Chapter 465: Salary Silver (Happy Ninth Day of the Lunar New Year!!)

The guards are the private property of these generals, and since they are private property, it will be very difficult for Lin Ze to deprive them. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Don't look at the strength of the guards around the generals, when fighting, it seems that they can exert strong combat effectiveness, but this actually seriously weakens the combat effectiveness of the army.

The reason is obvious, that is, favoring one over the other.

The same soldiers, the same battlefields, the same risking their lives to fight, why are we not treated as well as the guards, why is the armor on our bodies not as good as the guards?!

Once such an idea appears, it is inevitable that there will be great losses in the combat effectiveness of this army.

Those ordinary sergeants are not thoughtless robots, they are treated as waste, and they are treated differently like this, how can there be no resentment in their hearts?!

Therefore, once on the battlefield and facing a great crisis, these people are often the first to collapse on the battlefield, thus creating a very bad situation, even if the guard battalion around the general can fight, it will not help.

Speaking of which, the combat effectiveness of the army in Huangsha Town is so strong, in addition to their treatment has been greatly improved, not only can they eat well every day, but even the military salary is also very generous, there is no difference in treatment, which is also one of the reasons.

In the army of Huangsha Town, there is an atmosphere of equal treatment in the army, just like when eating, whether it is an ordinary soldier or Lin Ze, they all eat in a basin, and they all eat the same meal.

Moreover, in the army of Huangsha Town, there is no need to worry that his credit will be taken away by others, when Lin Ze established this army, he set up a very fair reward and punishment system according to the modern army on the earth.

There are many similar reasons, and it is precisely because of these reasons that the combat effectiveness of the army in Lin Ze's hands will be so strong.

Therefore, if he wanted to build Mozhen's army into a truly powerful elite force, Lin Ze had to remove a large part of the large number of guards around Jin Yuan and them, and reduce the differential treatment in the army.

Of course, there are a large number of guards around the generals, this is not only in the Chu State, but also in many countries on the Shenzhou Continent, so to speak, this has become a custom in the army, so if Lin Ze wants to reduce the number of guards around Jin Yuan, he has to think in the long run.

Lin Ze plans to first organize and train a new army, a new army with explosive combat effectiveness, and when the time is ripe, he will break up a large number of guards around those generals, or directly integrate them into the army.

Therefore, before Lin Ze's new army is trained, he is ready to maintain the status quo first.

Of course, first of all, it is possible to streamline the administration of the army and lay off all those old and weak.

Thinking of this, Lin Ze's gaze glanced at everyone, and then said: "Everyone, from tomorrow, the army will first issue a month's salary, and I will also pay the guards around you according to the salary standard of your guards." However, after the payment of salaries, all the old and weak in the army were dismissed, and each of these old and weak people who were laid off could be allocated 20 acres of land as the foundation of their future life, and then each team was supplemented with all the young and strong, and the quota was full. The standard for young men is over 18 years old, and the standard for young men under 35 years old. Also, after the salaries are paid, all the sergeants and guards must train together with the new sergeants, and those who violate them will be severely punished!"

Speaking of this, Lin Ze looked at the people below with a serious face, and as soon as Jin Yuan and the others saw the serious expression on Lin Ze's face, they knew that Lin Ze's decision was irrevocable, so they didn't hesitate and replied directly: "Inferior rank order!"

"Cheng Qianhu, the matter of laying off the old and weak will be handed over to you!"

Cheng Huai'an is a stereotypical and serious person, and he still has a very strong military temperament in his heart, he did a very good job of the previous pension, Lin Ze has not heard any complaints against him, so it is best to hand over this matter to Cheng Huai'an.

After listening to Lin Ze's instructions, Cheng Huaian stood up expressionlessly, and replied with a military demeanor: "My lord, the next officer will receive the order!"

Then he sat down with a serious face, and said nothing else.

When they arrived here, some of the officers of the other Mozhen Thousand Households Office looked at each other.

Hearing that Lin Ze was going to pay them a salary, they were secretly happy in their hearts for a while, but then after hearing Lin Ze's words, they were all stunned in their hearts, after the old and weak were all laid off, many of them had only more than ten or twenty people left, how to eat empty salaries and drink the blood of soldiers in the future?

In the end, Lin Ze handed over the matter of relaying the old and weak to Cheng Huai'an, the terrifying "man in the iron mask", and some of the ideas in their hearts could not be realized, and now it seems that everyone is in trouble.

Zhou Linhai, who was only on the side, had a smile in his eyes, his team of soldiers was all young and strong, and the number was also sufficient, so Lin Ze's order, for him, there was no loss.

