Chapter 53
The voice fell.

There was a burst of heated discussion among the crowd.

"Two taels of silver a month?"

"Packed with food and shelter?"

"There are still such good things in the world!"

When the onlookers heard this, they couldn't believe it.

At this time, someone said:

"It's not that easy to get out of a military household if you want to get out of it."

"I heard that in addition to training, those military households have to farm the land on weekdays, and they have to work hard when encountering wars. Their lives are not as good as cattle and horses!"

"Not only is it inferior to cows and horses, but also pigs and dogs!"

When the onlookers heard this, their fiery hearts instantly cooled down.

Yes!

Where in the world will there be pies.

Two taels of silver a month, including food and housing, if such a good thing is really going to happen, how could it fall on them.

Don't even think about it.

No matter how well written the notice is, after going there, it is just a bullshit.

When the poor scholar who read the notice heard this, he said: "It is written in the notice that after joining the new army, as long as they reach a certain age, they can retire and return home.

On weekdays, when there is no war, you can still ask for leave, and you can rest three days a month. "

As soon as this remark came out, the people exploded again.

"Eat and drink for free, you can still receive money, and you can rest, how can this be a human life?

It's just like a fairy! "

"If this is the case, I will join the new army no matter what!"

The poor scholar looked at the person who spoke: "This new army is not something you can join if you want, and you need to be assessed!"

The man asked: "Where is the assessment?"

The poor scholar glanced at the notice and replied, "The school yard in the northern suburbs."

Hear this.

The young and strong present looked at each other, and in the next second, without saying a word, they ran away.

After a while of running wildly, I finally came to the school grounds.

At this moment, the small school grounds are already overcrowded.

People are next to each other, people are crowded, it seems that there is no end at a glance!

Seeing this scene, several young and strong men beat their chests and stamped their feet in depression.

I couldn't even catch my breath along the way.

It's so late!

now.

At the end of the school field, there is a long table.

Captain Zhou Ding sat behind the long table, and while recording, he asked, "Name."

"Zhang rice bucket."

Without raising his head, Zhou Ding asked, "Which Zhang, which rice, which bucket?"

"I am illiterate, I only know that people in the village call me a rice bucket."

Zhou Ding heard this and looked up.

A man wearing a coarse vest stood there, seventeen or eighteen years old, with rough skin, slender limbs, and a thin figure.

Seeing him, Zhou Ding took a breath and subconsciously asked, "How tall are you?"

Zhang Fantong scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and said, "I don't know either."

Zhou Ding looked him up and down, and wrote down on the paper: Zhang Fantong, nine feet tall, thin.

After thinking about it, I added a note at the back, it can be eaten.

Registration is complete.

Zhou Dingdao: "Run around or lift the stone lock, choose one."

Zhang Fantong thought for a while and said, "I'll carry the stone lock."

Zhou Ding nodded, pointed to the stone lock beside him, and said, "Go ahead, lift it up three times, and it's over."

Zhang Fantong looked at the stone lock, startled slightly, and asked in surprise, "Just carry this?"

The people around were a little speechless when they heard this.

What do you mean just lift this?

Do you really think this stone lock is so easy to lift?

Zhou Ding glanced at him, and said lightly: "You will know after you try."

This stone lock doesn't look heavy, but it actually weighs more than 100 catties!
From morning to now, a total of [-] people have been recruited from the Beijiao school.

More than 60 of them passed the assessment of running laps.

in other words.

No more than ten people can lift the stone lock!

This man is tall, but weak, and a stone lock of one hundred catties may be too heavy.

Zhou Ding was thinking this way, when he suddenly heard an exclamation from beside him.

He subconsciously turned his head to look.

He saw Zhang Fantong lift the stone lock over his head, put it down again, lift it over his head again, and put it down again.

Repeated four or five times in a row!
Watching this scene, Zhou Ding widened his eyes, opened his mouth slightly, and was too shocked to speak.

Zhang Fantong seemed to be afraid that Zhou Ding would not see it, so he raised it two more times.

Then put down the stone lock gently.

With a smirk on his teeth, he asked, "Brother, is that so?"

"I'm obedient, what kind of monster is this!"

Seeing this scene, the people around were all dumbfounded.

They never expected that this boy who was eight feet tall, with slender limbs and looked extremely thin, could lift the stone lock above his head.

Is that human being?
Seeing that Zhou Ding didn't speak, Zhang Fan thought he had done something wrong, so he hurriedly said: "Brother, is there something wrong with me, please give me another chance, I will do it well!"

Hearing this, Zhou Ding almost choked on his saliva, waved his hands and said, "Don't lift it!"

Zhang Fantong panicked all of a sudden, and said anxiously: "Don't, big brother, please do me a favor, give me one more chance, I'll just go back like this, my mother will definitely beat me to death!"

"You are not allowed to lift because you have already passed."

Zhou Ding put a check mark behind Zhang Fantong's name, tore it off and handed it to him, saying, "Take care of the family affairs in one day, and come here to report tomorrow with a letter."

Zhang Fantong was surprised when he heard this, as if he couldn't believe it: "Is this over?"

When the people around heard this, they wished they could go up and give him a kick.

What else do you want!

Give it a dozen more times!
"It's over, let's go back."

Zhou Ding nodded.

Get a positive answer.

Zhang Fantong showed excitement, reached out to take the note, and carefully put it in his arms.

Then he kept bowing to Zhou Ding.

"Thank you big brother! Thank you big brother!"

Zhou Ding waved his hand and said, "It's just one day, don't waste it here."

"Next!"

The recruitment for the northern suburban school lasted for four or five hours.

Until the sun goes down.

The last person in the queue completes the assessment.

There are not [-] young adults who come to sign up, but there are also [-].

In the end, only more than 1000 people passed the assessment.

However, this figure was just in line with Fang Xiu's expectation.

After all, what he wants to train is a group of real elites!

If you can't even pass the most basic physical fitness and strength, it's meaningless to recruit.

Prime Minister.

Fang Xiu looked at the training plan he had made, with a satisfied smile on his face, handed it to Qian Haonan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and ordered:
"The recruits who are recruited will be trained according to the above, and after three months, the truth will be inspected in person."

Qian Haonan reached out to take over the training plan and browsed it from top to bottom.

The more he looked, the weirder his expression became.

A look of hesitant speech.

Fang Xiu looked at him and said, "Just say what you want."

Qian Haonan hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Fang Xiang, I think it might be more appropriate to let them practice weapons more."

From his point of view.

This training program is very comprehensive.

Physical fitness, strength, obedience, etc., are all taken into consideration.

Only weapons are missing!

No matter how good your physical fitness and strength training are on weekdays, when you go to the battlefield, you will eventually have to fight with weapons.

How can they not be allowed to practice weapons?

Fang Xiu thought for a while and asked:

"What do you think of these newly recruited people, after half a year of training, are they stronger or weaker than the Tiger Army of the Great Zhou?"
