Chapter 323 Not domineering but practical

It turned out that a group of people came from that direction with the sound of drums. Not to mention that they walked neatly, but they were wearing a cloak outside their armor, which turned out to be... ugly strips of messy grass and green. This was such a waste of so much fabric, what a waste!

Getting closer, Cao Bianjiao could see it more clearly. These people were all young people, and his intuition told him that these were eunuchs.

I saw that these eunuchs were all very serious. There were five people in a row walking over in neat steps, which was quite impressive. But this cloak looks too ugly and not domineering at all!

After a while, the new team arrived in front of the general stage and lined up in front of the emperor. He raised his right hand to his head and gestured to the emperor, then turned around and stood facing the new sergeant. There was no noise during the whole process, and the movements were consistent. It was obvious that they had been practicing for many days.

Emperor Chongzhen pointed at these people and said: "They are the leaders I selected from the inner study hall. They are the supervisors of the new army at all levels. They will manage your daily life and teach you to read and read!"

Whether it was the Ming Dynasty or before, it was a relatively common situation for eunuchs to serve as military supervisors. The soldiers of the new army are still relatively vague about the specific function of the new supervisory army, but they understand in their hearts that this new supervisory army and the original supervisory army are both supervisory troops. Therefore, they were not surprised when they learned that these eunuchs were the new type of supervisory army.

Emperor Chongzhen pointed to the cloaks worn by the new supervisors and said loudly: "These are specially customized by me for you. They are field combat cloaks for the new army..."

After saying this, he saw a slight change in the faces of many of the New Army officers below, and knew that they might be a little suspicious of the color of the cloak, so he explained: "This is a spring and summer battle. Cloaks, think about it, if you wear these cloaks and hide in trees and grass, or wear a red shirt and hide in trees and grass, which one will be easier to find? The advantage is that you are all veterans who are used to fighting. Okay, I believe I don’t need to say more, right?”

When Cao Bianjiao heard this, he suddenly realized that this ugly cloak was actually for this purpose. The emperor has never been on the battlefield, why can he even consider this?

Cao Bianjiao himself often went to investigate the enemy's situation, so he could react immediately to the color of the cloak and the emperor's words. The other officers and soldiers were all elites drawn from the border armies. They were no longer new soldiers, but they were almost the same as him. They could react quickly. They couldn't help but be surprised. The emperor had really worked hard for the new army!

Shen Yongmao, the Minister of War, didn't think anything of it, but he didn't object. Anyway, everything about the new army was handled by the emperor, and he was responsible for whether it was good or bad. There are only 5,000 people here, so feel free to play!

As for the New Army chief coach Xi Mao Yuanyi, he knew about it in advance, but he also had no objection. You wouldn't argue with the emperor who cares so much about the new army over such a trivial matter, right? If the emperor wants to do it, he can do it. At most, it will be a waste of cloth!

Man Gui, on the other hand, was promoted from a soldier and had real experience on the frontline battlefield. After hearing what the emperor said, he looked at the emperor's back, and the face behind his beard was full of surprise.

Emperor Chongzhen felt a little helpless when he heard the system prompts starting to sound continuously again. These people probably thought that they had put more thought into this aspect, but as long as people who have traveled through time in later generations have common sense about hiding themselves in battle so as not to be discovered by the enemy first, even aunts who usually only know how to wash and cook know it. Yes!

After a while, when the voice subsided a little, Emperor Chongzhen said loudly: "Your monthly basic military pay is one tael of silver, and those with official titles will receive one more for each level. In other words, the deputy commander is one tael. One tael and one coin, the captain is one tael and two cents, and so on..."

Military pay in the Ming Dynasty had different standards in different periods. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, when military pay could not be paid, the monthly military pay was set lower and lower. At this time, the average soldier's salary was about five cents. Now when the emperor announced that the least they had was one tael of silver, every one of them had a smile on their face.

"I will personally take care of your military pay and will never default on it." Emperor Chongzhen naturally wanted to make it clear what they were most concerned about. "I have ordered the Ministry of Accounts to open your account at the Daming Construction Bank. When the military pay is paid out at the beginning of the month, we will It will be issued directly to your name in the Daming Construction Bank. You can withdraw it yourself, or you can ask your immediate family members to use it. If you find that the amount of military pay is wrong, you can ask the supervisors at all levels for verification. I want to know and will investigate strictly. , there must be no shortage!”

In this way, not only can the principal of the Ming Dynasty Construction Bank be increased, but military pay can also be directly distributed to the soldiers, eliminating the disadvantages of civilian officials at all levels deducting military pay, and generals being short-changed and deducted. It is a double win! At most, the Ministry of Household Affairs deducts military pay, but with the supervision of military supervisors at all levels, it would be very difficult to do nothing.

There is no need to explain this truth clearly. All the soldiers of the new army understood it. Suddenly, these words made them more excited than a chicken blood shot. They all clenched their fists and their eyes gleamed. As for whether the money can be withdrawn from the Daming Construction Bank, we will know after the first month's military pay is paid. Besides, the emperor said this in public, is there still a problem?

"I have basically finished what I want to say. Your chief instructor will tell you the specific details later." Emperor Chongzhen made them happy for a while and then announced the end of his speech, and then loudly announced: "Now, the new army officially When it was established! Come on, get ready to raise the national flag!"

As soon as he finished speaking, music started playing where the imperial driver was staying. When Cao Bianjiao heard the sound, he turned around and found that there were palace musicians accompanying him. At this time, he heard the emperor's order and began to play music. This piece of music is not the national anthem, and with Cao Bianjiao's experience, he can't tell what it is, but it makes people feel a little emotional, and it seems to be a bit military music.

The national anthem and the national flag are no strangers to the New Army officers and soldiers of Qianqin Wang. They once experienced singing the national anthem and raising the national flag at the Ming Zhonglie Hall. Those New Army officers and soldiers who had never experienced it also saw the national flag flying in the Ming Dynasty Zhongmarty Hall. When I heard it at this time, I was a little curious and couldn't help but take a closer look.

On the other side of the imperial chariot, two imperial guards escorting a Dongchang officer holding a stack of cloth walked towards the commander's platform and stopped in front of it.

At this time, Mao Yuanyi on the stage solemnly stepped down from the general stage, walked to the Dongchang Fanzi, raised his right hand to the side of his head, then took the stack of cloth with both hands, and then turned to the general stage. Go to the flagpole in front of you. As for the factory guards, they escorted him forward. The whole process was very solemn.

Seeing that Mao Yuanyi was ready, Emperor Chongzhen solemnly decreed: "Raise the national flag and play the national anthem!"
