I want to be a grandson

Chapter 434
The original joyful smile on the soldier's face froze in an instant, and then his face turned dark purple.

With his head down, he held the bow tightly with both hands, so embarrassed that he didn't dare to look at Zhu Yunxi.

"Come here, bring a high-quality bow and arrow!"

Zhu Yunxi could tell that it wasn't because the soldier's arrow skills were bad, but because the arrowheads of the bow and arrow were made of copper and cracked when they hit the archery target, so the bow and arrow missed the target.

Zhu Yunxi handed over a bow to the native soldier and said, "As long as you hit the target, you will be rewarded with this bow and this pot of arrows."

The native soldier touched the bow and arrow very cherishedly, and there was a look of love in his eyes, which he couldn't hide.

Hearing Zhu Yunxi's words, he immediately regained his energy and nodded emphatically at him.

Then he began to calm down, bend his bow and set an arrow, and after aiming, with a sound of "swish", the arrow left the string and went away.

Shoot an arrow and hit the bullseye!

"Good! Good archery! What a strong man! These bows and arrows are yours!" Zhu Yunxi patted the soldier's shoulder happily and praised.

"Thank you, thank you..." The soldier expressed his loyalty with a hoarse voice.

Zhu Yunxi looked at the expectant eyes of these soldiers and said loudly: "Soldiers and soldiers, since you have entered the barracks, you are soldiers of the Ming Dynasty! The lonely king saw it today, and there are also a lot of talents among you, and you are very loyal and brave!"

"I don't care what people outside talk about, I don't care if you are Han or other tribes, as long as you train hard and fight with your life, you will be treated equally here! The lonely king can tell you here, and you will never let you down !"

"Huho! Hoho! Hoho!..." Although some of these soldiers couldn't understand what Zhu Yunxi was saying, and most of them could not speak Chinese.

But this did not affect their understanding of what Zhu Yunxi meant.

Judging from Zhu Yunxi's discourse and attitude, coupled with the fact that someone was spreading the word nearby, and the reaction of the barbarians around him, they all knew what Zhu Yunxi was talking about.

Because some barbarians couldn't understand or speak Chinese, Qu Tao's way of training them was also very different from other soldiers.

Qu Tao divided these soldiers and horses into square formations one by one, and asked his men who understood their language to help them. It took a whole morning to let these soldiers understand what orders the different drum sounds represented.

But even so, after the training, he has become in style.

Although these soldiers have not read books, it does not mean that they are stupid. After several trainings, although they still make mistakes, they all understand what is going on.

In addition to the drums representing orders, Qu Tao also selected some people who could understand and speak Chinese from among them, and they passed the orders.

In this way, the efficiency of training is greatly improved. At least these soldiers can understand the command of the commander in time and respond quickly.

When training these people, Zhu Yunxi has been watching from the side.

It has to be said that there are specializations in the art industry, and professional things should be taken care of by professional people.

Although Zhu Yunxi has a little knowledge of later generations, it is a very headache to think about how to train these soldiers who do not understand the language.

But Qu Tao was different. He had dealt with some tribes as early as when he was in Sichuan, and he could understand some simple words, and he could speak a little.

So when training, it is much better than a general who just came into contact with.

Unexpectedly, during dinner, something happened to these soldiers.

In the barracks, bowls of food were placed on simple tables, and the soldiers who specialized in food distribution filled a large bowl and kept putting it on the table.

And these new soldiers just need to step forward, bring them over and eat them.

It can be seen from the eyes of these soldiers that they also want to eat very much. Many of them are staring at the food, grinding their mouths and swallowing.

But these barbarians were all gathered together, just stood there, motionless, no one came forward to eat.

Seeing this, Zhu Yunxi couldn't help asking: "What's the matter, why don't these soldiers come to eat?"

Qu Tao looked at them and explained, "Your Highness, usually they only eat two meals a day, and most of the time they only eat one meal a day, and they never eat at night, so they are afraid to come here."

A trace of heartache flashed in Zhu Yunxi's eyes.

What a hard day to torture them like this!

Obviously eager to have a full meal, but when a big bowl of rice was placed in front of them, they dared not eat it.

Or he was afraid that he would die after eating this meal.

Or because I was afraid of eating this meal, I didn't have another meal.

In this world, what a fucking bastard!

People who have never experienced hunger will not understand...

The feeling of longing and fear is something that a person who has enough to eat every day cannot experience.

"Zhuangzi-Qiwu Lun": "The sniper prose, saying: 'Go three times and go to the twilight four.' All the snipers are angry. Said: 'However, go to the four and go to the three.' All the snipers are happy. The name is not lost. Joy and anger are used, and because of it.”

Why don't the monkeys choose to go up and down, but choose to go up and down?

The world laughs at its stupidity.

