but he is too young, and the celebrity sees that he has no value of refuge at all.

The martial artist is different, in the world where the strong are in charge, even if you are still a child, as long as the martial arts are outstanding and the master is the teacher, others will also attach to you.

Looking at his overstretched staff, Jiang Qi thought of his friends Xun Gongda, Chen Changwen, Guo Fengxiao, Zhong Yuanchang and so on.

But after thinking about it, Jiang Qi knew very well that they would not come to help him now, and even if they wanted to, their family would not agree. The only hope is to see if Tian Feng and Tian Yuanhao can be invited after arriving in Julu.

"By the way, did you send the letter home?" , Thinking of half a year's march and not knowing the situation at home, Jiang Qi felt how unfilial he was.

"Yesterday, I set off with the things sent to Luoyang, and I have already explained that I will deliver them as soon as possible when I leave." Jiang Ju replied without thinking.

Looking at the very clever Jiang Ju, Jiang Qi thought that in a few days, he could let him go out to experience it, and he could use it in the future. Everyone is very young, and the opportunity to fight side by side together in the future will be very long, and for this group of people who are born in the family, they must be cultivated into diehards.