Before, he was still worried about the salaries of his subordinates, but now that Lin Ze took it directly, Zhou Linhai's heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Jin Yuan was not as excited as Zhou Linhai, but he was a little worried in his heart.

Although after the death of Han Dongsheng of Qianhu, he directly put all his thoughts on how to get the position of Qianhu, the training of Qianhu, and some other daily affairs were handed over to Cheng Huai'an to do, but the warehouse of Qianhusu, Jinyuan is still firmly in his hands, and he understands that now the warehouse of Qianhusuo is empty, and it can run mice.

Therefore, Jin Yuan stood up directly and said to Lin Ze with a worried face: "My lord Mingjian, the food and salary in the thousand households can only be eaten for one month, if the adults send the soldiers' salaries, there will be no grain and rice in the thousand households!"

Lin Ze smiled and said with a relaxed face: "Jin Qianhu don't have to worry, I will find a way to save the soldiers from hunger and cold!"

"Hehe, money, Lao Tzu has a lot of money, I'm poor now and only save money, hehe........" Lin Ze smiled secretly in his heart.

Hearing Lin Ze say this, Jin Yuan sat down with confidence, Lin Ze could quietly train so many strong soldiers in Huangsha, he must have his own way!

............................

Soon, the individual began to do things according to Lin Ze's instructions.

Qiu Kai went to count the young and strong population within the thousand households, Cheng Huaian began to lay off the old and weak, and Hu Wei also began to reclaim wasteland.

At the same time, the news that Lin Ze was going to pay the sergeants stirred up a thousand waves in the thousands of households in Mozhen like a gust of wind.

Many people have a smile on their faces for the first time when they hear the news.

For nearly half a year, the thousands of households in Mozhen only distributed general food and salary, and this time after the defeat, not even a grain of rice was distributed, and the soldiers in the thousands of households were already hungry and cold, and some families had even begun to go hungry.

Now it's okay, God is pitiful, the adults above have finally paid their food, and the soldiers in the thousands of households, the gratitude in their hearts to Lin Ze is really incomparable.

Early the next morning, the weather was extremely clear, there was not a single cloud in the sky, and the blue sky looked so beautiful and pure.

However, no matter how beautiful the sky was, the soldiers in the Thousand Households in Mozhen turned a blind eye, they wrapped their leather jackets and cotton jackets around their bodies, and looked at the gate of the Thousand Households with their eyes full of expectation, waiting for their salaries...........

.........................................

The treatment of the army of Chu is still okay, if it is fully paid, the salary of an ordinary soldier is twenty silver coins.

In the era when there were no disasters, the price of grain in Chu was about four or five silver coins per stone, and the salary of twenty silver coins was enough for the lives of the sergeants' families.

However, in the event of a disaster, when food prices begin to rise wildly, these salaries will not be enough.

Just like now, the price of food in Mozhen has risen to fifteen silver coins per stone, and twenty silver coins is really not enough.

(In feudal society, there are seven or eight people in the average family, one stone of grain is equivalent to more than 100 catties, and seven or eight people eat more than 100 catties of grain a month, where is enough.) )

What's more, the salaries of the sergeants are never sufficient, and their superiors will use various excuses to deduct their salaries, and they can generally receive six or seven layers of salaries, which is good.

In many cases, Du Zhi can receive half of the salary, that is to say, a soldier can generally buy about half a stone of grain a month, that is, about fifty catties of food, how can such a little food be enough for the living needs of a family, so the life of the sergeants is actually really very hard.

The issuance of food and salary can make Lin Ze gain a lot of military and popular support, so today's food and salary issuance is Lin Ze's personal responsibility.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Lin Ze moved a chair and sat under a big tree in front of the gate of the Thousand Households, surrounded by silver coins, and the soldiers waiting for their salaries lined up outside, and finally put down the big stone in his heart.

Depending on the number of silver coins here, how can it be more than 10,000 silver coins, which is enough to issue them accordingly.

Therefore, all the soldiers lined up extremely honestly, waiting for their pay.

Seeing this, the corners of Lin Ze's mouth smiled slightly, he didn't say anything before the salary, he directly called the name according to the military register, and then personally distributed the food medals to each sergeant.

Such a crisp commander makes the soldiers below like it in their hearts, and their favorite is such a crisp commander.

In addition, this time Lin Ze directly issued a full amount of salary, so every soldier who received the salary was grateful to Lin Ze, and their family members on the side were also beaming with joy after seeing it.