But who knows that for a hungry and frightened person, he will feel at ease only if he puts the food in his pocket and eats it in his stomach.

Just like in later generations, annual salary is higher than monthly salary, and monthly salary is higher than daily salary, but many people still choose daily salary.

Why is that?
People who have never been poor will not understand.

But today's world has forced people to such a point.

These toasts, damn it!
I really don't know how the local people survive under oppression!
Zhu Yunxie picked up a bowl of rice, and with red eyes, he said loudly to the barbarians: "You are soldiers of Daming! You are a man of Ming when you are born, and you are ghosts of Ming when you die! If you are alive, the lonely king is obliged to feed you. Dress warmly!

In the barracks, three meals a day!I dare not say that I will let you eat well, at least I will not let you go to war training hungry!Take my orders now!Have a meal! "

Zhu Yunxi's words were translated loudly to them by soldiers who were proficient in the barbarian language.

These soldiers looked at Zhu Yunxi in disbelief, and then at the companions around them, but still no one dared to go forward.

Zhu Yunxi took his rice bowl and walked towards these soldiers.

"Quickly, follow up!" Qu Tao and Zhang Fu hurriedly ordered the soldiers to carry the food to the front.

Zhu Yunxi walked up to a soldier, pushed the bowl into his arms, and ordered: "Eat! Eat it! Don't leave a single bite!"

The soldier took over the job, also with red eyes, raised his fist and hit the left chest to show his loyalty.

Zhu Yunxi took another bowl of rice and put it in the arms of another soldier, "Eat!"

The barbarian also punched the left chest in a gesture of allegiance.

Then these barbarians stepped forward spontaneously one by one, took a big bowl full of rice from Zhu Yunxie's hand, and expressed their loyalty to him.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes were red, and he suppressed the emotion in his heart.

Get their allegiance with just one full meal!
And I just want them to have the strength to train on the training ground, fight desperately on the battlefield, and prepare for the upcoming war.

Moreover, they were selected only to weaken the power of those chieftains.

But they were able to thank themselves from the heart and express their loyalty!
Compared with them, how much I look like a black-hearted politician...

How many people in the dawn of the world are like them, and how many are suffering from cold and starvation?
Zhu Yunxi sighed in his heart, he must let the people under his rule live and work in peace and contentment, and never suffer from hunger again!
Looking into the distance, there are still many places in this world that need to be conquered by yourself!
In the evening, after Qu Tao returned home, he immediately went to visit his mother.

After greeting, Mrs. Zhang said: "Tao'er, just now someone from the palace brought two boxes full of gold. See what you can do."

"Mother, don't be impatient..."

Qu Tao frowned, and hurried to the study at home to check. What caught his eyes were two boxes, the yellow and orange boxes were full of gold.

Mrs. Zhang said worriedly: "Tao Er, I counted just now, a total of 600 taels of gold, so much was sent from the palace, how do you think about it?"

Qu Tao showed a comfortable smile on his face, and said: "Mother, don't worry, in order to recruit those chieftain soldiers and horses for His Highness, the child spent a lot of money from the family,

His Highness must have known about this, so he sent someone to send it to us. His Highness gave it to us, so we have to accept it. Let’s accept it as a child. What does mother think? "

Mrs. Zhang nodded and said: "Since you think it is so appropriate, then accept it. Your Highness has no choice but to accept it. You should thank Your Highness a lot and serve you more faithfully in the future to repay His Highness's kindness."

"Yes, the child obeys mother's instruction."

Qu Tao looked at the two small boxes of gold, and said with emotion: "Your Highness treats me well..."

Let your subordinates do things, how can there be any reason to let others contribute and pay?

Zhu Yunxi knew that Qu Tao was using the family's money to do things, and he didn't mention it insincerely after he came back, just pretending it didn't happen.

Zhu Yunxi deeply agrees with his loyalty.

But he is not short of money, this money is just a sprinkle of water to him, so why make things difficult for his subordinates.

Besides, if the money is paid by others, whose soldiers are those soldiers?

Although Qu Tao is loyal, there are still differences that should be made.

Zhu Yunxi did not immediately select the thousand native soldiers into the Shenji Battalion, but arranged them into the Zuojun Battalion where Xu Huizu was.

The Shenji Battalion is now in the stage of development. With the increase in the number of people in the future, the existing soldiers and horses of the Shenji Battalion will become veterans and become elite soldiers who have undergone many tests.

After all, many places in the Southwest adopted the chieftain system. If their official positions were too high, it would be difficult to send officials from the court in the future, so as to solve the "small kingdoms" one by one.

And many of those soldiers couldn't speak Chinese, let alone write Chinese characters. It would be very troublesome for the two sides to communicate, which would slow down the training process of the Shenji Battalion.
