Chapter 710: Conscription

"Conscription, conscription!"

In all the actual control areas of Gaojia Village, such news began to fly.

Huge recruitment advertisements were put up, illustrating the benefits of joining the Gaojia Villagers' Group.

"To participate in the Gaojia villager group, you only need to go through experience and political review, and those who pass the customs can be hired, and you don't need to have a diploma."

"Once hired, they immediately enjoy the treatment of food and lodging, and a monthly military salary of five taels of silver."

"In addition to military salaries, there are also various benefits!"

"Don't send a daughter-in-law! Don't send it! ”

Since Lao Nanfei, Shi Jian, and White Cat have been "promoted", they can justifiably lead more troops to the battle, so Gaojiacun will of course have to recruit a wave of soldiers.

Coupled with the fact that Gaojia Village chased Zijin Liang this time, but had to return to the army because of the threat to his hometown, the management realized that the current strength was seriously insufficient, and more soldiers needed to be recruited.

However, the old revolution has encountered new problems.

In Gaojia Village, the response to the conscription was not positive.

Even if the military salary of the militia is raised to five taels of silver, the number of people willing to join the militia is still a minority.

This is probably the inevitable result under the guidance of the ideology of "I am well fed and warmly clothed, why should I work hard".

There has been a saying in our dynasty since ancient times, called "A good man is not a soldier, and a good iron is not a nail".

This idea is, of course, wrong when viewed today. But in the Ming Dynasty, this idea was deeply rooted in many people and could not be changed.

After all, the soldiers at that time were all "military households", and there was not much difference between military households and craftsmen. I don't have you when I make money, but I have you when I die.

Children and grandchildren will be despised and looked down upon.

And the people in the jurisdiction, under the blessing of Tianzun, live a happy and happy life, happily in front of the "white body", who would be willing to run to be a soldier?

The difficulty of conscription now, and when Gaojia Village was just formed, it is not an order of magnitude at all. The richer you are, the harder it will be to recruit in the future.

The conscription work was once in difficulty.

Cheng Xu sat in the main fort of Gaojiabao and sat at the table with thirty-two pairs: "Three stewards, are you sending fewer leaflets?" I've been conscripted for almost a month, and you've sent me a thousand men? With this number of people, what is enough? ”

Thirty-two: "I don't give out any fewer leaflets, and the pay is very high, but everyone is not happy to go to war, what can I do?" This is called "Love Can't Help". ”

Cheng Xu crooked his mouth: "Then what do you say?" ”

Thirty-two sighed: "It seems that if we want to get more troops, we still have to reach out to the prison after all, only the prison is the best reserve camp, this is called [another way]." ”

Cheng Xu: "Aren't there many old, weak, sick and disabled people in prison?" How many can be used as soldiers? ”

XXXII: "There is a group of young adults who have been in prison for a long time, and they may be able to use them." There are as many as 5,000 people in this group, and they may be able to give you [charcoal in the snow]. ”

Cheng Xu: "Damn, I've known you for six or seven years, and I still can't stand the smell of your words, and I want to beat you every time I see you." ”

Thirty-two: "When Yan'an Liukou surrendered to Hong Chengchou, Hong Chengchou killed hundreds of leading bandits, and then handed over 3,000 thieves to He Ren Longhe Maniac, and he escorted them into the Labor Reform Valley, do you remember?" Among the 3,000 thieves, 1,500 are young and strong, and they have been serving their sentences for almost two years now, so they should have almost been reformed, so you can go and see if they can be used. ”

"In addition, when Wang Jiayin died, Xing Hongwolf pretended to be the leader of the Liukou and ran to the foot of the mountain to turn around the five thousand Liukou. The 5,000 men were all young and strong soldiers, and they had also undergone more than a year of transformation. ”

Thirty-two Dao: "It adds up to almost seven thousand people in total, and you can [carefully select] in it." ”

Cheng Xu nodded: "It seems that this is the only way." ”

Cheng Xu had no choice but to visit Huanglongshan Prison again.

Walking into Huanglong Mountain, he looked around, and couldn't help but say "Huh", he hadn't been to Huanglong Mountain for a long time, and he was about to lose his knowledge of this place.

I saw that the mountains were full of cement roads, crisscrossed and crisscrossed, twisting and turning on the slopes, like many gray earthworms.

The hill is full of buildings, which also form small clusters one by one.

There are more than 30 houses in front of the left, gathered together, surrounded by a long wall, if it were not for the words "the most glorious labor reform" painted on the wall, Cheng Xu would have thought that it was not a prison, but a small village fort.

Cheng Xu relied on his memory to walk through an unfamiliar building and came to the office in the center of the prison.

Finally saw a kind of sorghum here.

Cheng Xu got straight to the point: "Planting sorghum, I came to the prison to recruit soldiers." ”

Gao Liang couldn't help but be stunned: "Wow, come to me again to recruit soldiers?" Are you going to pull away all my young and middle-aged labor? ”

Cheng Xu couldn't cry or laugh: "Huh? Do you still value the workforce? ”

Sorghum: "Can you not pay attention to that?" I'm also engaged in a lot of construction here, okay, you see, this is the blueprint that Tianzun gave me. ”

He took out a huge map of the entire Huanglong Mountains.

More than half of them have been circled into Li Daoxuan's field of vision.

However, the planning on the map includes the entire Huanglong Mountain, even outside the field of vision, which is called advance planning. Li Daoxuan knew that sooner or later, his vision would include the entire Huanglong Mountain Area.

All the gentle areas of the mountains that are worth using are planned for farmland, factories, residential areas, and the like, and are connected by long cement roads.

There is also a cement road through Huanglong Mountain to Yan'an Mansion.

And this cement road has now been repaired for more than half of the time, and only the last short section is needed to open up to Yan'an Mansion.

Cheng Xu looked at this picture and couldn't help muttering: "It's almost connected to Yan'an Mansion." The governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou, is now sitting in Yan'an Mansion, right? That's a ruthless person, if he finds out that Gaojiacun has objections, he doesn't know how much trouble he will make. ”

"Don't worry, Hong Chengchou is not here." Chong Gaoliang said: "The Mongolian tribes invaded the border camp of Yansui in the west, and then attacked Lingzhou, Hengcheng, Yansui, Xichuan and other places...... Hong Chengchou has now gone to Guyuan to sit in the town, and he is not in Yan'an. ”

Cheng Xu breathed a sigh of relief: "Then who is in charge of Yan'an now?" ”

"Yansui Governor Chen Qiyu." Gao Liang said: "Although this person is also very powerful, his brain melon seeds are not as easy to use as Hong Chengchou, and he has never doubted us at all." We went to Yan'an to build roads, Chen Qiyu was still full of happiness, saying that building roads and bridges is immeasurable, and he very much welcomes the squires to contribute money to help the court build roads and bridges. ”
