Chapter 1415 Jinwen City (6)

They were so angry that they only blew upwards, but most of them dared not speak out, but some strong men who were frightened and prepared to resist, after seeing the golden yellow, were like everyone else, without any grievances. It disappeared, and the pain on my body was also forgotten, only the movement of staring and swallowing saliva was left.

The guards in charge of distributing the gold coins counted a pile and put them in the bag according to the roster, while the immediate superiors of the strong men returned to the team with the bags and began to distribute them one by one by hand.

There are two guards each, three captains, and five captains.

Originally, Zhao Hu wanted to pay salaries according to the army's regulations, but Zhou Wen reminded him: "My lord, they all have no military status. If you really pay salaries according to the army's regulations, be careful that you will cause trouble. Anyway, this place is poor, and these people Soldiers are your personal soldiers, just give them whatever you want."

Because of Zhou Wen's reminder, this kind of treatment as a first-class soldier appeared as soon as he joined the army, but compared with soldiers, those officers only had one or two more job allowances.

I don't know the details, but the little soldiers holding the gold coins didn't act like Zhao Hu was worried about protesting at all. They all salivated, licked*bited the gold coins, and then tightly held them in their arms and looked around nervously. This time they were not excited The yelling was not for fear of being whipped, but for fear of confiscating gold coins.

However, their eyes quickly focused on the corporal leader, and the corporal leader's gaze was on the small captain, and they were all annoyed in their minds: "Damn, I wish I had known that I was desperate just now and put in a little more effort! It's my own, so I can get one more gold coin! Especially the captain, a total of five gold coins!"

Those strong men over the age of 25 are all looking at these young men with red eyes at this moment. They are suffocating in their hearts now, because they only have one gold coin in their hands, and the captain only has two.If Zhao Hu hadn't just said that the auxiliary soldiers could join the guard if they performed well, they would have rebelled long ago.

Sensing the looks of the auxiliary soldiers, Zhao Hu smiled: "From now on, today will be the payday of each month, but before the monthly payday, there will be an assessment. The qualified auxiliary soldiers will enter the guard team, and the unqualified guard team will be demoted. As an auxiliary soldier." As soon as Zhao Hu said this, the atmosphere on the scene suddenly froze, followed by a burst of rapid breathing.

Seeing that the strength of the strong men had been aroused, Zhao Hu said with a smile: "Okay, since the camp is not yet ready, you can only live at home temporarily, now remember the appearance of your partners and bosses, and disband."

"Salute!" The 32 guard officers immediately stood at attention and saluted. After the salute, they immediately turned around and raised their whips and shouted: "You bastards! The commander said that you should stand at attention and salute when you are disbanded! You will not be punished now, tomorrow six Come to the school grounds to gather all of them! I will show him off if he is late! Disband now!"

The personal guards were all brave and brave in the southeast peninsula, and they advocated that "discipline is drawn from the whip". Let them train these strong men. It seems that the strong men will have a hard time in the future.

Some of the startled young men ran away, while others stood at attention and saluted. Anyway, they were noisy.The guard was so angry that he yelled again.

The gate opened, and the people who looked outside saw those strong men coming out, and they couldn't help saying with a sigh of relief: "Come out, finally come out, I thought they were sold."

From these words, we can know that the people's confidence in Zhao Hu is not very high, but when these strong men flaunted their gold coins, some generous strong men proudly clamored for treats, which immediately changed the public's view of Zhao Hu.As the noise faded away, the gate of the former county governor's mansion became quiet again.

An officer who had been on the sidelines immediately ran back to the regiment headquarters, where the old regiment captain and other major officers had already gathered here.

"Sir, Zhao Hu has recruited more than [-] people, surpassing our regiment! And his subordinates also said that they will continue to recruit the next day!" The officer said eagerly.If Zhao Hu recruited all the strong men, his alliance might lose control of Jinwen City.

"Well, how many people did Mark recruit?" The old colonel didn't respond to this, but asked instead.

The officer was stunned for a moment and then shook his head: "No one. It seems that all the strong men are attracted by Zhao Hu. They know that they can't recruit at this time, so they temporarily stop recruiting." Can't help but continued: "What should we do? Let Zhao Hu continue to recruit strong men?"

The boss lieutenant colonel smiled and said: "You don't have to be so nervous, so what if Zhao Hu recruited 1 people? Are there any weapons to equip them? You know, we don't even have [-] weapons in stock.

