Zhou Qing’s efficiency in handling things is still very fast.
After receiving Master’s orders, he immediately shuttled between the taverns and teahouses in the city, spreading the news that Lu Yuan planned to sell officials in order to attract customers.
At the same time, he also began to walk the streets and alleys, looking for people in the city who knew how to train the army.
Not to mention, in this way, the competition allowed him to find the right target.
There was a veteran soldier in the city who had retired from the county army, although he had only achieved the highest rank in the army, and he did not even mix up an official body.
But people are indeed pawns who have been soldiers for thirty years and have even fought more than a dozen battles.
And what is even more rare is that this veteran has also practiced martial arts, and has cultivated internal strength in his body, although he has only refined a meridian, but he can barely be regarded as a good hand.
It is that this person is a little old, already forty-five years old, and at the age of today’s world, he will not live for a few years.
But Lu Yuan didn’t care.
He just wants people to help him train troops, and it would be better if he could train troops while having some strength.
This veteran named Liang Hu perfectly met Lu Yuan’s requirements.
So after learning about this person, he asked his apprentice to go to the door to recruit people with a copy of the patrol officer from the ninth rank.
Although he has been discharged from the army, he is also tired of fighting.
But when he saw the official from the ninth rank, Liang Hu, who had already half white hair, immediately became old and strong, and his face was full of red light.
Without saying a word, he took over the official body, and then followed Zhou Qing to see his direct superior.
Isn’t it just to fight some rioters?
He even fought the Northern Liang soldiers, and some rabble in the area were not afraid at all.
“Liang Hu, right.”
Inside Sun Siwen’s mansion, Lu Yuan sat on the Taishi chair, looked at the somewhat cramped old man standing below, and smiled: “Don’t be nervous.” As long as you do things for me, I will not treat you badly.
The official position has already been signed, right?
Since you have taken over the patrol, then take Zhou Patrol first, go to the villages below to recruit some mountain people, and recruit them into the army.
Those mountain people are all fighting with wild beasts, and most of them are somewhat resistant and fierce, especially good at bow shooting. They have a hard time on weekdays, and many of them don’t have an identity.
You can promise them that as long as they join the army, they will give 20 taels of silver for their settlement, and then they will receive 5 taels of silver every month.
At the same time, the army also helped them arrange their identities, and when they arrived in Wugang County, as long as the bandits were eliminated, I, the county lieutenant, was in charge, gave them a home and a field, and let them have a foundation.
As for the number of recruits, let’s set it at three hundred. ”
Lu Yuan did not intend to recruit five hundred soldiers, and even the fourteen official bodies he had on hand, including Liang Hu’s one, only sold five copies.
One of them was an inspector and four patrolmen, because Liang Hu was given this one, so he received a total of 2,500 taels of silver.
Those who are not afraid of death for the sake of the future are still limited after all.
Liang Hu slowly climbed up from the bottom, knowing that those mountain people at the bottom of the society were hard, so after listening to Lu Yuan’s conditions, he immediately admired: “If there are such conditions, the mountain people will definitely join the army enthusiastically, and they all feel the kindness of the county captain.” ”
Lu Yuan smiled: “I don’t need them to thank me, as long as they help me eliminate those chaotic bandits.” Go, fill up early, we can only stay in Changning County for a month at most, and we will leave in a month. ”
“Yes, humble position.”
After taking over the military position, Liang Hu also regained some of the feeling of being in the barracks, and immediately gave a military salute.
Not to mention, being saluted by someone made Lu Yuan feel quite comfortable, and the smile on his face was even worse. Then he ordered his apprentice: “Xiaoqing, you also follow Liang Patrol to recruit troops.” Although Liang Patrol is your subordinate officer, he is a senior and has experience, so you should learn more. ”
“Yes, humble position.”
Zhou Qing saw that his master seemed to like to be called like that, and he suddenly learned.
……
With the assistance of Liang Hu, an old soldier, plus Changning County has been dotted by Zhou Qing, the recruitment of troops has been given the green light all the way.
Those mountain people in the county, after listening to the rich conditions opened up by Lu Yuan, one by one, the poor and accustomed bitter haha, suddenly saw the opportunity to change their fate, and all enthusiastically joined the army.
The army of three hundred men was filled in only ten days.
In the end, even because there were too many people joining the army, after Zhou Qing’s request and Lu Yuan’s consent, he temporarily recruited another fifty more people, making up enough officers and soldiers of 350 people.
Sun Siwen, on the other hand, also began to exert his connections and influence, and raised 1,500 taels of military salaries from the rich squires in the county.
Five years to hand over the prestige of three people, it is such a horror.
In addition to fundraising, Sun Siwen also applied to the county government for a batch of ordnance to arm the recruits. The county government instructed, and the local Hengyang government allocated and paid.
When the soldiers are recruited, it is natural to start training.
These training matters, Lu Yuan handed over to his disciples and Liang Hu, and became his own handshaker.
On the county side, after seeing that there were already 350 officers and soldiers escorting Zhou Qing to his post, he immediately gave many people confidence.
Four more people found Lu Yuan and bought an inspection and three patrol arrests, which happened to fill the 350 official vacancies in the army.
Lu Yuan made another profit of 2,500 taels of silver, counting the previous sales, and the net income was 5,000 taels of silver.
The original investment of 3,000 taels of silver was not only recovered, but also earned a net income of 2,000 taels of silver.
And just when he was selling officials and making a fortune here, the newly recruited officers and soldiers in the barracks, after training for more than half a month, finally came to the time to prepare for promotion.
So the day before the army was raised, Lu Yuan, the military chief, invited Sun Siwen and the bureaucratic gentry in Changning County to come and inspect the army together.
……
Day.
The north wind is gusting, and the flag is fluttering.
After more than half a month of stick training, the recruits who could barely distinguish the left and right were divided into seven columns and formed a slightly distorted formation.
Liang Hu and Zhou Qing, as well as the patrol inspectors who bought officials these days, wore armor one by one, holding the knives and arrows on their waist, shuttling between the queues to maintain order.
Because the training didn’t take long, Lu Yuan didn’t let them perform any battle formation changes and the like, just walked a few laps in line and shouted “kill kill kill” twice.
But not to mention, although it looks unbearable in his eyes, the many audience members who attended the conference were still shocked.
Here I have to say that the source of troops selected by Lu Yuan brings special benefits.
Those mountain people who are accustomed to fighting wild beasts in the mountains, although they are worse in discipline and experience, but the fierce courage of fighting with people is not bad.
When these hunters and mountain people who killed countless lives shouted “kill and kill” together, the audience present really felt a murderous aura and rushed to their faces.
This thick murderous aura is creepy, the back of the crest is cold, and the expression changes.
