Chapter 13 Jia Xu is here!

Zhao Yun shook his head helplessly when he saw it, as a military general in the army, he naturally knew about the rot in the army of the Northern Qin Kingdom.

"Fortunately, Your Majesty has already made up his mind to change!"

Zhao Yun sighed lightly, and then let the soldiers preach.

First of all, it was mentioned that soldiers who joined the army were paid four dollars of silver a month!

When the surrounding crowd heard this, there was a commotion.

Four coins of silver in a month, that year is four taels of silver, which is enough for the expenses of an ordinary family of three for a year, and there will even be a balance.

Naturally, there are many people who are excited.

But more people still scoffed at this and whispered: "It sounds good, didn't it say that in the past, you could get a military salary of two dollars a month in the army?" But in fact, who got it? ”

"That's right, I have a brother who went to a county town in the south to join the army, and said that he would pay two cents of silver a month, but he only got a few hundred copper coins."

"Don't let them fool you."

Although everyone whispered, there were too many people, and even how whispered they were fell into Zhao Yun's ears.

Zhao Yun didn't explain much when he heard this, and with a wave of his hand, a soldier immediately lifted the large box containing silver behind him.

The snowflakes of white flowers shimmer with silver light, and everyone sees them.

Suddenly, the chattering crowd fell silent, and their eyes were attracted by the white snowflake silver.

Zhao Yun said in due course: "Your Majesty has an order, all soldiers who meet the requirements for joining the army, as long as they are registered, can advance the military salary for one month in advance!" ”

"What? Can you advance a month's military salary? Could it be that it is really giving money? ”

Many people exclaimed, they had lived for so many years, and they had never heard of the army asking soldiers to advance their salaries in advance.

Now, there are more people who are tempted.

Seeing this, Zhao Yun threw out another heavy condition: "Your Majesty also said that as long as it is a soldier who dies on the battlefield, his family can get a one-time pension of three years' military salary!" ”

"What? Actually pay a pension? ”

"When did the kingdom become so generous? Could it be a lie? ”

"! Your Majesty's words, how can you deceive people? ”

"Why are you talking so much nonsense, so much silver is there, just try it."

Suddenly, someone couldn't stand still, and a strong man took a few steps forward, arched his hand at Zhao Yun, and said, "General, can I join the army?" ”

Zhao Yun looked at him, pointed to a three-foot-long black iron wood next to him, and said, "As long as you can carry this black iron wood, you are eligible." ”

Black ironwood was a very heavy and very hard wet wood, and although it was only three feet long, it weighed one hundred and fifty pounds.

It was Zhao Yun who specially came to test the strength of the soldiers.

After all, recruiting soldiers can't always be recruiting weak chickens who are powerless!

The strong man immediately walked over and carried the black ironwood on his shoulders.

"Good!"

Zhao Yun clapped his hands and praised: "The warrior has good strength, and after coming to register, you can advance the military salary." ”

"Thank you, General!"

The strong man put down the black ironwood, and then registered it under the gaze of everyone.

Zhao Yun immediately asked people to count out the four coins of silver and give them to the strong man, and at the same time said: "You can go back and say goodbye to your family now, you must return here to report before dark, if you don't come back, you will be punished as a deserter, and your family will be exiled for 3,000 miles!" ”

At the same time, he also ordered today's Qiannan City to be allowed to enter but not to leave, just to prevent anyone from taking silver as a deserter.

The strong man felt a sigh in his heart, but he still said: "Don't worry, general, I, Jiang Laosi, have never been a dishonest person, and I will definitely come back before dark." ”

Then he clutched the four coins and went back happily to inform his family.

With the example of Jiang Laosi, there are more people who stand up and are willing to join the army.

When the second, third, and fourth soldiers received four pieces of silver, the others finally stopped doubting it and immediately ran over to join the army.

Under Zhao Yun's arrangement, they lined up in turn, tested one by one, and happily took four coins of silver to inform their families.

If there is no qualification, they can only hang their heads and look enviously at those who meet the conditions and get the silver in their hands.

Zhao Yun looked at it and sighed in his heart, His Majesty is really wise, if it weren't for this silver, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to recruit a few soldiers at all!

"Good strategy!"

Not far away, a scribe couldn't help but admire the scene of Zhao Yun recruiting troops.

Although money is scolded as a copper-smelling thing, it is the most touching thing.

The on-the-spot payment of military salaries can greatly change the people's concept of the army, and even if everyone does not love the army, it will not cause everyone to hate the army.

However, he didn't mean to join the army, but after watching it for a while, he left here and headed for the City Lord's Mansion.

Soon, the middle-aged scribe arrived outside the city lord's mansion.

"Stop!"

The Danyang soldier in charge of guarding the City Lord's Mansion immediately stopped him and asked, "Who are you?" What are you doing in the City Lord's Mansion? ”

The middle-aged scribe arched his hand and said, "In Xia Jia Xu, he is a small official of the Criminal Department, and he has come to see His Majesty." ”

Danyang Bing heard that he was an official of the Criminal Department, and he also asked to see His Majesty, but he didn't dare to stop him, so he asked Jia Xu to wait for a while, and then went to inform Lu Zihong.

"What? Jia Xu asks to see? ”

Lu Zihong, who got the news, was overjoyed and said excitedly: "Great, Jia Xu is finally here." ”

Now he lacks a top strategist to give him advice and make the next battle plan!

Jia Xu is just right!

He hurriedly asked, "Where is Jia Xu?" ”

The Danyang soldier hurriedly said, "It's just outside the City Lord's Mansion." ”

"Good!"

Lu Zihong rubbed his hands and said, "You bring him to see me immediately." ”

"Yes."

The soldier was ordered to go down.

"No!"

But as soon as he took two steps, Lu Zihong said excitedly: "Such a top strategist, I should personally go to greet him." ”

Then he walked quickly to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

Soon, he saw Jia Xu at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

Jia Xu is eight feet tall, looks dignified, has three long beards, deep eyes, and hides essence.

When he saw Lu Zihong, Jia Xu's eyes were excited and excited, and he stepped forward and just wanted to salute, Lu Zihong had already walked over quickly, grabbed Jia Xu's hand, and laughed: "Wenhe, you are here, I have been waiting for you for a long time!" ”

Jia Xu was slightly stunned and said, "Your Majesty knows about me?" ”

He is just a small official of the criminal department, His Majesty is in the ninety-five, how can he know himself?

"Haha, Wen and Dacai, how can I not know?"

Lu Zihong had already thought of an excuse and said with a smile: "When I was the crown prince, all the princes of the Criminal Department were mediocre, and only Wen He could enter my eyes, but it was a pity that I was only the prince at that time, and I could not interfere in the appointment and removal of officials in the Criminal Department, so I could only let Wen He be wronged as a small official, and I thought that I would promote Wen He after I ascended the throne as emperor, but I didn't want to ......."

said with a wry smile and said: "But I didn't expect that good imperial uncle of mine to dare to rebel, and I didn't expect that he had so many henchmen in the court, and I was caught off guard and had to flee to this Qiannan City." ”