"Want to buy? Buying weapons other than those of the personal guards without a military license is a conspiracy. He would not be so stupid. And troops without weapons are not as good as rogues, so Ann, he is willing to spend his own money to support them." He will raise it."

"Don't pay attention to Zhao Hu's affairs, let him toss around, anyway, he won't get anywhere. Let's discuss where to set up an ambush to lure the bandits down the mountain." The second lieutenant colonel said.

Hearing this, the officer thought that Zhao Hu had sent 260 excellent war horses, so he didn't say a word.

The third lieutenant colonel suddenly laughed and said: "I don't know what the bandits are doing. When they saw the horses, it was almost like a fly seeing blood. They rushed over desperately, and even gave their lives to protect those horses. They are so nervous about the horses. What are you doing? In addition to transporting goods in the mountains and forests, using them to form cavalry is simply suicide."

The boss laughed and said: "Don't worry about it, they are hungry for war horses, that's even better. If we take out ten war horses, we should be able to lure hundreds of bandits down the mountain. This will not only facilitate the extermination, but also allow these horses to be divided into Dozens of uses."

"Well, my subordinates think that it is better to set up an ambush here in Shanmu Village. According to the information about the victims of the people who went out, it is speculated that there is a Shanyue tribe active near Shanmu Village. There are at least a thousand Shanyue tribes living together. If this Shanyue tribe is wiped out If it falls, it will be enough for the soldiers below us to be promoted to a higher level." The second lieutenant colonel pointed to the map on the desktop and said.

The old colonel looked at the map, glanced at everyone and asked, "What do you think?"

Most of the officers nodded, only the boss thought for a while and said, "Yes, this place is overgrown with weeds and surrounded by dense forests, which is convenient for us to ambush, but we must be careful to be discovered by bandits in advance."

"We can first send people to bluff on the other side to attract their attention, and then we take the opportunity to lurk, and when the horses are wandering around there, those bandits will definitely rush down. But..."

The third lieutenant colonel sighed and continued: "It's not that I belittle myself. Although we can win one-on-one with bandits, it will be difficult to win. This ambush requires at least three brigades to reduce our losses. Others need at least two brigades, so we won’t have anyone to defend the city.”

The boss laughed and said: "Haha, third child, you forgot the existence of Zhao Hu? This guy has recruited so many people, he can't do field battles, but at least he can defend the city. Don't forget that those bandits don't have siege equipment. Throwing stones and shooting arrows from the city can drive them away, such a trivial matter can be done by ordinary people, let alone these organized recruits."

Hearing this, the third child patted his head and smiled: "Hey, I almost forgot, I didn't expect Zhao Hu to have such a use, in the future we don't have to send people to defend the city, our alliance can also go around freely Those bandits!"

What the youngest said made all the officers present nod and said yes, even if they went out to fight in the past, at least one brigade had to stay behind. How much military merit has been lost by staying here. Now that there is a dedicated city guard, I don’t have to stay in the city .

"Well, in that case, don't we have to wait for Zhao Hu's troops to be a little more capable before sending out troops?" The second child said with a frown.

The old colonel who didn't talk much suddenly smiled and said: "It's okay, anyway, we need to wait for a while before we can find out the environment there, and at the same time let a horse go there every few days to dispel the doubts of the bandits. If it takes time, we can afford it.”

Hearing that the joint captain had made such a decision, everyone calmed down.

After Zhao Hu disbanded the troops, he said to Zhou Wen and Sun Jie, "Send someone to find craftsmen to repair this place, at least prepare housing for 5000 people."

"5000 people!" Both Zhou Wen and Sun Jie were shocked, and Zhou Wen couldn't help reminding: "My lord, it's not good to be too rampant."

"Hehe, half of them are auxiliary soldiers, who are responsible for the trivial affairs of the combat troops. The real combat troops are less than one regiment." Zhao Hu explained.

"Oh? Specially responsible for the daily trivial affairs of the combat troops? Isn't it possible for such a free-handed army to be a full-time combat soldier? My lord, this can be promoted in Mingyue City." Sun Jie quickly suggested.

"Battler? Auxiliary soldier? Hey, it's really an appropriate name." Zhao Hu nodded and said, "Well, you pass this back to Mingyue City and let them change it."

"My lord, we don't have a unified uniform. Do you want to request it from the wing headquarters? Besides, we need to purchase a batch of daily necessities." Zhou Wen will naturally pay attention to these details.

"Well, I still need some weapons and equipment. Let's request these supplies from the Wing Team Headquarters." Zhao Hu nodded.
